In her previous life, Shen Ning exhausted all her efforts to protect her younger siblings, vowing never to marry. However, after a lifetime of toil, she ended up raising two ungrateful wretches. He...
"I'm going to kill Shen Shu."
Xiao Ruyi made no attempt to hide her hatred, and she looked as if she wanted to devour someone.
Shen Ning neither commented nor approved, nor did she try to stop it; it was none of her business anyway.
Xiao Ruyi's expression turned pained: "But I can't kill her. Han Yin protects her like the apple of his eye. I just don't understand, what is it about such a woman that makes him so infatuated?"
Shen Ning raised her eyes and looked at her meaningfully: "Yes, Shen Shu has been married, been pregnant, and has such a bad reputation. Why can Han Yin ignore these things that men care about and love Shen Shu to death? Shen Shu is not a stunning beauty, and she is extremely selfish. What does Han Yin love about her?"
Xiao Ruyi looked at Shen Ning, only to see her smile: "You're always thinking about dealing with Shen Shu. Do you think she's worthy of being your enemy? If one path doesn't work, why not try a different approach and look for problems with Han Yin?"
"Why did he choose Shen Shu? Why did it have to be Shen Shu? If he only liked Shen Shu as a person, he could have kept her as a mistress secretly. You might not even know she existed even after the child was born. Why did he have to be so ostentatious and not afraid of being found out?"
She picked up her teacup, gestured, and took a sip: "It's not so much that he's not afraid you'll know, but rather that he absolutely needs you to know. He tells you everything, big and small. What do you think his purpose is?"
After finishing her tea and putting down her cup, Shen Ning stood up and said, "I have other things to attend to, so I won't keep Mrs. Han company any longer. Farewell."
He looked deeply at the woman before him, who was caught in a whirlpool without realizing it, then turned and left.
That's all the advice she can offer.
In her past life, she sensed that Han Yin wanted to use Shen Shu to ruin Xiao Ruyi, but Shen Ning didn't know why he was so determined to force his wife to her death.
If he simply wanted to change wives, Han Yin ultimately married Shen Shu, who was not from a high-ranking family.
If it's said that everything is because Han Yin truly loves Shen Shu, then looking at the process of their relationship, he mistreats Shen Shu in every way and seems to be using her in every way.
Shen Ning only wanted Shen Shu and Han Yin to suffer a bad end; she had no interest in the deeper truth, and that was for Xiao Ruyi to find out for herself.

After Shen Ning left, he quickly went to his destination, a restaurant, where Wei Congwen and Liang Zhuo asked for a private room to drink.
He Xiao also requested a room next to the two of them to facilitate eavesdropping, and even disguised himself as a waiter to go in several times.
Shen Ning did not go there in person, but instead went across the street, pretending to inspect his own shop.
Not long after, He Xiao came over to report: "Master, they met someone who seems to be the son of Wang Mazi, the steward of the Lin family."
Shen Ning perked up: "The Lin family, the Lin family that Lin Shikai is from?"
He Xiao nodded: "Yes, Wang Mazi's son is named Wang Fugui. He often gambles at the gambling den on West Street. I wouldn't mistake him."
Shen Ning understood that Wei Congwen must have known that going through Han Yin was not an option, so he turned to the Lin family, who were closest to the Han family.
Don't be fooled by Lin Shikai's current demotion. In his past life, he and the Han family joined forces and were great contributors to the rise of the new emperor. After the Luo family's downfall, the court was in Lin Shikai's hands.
It's not surprising that Wei Congwen chose him, but it's unclear what he used to persuade Lin Shikai.
It's important to understand that Lin Shikai's demotion was inextricably linked to Shen Shu, considering all the causes and consequences.
However, just when Shen Ning thought Wei Congwen had chosen the Sixth Prince's path again, he gave her another surprise.
After parting ways with Liang Zhuo, he went to see someone else alone, who turned out to be a staff member of King Zhao.
Shen Ning: "......"
Sure enough, having the memories of being an official in his previous life makes all the difference. The indecisive coward from before now dares to have his cake and eat it too.
"Let's keep an eye on things." She was certain that Wei Congwen would put on a good show for her; the best was yet to come.
No one knows what kind of spell Wei Congwen and the Lin family cast on Liang Zhuo, making him continue to go back to the training camp to be beaten. Unfortunately, he wasn't as lucky this time.
Someone deliberately dragged him onto the stage to compete, openly beating him. When they knocked him off the stage, he happened to fall onto a protruding rock, breaking Liang Zhuo's spine.
It is said that the bone pierced through the skin and flesh and went out, and he almost lost his life.
This was an accident...
This means that Liang Zhuo will no longer be able to serve in the Imperial Guards; in fact, it's questionable whether he can even stand up again.
He's not dead, but disabled; he's probably ruined.
This result was unexpected for Shen Ning, but it was good.
Living like this is no more comfortable than being dead.
Yu Zhu came in, looking confused: "Miss, Aunt Liang is here. She's crying so hard she can barely stand."
Shen Ning made up her mind and threw the letter in her hand into the brazier: "Let her in."
"Waaah, Miss... Ah Ning..."
Aunt Liang came in crying all the way, her steps unsteady, her expression grief-stricken and panicked. She scrambled to Shen Ning's side and knelt down on the ground.
"Young Miss, I beg you, I beg you to help me summon a royal physician to save Zhuo'er... I beg you to save Zhuo'er..."
She cried bitterly, her eyes pleading, clutching Shen Ning's sleeve as if grasping at a last straw.
Shen Ning didn't help her up; she had been just as heartbroken when she learned of Liu Ying's death.
She left the capital to deal with the caravan's affairs, and it was only a month or so. Before she left, Sister Liuying was still nagging beside her, but when she returned, she only saw her corpse. She had been beaten to death by Liang Zhuo, resulting in the death of both her and her unborn child. She was so thin that she was unrecognizable, with not a single piece of good flesh on her body.
