Generally speaking, the happiest person at this birthday banquet is none other than Jinghe, if it weren't for his age, he would be able to jump up and walk, as for why he was so happy, no one dared to ask.

Maybe people love to laugh by nature.

After the banquet was over, in the dead of night, in the hall, the Shen family was all there, but the atmosphere was extremely dull and depressing.

Sun Qiao was an interesting person, and seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he hurriedly led Shen Shaoheng to take Shen Qingyue with him, asked for his resignation, and went back to the courtyard.

Originally, Shen Qingyue was still a little worried, and she knew in her heart that Shen Ji was often unhappy, probably because of the fact that the people from the East Palace came to give a birthday gift today.

The two sisters looked at each other, Shen Yunchu handed her a reassuring look, signaling her to go first, and hesitated before being dragged away by Sun Qiao.

The third lady, Liang Miaoyu, is also a person who can look at the eyes, her fox-like eyes turned around in the hall, and she also quietly pulled Shen Shuyao to ask for her resignation and went back to the courtyard.

For a while, only Shen Jichang, Shen Yunchu and Bai Weiyu were left in the huge hall, but no one spoke, and the atmosphere was even more dull than just now.

Shen Jichang always had a dark face, Bai Weiyu sat on the side, pouring tea with a calm expression, Shen Yunchu sat on the side, compared with weekdays, this time she was rarely a little cramped and uneasy.

After being silent for a long time, Shen Yunchu finally couldn't help it, as the so-called long pain is better than short pain, rather than spending it like this all the time, it is better to take the initiative to talk about it.

After thinking about it, she mustered up the courage and took the initiative to speak, "Daddy, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked Gonggong Jing to send congratulatory gifts, my daughter really didn't know about it in advance, and besides, I don't know him well......"

said, the last sentence, obviously a little lacking in confidence.

When Shen Ji heard this, his dark face softened, and he raised his eyes to look at Shen Yunchu, who was sitting on the side pinching the corners of his clothes, with a trace of stubborn grievances in his eyes.

He looked at Shen Yunchu for a long time before he said, "You really didn't have a private relationship with him?" ”

"Of course not!" Shen Yunchu vetoed, "I can guarantee that I have never taken the initiative to provoke him." "Whether he took the initiative or not, this kind of thing is not something she can decide.

Hearing this, Shen Jichang's face gradually softened, and finally he breathed a long sigh of relief, speaking of which, he was really worried just now, in case Shen Yunchu really had something with Bai Yuheng, she was still so young, how could he rest assured that he would hand it over to Bai Yuheng.

Besides, what kind of good person can be who can have that kind of mind for such a young child? He categorically wouldn't agree either.

Don't say that the other party is the crown prince, even if it is the emperor, he has to find a way to stir up the yellow, otherwise, Shen Yunchu will only suffer if he marries him.

But as far as he knows, the prince is indeed paranoid and ruthless, at a young age, he is already a well-known villain in the officialdom, and there is a very set of methods for torturing people, but the prince is the prince after all, and his ruthlessness is still different from the evil of the hooligans in the market.

The basic bottom line of being a person is still there, and he has never done anything that is inferior to a beast, and he is not the kind of person who Shen Ji often thinks of having thoughts that a child should not have.

For Bai Yuheng, in fact, Shen Jichang is not unoptimistic, but if he really wants to, he can say it bluntly and discuss.

He didn't say anything like this, he directly sent someone to give gifts to the door, and it was all kinds of rare treasures plus a mansion, so generous, it was impossible to make people think about it, it was nothing more than trying to force Shen Jichang to comply, and if he didn't agree, he had to agree.

This approach is really overbearing and uncomfortable.

At the same time, he naturally believed Shen Yunchu's words, what Shen Yunchu was like, as a father, he still knew him very well when he got along with him day and night, and she said that if she didn't, she would definitely not lie to her.

In this way, it made Shen Jichang even more puzzled, so what is the problem?

Didn't he look away like Pei Changgong again?

Shen Jichang looked at Shen Yunchu with puzzled eyes, Shen Yunchu gritted his teeth, and he didn't know how to explain it, such a thing as rebirth was too ridiculous, even if she said it, Shen Jichang might not believe it.

Just as the atmosphere at the scene was about to condense again, Bai Weiyu took the brewed tea and handed it to Shen Jichang, "Master, this matter is indeed strange, but now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in the Imperial City, no matter how entangled you are, it will be useless." ”

"Anyway, let's pay more attention to it, if there is anything, we still have to wait for him to come back, you can only find out if you ask."

"Crispy also said, I don't know, no matter how we discuss it here, it won't help, what do you say?"

Listening to Bai Weiyu's words, thinking about it, it seems that this is also the truth, Shen Jichang sighed a little helplessly, but the teacup she handed over, hesitated for a moment, drank it all, and felt a lot more at ease.

He put the cup in his hand a little heavily, got up and took Bai Weiyu's hand, and called Linlang in, "Go back to the yard with your young lady, it's not early, rest early." ”

"Yes." Linlang blessed his body, and he wanted to leave with Shen Yunchu.

Seeing that he didn't plan to pursue Bai Yuheng's congratulatory gift for the time being, Shen Yunchu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, not that she deliberately wanted to hide it, but if Shen Jichang knew about Bai Yuheng's night break into her boudoir.

According to his temper, when Bai Yuheng comes back, Gao Gao will go to the East Palace to make a fuss for other reasons.

The current Bai Yuheng should not be ready to deal with the Shen family in the real sense, but if Shen Ji often goes, in this way, the Shen family and the Liangzi of the East Palace will really be concluded.

Shen Yunchu followed Linlang out of the hall, and inadvertently glanced at it, but happened to see Shen Jichang secretly holding Bai Weiyu's hand, and pinched her waist quite ambiguously.

Bai Weiyu turned her head to glare at him and motioned to him: "Be honest, the child hasn't gone far yet." ”

Shen Yunchu stepped out of the threshold, looked back, and only heard Shen Jichang answer with a smile: "What Madam said is, then let's go back to the room too?" ”

Bai Weiyu didn't speak, just rolled her eyes, turned her face away, and a faint flush was visible on her face.

Shen Yunchu stood at the door, staring at the two people leaning together in the hall with a wicked smile, Linlang hurriedly stepped forward and took her hand, her expression was a little unnatural: "Miss, it's late, let's go back quickly." ”

Hearing this, Shen Yunchu turned his head to look at Linlang, but Linlang just looked away, as if he was afraid that Shen Yunchu would ask something she couldn't answer.

Fortunately, although she looks like a child on the outside, she is no longer on the inside, Shen Yunchu naturally understands everything, she just smiled at Linlang, and then took her hand and left.

After the birthday banquet, Shen Jichang didn't seem to be in a good mood for several days, only when he saw Bai Weiyu, his face could be eased, and Shen Yunchu also knew that he minded Bai Yuheng's high-profile approach at the birthday banquet that day.

Speaking of which, the East Palace and the Shen family have never had a relationship, and there is almost no contact, although every time the Shen family holds a banquet, they will send invitations to the East Palace.

But every time it is a courtesy, no matter what the banquet, Bai Yuheng has never appeared, even if it is a gift, it is just a random one or two pieces that will not make the East Palace lose its dignity, it has never been so high-profile and attentive as this time, and it is specially sent by Jing He.

What kind of person is Jinghe, the person in charge of the East Palace, the person who used to be around Queen Shangguan, it can be said that he watched Bai Yuheng grow up, his status is not low at all, Bai Yuheng asked him to send it in person, which is enough to show how much he attaches importance to it.

This kind of thing has always been half happy and half sad, in fact, to put it in his own heart, Shen Jichang didn't want Shen Yunchu to marry Bai Yuheng, to be precise, he didn't want her to have a relationship with any prince.

The Shen family has a big business, and there are few people who can talk to the Shen family, but it is not nothing, and regardless of the character of the princes, the so-called companion is like a tiger, and none of those princes and grandchildren are unambitious.
