Chapter 549: Delay
Translator: Lordbluefire
Shen Qianhui looked at Jing Zhen and saw him fall silent for a while before saying, ‘Wife, I need to go and appease the Luo family.”
Shen Qianhui was slightly taken aback.
She had thought that Jing Zhen would refuse...
In the entertainnt industry, many beautiful won, young actors, and even executives had tried to get close to Jing Zhen.
But Jing Zhen had never paid attention to them.
It was the sa when Shen Qianhui was in the Shen family, and later when they left the Shen family and relied solely on Jing Zhen’s inco.
The couple had actually experienced ups and downs and had been tested, so they trusted each other.
Because of it, Shen Qianhui never had to worry about him when it ca to won. However, she had never expected that one day, they would have to face reality...
The Luo family controlled the army, and if the Luo family was unstable, then Country A would be in chaos.
The Luo family couldn’t be touched..
Shen Qianhui forced a smile and nodded. “Alright, you go.”
Jing Zhen patted her shoulder. “I’ll have Jingjing co and keep you company.”
Shen Qianhui didn’t say anything.
Jing Zhen waited until Shen Ruojing was called before he left.
Shen Ruojing then saw him out.
When they reached the door, Shen Ruojing didn’t argue on behalf of Shen Qianhui but instead, she raised an eyebrow. “Are you sure you want to target Luo Sha first?”
Jing Zhen rubbed his forehead.
He was silent for a mont before saying, “The Luo family is the most difficult to appease, so we must target Luo Sha first.’
The Ji family had sent a lowborn girl into the palace, which was disrespectful to the royal family, so they didn’t dare to ask anything of Jing Zhen. Since the Yan family was Jing Zhen’s maternal family, even if they were dissatisfied, they wouldn’t really overthrow Jing Zhen.
Only the Luo family had sent in their legitimate daughter. Luo Sha was the beloved daughter of the head of the Luo family.
Shen Ruojing nodded and said, “Alright then.”
After that, she went back to accompany Shen Qianhui.
Sitting at the dining table, Shen Ruojing wanted to say sothing, but Shen Qianhui sighed.
Shen Ruojing wanted to comfort her. “Mother, Father, he...”
“I know.”
When Shen Qianhui said this, Shen Ruojing was stunned.
She furrowed her brows. “You already knew?”
‘Yes.” Shen Qianhui placed her hand on her abdon and lowered her eyes. ‘After so many years together with your father, I know very well what you father and daughter are up to...”
Shen Ruojing imdiately didn’t dare to say anything.
On the other side.
Jing Zhen arrived at Luo Sha’s palace.
Luo Sha was extrely excited and happy. She had prepared a lavish dinner, and as soon as Jing Zhen sat down, she imdiately stood up to serve him food.
Jing Zhen spoke gently to her, ‘Sit down, I’m not used to this.”
Hearing this, Luo Sha revealed a sweet smile and sat across from Jing Zhen.
After accompanying Luo Sha and eating a bit, Luo Sha asked, “Your Majesty, will you be staying the night?”
Jing Zhen smiled. “Of course, after all, this is the Queen Dowager’s intention.’ Luo Sha glared at him. “What about Your Majesty’s intention?”
After that, Jing Zhen’s peach blossom eyes flicked up slightly, and his gaze toward Luo Sha was deep and affectionate, making Luo Sha feel for a mont that Jing Zhen liked her.
Upon further thought, she was the youngest consort in the palace and the most dazzling presence among the three. What did it matter if Queen Shen was beautiful?
Queen Shen was almost fifty years old. She was even older than Jing Zhen!
Luo Sha was very confident in herself.
She stood up directly and walked toward Jing Zhen. ‘Your Majesty, let’s not waste any more ti and get down to business? Jing Zhen, however, smiled. “Let’s take a bath first.”
Luo Sha shyly smiled. “...I’ve already bathed.’
Jing Zhen. “?”
He was slightly taken aback and then smiled again. ‘Well, I still need to bathe...”
Luo Sha’s face imdiately turned red. “Your Majesty, you don’t have to...”
Having said that, Jing Zhen stood up. “It’s not good for you like this.” After saying that, he called soone in to prepare bathwater.
Jing Zhen then entered the bathroom and soaked in the bathwater. After waiting for a long ti without hearing any movent outside, he imdiately took out his phone and sent a ssage to Shen Ruojing. [Why aren’t you here yet?]
Shen Ruojing replied quickly. [What’s the rush?]
Jing Zhen.
How could he not be in a hurry?
If she didn’t co soon, he’d be compromised!
Jing Zhen was stalling in the bathroom, soaking in the tub, and killing ti when he suddenly heard a knock on the bathroom door. “Your Majesty, why are you taking so long? Do you need Luo Sha to help you scrub your back?” Jing Zhen.
He swallowed loudly, and the mont Luo Sha pushed the door open, he imdiately stood up from the water and wrapped himself in a bathrobe.
Luo Sha then approached and reached out to hug him. ‘Your Majesty, you’re really too slow!”
Jing Zhen dodged Luo Sha. When she lunged at him, he suddenly pushed her away.
Luo Sha could only look at Jing Zhen in confusion, not understanding his actions.
Jing Zhen hesitated for a mont.
With no other way out, he tightened his bath towel and suddenly sneezed several tis.
Then, he asked, “What perfu are you wearing? It’s too pungent!”
Luo Sha.
Her face turned even redder as she sniffed herself. “I didn’t use anything, did
Jing Zhen frowned. “Is it the shower gel then?”
Hearing this, Luo Sha felt wronged. “Your Majesty, I didn’t use anything...”
Her eyes then reddened. ‘Are you slandering ... or are you saying that you don’t want to get close to ?
Jing Zhen. “!”
He imdiately laughed. ‘How could that be? I was imdiately attracted by you when I got off the plane today...”
Luo Sha was about to step forward with a smile when there was a knock on the door. After that, Yu Jing entered. “Your Majesty, Queen Shen has a stomachache!”
Luo Sha’s smile froze on her face.
Jing Zhen paused and hurriedly said to Luo Sha, “I’ll go and check.”
Luo Sha gritted her teeth in anger. ‘Your Majesty, if Queen Shen has a stomachache, you should call the royal doctor. What good will it do for you to check?”
Jing Zhen replied, “Nonsense, she carries my only son and the future crown prince in her belly. Of course, I have to check!’
Jing Zhen quickly changed his clothes and left.
Seeing this, Luo Sha angrily smashed all the cups on the table to the ground!!
Jing Zhen quickly returned to his palace. Seeing Shen Qianhui lying in bed, he breathed a sigh of relief. He then looked at Shen Ruojing. “Why were you so late? You know, if you were any later, soone else would have taken advantage of your father!
Shen Ruojing lazily said, “It would have served you right.”
Jing Zhen.
Shen Qianhui looked worried. “Is this okay for us?
Jing Zhen imdiately replied, “The old witch won’t let go. The only thing that can restrain her is an offspring. Qianhui, I’m sorry, but you can only be a pampered and arrogant favorite!”
Shen Qianhui didn’t mind these things.
Jing Zhen leaned over. ‘Wife, you don’t know how nauseous I felt when Luo Sha ca close to . I had to hold it in. Ah, please send soone to rescue earlier next ti.”
Shen Qianhui nodded. “Alright, alright. Sorry for the trouble...”
Shen Ruojing.
This couple really didn’t treat her as an outsider, displaying affection openly before her.
Luckily, she had been used to it since she was a child, so she leisurely walked out. ‘Alright, you two can talk privately here. I won’t be a third wheel.’
Shen Qianhui’s face turned red.
Jing Zhen said, “You should have left earlier.”
Shen Ruojing rolled her eyes as she left the room.
At 10:30 pm.
Shen Ruojing quietly walked out of her room and saw Song Chen waiting outside, silently watching her.
The handso man’s face had a hint of toughness that made her feel a little dazed as if she was seeing Chu Cichen. But the next mont, the man smiled, revealing a hint of childishness.
Shen Ruojing.
She hesitated for a mont. “What are you doing here?”
Song Chen answered, “Waiting for you to watch the show.”
Shen Ruojing frowned. ‘You don’t have to go. I can go alone.”
However, Song Chen followed her closely. ‘Jingjing, I want to be with you. After all, you’re alone in this unfamiliar place. What if sothing happens?
Upon hearing this, the corners of Shen Ruojing’s mouth curled. “Whatever you say. ”
During the day, she had inquired about Princess Consort Ji’s residence, so she took Song Chen with her at that mont. She was quietly approaching Princess Consort Ji’s window with Song Chen and waited silently.
At exactly 11 pm.
A man dressed as a royal guard indeed ca over and entered Princess Consort Ji’s palace!
Ambiguous sounds quickly erged from the room...
Shen Ruojing’s eyes darkened, and she cautiously peeked in through the glass window....
