Spring in the East Palace

Shen Muyin frowned. It was the first time she saw Butler Wang so flustered. She was silent. So, was this directed at her?

But on the surface, Shen Muyin could not see any clues, but remained calm: "Why is Steward Wang so panicked?"

"Miss, someone is coming from the East Palace." Butler Wang took some effort to calm his breath.

East Palace? What is that madman going to do?

Shen Muyin frowned, unable to guess what Qin Chuyan was going to do.

It was as if after she came back from Xiangshan Villa, the East Palace disappeared without a trace, as if the two of them had no connection at all.

After all, this person said that he would only allow her to marry into the Eastern Palace if the enclosure satisfied him.

So what is the purpose of this person sending someone to the Shen Mansion today?

You can't suddenly get the urge to feed yourself to wolves, snakes, and vultures, right?

"I'll go right away." Shen Muyin suppressed his emotions and responded calmly.

Butler Wang didn't say anything and took Shen Muyin to the front hall.

Because the Eastern Palace had arrived, everyone in the Shen residence naturally had to come out to greet them, including Concubine Liu, who had just been beaten with a stick and came out with the support of Shaoyao.

Only the disfigured Shen Zhenzhen was stopped in Nanyuan.

The East Palace said, "I don't know what disease Miss Shen has, so she doesn't need to come out. Otherwise, if the East Palace is infected, His Highness will be furious and the loss will outweigh the gain."

This clearly shows that Shen Zhenzhen is not given any face at all.

The person who said this was none other than Magu, a female official in the Eastern Palace.

This is the most trusted person around Donggong, so the fact that Magu can come forward in person means that Donggong attaches great importance to Shen Muyin.

This made the Shen family look at each other in bewilderment.

"Aunt has come here specially. I wonder if His Highness has any important instructions?" Shen Changsheng took the initiative to step forward and asked Magu respectfully.

Magu walked past Shen Changsheng and saw Shen Muyin walking towards her.

"I pay my respects to Miss Shen." Magu greeted Shen Muyin with a smile on her face.

This action made Shen Changsheng and others change their expressions.

You know, although Magu was just a female official in the Eastern Palace, she was also considered a servant.

But even the important officials in the court had to show some courtesy when they saw Magu. Even in front of the emperor, Magu was exempted from courtesy.

But now Magu has paid her respects to Shen Muyin. What does this mean?

The people in the Shen residence looked at each other, no one dared to say a word, and everyone had their own thoughts in their eyes.

"Why did Aunt come here in person? Please get up quickly. Mu Yin doesn't deserve it." Shen Mu Yin walked forward and supported Magu.

Magu didn't refuse, but she kept looking at Shen Muyin with a smile: "Miss Shen was injured when she left the other courtyard before, and Your Highness has always remembered it, so you specially sent me to bring medicine to Miss."

Donggong is so kind all of a sudden? Shen Muyin's heart skipped a beat, a feeling of uneasiness.

Besides, weren’t all the injuries on her body caused by that madman in the East Palace?

The physical injury is not a big deal; it’s the psychological trauma that’s too heavy.

As a result, in the past few days since returning from the East Palace, Shen Muyin would dream of groups of snakes entangled around her at night. She was lucky that she was not scared to death.

"This is an ointment that promotes blood circulation, removes blood stasis and removes scars. It guarantees that your skin will be the same as it was originally, without any marks." Magu continued with a smile on her face.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince thanks you for your grace." Shen Muyin bowed and took the ointment given by Magu.

She knew without even looking that everything the Eastern Palace could give out was definitely good stuff.

Because of Qin Chuyan's temper, he probably wouldn't even bother with bad things.

Magu nodded. Only then did Shen Muyin notice that there were a few people standing behind Magu. They did not look like servants, but were wearing the clothes of palace maids and guards.

This made Shen Muyin raise his eyebrows slightly, and he couldn't help but speculate in his heart.

Before leaving the East Palace that day, Shen Muyin begged the man to give it to him, but the man ignored him.

So who are these people?

If Magu just wanted to deliver the medicine, she only needed to bring a secret guard and a coachman, and there was no need to bring so many people down the mountain.

"Aunt, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really has feelings for our Mu Yin." Concubine Liu flattered Magu and took the initiative to please her.

Magu looked a little cold when she looked at Concubine Liu: "That's natural. After all, Miss Shen is someone that His Highness cares about. We can't let anything go wrong, even if we can't explain it to His Highness."

Concubine Liu's expression changed slightly.

She wanted to please Magu, but unexpectedly she was warned by Magu.

Between the lines, Magu was telling the people in the Shen residence that even if something happened in the Shen residence, Shen Muyin could not have any accidents.

Otherwise, no one can escape the blame from the Eastern Palace.

Shen Muyin naturally heard it as well. She raised her eyebrows slightly and remained calm.

It's not that the Eastern Palace doesn't allow people to marry into a high-ranking family, but now this person has taken the initiative to come to the door.

But Shen Muyin knew better that there was no such thing as pie in the sky, not to mention that it was a pie from the East Palace, which was probably more terrifying than eating arsenic.

Magu's eyes turned towards Shen Muyin's direction again, but only for a moment, then she looked at Shen Changsheng.

No matter what, the prefect of Beijing is still Shen Changsheng. Anyone who wants to enter the Shen Mansion must naturally pass Shen Changsheng's test.

Shen Changsheng was nervous when Magu looked at him: "Aunt...Aunt, just tell me if you have anything to say."

Magu nodded, her attitude becoming much more indifferent: "Before, Miss Shen accidentally entered Xiangshan Villa because of a wolf pack, but the maid Chunxiang abandoned her master and ran away. Your Highness has always been concerned about this matter. Your Highness is kind-hearted and feels that it is really distressing that Miss Shen does not even have a reliable servant by her side."

Shen Muyin listened calmly.

Listen to what Magu said.

Kind-hearted, distressed——

No matter which word it was, in Shen Muyin's opinion, it had nothing to do with the madman in the East Palace.

When the people of the Shen family heard what Magu said, they were all in disbelief and were really angry but dared not say anything.

Magu didn't mind at all and continued to finish her words: "So His Highness specially found a few people to send it to Miss Shen. I wonder what Lord Shen thinks?"

Magu threw the question in front of Shen Changsheng. What could Shen Changsheng say?

Denying Magu would mean denying the Eastern Palace, which would be tantamount to sending one's head to the guillotine, wouldn't it?

The most taboo thing in the Eastern Palace is resistance. If you say no, the Eastern Palace will have thousands of ways to make you suffer.

The last time the East Palace was in court, a first-rank military officer rejected the East Palace's proposal to let the troops rest and recuperate first. The East Palace didn't say anything on the surface, but he didn't make a big fuss in the court.

But he sneered, and Lu Huainan pointed his sword at the military officer. Although he didn't kill him, it was enough to give him a warning.

Later, all three generations of this man were thoroughly exposed, and even the snuff bottle that he had collected from a ninth-rank official was discovered in the East Palace.

In the end, Qingming was completely ruined in this life. Not only did he lose his official hat, but he also became a target of public condemnation.
