Venomous Empress Reborn

Chapter 76: Room

“This…” Ren Wanyun was a little hesitant. If she lived with Shen Miao, it would be difficult for her to get away if anything happened to Shen Miao. Without waiting for her to think of a better idea, Shen Miao continued,” If Aunt doesn’t want to, I can make do with living in the same room as Eldest or Second Sister.”

Shen Yue did not say anything. Although Shen Qing did not know what her mother was up to, she could vaguely guess that this trip was targeted at Shen Miao. Moreover, she hated Shen Miao so much that she did not even want to pretend to be friendly with her. She naturally said coldly, “I’m used to living alone.”

“In that case…” Shen Miao pondered for a moment.

“Then I’ll stay in the north pavilion with Fifth Miss.” Before Shen Miao could finish speaking, Ren Wanyun took the initiative to speak.

Shen Miao smiled. “Thank you for showing some consideration, Second Aunt.”

Ren Wanyun couldn’t help but frown. In an instant, she smiled again. “We’re all family.”

After settling the problem of where to stay, it was time to unpack the luggage. Because Shen Qing and Shen Yue said that they were a little tired, they did not eat together. When they arrived at the north pavilion, without waiting for Ren Wanyun to speak, Shen Miao said, “I also feel very tired, so I’ll go back to my room first.”

Ren Wanyun was stunned for a moment before saying with a smile, “Alright, if you’re tired, rest early.”

Shen Miao nodded in agreement.

When the young monk led Shen Miao and her servants to the room, Shen Miao couldn’t help but sigh.

Indeed, in a simple temple like the Wolong Temple, this room looked especially elegant. Beside it was a forest, which was quite quiet. Although the furnishings in the room were simple, they were exquisite.

“The scenery here is really beautiful.” Gu Yu was a little surprised.

“Only the noble guests of the temple can stay in this room. The madam who came with you instructed us to leave the guest room to you,” the young monk said with his head lowered.

......

“Help me thank Second Aunt for her kindness,” Shen Miao said indifferently. She looked around. This was the innermost room in the north pavilion. In other words, this place was isolated. Even if someone shouted, they couldn’t be heard.

They had really carefully planned this to make sure she couldn’t escape. As for the exquisite decoration of this room, it was probably prepared for that man.

“What incense is this?” Jingzhe picked up the incense on the table and sniffed it. “It smells like an orchid, but even better than that.” Her gaze landed on the incense burner that was made of orchids. “This incense burner is really unique.”

When Gu Yu saw this, she smiled and said, “It seems like the temple knows a lot about Miss. Without incense, Miss can’t fall asleep at night.”

“Now I think this Wolong Temple is not bad.” Jingzhe chuckled and teased, “No wonder Second Madam insisted on coming over to pray.”

Shen Miao frowned slightly and walked to the table. She took the incense from Jingzhe and sniffed it. After smelling it, she frowned even more.

Seeing this, the two girls asked hesitantly, “Miss, is there anything wrong with this incense?”

Ever since Shen Miao entered the Wolong Temple, she had never been at ease. The more perfect this place seemed, the more she could see the dangers inside. Before she went to bed, she indeed had a habit of lighting incense.

However, Shen Miao had been the head of the harem for so many years in her previous life, so she wouldn’t be fooled easily. She had seen many of these dirty tricks and things. For example, the aphrodisiac in the incense, it had been used by the concubines countless times.

If she were an ordinary girl, she would naturally have never heard of this thing.

“It’s nothing good.” She let go and the incense landed on the table.

Gu Yu and Jingzhe were shocked and looked at each other. A moment later, Jingzhe said, “Then should I throw this out?”

“No need.” Shen Miao’s gaze landed on the tea table. Ren Wanyun and that person had spent so much effort preparing good gifts for her. It would be a pity if these gifts were wasted. A cold smile suddenly appeared on her lips. “Keep it. It will be useful eventually.”

...

In another room far away from Shen Miao’s house, Ren Wanyun sat in front of the couch. In front of her stood a hunched old woman. It was none other than Nanny Gui.

“You know what will happen tonight. If it succeeds, you will naturally be rewarded. If it doesn’t…” Ren Wanyun snorted.” You don’t need me to remind you of the consequences. ”

When she spoke, she was no longer as amiable as usual. Her gaze was really cold.

Nanny Gui smiled obsequiously and said, “Madam, don’t worry. I’ll take care of everything. I think everything will go smoothly tonight.”

Only then did Ren Wanyun’s expression soften. She said, “Of course I trust you. After all, you’re the closest person to Fifth Miss. We’re doing this for the sake of the Shen family. When Fifth Miss becomes sensible in the future, she will naturally know that you’re doing this for her own good and will treat you well.”

Nanny Gui nodded in agreement, but she felt disdain in her heart. When Shen Miao found out about this in the future, it would be strange if she didn’t hate her to death. At the thought of what was going to happen tonight, Nanny Gui couldn’t help but feel a little frightened. She didn’t expect Old Madam Shen, who was usually amiable, to think of such a vicious method. After all, if this happened to any unmarried woman, she would suffer for the rest of her life.

The next moment, she saw Ren Wanyun give Caiju a look. Caiju smiled and took a sachet over. She stuffed the sachet into Nanny Gui’s hand and said with a smile, “Thank you in advance, Nanny Gui.”

Nanny Gui grabbed the sachet and realized that it was quite heavy. She immediately smiled and said, “Madam, don’t worry. I definitely won’t disappoint you.”

After saying a few more words, Nanny Gui stood up and left.

“Madam, are you really going to rest here tonight?” Xianglan asked, “After all, it’s close to Fifth Miss’s room.”

“It’s all right.” Ren Wanyun waved her hand. “Tomorrow morning, do whatever I say. Perhaps when the general comes back, his daughter will be long gone. There’s nothing to be afraid of.” She smiled fiercely. “Shen Miao, it’s your fault for getting in my daughter’s way.”
