Chapter 276: Prepare for a Rainy Day

"Ah, this, he promised me that if I changed my mind, he would divorce me and let me leave the palace, and he would also give me a mansion and confer me the title of female marquis."

With her own mansion, she won't have to worry about living under someone else's roof after her parents pass away.

Although her eldest brother treated her well, no one knew whether her future sister-in-law could tolerate her being kicked out of the palace. Even if she did, she would be the subject of a lot of gossip among her brothers, sisters-in-law, and nephews after being divorced.

She can't drag down her brother and sister-in-law.

Therefore, becoming an independent woman is her best outcome.

[A man's mouth is a lie, and his words are not reliable, my sister.]

"I'm not just talking nonsense. I asked him to write me a divorce decree before I entered the palace. The decree will take effect when he changes his mind."

Speaking of this matter, Shen Qingyi couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips, secretly delighted with her own intelligence.

Hearing this, Shen Wan raised her eyebrows, a hint of surprise appearing in her eyes.

[Sister, you are so thoughtful! I never thought you would have such foresight.]

However, as the ruler of a country, it is probably not feasible for the emperor to control him with just an imperial edict. But it doesn't matter. Plans cannot keep up with changes. Things haven't reached that point yet. It's useless to think too much.

Maybe the emperor will really keep his promise.

"That's all I have in mind. Do you think anything is wrong? Or do you have any other suggestions?"

Shen Qingyi humbly asked for advice.

She didn't know why she asked her younger sister's opinion after making the decision, but now she knows.

My younger sister is wise and powerful, just like a god. Her views must be correct.

"Sister, I think there's nothing wrong with your idea. You've planned it very carefully, your goal is very clear, and you know what you want. It's not just a simple impulsive rush into something because of love."

You've left yourself ample room for error, but times change, and nothing is absolute.

[No matter how well-planned you are, things may still change in the future, so don't worry too much and just follow your heart.]

"You don't have a favorite man, and you don't dislike the Emperor. It's fine if you want to give it a try. As long as you're prepared for the worst and have the courage to bear all the consequences, it's fine."

[Of course, what I mean by this is not that the worst thing will definitely happen.]

"Yeah, I understand. Thank you, little sister."

Shen Qingyi was very happy that her idea was recognized. She hugged the soft little baby with a milky smell and kissed him fiercely.

Chen Wan couldn't bear such enthusiasm.

[Sister, stop, stop, stop kissing...]

Shen Qingyi stopped and looked at her with a resentful look on her face, "Wow, why don't you give me a kiss? Don't you love me anymore?"

Chen Wan: “…”

[No, sister, I'm dizzy. I'm not well yet. Uh, I feel so uncomfortable...]

Shen Wan touched her forehead with her small fingers, closed her eyes, and acted as if she was in great pain.

Seeing this, Shen Qingyi's expression changed and she looked at her nervously.

"Ah, you're still feeling uncomfortable? What should I do? Do you want me to call the court doctor?"

"No need, sister. The court doctor can't solve my problem. Is there anything else you need? If not, I'll just rest for a while."

"That's all, that's all. Little sister, please have a good rest."

The heavy stone in her heart fell to the ground. Shen Qingyi felt sleepy and lay down beside Shen Wan. She soon fell into a deep sleep.

After she fell asleep, Shen Wan opened her eyes and turned her head to look at her peaceful sleeping face.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

There was a knock on the door, accompanied by Mrs. Shen's slightly anxious voice.

"Qingyi, are you up? Open the door quickly and let me see Xiaowaner."

【Hey, it's my mother. 】

[Sister, wake up quickly, mom is here to find me.]

Shen Wan stretched out her hand and used all her strength to push Shen Qingyi.

However, she was too weak and Shen Qingyi was sleeping too deeply, so she didn't react at all.

[Hey, sister, please wake up. I can't use my mental strength anymore and can't tell mother I'm safe. Please let mother see me before you go back to sleep.]

[If she can't see me, my mother will be worried.]

However, no matter how hard she screamed in her heart, Shen Qingyi always slept peacefully.

[Looking at my sister like this, it seems that the voice of my heart doesn't get louder because of my thoughts. No matter how much I shout, it doesn't affect the pitch of the voice.]

[Mom, I tried my best, but I couldn't wake my sister up. You should figure out a way yourself.]

There was a creaking sound.

Just as Shen Wan was about to fall silent, the window was suddenly pushed open and a figure came in quietly.
