Rebirth of the Malicious Empress of Military Lineage |LK|

Tit for Tat

Being in love with Prince Ding and apologise to Prince Ding. Which female would be willing to lose her face in front of her beloved man? In the last lifetime Shen tzuyu also said like that and Old Shen Furen thought likewise but Shen lisa felt that it was embarrassed to death and was then confined by Old Shen Furen in a rage.

One sentence of because of being in love with Prince Ding and did not know any shame and thus ruined own reputation and also implicated the entire residence. Shen tzuyu looked gentle and elegant but her mind could turn and twist things. Shen lisa could not help but look at her.

Shen tzuyu just finish speaking when she saw Shen lisa looking at herself. That pair of black eyes like grapes was exceptionally clear as if they contain some special intention, made her feel shock for a moment.

In the next second, Shen lisa faint voice was heard, "Second Older Sister, what in love with His Highness Prince Ding. This sentence cannot be said anyhow. At the moment, Fifth Lady is a young lady yet to be wed. To say such thing, one would fear that this would destroy Fifth Lady's reputation."

Shen tzuyu was stunned.

The entire noble circle in the capital knew that Shen lisa is in love with Prince Ding. Although Shen lisa had not stated it before but her words and deeds have indicated as much. Why was it denied now?

She smiled, "Fifth Younger Sister, there is only our own family here. These things need not be hidden..."

"Second Older Sister!" As she was talking, Shen lisa suddenly interrupted her by speaking loudly and severely said, "Second Older Sister must be careful of her words as trouble will come when improper words are spoken. His Highness Prince Ding is a Royal aristocrat and we as old influential family must be even more cautious of our conduct. Previously it was Fifth Lady that was young and immature thus words and deeds were misunderstood but what happen the other day was a lesson. Fifth Lady will restricts one's words and deeds so may Second Older Sister please not say such words."

These words made not only Shen tzuyu but everyone in the house, including Old Shen Furen, stunned.

Shen lisa was usually very soft and timid and had never spoken loudly before. She was one who was obedient and easy to control. How could her words be this swift and severe?

A flash of light crossed Chen Rou Qiu's eyes. Shen tzuyu was still young, thus was not as smart as her. She came from a family of scholars but was not without smarts. Usually she was lofty in nature and would never admit defeat thus when she saw her own daughter was at a disadvantage, she was annoyed and thus immediately said gently and softly, "Fifth Lady could clear up with a sentence of being in love or not but when all is said and done, who is able to guess a female's heart. But Fifth Lady better listen to Third Shenshen words, your Second Older Sister words were not wrong. His Highness Prince Ding's status is noble thus in any case, one should apologise to him."

"That is correct." Old Shen Furen also recovered and said, "Send a card to Prince Ding's residence tomorrow and personally apologise."

Shen lisa almost laughed with rage. These words could actually be used to deceive the innocent her in the previous lifetime. To see it now, she a Di daughter of a family with military lineage, her status was very noble, so why should she go to a Prince to apologise. If that was done, where would Shen Xin's put his face at? This would afraid be another joke that would be spread in the capital from tomorrow onwards.

She also could finally understand that Old Furen saw Shen Xin, who was delivered by the YuanPei, from the First household as a sore in her eyes and could not wait to see the First household to make a fool of themselves every day. The best it would be for it to collapse as early as possible and since Shen Xin and Shen Furen were not in the capital and she could use her as a raft.

In this world, how can there be such a good thing?

Shen lisa lightly smiled and her eyes fell onto Shen Qing who was quiet from the beginning. She said, "Eldest Sister, when I fell into the water, there was only you at my side."

Shen Qing raised her head and nodded quietly. She had already thought of it ahead, Shen lisa would definitely say that it was her who pushed her into the water but Shen Qing was not afraid. The one who made the decisions in the Shen family now was Old Furen and Ren Wan Yun and Shen lisa only had a title of a young lady but was in actuality a daughter that three household would not care about. As long as she insisted, Old Furen and Ren Wan Yu will still side her. At that time Shen lisa would be considered as lying and definitely be disliked by Old Furen and would be punished heavily. She deserved it! Who told her that a vulgar and ignorant daughter like her can also fight with her for Prince Ding, she should have drowned on that day!

"Eldest Sister, did you also saw His Highness prince Ding?" Shen lisa asked but she did not only meant this.

"Have seen." Shen Qing replied.

"Then it is as such. In the previous day, it was obvious that Eldest Sister and I was playing at the edge of the pond and accidentally fell into the water. At the same moment His Highness Prince Ding who pass by the Shen residence came in to get the painting from Second Shu met with the incident." Shen lisa shook her head, "If I were to steal a look of Prince Ding, how would I get the news from. It was unreasonable for Second and Third Shu's servant to pass the news to the Inner Residence. How would I know that His Highness Prince Ding would come to the Shen residence to request a painting from Second Shu, unless one is a prophet? Or..." She leisurely continued, "Could it be that His Highness Prince Ding sent an card to our residence?"

Shen Qing did not understand the meaning of what Shen lisa was saying and wanted to refute with a frown but she heard her own mother suddenly shouted, "Eldest daughter!" The voice was unable to hide the urgency behind.

Shen lisa glance at the pale looking Ren Wan Yun and suddenly nervous Chen Rou Qiu and smiled lightly.

What she said, how could anyone not hear the meaning behind when there were so many smart people in the residence.

When Fu sehun over to the Shen residence the day before, it was because when he passed by the Shen residence, he remembered of the chess bet with Shen Gui and went looking for Shen Gui for a painting.

Now Shen lisa said that a card was sent in advance... Presently the Emperor hated when the princes and officials got too close and if one were to send an invitation in advance, what does the card meant? To plan the future next in line?

There are thousands of eyes and ears in the world, who would know if there were any spies of the Royal Family in Shen residence. Some words cannot be even said.

The sentence from Shen lisa had already gone above the conduct of females to the loyalty of the officials. Shen Xin is in the Northwest region and naturally would not affect him but there is still Shen Gui and Shen Wan in the Shen residence and these two people held positions in court.

This reason, Shen tzuyu and Shen Qing did not understand but Ren Wan Yun and Chen Rou Qiu definitely understood.

Shen lisa sneered in her heart. They wanted to trample on her reputation so she brought out Shen Gui's and Shen Wan's head to bet. Did her Second and Third Shen understood? Is it worth it? Do they dare?
