"By the way, second brother, how did you get in by avoiding all these layers of guards? It's a good thing you came. If you hadn't come, I would have been driven crazy."
Shen Ningyuan looked at Shen Haoyue with hope.
I hope to hear from him that what happened outside is over.
The An Ning Marquis' Mansion has been convicted, the evidence is conclusive, and the execution will be carried out on a date to be determined.
But she never expected that Shen Haoyue did not answer her question, but instead said with a gloomy look.
"Sister, tell me the truth. What agreement did you reach with Xie Wanzhou? Why did he go to such great lengths to help you?"
Faced with such questioning, the smile on Shen Ningyuan's face froze instantly.
I was a little overwhelmed for a moment.
He lowered his head slightly, hiding all the complex emotions in his eyes.
The relationship between the two of them is very delicate.
It’s not wrong to call it a cooperative relationship, but it’s much closer than an ordinary partnership.
To be more precise, Xie Wanzhou had ulterior motives towards her.
Otherwise, why would Xie Wanzhou help her escape from suffering?
There is always a reason.
It’s just that Shen Ningyuan did a lot of things, but when facing her closest relatives, she didn’t know how to speak.
I can only remain silent.
In such a situation, silence already explains a lot of problems.
Shen Haoyue staggered two steps backward uncontrollably.
He stretched out his hand and pointed at her tremblingly, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Sister, you... you are so confused! If you really don't want to stay in the An Ning Marquis Mansion, why don't you tell me, my elder brother, and my father? Why go to such a faraway place and ask for help from an outsider?"
Shen Ningyuan really didn't know how to answer.
Does it mean that in the previous life, I didn't ask Xie Wanzhou for help, nor did I reach any agreement with him.
But after being deceived by Ji Yunchuan, the entire Shen Mansion was implicated, and none of the more than one hundred people in the mansion were spared.
This topic is really too heavy.
Of course she couldn't say it.
The reason why a secret is a secret is that it cannot be told to anyone.
It can only rot in my heart.
Shen Haoyue knew that she was stubborn and would never change her decision.
But at this time, I still felt a little resentful.
He sighed deeply and tried hard to suppress the unhappiness in his heart.
He spoke earnestly.
"Forget it! Now that things have come to this, there's no point in saying anything more. I won't ask what happened, but you must remember that the door of my home is always open to you."
Shen Ningyuan felt bitter in her heart.
He took a slight step forward, turned his back to his second brother, and spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Brother, I know everything..."
The bloody lesson from the previous life was so unforgettable.
She didn't dare to forget for even a moment.
With a light sigh, Shen Ningyuan calmed down a little before asking again.
"Second brother, you haven't told me what's going on outside? Has the guilt been determined?"
Shen Ningyuan did not ask about the divorce.
Just because Xie Wanzhou is involved in this matter, there will definitely not be any accidents.
Shen Haoyue shook his head, his words unable to conceal his sadness.
"Thanks to Xie Wanzhou for mediating and producing substantial evidence, the evidence is irrefutable and cannot be refuted by anyone, not even Xie Yumin."
Shen Ningyuan's originally depressed mood changed instantly.
He turned around suddenly, looking at Shen Haoyue with bright eyes, eager to verify.
"Really? Really? Please don't lie to me! Has the specific date for the beheading been set?"
The corner of Shen Haoyue's mouth twitched uncontrollably.
My sister really hates the Ji family.
She could say such a bloody and cruel thing without changing her expression.
Presumably, Shen Ningyuan has never had a peaceful day in the An Ning Marquis Mansion.
I have to say, Shen Haoyue really told the truth.
Staring at her with hopeful eyes, Shen Haoyue slowly nodded.
"How could I have ever lied to you? Collaborating with the enemy and committing treason is a grave crime punishable by extermination of all property and genocide. Furthermore, since the evidence is irrefutable, there is no room for maneuver. In two days, all members of the Ji family will be beheaded at the Meridian Gate."
Shen Ningyuan smiled so hard that her teeth were showing, and an extreme joy rose from the bottom of her heart.
Finally!
Finally, revenge is coming!
That’s great!
This was the first time she felt so refreshed since she came back.
It seemed as if all the haze in my heart dissipated quickly at this moment.
No longer exists.
A slight smile first appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then the smile grew bigger and bigger, and her laughter became brighter and more flamboyant.
Shen Haoyue looked at her like this, but felt extremely sad.
There was a dark look in his eyes.
If I didn't know clearly that my sister was in a bad mood, I really would have wanted to ask her without hesitation.
What exactly happened to her in the An Ning Marquis Mansion?
Why such a drastic change in personality?
After Shen Ningyuan calmed down, Shen Haoyue patted her shoulder gently and gave her instructions in a complicated tone.
"The divorce documents have been prepared by Jingzhao Prefecture, and Yi Ge will deliver them tomorrow. From now on, you are no longer a wife of the Ji family, but a daughter of the Shen family."
Shen Ningyuan nodded hurriedly, extremely excited and overjoyed.
Shen Haoyue looked up and looked out the window. The night was getting darker.
"Just wait patiently, and don't do anything unnecessary. Well, it's getting late, I'm leaving now."
Shen Ningyuan naturally agreed readily.
He walked the man all the way to the gate of the yard until the night engulfed his second brother's figure.
Shen Ningyuan then withdrew her gaze, humming a cheerful tune and walking briskly towards the house.
A dreamless night.
The next day, just after breakfast, Yi Ge came back with the divorce documents.
Shen Ningyuan looked at the small document and almost cried with joy.
His fingertips caressed the document delicately, unable to let go.
This small piece of paper can allow her to leave the An Ning Marquis Mansion safely and with her dowry in broad daylight.
No one dared to stop it, no one dared to stop it.
Just because she had the divorce documents in her hand, she no longer had any connection with the An Ning Marquisate.
And with the beheading of the Ji family members, all the hatred was wiped out.
All the things in the past, dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth.
And Shen Ningyuan also wants to start a new life.
Don't dwell on the painful past.
However, to truly wait until everything is settled, I have to see with my own eyes tomorrow that all the members of the Ji family have their heads chopped off.
Yi Ge looked at the young lady who seemed to be in a trance, and after thinking about it for a long time, he asked in a low voice.
"Miss, when are we going back?"
Where to go back to? Of course, back to the Shen Mansion!
Shen Ningyuan's wandering thoughts gradually returned. She tilted her head and looked at Yi Ge with a sweet smile.
"Before, I hadn't received the divorce documents yet, and I was always worried, afraid that something might go wrong."
