She has calmed down enough, and now she can only take it one step at a time.
At dinner, the table was full of her favorite dishes, as well as fruit wine that Ye Shan had prepared for her.
It's the drink her mother loved to have, but unfortunately she hasn't had it much since getting married.
Ye Shan explained, "This wine comes from Hecheng, which is far from the capital. It was ordered by the Prince on the day the Lady's memorial tablet was sent to the ancestral hall, and it was only transported back to the capital today. If the Princess Consort likes it, I will buy more."
Su Wenyuan looked at Sheng Jingyu in surprise. This wine was so troublesome, and it had been ordered a long time ago.
She thought it was prepared today as an apology to her.
"Your Highness, if you do this, I'll be quite touched." Su Wenyuan picked up the wine pot and poured a cup for both of them.
Sheng Jingyu smiled and said calmly, "If you are truly moved, tell me before you do anything next time, so I will know what to do."
Su Wenyuan said firmly, "Alright, I plan to go back to the Prime Minister's residence tomorrow. I don't know what I'll be doing, so you'd better be prepared."
Sheng Jingyu: "..."
He was just saying it casually; Su Wenyuan didn't need to go along with it.
"Let's wait two more days. The Empress Dowager is busy dealing with those two girls, and there's a lot of gossip about your actions. If you cause any more trouble now, the Emperor won't forgive you," Sheng Jingyu reminded her.
Su Wenyuan blinked, thinking that what he said made some sense.
I've been causing trouble far too often, it's driving the Emperor crazy. I should probably take a break for a few days.
The most talked-about people in the capital right now are Su Wenyuan and Sheng Jingyu.
Of course, the truth and the facts are somewhat different.
This morning we were saying that Su Wenyuan was ruthless and had scared the two girls so badly they almost went crazy.
Rumors started circulating in the afternoon that the Empress disliked Su Wenyuan and insisted on sending two concubines into the mansion, which Sheng Jingyu refused to do but did not stop.
Su Wenyuan had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure, but she was still very angry. She went to the Emperor to ask for a divorce. When Sheng Jingyu learned of this, he rushed to the palace and said to the Emperor that he would not divorce his wife.
There is no possibility of having any concubines or mistresses in the Prince Chen's residence now.
When Su Lin'er found out, she was furious. Su Wenyuan had married so well!
One after another, the vases and porcelain pieces in the room were broken. Hearing the noise, Wang rushed over.
"What are you doing now? There's only so much stuff in the house, and you're smashing it! If you smash any more, I won't give you any new stuff," Wang scolded sternly.
With red eyes, Su Lin'er asked, "What are you saying about me? Su Wenyuan is wearing jewelry worth hundreds of thousands of yuan. Can't I smash a few vases?"
Thinking about this, Wang felt a pang of heartache.
"Alright, let's not talk about the dowry now, we'll discuss it later." Madam Wang couldn't stand hearing that.
Su Lin'er said angrily, "If we're not going to talk about that, then let's talk about Prince Chen's attitude towards her. The rumors outside aren't false. Everyone thought she would die after marrying him, but what happened?"
Lady Wang rolled her eyes at her and asked, "You were the one who recommended this person to the Crown Prince. That's why the Crown Prince said she was suitable in front of the Emperor. Otherwise, how could she become a princess?"
It was clearly a scheme she conspired with the Crown Prince, and now that she's married into the family, she's making a huge scene.
Su Lin'er glared and said, "I planned this for the Crown Prince's good, but now he's under house arrest because of her. Aren't I just making things worse? Even Consort Wan will hate me."
"So you shouldn't be throwing things around like this now!" Madam Wang slapped her thigh anxiously. "Consort Wan has a problem with you, why aren't you explaining yourself? What's the use of keeping an eye on Su Wenyuan? No matter how harmonious they are, Prince Chen is blind!"
Su Lin'er regained some of her senses. She couldn't bear to see Su Wenyuan doing well, and she even forgot to coax Consort Wan.
Wang continued, "What you need to do is become the Crown Princess, not fixate on Su Wenyuan. Prince Chen is blind. Once the Crown Prince ascends the throne, neither Prince Chen nor Su Wenyuan will have a good ending."
...
General's Mansion.
After being slapped, Lu Wanying barely managed to go to the Crown Prince's residence, but the Crown Prince was under house arrest, with soldiers guarding the gates, and even snacks were not allowed to be delivered.
She could only slink back to her residence. After returning home, she felt ashamed when she thought about the slap she received and how Su Wenyuan had mocked her.
This angered her so much that she didn't eat dinner and cried in her room until her eyes were swollen.
Unlike Su Lin'er, who had her birth mother to take care of her, she could only comfort herself in the end, thinking that there would be plenty of time in the future and she could get her revenge.
That night, many people, both inside and outside the palace, were so angry that they couldn't sleep.
The Crown Prince, Consort Wan, the Empress, and those who couldn't stand to see Su Wenyuan doing well.
The only thing they could console themselves with in the end was that Sheng Jingyu was blind!
If Sheng Jingyu's eyesight were good, he wouldn't even dare to imagine how arrogant Su Wenyuan would be.
Sheng Jingyu, who was still pretending to be blind, wished he were really blind.
Su Wenyuan's alcohol tolerance is terrible!!!
Their drinking habits are even worse!!!
After only a couple of drinks, she started climbing all over him, saying nice things, praising his good looks and saying his temper wasn't so bad.
Yuexiu and Yeshan tried to stop her several times, but she always managed to land on Sheng Jingyu without fail.
“You’re pretty sturdy here!” Su Wenyuan stretched out a finger and poked Sheng Jingyu’s chest repeatedly, her mouth stretching to her ears as she grinned foolishly.
Sheng Jingyu blushed and grabbed her wrist, saying, "Go to sleep."
"Let's go! Together!" Su Wenyuan flipped her wrist, taking the initiative and grabbing Sheng Jingyu's hand.
Sheng Jingyu didn't want to be with her at all, and the people in the room were almost bursting with suppressed laughter.
Ye Shan asked considerately, "Your Highness, would you like a room prepared?"
“No need!” Su Wenyuan spoke first, pulling Sheng Jingyu up and leading her directly into the room.
She had been lusting after Sheng Jingyu's body for a long time, but she didn't have the guts when she was sober. But now that she was drunk, Su Wenyuan was incredibly bold.
But she couldn't even see the road clearly, and after taking only two steps, she started to fall to the other side.
Sheng Jingyu quickly caught her, Ye Shan blocked Yuexiu's view, and asked her to arrange bath water for Su Wenyuan.
Sheng Jingyu brought Su Wenyuan back to her room and began to struggle with a dilemma.
Otherwise, let Yuexiu sleep with her, and she should find another place.
Just as I was thinking about it, Su Wenyuan came up to me again.
This time, instead of touching him indiscriminately, she looked at him pitifully, picked up a piece of white gauze from the side, and clumsily tied it over his eyes.
Sheng Jingyu remained motionless, staring intently at her, not understanding what she meant.
Su Wenyuan muttered, "They all look down on you. It makes me a little sad, but who wouldn't go crazy after suffering such a blow?"
Sheng Jingyu's breath hitched, and her heart seemed to stop beating.
"You need to stay away from those people. They'll laugh at you behind your back. You don't know, but I know everything!" Su Wenyuan felt even more aggrieved.
