Shen Shen Shen doesn't pursue men, only money

Chapter 181 Young Master tells two pieces of news

Shen Shenshen paused his chopsticks in mid-air and looked at Xie Wangan, waiting for him to continue.

"God, let me tell you quickly, the amount of medicine in the Zimei tea is not large, and I can't get away with it because it's been too long."

Shen Shenshen put down her chopsticks and understood his purpose: he must have something to tell Ziyuan, but the emperor couldn't know it. Master Xie wanted to find her, but he couldn't find her alone.

Yuan Zimei is just a tool.

"Weichuan, please speak."

"Shenshen, tell Ziyuan that, first of all, the murderer who hurt Miss Zhou mentioned by the Imperial Study yesterday must be Mu Mian'er, no matter what happens in the future. I have already pointed all the traces or evidence I can find to her, and it must be flawless."

"it is good."

"Secondly, I have discovered some unusual movements in the Burning Shadow Hall. It seems that there is a problem inside. Shenshen and Ziyuan should be careful, especially you, Shenshen."

"Fenyingtang?! Does Weichuan know what exactly happened?"

Master Xie shook his head, "I am still investigating the details, but it is said that someone has recruited a group of people in the Burning Shadow Hall to get rid of Mu Yejun."

"Get rid of Huaibi? Why?" Shen Shen was puzzled.

"More details are unknown for the time being. However, the person who wants to get rid of Mu Yejun is a new force in Fenying Hall. Mu Yejun is ruthless and likes to kill everyone, but his only weakness is you." He looked at Shen Shenshen and said, "So I came here today to remind you to be more careful. I heard that Mu Yejun likes you very much. If that person uses Shenshen to threaten Mu Yejun, it should be very useful."

Shen Shenshen was silent. How could she not know Huaibi's love for her? Indeed, if she threatened him with her, Huaibi would agree to anything. But she couldn't afford it.

"Alright. I have said everything I wanted to say."

At this time, Xie Wang'an had regained his elegant, easy-going, and suave appearance, with a smile on his face, making anyone who saw him feel like spring breeze.

"Weichuan, thank you very much." Shen Shenshen thanked sincerely.

"You don't need to thank me. Ziyuan has done a lot for the gods. Besides, I am happy to serve a beautiful woman."

"Yes. Master Xie is indeed a young man who is not romantic."

"Hahahaha, I really like what God said."

"Well... why did I fall asleep?" Yuan Zimei looked up in confusion.

"Zimei, it's time to eat." Master Xie said

Yuan Zimei was probably a typical love-brained person. She didn't even bother to figure out why she suddenly fell asleep in half a cup of tea before Master Xie used his beauty trap to completely win her over.

Shen Shenshen's mentality was completely different at this time. She ate her lunch silently. Yuan Zimei looked at Master Xie with admiration and affection throughout the whole process.

After lunch, the three of them walked out of Zuiyue Tower together. Shen Shenshen bowed to the two of them and said goodbye. As he turned around, he heard a voice coming from behind him.

"I'm leaving now."

"Weichuan, when can I see you again?"

"Zi Mei can invite me at any time."

"Why didn't Weichuan come to the Shangshu Mansion to propose marriage?"

"Marriage is a serious matter and I must obey my parents' orders."

"Then I will go find my father and tell you. That should be ok, right?"

"Zi Mei, Minister Yuan should..."

As they walked further and further away, the sound gradually faded. But Shen Shen had figured out that Xie Wangan was a real Poseidon. Then he thought complacently: Fortunately, my Ziyuan is narcissistic and not lustful.

After returning to the mansion, he went to the main courtyard to report his safety as usual. He then shamelessly asked Madam Shen if she could have dinner in her own garden.

Mrs. Shen didn't know what she was secretly busy with all day, and she was too lazy to ask and just let her do as she pleased.

After entering the boudoir, Shen Shenshen immediately changed her underwear and lay down to catch up on some sleep. After telling no one to disturb her, she fell into a deep sleep. After about two hours, she called her maid to clean up for her, and calculated the time to have the small kitchen prepare meals.

It was almost the hour of You when Zhu Yanxiao arrived.

Dinner had already been placed on the coffee table in the boudoir. It was obvious that Shen Shen had calculated the time and was waiting for him.

"Ziyuan, come and eat after you wash your hands."

Zhu Yanxiao laughed, "It's very similar to the days after I got married to Shenshen."

Shen Shen was stunned, and immediately felt that something was wrong. If things continued like this, wouldn't they be like an old married couple after they got married? Well, we still need to make some changes.

While she was lost in thought, Zhu Yanxiao had already sat beside her. Before eating, he asked, "Did Weichuan go to look for the gods today?"

"Ziyuan knows?"

"Yes. He sent his confidant to look for me for something important. But in order to avoid being noticed, let him tell the gods, and then you will tell me."

"I see. At first I was worried about how he knew that I was in Heyinlou, and whether it was a trick."

"Well, my god is the most cautious." Zhu Yanxiao couldn't help but pinch her face.

Shen Shen rubbed his face hurriedly: "Oh, it's ugly."

Zhu Yanxiao changed the subject: "Let's eat first, and we'll talk later."

After the meal, the two drank the tea served by Lu Hen, and Shen Shen repeated what Master Xie said today.

As Zhu Yanxiao listened, his index finger involuntarily tapped on the coffee table, thinking about what Shen Shenshen was saying.

After Shen Shen finished speaking, Zhu Yanxiao lightly tapped his index finger a few more times, "Shen Shen, the first thing should have been settled. Weichuan had arranged all the obvious clues the night I sent you back home. The next day, when I went to the palace to report to His Majesty in the Imperial Study, the evidence the Jinwu Guards had was exactly the same as what I said. Combined with the covert operation yesterday, the murderer who scratched Miss Zhou's face can only be Mu Mian'er."

Shen Shen said worriedly: "But Zhou Yunxi knows the truth. I believe that Duke Zhou told her the results of Ziyuan's investigation when he returned home yesterday. What if she tells the truth..."

"No." Zhu Yanxiao said affirmatively: "She won't say it."

"Ziyuan is so sure? Does he really know Miss Zhou so well?"

"It's not that I understand her, but I understand... Mu Yejun."

"What do you mean, Ziyuan?"

"Early this month, Shenshen and this prince went to ask Miss Zhou who the murderer was, but she didn't even confirm Mu Yejun directly, not even a word about him. Shenshen, guess why?"

"Hmm..." Shen Shenshen pondered for a moment and said uncertainly: "She was threatened?"

"Yes. Mu Yejun must have threatened her that if she told anyone, he would kill her... He might even kill everyone in the Duke's Mansion."

Shen Shen agreed. This is indeed what Mu Yejun would do.

"So this prince is betting. I'm betting that Zhou Yunxi won't say a word. From yesterday to today, she didn't ask Duke Zhou to find His Majesty to explain the truth, which means that this prince's bet is right."

"Deceiving the emperor...Ziyuan dares to gamble?"

Zhu Yanxiao looked at her with his phoenix eyes, and said unhappily, "This prince seems to remember someone pleading for Mu Yejun at Jixian Teahouse. What? It hasn't even been two days and you're saying that this prince has deceived the king?"

"Oh~" Shen Shen hurriedly said coquettishly: "The point is that I am worried about Ziyuan, not deceiving the king." After saying that, she blinked her eyes: "Ziyuan, don't you know my feelings?!"

"Yes. Shenshen, please stop using honey traps on this prince in the future."

"How can I use beauty to trap you? No matter how beautiful she is, she can't be more beautiful than the prince. This is my true feelings." Seeing Zhu Yanxiao's unfriendly look, she immediately changed her words: "Ziyuan, the second piece of news that Weichuan mentioned is the key point."

Zhu Yanxiao heard her get back to the point, temporarily suppressed the thought of throwing her on the bed, and responded: "It is indeed very likely that the gods were used to threaten Mu Yejun. This prince has an inference."

"What's the inference?"

"Last time, this prince asked Fei Daowei to track Mu Mian'er to a famous house. He saw her report to a man that she failed to kidnap you, and then she was killed by the man. The man later fought with Fei Daowei and escaped... This prince guessed that the person who kidnapped you was the force of Fen Ying Tang mentioned by Weichuan."

"Ah? There's this part? Then... should I also thank Zhu Qing? I'm so conflicted. He saved me but wants to destroy my innocence... Is Zhu Qing a good person or a bad person?

"There is no absolute good or bad. In short, the gods cannot be trusted. Besides, Zhu Qing is no longer humane now."

"Ah... this..." It was hard to say what this 'inhumane' Shen Shen said, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Ziyuan's inference makes sense. The man in black should be the new force of Fenying Hall targeting Huaibi."

Zhu Yanxiao said with some concern: "Shenshen, please don't leave the house recently. It's quite dangerous. You should protect yourself."

"Okay." Shen Shen nodded: "There is no problem with Heyinlou. We just need to wait for the opening day to put up the jewelry. By the way, has the Imperial Observatory given an auspicious date for the opening?"

Zhu Yanxiao said: "Today I have found Deputy Director Zhang of the Imperial Observatory, and he calculated that an auspicious day will take two days."
