Shen Moyu took a step back without leaving a trace. Shen Lian'er pounced too hard and almost fell flat on her face.

"Big sister, why are you so cold to Lian'er?" Shen Lian'er pouted and choked up, "Could it be that you are angry because I took the carriage of Wuyang Marquis's Mansion today and didn't go with you?"

"What do you mean, Third Miss? Before we left, my Miss clearly asked if you wanted to go with us. You said that you are the granddaughter of Marquis Wuyang and your status is no longer the same as before, so you didn't want to go with us. Why are you blaming my Miss now?"

Li Yue is not a pushover when she is provoked. Shen Lian'er has repeatedly pretended to be a good boy and eat in front of outsiders. Fortunately, her young lady has not bought it in recent times.

"Li Yue, you lowly slave, believe it or not, I will arrange for someone to sell you out after the Hundred Flowers Banquet!"

Shen Lian'er cursed in a low voice, since when did even the maidservants around Shen Moyu dare to disobey her?

"Li Yue is my maid. What right do you have to decide whether she should stay or go? Third sister, have you forgotten how you were released from house arrest?"

"Big sister, that's not what I meant. I just think that Li Yue is trying to sow discord between us sisters and has bad intentions."

While Shen Lian'er acted pitiful, she did not forget to glance around at the people who were watching the show.

As the saying goes, every failure makes you wiser, but Shen Lian'er had no such awareness at all. She still thought that her older sister was the Shen Moyu of the past, and she could do whatever she wanted.

"Third sister, you'd better not spend too much time on me today. Don't forget the purpose of your coming here."

Shen Moyu was too lazy to argue with her and was ready to turn around and leave. At this time, the ceremonial officer who presided over the Hundred Flowers Banquet was already standing on the stage, announcing that this year's Hundred Flowers Banquet was about to begin.

"This year's Hundred Flowers Banquet has officially begun. You can first enjoy the exotic flowers and plants. After one stick of incense, we will have a competition in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and archery."

It was definitely impossible for Shen Moyu to stay where she was for an incense stick of time. She was a little curious about the Purple Gold Palace and wanted to walk around. She had only come here once in her previous life and fell in love with the Seventh Prince Xiao Ting, and later she kept following him around.

"Big sister, where are you going?"

"Miss Shen, don't you have friends of your own? Why do you have to revolve around your eldest sister?"

Xiao Xuan looked impatient. She felt that this Third Young Lady was like a dog-skin plaster that could not be gotten rid of.

"Princess Four, please forgive me. I just want to be closer to my big sister."

Although she didn't know why Shen Moyu had been so cold recently, her mother said that Shen Moyu was a fool and was just like this because he was angry with her mother.

In her mother's words, it won't cause any big waves.

"you……"

Xiao Xuan was about to speak when she was interrupted by a maid who came running over, "This servant greets the Fourth Princess."

"What are you in such a hurry for?"

"The fourth princess..."

The maid approached Xiao Xuan and whispered a few words. Xiao Xuan raised her eyebrows slightly, glanced at Shen Moyou inconspicuously, and then pretended to be calm and said, "Moyou, I have something to deal with. I will come to you after the competition starts."

"You do your thing, I'll just walk around."

Although Xiao Xuan was very friendly to her, she didn't dare to open up to him right away. The lesson she learned in her previous life was bloody, and she was really scared.

"Lian'er, you are here, it's easier for us to find you."

Shen Lian'er was about to reach out to grab Shen Moyu's wrist, but she saw two girls walking towards her and subconsciously pulled her hand back.

"Mengling, Yunqian, you are here too."

The girl who was replaced by Meng Ling was the daughter of Wei Lin, the Minister of Revenue, and Yun Qian was the daughter of Yun Qisheng, the Vice Minister of Justice. They were Shen Lian'er's followers and pawns.

These two people contributed greatly to her being known as a fool in her previous life and being looked down upon and ridiculed by other noble ladies.

"Lian'er, your eyes are red, have you been crying?"

"It's okay, Mengling. Big sister didn't mean to make things difficult for me. My mother was framed by a villain. It was my mother's fault. It's only right for big sister to vent her anger."

This is what double-dealing is all about. Shen Moyu, his master and servant, looked at each other in tacit understanding, all of them speechless.

Shen Lian'er's pretending to be pitiful was very useful to these two people. As expected, as soon as she finished speaking, Wei Mengling started to attack first.

"Miss Shen has a bad temper. We have also heard about what happened to the Shen family this time. It was caused by a villain. As her elder sister, you should not only not protect her but also feel sorry for her. You actually dared to bully her!"

"It's really abominable that you don't care about sisterhood like this."

As Yun Qian spoke, she wanted to push Shen Moyu, but was stopped by Meng Dong. Unexpectedly, Yun Qian became angry and walked forward with her hand raised to slap Shen Moyu in the face.

"I will definitely teach you a lesson today."

A "pop" sound quieted down the originally noisy banquet, and everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Moyu's farce.

Yun Qian covered her face, her squinting eyes widened in disbelief, looking ridiculous. She yelled out of control, "Shen Moyu, you bitch, you actually hit me!"

Shen Lian'er and Wei Mengling didn't react for a moment. They were stunned, as if they couldn't believe that Shen Moyu, who was always submissive, would hit someone.

"Ah……"

Shen Moyou snorted disdainfully, "I'll hit you if I want. Do I have to choose a day? You are just the daughter of a minister, and you are so outspoken. If you do it again, it won't be as simple as a slap in the face."

"Ahhhhh!!! Bitch, I'm going to kill you!"

Yun Qian was so irritated by her contemptuous words that she lost her mind and rushed towards her screaming.

Meng Dong would never let her have her wish. He calmly threw a small stone at her feet. Yun Qian slipped and fell flat on her face.

"Shen Moyou, just wait, I won't let you go."

After making a fool of herself in front of so many people, Yun Qian became completely frenzied, and her eyes were full of resentment as she looked at Shen Moyu.

"Really? Then I'll wait."

Shen Moyu didn't care much, because even if Yun Qian didn't provoke her, she would not let go of the people around Shen Lian'er.

Since you are so impatient, let’s start with you, the daughter of the Vice Minister of Justice, what a joke!

At the same time, in the attic on the second floor of Zijin Palace, several eyes fell on Shen Moyu at the same time.

"Little uncle, I think the eldest lady of the Shen family is really different."

The person who spoke was Xiao Xuan, who had just rescued Shen Moyu at the gate of Zijin Palace. At this moment, she was standing behind Xiao Linchuan, looking well-behaved and respectful.

"Xiao Xuan, don't forget your identity. Don't meddle in matters that you shouldn't meddle in."

Xiao Linchuan's tone contained a hint of warning, which made Xiao Xuan's body tremble slightly, with obvious fear in her eyes.

She immediately bowed her head and admitted her mistake, "It is my fault for not thinking it through. Please punish me, little uncle."

"It won't happen again."

"But little uncle, everyone says that Miss Shen is infatuated with Xiao Ting, but when I talked to her just now, I didn't see that she had any feelings for Xiao Ting at all, even..."

Xiao Xuan paused for a moment before continuing, "I even think Miss Shen hates Xiao Ting. When she mentions him, she doesn't even have any feelings, let alone affection."
