"Mrs. Xu, these people are all people who have come into contact with the purchase..."

Madam Xu threw the sachet on the ground and said, "Take a look at it, you guys, can you recognize your young lady's sachet..."

Several maids hurriedly shook their heads, but a nanny's face changed, but returned to normal in an instant.

"Madam, we don't know..." several maids said hurriedly.

Madam Xu snorted coldly, "Everyone is here, Miss Shen and Madam Shen, please tell us who got this sachet to Miss Shen. As the mistress of the Shen family, it is impossible that you don't know about your own family's affairs..."

Madam Shen calmed down and said, "Madam Xu, there may be some misunderstanding. Let me ask you first. The distribution of the sachets in Madam Xu's house has always been handled by you. Can you tell me how these sachets came from?"

Madam Xu kowtowed several times and said, "Madam, the sachets in the mansion are purchased from shops or pharmacies according to the masters' preferences. Once they are in my hands, they will be directly distributed to the masters. Is there something wrong with this sachet?"

Listening to the group's explanations, Murong Xuan sneered, "Madam Xu, these people won't tell the truth unless they suffer a little, so just hand them over to us..."

This means torture. Madam Shen said quickly, "Madam, you can't do that. Our Shen family has always been loyal to Prince Yan's Mansion. Is Second Young Master Murong trying to force a confession? The matter of the sachet was originally a misunderstanding. Xuanxuan is still young and has no idea what is in it. How could the person who made the sachet think so much..."

"Mrs. Shen, do you mean that we should just forget about this matter? It's a good thing that Xiao didn't stay with you for a long time this time, but Xiao trusts Miss Shen so much and has no defenses. If Miss Shen comes to talk to you like this every day, you would know the consequences, right..." Old Madam Murong said sternly.

Shen Xuanxuan's eyes were somewhat depressed, she kept her head down and did not refute...

Murong Xuan suddenly said in a cold voice, "I believe that Miss Shen will not harm Sister Xiao, but Miss Shen must know who taught you this sachet, right? As long as Miss Shen is willing to tell us, we won't have to go through so much trouble, and these people can be spared from physical pain. Miss Shen has been silent all this time, and she is shielding the murderer like this. Are you worthy of Sister Xiao's trust in you?"

There was something complicated in Shen Xuanxuan's eyes, as if she was thinking about something. After a long time, she finally said in a depressed voice, "It's my fault. It has nothing to do with the other people in the Shen family. I almost hurt Baozi. I'm sorry, Princess. Madam Xu and the Second Young Master can do whatever they want. Please don't hurt other people in the Shen family..."

"Sister Shen, what are you talking about..." Song Le'er said with a frown.

"Xuanxuan! Don't talk nonsense." Mrs. Shen also shouted.

Murong Xuan stared at Madam Shen gloomily before slowly saying, "Miss Shen is determined to offend someone?"

"I didn't offend anyone. I admit that I was the one who hurt the princess. Second Young Master, please release the others. I will let the Prince of Yan's Mansion deal with me..."

"Xuanxuan wants to confess on behalf of someone, but I'm afraid some people won't appreciate it. Cui Hao, Xia Fan, take this Madam Xu and Madam Shen away and interrogate them as they should."

Bai Chuxiao walked in holding Lanxiang's hand, exuding a frosty aura, and gave orders with a cold face.

"Yes!"

After hearing the order, Cui Hao and Xia Fan did not hesitate at all. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Shen Xuanxuan did not do this on purpose. Apart from Madam Shen, who else in the Shen family would have such courage? And Shen Tao could not keep giving face.

"Please have mercy, Princess. This is all Xuanxuan's fault..." Shen Xuanxuan begged hurriedly.

"Princess, are you abusing the punishment? My husband is still out there fighting for the Prince of Yan's Mansion, and the Prince of Yan's Mansion treats us like this? There is no evidence, why are you locking me up..." said the captured Mrs. Shen angrily.

"Mrs. Shen, there is no need to complain to me. Shen Tao is not irreplaceable. For his sake, I have already made concessions again and again. If you keep making noises, I will call Shen Tao back immediately. From now on, you will no longer need the Shen family!"

Bai Chuxiao sneered. Shen Xuanxuan had stayed by her side every day in Yunzhou before, and nothing had happened. This time she brought a sachet with her. Who else could have caught Shen Xuanxuan off guard except for her mother, Madam Shen? They had always been on guard against Madam Shen, so this guy wanted to get close to her through her second daughter, and no one would suspect it...

"You are just a princess. Do you think you can be the master of Prince Yan's Mansion? You can recall the generals as you like. My husband has been with Prince Yan for so long. Even if he has no merits, he has worked hard. Are you going to ignore this meritorious official for your own selfish desires?" Mrs. Shen said with some madness in her eyes.

"Mom, I beg you to stop talking. What are you talking about? Are you really going to kill Dad and the Shen family..." Shen Xuanxuan quickly grabbed her and begged, and then begged, "Please have mercy, Princess. What Mom said just now was nonsense. It has nothing to do with Dad. Dad has no second thoughts about the Prince of Yan's Mansion..."

She knew that there were many capable and battle-hardened generals under the Prince of Yan's Mansion, and they really did not need her father. Apart from her father, their Shen family had no one else to show off. Her father's current status was due to the promotion of Prince Yan. Without the Prince of Yan's Mansion, who would their Shen family care about?

She also knew the princess's character. It was already a honor for the Shen family to bring her and her elder brother to her side to teach them. If her mother continued to talk nonsense like this, the princess would definitely do it, such as recalling her father and not using him anymore. Not to mention other things, everyone in the Murong family could fight, so if his father was away, there would naturally be someone to take his place.

"Well, it seems that Madam Shen has been harboring resentment towards Prince Yan's Mansion for a long time. It will be troublesome to use such a Shen family..." Bai Chuxiao sneered. She was not joking today. Although she did not succeed in not succeeding in hurting her Baozi, she would never let him go.

Although it seems that only Mrs. Shen is resentful at the moment, people's hearts are unpredictable. Once Mrs. Shen is dealt with, another person with resentment may pop up.

"Princess, please don't. Xuanxuan assures me that Dad really has no second thoughts, and neither does anyone else in the Shen family..."

"Xuanxuan, what's the point of begging her? Don't think that she is a good person just because she brought you and your elder brother to the army. What's so selfless about that? Oh, she has long been dissatisfied with the Shen family because of your elder sister. She is bent on finding fault with the Shen family and making room for people from the Murong family..." Mrs. Shen sneered and spoke.

"What nonsense! When did the Murong family need your Shen family to make room for them? The Murong family followed the old Duke Dingguo to fight in all directions decades ago. Most of the land of Daxia is due to the contributions of the Murong family. The Murong family has only been silent over the years, not dead. Even if it has been silent, it has always been guarding the northwest for Daxia. You, a wicked woman, have no right to make comments!"

Mrs. Shen's words really made Madam Murong very angry. This evil woman not only wanted to harm Xiao girl, but also wanted to accuse Xiao girl of being partial to the Murong family.

"Grandma, don't be angry..." Bai Chuxiao quickly comforted the old lady.
