After giving up being the wife of a powerful official, Ling Yunlu became a concubine

Qin wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and said, "You'll know what happened when Xiaofeng comes back."

There was no way out, the sisters-in-law and Mrs. Shen's sisters-in-law had to sit down and wait anxiously for Xiaofeng to come back.

Fortunately, Xiaofeng came back in less than a cup of tea.

"Grandma, I gave her a lot of silver before I could find out the situation."

"It is said that there is a problem with the cloth that our Qin family presented to Lady Lin."

"Lady Lin asked the needlework bureau to rush the cloth to make clothes for her to wear on her birthday."

"As a result, after she put it on, she developed rashes all over her body, and the imperial physician diagnosed it as smallpox."

When the people in the room heard this, they were dumbfounded.

"The people in the Needlework Bureau have also come into contact with cloth. How can you say that it is the Qin family's fault?"

Mrs. Shen felt something was wrong.

"The clothing makers who came into contact with the cloth also contracted the smallpox."

"But our cloth has been delivered to the palace and has passed through the hands of more than one person. Why are you only pointing fingers at the Qin family?"

"My nephew also specifically asked about it, and he said that everyone who came into contact with it was infected."

"Right now, all the evidence points to the Qin family."

"God is going to destroy my Qin family!" A sister-in-law burst into tears.

Others began to wail as well.

This time, all the adult men in the Qin family were arrested.

Except for Qin Xiaofeng in front of him.

Those who used to look down on Qin Xiaofeng are now very envious of him.

No matter how much money you have, it is not as important as the lives of your loved ones.

Qin also cried for a while, holding Mrs. Shen's hand.

"Son, go ask your son-in-law, or your grandson-in-law, to see if they can think of a way to get the person out first."

The other people also gathered around.

"Sister, you must save your brother's life. Your nephews and nieces are still young and can't leave their father."

The person who spoke was Mrs. Shen’s second sister-in-law.

"Yes, niece, your third uncle watched you grow up. When you were little, he often bought you flowers to wear."

The person who spoke was Mrs. Shen's third aunt.

Mrs. Shen nodded in a daze and took the carriage back to the Shen Mansion.

"Is the master back?"

Mrs. Shen asked as soon as she got off the carriage.

"Yes, the master is in the study."

Mrs. Shen hurried to the study to find Mr. Shen and told him what had happened.

Father Shen thought for a long time, "Did the Qin family offend anyone recently?"

Mrs. Shen looked embarrassed, "When doing business, there will inevitably be friction."

"Master, can you think of a solution? Mother said that as long as we can get someone out, the Qin family will pay any amount of money."

"I'll go and ask around first."

Mr. Shen went out, and Mrs. Shen paced around the room anxiously.

In the evening, Shen's father came back with a serious look on his face.

"This matter will be tried by the Crown Prince himself. No one else is allowed to interfere. Otherwise, they will lose their official hats."

"Master, what should we do?" Mrs. Shen was at a loss.

If her father had passed away, her mother would definitely not have survived.

There are also several sisters-in-law and nephews!

Father Shen was also having a headache, because the Qin family was his father-in-law's family, and he couldn't just sit back and watch.

If his father-in-law's family was accused of framing concubines in the harem, his official career would be over.

Although, he guessed that it might be a competitor of the Qin family who took the opportunity to frame the Qin family.

However, how great was the hatred that he had, he wanted to kill all the members of the Qin family.

Moreover, the prince was personally responsible for such a small matter and did not allow anyone to intercede.

This so-called "anyone" is obviously him and the King of Qi.

Is it possible that the spearhead was originally directed at the King of Qi?

"Don't worry about this matter. I will try to discuss it with the King of Qi."

"Change your clothes and come with me to Prince Qi's mansion."

Mrs. Shen hurriedly went in to change her clothes and followed Father Shen into the carriage.

"Master, what should I say later?"

"You can say you are here to visit Jin'er. Go and talk to Jin'er while I go find the prince."

Mrs. Shen looked extremely unhappy.

She never thought that one day she would need to become Shen Yunjin's disciple.

Father Shen glanced at her and said, "Think about your father and brother. If you don't want to, we can go back now."

Mrs. Shen hurriedly forced a smile.

"Go, I will go."

Shen Yunjin was very surprised when she heard the announcement that Mrs. Shen and Father Shen were coming to visit her.

She went out with her bulging belly.

Father Shen looked at Shen Yunjin, his face was rosy and his expression was calm. It seemed that King Qi was very fond of Shen Yunjin.

"I will go play a few games of chess with the prince, and you two can have a private conversation."

After saying that, Father Shen turned around and followed Fulu.

Mrs. Shen looked at Shen Yunjin with a sour mood.

This concubine's daughter now has a different aura, which shows that she is a favored one in the Prince Qi's Mansion.

This should have belonged to her daughter Shen Yunchu.

"Jinzhi, please ask mother to go inside and sit down." Shen Yunjin held Yang Liu's hand and walked into the house first.

Mrs. Shen looked around the furnishings in the palace, feeling mixed emotions.

Shen Yunjin ordered someone to serve tea, and she drank it in small sips without saying a word.

She guessed that Mrs. Shen must have something to ask her.

But what would cause Mr. Shen to come forward himself?

Could it be that something happened to Shen Yunchu?

Or did something happen to the Shen family and they wanted help from King Qi?

Neither is right. If it was the Shen family, there would be no need for Mrs. Shen to come here.

Unless something happened to Mrs. Shen’s family.

But no matter what it was, Shen Yunjin didn't intend to ask.

Now is a special period, and Xiao Minshen specifically told her earlier to try not to go out.

She made up her mind not to say anything.

Mrs. Shen looked at the valuable ornaments placed everywhere in the house and felt secretly regretful.

If she had known this earlier, she would have married her daughter to the palace even if she had to.

In this case, why would she need to beg Shen Yunjin in a humble manner?

She originally wanted to take Qiao away, and wait for Shen Yunjin to ask her about the matter, and then she would tell him the whole story and order him to solve the problem.

But now, Shen Yunjin just drank tea without asking any questions, and she was a little panicked.

"Jin'er, your belly looks like a son."

She tried to find words to say in a dry voice.

"The prince wants a daughter."

"Mother must have made a mistake. You look rosy, so you must be a daughter."

Mrs. Shen habitually put on a stern face in front of Shen Yunjin, but she felt something was wrong, so she bent the corners of her lips upwards, trying to force a smile.

Shen Yunjin saw that Mrs. Shen's face was distorted and her muscles were twitching.

She was certain that something must have happened in Mrs. Shen's family.

Yang Liu, whom she had just sent out to inquire, stood beside Shen Yunjin.

She leaned close to Shen Yunjin's ear and whispered a few words.

After hearing this, Shen Yunjin's face darkened.

Mrs. Shen, who was standing by, couldn't help but feel nervous.

Shen Yunjin's current look is similar to the look on King Qi's face when he first returned home and was angry!
