Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 80
Walking through the small garden in the backyard, from a distance, I saw the second aunt in a light gray purple long dress with dark patterns of lotus, walking over with the support of two maids.Originally, she wanted to avoid her and go around by another path.It's a pity that some people just want to hinder her eyes.

"Miss, where are you going?"

The second aunt walked towards Shen Wanyu with graceful steps, thinking that her daughter was still restrained.And this cheap girl was still standing here, she was unwilling.

"Where is this lady going, do I need to report to you?"

Shen Wanyu didn't even lift her eyelids, she raised the corners of her mouth to reveal a sarcastic smile.Everyone has already tacitly understood what happened in the palace yesterday.It's just that there is no solid evidence to convict her.

"Miss's words are wrong. After all, I am also your elder. How can you not answer the elders' questions? If this is spread, others will say that the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion has no respect for her elders."

Second Auntie's voice was very gentle, but her words were very vicious.

Shen Wanyu raised her eyebrows and looked at Second Aunt mockingly: "Elder? I think Second Aunt, you have forgotten your identity. I am the concubine of the Hou Mansion and the young master of the Hou Mansion. To put it more bluntly, it is an aunt who said It’s nothing more than a high-level servant. You have heard of a master who needs to answer the servant’s questions.”

"you"

Second Auntie's gentle face finally gradually cracked in Shen Wanyu's words, she clenched the handkerchief tightly.Her greatest shame in this life is to become someone else's concubine. Although she is a concubine, she lives like a concubine.Where have I ever been so angry since I was a child?

"Second Aunt has time to teach the Second Sister a lot, and let her control the servants well. To avoid such a thing from happening again, next time it will be more than just grounding."

Shen Wanyu narrowed her eyes, and sneered at Second Aunt whose face had turned pale.Too lazy to talk to her, she walked around her and walked forward.

The second aunt stood there with a gloomy expression, her eyes were gloomy looking at the two figures that were drifting away.The handkerchief in her hand has been ravaged badly by her, and it can be seen how angry she is at the moment.

Shen Wanyu, a little slut, dared to speak of her in this way and that, it seemed that she was determined not to stay any longer.

"Go, go to Second Miss's place!"

With sinister eyes, she glanced at the two maidservants with lowered heads beside her, and she spoke in a cold voice.After speaking, he took the lead to leave, and the two maids followed immediately, fearing that being too late would make the master unhappy.

After Shen Wanyu took Qiuzhu some distance away from the garden, Qiuzhu kept holding back her laughter.Seeing no one around, she laughed.

"Haha, it's too much to relieve hatred. Miss, you are too powerful. With just a few words, Second Auntie's face changed from anger."

Qiuzhu's tone was more cheerful than ever, and the depression that had been suffocating in his heart was finally relieved.Over the years, because the eldest lady has always trusted the second aunt, the four maids have always been angry with the second aunt and the second miss.

"Seeing how happy you are, it's just a few words to anger her. If one day you teach her yourself, wouldn't you be so happy?"

Shen Wanyu looked helplessly at Qiu Zhu who was smiling and happy, and sighed in her heart that she was still a teenager after all.No matter how calm he is, his character is still lacking.

Qiu Zhu's eyes lit up when he heard his young lady's words: "Is what the young lady said true? If you had the chance, would you let Qiuzhu do it yourself?"

"That's natural. When did your lady lie to you? Well, let's go quickly and don't keep daddy waiting."

Shen Wanyu nodded, and walked towards Shen Wenyan's study without saying a word.

After walking for another half a quarter of an hour, the two arrived in front of Shen Wenyan's study.There were two guards standing in front of the study's door, and when they saw her coming, they immediately opened their mouths respectfully.

"Miss, Master Hou is already waiting for you inside."

Shen Wanyu nodded towards the two of them, pushed open the door and was about to walk in with Qiuzhu.It was a guard who stopped Qiu Zhu behind her and said respectfully.

"Master Hou said that only the young lady can go in alone."

Shen Wanyu glanced at the expressionless guard, then looked at Qiu Zhu and said, "Qiu Zhu, wait for me here."

Qiu Zhu responded, watching her young lady walk into the study alone.She found a shady place to avoid the sun, she didn't need to worry about Miss's safety, Master Hou would definitely not hurt Miss.

And here Shen Wanyu walked into the study room, this was the first time she visited Shen Wenyan's study room after time travel.His eyes couldn't help but glanced around the room, it was elegantly furnished and smelled like a book.

"Look what, it's not the first time I've come to Daddy's study."

Shen Wenyan watched his daughter size up the study as soon as she came in, completely ignoring himself.I feel a little displeased, no matter how he looks better than this study.

"Daddy, did you come here to tell me something?"

Shen Wanyu sat straight on the chair in front of the window, picked up the teapot on the table and poured herself a cup of tea.

Shen Wenyan watched his daughter drinking tea leisurely, and pursed his lips.His face became slightly serious, and he stared at her for a long time before speaking.

"I have heard your grandmother tell me about your decision. I still say what I said that night. You can do whatever you want, but the second aunt is not a simple person. I transferred two people to you, do Your bodyguards keep you safe."

Shen Wanyu was slightly taken aback, she looked at her father in surprise.Seeing his serious face, he doesn't seem to be joking with himself.She didn't understand, she just wanted to punish an aunt, so there was no need to send two people to protect her?
"Yufeng, Yushui, come out."

Shen Wenyan looked at his daughter in a daze, and shook his head helplessly.Then the voice changed suddenly, without the gentleness of the past, it was as cold as a cold spring.

Following Shen Wenyan's words, two figures flashed out from nowhere.Shen Wanyu looked at the two people who suddenly appeared out of thin air, the surprise in her eyes was fleeting.

"master!"

The two bowed their fists together and spoke respectfully.There was no fluctuation in the voice, it was clear and cold.

"From now on, you will follow the eldest lady to protect her safety." Shen Wenyan's handsome face was covered with a layer of frost, and his whole body was free of anger and mighty.

"Yes, master." The two replied in unison, then turned to look at Shen Wanyu who was sitting on the chair and said respectfully: "Miss."

Shen Wanyu blinked her eyes at the two of them, with obvious curiosity in her eyes.She stood up and walked to the two of them, looking them up and down.

One of these two people turned out to be a woman, and her eyes fell on that woman.The appearance is not outstanding, the kind that will not be noticed by throwing it on the street, but she likes the cool demeanor of her body.His eyes moved away from the woman and fell on the man standing beside her.His face was rough and wild, with a smug look between his brows.The fundus of the eyes is indifferent, looking calm.

"Yu'er, are you still satisfied with the bodyguard that Daddy chose for you?"

Shen Wenyan looked at the baby girl who had been sizing up the two of them, and asked her to please her.

"Wanyu is naturally satisfied with the person Dad picked."

Shen Wanyu looked at the two people who did not change expression under her straight gaze, and nodded in satisfaction.When he turned around and saw his father's flattering face, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Yufeng Yushui, you two go down first." Shen Wanyu sat back on the chair leisurely again, and gave instructions to the two of them.Picking up the tea on the table, he took a sip.

"Yes, Miss." The two of them clasped their fists in a respectful reply, and they disappeared in a blink of an eye.

When only father and daughter were left in the study, Shen Wanyu put down the teacup.Looking at his father with a smile in his eyes, he spoke slowly.

"Daddy, those two people are not just guards, are they?"

"Ahem, you are right. These two are not bodyguards. They are secret guards in the dark guard camp cultivated by the Hou Mansion privately. They only obey the orders of the master of the Hou Mansion. Originally, I didn't want you to I know, but now that you have decided to do that, Dad has to tell you this, the Hou Mansion is not as simple as it appears on the surface."

Shen Wenyan walked to the chair on the other side of her and sat down, with pity and guilt in his eyes.Originally, he thought that his daughter could grow up and marry without any worries, but he didn't expect to be drawn into that vortex in the end.

"Daddy, I want to ask you a question." Shen Wanyu looked at her father, and suddenly thought of her mother who was still lying on the bed.

"What's the problem?" Shen Wenyan looked at his precious daughter who was staring at him seriously, and it was rare for her to show such a serious expression.

"Daddy, why do you love your mother so much and marry another woman?"

When Shen Wenyan heard her question, he was taken aback for a moment and then smiled wryly.He knew that sooner or later she would ask, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.

"Yu'er, you are still young, and there are some things you don't understand. There are too many involuntary things in this world, and it's not something you don't have to do if you don't want to."

Shen Wenyan laughed a little self-deprecatingly, thinking of his wife who was getting weaker and weaker, feeling pain in his heart.

Shen Wanyu bit her lips, and she suddenly looked up at her father: "Daddy, life is only a few decades. If you can't live the life you want in just a few decades, then your life will be too long." It's a waste of life. I don't know why you can't say it, but I hope Dad won't regret it until he loses it."

Although my mother said that she didn't hate her father, if a woman really fell in love with a man, how could she not mind him marrying another woman.Shen Wanyu looked at her father who was bowing his head in thought, stood up and quietly exited the study.

Looking at the blue sky, she hoped that her father could understand what she said.Shen Wanyu withdrew her gaze and looked at Qiu Zhu who was walking over.

"Follow me to my grandmother's place." She still needs her grandmother's help for some things.
