The news of Liu's expulsion spread throughout the capital, and there was a lot of discussion in the harem.

"I heard that Liu was found to have embezzled 100,000 taels of silver?"

"That's right, even the emperor is furious!"

Shen Weiwan sat in the Pepper Room, listening to the palace maids' discussions, with a slight smile on her lips.

The Queen Mother smiled and handed over a cup of tea: "Wei Wan, you are very good at using a borrowed knife to kill someone."

Shen Weiwan hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty, thank you for your praise. This was all the Seventh Prince's idea."

The Queen Mother waved her hand and said, "Don't be so modest. Don't I know your little tricks?"

Inside the Imperial Censorate, Lin Yueru screamed at the bronze mirror: "What the hell is this!"

In the mirror, her face was covered with rashes, as if she was disfigured.

Madam Censor frowned: "What's wrong with you? Didn't you say it was just an allergy?"

Lin Yueru cried out, "It's all Shen Weiwan's fault! She deliberately hurt me!"

The Censor's wife sighed, "Forget it. I'll send you to the farm tomorrow—we'll talk about it after your face heals."

Lin Yueru collapsed on the ground, tears streaming down her face.

When Shen Weiwan received the news that Lin Yueru was sent away, she was teaching Chuntao how to play chess.

"Miss, Miss Lin has been sent to the farm." Chuntao lowered her voice.

Chen Weiwan made a move without regret: "I understand. Chuntao, go prepare some gifts - send them to the Imperial Censorate tomorrow."

Chun Tao was puzzled: "What to give?"

Shen Weiwan chuckled: “Send some ointment for the rash, and a mirror.”

Chun Tao was stunned: "Mirror?"

Shen Weiwan nodded: “Yes, I want the kind with gold-edged carvings.”

The next day, when the Censorate received the gifts, Lin Yueru was packing her luggage.

"Madam, Miss Shen sent ointment and a mirror." The maid came in holding a gift box.

Madam Censor frowned: "What does she want to do now?"

Lin Yueru gritted her teeth and said, "Open it and take a look!"

In the gift box, the ointment and the mirror lay quietly. Lin Yueru picked up the mirror and suddenly screamed: "Chen Weiwan! You are going too far!"

There was a line of small words engraved on the mirror: "Sister, remember to wear a veil when you go out next time, otherwise you will scare the children~"

In the harem, Lin Yueru's affairs quickly spread.

"I heard that Miss Shen gave me a mirror with the word 'disfigurement charm' engraved on it?"

"That's right, Miss Lin fainted from anger on the spot!"

Shen Weiwan sat in the imperial garden, listening to the palace maids' discussions, laughing so hard that she fell backwards.

The Seventh Prince Xiao Yu shook his head helplessly: "You really only want the world to be in chaos."

Shen Weiwan raised her eyebrows: “Your Highness, don’t you find it interesting?”

Xiao Yu chuckled: "It's interesting, but..."

He suddenly leaned closer and whispered, "The Emperor will summon you tomorrow, so you must behave yourself."

Shen Weiwan pretended to be stupid: “What are you restraining?”

Xiao Yu sighed: "Constrain your 'silly wisdom'."

The next day, Shen Weiwan was summoned into the imperial study.

"Chen Weiwan, do you know your crime?" The emperor said with a stern face.

Shen Weiwan knelt down hurriedly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I don't know how I have offended the majesty of heaven."

The emperor suddenly laughed out loud, "I was just teasing you! You played the 'poisonous heart knot' so beautifully that even I couldn't help but applaud you."

Shen Weiwan was stunned, then grinned: "Your Majesty, thank you for your praise. I just used a little trick."

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Get up. I heard you're going to marry the seventh brother?"

Shen Weiwan blushed: “Yes.”

The emperor laughed heartily: "Excellent! I like your straightforwardness. Tomorrow I will issue an edict and grant you a date for your wedding."

Shen Weiwan was overjoyed: “Thank you, Your Majesty!”

The wedding date is set for the third day of March, and the entire capital is preparing for it.

"Miss, the wedding dress is ready." Chuntao came in holding a bright red wedding gown.

Shen Weiwan touched the beautifully embroidered wedding gown, and the corners of her mouth rose: "Chun Tao, accompany me to the market tomorrow."

Chun Tao was puzzled: "The wedding is approaching, and Miss still has the heart to go shopping?"

Shen Weiwan smiled mysteriously: “Of course - I want to prepare a ‘surprise’ for Liu and Lin Yueru.”

Chun Tao's eyes lit up: "I will go prepare the carriage right away!"

In the market, Shen Weiwan was wearing a veil hat and strolling around.

"Miss, look what that is?" Chuntao pointed to a stall.

Shen Weiwan looked over and saw all kinds of gadgets on the stalls, among which a small wooden figurine caught her attention.

"Boss, how much is this?" she asked.

The stall owner smiled and said, "You have good taste, young lady. This is the famous 'Wife-Looking Stone' in the capital. It would be the perfect gift for your husband."

Shen Weiwan chuckled: “Wrap it up for me.”

Chun Tao was puzzled: "Miss, what are you buying this for?"

Shen Weiwan raised her eyebrows: “Of course it’s a wedding gift for the Seventh Prince.”

On the wedding night, Shen Weiwan wore a wedding gown and sat in the bridal chamber.

Xiao Yu lifted the veil and said with a smile: "What? Are you nervous?"

Shen Weiwan raised her head and grinned: "Nervous? I'm afraid that His Highness can't handle it."

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Then I want to see what you are capable of."

Shen Weiwan suddenly took out a wooden figurine from her sleeve: "This is a wedding gift for you - 'Wife-Looking Stone'."

Xiao Yu was stunned: "Wife-Looking Stone?"

Shen Weiwan nodded: “If Your Highness dares to take a concubine in the future, I will carve you into a stone statue and place it at the door!”

Xiao Yu laughed loudly: "If I take a concubine, will you carve me into a stone statue?"

Shen Weiwan nodded seriously: “That’s right!”

Xiao Yu suddenly came closer and whispered, "Don't worry, I will only marry you in this life."

Shen Weiwan’s heartbeat accelerated and her face flushed like a rosy cloud.

After marriage, Shen Weiwan moved into the Seventh Prince's Mansion.

"Your Highness, please look at this." Shen Weiwan held up an account book, "The harvest on Liu's farm is good this year."
