Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 184 Soft Knife

Shen Wanyu raised the corners of her mouth and looked at Shen Wanqing who was showing off to her. Although this jadeite bracelet is of good quality, it is very valuable.She also saw it at the Queen Mother's place, and she happened to ask about this jade bracelet at that time.

I remembered the undisguised disgust on the Empress Dowager's face when she mentioned the bracelet.I am afraid that the origin of this bracelet must make the Queen Mother unhappy, and now Shen Wanqing has been rewarded by the emperor.What that meant, she naturally understood in her heart.He seems to like her, but those who really know the origin of this bracelet probably already understand what the Queen Mother means.e.g. prince
The prince seemed gentle and polite, so how could he be the heir to the emperor.No matter how gentle his eyes are, the wisdom and ambition contained in them cannot be concealed.

He is like a smiling tiger, who always smiles at everyone.But behind this smiling face, there are calculations and conspiracies hidden.In the case of you do not know, shade you in the invisible.This is also the reason why Shen Wanyu doesn't like to get too close to the prince, she would rather fight the cunning fox than offend the smiling tiger.

"Hehe, since it is a gift from the empress dowager, you should cherish it, second sister, and don't take it off when you wear it on your wrist. The empress dowager seldom gives her own things to others. This emerald bracelet belongs to the empress dowager." It's in your jewelry box. From now on, if the Empress Dowager sees you carrying the things she rewarded you every day, she will be very happy."

Shen Wanyu withdrew her thoughts, raised her head and looked at Shen Wanqing with a smile.Long and slender fingers caressed his chin, and a hint of calculation flashed in his clear eyes.

Shen Wanqing was slightly taken aback, she looked at the sincere smile on the corner of Shen Wanyu's mouth.Squinting her eyes, the relationship between the two has been tacitly understood by each other, her attitude today is so surprising to her that it is not the same as usual.Her heart instantly raised a little vigilance, and she took her hand back.His fingers caressed the jade bracelet on his wrist.He lowered his eyes slightly, hiding the vigilance in his eyes.

"Elder Sister knows the Empress Dowager best. I really want to thank Eldest Sister for reminding me today."

Suddenly there was a sense of discomfort, and her body shook.Fenghua and Xueyue standing behind her immediately reached out to support her, preventing her from falling.There was a look of pain on his slightly pale face, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Shen Wanyu glanced at Shen Wanqing, and a sneer quietly crossed the corner of her mouth.She hurriedly said: "Second sister, it looks like you don't look very well. Is there something uncomfortable?"

Shen Wanqing didn't want to show her discomfort in front of her, she twitched the corners of her mouth: "Maybe it's because yesterday's heat stroke hasn't recovered, and I just felt a little unwell just now."

"Since the second sister is not feeling well, today my sister will leave first." Shen Wanyu showed a gentle smile on her face, her eyes suddenly turned sharp and swept towards Fenghua and Xueyue.

"You two, take care of your young lady carefully. Her status today is not as good as before. If something happens, be careful of your lives."

The cold voice was like ice and snow in the cold winter, so Fenghua and Xueyue blurted out without any hesitation: "It's the eldest lady. This slave will definitely take good care of the second lady."

Shen Wanyu nodded in satisfaction, her cold expression softened a lot.Then he waved his hand and said in a gentle voice: "Okay, it's good for you to be clear in your own mind. Hurry up and help your second lady go back to the room to rest, and then ask the doctor to come and show her."

"Yes, Miss."

Fenghua and Xueyue lowered their heads, supported Shen Wanqing and answered in a low voice.

Shen Wanyu hooked the corners of her mouth, revealing a lazy and confident smile: "Qiuzhu, let's go back,"

After speaking, she turned around slowly, and left Shen Wanqing's yard with Qiu Zhu who was a little stunned behind her.

Shen Wanqing clenched the handkerchief tightly, her eyes were full of anger and hatred.What a Shen Wanyu, it seems that she came to congratulate her on becoming a prince and side concubine.But the action just now, in front of her in her yard, ordered her big maid.That posture is more like a master than her real master, isn't this slapping her in the face in front of all the servants?
She is telling everyone that even though her identity is different from before.But she, Shen Wanyu, is the real master of the Hou Mansion, and everyone still has to listen to her.

"Remember all the useless things. Your master is me, not her, Shen Wanyu."

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, she forcefully threw away the hands of Fenghua and Xueyue who were supporting her.Glaring at the two of them with eyes full of haze, he dropped those words in a cold voice and walked back into the room.

Fenghua and Xueyue turned pale, looking at the master who threw his sleeves and left.The two glanced at each other, and finally followed in silence.

The little maid and Xiao Si in the yard didn't dare to talk too much, they immediately lowered their heads and continued with their work.The sound of porcelain shattering came from the room, and everyone shuddered and quickened their movements.

Qiuzhu followed Shen Wanyu back, and when she passed the back garden, she tilted her head to look at the smiling Shen Wanyu.

"Miss, the second lady's identity is different now. If you treat her like this, aren't you afraid that she will treat you?"

Qiu Zhu was so worried that Shen Wanqing dared to plot against the young lady secretly when she was just a concubine.Now that her status is different, she still doesn't know how to deal with her young lady.

"Qiuzhu, since I can promote her to the position of the prince's side concubine, I can also pull her down. I will give her a chance and see how she will use it."

Shen Wanyu raised the corners of her mouth, and her brows were shining with dazzling elegance.She raised her chin slightly, letting the wind blow her hair around her ears.Water can carry a boat and capsize it, since she has the ability to lift Shen Wanqing to that position, she also has a way to make her fall from that position.

It's just that she is not willing yet, she wants to let her adapt to the life of the stars.Then drag her down from that position, only then will she realize what real pain is.

Qiuzhu nodded half-understanding, she knew that Shen Wanqing could be chosen as the side concubine.One is because of Beining Hou Mansion, and the other is because of her performance this time.Even a person like her who doesn't know how to dance was amazed when she saw Shen Wanqing's performance.

The concubine of the Dakun royal family needs to have amazing talents in addition to her beautiful appearance.In today's harem, not to mention the concubines.Any talented person who agrees will have outstanding looks and extraordinary talents.

Shen Wanyu walked to the lake and looked at the calm lake.The sun shines on the lake, reflecting the dazzling light, and the waves are sparkling.The weeping willows by the lake danced with the wind, and she closed her eyes slightly to enjoy the warmth of the sun on her body.

She was dressed in white and plain skirt, without any decorations on her whole body, and her jet-black hair was only tied up with a silver hairpin, revealing a sense of tranquility in the elegance.Plain face with clear water, no powder applied, can make the skin delicate and smooth, with a hint of luster.His eyebrows are like a crescent moon, his cheeks are like peach blossoms in March, and his face is white, like a fairy in the sky.

Shen Wanyu seldom wears plain white clothes without any patterns, such a simple dress makes her a bit less gorgeous.On the contrary, a completely different temperament was born, quiet and distant.

Even Qiuzhu, who was used to seeing this gorgeous face, was a little surprised, it was the first time she saw such a beautiful young lady.Compared to Shen Wanqing who was like a fairy at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, the eldest lady at this time is more like a cold fairy who descended from the sky.

She was in a daze for a moment, and she didn't even notice that someone was walking towards her.Shen Wanyu, who had her eyes slightly closed, evoked a smile, that familiar smell was unique to him.

Chu Mohan was ordered by the emperor to look for Beininghou early in the morning, and when he came out from Beininghou, he saw her coming out of Shen Wanqing's yard.He followed her quietly along the way, and naturally overheard the conversation between her and Qiu Zhu.She hooked the corners of her mouth, and it turned out that Shen Wanqing's becoming the prince's side concubine in the Hundred Flowers Banquet had something to do with her.

He walked to her side with steady steps, but he didn't call her.Just standing beside her quietly, watching the calm lake with her.

Qiuzhu came back to her senses, and turned to look at the person who was walking.Seeing Chu Mohan, she was slightly taken aback.Afterwards, he retreated very consciously and quietly, leaving space for the two of them.

"How did you come here today?"

Shen Wanyu spoke softly, but her eyes were fixed on the calm lake.She stretched out her hand to pin the hair on her cheek behind her ear, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was stretched and comfortable.

"The emperor asked me to come to Lord Hou to deal with some matters, so I came here."

Chu Mohan glanced at Shen Wanyu, his eyes flickered slightly.Today she is different from the past, as cold and peaceful as a fairy.He looked down at his white robe today, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Xiao Yu'er, do you think our outfits today look like a couple?"

Shen Wanyu was slightly taken aback when she heard Chu Mohan's conversation.Then he turned his head and glanced at Chu Mohan who was dressed in white, and then lowered his head to look at his current attire.The corner of her mouth twitched, and she took out a piece of clothing from the cabinet in the morning.Unexpectedly, it turned out to be plain white clothes. Her skirts are rarely white, and her facial features tend to be gorgeous.Therefore, she also likes to wear some brightly colored dresses.

Now that she heard Chu Mohan's words, she looked at their clothes.Eyebrows twitched, it really looked like a couple's outfit.She turned her head slightly and looked at Chu Mohan who had a narrow smile on his face.Suddenly, his face became hot, and a blush appeared on his cheeks.

Couple outfit?A trace of sweetness suddenly appeared in her heart, and the white dress seemed to look good.

"Oh, what a pair of talented men and women."

A slightly teasing, evil voice came from not far away, and a slender fiery red figure slowly walked over.
