"A scheme within a scheme? What does that mean? Does it mean Shen Shi'en is about to make a move against me?"
Shen Shichang's hand trembled slightly as he wiped his bottom.
“That’s right!” Li Rui said, “Shen Shi’en has decided to make his move against you after the banquet, and the location will be by the lake in the back garden!”
"What?" Shen Shichang's voice changed drastically, and he said angrily and tremblingly, "He, he has such audacity! Today is his banquet. If I die in his mansion, what will people think? Doesn't he care about his reputation?"
Li Rui said in a deep voice, "Just as you said, sir, he doesn't even care about his reputation if he wants to kill you. This shows how strong his determination is. If you don't take action today, I'm afraid you'll be in grave danger!"
"Then what should we do?"
"Maybe I should leave now!" Shen Shichang said, his voice trembling.
"No, we can't leave!"
Li Rui sneered, "Don't be impatient, sir. I've been in the Marquis's mansion for many years and have bribed many people, including Shen Shi'en's confidants! We can take this opportunity to kill Shen Shi'en!"
Shen Shichang's expression changed. "This is the scheme within a scheme you were talking about?"
“Exactly, sir! If this plan succeeds, you will be the future Marquis of Xidu! If not now, when?” Li Rui’s voice was excited, and his eyes gleamed with fervor.
He had been waiting for this day for so long! He could have left the Shen family much earlier, but he stayed in the Marquis's mansion precisely to turn his life around.
call!
He calmed down and lowered his voice, saying, "I've made solemn promises to the people I've bribed, sir. I hope you won't let us down!"
Shen Shichang was overjoyed and said, "Don't worry, if you really help me reach that position, wealth and glory will naturally follow! I can give you the Shen family's Kowloon Mansion so you can divide it up, how about it?"
Kowloon Residence?
Li Rui's eyes widened in surprise. This property development was worth tens of billions! Wouldn't they become rich?
"Alright, sir, it's settled then. Don't worry, today, we brothers will definitely help you achieve your goal and kill that old scoundrel Shen Shi'en!"
"Haha! Okay, it's settled then! Wish us every success!"
Shen Shichang burst into excited laughter.
"By the way, did you bring any tissues?"
"I...I don't think I have enough either..."
...
Walls have ears!
Just as the two were carrying out their plan, a figure urinating in the corner heard everything clearly.
Feng Jiu shivered, pulled up her pants, and a slight, cold smile appeared on her lips.
Holy crap!
Previously, he and the young marshal had been wondering who sent assassins to kill the Shen family, and about the incident with Zhu Gang, if the young marshal hadn't been there, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
The case is finally solved; it turns out it was those two bastards.
brush!
A silver dagger landed in her hand, and Feng Jiu walked toward the squatting spot with murderous intent in her eyes.
However, considering that if these two people died inexplicably in the Marquis's mansion, it would definitely affect Shen Shi'en's reputation, he could not act impulsively at this moment.
We need to inform the young marshal first!
A moment later, Feng Jiu returned to the banquet and whispered a few words in Lin Yu's ear.
Lin Yu was slightly taken aback, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it.
"Lin Yu, what's wrong?" Shen Manshu asked in a low voice, like a dutiful wife.
Lin Yu smiled but didn't say anything. He simply took a sip of his wine and began to make plans in his mind.
The banquet ended shortly afterward.
The guests left one after another.
Shen Shi'en kept only members of the Shen family behind. Among them was Shen Shichang.
Shen Manshu escorted Lin Yu to the door.
Lin Yu smiled and said, "Aren't you going to ask me to stay a little longer?"
Shen Manshu blushed and lowered her eyes, saying, "Let's do it another day. My dad just said today that he wants to give it to us... You can come anytime in the future!"
Lin Yu smiled and nodded, then left with Feng Jiu without saying anything.
As Shen Manshu watched the two leave, she slowly turned around, her eyes turning cold.
After all the guests had left, Shen Shi'en called the Shen family to the back garden to play golf by the lake.
Before long, all the Shen family members gathered on the grassy bank.
"Your Excellency is in high spirits, even thinking of playing golf!"
"It's been a long time since we played!"
"Hehe, the weather is really nice today, perfect for playing ball!"
"Hey, why isn't the Marquis here?"
The crowd was buzzing with discussion.
Glug glug!
A wheelchair rolled in from a distance, and Fugui pushed Shen Manshu to the front of the crowd.
"Young Miss? Where is the Marquis?"
Everyone was puzzled.
Shen Manshu's deep gaze pierced through the crowd and landed on Shen Shichang in the middle of the crowd.
He said calmly, "My dad won't be coming, because I can't bear to see his brothers fight each other!"
"Brothers killing each other? What does that mean?"
Everyone was puzzled.
Shen Manshu sneered, "Shen Shichang, why don't you come out and face your death?!"
brush!
As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of imposing figures suddenly appeared on the riverbank, and the entire stadium was filled with murderous intent!
The Shen family members were terrified and turned pale, completely at a loss for what to do.
"Young Miss, what's wrong...?"
Da da da!
Amidst the bewildered gazes of the crowd, Shen Shichang slowly stepped forward, frowning as he said, "Miss, what do you mean by this? I remember when the Marquis was seriously ill, I helped the Marquis's mansion quite a bit. I even had my hand chopped off by Li Mu's men in order to protect the Kowloon Mansion. Are you now going to discard me after I've served my purpose?"
Everyone held their breath instantly.
They also knew that Shen Shichang had been leveraging the influence of the Marquis's mansion to expand his business over the years, and had become the company's second-largest shareholder.
