Venomous Empress Reborn

666 The Incident (5)

“What a pity.” Xie Jingxing said regretfully.

Shen Miao was amused.

…

New things happened every day in the capital, but the new things that happened every day would quickly drown out the new things that happened a few days ago. For example, the lawsuit between the Shen family and the Chen family. Everyone treated it as a joke and forgot about it. In the Shen family, it was the same. The servants still had to do what they should do. The only difference was that the Autumn Water Garden had a new mistress. The new mistress was quite liked by Shen Wan, almost comparable to Chen Ruoqiu when she had just married to Shen Wan.

Compared to Chen Ruoqiu, Chang Zaiqing was more good at building relationships with the people around her, probably because she did not have Chen Ruoqiu’s arrogant aura. She was outgoing and likable, and she made the servants feel very comfortable being around her. Not only did Shen Wan like her, but even Shen Gui and Old Madam Shen felt that she was really not bad, and they felt that it was a wise decision to let Shen Wan divorce Chen Ruoqiu.

Old Madam Shen specially found an eminent monk to read Chang Zaiqing’s face. The monk said that the child in Chang Zaiqing’s stomach was definitely a boy. Hearing that, Old Madam Shen was overjoyed. She no longer cared about the fact that Chang Zaiqing came from a humble background. The most important thing in the Shen family was to quickly add a boy. Otherwise, outsiders would think that the Shen family was going to die without sons.

Shen Wan had a smile on his face everyday ever since he married Chang Zaiqing. Chang Zaiqing was able to give Shen Wan good ideas, and she was also good at managing the household. There was probably no man who did not like such a wife.

On this day, Chang Zaiqing and Shen Wan were talking in the courtyard again. Chang Zaiqing was wearing a thick fur coat, with a brazier by her feet and a heater in her hand.

Chang Zaiqing said, “Master, you are free today.”

Shen Wan held her hand and smiled. “It’s not just today. There’s nothing to do in the imperial court these days. I can spend more time with you and the child.”

“That’s great.” Chang Zaiqing smiled and said, “I think our child also wants your company.”

Shen Wan enjoyed hearing this. He hugged Chang Zaiqing in his arms and sighed. “Now, all I want is for you to give birth to the child so that my efforts will not be in vain.”

Chang Zaiqing seemed to have understood something. Seeing that Shen Wan’s eyebrows were still furrowed, she asked, “Master, are you still worried about the matter relating to Fifth Miss Shen a few days ago?”

Getting Shen Miao to marry Prince Zhou or getting Shen Miao to have a relationship with Prince Zhou didn’t seem to go smoothly because Shen Wan hadn’t brought it up for the past few days. Chang Zaiqing did not know why Shen Wan wanted to do this, but she knew that this matter would have a great impact on Shen Wan’s official career.

Shen Wan forced a smile and shook his head. “Shen Xin has been watching his daughter very closely these days. Shen Miao didn’t even step outside the mansion, so I really can’t find an opportunity. It’s difficult to make a move.” As he spoke, he became a little dejected. “This is not good.”

Chang Zaiqing rolled her eyes and said with a smile, “Why is that difficult? If Fifth Miss Shen doesn’t go out, we can think of a way to make Fifth Miss Shen take the initiative to go out. To be honest, if General Shen finds out that Fifth Miss Shen is going out, he will inevitably let her bring a group of guards. After all, General Shen is from the army and everyone around him is well-trained. It’s better to get Fifth Miss Shen to sneak out without General Shen knowing.”

Shen Wan narrowed his eyes. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head. “I can’t think of a way to get her to sneak out. She used to be close to someone called Feng Anning, but ever since the last incident, Feng Anning has been grounded at home. If we use Feng Anning’s name to lure her out, Shen Miao will definitely be wary.”
