Chen Yin's appearance caused ripples in the palace, which was as calm as a lake.

"You, you are Chen Yin?"

Shen Qilin stood up in shock, and looked up and down at the well-proportioned Chen Yin, who was completely different from the fat, sloppy, evil sister in his memory.

Chen Yin ignored him and glanced at the people at the table. Quan Xin looked angry and unfriendly.

"Quan Yue, I was wondering why I haven't seen you all day today. I guess you came here to eat and drink for free."

Chen Yin chuckled, watched the servant pull out a chair, and sat down calmly.

Quan Yue's expression froze, and he glanced at Chen Yin unnaturally. Feeling the tense atmosphere, he frowned, glanced coldly at Quan Xin, and his face was gloomy.

He was called to this Hongmen Banquet and used as a gun by Shen Qiangwei. What a fool.

Xuan Ming, who had a grim expression on his face, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Chen Yin, and said with a pleasant face, "Xiao Yin, I made these dishes especially for you, come and try them."

Xuan Ming is the only one among all the beastly husbands in the empress's harem who has good cooking skills, which is one of the reasons why the empress favors him.

Chen Yin nodded. She was really hungry. She picked up her chopsticks and tasted the braised pork. It tasted like a modern pre-made dish, not even as good as the ones in the fly restaurants. "Not bad."

Among so many people at the scene, only Chen Yin came to eat. He held the bowl and devoured the food with relish.

Shen Qilin frowned at her unpresentable appearance. Even if she lost weight and became beautiful, she was still an evil woman. How could such a person be worthy of being his sister?

"You seem to enjoy your meal, and you don't care whether your father works hard or not."

He is sarcastic.

Chen Yin raised her eyes: "You care, what have you done?"

Successfully choked Shen Qilin.

"Alright, alright, Qilin, you too. Your sister rarely comes over, so why don't you say a few words? There are so many people here, and you're letting Huo Yao and Quan Yue laugh at you."

Xuan Ming had no choice but to speak out to stop him.

Shen Qiangwei hurriedly said: “We are all family, it’s okay.”

As Chen Yin started eating, Huo Yao and the others also picked up their chopsticks and started eating silently.

Quan Xin praised him profusely, "Master Xuan is such a great cook! We are so lucky! We can't even get this at home."

"Eat more if you like, and come here often."

The Quan family and Shen Qiangwei are good friends. They have taken sides early on and are their die-hard supporters.

"Thank you, Master Xuan. I won't be shy then."

Quan Xin smiled romantically and innocently, but when he glanced at Chen Yin, his eyes turned cold and a mocking arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"It seems that His Highness has been very busy recently. It must be very hard for him to lead Song Yu and the others in developing the medicine."

When the potion was mentioned, Shen Qilin looked up and his eyes met Shen Qiangwei's, with a strange look on his face.

This was the only thing that made them feel wary of Chen Yin. The potion had not yet been made public. Once the news of the mental enhancement potion was made public, Chen Yin would definitely become a great hero throughout the country.

The two turned their eyes to Xuan Ming.

His eyes darkened, and Xuan Ming put down his chopsticks. "Xiaoyin, your mother has given you a heavy task. You need to prepare a thousand potions in half a month, relying on only a few students. When I heard about this, I was really worried about you. You don't understand your mother's temper. If you can't deliver on time when it comes to such a national event, even if I plead for you, your mother will definitely punish you."

Quan Xin frowned, a look of confusion flashing across her face. She was the only one in the audience who didn't understand.

Chen Yin lowered her head to eat, lacking interest. "So?"

The first signs are emerging.

Xuan Ming chuckled, his voice gentle and steady, without any of the irritability and disgust from last time.

"Xiaoyin, among all the princes and princesses in the palace, you three are the only ones who are my children, my true siblings. Qiangwei has been studying potions since she was a child, and her level is no lower than yours. Instead of letting those students do it, why don't you take your sister and brother with you? Why give them the credit for nothing?"

If you can get involved in such a medicine, the benefits that will come later will be huge.

Quan Xin was secretly shocked when he heard this. What was going on? Why did the Fifth Princess put Lady Xue Mei aside and follow Chen Yin?

Chen Yin remained unmoved: "Siblings? Who calls them siblings? Have you ever seen a sister steal her sister's fiancé? Father, please stop talking like that. It's disgusting to say such things during a meal."

Quan Yue's face froze, he sat up straight, and tried hard to suppress his laughter.

He knew that Chen Yin had this kind of temper, but he didn't expect that she would act like this towards Xuan Ming.

Xuan Ming couldn't hold the smile on his face for a moment.

Shen Qilin's face suddenly changed, and he put down his chopsticks. "Fourth sister, what do you mean? Why, do you think you're so awesome just because you developed a potion that improves a mere C-level mental power? How do you talk to your father? Do you still have your father in your eyes?"

He was clearly broken.

Chen Yin was fearless. "You're so funny! When did I ever say I had eyes for my father? I've always said I only had eyes for the Queen Mother! Let's eat, stop teasing me, okay? C-grade psychiatric potions aren't that great, you've developed an S-grade one! Can you? If not, just shut up. You keep nagging me. No wonder you can't find a female in your twenties. With your attitude, anyone who gets together with you will be in trouble for the rest of their lives!"

After spending a whole day in the laboratory, Chen Yin was already irritable. If these people insisted on coming up to her to cause trouble, she would not be polite, so as to avoid them causing trouble for her after having nothing to do.

Shen Qilin’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and the chopsticks in his hand were making a crackling sound.

The smile on Xuan Ming's face disappeared and he looked gloomy.

"Chen Yin, you don't even want to listen to me, your father, right? They are your brothers and sisters, and you don't even care about your own siblings. Instead, you help outsiders and always blame us for not caring enough about you. Who can tolerate you with this kind of behavior?"

"Yes, yes, yes, yes. I didn't listen to you and let you take advantage of me. I'm just a bad person. I'm eating and taking things at the same time. Do you have any shame?"

Chen Yin sneered and looked at Chen Qiangwei: "Hasn't Fifth Sister always been a proud person? How come now she can flatter me and let father act as a lobbyist and take advantage of me?"

It's not irony, everyone looks down on Chen Yin and takes advantage of him whenever possible.

He started puaing when he had a disagreement, and it was funny that Chen Yin could take it.

She was not like the original owner who still had expectations for Xuan Ming, her blood relative.

Shen Qiangwei’s breathing was unstable and she couldn’t laugh, “Fourth sister, you misunderstood. This is what father meant. Even if I don’t want to, I can only obey in order to make my father happy.”

"You're quite filial then! You don't look like someone who's thinking about her brother-in-law at all."

Chen Yin nodded seriously, "It's true that people have two sides."

A heart-piercing taunt.

Xuan Ming could see that Chen Yin had made up her mind and would not waver no matter what they said.

"You're deliberately going toe-to-toe with us! Chen Yin, think carefully. If you can't finish these 1,000 potions, your mother will punish you, but no one can protect you!"

Xuan Ming spoke with a strong threat.
