The prince longs for me every night after mastering thought-reading

Chapter 29 Fortune Telling



Xiao Jinyan came in and greeted: "Your son greets you, mother."

Chang Liangdi stood up from her chair and bowed to Xiao Jinyan.

After the queen sat down, she began to question: "At the welcoming banquet today, no matter how much you pamper Shen Fengyi, you can't let her ignore the etiquette and rules and make a fool of herself in public."

Xiao Jinyan pursed his lips, "Mother, your son is the prince, and he knows the priorities of things. Shen Fengyi is not making a fool of herself."

If it weren't for her help today, it would not be so easy for him to tame the wolf today. Although he could tame it with force, it would only make everyone dissatisfied.

Chang Liangdi lowered her eyes and listened to His Highness defending Shen Fengyi. If she had accompanied him at that time, would His Highness also praise her?

The queen was startled when she heard this. This was the first time that the prince refuted her for a woman.

"Look at how dignified and elegant Chang Liangdi is at the welcoming banquet. She is the role model that women in the harem should have."

Xiao Jinyan glanced at Chang Liangdi, and a hint of sarcasm appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Chang Liangdi was personally selected by my mother, so she is naturally dignified and virtuous."

The Queen: "Of course, when has my vision ever been bad? Which of the women I picked for you is not a natural beauty? Shen Fengyi looks good, but it's not okay to be so arrogant just because he is favored."

Xiao Jinyan: "Mother, I came here because of Shen Fengyi."

The Queen thought her son had taken her words to heart, and she felt much more comfortable. "How do you plan to deal with this matter?"

Xiao Jinyan: "Shen Fengyi serves you wholeheartedly, and is a virtuous woman. I plan to promote Shen Fengyi to Shen Liangdi."

Chang Liangdi clenched the handkerchief in her hand and looked at Xiao Jinyan in disbelief. Promoted to Liangdi? Wouldn't that make her equal to her?

The Queen almost thought she had misheard, and she asked again uncertainly: "What did you just say? Promote Shen Fengyi to a higher position?"

Xiao Jinyan nodded, "Yes, mother."

The Queen directly rejected the Prince's decision: "No, Fengyi is so arrogant just because she is favored. If she is promoted to Liangdi, she will be able to walk sideways in the East Palace?"

Xiao Jinyan said firmly: "Mother, I have made up my mind."

When the Queen heard this tone, she knew that the Prince had made up his mind, and her face sank, "Yes, the affairs of the East Palace should be decided by you, the Prince, but you have just taken the position of the Prince, and you can't take care of many things. As for Shen Fengyi's promotion, there are so many eyes in the East Palace watching, I think it's not too late to wait until she is pregnant before promoting, and then there will be no gossip."

Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyes. He should have guessed that his mother would use various excuses to block his decision, because she wanted Xiao Jinyu to be the prince, but he intercepted her. How could she not be angry?

At this time, Xiao Jinyu strode in from outside. Seeing Xiao Jinyan here, he stepped forward with a smile, "Your son greets you, mother."

The queen looked at her youngest son rushing in, and saw that he was sweating profusely. She took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, "What's the matter? Look at your forehead full of sweat."

Xiao Jinyu took the handkerchief and wiped it twice casually, "Mother, I came to find my brother."

The queen's eyes paused. She didn't expect her son not to come to see her. She was a little disappointed, "Then there's no need to be so anxious. What if he falls?"

Xiao Jinyu said: "Mother, your son is already sixteen years old, not a three-year-old child."

Xiao Jinyan looked at the scene in front of him expressionlessly. The scene was too warm. It was a treatment he had never enjoyed before. The hand hidden in his sleeve slowly tightened.

He suddenly stood up and bowed: "Mother, your son will take his leave first."

The queen did not keep him, "Then go and get busy."

Xiao Jinyan slowly left Fengyi Palace.

"Mother, I'm leaving now. I'll come to see you another day." Xiao Jinyu said as she chased after him.

"Brother, wait for me."

The queen was about to call her son back when she saw him running faster than a rabbit. She sighed, "If you run so fast, I'll be sad if you fall."

Chang Liangdi originally wanted to use the queen's name to sleep with her as soon as possible, but unfortunately the queen didn't mention it and the prince left.

Not only did the prince favor Shen Fengyi, but he also wanted Shen Fengyi to be on an equal footing with her. Isn't that the same as wanting Shen Fengyi to compete with her for the position of the crown princess?

It's just that the Imperial Observatory said that the prince should not marry the crown princess. If she mentioned it at this time, it might make her aunt unhappy.

Xiao Jinyan stood on the steps outside Fengyi Palace, watching Xiao Jinyu walking towards her. She wished she could take two steps at a time and come to her. Her young face was full of vitality.

"What do you want to talk to me about?"

Xiao Jinyu came over and said, "Brother, when you say copy the Art of War, do you mean the upper or lower volume?"

Xiao Jinyan said, "Since you asked, then copy both volumes."

Xiao Jinyu regretted running over to ask, and he could only nod his head resignedly, "Okay, I'll copy it."

Shen Chuwei met Lu Zhaoyan on the way back to the East Palace, the Lord Lu who made her wish come true.

Lu Zhaoyan also saw Shen Chuwei take the initiative to step forward and bow, "Shen Fengyi."

Shen Chu smiled and nodded, "Where are you going, Lord Lu?"

Lu Zhaoyan said, "I am just going to find your Highness."

Shen Chuwei kindly reminded, "Your Highness has gone to Fengyi Palace, and you will definitely not be able to see him now."

"Thank you Shen Fengyi for reminding me, I will come back later."

Shen Chuwei saw Lu Zhaoyan was about to leave, and hurriedly called him, "Wait a minute, Lord Lu."

Lu Zhaoyan stopped and asked humbly, "Is there anything else you want to tell me, Shen Fengyi?"

Shen Chuwei curiously leaned over, "Lord Lu, I heard that you can tell fortunes, how about you tell it for me?"

"This..." Lu Zhaoyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He replied, "Shen Fengyi, I can tell fortunes, but it's not necessarily accurate. Shen Fengyi, do you want to tell about marriage or future?"

Shen Chuwei thought for a while and said, "Future, there's no need to tell about marriage."

She thought so. If she left the palace at the age of 25, she would be an old maid. Ancient people had feudal ideas, and it was common to have three wives and four concubines.

It would be impossible for her to meet someone she liked.

Besides, after leaving the palace, she would have to share a husband with others and be jealous. She might as well stay in the palace. Xiao Jinyan is handsome and rich after all!

It's good to tell about future. After leaving the palace, she can make money first and then buy a secluded house to live out her old age. How good is that?

Lu Zhaoyan also felt that there was no need to tell about marriage. Shen Fengyi was already his man and it was impossible to change.

"Then how about I show Shen Fengyi's palm?"

"Okay." Shen Chuwei agreed readily. She stretched out her hand and showed it to Lu Zhaoyan with the palm facing up.

Lu Zhaoyan looked at it carefully for a few times, he touched his chin, looked up at Shen Fengyi again, and then lowered his head to look at the lines on his palm.

Shen Chuwei saw Lu Zhaoyan's actions, and suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, "Lord Lu, how is it?"

Lu Zhaoyan hesitated for a while, and said: "From Shen Fengyi's palm, it can be seen that his fate is a bit bumpy..."

Shen Chuwei wanted to praise Lord Lu, Lord Lu is amazing, she was so young that she suddenly had palpitations and her soul traveled here, and she had no relatives. Isn't this a bumpy fate?

"Lord Lu, is there anything else?"
