Shen Leyi was slightly taken aback, as if she felt that something was off about Shen Yunxi's words, but thinking of Shen Yunxi's usual foolishness, she didn't think too much about it.

Unfortunately, she didn't know that Shen Yunxi wasn't stupid; she just trusted her too much and craved the warmth between family members, which was why she was willing to believe Shen Leyi.

But Shen Yunxi is no longer the same person she used to be.

"You know this is good. Listen to me, I've gone to great lengths to find out. The Emperor will definitely be here today. He has a very good relationship with Prince Xiaoyao, so he will naturally come out of the palace incognito to celebrate Prince Xiaoyao's birthday. However, the Emperor may not appear in front of outsiders, but he will go to Prince Xiaoyao's pavilion in the middle of the lake. Later, you should sneak over there when you have the chance. There will be no one around the pavilion, so go there and hide. The pavilion is in the middle of the water, so you can only get there by small boat. When it's almost time, I will immediately bring people to find you. If it's just you and the Emperor here, the Emperor will definitely have to take responsibility for you. Even if he finds you earlier, he can't possibly throw you into the water."

So this was Shen Leyi's plan. Shen Yunxi was speechless. The plan was full of flaws. How did she come up with it?

Why was she schemed against by someone like Shen Leyi, who was clearly not very bright, and bullied so badly, ending up with nothing and such a tragic end?

Thinking about it carefully, it seems to be because of the family affection that I couldn't get.

Unfortunately, these relatives could no longer be considered relatives. Whether it was the second or third wife, none of them wanted the first wife to live a good life. She only gradually came to understand this.

"When does Fourth Sister plan to come? If I go early, will I be discovered?" Shen Yunxi asked hesitantly, then looked embarrassed as if she had thought of something. "Fourth Sister, as you know, the Emperor doesn't have a good impression of me. If this scheme against him is discovered, he might be angry with me. I'm hesitant. I don't mind being disliked, but I'm worried that it will implicate the entire Shen family and bring shame upon them."

Shen Leyi rolled her eyes. She knew that Shen Yunxi was all talk and no action.

Previously, when Yanshantang asked him to take the initiative to find Junxuan, it took her a long time to agree, and she almost stopped several times, unwilling to take action.

If it weren't for mentioning the person Junxuan liked, she probably would have already backed down.

Everyone in the capital knew that Junxuan had always had someone he liked, and he had always been incredibly gentle and indulgent towards her.

"Trust your fourth sister. She would never harm you and will definitely make your wish come true. Think about it, the late emperor has been betrothing you for so long, but he has no intention of fulfilling this marriage agreement. Since he has no intention of doing so, we have to take action ourselves. You must believe that feelings can be cultivated."

Tsk, isn't that right? That's how I was fooled by Shen Leyi in my past life. These words sounded so promising, but now they send chills down my spine.

Shen Yunxi lowered her head, concealing the cold smile in her eyes.

The person Junxuan supposedly liked was just someone who had met Junxuan when she was young and was using her identity to gain Junxuan's special treatment.

A few days ago, while recuperating, Shen Yunxi wondered more than once if Junxuan had known her identity earlier, would things have turned out differently in her past life?

Or rather, in the few days since her rebirth, she has tried every means to tell Junxuan that she is the one he misses, and whether this life will be different.

Unfortunately, she was tired and weary.

Ironically, Shen Yunxi only learned of this news three months before her death. Perhaps it was because of this news that she completely lost the will to live and no longer wanted to take care of her body. Dragging her tired and sick body was already a kind of suffering.

It's better to keep Junxuan in the dark and let him continue to treat that person well. When the truth comes out one day, she wants to see how he reacts.

If Jun-hyun discovers that the person he treated well was actually a deceiver, I wonder if he'll still be able to laugh then?

Thinking of this, Shen Yunxi felt a surge of pleasure. She would make those who had hurt her pay back, bit by bit, in this lifetime!

Jun-hyun is just a man; she will no longer live for this man!

"Since Fourth Sister has thought of this, then I will certainly do as you say. I must thank you for considering my needs in every way. Fourth Sister, please rest assured, if I enter the palace, I will never forget your kindness to me. Whatever you want, I will fulfill it and do my best for you." Shen Yunxi stared at Shen Leyi with a sincere expression.

Seeing this, Shen Leyi smiled inwardly, even happier than before. She knew that Shen Yunxi was such a rascal who was so easy to fool.

If Shen Yunxi and the Emperor are seen alone together today, the Emperor will have no choice but to bring her into the palace, at which point he will also feel disgusted with her.

As Shen Yunxi's good older sister, if she were to enter the palace again to accompany her and become her confidante, the Emperor would surely treat her differently. Perhaps, just as she thought, he would treat her well and deliberately embarrass Shen Yunxi.

Shen Leyi was making plans in her mind, her face full of smiles. Shen Yunxi took everything in, a beautiful curve appearing at the corner of her lips, but her eyes were devoid of any warmth.

“Very good. Then rest here for a while. Once you’re sure no one is around, head to the pavilion in the middle of the lake. I’ve already made arrangements there; someone will take you there. Don’t be afraid; you’ll get what you want soon.” Shen Leyi’s voice was somewhat exuberant.

"I understand," Shen Yunxi replied softly.

Soon, Shen Leyi turned and left, as she needed to make arrangements for the people quickly.

It was fortunate that she had unintentionally helped a maid in the Prince Xiaoyao's mansion earlier. She had only said a few words because she simply couldn't stand Miss Li, but the maid actually trusted her so much that she was deeply moved.

Unexpectedly, this maid was from the Prince Xiaoyao's mansion. Her father was a steward in the mansion, and her mother was a rough old woman, which made things much more convenient for her.

Otherwise, today would be really difficult to plan.

With no one around, Shen Yunxi no longer needed to pretend. She gently covered her right shoulder and slowly sat down on a chair not far away.

It hasn't even been a few days, but after all that running around, I'm already feeling a bit of pain. It's clear the injury is deep, and I need to rest.

"Ha, I can listen?" Shen Yunxi laughed sarcastically.

According to Shen Yunxi's plan, she intended to rest for a while, then find a secluded place to hide so that Shen Leyi couldn't find her. Her grand visit to the lakeside pavilion would only displease Junxuan.

With Junxuan's personality, he certainly wouldn't let Shen Leyi get away with it.

Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out.

"I thought it was a deep sisterly bond, but it turns out it was all just an act. I wonder how the fourth young lady would feel if she knew."
