When Manager Li saw Shen Lingfeng's state, he burst into tears. "It was the eldest lady. The eldest lady hired someone to break the second wife's legs and severely injured the second master. Even the old lady was so angry that she fell ill."

"How could this happen!?"

Shen Lingfeng couldn't believe it, his face suddenly turned gloomy, "I will beat that rebellious girl to death!"

"Don't worry, sir!"

Manager Li hurriedly stopped Shen Lingfeng from acting impulsively. "We need to think about this matter carefully. The young lady is no longer the same as before. The Rose Courtyard where she is is surrounded like an iron barrel. No one is allowed to enter easily. Didn't the Prime Minister order him to leave when he went there last time?"

After hearing what he said, Shen Lingfeng hesitated. The last time he went there, he was indeed driven away again and again by Shen Moyu's maid, which made him feel extremely unhappy. But he didn't think much about it at that time, but now he felt a little unhappy.

"Where are mother and the others now? Take me to see them."

Shen Lingfeng's face was solemn, but he also had his own considerations. If Shen Moyu really did such a heinous thing, he would naturally do something.

But if someone else in the Shen family did something that led to today's outcome, he would not really go and hold Shen Moyu accountable.

"I will take you there."

Seeing that Shen Lingfeng did not look depressed, Manager Li couldn't help but feel secretly proud, thinking that Shen Moyu would have something to gain from this.

Magnolia Courtyard.

Before he entered, he heard Shen Wanfeng's screams and howls. Shen Lingfeng frowned, "Was he beaten so badly?"

Manager Li smiled bitterly, "I'm really not just trying to pick on the young lady. You'll see after you see it."

There were several doctors standing in front of Shen Wanfeng's bed, all of them were famous in the imperial city, but when Shen Lingfeng asked about his injuries, they all shook their heads with embarrassment.

"Prime Minister, it's not that we didn't try our best to treat you, it's just that Second Master's injury is very difficult to treat."

Shen Lingfeng had a gloomy face and his voice sounded very majestic, making people feel daunted. "What do you mean it's difficult to handle? Did I pay you to come here just to hear you say it's difficult to handle?"

"Please forgive me, sir. It's all my fault. Please find someone else who can help me!"

Even though Shen Lingfeng was the prime minister, these people were not afraid. After all, they were in the imperial city, and many of them treated the injuries of aristocratic families.

"Go away, go away! Since you don't have the ability, I will ask the palace physician, Steward Li, to see you off!"

Shen Lingfeng was so furious with this group of doctors that they sent them all away before they even had the chance to ask about Shen Wanfeng's condition.

Manager Li was in great pain. After the doctors left, he told Shen Lingfeng the truth, "Prime Minister, the imperial doctors in the palace were not allowed to leave the palace this morning because Concubine Ruan was ill. The ones you just drove away were the best doctors the entire imperial city could hire."

It was not until now that Manager Li said it, which made Shen Lingfeng so angry that he fell backwards, puffing his beard and glaring, "Why didn't you say it just now? Now everyone has left!"

"Big brother, big brother..."

Shen Wanfeng called out to Shen Lingfeng several times, and the latter heard him and walked forward. He was still concerned about his only brother, "How did you get hurt like this?"

"Brother, I am incompetent. Yoyo is too willful. I can't teach her. You should teach her. I just scolded her a few words last night, and she had me beaten like this. Brother, you have to make the decision for me!"

Shen Wanfeng said these words while holding his breath, then fell heavily on the bed, staring at Shen Lingfeng with wide eyes. He could only breathe in but not out, which scared Shen Lingfeng to death.

But after a while, he recovered on his own, though he was still very weak. Shen Lingfeng felt as if he had been led around by the nose from the beginning until now.

Now that he had calmed down and thought carefully, he sat on the wooden block beside the bed and looked at Manager Li with a gloomy face, "Can you tell me now what happened?"

Manager Li was frightened by the gloomy Shen Lingfeng. He knelt on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head. "Old slave, I only know a little bit. I guess you have to let the second lady tell you the details. I was not there at the time."

Manager Li is also a smart man. He knows that at a time like this, the more you say, the more mistakes you will make. Besides, everyone knows that Shen Moyu is the one who makes the decisions in the Shen family, both openly and secretly.

Although he was a member of the Magnolia Courtyard, he only did things according to orders, nothing more. He also had elderly parents and young children to take care of, so it was impossible for him to risk his life for his master.

"If that's the case, why don't you quickly invite someone over!?"

Shen Lingfeng couldn't help but kick Manager Li. He hadn't slept since yesterday and was extremely tired. He thought he could have a good rest when he returned home, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen. He felt a dull pain in his temple for a moment.

Manager Li, who was kicked down, didn't dare to cry out in pain. He crawled out to ask for help. After a while, several servants came in carrying the whimpering Second Madam Qian Ning.

Seeing Shen Lingfeng was like seeing a life-saving straw. She immediately cried with a choked voice, "Brother, brother, help me, your Yoyo is simply a demon. Look at how my husband has been beaten and has injuries all over his body, and my legs, ouch!"

As she spoke, she did not forget to lift her legs and cried out "Ouch, ouch" in pain. Shen Lingfeng watched coldly and did not take it seriously, because he knew very well that this sister-in-law in front of him was the one who was best at complaining.

"Why would Yoyo suddenly do such a heavy hand to you guys out of nowhere?"

Shen Lingfeng also sensed that something was wrong. If it was said that Shen Moyu had changed, that was indeed true. But no matter how much he had changed, it was impossible for him to beat up his own elders for no reason.

When asked by Shen Lingfeng, Qian Ning's face turned pale, but then he seemed to think of something and raised his head to look at Shen Lingfeng more confidently, "Brother, no matter what the reason is, Yoyo attacked her elders, which is a great rebellion. You must not let her off easily!"

"presumptuous!"

Shen Lingfeng shouted, scaring Qian Ning so much that he flinched. However, he did not take it seriously. Instead, he continued to question with a sullen face, "I am asking you a question now, just answer it. As for the rest, I don't want to hear it!"

It’s not that Shen Lingfeng loves Shen Moyu so much, but this daughter will be of great use to him in the future, and he has not forgotten the agreement with Wuyang Hou Su Boyan.

It is impossible to punish Shen Moyu without any evidence just because of the complaint made by Shen Wanfeng and his wife. If she really becomes the Crown Princess or even the Queen in the future, she will be second only to the Emperor. At that time, what will Shen Wanfeng and his wife be?

Thinking of this, Shen Lingfeng looked at Qian Ning with a more stern look, "Tell me clearly what you said. If I find out that you lied, I will never let you off!"
