Capítulo 1216: Bitter melons could only come from the vines of their kind.

Everyone went silent at the words of Chen Rui. Whispers rose in the air as most of them turned to seek each other's opinions.  While Shen Donghai and Shen Bingling sat nonchalantly there, not surprised by the words of the queen, others felt it still hard to believe. 

Chen Rui's lips curled up as her expressions got obviously sharp. Looking at each of the people who stood up with their questions, she said again, "You all look surprised. But I remember sending a word of this around our family. Have you all not heard our word?" Her tone seemed that of surprise. But all of them knew that that figure of surprise was just to pull them into the guilt. 

The people could no longer hold it. So, they sat back in their seats before turning to each other to discuss. Her Highness's words were too ambiguous and it seemed hard to find clarity in them. But even if they were confused, they didn't dare to speak up again. Especially after hearing the sharp tone of the lady.
