The Demon Concubine of God

Chapter 327 The Former Prince’s Skull

The last words Qingcheng said to Second Madam Ji were to ask her to acknowledge the person wearing the Star-Moon Dress as her daughter-in-law. This sentence has a deep meaning. Now that Shen Wen is wearing the Star-Moon Dress given by Qingcheng, does it mean that she wants her to acknowledge this... this androgynous person as her daughter-in-law?

Although this woman named Shen Wen had served her son before and was a very special person, asking her to accept such a controversial person to become her son's wife was a joke!

Second Madam Ji asked the driver to take off Shen Wen's clothes, but the driver refused to go. Aunt Yinhua, who had received the order from Second Madam Ji to buy snacks, came back.

Aunt Yinhua didn't care whether Shen Wen had any shame or not. She immediately put down the snacks, stood up and punched Shen Wen on the head.

Shen Wen had no time to dodge, so he had to take the attack.

The two men started fighting on the busy street. Aunt Yinhua was indeed a servant trained by a martial arts family. She displayed her moves with great vigor and power. Shen Wen was defeated repeatedly after being attacked by more than ten moves.

Shen Wen managed to dodge every time. Fortunately, he had a strong ability to respond and the moves he had practiced were close combat, which was completely different from Aunt Yinhua's bold and aggressive moves. His advantage was that his moves were brutal and fatal.

They fought for forty rounds and were evenly matched.

Suddenly, a yamen runner shouted from the outside of the crowd: "Guard Shen is in trouble. Lord Ruan wants you to go back to the Prince's Mansion! There is a new discovery...! Guard Shen, hurry up!"

Shen Wen was distracted by the words of the yamen runner. He turned around and was attacked by Aunt Yinhua, hitting him in the chest. Shen Wen retreated repeatedly and finally fell to the ground.

Shen Wen touched his chest and felt strange this time. He didn't feel dizzy or even in much pain. It was amazing.

Aunt Yinhua slapped him and was also shocked. She was from an orthodox martial arts family and disdained to win by sneak attack. She really didn't stop her moves. Aunt Yinhua felt guilty, so she stopped her moves and turned back to Second Madam Ji. She told Second Madam Ji what had just happened. Second Madam Ji glanced at Shen Wen and said, "Forget it, let's go!"

Madam Ji's carriage left, and Shen Wen also hurriedly followed the yamen runners. Tong Xianyu, who was still trying to figure things out behind them, waved her hands and called Shen Wen "sister" several times.

Second Madam Ji was still furious as she sat in the carriage. She hated Shen Wen more and more and she wished that this man would disappear from this world immediately.

Just as she was building up her anger, a voice suddenly floated into her ears and said, "If you hate him so much, just let her die."

Second Madam Ji's eyes blurred, and she saw a figure sitting opposite her. The figure was so vague that she couldn't see his face clearly. He said, "Second Madam Ji, when did you become indecisive because of such a terrible person? Or is it because your son loves him so much and you are afraid of hurting your beloved son? Then you are really unworthy of your position as a mother. I bet!"

Madam Ji wanted to see the man's face clearly, but the more she tried, the clearer it became. She felt dizzy and her head seemed to be about to explode.

The carriage soon arrived at the Duke Ji's mansion. The driver called out to Second Madam Ji twice outside, and when he found no movement inside, he lifted the curtain to look inside. He was shocked to find Second Madam Ji and Aunt Yinhua beside her fainted in the carriage. The driver ran to the Duke's mansion and called for help. Everyone hurriedly carried Second Madam Ji into the mansion.

Second Madam Ji was ill, and the servant immediately ran to the villa to inform Chu Yanqiu, who then rode back to the Ji Mansion at full speed.

Master Ji was wandering around outside the house in a panic. When he saw his son, he couldn't hold back his anger and slapped his son in the face, saying angrily, "Look at what you've done. How mad you made your mother?"

Chu Yanqiu was slapped, and he didn't know why, so he asked, "Why? How come I'm the one who got angry?"

Master Ji Er didn't quite understand the reason, and said with a red face, "Why...why, I know why? Anyway, on the way back from your villa, your mother fainted from anger. Tell me yourself, what did you do to make your mother angry?"

Chu Yanqiu then pushed open his mother's door and went in to see her.

Now my mother has woken up and is sitting upright on the bed, with the maid feeding her medicine mouthful by mouthful.

When Second Madam Ji saw that it was Chu Yanqiu, she was stunned and snorted. She said, "In your heart, do you still know that you have a mother?"

Chu Yanqiu knelt down in front of his mother's bed and said, "If mother wants to beat her son to vent her anger, then beat him up."

The more Madam Ji thought about it, the angrier she became. She was so angry that she dropped the medicine bowl that the maid was holding in front of her to the ground with a crash, and the thick medicine liquid spilled all over Chu Yanqiu.

Second Madam Ji asked, "What the hell are you doing? Why did Qingcheng give her star-moon skirt to... to that... what's her name?"

Chu Yanqiu said: "Shen Wen"

Second Madam Ji asked, "Why? What does she mean? She wants my great Ji family to marry a demon who is criticized by everyone?"

Chu Yanqiu raised his head and said, "Mother, please be careful with your words. As long as no one spreads the word, who knows who he was in the past?"

Second Madam Ji sneered and said, "Is this how you deceive yourself?"

Chu Yanqiu said: "I was lying to myself before, but now I have to face it for real. Mother! I want to marry him."

Second Madam Ji's eyes lit up, she pointed a finger at Chu Yanqiu and said, "Say it to me again!"

Chu Yanqiu looked at his mother with firm eyes, not changing his original intention.

Second Madam Ji's fingers were shaking as she pointed at Chu Yanqiu and said to the servants beside her: "Tie him up and lock him up in the woodshed."

How dare the maid, Tian smiled and said: "Second Madam, there is no woodshed in our yard. How can a noble family lock up a master in a woodshed like a servant?"

Second Madam Ji was in no mood to listen to the maid's disobedience this time, and she scolded, "You bastard! I said the woodshed is the woodshed, go outside and ask someone to drag this bastard out. Tie him up and don't give him any food."

After the maid was startled, she no longer dared to disobey and quickly ran out to tell the servants outside.

Second Madam Ji sneered at Chu Yanqiu and said, "It seems that I underestimated him. There are so many concubines in this mansion, who would have thought that he would be the one who held my son's heart in his hands? I never thought that someone as cold as you would have your feelings toyed with one day."

Chu Yanqiu's eyes were filled with worry, and he looked at his mother with a pleading look.

Second Madam Ji didn't want to see this disappointing son at all, so she asked someone to take him away immediately.

Chu Yanqiu left, and Aunt Yinhua entered the room and said to Second Madam Ji: "Master, what should we do with Shen Wen?"

Second Madam Ji held her forehead with her hand and had a terrible headache. She said, "He'd better not be too rampant, otherwise, I will definitely kill him."

Although Aunt Yinhua didn't like Shen Wen, she never thought of taking Shen Wen's life. They were born as righteous and chivalrous people, and they knew best how to respect human life.

Aunt Yinhua said, "Master, can't you really keep this person with the young master?"

Second Madam Ji closed her eyes and said, "My son was finally controlled by him. He coaxed Qingcheng into giving him the status of a saint. He really found a big stepping stone to kick my door. Don't you think I am being too weak and kind? I let him do whatever he wants with me."

Aunt Yinhua felt so angry when she thought of Shen Wen's arrogant look.

As for Shen Wen, he followed the yamen runners and quickly arrived at the Prince's Mansion. Ruan Qingxia was already waiting at the door. He personally took Shen Wen's hand and pulled him into the Prince's Mansion.

Ruan Qingxia pulled Shen Wen away and said, "Go check on the person you found. He...he is simply..."

Shen Wen said: "Him? What's wrong with him? What is he?"

Ruan Qingxia said: "I think he is a lunatic. What do you think he is? We just had an argument and he made me very angry."

The two men quickened their pace and soon arrived at Qu Qiu Shui's studio.

Qu Qiu Shui just opened the door and looked at them.

Shen Wen was shocked by Qu Qiu Shui's haggard and unkempt appearance after not seeing him for two days.

Shen Wen pointed at Qu Qiushui's messy hair and beard and said, "You? You've been staying up late doing this?"

Qu Qiushui said coldly, "Are you here? The skull has been restored for you, come in and take a look."

They entered the house and saw three clay sculptures covered with white cloth near the window.

Qu Qiu Shui lifted the white cloth covering the clay skull sculpture, revealing the restored appearance.

Qu Qiushui said: "These three skulls have been restored, and the other two skulls have not yet been carved, but I don't think you will need them."

Shen Wen looked at the three clay sculptures, examining them carefully, and even walked around one of the skulls. He pointed at the skull and said, "Are you sure this is okay? He could look like that person? You? You seem to be working seriously, and you haven't been lazy or fooling around. This..."

Qu Qiushui was furious when he heard what he said. He glanced at Ruan Qingxia with a displeased look and said, "Can I be pious about the truth of reality? Whatever the skull I made looks like is the fact. No matter how outrageous the result is, it is the only correct answer."

Seeing his temper, Ruan Qingxia was disdainful of what he said.

Ruan Qingxia said to Qu Qiushui without any context, "Even the evil spirits in hell don't believe your words. Don't think I don't know your origins. You don't have any credibility in front of me."

Shen Wen waved his hand to interrupt Ruan Qingxia. He touched his lips and said to Ruan Qingxia in disbelief: "You should have seen the portrait of the former crown prince many times, right? Look at how different this skull is from the former crown prince?"

Qu Qiushui was amused when he heard what he said. He said, "Him? It would be strange if he could see it! Well, I mean, tiny spots or moles on the face or something like that."

Ruan Qingxia once again examined the three clay skull sculptures one by one. He shook his head and said, "They are too similar. I think it is because they are too similar that I think they must be fake."

Qu Qiushui was even more disdainful after hearing his nonsense: "You don't know how to see, so you just talk nonsense. Although I have never seen what the real prince's skull looks like, there is no slight difference between these three skulls. Only I, the one who reshaped them, can tell for sure."

Shen Wen on the side waved his hand and said, "This is not important. Since everyone has the same answer, there is no need to keep discussing this issue."

Qu Qiushui said unhappily, "What do you mean by that? You just brushed aside all my achievements over the past few days?"
