Shen Qingyin put down the account book in his hand and waited for Fan'er to continue.

"The eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion heard in the teahouse that Prince Kang doted on his concubine, so she couldn't sit still and went straight to Prince Kang's Mansion. However, she didn't go in through the main gate. Instead, she sent someone to pass a message through the side door, and the two met secretly in the alley outside the side door. "

"Although I couldn't hear what the two people said, it was obvious that there was something fishy going on. By the way, the two had just met when they were caught by the eldest lady. The prince seemed to have scolded the eldest lady. "

Shen Qingyin listened to Fan'er's words calmly on the surface, but his heart was unsettled.

Who could have thought that Chu Xinglan, the daughter of the prime minister, had already been secretly hooking up with Qin Yueze, the prince of Prince Kang?

In fact, both of them are of noble status, so they can get married openly.

However, Qin Yueze knew very well that His Majesty was afraid of the powerful ministers and the royal family trying to get close to each other, so he did not dare to make their relationship public easily, so he could only interact with them in secret.

It was not until Qin Yueze ascended the throne that Chu Xinglan entered the palace and became his most beloved concubine...

It seems that Chu Xinglan endures everything for Qin Yueze, but in fact, she is not a simple-minded person who only acts for love.

Not only was she cruel and domineering, she was also very jealous. In her previous life, she lost her children twice, both times thanks to Chu Xinglan... It was also Chu Xinglan who eventually replaced her as queen...

Moreover, since Chu Xinglan entered the palace and was favored, the power of the Prime Minister's family has also expanded rapidly. When she replaced Shen Qingyin as the queen, the power of the Prime Minister's Mansion was so powerful that it was no exaggeration to describe it as covering the sky with one hand...

As the memories faded away, Shen Qingyin let out a sigh of relief.

Although Chu Xinglan has nothing to do with her in this life, with the memories of her past life, it is impossible for her not to hate him.

Shen Rongyue has nothing to do, so she accompanies Qin Yueze to harass herself. It would be better to let Shen Rongyue take the lead for herself...

"When two people are fighting, there has to be someone to cheer them on. Just as we said before, continue--" Shen Qingyin ordered.

"Yes, I understand." Fen'er agreed and said, "Madam, the food for the old lady has been prepared."

"Okay, let's set off immediately." Shen Qingyin stood up.

Today is the third day that the old lady has started speaking.

According to what the old lady said two days ago, Shen Qingyin's biological mother was a prostitute, and she herself didn't know who her biological father was.

When Shen Zhinian was young, he occasionally went to a brothel to drink and get to know her mother, and knew that she was a poor person.

Later, her biological mother became seriously ill and decided that Shen Zhinian could be trusted and that the Shen family had a clean background, so she begged hard to entrust Shen Qingyin to the Shen family.

Shen Zhinian couldn't bear to refuse, so he reluctantly brought Shen Qingyin back to the Shen family.

In order to cover up her shameful identity, they registered her under the name of Du and claimed that she was Du's biological daughter...

"Madam, I think the old lady is talking nonsense. Don't believe her..." In the carriage, Fan'er looked at Shen Qingyin with concern over his serious expression.

Shen Qingyin nodded slightly.

She didn't believe it either.

Inside the Jingzhao Prefecture Prison.

It's almost time for lunch again.

Many people in the prison were already leaning against the bars, looking forward to what was happening.

Even that thief woman is the same.

Only the old lady sat calmly aside, looking at these people indifferently, with a bit of contempt in her eyes.

It's ridiculous that these people are waiting so long for a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun.

And she no longer has to eat this disgusting food!

Judging from the time, her meal should be here soon.

It was agreed yesterday that she would eat the steamed meat and fried cakes from Zuixianlou today. Although she had never eaten them before, she had heard people say that they tasted great, so she wanted to try it.

After eating steamed meat and fried pastry today, she wants to eat Li Ji's braised lion's head tomorrow, and she wants some candied fruits from Tian Xin Zhai the day after tomorrow...

"It's time for food, it's time for food!" The jailer came over with a food bucket and steamed buns, and started serving food to each cell one by one.

When it was the old lady's turn, the jailer first distributed rice and steamed buns to the thief woman, and saw that the old lady was still sitting there motionless.

He shouted, "Hey, prisoner, put your bowl over here!"

The old lady turned her head and curled her lips: "No need."

She could get all kinds of delicious food just by opening her mouth and saying a few words. She didn't want to eat these things that were not for human consumption!

She has no freedom and cannot go out, but it is also good to be in prison like this.

"Okay, it was you who said you didn't want to eat, so don't say I never gave you any food!" The jailer left with the rice bucket.

The thief woman turned and glared at the old lady.

Since the old lady refused to eat, she had nothing to snatch.

So she had to eat one less steamed bun!

Just as the thief woman's eyes were sharp and she was about to come over and attack, another jailer arrived in time:

"Mrs. Shen, someone wants to see you, come out!"

The cell door was opened and the old lady breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at the thief woman with pride, then left with the jailer.

As soon as she entered the house, she smelled the smell of steamed meat and pastry. The old lady sniffed and said, "Smells good! It smells really good!"

He turned to look at Shen Qingyin and urged, "What do you want to ask today? Hurry up!"

Shen Qingyin smiled and pointed to the chair opposite: "There's no rush today, sit down first."

The old lady was somewhat reluctant, but she was anxious to finish her answer so that she could eat it while it was hot.

But since Shen Qingyin said so, she had no choice but to sit down.

"I wonder if grandma is satisfied with the meals these past two days?" Shen Qingyin asked.

The old lady pursed her lips: "It's OK."

"Are you satisfied or dissatisfied?" Shen Qingyin asked.

"Satisfied, right?" The old lady didn't want to admit it, but she had to.

The meals for the two consecutive days were all from Zuixianlou, the most famous restaurant in the capital. They were the most delicious food she had ever eaten in her life, and each meal cost several taels of silver.

The things that he couldn't even eat in the Shen family before, he can now eat in prison. How can he not be satisfied?

If you say you are not satisfied, it will be troublesome if you can't eat it next time...

"You are satisfied with the food, but I am not satisfied with what I heard. Our deal is unfair!" Shen Qingyin's face suddenly darkened.

"How is it unfair?" The old lady was anxious, "I did everything you said! Whatever you asked, I told you everything!"

Shen Qingyin stood up and slowly walked to the old lady: "You said it, but it's all nonsense?"

The old lady turned pale: "I, I am telling the truth..."

"The truth? Who can prove it?" Shen Qingyin stared at the old lady.

The old lady was panicked: "This, this is not known to everyone, how can anyone prove it...why don't you go ask your father..."

The son would definitely not tell it, otherwise Shen Qingyin would not have negotiated with him.

Shen Qingyin nodded slightly: "That's right, Shen Zhinian should know better than you. Fan'er, take the lunch box, let's go to the Ministry of Justice Prison——"

"Yes!"
