Now that things have turned out this way, I'm sure she's unhappy and I'm really worried about her.
"Sister Wen, no need..." Shen Zhiyi wanted to refuse.
She felt incredibly happy at that moment, having turned the Marquis's mansion upside down.
"Let Qingqing stay with you. Your parents and brothers are not in the capital. I am worried about you living alone in the Duke's mansion." The Empress Dowager spoke, and Shen Zhiyi could only nod in agreement.
The Empress Dowager comforted her for a few words, but was also furious that the Marquis of Xuanhua's family had gone too far in bullying them. Now they had ended up like this, which was their own fault. She seemed to suddenly think of something and looked to the side: "Xuan Ce."
"Empress Dowager."
"So you knew all along that Lady Hou was having an affair?"
"Just happened to run into them."
"Just...coincidentally?"
The Empress Dowager had watched Zhou Xuance grow up and knew his temperament well, so she always felt that this matter was not simple.
As they were talking, the carriage arrived at the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. Zhou Xuance got out of the carriage first.

Chen Zhiyi's breathing became slightly heavy, and she subconsciously turned her head to meet Chen Zhiyi's gaze.
Above his mask, the dark holes where his eyes were were obscured, making it impossible to discern any expression. Yet, the invisible pressure and all-seeing scrutiny made her body tense up instinctively.
He really did...
They all know!
She didn't say anything, but silently got off the carriage and quickly pulled her hand away from Zhou Xuance's.
When Wen Qing got out of the carriage, Zhou Xuance had already stepped aside and made no attempt to help him.
Wen Qing was perceptive; she glanced at the Regent, then at Shen Zhiyi…
