Chapter 533 I Underestimated Her
Xiao Mengxi narrowed her eyes and asked coldly, "Who?"
"Shen Jingzhen, the second daughter of Minister Shen and Qin Xuerong, had fallen into the water before and was rescued by the son of Grand Tutor Wang. However, she despised Master Wang Xiao and repaid him with evil, so she had a very bad reputation. Later, she said she was cultivating with her hair untied, but she put on makeup and attracted many men. She was discovered at Madam Shen's birthday banquet..."
"Her? What is her relationship with Feng Bochang?" Xiao Mengxi asked.
Bi He whispered, "According to the report from my servant, the two seem to have some connection."
Xiao Mengxi raised her eyebrows: "Is that so? That's perfect. Since Shen Shuyi has run away, let's use Shen Jingzhen to take his place. Since Qin Xuerong, a poor woman, looks down on my son, I will let her know how cheap her own daughter is!"
Bihe immediately understood what Xiao Mengxi meant and turned around to give orders to her subordinates.
Perhaps because there was something exciting to watch, Xiao Mengxi felt a little better.
But when I thought about Shen Shuyi disappearing, I felt unhappy.
She turned her head and glanced at the maid, and asked in a deep voice: "How did Shen Shuyi run away?"
The maid said tremblingly: "There were two people who looked like maids. They knocked out Nanny Wang and several other sisters, and..."
"And what?"
"And the Changning County Lady doesn't seem to have fainted from the Chinese medicine at all."
"What did you say?" Xiao Mengxi narrowed her eyes.
You know, although she deliberately invited Shen Shuyi to drink tea and wine, there was no drug in the tea and wine. The real drug powder was placed in the charcoal brazier used for heating in Fengbo Pavilion.
As it heated and burned, the drug spread into the air.
In addition, Fengbo Pavilion was surrounded by gauze curtains, so she had already inhaled the drug from the moment she stepped in there.
How could she be okay?
The maid said nervously, "It's true. I saw with my own eyes that Changning County Lady pulled out a hairpin and stabbed it into Nanny Wang's neck, and then she climbed up from the ground."
Xiao Mengxi sneered: "Oh, interesting, I underestimated her."
The group did not dare to say anything. After a while, Xiao Mengxi looked at Bihe and said slowly, "Forget it. It was her ability to escape. Now that it has been replaced by Shen Jingzhen, don't forget to send a message to Shen Qinshi."
"I understand." Bihe agreed.
After the instructions were completed, Bihe followed Xiao Mengxi and whispered, "Princess, if this person was replaced by Shen Jingzhen, then the prince..."
Xiao Mengxi sneered, "She is shameless and vain. She wants to climb into Rui'er's bed. Does she expect me to help Rui'er marry her?"
Bi He: "I understand."

At this moment, inside the Plum Garden.
The group admired the plum blossoms, drank wine, and made tea around the stove. Although Xiao Mengxi did not show up all the time, she prepared many programs for the men and women.
Reciting poems, painting, passing flowers while beating drums, and having conversations across the screen, it is so lively.
The atmosphere was very tense at the moment and Qin Xuerong was itching to get involved. Fortunately, she was not disappointed. She didn't have to wait too long before she received the news from the maid in the mansion whom she had bribed before.
It's said that it's done.
Qin Xuerong's eyes lit up, and she even became much more eager in chatting with the woman next to her, with the corners of her mouth almost reaching her ears.
Hahaha, Shen Shuyi.
Your retribution has finally come!
You have harmed me and Sister Yu to this extent, I'm sure you never thought that you would end up like this!
Qin Xuerong felt extremely happy, and the worry that had been hanging in her heart finally settled down.
"The plum blossoms are so beautiful today. Princess, you really opened my eyes." Qin Xuerong responded happily.
When others saw her like this, they had different thoughts.
After all, Shen Jingyu had just gotten into trouble, and everyone knew about it. But now Qin Xuerong appeared in Guining County Lord's Mansion as if nothing had happened. It was really...
Zhao Xueqing's mother smiled and said, "Mrs. Shen is really in a good mood. She is quite interested in appreciating plum blossoms at this time of year."
Mrs. Zhao's words were ambiguous, which only made Qin Xuerong's smile froze a little.
Knowing that she was referring to Shen Jingyu's plan being ruined, Qin Xuerong was as if her tail had been stepped on, and said: "Mrs. Zhao has been doing really well recently. You were able to get through that day, so my Shen family has many descendants, so why should we worry about not having a chance to get through?"
Mrs. Zhao sneered.
Is Qin Xuerong hinting that she has two sons, Shen Jingan and Shen Jinglin?
"Has Madam Shen's youngest son been found? I heard that there is a young man in the Shen Ce Army who looks very similar to the young master of the Shen family, but he seems to have a broken leg and violated military regulations, so he was kicked out of the barracks."
This one sentence made Qin Xuerong's face turn pale again.
That’s right, she had just received the news two days ago, saying that Lin Ge’er had his two hands crippled and was driven out of the military camp.
But she didn't believe it. As long as she didn't see the person, she would never believe that it was her brother Lin...
Her brother Lin has been very smart since he was young, he definitely won’t do that!
Mrs. Zhao raised the corners of her lips, retracted her gaze, and played with a red plum blossom in her hand, seeming to be in a good mood.
No, the most important thing right now is to deal with Shen Shuyi. We must not let this woman be distracted.
Knowing that she and Shen Shuyi were of the same mind, Qin Xuerong squeezed out a few words from between her teeth: "Mrs. Zhao had better hope that your niece will have the same good luck as you."
"What do you mean?" Zhao Dehai's wife turned pale and subconsciously looked at Zhao Xueqing beside her.
Zhao Xueqing gently squeezed her hand: "Mom, it's okay, cousin Shuyi was just invited by the princess, don't be scared by her."
Qin Xuerong sneered, "Really? Maybe your cousin will soon get married and have a happy event!"
After saying that, Qin Xuerong did not delay any longer and secretly sent someone to deliver a message to Shen Meiru.
Shen Meiru was in a daze when she received the news.
Did you really succeed?
Was Shen Shuyi really sent to the bed of the prince of the Princess's Mansion?
This news made her feel indescribable unreality. She couldn't believe that Shen Shuyi, who was so resourceful, would end up like this.
"Yes, that's right. This is the Princess's Mansion..."
Princess Guining is a genuine royal blood relative and has a close relationship with the current emperor. How can she be compared to Princess Shen Shuyi who relies on temporarily deceiving the empress dowager?
Being favored by Princess Guining and now staying in the Princess's residence, it seems that Shen Shuyi has no chance of escaping.
Shen Meiru withdrew her thoughts, and after a moment of confusion, she felt a sense of satisfaction.
She couldn't wait to see if her second sister was still as arrogant as before.
This is really... itchy...
Shen Meiru pressed the wound again to make sure that the blood was still oozing out, then rolled twice in the snow, ruffled her hair a little, and then staggered back to the plum garden.
"Help! There's an assassin! Help!!!"
Shen Meiru staggered into the plum garden, her little face tearful, as if something was chasing her.
