Chapter 151 Shen Wenyuan, Death

After receiving the message from Shen Wenyuan, Fan Ziyi thought about it again and again and decided to help.

In the current situation, the Shen family would definitely not support the prince. Unless Shen Wenyuan came back, there would be a turnaround.

"Dispatch a group of secret guards to kill Shen Baiting!"

…

On the northbound official road.

Shen Wenyuan lay in the carriage, cursing Master Shen inwardly.

"My mother asked me to give you this medicine." Shen Baiting handed him a medicine bottle with a complicated expression.

Shen Wenyuan ignored him.

He would never use the medicine given by Shen Baiting. Who knows if he would poison him.

Seeing this, Shen Baiting didn't say much to him. He placed the medicine bottle next to him, turned around and walked out of the carriage.

"Master, there are bandits!" the guard shouted nervously.

In the distance, I saw a group of masked bandits riding horses and holding long swords, rushing out from the dense woods on both sides of the official road.

"Be careful and defend yourself!" Shen Baiting's face also changed.

As soon as the two sides fought, the Shen family guards were defeated.

Shen Wenyuan heard the noise outside the carriage and quickly lifted the curtain to look out.

Bandit!

It seems that Fan Ziyi’s people are here.

Shen Baiting is dead today!

But the next moment, he saw the leader of the bandits rushing straight towards him.

What's going on?

Shen Wenyuan was shocked and was picked up by the bandit.

After capturing Shen Wenyuan, the bandits immediately poured in like a tide.

"Sir, I am incompetent and failed to catch up with the bandits." The guard apologized.

Shen Baiting counted the casualties and found that except for Shen Wenyuan who was captured, no one was killed.

He also didn't know who had taken Shen Wenyuan away.

Maybe even Shen Wenyuan himself hired someone to "capture" him?

He knew very well that Shen Wenyuan had always regarded going to Northern Xinjiang as a suicide mission, and he hated himself for escorting him.

"Let's go back and report this to father first." Shen Baiting said.

And further away, the Fan family's secret guards had been lying in ambush for a whole day, but they still hadn't waited for Shen Wenyuan and his party to arrive.

…

Near the official road, deep in the dense forest.

Shen Wenyuan was thrown to the ground by the leading bandit.

The bandit pulled off his mask, revealing Jingzhe. He saluted the two people who were drinking tea under the shade of a tree.

"Your Highness, Princess, Shen Wenyuan is here!"

Shen Wenyuan looked at the man and woman in horror: "Jiang Rong, what...what are you going to do?"

"Kill you." Jiang Rong said coldly.

Upon hearing that Master Shen was going to send Shen Wenyuan to the Northern Frontier, Jiang Rong came over to wipe out the problem.

She would not give Shen Wenyuan a chance to come back for revenge.

He had bribed a group of bandits to kill Jiang Rong, and now Jiang Rong had also arranged a group of "bandits" to kill him.

Every sip and every bite, cause and effect cycle.

"You dare! My father will never let you go!" Shen Wenyuan looked fierce but was actually weak.

Just now, he was cursing Master Shen in his heart, but at this critical moment, he still used his name to scare people.

"Let's not talk about whether Master Shen will become my enemy because of you after knowing the truth. He won't know the truth at all." Jiang Rong said calmly:

"He will only think that you don't want to go to Northern Frontier and you ran away on purpose. He still doesn't understand you. Why would you run away? You will only kill Shen Baiting."

The Fan family guards were lying in ambush a little further ahead of them.

Jingzhe and his men had calculated the location and decided to strike first.

Shen Wenyuan's expression changed instantly, and his face turned ashen.

"I'll ask you a question. If you answer truthfully, you can die more comfortably." Jiang Rong glanced at Shen Wenyuan coldly:

"Who was the person who bribed you to elope with me?"

Shen Wenyuan's mind raced, "Jiang Rong, I am sincere to you... No one is buying me off! There must be some misunderstanding between us!"

The next moment, Shen Wenyuan felt a series of cold gazes falling on him.

When he looked up, Xie Lingxi was staring at him coldly.

That look was no different from looking at a dead person.

Shen Wenyuan was so anxious that he wanted to slap himself twice. Why did he only care about the beginning and not the end? Xie Lingxi was still here.

"Well...someone did force me to elope with you. At the beginning, the Queen Mother arranged for you to marry the Northern Prince. I fully agreed with such a good marriage!" Shen Wenyuan hurriedly clarified:

"But there was a masked man in black who captured me, put a knife to my neck, and forced me to elope with you... I was also forced... I didn't expect that we would encounter bandits on the way. It must have been arranged by the masked man!"

Jiang Rong raised her eyebrows coldly, "Masked man? Explain clearly."

"I've never seen what he looks like. He's just a messenger. I really don't know who his master is behind the scenes!" Shen Wenyuan told the truth.

Jiang Rong said, "Since you know nothing, drag you away and torture you!"

"Wait wait... Although I don't know who he is, I have a clue! At the beginning, I needed to do something and asked him for help, and he arranged it for me! Anyone who can accomplish that must be a big force in the capital!" Shen Wenyuan said evasively.

It was about tampering with the boat for him.

Jiang Rong had guessed it long ago:

"Nonsense, drag it away."

"I really don't know who he is... Help..."

Shen Wenyuan was dragged away wailing.

After a severe torture, Jingzhe determined that Shen Wenyuan knew nothing.

As for how to contact that person? Shen Wenyuan also confessed. He hung a lantern in the Wenqu Temple in the north of the city and waited for the other party to send someone to find him.

The last time the other party was willing to help him, the condition they gave was that at the right time, they let him do another thing against Jiang Rong.

What exactly will happen and when will it be done? Wait for news.

Finally, the dying Shen Wenyuan was carried in front of Jiang Rong.

"Jiang Rong, please forgive me for the sake of our past friendship. I used to be so good to you..." Shen Wenyuan hated her so much in his heart, but he looked pitiful on the surface.

In the past, Shen Wenyuan had indeed treated her very well.

But that was because Master Shen was still in exile. He was determined to become the son-in-law of the Earl's family and greedily coveted the property left by Earl Zhongyi.

It made her sick to think of it.

Jiang Rong pulled out the dagger he was carrying, and without wasting time talking to him, he stabbed him in the heart.

Blood splattered everywhere.

"Haha——" Shen Wenyuan's eyes were full of unwillingness and he stared at Jiang Rong with resentment, but he could do nothing and died.

Jingzhe dragged Shen Wenyuan's body down.

Chushu came back from the front and reported: "The Fan family is still waiting for the target to appear, and there has been no unusual movement so far."

Xie Lingxi ordered, "You secretly take someone to follow Shen Baiting back to Beijing, just in case."

"Yes." Chushu accepted the order and left.

These people from the Shen family had nothing to do with Xie Lingxi. But because of Jiang Rong, he also protected them.

Jiang Rong raised his eyes and looked at Xie Lingxi, his eyebrows slightly curved, gentle as a spring breeze, completely different from the cold and fierce man who had just killed someone.

"Husband, let's go back too. Please accompany me."

"No need to bother."

Even if Jiang Rong didn't come, he would send people to kill him.

Jiang Rong looked at the handsome nobleman in front of her. She didn't know how he developed such a cold personality. When facing the girl he loved, he was serious and didn't get close to her.

If she hadn't known from the beginning that Xie Lingxi was in love with her, seeing how cold he was, she really wouldn't have been able to tell what he meant.

Her husband was cold and indifferent, so of course she had to make the effort to be intimate with him!

Jiang Rong leaned back deliberately.

Xie Lingxi immediately hugged her slender waist, the tension in his eyes was hard to hide, "What's wrong?"

"Frightened by blood." Jiang Rong leaned softly in Xie Lingxi's arms, "I want my husband to carry me back."

Jingzhe on the side said: Take a look at how many people you have killed before you say that?

But his master was very cooperative. He held the little girl in his arms and walked straight into the carriage.

People will only act like a spoiled child to those who indulge them.

Xie Lingxi only indulged Jiang Rong.
