The daughter of the emperor is reborn to be beautiful and cool, and the King of Zhenbei loves her wi

"Are there any people from Qingzhou among the Shen family's secret guards?"

Jiang Shiyan and Zhao Wan's ancestral home is in Qingzhou.

Zhuifeng lowered his eyes and said, "If I remember correctly, Wang Qian is from Qingzhou."

How could the Jiang and Zhao families be completely unaware of the dirty deeds done by those two people back then? It was only because Jiang Shiyan promised them enough benefits, and they were eager for Jiang Shiyan to successfully marry into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion so that they could also gain more benefits and conveniences from it.

Before choosing Jiang Shiyan as his son-in-law, Shen Nanzhi's grandfather had sent people to Qingzhou to investigate Jiang Shiyan. For the sake of their own interests, the Jiang and Zhao families spoke in unison and did not reveal any flaws.

Seeing that Jiang Shiyan's official position was getting higher and higher and he was rising rapidly, the appetites of these two families also grew.

Jiang Shiyan's own salary was barely enough to handle the social interactions within the Jiang household, so how could he have any extra money to fill the holes in these two families?

Five years ago, a group of horse thieves suddenly poured into Qingzhou and massacred a small town outside the city of Qingzhou, among which were the Jiang and Zhao families.

When they heard the news and saw Jiang Yanran crying, Shen Nanzhi and A Niang felt heartbroken. After knowing about Jiang Shiyan's shameful relationship with them, Shen Nanzhi realized that the appearance of that group of horse thieves might not be accidental.

With Jiang Shiyan's cold and cruel personality, he is definitely capable of killing people to silence them and prevent future troubles.

At that time, he was serving as the prefect of Yunzhou, which borders Qingzhou. He was almost an all-powerful figure in the local area, so this was not a difficult task for him.

Although the Jiang and Zhao families do not deserve sympathy, they are still a breakthrough point to pull Jiang Shiyan down from his high position.

Shen Nanzhi thought that even if the fact that Jiang Shiyan secretly married another woman was brought to light in the future, he would at most be despised by others. With his current status, he would not be able to be shaken. But if he colluded with horse thieves and even murdered hundreds of people from the Jiang and Zhao families, the result would be completely different.

As early as the day he arrived in Beijing, Shen Nanzhi sent dozens of secret guards around him to Qing and Yun states to visit and investigate.

If he did it, there would definitely be clues left behind.

As she spoke, Shen Nanzhi turned and went into the inner room, and took out a jade pendant that she had someone make in advance that was used on Jiang Shiyan.

Shen Nanzhi handed the jade pendant to Zhuifeng and said, "Call Wang Qian and pay a visit directly. Claim to be a servant who once served in the Zhao family's ancestral home. Say that you took the young master Zhao Ji out and escaped a disaster. You narrowly escaped death in the past few years and finally came to Kyoto."

When the Zhao family was tragically murdered by robbers, the six-year-old young master of the Zhao family disappeared.

Over the years, Jiang Shiyan wore a mask of hypocrisy and never gave up the search.

Whether he really wants to find this only child for his maternal family or just want to wipe out the roots, probably only he himself knows.

As long as Wang Qian came with this "token" and mentioned Zhao Ji, if the person living in the house was really Zhao Wan, there was no way she would refuse.

Shen Nanzhi urged, "Besides, just ask Wang Qian to introduce himself and ask for Zhao Wan by name. The reaction of the gatekeeper will also reveal whether it is Zhao Wan who lives there."

Although Zhuifeng's description seemed almost correct, Shen Nanzhi still wanted to be more cautious.

Moreover, under the name of Zhao Ji, no matter whether Zhao Wan was captured or not, as long as Jiang Shiyan was the one who organized the incident between the Jiang and Zhao families, he must have something to hide and would be more likely to reveal his flaws.

This is also part of Shen Nanzhi's plan against Jiang Shiyan.

"After confirming Zhao Wan's identity, when she asks about Zhao Ji, you can have Wang Qian lead her to the teahouse across the street to meet him, and then..."

Since this matter involves Zhao Ji, Zhao Wan must be tempted, and since he is just across the street, she can relax her guard.

Although she had dozens of guards in the house, she would not bring too many people with her when she left the house in order not to attract attention.

Shen Nanzhi asked Zhuifeng and others to ambush in the teahouse in advance, so that as soon as she showed up, they could knock her out and abduct her.

As for where they were taken abducted.

Shen Nanzhi frowned and thought for a while, "I remember there used to be a silk and satin shop next to the Jiang Mansion. It seems to be also owned by our Shen family?"

Zhuifeng nodded quickly, "It is still the same now, but ever since Lord Jiang bought the mansion and moved in, the old lady of the Jiang family disliked the noisy business of the silk shop next door and came to the house to look for the young master twice. For Lord Jiang's sake, the young master asked people to move the silk shop to another place, and those courtyards became empty."

On the surface, Lord Jiang established a firm foothold in the capital on his own and took over the Jiang Mansion.

But in fact, not to mention that he could not have done without the help of the connections in the Zhenguo Mansion in his career, even the Jiang family's house that Jiang Shiyan bought at that time was originally the property of the Shen family. Under his persuasion, his uncle understood that it was inconvenient for him to go in and out of the back house of the Zhenguo Mansion. Not only did he allow him to move out, he even sold the house to him at less than 10% of the price.

He felt that with his abilities, being the son-in-law of the Shen family was a shame and unbearable, but this was clearly the path he had chosen from the beginning.

He enjoyed the convenience and wealth brought to him by being the son-in-law of the Shen family, but he was full of disgust and contempt for this identity, and he also hated the Shen family to the core.

Shen Nanzhi felt a little nauseous when she thought that she was his descendant and had the blood of such a person flowing in her veins.

Shen Nanzhi's thoughts drifted a little far away. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhuifeng: "That's perfect. Let's pack up and lock her up there temporarily."

Even though Shen Nanzhi wanted to call them, Jiang Shiyan, his daughter and his two daughters could not find anyone no matter how hard they tried.

She wanted Zhao Wan to witness the chaos in the Jiang family with her own eyes, and let her see that Jiang Shiyan was doomed!

Zhuifeng took the order and retreated. In less than an hour, he had accomplished the task.

It can be seen how much Zhao Wan cares about her nephew Zhao Ji. It is just unknown whether she knew about the extermination of the Jiang and Zhao families.

Shen Nanzhi decided to meet Zhao Wan.

However, before leaving, she went to her mother first and asked for her opinion.

Shen Yanxin just drank her tea calmly and told her to do as she pleased.

She no longer cared about Jiang Shiyan, let alone Zhao Wan's life or death.

She has been recuperating these days, hoping to get better soon so that she can be a help to Shen Nanzhi rather than a burden.

Shen Nanzhi sat with her for a while before getting on the carriage and going around to the back street of Jiang Mansion. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he turned around and entered the house next to Jiang Mansion.

Zhao Wan was locked up in an underground warehouse by secret guards.

When Shen Nanzhi went over, she was still asleep.

Shen Nanzhi simply asked someone to pour a bucket of cold water on her.

The icy cold feeling made her shudder instantly, and she woke up in an instant.

But her hands and feet were tied to the bluestone floor with chains made of fine iron, and she could not move at all.

Before she could recover from her shock, she was suddenly met with Shen Nanzhi's face with a cold smile.

She froze.

Come to think of it, they haven't seen each other for five or six years.

Shen Nanzhi was still a little girl who had not grown up at that time.

When they met again, Zhao Wan was not surprised by such a big change.

Obviously, she had secretly met Shen Nanzhi during the days when Shen Nanzhi returned to Beijing.

"Zhizhi, what are you going to do?"

Zhao Wan stared at Shen Nanzhi nervously.

She has a petite and graceful figure. Even though there are traces of time on her temples, the softness and grace of her youth can still be seen.

Shen Nanzhi smiled and said, "Long time no see. Aunt Wan has good eyesight and recognized me right away."

Zhao Wan's eyes flashed with evasion, but she quickly calmed down and said, "You are so good-looking that even if you were young at the time, one glance would make people unforgettable."

Shen Nanzhi sneered: "Is that so."

Zhao Wan nodded: "Of course, Zhizhi, what's going on? Who brought me here? Zhizhi, tell someone to let me go."

Looking at her expression, she had clearly seen it, but she was still able to talk to Shen Nanzhi as if nothing had happened.

This kind of mentality is more patient than Jiang Yanran's.

Shen Nanzhi raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course it's my father."

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Wan denied it without thinking: "How is it possible!"

Shen Nanzhi smiled and said, "How is it impossible? My mother knows everything about Aunt Wan and my father. She wants to divorce him, but she can't bear to give up the Shen family's wealth and honor, nor can she bear to give up her own reputation. So, she has no choice but to let Aunt Wan down."

"Will not!"

Zhao Wan's eyes immediately turned red, and she frowned and looked at Shen Nanzhi: "Your father would never do this."

Shen Nanzhi had a seal of Jiang Shiyan on her finger and sighed helplessly, "Shouldn't Aunt Wan know what kind of person my father is better than me? He has always been clear about what choice to make and when."

Zhao Wan still didn't believe it, but there was already a hint of hesitation in her eyes.

Shen Nanzhi continued, "Besides, if my father doesn't tell me, how can I know the whereabouts of Aunt Wan? Aunt Wan is indeed important to him, but compared to his future and the future of his two children, what will he choose?"

Zhao Wan was shocked for a moment, as if she didn't expect that Shen Nanzhi knew the identities of Jiang Qingyuan and Jiang Yanran. But soon she lowered her head and burst into tears, but still said stubbornly: "I don't believe it, I don't believe it! Unless you ask your father to come to see me in person."

Shen Nanzhi hooked her finger: "That won't do, Aunt Wan, guess why my father handed you over to me?"

Zhao Wan stood there in a daze.

Shen Nanzhi turned around and glanced at the medicine bowl in Zhuifeng's hand behind him, sneering: "My mother is weak and has been taking nourishing medicine for the past two years. I saw that Aunt Wan didn't look very well, and I thought her health might be seriously damaged, so I asked someone to send you a portion of my mother's nourishing medicine. Don't worry, Aunt Wan, this medicine is exactly the same as my mother's."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Wan's face turned pale as paper.

She shook her head repeatedly, staring at the bowl of medicine with a nervous look on her face, and said, "I'm in good health, I don't need to take any medicine to nourish myself."

So, she really knew that there was something wrong with A Niang's medicine.

Shen Nanzhi's eyes gradually turned cold, and she simply stopped pretending with her, "It turns out that Aunt Wan also knows that this soup will make people weaker and weaker, and it can even kill people!"

Zhao Wan was soaked through and shivering all over.

I don’t know if it was because I was scared or because I was cold.

She shook her head repeatedly and choked up, "It's not me! It was your father who wanted to do this, not me!"

Shen Nanzhi sneered: "But my father said that you instigated it. You wanted my mother to make room for you. You wanted to seize the assets of the Shen family."

"Oh, there's more." Shen Nanzhi took the bowl of soup from Zhuifeng and walked over to Zhao Wan. "Didn't you ask Jiang Yanran to poison me?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Wan froze, her face lost all color, and even her eyes were visibly panicked.

She never expected that Shen Nanzhi knew so much!

Seeing Shen Nanzhi's determined expression, it was obvious that she would not listen to her excuses anymore. As she watched the bowl of medicine getting closer and closer, Zhao Wan said hysterically: "What can I do? All of this should have been mine! We were going to get married, but it was your mother's Zhenguo Mansion that caused us to be separated from each other. It was you two who took away everything that should have belonged to me! You made me live in darkness like a mouse, and I couldn't even recognize my own son. I had to recognize your mother, that bitch, as my mother! I hate it! It's such a pity to let her slowly decay and die like this. I wish..."

Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap!

Before she could finish, Shen Nanzhi raised his hand and slapped her several times.

After beating her, she was still not satisfied, so he raised his leg and kicked her in the lower abdomen a few times, then said angrily: "Every wrong has its perpetrator, it was clearly Jiang Shiyan who cheated in marriage first, and my mother was also kept in the dark by you, what right do you have to hate my mother!"

"If you want to hate someone, you should hate Jiang Shiyan who abandoned his wife and children! But you can't let go of Jiang Shiyan, and you can't bear to give up the glory and wealth that the Shen family's status and wealth have brought you. If you had told me the truth at the beginning, my mother would not even look at Jiang Shiyan! You obviously had so many opportunities, but you still chose to deceive and scheme with Jiang Shiyan! In the end, you ate the blood of the Shen family, and you still have the nerve to blame my mother for breaking you up! Where do you get the nerve!"

Shen Nanzhi was tired of fighting and had vented enough.

Zhao Wan had already collapsed to the ground, without even the strength to speak.

Shen Nanzhi squatted down, grabbed her chin, and directly poured the bowl of medicine into her mouth.

"I am not a good man or a faithful woman. I will take revenge on you, Jiang Shiyan, and your two bastards one by one. You have schemed against my mother, and I will pay you back in full. Of course, you have a good body, so this medicine will not kill you for the time being, but it will make you so weak that you can hardly lift your hands. I want you to experience all the suffering and pain that my mother has gone through."

Zhao Wan was choked by the bowl of medicine and started coughing. She stretched her neck and tried to spit it all out, but Shen Nanzhi held her throat tightly, like a chicken's neck, preventing her from spitting out anything. She swallowed it all and was about to suffocate when Shen Nanzhi loosened his grip on her.

She opened her mouth to curse, but as soon as she opened her mouth she found that she couldn't make any sound, and even her throat was burning with pain.

Seeing this, Shen Nanzhi smiled slightly: "Oh, by the way, Aunt Wan, I forgot to tell you that I also added mute medicine to this soup. Since you speak so harshly, you should never speak again."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Wan became so angry that she fainted.

Shen Nanzhi then handed the bowl of medicine to Zhuifeng and walked out of the underground warehouse.

The sun was shining outside and the flowers in the garden were in full bloom, but she couldn't feel any warmth at all.

Shen Nanzhi sighed, then came out from the back door and prepared to walk out along the long alley, but before he took a few steps, he was hit by a walnut.

She felt pain and rubbed the top of her head. She subconsciously looked in the direction where the walnut was thrown. When she raised her head, she met a pair of smiling eyes.
