Chapter 451: Signs of Chaos
Shen Shufeng suddenly realized, and he said, "How is this possible? If the one in the room is fake, then she looks too real. There is no flaw at all."
Shen Wen put a finger on his lips and said, "Don't talk nonsense. She is not the kind of substitute that Lord Shen created. She is a demon. It would be bad if she heard us talking about her so loudly."
Shen Shufeng was so angry at her outrageous gossip that he laughed. He suppressed his anger and said, "Why do you always treat me like a fool? Listen to what you just said. It's okay to talk about the plot in the storybook when you're bored, but don't you see where we are? Is this the time for idle gossip?"
Shen Wen put his finger to his lips again and said, "Don't be so loud, she's coming."
Shen Shufeng was really about to lose his temper this time. He pointed at Shen Wen and was about to curse him, but before he opened his mouth to say anything, a soft little hand patted him on the shoulder.
When Shen Shufeng turned his head, he smelled a burst of fragrance from the little hand. If he had not been preoccupied by the fragrance, he would have punched the person who patted his shoulder.
Shen Shufeng pushed the little hand away and turned to look at the man. He was shocked and couldn't believe it. He turned his head to look at Shen Wen again. There were two identical people in front and behind. His mind was suddenly confused.
Shen Shufeng pointed at the person who appeared behind him and said to Shen Wen, "This? Could this be your older sister or something? Could it be that you gave birth to twins?"
Before Shen Wen could say anything, the person behind him laughed faintly, but the laughter was so eerie and strange that Shen Shufeng was almost scared to death by it.
He didn't believe what Shen Wen had just said, but because of the woman's sinister laugh, Shen Shufeng immediately believed it.
Shen Shufeng felt a chill on his legs, like the evil energy coming from the underworld. He didn't care about anything else and ran quickly behind Shen Wen. Like a small animal with support, he clung to Shen Wen's shoulders and looked at the fake timidly.
Shen Wen was almost shocked. You have to know that Shen Shufeng, a tall man of 1.89 meters, actually acted in such a wretched manner at the critical moment.
Shen Wen pulled his hand away from his shoulder and moved a little further away from him. Then he looked at the woman and said, "I didn't expect you to be so fast at transforming. The one who was fooling Prince Rui in the room hasn't come out yet. You are the little maid who transformed you, right?"
The woman just stared at Shen Wen with a pair of straight eyes. The strange look in her eyes was very aggressive. Shen Shufeng, who was behind Shen Wen, was so scared that he trembled all over after just one look.
Shen Wen snorted coldly, "Looks like you want to kill me. I'd like to see if you have the ability to do it. Come on! Come on!"
After saying that, Shen Wen suddenly took a step forward, his whole body filled with murderous aura.
When the woman in front of him saw Shen Wen take a step forward, she lost some of her momentum and took a step back.
When Shen Wen took another step forward, the woman panicked because she was not sure she could bully Shen Wen.
She was forced to retreat again and again, and finally couldn't help but said: "Don't come over again, and you can't kill me. I am useful to you, girl."
Shen Wen said: "Oh? Then tell me about it."
She said, "Young lady, you will understand from my expression that as long as I, your substitute, am in this palace, you can do whatever you want outside."
Shen Wen said, "It seems you know a lot about me. So who's behind you? Is it Tong Ming or the Fairy Shiya? Or is it some other force?"
The woman lowered her head and refused to answer.
Shen Wen said, "If you don't answer me, I won't believe what you said before. I don't even know your background, so how can I use you with peace of mind?"
After saying that, Shen Wen approached her again and quickly reached out to grab her neck. The woman saw her hand coming towards her and dodged in fear. Fortunately, her movement was one second faster than Shen Wen's and she managed to avoid it.
She was probably so anxious that she was confused. She blurted out, "The divine light on your body is too strong. If you touch me, my true form will be exposed! Please spare my life!"
Shen Wen suddenly realized that the power of the goddess of the South was not deceiving her. However, Shen Wen also had some sense of this. For example, the way she looked at these things at this moment was different from that of mortals like Shen Shufeng. The woman in front of her was originally a piece of wood. She could probably guess who the master behind this little thing was.
Shen Wen waved her hand, and she said, "Are you really unwilling to tell me?"
This time the little thing really gave in. She said, "I was originally a tree spirit from the Tanhuazhai. I was inspired by the Fairy of Stone Cliff to come here to cause trouble for Prince Rui."
Shen Wen suddenly realized.
However, she didn't expect that there were not just one or two demons in Taohuazhai, but many.
Shen Wen sent the woman away and asked them to help him keep his troops in place for the time being.
As soon as the woman left, the surveillance video in Shen Wen's head started to sound a warning. Shen Wen had secretly deployed drones to monitor the Imperial Palace, Duke Ji's Mansion, and the desolate Shen Mansion. He pulled up the video and was immediately surprised.
She first looked at the situation in Shen Hou Mansion. There was nothing unusual inside Shen Hou Mansion, but when the drone was hovering and filming outside, it actually captured the common people outside the mansion. Their behavior was extremely abnormal, with red eyes, ferocious faces and black air surrounding them. At first glance, they all looked unlucky and were destined to step into the underworld.
Shen Wen blinked, rubbed his eyes, and watched the video again.
Shen Wen was in no hurry. He left the video of Marquis Shen's mansion behind and watched the video of the Imperial Palace. This time, the video of the Imperial Palace was shot last night. On the surface, there seemed to be nothing wrong. However, just as he was about to finish watching it, Shen Wen noticed something unusual. In the palaces that the young emperor often visited, whenever the video showed scenes of outdoor gardens, the video would strangely start to snow, like a short circuit. Shen Wen thought he was in front of a modern horror movie, and a chill rose in his heart.
Shen Wen skipped the video of the imperial palace and started watching the video of Duke Ji's mansion.
Just as she had watched the beginning, the drone surveillance warning bell rang again. It turned out that the drone surveillance at the same time had captured an abnormality.
Shen Wen checked it out immediately and was shocked at first sight.
Shen Wen didn't care about anything else and ran out. He took two steps out of the corridor and went into the bamboo forest not far away, and disappeared without a trace.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the Duke Ji Mansion. At this time, in the room of Chu Yanqiu, the second wife of the Duke Ji Mansion, the maids filed out one by one, leaving only the young master and the newly found Miss Shen in the room. The guards such as Chi He who were guarding not far away were relieved that Miss Shen was found back this time, and they left the yard one by one according to the instructions of their young master, leaving the two young couples in the room to reunite in love.
Only Chu Yanqiu and Shen Wen were left in the room, sitting opposite each other. Chu Yanqiu looked at Shen Wen in front of him, examining her from head to toe, inch by inch.
Shen Wen had a happy smile on her face. Without waiting for Chu Yanqiu to ask about his well-being, she walked over and sat beside him. She hugged Chu Yanqiu's arms with both hands and said, "After going through so much, you and I can finally be together again. I heard that you fell seriously ill because of my absence these days. It's all my fault. If I had known you would be so heartbroken, I should have come back quickly to stay by your side."
When Chu Yanqiu heard her say this, he asked, "Really? Are you telling the truth? If you had known I was sick earlier, how would you have come back? Weren't you kidnapped?"
Shen Wen paused and blinked twice quickly. She raised her head and looked at Chu Yanqiu. The two of them looked at each other very closely, almost nose to nose. The atmosphere in this situation was very charming.
Shen Wen took this opportunity to give Chu Yanqiu a light kiss on the face.
Chu Yanqiu touched the place on his face where he was kissed, and he forgot everything in his mind.
Shen Wen took advantage of the situation and pushed him down, and the two of them began something unspeakable.
Chu Yanqiu was like an obedient child, extremely well-behaved under Shen Wen. All he could think about was the time he was with his beloved in the past. He was enveloped in 100% sweetness and tenderness, and he wished he could drown himself in it even at the cost of his life without any regrets.
As Chu Yanqiu was drifting off to sleep, he suddenly heard a loud shout that woke him up from his sleep.
Chu Yanqiu suddenly sat up from the bed and looked around again, but Shen Wen who was sitting opposite him was no longer there.
At this moment, he was pushed by someone, and when he turned around, he saw Shen Wen appear again.
But this Shen Wen seems different from the previous one.
"Chu Yanqiu, are you okay? Are you okay? Tell me."
Chu Yanqiu looked at Shen Wen's mouth opening and closing as if he was talking to him.
Chu Yanqiu grabbed Shen Wen's hand and said, "It wasn't you just now, but it is you now?"
Shen Wen was relieved. She placed her hand on Chu Yanqiu's and looked him in the eye. "Fortunately, you weren't too deeply bewitched by that thing. Did you know that thing just now wanted to kill you?"
Chu Yanqiu hugged Shen Wen in his arms.
Chu Yanqiu said, "What should I do? This kind of drama always happens to me, and I'm too incompetent. I get teased every time. I really don't want to be like this anymore. How about you kill me? That way I won't hurt you."
Shen Wen came out of his arms, wiping the tears from his eyes as he said, "You recognized me, didn't you? Listen to me, if you do this many times, you won't mistake me. Honey, don't you think I'm special? I'm easy to recognize. Think about my uniqueness. Next time! Next time you meet me, you don't need to exchange secret codes or any special marks. Just a glance and you'll know it's me, okay?"
Encouraged by her, Chu Yanqiu gave up his thoughts of suicide. He nodded and said, "Okay! I promise, I'll give it a try, next time! Next time, I'll definitely recognize you at a glance."
Shen Wen helped Chu Yanqiu back to bed, and the two of them lay on the bed, snuggling up to each other, comforting each other.
With Shen Wen's company, Chu Yanqiu recovered from the fatigue of his mental breakdown over the past few days and soon fell asleep.
Shen Wen was still thinking about some things outside, so he calmed down and coaxed his sweetheart to sleep. Then he hurriedly left Chu Yanqiu's house and left Duke Ji's Mansion.
The world outside has changed. Whether it is what is seen outside the Shen Hou Mansion or in the palace, it shows that all the demons and monsters hidden in the dark have emerged. Although no one knows which party is responsible, it is certain that such a strange phenomenon is a sign of chaos in the world.
