After rebirth, the regent refused to divorce

Chapter 157
The air in the room seemed to cool down in an instant.

Only the curvaceous opera voice is left, echoing in the unusually empty rest and solitude at this moment.

Shen Qingyi, who was next door, chatted and drank tea with Zhou Mengfu. The two girls chatted happily, touched cups, watched operas, listened to music, talked about poetry and papers, and got along very well.

After waiting for a while, Shen Qingyi turned his head and looked at a maid outside the door who was about to come in to refill tea.

Seeing this, Shen Qingyi got up and said to Zhou Mengfu: "The tea has gotten a little cold just now, and my stomach hurts. I'll go to the west room first. You can listen to the show here now. I'll be back later."

Zhou Mengfu took a bite of sweet-scented osmanthus crisps and nodded.

Shen Qingyi went out with the maid who had just finished refilling tea.

The two of them walked out from the back gate all the way, bypassing the stream and stone corridor in the backyard on the first floor, and came to a closed house, Shen Qingyi said to the maid: "Get back."

The maid bowed her head and left.

Shen Qingyi entered, but it was just an ordinary female boudoir.

She walked straight to the wooden shelf where the jade wares were placed, closed her eyes and stroked the edge of the wooden shelf with her fingers, and stopped when she touched a groove, then buckled the ring in it, and the wooden shelf was connected to the wall behind like a door Wide open to the sides.

Behind the wall is a stone-like cave.

Shen Qingyi walked in, the room was filled with smoke, occasionally a scalp-numbing "hissing" sound and faint crawling sounds could be heard.

She frowned, and waved away the smell of smoke in disgust. Through the dim oil lamp, she could vaguely see that Yu Jinxiu was lying on the beauty's couch with her fragrant shoulders half exposed, holding a bright pipe in her hand and puffing on the clouds, while in front of her There was a half-open brocade box, which contained the head of Liu Muzhi.

Yu Jinxiu knocked off the soot, blew comfortably, turned her head, smiled charmingly at Shen Qingyi, and said, "You're finally here, sit down."

Shen Qingyi picked up a box from the table at hand, swallowed, and took a cautious step forward.

It was this step, and the crawling sound suddenly sped up a little, Shen Qingyi's hairs stood on end, suppressing the feeling of fear and nausea, holding the contents of the box in his hand, and then took two steps forward Sitting beside Yu Jinxiu.

However, during this sitting, more than a dozen black shadows suddenly came towards Shen Qingyi in the dark inner room. Shen Qingyi naturally stood still, those shadows stopped three feet away from her, suddenly He shrank back as if he was timid, and then shrank obediently, not daring to move anymore.

Yu Jinxiu was amused and giggled.

As soon as she stretched out her hand towards one of the black shadows, the black shadow couldn't wait to wrap its body around her hand. After this, the black shadow stood under the oil lamp, but it was a blue light. long snake!
Even though it was not the first time seeing Shen Qingyi, goose bumps still subconsciously developed all over her body.

Yu Jinxiu stroked the green snake's head, and said with a smile: "These little babies just had an extra meal today, so they might not like the stinky head of this thing, so you might as well take it back to the mansion as a souvenir, it's not a disappointment to Lao Jiu." a lot of pains."

"Not interested, you can keep it for yourself and feed the snake."

Shen Qingyi refused without hesitation.

Yu Jinxiu straightened up, and the green snake circled her shoulders and stood beside her, staring at Shen Qingyi's bulging letter.

Shen Qingyi's hair stood upright from the sight of it, and he didn't have any intention of talking to Yu Jinxiu, so he just slammed the dagger in his hand on the table, glared at the green snake and shouted: "If you dare to look at me again, I will kill you!" This bastard's eyeballs are gouged out!"

These words obviously had some deterrent effect, the green snake really vomited the letter and crawled off the couch silently.

Yu Jinxiu said with a smile: "Master Kanghe is Princess Kanghe. There are not many people in this world who can hold down snakes like me. You are one of them. But fortunately you have this ability, otherwise you would have been killed by Kong Shiyi." These lackeys eat it alive."

Shen Qingyi smiled and said: "It's because of Boss Yu's help behind the scenes. Although we jointly founded Kong Shiyi, if it weren't for Boss Yu's connections, how could we find out that Lao Jiu's family was wiped out by the Liu family?" A secret? If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t have used the stitches to design Lao Jiu to follow Liu Muyan so as to develop feelings for Liu Muyan and deepen my hatred for the Liu family, otherwise this matter would not have gone so smoothly.”

Yu Jinxiu said: "But actually there is one thing I don't understand. This Liu Muzhi has always been suspicious, so why does he trust Lao Jiu?"

Shen Qingyi pursed her lips and smiled, telling the whole story.

The fall of the Liu family is a matter of destiny. The Liu family is arrogant, and it is the idea of ​​the slaves of the three surnames. Among the three juniors, Liu Muying is a common man who is corrupt and perverts the law. The second child, Liu Muzhi, is cunning and insidious. Being used as a murder tool, so that the mentality is distorted.

But maybe she is used to knives, but the people she leads are excellent, and she is a poor person, under Shen Qingyi's secret manipulation, Lao Jiu will naturally have sympathetic admiration for her when he comes into contact with her Heart.

But when the love gradually arose, Shen Qingyi unknowingly fueled the flames by ordering someone to send medicine to Liu's house after learning that Liu Muyan had been ill for a long time, which intensified Lao Jiu's hatred for Liu Muzhi, and thus The more grateful she is to Shen Qingyi, the deeper her feelings towards Liu Muyan will be.

It is because of this deep-rooted feeling that Liu Muzhi, a cold-hearted person who is best at making use of his feelings, thinks that the old nine will love his house because of Liu Muyan, and he hates Shen Qingyi who caused Liu Muyan's death. Thereby intending to put her to death.

However, he never expected that since Lao Jiu developed feelings for Liu Muyan, the gears of this fate have already started to turn. In order not to be discovered by Liu Muzhi, any actions in it are the actions of "Shen Qingyi, the third daughter of the Shen family". It was not carried out by "the real master behind Kong Shiyi", so it was not until Liu Muzhi was beheaded that he never found out what the truth was.

After hearing this, even Yu Jinxiu couldn't help being a little surprised, and said: "I heard from the girl in the building that you were chased and killed by Liu Muyan, but the old nine didn't stop him at all, thinking that the old nine betrayed us, and almost threw him away. I went out to feed the snakes, so it was because of this... It’s because I’m a little smaller, and I really can’t compare to His Royal Highness the princess.”

The two women looked at each other and smiled.

Shen Qingyi looked at the brocade box and said: "Since the snake has been fed, don't leave this thing here, and I should meet Lao Jiu Haosheng. Anyway, Liu's family collapsed, and he contributed a lot. Liu Muyan If you have knowledge under the spring, you should rest in peace."

Yu Jinxiu said: "He knew you would definitely go to see him, so he waited in the East Wing early in the morning, so just go there."

Shen Qingyi nodded, slapped her hands, and then a maid stepped forward to pick up the brocade box, and followed Shen Qingyi out of the secret room to the east wing.
