Chapter 515 Replacement
Zhao Xueqing, who had just returned from her mother's house to get some hand warmers, happened to hear this and whispered, "I just heard someone say that she broke her ankle, so she can't play."
Shen Shuyi looked up and saw Shen Jingyu wearing a pink cloak and sitting on a chair in the front with a good view.
I guess the aunt in charge knew that she injured her foot, so she chose a good position for her.
Shen Shuyi retracted his gaze and said softly: "It's quite lively."
Zhao Xueqing didn't understand for a moment: "Lively?"
Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "It's quite lively seeing them coming and going."
Zhao Xueqing came back to her senses and said with a smile, "That's true."
Shen Jingzhen and Lou Yulan were both busy plotting against Shen Jingyu, but Shen Jingyu was not a fool who would be easily tricked.
The two sides fought back and forth, and Shen Shuyi wanted to see who would win this round.
"Greetings, the county lady. The queen invites you over." Aunt Haoyue walked forward.
Shen Shuyi collected his thoughts and said, "Thank you for taking this trip, Auntie. I was thinking of going, but I saw that there were many nobles around the queen, so I was afraid of offending her."
Haoyue smiled and said, "Go quickly. The Queen thought you would join in the fun, so she didn't call you. I didn't expect you didn't even sign up."
When Shen Shuyi followed Aunt Haoyue to the Queen Mother's side, Madam Chen as well as several princesses and palace concubines were basically there.
Mrs. Chen's eyes fell on Shen Shuyi and she smiled and said, "Why didn't Princess Changning come on stage to play with us?"
Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "In reply to Madam Chen's words, I am lazy. It's so cold and I just want to curl up in my room, cover myself with a quilt, and read a storybook. If my good friend and cousin hadn't insisted on dragging me out, I might still be asleep now."
Shen Shuyi's words made everyone laugh.
The Queen Mother's eyes also softened. "You are not someone who likes to show off. If you had not been forced to do so at the court banquet that day, I don't think you would have played the zither. Others don't know that your zither skills are no less than your sister's."
The Queen Mother couldn't help but think of her Changle again.
Changle is just that kind of person, casual and following his heart, but when it comes to something he insists on, he can be terribly stubborn.
The Queen Mother's eyes fell on Shen Shuyi. Seeing that her nose and cheeks were red from the cold, she was dazed for a moment.
Sometimes she feels like...
But Shen Shuyi could clearly let her know that the person in front of her was her, Shen Shuyi, not her Changle.
"Go and get the princess another cloak." The Queen Mother collected her thoughts.
"Thank you, ma'am."
Shen Shuyi stood beside the Queen Mother and had a good view. Many people off the field were already ready.
Because most of the female members of the family lived in the palace, the responsible Concubine Rou thoughtfully prepared clothes for the female members of the family who were going to perform.
For a moment, all kinds of bright colors added a bit of spring to the cold winter. Just looking at the beauties of all colors made people feel in a very good mood.
Lou Yulan was in the second group. After changing her clothes, she waited for a long time, but Shen Jingyu did not show up, so she sent someone to investigate.
When Lou Yulan learned that Shen Jingyu had broken her ankle, she felt secretly resentful.
She knew that Shen Jingyu would not be fooled so easily.
Lou Yulan searched the crowd, trying to find Shen Jingyu, but before she saw Shen Jingyu, she saw Song Tingshan first.
Song Tingshan was wearing a cloak and looked pale, looking much more haggard than before.
Lou Yulan wanted to say something to him, but before she could go forward, she saw him walking straight towards Shen Jingyu.
That’s right, Xiao Tingshan is in a difficult situation now.
Now he was disliked by His Majesty, and Xiao Heyu was quite cold towards him. Meng Kuo was no longer capable of taking on important tasks, and his health was getting worse day by day.
But he was unwilling to let his life be like this. Why?
Why again!
He thought about it for a long time and finally decided to go with Shen Jingyu.
Shen Jingyu must be holding an important bargaining chip in her hand, otherwise how could Xiao Yuncheng and Concubine Jing have dragged on until now.
Even if it was for the sake of showing benevolence and righteousness, Shen Jingyu should have been dealt with secretly.
If he could get the bargaining chips in Shen Jingyu's hand, it was still unclear whether he could overthrow Xiao Yuncheng's faction, but at least he would be valued by Xiao Heyu.
To take a step back, even if Xiao Heyu doesn't value him, it's better to have the bargaining chip in his own hands than to have nothing.
Xiao Tingshan was calculating very loudly, but he didn't know that this scene was seen by Lou Yulan who was not far away.
Seeing her lover having a great time talking with Shen Jingyu, Lou Yulan couldn't help but have tears in her eyes.
Shen Jingyu, this bitch...
He keeps saying that he doesn't like Prince Song, but he is always like this.
Lou Yulan forced herself to look away and bit her lips tightly.
Shen Jingyu's behavior really made her sick. It would be better for her to admit it frankly. At least she wouldn't hate her so much.
"What do you think? Did I lie to you? My eldest sister is like this, good at dancing with long sleeves. Whether she likes it or not, she just likes to see men around her." Shen Jingzhen appeared beside Lou Yulan and spoke with a smile.
It must be said that seeing Lou Yulan's hateful expression, she finally experienced the pleasure of watching others climbing up from behind.
Lou Yulan lowered her eyes and let out a breath, as if she had made up her mind.
Shen Jingzhen said regretfully: "It's a pity that she doesn't plan to go on stage. It seems that you and I can't beat her after all."
Lou Yulan turned to look at Shen Jingzhen, her eyes calm, "Do you want her to lose face and become a laughing stock, so that she will never be able to compete for the position of the prince's consort in the future? No, you want her to never be able to marry any powerful person in the future."
Shen Jingzhen stared at her and paused: "What do you want me to do?"
Lou Yulan said slowly: "It's not difficult. Just wait until I come on stage, and then you find the right time to push her into the middle of the field."
"What?" Shen Jingzhen frowned, feeling that Lou Yulan was trying to trick her again.
Lou Yulan said slowly: "When I was on the field, when I approached her, you found a way to push her into the field and collide with me."
Shen Jingzhen said nothing. She was somewhat moved, but she also knew that Lou Yulan had no good intentions.
Lou Yulan said again: "This matter is risky for both you and me. Now that Shen Jingyu is not on the stage, you can't let me reveal her true identity by myself."
Shen Jingzhen gritted her teeth, her eyes full of hatred: "Okay."
Just this time, for the last time.
This time, she wanted Shen Jingyu to be infamous and completely defeated, and she wanted her to never have any chance standing in her way again.
Soon, people came on stage one after another.
In order to avoid delaying too long and also to make it more lively, each group of ten people will go on stage, and one group from every two groups will enter the second round, until the top few are selected from the five people.
Lou Yulan was assigned to the second group in the first match. She waited patiently for a while, breathed a sigh of relief, and had a gloomy look in her eyes.
She had stayed in Shen Jingyu's shadow for too long, and she had had enough.
It was not until Shen Jingyu fell from the altar that she realized that anyone could actually reach that position, and she could also become the Qin family's expectation and the one that everyone pays attention to.
If only she could take his place.
By then, perhaps Prince Song will be able to see her.
