I am the stepmother of my son, and the little villain has changed into a little cotton-padded jacket

"What did you say! My aunt was deposed? She has been banished to the cold palace?!" Tang Fusheng stood up in shock, staring at the young eunuch who came to report the news.

The young eunuch obviously no longer had the respect he once had for Tang Fusheng. Originally, he might have been respectful to Tang Fusheng because of Concubine Shu's status in the palace.

But now the young eunuch already knows that Concubine Shu has completely fallen, and it is hard to say when the Tang family will completely collapse.

The young eunuch said in a bad tone: "Yes, she poisoned Concubine Dun's medicine and was found out by His Majesty. His Majesty was furious and sent her to the cold palace. He also said that she should reflect on her mistakes in the cold palace for the rest of her life."

Hearing what the young eunuch said, Tang Fusheng was shocked and angry: "What?! How could this be? Doesn't His Majesty love my aunt very much? Why would he depose my aunt just because of the equally sick Concubine Dun? And there is also the eldest prince. Even if His Majesty is cruel enough to depose my aunt, he can't ignore the eldest prince, right?"

The young eunuch was a little annoyed by Tang Fusheng's series of questions. He gave Tang Fusheng a displeased look.

"Oh, Lord Tang doesn't know yet, right? Mr. Zhao has returned to the capital, and is visiting Concubine Dun in the palace. He happened to run into Concubine Dun taking medicine. It happened that the general's wife knew medicine, so she found out that someone had put something else in Concubine Dun's medicine. Mr. Zhao was naturally angry, and he also alarmed the emperor. Your Excellency, tell me, given this situation, Concubine Shu... Oh no, what way can the deposed concubine survive under such ironclad evidence?"

Hearing this, Tang Fusheng's face turned pale.

He didn't expect that Zhao Sixian would return to Beijing and happen to encounter this incident.

"How could this happen...Why would he return to Beijing!"

The young eunuch paid no attention to Tang Fusheng's emotional breakdown. He bowed perfunctorily and left the Tang Mansion.

After the young eunuch left, Tang Fusheng angrily drove all the maids out of the room.

However, because of his excitement, he accidentally bumped his arm, which had not yet recovered, and the pain made his face even paler.

Kong Qing, who was outside, heard the noise and rushed in. He was shocked to see Tang Fusheng squatting on the ground in so much pain that he couldn't straighten his back.

"Master!"

Tang Fusheng recovered and said angrily, gritting his teeth: "Prepare the car, I want to go to the palace now!"

Kong Qing immediately stood up to prepare the carriage. Tang Fusheng endured the pain in his arm and got on the carriage and entered the palace.

The emperor did not chat much with Zhao Sixian and the others. After saying a few polite words, he left Changchun Palace.

Zhao Sixian wanted to stay in Changchun Palace and spend more time with his daughter.

After saying goodbye to Zhao Sixian and others, Wen Shutang took the children back to the general's mansion. She didn't like the strange atmosphere in the palace and still felt that her own home was the best.

After returning home, Wen Shutang settled the children and returned to his room. He sat in front of the window, looking at the dim sunset in a daze.

When I am alone, I can't help but think of Xiao Yizhuo.

Xiao Yizhuo's usual appearance appeared in his mind, and Wen Shutang felt somewhat the same.

She knew clearly that this emotion was called missing.

I don’t know how Xiao Yizhuo is doing now, and whether he has reached the border.

Thinking of this, Wen Shutang suddenly remembered the token that Xiao Yizhuo gave her.

He took out the token from his arms and examined it carefully, then whispered, "Muzhu."

The next moment, Mu Zhu appeared in the room and knelt respectfully behind Wen Shutang.

"Young Master's wife."

Wen Shutang turned to look at Mu Zhu and took out the black iron token.

"Where are the Twelve Shadow Guards?"

Mu Zhu was stunned when he looked up and saw the token. After he reacted, he quickly lowered his head.

Before he could say anything, several other dark shadows appeared in the room one after another.

Wen Shutang narrowed his eyes and looked at the twelve shadow guards wearing the same black tights who suddenly appeared in front of him.

Wen Shutang knew several of these shadow guards, such as Mu Xia, who had been Xiao Wan's teacher for a period of time, Mu Yin, whom he met last time, and Mu Bai, who appeared when treating smallpox.

Apart from these few people, it was the first time that Wen Shutang saw the rest of the faces.

"This subordinate greets the young master's wife!"

Several people said in unison that this was the first time they had seen Wen Shutang. Although they had heard Mu Zhu talk about this young master's wife before, they were able to meet her only today.

Everyone was very surprised at the black iron token that appeared in Wen Shutang's hand. After all, this thing was the young master's personal belongings. Since the young master gave the token to her, it proved that the woman in front of them was the wife that their young master had already recognized.

Although they didn't know what kind of character this lady had, they now had to bow down to her.

They don't all act according to the token, but mainly follow the orders of the young master.

Wen Shutang put the token away: "Muzhu, please introduce yourself."

"Yes."

Mu Zhu raised his head and began to introduce them one by one.

"The twelve guards of the Shadow Pavilion are ranked in order of their fighting power: Mu Yan, Mu Chi, Mu Ci, and the fourth one is my subordinate."

When he said this, there was a hint of pride in Mu Zhu's tone.

Wen Shutang raised his eyebrows and signaled him to continue without saying anything.

"The fifth one is Mu Yin, the young master's wife you met before. The next ones are Sister Mu Xia, Mu Guan, Mu Lin, Mu Chun, Mu Qing, Mu Zhan and Mu Bai, who is in charge of medical skills."

After hearing so many names, Wen Shutang's first feeling was a headache.

"Who's first?"

The man in black raised his head slightly and looked at Wen Shutang with sharp eyes. The deep scar on his brow bone could be noticed at a glance.

"My name is Mu Yan." Mu Yan's voice was hoarse and low, like that of an old man with a vicissitudes of life.

When he saw his appearance, Wen Shutang felt that this man exuded a strong sense of hostility, and it seemed that he could smell the blood on him if he stood closer.

It seems that this shadow guard who ranks first in martial arts strength is indeed different.

Without waiting for Wen Shutang to speak, the young-looking man who was kneeling on one knee beside him raised his head excitedly.

"Madam Young Master, I am the second! My name is Mu Chi, just like my name. I am the best among them in Qinggong. I can travel a thousand miles in a day!"

Hearing the voice, Wen Shutang subconsciously turned his head to look over, only to find that the man did not seem to have any murderous intent, but instead had an inexplicable innocence.

Wen Shutang nodded slightly and his eyes fell on the woman next to Mu Chi.

Their order is the order of ranking. The women who can rank in the top three among the twelve shadow guards must be very powerful.

"Your name is Muci?"

Mu Ci nodded slightly, raised his head and clasped his fists in greeting: "Subordinate Mu Ci greets Madam."

When she looked up, Wen Shutang discovered that Mu Ci had only one eye, and the other eye was blocked by black leather material.

The only remaining eye still had a light red pupil.
