After a tragic death and rebirth, I became the regent's favorite

Chapter 23 The most ruthless imperial family

"Third sister, when did I ever say that I play the piano well?"

Shen Moyou's pretty face was full of smiles, but her eyes were cold. "Could it be that you are speaking in a sarcastic way, wanting to embarrass me in public?"

Shen Lian'er's face turned pale as her shameful thoughts were exposed. "I didn't do that. Don't slander me, big sister."

"I'm not very good at playing the piano, why did you deliberately say in front of everyone that I play the piano well?"

"I... I just heard from the people in my elder sister's courtyard..."

Before Shen Lian'er could finish her stammering words, she was interrupted by Shen Moyou in a stern voice, "Which girl is gossiping? I will definitely pull out her tongue when I get back. But then again, could it be that Third Sister has planted someone in my courtyard? Otherwise, how could she know so much?"

"Oh my god, a daughter born out of wedlock actually dares to place spies in the legitimate daughter's courtyard. Miss Shen is so bold!"

"I thought, Shen Moyou is a idiot, how could he play the piano well?"

"This concubine's daughter openly framed the legitimate daughter. This is really unheard of."

"Big sister, I didn't, I really didn't."

Shen Lian'er's face turned pale, her nails dug into her flesh, and she looked at Shen Moyu pitifully, hoping that she could help her explain.

"That's just nonsense. You deliberately want me to make a fool of myself in front of so many people. Third sister, do you know that it's a small matter for me to lose face, but it's a big matter for the Shen family to lose face. Why are you so ignorant?"

In the previous life, Shen Lian'er's few words caused her to be laughed at by everyone at the Hundred Flowers Banquet. In this life, I let you experience the situation that is difficult to express and explain.

"I'm sorry, big sister. Don't be angry. Lian'er didn't mean it."

She made up her mind and knelt down in front of Shen Moyu, her face red and tears streaming down her face, looking so pitiful.

"Shen Moyou, don't go too far. Lian'er is your sister after all, and you actually forced her to kneel down!"

Wei Mengling was furious and reached out to pull Shen Lian'er, "Lian'er, get up. You are not wrong."

"Mengling, don't worry about me. As long as big sister can calm down, I'll do anything for you."

She shook off Wei Mengling's hand, raised her head and looked at Shen Moyu with tearful eyes, "Big sister, scold me and hit me if you want."

"Shen Lian'er, I don't have as many concerns as you do. The Hundred Flowers Banquet is about to begin. Don't waste everyone's time."

She didn't even look at Shen Lian'er who was kneeling on the ground, and took the drawn lot and sat down according to the order.

Shen Moyou!

Shen Lian'er looked at her back, her tearful eyes filled with malice. "You've embarrassed me in public, I will never let this go!"

"Mo You, your third sister is too fussy. If she is like this outside, she must be even more unscrupulous in the mansion, right?"

Xiao Xuan couldn't stand what this little concubine did. She had seen so much fighting and deception in the harem since she was a child. Shen Lian'er's tricks were not enough for her.

"It's out of the way."

Shen Moyu smiled and didn't explain too much.

"But……"

Xiao Xuan wanted to say something, but was silenced by the eunuch at the door.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived. The Second Prince, the Fifth Prince, and the Seventh Prince have arrived."

"Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Second Prince, the Fifth Prince, and the Seventh Prince."

Everyone knelt down and saluted. Crown Prince Xiao Qi raised his hand and motioned for everyone to stand up. "No need to be polite. Everyone, stand up."

"what happened?"

Shen Lian'er was about to get up and sit down in her seat, but when she heard the princes arriving, she continued to kneel there without moving.

The person who asked the question happened to be the seventh prince Xiao Ting. He knew Shen Lian'er, especially now that Shen Lian'er had such a close relationship with the Wuyang Marquisate.

Xiao Ting, we finally meet!

Shen Moyu's eyes were filled with overwhelming hatred, his knuckles turning white from his anger and excitement as he held the teacup in his hand, and his whole body was shaking slightly.

He is still the same as in his previous life, so sanctimonious, pretending to be false and kind.

"Moyou, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Xuan also noticed something was wrong with Shen Moyou. From the moment her brothers showed up, something was wrong with Shen Moyou. Could it be that, as the rumors said, she was really infatuated with her seventh brother! ?

Shen Moyou came to his senses after being asked by her, and shook his head as if nothing had happened, "I'm fine, I was just a little distracted just now."

"Mo You, you wouldn't really do that to my seventh brother..."

"You're joking. The Seventh Prince is a rare talent. I'm just a common girl. I don't have any ideas."

"is it?"

It’s not that Xiao Xuan didn’t believe it, but Shen Moyu’s reaction was so strange that she couldn’t believe it at all.

"It's okay if the Fourth Princess doesn't believe it."

Shen Moyu was in no mood to explain anything to Xiao Xuan. When they met for the first time after her rebirth, she found that her ability to endure was not as good as she had imagined.

She originally thought that she could turn a blind eye and remain calm when facing Xiao Ting, but she overestimated herself and underestimated her hatred for Xiao Ting.

In his previous life, he had exhausted all his efforts to help him ascend the throne. In order to persuade Ming Zhen's ministers to support him, he had even been humble and servile. After ten years of hard work, he finally ascended the throne.

Shen Moyu thought that from now on, she and Xiao Ting would have a good life, but she forgot a saying: since ancient times, the imperial family has been the most ruthless.

When he first ascended the throne, everything was fine. In order to gain the military power of the Mo family, Xiao Ting promised the Mo family that there would be no harem in this life and she would be the only queen.

However, within a year, she caught him and Shen Lian'er in bed together, and believed their lies that they just drank a few more glasses at the palace banquet and acted on impulse.

She treated Shen Lian'er as her own sister, so even though her heart ached, she still held back her tears and gritted her teeth to confer the title of consort on Shen Lian'er. However, she didn't expect that everything was just the beginning...

After that, Xiao Ting was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, no longer under control. He began to suppress the Mo family in the court and accepted new people in the harem one after another.

Seeing those new people starting to have children for Xiao Ting, and even Shen Lian'er giving birth to a son for Xiao Ting, but her belly was still motionless, she began to compete with those concubines for their favors, using all means and exhausting all her energy.

In the end, Xiao Ting despised her for being jealous and old and ugly. She was tired and could no longer fight, so she began to stay in the palace and avoid seeing people, and also refused to allow concubines to pay them respects.

Until she was banished to the cold palace by Xiao Ting, she had actually guessed at that time that Xiao Ting had grown strong and no longer needed her, but needed the Mo family. However, she did not expect Xiao Ting to be so cruel and use her to force the Mo family to compromise and give up the right to send troops bit by bit.

He also eroded the Mo family bit by bit, and finally wiped out the entire Mo family on the false charge of treason. He also threw her mother into the military camp for others' entertainment, and eventually her mother was mutilated to death.

Xiao Ting had nothing to do with any of these things. In his previous life, he had invested in the Mo family and in her, and in this life, he had to settle every detail clearly.

"Your Highness, the Seventh Prince, I just accidentally made Big Sister angry, so I kneel here, hoping Big Sister can calm down and forgive me."
