Chapter 270 Luanfeng
The next day, in the afternoon, Shen Shuyi returned to the Shen Mansion.
Qin Xuerong heaved a sigh of relief after hearing the news, and immediately sent someone to invite Shen Jingyu to Ruixueyuan.
"Sister Yu, should we proceed as planned? Fortunately, Shen Shuyi came back today. Otherwise, if we delay any further, your father would probably ask for another Heavenly Master."
Qin Xuerong looked at her daughter in front of her, somewhat undecided.
Moreover, even if she could make up her mind, she couldn't leave the house now, and she had no confidants at hand, so she had to rely on Shen Jingyu to make the decision.
She has been looking forward to this day for a long time since she made this plan.
Unexpectedly, when the time came, Shen Shuyi actually went to Qingyuan Marquis Mansion. She was so worried that she couldn't sleep all night, fearing that her careful planning would fail in the end.
Shen Jingyu said nothing, and no one knew what she was thinking.
"Sister Yu, why don't you speak?" Qin Xuerong asked.
Shen Jingyu's eyelashes trembled slightly. She stood up and walked to the window, and said slowly: "I just think that the old lady of Qingyuan Marquis's Mansion is too sick by coincidence."
She sent people to keep an eye on the place for a long time last night, but unfortunately, although the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion was in decline, it was heavily guarded, so she was unable to find out any news from the mansion.
In addition, she also sent people to keep an eye on Madam Zhao's condition. In the past two days, there was indeed a doctor who was often used in the Marquis' Mansion coming in and out. She sent someone to ask the doctor, and it was confirmed that Madam Zhao did catch a cold and had a fever.
However, she still felt that it was too coincidental...
Hearing this, Qin Xuerong did not dare to speak up to persuade him rashly. After all, Shen Shuyi was indeed very powerful. After suffering several losses, she did not dare to be careless again.
"Baoqin, send someone to find someone else to test Taixu."
"Yes."
After Taixu was warned by Shen Shuyi, he dared not disobey. In addition, because he did not see anything extraordinary in Shen Jingyu when he met her that day, he naturally did not dare to offend Shen Shuyi.
The visitor didn't find out anything, so he went back to report.
Shen Jingyu thought for a while, and under Qin Xuerong's earnest gaze, she said gently: "Mom, don't worry, tomorrow's plan will remain the same."
Hearing this, Qin Xuerong finally smiled, and her heart, which had been hanging in the air, was finally at ease.
If Jingyu says there is no problem, then I believe there must be no problem.
She had been toyed with by that bastard Shen Shuyi for so long, and finally it was her turn to fall into his hands!

The next day, Shen Jingchuan returned from court, and there was a Taoist priest with an air of immortality beside him.
The Taoist priest wore a jade crown and held a whisk in his hand. Two Taoist children followed him, each carrying a box in their hands.
"Master Taixu, please." Shen Jingchuan was quite respectful. Then he asked someone to invite everyone in the mansion to the front yard.
Soon, people from the second house, including Aunt Wu, Aunt Han and others arrived one after another.
Soon after, Shen Jingan, Shen Jinglin, Shen Qinghuan and other descendants were also invited over.
Afterwards, Mrs. Shen, supported by Aunt Qiulian and wearing a headband on her head, slowly appeared.
Qin Xuerong looked at the group of people in the yard and searched the crowd with her eyes.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Shen Shuyi walking slowly towards him in a light blue Shu brocade dress.
After not seeing her for a few days, she seemed to have grown up a little. From far away, one could clearly see her coldness and brilliance.
Qin Xuerong was unwilling to accept it. Why should she, a bastard, be given such a position?
But it was clear that at this moment the girl only had a simple snake bun on her head and wore a golden hairpin with a phoenix holding a pearl on her head, which made everything around her pale in comparison and gave her an air of indescribable nobility.
Qin Xuerong sneered in her heart, what a spirit!
Otherwise, how could he have such tolerance and character after being tortured in the Jade Buddha Temple for so many years?
Shen Jingyu arrived a little later. After seeing Taixu and Shen Jingchuan, she took the initiative to speak: "Father, is this the Taoist priest you mentioned?"
"That's right, I'm not an expert on this, but I can't help but worry that there might be something unclean in the mansion, so I asked the Taoist priest to come and take a look." Shen Jingchuan spoke in a deep voice with a serious expression.
Taixu recognized Shen Jingyu at a glance, but his superb acting skills and calm expression prevented others from noticing any clues.
Shen Jingyu was very satisfied with this and just said, "In that case, I'll have to trouble the Heavenly Master."
Shen Shuyi's expression remained unchanged as he watched the scene coldly.
Taixu immediately asked the Taoist boy to prepare the incense table. The moment he turned around, he caught a glimpse of Shen Shuyi among the crowd and his heart sank.
Taixu swallowed his saliva, met those cold and indifferent eyes, and subconsciously felt a hint of fear.
In a few moments, the long table was ready, covered with a bright yellow tablecloth, and equipped with incense burners, peach wood swords, yellow talisman paper, and cinnabar.
There were two jugs of wine in the corner.
"Master, please help me see if there is anything unclean in this house?" Shen Jingchuan said respectfully.
"Don't worry, Lord Shen. I will do my best."
Old Madam Shen was supported by someone and stood aside, her eyes full of sincerity.
Not long after, Taixu lit the incense burner, picked up the peach wood sword, first took a few gulps of wine, then held the wine in his mouth and spit it onto the peach wood sword with a "puff".
"The Big Dipper, the bright lamp that destroys evil, subdues demons and monsters, and orders them to disband!"
Taixu held one hand with his fingers pinched together in front of him, and held a peach wood sword in the other hand. He closed his eyes and muttered something.
As he finished speaking, white smoke instantly rose around the long desk.
Taixu opened his eyes and started turning around in circles, walking in a way that others couldn't understand, still muttering something.
Taixu's eyes swept across the crowd, and when his gaze fell on Shen Shuyi, his eyes narrowed slightly, but his heart was greatly shocked.
The girl was surrounded by golden light, and in the sky above her head, there were two phoenixes entwined.
One phoenix was completely black, emitting a dark deathly aura all over its body, like a ball of black fog, while the other phoenix was emitting a red-gold light. At this moment, it raised its head, screamed, and flapped its wings to fly.
One gold and one black, both gathered around the girl, seemingly fighting.
Taixu was shocked, he felt he had never seen such a scene before.
The black phoenix was full of deathly aura. According to the method of physiognomy, those who have a phoenix have an indescribably precious life. But if this phoenix was black, it proved that the luck was not enough. Although one had the life of a phoenix, it would be difficult for him to have a good end.
If the phoenix is golden, the brighter the light, the stronger the luck of this person is. She is the Phoenix Girl destined by heaven and will rule the world.
But now, these two phoenixes are fighting each other, what does this mean?
Taixu didn't dare to look closely, fearing that someone would discover something, but she looked several times and couldn't see any sign of death from Shen Shuyi. Instead, the two phoenixes, one black and one gold, seemed to be gradually merging into one.
The blended part was neither black nor gold, but a fiery red.
Taixu wanted to look again, but his eyes felt extremely painful.
He had not practiced enough to understand the mystery, so he had to quickly look away.
Taixu suppressed the shock in his heart and looked towards the Shen Mansion again.
There was nothing unusual about the people in the hall. Although most of them looked noble, this was not uncommon in the capital city which was filled with dignitaries.
Taixu was about to retract his gaze when his eyes fell on a corner of the Shen Mansion and paused again. He felt the pain in his eyes deepened again, and the intense burning sensation made it almost impossible for him to open his eyes.
