"My dear, what are you going to do?"
Shen Yuexi put her arms around Liang Yuyu's back and was about to steady her head when she heard a faint voice coming from outside the carriage.
"Senior Sister, let's meet at Yueyang Tower tomorrow at noon."
As soon as the sound outside the carriage fell, Liang Shuda immediately lifted the curtain.
But outside the car was empty, with no one in sight.
"Mother, did you hear that just now? What was that sound?"
I saw it!
Liang Yuyu waved her claws and whimpered, but she couldn't utter a word.
Something just passed by. Those are the words it said.
[It's called Mother Sister. That thing belongs to Taoist Bieshe!]
[Who exactly is this Bieshe Taoist? How could he have such a strange thing?]
Shen Yuexi's expression was slightly gloomy, and the lines on her face seemed a little stiff.
She held Liang Yuyu's little head and let her lean on her shoulder, with a dangerous gleam in her eyes.
"It's the Voice Bird." Shen Yuexi whispered, "This is my master's exclusive secret technique. The bird has a special device that allows it to imitate human speech."
Shen Yuexi's eyes grew darker and darker: "What on earth does Taoist Bieshe want to do?"
The messenger bird flew past Shen Yuexi's carriage, passed through the streets and alleys of the capital, and finally flew into the second private room of a restaurant.
The messenger bird landed on the shoulder of Taoist Bieshe, raised its little claws, and cleaned them carefully.
Taoist Bieshe gently patted the feathers on the bird's back and asked, "Have they all been transmitted?"
Naturally, no one answered.
At this moment, the door of the private room slowly opened.
Seeing the newcomer, Taoist Bieshe quickly stood up, drove the sound bird away, and respectfully saluted the newcomer with his fists clasped together: "Master."
Cen Jiaan had an expressionless face as he walked straight forward and sat down opposite Bieshe Taoist. Then he raised his chin gloomily and motioned for him to sit down.
Taoist Bieshe only sat on the chair with one-third of his buttocks, and looked at Cen Jiaan cautiously: "I saw everything that happened just now."
Cen Jiaan didn't reply and just drank his tea.
"Master, you secretly planned to prevent Cen Yiyi from seeing Liang Shuda, causing today's incident. Aren't you afraid that Minister Cen will embarrass you when you return home?"
Cen Jiaan raised his eyelids and his cold gaze swept across Taoist Bieshe's face.
The latter was startled and subconsciously lowered his head, not daring to say anything more.
After a long pause, Cen Jia'an withdrew his gaze quietly. "Today on the street, Madam Liang publicly humiliated my elder sister, causing widespread discussion in the capital about the Cen family. What does this have to do with me?"
Taoist Bieshe nodded quickly: "Yes. This is all Madam Liang's fault."
"Taoist." Cen Jia'an put down his teacup and glanced at the Taoist priest. "Daddy has lost face, so naturally he wants to take revenge on the Liang Mansion. This will most likely fall on you. You don't need me to teach you what to do, right?"
Taoist Bieshe nodded repeatedly.
Seeing that Cen Jiaan's expression had softened somewhat, Bie Shedao asked tentatively, "Master, why are you so busy in the capital?"
Cen Jiaan smiled indifferently, a hint of coldness appearing in the corners of his lips. "You don't need to ask any more questions. Just do as I say. Remember, the more chaos in the capital, the better."
Facing this little brat Cen Jiaan, Taoist Bieshe didn't dare to say a word.
Although the child in front of me has only a small body, he exudes a powerful aura, which makes people dare not approach him.
The next day.
What happened yesterday spread throughout the capital.
The people in the capital were talking about it.
"The eldest daughter of the Cen family stopped Madam Liang's carriage in the street, just to gain a reputation for herself."
"According to reliable information, there is another big boss behind Madam Liang's Rouge Pavilion."
"The Liang family is about to marry the Zhenguo Duke. The two families have a close relationship, so I'm afraid there will be big moves."
Liu Qiu told Shen Yuexi the three rumors in the capital.
After that, she glanced at Shen Yuexi carefully and whispered, "Madam, this is probably the news from the capital."
On Shen Yuexi's desk was the letter that had just been sent from the palace, and Liang Yuyu was sitting in a chair beside her.
She sucked her fingers, her eyes twinkling
【How strange.】
[Although it seems that all this information was revealed by Cen Yiyi yesterday, isn't this trend a bit strange?]
Shen Yuexi raised her eyes and looked at Liu Qiu: "Regarding these three theories, what are the discussions in the capital?"
Mentioning this, Liu Qiu's expression became even uglier. "This... many people in the capital are discussing why our Liang Mansion and the Zhenguogong Mansion suddenly formed a marriage. Is there any other purpose?"
[Sure enough! These rumors aren't focusing on yesterday's gossip, but rather on the marriage between the Liang Mansion and the Zhenguogong Mansion.]
It seems the person behind the rumors is trying to use this opportunity to muddy the waters of the capital and draw attention to the Liang Mansion and the Zhenguogong Mansion.
[Now it seems that Cen Yiyi, the person at the center of this incident, has mysteriously disappeared.]
【This matter is becoming more and more interesting.】
Shen Yuexi's eyes grew darker, her right hand resting on the table curled up, her knuckles tapping lightly against the table.
Liu Qiu glanced at Shen Yuexi cautiously: "Madam, if you continue to indulge these discussions, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to the reputation of our Liang Mansion."
"So what do you want to do?"
"How about I take a few people and arrest those who are discussing these things. Don't allow them to talk nonsense outside."
[No way.]
Liang Yuyu's cheeks bulged and fell, and her mind was racing.
[The more forceful the measures, the more it will appear that our Liang family is guilty.]
[Perhaps someone with ulterior motives would see this and file a memorial before the Emperor.]
[By then, gossip will become a political stain on Daddy.]
Shen Yuexi shook her head at Liu Qiu: "No way. Doing so will only make more and more people believe that the rumors are true."
"But we can't just let the rumors continue, right?"
Why not?
Let them talk. After all, it's not just our family that's worried right now. The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is probably also extremely busy.
Minister Cen thought that by blurring the focus and pushing us and the Zhenguogong Mansion to the forefront, he could save Cen Yiyi from harm. However, by doing so, he directly offended both families.
He wants to sit back and watch the fight, so we can take advantage of it.
Shen Yuexi thought for a moment, called Liu Qiu to her side, and gave him some instructions.
After Liu Qiu left, Shen Yuexi moved her stiff neck left and right and turned to look at the pink little baby beside her.
She touched Liang Yuyu's little face thoughtfully: "We still have an appointment today."
Without Shen Yuexi's reminder, Liang Yuyu also remembered the scene when the messenger bird appeared yesterday.
She was even a little impatient to meet Taoist Bieshe and take a closer look at what strange abilities this Taoist had.
What's more, Liang Yuyu always had a vague feeling that these rumors in the capital seemed to be inseparable from Taoist Bieshe.
