Lianxin hesitated. "Your Highness, is this really appropriate? If the Empress finds out, she might think you are intentionally embarrassing her."
"What are you afraid of?" Shen Yunxi frowned displeasedly. "Right now, her focus is entirely on Shen Yinning. While they're at each other's throats, I, as the fisherman, will seize the chance to win over the hearts of the harem. This is clearly a smart move. Even if my brother finds out, he'll praise my intelligence and wisdom. Besides, doesn't she pride herself on being virtuous? Even if she knows I'm bestowing grand gifts to the harem, she won't say a word."
Lianxin dared not say more and bowed her head obediently in agreement.
When Shen Xinya learned that Shen Yunxi had prepared extravagant Mid-Autumn gifts to reward the harem, she hurried over to stop her. However, by then, Lian Ye and the young palace maids had already taken the gifts to deliver to the concubines' residences.
