Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 246 The second prince's scheme
Spring is a rainy season. The sun was still shining in the morning and it began to rain continuously in the afternoon.

Shen Wanyu sat leaning on a chair in front of the window, leaning on her chin with one hand.Looking at the continuous drizzle outside the window, the water droplets on the eaves fell to the ground.

"Miss, what you want."

Qiuzhu's face turned slightly pale, and he handed a round black porcelain bottle to Shen Wanyu.Shen Wanyu withdrew her gaze, turned her head to look at Qiu Zhu, whose face was pale.He reached out to take the bottle in her hand, and then hooked the corner of his mouth.

"Thanks a lot."

"It's not hard, it's just that miss, what do you want these things for?"

With fear in his eyes, Qiuzhu glanced at the black bottle in Shen Wanyu's hand.Thinking of the contents inside, my stomach immediately churned again.

"Of course I'm useful, you go down first."

Qiuzhu swallowed and dragged her saliva, and retreated as if she had been pardoned.Shen Wanyu was the only one left in the room, staring at the black bottle in a daze.

His slender fingers rubbed the edge of the bottle cap, hesitation flashed in his eyes.Whether she should try it or not, it was her first time doing it and she didn't know if it would be successful.

After hesitating for a moment, her eyes flickered and she finally opened the cap of the black bottle.Looking at the countless white bugs wriggling inside, she pursed her lips.

A layer of goosebumps appeared on her body instantly, but luckily she didn't have trypophobia.Otherwise, seeing that pile of wriggling white bugs, you will definitely faint from fright.

Alas, the poor little bugs will use you to try their hand.He threw the prepared things into the black bottle one by one, and finally picked up the dagger on the table, closing his eyes and heart.A wound was drawn on his white finger, and bright red blood flowed out from the wound.Following her fingers, it dropped into the black bottle.

The originally white worm was smudged red by her bright red blood, plus the two things placed in front.After a while, the bugs that had turned red gradually turned black.As if poisoned deeply, the slowly wriggling body began to twist and struggle.

Shen Wanyu shook her body, and quickly put the lid back on.Then he held onto the black bottle with something and moved it to a remote corner.

It is said in the book that after these are done, as long as it is sealed for seven days, then what she wants will be successfully refined.I hope this little thing can bring me a pleasant surprise, otherwise she looked down at the wound on her finger and curled her lips.

Finding gauze, she quickly wrapped her fingers.Then he stood up from the chair, walked out of the room, and saw Chunlan Qiuzhu and the others sitting on the chairs in the outer room chatting.

"Nothing to do, how about we play a game?"

Hearing the sudden voice, Qiuzhu and the others immediately stopped chatting.Turning her head to look at Shen Wanyu who was standing at the door of the inner room, she spoke slightly curiously.

"Miss, what game is it?"

Shen Wanyu smiled mysteriously, walked to the couch in the outer room and sat down.Taking the water glass that Qiu Zhu handed over, he took a leisurely sip.

"Qiuzhu, find some hard paper and scissors. Then prepare me two kinds of dyes, black and red, and I will make something fun."

Qiuzhu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and ran out.After a while, Qiu Zhu ran back with a bunch of things in his hands.It happened to be what Shen Wanyu needed, she took the things and lay down on the case on the couch and began to draw.

Qiuzhu and the others gathered around curiously, watching his young lady draw strange things on the white cardboard.

"Miss, what are you drawing?"

While drawing, Shen Wanyu said, "You will know in a while."

An hour later, Qiuzhu and the others looked at the pile of cards on the table in dumbfounded.What is this thing that makes my lady so excited.

It has been almost a year since time travel, and she has never had any entertainment programs.And this Shen's poker was born for the first time in Dakun.

"This thing is called poker, and it's something similar to the cards you play."

As she spoke, she reached out to pick up the cards on the table, and pulled out the cards inside: "Here are hearts, diamonds, spades, clubs, and the four are the smallest. These two are a big king and a small king, The king is the biggest, and the little king is next."

Shen Wanyu eloquently told Qiu Zhu and the others the rules of playing poker, and these maids were also smart.After telling both sides, a few people played a few more hands and immediately knew how to play.

Shen Wanyu, Qiu Shui and Yu Shui sat around the table and started their poker journey.

Shang Rui came back from the outside to look for Shen Wanyu, and before she stepped into the house, she heard very familiar words from inside.

"Two three, do you want it?" Excited voice.

"No!" a disappointed voice.

"I do not have either!"

"Haha, two kings. Hey, you sure don't have one. I only have the last card left, a six. Oh yeah, I won."

Shen Wanyu smiled and threw the cards in her hand on the table, she is really lucky today.After so many games, she almost always wins.

"Miss, you are too powerful. We can't play with you"

Chunlan's small face crossed, and she looked at Shen Wanyu pitifully.This thing looks simple, but it is still a bit difficult to play.

Shen Wanyu raised the corners of her mouth and smiled triumphantly.Hmph, although I don't want to say how good she is at poker.But it's more than enough to deal with these little maids.

"Hey, who is your lady? How could it be possible for you to win."

Seeing her young lady's unbearable smile, the corners of their mouths twitched and they decided to ignore her.

"Hey, let me see what you're doing?"

The clear and clear voice suddenly came from the door, making several people startled.Then Shen Wanyu came back to her senses and looked at the door of the room.Just in time to see Shang Rui folded his arms around his chest, looking at him with a half-smile.

"Xiao Ruirui, we are playing poker. Would you like to play a few games together? These girls are too stupid. I won't feel any sense of accomplishment when I beat them."

Hearing Shen Wanyu's words, the corners of Qiuzhu's mouths twitched.Shang Rui raised one eyebrow and walked towards them.

"Okay, but let's play splitting."

Hearing Shang Rui's words, Shen Wanyu glanced at everyone.Shang Rui, Qiuzhu, Yushui, Chunlan, Rumeng and herself are exactly six people.

"Okay, then we'll play splitting up." Glancing at Qiuzhu and the others who were looking at her in a daze, she smiled slightly and said, "In this way, whoever catches the four waters of hearts will have the right to be an important person, and the one who is wanted by her The two are on her team. For example, I have four of hearts, and I want three of spades and six of diamonds. Then the person with these two cards is on my team, but what about these two cards? Before the cards come down, it is not allowed to say who is with whom."

Although Qiuzhu and the others were still a little confused, it still sounded interesting.At least it was more fun than just now. After talking, they got together again to continue their poker career.

A few people played poker like this all afternoon, until Shen Wanyu's stomach started to protest.The few people reluctantly put down the poker in their hands, and Qiuzhu and the others went to prepare dinner.

Shang Rui leaned on the soft pillow and glanced at Shen Wanyu who was drinking water: "Why do you suddenly want to make a poker game?"

Didn't he want to build power? Why did he suddenly become idle again?

Shen Wanyu lazily put down the cup, and glanced at the continuous drizzle that still didn't stop outside.

"Don't you think it's not good to play poker in such a rainy day? Why did you come back so early today, and you came directly to me as soon as you came back? Is there something wrong?"

Shang Rui picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip: "Seduce me to play poker, I almost forgot about the business. It's like this, I went to Aunt Lan's place today with nothing to do. Originally, she wanted to send The news is for you, and now it’s time for me to bring you the news.”

Shen Wanyu put down the cup in her hand, and looked at Shang Rui with some surprise.It was rare for this girl to be diligent, and she even ran to Aunt Lan's place.

"what's up?"

"The second prince, Chu Tianyou, had a secret meeting with the leader of Mo Hanjiao in Tingyu Tower yesterday, and he stayed there for an hour." Shang Rui put down her glass, she didn't care much about these things and just brought the words to her.

"Oh? Mo Han teaches?"

Shen Wanyu raised her eyebrows and spoke in surprise.

As far as she knew, this Mohanjiao was a notorious sect in Jianghu.Doing all kinds of evil, burning, killing, and plundering are comparable to robbers in the mountains.The only difference is that the people in Mo Hanjiao are far better than the robbers.

They also take on missions, like assassinations or something.Although Mo Han's religion is not big, many sects are unwilling to confront them.This person is afraid of meeting such shameless opponents, because they will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals.

"What do you think the second prince, Chu Tianyu, will do if he finds the leader of Mo Han's sect?"

Shen Wanyu rubbed her smooth chin with her slender fingers, and narrowed her eyes slightly.His eyes are full of deep thought, this Chu Tianyu is not a fuel-efficient lamp either.

"Didn't you say that you heard their conversation in Yulou last time? Did you say that he wanted to ambush your heir when he came back? Didn't you say he was looking for the leader of the Mohan religion and let him go Ambush your family's heir?"

Hearing Shang Rui's casual words, Shen Wanyu's face turned cold.There was a sneer at the corner of her mouth, how could she almost forget about it.

Chu Tianyu has always wanted to get rid of the evildoers, and he probably went to the leader of the Mohan religion for this reason.It's just that she doesn't understand that there hasn't been any news from the border gate during this period of time.

She doesn't even know when the evildoer will come back, how could he know?

Just when she was full of doubts, the sound of small footsteps came from the door.Immediately afterwards, Rumeng came in with a pleasant voice.
