At this point, Zhao finally couldn't help it. She glared at Shen Nanzhi fiercely and gritted her teeth and said, "What are you going to do? What is your relationship with that bitch Qin Suyi? Do you want to stand up for her?"

Hearing this, Shen Nanzhi turned around and glanced at her calmly: "How you deal with her has nothing to do with me. It's just that she borrowed something from me before, and I have to take it back. This is a matter of course. Grandmother, do you think there is anything wrong with this?"

Hearing this, Zhao was so angry that she almost had a heart attack.

The person is dead. No matter what Shen Nanzhi says, who knows whether Qin Suyi really borrowed something from her.

Moreover, based on Zhao's understanding of Shen Nanzhi, it was a good thing that she didn't beat Qin Suyi with a stick that day. How could she be nice to her or even lend her things!

But since Shen Nanzhi said so, Zhao could do nothing about it except asking her to go find it. After all, she had seen Shen Nanzhi's temper. If she angered this evil creature, she might really bring people to break in, steal things and leave.

By then, you won’t be able to keep your things, and you won’t be able to save face.

Zhao, who had been taught a lesson several times, could only grit her teeth and say, "Take her to see it! Take the things and leave quickly!"

Out of sight, out of mind.

If she looked at Shen Nanzhi for one more second, she would feel a splitting headache.

Shen Nanzhi smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Grandmother. But please tell the maids to find all the things. After all, I can't tolerate any sand in my eyes."

Zhao suppressed her anger and said, "Okay, okay! Give it all to her! Give it all to her!"

Shen Nanzhi was too lazy to play tricks with her, so she followed the maid who led the way to the side room where Qin Suyi had lived before.

All the furnishings in the room had been removed, and apart from the tables, chairs and benches, there was no other trace of Qin Suyi left behind.

With Zhao's instructions, someone quickly returned the things that had been taken away from Qin Suyi.

Shen Nanzhi looked at them one by one. They were just ordinary clothes and some simple jewelry. There was nothing special. She didn't even find the jade pendant that was hanging on Qin Suyi's body at that time.

Seeing that she looked unhappy, the two maids who came to deliver things knelt down in fear, shaking like sieves.

"Miss, we were responsible for taking care of Concubine Qin's daily life. All of Concubine Qin's belongings are here, except for a jade pendant. Concubine Qin was wearing it when she went out this morning, but it was gone when she came back. Maybe she lost it on the way. We didn't see it when we sorted out Concubine Qin's belongings. Miss, please understand. It's definitely not us who embezzled."

Perhaps it was because Shen Nanzhi had someone whip Liu Mama and almost killed her in public, which scared the maids of the Jiang family very much. Now that they saw that Zhao couldn't do anything to her, they were even more in awe of Shen Nanzhi.

He is more perceptive than the gradually weakened Fuling.

Shen Nanzhi waved his hand: "Forget it, get up."

Judging from their expressions, they were probably not lying, but the jade pendant was probably not lost on the road.

Shen Nanzhi felt that the most likely possibility was to ask Xiao Chuyun's people to take it away as well. After all, the jade pendant was related to Doctor Lu, and Xiao Chuyun was so cautious that he would not have missed it.

As for whether it is true or not, we can only wait for Xiao Chuyun to come back and ask.

Shen Nanzhi didn't find anything here, so he didn't delay any further and turned back to his yard.

As soon as Shen Nanzhi left, Jiang Shiyan, who heard the news of Qin Suyi's death, rushed back.

Although Jiang Shiyan felt that Zhao's disposal of Qin Suyi's body was inappropriate, he couldn't say anything since things had come to this point.

Moreover, Qin Suyi died suddenly, and he didn't even dare to publicize the matter, nor did he dare to ask a doctor or a coroner to come and take a look. After all, Zhao and others had done a lot of things to Qin Suyi in private in the past few days.

Even if Qin Suyi's death was not caused by them, if the news got out, it would be bad for the Jiang family's reputation.

As soon as Jiang Shiyan entered the room, Jiang Qingyuan knelt down.

"Father!"

After Jiang Shiyan dismissed the servants, Jiang Qingyuan said angrily, "Father, please sever the father-daughter relationship with Shen Nanzhi! If we keep her, she will bring disaster to our Jiang family sooner or later! Moreover, she is becoming more and more arrogant, even trampling on the face of my grandmother and father!"

Jiang Shiyan sat down on the main seat and was slow to speak.

Jiang Qingyuan knew that he didn't really have any father-daughter relationship with Shen Nanzhi, but he was reluctant to part with his daughter, so he was weighing the pros and cons.

Just at this time, Zhao came over after hearing the news. After receiving Jiang Qingyuan's eye signal, Zhao also advised: "Shen Nanzhi, that evil creature, will harm our Jiang family sooner or later. What are you still hesitating about? If you don't sever your father-daughter relationship with her, Qingyuan will never be able to stand up straight as the true heir of this family. You don't even know that she has come to make trouble again today!"

Hearing this, Jiang Shiyan frowned and looked at Jiang Qingyuan questioningly.

Jiang Qingyuan quickly exaggerated the situation of Shen Nanzhi's visit today.

Zhao did not forget to fan the flames: "She doesn't take me, her grandmother, seriously at all. Things like this will definitely happen again in the future. We can't do anything to her. We can't let her bully us all our lives. Qingyuan will have to marry in the future. What if this evil creature comes to make trouble again? Who will dare to marry here in the future? It's a good thing for her to break off the relationship. I wish I could beat her to death! Giving birth to such an evil creature is a misfortune for our family!"

At this point, Zhao couldn't help but sigh heavily: "If you ask me, we shouldn't have married into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion in the first place. We can't afford to marry this rich girl! We've worshipped her like a bodhisattva for so many years, and now, not only has she fallen into a bad state, but now, this little evil creature she gave birth to is so arrogant that he doesn't even take us seriously. If you had listened to me in the first place..."

Before Zhao could finish, Jiang Shiyan's face darkened and he interrupted her immediately: "Mother, be careful with your words."

The affairs of the court were already enough to upset him, and the harem was still not at peace. Jiang Shiyan rubbed his brows with a headache and said, "I will consider this matter."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao snorted coldly and scolded, "What are you still considering? Do you really want to wait until she piss me off to death before you make up your mind? Do you still think that the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion or the Prince of Zhenbei's Mansion will be able to help you in the future? Look at that little evil creature now, he is so arrogant and hates us to the core, how is that possible!"

"I'm going to make this clear today. You can only choose one between that little evildoer and me. Otherwise, I'm going to have people pack up and go back to my hometown to farm!"

Having said that, Zhao was about to stand up and walk out, but because she stood up too hastily and was so angry, she fainted.

Jiang Shiyan's first reaction was that she was deliberately acting to scare him, but when he looked more closely, he found that there was something wrong with Zhao's expression.

"Mother!"

Jiang Shiyan rushed forward to help her, but was still a step too late. He watched Zhao hit her head on the corner of the table and fell heavily to the ground, unconscious.

"Call the doctor!"

Jiang Shiyan and Jiang Qingyuan's faces changed drastically. They hurriedly lifted Zhao up and asked the maid to call a doctor. After all the trouble, Zhao woke up barely, but suffered from hemiplegia.

She couldn't move the left half of her body at all and couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

She blamed everything on Shen Nanzhi, so as soon as she woke up, she stared at Jiang Shiyan, calling him mumbled, and her right hand, which she could barely raise, pointed hard in the direction of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

Jiang Shiyan knew that she was still cursing Shen Nanzhi as a demon.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Shiyan no longer hesitated. He immediately wrote a document to sever the relationship and went to Jingzhao Yin in person.

When Zhuifeng brought back the news word for word, Shen Nanzhi was reading the prescription that Lu Pianpian had written for her.

Hearing this, she didn't feel the slightest bit of emotion, and just replied calmly: "Okay, that saves me from having to worry about it anymore."

You could say she was heartless or cold, but Zhao's life or death would not cause Shen Nanzhi any concern.

From the moment she learned that Zhao and Jiang Shiyan had conspired to drug her mother, Shen Nanzhi's ties with the Jiang family were severed.

Now all we have to do is wait for Jiang Shiyan to send over the document of severing the engagement.

After Zhuifeng left, Shen Nanzhi's eyes once again fell on Lu Pianpian's awkward handwriting.

Who on earth would kidnap Lu Pianpian?

She was just a half-grown child, with no personal grudges and no identity or background, but her medical skills might be coveted by others.

Thinking of this, Shen Nanzhi suddenly had an idea and remembered to come alone.

Xie family, fourth Miss Xie.

Because apart from the Shen family, not many people know that Lu Pianpian is proficient in medicine.

Shen Nanzhi could count them on one hand.

The only time Lu Pianpian showed off his medical skills in public was when he saved Fourth Miss Xie at Fuyun Tower.

Ordinary doctors were helpless, and it was Lu Pianpian who saved Fourth Miss Xie's life.

Although her life was saved, Fourth Miss Xie had blood clots in her brain and was still in a state of dementia.

Lu Pianpian could also be saved, but Shen Nanzhi thought of how Fourth Miss Xie had repeatedly quarreled with her and caused trouble, and also how she was used as a knife because of her stupidity in the incident at Fuyun Tower, which had harmed herself and Liu Jingya. Shen Nanzhi naturally did not want to be a pushover, so she did not let Lu Pianpian take on this matter.

Could it be related to her?

Thinking of this, Shen Nanzhi quickly asked Qiuyu to call a secret guard over and asked him to find a way to sneak into the Xie family and investigate.

Just as I gave the instructions, I received a report from the concierge that Liu Jingya had arrived.

She was also a person who couldn't sit still. When she heard that Shen Nanzhi was well again, she limped over even though her legs were not fully healed yet.

As soon as they met, Liu Jingya burst into tears, "Sister Zhizhi! You worried me to death!"

She wanted to hug Shen Nanzhi, but suddenly remembered Lu Pianpian's instructions. She was afraid that Shen Nanzhi's body could not bear it. She froze in place and looked Shen Nanzhi up and down before saying, "I came to see you a few days ago and you said you were getting better. How come you are suddenly so sick that you can't get up? How are you now?"

It seems that cousin Changan is still reliable and didn't even mention Liu Jingya.

Shen Nanzhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's okay. Pianpian isolated me so that I could recover from my injuries and not be disturbed. I am fine now."

After hearing this, and seeing that Shen Nanzhi's complexion had indeed improved a lot, Liu Jingya knew that she was not comforting herself, so she breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good, I was going to come to see you the other day, but after hearing the news, I couldn't sleep at night. Even my cousin Changan has not been seen in the past two days, which really worried me to death."

While she was talking, Liu Jingya's bright eyes had already turned around the room, "Eh? Where is that greedy girl Pianpian? I was afraid that she would scold me again, so I didn't dare to pull you away. Why didn't I see her? I brought her my chef's specialty dish!"

As she spoke, Liu Jingya raised her hand, and the maid behind her hurriedly put down the food box. Even before it was opened, the aroma had already overflowed from the food box.

If it were any other time, Lu Pianpian would have pounced on him like a hungry tiger.

But today there was no movement at all.

Not to mention Shen Nanzhi, even Qiuyu beside her had tears in her eyes. Only then did Liu Jingya finally realize that something was wrong.

She asked nervously, "Sister Zhizhi, what happened? Where is Pianpian?"

Seeing the food box, Shen Nanzhi also became sad. She shook her head and said, "She left for something and I don't know when she will be back."

Liu Jingya was accompanied by a maid, so Shen Nanzhi didn't say much. Even if Liu Jingya knew, she couldn't help and it would only make one more person worry.

Liu Jingya didn't think about it, she just sighed, "Alas! It's a pity that I specially asked the kitchen to make these delicious dishes for her. They were all what she had talked about before. Although that girl is smart, I'm not used to her not being here to watch over her."

Shen Nanzhi nodded and forced a smile: "It's okay, it shouldn't be a big deal. Maybe he'll be back in two days, and you can just send it back then."

Liu Jingya, who didn't know the inside story, couldn't help but joked, "Great! So you all think I'm a sucker for running errands!"

As she was talking, Liu Jingya suddenly remembered something and felt lost again.

"I'm going to the Autumn Hunting Tour the day after tomorrow, but unfortunately I can't go because of my leg condition. I originally promised to take you with me, but now you've become a burden. It shows that I can't make big promises in advance."

Shen Nanzhi was about to say something to comfort her, but she frowned again and reminded Shen Nanzhi, "I can't go. I don't know how many girls will give sachets to my cousin Changan! You have to help me keep an eye on him when the time comes."

Shen Nanzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Don't worry, if cousin Changan was the kind of person who would be easily seduced by a little girl's sachet, would you have chased him for so many years?"

Liu Jingya thought about it and realized that this was the truth, but she couldn't help but hum: "Then you have to keep an eye on her for me. You can only recognize me as your cousin's wife."

Shen Nanzhi nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, but then again, cousin Changan probably won't be participating in this autumn hunting."

Although Shen Changan is usually unskilled in teasing cats and dogs and loves to join in the fun, he is not very interested in the autumn hunting. In his words, there are too many things to do and too many rules, which makes him uncomfortable.

He didn't go in his previous life. Only his uncle went on behalf of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

Shen Nanzhi always felt uneasy when she thought of the autumn hunting in her previous life. She had mentioned it to her uncle before, and her uncle had been on guard. Moreover, her uncle was now on his way to Qingzhou, and he would surely be able to successfully avoid the ending of his previous life.

However, Shen Nanzhi didn't expect that Liu Jingya tilted her head and asked, "Huh? Don't you know yet? Cousin Changan must go. He is the first one on the list of children from noble families appointed by the emperor to accompany him."

Hearing this, Shen Nanzhi's heart suddenly sank.
