Chapter 23 The mastermind behind this is actually him!

Soon, Miaomiao tiptoed and opened the door of the study.

Seeing that there was no one around, she quickly slipped in, took out a small fire starter from her arms, and searched carefully.

Originally, I thought that the seal of the Marquis' Mansion must be placed in a corner where no one knew about it, but I didn't expect that as soon as I entered the study, I saw the seal on the desk.

It must have been printed out just after some official business, and hasn't been put in the box yet.

This was a piece of cake!

Miaomiao quickly took out the secret letter from her sleeve and quickly stamped it.

Now it works!

With the evidence of treason against the Marquisate, she has completed her mission!

Miaomiao hid the letter under several stacks of calligraphy written by Shen Zongguang, pressed it firmly, and then left on tiptoe, not forgetting to lock the door of the study before leaving.

Unexpectedly, at the window on the other side of the study, Qin Yunshuang and Shen Sikai saw all of this.

"Son, did you see that?" Qin Yunshuang saw Miaomiao walking further and further away, and said, "This woman is clearly coming for our Houfu 3. She is not as simple as you think."

Ever since Miaomiao entered the private room, the people from the Shen family have been secretly watching her movements.

Soon, Qin Yunshuang and his wife learned that Miaomiao was walking towards the study.

Therefore, Qin Yunshuang pulled Shen Sikai to the other side of the study and poked a hole in the window so that he could see the woman's true face with his own eyes.

"This...how is this possible!" Shen Sikai was shocked.

"You won't cry until you see the Yellow River." Shen Zongguang sighed as he returned, "Silly son, come on, I'll take you in to see what this woman did."

Shen Zongguang opened the door of the study and walked in quickly.

Qin Yunshuang quickly found the letter of evidence of treason that Miaomiao had just hidden.

Seeing this scene, the color on Shen Sikai's face suddenly faded——

"Why...why...why is this..."

His first love, the only woman he wanted to marry in his life, the woman he thought would be good to him for the rest of his life, but she did such a thing behind his back to frame their entire mansion!

This is evidence of treason! All the people in the mansion will be executed. Even if they are not killed, their property will be confiscated and they will be exiled and made slaves. The previous prime minister treasoned, and all the women in his family became military prostitutes, and all the men were beheaded and displayed to the public, even one-year-old children were not spared!

He loves her, but this woman wants to kill his entire family!

All my deep affection was thrown away!

All the love during this time is fucking bullshit!

Shen Sikai raised his hand and slapped himself hard. His eyes were bloodshot and he clenched his fists. "Dad, Mom, I am an unfilial son who let a wolf into the house! Don't worry, I will solve the trouble I caused by myself and will never drag down our family!"

Having said that, Shen Sikai took the letter and went to question Miaomiao.

"Don't worry." Shen Zongguang patted Lao Er's shoulder. "Lao Er, you are still young and full of vigor. It is normal for you to be bewitched by a woman."

"It's good that you admit your mistake, but don't go to her to question it first."

"Why?!" Shen Sikai's eyes flushed, and he clenched his fists tightly. "I have to ask her carefully, has her conscience been eaten by a dog? I love her so much, how could she..."

"Don't get excited... You are still too young and impetuous." Qin Yunshuang advised, "If you force her to answer now, it will be like stirring up trouble. This crisis has been resolved, but the next crisis will definitely appear again!"

"So, what your father and I are saying is that we should wait and see who is behind this woman!"

"She is so weak, yet she dares to do such a bold thing. There must be someone behind her!"

"Only by catching the mastermind behind the scenes can we know who is hiding in the dark in this mansion." Qin Yunshuang sighed.

Shen Sikai understood, "Okay, my son was reckless and impulsive."

"But this thing cannot be kept!"

Shen Sikai lit the letter with a fire stick and it burned up.

"If nothing unexpected happens, someone will definitely come to search tomorrow..." Shen Zongguang thought, he picked up the pen, wrote a string of poems, and pressed it on the original location of the secret letter.

"Okay, let's wait until tomorrow. We just need to wait and see." Shen Zongguang said.

…

The next morning, when the sky was just turning pale, Shen Tang was still sleeping soundly. But at this moment, a chaotic and noisy sound of horse hooves quickly sounded towards this side, getting closer and closer.

[It's so noisy. ]

【I still want to sleep.】

Qin Yunshuang covered Xiao Tangbao's ears and looked at Shen Zongguang.

The couple understood each other tacitly.

Here it comes!

Soon, a familiar voice sounded.

"Brother, someone reported that your mansion was colluding with the enemy and committing treason, so the emperor sent me to investigate the matter!" At this time, Shen Zongguang's younger brother Shen Bailin was holding the imperial edict, raising his chin, and looking around arrogantly.

Last time, he lost face in front of Shen Zongguang and was beaten with thirty sticks in front of everyone in the Shen family. Those people didn't even let him put on pants, so he was left naked, and was seen by those lowly servants. His butt was beaten to pieces and all his dignity was crushed.

He swore that he would definitely bring down those people in the first house!

We must be proud of ourselves and avenge our past shame!

And now, his chance has come!

He took the initiative to report to the emperor that Shen Zongguang was colluding with the enemy and secretly plotting rebellion. The emperor was surprised that he could sacrifice his own family for the sake of justice, so he sent him here specially.

Shen Zongguang stared at Shen Bailin with complicated eyes.

The person behind the scenes turned out to be him!

Before, Shen Bailin had been hanging out with his concubine. He could think that Shen Bailin was lustful and disrespectful to him as his brother, but considering that they had been brothers for all these years, he just wanted to teach Shen Bailin a lesson.

Now it seems that there is no disrespect in that. It is clearly an attempt to harm everyone in their mansion!

It seems that what Tangtang said was right. Shen Bailin has been eyeing his position for a long time, just waiting for him to die so that he can take his place!

And this time, he brought the Yu Lin Army with him in a grand manner. If he really copied down the evidence of guilt, the emperor would definitely think that Shen Bailin was killing his own relatives for the sake of justice. Then, everything in the Marquis' Mansion would become Shen Bailin's!

Good, he is really nice! He doesn't care about the brotherhood we have had for so many years!

I was wrong, treating such a heartless person as my own brother!

"What do you mean by treason? I have been a soldier for half my life, and I have devoted myself to the court and the country. How could I do such a thing? You are slandering me!" Shen Zongguang shouted angrily, "You are my younger brother, and you are slandering me like this. What are you thinking of doing this?!"

"Brother, now that things have come to this, your excuses are useless." Shen Bailin simply stopped pretending, and no longer acted submissively in front of Shen Zongguang. "Someone, search for me!"

"Search carefully! Don't miss any place!"
