EBE Chapter 633 Visiting Ye Yao
Chapter 633 Visiting Ye Yao
These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Ye Qianyao's heart.
She opened her eyes wide and looked at him in disbelief: "Who are you? How can you come to the Shen Mansion and make comments at will?"
Baili Qin sneered, as if everything was within her expectations.
Ye Qianyao tightly grasped the sheets in her hands, feeling powerless in her heart. The attitude of the woman in front of her made her feel unprecedentedly depressed, as if she had been degraded to the dust.
She didn't know the identity of this uninvited guest, but she could feel the threat he posed.
Ye Qianyao's heart moved and her eyes were fixed on Baili Qin.
This woman not only has outstanding looks, but also carries an unquestionable aura. Could she be Shen Yuming's secret lover outside?
Since marrying into the Shen family, Ye Qianyao has never spent a night with her husband. No matter how carefully she dresses up, Shen Yuming remains indifferent.
At this moment, her suspicion turned into anger and her body began to tremble involuntarily.
"Who are you? How do you know my husband? What is the relationship between you two?" she asked.
Baili Qin chuckled: "Why not take a guess?"
That smile made Ye Qianyao's heart sink suddenly, and her face turned pale in an instant.
The sight of the gorgeously dressed woman with sparkling gold bracelets on her wrists made Ye Qianyao feel a tingling sensation.
Shen Yuming had never bought her any gifts, but he was so generous to this woman, allowing her to live a rich life...
Ye Qianyao clenched her fists in anger, the jealousy and resentment in her heart almost swallowed her up.
"You shameless woman!"
She rushed towards Baili Qin, as if she wanted to tear her apart: "How dare you seduce my husband! I must destroy your face today!"
However, Baili Qin obviously did not expect such an attack and took a step back in horror.
At this moment, a palace maid quickly stepped forward and grabbed Ye Qianyao's wrist tightly.
"How dare you lay hands on Her Royal Highness the Princess? You are so bold!"
Hearing the word "princess", Ye Qianyao was stunned.
She looked at the woman in front of her in panic and realized that she had made a big mistake.
"Princess?" she asked stutteringly.
"Kneel down and apologize!" the palace maid shouted sternly.
Ye Qianyao was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat. It turned out that the person in front of her was not a concubine, but a noble princess.
She quickly knelt on the ground and said, "I was blind and did not recognize the great man. Please forgive me, Princess."
Baili Qin was also startled. The scene just now left her with lingering fears.
But she quickly regained her composure and looked down at Ye Qianyao who was kneeling on the ground. Although she was angry, she had some concerns because the other party was Mrs. Shen.
Finally, Baili Qin suppressed her anger and said coldly: "Since this is your first time meeting this princess, I will spare your life this time."
Ye Qianyao didn't expect the princess to be so easy to talk to. She kowtowed repeatedly and said with tears of gratitude: "Thank you so much, Princess, for not blaming me!"
Baili Qin looked at Mrs. Shen in front of her and felt extremely bored.
How could such a weak and haggard woman be worthy of the elegant Shen Yuming?
She couldn't help but think that Shen Yuming was so unlucky to marry such a wife.
"I'm tired, let's go back to the palace." Baili Qin said softly, then turned and left.
"Yes, Princess." The maid responded respectfully and followed behind.
Ye Qianyao was still kneeling on the ground, watching the Eighth Princess leave.
She stood up carefully until she could no longer see the princess. She was full of doubts: Why did the princess suddenly visit the Shen Mansion? What was the reason behind this?
As night fell, Shen Yuming returned home. As soon as he entered the house, a servant came forward to report: "Master, a distinguished guest is visiting today."
"Oh? Who is it?" Shen Yuming stopped and asked.
The servant replied in disbelief: "It was Her Royal Highness the Eighth Princess. She came to the mansion at noon."
Hearing this, Shen Yuming immediately thought of Baili Qin.
"What is she doing here? Did she come to see me?"
"No, sir. The princess just went to see the lady and left soon after." The servant told the truth.
Shen Yuming frowned, then quickly walked towards the inner courtyard to look for Ye Qianyao.
He flung open the door.
When she saw her husband, a hint of surprise flashed across Ye Qianyao's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by Shen Yuming's cold expression.
"Husband, why did you come here suddenly?" Her voice was filled with anticipation.
However, Shen Yuming's eyes were full of disgust.
"What did the Eighth Princess say to you today?"
His tone was cold, and he was clearly more concerned about the princess's problems than her health.
Ye Qianyao's heart sank. Facing her husband's indifference, she felt a chill.
"Husband..." She murmured softly, as if seeking a little warmth.
"Hurry up and speak!" Shen Yuming urged impatiently, as if every extra second he stayed was torture.
"Her Royal Highness didn't say anything special, she just came to visit me for a while."
Ye Qianyao said bitterly, trying to find some tenderness in her husband's eyes, but she only saw suspicion.
"Really?" Shen Yuming stared into her eyes, as if trying to penetrate the surface and find out the hidden facts.
"Really, Her Royal Highness the Princess left very soon." Ye Qianyao's voice was filled with unconcealable disappointment and pain.
Shen Yuming's face was gloomy, but after hearing Ye Qianyao's words, a stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
Things were going according to his plan. The Eighth Princess' sudden visit to Ye Qianyao today was not a bad thing.
This shows that the eighth princess already knew about his marriage and had doubts about it, so she came to meet him specially.
However, big things cannot be rushed and must be done step by step.
If he wants to become the eighth princess's consort, he still needs to wait for the right time.
Baili Qin returned to the palace, leaned lazily on the chaise longue, and tasted the grapes peeled for her by her maid.
She looked far away and said softly, "Mrs. Shen is just like this. Shen Yuming really wronged himself by marrying her."
She realized from today's meeting that Mrs. Shen was not favored. Although they were husband and wife, a rift had already developed between them.
The corners of Baili Qin's mouth rose slightly, and there was a hint of coldness in her eyes.
"It would be great if Madam Shen was gone."
The eighth princess was already eighteen years old. After Concubine Zhuang brought her back to the palace, she began to worry about her marriage.
However, due to the reputation of the Eighth Princess being spoiled and domineering, the young men of the noble families in the capital did not dare to marry this princess, for fear of bringing a difficult master into their family.
This made Concubine Zhuang very anxious.
In the end, Concubine Zhuang decided to have her marriage arranged by the Emperor.
Since the emperor has appointed, you have to accept it even if you are unwilling.
Therefore, Concubine Zhuang carefully selected several men who were both talented and handsome, and gave their portraits to the Eighth Princess.
"Qin'er, do you see anyone you like? These people have been carefully selected by your mother, and you are old enough to get married." Concubine Zhuang said gently.
