After a tragic death and rebirth, I became the regent's favorite
Chapter 49 The First Bad Deed
Xiao Xuan was stunned for a moment, as if she hadn't reacted, but she quickly responded, "You mean, use their tricks on themselves?"
"Xuan'er, do you feel bad?"
Shen Moyu raised his eyes and looked at her quietly.
Xiao Xuan didn't think it would be a bad thing. As someone who grew up in the palace, she had seen a lot of similar dirty tricks, some even more cruel and bloody.
So when she first heard it, it wasn't that she couldn't accept it, but she was worried that Shen Moyu wouldn't be able to bear it.
"Mo You, you have to think it through. Once you do this, there's no turning back."
Xiao Xuan kindly reminded her that Shen Moyu was a lady from a noble family and had been raised in seclusion since childhood. If it was just talk, then there was still room for improvement.
If not, once it is done, and then to finish it, facing doubts and even pressure from other parties, she doesn't know whether Shen Moyu has thought it through.
"Xuan'er, do I have any other choice now?"
Shen Moyou smiled bitterly and shook his head, "They have already done this. I'll just let it go this time, but what about next time? I can't guarantee that I'll get into trouble one day. I don't want that to happen."
"If that's the case, then do it. They are asking for death themselves, so you can't blame anyone else, Qinye!"
Xiao Xuan has never been a good person. The reason why the young uncle asked her to come to Shen Moyu was to deal with emergencies. Perhaps, it was this time.
"The servant understands."
Although Qin Ye and Xiao Xuan, the master and servant, are not very serious on weekdays, she is reliable when it comes to serious matters.
"Even if Qingya Temple is an iron barrel, I will have someone chisel a hole in it."
"Xuan'er, this is my family affair. I hope you won't interfere unless it's absolutely necessary."
Shen Moyu specifically emphasized that she didn't want Xiao Xuan to be implicated, and she was not sure that tonight's events would be foolproof.
"Mo You, I..."
Xiao Xuan wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Shen Moyou shaking his head, "I know what you want to say, and I know why you agreed to come to Qingya Temple, but I still say that this is my family matter."
Xiao Xuan deliberately approached her and got close to her. She knew better than anyone how much of her sincerity was and how much of it was because of Xiao Linchuan. She didn't point it out because she could feel that Xiao Xuan had no ill intentions.
After Shen Moyou said this, Xiao Xuan didn't know what to say, and nodded silently, "I understand. I won't intervene unless it's absolutely necessary tonight."
"Roland, Meng Dong, go make the arrangements."
Shen Moyu's eyes were slightly cold. In his previous life, Shen Lian'er and Su Moli did not use such dirty means, but in this life they were so impatient.
Or perhaps it was because she got out of control too early, causing Su Moli and her daughter to panic.
After everything was arranged, they waited for night to fall, but the one who arrived before the conspiracy was Shen Lian'er.
At this time, only Shen Moyu and Meng Dong were in the room. Xiao Xuan and his servant had already returned to their rooms.
"Big sis, I brought you some snacks, can I come in?"
"Third sister, I'm ready to go to bed, you can go back."
Shen Moyu sat at the table, looking at the dark shadow outside the door. With the moonlight shining from the window, half of his face was hidden in the darkness, and the other half was reflected in the moonlight, looking particularly gloomy and cold.
"Big sister, please let me in. This cake is the most delicious in Wuyang Marquis's Mansion. It is not available outside. I brought it here especially for you to try."
Shen Lian'er was outside the door, and Shen Moyou inside pretended to be reluctant, "Since it is Third Sister's intention, then come in."
"Why aren't there any candles in Big Sister's room?"
When Shen Lian'er pushed the door open, she happened to see Shen Moyu's face, which was flickering, dark and eerie, and she was so scared that her hand holding the food box almost slipped.
"Didn't I tell you? I'm going to bed."
Shen Moyou stared at Shen Lian'er with a calm look, as if he wanted to see through her. "It's getting late. After delivering the cakes, Third Sister should go back and rest early."
"Big sister, why don't you try it first? It's delicious."
Shen Lian'er asked tentatively, her eyes rolling around as if she was trying to confirm something.
"What are you looking at, Third Sister? Do you think there's someone hiding in my room?"
Shen Moyou pointed it out bluntly, and Shen Lian'er was so frightened that she dared not breathe. She quickly said, "How could it be? The snack is still warm. Big sister, please have a rest after eating. I will go back to my room first."
"Don't worry, I will eat it while it's hot. Have a safe trip, third sister."
Shen Moyu smiled and sent Shen Lian'er out of the room. When he saw her walk to the door of her meditation room, he closed the door and went into the room.
"Miss, I'm afraid the problem lies with the pastries inside?"
Meng Dong opened the lunch box and found a plate of peach-colored pastries inside. He couldn't tell what they were made of.
"Probably not."
Shen Moyou looked at the cakes on the table, with no expression on his face, "Jichun, come and take a look."
Hearing his young lady's call, Ji Chun jumped in through the window, pinched some cakes and crushed them between his fingers, put his nose close to it and sniffed it, then took out the silver hairpin in his hair and probed it.
"Miss, this pastry is not poisonous, it's just an ordinary pastry."
"So what will they do..."
However, before Meng Dong could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ji Chun. She made a "hush" gesture to Meng Dong and Shen Moyu, and pointed in the direction of the door.
I saw that a small hole had been poked in the carved hollow of the wooden door, and a stick of incense came in from outside, with smoke rising. After a while, Ji Chun signaled them to cover their noses.
"Miss, it's the incense that fascinates the soul."
It turned out that delivering the pastries just now was just a cover. He wanted to confirm whether she was there and whether she was the only one in the room to avoid accidental injury.
"Meng Dong, I don't know why, but I feel a little sleepy. Go make the bed."
"Yes, ma'am."
After a while, the swaying figure outside left, and Meng Dong protected Shen Moyu and walked to the window. Roland, who was in the dark, saw Shen Moyu standing there and hurriedly appeared to meet him.
"There's a spellbinding incense in the room. Meng Dong, accompany me to Xuan'er's room. Luo Lan, you and Ji Chun go and bring Shen Lian'er over."
"Yes, ma'am."
For some reason, everyone was very excited. They seemed to be preparing to do something big, but at the same time they were afraid of being discovered. This nervous and exciting feeling made everyone's blood boil.
Xiao Xuan, who was sitting next door, was eagerly waiting. When she saw Shen Moyou climbing in through the window, she breathed a sigh of relief and said jokingly, "As the eldest daughter of the Shen family, she is quite skilled at climbing through windows."
"I'm already in such a mess, Xuan'er, please don't make fun of me."
Xiao Xuan also knew that Shen Moyou was probably upset at the moment, so she just teased her and sat down with her arm around her. "What's going on?"
"My third sister just sent a plate of cakes to my room, and a moment later I noticed a stick of incense coming through the door. Jichun and Roland were already dealing with it."
Shen Moyou said, pinching her hands tightly together, her body trembling uncontrollably. She looked at Xiao Xuan with a wry smile, "This is the first time I've done something bad, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Xuan'er."
