Seeing her face getting uglier, Sheng Hongye's smile widened: "Madam Qin, my conditions are very simple. All you need is... to give the Qin Mansion to me."
"What?!" Old Madam Qin stood up suddenly in shock, her face full of displeasure and she almost cursed Sheng Hongye.
"Madam Qin, I must have my reasons for doing this." Sheng Hongye shook his head and explained, "I understand how much harm Sheng Yunrong has done to your Qin family. But now the property has attracted the attention of many people.
The lowest price was one million taels, and the highest was even 70 million taels. It is obviously not worthwhile for me to take such a huge risk and transfer this priceless property to your name."
Old Madam Qin swallowed and was speechless for a moment.
Oh my god!
The Qin Mansion where she currently lives has a total asset of only over 700,000 taels!
Compared with the huge sum of 70 million taels, what is the Qin Mansion?
"Okay! I promise you!" Old Madam Qin made up her mind decisively, "I will fulfill my promise to you now!"
She was afraid that Sheng Hongye would go back on his word, so she hurriedly took him to the Qin Mansion to retrieve the house deed.
Sheng Hongye had a smug smile on his face.
I didn't expect my sister's strategy to be so flawless, allowing Old Madam Qin to easily hand over the Qin Mansion to them.
Madam Qin, Madam Qin...
Sheng Hongye looked at Madam Qin's back with a serious gaze, with a cold look in his eyes.
You have framed my sister to this extent. Now I am only letting you experience the pain of living on the streets. You are lucky.
In the Sheng residence, Sheng Yunrong and Sheng Hongxiao clearly felt that the neighboring officials no longer paid attention to them.
They both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. This made it easier for them to act.
However……
Thinking of the rumor that Prince Jing was about to go to the border to fight, Sheng Yunrong couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Prince Jing went to the border, and Mo Yuan was in the palace, and no one knew how he would respond.
Sheng Yunrong decided to write a letter and entrusted Xiang Zhu to deliver it to the palace.
She had almost dealt with the Qin family's incident, and all that was left was the finale of the drama.
Now, even if Mo Yuan follows her, he will not suffer any hardship.
If Mo Yuan cannot stay safely in the palace before Prince Jing returns, it would be better to bring him back.
Sheng Hongxiao agreed with Sheng Yunrong's plan.
As long as Sheng Yunrong approved, Sheng Hongxiao never had any objection.
Sheng Hongxiao used Sheng Yunrong's special talents to register with the emperor, and tried his best to reduce the royal family's attention to Sheng Yunrong.
At present, Sheng Hongye is helping Sheng Yunrong deal with the affairs of the Qin family. He can finally spare some time to help his sister solve this difficult problem.
"Sister." Sheng Hongxiao said gently, "You rest at home. I will investigate whether there are other spies hidden among the officials who bought the property. By then, my brother and I will accompany you to the palace and report everything to the emperor."
"Okay." Sheng Yunrong nodded slightly and smiled, making Sheng Hongxiao feel at ease.
Sheng Hongxiao reminded her again and again, and Sheng Yunrong also repeatedly assured him that she would not go out without permission, so he left with peace of mind.
Sheng Yunrong was waiting quietly in the Sheng residence.
With the company of her eldest and second brothers, her burden was indeed much lighter.
Sheng Yunrong sat quietly on a stone chair outside the courtyard, her eyes penetrating the sparse leaves, waiting patiently.
However, the suspense was like a fog, lingering in her mind - when would she be able to reunite with her parents?
Suddenly, a knock on the door broke the silence.
Xiang Zhu's voice came through the door: "Miss, I'm back."
Sheng Yunrong hurriedly opened the gate.
Xiang Zhu's face was solemn, as if he had countless unspeakable secrets in his heart, and he was eager to tell Sheng Yunrong.
Sheng Yunrong quickly led her into the room and asked her questions in detail.
"What happened?"
Xiang Zhu eagerly took out a letter from her sleeve: "Miss, I went to Prince Jing's mansion to deliver the letter, but I was unable to see the young master. His Royal Highness Prince Jing was not in the mansion either. It was said that he had lost Master Tu Su's mansion."
There has been no news or rumors about Master Tu Su for more than ten days, as if he had disappeared from this world.
Sheng Yunrong fell into deep thought.
Master Tu Su has always been a bohemian person, and there is no way he would be content with a dull life in the capital.
Especially in the capital where Prince Jing was, the two of them were like shadows following each other, traveling all day long.
Prince Jing is about to go to war, and this is the most critical moment.
However, he did not go to the army to train the soldiers, but went to Master Tu Su's mansion, and even brought Mo Yuan with him...
This matter is of great importance and may even shake the foundation of the country.
When she thought of Mo Yuan, Sheng Yunrong's heart unconsciously became nervous.
We must not sit idly by!
She must go and investigate in person before she can feel at ease!
Although the relationship between the emperor and Prince Jing has been restored, the two live in harmony and support each other.
But that doesn't mean others don't have ambitions.
Since there is a Concubine Liu who attempts to usurp the throne, there are countless potential Concubines Liu who covet the imperial power.
Moreover, Mo Yuan is at the core of power and is the son of Prince Jing...
"Xiang Zhu, come out with me once." Sheng Yunrong said resolutely.
"As you wish." Xiang Zhu responded hastily. After walking for a while, she suddenly remembered something. "Oh, Miss, on my way home, I met the messenger who often delivered letters for us. He said that this was sent from the mountain village a few days ago, but he had been negligent and forgot to deliver it."
She handed over an exquisite treasure bag.
Sheng Yunrong opened the brocade bag and found inside was the jade pendant that Deng Wan had lost.
Her fingertips trembled slightly as she looked at the exquisite patterns on the jade pendant, almost unable to breathe.
This was... sent by Qin Huaiyu.
The jade pendant that once caused Deng Wan's death was actually picked up by Qin Huaiyu.
"Miss, here is another letter." Xiang Zhu handed over the letter.
Sheng Yunrong glanced at the signature on the letter:
Written by my mother.
Sheng Yunrong's eyes slowly grew solemn. The jade pendant in her hand was icy cold, as if the chill penetrated through her body temperature and seeped all the way into her heart.
"Burn it." She turned away resolutely, without a trace of warmth in her tone.
Xiang Zhu was slightly startled before responding, "As you wish."
He originally held on to the illusion that as time went by, the young lady would show leniency to the young lady.
But now it seems... that hope has vanished.
Sheng Yunrong left a note with the words "safe and sound" written on it, and hurried away with Xiang Zhu, her figure gradually disappearing into the night.
Their departure was silent, no one noticed, and no one knew that they were about to set foot into the depths of the Tu Su Mansion.
Qin Mansion.
After some searching, Old Madam Qin finally found the title deed of the Qin Mansion. She hurriedly signed her name, stamped her handprint, and then handed it to Sheng Hongye.
Sheng Hongye held the Qin Mansion title deed worth 700,000 taels in his hand, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The Qin Mansion worth 700,000 taels was not easily obtained.
He thought, after he handed the land deed to the real estate developer, he should be able to sell it quickly, right?
"Okay, Madam Qin, please get ready and move out immediately." Sheng Hongye put away the title deed.
