Shen Yan froze and couldn't drink anymore.

Shen Ning just looked at her expressionlessly, with an indifferent look in his eyes, and a hint of sarcasm.

"Sister..." Shen Yan smiled dryly and tried to push the bowl away, "I'm really full. I specially asked the kitchen to make this soup for you, sis..."

"Eat." Shen Ning's voice was cold and hard, not allowing for refutation.

Shen Yan's face turned pale, and she could no longer pretend, and her eyes suddenly turned red: "Sister, what on earth do you want to do? I just feel sorry for the injustice you suffered yesterday, and you haven't been able to have a good rest or eat well from last night to today, so I gave this special order They made your favorite dish, what did I do wrong? Why do you have to do this-"

Before she finished speaking, a hand suddenly clasped the back of her neck and forced her down in front of the table, "Do you want to eat?"

Shen Yan shook her head violently and was so frightened that she almost cried: "Let...let me go!"

Shen Ning grabbed her chin tightly with one hand and forced her to open her mouth. She picked up the bowl with the other hand and poured the soup into her mouth.

"Ah... cough cough cough..." Shen Yan tried to escape frantically, half of the tonic soup spurted out, and the other half went down her throat and was swallowed by her, "cough cough..."

After half the bowl of soup was finished, Shen Ning took another half of the bowl in front of her and drank it all, then coldly let her go and threw the bowl on the table.

Shen Yan's face turned pale, and she ran out like a gust of wind. She dug her throat with her fingers as she ran, trying to spit out all the soup she just drank.

Shen Ning stared at her fleeing back without saying a word, sat back at the table, and started eating slowly.

The soup cup was pushed aside, and the crystal white rice was brought to her. Shen Ning ate it gracefully with chopsticks.

When Shen Shi'an brought people in, Shen Ning finished his bowl of rice and tasted a few bites of each of the several dishes on the table, both meat and vegetables.

"Shen Ning." Shen Shi'an looked at her gloomily, "What did you do to Yan'er?"

Shen Ning turned to look at the trembling maid standing aside, her voice cold as ice: "Repeat what happened just now, and I will spare your life."

The maid plopped down and knelt on the ground: "Second Miss...Second Miss brought lunch and tonic soup to the eldest lady. The eldest lady gave the tonic soup to the second lady..."

Shen Shi'an's expression froze, and there was an incredible color in his eyes, as if he suspected that Shen Ning was lying to him: "That's it?"

The maid nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, that's it."

"No matter what, she is your sister." Shen Shi'an looked at Shen Ning with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes, "Even if you become the regent princess, the Shen family is still your natal family. If you want to establish yourself in the regent's palace in the future, Family help is indispensable.”

Shen Ning wiped the corners of her mouth and said indifferently: "Take care of it."

The maid stood up and began to timidly clear the dishes.

Seeing her attitude, Shen Shi'an's anger almost broke through his internal organs and surged straight to the top of his head. He wanted to slap her immediately, but thinking of the regent's words just now and Shen Ning's ruthlessness when she broke Qin Yanshu's wrist, he did not dare to act. .

He snorted coldly, turned around and walked away.

Shen Ning paid no attention to his comings and goings like wind. She didn't even have the desire to get angry or refute. She just regarded him as a cat or a dog, or a vase in the corner or a potted plant in the yard.

In short, he won't be her relative, and it won't affect her emotions.

In the evening, the regent ordered someone to deliver a wedding dress. Two female officials and four maids came grandly holding the wedding dress and phoenix crown.

The red wedding dress is luxurious and noble, with a nine-tailed phoenix embroidered with gold thread on the long skirt. The red and blue intertwined gems emit a dazzling light and shine under the lights.

The important thing is that the wedding dress fits Shen Ning perfectly, as if it was tailor-made for her.

The phoenix crown made of pure gold is heavy on the head, noble and bright, and unattainable.

Bracelets, earrings, necklaces, seven-tailed phoenix hairpins, walking sticks, hairpins... A whole set of priceless jewelry was neatly placed in the dowry, making people greedy and jealous.

Shen Ning changed into her wedding dress and stood in front of the bronze mirror, looking at the stunning face in the mirror. Her long and slender figure seemed to be specially made for this wedding dress.

In the memory, it seems that there was a woman who once wore a phoenix crown and a rosy hat. She was luxurious and bright, with a pretty face and a slight blush. She happily handed her hand to the person on the top of her heart, but what she got in exchange was the poisoned wine on the wedding night, humiliation and the following. Endless abuse.

"Princess." The female officer waiting next to her said respectfully, "Don't you like this wedding dress?"

The princess seemed very indifferent, with no joy on her face, nor the joy and shyness of a woman to be married.

I don’t know if I am dissatisfied with this marriage.

"No." Shen Ning regained consciousness, opened her arms, and two female officers took off her wedding dress, "I like it very much."

Although there was no sign of liking her face when she said this, not even a smile, the two female officials still breathed a sigh of relief: "The regent said that if you don't like it, you can order someone to rush the work again and embroider it again." A set of styles that you like.”

Shen Ning seemed curious: "Is it enough time in two days?"

"There's enough time." The female officer nodded, "Everyone works together, two days is enough."

Shen Ning hummed: "This will do."

She didn't ask how many people "everyone" meant, nor was she interested in asking.

It's just a wedding dress. No matter how luxurious it is, it can only be worn for one day. If the person is not good enough, what if the wedding dress is priceless?

The two female officials looked at each other quietly, feeling that the Princess Regent seemed different from a normal woman.

Although they also heard about what happened to her in the palace, when a normal woman encounters this kind of thing, she would either feel sad and desperate, or she would be shameless.

After being attracted by the regent, he was either overjoyed or trembling with fear.

But Shen Ning didn't react at all, as if everything had nothing to do with her.

With a kind of indifference.

They have been working in the palace for many years. They can even guess what the concubines in the late emperor's harem are thinking and what their words and actions mean.

Only the eldest daughter of the Shen family, who has not yet left the palace, is as cold as a piece of ice, making people unable to see warmth or emotional fluctuations.

It was as if nothing in the world could make her care.

However, the person the Regent liked always had a reason for him to like him. They did not dare to say anything, folded the wedding clothes and put them on the wooden tray, and put away the phoenix crown.

"In the next two days, the two servants will stay here to serve the princess and listen to her orders." The female officer began to introduce herself, "My name is Lanzhi, and her name is Lanhua. If the princess needs anything, just ask the servants."

Shen Ning turned around and went back to bed and lay down: "I want to catch up on my sleep in the afternoon, no one is allowed in."

"yes."

Lanzhi and Lanhua turned around and walked out, one on the left and the other on the right guarding the door.

Shen Ning opened her eyes and lay on the bed, and couldn't help but think that the regent of the Yong Kingdom was extremely powerful and handsome, and he was the most powerful person in the Yong Kingdom at the moment.

If he got married, he would have all the beauties in the world to choose from, so why would he choose her, the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Guo whose reputation had been ruined?
