Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Chapter 281 I Brought a Gift for My Sister

Chu Yanluo finally sent Shen Mingxuan back to the Shen family. When she returned to Prince Ning's Mansion, the sky was already slightly bright.

The Shen family was in chaos because Shen Mingxuan came back covered in injuries. Some people were crying, some were cursing, some were busy calling doctors, and some were busy asking who had done it.

Shen Mingxuan cried and recounted what happened. Finally, she gritted her teeth and said, "Mother, Shen Wantang is too cruel! She almost killed me!"

Qi immediately knelt down in front of Shen Guannian and said, "My husband, do you still want to protect that bitch Shen Wantang this time? Look at what she has done to Xuan'er. If my husband doesn't discipline her, she will harm you next!"

Shen Guannian said unhappily, "Do you think I don't want to discipline her? She is now the Crown Prince's Consort of Prince Ning's Mansion, and she is accompanied by guards when she goes in and out. Who can touch her?"

Qi didn't care about all this. She cried and begged Shen Guannian to call Shen Wantang back and beat him up. Shen Guannian was so annoyed by her that he finally sent someone to call him back.

After all, she harmed her own sister like this, and this was indeed a perfect excuse to deal with her. Maybe he could also use this incident to control Shen Wantang and ask her to help him get his job back.

However, the person who went to deliver the letter ran back and forth, but Shen Wantang never came.

The doctor had treated all the injuries on Shen Mingxuan's body. She was extremely sleepy, but the wounds were so painful that she couldn't sleep at all.

It was almost noon when she finally fell asleep after taking some painkillers.

Prince Ning's Mansion.

After listening to Du Juan's report, Shen Wantang smiled slightly, "Really? Shen Mingxuan fell asleep?"

"Yes, I am probably just too sleepy."

Shen Wantang stood up: "Let's go!"

Du Juan was stunned: "Where are you going?"

"Of course I'm going to see my elder sister and help her sleep!"

Du Juan lowered her head, secretly shocked. It seemed that the Crown Prince’s Consort was still angry!

She was woken up in the middle of the night last night and didn't sleep well in the second half of the night. Although she looked energetic today, she was obviously still in a bad mood, and even her smile was cold.

She didn't sleep well, but the culprit wanted to sleep? No way.

Soon, Shen Wantang took a carriage to the Shen family.

The Shen family was completely silent because Shen Mingxuan had finally fallen asleep, and no one in the entire house dared to make any noise for fear of waking her up.

After Shen Wantang entered the Shen family, he went straight to Shen Mingxuan's yard and said, "Kick the door."

The guard raised his foot and with a loud bang, the two doors fell to the ground.

The maid in the room screamed in shock, and Shen Mingxuan on the bed was frightened half to death and woke up immediately: "Who?!"

Shen Wantang walked in slowly.

She faced the light with a smile on her face, and said in a clear and pleasant voice: "Sister, I heard that you were injured, so I came to see you specially. I also brought you a gift!"

But when Shen Mingxuan heard this voice, it was like thunder exploding in her ears.

She looked at Shen Wantang in horror: "Who asked you to come? Get out! Get out right now! I don't want to see you!"

"Sister, don't you want to see me? But the Shen family sent people to the palace three or four times this morning to urge me to come back. I thought that sister missed me too much, so I hurried back."

Shen Mingxuan looked at her in shock and made up a lie. The Shen family was not far from Prince Ning's Mansion, and she rushed back after a whole morning?

But Shen Mingxuan didn't have the energy to talk to her about this. She yelled, "I didn't ask you to come back! It was your father who asked you to come back! What are you doing here? If you have the guts, go to your father and kick his door!"

"Don't get excited, sister. You see, when you get excited, the wounds on your body start to bleed. Oh, sister, why are there so many beads of sweat on your face? Is it too hot? Someone, quickly remove the stove and open all the windows! Look how hot sister is, she is sweating."

The stove that was burning brightly was quickly moved out, and the window was opened, allowing the biting cold wind, accompanied by snowflakes, to blow in.

Shen Mingxuan shivered from the cold. Only then did she realize that it had started snowing outside again.

"Peony, Poria!"

Shen Mingxuan shouted angrily to her maid: "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and close the window! Get Shen Wantang out!"

Shaoyao and Fuling were trembling with fear. Just as they were about to move, they were dragged out by two guards.

"Shen Wantang!"

Shen Mingxuan was so angry that her heart ached: "I am your sister! Is this the respect you should have for your sister?! Close all the windows!"

Compared to the furious Shen Mingxuan, Shen Wantang seemed calm and indifferent: "I have always been respectful to my sister, but she seems to have a lot of complaints about me. She even went to the prince in the middle of the night to spread rumors about me. Sister, you are so free!"

Shen Mingxuan also knew that she had made a wrong move. Not only did she fail to bring down Shen Wantang, but she gave Shen Wantang an excuse to torment her.

The wounds on my body began to hurt again, and I broke out in cold sweat, but the freezing wind was blowing in desperately.

She had no choice but to bow her head to Shen Wantang for the first time: "Sister, I just happened to meet the prince and chatted with him for a few words. You know, I am a straightforward person and I don't think too much before I speak. It's just a small matter, don't take it to heart. After all, we are sisters, and blood is thicker than water, don't you think?"

Shen Wantang smiled: "Sister is right, we are sisters, there is no overnight hatred."

For a moment, Shen Mingxuan couldn't tell whether she really let her go or was just pretending to let her go, but no matter what, as long as Shen Wantang stopped bothering her, she would just coax Shen Wantang away first.

"Sister, go check on father first. He loves you the most. Don't keep him waiting for too long."

"Sister seems to have forgotten something."

"Ah? What's the matter?"

"I told you, I brought a gift for my sister, but she didn't even ask me what I brought? Don't you want to see it?"

"That... that's not necessary. You haven't had anything good since you were a child. What can you give me... well, I mean, just keep the things for yourself. I'm tired and I'm going to take a nap. You can go out now!"

"Sleep? Don't be in a hurry to sleep, sister. It's not too late to sleep after you have seen the gift I gave you."

Shen Wantang smiled coldly, then stepped aside.

Five figures appeared in front of Shen Mingxuan.

The woman in the lead had a long face and triangular eyes, and was wearing a rustic and tattered cotton jacket. Behind her followed four children of different ages.

She spoke in a shrill voice: "Oh, daughter-in-law, we finally meet again! This time, your brothers and sisters and I will not leave, and will spend the New Year at the Shen family!"
