The daughter of the prime minister died tragically and was reborn to kill people everywhere

Shen Yu's face became even hotter when she was praised for being cute, but she still forced herself to continue asking.

"Cousin, did you insist on marrying him knowing this?"

"Cousin, my love for him has nothing to do with anything else. I just know that I want to marry him and spend my life with him."

"You would be willing even if you won't have children in the future."

Mu Yunyao sneered, "Cousin, mother did give birth to two children for Mu Jinnian, but what was the result?"

Shen Yu looked at her with eyes full of heartache. He wanted to tell her that not all men in this world were Mu Jinnian, but he didn't know how to say it.

That was the way it was in that era; even his Shen family allowed men to have concubines.

Even though his grandfather and father both had concubines, the reason why his aunt agreed to marry Mu Jinnian was because he had promised that there would only be his aunt in this life and no other women?

If this is the case, it seems like it wouldn't be a bad idea for my cousin to marry Xiao Qianmo. At least, with a body like his, my cousin won't have to compete with other women for favor in the future, nor will she have to worry about him having affairs with other women.

Although Shen Yu comforted himself in this way, he still felt uncomfortable in his heart. He couldn't tell what he felt, but he just felt it was not worth it.

Suddenly, he thought of something and quietly approached Mu Yunyao and said.

"Cousin, I have some gossip about Governor Xiao. Do you want to hear it?"

Seeing his mysterious look, it really aroused Mu Yunyao's curiosity.

"What gossip?"

Mu Yunyao asked with a curious expression.

“I heard that Governor Xiao’s mother is an old acquaintance of Your Majesty and once saved Your Majesty’s life.

Governor Xiao did not enter the palace with nothing. His mother died to save Your Majesty. Your Majesty, in gratitude for saving her life, brought him into the palace and gave him to the Queen to raise.

But for some reason, he didn't like being with the prince, and instead was closer to the eunuchs.

In addition, after he came of age, His Majesty handed over the Ministry of Punishment to him, so there were rumors that he was a eunuch. "

"Cousin, do you mean that he is a fake eunuch?"

Mu Yunyao thought it was unlikely. When they were hugging each other yesterday, he was clearly hot all over, but there was still no movement there. This was not what a normal man should have.

Shen Yu hurriedly shook his head when he heard this. Xiao Qianmo could walk freely in the harem. If he was a fake eunuch, he would be guilty of deceiving the emperor and beheaded.

"It may be true that he is not able to function, but according to the gossip I heard, his inability is not caused by purification, but by some strange poison he was poisoned with when he was a child."

Shen Yu looked at Mu Yunyao with burning eyes, and Mu Yunyao suddenly understood what he meant.

What he meant was, as long as they could find the antidote to remove the poison from Xiao Qianmo's body, they still had hope of becoming a normal couple, right?

Mu Yunyao wanted to laugh, but she really didn't know what to say. She knew that the people in the Shen family really wanted to be good to her.

Otherwise, Shen Yu would not have even inquired about such gossip and told it to himself.

Mu Yunyao understood that since Shen Yu could say it in front of her, it was probably true.

Mu Yunyao tapped the tabletop with her knuckles in a rhythmic rhythm, lost in her own thoughts.

If it is really caused by poisoning, then this matter really needs to be taken seriously.

She may not care about his inhumanity, but if the toxins are not cleared and lurk in his body for a long time, it will always have an impact on his health.

She didn't know what kind of poison Xiao Qianmo had been poisoned by. Since the emperor was able to bring him into the palace to be raised by the empress, it was impossible that he had not asked the imperial physician to examine him.

If even the imperial physician is helpless, then there is probably only one medicine in this world that can work.

Mu Yunyao felt extremely regretful when she thought about the things she had given away with her own hands.

"Cousin, I have something to do and I'll leave first. I'll come see you another day."

Shen Yu didn't know why she wanted to leave suddenly, but seeing her serious expression, he didn't try to keep her.

He only said to her, "I will move back to the Shen family's old house in a few days. My father and second uncle will also come to Beijing in the near future. If you have anything that is inconvenient for you to come out, just let someone around you tell me."

When Mu Yunyao heard what he said, she suddenly remembered something.

"Cousin, do you have an expert in tracking down and tracing people?"

Being able to find the location of her adoptive parents in such a short time and find out exactly how she was brought there, the power of the Shen family should not be underestimated.

When Shen Yu heard this, he knew that she needed his help with something, so he quickly promised.

"As long as it is within the territory of Da Qi and outside the capital, the Shen family's intelligence network is not much worse than Qianxue Tower."

Mu Yunyao felt relieved after hearing him say that.

She motioned for him to come closer and whispered.

"There is a village about thirty miles east of the capital. The village is backed by a mountain and there are many orphans and young children in it. Please help me check that village."

Shen Yu's face became a little serious when he heard this, and he thought for a while before asking.

"You mean that the village is mostly populated by orphans and young children?"

Such villages are not uncommon at the border because of wars.

But if it was at the feet of the emperor, so close to the capital, that would be too strange.

Even if the imperial court wanted to conscript men, they would not just conscript a whole village. If there is no major war on the border now, the situation is stable. However, in wartime, only one man will be conscripted from each household. If there is only one man in the family, no one will be conscripted.

In her situation, how could there be a village full of widows and orphans and children?

"Okay, I'll take note of what you said. I'll personally take someone there later."

Hearing this, Mu Yunyao hurriedly stopped him.

"Cousin, you can't go. I once passed by their village and asked for a bowl of water from the villagers. I found that there were many white crystals in the village, some of which looked like the saltpeter used by Taoists to make elixirs.

If it really is that thing, I'm afraid the things involved behind it cannot be too small, and the people behind it are not just you and me, and there is no one the Shen family can contend with.

We can just have someone investigate quietly. As long as we confirm whether it is that thing, I will take care of the rest."

She had originally planned to pay Qianxue Tower to investigate the matter, but after thinking it over she decided to give up.

Qianxue Tower is a gang organization after all. If that thing is really saltpeter, she can't guarantee that they won't have other evil intentions.

In her previous life, she had seen the power of gunpowder. A piece of gunpowder as big as a rattan ball could blow down a city tower. If this thing fell into the hands of someone with bad intentions, it would definitely cause devastation.

Shen Yu had never seen that thing before, and didn't know why she was so worried.

But he absolutely believed in Mu Yunyao, so he agreed without thinking.

"Okay, I'll listen to my cousin."

Mu Yunyao heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that he agreed, and said goodbye to Shen Yu and left.

Shen Yu sent her out the door and watched her get on the carriage. He then went back to the house and called the Shen family's secret guards to tell them what Mu Yunyao had asked him to investigate.

He also specifically instructed the people below.

"If you can't do it, withdraw and don't reveal your identity."

After Mu Yunyao left Shen Yu, she did not go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion directly, but went to Changxingfang under the pretext of buying clothes.
