Chapter 395 Almost Disappeared
Chapter 395 Almost Disappeared
Ye Qianyao was so frightened that she called out softly, "Master?"
Shen Yuming's eyes were cold. "Want to marry someone else? Forget it. Everything will be mine."
After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and left.
Ye Qianyao was trembling constantly, as if Shen Yuming had completely changed into a different person.
All night long, Shen Yuming tossed and turned, his eyes bloodshot and he was in a bad mood.
If I had known this information earlier, perhaps I wouldn't be in this situation today.
He was full of resentment towards Ye Yunzi. After all, they were husband and wife, so how could she treat him like this?
"Ye Yunzi!" Shen Yuming cursed in his heart.
Now he is still unable to fight against the Su family, and must first find a strong backer. Considering the future direction, although he is familiar with the Fourth Prince, the Fourth Prince did not have a good ending in the end; in comparison, it may be wiser to join the Seventh Prince.
Shen Yuming decided on the direction, and his eyes revealed a ruthless look.
Shen Yuming had a firm idea in his heart: one day, he would regain power and make Ye Yunzi kneel at his feet and cry bitterly.
In order to achieve this goal, he secluded himself in his study for two full days, sorting out the plans in his mind one by one and writing them down on paper.
On the morning of the third day, when Shen Yuming walked out of the study, although his face was haggard and his hair was messy, he sneered as he looked at the manuscript on the table.
"This time, I will never fail. I will make a comeback and win back everything I lost." After saying this, he lit the oil lamp and turned all the papers into ashes.
Afterwards, Shen Yuming took a bath and changed his clothes into a green robe, looking particularly energetic.
The opera troupe is coming to Beijing to perform today, and he knows that the Seventh Prince will definitely be there to watch.
If he could meet and talk with him by chance, Shen Yuming was confident that he could win his approval.
At the same time, Ye Qianyao was worried when she heard that her husband had gone out. Ever since Shen Yuming's sudden visit that night, she felt that her husband seemed to be a little different.
For the past three days, no one except the servant who delivered meals was allowed to enter the study. What exactly happened in there?
"Don't worry, madam. The master looks very energetic!" the maidservant beside her comforted.
Indeed, Shen Yuming's dress today is very different from the past, and he exudes an indescribable charm.
When he arrived in front of the theater, Shen Yuming planned to book a private room with the best view.
As far as he knew, the Seventh Prince liked to enjoy top treatment wherever he went.
However, when he asked the waiter for the room, he was politely rejected. "Sir, the seat you want has been reserved by someone else."
Shen Yuming understood that this was bargaining, so he handed over ten taels of silver as additional compensation.
But the waiter was obviously not satisfied, and only nodded in agreement after he added another ten taels, "Oh, it seems I remembered it wrong, this private room is empty!"
Although he successfully booked a room, Shen Yuming felt painful about spending such a large amount of money.
He used to be a spendthrift, but now he can't even spend this little money.
The wealth that should have belonged to him has now become someone else's!
At the same moment, Ye Yunzi, who was in the Fourth Prince's mansion, suddenly shuddered. She realized that something bad might be about to happen.
Despite the difficult situation, she still remained optimistic: "It can't be any worse than this, right?" Ye Yunzi knew that she had to find a way to escape as soon as possible, and at the same time find a way to pass the message to Shen Siyan.
On the other side, Shen Yuming was walking towards the reserved private room with hope, ready to embrace the upcoming opportunity.
Shen Yuming wanted to seek refuge with the Seventh Prince, but he accidentally ran into trouble during the conversation. When he confessed his hatred for Miss Ye Yunzi of the Ye Mansion, the Seventh Prince suddenly changed his face and drove him out. Shen Yuming was confused and didn't understand how he had offended this prince with a strange temper.
Since the path of the Seventh Prince was not feasible, Shen Yuming had to turn his attention to the Fourth Prince.
But he knew that the Fourth Prince was not the right choice for the future emperor, and following him might not end well.
However, on the way back home, Shen Yuming has an idea: if he can use his knowledge of the future to stop the rebellion, perhaps he can turn the tide.
"I am no longer the same person I used to be." Shen Yuming secretly decided in his heart that he would do his best to assist the Fourth Prince in quelling potential rebellion and thus win his trust and support.
In order to get close to the Fourth Prince, Shen Yuming had to sell his ancestral property in exchange for a chance to meet him, which made him hate Ye Yunzi even more. If he had her financial support, this would not have happened.
Ye Qianyao was shocked to learn about her husband's extravagance. She found that the Shen family was running out of money and her dowry was the only support. Faced with Shen Yuming's unbridled spending, Ye Qianyao finally couldn't stand it anymore and exploded.
But Shen Yuming completely ignored his wife's complaints and was only thinking about how to please the Fourth Prince.
Ye Qianyao cried about her misfortune and regretted marrying such a heartless man.
Shen Yuming continued with his plan, firmly believing that as long as he proved his worth, the Fourth Prince would become his strong backing.
Whenever Shen Yuming thought about the day when he would regain his former power, he would be full of confidence, with the corners of his mouth raised, "I am Shen Yuming, the future Prime Minister of the dynasty!"
He vowed to make those who had looked down on him pay the price.
In the teahouse, Baili Ye's eyes were cold, and his fingers gently stroked the edge of the teacup. He asked Guangli beside him: "How credible do you think what that guy said is?"
Guangli's face was heavy. "Sir, predicting the future is too bizarre. I'm afraid that person just made it up to gain your trust. We need to investigate further."
Baili Ye took a sip of tea, looked through the window at the hustle and bustle of the street, and whispered to himself: "The dream..."
Shen Yuming took great pains to appear in front of him and said some strange things.
At first, Baili Ye thought Shen Yuming was just a man who would do anything to get promoted. But when he heard Shen Yuming mention the dream, he couldn't help but pay attention.
Because Ye Yunzi had mentioned a similar experience before, as Shen Yuming's words came true one by one, everything became more and more intriguing.
"What do you think he wants?" Baili Ye asked.
"This boy is extremely ambitious, and he is only after power," Guangli replied. He had a keen insight into people's hearts.
"Power?" Baili Ye chuckled.
Compared with those people with clear purposes, what makes him more difficult is the elusive woman like Ye Yunzi.
After returning to the mansion, Baili Ye spent the whole night thinking and verified some details of Shen Yuming's prediction.
Subsequently, Guangli began to conduct an in-depth investigation into Shen Yuming's background.
"Sir, Shen Yuming has not done anything eye-catching in the past. Although he has some talent, he is too proud and therefore was not reused. Later, due to a series of scandals, his family declined and he almost disappeared in the capital." Guangli reported.
