The Rebirth of the Empress

Night Meeting with Little Xie Marquis (part 3)

This rain kept falling all night.

In the quiet forest, the rain finally stopped, everything withered but colder after the autumn rain. The air was filled with a damp scent and early in the morning the monks at the temple started ringing the bell.

The dull sound of a bell wakes up a person who is sound asleep. Ren Wan Yun opened his eyes. She could not sleep well all night because she kept having nightmares and ended up falling asleep by dawn. When he woke up, his forehead was covered in sweat.

"Furen is awake." Xiang Lan went up, "To wipe someone's face."

After Ren Wan Yun took a bath, he looked out. Peace was restored after the rain and the birds chirped merrily.

She smiled, “Replace to a set of brighter clothes. And also remove the turquoise flower encrusted with pomegranate stone.”

She is currently in middle age and has long been used to wearing dark clothes and rarely has she personally chosen brighter clothes to wear. Cai Ju smiled, "Furen's mood is indeed good and wearing such a bright color, one's spirit will be much higher."

Ren Wan Yun looked into the mirror and smiled in satisfaction. He naturally felt good. It could be said that he was in a cheerful mood and high spirits.

When everything was ready, he said, “Let's go. It's time to call my 'tired' niece to eat.”

The Northern Pavilion was the deepest and was so silent that there was not a single servant. When Ren Wan Yun saw her, his gaze was filled with satisfaction. It was assumed that Prince Yu had handled matters so well that the servants were expelled.

If not for her fear that the incident would be investigated, she could not wait to immediately announce to the world what was happening inside. Because of the consequences, he could only suppress himself.

"Go and knock on the door." He said to Xiang Lan and a look of disdain flashed across his eyes.

He also looked down on the women who were soiling their bodies but he forgot who initiated the plan to turn Shen Miao into that.

"Fifth Young Miss," Xiang Lan walked to the door and knocked, "Second Miss is here."

There was no movement inside, as if there were no people at all.

"Fifth Young Miss, Second Furen is here." Xiang Lan continued to say.

But after knocking for a long time, they did not hear anyone answer.

Ren Wan Yun sighed and smiled, This Fifth Miss is truly a child. The sky was clear but he was still lazing. It is not good to delay prayer time. Let me do it.”

He then walked to the front door and gently knocked before speaking softly, Fifth lady, it is time to get up and eat. After eating we still need to pray. One must not be intentional. ”

No one inside answered his words.

Ren Wan Yun turned around and was somewhat helpless. He did not know how to explain it to himself or others and softly said, “Forget it. Just push the door open and enter. The Fifth Woman's servant was not yet mature enough either. After returning, one must make sure to punish them. ” As he spoke, he wanted to push the door open and enter.

"Shen Second." A fluttering light voice sounded in silence. Ren Wan Yun was startled and thought that the voice was coming from inside the room but heard Xiang Lan and Cai Ju speak, “Fifth Young Miss. Second Young Miss.”

He then turned around in surprise, he saw Shen Yue standing together with Shen Miao.

Today Shen Miao wore an all-white silk dress and was covered in a white peony-designed robe. At first glance, it was as if he was showing filial piety. After getting used to seeing Shen Miao wearing bright red and green and wearing rustic clothes, this plain outfit was extremely elegant. Coupled with his slightly cold expression, it had a somewhat moving feeling.

There was a glint of jealousy in Shen Yue's eyes. He did not know when Tangmei's foolish appearance had improved. But it was unexpected that Shen Miao's original appearance was actually not bad. It was only because she was deliberately dressed with a vulgar appearance. Now that his temperament had changed and coupled with his appearance, it was naturally not the same as before.

Ren Wan Yun was also fascinated by Shen Miao's clothes. She frowned as she said, “Why is Fifth Miss's dress so disadvantageous? This white and innocent, if one does not know better, one will think that there is suffering in our family.”

"Yet the Second Shen was very bright." Shen Miao said with a smile.

Ren Wan Yun looked at his own clothes and suddenly recalled something before carefully sizing up Shen Miao. He did not know how Shen Miao had returned from the outside and still looked calm. But he can bully the others but not him about what happened last night. He had the intention to confirm it so he walked towards Shen Miao and pulled Shen Miao's arm as he asked cautiously, "Did Fifth Madam sleep well last night?"

“Thank you for the attention of Second Shen. Sleep is not bad.” Shen Miao smiled.

Ren Wan Yun carefully observed Shen Miao's expression and saw that his movements were not fake before an alarm went off in his heart. Since when did this Shen Miao become this great without anyone knowing? When normal women encounter such problems, won't they wail to Heaven and bash their heads to earth? How can he be calm like this? Could it be an act? He clearly heard a miserable cry last night.

Looking at Shen Miao's pair of clear eyes, a sense of anxiety suddenly emerged from Ren Wan Yun's heart and this anxiety left him perplexed. He smiled as he advanced to Shen Miao and said, “I will be comfortable since Fifth Madam is sleeping soundly.

After a first glance, she discovered that Shen Miao's neck was as beautiful as jade. He was born with a bright complexion and at this moment it was as if it was jade, without a single flaw, not to mention injuries.

This is impossible. The way Prince Yu played with women was always brutal, how could there not be a trace of him in Shen Miao?

Shen Yue looked at Shen Miao then looked at Ren Wan Yun. He felt that something most likely had happened but he had no idea what had happened.

His arms were fair and clean as if they were high-grade goat jade, without the slightest flaw. Ren Wan Yun stood blankly on the spot as Shen Miao pulled her arm back and smiled, "Shen Second seems to be checking on something."

“No...” Ren Wan Yun forced a smile, “Newly His heart was somewhat possessed and did not know what expression to show. How could there be no injuries on Shen Miao's body? He was also someone who passed by him, not to mention the type of person like Prince Yu, even that was a normal male, and there would also be some marks that would be left on the female body. Could it be that Prince Yu did not do it superficially? But Shen Miao's current expression was not like someone who had suffered many blows.

But Shen Miao maintained her appearance as if nothing had happened. How do I get this out into the open?

His eyes swept around and only looked at Huang Ying and Qing Luan from Shen Yue but did not see Jing Zhe and Gu Yu from Shen Miao. His eyes turned around and he said, “Where did the two maids go next to Fifth Miss? Disappeared so early."

“I've let them go bring you the porridge this morning. Wake up early in the morning and feel uncomfortable in my throat.”

"The kitchen is far from here." Ren Wan Yun smiled, “This child, just say it directly will work. But isn't the kitchen in the South pavilion?”

"Yes." Yeah." Shen Miao looked at him, "I came from the Southern pavilion."

"Omong empty what are you saying to Second Shen." Ren Wan Yun smiled, "Aren't you staying over at the North pavilion last night?"

His words were barely conveyed as he looked at the one-sided smile on Shen Miao's face. After he woke up from falling into the water, his expression was extremely cold and most of the time it would be a thin smile but that smile now seemed to be from his extremely brilliant heart but he did not know why it made others feel cold.

Ren Wan Yun's heart sank like sinking lead.

"Furen, this is bad, Young Miss disappeared!" With a panicked cry from the woman, everyone's eyes were fixed on the anxious expressions of the two maids. It was not anyone else but Yan Mei and Shui Bi from Shen Qing.

"What are you saying!" Ren Wan Yun suddenly shouted.

Shen Yue was a little surprised for a moment. Shen Qing really disappeared? He sneaked a look at Shen Miao and his final expression was flat and calm as if all that sounded were words of greeting.

"How could Qing-er disappear?" Ren Wan Yun grabbed onto Yan Mei's collar as he stared at her viciously like a master beast.

“Oh, this I know.” Shen Miao suddenly spoke.

Everyone's eyes were on him.

In silence, Shen Miao lightly smiled, “I just came from the South pavilion. Why that? It was only natural that I was resting in the Southern pavilion. ”

“Yesterday night, I really couldn't sleep so I went looking for Eldest Brother, hopping around to be able to exchange rooms with him. Eldest Brother agreed, most likely he felt that he would have peace of mind with the Second Shen next door. This morning after leaving the room, this one met Second Brother and came with him. Thinking of coming to thank Eldest Brother for him being so considerate with me in the exchange room. ”

With every word he said, Ren Wan Yun's heart sank slightly. Towards the end, the despair was too excessive and his cheeks trembled slightly as his eyes turned red as if he was a maniac animal.

Seeing Ren Wan Yun like that, Shen Yue was a bit scared. She had most likely guessed that a major event had occurred but saw the Second Household that had always been opposed to her mother landing in such a situation, she said, of course he was arrogant and followed Shen Miao's words, “Ya. This morning, I was the one who saw Fifth Sister walking out of the next room and at that moment came to eat with Sister.

Shen Miao's voice was as light as a feather but like a heavy hammer stuck in Ren Wan Yun's heart, it was so painful that he almost vomited blood.

“The person who rested here last night is not me. That is Eldest Brother. ”

Ren Wan Yun clutched his heart and took two steps back. He looked like he had almost fainted on the ground.

The person who rested here last night was not Shen Miao, but rather Shen Qing!

So that meant the woman Prince Yu was playing with was his Qing-er! Those miserable and sad cries all came from his Qing-er! She was just next door and was only separated by a wall with her daughter, but her daughter was insulted! This... How could he accept it! This whole thing must be wrong! This is impossible!

Ren Wan Yun's heart was almost torn to shreds as he looked at the closed door. In an instant, he did not have the courage to open it. He did not dare to think and see what kind of tragedy would happen in it.

Sensing the heaven and earth spinning, he still remembered not to let Shen Yue and Shen Miao see what was inside as if stretched out, if stretched out… She can hardly force a smile that looks uglier than crying, “ You all go back first, I just asked and Qing-er is still sleeping. Let's not wait for him.”

Shen Miao smiled, “Shen Second really knows how to joke. Just now you didn't even know Eldest Brother was resting inside and now you are saying that you have spoken to Eldest Brother. Could it be that Eldest Brother is hiding something personally? ”

"No!" Ren Wan Yun firmly denied it and when this action fell into Shen Yue's eyes, he felt even stranger. Shen Miao's eyes moved but shouted at the approaching figure, “Gui Momo! Need to trouble you to help Second Shen open this door.”

Gui Momo bowed her back as she walked. Today he was also told to arrive early and not be clear with the scenery in front of him. Hearing Shen Miao speak like that, she thought that Shen Miao had spoken to Ren Wan Yun and also felt a little guilty in her heart. Gui Momo did not see Ren Wan Yun's facial expression and did not see that the current was like the color of the ground.

Since Gui Momo was closer to that door, Ren Wan Yun was unable to block it. They heard the sound of 'zhi ya' as the door was slowly pushed open.

Everything is almost silent.

An attractive smell quickly spread from the door.
