Chapter 206: Praying Mantis Catchers Cicada and Oriole Behind
"Yeah." Sheng Zhiyao nodded.
The two little fingers are hooked together, which is very similar to the scene of a family of three holding hands and playing when they were children, warm and sweet.
When Feng Yuanchen saw her cute appearance, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart.
"Hey, Feng Yuanchen, why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?" Sheng Zhiyao felt a little embarrassed by him and asked, touching her cheek.
Feng Yuanchen felt even more itchy when he saw Sheng Zhiyao's shy look. He quickly calmed down and pretended to be serious and said, "No, I just think your face is red."
Sheng Zhiyao saw Feng Yuanchen's somewhat evasive eyes and immediately understood what he was thinking, and the blush on his face deepened.
Sheng Zhiyao glared at Feng Yuanchen, then stood up and left: "I'm going back, I'm going to bed, remember to open the door!"
Feng Yuanchen couldn't help but smile when he saw Sheng Zhiyao walking away.
Sheng Zhiyao walked for a while and suddenly found that no one around him was following him, so he stopped and turned around: "Don't you want to leave? I like your palace master so much, so just stay here, I'm going back!"
Sheng Zhiyao's words made everyone scared out of their wits and they all ran over.
They didn't dare to stay in the Palace Master's house any longer. If the Palace Master suddenly thought of what happened just now, wouldn't they be beaten again by the Palace Master?
Zhu'er picked up Sheng Zhiyao and jumped back to the courtyard of the Hou Mansion. This time she let go after Sheng Zhiyao stood firm, and then said respectfully: "Miss, please go back to your room and rest first!
"
"Um!"
After Sheng Zhiyao returned to the room, she lay on the bed, but her heart could not calm down for a long time. She waited for Hongxue to come back, but Hongxue never came back.
She couldn't help but wonder. After some time, Sheng Zhiyao felt a little sleepy and fell asleep in a daze.
The next morning, when Sheng Zhiyao woke up, it was already dawn.
She rubbed her eyes and planned to get up and wash up.
"Master, are you awake?"
Sheng Zhiyao opened her eyes and saw Hongxue lying beside her: "Are you back?"
Hongxue scratched her head with her paws, then jumped onto Sheng Zhiyao's bed: "Master, I went to Qi Xiang's Mansion last night and discovered something strange."
"What's going on?" Sheng Zhiyao sat up and asked curiously.
"I was originally planning to poison, but I found that someone took action first. Master, the maid who poisoned was none other than Feng Yuanqing!"
When Sheng Zhiyao heard Hongxue's words, she was immediately shocked: "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Hongxue shook her head: "I'm sure! I followed her out of Prime Minister Qi's Mansion to the Second Prince's Mansion, and then...then the maid got on Feng Yuanqing's bed."
After hearing Hongxue's words, Sheng Zhiyao suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart: "Feng Yuanqing wants to kill Prime Minister Qi? I don't understand this, but I have an indescribable feeling."
"I'm confused too, but the room was so noisy that I couldn't hear anything at all."
Sheng Zhiyao frowned and said: "You won't see anything you shouldn't see, right?"
"No way?" Hongxue said dissatisfied, and then continued, "Some inappropriate things did happen in that room, but I don't have the habit of peeping. Didn't I quickly go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion? Prime Minister Qi seemed to be fine.
The reaction is too big, I guess the poison is chronic and not easy for people to detect."
"Then how do you know it's poison?"
"Master, my food is made of herbs. My nose can distinguish the smell of herbs from a long distance, and then smell the smell of poison."
Sheng Zhiyao looked at Hongxue with a stunned expression and couldn't help but feel speechless: "You really have a dog's nose, you can actually smell poison."
"Then what should we do now? Should we go find Qi Xiang?" Hongxue asked.
"Why are we looking for him? Now is not the time. Let's wait and see for a while. When Feng Yuanqing takes action again, we will take action again." Sheng Zhiyao thought for a while and decided to stand still.
After all, Sheng Zhiyao also wanted to see a dog-eat-dog scene.
Hongxue felt a little discouraged when she heard Sheng Zhiyao's words. It seemed that its owner really liked the fun and might even want to participate.

Chapter 206: The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind
"Master, if Feng Yuanqing wanted to kill Prime Minister Qi, when would he choose to do it?" Hongxue asked.
"No matter when it is, we will take action, and we will be like the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind us." Sheng Zhiyao said with an evil smile on her lips.
When Hongxue heard Sheng Zhiyao's words, she immediately became excited: "Not bad, not bad."
Seeing Hongxue's excited look, Sheng Zhiyao rolled her eyes helplessly: "Okay, don't think about it, go out and keep an eye on Qi Xiang, don't let him die early."
"Don't you still want to poison him right away?"
When Sheng Zhiyao heard Hongxue's words, she felt a little embarrassed, but then she returned to her original state: "Hurry up."
After Hongxue heard Sheng Zhiyao's words, she disappeared in a flash.
Sheng Zhiyao sighed, then got out of bed to freshen up and prepare to visit Tianxiang Pavilion.
Sheng Zhiyao came to Tianxiang Pavilion and was very pleased to see everything in order. It seemed that she could let go.
Sheng Zhiyao came to the tea room and sat down. Not long after, Sheng Hangu ran over: "Sister, you are finally here. You are here. Brother, how long did you think you were going to hide!"
"What do you mean by hiding? Where did I hide?" Sheng Zhiyao curled her lips and said dissatisfied.
"Okay, okay, what do you think about Feng Yuanchen's shop?" Sheng Hangu picked up the tea cup on the table and drank it in one gulp. After drinking, he wiped his mouth and looked at Sheng Zhiyao.
"Well, I'll take over the store, and he's considered one of the partners." Sheng Zhiyao thought for a while and then said calmly.
When Sheng Hangu heard this, he slammed the table: "You should have told me earlier! It would have made me worry in vain."
Sheng Zhiyao was dumbfounded when she saw her brother's reaction: "You guessed it before I told you. It seems that my brother has grasped my whereabouts very quickly!"
Sheng Hangu chuckled: "You think I'm as stupid as you!"
Sheng Zhiyao was speechless: "..."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about the store." Sheng Hangu looked at Sheng Zhiyao and said.
"Okay, tell me! This shop is also what you like."
"I think this shop is very good, but I don't know if it can afford it."
Sheng Zhiyao suddenly felt happy when she heard Sheng Hangu's words. This third brother was indeed a businessman and knew that profit was the most important thing.
"Third brother, why don't we go to the shop and have a look? It's close anyway. We can start preparations after seeing it." Sheng Zhiyao suggested.
Sheng Hangu nodded in agreement, and then the brother and sister left Tianxiang Pavilion and walked towards the shop.
The shop has two floors, and there is a small yard behind it. However, the shop is empty. It seems that the previous owner kept it clean.
The brother and sister walked into the backyard of the shop. Sheng Hangu looked at it carefully: "Sister, what do you think of this shop?"
