"Mother Empress, this is my family's business. There's no need for you to worry about it." Shen Wanqing frowned when she heard the Empress's words. She held Yan Fan's hand and blocked the Empress's view.
"You!" The Empress was furious. "You're blinded by lust! How can a man make you lose your judgment? How can you behave like an empress if you compromise like this? "
Shen Wanqing frowned. She looked at the Empress calmly and said, "I don't think I'm compromising. Yan Fan is the most important person in my heart. I like him too much, so I can't bear to see him suffer any grievances. Since he's under my protection, I'll do my best to protect him. The so-called compromise is just a way for me to pamper him. "
Yan Fan, who was protected by Shen Wanqing, paused slightly. He looked at the girl whose height was no higher than his chest. His eyes were filled with a deep and throbbing.
The Empress was so angry that she left in a huff. Everyone in the Third Princess' residence lowered their heads and didn't dare to breathe.
Yan Fan hooked her earlobe with his fingertips and sighed. "Forget it. You can go out with the Empress."
Shen Wanqing turned around and looked at him in confusion. "Didn't you forbid me from going out earlier?"
"Alright, hurry up and go. The so-called promise should be very important to you. When the Empress mentioned the word 'promise', the girl's expression changed obviously.
Shen Wanqing pursed her lips. Before she could shake her head and refuse, she was pushed out by Yan Fan.
…
…
The Empress didn't go far. Shen Wanqing quickly caught up with her.
When she saw Shen Wanqing beside her, the Empress's face was still cold. Shen Wanqing didn't feel that what she said just now was wrong. However, she still had to apologize.
"I offended Mother Empress just now, please forgive me, Mother Empress."
The Empress's eyebrows moved slightly. She was about to reply when Shen Wan Qing, who was beside her, said, "Yan Fan is just a monk in the Sanyin Temple. Although his personality is a bit naughty sometimes, he is the person I like. Today, he caused a lot of inconvenience to you. I apologize on his behalf. But there's one thing I don't understand. Why did you make trouble for Yan Fan in the residence today? "
"You really don't know why I made trouble for him?" The Empress turned to look at Shen Wanqing. She was a bit angry.
Shen Wanqing frowned slightly. Of course she didn't know. If she knew, why would she ask you?
"If you think that Yan doesn't have a family background, I don't think it's troublesome. I'm alone and have lived on the battlefield for many years. It's not certain when I'll die on the battlefield. Therefore, rather than choosing a marriage that's full of benefits, it's better to choose a person I like. "Shen Wanqing thought about it and spoke out her thoughts.
Hearing Shen Wanqing's words, the Empress felt both angry and amused. She suppressed the bitter smile in her heart and flicked her sleeves. "That's enough. I don't want to continue this topic with you. You came out because you want to know about the agreement you made with me, right? "
Shen Wanqing pursed her lips and nodded. "Yes."
"Is the agreement important to you?" The Empress looked at Shen Wanqing calmly. Her sharp black eyes contained emotions that Shen Wanqing couldn't understand.
Shen Wanqing nodded.
The Empress looked at her. After a while, she suddenly laughed at herself.
Then, the Empress said softly, "I seem to … smell the fragrance of osmanthus cake …"
