Minister Family's Black Belly Woman

One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

Shen Ninghua clenched her fists tightly and stared fixedly at the man's figure. It was actually Baili Jinze! She had wanted to see him countless times, but she had not expected to meet him so soon. Clenching her teeth tightly, Shen Ninghua forced herself to look away, afraid that she would lose control of the hatred in her eyes.

Shen Ling Han came back to her senses and went forward to support Zhao Ruyun, "Cousin, are you alright? I didn't mean to say that …" As he said this, his face revealed an awkward expression as he raised his head to look at Baili Jinze. When she clearly saw his appearance, her face suddenly flushed red.

He stood tall and straight with narrow eyebrows and long sideburns. His lips were slightly pursed into a warm curve, and his entire body was like a jade in the middle of a pile of rubble. It was hard for people to look away from him.

Baili Jinze took two steps back, and upon seeing Shen Linghan's beautiful face, his pupils slightly shrank, "I was rude just now and scared the two ladies."

Zhao Ruyun raised her head, and her face had an expression of embarrassment. "It's all my fault that I was so angry that my footsteps were in a hurry."

Shen Dong had been entertaining the Fifth Prince and the adopted son of the Xiao family, Chu Junyi, at a banquet in the front courtyard. Shen Dong had been entertaining the Fifth Prince and the adopted son of the Xiao family, Chu Junyi.

Shen Ling Han slightly raised her head, her watery eyes were filled with surprise, "Greetings Fifth Prince, greetings Young Master Chu, Ling Han was rude to you."

"Nothing." Baili Jinze said gently, "Just now, I saw Miss Shen and Miss Zhao looking slightly anxious. Did something happen?"

Shen Ling Han lowered her head when she heard what he said, her long and thick eyelashes trembled. She then raised her head with a smile and said, "It's nothing. Elder sister only angered my cousin by saying it unintentionally." Although he said that, that smile still had a pitiful and reluctant look to it, causing people to involuntarily frown.

Zhao Ruyun coldly glanced at Shen Ninghua and said, "Humph, unintentional? I'm afraid I've learned a lot from the outside world. Otherwise, how could I be so eloquent? "

Shen Ninghua's lips curled up into a smile. Her dark eyes stared straight at Shen Ling Han and Zhao Ruyun, "I just advised my cousin a few times, and she's angry? "Then I really should apologize to my cousin, but I still have to say the same thing. My cousin must also consider the face of Ling Han's sister and mother. Father will naturally take care of some things."

Hearing this, Shen Ling Han's heart skipped a beat. What Zhao Ruyun said just now was not pleasant. If it was revealed in front of the Fifth Prince and Chu Gongzi, the reputation of the Shen family would definitely be lost. Thinking of her mother's orders, Shen Ling Han suppressed the anger in her heart and smiled, "It's just a dispute between us sisters, it seems like Third Prince and Young Master Chu are going to be a joke."

Baili Jinze gently nodded his head, not continuing this conversation. Shen Dong's expression also became a lot better. It was only now that he realized that the number one beauty, Shen Lingghan, had lost some of her elegance compared to him just by looking at his face. If one added in his aura, none of the other young ladies present could match her.

Zhao Ruyun secretly and ruthlessly glanced at Shen Ninghua before raising his head to look at the handsome face of Hundred Miles Jin Ze. His eyes faintly shone.

"I heard that the Fifth Prince is most adept at drawing earlier, and today, we were just on the spur of the moment and were about to start painting. I wonder if we would be fortunate enough to ask the Fifth Prince for guidance?"

"I wonder if Miss Shen has a painting?" Chu Junyi shook the fan in her hand.

Hearing Chu Junyi's words, the Fifth Prince stopped in his tracks. The Xiao family had a special status in the Great An Dynasty. Even though Chu Junyi was the adopted son of the Xiao family, she still had a special status. Even though she was a prince, she was not favored by the emperor. In order to foster his power, he tried to rope in the Xiao family many times but to no avail. That was why he wanted to take action against the adopted son of the Xiao family.

"I'm not good at painting, but I've disappointed Young Master Chu." Shen Ninghua raised his eyes to meet Chu Junyi's, and the smile remained on his face.

"Sister just came back not long ago, I didn't expect to know you." Shen Dong's face darkened a little. Others might not know, but he was very clear that Shen Ninghua had spent the past half year recuperating in another village, and the Shen family couldn't tolerate having an unclear daughter. On the way back, I did meet Young Master Chu once, and my second sister knows Young Master Chu, is there a problem? " Shen Ninghua asked in puzzlement, causing Shen Lingghan to choke in shock.

"I've long heard that Miss Shen is an expert in painting with the zither, so I wonder if I have the opportunity to see your painting?" Baili Jinze looked at Shen Ling Han, gently changing the topic.

Shen Ling Han slightly lowered her head, gratefully looking at Baili Jinze, "Fifth Prince, please correct me."

Baili Jinze lightly smiled as he nodded his head, his gaze involuntarily landing on Shen Ninghua. He had also heard of the young mistress of the Shen family who had just returned, and upon seeing her today, he couldn't help but be astonished.

In the capital, it was rumored that the young miss of the Shen family, Shen Ling Han, was the prettiest in the capital, and her beauty was unrivaled. As he was thinking, he walked towards the pavilion under the guidance of Shen Ling Han and the rest.

Shen Ninghua smiled as she slowly got behind Shen Ninghua. As this thought flashed through her mind, she realized that Baili Jinze and Shen Lingghan had already known each other for a long time, and even this Fifth Prince had proposed to marry Shen Linghan many times. It was a pity that Shen Linghan's heart was very high. Her mother was the empress's younger sister, and her father was the prime minister who wielded power. Furthermore, she thought that she was unrivalled beauty. How could she think so highly of the Fifth Prince?

Therefore, while she was trying to come up with a variety of reasons to reject Baili Jingze's proposal, she was also displaying various expressions of helplessness. It made her more and more obsessed with Baili Jingze. Later on, when she was too feverish and sick to retreat, Mrs Zhao used her as a gift to Baili Jin Ze. After she woke up, she took care of him in every possible way and even said that she had completely given up on Shen Ling Han. Only then did she slowly let her guard down and carefully scheme for him.

It seemed like the relationship between Shen Ling Han and Baili Jin Ze must have long been going on, but she didn't notice it at all.

Chu Junyi waved the folding fan in her hand in a way that no one else had noticed. She smiled at Shen Ninghua and said, "Eldest Miss, your complexion doesn't look very good today."

The corners of Shen Ninghua's mouth curved in a smile. "Young Master Chu saw wrongly, I'm fine."

Seeing that Shen Ninghua had turned his head away without a trace of interest, Chu Junyi didn't get angry. She continued to fan herself with an unfathomable expression on her face.
