Chapter 124: Undefeated God King
In order to completely pin the blame on Shen Jingan, Zhao Baokun was willing to spend any money.
He paid a high price to hire someone who was good at imitating human speech to keep him by his side.
Now, he raised his eyes and looked at the man.
He nodded immediately, and sneered in Shen Jing'an's voice: "Humph, Chai dares to bully me like this by relying on the support of the Third Prince. This time I will just teach him a lesson!"
Zhao Baokun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, feeling that the voice was almost identical to Shen Jingan's.
Not to mention, Chai Bin is not mentally stable at the moment, and with the jade pendant involved, Shen Jingan has to take the blame!

Shen Mansion, Ruixue Courtyard.
Qin Xuerong leaned on a square table with one hand, feeling very upset.
Cuizhu stood carefully behind her, rubbing her temples, not daring to disturb her.
Nanny Wang and Huamei stood aside, not daring to breathe. The atmosphere in the entire Ruixue Courtyard was very depressing.
It took Qin Xuerong a long time to finally cheer up.
"Have you settled the maidservant beside Sister Zhen?"
Manyue and Yuanxi were sentenced to death by the master, and she was trapped in the courtyard, fearing that there would not be enough people to take care of them.
Nanny Wang said quickly, "Two second-class maids have been promoted. They have been with the young lady for many years and are trustworthy."
Qin Xuerong waved her hand and Cuizhu stopped what she was doing.
"Are you sure there were no mistakes with the materials Aunt Wu used to make the sachets?"
Cuizhu knelt down quickly and said, "This matter was handled by me, and I dare not make any mistakes."
Hearing this, Qin Xuerong's eyes became even gloomier: "If that's the case, then how did Shen Shuyi do it?"
She had originally planned very well, intending to kill two birds with one stone. She had Cuizhu fumigate the sachets that Aunt Wu had sent with large amounts of catnip powder.
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the spices in the sachet; the problem is the material.
In order to dispel Shen Shuyi's doubts, she even let her choose first. She had fumigated the materials of each sachet, so no matter which one she chose, it would have a strong smell of catnip.
Catnip is extremely stimulating to cats. She has always known that Princess Hanyang likes cats, so she planned to let Zhen Jie'er lead her to the lake, then use the cat to attack her and make her fall into the water, and finally lead Wang Xiao to rescue her.
In this way, Shen Shuyi's reputation can be ruined, and Yu Jie'er can be successfully freed from the marriage with the Wang family.
Originally, everything was planned well.
But I don’t know what went wrong, and in the end the person who suffered was Sister Zhen!
Hearing this, Cuizhu hurriedly explained: "After the second young lady made her selection, I washed and dried all the other sachets repeatedly, even fearing that they were not safe enough. The third young lady's sachet was specially embroidered by an embroiderer imitating Aunt Wu's technique."
Qin Xuerong pursed her lips and said nothing.
She naturally knew what Cuizhu said. This was exactly what she had planned. She just couldn't understand how Shen Shuyi did it!
Nanny Wang hesitated for a moment and said, "The scent bag on the third young lady has disappeared. If we can find the scent bag, we may be able to find some clues."
Qin Xuerong said with a sullen face: "I know that the sachet is the key, but the sachet was either taken away by Shen Shuyi or dropped into the Jade Lake."
The Jade Lake was originally a living water, and the scent bag was not heavy, so it was unclear whether it was still in the lake. Even if it was still in the lake, how could the Duan Wang family search the Jade Lake for her now that Lin Ge'er had frightened the young grandson?
So this crucial evidence cannot be found at all.
In other words, even if it is found, it cannot be proved that it was that little bastard Shen Shuyi who did it.
After all, too many people had come into contact with the sachet, and she couldn't even put the blame on Aunt Wu.
Nanny Wang immediately said, "Madam, in my opinion, this matter has been settled. What's important is what happens next."
Qin Xuerong nodded and said, "You are right."
In her own family, Aunt Wu has always been seducing the master's heart. In the entire Shen residence, Zhang from the second house is eyeing him covetously. Now, Shen Shuyi has caused unrest in the family.
"Hmph, if she wants to take the dowry back into her own hands, we have to see if she has the ability to do so." Qin Xuerong said coldly.
Nanny Wang bowed and asked, "Madam, have you made any plans?"
Qin Xuerong's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and she said in a cold voice: "Don't worry, I will definitely teach her well. Since she and Zhang are so restless, I will give them a chance to perform well at the old lady's birthday banquet!"
Nanny Wang seemed to understand something, but she was still unsure of Madam's next plan.
But even she had to admit that Shen Shuyi was very powerful.
Ever since she returned home, the lady has not gained any benefit from her.
Huamei probably had the same idea and couldn't help but mutter, "This Second Miss is really a spirit. She stayed in a place like the Jade Buddha Temple for a few years, and now she's so difficult to deal with."
Hearing this, Qin Xuerong's eyes turned cold, and she looked at her sharply: "What did you just say?"
Huamei's heart tightened, and she quickly knelt on the ground, a little anxiously saying: "I...I said...I said that the second young lady was like a spirit, staying in the deep mountains and old forests for several years, and she came back to be so powerful."
Qin Xuerong stared at her, not knowing what she was thinking, her beautiful eyes narrowed tightly.

On the other side, Shen Shuyi felt very comfortable after taking a shower.
After all, life in the Shen Mansion is better.
She held the message sent by Jiang Li in her hand and read it carefully.
It was a thick stack of papers, all of which contained evidence of the shop owners and managers of Zhuangzi's shop.
Shen Shuyi read them one by one and memorized them in his heart.
The silver, money and jewelry in my mother's dowry were easy to take, but these farms and shops were not. Now that I have revealed my intention to take back the dowry, Qin Xuerong will be more or less prepared.
Shen Shu thought for a moment, then looked at Yu Ping and said, "Ask Jiang Li to check every member of the Qin family, including the manor and shop under Qin Xuerong's name."
"Yes."
After Yuping left, Shen Shuyi read all the things and then burned them.
Jinzhu came back from outside, holding an exquisite box in her hand: "Miss, I got the cricket you asked for. My brother said he has a more powerful one, but it will take some time to train. If you need it urgently, he will send it to you tomorrow."
Shen Shuyi took the exquisite rosewood incense box with animal patterns carved on it that Jinzhu handed over. After opening the box, a shiny brown-black cricket was seen inside. There were also some tender green leaves and dried shrimps inside. It was obvious that the cricket was well-fed.
Jinzhu took out another ordinary box and said, "There are three ordinary crickets in this box, none of them are as powerful as the one in your hand. My brother said that the one in your hand is the ever-victorious general, whose name is the Invincible God King!"
Hearing the name, Shen Shuyi couldn't help but smile, and then asked Jinzhu to take out a cricket and try it.
Sure enough, it didn’t take too long, probably just a cup of tea, and the Undefeated God King won.
"Miss, what does she want crickets for?" Jinzhu couldn't help but be curious.
Shen Shuyi looked at her with a calm expression in her eyes: "Lin Ge'er has been under house arrest for a long time, he must be bored, so as a sister, I must show some appreciation."
