Chapter 215 Suspicion (6)
Not everyone has the courage to treat themselves like stone. It was precisely because of this that Gao Yang felt Shen Miao was even more dangerous. And for an enemy that could potentially grow into a powerful being, the best way was to kill her before she matured. However… Gao Yang was actually a little unsure of what Xie Jingxing was thinking.
It was impossible for Xie Jingxing not to see the changes in this girl. If Shen Miao became an obstacle in their plan, it would only ruin everything.
"She has done such brave deeds before?" Ji Yushu was surprised, then nodded: "As the daughter of a mighty general, it is normal for her to be brave. Although she has no martial arts skills and is not raised by Shen Xin, with this kind of personality, no one dares to bully her."
Seeing Gao Yang lost in thought, Ji Yushu suddenly thought of something and continued, "Speaking of which, although I was the one who fabricated the news about the royal affair this time, everything was done according to Shen Miao's plan. Now that I think about it, she's really quite terrifying. I don't know what's wrong with Prince Yu, but he seems to have been so angry these days that he actually told Emperor Wenhui that he wanted to marry Shen Miao. Knowing that Shen Xin holds military power, anyone who marries Shen Miao might become a person with ulterior motives in the emperor's eyes, Prince Yu actually made such a mistake. And Emperor Wenhui is really suspicious to the end. If we add fuel to the fire, I'm afraid that even if Prince Yu dies, Emperor Wenhui won't even blink an eye. In this way, doesn't it just give the Chen family an advantage? Shen Miao's plan is so interconnected, and it's so perfectly calculated."
"Because she is a person who has no 'accidents'." Gao Yang sighed with emotion. Xie Jingxing was right. Every time Shen Miao acted in a seemingly dangerous way, in the end, it was exactly what she wanted to achieve. There were no "accidents" in her plans.
Gao Yang thought mischievously: If one day he could see Shen Miao panicking and dumbfounded because of an “accident”, he would not know how satisfying it would be.
"In short, I think this Chen Miao is someone worth making friends with." Ji Yushu said seriously, "Plus, judging by her appearance, I think she will grow into a beauty in a few years. How can I, Ji Yushu, miss such a smart and beautiful woman?" He showed a smile that he thought was elegant and unrestrained: "I have decided. In my heart, she will be as famous as Miss Shaoyao. From now on, besides Miss Shaoyao, she can also be considered my confidante."
Gao Yang simply turned his head away and stopped looking at the idiot.
And after that, the "close female friend" that Ji Yushu mentioned was picking and choosing in the house.
"Sister, did you pick so many things to add to the makeup for Shen Qing?" Shen Qiu scratched his head and asked.
Shen Miao picked out some of the things bestowed by the emperor in the storeroom, not knowing what she was looking for. Finally, she picked out a jade pillow. It felt smooth and cool to the touch, and even when it was placed, it emitted a jade-like luster, which was very beautiful.
"Sister, are you going to pick this to give to Shen Qing?"
As Shen Qing's wedding day drew near, the entire Shen family began to worry about Shen Qing's marriage. A few days ago, Shen Yue had asked Shen Miao what to give Shen Qing as a dowry gift, and Shen Qiu happened to overhear it. Shen Miao hadn't responded, so he assumed she had finally remembered the matter today.
“This?” Shen Miao picked up the jade pillow and shook her head: “No.”
"Oh." Chen Qiu asked, "Sister, do you want to use it yourself? This jade pillow looks nice."
Shen Miao lowered her eyes. This jade pillow was called the Ice Silkworm Pillow. In her previous life, when she entered the palace, Shen Xin had stuffed it into her dowry box as a dowry. Later, she became the Empress, and Madam Mei was deeply favored by the Emperor. One day, she said she was not feeling well and had a headache, and insisted on having her pillow. At that time, the Ice Silkworm Pillow was given to Wanyu. Wanyu refused and argued with Madam Mei, smashing the pillow. Fu Xiuyi severely punished Wanyu, and not long after, news of the Xiongnu marriage arrived.
Thinking about it now, they are all past dreams, but it still hurts my heart.
“Sister?” Shen Qiu asked worriedly when he saw Shen Miao remained silent.
"This is for me to give as a gift," Shen Miao said, "As for the makeup for big sister, if big brother has time, please help me pick some. If big brother doesn't have time, I can ask Guyu to buy it." Her words were full of indifference towards Shen Qing.
"Oh." Shen Qiu replied hesitantly. It wasn't until Shen Miao left the room that he slapped his head and said, "Silly, I forgot to ask my sister who the pillow was for!"
Outside the house, Jingzhe also asked, "Who are you going to give the girl's pillow to?"
"A friend."
Since she would need the Chen family in the future, she had to show her appreciation. By showing kindness and small favors, and providing timely assistance, she could gain loyal allies. She had learned the art of controlling people bit by bit from Fu Xiuyi.
It can calm the mind and concentrate the energy, which is undoubtedly a good thing for the disturbed sister of the Chen family.
