Shen Qingyan sneered.
Why else?
I have been following the imperial edict.
She didn't explain much, waved her hand, and asked the servant to leave.
Mrs. Shen was standing by, looking worried: "Daughter, are you really going to marry Ye Jinghong?"
"He's just a director of the Ministry of Personnel, a mere sixth-rank official. How can he be worthy of your status as the daughter of the Prime Minister!"
"Besides, I was originally going to match this marriage up with your half-sister, Shen Zhiyi." She lamented, "How could you be so foolish? You could be the Crown Princess, but you chose to go to that humble family!"
"Do I really have to live a life of counting my monthly salary from now on?"
"How can you be so cruel as to ask your mother to do that?"
"No, I don't agree with this marriage at all."
"Mom!" Shen Qingyan said anxiously, "Just listen to me! Ye Jinghong will have a great future!"
Seeing that Mrs. Shen was still dissatisfied, she gritted her teeth and said, "My daughter had a dream yesterday."
"In the dream, Ye Jinghong was a first-rank official, with great power over the government and the country."
"On the contrary, the prince..." She lowered her voice, "The green lamp and ancient Buddha, the end of this life."
"Your Majesty, although you haven't given up on trying to persuade the Crown Prince to return to secular life, as time goes by, you will realize that some things are fruitless."
"The power of the court is ultimately in the hands of Ye Jinghong."
"Although my daughter finally became the Crown Princess in her dream, he locked her up in the underground palace of the Buddhist temple every day, leading a life without light."
"He was pure and sincere during the day, but at night, he became a completely different person: cold, irritable, and out of control. He even forced his daughter to recite Buddhist scriptures."
"He's a complete lunatic!"
"If it weren't for His Majesty protecting me for my father's sake and frequently sending people to visit me in the Buddhist temple, I would have been tortured to death by him!"
"Compared to a life like this, being the wife of a sixth-rank official is simply a great blessing!"
Shen Qingyan thought about it and trembled with fear. She threw herself into Madam Shen's arms and said, "Mother, please believe me!"
"I really don't want to be a crown princess in name only anymore."
"That's the real fire pit!"
Mrs. Shen was shocked when she heard this.
But because what she said made so much sense, I couldn't help but believe it a little more.
She touched Shen Qingyan's head and sighed.
"It's just fate, that's all."
"Your concubine sister got a good deal." A hint of viciousness flashed across her eyes.
It took her a lot of effort to spread the fate of Shen Zhiyi, a scourge to the country, to all the powerful families without anyone noticing.
Thus, her good marriage was ruined.
But somehow, this news also reached the ears of the emperor.
Others avoid Shen Zhiyi like the plague, but for the emperor, her fate is like timely help, and she comes at the right time!
He was worried that he couldn't find someone to seduce the prince!
Who can resist such a stunningly beautiful woman?
After meeting Shen Zhiyi, he immediately decided to send her to Duanyun Temple.
This actually implicated her and she was scolded by the master.
Saying that she didn't consider the Prime Minister's Mansion ruined Shen Zhiyi's reputation and also made him lose a bargaining chip for the court's mediation.
She was also punished to kneel in the ancestral hall for several days.
Mrs. Shen was shocked when she thought of this.
Could it be that Shen Zhiyi was the one who delivered this news to the palace? !
Her face turned pale instantly.
I was tricked by this little slut again!
Madam Shen was furious: "Your concubine sister is good at acting and has a foxy appearance. If she really seduces you and becomes the Crown Princess, will we, mother and daughter, have a good life in the future?"
"Don't worry, mother." Shen Qingyan said, "The prince hates women, especially those like Shen Zhiyi."
"I tried many times in my dreams, but it never worked."
"It's even less likely that she will succeed."
Shen Qingyan knew it clearly.
In that real dream, she was able to stay with the prince because of something called the heroine's halo.
No one else is allowed to get close to him.
It is even more impossible to stay in a Buddhist temple.
She snorted and laughed, raised the corners of her lips and said, "Just wait and see."
"Within three days, she will be kicked out of the Buddhist temple!"
"Maybe we can't even stay overnight!"
