The Demon Concubine of God

Chapter 128 Something has happened!

Outside the main house of the Fifth House, the Fifth Master Shen Pingchang stood at the doorway with a frown on his face, his hunched body and his hands tucked into his sleeves, looking even more pitiful than the bullied young wife in the play. The servants waiting to serve him not far away really despised his appearance, and whispered to each other, not afraid that his nominal master would hear.

Lin Bao stood in front of the window and took a look, then returned to the bedside and whispered to Shen Wen about her father. Shen Wen sneered and said, "He is like this. When people in this courtyard treat me badly, he will act arrogant in front of me. When people in this courtyard treat me well, he will act stupid."

Lin Bao couldn't say anything, he just smacked his lips and sighed. After all, his situation before entering the palace was not better than Shen Wen's. At least Shen Wen was born in such a wealthy family and didn't starve to death. He was born in the countryside and had no food to eat every day. If he didn't hope that he wouldn't starve to death, he wouldn't have chosen to send him to the palace.

At this time, someone else was talking outside the house. Lin Bao looked through the window and said, "They are two girls. They look like a lady from your Shen Mansion. You, the Seventeenth Master, didn't see them because you were lying on the bed. All the masters who came to this courtyard didn't look at your Fifth Master when they saw him. Especially the young masters and young ladies of your generation, although so far we have only seen the Fifth Master and his family, the Sixth Master and his wife, and this lady."

At this point, Lin Bao stopped talking, mainly because the situation outside the window was too irritating. The young lady wanted to break into the house regardless of the servants' obstruction, and was very unhappy when she was stopped. She angrily swung her handkerchief and looked at the people in the yard and said, "Whose servants are you? How can you be so arrogant? You are blind, and you don't even ask who I am? Shen Wen has always had to kneel down to talk to me. Let me tell you! That coward will only be arrogant for a few days. The emperor will soon see through his foolish appearance. By then, he will be beaten back to his original state and have to kneel down and kowtow to my brothers, sisters-in-law, and me every day to beg for mercy."

The servants in this courtyard saw with their own eyes how all the masters who offended Master Shen Shiqi were beaten. They all lowered their heads and pretended not to hear anything.

This person is Mr. Shen Qi’s concubine daughter, Miss Shen Ba, Shen Shuxian.

Seeing that no one took her words seriously, Shen Shuxian glared at her with her eyes wide open as if she wanted to eat someone. The maid Zhuer saw that she was so excited that even her hair was messed up. She reached out to help her tidy it up, but she slapped her in the face and cursed, "You bastard! How dare you, a cheap girl, hit me on the head?" Her intention was to make a veiled attack on someone else.

After scolding the girl, she turned around and said to the Fifth Master with a half-smile, "I really didn't realize that Fifth Uncle gave birth to a good son. He only used some tricks in the brothel and grandfather looked at him differently again! I heard that the masters of the Shen family were beaten the day before yesterday, and grandfather didn't care at all, but ran to his room to see him. Tsk tsk... his affection is unmatched! Congratulations to Fifth Uncle, you are honored because of your son."

The fifth master's eyelids twitched as he listened... He suddenly became fierce, turned around and rushed into Shen Wen's room...

Just when Miss Shen was waiting to see the show, unexpectedly, the next moment, Shen Pingchang was slapped several times by the people inside and kicked out of the house.

Lin Bao's face flushed with anger. He ran to Shen Wen and said, "This little girl is not a gentle person. She even said the word brothel. I guess she is a dissolute person in secret. It's really embarrassing. Why don't I take this opportunity to go out and give her dozens of special imperial board in the name of the ancestor to teach her a lesson."

Shen Wen shook his head and said, "Let her be. She is a spoiled girl, especially in front of me, she has a great sense of superiority. In fact, it's also good this way. The Shen family will be in chaos without a troublemaker like her." Lin Bao listened to his deep meaning and let it go.

Shen Wen thought for a moment and said to Lin Bao, "My body is too weak and I need a lot of nourishment. Lin Bao, you go! Take my dad to the old man to ask for tonics and treasures, whatever is expensive. When you get there, tell my dad to wait outside the door and just let him see the good stuff flowing like water... Remember what I said, just say that you briefly mentioned my condition to the old man, and the old man gave all this without saying anything... Do you understand?"

Lin Bao didn't know what he meant.

Shen Wen said: "You don't know, my cheap father is really a mental patient, especially to his father. I just want to know where his bottom line is."

Lin Bao was even more confused. He only knew that a mentally ill person is not a lunatic. Now that I’ve already said he is a lunatic, why are you provoking him?

Lin Bao didn't care about that. He was eyeing the treasures in Lord Shen's secret treasury, so he happily followed Shen Wen's instructions.

Lin Bao was gone for about half an hour and came back happily with the spoils.

Shen Wen stood in front of the window and carefully observed Shen Pingchang's expression.

The Fifth Master Shen Pingchang had a strange look on his face, not what Shen Wen had expected. Like... how come she looked like a whore who was robbed? No, that was not right... or like a poor little girl who had just been sold to a brothel!

Shen Wen felt creepy when she saw this. She felt something was wrong. Although she couldn't guess what it was now, she felt a chill down her spine.

Lin Bao asked people to bring in all the good things, and then closed the door under the eager gaze of the Fifth Master.

Lin Bao happily took a few of the good things and showed them to Shen Wen. Shen Wen didn't care and just told him to take whatever he liked. Lin Bao was also straightforward and carefully picked a few, but the old ancestor stared at him as if warning him, and then used his claws to knock them down, and they all fell to the ground. Lin Bao smiled at the old ancestor in a flattering manner, and he said in a very unconfident manner; "Good old ancestor... I don't want too much, they are all things you like, please let me take them well! I will bring them back to the palace and save them for you, and we will use them slowly in the future."

The old ancestor looked down on his petty appearance and rolled his eyes at him.

Shen Wen shook his head and said, "It blames you for only picking things that are useful to it... Lin Bao! You should pick things that are useful to you. The ancestor is a real god. What hasn't the god seen? The god really doesn't need the things you think are good for him."

Lin Bao didn't understand and scratched his head.

Suddenly, Lin Bao slapped his head and said to Shen Wen, "Master! Guess who's back?"

Without waiting for Shen Wen to answer, he said, "The Shen Chenfeng who wanted to kill you is back. I saw it with my own eyes. On my way back, the guy even smiled at me on purpose. So I must be right. It was that guy."

Shen Wen was not in a hurry. He thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps Chu Yanqiu has other plans. I'll ask him about this when I see him later."

Shen Wen asked again: "Where is Shen Shifeng? Have you heard any news about him?"

Lin Bao said, "That kid is not doing well. I heard that he has lost all his martial arts skills and has become a useless person. His father still refuses to give up on him and is searching the world for good doctors to treat him. But... Lord Shen has people stopping him. Not only does he not let those people treat him, even the head of the Imperial Hospital and the Imperial Master have politely refused. He just short of telling Shen Shifeng to fend for himself."

Shen Wen just smiled and said, "Interesting!" and didn't mention it anymore.

As they talked about this, a few servants came in from outside the courtyard. They hurried to Shen Wen's door, knelt down and kowtowed, crying and begging, "Seventeenth Master, we are blind and have offended you. Please be magnanimous and don't bother with us. Please save me!"

Shen Wen and Lin Bao watched all this and were very puzzled, not knowing what was going on.

The second butler beside the eldest master came to the door to ask for a meeting. Lin Bao pretended to ask him to answer the question at the door. The second butler said, "These blind servants took the Seventeenth Master's constable token by mistake a few days ago, and were tricked by someone with ulterior motives to do several terrible things. As a result, they were found out by the government office. Now that the servant who caused the trouble has been caught, he put the blame on our family. Do you think our family is wronged? Seventeenth Master, please make it clear with the constable of the government office. It's all the fault of those women, but they are all ignorant and stupid women. They are also wronged. You must make it clear to the government office. It really has nothing to do with our family."

Shen Wen winked at Lin Bao, who was very smart. He asked, "Who is the servant who caused the disaster?"

The second butler hesitated for a moment and said, "He is Mrs. Shi's nephew."

Lin Bao asked, "Who is Mrs. Shi?"

The second steward ordered the old woman who was kneeling above to go to the door and answer the question.

The old woman kowtowed and said, "I am Old Lady Shi."

Shen Wen could see clearly from inside the door that it was the old woman who had snatched his purse that day.

Lin Bao said, "Mrs. Shi, let me ask you, is your nephew a servant in this mansion?"

Mrs. Shi answered truthfully, "Mr. Bing is not."

Lin Bao asked again: "Whose servant is he? What does he do? What evil did he do to frame the Shen family? He is so bold that he even bullies the top officials of the dynasty."

Mrs. Shi didn't dare to hide it and quickly replied, "My nephew is a waiter at Shunfa Casino. He stole the constable token when I wasn't paying attention, and then...used it to cheat people...pretended to be a constable at the government office, and secretly arrested a few enemies he didn't like. He wanted to vent his anger, but he didn't expect to cause a death..."

At this point, the old woman couldn't say any more.

Shen Wen sneered quietly.

Lin Bao also knew the seriousness of the matter. He shouted, "How did you kill him? Tell me clearly! You are so brave, I'm afraid it's not just this, right? Is there anything else?"

Mrs. Shi was yelled at so hard that she was shaking like a sieve. She stammered, "Really...really dead. I'm just a brainless servant. I don't understand what he did. My nephew was also bewitched by someone and committed such a heinous crime. He was frightened by the board torture in the government prison, so he admitted everything. Maybe... maybe those crimes are not true." Then she kowtowed fiercely, breaking her forehead before saying, "Please, sir, my nephew really dare not frame the Marquis' Mansion. Although he is guilty, he deserves to die! But it has nothing to do with our mansion! Please make it clear to the master of the government. If you want to kill, just kill him alone. It has nothing to do with any of the masters in the Marquis' Mansion."
