Spring in the East Palace

When she learned the truth, she realized how absurd she was and how she had been deceived by this face countless times.

Now, she can live her life again. Looking at Shen Zhenzhen's extremely hypocritical face here, Shen Muyin has only one thought in her mind.

How can she peel off her hypocritical skin layer by layer?

She would return to Shen Zhenzhen everything she had suffered a thousand fold, and she would never show mercy.

But in this situation, Shen Muyin still hid this emotion very well, because she knew that now was not the time.

If she alerted the enemy, everything that happened afterwards would probably be completely different.

Thinking of this, Shen Muyin became even quieter.

Qiao Suwan then spoke: "I will naturally not let any murderer go, nor will I let anyone be wronged."

"Yes." Shen Zhenzhen responded.

Shen Zhenzhen stood aside obediently this time. Shen Changsheng looked at Lan Fang in shock: "Lan Fang, you..."

Shen Yan didn't say anything and was very quiet, but his eyes were terrifyingly gloomy.

Everyone was used to Shen Yan's gloomy look, so no one thought much about it.

But Shen Muyin knew that Shen Yan's eyes were on Shen Muyin, probably because he was unwilling to let Shen Muyin escape.

Ah……

Shen Muyin smiled silently and didn't say anything, but when she looked at Shen Yan, there was a hint of indifference and sarcasm in her eyes.

He didn't take Shen Yan seriously at all.

"Speak." Qiao Suwan's voice was even more severe, and it fell on Lan Fang.

Lan Fang hesitated, as if unable to utter a word for a long time.

After all, Lan Fang had never expected today's scene. She thought Shen Muyin would definitely plead guilty, but she never expected that Shen Muyin was safe and sound, but she was arrested instead.

"If someone instigated you, you can just say it. This is the mastermind, and I will naturally not let him go." Qiao Suwan spoke every word clearly.

Shen Muyin saw the struggle in Lan Fang's eyes, and for a moment, Lan Fang wanted to blurt out something.

But in the end, the fear in Lan Fang's eyes made her give up.

Shen Muyin knew that the Shen family members would probably not be confessed, so she remained quiet.

"Speak!" Qiao Suwan's tone became even harsher.

"I just don't like Shen Muyin, so I did this. I didn't think much about other things, and I didn't expect that I would strangle someone to death like this..."

Lan Fang was crying as she spoke, and her words were half true and half false.

Maybe I was in a panic, so the words I said were not fluent.

"Madam, the deceased was poisoned." Chen the coroner whispered, "It's a slow-acting poison that is imperceptible on a normal day, colorless and odorless, but over time, it can cause a person to have a continuous fever, and eventually the high fever will not subside, leading to death."

After Chen finished speaking, he looked at Qiao Suwan seriously.

"This is also why there were black marks on Miss Shen's fingers before, because the toxin seeped through the skin. Miss Shen was probably trying to test Su'er's condition at that time, so she was contaminated." The coroner has also made a judgment.

He completely restored Shen Muyin's situation at that time, and it was true.

"So, Miss Shen's fingertips were stained, right at the location of the artery, to determine whether the deceased was still breathing." Coroner Chen restored the previous situation exactly.

Qiao Suwan nodded.

But no one with a discerning eye would believe that Lan Fang would do this to her own son.

Everyone saw clearly that Lan Fang was hesitant to speak just now.

There is someone behind this, and this person wants Shen Muyin's life. Lan Fang's death is not a pity, as this person will plan to murder Shen Muyin again.

Qiao Suwan lowered her brows, but Shen Muyin knew what she meant. Their eyes met in the air, and Qiao Suwan understood what Shen Muyin meant.

Shen Muyin probably knows the murderer behind the scenes.

So, Qiao Suwan nodded, and just as she was about to speak, the guards outside ran in: "Madam, a man named Zhao Yong is outside asking to see you."

Shen Muyin raised her eyebrows slightly and remained calm, but she knew who was coming.

Thinking of this, Shen Muyin remained extremely calm and stood there without changing his expression.

"Zhao Yong?" Qiao Suwan nodded, "Let him in."

The guard turned around, and soon a man in cloth walked in. He looked burly and strong. When Lan Fang saw him, her expression changed completely.

Obviously they know each other.

The people in the Shen residence looked at each other, not knowing where Zhao Yong came from, but the uneasy premonition became more and more obvious.

But throughout the whole process, no one in the Shen residence said a word and just stood there passively.

"You witch!" Zhao Yong shouted angrily, "How could you be so cruel to exchange your own son's life for your wealth and glory! If you didn't like Su'er, why didn't you want to give it back to me at that time! I think you have been planning this for a long time!"

Zhao Yong was obviously very familiar with Lan Fang, and everyone could see Lan Fang's expression clearly.

"Do you know the reason behind this?" Qiao Suwan looked at Zhao Yong.

Zhao Yong then noticed Qiao Suwan and knelt down immediately: "I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Princess. May Your Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

Then Zhao Yong just knelt there and told the whole story from beginning to end.

"Cao Min and Lan Xiang are childhood sweethearts. They have promised to spend their lives together a long time ago, so naturally they ate the forbidden fruit." Zhao Yong told the story.

In Yan State, people's customs were not open and were relatively conservative.

Therefore, the relationship between men and women before the wedding cannot be broken, and the bleeding on the wedding night is extremely important.

This was true in the palace and among the people.

A girl's chastity is extremely important, so in this situation, if they can taste the forbidden fruit, it basically means they have pledged their lives to each other.

"But the Lan family coveted the Shen family's money. The Shen family was the second wife. I begged the Lan family in vain. Lan Fang was also extremely determined to marry into the Shen family. I had no choice but to leave my hometown." Zhao Yong said angrily.

"..."

"Until I came back many years later and met Lan Fang, Lan Fang was not living a happy life in the Shen family. Shen Cong liked to flirt with other women and even brought women back to the mansion. He also took in many concubines. Lan Fang's life was extremely difficult. So Lan Fang took the initiative to find me and revealed the news, saying that Su'er was my son. I asked Lan Fang to hand Su'er over to me, but Lan Fang refused. I never thought that she had such intentions."

When Zhao Yong said this, he wished he could kill Lan Fang.

Only those present understood.

Lan Fang is unhappy after marrying into the Shen family, and Shen Cong also discovers that Su'er is not his son.

Su'er is similar to Lan Fang, but not at all like Shen Cong. Lan Fang was pregnant and gave birth to another son less than two years after marrying into the Shen family.

Therefore, the position of the first wife has always been there, and the concubines below are all unpromising.
