Shen Wangshu returned to his palace, changed his clothes, and then hurried back.
However, in the darkness that she didn't notice, a pair of eyes were staring at her silently until she disappeared into the night.
As soon as she sat down, the concubine next to her spoke in a sarcastic tone.
"Oh, Concubine Shu has been out for so long, where did you go to have fun? If there is such a wonderful place in the palace, you might as well tell us about it."
Shen Wangshu lazily leaned back in his chair, looking at Concubine Shu's sarcastic expression, and couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips in mockery. "Sister Concubine Shu, what are you saying? I just went out for a walk, how can I talk about being so cool?"
"I'd like to advise my sister that you should always maintain a positive attitude. Otherwise, if you're always in a bad mood, you'll easily become sullen, and the wrinkles around your eyes will increase, making you look older, which is not good."
As Concubine Shu listened to her series of criticisms, her face suddenly turned purple and blue, and she finally managed to say, "Shu Guifei's little mouth is much more powerful than before, and she has become more clever."
Shen Wangshu smiled, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip.
"Well, I have to thank you for your reminder, sister. But since you care so much about me, I am naturally grateful."
Concubine Shu was choked by her and her face turned pale.
She gritted her teeth and finally turned her head to the side.
I cursed inwardly: "Fox charmer, how long can you keep your complacency? What good is a hen that can't lay eggs, no matter how beautiful it is? When you are old and ugly, you will cry.
Shen Wangshu naturally couldn't hear this. If she had heard it, she would definitely have smiled and replied, "When I'm old and ugly, I guess it will be a problem whether my sister is still around."
But she was in a good mood at the moment.
Instead of wasting your own energy, it is better to go crazy and waste others’ energy.
After the banquet, the old emperor called Prince Chen to his palace to reminisce about the past, and the others returned to their palaces.
On his way back to the palace, Shen Wangshu was stopped by an unexpected person.
"Wangshu, long time no see."
A familiar voice came from behind her, and Shen Wangshu turned around suddenly.
I saw a man wrapped in a moon-white brocade robe, with a slender figure and handsome face.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, "Is there something wrong, Your Highness?"
"Wangshu, so much time has passed, are you still holding a grudge against me?"
Li Yuanche sighed helplessly.
"Haha, what you said is a bit ridiculous. What else do you think there is to talk about between us?" Shen Wangshu replied with a forced smile.
She didn't like Li Yuanche's hypocritical face.
Such hypocritical people often have vicious hearts.
Li Yuanche wasn't annoyed. He slowly took a few steps towards Shen Wangshu. "Whether you believe it or not, I was helpless at the time, and I want you to be happy more than anyone else. After all, we once had a friendship, didn't we?"
Chen Wangshu sneered, "I had a relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? How could I not know? The previous Chen Wangshu is no longer in this world. Please, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, don't bring up the past again."
Besides, I am your father's concubine after all. According to the rules, the prince should address me as Consort Shu.
If he hadn't nodded at the beginning, how could Shen Wangshu appear in this harem?
The most disgusting thing is the man who sells his wife for fame and then shows his deep affection.
"Wangshu, are you really going to be so heartless?"
Li Yuanche's eyes darkened a little, and his voice revealed a hint of sadness.
Shen Wangshu sneered, "Heartless? If we talk about heartless, who can compare to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Her eyes were clear and bright, without any sign of evasion.
Li Yuanche shook his head bitterly. "Back then, I was just a prince whose maternal family had fallen from power. I had no right to refuse my father's request. Besides, you are now a high-ranking imperial concubine, enjoying endless favors. Plus, it's been three years. Can't we just let go of the grudge?"
Let go of your grudges?
Shen Wangshu raised his eyebrows and asked back.
"Yes, let go of your grudges!"
"Hahaha, Your Highness is truly ridiculous. Anyone has the right to say this, except Your Highness."
Li Yuanche was stunned.
"Wangshu..."
"Prince, please go back. I am about to return to the palace as well."
After Shen Wangshu finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, but Li Yuanche behind him grabbed his arm tightly.
Shen Wangshu frowned and shook off Li Yuanche's grip.
Li Yuanche's face was a little embarrassed. He pursed his lips tightly, a hint of darkness flashed across his eyes. Finally, he uttered softly, "Wangshu, I know I was wrong back then. But I didn't think too much about it at the time. If I had known that what happened that day would cause you so much harm, I would never have done it even if I died."
After hearing this, Shen Wangshu sneered and said nothing.
Li Yuanche continued to explain, "After you left, I couldn't sleep every night. You were all on my mind. I spent every day in regret, blaming myself, and worrying about whether you were doing well in the palace..."
"stop!"
Shen Wangshu decisively interrupted his performance.
"Your Highness, please don't worry about my affairs. Please focus more on yourself."
After Shen Wangshu finished speaking, he was about to walk around him and leave.
However, Li Yuanche stopped him again.
There was a hint of impatience between Li Yuanche's brows, but he concealed it well.
He lowered his brows and looked at the woman in front of him, his voice a little hoarse, "Wangshu, I have always regretted the past three years. I have also been looking for an opportunity to apologize to you.
