The Queen's words made Shen Yuerong want to laugh, and she chuckled softly with her handkerchief covering her lips.
"The Emperor's sister-in-law is really kind-hearted. She has made plans for our family. However, there are many concubines in the palace, and it seems that each of them is very worry-free."
"I'm afraid there are too few people, so the emperor's sister-in-law feels a little lonely, so she said such words."
"I am a simple person and I don't like too many people in my house. What's more, I don't like other women around my husband. I told my husband about this when we got married, and he agreed."
When the queen heard this, she was extremely jealous, but she still agreed.
"How can a man really keep his word? If he says yes today, he might think you are not virtuous enough tomorrow."
"For things like this, we have to take the initiative to help them plan, so as to avoid discord between the couple in the future. I am doing this for your own good."
He tried to comfort her with a sincere look.
The eyes of several noble ladies nearby flashed, and they surrounded Shen Yuerong with a buzz of chatter.
Shen Yuerong sat in the center, looking calm and composed, as if nothing could affect her.
"What the Imperial Sister-in-law said is right. A man's words cannot be trusted for matters like this, so I asked my husband to sign a contract."
"If you can't do it, then divorce me and leave the house. Anyway, I've already been divorced once, so I'm not afraid of another divorce."
The atmosphere around them suddenly fell into a strange silence. Some people envied Shen Yuerong's carefree attitude, while others felt that Shen Yuerong was forcing a smile.
She might have been despised by Chi Mu for a long time.
The queen raised a sneer and said, "Sister, don't think these things are so simple."
"If I get old and lose my beauty, and get abandoned, it would be so pitiful to support myself in my old age. Wouldn't that be a joke?"
Shen Yuerong didn't even look at the queen, "I have money on hand, so I don't have to worry about these things. When I get old, I will be surrounded by servants. If I have money, I will have real estate and shops."
"Even if I die, I will die surrounded by silk and satin, rather than being alone and helpless."
Suddenly, Shen Yuerong raised her eyes to look at the queen, patted her shoulder, sighed and spoke.
"Sister-in-law, sometimes women should have some things in their own hands, and don't be silly and only give to men."
"Instead of worrying about it, I'd rather think about the future and give birth to a prince for His Majesty as soon as possible. This is the most important thing."
"As for the affairs in my mansion, if you feel that what I said is wrong, you can go and ask the prince. I believe he will give you a satisfactory answer."
When those noble ladies heard Chi Mu's name, they couldn't help but tremble all over.
Chi Mu is a demon-like existence, and asking them to ask Chi Mu is simply asking for trouble.
They only dared to attack Shen Yuerong to test her tolerance level.
If she is easy to provoke, it would be a good idea to start from her to gain power for my family in the future.
The Queen was so angry at Shen Yuerong's words that she almost cursed, but she had to consider the mother of a country and could not show jealousy, so she could only smile awkwardly.
"Sister-in-law is just saying these words out of anger now. When you are old and ugly and can no longer keep the prince, then everything will be too late."
"Look, these ladies all have daughters of marriageable age. Each one is sensible and beautiful. If you marry one of them home, they will behave themselves and will never compete with you or get jealous."
"Would you like to consider it?"
Although Shen Yuerong had already expressed her attitude frankly, the Queen still insisted on introducing Shen Yuerong.
Shen Yuerong raised a sneer at the corner of her mouth, looking at the queen in front of her, and was about to speak when she heard her next sentence.
"If you think it's okay, I'll ask them to go to the palace some other day. It's a good opportunity to see the majesty of the palace and get familiar with it."
Shen Yuerong glanced at her, the smile on her lips becoming colder, "Have you ever given me a chance to refuse?"
The queen just smiled and said, "I am discussing this with you. I am doing this for your own good."
"From now on, we are all sisters-in-law, all for the royal inheritance, right? I'm sure the Queen Mother doesn't want to see such a scene."
She directly threatened the Queen Mother, and Shen Yuerong smiled coldly.
At this point, it's impossible for her to disagree.
Shen Yuerong smiled calmly, "I don't have any opinion on this matter, you can go ask the prince."
"Look, here he comes."
Shen Yuerong pointed in the direction of the corridor, and saw Chi Mu walking towards her with his head held high, exuding a cold look.
He came and stood beside Shen Yuerong, with his hands behind his back, his whole body exuding a terrifying, majestic and murderous aura.
"I wonder what the emperor's sister-in-law wants to do here?"
His voice was so cold that it made people shudder subconsciously.
The queen hurriedly explained, "I was discussing some palace matters with my brother and sister-in-law."
"Your Highness is very busy. If you are too busy, you don't need to bother with this matter."
She didn't dare to say anything to Chi Mudu at all. It would be terrible if he held a grudge against her accidentally.
For this kind of thing, it is better to start with Shen Yuerong.
"It's okay, I just pulled my sister-in-law to talk."
"Sister-in-law, am I right?"
The Queen desperately cast a look at Shen Yuerong for help.
Seeing this, Shen Yuerong drank her tea slowly and spoke slowly.
"The Queen's sister-in-law really just wanted to talk to me."
When the queen heard this, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but then her heart beat faster again.
"However, the Empress's sister-in-law said that the mansion is too empty and we should add some sisters to help the prince expand his family, so that the prince will not resent me."
