Feng Zhu quickly stopped her.

"Are you crazy? Didn't you see that our Lord was already furious? If he finds out, you'll be dead!"

"We've served our Lord for years, risking our lives for Him. I don't believe he'd be so heartless to me for a woman who's only been with us for a few days. Get out of my way!"

The wind blew, but the wind did not stir.

To prevent her from acting impulsively and causing irreversible consequences, we can only continue to patiently persuade her.

"His lord's relationship with her is merely a charade; how could he possibly truly love her?"

"The Duke of Zhenguo's family wielded immense power in the court, which already aroused the emperor's suspicion. Marrying a daughter from the Shen family would incite conflict between the royal family and the court officials, causing them to distrust each other."

"It is you who, if you act impulsively, will truly ruin the Lord's grand plan."

Hongluan could only hear one sentence in her mind.

The Lord could never like her!

That's good, otherwise she would never have let that woman go!

Seeing her like this, a hint of gloom flashed in Feng Zhu's eyes.

Having known each other for many years, how could he not see Hongling's feelings for her master?

But the falling flowers are willing, while the flowing water is indifferent; why should she be so fixated on this?

……

"Achoo!"

Shen Fu suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

Who is plotting against her?

Upon learning that Jun Qiyuan had not been punished and had left the palace unharmed, a cold glint flashed in her eyes.

I should have realized that bringing down Jun Qiyuan would not be an easy task.

If this were to get out, it would only become a royal scandal and cause public outcry.

Therefore, even if the emperor knew the truth, he would not easily punish the emperor because of the dignity of the royal family and the father-son relationship.

Unless... it's an unforgivable crime that can't be covered up!

Suddenly I remembered that the Mid-Autumn Festival is in two days.

Every year, the palace would hold a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, inviting officials of the third rank and above to attend along with their female family members.

On this day in my past life, a major event occurred in the palace.

The seventeenth prince, Emperor Yong's most beloved son, was poisoned.

The seventeenth prince was the emperor's youngest son. He was only three years old when he died at a banquet, bleeding from all seven orifices.

The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation, which eventually revealed that it was Consort Ning who was responsible.

Consort Ning was the daughter of the Grand Tutor, and gave birth to the Second Prince Jun Jingyan and the Seventh Princess Jun Anning.

Grand Tutor Ning is one of the "Three Dukes". He has been assisting the current emperor since he was still the crown prince. He is a close minister of the emperor and has always had a good relationship with the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion.

The second prince, Jun Jingyan, was influenced by his maternal grandfather from a young age, and was learned and gentle.

Her father often said that it would be great if she could marry the second prince.

But at that time, she was so immersed in Jun Qiyuan's sweet words that she couldn't tell the difference between good and bad.

Because of this incident, Consort Ning was accused of plotting to murder a prince and was banished to the Cold Palace.

Grand Tutor Ning and his entire family were of noble birth and dignified lineage. He taught countless students, but in the end, he was demoted and exiled.

The second prince, Jun Jingyan, and Princess Anning were naturally not spared either.

A once-promising heir apparent was demoted to a remote fiefdom in the northwest, thus losing any chance of inheriting the throne.

One was used as a tool for a political marriage and sent to another country, but she died within six months.

In her past life, when she was on the verge of death.

Since Jun Qiyuan already possessed the world, he decided to reveal all his evil deeds.

His actions, including using the poisoning of the seventeenth prince to frame Consort Ning and bring down the Grand Tutor's mansion, were all aimed at eliminating the second prince, his most threatening rival.

Later, he did the same thing again.

He framed the other princes one by one, eliminated his rivals, and finally ascended the throne.

Shen Fu clenched her fingers so tightly that her nails dug deep into her palms.

In this life, she will never let Jun Qiyuan's conspiracy succeed!

Isn't the dragon throne what he's been longing for?

She will make him watch helplessly as all his hopes vanish, and then experience a fate worse than death!

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Shen Fu, unlike her usual simple and elegant self, appeared at the banquet in a flowing, sky-blue gown.

Her features were delicate and beautiful, and her figure was slender and graceful, as pure and flawless as a lotus emerging from the water.

The delicate hairpin in her hair and the jade buckle at her waist accentuated her graceful elegance and understated sophistication.

She truly deserves to be called an unparalleled beauty!

Just like in the past, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet tonight is still grand and impressive.

The banquet was held in the Chaolu Hall, which had already been decorated. The floor was covered with crimson brocade, and thousands of lanterns were hung under the eaves and in the corridors, their lights shimmering.

The tables were neatly arranged, with fine wines and exquisite pastries displayed in layers, and the lamplight reflected off the jade cups and plates, creating a scene of prosperity and grandeur.

At this time, the banquet had not yet begun.

The women gathered in the courtyard to admire the moon and lanterns, laughing and chatting.

When Shen Fu appeared, she attracted everyone's attention.

On the one hand, people were amazed by her outfit and beauty today.

On the other hand... the news of the wrong marriage had already spread throughout the entire capital.

Everyone knew that she had gotten into the wrong bridal sedan chair, entered the wrong bridal chamber, and lost her innocence.

An ordinary woman would probably have been too ashamed to face anyone long ago.

Shen Fu knew that after the incident of the wrong bride being married in the bridal sedan chair, there were many rumors outside, and she didn't know how many strange looks she would face when she entered the palace today.

Therefore, she should act with the air of a noblewoman.

She kept all the ridicule out, letting those who laughed at her become the laughingstock.

She didn't think much of it and continued walking forward.

Suddenly, a mocking voice came from not far away.

"Who do we have here? It's the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, a model of noblewoman. How dare she enter the palace after such a shameless act? Doesn't she fear offending everyone's eyes?"

A woman with a pretty face and wearing a pink dress walked over.

She held her chin high, her almond-shaped eyes slightly upturned, her gaze filled with an arrogant disdain for others.

It was none other than Jiang Ruoyao, the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's family!

She and Shen Fu were mortal enemies.

In the capital city, there is a ranking of noble ladies from prominent families.

Shen Fu ranked first, while Jiang Ruoyao came in second.

She was very dissatisfied with this!
