The next day, Shen Wan still didn't get out of bed and even ate breakfast in bed.

The days of being bedridden were really unbearable. If she hadn't been able to calm down and read a book, she would have been able to hold it back.

I was reading a book to pass the time when the little maid stood outside the bead curtain and said, "Girl, the fourth girl is here."

Shen Wan put away the book, and Shen Wei walked in. She was wearing a goose-yellow dress with large begonia flowers embroidered on the skirt, a gauze mask, and light steps.

She stepped forward and Shen Wan asked, "Is the injury on your face still healed?"

The breath was a little weak, and the corners of Shen Wei's eyes turned red, "Fourth sister is sick herself, but she still misses me."

Shen Wan said, "I'm fine, I just don't have much strength."

But how could a normal person have no strength, and his face was extremely pale? He had gone to the doctor and the imperial doctor, but he couldn't find the cause. Shen Wei was worried on her face and anxious in her heart.

Shen Wan was pretending to be sick, but in order not to reveal her secret, Shen Wan said, "Fourth sister, why don't you go back first, lest I get over my illness and give it to you."

Shen Wei shook her head, "I'm not afraid."

When she turned around, the maid handed the brocade box to her. Shen Wei opened the brocade box, and Shen Wan saw the contents of the brocade box, which was a silver fox mask.

Shen Wei apologized, "My eldest sister's favorite mask was damaged by me. No matter how well I repaired it, there are still traces of damage, so my father had someone make an exact replica of it and send it to me this morning." Come into the house, I hope you don’t mind, eldest sister.”

Shen Wan laughed, "That mask can keep your appearance intact, so it's worth every penny. If you didn't tell me it was new, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference at all."

Hearing what Shen Wan said, Shen Wei felt relieved.

Shen Wan said, "Fourth sister went to pay her respects to grandma?"

Shen Wei nodded, "I came here from my grandmother. Just now, my second aunt told my grandmother about my eldest sister's illness. She was worried about whether she was possessed by an evil spirit. She wanted to ask a Taoist priest to come into the house to have a look. My grandmother agreed. I guess the Taoist priest has already passed by now. On the way to the Hou Mansion."

She was really impatient. She hadn't been sick for long, so she was eager to recruit Taoist priests into the palace. However, it would have been better if she had done this earlier. If it were a few days later, the Prince Changshan Palace might not be able to give her a notice when there was a banquet, but she wanted to He used a banquet at Changshan Palace to dress up his cousin's wedding to Zhao Zhuangyuan.

Shen Wan said, "Second Aunt cares about me so much, so I have to go and see for myself."

Shen Wan opened the quilt and was about to get out of bed. Shen Wei said, "Eldest sister is weak. It's better to stay in bed and rest. Don't go."

She didn't have to go, she just didn't want to stay in bed anymore.

There was nothing Shen Wei could do to stop what Shen Wan wanted to do. Yinshuang helped her wash up, then sat down to dress up, and put some rouge on her face, which made her look more energetic.

Shen Wei couldn't persuade Shen Wan, so she simply went with her. Originally, she wanted to take a look.

Because of the delay in dressing up, and because they were "weak" and walked slowly, by the time Shen Wan and the others arrived at Qinghui Courtyard, the Taoist priest had already arrived and the desks had been set up.

The Taoist priest looked like he had an immortal spirit, and he looked like he was very capable.

The old lady was also in the yard, the second wife and the third wife were with her, and the fourth wife was also there, as well as Shen Ying, Shen Rong and the others, not to mention the maid and mother-in-law.

Shen Wan walked over with the support of Shen Wei and heard familiar footsteps behind her. She turned around and saw her father and eldest brother walking over.

Shen Wan did not expect that Shen Jing would come. Her father never believed in this. After all, for her as a daughter, he would rather believe that she had it. Shen Wan's nose was sore.

Shen Jing didn't expect Shen Wan to come back, so he said, "Why are you here too?"

Shen Wan said, "My daughter rarely gets sick, but this time her illness was inexplicable. My second aunt and grandmother invited Taoist priests into the house, and my daughter also wanted to know if she was possessed by an evil spirit."

When Shen Yuan and others arrived, Shen Jing didn't let her go back, but looked at the Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest had already laid out all the things needed to calculate the horoscopes and said, "Give me the horoscopes of their birth dates."

The second wife asked the maid to hand the horoscopes of Shen Wan and Xie Jingyan prepared in advance to the Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest just glanced at the horoscopes and said, "The horoscopes of these two people are extremely valuable."

A prince is born.

A girl was born as the legitimate daughter of a marquis, her father was a general, her mother was rich, and she was designated as a prince's concubine at the age of one month.

It's not expensive.

The second wife said, "Although they have noble status, they may not be suitable. Please ask the Taoist priest to make a careful calculation."

The Taoist priest smiled and said, "That's true."

He reached out and calculated the horoscopes of the two people for a while, and then came up with another divination.

Everyone watched with bated breath. After a while, the Taoist priest finished the calculation, and the old lady couldn't wait to ask, "How is it?"

The Taoist priest said, "These two characters are a pair made by heaven and created by the earth. They will definitely be able to love each other and grow old together."

The maids and ladies all looked at Shen Wan. Even though Shen Wan was mentally prepared, she still couldn't help but blush.

What you say is too envy-inducing and jealous. Can't you be more tactful and restrained?

The eagerness on the old lady's face froze, and the second lady's brows knitted together as she looked at the steward's mother behind her. The steward's mother shook her head again and again. This is not how she told the Taoist priest. After the Taoist priest received the money, why didn't he follow her instructions? manage.

The third wife glanced at the second wife and then said, "The eldest daughter in my family fell ill just a few days after her engagement. The doctor has not been able to find out the cause. We are worried that it is the horoscopes that are incompatible with each other..."

The Taoist priest smiled and said, "These two characters support each other and cannot conflict with each other. The family is worried too much. As for those who are sick, judging from the hexagrams, they should have eaten something by mistake. Pay more attention to their diet. It will be fine in a few days, but——"

At this point, the Taoist priest's voice became longer and he stopped.

The old lady asked, "What is it?"

The Taoist priest first looked at the old lady, then the second lady, "On my way here just now, I noticed that there were dark clouds faintly shrouded in the northwest over the Hou Mansion. Looking at the old lady and this lady again, the hall was dark. I'm afraid I have to walk for a while. bad luck, and there may even be a bloody disaster.”

The old lady's heart skipped a beat when she heard these words, and the second lady's face became even more ugly.

Even if he knew it was false, it was unlucky enough for the Taoist priest to say such unlucky words in public.

He dared to take money and not do anything, and he still wanted to bring trouble on her. Is this Taoist really desperate for his life? !

The second wife's eyes were cold.

Shen Wan asked, "Is there a way to resolve it?"

The Taoist priest said, "Since I have come to the house and ordered here, I naturally want to help resolve one or two."

The old lady held the prayer beads in her hand and said, "Please tell me."

The Taoist priest said nothing and started another hexagram.

Then he said, "The old lady needs to fast for three days, copy hundreds of Buddhist scriptures every day, worship in front of the Buddha for seven days, take back the burned ashes, and drink it with water."

After saying that, the Taoist priest looked at the second wife again, "This lady's situation is more serious. She needs to fast for seven days and copy hundreds of Buddhist scriptures every day. She needs to be sincere, otherwise there is no guarantee that her children will not be harmed."

The second wife's silver teeth were almost broken. If she hadn't been the one to find this Taoist priest, she would have exposed him as a liar in public.

Shen Wan said, "Copying hundreds of Buddhist scriptures every day will probably make me exhausted, but I'd rather believe that I have it. I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case."

The old lady had a long face.

Shen Jing looked at the Taoist priest and said, "Since I have troubled the Taoist priest, I will simply make it more troublesome and ask the Taoist priest to calculate a good day for my daughter and Prince Ling to get married on."

The Taoist priest calculated it carefully and said, "The eighteenth day of next month will be very good. If you get married on this day, you will have good luck for the rest of your life."

Shen Wan, "...!!!"

Didn't she specifically tell Xie Jingyan to ask the Taoist priest to set their wedding date in half a year? If things are settled by then, she won't have to marry him, which doesn't count as actually occupying his position as Princess Ling's wife.

Even if he didn't follow her request, he also moved the wedding date forward. He will get married on the 18th next month. Today, he is 22, and it is less than a month.

Shen Wan angrily greeted him from the bottom of his heart.

At this moment, a certain man far away in Prince Ling's Mansion had an itchy nose and sneezed hard.

Shen Jing said, "Thank you very much, Master Taoist."

The Taoist priest finished his work and packed up his things to leave.

When I left, I left behind two words of motto:

“There is no door to blessings or misfortune, only people call it upon themselves.”

"If you have evil thoughts in your heart, they will be counterattacked."
