Chapter 260: Palace Banquet.
As the Spring Festival is approaching, people in the mansion have started to buy New Year's goods.
Ever since Shen Yanfeng heard those words, he seemed to be somewhat hurt by Jiang Sujin, so he didn't come to Jiang's house for two days.
Yang Xiuyun was worried about Jiang Sujin, but Jiang Sujin seemed very relaxed.
She had already thought it through. Shen Yanfeng would never take the initiative to go to the prefectural government office with her. However, she could hold out for a few months. When Shen Yanfeng couldn't stand it anymore, he would naturally agree to divorce her.
She was not planning to get married anyway, so she could naturally endure it.
But she knew that Shen Yanfeng would not be able to endure it.
How could he stay plain all the time?
He became dependent on her again only because he was attracted by her beauty. In fact, deep down, he still looked down on her.
If it's beauty, every woman has it, there's no need to wait for her, Jiang Sujin.
Moreover, he is powerful and can marry a young and beautiful girl at any time if he wants.
A fickle woman like her is not worthy of him.
As the end of the year was approaching, the imperial palace held a special family banquet and specifically invited princes, nobles, powerful people and their families to attend the banquet.
The Shen family is a royal family of nobles, so they were naturally on the invitation list.
Jiang Sujin is both the emperor's second wife and the prime minister's daughter, so naturally she was on the invitation list.
When she arrived at the palace, she happened to meet Shen Yanfeng's carriage.
The two of them got off the carriage together, and Shen Yanfeng subconsciously turned his head to look at Jiang Sujin.
After meeting his gaze, Jiang Sujin subconsciously turned her face away.
When the two children saw Shen Yanfeng, they couldn't help but run over.
"father!"
"father!"
Shen Yanfeng hurriedly hugged the two children, then reached out and touched their faces.
"Listen to your mother and don't run around, okay?"
Shen Yanfeng noticed that she only brought her two sons, so he couldn't help but ask, "Didn't Sisi bring him?"
Jiang Sujin: "She was too young, and the weather was so cold, so I didn't bring her with me."
Shen Yanfeng: "It's indeed too cold today."
Jiang Sujin noticed that Shen Yanfeng seemed to have lost some weight and his complexion looked very bad.
"Han Han is gone!"
Shen Yanfeng saw the two children return to her side, and then she took the children away.
She wanted to tell everyone in the world that she wanted to divorce him, so she even went to the banquet separately from him.
Shen Yanfeng couldn't eat at all in the past two days, and he couldn't sleep at night. His mind was full of things about him and Jiang Sujin.
I thought Jiang Sujin would definitely come today, so I got up early, but I didn't expect to actually run into her.
She was still as beautiful as ever, her clothes and headdress were perfectly matched, and as soon as she appeared, everything here seemed to be eclipsed.
Shen Yanfeng took a deep breath, and just as he was about to catch up, the old lady's carriage suddenly stopped in front of him.
In this case, he would naturally wait for her to go in together.
As soon as Old Madam Shen came down, she hurriedly approached Shen Yanfeng and said, "Grandson, when you go there later, remember to take a close look at Princess Zhaohe. It is said that she admires you very much."
Shen Yanfeng: "There are many people who admire me, do I have to stare at them all?"
Madam Shen: "This is the daughter of the late emperor, the princess of Dawei, you should naturally give her some face."
Shen Yanfeng: "Let's see what happens. Let's go in quickly. It's getting late now."
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Shen was afraid that the time had passed, so she hurriedly took her two daughters-in-law and followed Shen Yanfeng in.
Two days ago, the Empress Dowager asked Princess Showa, and when the princess heard Shen Yanfeng's name, she couldn't help but blush.
She had no objection to the Empress Dowager's suggestion that she be made a co-wife.
When she was very young, she had heard of his wisdom and bravery. Later, after seeing him in person, she was completely fascinated by his handsome appearance.
Ever since that incident, she has felt dissatisfied with everyone she looks at, which is also the reason why she has not married yet.
In short, she liked Shen Yanfeng very much. As long as she could be with him, she didn't mind even if she was his co-wife.
At the same time, the Queen Mother also told Princess Linglan about the couple's current situation.
When Princess Showa heard that they were going to divorce, she naturally became even more excited.
This means that she can live happily with Shen Yanfeng from now on.
So Princess Showa dressed up specially today, because she could finally express her love to the person she loved with a legitimate reason.
As soon as Jiang Sujin entered the hall, she met the gaze of a woman. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she actually felt that there was hostility in the woman's eyes.
Judging from her clothes, her identity should be not simple. She didn't tie her hair up in a bun, which meant she was not married yet.
Dressed like this in the palace, not yet married, if she is not a concubine, then she can only be a princess.
After a while, the Shen family came in together.
When Mrs. Shen saw her two great-grandsons, she couldn't help but reach out and wave to them.
Jiang Sujin didn't want her children to be ignorant of etiquette, so she whispered something to the two children, and the two children went to pay their respects to their great-grandmother.
Shen Yanfeng was very touched. Since Jiang Sujin was able to give face to the old lady, the scene would not be too ugly.
Old Madam Shen looked at the two children with a smile on her face and said, "You two don't leave, just sit next to your great-grandmother, okay?"
The two children looked at each other, and then shook their heads at the same time.
He He was the first to speak: "No, I want to find my mother."
Upon hearing this, Madam Shen's face instantly darkened.
Hanhan: "Great-grandmother, let's go accompany mother first, and then come to accompany great-grandmother later."
Shen Yanfeng: "Your great-grandmother doesn't understand your appetite. You should go to your mother. After all, she knows you better."
"I know dad!"
Shen Yanfeng touched the two children and then asked them to go to the opposite side.
Old Madam Shen snorted coldly and said, "These two children are always provoked by Jiang Sujin. They will definitely not get close to the Shen family in the future."
Shen Yanfeng: "Grandma, why are you saying these things? How many children don't get close to their mothers?"
Old Madam Shen glanced at him sideways, then couldn't help but snorted heavily.
At this moment, she suddenly saw Princess Showa, which made her expression instantly become amiable.
She quickly stood up and bowed to Princess Showa. Princess Lily of the Valley smiled and then walked over in small steps.
When Jiang Sujin saw this scene, she subconsciously moved closer to Yang Xiuyun.
"Mom, who is this woman?"
Yang Xiuyun: "This is Princess Zhaohe, the youngest daughter of the late emperor."
She noticed that Princess Showa walked towards Shen Yanfeng, so she couldn't help but said to Jiang Sujin: "What are they doing..."
Jiang Sujin: "Stay calm, it's their freedom to do what they want."
