I made the villain right.

The sky was as black as ink.

After Shi Jin left the banquet, she got lost when she tried to find her way back. She wandered around the mansion for a long time, but she didn't know where she ended up.

Just as she was looking for someone to ask for directions, she suddenly heard voices coming from the yard, which caught her attention.

"Grandpa, why do you want me to marry that bitch Shi Jin? Not only has she refused to give me face time and time again, but this time she even rejected me openly, leaving me completely humiliated."

She recognized the voice as Xu Wuchen's. She carefully checked the situation around the yard and found it was quiet and empty, so she moved closer to the yard to see what was going on.

She poked a hole in the window paper, leaving a small one, and then she peered inside.

There were two people in the room, one was Xu Wuchen, and the other had his back to her so she couldn't see his face. But from what Xu Wuchen had just said, this person was his grandfather, Qin Yixian, the prime minister of the dynasty. The script she had brought had a rough mention that her marriage with Xu Wuchen was deliberately facilitated by Qin Yixian in front of His Majesty.

Xu Wuchen and Qin Yixian were in cahoots with each other and were currently plotting how to conquer her. She wanted to hear it.

"Why marry her? Do I need to tell you? If you can't even win over a woman, how can you be the king of a country in the future?" Qin Yixian said in a deep voice.

After hearing this, Xu Wuchen was very dissatisfied and said, "Why can my fourth brother marry a gentle and lovely wife, but I have to marry someone like Shi Jin who is ignorant, rude and vicious? How can she be worthy of being my wife?"

Qin Yixian was enraged and said, "What do you know, idiot? Such talents are easy to manipulate. Now that His Majesty has placed great importance on the Shi family, if you want to compete for the position of Crown Prince, you must rely on the power of the General's Mansion to defeat the Fourth Prince."

Hearing this, Shi Jin frowned. Control? Do you think I'm a puppet? No way.

Xu Wuchen was stunned by Qin Yixian's scolding. Qin Yixian realized that he had suddenly lost control and was a little rude, so he retracted his anger, softened his expression, and said softly: "Chen'er, asking you to marry Shi Jin is just a temporary measure. When you sit on the throne of the crown prince, or even sit on that position, why bother to worry about not being able to find a woman?"

“I understand.”

"Your Highness, please try to get her as soon as possible, and when she reaches the age of marriage, ask His Majesty for a marriage. Then I will lend a helping hand to Your Highness."

These hypocrites and scumbags are planning to use her to fight for the position of crown prince. Have they asked for my opinion? They are dreaming.

Qin Yixian thought for a moment and said, "According to the information passed by the spies, Shi Jin has changed a lot since returning to the mansion. She started to buy people's hearts in the mansion. The vicious behavior you saw when you went to the mansion that day was just a play she put on."

Shi Jin's eyebrows twitched, and shock flashed in his eyes. No wonder in the script he could always know his whereabouts and create various encounters. It turned out that he had planted spies in the mansion.

Hearing this, Xu Wuchen was very puzzled and asked: "Why is she acting in front of me? It doesn't make sense."

Qin Yixian thought for a while before saying, "Maybe she is not acting in front of you, but in front of the whole world."

"What do you mean?" Xu Wuchen was a little confused.

"She may not be as rude and vicious as the rumors say."

Shi Jin raised her eyebrows and gritted her teeth slightly. Qin Yixian was indeed a veteran official in the court. He had a sharp eye and noticed some clues. However, no matter how much they thought about it, they would not know that the real Shi Jin had her core replaced, and now this body was filled with her who lived in real life.

"Oh, no wonder I always feel weird when I see her. It turns out she is acting deliberately. This is interesting." Xu Wuchen's calm heart began to feel a breeze, and he suddenly became interested in her.

Shi Jin was worried. She had worked so hard to act, but it turned out to be fake. It would no longer be possible for her to act in front of him.

When Shi Jin was thinking about continuing to eavesdrop, she suddenly heard a series of footsteps that became clearer and clearer in the yard. She was startled and forced to interrupt her eavesdropping. In order not to be discovered, she quickly used her lightness skills to climb over a wall and leave the yard.

Shi Jin walked around and finally saw a maid, so she quickly grabbed one to ask for directions, but the maid in white was very considerate and took her out directly.

Before leaving the mansion, she happened to meet Yun Youying and Xu Wusheng. They were standing in front of the carriage with a loving look on their faces. It seemed that Yun Youying was going back and Xu Wusheng was there to see her off.

Yun Youying saw Shi Jin coming out, so she asked in confusion, "Didn't Miss Shi leave early? Why are you going back now?"

Shi Jin looked relaxed and said in a gentle tone, "Just now I felt the banquet was boring, so I walked around the mansion to take a breath. Now I'm tired and it's time to go back. Why did Miss Yun leave too? Why don't you stay a little longer?"

"I felt a little tired, so I went back early," Yun Youying said leisurely, her face a little pale.

Xu Wusheng glanced at her face, his eyes showing some worry, and reminded her: "I see that you don't look well, remember to see the doctor when you return home."

Yun Youying smiled warmly and said, "Okay."

Shi Jin didn't want to see the two of them being so affectionate, so he got in the carriage and left quickly.

After Shi Jin returned home, he went straight to the study and stayed alone without letting Zhilu accompany him.

Shi Jin sat in front of the desk, looking at the papers on the desk thoughtfully. The papers recorded diagrams of events that were about to happen and relationship diagrams.

Xu Wuchen and Xu Wusheng were clearly circled on the paper, with "granted marriage" and "poisoning" written next to them respectively.

Shi Jin picked up his pen and added Qin Yixian's name and the word "eyeliner" next to Xu Wuchen on the relationship diagram.

She then crossed out her previous plan of "committing death in front of Xu Wuchen", but she pondered over the next plan for a long time and was unable to start writing.

When he glanced at the mark next to Shi Sheng's name, his expression became solemn.

She was so busy with her own affairs these days that she almost forgot about Shi Sheng's poisoning.

The script mentioned that Shi Sheng was poisoned while investigating a case and her life was in danger. Fortunately, she was treated in time and saved her life, but she became a vegetable. She was unable to attend her coming-of-age ceremony and even her wedding.

Judging from the time, it should have happened in the next few days. She must prevent this tragedy from happening. She has no idea about her own affairs at the moment, so she will put it aside for now.

Shi Jin stood up and suddenly felt a warm current flowing through his lower abdomen.

She was shocked and had a bad feeling that she was having her period.

She hurried out of the study to look for Zhilu, and went to her bedroom but didn't find her. She had to go back to her bedroom, only to find Zhilu burning incense in her bedroom.

So she asked anxiously: "So you are here, do you have any sanitary napkins?"

Seeing her hurried look, Zhilu looked up and asked in confusion: "What is a sanitary napkin?"

Realizing that Zhilu didn't understand, she explained: "It's just that I'm having my period, do you have a menstrual cloth?"

After Zhilu understood, she took out a small box from a large box where clothes were kept and gave her a white cloth.

Shi Jin planned to change it after taking a shower. She was a little confused by the several straps on the moon cloth. After asking Zhilu for help, she knew how to use this thing.

The two ropes in front and back of the moon cloth are tied around the waist, and then a rubber band is circled around the waist. The rubber band passes through the rope tied around the waist and then tied horizontally around the waist to form a belt. The rubber band is elastic, so it will not fall off when tied on the body, and it will not squeeze the skin.

Shi Jin felt that compared to modern sanitary napkins that could be torn off and put on, the ancient menstrual cloth was simply too troublesome and time-consuming to change.

After Shi Jin got dressed, she lay down on the bed and asked Zhilu to get her a hand warmer, which she placed on her belly to warm. This was her habit.

In the past, she had a cold uterus and suffered from dysmenorrhea every time she had her period. The pain was so severe that she almost lost her life. She was basically in a state of lying in bed for the first four days of her period, and only recovered fully on the fifth day.

But this body didn't seem to have any intense reaction, just a little dull, without any pain. The original owner must have saved the galaxy in her previous life to have this body without dysmenorrhea. She used to envy those girls who didn't have dysmenorrhea, and now she also experienced it, she was so happy in her heart that Shi Jin suddenly chuckled and laughed out loud.

The silent room was suddenly filled with silly laughter, which seemed particularly strange.

Her appearance scared Zhilu, and there was worry in his eyes as he stared at her. Ever since she came back from the party, she had locked herself in the study, feeling depressed. Now she was lying on the bed, laughing foolishly by herself. Zhilu was somewhat suspicious whether she had encountered something dirty at the party.

She asked worriedly, "Did Miss encounter any troubles at the banquet?"

"I've been arguing with people all day and overhearing a lot of things. Nothing has been worrying me. Fortunately, today I finally have something to be happy about."

"What happy news? Zhilu wants to hear it too," Zhilu asked curiously.

"Secret" Seeing that Shi Jin didn't want to say it, Zhilu curled his lips.

When she thought about not having dysmenorrhea every time she had her period, she felt so happy that the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise up and her eyes were full of smiles.

Suddenly remembering Shi Sheng's matter, her smile gradually disappeared, and she said seriously: "Zhilu, go to the Dali Temple early tomorrow to ask for leave for your elder brother."

"it is good"

After Zhilu left, Shi Jin gradually fell asleep with the warmth in his belly.

The next day

In order to prevent Shi Sheng from going to court, Shi Jin got up before dawn and had breakfast with Shi Sheng.

Since Shi Sheng and Shi Wei went to court earlier, Shi Jin never ate breakfast with them. When Shi Sheng saw Shi Jin at the dinner table, it felt like it was a new experience.

Shi Sheng smiled and asked, "Sister, why did you get up so early today?"

After taking a sip of porridge, Shi Jin said leisurely: "It feels like I haven't had breakfast with my brother for a long time, so I woke up early today to have breakfast with him."

Shi Sheng smiled, shook his head and said: "It's rare that you have this kind of heart."

Shi Jin chatted while eating, "Brother, have you encountered any major cases recently?" She deliberately brought up the topic.

Shi Sheng paused while eating porridge with a spoon, looked at Shi Jin and asked, "There haven't been any major cases recently, what's wrong?"

Shi Jin smiled lightly, implying something. "It's nothing, I just want to show my concern for you, brother. You are the Junior Official of the Ministry of Justice and you have a lot of work to do. You have to deal with a lot of cases every day. It's really hard."

Shi Sheng glanced at her and saw the clue, "Sister, just say what you want to say."

Shi Jin looked into Shi Sheng's eyes, sat up straight and said seriously: "I had a dream last night. I dreamed that my elder brother was poisoned when he was out on a case and was in danger. I am worried that the dream will come true. My elder brother should stay at home sick recently and rest for a few days."

Hearing this, Sheng sneered and said nonchalantly: "Don't take dreams seriously, don't worry, sister."

Shi Jin knew the plot, and seeing Shi Sheng's nonchalant attitude, she looked like she was disappointed with him. She tried her best to persuade him, "Brother, your job is special, so you will inevitably offend some people and be retaliated against. All of these are possible."

"There are still many things I need to deal with in the Dali Temple. How can I delay the progress for something that is not worth mentioning?"

This was like the helplessness of a doctor when he encountered a disobedient patient. When Shi Jin got anxious, his voice was tinged with a sense of urgency, "Brother, it's better to be safe than sorry. Nothing bad will happen if you are careful. If it does happen, it will be too late."

"If there's nothing else to do, I'll go and get busy first." Shi Sheng stood up as if nothing had happened and was about to go out to attend court.

Seeing this, Shi Jin felt distressed, holding her forehead with a headache, and sighed "Ouch". So she had to decide to pretend to be sick to get Shi Sheng's attention.

Suddenly, she covered her stomach with her hands, looking in unbearable pain, and said, "Brother, my stomach hurts."
