Chapter 38 Liu Zhaoyi's Wine
Shen Yuling was also quietly observing another enemy - Liu Zhaoyi, who had given Liu Jingyi a lot of help.
In the original owner's previous life, Liu Zhaoyi drugged the original owner at this birthday banquet.
The original owner thought he was just drunk, so he went out to get some fresh air to sober up.
But I never expected that my consciousness was becoming less and less clear.
She was even led by a palace maid and took off her clothes in the pavilion without knowing what was going on.
Fortunately, Liu Zhaoyi did not take the matter to the extreme at that time.
I think Liu Jingyi didn't hate the original owner so much at that time. She just wanted Feng Moheng to feel disgusted with the original owner.
In addition, the original owner was a member of the Shen family. If the matter really got out of hand and His Majesty started investigating, it would be difficult for Liu Zhaoyi to clean up the mess.
So in the end, only His Majesty, Concubine Liu, the Princess, Prince Lingyang and other people who should have discovered the original owner's ugly behavior saw the embarrassing scene one by one.
Quan Mingheben brought the daughter of the Shen family to Beijing as a hostage.
Naturally, he didn't want to bring shame to the Shen family and the Ye family because of a woman, so he forced himself to keep the matter secret and not let it be made public.
After the original owner woke up, he was depressed for a long time because of this incident.
A heart full of grievances and shame almost overwhelmed her completely.
But Feng Moheng's liking for the original owner was just to anger Liu Jingyi and make her jealous.
Therefore, Liu Jingyi's calculations did not affect Feng Moheng's continued display of so-called love for the original owner.
However, Liu Jingyi mistakenly thought that Feng Moheng didn't mind that the original owner brought shame to the Prince's Mansion because he truly liked her.
As a result, he used even more cruel methods against the original owner.
only……
Shen Yuling was secretly confused.
If Feng Moheng didn't like the original owner, why did he consummate the marriage with her?
Even let the original owner have a child?
Why, after having a child, did he become so heartless, watching the original owner die tragically in the raging fire?
These thoughts always lingered in Shen Yuling's lowered eyes.
Well, there will always be a time when the truth will be revealed.
And tonight, the most important person is Liu Zhaoyi.
When Liu Jingyi passed by the peony garden that day, she was overly stimulated by her, which was different from the original owner's situation at that time.
I really don't know what kind of sinister means Liu Zhaoyi will use to deal with her tonight.
While Shen Yuling was thinking.
The royal family and ministers began to present gifts to His Majesty.
The first to present gifts was Princess Xihe. As the emperor's elder sister, she was deeply loved by the emperor and had an extremely noble status.
Then there was Prince Lingyang Feng Moheng, who had benefited from the glory of Princess Xihe.
Feng Moheng stood up calmly.
Shen Yuling followed him silently, keeping his head down from beginning to end.
Before, when Quan Minghe heard Shen Yuling say in person that she and her husband, Prince Lingyang, would celebrate his birthday together, his face darkened.
And now, the scene described by Shen Yuling appeared before his eyes.
He had never seen Shen Yuling and Feng Moheng together.
But even though they were standing side by side so politely now, Quan Minghe felt a surge of violence in his heart.
Quan Minghe's eyes became more and more profound.
The desire to immediately drive Feng Moheng out of Ganjing became stronger and stronger.
Fortunately, he is not worried about any affair between Feng Moheng and Shen Yuling.
Quan Minghe sneered inwardly.
Let's wait until Feng Moheng leaves Ganjing before removing the poison from his body.
During this period of time, I can only let my nephew suffer, but I can't let myself suffer.
Quan Minghe still maintained a dignified and steady look on his face.
He just stared at the two people who were saluting below with eyes as deep as the abyss.
Shen Yuling never looked up.
She didn't want to anger Kwon Myung Hyuk.
Quan Minghe should not vent his anger on her, but should go and mess with Feng Moheng.
Feng Moheng's eyes met with His Majesty's.
I always feel that there is something indescribable weird in my uncle's eyes tonight.
But when I think about it carefully, I can't tell what's wrong.
Just when Feng Moheng and Shen Yuling had finished presenting their gifts and were about to return to their seats, Liu Zhaoyi suddenly spoke.
She turned her head slightly.
She said to His Majesty in a tender voice: "Your Majesty, I never thought that the Princess of the County would be so beautiful."
"Your Majesty originally issued an edict to grant the marriage, betrothing this beautiful woman to the Prince of Lingyang. Now it seems that the Prince and his wife are truly a match made in heaven."
Quan Minghe's dark eyes seemed to be able to drip ink.
Shen Yuling still kept her head down.
She tried her best to hold back, fearing that she would burst out laughing.
This Liu Zhaoyi really knows how to make herself hated by Quan Minghe.
Quan Minghe said nothing.
Shen Yuling didn't want to take the lead now, and even less wanted to answer Liu Zhaoyi's question.
Let Feng Moheng answer.
Feng Moheng's expression was calm and composed, and he spoke in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your praise. It is a great blessing for me and my wife to be married by Your Majesty. I hope that my wife and I can support each other, abide by our duties, be loyal to Your Majesty, serve our dynasty, and live up to Your Majesty's grace."
Liu Zhaoyi nodded gently.
Then his eyes fell on Shen Yuling, who had been keeping her head down.
"Princess, I am only the daughter of a civil official. I have heard of the many heroic deeds of the Grand Protector-General in the battles with Your Majesty, and I admire him very much."
"I am honored to meet the Princess today. It is as if I have met the Grand Protector in person."
Shen Yuling, who was named, was helpless.
He had no choice but to raise his head, force a smile on the corner of his mouth, and look at Liu Zhaoyi with a fake smile.
She didn't even dare to glance towards Quan Minghe.
"Your Majesty, you are too kind. My father has fought in battles all his life, and everything he did was his duty. It is an honor for the Shen family to have the trust of Your Majesty."
Shen Yuling paused and blurted out words of praise.
"Your Majesty was born in a family of civil officials, so her talent is extraordinary. Now she is the head of the harem, and she is both virtuous and kind. I am glad to meet her today. It is just as the rumors say, she is graceful and elegant."
Liu Zhaoyi secretly sighed in her heart that the daughter of the Shen family was indeed difficult to deal with and she was very careful with her words.
But because of the praise, the smile on her face became even brighter.
But there seemed to be a hint of calculation in his eyes that was difficult to understand.
"The princess has a really sweet mouth. The Grand Protector has made great achievements in battle and has made remarkable contributions."
"Today is the birthday banquet for His Majesty, but the Grand Protector is not here. Could you trouble the Princess to drink a cup with me on behalf of the Grand Protector?"
When Shen Yuling heard this, she was sure that Liu Zhaoyi had no good intentions.
They also said that father had made great military achievements, and also said that father did not come to celebrate the birthday of Your Majesty.
Since she was drinking on behalf of her father, she didn't even have a reason to ask Feng Moheng to help her drink.
She didn't have time to think of a suitable excuse to refuse.
A palace maid came over, holding a tray in her hand, on which was a glass of wine.
But can you just drink Liu Zhaoyi's wine?
The original owner drank the wine that Liu Zhaoyi had drugged.
Shen Yuling stared at the glass of wine and gritted her teeth.
But he could only reach out and pick up the wine glass.
She held the wine glass, staring at the wine, but she didn't dare to bring it to her lips.
But in this situation, everyone's eyes are on her.
She couldn't find any reason to refuse the drink.
When the high-ranking concubines in the harem saw Liu Zhaoyi's behavior, they couldn't help but feel ashamed.
It would have been fine if Concubine Liu had been secretly plotting against the concubines in the harem, but now she is actually using such means on the Princess of the County.
It goes without saying that it was because of her sister who was a concubine in the Prince's Mansion.
However, although these concubines were aware of what Liu Zhaoyi had done, and either felt disgust or hatred for her, they all maintained an attitude of not caring about it.
Liu Zhaoyi's power in the harem is extremely huge, and it is not easy for others to resist it.
The two princes she gave birth to alone were enough to make His Majesty's heart lean towards Liu Zhaoyi.
Who dares to provoke her easily?
