Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 523

The night was as cold as water, Shen Wanyu lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep no matter what.In three days' time, he will leave for Xifeng country. Chu Mohan told him early this morning that he had some matters to deal with and would not be back in the next few days.But before leaving, he will rush back.

Looking at the emptiness around her, she sighed inwardly.This habit is really a terrible thing. I thought it was okay if he wasn't around.After all, when they were raising their babies, the two of them got together less and separated more.I haven't survived yet, but today he misses him very much.

Shen Wanyu really couldn't fall asleep, so she simply opened it and was sat up by you.There was only one glazed lamp in the room, and the light was dim but soft.She pursed her lips, her mouth was a little dry.

She glanced at the teapot on the table, moved and got out of bed.I poured myself a glass of water and drank it in a few sips.

Qiuzhu, who was guarding the outer room, heard the voice in the room, and she opened her eyes immediately after she was in a light sleep.He grabbed the clothes on the side and put them on, then opened the curtain of the inner room and walked in.

"Miss, why haven't you slept yet, is there something wrong?"

Ever since they found out that Shen Wanyu was pregnant again, the maids took turns keeping vigil in the outer room every day.It's just to prevent her from having something to do, and to solve it quickly.

"No, just couldn't sleep and got thirsty and got out of bed to drink some water."

The corner of Shen Wanyu's mouth twitched, she had already given birth to a child.Why were they still so nervous, she felt a little embarrassed.

Seeing that Shen Wanyu's face was ruddy, Qiu Zhu was relieved.She walked aside, picked up a cloak and put it on her body, and said softly.

"Miss can't sleep, why don't I accompany you outside for a walk?"

Shen Wanyu looked at the closed window and shook her head.Although it is summer now, it is still a little cold at night.

"No, why don't you sleep with me tonight. I don't want to sleep alone, let's chat."

For some reason, she just didn't want to live alone today.I don't know why, I feel a little annoyed.

Qiuzhu frowned, and hesitated.Although she knew that the young lady never regarded them as servants, it can be said that the relationship was similar to that of sisters.But after all, one is the master and the other is the servant, so it is inappropriate for them to sleep together.

"Qiu Zhu." Shen Wanyu naturally knew her scruples, she looked at her pitifully.

Facing such pitiful eyes, Qiu Zhu couldn't say any words of rejection at all.He could only bite the bullet and nodded in agreement, the corners of the young lady's mouth curled up unconsciously when she saw how happy the young lady was.

Shen Wanyu looked at the bed and thought for a while.Turning around, he hugged the quilt on the bed in his arms, and walked to Qiu Zhu's side.

"Come on, I'll sleep with you in the outer room tonight."

Qiuzhu was taken aback when he heard the words, but thought that although the bed in the outer room was not as good as the lady's, it was not bad.Nodding her head, she took the quilt from Shen Wanyu's hand.

Qiuzhu made the bed, and looked back at the young lady who was lazily sitting on the chair beside her.

"Miss, the pavement has been laid, let's rest."

Shen Wanyu nodded, took off the cloak and climbed onto the bed.Lying inside, Qiuzhu also lay outside.

It was the first time that the master and the servant slept on the same bed, and Shen Wanyu couldn't sleep so they chatted.After talking for an unknown amount of time, Shen Wanyu gradually became confused.Eyelids are getting heavy, and Qiuzhu is also a little sleepy.

"Miss, go to sleep."

Shen Wanyu unconsciously gave a sigh of grace, turned over and fell asleep.

Shen Wanyu slept very restlessly, her brows were tightly frowned.She always felt that her chest was stuffy and her breathing was difficult and uncomfortable.She slowly opened her eyes, and saw that Qiuzhu beside her was still not awake.

She moved her body, just about to stretch out her hand to wake Qiuzhu up.An extremely soft sound came to her ears, and her eyes immediately became clear.His eyes sank, and a cold light flashed across his eyes.

She narrowed her eyes and stared straight at the inner room.Taking a breath, it seemed that someone had sneaked into her house.I just don't know what the purpose is, is it to steal something or want her life?
Qiuzhu has always been a light sleeper, so her movements are so big.She didn't respond at all. It seemed that she had been drugged.Even the whole Hou Mansion was quiet, and they didn't notice anyone sneaking into Yushui.

They can't count on it, and it seems that they can only rely on themselves.She reached out to caress her stomach, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Baby, it seems that someone still wants your mother's life. Today, we can only rely on ourselves."

Because it is in my own house, and it is time to rest at night.Shen Wanyu didn't have any poison or silver needles on her body at all, she felt a little headache thinking about how to deal with it later.

It is definitely not easy for these people to avoid everyone in the Hou Mansion and sneak in without alarming anyone.Her eyes quickly swept around the outer room, and finally settled on a small box.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly. Inside the box were the glazed stones that Chu Mohan bought for her from a businessman last time.That thing is hard enough to be used as a concealed weapon just right.

Shen Wanyu moved lightly, got out of bed and hid herself in the darkness.She squinted her eyes, watching the curtains in the inner room shake.Two masked men in black came out, and she hid behind the cabinet and stared at them.Flipping his palm, four glazed stones appeared in his palm.

"People are not here, what should I do?"

One of the taller men in black spoke in a cold voice, but his brows were tightly frowned.

"Everyone in the Hou's mansion has been stunned by us. Even if this person is not in the room, he will not leave the Hou's mansion. Let's look carefully, and we must not miss it."

Shen Wanyu listened to the conversation between the two, and the voices of the two were not from Da Kun.Hearing this accent, she looked a bit like someone from Beimu Country, she smiled coldly in her heart.It seems that Princess Ziyue still didn't give up, she didn't go to the tea party.She really sent someone to assassinate her.

Shen Wanyu's eyes were filled with coldness and killing intent, and she clenched the glazed stone tightly in her hands.Just as he was about to let go and shoot towards the dead spots of the two, he saw two silver lights flashing past.The two men in black didn't even have a chance to react, they fell to the ground.

Shen Wanyu's brows furrowed, and her eyes swept sharply towards the opened door.Under the moonlight, a slender figure appeared at the door of the room, dressed in a red robe that was both enchanting and coquettish.

"Princess, it's all right now. You can come out now."

Shen Wanyu hid in the dark, her eyes flickering.After a moment of silence, she slowly walked out from behind the cabinet and said coldly.

"Who are you?"
