In the Lanyue Courtyard, the flowers planted by Shen Mi are blooming.

Because of the last incident with the White Tiger, Pingyang Hou specially hired craftsmen to raise Shen Mi's yard by one floor to prevent Bai Ze from coming again.

But Bai Ze would come in through the window at midnight every day, lie down in the room and sleep, and leave at dawn.

The days passed one by one, and in the blink of an eye, it was almost Your Majesty's fiftieth birthday.

Shen Mi took Qinghe, Yunlan, and Shen Li, whose health was gradually improving, to the most prosperous area of ​​Yanjing City to buy some silk satin.

I thought I could dress appropriately for His Majesty's birthday banquet.

Shen Mi liked to wear purple clothes, so the clothes and jewelry she chose were all light purple.

Shen Li likes to wear simple and elegant clothes.

After a few people finished making their selections and were about to pay the bill, they heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from not far away.

Then, the people in the store walked outside curiously.

Shen Li took the things and patted Shen Mi on the shoulder.

"Mi'er, what happened outside? Why are you all running outside?"

Seeing Shen Li's curiosity, Shen Mi pulled Shen Li's wrist. "Sister, let's go take a look."

The noisy streets were crowded with onlookers. Several neatly dressed soldiers were roughly dragging a female prisoner towards the center of the street.

The woman was handcuffed with iron chains, her hair was disheveled, and she looked at the people who were coming and going with horror.

There was a little dirt on his face, but those eyes made Shen Mi's heart slightly startled.

Because this woman's eyes are so similar to Shen Li's.

Shen Mi could roughly guess the identity of this woman: she was the favorite concubine of the King of Qi.

She still remembered that face from her previous life clearly. If it weren't for this woman, how could Shen Li have died so tragically.

Speaking of which, King Qi is also strange. The women he chooses all have the same characteristics. No wonder he set his sights on Shen Li.

If it weren't for this favorite concubine, how could the King of Qi embezzle military funds and kill Ningyuan Marquis's eldest daughter Wen Wan.

In her previous life, my sister's blood was sucked out for medicine, causing the fetus in her belly to die.

Now, watching the soldiers dragging this woman through the streets for public display, Shen Mi suddenly felt that she deserved it.

The onlookers picked up the eggs and vegetable leaves in their hands and threw them at the woman, accompanied by some harsh sounds.

"They really deserve to go to hell for taking away the military pay of the frontier soldiers."

"That's right, he also killed Princess Qi."

"This witch should be torn into pieces by five horses. Smash her to death. Smash her to death!"

Shen Li stood beside Shen Mi, holding her hand, and said gently: "Mi'er, is this the favorite concubine of Prince Qi's Mansion?"

Shen Mi nodded: "Sister, this person deserves it. She killed Wen Wan."

"Speaking of which, Miss Wen is still your close friend."

Shen Li nodded and pulled Shen Mi inside.

"We won't watch it anymore. The bad guys will be punished by God. Tomorrow is His Majesty's fiftieth birthday. I heard that since yesterday, some envoys have come to Yanjing City one after another."

"Let's pick some fabrics and take them back. We can't let the other noble ladies in Yanjing City look down on our Shen family's girls at His Majesty's birthday banquet."

Shen Mi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, sister."

"Sister is getting better and better now, Mi'er is very happy."

The Shen Mi sisters selected some high-quality materials in the store before the master and servants got on the carriage.

As evening approached, the city of Yanjing became even more lively, with hawking sounds, shouting, and women's laughter coming from both sides of the street.

Perhaps because of the arrival of envoys from various countries, the city of Yanjing today is different from previous days.

Shen Mi sat in the carriage, slowly opened the curtain, and looked at the prosperous scene of Yanjing. She couldn't help but sigh that it was a great time.

My sister doesn't have to marry the King of Qi, and my brother doesn't gamble anymore.

If only my mother were still alive.

As he was thinking, the carriage finally passed by Zui Jiangyue's door.

Zuijiangyue was the same as before, with guests coming and going.

Shen Mi reached out and drew aside the curtain, looking at the people coming and going.

Just as she was about to lower the curtain, Shen Li spoke first.

"Mi'er, isn't that Tianshuang, the maid of my third sister? Why is she here in Zuijiangyue?"

Shen Mi looked over and saw Tian Shuang holding something in his hand and walking inside.

Shen Mi naturally knew the purpose of Shen Shu's visit to Jiang Yuezui.

Of course it was a secret meeting with the prince.

In her previous life, when she was the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace, Shen Shu deliberately had someone lead her to the door of Zui Jiangyue's private room.

Let her listen to Prince Murong Jing and Shen Shu making love in there.

Seeing that her plan succeeded, Shen Shu knelt down and begged her to give her a chance and let her enter the Eastern Palace as a concubine.

Shen Mi is a person who cannot stand scum, so how could he allow it?

But Shen Shu refused to repent and told the Queen that she was pregnant with the Prince's child and was willing to enter the Eastern Palace as a concubine.

She will obediently follow the arrangements of the Crown Princess and will not covet the position of the Crown Princess.

At this point, the Queen had no choice but to force Shen Mi to allow Shen Shu to enter the Eastern Palace.

But Shen Mi didn't expect that Shen Shu's entry into the East Palace was just the beginning of her nightmare.

She and the prince followed each other all day long, and he often found various reasons to make things difficult for her.

The prince already hated Shen Mi, and I turned a blind eye to what Shen Shu did.

Even not long after Jiang Xuan left, at the Queen's banquet, the two of them teamed up and used Yu'er to get Shen Mi drunk, and finally falsely accused her of having an affair with a guard.

Shen Mi vaguely remembered that the night of the Queen's birthday was also a hot summer day.

That night, when she woke up in a strange room, there was a fire outside, illuminating the private room she was in.

Yu'er was still crying outside the door. When she woke up from her dream, she found a strange guard sleeping next to her.

The door was kicked open with a bang by the prince's men.

Amidst the torches and black clothes, Crown Prince Murong Jing walked in with a stern expression.

Next to her was Shen Shu, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes.

"Shen Mi, you bitch, how dare you have an affair with a guard."

At that time, she was panicked and screamed in fear when she looked at the man on her bed.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, I did not have an affair with the guards. Someone must have framed me."

But the prince wouldn't listen to any of her explanations. Even Yu'er, who wanted to go forward to hug her, was pulled away by the prince.

"The Crown Princess has committed adultery with someone. She will be moved to the side courtyard of the East Palace from today onwards. She is not allowed to come out without my order."

When the icy and piercing voice reached Shen Mi's ears, her tragedy began.

Later, he watched Yu'er being killed, watched his limbs being forcibly broken, and watched hot oil being poured down his throat.

Shen Mi took a deep breath and looked at Shen Li. "Sister, the third sister should come to Zui Jiang Yue for tea and dinner."

Shen Li frowned slightly, his eyes fell on the few people who entered Jiang Yuezui and smiled, "I hope so."

Shen Shu and Zhang Huaian are engaged, and Shen Li is worried about meeting Shen Shu and Zhang Huaian here.

After Shen Mi returned to the Shen Mansion, she immediately called Yun Lan.

In the room, Shen Mi said to Yun Lan, "Find a way to get a message to Zhang Huaian saying that someone is looking for him to discuss breaking off the engagement."

"Let's meet at Zuijiangyue, on the fourth floor, in the northernmost private room."

"Okay, Miss, I'll do it right away."

After receiving the order, Yun Lan immediately went out from the side door and headed towards the Yongchang Marquis Mansion.

Shen Mi sat in the room, brows furrowed, tapping the table with his fingers.

If Zhang Huaian discovered the affair between Shen Shu and the prince, he would not tell anyone, but would find ways to cancel the engagement.

At this moment, in Zui Jiangyue's room, the prince stood in the middle of the room, looking down at the woman in front of him kneeling on the ground, changing his clothes as if to please him.

"Brother Jing, does the Queen really mean to use Shen Mi? Then can I also enter the East Palace?"

All the clothes are taken off.

The prince picked up Shen Shu from the ground and walked towards the bed.

"I married her only for General Sima's military power."

"I don't even bother to look at a woman who wants to please my mother and enter the East Palace."

When Shen Shu heard this, she leaned half of her body against the prince and said with a smile: "Brother Jing, this is between you and me, and I don't want to share it with others."

The prince smiled and lifted her chin, saying sarcastically, "You are a little greedy."

"You have sex with me every now and then, and you're still not satisfied?"

Shen Shu curled her lips, "Not satisfied."

"Shu'er has secretly found the sisters in Yihonglou recently and learned some skills. I can try them out today."

The prince put her chin down, picked up the bowl of black medicine on the table next to him and handed it to Shen Shu.

"You spend all day studying lewd techniques, do you want to lock me up?"

"Come, drink this bowl of medicine first."

Shen Shu pursed her lips and looked at the bowl of black medicine.

"Brother Prince, can Shu'er not drink tonight?"

"No." The prince said with certainty.

"Don't worry, there are no guards at the door tonight, you can call without worry."
