Chapter 130 Perfect Match
Knowing what Xie Jingyu was going to call Yunshi, Shen Wan had never seen such a shameless person. How could he call out that in front of so many people?
Unable to bear the shame, she decisively pulled her own mother away.
Seeing Shen Wan's face, neck, and ears flushed, Yun smiled and said, "The imperial decree has granted the marriage, and the wedding date has been set. It's okay to announce it a little earlier."
"mother!"
Shen Wan was so embarrassed that she stamped her feet.
Well, Xie Jingyu climbed over the wall to find Chen Wan, and scared Shen Wan so much that she didn't even dare to stay in the boudoir. He wanted Shen Wan to kiss him, and Shen Wan slapped him. Yun also knew about this.
Yun really wanted to tell her not to slap anyone next time, but she didn't know how to say it. Her daughter was already shy, and if she knew about it, both Shen Ji and she would probably be so embarrassed that she would crawl into a hole.
Her daughter is dignified and reserved, and will not do anything beyond the rules, so she doesn't need to be reminded too much.
After they walked away, Shen Wan finally let go of Yun's arm and went to see Queen Song.
In the pavilion, Queen Song sat in the middle, Concubine Zhao and Concubine Li sat on both sides, Princess Qi Yang, Princess Qing, the wife of Duke Song and others sat in the pavilion with them, talking and laughing.
Yun came forward with Chen Wan and Shen Ti and saluted Queen Song.
Queen Song smiled and said, "No need for formalities. Miss Shen Er and Prince Jingbei have done a great service in saving the emperor and keeping him safe. I am deeply grateful to them."
"Has the wedding date of Second Miss Shen and Prince Jingbei been set?"
Yun replied, "She will be married on the eighth day of next month."
Queen Song nodded, "I think Miss Shen and the Prince of Jingbei are a perfect match, made in heaven. No wonder the Emperor granted them marriage."
If she hadn't known that Queen Song and Xiao Yun were planning to take over the Shen Ji and Yun families and had set their sights on her, Shen Wan would have really thought that Queen Song truly thought she and Xie Jingyu were a good match.
It was just a prelude to plotting against her. Since he truly felt that she and Xie Jingyu were a good match, he naturally wouldn't try to force her into marriage by making it a fait accompli.
Thinking of his previous life, Shen Wanyun couldn't help but clench his sleeves.
Queen Song was praising her in the front, and a bunch of noble ladies followed behind, praising her one after another, and the praise was so profound that it was unparalleled in the world. Yun said, "How can I bear such praise from the Queen and the noble ladies?"
Chen Wan felt that none of these people were sincere in their praise. It was a well-known fact in Kyoto that she was not good at playing the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, or songs. How could she be a good match for Xie Jingyu?
But being praised, her face inevitably turned red. Shen Wan was ready to go to the lakeside to cool down in the breeze. Just as she was about to bow and leave, a palace maid came in and said, "Your Majesty, it's time to take your seat."
Going to see the Queen Mother took quite a while. She wanted to find her elder sister, who must have come to the palace today. She also wanted to see the koi fish that she used to feed in her previous life, but it seemed that she had no chance today.
Queen Song smiled and said, "Then please take your seat."
She raised her hand, and the palace maid helped her up. Shen Wan stepped aside and waited until everyone had left before following Yun out of the pavilion.
When I walked out of the pavilion, I saw Chen Yu.
This palace banquet was held in Ruian Palace. Shen Wan sat behind Shen Ji and Yun Shi. Xie Jingyu was just across from her. Her eldest brother was also sitting there, so she could see him at a glance.
Shen Ti and Shen Wan sat at the same table, while Shen Wu and the Second Madam sat together.
The hall was noisy and bustling, but it suddenly became quiet when a drake's voice was heard.
"The Emperor has arrived!"
Everyone stood up and knelt to salute the emperor.
The emperor sat down and said, "Everyone, get up."
Everyone stood up and sat down.
As the music started, the dancers came on stage to perform.
The palace maids served melons, fruits and snacks. Looking at the exquisite and tempting cakes and fruits on the colorful porcelain plates, Shen Wan didn't dare to touch them.
Knowing that this palace banquet was aimed at her, she naturally had to be extra careful with what she ate and drank. Although Chen Wan felt that Queen Song would not directly put drugs in tea and food, it was better to be safe than sorry.
Shen Wan didn't dare to eat it, and neither did Shen Ti.
Fortunately, the singing and dancing were beautiful, so it was worth the trip to the palace.
Shen Wan sat there, earnestly appreciating the singing and dancing. Occasionally, she would listen to the ministers and the emperor talking. After about half an hour, the palace maid came over to add tea and whispered, "Princess Jiangling asked me to tell Miss Shen Er that she is waiting for you outside the palace."
Without waiting for Shen Wan to speak, the palace maid left after delivering the message.
Shen Wan's brows were twisted into knots. She knew that Queen Song and Xiao Yun would definitely find ways to get rid of her, but why did they use Princess Jiangling as an excuse?
Shen Wan looked behind Prince Yong and Princess Yong, and found that Princess Jiangling, who had been sitting there before, had left the table at some point.
Shen Wan was sure that even if Princess Jiangling had something wrong, she would not wait to call her away from the palace banquet to tell her, but where did Princess Jiangling go? Shen Wan was worried.
She didn't dare to go find Princess Jiangling, but she didn't dare to be careless either. If something happened to Princess Jiangling, how would she explain to her elder brother?
Chen Wan decisively looked towards his eldest brother, but Chen Li was not watching the singing and dancing, but was talking to the eldest young master of the Minister of War's Mansion sideways. Chen Wan looked for a long time, but his eldest brother didn't even turn his head back. Shen Wan was so angry that she wished she could twist her eldest brother's head back.
Is talking to the eldest young master of the Minister of War's Mansion more interesting than watching a dancer dance? Shen Wan was so angry.
You're unreliable when something goes wrong. Can you be a little more reliable?!
Shen Wan was about to ask the palace maid to help her find her elder brother, but when she looked away, she caught a glimpse of Xie Jingyu, who was looking at her.
...If the eldest brother is unreliable, you can also find Xie Jingyu.
She and Xie Jingyu were married by imperial decree, and Xiao Yun was plotting against her in the same way he was plotting against Xie Jingyu.
Chen Wan looked straight at Xie Jingyu.
Chu Yang, who was sitting behind Xie Jingyu, smiled when he saw this and said, "Looking at you like that, could it be that your sister-in-law is angry because you watched the dancers dance?"
"She's not like that."
Would Chen Wan care about him watching the dancers dance? Even if the sun rose from the west, that wouldn't be possible.
But why she was looking at him, Xie Jingyu couldn't guess.
Looking for him?
She has always been unable to avoid him.
Chen Wan stared at Xie Jingyu without blinking, her eyes sore from looking at him. She didn't know if he understood that she was looking for him. There was no way, so she hooked her finger at him.
Xie Jingyu, “…”
The black line on my forehead kept falling down.
There was laughter behind him, and his shoulders were patted twice. Not only he saw Shen Wan's little gesture, but Chu Yang and Prince Yuzhang also saw it.
Shen Wan was sure that Xie Jingyu had seen it, so he didn't dare to delay any longer and got up to find Princess Jiangling.
Shen Wan stepped out of Rui'an Palace, but there was no sign of Princess Jiangling outside. A palace maid happened to pass by, so Shen Wan asked, "Have you seen Princess Jiangling of Prince Yong's Mansion?"
The maid raised her hand and pointed, "Princess Jiangling went that way. Miss Shen Er wants to find her. This servant can lead the way."
Instead of helping her find Princess Jiangling, he took her to find her.
Looking for Princess Jiangling is fake, taking her to see Xiao Yun is the real thing.
Shen Wan glanced back and saw a sky blue brocade robe coming out. She turned around decisively and said, "Then I'll trouble you."
