Chapter 911: Chapter 911 – One Person Takes up Everyone’s Love
Looking at the sealed letter, Feng Tianlan let Shui Jue send it out. It seemed to be the first letter she had received from Mobai since they were in a relationship. She must keep it well. When she was older and took it out to look at it again, she would definitely feel how childish this was at this time.
“Your Highness, aren’t you going to deal with the lies and slander circulating outside?” Shui Jue could not help but ask. It had been several days, and Jiang Ying had come to the door to make a fuss again. He really put on a brilliant performance acting like an infatuated man.
Feng Tianlan looked out of the window and said indifferently, “There’s no need to be concerned about him. Let them make noise. You just carry out properly what I have instructed you to do.”
Shui Jue answered “yes,” and then retreated.
In the East Palace, Shen Yunya took tiny sips of medicine to help prevent miscarriages while she listened to her trusted aide report matters outside the palace. Her lips curled into a sneer as she said, “This is only the beginning.”
What she wanted was for Shen Qingdai to find herself utterly isolated!
Putting down the spoon, she put her hand out and placed it on the back of her trusted aide’s hand as she said, “Leave and go to Zhaoyang Palace.”
When Xi Lin heard that Shen Yunya was seeking an audience, she subconsciously wanted to refuse to see her. But she thought maybe this was an opportunity, so she straightened herself out, sucked on a sour plum, and came out to the main hall.
“Common Consort Ya, why are you not resting in the palace while pregnant? Why are you coming to me instead? I cannot be held accountable if something were to happen to you,” said Xi Lin as she leaned languidly against the chair. She looked a little weak, which was no different than her usual demeanor.
Shen Yunya saw Xi Lin’s appearance. If she had not known before, she really would not have been able to tell that she was pregnant because Princess Zhaoyang had always been languid from a young age, as if she were lethargic.
“I heard that Princess and Big Sister fought. We should not argue over small things when we have all known each other for so many years. At least choose to trust Big Sister.” Shen Yunya sat down without an invitation. She was currently pregnant, which made her precious.
Xi Lin glanced at her. She sneered and snorted, “Trust? She is a selfish person. How can I trust her? I was already lenient with her by only falling out with her.”
Shen Yunya looked up at Xi Lin and her eyes reddened. Her languid look now seemed angry. She smirked on the inside, but her face looked sorry as she comforted Xi Lin, saying, “Princess, don’t be angry. Big Sister has always been beautiful from a young age. She received the love of Big Brother Jin, Brother Ying, and He Lian. Now she is also familiar with the Demon King. It is all understandable.”
Shen Qingdai was good-looking from an early age. She had also received the love, care, and concern of all three men since she was young, all while Shen Yunya and Xi Lin were snubbed. Xi Lin was the Princess, so she was not really slighted, whereas Shen Yunya suffered the most rebuffs.
Come to think of it, one of them was the useless but beautiful Shen Qingdai and the other was the high-born but lazy Princess Zhaoyang. They were not as gentle, pleasing, kind, and generous as her. So, why were they doted on by those three talented men?
In particular, Shen Qingdai, who was clearly useless. And yet, she alone took up everyone’s love. It was the most detestable.
Therefore, Shen Yunya could not bear it any longer, which led to the things that happened after.
Xi Lin snorted coldly. She apparently did not take it too well. She said, “She’s just relying on her looks alone. Who would like her without her looks?”
But she had heard her Imperial Brother say before that, during the time Tianlan and the Demon King got to know each other, she wore a sinister scar on her face for quite a while. She was very ugly and fierce-looking. But the Demon King was still devoted to her.
For Tianlan to be able to conquer the Demon King with such an appearance, she certainly had her own charm.
Moreover, Shen Yunya was really ridiculous. She was comforting Xi Lin on the surface of things but every word in her speech was calculated to provoke her resentment toward Tianlan.
