Chapter 2 part 3
After rebirth, Shen Wen found that she could still use her
consciousness power, but due to the limitations of this body, it was much
weaker than in the past when she only had a soul. She found that it was the
vibration of her body that hindered the extension of her consciousness power.
Only through meditation and exhalation and controlling the body's vibration,
could she strengthen her consciousness power.
She goes to bed early every night to meditate and practices
after the maids have gone out. She does not need a teacher, but only adjusts
her breathing with reference to the strengthening or weakening of her
consciousness power. She can also look at her meridians internally and use her
mind to guide her breath to travel through the four meridians and eight veins.
She hoped that one day when she fought someone, she would
not need to use a weapon or fist, but only need to focus on her consciousness
power and be able to twist the opponent's meridians like she used to do when
she was a soul. Moreover, her consciousness power cannot reach as far as before
now, but can reach only three steps around her body. Shen Wen believes that as
she grows and practices, her consciousness power should be even stronger.
Shen Wen once thought of assassinating the Crown prince or even
the Emperor when her consciousness power was strong enough, but this was not a
safe path. First of all, she does not know how long she will have to pass
before her consciousness power is that strong enough and before that happens,
the Crown prince may strike.
Even if the assassination is successful, the majestic army
of the BeiRong will still move south, and the Shen family's army will still be
overwhelmed without backup. The other people involved in that bloodbath are
still around, and they are perfectly capable of embracing another master to
reckon with the Shen family where Shen Wen did not foresee.
Shen Wen does not want to lose the future that she can
foresee so that she can have the appropriate countermeasures when things
happen. She wants to eliminate the entire main force that wants to harm her
family, and she can only cut them off one by one after they have revealed their
full strength.
Shen Wen is reluctant to make the first move there are other
considerations: she flowed in the two worlds for a thousand years, how many
times to see that good has a reward for good and evil has a reward for evil.
After death, people have to face the mistakes or crimes they
have committed, and set themselves up to experience the suffering they have
brought to others without missing a single drop. Although she has the heart of
revenge, she is not willing to use her eternal home in exchange.
She hopes that she can join her family and go to the light
instead of returning to the darkness. Therefore, it is important for her to
postpone the crime and let the other side deserve it, rather than laying hands
on them first when they have not committed the crime, so that she can
differentiate herself from those criminals who kill the innocent.
Shen Wen could only set a trap, and her first step was to
make herself the weak point of the marquis.
In the previous life, those people put the Marquis Mansion in a
place of disloyalty in her name because they had her in their grasp. In this
life, Shen Wen has to act even weaker and more foolish than in the previous
life, so that the other side will come looking for her to use her.
The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step,
so let's start with a little crybaby.
Childhood passes like a flash, and Shen Wen has just
established the impression of a "little crybaby" when she is already
six years old.
This year in the spring, fifteen-year-old elder brother Shen
Yi’s marriage is been discussed. The Marquis Mansion will hold a flower viewing
party in April and invite all the girls in the right age from all families to
come. Whether in her previous life or now, this is the biggest social event of
the Marquis Mansion in her lifetime. In her previous life, Shen Wen began to
loathe the Marquis Mansion after this flower party, and distanced herself from
her family.
After knowing the date of the flower show, Shen Wen began to
prepare the scented sachets the she would give to people at the flower party.
She prepared two kinds, one is made by the maids, embroidered with simple
flowers filled with herbs small scented sachets, no big difference with other
people's scented sachets. Another one was made by her personally, a total of
six sachets.
She did not care about the craft, the stitches were messy
and the edges were twisted. On the outside, there is not much embroidery. Just
embroidered with a single thread the year and month of the flower meeting, the
font is naturally like a spider crawling the same. Luckily, the herbs inside
are very fragrant, and the outside is either sewn with a large bead or a small jade
ring, all of which are the most valuable trinkets Shen Wen can find.
While she was alone practicing her calligraphy, she wrote
six notes and sewed them into her personally made scented sachets while no one
could see them. These scented sachets were to be given to the people whose
trust she would gain later.
In mid-April, the day before the flower party, the Marquis
Mansion from the Main gate into the interior, along the road are placed in pots
of flowers, not many pots are really cultivated, most of them are folded from
the trees and inserted into the soil
Yang Shi's father was also a military general, just far
below the rank of the Marquis of Zhenbei. Yang Shi's father once saved the Old
Marquis by running 300 miles at night to come to his aid when he was besieged
by enemy forces. The Old Marquis settled the marriage on the battlefield. The
old Madame was more or less upset when she learned about it. She is also from a
military background family, but her family and the Marquis of Zhenbei
equivalent!
Although her maiden family later fell due to the death of
all the men in the family, she still hoped that her only son, Shen Yong, would
marry a well-known girl or something.
Later she learned that Yang Shi had grown up practicing with
swords and sticks, but in addition to a loud voice, did not learn much martial
arts. So she was even more displeased.
Before the engagement, the old Furen also nagged a few
times, the old Marquis was angry: people saved my life, what else are you
unhappy about? With such a loyal and righteous father, his daughter is
certainly not wrong!
After the marriage, Although Yang Shi's appearance is not
amazing, but her temperament is bright so she can get along with Shen Yong.
Moreover, before the Old Furen had time to put up some mother-in-law's frame to
pinch her, she got pregnant and gave birth to a chubby baby boy.
The generation of Marquis family Shen Yong is a single line
of succession, Old Furen’s other children are not saved, the old Marquis still
does not have a concubine, now suddenly there is a grandson, she immediately
put her dissatisfaction with Yang Shi's lack of noble birth to the back of her
mind, every day happy to see her grandson.
The little grandson just ran around and Yang Shi gave birth
to another one! The old Furen was so happy she didn't know to shut up: two fat
babies, that's what she had been secretly thinking about. But the joy wasn't
over yet, the youngest wasn't even as high as the table, Yang Shi gave birth to
a third son. Old Furen secretly praised the old Marquis vision is really accurate,
the Yang Shi flourished the home, Marquis Mansion from this generation is
really prosperous!
When the old Marquis died, the old Furen was grief-stricken, but
there were three little grandchildren crying with her, and Yang Shi was
pregnant with another. The Old Furen had hope in her heart that the latter days
would not be so difficult.
Yang Shi had three sons and two daughters she has a lot of
confidence. Her husband has no intention of marrying a concubine, so she was in
charge of the Marquis Mansion and over the years she developed a style of
saying something. Old Furen saw Yang Shi's high-mindedness every day, her heart
was a little displeased.
Her husband is now gone, and her son is not around, she
always feels that the days are not interesting and expects Yang Shi to give
birth to few more. But in recent years, the marquis of Zhenbei Shen Yong is
always far away, so naturally Yang Shi has nothing to offer. Although she knows
that it is not Yang Shi's problem, yet Old Furen unreasonably blame Yang Shi.
Typical grandma of ancient. She already has 5 children, still blame her
