The legitimate daughter is reborn and the fake Bai Lian is completely panicked
Chapter 4: Failed to Catch an Adulterer
"Shen Mi and the young master of Yongchang Marquis's Mansion took advantage of my grandmother's birthday today and had a secret meeting here while all the maids and servants went to the front yard."
As soon as Wen Yue finished speaking, she was met with the cold gaze of Old Madam Wen, and she immediately became timid.
"Grandma, what I said is the truth. This is your birthday party, and they, they actually... had sex here."
At this moment, Madam Wen's face was ashen.
This courtyard is an attic specially built by his grandson Wen Xingchu.
It’s just that the attic hasn’t been cleaned for a long time, and today is her birthday, so she didn’t expect a stranger to break in.
But she didn't expect that the young master of the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion would also come to Nanyuan, which was really strange.
Old Madam Wen turned around with a smile, looked at Lin beside her, and patted her hand slightly apologetically.
"Madam Shen, this Yue'er is outspoken, I hope you can forgive me."
"I believe that the girls from the Shen Mansion are all well-educated and well-mannered like the Third Miss, and will not do anything out of line."
The third young lady she was talking about was Shen Mi's half-sister, Shen Shu.
Lin smiled, her eyes fixed on the door.
Her voice was gentle and soft, just like that of a sensible mistress of a marquis's mansion.
"From Madam Wen's place."
"This Mi'er just returned to Yanjing City, and has a low alcohol tolerance. Now that she has come to Madam's place, she must have lost her way."
"Mi'er grew up in the countryside, and although she doesn't know a thing or two about etiquette, she wouldn't do such a thing. I'm sorry to have made the old lady laugh today."
"I'm afraid the maid must have seen it wrong."
While Lin was defending Shen Mi, she was actually looking forward to the scene where Shen Mi was caught cheating.
She raised her eyes and looked at the beautiful girl in light green clothes in the crowd.
The little girl has an oval face, picturesque eyebrows and eyes, and is dignified and polite.
That person was none other than Shen Shu.
Shen Shu took lotus steps and slowly walked to Lin's side.
"Mother, my sister should be asleep. I'll go and call her home."
Lin smiled and said, "Okay, Shu'er, you go in, we'll wait here."
Lin originally wanted to let a maid go, but she did not inform the other maids in advance.
Even if the maids went in and saw something, they dared not say it out loud. They would only go back to the Shen Mansion and tell it secretly to Old Madam Shen.
This was not the result she wanted.
However, if Shen Shu went in, even if she saw two figures in the room, she would deliberately make a big deal out of it to attract more attention.
Shen Shu gently lifted the hem of her skirt, with a faint smile on her lips, and walked towards the door step by step.
The situation in the room was unknown and no one dared to look inside.
After all, one is the son of the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion, and the other is the daughter of the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion.
Even if something really happened, the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion would have to give the two people in the room a way out.
Shen Shu had a smug smile on her lips and slowly pushed the door open a corner. Then a strong smell of blood hit her nose.
However, the smell of blood was too unfamiliar to her, a young lady who was raised in the inner courtyard.
She thought it was the special smell left over from the intercourse between a man and a woman, and felt that her plan had succeeded.
The room was surprisingly dark, with only a little moonlight shining in.
She was holding the dim lantern, and the first thing she saw was the clothes that Zhang Wang took off when he came in.
The clothes were scattered all over the ground, giving off an ambiguous vibe.
Perhaps because she was too excited, she didn't bother to open the bed curtains.
She immediately exclaimed: "Second sister, Master Zhang, what are you doing?"
"This is in the Wen Mansion, how can you do such a shameful thing?"
As soon as Shen Shu finished speaking, Madam Wen outside the door suddenly frowned.
"Really..."
Wen Yue beside him said, "Grandma, I told you that Second Miss Shen was having an affair with a wild man in here, but you still didn't believe it."
Old Madam Wen did not go in out of consideration for the Shen family's reputation.
Lin's expression changed slightly, and she pretended to be angry and said, "Well, Mr. Zhang is so bold that he dares to do such a despicable thing to Mi'er."
Just as the people outside the room were about to go in, a sudden and harsh sound suddenly appeared in the room.
"His Royal Highness Prince Rui!"
"This subject did not mean to break in. Please, King Rui, spare my life!"
Everyone outside was shocked.
Madam Wen and Mrs. Lin's expressions suddenly changed.
Old Madam Wen took the lantern from the maid next to her and went into the room.
"What's going on? Why is His Royal Highness Prince Rui in the room?"
At this moment, the dim room was slightly lit up by the lantern dropped by Shen Shu on the ground, but the light in the room was still a little blurry.
The slender shadow of the man on the chair was cast on the wall, adding a bit of weirdness.
Shen Shu was kneeling on the ground, her hands stained with blood, her whole body shaking uncontrollably.
After she came in, she saw Zhang Wang's clothes on the ground and felt that her evil plan had succeeded, and she was extremely happy.
However, he did not notice that there was a man in black sitting in a hidden corner of the room.
When she held up a lantern and saw clearly Zhang Wang's body in the corner, she realized that what she smelled was blood, not the smell left by sexual intercourse between a man and a woman.
She fell to the ground in fright.
In a panic, she was about to get up from the ground, and when she looked up, she met Murong Che's cold eyes.
She seemed to understand what was happening in the room.
Shen Shu's voice trembled. She didn't care about the blood on her hands and quickly got up.
"Fourth Master, I...I thought my sister was inside, so I offended you. Please forgive me, Fourth Master."
"Your servant...Your servant will be out right away."
Shen Shu was so frightened that she was at a loss what to do. She crawled to her feet from the ground, not even caring about the lantern, and was about to run out of the room.
After taking a few steps, a chilling voice came from behind me.
"stop."
Her steps suddenly froze, and she turned back tremblingly, looking at Murong Che sitting on the chair.
The man was dressed in black and smelled bloody.
There was a strong smell of blood in her nostrils.
At this moment, Shen Mi, who was hiding in the closet, really hoped that Murong Che would kill Shen Shu.
However, she knew that Murong Che would never kill a woman himself, but he would torture people.
Sure enough, the cold and cruel voice sounded in the room again.
The man's voice was bone-chillingly cold. "Who told you to go out the door?"
Murong Che casually stretched out his finger and pointed to a window to the north.
"Where should you exit?"
Shen Shu bit her trembling lips and looked at where his finger was.
The window of that place was half open, and it was a dark and silent night outside.
This is a three-story attic. If you jump out of the attic window, you will either die or be crippled.
She stood there, trembling all over, unable to move.
Outside the door, Madam Wen, Wen Yue, Lin and others entered the room one after another.
The room was suddenly lit up, and everyone gasped as they looked at the body in the corner of the room and the blood on the ground.
Old Madam Wen looked at Murong Che in disbelief, and prepared to perform the ceremony with a group of maids and servants, with her body stiff.
"Your Highness is in the Nanyuan Pavilion, and the servants in the mansion have not informed me of this. I am afraid that I have lost the way to entertain guests."
Sitting on the chair, Murong Che had a blank expression on his face and a cold voice.
"Madam Wen, there is no need to be polite."
"I drank some wine, and Second Master Wen arranged for me to take a rest here."
He glanced casually at the body in the corner.
"I never thought that I would encounter an assassin and watch such a good show."
Old Madam Wen looked at the body in the corner. She recognized it as the second son of the Marquis of Yongchang.
Now, Prince Rui encountered an assassin in the Yongning Marquis' Mansion. I am afraid that if the Supreme Emperor investigates, the entire Yongning Marquis' Mansion will not have peace.
She immediately said respectfully, "Today is my birthday banquet, and the servants and guards in the mansion have all gone to the front yard. I never thought that a foreign man would break in and almost hurt Your Highness. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
Murong Che sneered, "The person is already dead, so I am too lazy to pursue the matter."
His eyes fell on Wen Yue in the crowd.
Wen Yue immediately shrank her neck in fear.
"Madam Wen is a smart person. Why not ask Fourth Miss Wen some other day?"
Murong Che's words have a deeper meaning.
Madam Wen was a little confused. She turned to look at Wen Yue and asked, "Yuer?"
Wen Yue was so frightened that her face turned pale and she didn't dare to say a word.
Old Madam Wen roughly guessed that this matter was related to Wen Yue.
Considering the presence of so many people, she did not blame him on the spot.
He only said respectfully: "Your Highness is right. I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly."
"Now that someone has died in this room, why don't you move it to the lobby?"
Murong Che raised his eyebrows slightly. "If the old lady is interested, please have the bodies taken away and clean up the place."
Madam Wen immediately ordered the guards beside her.
"Why don't you drag this corpse out? Don't let it dirty His Highness's eyes."
