Reborn to be a mistress, she went crazy killing the legitimate daughter

Dong Xizhou quietly packed up the things in the art shop, as well as the fees he had earned over the past ten days, and escaped through the window in the dead of night.

They didn't realize it until daybreak. Everyone started looking everywhere, but could not find any trace of him.

The shopkeeper had someone check the items in the store to make sure nothing had been stolen, and then came to report the situation to Shen Yiran, which delayed him another half a day.

Shen Yiran was furious when he heard this, but he refused to show it on his face. When he heard the shopkeeper's report that this man was somewhat knowledgeable and would not dare to steal things from the Marquis' Mansion, he could not help but scold him.

Do you know how much time has been wasted by this?

The possibility of the Jiang family descendants who escaped and are still alive has been reduced by half!

"I understand. There's no need to make a big deal about this. If a guest comes, just explain it casually."

The shopkeeper felt it was meaningless after hearing this. He had done so much and saved the store's property, but he didn't get any praise. He was a little unhappy and turned around and left.

Shen Yiran immediately sent Bai Zhi to deliver food to Bo Jinnian's yamen.

Bo Jinnian happened to be out on business today, and Bai Zhi had to come back because of what he had done.

Shen Yiran was a little anxious. If he didn't go find the descendants of the Jiang family, there would be no chance of survival!

Anxious Shen Yiran thought back to what the shopkeeper had just said.

"This person has always been restless and is not someone who wants to stay in our store for long."

"He refused to spend a penny of the money, and refused to go to dinner when others invited him. So he saved the money for this. No one stopped him. If he wants to leave, can we stop him? This is not a buyout contract."

The descendants of the Jiang family are aloof and look down on ordinary people. It would cost a lot of money for him to escape, but he refused to take it. Such a person who doesn't know how to adapt may not be able to run far.

Shen Yiran thought about it, took out the map and considered several routes, but then eliminated them one by one.

Because hiring a carriage and so on for escape would expose him, this person is not a fool and it is impossible for him not to think of it.

Shen Yiran took a pen and circled on the map of Kyoto. The descendants of the Jiang family might not have left Kyoto, they should still be hiding somewhere!

"Let's go and pay a visit to Mr. Liu!"

Mr. Liu also heard that Dong Xizhou had run away and was very puzzled. When he heard that Shen Yiran had come, he knew that he had come for this matter, so he immediately welcomed him in and asked the guests to sit down.

"In an emergency, I won't exchange pleasantries. Mr. Liu, if Dong Xizhou hasn't left Kyoto yet, where do you think he would be hiding?"

Mr. Liu listened and began to think seriously.

"He is not an easy person to talk to. Although I have met him several times, I have never heard him mention any family members in Kyoto. If they are in Kyoto, they should stay in an inn, right?"

"Mr. Liu, please think about it carefully?"

Shen Yiran originally came to ask Mr. Liu for some information about the descendants of the Jiang family, but when he saw Mr. Liu coming to greet him, he seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

When asked about his possible whereabouts, Mr. Liu lowered his eyelids and did not dare to look at anyone.

Shen Yiran concluded that Mr. Liu must know where the descendants of the Jiang family are.

Mr. Liu hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "I really don't know."

Shen Yiran heard this and smiled gently, "Don't worry, Mr. Liu. I have no ill will towards this man. I know a lot about his identity and his affairs, probably more than Mr. Liu, so I am not afraid of being implicated."

Mr. Liu heard that he was seen through, and could only sigh: "When he met me before, he told me his identity and said that he might need my help and protection in the future, so I gave him an address. He should be there now."

Shen Yiran didn't care about anything else and immediately ordered: "Tell me quickly!"

Mr. Liu was a little scared. After telling the address, he was worried about catching up: "It will be faster if I lead the way!"

Shen Yiran did not stop him, and continued to ask while sitting in the carriage: "It is also a pity that Mr. Liu's dilapidated house is still preserved."

That was the house he lived in when he was down and out. Shen Yiran never thought he still kept it.

"Nowadays, the power of the government is growing, but people should not forget their roots. I have experienced this once before, and I don't want to experience it again, so I must remember the lesson and reflect on myself at all times."

Shen Yiran listened in silence. Having experienced it once, he must not forget the lesson. These two sentences were engraved in his heart.

But when they arrived at the mansion, they found no one, there were signs of a fight in the room, and blood splattered on the bedroom wall.

When Mr. Liu saw this, he immediately turned around, covered his chest and sat outside the door, gasping for breath.

Shen Yiran looked at the bloodstain carefully. It looked like it was splashed out by a heavy blow while he was lying on the bed. Judging from the intensity of the blow, there was a great possibility that the descendants of the Jiang family were still alive.

Shen Yiran immediately turned around and said to Mr. Liu, "It's none of Mr. Liu's business. Someone has been following him. That person didn't stop him on the street, but attacked him here. He must want to catch him alive. Don't worry, he's still alive!"

After Shen Yiran finished speaking, he nodded to Mr. Liu, who was relieved, and said firmly: "Don't worry, I will find a way. Mr. Liu, go back first and don't go out these few days."

Mr. Liu listened, nodded, struggled to stand up, and bowed, saying: "My wife has worked hard, don't worry about me, I will take the carriage back by myself."

Shen Yiran nodded, and without bothering with formalities, he went out first, got on the carriage, and sent someone to look for Bo Jinnian while he went.

Fortunately, Bo Jinnian had already returned to the yamen and was writing a report. When he heard the report from his subordinates, he thought about it and immediately packed up his things and came out.

"Madam asked me to tell the Marquis that the descendant of the Jiang family was captured after escaping. He should be injured, but he is still alive."

Bo Jinnian narrowed his eyes after hearing this, and then walked a few steps, stopped and said, "Go back and tell my wife that I will go find another one."

Bo Jinnian's scouts have been keeping an eye on Qin Feiqing. Since he is still in the yamen and has not returned yet, they are also guarding outside the yamen.

Seeing Bo Jinnian coming, he immediately replied: "I have never been out."

Bo Jinnian didn't believe it, so he sent someone to ask the doorman. The doorman went in to call him, and when he came out, he said, "Shu Li Qin and Shu Li Bo left together in a carriage in the afternoon. I heard that there seemed to be a good place, and Shu Li Qin wanted to take Shu Li Bo to see it."

Bo Jinnian was stunned, oh no!

Bo Jinnian knew that Bo Jinxiu must have been held hostage, and they would definitely use Bo Jinxiu to gain advantage.

"One of you runs back and tells my wife that my elder brother left with Qin Feiqing. I'm afraid it's not good. I'll try to find him. If I can't, I'll just prepare for the worst."

Upon hearing this, the scout immediately ran back and reported through the screen in the outer room.

When Shen Yiran heard this, he covered his chest and almost couldn't stand.

Arrogant soldiers will surely be defeated, it really is unpleasant!

Shen Yiran reflected that he was too self-righteous and thought he was in control of the overall situation, but he did not expect that he had neglected to check every detail and made mistakes everywhere. Now, he had completely trapped the Marquis' Mansion!

Bai Zhi anxiously helped Shen Yiran sit down: "Madam, don't be anxious, sit down first and think of a solution..."
