After a tragic death and rebirth, I became the regent's favorite
Chapter 3 Asking for trouble
"Mother, what did the third sister tell you?"
She remembered that in her previous life, Shen Lian'er told her parents that she insisted on climbing the rockery and thus missed a step and fell down.
"Lian'er said that you took her to climb the rockery, and she accidentally stepped on empty air and fell down. Yoyo, don't be so naughty next time."
Shen Moyu used to love his half sister, so Mo Wushuang also had a good impression of her and believed everything she said. Now thinking about it, it was really stupid.
"I know, mother. I won't do it again."
I wouldn't be so stupid as to trust jackals, tigers and leopards.
Shen Moyu curled up in Mo Wushuang's arms for a long time and was unwilling to let go until she fell into a deep sleep. That night, she slept very peacefully in her mother's arms.
The next day.
When Shen Moyou woke up, only Li Yue was by her side. Seeing her wake up, a smile appeared on her fair face. "Miss, you are finally awake. You fell asleep in Madam's arms last night. Madam was so scared that she asked the doctor to come back to make sure you were okay before she felt relieved."
Shen Moyou smiled back and let Liyue help her wash and dress. When they were sitting at the table to have breakfast, Liyue came forward and said, "Miss, Shengxia said there was some movement over at Furong Courtyard."
"Let Shengxia come in."
Shen Moyu sipped the rice porridge in small sips, waiting for Shengxia thoughtfully.
"Miss, last night Aunt Fang's personal maid Qingzhu went out of Furong Courtyard to meet someone."
Shengxia's words made Shen Moyou smile obscurely. He reached out and took a tea egg and peeled it. "Is it the Taoist priest that my father invited into the mansion?"
Shengxia was surprised, "How did you know that, young lady?"
Shen Moyou didn't answer, but asked, "Do you know what Qingzhu talked about with that Taoist priest?"
"The people sent to Furong Courtyard didn't dare to get too close for fear of being discovered, but the Taoist priest seemed to have given Qingzhu a packet of medicinal powder."
"Powder?"
Drugged!
By the way, around this time in the previous life, Shen Moyu’s grandmother, Old Madam Shen, suddenly became seriously ill. No matter how many famous doctors she visited, none of them worked. Later, Shen Lian’er took the initiative to take care of her, and in less than three days, Old Madam Shen recovered. Coincidentally, the Taoist priest told Old Madam Shen that Shen Lian’er was her benefactor, and that with her serving her in the future, she would surely live a long life.
Old Madam Shen has never liked this illegitimate granddaughter, but she values her very much because of this matter. Shen Moyu doesn't believe that there is no trick involved.
"Find a way to change her medicine, and keep a close eye on that Taoist priest. I want to know what they are going to do. If you don't have enough manpower, go to the Mo family to find my brother, and he will give you people."
Mo Xinchen, the young man of the Mo family, was one of the few people in his previous life who opposed her marrying Xiao Ting and instead wanted her to have a good relationship with the Regent Xiao Linchuan.
He seemed like an outlier in the Mo family, always keeping people at a distance. It was not until the end that Shen Moyu realized that Mo Xinchen was truly caring about her. Mo Xinchen had long known that Regent Xiao Linchuan was in love with her and had been silently guarding her behind her.
But by the time she knew it, it was too late.
"Miss, do you really not need to tell the lady?"
Li Yue was a little worried about her own young lady. There was already a master and a mistress in the mansion, so why did she have to go so far away?
Shen Moyou seemed to know what Li Yue was thinking, and smiled at her soothingly, "It's easy to alert the enemy if you say it now, wouldn't it be better if there is solid evidence?"
Hibiscus Courtyard.
"Lian'er, why don't you go to the Rose Courtyard to accompany your elder sister today?"
The person who spoke was Shen Lian'er's biological mother, Fang Xueqing, who was born with a delicate and beautiful appearance. Shen Lian'er's delicate demeanor was very similar to that of Fang.
Seeing that it was her mother, Shen Lian'er pouted and said, "I don't want to go. Yesterday, my elder sister was very mean to me in front of so many servants and even said that I pushed her off the rockery."
Fang Xueqing's expression changed, and she reached out to hold Shen Lian'er's hand tightly, "Did Shen Moyou really say that?"
"Mom, you hurt me."
Shen Lian'er struggled with a grim face. Fang Xueqing realized it later and let her go, apologetically saying, "I'm sorry Lian'er, but logically speaking, you have completely gained Shen Moyu's trust. She loves you so much, this shouldn't happen."
"Later, my eldest sister saw me crying and said it was just a joke, but mom, her tone didn't sound like a joke at all."
Shen Lian'er curled her lips in disdain, "Shen Moyou is just a straw bag, she just got lucky and got reincarnated. Mother, how long do I have to curry favor with her?"
"Lian'er, just bear with it for a few more days. I promise you that you will soon be the most distinguished lady in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Shen Moyou is not even worthy of carrying my Lian'er's shoes."
Fang Xueqing looked at her daughter lovingly. She had worked her way up from a prostitute to where she is today, and she would never allow anyone to stand in her way.
"I listen to my mother."
Shen Lian'er hugged Fang Xueqing's waist and rubbed it. Her mother was the most powerful person in the world. There was nothing she couldn't do once she promised.
Coming out of Shen Lian'er's room, Fang Xueqing's pretty face was tinged with a bit of viciousness, "Qingzhu, how is the matter going?"
Qing Zhu, who was called, stepped forward and said carefully, "He only gave me the poison, and said that you have to ask him for the antidote in person."
The sound of a slap rang out, and Qingzhu's left cheek quickly became red and swollen. Fang Xueqing looked gloomy, "You are useless. You can't even handle a small matter."
"It is my fault, please forgive me, Auntie."
Qingzhu covered her face, not daring to show any sign of grievance. Outsiders thought that Aunt Fang and her daughter were kind-hearted, and it would be easy to work under them. Only people in Furong Courtyard knew that Aunt Fang was a thoughtful person, and one had to be extremely careful when working, otherwise one would die without knowing how.
Fang Xueqing didn't want to cause any trouble, so she said coldly, "Give the medicine to the old lady first, and I'll find a way to get the antidote later."
"Yes, slave, I'll do it now."
……
Summer had just passed, and it was the most comfortable time. Shen Moyu was lying on a rocking chair in the yard, basking in the moonlight with his eyes closed. Beside him, Li Yue was holding a medical classic in her hands, reading it seriously.
"What an interesting little girl. Last time she went to bed she was holding a storybook to help her sleep, but now she's reading a medical book?"
Two people stood quietly on the roof, both dressed in black. The one on the left was obviously the most respected, wearing a black brocade robe, a jade crown to hold his hair, cold eyebrows, dark eyes, a high nose bridge, and slightly red lips of moderate thickness. His whole face looked like a work of Nuwa showing off her skills.
"My Lord, the things are neither in the Shen Family Ancestral Hall nor in Shen Lingfeng's study."
The person who spoke deliberately lowered his voice, for fear of alarming the beauty in the courtyard and causing trouble.
"Since you're not here, let's go."
The man didn't respond, his attention was on the graceful figure swaying in the yard.
Bai Zhu glanced at the wooden chair that was swaying gently in the courtyard and said in surprise, "For such a small matter as looking for something, the master didn't have to come in person. He just wanted to see Miss Shen, so why didn't you..."
Before Bai Zhu could finish his words, he was interrupted by the man, "The little girl only has Xiao Ting in her eyes and heart, why should I make myself unhappy?"
At the same time, Shen Moyu in the yard suddenly opened her eyes and looked towards the roof, startling Li Yue. "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Moyou pointed to the roof and said, "There was someone there just now."
