Chapter 844 - Shen Yunya Was Set Up (1/2)

“Oh, my child…” The Empress Dowager wanted to refuse. But when she saw the pleading look in Xi Jin’s eyes, she really could not bear to say no. She could only nod and say, “As you wish, as you wish. She will be conferred as the secondary consort. But you have to treat Yun’er better in the future. Let her be the senior. Shen Yunya cannot be more senior than her in this lifetime.”

“Empress Dowager…” Luo Shiyun wanted to anxiously object but was stopped by her mother.

Xi Jin did not immediately agree. Instead, he looked at Shen Yunya awkwardly and in distress. He said, “Ya’er…”

Yuan Fangfei spoke for Shen Yunya first and bowed in thanks, saying, “Your humble subject thanks the Empress Dowager and Crown Prince.”

Now that every piece of evidence pointed to them, it was already excellent that she could still be conferred as a secondary consort. One must quit while ahead. She could only endure. Once the Empress Dowager passed away, the Crown Prince would have the final say in conferring the consort titles.

Therefore, she did not take these matters seriously at all. Anyway, no one could predict what was going to happen in the future.

Xi Jin flipped open the blanket. He stretched one leg out and his white figure landed at the same time. He had wanted to get out of bed to thank her for her favor, but he was stopped by the Empress. “She has already allowed you to do so. There’s no need to get up. You’d better stay in bed to take good care of your health.”

“Imperial Grandmother, your grandson thanks you,” Xi Jin spoke weakly as he leaned halfway against the bed.

“In that case, it’s getting late. We will all retire. As for today’s matter, be sure to…”

“Wait.”

Hearing the shout, the crowd looked toward Luo Shiyun and saw her pick up a white handkerchief very carefully. There was a suspicious liquid on it. While she picked it up, that kind of male scent spread out. Everyone present suddenly understood and came over. One by one they averted their eyes in embarrassment.

How could such a thing actually fall out in public?
