527 Crown Prince?!
Translator: Lordbluefire
Suddenly, there was silence.
Thank you readers!
Chu Cichen’s movement paused slightly, and he turned around with a surprised expression to look at his father-in-law.
Everyone was bewildered and shocked, looking at the person who had just spoken.
Jing Zhen remained sitting there with his back against the Queen. But when he spoke, the Queen’s body suddenly stiffened. She was in disbelief as she turned her head to look at him!
She narrowed her eyes, looking at that familiar figure. For a moment, she couldn’t believe her eyes. Was it that scoundrel? He had been gone for more than 20 years, and to be honest, even the Queen did not know what he looked like now.
The Queen trembled as she stood up with the help of the butler. She looked at Jing Zhen’s back. With a commanding tone in her voice, she said, “You, turn around!”
As soon as she spoke, Shen Qianhui became anxious.
She then rushed to Jing Zhen’s front and stood between him and the Queen, saying, “Your Majesty, Jingjing’s father is worried about her. He didn’t mean to call you an old witch...”
As Shen Qianhui spoke, Shen Yuansong came back to his senses. When he realized what Jing Zhen had just said, his brows furrowed tightly.
The title of “old witch” had been spread by Bai Wei. According to Bai Wei, it was a nickname given to the Queen by a certain big shot, so they all called her that privately.
After all, it was too fitting. During her reign, the Queen had killed all the heirs to the throne except her own son, which made her son the only crown prince of the royal family even though he had been away from home for so many years.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs far as Shen Yuansong knew, their king had actually died two years ago, but the Queen kept it a secret, waiting for her son to return and inherit the throne.
Now, everything in Country A was under the Queen’s control.
However, no one dared to call her “old witch” to her face! When Shen Yuansong saw that the Queen’s expression had changed and that her emotions had been stirred up, he became even more agitated.
This person, who had always been emotionless, must be furious now, right?
Thinking this, he quickly stood in front of Shen Qianhui and said, “Your Majesty, my insignificant son-in-law is just a small-time actor who has never seen such a big scene. He must have been frightened and didn’t mean it...”
“Step aside.” the Queen was livid.
Shen Yuansong wanted to step aside, but seeing that his daughter Shen Qianhui was standing firm protectively in front of Jing Zhen, Shen Yuansong didn’t dare to move his feet.
He took a deep breath and said, “Your Majesty, our focus today is not on this. Why bother with a small-time celebrity like him? Can I ask him to apologize to you?”
At this moment, the Xu family and the Rong family looked at each other again. If Shen Ruojing agreed to marry into the royal family, the position of the Shen family would surely continue to be at the top.
They had used their daughters to pressure Shen Ruojing earlier, which had caused displeasure from the old man. Therefore, they didn’t want to offend the Shen family now.
The two of them then stood up and walked to Jing Zhen’s side.
Leader Xu directly said to the Queen, “How can an apology be enough? I think he should kowtow and apologize!”
Although that was what they said, they were actually trying to protect Jing Zhen. Otherwise, with what he had just said, even if the Queen killed Jing Zhen, no one else could say anything!
Leader Xu was really trying to help Jing Zhen.
Meanwhile, Leader Rong was already pulling Jing Zhen’s clothes and whispered, “Stand up and apologize to the Queen! Why are you just sitting there stupidly? Are you scared?”
Jing Zhen’s appearance of avoiding the Queen earlier had made most of the people present feel embarrassed. They even thought that he was scared now.
Shen Yuansong also scolded him, “Stand up and apologize to the Queen!”
Only Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen looked at each other, then they both turned their heads and looked at Jing Zhen together.
Chu Cichen raised his eyebrows but didn’t say anything.
Shen Ruojing clenched her fist, not understanding why her father was acting this way. First, he refused to meet the Queen, and now he was provoking her face-to-face...
Others might think that the Queen was angry and furious, but Shen Ruojing felt that there was a hint of surprise in the Queen’s expression at this moment.
Could it be... Was her father really someone special to the Queen?
She coughed and decided to protect her father. After all, her mother was pregnant now, and she couldn’t let her know about this, or else she would be very angry.
She took a few steps toward Jing Zhen, standing between him and the Queen, and said to the Queen, “Your Majesty, please forgive my father’s rudeness, but he’s just doing this for his daughter. Now that I have promised you, the relationship between the Shen family and the royal family will return to normal. I don’t think you would mind this, right?”
The Queen.
She just wanted to confirm if it was really that scoundrel who had spoken earlier, but why was it so difficult7!
The Queen became impatient and shouted, “Butler, make them all step aside!”
The royal guards stepped forward, holding electric batons, and they seemed to be quite skilled in combat.
At this moment, the third martial uncle of Valor Gate, along with his people, rushed in and guarded Shen Ruojing and the others. “This is the Shen family, you can’t act recklessly here!”
Both sides were immediately in a tense situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt the second table, Xu Hao and several others immediately looked at Jing Zhen, cursing angrily.
‘Why don’t you apologize quickly!”
‘What are you doing? That’s the Queen, how can you insult her so casually?!”
‘Stand up quickly! Do you want the Shen family and the Queen to fight because of you?
However, Shen Qianhui only held Jing Zhen’s arm and stood in front of him with her frail body. “Husband, don’t be afraid, I’m here.”
Shen Yuansong was furious at his daughter’s behavior. Inwardly, he was screaming, “Is this small-time celebrity worth all of this?!”
At this moment, Old Master Bai walked over with a smile. ‘Old Shen, what are you doing? It’s a misunderstanding, all just a misunderstanding! The Queen just wanted to see Mr. Jing...”
He pushed aside the Valor Gate people and smiled at the Queen’s guards. “Today is Miss Shen Ruojing’s birthday banquet, a happy occasion, let’s not mess it up. Mr. Jing, please explain the situation.’
Jing Zhen lowered his gaze.
He didn’t look at the Queen immediately but looked at Shen Qianhui first. He held her hand that was holding his arm.
After revealing his identity, the only person he owed something to was Shen Qianhui.
But thirteen years ago, his daughter was captured and locked up in a cellar for half a year for that thing...
Now, he couldn’t just keep pushing everything to his daughter.
Jing Zhen thought of this and slowly stood up, looking at the Queen.
His peach blossom eyes which usually carried a smile were now icy cold..
‘Mother, there is no need to trouble you for my daughter’s marriage!’
