Spring in the East Palace

Lu Nanhuai stood beside Qin Chuyan with an expressionless face. The imperial guards stood in a line, surrounding the Lixiang Tower.

Everyone in the room knelt down, no one dared to speak, not even to peek.

"Raise your head and look at me." Qin Chuyan spoke slowly, but the words between the lines did not allow anyone to resist.

The corners of everyone's eyes collided, but they still looked up, but everyone's eyes were full of fear.

Shen Muyin was extremely unwilling and subconsciously moved a little, trying to hide behind Wang Chaosheng.

Wang Chaosheng is fat enough and should be able to cover himself.

As a result, just as Shen Muyin moved, Qin Chuyan's voice suddenly came: "You, come here."

Shen Muyin was pretending to be dead, and the people around him looked at each other and dared not move, because they were not sure who Donggong was calling.

Especially the officials at the scene, each of them was trembling with fear, fearing that they would be the ones to be called out.

Lu Nanhuai followed Qin Chuyan's gaze and noticed Shen Muyin the first time he came in.

Lu Nanhuai was surprised. How could a woman like Shen Muyin appear in Lixianglou? Especially a woman who was marked as a property of the Eastern Palace. She really didn't take the Eastern Palace seriously at all.

interesting.

But Lu Nanhuai didn't expose it and just stood there with an expressionless face.

Making Dong Gong unhappy was one thing, but Lu Nanhuai had no intention of breaking up Dong Gong's marriage.

After all, there are not many women like Shen Muyin who are so desperate and take the initiative to provoke women in the Eastern Palace and can survive safely.

"I asked you to come over." Qin Chuyan read every word clearly.

Shen Muyin tried hard to pretend to be a turtle, and he wished he could dig another hole and bury himself in it.

But the next second, a fragrant pear hit Shen Muyin's head directly and accurately, with just the right force not to hurt her, but to make her feel terribly painful.

"Yes. I obey your command." Shen Muyin got up reluctantly.

Qin Chuyan's attitude made everyone at the scene look sideways and look at Shen Muyin twice more.

Wang Chaosheng fell in love with her at first sight, and so did Dong Gong, so this Shen Muyin must be so stunning.

As a result, everyone felt that she was just so-so, with heavy makeup, not much different from the prostitutes at the scene, and not even outstanding enough.

Shen Muyin didn't bother to pay attention to these people's speculations, and walked towards Qin Chuyan in small steps.

She thought to herself, Qin Chuyan couldn't possibly reveal his identity in front of these people. He couldn't be that crazy.

But Shen Muyin couldn't guarantee it. After all, there was nothing this madman couldn't do. Thinking of this, the tingling feeling on his scalp became obvious again.

"Where are you from?" Qin Chuyan asked indifferently.

"Pingding County, Beicheng." Shen Muyin appeared respectful.

Qin Chuyan looked at Shen Muyin sharply, then sneered, and pinched her chin with his big, bony hands, half-forcing Shen Muyin to get closer to him.

Shen Muyin staggered, and felt a strong force at her waist. She was already close to Qin Chuyan.

Shen Muyin's heart was beating fast. The more confused she was, the more nervous she became.

"She's wearing heavy makeup and looks extremely ugly." Qin Chuyan said harshly, "The clothes are cheap. I think this Lixianglou is about to go bankrupt. Anyone can be let out to entertain guests."

Shen Muyin: "..."

This is being harsh on myself in every word.

But Shen Muyin didn't have the courage to talk back to Qin Chuyan at this time, and she was not stupid enough to expose herself in front of the crowd.

If the East Palace scolds you, then you can only let the East Palace scold you.

But this man pinched himself, causing Shen Muyin's brows to furrow slightly. The wound that was touched by the killer was aching slightly, and he was afraid that blood would flow out again.

Qin Chuyan didn't know whether he noticed it or something else, he suddenly let go of Shen Muyin, but still looked down at him.

The man spoke in a very low voice, and only Shen Muyin could hear it clearly.

"I will settle the score with you later." Qin Chuyan warned Shen Muyin in a low voice.

Shen Muyin sighed silently. They hadn't seen each other for many days, so how had she offended the Eastern Palace?

It's impossible that she can provoke the Eastern Palace for no reason even in the Shen Mansion.

As soon as Qin Chuyan finished speaking, he sat back in the main seat and looked at Dong Jin: "Take the man away and deal with him."

"Yes." Dong Jin responded respectfully.

Then Dong Jin retracted his sword and walked towards Shen Muyin. The scene became silent.

Everyone looked at Shen Muyin with sympathy in their eyes.

After all, being dealt with by the Eastern Palace means a dead end.

Shen Muyin, on the other hand, remained calm until Dong Jin walked up to her and said, "Miss, please."

These were very polite words, and Shen Muyin nodded. Dong Jin led the way and quickly brought Shen Muyin out of the scene.

Aunt Gui came up immediately and said, "Miss Dong, I have prepared a room for you. Please take the young lady there."

Dong Jin nodded. Shen Muyin was a little surprised, but he remained calm.

Nanny Gui is the head nanny of Lixianglou. Lixianglou has a backer, and everyone in Kyoto knows it.

Otherwise, Lixianglou would not have been able to exist so brazenly in Kyoto and remain standing.

Shen Muyin now suddenly realized that the backer of Lixiang Tower was not anyone else, but the Eastern Palace.

"Miss Shen, please follow me." Dong Jin looked at Shen Muyin with a smile.

Compared with the ferocious Dong Jin who drew his sword without blinking before, he seemed much more harmless.

"You..." Shen Muyin bit her lip slightly.

Dong Jin then continued with a smile: "I noticed it since you entered Lixianglou. You were injured."

Dong Jin looked proud as he said, "That Wang Chaosheng must be tired of living, so he dared to touch you. If it weren't for His Highness arriving soon, I would have shot him through the heart with an arrow."

Shen Muyin: "..."

So Dong Jin really drew her sword just now because Wang Chaosheng attacked her?

"If His Highness knew that you got injured under my nose, I would be in trouble when I go back." Dong Jin snorted, "His Highness would definitely throw me to the back mountain to practice martial arts, and I would not be released until I could dodge His Highness's ten moves."

When he heard the word "back mountain", Shen Muyin's eyelids twitched.

Her first reaction was to feed the wolves, snakes, or vultures.

Obviously, the madman in the East Palace was only so cruel to himself, and the rest of the people were thrown to the back mountain to practice martial arts.

This isn't what it means to be partial.

As Dong Jin spoke, he quickly took off Shen Muyin's clothes.

The conspicuous scar on the back was clearly visible. Dong Jin muttered to himself while applying medicine to Shen Muyin.

"Why are you in a place like this so late at night? His Highness will trouble you later." Dong Jin didn't need to think about what he said. "It will be a little painful to apply the medicine, please bear with it."

Shen Muyin gritted his teeth and finally spoke: "Tell me...how will His Highness cause trouble?"
