The fact that Second Brother Shen left without waiting for his wife to finish her confinement made many people keep an eye on the Shen family, thinking that something was fishy. However, because the Shen family was not easy to provoke, they did not dare to ask directly and could only inquire privately.
Anyway, I don't know how they got it, but soon the word spread that Second Brother Shen disliked his wife, ignored her, their relationship broke down, and they were not getting along. The story was so convincing that even Yan Bao didn't know how to refute it.
Others would have discussed this matter in private, but when Concubine Jiang saw Yan Bao, she stopped him and asked him a question: "I heard that your second brother had a baby boy. I have prepared a gift for the baby. Princess, you can take it back later. It is also a token of my love.

What are you, a princess?
As long as the prince hasn't married you and hasn't become emperor, he still has to give me some face when he sees me.
As Concubine Jiang thought about it, she felt more and more that it was right to punish Yan Bao. If he wasn't taught a lesson, he wouldn't know the rules of the palace.
Yan Bao did not argue, he knelt down as he was told, and looked at Concubine Jiang calmly: "As long as your Majesty is happy."
For some reason, when she was looked at like this, Concubine Jiang suddenly felt cold under her feet and inexplicably uneasy. She wanted to let her get up, but she felt embarrassed, so she knelt down and let her get up. Where was her prestige as a concubine?
