Soon Queen Guo found the right opportunity to put the brain-eating worm into the emperor's ear.
The man was sleeping soundly at night, and Queen Guo gently shook the brain-eating worm she got from Wen Yuan into his ear.
The gentle movement of the brain-eating insect did not wake the emperor up. After seeing the insect get into the ear of the person next to her pillow, Queen Guo fell asleep contentedly.
When the emperor and empress got up the next day, Empress Guo didn't find anything wrong with the emperor. She waited on the emperor to wash up, and then the man went to the morning court as usual.
"Why is it different from what Princess Xianyang said...it's no different than usual."
On the other side, the brain-eating worms raised in Wen Yuan's bowl seemed to feel something. They curled up their fat bodies in the bowl. If you didn't look carefully, you would think they were black beans.
"It seems that the queen has put the brain-eating worm into Wen Yunren's ear. I have connected this worm and that worm with magic. While I control this worm, the brain-eating worm in Wen Yunren's head The worm will react accordingly."
As he spoke, Wen Yuan gave it a try, lowered his head and muttered a few words that Shen Huaiyan didn't understand next to the insect.
She waved her hand, and the scene of Wen Yunren at this moment appeared in front of her. She saw the man smashing her beloved vase like a zombie.
Seeing this scene, Wen Yuan secretly rejoiced, "Successful."
But her approach was not approved by Shen Huaiyan. The man didn't say anything when he saw Wen Yuan's almost crazy look, but quietly left the room.
Wen Yuan was completely focused on his brain-eating worm at the moment and didn't even notice the man's abnormality.
After leaving the room, Shen Huaiyan returned to his residence alone. When he entered the room, he happened to bump into the maid who had just cleaned up the room and came out of it.
The water in the girl's hand suddenly splashed all over Shen Huaiyan's body, and the basin also fell to the ground. The loud noise attracted the attention of other waiters passing by.
Seeing that Shen Huaiyan was about to speak, the girl immediately knelt on the ground and admitted her mistake, "You deserve to be damned if I bumped into Mr. Shen. I will go down to receive the punishment. I hope Mr. Shen will be kind and not blame me for my unintentional mistake."
Seeing that she was so scared that her voice was trembling, Shen Huaiyan called the girl up from the ground, "It's okay, I'll just go change my clothes. You can go down."
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Chen, for your kindness. Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your kindness." The maid picked up the basin and ran away in a hurry.
For some reason, from that day on, Shen Huaiyan always met this maid in the yard where he lived. After observing for a period of time, he found that this girl was a simple and kind-hearted person.
One day, the girl was watering the flowers in the yard when Shen Huaiyan called her over, "What's your name?"
"My name is Yishu."
Yi Shu...this name sounds quite interesting.
Seeing that she was very scared, Shen Huaiyan helped her up from the ground, "I won't eat you, why are you so nervous? Have you just come to work here?"
"This slave has been working here for a long time. Mr. Shen only noticed it these days." Yi Shu put down the things in her hands and stood respectfully beside Shen Huaiyan.
Seeing his submissive look, Shen Huaiyan began to recall whether he was usually very vicious towards these maids? Why are you so afraid of yourself?
But it's not that the maids are afraid, it's just that there are many rules in Wanmoyuan, especially Shen Huaiyan is Wen Yuan's man, so they don't dare to make any mistakes in the process of serving.
"You don't have to be so afraid of me. I want to talk to someone today. I see that you are the most attentive to what you do, so I ask you these questions."
His explanation made Yi Shu breathe a sigh of relief, "I see, I saw Mr. Shen that you were in a bad mood recently, but what's bothering you?"
And recently... Shen Huaiyan said he was ill and didn't even go to the Demon Palace to find Wen Yuan.
Some waiters were already speculating that there was something wrong between the two, but no one dared to say it directly.
"Well, I found that the people I have been getting along with are changing in a bad direction, but I don't know how to stop it."
Hearing what he said, Yi Shu's mood also dropped. She shouldn't have commented on her master's affairs, but since Mr. Shen has told her, she should be able to express her own views...
"My slave thinks that if a person was originally very good, but suddenly becomes like this, it may be due to some stimulation, or the surrounding environment has changed. If this person has been going the wrong way... then... then... Mr. Shen, this is not your business."
Her words didn't bring much help to Shen Huaiyan, but it felt good to have someone beside her to talk to like now.
Shen Huaiyan rarely smiled in front of the waiter. People around him who saw this scene were secretly guessing whether something unknown happened to Shen Huaiyan and Yi Shu.
This matter quickly reached Wen Yuan's ears, but Wen Yuan had been tinkering with her brain-eating insects recently and didn't care about it at all, "Huaiyan has a sense of self, how could he be interested in a maid? Stop spreading rumors based on rumors."
The person involved didn't care, and no one around him took it to heart either.
However, Wen Yuan took some time to think about it later and found that Shen Huaiyan's recent visits to him were so short that he could count them on his hands.
She took the initiative to go to the place where Shen Huaiyan lived to look for him, but she saw the man chatting happily with a maid. This made Wen Yuan couldn't help but think of what the people around her told her before.
The two of them were just talking and laughing and didn't notice anyone coming. Wen Yuan stood there and watched for a long time, and finally Yi Shu jumped up from the stool after seeing Wen Yuan.
Wen Yuan walked in with a light smile on his face. The waiters around him quickly dispersed when they saw Wen Yuan's smile hiding a knife. Only Yi Shu wanted to leave but couldn't. Wouldn't it look like she felt guilty if she left now?
Shen Huaiyan didn't think much about it, "Ah Yuan, you're here. Why didn't you say anything when you came? Sit down."
He personally poured tea for Wen Yuan, but Wen Yuan made no move. She just looked at Yi Shu with expressions on her face, and finally opened her red lips coldly, "This maid is very unfamiliar. Did she come to serve you recently?"
"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, this servant's name is Yi Shu, and she is the first batch to come to this courtyard to serve Mr. Shen." Her eyes were clear without any complicated emotions, which satisfied Wen Yuan.
The three of them were in a stalemate for a long time. Wen Yuan put the things he brought on the table and prepared to leave.
If it was normal, Shen Huaiyan would definitely pester him to stay with him for a while longer, but today he said nothing and just watched Wen Yuan send her away calmly.
Standing at the door, Wen Yuan turned to look at the door that seemed to completely separate her from Shen Huaiyan, and called Xuan Yuan who was waiting outside, "Help me monitor the woman named Yi Shu."
Shen Huaiyan opened the things Wen Yuan brought. They were full of candied snacks that he liked to eat, and a pack of good tea that Wen Yuan had recently received. It was sent by Dragon Palace. Wen Yuan didn't even want to drink it before he gave it to Shen Huaiyan. .
Originally, she was thinking about him, but she didn't expect that he seemed like a normal person.
Xuan Yuan was unhappy when he saw such a scene, but he couldn't rush forward and punch Shen Huaiyan in the face.
After returning to Wanmoyuan, Chunhua noticed something was wrong with Wen Yuan. She moved everyone around her away, and only the two sisters were left in the huge palace. "Miss, what's wrong?"
After Wen Yuan told Chunhua what happened at Shen Huaiyan's place today, she looked a little unconvinced, but then she thought of a way for Wen Yuan, "Young Master Huaiyan is not one of those men who is said to be moved by strange things. It's better for the young lady to go and ask him." It’s clear, neither of you are coy people.”
Having said that, Wen Yuan really didn't want to directly ask Shen Huaiyan what he was thinking, as this would make her look stingy.
"Miss, go and ask. Stop thinking nonsense. It's not good for your health. Lin'er can walk now. We haven't seen her for a long time. Why don't we go now?"
When Lin'er was mentioned, Wen Yuan's expression became much gentler. She nodded and followed Chunhua to Quan's palace, where she happened to see Quan playing with the child.
"What a rare guest, our commander-in-chief can still remember Lin'er." Lin'er is still not very steady and needs someone to support her from behind, but as soon as she sees Wen Yuan, she runs in the direction of Wen Yuan. This is amazing. Rang Quan, the old father, was jealous, "You kid, she only came to see you once in such a long time, and you are still so close to her, I'm so angry."
However, although Wen Yuan was smiling, the melancholy look in his eyes could be seen at a glance. He asked someone to take the child away, while he pulled Wen Yuan over and sat down, "What's the matter? Look at you looking so worried. You look miserable, who provoked you?"
"It's not all Mr. Shen." Before Wen Yuan could say anything, Chunhua spoke up first to express her grievances.
Shen Huaiyan? Quan has heard some rumors recently, is it possible that they are all true?
"What's going on? Tell me clearly. What happened to Shen Huaiyan? Is it like what those people said?"
Wen Yuan hesitated, "I don't know what to say. Today I brought something to look for Huaiyan, but as soon as I entered, I saw him chatting happily with a maid. Normally he would not be so close to the maids. .”
I thought it was something, but I didn't expect to see Shen Huaiyan talking and laughing with the maid. Quan comforted him: "Maybe they just talked about some funny things. Don't you often do this? Don't think too much."
"But the time he comes to see me in the Demon Palace has become shorter. Every time he says that he is not feeling well and cannot come to see me. But today I went to where he lives and found that he is in good spirits... I think he is doing it on purpose. Avoid me."
Hearing what she said, Quan also felt that something was wrong. Before, Shen Huaiyan wanted to accompany Wen Yuan every day. He felt that there were too many people in the Demon Palace and felt uncomfortable, so he lived outside. However, he still went to and from the Demon Palace very frequently. Recently, indeed, Didn’t see him much.
