Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 48 Routine 2
As soon as Shen Wanqing finished speaking, Qiu Zhu who was standing aside frowned slightly.But seeing that his lady didn't show any displeasure, she stood silently by the side without making a sound.

"You can't tell the second sister about this. It's only interesting to let people know the gift on the spot, isn't it?"

Shen Wanyu blinked her eyes with disapproval on her face.But he sneered in his heart, knowing that she came for a purpose.It turned out that he was here to trick her.

"The eldest sister will tell the second sister secretly, and the queen mother will not know."

Shen Wanqing was not at all embarrassed by her refusal, but begged like a coquettish younger sister.

Shen Wanyu tilted her head, as if thinking about whether to tell her.Although the slightly immature delicate face showed a tangled expression, after a while, he resolutely shook his head.

"No, I still can't tell the second sister. Anyway, it's the queen mother's birthday banquet in two days, so I'll know when the time comes."

Shen Wanqing was slightly annoyed when she heard her words.Seeing her appearance just now, I thought she would say it.But she didn't expect that she still didn't say anything, which made her wonder if she was playing tricks on her again.

"I heard that the daughters of various families will perform for the queen mother at this birthday banquet. I don't know how my sister is preparing."

Shen Wanyu diverted the topic away, there was no such performance at the former Empress Dowager's birthday banquet.There was a sudden increase this year, and she had already guessed the reason for it.

The current emperor has only four sons, and the prince is almost at the age of concubine.It is estimated that this is a disguised form for the prince to accept the concubine. Shen Wanqing will never give up such a good opportunity.

"Don't my big sister know about my talent? It's nothing more than one of the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. There were so many famous ladies that day, and my talent will definitely be overwhelmed."

Shen Wanqing sighed, as if she was very sorry.In fact, this is also what she thinks in her heart, since she can know that the news is to choose a concubine for the prince.The ladies from other families will naturally know.

"Hehe, second sister, don't underestimate yourself. Your appearance and talent are among the best in Dakun. I believe you will surpass everyone else. If you don't have confidence in yourself, then I have nothing to show I got it."

Shen Wanyu looked at her with a gentle smile, and couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.This woman loves nice words, especially when they come from someone you hate.

"Big sister can't say that, at least one thing I can't compare to you. In the Queen Mother's heart, it hurts to treat you like a baby. She doesn't need to perform, she is also happy."

Shen Wanqing covered her mouth and smiled softly, looking at the depressed Shen Wanyu, she felt a little mocking.Who doesn't know that the first lady of the Beining Hou Mansion knows nothing, except being unruly and willful and arrogant.

"Hehe, the gentle and virtuous Empress Dowager like the second sister also likes it in her heart."

Shen Wanyu twitched the corners of her mouth, and had to say that Second Aunt and Shen Wanqing had done a good job on the surface.Even the Empress Dowager spoke well of the two.

"I don't think the eldest sister is very energetic, so I won't bother you and go back first."

Shen Wanqing knew she couldn't ask anything, so she stood up and said goodbye.

Shen Wanyu raised the corners of her mouth, and beckoned for Qiuzhu to come over.This birthday banquet will also be a little different from previous years.
