The Demon Concubine of God

Did Chapter 500 lure him out of the capital?

The young emperor on the throne was completely different from usual. Even when Chu Yanqiu stormed in, he didn't bother to give him a second glance, immersing himself in the company of four beautiful women.

Chu Yanqiu looked at his tied-up relative, his eyes almost blazing with fury.

Only then did they hear the young emperor's haughty words?

"Are you thinking that my men can't handle you, and that you can just take your two loved ones away so easily?"

Chu Yanqiu really thought so, but his instinctive thoughts told him that such a simple method probably wouldn't work.

The young emperor then pushed away the beauty massaging his head, sat up from his seat, and said, "It seems you are also aware of the methods of your Ji family's immortal ancestor. Fortunately, you didn't act impulsively just now. Both of them have been placed under a forbidden spell. No matter which one you save first, it will trigger the forbidden spell, causing your body to suddenly explode and leave you with nothing but a bloody mess."

Chu Yanqiu's expression grew increasingly grim, and he almost couldn't suppress his impulse.

The young emperor waved his hand, dismissing all the beauties, and stared calmly at Chu Yanqiu for a moment.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, he sighed softly as if to back down, and said, "Although I don't know why you and your immortal ancestor had a conflict, I am really at my wit's end. Lord Chu, no! My beloved minister, only Shen Wen can break the curse on me. Without Shen Wen to help me break this curse, my future days will be like being trapped in hell. I don't want to start a massacre in despair."

As the young emperor spoke his mind, he carefully observed Chu Yanqiu's expression.

Finally, Chu Yanqiu walked out of the study with unsteady steps. When he left the palace, he himself did not know how he got there.

Faced with the compromise he had just made, he felt like killing himself, but his life didn't just belong to himself, because his grandfather's and father's lives were also in his hands.

The Immortal Ancestor's methods are truly amazing.

This time he truly understood, and the thought sent chills down his spine.

That little emperor had long since changed his soul, just like the truth behind Shen Wen's rebirth.

The young emperor became Prince Rui.

The ring in his hand, which contained the soul fire, was the best proof.

Regardless of whether his two closest relatives were in the hands of the Immortal Ancestor or the Little Emperor, and were being used as hostages, he thought that they had retained a shred of humanity before, and that even if an agreement was not reached, his two closest relatives would not have been tortured to death.

Prince Rui was utterly inhuman.

The thought of Prince Rui's methods of manipulating people made Chu Yanqiu, who was as tough as steel, feel his legs go weak.

This kind of death is absolutely intolerable.

No matter what, even if he ultimately dies a tragic death at the hands of his loved ones, it is absolutely unacceptable.

It was past midnight when Chu Yanqiu walked home for several hours, until dawn before he returned to the Duke of Ji and resolutely went to see Shen Wen.

After a good night's sleep, Shen Wen was greeted by someone who was not Chu Yanqiu.

The sky was just beginning to lighten with the first rays of dawn.

The maid outside then banged loudly on the door.

The noisy commotion, as if it were a revenge attack, immediately woke up the still drowsy Shen Wen.

Hearing the urging voices outside the door, Shen Wen realized that the noisy maid was a servant from Chu Yanqiu's mother's courtyard.

Shen Wen dared not delay and quickly put on the bright red wedding dress from yesterday, which was by the bedside. He picked up his shoes as he went to open the door.

When the door was opened and people looked outside, even Shen Wen was surprised.

It turned out that it wasn't her own maid or the maidservant beside Chu's mother, but also Ji's mother and that old nanny, Aunt Yinhua.

With a cold expression, Madam Ji saw Shen Wen finally open the door, and the sharp look on her face not only did not diminish but became even more pronounced.

The maidservant was very perceptive; she took the lead and pushed Shen Wen aside.

Then, Madam Ji led everyone into the house in a grand manner.

After taking her seat in the main seat, Aunt Yinhua, who was next to Ji's mother, was the first to question her: "Your own husband didn't come home all night, yet you slept so soundly? You really are a cold-blooded, heartless womanizer."

When Shen Wen heard Aunt Yinhua insult her right away, she immediately realized that something was wrong. After thinking it over quickly, she felt that the master and servant were very strange.

Thinking about the twists and turns that might have occurred, Shen Wen endured the humiliation.

Shen Wen put on a smile and looked at Ji's mother, saying, "Mother-in-law, what's wrong? Did Chu Yanqiu upset you? It's not that I wasn't worried about Chu Yanqiu yesterday. Wasn't it just yesterday that we got married? I thought that on such an auspicious day, if everything went smoothly, there wouldn't be any more accidents. And when I heard Chu Yanqiu say that nothing bad had happened, I listened to his advice and went to sleep first."

Seeing that her mother was about to pick up the tea on the table, she quickly grabbed the cup first and said, "Mother, are you here to drink tea with your daughter-in-law? I'll serve you tea right away."

Despite her eagerness, Aunt Yinhua pulled her away with such force that she stumbled.

"Get away from this filth!"

This is the second time Aunt Yinhua has insulted me.

Shen Wen's expression darkened further.

However, her daughter-in-law was still a well-mannered person. So what if it was a show of force on her first day in the family? She could still tolerate it.

So Shen Wen said, "Sigh, I won't go forward."

Ji's mother picked up the teacup again and, using her sleeve as cover, took two sips of tea.

It perfectly concealed the fleeting tenderness in her eyes.

She placed the teacup she was holding back on the table.

then……

He said, "I don't need to urge you to put on this wedding dress again. I'll have someone dress you up again in a bit, and then you can get into the bridal sedan chair and go through the royal gate."

Shen Wen was even more surprised, and she couldn't help but look up and examine Ji's mother carefully.

But no matter how she looked at Ji Mu, she couldn't see any hint of joking on her face.

Aunt Yinhua was a capable old woman who immediately beckoned to the maids waiting at the door, telling them to come in and do their work.

Shen Wen remained calm and asked, "What does Mother mean by this? I married into our family, so I am our daughter-in-law. How can you say I'm going to the Huang family? Who is the Huang family? Why would I go to the Huang family?"

At this moment, two strong maids came over and grabbed Shen Wen, intending to carry her to the dressing table to get dressed.

Shen Wen was furious and didn't want anyone to touch her. She immediately changed her expression and her body trembled violently. Using her martial arts skills, she immediately threw the two maids away. The maid on the right even lost her balance and fell to the ground with a cry of "Ouch!"

Seeing this, Ji's mother sighed inwardly. To be honest, with her strong and self-reliant nature, it was truly a perfect match to control her stubborn son.

Madam Ji coughed, which intimidated the two sides who were about to fight in the room. Then Madam Ji said to Aunt Yinhua, "You two go out first. I want to say a few words to her before you come in."

Aunt Yinhua looked at Ji's mother with concern. She knew best how barbaric Shen was, and she was afraid that Ji's mother would be hurt by Shen Wen.

Ji's mother said, "Just two sentences, and she won't resist like this anymore."

Seeing that Madam Ji was so confident, Aunt Yinhua stopped insisting on her own opinion, led the maids out in a row, and then closed the door behind her.

Madam Ji sighed and said, "It's not the Huang family, but the royal family, the imperial family."

Shen Wen was surprised.

When Shen Wen thought of the young emperor whose soul had been replaced by that of Prince Rui, she said, "What tricks did he use? Wasn't it said that the Ji family was stronger than the Dajue court? Why is he so weak when it comes to me?"

Suddenly, Madam Ji slammed her fist on the table in a fit of rage, her face turning extremely ugly. "Do you know that last night, Chu Yanqiu's father was kidnapped by the young emperor without anyone noticing, and now the young emperor is using him as a hostage! And my father, because of you, my husband, my own father, is about to be brutally murdered because of you."

Upon hearing this, Shen Wen suddenly thought of Yu Chi Lian, and her expression immediately turned panicked. Her thoughts couldn't keep up with her words, and she couldn't help but say, "So it's Yu Chi Lian who's come up with a new trick again. I knew she wouldn't be satisfied until she broke us up."

At this moment, Ji Mu was most averse to anyone mentioning "Yu Chi Lian". She suddenly shouted angrily, "Shut up! My Ji family's immortal ancestor is a god, the god of all things in this world. You are not allowed to be disrespectful to her."

Shen Wen was stunned by her sudden shout and lowered her head.

After a moment, Shen Wen sighed, her whole body slumped, and she automatically sat down in front of the dressing table and said, "Isn't this just a new trick? Fine! Then I'll let her do as she pleases. Anyway, I've died at her hands several times already."

Ji's mother silently stood up from her seat, and as she was about to leave, she turned back to Shen Wen and said, "This time, it's my son who has wronged you."

The maids came in again, hurriedly following their mistress's orders, with the senior second mistress, Aunt Yinhua, supervising them from the side.

Not long after, Shen Wen was crowned with a phoenix coronet.

Aunt Yinhua picked up the red veil from the tray and was about to put it on Shen Wen's head.

"Wait!"

"What? I knew you'd try something funny."

Shen Wen looked at Aunt Yinhua in the mirror of her dressing table and said, "I suddenly thought of something. Your Second Young Master Chu probably doesn't know about stuffing me into the bridal sedan chair and sending me to the palace, does he? Did your Second Madam deliberately send him away last night? Let me think, where did you trick him into going? Did he leave the capital? Did he go to another province? Will he be back in several days?"

Yinhua, upon hearing this, coldly laughed and said, "You're overthinking it."

Shen Wen shook her head, but her eyes revealed that she admitted she was wrong.

At this moment, the door was opened again.

The man they were talking about returned at just that moment.

Shen Wen looked in Chu Yanqiu's direction almost simultaneously, and at that moment, the light in her eyes was something she herself did not realize.

Shen Wen just watched him quietly.

Chu Yanqiu only glanced at Shen Wen once as he entered the room.

After he entered, he looked around at everyone in the room, and when he saw Aunt Yinhua, he asked, "Has Mother been here too?"

Aunt Yinhua bowed and nodded, saying, "She has come. Young master, you can't blame her. There's no way to avoid this. Second Madam ordered us to dress up Miss Shen in advance, hoping that things will go smoothly and that the city lord and the second master can return home safely."

I overheard the conversation between Aunt Yinhua and the other person.

Shen Wen's heart was pounding so hard she was about to burst, and she suddenly stood up from her seat.

"Chu Yanqiu!"

Chu Yanqiu still maintained a cold demeanor.

Shen Wen suppressed her panic and said, "Tell them all to leave."

Chu Yanqiu's gaze met that of Aunt Yinhua, who immediately understood the young master's meaning. She waved and led all the maids in the room out.
