Hearing someone call her name, Yang Shuhuan turned around in a panic and tried to run away.

In her current state, the only motivation that keeps her alive is revenge.

She wanted to tear Xiao Xuan and Ning Yin, that despicable couple, to pieces and trample their heads under her feet.

Yang Shuhuan gritted her teeth in hatred, dropped the wooden bucket, and was about to return to the slave camp.

Shen Jia looked up at the words "Sinner Camp," then at Yang Shuhuan's disheveled figure, and couldn't help but follow.

"Yang Shuhuan, is that you? Why are you hiding from me? How did you end up like this?"

Shen Jia called out to Yang Shuhuan, and Yang Shuhuan's heart clenched. She finally realized that the person behind her was Shen Jia. Her expression brightened, and she was about to turn around when she saw an old eunuch walking towards her.

This old eunuch was the chief eunuch of the slave camp. He was arrogant and would beat and scold the servants at the drop of a hat. He had a peculiar hobby: torturing women, especially beautiful ones.

He felt that these beautiful women were born to annoy him, constantly hovering in front of him, yet he couldn't enjoy them.

The old eunuch, having spent so long in the slave camp, became increasingly psychologically disturbed.

Yang Shuhuan was considered one of the most beautiful women there. At first, she would resist, but the result of her resistance was that she would be beaten up.

She also tried to send a message to Marquis Wuding using her jewelry, but the jewelry was swallowed and the message disappeared without a trace.

The people here are like dogs fighting each other, no one gives an inch. If you can curry favor with the old eunuch, you can at least get a good meal and a good night's sleep.

In the end, Yang Shuhuan had no choice but to submit to the old eunuch. The old eunuch saw that she was good at handling things and felt sorry for her. He said that as long as she served him well for a year, he would let her walk around freely in the slave camp.

As for sending a letter to Marquis Wuding, the old eunuch wasn't stupid. He had bullied the man's daughter; how could Marquis Wuding possibly forgive him?

It was all just a tactic he used to manipulate Yang Shuhuan.

Sometimes, when the old eunuch went mad, he would accidentally hurt Yang Shuhuan. Every night, when the old eunuch was asleep, Yang Shuhuan wished she could strangle him with her own hands.

Even if she killed the old eunuch, she couldn't escape this slave camp. It was full of palace guards; where could she possibly go?

Moreover, a sinner who commits murder is subject to the punishment of slow slicing; she has not yet avenged herself, so how can she die so easily?

Besides ingratiating herself with the old eunuchs, she also tried to please the palace maids and eunuchs who had the opportunity to deliver clothes to various palaces.

Perhaps they can bring us some useful information.

This morning, a palace maid who delivered clothes to the Hall of Mental Cultivation came back and complained to her that the emperor seemed to be planning to take a concubine for the crown prince.

Yang Shuhuan never expected that the position of the principal wife would be taken by that bitch Ning Yin.

Thinking about it, Yang Shuhuan clenched her fists so tightly they cracked. She stood there, neither turning her head nor saying a word.

The old eunuch opposite was staring at Yang Shuhuan with a lecherous look. After a moment, his gaze swept past Yang Shuhuan and looked at Shen Jia.

Yang Shuhuan bowed respectfully and greeted, "Steward Li..."

The old eunuch grunted in acknowledgment, continued to stare at Shen Jia, and then asked, "You two know each other?"

Yang Shuhuan knew perfectly well that if Steward Li knew that she and Shen Jia were acquainted, he would keep an even closer watch on her.

She could only pretend not to know him so that she could find an opportunity to ask Shen Jia to deliver the letter for her.

Yang Shuhuan's mind worked quickly, and she immediately shook her head, "How could this servant know such an important person? Steward Li, this servant has made you a pair of shoes, I'll take them to you right away."

After saying that, Yang Shuhuan quickly headed towards her room.

"This distinguished person, do you know her?"

As soon as Steward Li and the others left, he stepped forward a few steps, his face full of cunning and shrewdness.

Seeing that the man's expression was somewhat improper, Shen Jia quickly took two steps back, "I don't know him, I don't know him!"

"I have something to do, I'll be going now..."

When Shen Jia walked out of the slave camp, she felt that the air was suddenly much fresher. The scene inside had made her feel very oppressed and terrified.

Especially seeing those tattered-clothed maids doing hard labor with expressionless faces, Shen Jia felt a chill run down her spine for some reason.

"Let's go!"

Shen Jia didn't dwell on Yang Shuhuan's matter any longer; taking her benefactor to see a doctor was the most important thing.

However, she was certain that the person just now was indeed Yang Shuhuan. Seeing Yang Shuhuan's current disheveled appearance, Shen Jia didn't feel much.

She had long seen through Yang Shuhuan's hypocritical and insincere behavior of refusing to help someone in distress.

Now that she's ended up in this state, it's all her own fault. This is just as well, it saves her the trouble of doing it herself.

As for what Yang Shujing had bet on her, she would get it back little by little.

Thinking of what she had witnessed at Lanqu Garden yesterday, even if Shen Jia was foolish, she knew that Marquis Wuding was preparing to rebel.

Now that her brother has sided with the Second Prince, she is in a dilemma: should she tell her brother or the Crown Prince the news?

Before long, the two arrived at the gate of the East Palace. Shen Jia stepped forward and bowed.

"My lords, I am Shen Jia from the General's Mansion. Could you please inform Her Majesty that I have urgent business to discuss with the Crown Princess?"

The Qingyu Guards felt contemptuous as they listened to Shen Jia introduce herself. Shen Jia was Shen Yun's sister, and Shen Yun had already pledged allegiance to the Second Prince. How could she still have the nerve to come here?

The leading Qingyu Guard gave her a cold glance.

"So you are General Shen's sister. Our Crown Princess has been unwell recently and is probably not able to receive guests. Miss Shen, please leave!"

The Qingyu Guards showed no mercy to Shen Jia and quickly ordered her to leave.

"My lords, could you please help me? I really have something important to discuss with you."
