Feng Tianlan cared about Brother Jin so much. She never even hesitated over revealing her own identity on their wedding day just to stop Shen Yunya from getting married to Brother Jin. Why would she plan such a thing right now?
Therefore, what Feng Tianlan said was not really trustworthy.
“I just didn’t want you to be his Crown Princess Consort. However, if you’re just his concubine with Luo Shiyun suppressing you from the top…” Feng Tianlan curled her lips and put up a complacent smile as she spoke. “Shen Yunya, do you think your life will be great at the palace?”
Based on what happened tonight, Luo Shiyun and Shen Yunya were irreconcilably hostile to each other. After she entered the palace, they would definitely be like fire and water, fighting each other to the death.
This was probably why Xi Jin chose Luo Shiyun. It was because she never suppressed her hot temper and was very straightforward. Now that she was the second consort, she could suppress Shen Yunya. There would be a huge scene when Shen Yunya entered the palace through the back door tomorrow.
“I don’t care about one measly Luo Shiyun.” Shen Yunya gritted her teeth while wearing a ruthless expression on her face. Even if she was a concubine, she would still find a way to be the only concubine in the East Palace.
Feng Tianlan chuckled. If Shen Yunya were to fight Luo Shiyun, even if she won in the end, she would still be covered with cuts and bruises. Besides, the Empress Dowager and the Empress were already standing at Luo Shiyun’s side, while Shen Yunya was alone and helpless in the palace.
This was also planned by Xi Jin. He made the two most powerful and respectable women in the imperial harem hate Shen Yunya. How was she going to settle down in the palace in peace?
Dream on!
Yuan Fangfei sneered as she watched Feng Tianlan’s carriage getting further and further away from them. “She wanted you to fight with Luo Shiyun. Let’s tell Luo Shiyun what she just said. We will see who will be fighting instead.”
“It’s no use.” Shen Yunya walked towards her own carriage. “There’s no way of turning things around tonight.”
Who would believe her if she told Luo Shiyun that it was all Feng Tianlan’s plan?
No one would believe her because, to the outsiders, there was no feud between Feng Tianlan and her. Therefore, there was no reason for Feng Tianlan to set her up.
Besides, she couldn’t reveal that Feng Tianlan was Shen Qingdai. It was taboo for everyone.
What happened today could be a bargaining chip to prevent Feng Tianlan from revealing her own identity. She believed that she wouldn’t want Brother Jin to know her scheme.
“Maybe she discovered our scheme and wanted to counter us with one of her own.” Yuan Fangfei was guessing Feng Tianlan’s motive. However, she couldn’t get anything from it. Her scheme had been very secretive. How would it even be discovered?
Shen Yunya leaned against her carriage sluggishly. “At this point, there is no use thinking about it anymore. She is no longer the Shen Qingdai she used to be. Since she started all this, there is no need for us to hold back anymore. We will start with the people around her.”
She was not satisfied with being the Crown Prince’s concubine when she could have become the Crown Princess Consort. This was completely unbearable. All of this was Feng Tianlan and Luo Shiyun’s fault. She would pay them back all the humiliation she had experienced today.
However, Shen Yunya never considered that everything that had happened today wasn’t Feng Tianlan’s scheme. Instead, she was actually set up by Brother Jin, who she had loved for more than ten years and considered to be her life.
Even if she had such a thought, she would never believe that Brother Jin could be such a person.
Back at Si Feng Pavilion, since Si Mobai hadn’t returned, Feng Tianlan went to take a bath. She was in deep thought while soaking in the hot spring. She still couldn’t figure out why Xi Jin was doing this.
After thinking about it for a while, she decided to ask Sister Lin the next day if he had told her the truth. She also planned to make a trip to Jialan Hall to meet the so-called state preceptor.
