“Your Highness, how can such a vulgar woman, raised in the countryside, be worthy of being the Princess Consort of Jin? She is truly unworthy of you!”
Seeing that Shen Yuan hadn't followed, the eunuch behind Xiao Yunfei whispered a word of advice.
“She is indeed unworthy.” Xiao Yunfei stood with his hands behind his back, glancing back at the eunuch behind him: “But besides her and Shen Yunjin, does Shen Wei have a third daughter?”
"this……"
The eunuch couldn't answer.
Xiao Yunfei sneered and flicked his sleeves twice, saying, "Shen Wei's two daughters are so badly stupid, one is as dumb as a pig and the other is so vulgar, there's no one to choose from."
The "vulgar and uncouth" Shen Yuan, clutching her long skirt, ran wildly.
She stopped a passing maid and, upon hearing that Xiao Yunyan had taken everyone to Xunfang Pavilion, immediately rushed there.
But she was ultimately a step too late.
The tightly closed door of Xunfang Pavilion was pushed open.
When Shen Yuan arrived, all she heard was, "What a huge bed!"
Her heart sank, and she rushed into the room, where she saw Shen Yunjin lying on the bed, her clothes completely off.
Xiao Yuncheng had already put on his outer robe, but Shen Yunjin hadn't had time to put on her clothes because her dress had fallen off the bed, so she could only wrap herself in the quilt.
She gave Xiao Yuncheng several pleading looks, but he seemed not to see them.
Xiao Yunyan sat down on the round chair and glared angrily at Xiao Yuncheng: "Royal brother, how could you roll around on the bed with Miss Shen here?"
"Today is my Hundred Flowers Banquet, how am I supposed to explain this to General Shen?"
"General Shen broke off his engagement with you in front of the entire court for the sake of his beloved daughter. You two are no longer engaged, so why are you still entangled with each other?"
"Brother, you've really lost your mind!"
Xiao Yunyan was furious: "Hurry up and pack your things, then come with me to see the Emperor and apologize to him!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunyan stepped forward and said, "Royal elder sister, I know I was wrong. But Miss Shen and I are in love, and I am willing to take responsibility for her. I will go to the palace now and implore Father to grant us a marriage!"
Xiao Yunyan sighed deeply, "Since that's the case, then so be it. I will go to the palace with you to report this matter to Father Emperor."
The siblings made their decision and then left.
Shen Yunjin didn't even get a word in edgewise.
As soon as Xiao Yunyan and Xiao Yuncheng left, everyone remaining in the room turned their attention to Shen Yunjin. Seeing her disheveled hair and exposed shoulders, whispers arose among the crowd.
"General Shen's illustrious reputation has been completely ruined by his youngest daughter! What a pity!"
"Indeed! Who would have thought that the daughter of the indomitable General Zhenbei would be such a dissolute woman who indulges in debauchery in broad daylight? It's truly ironic!"
"They really don't care about the location. Look at this bed, it's so simple, even a prostitute probably wouldn't want to sleep in it, but Miss Shen doesn't mind at all!"
Xunfang Pavilion was originally the flower room of the princess's residence, used to grow flowers. Because it was close to Jingxin Lake, the room was vacated for the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and a bed was temporarily placed there for those who were tired today to rest.
They never expected that Shen Yunjin and Xiao Yuncheng would use it as their "wedding bed".
They simply couldn't bear to look directly at the bed!
Shen Yunjin heard these whispers and, clutching her blanket tightly, trembled with anger: "What are you talking about?"
"It's nothing, we just wanted to congratulate Miss Shen on achieving her wish and marrying His Highness the Crown Prince! This is an unparalleled honor! Miss Shen is so lucky!"
Hearing this, Shen Yunjin raised her eyes smugly.
Although today's events happened suddenly, and she was somewhat rushed and flustered, she ultimately got what she wanted!
Her brother, the Crown Prince, was willing to take responsibility for her, and she had already given herself to him. Even if her father was unwilling, he had no choice but to let her marry into the Crown Prince's household!
Her father was the General Who Guards the North, a high-ranking official of the second rank in the imperial court, who held military power. With such a family background, she would definitely marry into the Crown Prince's residence as the Crown Princess!
So what if today's events are publicized?
So what if she is looked down upon by these noble ladies and young women from aristocratic families in the capital?
When she becomes the Crown Princess and then the Empress, second only to the Emperor, she will cut out the tongues of anyone who dares to speak ill of her. Then, no one will dare to mention what happened today!
Seeing Shen Yunjin's smug look, the others lost interest. In addition, there was an unpleasant smell in the room, so they didn't want to stay a moment longer and left after watching the show.
Only Shen Yuan and Bai Zhi remained, standing behind the door.
Shen Yunjin noticed Shen Yuan and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, but she quickly calmed down and yelled at Shen Yuan, "Get out! I told you to get out!"
Shen Yuan did not leave. She walked towards Shen Yunjin, picked up her clothes that had fallen under the bed and on the floor, and threw them onto the bed.
"Hurry up and get dressed, then come back to the manor with me!"
Shen Yunjin picked up the clothes and haphazardly put them on.
After getting dressed, Shen Yunjin said to Shen Yuan, "When we get home, I advise you not to talk nonsense in front of your father. I will tell him about today's events myself. There's no need for you to exaggerate."
Shen Yuan: "A man who truly loves you would never be intimate with you in a place like this. Shen Yunjin, he's taking revenge on you. Can't you see that yet?"
Shen Yunjin suddenly laughed: "I know he's half sincere and half fake towards me, but so what? Even if it's honey mixed with poison, I'll still accept it willingly."
Shen Yuan thought she was stupid, but she was the smartest person in the world.
She never wanted Xiao Yuncheng as a person, but rather the position of Crown Princess.
Whether Xiao Yuncheng loves her or not is irrelevant! All she wants is the position of Crown Princess!
