Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 485 The General's Daughter vs. the Deposed Crown Prince with No Heir (22)

Inside General Shen's mansion.

Shen Qingyi learned that her father had betrothed her to a lowly centurion, who was far away on the border!

Her eyes widened in anger, and her once beautiful face became extremely distorted.

Shen Qingyi became increasingly suspicious, especially regarding the palace banquet. How could she have been poisoned? It should have been Shen Shuyi. Could it be that Shen Shuyi had used a scheme?
The thought of this possibility made her unable to contain herself and she fled the mansion. Even if she were to die, she wanted to die knowing why!

Shen Qingyi most wanted to see Zhao Qiyu. She finally arrived at the gate of the Fourth Prince's mansion and was almost chased away by the guards. Just then, she ran into Zhao Qiyu, who was about to leave.

"What are you doing here?" Zhao Qiyu looked at her coldly.

Shen Qingyi had been crying and begging him, but in this situation, the most important thing was to stay in Chang'an.

She knew that Zhao Qiyu cared a lot about her chastity, and that he must be harboring resentment at this moment.
Shen Qingyi calmed down and clutched her stomach, saying, "Your Highness, I was poisoned by thieves at the palace banquet. I am also a victim."

“Now that I am pregnant with your child, I do not ask to be your concubine anymore. I only ask to stay in Chang’an and by Your Highness’s side to give birth to the child.”

"You're pregnant?!" Zhao Qiyu was shocked, referring to that time on the pleasure boat.
He immediately summoned the physician from the Prince's residence to take Shen Qingyi's pulse. The physician looked uneasy and dared not say anything unnecessary, only saying, "She should be pregnant, but it's still early in the pregnancy."

Seeing Zhao Qiyu's stunned expression, Shen Qingyi's thoughts shifted. "Your Highness, I no longer seek any title or honor. I only wish to stay by your side."

"You know, the person I've always loved is you."

"I was indeed poisoned at the palace banquet."

Zhao Qiyu's expression softened slightly; he was well aware of Shen Qingyi's feelings for him.

But now that he is about to marry the princess, his mother has repeatedly warned him that he must not let Shen Qingyi enter the family.

But then she became pregnant again.
"Go back first, and I'll make further plans." Zhao Qiyu's mood fluctuated whenever he thought of Shen Qingyi and Shen Feng rolling around together.

Shen Qingyi dared not press the matter any further, and could only cry as she said, "My father wants to marry me off from Chang'an City. Please, Your Highness, save my life."

"Your crying is giving me a headache." Zhao Qiyu couldn't be completely heartless towards Shen Qingyi, after all, they had feelings for each other.

Shen Qingyi sobbed uncontrollably, "I know you've already given up on me, but what can I do?"

Zhao Qiyu remained silent. It was impossible for him to let a woman who had been with another man be his wife, and he didn't even want to see her every day.

"You go back to the General's Mansion first. I will take care of the rest."

"Can I really stay in Chang'an?" Shen Qingyi asked him, tears streaming down her face.

Zhao Qiyu couldn't bear to look at her any longer and simply nodded.

Shen Qingyi dared not linger any longer and had no choice but to leave the Prince's Mansion. As soon as she stepped out, she headed straight for Tingyu Villa.

At Tingyu Villa, Shen Shuyi was trying on her wedding gown for her wedding day. Standing in front of the bronze mirror, the red gown made her look even more beautiful and radiant.

He seemed to be surrounded by a layer of light.

Green Willow smiled and said, "Miss, you are so beautiful."

"You will be the most beautiful bride!"

"Did you know that His Highness has laid out a red carpet all the way from Prince Su's Mansion to Tingyu Villa! The roadside is also lined with peach blossoms, which are in full bloom and look especially beautiful!"

Shen Shuyi smiled, her eyebrows curving upwards. She hadn't expected him to be such a romantic person.

She changed out of her wedding robes, and a moment later someone outside reported to her.

"Young Miss, the Second Young Miss requests an audience. Will you grant her an audience?"

Shen Shuyi: "Let her in."

As Shen Qingyi entered the house, she saw the stunningly beautiful young woman in the courtyard. Looking at her increasingly radiant face, she felt an intense surge of jealousy.

"Shen Shuyi, did you tamper with the palace banquet? Did you poison me?"

Shen Shuyi took a sip of tea and said sarcastically, "Why don't we have the people from the Dali Temple come and investigate who poisoned it?"

Shen Qingyi looked depressed. "It must have been you!" "It must have been you!"

"So what if it's me?" Shen Shuyi said coldly, "I'll make you and your daughter taste the bitterness of despair."

She added insult to injury: "It was also my idea to marry you off out of Chang'an."

Seeing her smiling face, Shen Qingyi wanted nothing more than to tear her to pieces. Her eyes were filled with malice. "Shen Shuyi, don't be so smug. Sooner or later, I will trample you under my feet."

"You're just marrying a deposed crown prince, and a deposed crown prince who can't even have sex. How long can you be so smug!"

As long as she can keep Zhao Qiyu in check, she will have a way to deal with Shen Shuyi once Zhao Qiyu becomes the crown prince.

Shen Shuyi glanced at her and said, "Shen Qingyi, all you can do now is talk the talk."

"Do you think Zhao Qiyu can help you?"

"Have you overlooked someone?"

"Queen."

She successfully observed that Shen Qingyi's face had darkened.

In the palace, news of Shen Qingyi's meeting with Zhao Qiyu was quickly reported to the Empress. The Empress ordered Zhao Qiyu not to leave the palace before his marriage, her eyes filled with coldness.

"A withered flower and a fallen willow dares to defile the royal bloodline!"

The old nanny beside her comforted her, "Your Highness, please rest assured. This old servant heard that General Shen has already betrothed Shen Qingyi to a mere centurion. She will soon be married off and leave Chang'an City, and will never be able to see His Highness again in this lifetime."

The Empress snorted coldly, "His Majesty was only giving Shen Jing face; otherwise, given the circumstances that day, it would have been impossible for the Shen family to escape unscathed!"

Shen Qingyi returned to the General's Mansion in a daze, but she would never give up. Just as she went to the side courtyard to find her mother, the steward hurriedly brought people to restrain her hands and feet and take her away.

"what are you doing?"

"You filthy lackeys, how dare you kidnap me!"

"My parents will not let you get away with this!"

The steward sneered, "The fact that Lin Shi plotted to harm the mistress has been exposed. The general was furious and was about to sell her off when she was taken away by the Dali Temple. She is probably already in jail, awaiting execution in the autumn!"

Shen Qingyi was locked in the woodshed. Not long after, a nanny came in carrying a food box and looked down at her.

"Miss Shen, this is the soup Her Majesty the Empress has bestowed upon you. Drink it quickly."

"What is this?" Shen Qingyi shook her head frantically. "I won't drink it, I won't drink it!"

The old woman didn't want to waste words with her, so she had someone hold her down, pry open Shen Qingyi's mouth, and force-feed her the safflower soup.

"Accept your fate, Miss Shen. Her Majesty the Empress will never allow you to get close to His Highness again."

Shen Qingyi collapsed to the ground, and the door to the woodshed was closed again as everyone left.

She couldn't accept her fate; there was still hope for her. She had to find a way, but soon a sharp pain in her abdomen made it impossible for her to think.

……

At this moment, Shen Shuyi felt exhilarated after avenging the original owner of the body, and in her joy, she wanted to have a little drink.

The peach blossom wine of this era tastes quite good. It is brewed with spring peach blossoms, has a pink color, and carries a light peach blossom fragrance. Drinking it is like being in a peach blossom dream.

Shen Shuyi propped her head up and saw a tall, straight man in a black brocade robe walking towards her.

She rested her face on her arm, looked up and asked with a smile, "Your Highness, what brings you here?"

Am I dreaming?
