The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

To Gu Chenan, Shen Yunjiao was no longer of any use to him. In fact, judging from the fact that she was always causing trouble, she was a chess piece that could be discarded at any time.

On the contrary, he must hold on to Shen Qingyan as a chess piece. After all, she now has a tendency to stand in Gu Beihuai's camp.

Shen Yunjiao's face was extremely ugly, but she still spoke pitifully.

"Brother Chen An, do you think Yun Jiao is useless, so you don't like Yun Jiao anymore?"

"Is it because of my father's matter that Brother Chen An is in trouble?"

Shen Yunjiao deliberately mentioned Shen Pinghe just to make Gu Chenan realize that if Gu Chenan wants to achieve his goal, he cannot do without the support of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Gu Chenan frowned, and a dangerous aura gradually spread around him.

He knew that Shen Pinghe had been detained in the palace for questioning after attending court yesterday, and he was worried that Shen Pinghe would betray him, but Shen Yunjiao just kept bringing up the issue.

"Shen Yunjiao, did I give you too much face before, which made you so bold and reckless, not knowing how high the sky is and how deep the earth is?"

Shen Yunjiao widened her eyes in disbelief. How could her brother Chen An say such words to her?

She wrung the handkerchief in her hand vigorously, trying her best to save face.

"Brother Chen An, you misunderstood. Yun Jiao just wanted to help you..."

Gu Chen'an showed a sinister look on his face and interrupted her impatiently, "We are in the palace now, you'd better be careful with your words and actions. If you continue to be so fearless, I will no longer care about our past friendship."

After saying that, he turned and left, not even bothering to look at Shen Yunjiao.

Shen Yunjiao looked at Gu Chenan's resolute and indifferent back. Her breathing became rapid and she was a little unsteady on her feet.

What does Brother Chen An mean? Is he going to abandon her completely?

I thought his previous indifference was just for Shen Qingyan to see, but now it seems that he really doesn't want to pay attention to her anymore.

Why? what is this?

Thinking of the look Gu Chenan gave Shen Qingyan, Shen Yunjiao instantly understood.

That bitch Shen Qingyan must have said something to Brother Chen An, which caused Brother Chen An's attitude towards her to change drastically.

Thinking of this, hatred burst out in Shen Yunjiao's eyes, and she had some vague ideas in her mind.

----

The emperor's birthday banquet was held in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Decorations engraved with the words "happiness" and "longevity" were hung throughout the palace, as well as various golden bamboo, precious jade and other ornaments, displaying the grace, peace, and unique dignity and luxury of the royal family.

After entering the hall, men and women sat separately, on the east and west sides, separated by a gauze curtain in the middle. When the wind blew, the gauze curtain fluttered in the wind, and the golden butterfly patterns on it added a bit of mystery and hazy beauty.

At this point, Shen Qingyan and Gu Beihuai separated.

Before Gu Beihuai left, Shen Qingyan suddenly pulled his sleeve, forcing him to lower his head and look at her in confusion.

Shen Qingyan smiled brightly and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "My Lord, remember to think of me."

After saying that, she quickly turned around and left, her long skirt fluttering in the wind, light and agile.

Gu Beihuai's heart was stirred up with ripples, which spread out quietly in circles.

He curled the corners of his lips vaguely, turned around and sat down.

Not long after Shen Qingyan sat down, Shen Yunjiao came hurriedly and sat two seats away from her.

Because of the disparity in their status, Shen Yunjiao was not qualified to sit with Shen Qingyan, who was a princess.

But her eyes always fell on Shen Qingyan inadvertently.

Seeing this, Shen Qingyan exchanged glances with Qingmei.

Qingmei understood and immediately took out a brocade box containing the jade ring and handed it to her.

"Princess, this is a gift for the Emperor...ah!"

Qingmei was careless and the brocade box suddenly slipped from her hands and fell to the ground.

The lid was slightly opened, revealing a jade ring of excellent quality.

Qingmei quickly picked it up and knelt down to apologize.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I didn't mean to do that..."

Shen Qingyan was furious and shouted angrily, "What's going on? You can't even handle such a small matter. Why don't you go down and clean it up!

"Yes."

Qingmei stood up in fear and trepidation, then went downstairs holding the brocade box, hurriedly brushing away the dust on it with her sleeve as she walked.

As it was still early, there were not many people sitting at the table, and Shen Yunjiao happened to see this scene.

She rolled her eyes and winked at Xia Zhu beside her.

Xia Zhu had helped her a lot, so she understood at a glance and followed Qingmei quietly.

Shen Qingyan saw it and calmly took a sip of tea to hide the sarcastic smile on her lips.

Shen Yunjiao, you are still as stupid as ever, but things have changed, and this time it won’t be you who will harm me.

In order to avoid being discovered, Shen Yunjiao moved closer and spoke cautiously.

"Sister, please don't be angry, okay? As long as you can forgive me, I can do anything..."

Looking at her humble and pitiful appearance, those who didn't know would think that Shen Qingyan was exploiting her severely.

Several young ladies passing by looked at the scene curiously and whispered to each other while standing not far away.

Shen Qingyan glanced at Shen Yunjiao indifferently. You're trying to do this again, right? What a pity. Now, fame is nothing to her.

"Oh? Is what my sister said true? I can do anything?"

Shen Yunjiao looked at the increasing number of strange looks around her and became more humble and helpless. She bit her lip and said with tears in her eyes.

"As long as the elder sister can calm down, the younger sister can do anything."

"Okay." Shen Qingyan smiled slightly and waved her hand nonchalantly, "Then go to hell and stop being an eyesore here."

Shen Yunjiao opened her mouth, but the rest of the words were stuck in her throat.

She secretly gritted her teeth and squeezed out a few tears. She was so heartbroken, "If my death can make my sister calm down, then I'd rather die..."

Before she finished her words, Feng Yue'er, who had always been on good terms with Shen Yunjiao, walked over quickly and reached out to hold her.

"Yun Jiao, what are you doing?" Feng Yue'er said while looking at Shen Qingyan angrily.

The last time she was slapped in the face by her was still fresh in her mind. She was extremely resentful and naturally stood on the same side as Shen Yunjiao.

"My Lady Princess, this is the Emperor's birthday banquet, are you trying to force Yun Jiao to death?"

Shen Qingyan drank a sip of tea with an indifferent expression and laughed mockingly when she heard the words.

"Do you think she has the guts to die?"

This sentence directly touched Shen Yunjiao's lungs. She really didn't dare to die.

Shen Yunjiao gritted her teeth, winked at Feng Yue'er, and then suddenly rushed towards the pillar beside her.

Feng Yue'er understood what she meant and immediately pulled her back, trying to comfort her loudly.

"Yun Jiao, even if the princess wants to kill you, you can't be so reckless!"

The commotion here quickly attracted the attention of many people, and they all looked over.

"What is Shen Qingyan going to do now?"

"I heard that they wanted Shen Yunjiao to die..."

"Tsk, being a princess is different. Whoever she wants to kill must die..."

"Shh, keep your voice down, or you'll die."

Shen Qingyan was not at all panicked. With just one sentence, she made Shen Yunjiao stop in her tracks.

"If you seek death here and offend the emperor, it will be a heinous crime that will implicate your entire clan."

Shen Yunjiao staggered and almost fell flat on her face.

She caught a glimpse of two women in gorgeous clothes approaching from the corner of her eye, and immediately knelt down and raised her voice.

"My Lady Princess, then I will die in whatever way you want me to..."

Just then, a domineering voice came from the door.

"What are you making so much noise about?!"
