Chapter 204, This Concubine Wants to Be Cool②
Seeing her angry look, the system smiled and said nothing.
It just deliberately provoked their gods.
Because in this mission, if you can capture Teng Wuzhe, you will get extra points.
Master Shuyan turned around and saw the system smiling cheekily, and immediately reacted.
"Okay, you are a small system, how dare you scheme against me?"
The system said hey, "Oh, don't say that. You have to find strategies for every life you go to. You should know this without me telling you."
Lord Shuyan hummed it and said, "If Regent Lao Shizi is not easy to attack, then I will go investigate the Liu family's case myself and avoid being pissed to death by that regent who is not close to women."
The system nodded to express no objection.
Anyway, Liu Jinyi's biggest wish is to help the Liu family clear their names. As for the rest, it's up to Shuyan Shangshen to do whatever she wants.
The butler had been waiting outside the door early.
As soon as Shuyan Shangshen came out, he came over to make arrangements and said, "Girl, please come with me."
Shuyan Shangshen said yes and followed him to the backyard.
The housekeeper arranged the yard for her, gave her a maid, and then went down.
Lord Shuyan looked at this small courtyard. It didn't look like it was for a concubine, but rather it looked like it was for a little maid. It was extremely shabby.
Shuyan sighed, it seemed that Teng Wuzhe was indeed not interested in her.
But it wasn't just that he wasn't interested in her. He wasn't interested in all the beauties in the backyard, so it didn't matter if he couldn't live in a good yard.
As for Lin Caiyue, she lived in another large courtyard farther away.
Because her family is from the Shang Shu family, and although she is the daughter of a concubine with a third wife's family, her status is not high, but her family is high-ranking, so it is better to live here.
Shuyan Shangshen doesn’t care where he lives, as long as he has good food.
But she was still too naive.
Now she is just a passerby with no status, not even a concubine, so her food is not satisfactory.
She saw the cold steamed buns and pickles brought to her.
Shuyan sighed and said to the system, "Why don't we leave?"
Otherwise, how can I live with a dry head full of pickles?
At least give me some meat.
The system did not influence her thoughts, so she said, "Anything is fine, as long as you can help the Liu family reverse the case, you can go wherever you want."
Lord Shuyan snorted, "What you said is quite simple. You don't have a story about the Liu family being imprisoned. How can I reverse the verdict?"
The system said hey, "As smart as you are, you should be able to find out with a little research."
The system is so flattering, Shuyan Shangshen is very helpful.
She raised her chin and hummed, "Okay, since you said so, I will check her out myself."
But these things are not easy to check. After all, those members of the Liu family were imprisoned or exiled. It was not easy to find someone with knowledge.
Moreover, her current identity seems to be the daughter of the guilty minister, right?
If the daughter of a guilty minister walks out onto the street, she will be arrested, right?
The system affirmed, "Yes. As long as the Liu family is not cleared of the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason, Liu Jinyi will still be a sinner."
"So as long as you are exposed to the outside, those caring people will definitely not let you go."
Shuyanshangshen:...
"Then let me check this shit!" Will you let me use your divine power?
Of course the system won't let you.
Shuyan Shangshen snorted.
Forget it, she doesn't expect to break the system, so she should just play it by ear.
In the evening, the maid went to the kitchen to bring food, but it was still small porridge and pickles.
Shuyan Shangshen almost vomited.
Although it was small porridge with pickles, the porridge was cold and had a sour taste, so it was obviously going bad.
And the pickles are all moldy, so can they still be eaten?
She was extremely depressed and found it boring to stay here.
If it was difficult to win the regent, she might as well find someone else.
Anyway, Liu Jinyi's wish is only for the Liu family to reverse the case, no matter who she is looking for.
She asked the system, "Besides Teng Wuzhe, who else is more powerful in this life? It's best to be able to compete with Teng Wuzhe."
The system checked the data and said, "Currently, for the time being, there is none."
"The biggest protagonist in this world is the Regent Teng Wuzhe. He is the biggest male protagonist in this world."
Shuyan Shangshen: ..."What about the villain?"
The system said, "The villain in this life will be killed by the male protagonist. Are you sure you want to find a villain?"
Shuyan Shangshen: ..."Forget it, let's stay in the palace for now."
The next morning, it was still steamed buns and pickles.
The steamed buns are quite hot. Shuyan Shangshen ate one first, and planned to sneak out to have a meal while it was dark.
Teng Wuzhe also got the news from her.
The secret guards came and reported, "Prince's Mansion, Miss Liu is talking to herself in the room, saying she wants to sneak out of the house at night."
Teng Wuzhe raised his shrewd face and said interestingly, "Really?"
He picked up a pen and wrote on the paper, raising the corner of his mouth slyly, "Since she wants to go out, let her go. Just follow her in secret."
The secret guard clasped his fists and said, "Yes." After that, he retreated.
When it was late at night, Shuyan Shangshen quietly climbed up the wall.
The system told her that someone was following her, so she could not use her divine power for the time being and could only climb the wall as a normal human.
But the wall was so high that she didn't dare to go down after climbing up.
After all, Liu Jinyi has thin arms and legs. If she jumped suddenly, would she break her leg?
She visually inspected the ground and found it was almost three meters high.
In order not to get hurt, she could only move down slowly.
The secret guard in the dark looked at her clumsy appearance and frowned in disgust. I couldn't help but want to push her down.
Master Shuyan couldn't help but roll his eyes, and was too lazy to leave the little secret guard, so he continued to walk slowly down.
She didn't want to get hurt anyway.
It's a big thank you for not eating enough and getting injured.
After she got off the ground with difficulty, she went to a pawn shop. He pawned the only good piece of clothing in his bag.
After exchanging clothes for money, she took the money and went to have a delicious meal first.
Because Liu Jinyi was too bright and beautiful, she used some tricks on Liu Jinyi's face to let people see her ordinary face.
The secret guard only thought she knew the art of disguise and still followed her.
There was only one wonton stall left on the street late at night.
Shuyan Shangshen ordered two bowls to eat first to satisfy his stomach.
After eating the wontons, she went to the Liu family's former residence again, intending to see if there were any Liu family members nearby who had slipped through the net.
Just as she was walking around the Liu family's yard, she actually met someone.
The man had white temples and an ordinary appearance, looking like an ordinary grandfather.
As soon as the old man saw Shuyan's figure, he immediately came over and said suspiciously, "Miss? Is that you?"
When Shuyan heard this, he immediately turned back to look at him, "You called me?"
When the old man saw her ordinary face, he was immediately disappointed and said, "I recognized the wrong person."
When Shuyan saw this, he remembered that there was a trick on his face.
So she removed the mask on her face, restored her appearance and said, "Old man, look at who I am again."
When the old man saw Liu Jinyi's face, he was immediately surprised and said, "Miss? Is it really you?"
Shuyan Shangshen said humbly, "It's me."
The old man looked around and said to her, "Miss, it's not convenient to talk here. Come with me." After that, he took her to a private place.
Shuyan didn't doubt that he was there. He looked around and saw that the secret guard didn't follow him, so he followed the old man.
She also wanted to see if this old man was from the Liu family.
