"Of course I can't be a concubine. I own so much of the Yuan family's wealth. It doesn't matter if the Wen family doesn't acknowledge it. I'll just marry him."
Jun Xiaoqiao spoke with an air of arrogance, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
“Wen Qiheng is a very stubborn man. You might just finish this and he'll draw his sword and kiss himself. Then all you'll be able to marry is a corpse. Wouldn't Miss Jun have wasted all her efforts? I have a way to make him willingly marry you and break off the engagement. Miss, are you willing to cooperate with me?”
Shen Jinchen went to great lengths to persuade Jun Xiaoqiao.
Jun Xiaoqiao bit her lip and thought about it, and it seemed that there was some truth to it, so she raised an eyebrow and asked:
"Prime Minister, what do you need from me? Just say it directly, don't beat around the bush. Did you two not sleep well last night? Did we disturb you? If so, then I apologize."
"No, Cen Xi doesn't like the capital or the palace. Do you have any way to make her stay here peacefully and not think about escaping?"
Shen Jinchen glanced at the bridal chamber, his voice languid, but his eyes held a hint of unease.
He has always been a master strategist, and he has never failed to get what he wants.
But Cen Xi, he always had a feeling of not being able to hold on to her, even when she was lying next to him, even when they had done the most intimate things.
But Shen Jinchen knew very well that if Cen Xi was given the chance, she would not hesitate to flee the capital.
I had been thinking of getting her pregnant, but last night in the middle of the night, her period suddenly started.
Shen Jinchen guessed that she must have used some means to prevent him from getting pregnant.
"Oh, so Prime Minister Shen means you want me to come up with a plan to make her fall in love with you and willingly stay by your side?"
Jun Xiaoqiao drew out the last syllable, indicating that she instantly understood what Shen Jinchen meant.
"But I don't think I can help you. Jun Jianchou only had Yu Kuang pursue her in both her past and present lives, and he didn't see her being that interested. I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult for you. But I can give you a hint: if you succeed, she will definitely not leave."
Jun Xiaoqiao thought for a moment and decided to betray Cen Xi because the man she saw last night was too tempting.
She wanted him.
“Miss Jun, please speak freely. As long as you say the plan is feasible, I will personally arrange your wedding with Wen Qiheng in the future.”
Shen Jinchen naturally knew about Jun Jianchou's situation, which is why he forcefully took him away.
"You got her pregnant with your child. Cen Xi is a very family-oriented person. The reason she is determined not to get married is because her parents divorced when she was very young. Later, her mother remarried, but she wasn't necessarily very happy. So she is very afraid of marriage. You understand the term 'fear of marriage,' right?"
Jun Xiaoqiao looked at the sitting prime minister with great curiosity and carefully analyzed Cen Xi's breakthrough point.
Does that mean she's afraid of getting married?
Shen Jinchen understood immediately; no wonder she had tried so hard to resist back then, and even intended to only be his mistress.
So that's how it is.
"Yes, but if she has her own child, she will change. She definitely won't want her child to suffer the same pain, so she will try her best to maintain your relationship. Even if you sleep with another woman one day, she will compromise a bit. However, you can forget about ever getting into her bed again. She will kill all the concubines you take, and you may become paralyzed."
Jun Xiaoqiao blinked her lips and recklessly revealed shocking information about Cen Xi.
Anyway, she wouldn't be spending the rest of her life with Cen Xi, so he felt no pressure in betraying her.
After Jun Xiaoqiao finished speaking, Shen Jinchen fell into deep thought.
It turns out his previous idea was correct; he should let her have a child with both of them, so that she wouldn't keep saying she wanted to leave.
"So? Does my revelation suit Shen Xiang's taste?"
Seeing that Shen Jinchen was thinking about her plan, Jun Xiaoqiao urgently needed to confirm an answer.
"Yes, don't worry, Wen Qiheng will break off his engagement with his fiancée within three days."
After making a promise to Jun Xiaoqiao, Shen Jinchen got up and left.
"Yay! The engagement was called off within three days. Let's see how Wen Qiheng will refuse me now."
After Shen Jinchen walked away, Jun Xiaoqiao couldn't help but make a victory sign.
Cen Xi was really exhausted by Shen Jinchen last night. Her period suddenly started in the middle of the night, and she didn't wake up until evening.
She came in, but the room was empty. She was furious. That damned man only knew how to exploit her; he didn't know how to serve her.
"Blue dress! Blue dress!"
Cen Xi pounded the bed in frustration. She was so weak and delicate that she could barely lift a finger, so she had no choice but to ask others for help.
"Princess, you're awake. Let me help you get dressed."
"That damn man, where did the culprit go? What are you getting up for? It's already dark, what's the point of me getting up?"
Cen Xi, you have countless fires burning inside you, but it seems you don't have a outlet for your frustration. You're really suffocating her.
"It seems that Prime Minister Shen went to the General's Mansion this afternoon."
Which general's residence?
Cen Xi looked at Qingyi with a completely bewildered expression.
"It's the Shen family's General's Mansion. Prime Minister Shen is still alive. Now that we're married, of course we have to pay him a visit."
Seeing that Cen Xi seemed oblivious to everything around her, Qingyi explained.
"Oh! So he has a father. Then why didn't he take me to visit the Shen family?"
Cen Xi already knew Shen Jinchen's true identity, so she found the mention of the Shen family mansion laughable.
“Princess, you are now of noble status, so the Shen family will naturally come to visit you. As soon as Prime Minister Shen came out of the bridal chamber today, he instructed me to prepare a banquet for the Shen family. They will probably come to the princess’s residence to visit you, so you don’t need to go.”
Qingyi explained on Cen Xi's behalf.
Qingyi was very proper in her conduct. After entering the palace for half a month, she quickly became familiar with palace etiquette and accepted Cenxi's current identity.
"I see. Then it's better not to go."
It must be said that Shen Jinchen was quite thoughtful in this regard.
Cen Xi felt unwell all over, and after eating some porridge in the evening, she went back to bed to rest.
She probably never imagined that she would be so lazy one day. Before she transmigrated, she worked herself to the bone for money, but before she could spend much of it, she ended up here.
Oh, right, when Cen Xi thought of money, she remembered what Shen Jinchen had promised her before she entered the palace: if she married him, he would let her go on a shopping spree in the capital for seven days.
No, this must be achieved.
She had to bring it up as soon as Shen Jinchen returned; she couldn't afford to lose both her wife and her army.
"What are you thinking about?"
Cen Xi was lost in thought when she was suddenly patted on the shoulder, which nearly scared her out of her wits.
"What are you doing? You scared me as soon as you got back!"
"I wasn't trying to scare you. You were just too absorbed in your own thoughts. Tell me, what were you thinking about that made you so serious?"
Seeing her silly look, Shen Jinchen couldn't help but smile.
"You're thinking about how to spend your money. Prime Minister Shen hasn't forgotten what you promised us before we entered the palace, has he?"
Cen Xi glared at him irritably and raised her eyebrows to remind him.
