When Shen Liang heard this, he felt as if he was stabbed in the back. He was just over 40, how could he be old already? Was it time for him to retire and return home?

"Excuse me, sir, where did this come from? I am totally confused!"

When the officer heard this, he glared at Shen Liang and said in a colder tone, "If you don't know, go back quickly. Your family must be anxiously waiting for you to come back!"

Shen Liang saw that there was no room for recovery, so he turned around and left. However, he heard the officer behind him say, "Just take the things away. There aren't many anyway, right?"

Shen Liang returned to his seat, reached out to pick up the brush and paperweight, turned around and walked out.

His colleagues seemed to have heard the news and were staring at him quietly, with no one planning to come up and see him off.

Shen Liang never thought that he would end up in this state in his old age. He walked out of the government office, looked at the gloomy sky, and didn't even know how he walked back to his mansion.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Shen Li rushing in in a panic: "Master! Please find a way to save Yan'er! Yan'er has been locked up in prison!"

Shen Liang's face turned black when he heard this. He raised his hand and pushed Shen Li to the ground. "I thought it was Shen Yiran from the Marquis' Mansion who offended Princess Xiping and angered the Queen, which caused me to be dismissed. It turned out to be Shen Yunyan!"

Shen Li lay on the ground crying, "Yan'er must have been framed by Shen Yiran. She was taken away from the Marquis' Mansion. Master, you must seek justice for Yan'er!"

Shen Liang listened and collected his thoughts: "What's going on?"

Shen Li saw that Shen Liang's expression had improved, and immediately got up and said, "I don't know either. Anyway, we'll find out when we go see Yan'er!"

Shen Liang immediately stood up and asked, "What are you waiting for?"

When the man in the prison heard them say their names, he shook his head and refused, saying, "People in the death row want to see you too! Go away!"

Shen Li almost fainted after hearing this. She pulled Shen Liang and was about to cry. Shen Liang carried her into the carriage and said, "Let's go to the Marquis' Mansion!"

Shen Yiran heard the servant's report and knew that he had been waiting for a long time. He immediately said, "Bring him here."

Shen Liang and Shen Li walked in with anger suppressed. When they raised their eyes, they saw the front half of the house was burnt and could not help but stop.

"That's what happened, an accidental discharge?"

Shen Liang's anger subsided a little. He looked at the burnt house and turned to look around.

"Father, stepmother, this is the fire that Shen Yunyan started. He wanted to burn my child to death. Where is your grandson?"

"You mean Yan'er did it? How dare she? Impossible!"

Shen Yiran laughed and looked at Shen Li: "I don't want to believe it either, but the perpetrator was caught red-handed. Besides me, everyone from the Marquis's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion saw it."

Shen Li heard this and knew the seriousness of the matter, but she still complained, "She is your sister after all. You are all fine anyway, so why do you have to send her to death row?"

Shen Yiran knew that his argument would not work, so he informed Xu. Xu saw them coming and heard what Shen Li said. She immediately retorted loudly: "It's okay anyway? What if there is something wrong?"

Shen Li saw Xu coming and didn't take her seriously. After all, the marquis's mansion was divided now, and the eldest lady was not a lady with an imperial title, so she couldn't offend her.

So he immediately retorted: "Look at this house, the fire must have been huge, but no damage was caused. What does this mean? It means that our Yan'er set the fire because he saw no one was around!"

Xu sneered and crossed her arms, cursing, "You are better at solving cases than the officials in the government. There were so many people present last night. Who didn't hear what she said and did? I should have called you earlier. Now there is no need to waste all this time!"

Shen Li was furious. She covered her chest and pointed at Xu and said, "You are all in the same group. Even the people last night, is it possible that you bribed them? My poor son, he was tricked by you!"

Xu laughed loudly when she heard this: "I guess you still don't know what happened last night. Let me tell you, my second daughter was also sent in with your daughter!"

"what happened?"

Shen Liang asked in a deep voice, which clearly sounded like an order, demanding that Shen Yiran explain the facts immediately.

Xu stepped forward to protect Shen Yiran and said coldly: "What a great official power. You should know that it's easy. I can ask a servant to tell you. My wife is frightened and needs to rest."

Shen Yiran obediently sat on the soft chair led by Xu, and said politely: "I think stepmother is not feeling well, do you want to sit down too?"

"I don't want you to be so nice. Tell me, what happened to my daughter?"

Xu called a guard and told him everything that happened last night.

When Shen Liang and Shen Li heard that they really didn't even care about their own granddaughter, how could they care about Shen Yunyan!

"Don't worry, father. I have sent people to deliver food and bedding. Shen Yunyan is in a good mood. She probably thinks that someone will save her..."

This sentence reminded Shen Liang. He gave an order to Shen Li and left.

"go back!"

Shen Li also knew that there was no point in staying here, so she glared at Shen Yiran viciously before leaving.

Shen Yiran immediately stood up and took Xu's hand to thank her: "If it weren't for my sister-in-law being here, I think they would definitely take action this time."

Xu became even angrier when she heard this and pointed and cursed: "This is the Marquis's Mansion, if anyone uses violence, we will send them to the authorities!"

"But did you really send anyone to the prison?"

Shen Yiran nodded: "I saw that my second sister-in-law was disheartened and didn't want to eat or take medicine, so I persuaded her a few words and she promised to take care of Tuantuan, and then she took the medicine."

Mrs. Xu snorted coldly when she heard this: "That Tuantuan has been a mess since she was young. Do you still remember the fight with Yue'er? At that time, that girl used a number to knock the blooming flowers to the ground, and even chased a wild cat!"

Shen Yiran heard this but refused to continue scolding. He pulled Xu and said, "I also really wanted to see Shen Yunyan's reaction. You saw that, didn't you? She was still sneering when I caught her."

Xu didn't pay much attention, and left, pulling Shen Yiran and said, "Then what you just said is true, but who will save her?"

Shen Yiran raised the corner of his lips and smiled: "Of course it's the person she has a handle on."

When Fang Yonghao woke up, he saw the servants waiting at the door for a long time. Seeing that he had woken up, they immediately said, "Sir, the master is calling you!"

Fang Yonghao heard this and kicked the servant over: "Father called me, but you didn't come in to wake me up. Are you deliberately trying to harm me?"

The maid came in immediately to get dressed, and Fang Yonghao did not forget to kick the servant again as he walked out the door.

The servant dodged and cried, "But before, when I woke up the prince, you also said you would beat me to death!"

Fang Yonghao laughed when he heard this, and threw a silver ingot casually: "Here's a reward for you. Look how wronged you are!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Fang Yonghao pulled his clothes and immediately walked into the study, but he didn't expect to see Wang Li standing next to him.
