Chapter 30 Is he hiding his incompetence?

"The doctor said that my mother's old illness relapsed because she was caught in the rain yesterday. It didn't rain last night."

Shen Lingshu's cold questioning brought Shen Lingyi back to her senses. She sneered, "Who knows if Concubine Song played with the water by herself?"

Shen Lingyi said nonchalantly, "Shen Lingshu, since you are still somewhat useful, as long as you can ask the prince to help me get the divorce letter, I can ask my father to make your aunt a concubine."

Even when Shen Lingyi asked for help, she was always condescending.

Your concubine?

There was a hint of sarcasm in Shen Lingshu's eyes.

"Shu'er." Song Fanghua shook her head worriedly at Shen Lingshu. Shen Lingyi turned around and signaled the two maids to hold Song Fanghua down.

“Shen Lingyi!”

Shen Lingshu wanted to go forward anxiously, but when she saw Song Fanghua shaking her head at her with tears in her eyes, she stepped forward resolutely, picked up the bowl of porridge next to her, and threw it at the old woman.

It hit Madam Wu right on the body, and the thin white porridge spilled all over her.

Shen Lingshu's voice was cold and her eyes were sharp: "Get out."

"you……"

Nanny Wu was about to take action, but was frightened by the look and loosened her grip.

Liu Si stood in front of Shen Lingshu, pushed Madam Wu to the ground, and pushed away the other maid. She was like a door god, standing in front of Shen Lingshu.

"Mom, it's okay."

Shen Lingshu took a handkerchief and gently wiped away Song Fanghua's tears. She said comfortingly, she glanced sideways and said sarcastically: "I thought you would want to redress the deposed prince, but I didn't expect... to fly everywhere when disaster strikes."

"you……"

Shen Lingyi's face turned black with anger, and her back teeth were gritting. If she hadn't been able to use it, she would have scratched her face and torn her mouth!

"You want me to do something, and you're just sending me off with a concubine?"

Shen Lingshu looked at her coldly: "Equal wife, and you still have to write a divorce application."

If she hadn't known that the prince would be reinstated, she would have been determined to avenge Shen Lingyi for making her kneel down today!

"It's OK to be a co-wife, but it's useless for me to write the divorce application. As long as the prince is willing to help, it's all fine."

A hint of joy flashed in Shen Lingyi's eyes. As long as she could get a divorce, at worst, she wouldn't marry in the capital!

Returning to her hometown in Nancheng, she is still the superior eldest daughter of the Shen family.

Shen Lingshu said firmly: "No, both are indispensable."

“…”

Shen Lingyi fell silent. Once the divorce application was written, Shen Lingshu wanted to use it as a handle to threaten her?

As if she had thought of something, Shen Lingyi stared at her and asked, "How sure are you that the prince will agree to you?"

Shen Lingshu stroked her belly gently, "Based on what I have in my belly, this is Prince Lin's only child!"

“…”

Shen Lingyi stared at her belly, jealous to the point of going crazy. Why was it the Crown Prince who was deposed instead of Prince Lin?

"How about it? I've done you such a big favor, and I've promised my mother the position of co-wife and a divorce application. It's not too much, right?" Shen Lingshu sat on the chair and let Shen Lingyi look at her.

"You, are you really Shen Lingshu?"

Shen Lingyi stared at Shen Lingshu's face. When she was in the Shen family, she was cowardly and allowed others to manipulate her. Could it be that after entering the Linwang Mansion, her brain became smarter?

Or have you been hiding your abilities all along?

"Sister Di said this, if I'm not Shen Lingshu, then who am I?"

Shen Lingshu raised her eyebrows. Even her own mother would not think that she had changed her heart, but rather that something had happened, that her temperament had changed, or that she was hiding her incompetence.

Looking at her smile, Shen Lingyi had an urge to tear it apart. Why was she still so proud even though her prince's concubine was gone?

"Can."

Shen Lingyi's eyes flashed slightly, and the ruthlessness that flashed by was so fast that it was impossible to catch. It was just an application. Once he got the handle, would he still be afraid of this?

In order to avoid more nightmares at night, Shen Lingyi said: "Let's go to my Mingyue Pavilion to write. The smell here is too bad."

Shen Lingyi frowned. The room smelled of medicine, without any incense, which reminded her of the days in the Royal Villa!

"Let's go to the west wing. I haven't been back to my room for a long time."

Shen Lingshu didn't give any explanation and directly decided on the west wing.

In Lengwu Courtyard, Song Fanghua lives in the main house, her younger brother Shen Xinghe lives in the east wing, and she used to live in the west wing, but it is empty now.

"Let's go to Mingyue Pavilion. I have a charcoal fire in my room to prevent your precious body from getting cold." Shen Lingyi said with a smile.

"Let's go to the west wing, to my elder sister's Mingyue Pavilion. I'm afraid I can't afford her."

Shen Lingshu asked doubtfully, "Sister-in-law keeps asking me to go to Mingyue Pavilion. Is there something else going on?"

"No, then go to your west wing." Shen Lingyi quickly denied it. She ordered loudly: "Come here, get pen, ink, paper and inkstone and bring them to the west wing."

Shen Lingshu pretended not to see Shen Lingyi’s guilty conscience.

"Shu'er."

Song Fanghua covered her chest and looked at her worriedly.

"Don't worry, mother. I'll be back soon."

Shen Lingshu looked at her soothingly, her eyes gentle and firm: "Believe in my daughter."

Song Fanghua looked at her daughter's departing back, she covered her chest with her hands, tears in her eyes: it was time for her to help her daughter.

West wing.

"Come, drink some water."

Shen Lingyi asked someone to serve tea, and as if chatting with sisters, she said, "This is the first time for us sisters to drink tea like this, right?"

"yes."

Shen Lingshu lowered her eyes. Everyone knew that the eldest daughter of the Shen family was both talented and beautiful, and was the prince's savior. If she had not been so young, she would have entered the prince's backyard and become a concubine.

And she, Shen Lingshu, is a poor little thing who is not even worthy of being mentioned by name.

Soon, Shu Qing took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and Shen Lingyi picked up the pen to write the divorce application.

"Handprint." Shen Lingshu reminded.

"Sister, this is too formal." Shen Lingyi's lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm. When she got the application form back, it was just a piece of waste paper.

"Presenting it to His Majesty, it must be formal."

Shen Lingshu looked at the red handprint she pressed. Now that the thing was in her hands, no one, not even the emperor, could take it away!

After confirming that it was correct, Shen Lingshu carefully hid the application form in her sleeve.

'cuckoo'

A bird called out from nowhere.

"oops."

The teacup in Shen Lingyi's hand suddenly spilled water, soaking Shen Lingshu's dress. She said, "Sister, hurry into the house and change your clothes. You, hurry to the carriage to get clothes for your aunt."

Liu Si stood beside Shen Lingshu, motionless. Her master said that she should only listen to her.

"It's okay, I still have my old clothes at home." Shen Lingshu smiled.

A maidservant can't cause any trouble.

Shen Lingyi winked at Shuqing: "Shuqing, why don't you take the second girl into the house to change clothes."

"Second Miss, please."

Shu Qing almost started to pull, but was pushed away by Liu Si. She supported Shen Lingshu and said, "Auntie Shen, this servant is here."

"good."

Shen Lingshu took two steps, then stopped and turned back to say, "Sister Di's clothes are also wet, sister Di will change first."

"No, I'm only a little wet." Shen Lingyi refused and urged: "Sister, you'd better go into the house and change clothes quickly, so as not to catch a cold and hurt the baby in your belly."
