Shen Yiyi's face was pale as she watched the bloodstains on the ground being cleaned up and Xue Mei's body being dragged away. It was quickly restored to cleanliness, as if nothing had happened and a living person just disappeared.
Even Xuan Ming was shocked. He witnessed Xue Mei twisting her own neck with her own hands and blood flowing like a river. The impact was more terrifying than a nightmare.
A mother did this for her daughter with good intentions, but she used the wrong method.
The empress was holding back her anger. Xue Mei held the highest position among the pharmacists in MSI Country. She had dedicated herself to the country for more than 20 years. Even if she had no merits, she had worked hard. If she died to apologize, and her treatment of Shen Qiangwei was heard by the outside world, it would damage the empress's reputation for benevolence.
Since ancient times, people have believed that debts are discharged after death.
The empress suppressed her anger and weighed the pros and cons. Taking into account the forces behind Shen Qiangwei's six beast husbands, the empress came up with a plan in a very short time.
"Order to abolish the title of Marquis Shen Qiangwei, demote her to a commoner, and banish her from the palace. From now on, you are not allowed to set foot in the palace without my permission. Confiscate her property as punishment."
The empress waved her hand, and Marquis Lu took his men to drag her away.
Shen Qiangwei, who was always good at sophistry, had a blank mind. Her heart seemed to be dug out, and she felt bloody and painful, worse than death.
In her previous life, her parents were divorced and struggled to make a living. She traveled to another world and was able to call the wind and rain. Xuemei was there to protect her all the way, teach her how to make potions, and do whatever it takes for her.
Shen Qiangwei had always treated Xue Mei as a tool until this moment, when she witnessed with her own eyes that she was willing to break her own neck in order to save her own life.
This strong emotion rushed straight to the top of Shen Qiangwei's head. It was like killing someone and destroying their heart. Her inner world was shattered, her face twisted and mad, and a fishy sweetness surged in her throat. She swallowed it forcefully, pinching her palms frantically to regain a trace of clarity by relying on the pain.
Chen Yin, you bastard, shall not die a good death!
Shen Qiangwei was defeated and lost her greatest support, her biological mother who was both her teacher and friend. The hatred for her mother's murder was irreconcilable.
She didn't collapse and scream like the Joker. She only had one life left and couldn't go crazy anymore.
As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood!
Shen Qiangwei was dragged out by the palace guards like a dead dog, thrown out of the palace gate, and spat fiercely.
His property was confiscated, his cash was frozen, and he was left penniless.
“…”
Chen Yin and Shen Yiyi watched Shen Qiangwei being dragged away, and their first thought was to go up and finish her off, otherwise there would be endless trouble.
But the situation does not allow it.
Chen Yin originally thought that she would be killed in this round, but she underestimated Xue Mei's ruthlessness.
Facing Shen Qiangwei, who was as indestructible as a cockroach, Shen Yin couldn't help but feel his eyes go dark.
“Okay, this matter ends here. If Shen Qiangwei dares to make trouble again, I will not forgive her.”
The empress looked grim and waved her hand tiredly. She had a nameless anger in her heart that she had no place to vent. She had been plotted against for twenty years, and this was by the minister who had been with her the longest. The empress had not tasted the feeling of being backstabbed for a long time.
Shen Yin bowed, gave a wink to Shen Yiyi and Zhou Yi, and exited the palace, followed by Xuan Ming who looked dazed.
All this was beyond his understanding. His heart was torn and struggling, and he was heartbroken. Looking at Chen Yin in front of him, he felt an insurmountable grief in his heart.
He opened his mouth to face Chen Yin, but that frosty face made him swallow back the rest of his words. He smiled bitterly, "I've let you down. You have every right to resent me. I'm stupid."
This was the first time Xuan Ming experienced such a blow. His world collapsed, and every bit of affection he had with Shen Qiangwei in the past became a joke.
Chen Yiyi suddenly stepped forward and sneered, "Master Xuan Ming, it's an indisputable fact that you've wronged Fourth Sister. Who are you showing this face to? You stepped on her when she was down, and now you're pretending to be so righteous that it's disgusting. You might as well be as evil as you were from the beginning instead of making trouble for others here. Do you think that if you say this, Fourth Sister will feel sorry for you and blame herself? You're dreaming! People like you don't deserve to be a father!"
Shen Yiyi, who watched the whole process from beginning to end, felt extremely sarcastic, but at the same time, she couldn't help but sympathize with Shen Yin.
She has nothing, but her father never leaves her. No matter how useless she is and how incompetent she is, and how she is just a D-level waste with mental power, her father has never despised her. He only blames himself for being useless and bringing trouble to his daughter.
It's too obvious whether you love me or not.
Shen Yiyi showed a mocking expression, which hit Xuan Ming's weak spot directly.
These words were not entirely said for Chen Yin. Xuan Ming had made things difficult for them in the past, and now it was his turn to suffer.
"How outrageous!"
Shen Qilin was furious, “Chen Yiyi, don’t think you can do whatever you want just because Shen Yin is standing behind you!”
Chen Yin's expression changed and he was about to speak.
"Forget it, let's go."
Xuan Ming, who had always been competitive, shook his head, grabbed his son, and didn't want to entangle him. He glanced at Chen Yin for the last time and disappeared into the palace.
The thin back was stretched out by the sunlight and disappeared quickly. The dispirited look was in sharp contrast to his previous arrogance.
Chen Yin shook his head, feeling unlucky.
I am not afraid of people being stupid, but I am afraid of people being stupid and bad, and touching people's hearts.
After he left, Shen Yiyi concealed her edge, turned to Shen Yin, and looked nervous, “…Fourth sister, I was too sentimental today. Everything is under the control of Fourth sister.”
How could she not understand it now? Zhou Yi and Shen Yin had colluded with each other. Even if she was not there today, Shen Yin would be able to escape unscathed.
If you are not careful, you will become a clown.
Chen Yin chuckled softly, "Sincerity is precious, how can it be called self-indulgent? Third sister, you are so generous and helpful, and fourth sister is deeply grateful."
Shen Yiyi was stunned. It was the first time she heard such words. She stared at Shen Yin blankly, her heart was filled with waves of shock, and a smile could not help but appear on her calm face.
Chen Yin threw out a potion.
"This is a C-level potion, which can directly help you upgrade to B. We are sisters, so there is no need for polite words. I don't have anything else, but the potion is enough to fill you up. Wait a week, and I will give you a B-level potion."
After saying that, without looking back at Shen Yiyi's stunned expression, he left with Zhou Yi.
She was left holding the C-level potion in a daze.
C-level medicine has been promoted, but there is no market for it. It is sold out in one second every time it is put on sale. Even if Shen Yiyi and her daughter save money by living frugally, there is no way to buy it.
God knows how much Shen Yiyi wants to become stronger, and this potion of Shen Yin is a chance for her to change her destiny.
Shen Yiyi lowered her head and chuckled, “This fourth sister is very clear about gratitude and resentment.”
…
…
Zhou Yi followed Chen Yin back to the villa. Xiao Zhi was the only one left in the room eating durian mille-feuille. When he saw the two people coming towards him, he didn't even raise his head. Zhou Yi's face froze slightly and he turned to Chen Yin.
"Sit wherever you like."
Chen Yin waved her hand and asked the robot to bring tea and dessert.
"Thank you for your hard work during this period. The initial cooperation went smoothly."
Xiao Zhi sat there like an evil god, making Zhou Yi sweat profusely.
The leader of the Jiaolong tribe has to be polite to him even if he is the leader of the Mermaid tribe.
