Chapter 317: The Shen Family



Chapter 317: The Shen Family

Shen Ningyuan rubbed his sore temples and couldn't help but sigh.

"Forget it. I know that I am just scaring myself. But there has been no news and I am really panicking."

At this point, Shen Ningyuan seemed to suddenly think of something.

He looked at Ling Qing with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

The meaning is self-evident.

Ling Qing naturally understood what she meant. He tightened his face and shook his head seriously.

“Miss Shen, there’s no way I’m leaving here.”

Halfway through her words, Ling Qing saw that her expression had become very bad, and hurriedly explained.

"Miss Shen, please don't misunderstand. The master repeatedly told me to protect your safety and not to leave even a step."

Shen Ningyuan's eyes rolled around.

Seeing that she wanted to say something to encourage her, Ling Qing spoke directly.

"Miss Shen, please don't embarrass me! I am just following orders and must not disobey the master's orders. Besides, the Marquis' Mansion is surrounded by the Royal Guards. It is impossible to leave."

In fact, it is easy to leave, but it is absolutely impossible to sneak into the mansion again without anyone noticing.

A few days ago, the master sneaked into the mansion at a huge cost.

That's why the commander of the Royal Guard turned a blind eye.

And such a thing can only happen once and not twice.

If the truth comes out, no one can take the responsibility.

After all, the An Ning Marquisate committed a heinous crime that implicated nine generations of the clan.

Although Xie Yumin spoke up to defend him in the court, the correspondence had already made the matter a done deal, and there was no way he could clear his name.

The reason why there has been no judgment on the people in the Ji Mansion is simply because Ji Yunchuan's whereabouts have not been found.

We don't even know whether he is alive or dead, so we have these few days of buffer time.

Of course, Shen Ningyuan naturally didn't know the situation.

Seeing Ling Qing's firm attitude, she didn't want to embarrass him any more, so she simply waved her hand, indicating that he could leave now.

Ling Qing was a little worried, so he tried to persuade her kindly.

"Miss Shen, just wait for the news from your master. Don't do anything unnecessary. Everything in the mansion is under surveillance..."

Shen Ningyuan nodded impatiently.

How could she not know these things?

In the blink of an eye, dusk fell.

Chen Ningyuan looked at the sky, the last ray of sunlight disappeared, and she felt sad.

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, another day has passed.

There is less than a day left until the agreed time, but my mood is getting heavier.

Chen Ningyuan had no intention of sleeping at all, so she moved a recliner and sat down under the long corridor in the courtyard.

He stared absentmindedly at the waning moon in the sky.

The morning breeze, the waning moon, and the rustling of leaves created a desolate scene.

Just like her mood at the moment.

Shen Ningyuan even thought that if she couldn't escape this disaster, she must kill Chen first.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to get rid of the anger in her heart.

The original plan was to have Chen beheaded in front of the Meridian Gate and be cursed by thousands of people.

Maybe the situation has changed now.

Another gust of cool wind blew over, and Shen Ningyuan sneezed uncontrollably.

"The night wind is cold, why don't you go inside? You, you, I don't know what to say to you, you still don't take care of yourself."

Shen Ningyuan was startled when she heard this familiar voice.

He stood up from the rocking chair with a thud, turned his neck stiffly, and stared blankly at Shen Haoyue who appeared in front of him.

I can't believe it. How could my second brother appear here?

How come he is here?

Little did they know that the reason why Shen Haoyue was able to sneak into the Marquis' Mansion was because of the changes in the court.

It was also because Xie Wanzhou intervened and exposed his identity in advance.

Your Majesty has paid less attention to the Marquis' Mansion.

The commander of the Imperial Guards, along with many other Imperial Guards, had been staying outside the palace for a few days, but nothing had happened.

Although it was a patrol shift, everyone was already exhausted after following the high intensity of every move around them for several days.

Shen Haoyue just saw the right opportunity, and when he saw that the patrol was slack, he sneaked in quietly.

The commander of the Imperial Guard adopted the principle of being strong outside and loose inside when besieging the An Ning Marquis' Mansion.

At nightfall, not much attention was paid to the women in the backyard.

No matter what, Chen Ningyuan is now the master of An Ning Marquis Mansion and the legitimate daughter of the general who guards the country.

The commander of the Royal Guards naturally did not dare to do anything that would damage her reputation.

After all, no one knows whether Shen Ningyuan will leave peacefully in the end?

But once she divorced and returned home to the residence of the great general who guards the country, she would become that unattainable existence again.

Being convenient to others is also being convenient to yourself.

How could the commander of the Royal Guard not know about this?

So for many things, we naturally turn a blind eye.

As long as there is no violation of principles, I will not meddle in other people's business.

Shen Ningyuan stared at Shen Haoyue in silence and choking. After a long time, it seemed as if she had found her lost language system.

He spoke in a hoarse, trembling voice.

"Second brother, why are you here? Are father and mother okay? I..."

Having said this, Shen Ningyuan couldn't say any more and burst into tears, with big drops of tears rolling down her cheeks.

Shen Haoyue knew that she was feeling depressed.

The reason for this was, of course, that two days ago, Xie Wanzhou secretly found him and told him about what happened to Shen Ningyuan in An Ning Hou Mansion.

And what is happening now.

After Shen Haoyue heard the whole story, he felt guilty and uneasy.

I never imagined that in a corner where I couldn't see, my sister had suffered so much hardship, and even been in danger several times and almost lost her life.

Fortunately, thanks to Xie Wanzhou's help, I was able to escape in time.

Then, before he had fully digested everything, Xie Wanzhou told him about the next plan.

It’s because this plan requires Shen Haoyue’s cooperation.

The two discussed it and reached a consensus.

It was a long time after Xie Wanzhou left that Shen Haoyue finally realized that Xie Wanzhou was not as simple as he seemed, and wasn't he disabled in both legs?

how……

After listening to his second brother's story, Shen Ningyuan's eyes twitched uncontrollably.

After a long time, he changed the subject.

"Actually, this is a long story..."

Shen Haoyue knew what his sister was thinking, so he snorted coldly and interrupted her directly.

"It's a long story, so let's make it short. If it doesn't work, it doesn't hurt to explain it one by one. Anyway, it's still early now, and I have a night to tell you slowly."

Shen Ningyuan was directly speechless.

He hesitated for a long time, but didn't know what to say.

He coughed unnaturally and his eyes were wandering.

After considering for a while, he finally decided to change the subject.
