“Miss… was it really Second Madam who set you up?” Gu Yu asked with difficulty.
If it was just an accident, they would feel glad that Shen Miao escaped that night. However, if it was intentional, then the second branch deserved it.
“But why did Miss say that Second Madam will ask that person for help? Didn’t that person… just an ordinary person?” Jingzhe was a little puzzled. Ren Wanyun must hate that person who humiliated her daughter to the core. Why would she ask him for help?”
“Because that person is Prince Yu.”
Jingzhe and Gu Yu gasped. They seemed to have understood everything that they didn’t understand before. If that person was Prince Yu, everything would make sense. Previously, they saw that Prince Yu seemed to be interested in Shen Miao, but what kind of person was Prince Yu? Ordinary girls would avoid him when they saw him. If Prince Yu made a deal with Ren Wanyun in private, Ren Wanyun was very likely to help Prince Yu humiliate Shen Miao.
If Ren Wanyun told Prince Yu about this, with his temperamental personality, he would definitely not let Shen Miao off.
“Miss, should I… write a letter to Master now?” Gu Yu and Jingzhe both panicked.
Prince Yu was too powerful for Shen Miao to deal alone. Not only did he have power, but he also had the royal family as a shield.
“It’s fine.” Shen Miao’s eyes lit up. “Shen Qing is just a catalyst. What I want to deal with is Prince Yu.”
She turned to look at the smoke rising from the Buddhist shrine.
Wanyu, your life was really tough. You died at a young age. You had the title of a princess, but you were worse than grass. I couldn’t do anything for you. At least for now, at least in this life, I would help you get back at those who caused your death.
In a building outside the capital, the white-robed young master played with the porcelain cup in his hand and asked curiously, “In that case, that girl from the Shen family actually has a feud with Prince Yu? She used her cousin to slowly pull Prince Yu into the trap. Her methods are indeed brilliant, but as a girl, she’s too ruthless.”
“Prince Yu?” The purple-robed youth opposite him smiled, his eyes as sharp as blades. He said lazily, “I don’t think she just wants to deal with Prince Yu.”
“Not Prince Yu? Then who is it?” The young man in white paused and looked at the person opposite him. “Do you think…”
“Prince Yu is just her first target. She is eventually aiming at the royal family of Ming Qi,” The young man replied indifferently.
… .
The autumn rain was cold, but after a night of autumn train, the summer heat was gone. Even the sun in the sky looked bleak.
In the Shen family’s mansion, the east courtyard was still busy. At the end of the year, it was Old Madam Shen’s birthday. Old Madam Shen liked to be extravagant and had to start preparing for her birthday a few months in advance.
Chen Ruoqiu was responsible for writing invitation letters. Although she was already in her middle age, Chen Ruoqiu still maintained her youthful figure. Perhaps it was because of her scholarly aura that she looked more beautiful than the plump Ren Wanyun. It was precisely because she was beautiful and had a gentle personality that she could charm the third master of the Shen family, Shen Wan, into a daze. After being married for many years, even though Chen Ruoqiu had no sons and only had Shen Yue as her daughter, Shen Wan did not take in any concubines other than the two concubines that Old Madam Shen thrust upon him.
