Seeing that Shen Ningyuan didn't say anything, Lan Yin quickly asked: "Miss, have you also noticed that the way the former prince looks at you is very wrong?"
Shen Ningyuan nodded gently, “Well, if you didn’t say it, I wouldn’t have noticed.”
After saying that, Shen Ningyuan fell into deep thought again.
Is it possible that she can use Xie Wanzhou to catch the mastermind as soon as possible?
After all, both of them are members of the royal family.
"Miss, I think the former prince will come to see you again in the future." Lan Yin said with a smile.
Shen Ningyuan asked: "How can you be so sure?"
"Because the man with him just asked me if the young lady and the former crown prince are a good match."
"Did he really ask that?" Shen Ningyuan was curious. "Then how did you answer?"
"Miss, he pressed my acupoints and I couldn't speak." Lan Yin answered truthfully.
"If I ask you this question, how would you answer?"
"I think... he is not worthy of the young lady."
Shen Ningyuan: “???”
"In my opinion, the young lady is perfect in every way and is not worthy of that lunatic."
Shen Ningyuan: "..."
"If the young lady were to be with him, she might wake up one day with her head gone. It's horrible to be with a man like that!"
Shen Ningyuan: “.”
"My young lady must marry the most handsome and brave man in the world!"
Shen Ningyuan: “!”
Seeing that Lan Yin was about to continue speaking, Shen Ningyuan quickly raised her hand and made a gesture to silence her.
"Okay, stop talking." Shen Ningyuan said in a light tone: "Your young lady is still a widow. You are not afraid of others laughing at you when you say these things!"
Lan Yin grumbled, "What's so funny about this? What's wrong with the fact that the young lady is a widow? I wonder how many people in this capital are envious of this young widow!"
After hearing Lan Yin's words, Shen Ningyuan couldn't help laughing.
"Alright, we're at the Marquis' Mansion now, so remember not to say that again!"
"I listen to the lady!"
As they spoke, the two of them walked into the Marquis' Mansion, one in front and one behind.
At this time, Chen was counting the silver.
Seeing several large boxes filled with silver, Chen was extremely satisfied.
"Although Shen Ningyuan, that bitch, deserves to die, she was still very straightforward when she asked her to borrow money. She gave me so much money right away!"
"What a foolish woman! She must have naively thought that the Marquis' Mansion would return the money to her!" Chen grinned and said sinisterly, "She's dreaming! Now that the money is in our pockets, she can forget about taking it back. Hahahahaha..."
As soon as the words fell, the only sound in the huge room was Chen's crazy laughter.
"Madam, the young lady is back!"
At this time, the servant ran in to inform Chen that Shen Ningyuan was back.
When Chen heard that Shen Ningyuan was back, her expression instantly turned ugly.
He angrily cursed, "What a wretch! What are you doing back at this time?"
"Madam Ji, you just accepted my money and now you're cursing the creditor for bad luck. Isn't that too much?"
Shen Ningyuan’s cold voice came, and Chen was so frightened that she trembled all over.
Looking at Shen Ningyuan who suddenly walked in, Chen asked subconsciously: "Who let you in?"
"Mrs. Ji, I am your creditor after all. Can't I come and see if the money has been paid?"
"Then didn't you inform us in advance before you came?" Chen asked coldly.
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan smiled, "Madam Ji, if you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door. Why are you so nervous?"
"Who said I was nervous?" Chen retorted, "It was obviously you who suddenly walked in and scared me."
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan stopped talking and looked at Chen with a smile.
Being stared at by her, Chen felt inexplicably uneasy.
But when she thought of what Chen Moer had said to her, she quickly calmed down.
He immediately said, "I have received the money, one hundred thousand taels of silver, not a cent less."
"In that case, I will go back to the courtyard first. I hope that Madam Ji will use this money comfortably."
After speaking meaningfully, Shen Ningyuan turned and walked out of the room.
Her nonchalant attitude really made Chen very angry.
But then he thought again, he had gotten 100,000 taels of silver from Shen Ningyuan for free, so he decided to let her be arrogant for two days.
Anyway, from now on, even if Shen Ningyuan wants to be arrogant, she won’t have the chance!
After returning to Xiyuanju, Lan Yin was extremely angry when she thought of Chen's attitude.
She immediately started cursing, "You black-hearted Ji family, you're so ungrateful! They were the ones who asked the young lady to borrow money, yet they acted like this, as if the young lady owed them something!"
Shen Ningyuan raised an eyebrow and smiled: "If you have the heart to scold the Ji family, you might as well pour two cups of tea for your young lady."
"Miss, are you thirsty?"
"I've walked all this way, talked so much, and haven't had a drop of water. How can I not be thirsty?"
"Oh, okay, I'll prepare tea for you right away!"
As she spoke, Lan Yin hurriedly brewed tea and poured a cup for Shen Ningyuan.
Shen Ningyuan raised her head and drank it in one gulp.
He laughed coldly, "In the eyes of the Ji family, that money is just something I gave them for free. They don't have to pay it back. Of course they have to act like a spoiled brat after getting such an advantage."
"But this time, they've hit a wall. They'll be crying when they have to pay back the money!"
"Miss, you are right. I am waiting for them to return the money to you in tears!"
"Um."
Seeing Lan Yin's angry look, Shen Ningyuan responded lightly and said nothing more.
After a few days, the news that the empress dowager had returned to the capital had spread throughout the city.
As Chen Moer expected, the Marquis' Mansion received the invitation very quickly.
The invitation clearly mentioned Shen Ningyuan and asked her to attend with Chen.
Seeing the invitation, Shen Ningyuan had a playful smile on his face.
There were many people at the palace banquet, so it was a good time to take action.
On the other side, Chen received the invitation and immediately looked at Chen Moer with a smile on her face.
"Mo'er, the invitation has arrived. As the widow of the Marquis's family, Shen Ningyuan will also enter the palace with me."
Chen Moer nodded, "At the palace banquet, we will follow the plan we agreed on before and make Shen Ningyuan lose face. In this way, the Queen Mother will be unhappy and will take Shen Ningyuan to the National Temple. Then no one will interfere with our plan!"
When Chen heard this, her eyes lit up immediately. "That's right, since we can't kill that bitch Shen Ningyuan, then send her away and keep her away from the capital. Out of sight, out of mind!"
"Aunt, don't be nervous on the day of the palace banquet. I will disguise myself as a palace maid and be by your side at any time."
Chen's face lit up with joy, a hint of excitement appearing on her face, "Mo'er, with you here this time, the plan will definitely succeed!"
"Of course." Chen Mo'er curled her lips and smiled triumphantly, "I will definitely make Shen Ningyuan pay a heavy price for disrupting the plans of His Highness and me so many times during this period!"
