Chapter 165: Going against it will lead to bad consequences
After questioning the three people, as Shen Yuanhong expected, none of them knew anything.
I didn't even see the person who did it.
But what is certain is that there are at least three people on the other side.
The two guards were knocked out at the same time; one person couldn't have done it.
They also had to knock the guards unconscious and drag them away before chasing the carriage.
The person who attacked the carriage and knocked out the guards was not the same person.
It is also the only clue.
Now we can only wait and see if we can find any clues from Prince Jin.

Taiwei Mansion.
Upon hearing that Xiao Yelin had suddenly changed his mind and would not be attending the appointment, Su Haitang was so angry that she almost vomited blood. With a dark face, she smashed the food props that she had carefully prepared for him.
"That damn bastard, why does he always come to appointments when he says he will, and never come when he says he won't? He's so awesome, why doesn't he just go to hell?"
system:[……]
[Host, calm down. He is the male protagonist and you need him to complete the mission.]
[Host, the current situation is that you need him, not him. So even if he acts arrogantly, you must be patient.]
Su Haitang: “…”
Damn this bastard system.
It said with its own mouth that she was the female lead and Xiao Ye Lin was the male lead. If that was the case, then weren't she and Xiao Ye Lin equal?
Why should she, the heroine, be inferior to the hero?
What makes the heroine inferior to the hero?
Why was she the one who tried to please Xiao Yelin instead of Xiao Yelin trying to please her?
It's really unreasonable.
"What's the point of me being so patient? I've been patient for so long. I even offered him a book and asked him out. How else can I be patient?"
"And you, what the hell are you?"
"None of the quests you gave me were normal. Without that guy Xiao Yelin, you wouldn't issue any other quests, right?"
Su Haitang, who was furious, scolded Xiao Yelin and then started to criticize the system indiscriminately.
[Beep, the host has been detected insulting the system. The system will punish you once as a warning.]
After hearing the system's voice, Su Haitang's brain froze instantly, and her mind went blank. Before she could react, her whole body was struck by a flash of lightning.
Sizzle~
A slight electric sound was heard, and Su Haitang's hair immediately stood up and her whole body spasmed violently.
"ah……"
She screamed miserably and tears flowed uncontrollably.
Hearing the noise, the maids and old women rushed in. When they saw that she looked like she had been struck by lightning, everyone was stunned.
It's winter now, and there's no thunder outside. How could the young lady be struck by lightning in the house?
Did he do something wrong?
"Miss~"
The maids and old women cried out in surprise and surrounded her, bewildered.
Su Haitang felt unbearable pain all over her body and wanted to die. She didn't care about the people around her at all and talked to the system angrily.
"Damn system, what's wrong with you? Why are you punishing me for no reason?"
[Didn't the host hear clearly just now? It was the host who insulted the system, so the system punished the host.]
[For the sake of friendly and harmonious coexistence between the system and the host, I sincerely suggest that the host respect the system in the future.]
Su Haitang: “…”
You are just a string of data, why do you want respect?
Also, how did she insult the system by just saying what the hell it was?
She had clearly said worse things before, and I had only seen it punish her.
Can't we ask what it is?
She still couldn't figure out why there was nothing wrong with asking.
"You're so cruel."
After hurriedly saying a few words, Su Haitang unilaterally blocked the system.
This punishment finally made her realize that she could not defeat the system. This weird thing had thousands of excuses to deal with her.
If you go against it, you will suffer the consequences.
So, from then on, she should put more effort into completing the mission in exchange for a chance to survive, and talk less and provoke this thing.
Looking at the mess on the ground, Su Haitang's head began to ache.
This damn Xiao Yelin only has Shen Qingyi in his heart. If anything happens to that woman, he will drop everything he is doing.
If she had known this, she shouldn't have let Pei Lin act so hastily.
Now, there are only two days left until the end of the mission, and her mission plan has only been completed for one-third of the way.
This mission will probably be unfinished.
Thinking of the feeling of being struck by lightning after the mission failed, Su Haitang couldn't help but shudder all over.
"Miss, the Madam and the Master have woken up and want to see you."
Just then, Madam Su's personal nanny came and called Su Haitang over.
Hearing this, Su Haitang couldn't help feeling annoyed.
In fact, Su Chongyuan and Madam Su woke up several days ago, but while recuperating, they accidentally heard the maid talking privately about her and Pei Lin.
As a result, the two of them fainted from anger again.
It was precisely because they were so angry that the Su Mansion was so safe these days, but now, these two people have woken up again.
Su Haitang sighed helplessly. She was afraid that her life would not be peaceful from now on.
I hope they won’t feel ashamed and force her to marry Pei Lin.
"Okay, I'll just change my clothes and go."

Another day has passed in the blink of an eye.
After feeding, Chen Wan lay on the soft couch, released her mental power, and carved a formation pattern on a jade bead the size of a longan.
As she carved, her mental strength broke through.
The sea of consciousness trembled violently, as if some shackles had been broken, and a great change took place. The outward mental power also vibrated instantly, becoming more majestic and vast.
Snap!!!
After a subtle sound was heard, the jade beads in her hand instantly shattered and turned into powder and scattered.
Some of the porcelain in the house also began to crack.
Even the white jade hairpin on Mrs. Shen's head broke into several pieces in an instant, sliding from her hair to the ground, and her bun became loose and scattered.
Madam Shen was a little confused. Why did her hairpin break for no reason?
Looking at the powder in her palm, Chen Wan was also confused.
[How come my mental strength suddenly broke through? ]
[Alas, I didn't even react when the spiritual power attached to the jade bead suddenly became stronger, directly shaking the jade bead into powder.]
[Although other items in the house were not directly exposed to the spiritual energy, they were also impacted by the spiritual energy fluctuations. I'm afraid a lot of them will be damaged.]
After hearing these thoughts, Madam Shen finally understood that the sudden breakage of her jade hairpin was probably related to the breakthrough of Little Milk Bag's mental strength.
This mental power is really strong.
Just the force of the fluctuation caused the jade hairpin to break. What would happen if it went directly towards a person?
It's simply unimaginable.
After figuring out the reason, Mrs. Shen stood up, put the broken jade hairpin into a box, took out a new hairpin, and tied up her loosened hair.
After that, she began to check the things in the house.
This inspection is very serious.
All the porcelain in the room was cracked.
And after the initial confusion, Chen Wan immediately switched to excitement mode.
Ahhhhh, I've been holding it in for so long, my mental power has finally broken through. Hurry, hurry, hurry, let me see how far my mental power can be released after breaking through to level two.
[I remember in my previous life, when I reached level two, I could project my energy over ten miles away.]
Mental power is divided into levels one to nine. After level nine, there are of course higher levels.
Every time you break through a level, not only will your mental power become stronger, but you will also be able to unlock new skills.
Chen Wan excitedly released her mental power, but after a few minutes, she became depressed.
【Alas, why is it only ten miles? 】
[In my previous life, it was clearly more than ten miles long, why is it only ten miles long in this life? ]
"Why is this? Is it because my body in this life is too small?"
Chen Wan didn't have a definite answer, so she had to comfort herself in this way.
However, for someone who was trapped in the mansion all day, even if it was only ten miles, she was very happy.
She quickly got rid of her depression, released her mental power and roamed freely in the ten-mile world.
[Oh, the Duke's Mansion is really huge, almost five miles in radius.]
[I have to say, looking down from above, the view and layout of my house are truly beautiful. It's still winter, and I can't believe how beautiful it will be in the summer.]
[Wait, the feng shui of my house seems a bit off.]
[Damn it, the last time I controlled my second brother to come out, I was so anxious to set up the barrier that I didn't even look closely.]
[This feng shui is indeed a little off. No wonder my family is so unlucky in the storyline.]
There's a saying that goes, "Good feng shui brings twice the result with half the effort, but bad feng shui makes all your efforts go to waste."
So, hard work alone won’t do.
Mrs. Shen: “????”
What's going on?
Is her house feng shui bad?
Xiao Wan'er also knows Feng Shui?
Her family's house was a gift from the previous emperor. It was built by a very famous Feng Shui master at that time. It was a Feng Shui treasure land that everyone envied.
The house is large and has beautiful scenery. All the court officials who have visited her house are jealous and envious. How could Xiao Wan'er say that the feng shui is bad?
However, since Xiao Wan'er said so, there must be a reason for it.
Feng Shui is also known as the art of geomancy.
[The layout of my house, viewed from above, resembles a phoenix spreading its wings.]
[The phoenix is indeed a good omen, and a very good omen.]
But in front of it was a long, thin artificial lake. At first glance, it looked like a thin rope tightly shackled around the phoenix's throat.
[It is said to be a Feng Shui treasure land, but in fact it hides a very bad omen.]
[It would be strange if their whole family didn't have bad luck living here. No wonder they all died such tragically in their past lives.]
[Doesn't the Feng Shui master the late emperor hired understand this?]
[It is said that the emperor's heart is as deep as the sea. Who knows if the late emperor has any intention of harming their family?]
Shen Wan bit her fingers.
[I want to remodel the layout of my home? ]
[Reformation is easy, but the difficulty lies in how to make parents willing to reform?]
[After living in a house for so many years, who would be willing to renovate it just like that? ]
Xiao Wan'er sighed.
[Ah, I'll think about it again and come up with a better solution.]
【I'd better go out for a walk first. 】
Thinking of strolling on the street, Chen Wan's eyes immediately lit up, and she completely put aside the matter of changing the feng shui.
