"This …" Ren Wan Yun was somewhat hesitant. If she were to live together with Shen Miao and something happened to Shen Miao, it would be difficult for her to escape. Not waiting for her to think of a better idea, Shen Miao continued, "If Shen Shen is not willing, Eldest Sister and Second Older Sister can squeeze in with me."
Shen Yue's eyes flashed but did not speak. Even though Shen Qing did not know what arrangements her Mother had, she could vaguely guess that this trip was targeted at Shen Miao. In addition, she was so disgusted with Shen Miao that she did not even want to pretend to be friendly so she naturally said coldly, "I am used to living alone."
"So …" Shen Miao slightly muttered to herself.
"Then I will go to the Northern pavilion with Fifth Lady." Shen Miao had not finished speaking when Ren Wan Yun took the initiative to speak. She was afraid that Shen Miao would have any changes at this time and thought that it would be alright if they were to live together further away so that she would not be blamed for it. Shen Xin's Heavens were high and the Emperor was far away so what she said would be the truth.
Shen Miao smiled gently, "Then many thanks to Second Shen Shen for accompanying."
Her words were polite but Ren Wan Yun could not help but raise her eyebrows and instantly a face full of smiles appeared, "We are all one family."
After solving the problem of living, the next step was to pack up. Because Shen Qing and Shen Yue said that they were somewhat tired, they did not eat together. It was brought to the room by the servants. Upon reaching the Northern pavilion, without waiting for Ren Wan Yun to speak, Shen Miao said, "I also feel very tired and will not eat together with Second Shen and return to the room first."
Ren Wan Yun was surprised for a moment before smiling, "Then it will be up to you. If one is tired, then rest early. "
Shen Miao nodded her head in agreement.
When the little monk who led the way brought Shen Miao and her servants to the room, Shen Miao could not help but sigh.
Indeed, in Wo Long Temple, such a desolate and simple temple, this room was particularly elegant. There was a small forest at the side and it was quite secluded. Even though the furnishings in the room were simple, it was exquisite everywhere. It made one's heart feel happy upon seeing it.
"The scenery here is really beautiful." Gu Yu was somewhat surprised.
"Replying to benefactor, this room is only for distinguished guests of the temple. The residence's Furen instructed to leave the distinguished room for benefactor." The little monk lowered his head and said.
"Help me thank Second Shen for her good intentions." Shen Miao said lightly. However, his eyes were looking around. This was the innermost room of the northern pavilion. In other words, under the beautiful scenery, this place was almost completely isolated. Even if someone were to shout, it would be useless.
It was rare that they even sealed the way out for her. As for the exquisite decoration of this room, it was probably just to make it convenient for "that person" to enjoy.
"What incense is this?" Jing Zhe picked up the few sticks of incense on the table and sniffed it, "It is somewhat like orchids but more fragrant than orchids." Her eyes landed on the orchid shaped incense burner, "This incense burner is really unique."
When Gu Yu saw it, she also smiled, "It seems that the temple had specially inquired about it. Young Lady would light the incense before going to bed. When Young Lady is tired at night, one would light it before going to bed. I can also sleep soundly at night. "
"Now one feel that this Wo Long Temple is not bad." Jing Zhe joked, "No wonder even though it is deep in the mountains, Second Furen still had to come over to pray."
Shen Miao's brows slightly wrinkled and walked over to the small table. She took the incense from Jing Zhe's hands and sniffed it. After sniffing it, her brows wrinkled even tighter.
When the two maids saw it, they asked hesitantly, "Young Lady, is there something wrong with this incense?"
In Shen Miao's heart, ever since she entered Wo Long Temple, she had never let go of her heart. The more appropriate this place was, the more she could see the danger. She indeed had the habit of using incense before going to bed. Moreover females would always like exquisite things. That incense burner was made pitifully and adorably. Just to play with it, normal females would light incense to match the quiet and elegant environment.
But for her, it was not the case. The surviving females in the Inner Palace would use all kinds of means to climb up. Shen Miao had been the mistress of the six palaces for so many years in her previous life, so naturally she had a little bit of eyesight. She had seen a lot of these shady methods and things. As for the aphrodisiac in the incense, it was something that the concubines played with.
If she was an ordinary unmarried young lady, naturally she would not have heard of such a thing.
"Not a good thing." Her hand loosened and that incense fell onto the small table.
Gu Yu and Jing Zhe were shocked and looked at each other. After a moment, Jing Zhe said, "Then I throw this thing out?"
"No need." Shen Miao's eyes landed on the small table. Ren Wan Yun and that person had spent so much effort to prepare a good gift for her. If these methods were wasted, it would be a pity. Her lips suddenly broke into a sneer, "Keep it. There will be a need for it."
…
In another room far away from Shen Miao's room, Ren Wan Yun was sitting in front of the couch and in front of her stood a stooped old woman. It was not anyone else but Gui Momo.
"You also know about tonight's matter. After success, there will naturally be benefits for you but if it is a failure … "Ren Wan Yun lightly snorted," You know what the result would be without me saying it. "
When she spoke, there was no trace of her usual amiable appearance and her eyes made one feel cold.
Gui Momo smiled flatteringly, "Furen rest assured. Leave everything to this old servant. This old servant will naturally not make any mistakes when doing things. It is expected that everything will go smoothly tonight. "
Ren Wan Yun's expression then eased up, "Naturally I trust you. After all you are the closest person to Fifth Lady. We are doing this for the Shen residence. When Fifth Lady becomes sensible in the future, she will know the pros and cons and naturally know that you are doing it for her good and will not treat you badly. "
Gui Momo nodded her head in agreement but her heart was filled with disdain. In the future when Shen Miao knew about this matter, it would be strange if she did not hate her to death. How would she think that it was for her good? Thinking of what would happen tonight, Gui Momo could not help but feel somewhat frightened. She did not expect that this Eldest Shen Furen, who always had a kind face, would actually think of such a vicious method. After all, if this matter landed on any unmarried female, it would be a life worse than death for the rest of their lives.
In the next moment, she saw Ren Wan Yun giving Cai Ju a look and Cai Ju smiled as she took a sachet over and stuffed it into Gui Momo's hands, "This time one will have to trouble Gui Momo to take care of it."
Gui Momo pinched it and found that the weight of the sachet was not light. A smile immediately blossomed on her face as she said, "Guaranteed that Furen will be satisfied."
After saying a few more words, Gui Momo then got up and left.
"Furen really want to rest here tonight?" Xiang Lan asked, "This is after all the same as Fifth Young Lady's room."
"No matter." Ren Wan Yun waved her hands without much care, "Tomorrow morning it will be what I say. Perhaps when Eldest Bo returns, it is unknown if there is still such a person in the world so there is nothing to be afraid of." She smiled somewhat fiercely, "Eldest Bo, Eldest Sao, who asked you to block my Qing-er's path."
