The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

As Huo Zhanting spoke, his eyes fell on Shen Qinglan who was sitting next to him.

Shen Qinglan was seen sitting upright on a chair, holding the tea bowl in one hand and the tea whisk in the other, stirring the tea gently and evenly, looking elegant and natural.

When Shen Qinglan heard Huo Zhanting mention her, she put down the tea whisk in her hand and glanced at Huo Zhanting sideways with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

Didn't we let her watch the show? Why did we drag her into the show?

Shen Qinglan was a little annoyed, but couldn't get angry, so she could only pick up a piece of almond candy and break it.

There was a "click" sound, which scared Huo Zhanting so much that he blinked his eyes and felt a little guilty.

Just as she was about to explain, Shen Qinglan casually stuffed the broken almond candy into Huo Zhanting's mouth, as if to cover up her anger.

The smooth and white fingers, with a faint fragrance, touched Huo Zhanting's lips, and it seemed like an electric current flowed along Huo Zhanting's lips and spread to his whole body.

The numbing feeling made Huo Zhanting subconsciously open his mouth and put the almond candy in his mouth.

The sweetness on the tip of the tongue immediately spread in the mouth and slowly slid into the body, like some kind of bewitching drug, causing Huo Zhanting's heartbeat to accelerate.

Huo Zhanting looked straight at Shen Qinglan, with a hint of obscurity in his eyes.

Shen Qinglan didn't look at Huo Zhanting's eyes, but just retracted her fingers nonchalantly and took the handkerchief handed to her by Shuwen.

She carefully wiped the sugar liquid off her fingers slowly and methodically, then she turned her eyes to Huo Zhanting and asked:

"War King, can you trust me?"

The almond candy in Huo Zhanting's mouth had completely turned into sweetness at this time, spreading wantonly in his mouth. Hearing Shen Qinglan's words, his eyes softened and he smiled:

"nature."

After hearing this, Shen Qinglan looked at Shen Qingli and said with a smile:

"Sister, you have said so much to frame me, but it is just one-sided. Do you have any evidence?" After a pause, Shen Qinglan glanced at Zhao Chunlan again and said with a smile:

"Madam Jing'an is your biological mother, so she can't be a witness."

After Shen Qingli was choked, she glared at Shen Qinglan in annoyance. Just as she was about to explain, Shen Qinglan smiled again, interrupted her lightly, and continued softly:

"But, I have evidence."

"what?"

Shen Qingli looked at Shen Qinglan with some shock, his eyes full of disbelief!

Shen Qinglan smiled and asked seriously:

"When Prince Zhan's palace came to propose marriage, he should have mentioned the fate with Marquis Jing'an's wife, right?"

When Zhao Chunlan heard this, her heart skipped a beat. She looked up at Shen Qinglan in surprise, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes.

Seeing this, Shen Qinglan smiled faintly. Just as he was about to continue, he heard a voice coming from far away:

"I'm afraid the wife of Marquis Jing'an is really old and has a bad memory. At the beginning, I personally brought a piece of calligraphy and painting to the Marquis Jing'an's mansion and asked to marry the owner of the calligraphy and painting!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw the old princess leading Nanny Gui striding in from outside the door.

When the old princess arrived, Zhao Chunlan's face turned pale. She wanted to explain something, but the old princess had already asked Aunt Gui to open the painting and said:

"At the beginning, my son got this painting by chance and liked it very much. It happened that he was old enough to get married, and the old war king passed away. I was afraid that my son would ruin his life."

"I just happened to learn that the owner of this calligraphy and painting was a girl from the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion, so I came to ask for her hand in marriage. But at that time, the Marquis of Jing'an's wife told me that the owner of this calligraphy and painting was the second daughter of the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion!"

Shu Wen stood behind Shen Qinglan and saw the painting that Nanny Gui unfolded. He couldn't help but sneered and said:

"Nonsense, that's simply our eldest daughter's calligraphy and painting."

Madam Jing'an's eyes flickered, and she quickly said:

"I also clarified it later... Otherwise, how could Lan'er marry into Prince Zhan's mansion?"

"That was because the Second Miss threatened to commit suicide and refused to marry into Prince Zhan's mansion, so Lady Jing'an had no choice but to agree to the Second Miss's marriage. But now she is turning the tables and blaming the Second Miss. How shameless!"

As Shuwen spoke, his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

The old Princess Zhan also sneered and looked at the wife of Marquis Jing'an and said:

"Since you admit that it was Qinglan that our Zhan Palace wanted to marry from the beginning, then it is enough to prove that your second young lady's slander of Qinglan for using tricks to snatch the marriage is completely nonsense!"

"Besides, who was the one who wanted to snatch the marriage in the first place? I am somewhat grateful to the second young lady of the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion."

"If she didn't look down on our Ting'er and was deceived by you and entered the Zhan Palace, then our Zhan Palace would be in turmoil! There would be no peace forever, right?"

When Princess Lao Zhan said this, a hint of relief appeared on her face.

In these two times I met Shen Qingli, she always exuded a sense of pettiness. Most importantly, her character was questionable and her heart was not right!

The old Princess Zhan didn’t even dare to think about it. If it was Shen Qingli who came in, how could the Zhan Palace be so stable today?

Not to mention that Sister Yi has a weak constitution that she was born with and cannot be cured. Even if Huo Zhanting doesn't die, he will be paralyzed in bed forever, and his life will be worse than death!

Therefore, in the eyes of Princess Lao Zhan, Shen Qinglan is the lucky star of their family, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is their family's great benefactor!

When Princess Zhan spoke, Shen Qingli's expression suddenly turned pale. Zhao Chunlan also opened her mouth, looking a little at a loss.

Upon hearing this, Marquis Jing'an felt a little sorry.

I thought I could control Shen Qinglan, but now it seems that Zhao Chunlan and Shen Qingli are more likely to cause trouble than help!

Fortunately, he had not expressed his opinion just now. He immediately looked at Zhao Chunlan and Shen Qingli with a look of deep sorrow and said angrily:

"Okay, okay! I never thought that you two would scheme to humiliate Qinglan like this! Lan'er, I am sorry for you!"

When Marquis Jing'an said this, his eyes turned red and he looked at Shen Qinglan with a heartbroken expression.

Shen Qinglan looked at Marquis Jing'an's behavior and sneered in her heart.

If she didn't know that Marquis Jing'an had always been an egoist, she would have been moved.

Unfortunately, ever since Marquis Jing'an brought back Zhao Chunlan and Shen Qingli, who was not much older than her, not long after her mother passed away, Shen Qinglan already knew that her father could not be trusted.

After all, before his mother passed away, almost everyone in the capital knew how much he loved his mother. Even Shen Qinglan herself thought that Marquis Jing'an was the best father and husband in the world.

pity……

Shen Qinglan kept silent and just glanced at Huo Zhanting indifferently.

Huo Zhanting chuckled at this moment, and said to Li Zhao who had been sitting quietly beside him:

"Sir Li, the palace is busy today, and I have made a fool of myself by showing you this. Tell me, how should I deal with them?"

As soon as Huo Zhanting opened his mouth, Marquis Jing'an and others discovered Li Zhao's existence!

It was because Li Zhao was sitting in the corner and there were servants blocking their way, so they didn't notice him.

The moment Shen Qingli saw Li Zhao, the patriarch of the Li family, she seemed to have lost all her strength and fell to the ground with a look of panic on her face.

She never expected that Li Zhao was here!

Doesn't that prove that everything she said just now, including the words expressing her love for Huo Zhanting, has been heard by Li Zhao?

"Uncle..."
