Chapter 31

031 ominous man

Shen Qingru patted Shen Rumei on the back and comforted him softly. Shen Rumei gradually stopped crying, and her black shiny eyes looked at her brightly.

There was a loud noise in front. Shen Qingru exchanged eyes with aster, turned to Shen Rumei and said, "go behind the rockery first and don't be seen. Don't make a noise no matter who asks you, except me."

"Do you understand?" Shen Qingru asked again and again and pinched Shen Rumei's chubby face. Woo, it's white and tender. It feels really good.

Shen Rumei nodded cleverly, followed aster and dodged into a hidden hole on the side of the rockery.

Shen Qingru went to the busy center and met Shen Xinzhi with the Qin family on the way. Shen Muyun and Shen Huajing were also there. The Party headed for the Bibo garden in the northwest.

Shen Qingru also noticed that her second aunt, Wang, was not among the pedestrians.

Shen Xinyi and Shen Qingru met on a narrow road. Shen Xinzhi frowned: "Why are you here?"

"Back to his father, Qingru heard the noise here, so he came to see what happened." Shen Qingru's voice was calm.

"Well, you'll follow." Shen Xinzhi waved his hand and hurried towards the Bibo garden. Qin lowered his head and closely followed Shen Xinzhi. When passing Qin, Shen Qingru heard a low cold laugh from Qin's throat.

At the end of the line, she thought about what tricks Qin had come up with this time.

"How's the divine bird?" Shen Xinzhi asked impatiently as soon as he entered the Bibo garden. Since he received the news that the divine bird was ill, he rushed here. The divine bird is a gift from the emperor. If there is anything wrong, I'm afraid his black hat will be hard to protect!

"Don't worry, master. The divine bird is the divine bird under the Buddha's seat. It is spiritual and will be fine." Qin comforted.

She is well aware of the importance of the divine bird. It is said that the emperor Taizu was chased and killed by his mortal enemies when he was in trouble and hid in the desolate mountains and forests. There are many people on the other side. Seeing that there is no way to avoid it, Taizu is ready to break the jade and fight with the enemy. Unexpectedly, a group of black birds suddenly flew around Taizu. The enemy thought Taizu was a tree and left by himself.

Taizu escaped his life and was very grateful to the black bird. Later, when he became a great treasure, he did not forget to give the bird the name of divine bird and keep it in the Forbidden City for generations to enjoy worship.

The three divine birds in the prime minister's house were given to Shen Xinzhi by the Emperor today. If there is anything wrong with the divine bird, I'm afraid Shen Xinzhi can't explain to the emperor. If it is light, the salary will be fined, and if it is heavy, the black hat will not be guaranteed.

Manager Hu didn't dare to look back at Shen Xinzhi and said in a trembling voice, "Lord Hui, the divine bird... The divine bird is dead."

Shen Xinzhi was struck by lightning. He looked at the three dead birds lying on the ground. The divine bird was dead?

His body shook. Qin hurried forward and held Shen Xinzhi with Shen Muyun left and right: "master, be careful of your body."

Shen Xinzhi impatiently pushed away the Qin family. He had been in the court for a long time and had already developed an extraordinary mind. It seems that you can't hide it. Since you can't hide it, you can simply find out and explain it to the emperor.

"According to the three people in charge of taking care of the divine birds, they also saw three divine birds playing by the water at noon. In the afternoon, they found three divine birds dead in the grass. There are few people near Bibo garden. It is not difficult to thoroughly investigate the relevant personnel."

"Then hurry to investigate." Shen Xinzhi said angrily. He will not let go of the murderer who killed the divine bird!

"Mei'er, mei'er, have any of you seen mei'er?" a woman with disheveled hair rushed over in a hurry, like madness.

Her hair was untidy and her blouses could be worn in the future. When she saw people, she asked, "have you seen my mei'er?"

Shen Xinzhi was furious and glared at manager Hu: "where's the crazy woman? Don't you drag it down quickly?"

Manager Hu squinted for a long time: "Sir, it's aunt le. She seems to be looking for master Mei."

Rumei? Shen Xinzhi is in a mess about being a divine bird. Although she wants to drag aunt Le down and kill her, Shen Rumei has to be careful when it comes to the only blood of the second room.

"What's wrong with Rumei?" Shen Xinzhi stared at Aunt Le impatiently.

Aunt Le seemed to recover her mind and recognized the Xiangye Shen Xinzhi in front of her. She cried out: "please help me find Rumei."

"After breakfast, I made a needle and thread in the room. Rumei kicked shuttlecock outside. I didn't see his shadow at noon. I thought he ran out to play, so I sent someone to the old lady..."

"But the old lady said Rumei didn't go to her. I thought the child had gone to another yard. But I looked everywhere and couldn't find Rumei's shadow..."

"Ridiculous! Why can't you find it in your own home? Send more people to help you find Rumei." Shen Xinzhi also panicked. After all, he is the only son of his second younger brother. If there is a real problem, he can't explain to his dead second younger brother and his mother.

"What's the matter with aunt Le? Why are you so anxious? It's not polite to see my main room." Wang Shi ran appeared and spoke very bitterly.

"Second lady, Rumei is gone..." aunt Le sobbed.

"What?" Wang's face was surprised, and Shen Qingru sneered. If she hadn't just saved Shen Rumei from Wang's men, I'm afraid Wang's eating surprised her seriously.

"The divine bird is dead too?" Wang patted his chest and looked unbelievable.

Shen Qingru looked on coldly. She was afraid that the death of the divine bird had something to do with Wang. She must have done something from it.

"Alas, it's strange that so many bad things have happened in the house for more than a month." Wang murmured to himself, "brother, in my opinion, I'd better ask the fairy to have a look."

"Absurd." Shen Xinzhi spit out two words coldly.

Wang salivated: "elder brother, you can't say that. A fairy I know knows knows everything like a God, but it works well. Apart from anything else, maybe the fairy can help us figure out where Rumei is."

"It happened that this fairy came to the house today to teach me scriptures. It's better to invite her to have a try. It's also a dead horse as a living horse doctor."

Aunt Le over there listened to Wang's saying that she could figure out where Shen Rumei was. Seeing Shen Xinzhi's noncommittal, she quickly kowtowed on the ground: "please help Rumei."

Shen Xinzhi sighed and stopped talking.

Before long, the fairy in Wang's mouth was invited. She was about forty years old, dressed in Taoist robes and holding a dust brush. A pair of hanging tip triangular eyes rolled around and secretly observed the Shen family.

"Fairy, there have been a series of accidents in my family recently. First, the divine bird died, and now Rumei has disappeared. Please calculate it." Wang made a sincere appearance.

The fairy shook her head with an affectation: "the secret of heaven must not be revealed."

After Wang's repeated entreaties, the fairy reluctantly agreed. She went to the dead divine bird and asked Shen Rumei about her birthday. She ordered incense to worship the God and raised the altar. The fairy danced around the altar for a while and chanted words until Shen Xinzhi's patience was about to run out.

"Madam, I didn't want to reveal the secret. It's just about the lives of the prime minister's family. I'm willing to take risks and tell the truth."

"Please give me your advice."

"To tell you the truth, the death of the divine bird and the disappearance of young master Mei are all due to an ominous person in the house who was possessed by the evil spirit. The evil spirit has just returned to the Shen house today, and its ferocity is far from that of ordinary demons. The divine bird and young master Mei were conquered by the ominous man. Fortunately, I found them early. Later, I'm afraid the whole house will be worse than the evil hand."

As soon as the fairy's voice fell, her eyes fell on Shen Qingru, and everyone talked about it one after another.

"Just returned to Shen mansion, isn't that the eldest lady?"

"Is the eldest lady evil?"

"I wonder why strange things have happened one after another at home recently. It turns out that there is a harmful broom star." among the group, Shen Huajing's voice is particularly loud.

Shen Qingru almost laughed. Her good second aunt had this idea.

"Who is the ominous person that fairy said?" Wang continued to ask.

The fairy's eyes wandered around in a false way, and finally fell on Shen Qingru.

"Come and go, I'm the only one who just returned to the house. Is that me?" Shen Qingru simply stood up.

"Almsgiver immeasurable, since you know your sins are haunting you, please confess your sins early and subdue them." the fairy said in a positive way.

"Since the fairy has such an eye, why don't you ask the fairy to calculate where mei'er is at this time?" Shen Qingru said calmly.

The fairy did it again. After half a ring, she pretended to be sad and sighed: "I pinch my fingers. Young master Mei is no longer in the world. He doesn't fall into the water. His body is in the lake."

She pointed to the lake where Shen Qingru had just saved Shen Rumei.

Aunt Le fainted with a scream. She had believed most of the fairy's words. Shen Xinzhi didn't believe what the God mother did. With a black face, she ordered the servants to look for Shen Rumei in the lake.

In an instant, 40 or 50 people jumped down and fished in the lake. The fairy sat there leisurely and confident.

After a long time, most of the salvagers had come up and didn't find Shen Rumei's body.

The fairy gradually couldn't sit still, and her eyes frequently looked at Wang. Wang stared at her with hatred. What's the matter? Shen Rumei had already been thrown down by her, but she asked the God woman to make a play. As soon as the woman heard that she had sesame oil money, she happily agreed to Wang.

Shen Qingru looked at the restless fairy and smiled: "fairy, your secret seems to be inaccurate. Just now I seem to see a man who looks like mei'er playing in the backyard."

"Fish it up! Fish it up!" there was a sudden noise on the shore.
