Because of this matter, Shen Xuanlin and Shen Ninghua became familiar with each other. Their relationship clearly improved by a lot. Shen Xuanlin would always wait at the entrance of Shen Ninghua's Moon Meeting Room when he had nothing to do. If Shen Ninghua found out, he would happily run inside to play once he received permission. If Shen Ninghua hadn't noticed, he wouldn't have been in a hurry to leave.

In the morning, the cyan sparrow glanced at the door, "Miss, the young master is here again."

Shen Ninghua had a helpless smile on his face. Many days had passed and he didn't know what was going on with Shen Xuanlin, but he seemed to be staring at her. He kept walking around and said, "Invite him in to speak."

Receiving the message from the blue sparrow, Shen Xuanlin rushed in, "Big sister."

"Mm, why are you here? Have you eaten breakfast?"

"Not yet..." When he heard that his elder sister was going out today, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to see her. When the sun had just risen, he crawled up and ran over.

Shen Ninghua looked at him disapprovingly and said, "Bai Yu, go and bring some food over for Xuan Lin to eat. You want to come over here and play any time you want, so you don't have to come that early. "

After publicly handling the matter of his outstanding subordinate, it could be said that the entire Shen residence was in a state of panic. After seeing Shen Ninghua's methods, no one wanted to continue butting heads with him.

Originally, when he heard that Shen Dong was punished by Shen Ninghua for kneeling down and feeling somewhat unhappy, he noticed the expressions of the servants in the mansion and the discomfort in his heart dissipated. Just a few days ago, a maidservant in Shen Yu Lan's yard had contradicted her master. After obtaining Shen Dong's approval, Shen Ning Hua directly sent him out. With these two times, the servants of the Shen family no longer dared to slack off. Everyone widened their eyes, afraid that they would miss anything.

Shen Xuanlin absent-mindedly ate his dessert as he stared at Shen Ninghua's makeup. He couldn't help muttering under his breath, "Big Sis, you're really pretty."

Today, Shen Ninghua was wearing a thin, blood-red muslin Luo Qun. On the outside, she was wearing a jade-colored muslin that was embroidered with bunches and peonies. This made her outstanding appearance look even more ethereal and breathtaking. Hearing Shen Xuanlin's words, the pearl in her hand suddenly stopped moving, and she laughed: "You're teasing big sister early in the morning?"

Shen Xuanlin's face flushed red as he lowered his head to refute, "No."

Hong Ling smiled after entering for a while, "Miss, the madame sent someone to say that the carriage is ready."

"Mm, got it." Shen Ninghua nodded and stood up to look at Shen Xuanlin, "Today you should study properly at home. I'm entering the palace."

Shen Xuanlin immediately got up and ran over to Shen Ninghua's side. He bit his lips a little awkwardly and asked, "Big Sis, are Mother and Second Sis coming out?"

Shen Ninghua's expression changed slightly. "Who told you that?"

"I... "I already know. The palace's holding a banquet today, and the empress has personally ordered mother and second sister to enter the palace as well."

"Are you afraid?"

Shen Xuanlin shook his head fiercely, "I'm not afraid of them."

Shen Ninghua asked, "Then, what are you worried about?"

"I was afraid that they would cause trouble for you, Big Sis. Mother and Second Sis have always disliked you." He had overheard Mrs Zhao and Shen Linghan's discussion about Shen Ninghua, and had even said that they would definitely kill her. At that time, it didn't matter if Shen Ninghua accepted it or not, but now it was different. He wanted to protect Shen Ninghua.

Shen Ninghua didn't expect him to be so straightforward. He paused slightly and said, "It's not like they don't like me. If you don't get too close to me, they definitely won't implicate you. You …"

"I'm not afraid of being implicated. Big sister, I want to protect you!" Shen Xuanlin was agitated.

Shen Ninghua smiled and ignored his words. "You're still young, you don't have to be involved in these matters."

Shen Xuanlin was about to argue when Bai Yu came over and reminded him, "Miss, it's time."

"Mm, let's go."

Watching Shen Ninghua's leaving figure, Shen Xuanlin stomped his feet in hatred. It was just as those servants had said, Big Sis has no one to rely on in the Shen family, so he must become big sis's backer! He was almost ten years old. He was no longer a child!

After the Second Prince returned to the dynasty and organized the military affairs, he directly handed over the military authority to the Emperor. The emperor was very happy. Not only had he been conferred the title of duke, he had even been bestowed the title of 'Virtuous Prince'. This was the first time a prince other than the crown prince had received such a title. The emperor seemed to still feel that it was not enough. He had ordered for a celebratory feast to be held, and officials of the fifth rank and above could bring their families and families with them.

Shen Dong would not accompany the female disciples, and had already brought Shen Xuanyin, Shen Xuanhua and the rest to ride into the palace.

At this moment, within the Songtao Courtyard, the first lady and Shen Ling Han were standing together. It was unknown if it was because she had been reflecting on herself in the ancestral hall for too long, but the first wife's aura had become much calmer. Although she had been chased out, her face did not show any signs of anger, only a faint sense of guilt and sadness.

The Su Clan and the Meng Clan supported the Xiao Clan from the left and right. The face of the Xiao family had always been gloomy and unsightly. Shen Ninghua quietly followed behind her with an indifferent expression on his face, as if he wasn't affected in the slightest.

"Greetings to mother (grandmother)." Mrs Zhao and Shen Ling Han bowed together.

Madam Xiao coldly sized up the two of them and ridiculed them: "Quickly get up. My old bones can't stand the worship of these two VIPs."

"Mother, these words of yours are like a fiend to a daughter-in-law." Mrs Zhao fell to her knees with a plop, her tears falling in an instant.

Shen Ling Han also kneeled down on the ground, not saying a word. She held the handkerchief and wiped her tears. Shen Ninghua looked at Shen Ling Han and couldn't help frowning inwardly. She had changed too much.

Shen Ling Han had lost a lot of weight, and her sharp chin made her eyes bigger and brighter. Her curved, willow shaped eyebrows were creased, and she looked like she was crying. It was an indescribably charming and gentle feeling. At this moment, she was like a weak willow in the wind or a delicate flower in the rain, causing people to want to take care of her at all times.

Since the empress personally called these two into the palace, the Xiao family naturally wouldn't be so foolish as to make things difficult for them. He could only suppress the anger in his heart, and his expression became even more unsightly. He ignored the two and allowed the Su Clan and Meng Clan to help him into the carriage.

Tears welled up in the Grand Matriarch's eyes as she turned to Shen Ninghua and said, "Ningxia, it was mother's fault. Mother already knew she was in the wrong."

"Mother, what are you talking about?" Shen Ninghua's tone was flat.

"I know that you have grievances in your heart, but it is understandable that you do not forgive me. "It's just that Ling Han is your sister, you are both the direct descendents of the master and need each other's help. Mother, please look after your sister."

Shen Ninghua looked at Shen Ling Han and said in an indifferent tone, "Mother is right. I will definitely take good care of my little sister."

Mrs Zhao immediately let out a sigh of relief and pulled Shen Ling Han over, "Alright, you and your sister are in the same carriage. Go quickly, don't make the madame wait." After he finished speaking, he walked directly to the carriage where the Xiao family was in.

Shen Ling Han bit her lips as if she was afraid of Shen Ninghua. When she noticed Shen Ninghua looking at her, she immediately revealed a smile and timidly called out, "Big Sis."

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, who would have thought that the person who had so arrogantly framed him would turn into a frightened white rabbit?

Shen Ninghua looked at her meaningfully and said, "Sister, hurry up and board the carriage. We can't be late for the palace banquet."

"Yes, sister."

Inside the carriage, Shen Ling Han sat quietly in a corner. For the time being, Shen Ninghua could not tell which side she was on, so she simply ignored her and closed her eyes to rest. She had a feeling that this time, entering the palace would not be peaceful.

She had expected that Mrs Zhao and Shen Ling Han would be released, but she didn't expect it to be so easy. These days, Shen Dong was still negotiating with the Zhao Family. The Zhao Family was unyielding at first, but when they found out that Zhao Yunxiang had touched Lady Xia's dowry, they softened down. First, he controlled the rumors and then secretly sent people to collect all of the dowry. Some of them couldn't be found, but some of them could be found to make up for it. On the tenth day, an entire one hundred taels of dowry were neatly delivered to Moon Facing Residence, along with five thousand taels of silver that were pressed under the box.

Shen Ninghua did not refuse, and accepted everything.

Shen Dong seemed to be annoyed with Mrs Zhao. Despite the Zhao Family's repeated requests, he did not loosen his grip on Zhao Yunxiang. It was only yesterday that the empress had sent an order to see Mrs Zhao and Shen Ling Han that they were allowed out of the ancestral hall.

Once again stepping into the Imperial Palace, Shen Ninghua surveyed the familiar surroundings, her eyes filled with a cold chill. This gorgeous cage with red walls and green tiles emitted a luxurious aura, and it was just as suffocating as before.

"Ling Han, you're here." Just as he got off the carriage, Zhao Ruyun walked over with a servant girl.

Shen Ling Han smiled and called her cousin, walking up and affectionately holding Zhao Ruyun's hand.

"How can you be this thin? It makes your heart ache to look at you. Some people do bad things but feel at ease. The heavens truly have no eyes." Zhao Ruyun glanced at Shen Ninghua and could not help but mock him.

Shen Ninghua raised his gaze. His gaze had already swept across Zhao Ruyun's hand. "Cousin's fingers are fine now?"

Zhao Ruyun abruptly withdrew his hand from his sleeve, and his eyes were filled with resentment. "Hmph! Are you disappointed that I'm fine?" Recalling the shame she felt when she kneeled down to admit her mistake, she couldn't help but shiver uncontrollably.

"Why should I be disappointed? Cousin's words are really weird. "

"Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. Shen Ninghua, do you think that you can take over Ling Han's position just because she's out of favour? "In your dreams!" Zhao Ruyun coldly mocked.

The smile on Shen Ninghua's face dimmed. "Cousin really does protect my Second Sister. Even though I know my fingers were festering because I grabbed the Poinsettia in her yard, I didn't mind in the slightest."

Shen Ling Han's face turned pale, and tears started to roll down her cheeks.

"No need to be hypocritical, I'll do whatever I want." Zhao Ruyun pulled Shen Ling Han along, "Cousin, aunty wants to see you. Don't cry anymore. Let's go."

Shen Ninghua snorted coldly in his heart. The ridicule in his eyes became even more obvious.

Chu Junyi fanned herself as she walked over. When she saw Shen Ninghua standing at the entrance to the palace, she walked over slowly. "Did someone leave Miss Shen here?"

Shen Ninghua turned her head and said, "That's right. I'll have to trouble you to bring me in."

Chu Junyi laughed. "If I can help the young lady, I won't hesitate to help."

"Then why aren't you leading the way?" Shen Ninghua raised an eyebrow.

Chu Junyi smiled and replied lazily, "Yes."
