The Capital's Wude Division.
"Prince, there's a letter from the Crown Prince's wife."
"Bang!"
The handsome man in the green flying fish suit tripped over his chair in excitement.
With red eyes, he looked at his confidant excitedly and asked expectantly,
"Who, you say?"
"The Crown Prince's wife sent a letter to the Crown Prince from Ganzhou Prefecture."
The director of the Wude Department is Chen Mingxu, the eldest son of the Yongyi Marquis and the legitimate son of the Yongyi Marquis.
Chen Mingxu excitedly snatched the letter. The seven characters "Personally from the Director of the Wude Department" written in a flamboyant style were from Feng Jingran's handwriting.
Chen Mingxu suppressed his inner excitement and opened the envelope expectantly, only to find another letter inside, but the handwriting was unfamiliar.
Chen Mingxu opened the letter and when he saw the contents clearly, his face had turned frighteningly dark.
He searched many times but found nothing else, and fell into the chair in despair.
The light in his eyes was gone, replaced by a deep sorrow.
Chen Mingxu was replaced by panic. The person he cared about did not say a word to him.
The confidant looked at them worriedly and said cautiously, "Prince, could it be that the Crown Prince's wife and the young master and young lady..."
Chen Mingxu raised his hand to stop his confidant from finishing his words, "Wipe the tail clean. I don't want anyone else to know about this letter."
The confidant clasped his fists in agreement, and he would not ask unless the master said anything.
Since the master did not say who the third person is, there must be a reason why the prince did not tell him.
"Go find Duke Shen and bring him to the Wude Division." Chen Mingxu was now the cold-blooded director of the Wude Division.
"Yes!" As the confidant turned to leave, "Be careful, avoid the crowd, especially avoid people from the Duke's Mansion, and let him come alone."
After the confidant left, someone came to report, "Director, Miss Shen has brought lunch to you, sir."
Chen Mingxu's eyes darkened, and he put the letter into the secret compartment and ordered in a deep voice, "Tell her to wait in the office."
The office is where official business is handled.
The office is a place where people come and go, where suspicion can be avoided and unnecessary trouble can be avoided. No one can enter this place except that person.
When Shen Peifang heard that she was being taken to the office, her eyes immediately filled with anger. In order to avoid being seen through, she lowered her eyes to hide her resentment.
When she looked up again, she still had that gentle and sweet look on her face, "Thank you for your help, sir."
The messenger smiled and said he didn't dare. Shen Peifang chatted with the messenger calmly.
The messenger was flattered by a noble lady who looked like a banished immortal, and he told her everything he knew.
Shen Peifang didn't hear anything valuable, so she gave up trying to deal with the messenger. At the same time, the director arrived.
When the people in the office saw Shen Peifang coming, they all greeted her warmly and politely.
Shen Peifang had the food distributed to everyone.
That's right, everyone.
Everyone in the department has a share.
The people in the department respected and admired Shen Peifang even more.
Chen Mingxu couldn't help but frown as he looked at the lively scene in front of him. Shen Peifang walked quickly to him with shining eyes. Seeing that he looked unhappy, she thought he was jealous.
Shen Peifang hid her joy and brought out the food enthusiastically.
The people in the office brought their meals and ate in their own areas.
His ears were automatically blocked. It turned out that their director really valued the eldest daughter of Duke Shen's family.
They all ate food that Miss Shen sent them, but they were jealous.
They don't want to offend anyone and just hide in the corner to eat their own food!
"I've already eaten. Miss Shen, please don't act like this again. It's detrimental to Miss Shen's reputation." Chen Mingxu pushed the food back.
Shen Peifang looked at Chen Mingxu with tears in her eyes. She looked so sad and helpless, with tears welling up in her eyes, that she looked quite touching.
But Chen Mingxu acted as if he hadn't noticed and ordered in a cold voice, "Come here, send Miss Shen out."
"Brother Mingxu...are you really so heartless?" Shen Peifang's accusation made Chen Mingxu's face turn cold.
"Ms. Shen, please call me Director." After saying this, Chen Mingxu left the office with a gloomy face.
He wanted to play along with her, but... Feng Jingran's letter made him lose the will to deal with her.
Chen Mingxu looked towards Ganzhou Prefecture and breathed a sigh of relief. It was almost there, almost there. Once this was over...
Shen Peifang twirled the brocade handkerchief, revealing an unwilling look where no one could see.
It was fleeting, and then she ran out of Wudesi with her mouth covered.
*
After leaving Wudesi, she was a beautiful and kind lady from a noble family. She then went to the west of Huancheng City and entered a teahouse.
…
When Duke Shen arrived at the Wude Division, he saw Chen Mingxu and asked excitedly, "My dear nephew, do you have any news about my little daughter? Is she okay? Where is she?"
Chen Mingxu nodded.
"Bang!"
Duke Shen slammed the table excitedly, "My dear nephew, can I go find her? Madam will be very happy if she knows, and maybe her illness will be cured."
Duke Shen became more and more excited as he spoke, pacing back and forth excitedly, "No, I'll send someone back to tell Madam the good news. As long as my daughter comes back, Madam will be fine."
Duke Shen was excited and wanted to recruit people, but was stopped by Chen Mingxu, "Duke, don't be in a hurry. Why don't you read Miss Shen's letter before making a decision."
"Why would this child write a letter? She should just go home! My wife and I won't do anything to her. As long as she comes back safely..."
Duke Shen was muttering to himself with a smile, but when he saw the contents, the joy in his eyes was covered by dark clouds. The storm was brewing and eventually turned into a biting frost in winter. His face was gloomy.
After the anger, the frost quickly receded, followed by heartache, and his hands holding the letter shook violently.
"Although there are signs that Peifang was behind Tingyun's disappearance, I was hoping for the best before I had any definitive evidence. But the truth is so cruel. Shen Peifang, she..."
"Puff..." Duke Shen was so angry that he vomited blood.
Ever since Shen Peifang came to their home, Duke Shen and his wife have treated her as their own daughter and taken good care of her. Even after Tingyun was born, they put her first in order to take care of her emotions.
He really treats her as his own child, and he and his wife treat each other sincerely. What about her?
It turned out that under their noses, she had stretched out her evil claws to Tingyun many times, and it was no surprise that she escaped death several times, because it was all her doing.
How old was Shen Tingyun at that time?
She was still a child at a few years old! Her mind was so vicious. For so many years, he had never discovered that under her kind face and sweet smile, she actually hid such a vicious heart.
"I heard that when Miss Shen was in the Duke's wife's belly, she almost had a miscarriage several times."
The truth is cruel, but the confused escape is even crueler.
He had reminded Duke Shen based on the clues he had, but Duke Shen didn't believe it!
Now, will you believe it only when his own daughter reveals the truth, the bloody truth?
"My Lord, what are you going to do?"
Duke Shen folded the letter neatly and carefully placed it in his arms. He straightened his back, his eyes showing determination, "Clean up the house."
