Quick Wear: I am the shopkeeper at the Merit Pawn Shop

"I'm telling the truth. Although I have the same real name as Lord Shen and I married Lord Shen's former divorced wife, I'm not his brother from the same father and mother. Lord Zhao should know exactly who I am."

What Shen Mo said was not false. He and Shen Cheng were indeed not brothers from the same father and mother. Shen Cheng was the son of Li Yumei's affair.

As for the issue of identity, from the first day he hunted the wanted criminal and sent the head of the wanted criminal to Zhao Zhige, Zhao Zhige must have checked his identity.

He was very confident in Sun Youtai's methods. As an imperial merchant and the top businessman in Daliang, if he couldn't handle it, he would not be worthy of his status.

This is indeed the case. Zhao Zhige's eyes are full of disgust towards Shen Cheng.

Zhao Zhige is a typical loyal minister who rose to power through education. What such a person hates most are those who try to curry favor with the powerful.

In his eyes, Shen Cheng was a man who was trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful. He abandoned his wife after he got the daughter of the marquis, and now he was robbing her for the sake of Marquis Wei An.

It simply ruins the reputation of scholars.

"You're talking nonsense." Shen Cheng looked at Shen Mo in disbelief.

"Nonsense? I heard that Lord Shen's real name is Shen Mo, and his courtesy name is Shen Cheng, but how come I heard that your brother is also called Shen Cheng? Your brother went to Beijing with Lord Shen that year, but in the end only you returned. By the way, my wife said that you look different from her ex-husband, but look exactly like her ex-uncle!"

When Shen Mo said this, Shen Cheng was already sweating profusely. He never thought that Shen Mo was not afraid of exposing his identity at all. He even gave up his identity as the runner-up and made a perfect fake identity that even the Jingzhao prefect could not detect.

If the fact that he replaced his brother were to be exposed at this time, he would be the only one charged with the crime of deceiving the emperor, and he would also be the only one whose entire clan would be exterminated.

Wei Mingzhu came over and slapped Shen Cheng in the face.

Then he bowed to the Jingzhao Mansion and said, "Sir Zhao, I'm sorry. My husband just mistakenly thought that the prince's fall into the water was related to Mr. Shen. The prince admires heroes the most. He heard that Mr. Shen had caught many robbers, so he asked out of curiosity. My husband misunderstood. My Wei family has received the emperor's grace and will never do anything to occupy other people's property."

"It's no use saying sorry to me. The person Shen Cheng just blackmailed was this Mr. Shen." Zhao Zhige pointed at Shen Mo.

"Mr. Shen, I apologize on behalf of my husband." Wei Mingzhu bowed to Shen Mo.

Shen Mo accepted Wei Mingzhu's gift without moving.

Of course he had to accept this gift. Why not? In his previous life, his daughter was bullied by this couple in the mansion and was finally sent to the Chu Palace to be buried with the King of Chu. This gift was not even considered interest.

"I hope Madam Shen will keep her word. Don't come and cause trouble for me now that Lord Zhao is talking to you nicely. Let me put it this way. If anything happens to my family or me in the future, the biggest suspect will be the Marquis' Mansion." Shen Mo said with a wry smile.

Shen Mo's words startled Zhao Zhige. He didn't expect Shen Mo to be so tough. As far as he knew, there was no one behind Shen Mo. Could it be that his investigation was wrong?

Thinking about Shen Mo's skills, how he could easily kill those wanted criminals, and how he was so close to the Sun family, I vaguely thought of a possibility.

If Shen Mo knew that his high-profile speech caused Zhao Zhige to misunderstand him, he would just laugh it off.

The two people behind had no interest in the party anymore and hurried home.

As soon as they got home, the housekeeper of the Marquis's Mansion arrived and asked them to go to the Mansion.

doing what?

After Wei Mingzhu was called by her stepmother, she waited outside her stepmother's room for an hour. Yes, she stood in the afternoon sun for an hour before a nanny came out and invited her in.

After entering, the first thing the wife of the Marquis's family asked about was the incident of the Marquis's son falling into the water. Then she started to scold her, and the reason was all because of what Shen Cheng had done.

The wife of Marquis Wei An did not attend the banquet that day because she was not feeling well, so she asked her sister-in-law from the second wife to go instead.

After returning, the sister-in-law was not in a good mood. She exaggerated the conflict between Wei Mingzhu and his wife and others, which made Mrs. Wei so angry that she smashed her most beloved teacup.

Shen Cheng was called to the study. Although he was not scolded, the warning was more obvious.

"Shen Cheng, who is this person with the same name as you?"

Wei Anhou's fox eyes were shining with brilliance.

The reason why he let his concubine's daughter marry Shen Cheng was because the Marquis's Mansion was going downhill.

When it comes into the hands of his son, the marquisate will become the earl's mansion. He hopes to support a court official during his lifetime so that it will not decline in the future.

He had also thought about letting his children take the imperial examination, but the descendants in his family were obviously not cut out for it. Moreover, letting his descendants take the imperial examination in recent years would have caused them to neglect their martial arts training. Now, he was stuck in a dilemma and could only seek help.

However, after observing for a while, it turned out that Shen Chengzhen was not the right type. Not only that, he was also vicious and stupid.

Because he had already heard from his son about what happened.

My son's diving was an unexpected action. Even he himself couldn't explain it, he just felt hot all over and wanted to cool down, so he jumped into the water.

What about Shen Cheng? He said those stupid words, and the Jingzhao prefect heard them. Although Zhao Zhige did not pursue anything, it was said that the Marquis's Mansion let Shen Cheng make money. Would the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion still be there?

"The Marquis is really my brother!" Shen Cheng gritted his teeth. He knew that he had to acknowledge the Marquis at this time. He also knew the Marquis's character very well. Otherwise, he wouldn't have helped him clean up the mess and married Wei Mingzhu to him.

That’s right, Marquis Wei An had known about his affair with Shen Mo for a long time and helped him clean up the mess, which meant that he was tied to the Marquis’s Mansion.

"I am so disappointed with what you have done. You didn't even check such an important matter."

"My Lord, this is my negligence."

"You are mine. If someone hits you in the face, it is a hit on my face. Don't bother with this person for now. By the way, you said that Wei Qi jumped into the river because he used witchcraft? Did he know these things before?"

"He certainly wouldn't have before."

"Then we really need to be careful with this person. By the way, I have already ordered someone to make the glass mirror you mentioned. Take a look and see if it is this kind?"

Marquis Wei An then ordered people to bring something wrapped tightly in cloth.

After the cloth was pulled aside, Shen Cheng's eyes lit up.

Excitedly, “Yes, that’s it.”

"You are still somewhat useful. Once this thing is on the market, it will surely be popular throughout Daliang."

"Then I would like to congratulate the Marquis on making a fortune." Shen Cheng felt relieved and smiled happily.

So what if Shen Mo is the runner-up and can study, and has learned sorcery? He has the system master in his hands.

When his identity was exposed by Wei Anhou, he was anxious, but fortunately the system gave him a method to make glass products, although he could not understand the paper, and did not know where some of the things mentioned on the paper were.

But it’s enough to scare Marquis Wei An.

The system said that as long as he gave the formula paper to Wei Anhou, Wei Anhou would take care of the rest. Sure enough, when Wei Anhou got the paper, he was very happy. Not only did he spare him, but he also helped him finish the task.
