Spring in the East Palace

Shen Yan frowned slightly at what Shen Muyin said, and he couldn't react to the meaning of her words for a while.

But Shen Yan still looked at Shen Muyin calmly: "This is the rule, otherwise, I won't be able to explain to the higher-ups."

"Who is above? Is it the Ministry of Justice, the Eastern Palace, or the current emperor?" Shen Muyin asked indifferently.

Shen Yan's expression changed again and again: "You are so bold, you dare to be so rampant."

Shen Zhenzhen just looked at Shen Muyin like this, and then said to Shen Yan anxiously: "Brother, sister must be scared, otherwise how could she say such a rebellious thing."

As soon as the voice fell, Shen Zhenzhen looked at Shen Muyin immediately: "Sister, don't be stupid, interfering with official duties will cause trouble."

Shen Zhenzhen was startled as she spoke: "Could it be that the assassin is really here with you? Sister, if there is an assassin hiding, it will implicate the entire Shen family. You must not be stupid."

Let Shen Zhenzhen do all the talking.

Even Shen Zhenzhen suddenly looked at the ground: "Oh my god, is this blood?"

There is a touch of scarlet on the blanket of the tent, like a blooming cherry blossom, which is particularly eye-catching on the light-colored carpet.

"What are you waiting for? Check it for me." Shen Yan immediately responded.

Shen Zhenzhen and Shen Yan, the brother and sister, work together very well. Shen Muyin is now certain that this was all a conspiracy.

The assassin did exist, but why was Donggong implicated in this incident? And was he accidentally injured?

And this assassin was probably originally targeting Shen Muyin. If she was charged with harboring an assassin, then her death would be a real pity.

This is absolutely not allowed in Yan State.

Even if she managed to escape this morning, she would be sent back to Kyoto tonight, and might even fall into the hands of the Ministry of Justice.

Ah--

It was really a good calculation.

After a moment of silence, Shen Zhenzhen seemed even calmer, looking at Shen Yan calmly.

"If Lord Shen wants to go in, I won't stop you." Shen Muyin said lightly, "But——"

She changed her tone, as if putting the choice in front of Shen Yan: "I just hope that you two adults will not regret it after entering."

There was a hint of mystery in these words, but Shen Muyin knew that even so, it could still shock Shen Yan.

Because Shen Muyin was calm enough, so calm that people couldn't tell her emotions.

If an ordinary girl met an assassin, she would definitely panic. How could she be so calm?

So Shen Yan and Wei Pei exchanged glances, and there was a hint of uncertainty in both of their eyes.

"What do you mean?" Shen Yan asked word by word with his cheeks tense.

Of course there was no assassin. The people he sent out were just hiding in Shen Muyin's tent. He just needed to catch the people and obtain the evidence.

However, Shen Muyin's current attitude made Shen Yan feel that the person in the room was not his hidden assassin, but someone else.

Shen Yan's mind worked quickly, and he immediately thought of the ambiguity between Shen Muyin and Dong Gong.

And today in the enclosure, no one saw Dong Gong appear.

But no one dared to ask about Donggong's whereabouts.

If the Eastern Palace really appeared here, they would disturb the Eastern Palace if they rushed in rashly.

Donggong likes quietness, and more importantly, Donggong has a very poor sleep quality. If you fall asleep and wake him up, you will be killed without mercy.

And for no reason.

"I don't mean anything. I just hope you two adults will consider it." Shen Muyin stood aside.

The more he said this, the calmer Shen Muyin became.

This time, it was Shen Yan who backed down.

If it was one of our people inside, we could make some noise and alert them, but now there is no news at all.

Shen Muyin remained calm throughout the whole process because she was also gambling.

He bet that this conspiracy was just as he had guessed, and that it was something Shen Yan had planned long ago.

There was no movement inside now, and Shen Yan didn't dare to have any obvious reaction because he was not sure.

The two sides are in a stalemate.

Seeing this, Shen Muyin smiled and said, "Why don't you go in and search? This will also prove my innocence, so that people won't mistakenly think that I'm harboring an assassin. I can't bear such a crime."

"Sir?" The guards in front were also waiting for Shen Yan's orders.

Shen Yan stared at Shen Muyin and asked, "Are you sure there are no assassins?"

"No." Shen Muyin remained calm, "Even if there really is an assassin, he probably wouldn't dare to enter."

Shen Muyin's words made his intentions even more obvious.

Shen Yan really understood that Dong Gong was inside.

The Eastern Palace was there, and the assassins really didn't dare to enter, fearing death for this man, who has now died tragically.

"I see that it is always quiet here. I guess the assassin escaped from the side. Lord Wei and I will go to search. If you have any situation, report it immediately." Shen Yan ordered in a cold voice.

"Okay." Shen Muyin nodded.

After Shen Yan finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.

Shen Zhenzhen frowned and looked at Shen Yan, but under such circumstances, Shen Zhenzhen did not dare to say much.

In Kyoto, anyone who dares to gossip about the Eastern Palace would be risking his life.

Shen Yan didn't stop for a second. When he was about to turn around and leave, he heard a noise outside and the sound of people running in unison.

At this moment, Shen Yan and Wei Pei looked at each other, and their expressions changed slightly.

These are the Imperial Guards. Only the Imperial Guards in the palace can be so uniform.

Sure enough, the next second Lu Nanhuai directly lifted the door curtain and entered the tent. His face was extremely sour, and he was obviously disturbed and looked unhappy.

"What are you doing? Aren't you afraid of disturbing the emperor so late at night?" Lu Nanhuai sneered and scolded harshly.

Compared with Shen Yan and Wei Pei, Lu Nanhuai's official rank is much higher.

In addition to his good relationship with the Eastern Palace, and the fact that Lu Nanhuai had the same temper as the King of Hell, naturally no one in the palace dared to provoke him.

In a sense, Lu Nanhuai's appearance means that someone is going to be in trouble.

Shen Zhenzhen was so scared that her face turned pale and she took a step back.

Shen Muyin bowed calmly and said, "Greetings, Lord Lu."

Lu Nanhuai's eyes fell on Shen Muyin and he sneered, "Get up."

He can't bear it. If you let Shen Muyin suffer any injustice, you don't know how the East Palace will disgust you.

Besides, the reason why he can come here today is because of the trouble caused by the Eastern Palace.

Donggong was looking for trouble late at night, but instead of finding any, he got himself into trouble. Now he is hiding in the boudoir of a virgin girl.

If this gets out, the Qin family will lose all face because of the Eastern Palace.

Lu Nanhuai saw the body nearby, and then he saw the noise in the camp, and he reacted immediately.

Only then did he rush over without saying a word.

Otherwise, the Eastern Palace would come back to cause trouble for him. After all, the Eastern Palace is the most unreasonable person in the world.

And this Shen Yan wanted to plot against Shen Muyin, but he was unlucky enough to meet Dong Gong.

"Greetings, Lord Lu." Shen Yan and Wei Pei also paid their respects respectfully.
