Shen Sui'an looked at Shen Jianglin, who had white hair growing on his temples and looked much older than he was more than a year ago, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

I thought I would never see this father again in this life.

She looked at Shen Siyi again, and saw that she had red hairpins on her head and was wearing bright and eye-catching clothes. Her eyes were looking at her restlessly, and Shen Sui'an guessed what she was thinking.

Shen Sui'an retracted his gaze, sat down in the main seat, and said calmly, "Sir Shen, you are so forgetful. Didn't you sever your father-daughter relationship with this princess?"

"The bloodline between father and daughter is natural. How can it be severed just like that?" Shen Jianglin felt guilty and thought that he had never said such cruel words.

"Bloodline cannot be cut off, but feelings cannot be restored once they are cut off." Shen Sui'an didn't even look at him.

"Master Shen, are you here to take Grandpa and Grandma back? No need. Grandpa and his family like the capital city very much and want to live here for a few more years."

Shen Siyi looked at Shen Suian's face, which was even more beautiful and dazzling than before, and felt extremely jealous.

When she heard that she didn't intend to recognize Shen Jianglin, she suddenly became anxious.

"We are not here to pick up our grandparents. Sister, you are now a princess, you can't enjoy all the glory and wealth by yourself. Daddy raised you, now is the time for you to repay him."

"My grandparents raised me." Shen Suian said coldly.

Shen Jianglin was furious. "You are my son, your last name is Shen, how are you going to sever your relationship with me?"

"You want to ignore me? Ha, aren't you afraid that people in the world will call you unfilial? You are now a princess, and Lu Yuan still has a good reputation in the Southern Dynasty. If others know that he married an unkind and unjust princess, how will they look at him?"

Shen Jianglin sneered repeatedly. He was desperate. He had nothing now anyway. But Shen Suian was different. She had a noble status and valued her reputation the most. If she didn't treat him well, he would go out and make trouble to let everyone know her true face.

Shen Sui'an lowered her eyes slightly. She could indeed kick Shen Jianglin out right now, but this was the Southern Dynasty, and she really had to consider Fu Jinyuan's reputation.

"Sister, please quickly arrange a yard for us so that my father and I can have a good rest." Shen Siyi said proudly.

Shen Sui'an raised his eyes and looked at her coldly, "Who do you think you are? Are you worthy of living in the palace?"

"you……"

"She is your sister. Now that you are rich and powerful, isn't it your duty to support her?"

Shen Sui'an smiled and said, "Sir Shen, this is the palace."

"Do you want to live in the palace?"

"Of course." Shen Siyi said as a matter of course.

"Sir Shen, you are well-read and have served in the court for many years. Please tell me, where in the world would a father-in-law live with his family in his son-in-law's house?"

Shen Sui'an sneered, "Aren't you afraid that if you stay here today, you will be driven out of the capital city by the palace tomorrow?"

"..." Shen Jianglin's expression changed.

"What about grandparents and madam? Don't they also live in the palace?" Shen Siyi shouted.

"They were invited into the palace by me personally." Fu Jinyuan's low voice came from outside.

Shen Siyi's face lit up with joy and she turned her head quickly.

"Your Highness, why are you back at this time?" Shen Sui'an stood up to greet him.

On a warm spring day, a man in a black four-clawed python robe stood under the corridor. He had a handsome and upright figure, sharp and dim eyes, and a natural sense of intimidation from a superior position.

Shen Siyi's heart was pounding.

In the past, she thought Lu Yuan was a man of heavenly appearance, tall, straight and full of charm. Now that he is a prince, he holds a high position of power and has an even more noble temperament.

She only hated why she was not the one who married Lu Yuan, otherwise she would be a princess now.

"Greetings, Your Highness." Shen Siyi took a few steps forward and bowed tenderly towards Fu Jinyuan.

Fu Jinyuan didn't even look at her. He walked to Shen Sui'an's side, lowered his eyes to look at her charming face, and the sharp and cold look in his eyes faded a little.

"You just came out of confinement today, don't be too tired."

"My dear son-in-law!" Shen Jianglin said anxiously, "We haven't congratulated you on becoming the prince yet. We heard about this and came here day and night to congratulate you, the prince."

Fu Jinyuan said calmly, "Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law."

"Someone is coming."

Shen Jianglin was delighted. You see, even if he was a prince, he should treat his father-in-law well.

Shen Siyi was also full of expectations. As long as she was allowed to stay, she could see Lu Yuan every day. Was she still afraid that she would not have the chance?

The chief secretary came over and bowed respectfully.

"Father-in-law has been traveling a long way, so it's not convenient for me to entertain him today. Please settle him down first."

"Go find a house for Lord Shen to stay first." Fu Jinyuan ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

When Shen Jianglin heard this, the joy on his face froze.

"My dear son-in-law, where do you want us to go? The palace is so big, isn't there a place for us to stay?"

Fu Jinyuan looked over with sharp eyes, "Father-in-law, this is the palace, not the Shen family."

Shen Jianglin's face turned red instantly.

"Besides, how can outsiders live in the backyard of the palace?"

Shen Siyi said sharply, "Why can grandparents live here?"

"Who do you think you are? How dare you compare yourself to our grandparents?" Fu Jinyuan asked coldly.

"Your Highness, I am Shen Suian's father after all. You treat me like this..." Shen Jianglin was about to bring out another set of excuses that were unkind, unjust and unfilial.

Fu Jinyuan's eyes were filled with impatience, "So I'll arrange a place for you to live, what else is your father-in-law dissatisfied with?"

"If it's unfilial of you not to let you live in the palace, then your father-in-law can go outside and make trouble."

"I want to see the old master. Also, since I can't live in the palace, what about Jiang? Prince, she is your mother-in-law. Is it appropriate for her to live in the backyard of the palace?" Shen Jianglin shouted.

Fu Jinyuan said calmly, "The princess just gave birth to a baby boy, and my mother-in-law has devoted all her energy to taking care of her. I wonder what my father-in-law thinks?"

Shen Siyi's jealous eyes were like poison, "You...you can give birth to a son?"

"Show him away." Fu Jinyuan's expression turned cold.

"Your Highness, Princess, and Old Master... The Old Master learned that Lord Shen has arrived in the royal capital and wants to meet Lord Shen." Ban Jian replied in a low voice outside the door.

Shen Jianglin breathed a sigh of relief. After all, he was his father's biological son, and his father would not watch him being kicked out.

Shen Sui'an closed his eyes and said, "Take them to see grandfather."

"Master, please come this way." Banjian led the way.

Shen Siyi was reluctant to leave. She looked back every few steps, her eyes fixed on Fu Jinyuan.

"If you look at me again, I'll dig your eyes out!" Shen Suian shouted angrily.

"..." Shen Siyi's face turned pale and she turned around quickly.

Fu Jinyuan looked at Shen Sui'an with a flash of surprise in his eyes, and then a smile appeared on his face.

He held her in his arms, feeling her warmth and tenderness. During these days of confinement, she had been well taken care of, and her skin was even more delicate and white than before. His Adam's apple rolled unconsciously, "Sui Sui is so cute when she's jealous."

"It will be troublesome if we keep them in the royal capital." Shen Suian didn't notice his darkening eyes, and he was only thinking about how to drive Shen Jianglin and the others away.
