The room was empty except for simple furniture. Zhao Chuchu groped in the direction of the cold and finally opened a secret room.

She walked in cautiously, and what she saw were small ice coffins. The cold air was emitted from the ice coffins.

When Zhao Chuchu saw the person in the ice coffin, her pupils suddenly shrank.

In addition to Little Grape, there were also people lying in the ice coffins, such as Youzi, who Shen Chaomu said was killed by Shen's mother. There were a total of eight ice coffins.

The eight people in the ice coffin had stopped breathing, but they looked like they were asleep.

Zhao Chuchu doesn't think they are not dead.

And the only one who could place the ice coffin here was Shen Chaomu.

Why didn't Chen Chaomu bury them, and why did they look no different from being asleep?

Zhao Chuchu frowned. No matter what, Shen Chaomu was a man with secrets.

Zhao Chuchu didn't have time to think too much. Her main goal was to find Zhang Xiuyuan and Baozi.

After leaving the secret room, Zhao Chuchu investigated the Shen Mansion again.

And from Shen Chaomu's study, candlelight and voices could be heard faintly.

Zhao Chuchu approached carefully and saw two people in the room, one was Shen Chaomu in black, and the other was another hooded man in black with a hoarse and extremely harsh voice.

There was a totem on the hood, exactly the same as the one on the group of people who assassinated her.

So, is Shen Chaomu colluding with them?

Then, was this plague also caused by Shen Chaomu and these people?

"Who is it?"

Just when Zhao Chuchu wanted to get closer and hear clearly what they were saying, the hooded man in black suddenly looked in her direction.

Zhao Chuchu thought to herself, "Oh no! I've been discovered."

At this moment, someone in the darkness pulled Zhao Chuchu away, told her a location, and urged her, "Hurry up."

Zhao Chuchu had no choice but to leave. In the darkness, she saw the man clearly.

She quickly flew towards the location in the Shen Mansion that the man mentioned.

Just as Zhao Chuchu was escaping, the door of the study was opened, and a hooded man in black rushed out like the wind, stretched out his hand and instantly grabbed the neck of the person outside the study.

When Shen Chaomu saw the person outside the study door, his pupils shrank.

I haven't seen him for a while. Has he become like this?

The person whose neck was being strangled by the hooded man in black was Yi Qian.

Yi Qian was still wearing his clothes, but they were empty and he looked so skinny that it was almost impossible to tell what he looked like originally.

"Master Shen, he heard our conversation. What do you think I should do?"

Chen Chaomu looked at Yi Qian, who remained silent from then on, closed his eyes, and said indifferently, "I will leave it to you, Your Excellency."

The hooded man in black laughed and wanted to strangle the man's neck, but suddenly changed his mind and stuffed a pill into Yi Qian's mouth.

"He is the husband of Patriarch Shen. For Patriarch Shen's sake, I will let him go."

As the pill was fed, Yi Qian closed his eyes. Shen Chaomu saw that before Yi Qian closed his eyes, he stared at him, and then his eyes gradually dimmed until they were completely dull.

Veins bulged on Shen Chaomu's clenched hands.

On the other side, Zhang Xiuyuan, who was coaxing Baozi, heard the sound of the door opening. When he saw the person outside the door, Zhang Xiuyuan's breathing stopped.

Zhao Chuchu also saw Zhang Xiuyuan and the little bun in his arms, and was delighted: "Xiuyuan, I'm here to save you."

In the end, Zhao Chuchu took Zhang Xiuyuan and the child away from the Shen Mansion.
