Mu Chenye looked at the letter in Shen Tangan's hand and frowned slightly.

He took the letter and read it carefully. The content of the letter made his face more solemn.

"This matter is of no small importance, An'er, don't panic."

Mu Chenye held Shen Tangan's hand and gave her strength.

Shen Tangan frowned when he heard that, noting that he looked serious.

"Your Highness, the matter in the letter concerns the fate of Zhongjin and the court. I don't know why it was sent to me, but I can't handle it and can only hand it over to Your Highness."

She suspected that this was also the purpose of the person who sent the letter. Perhaps the Prince Chen's Mansion was difficult to approach so the letter was sent to her.

But she was also afraid that this might be a trap and would harm the prince.

"Your Majesty, you must be careful when investigating. What if it is a trap..."

Mu Chenye nodded slightly and looked at Shen Tangan with deep eyes.

"Don't worry, An'er. I will handle it carefully. Although this matter is difficult, I will definitely not let you fall into danger."

He carefully put the letter away, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "This matter needs to be considered carefully. First, send someone to secretly investigate the source of the letter to see if we can find some clues."

Shen Tangan looked at him worriedly, "My Lord, if this is really a trap, what should we do?"

Mu Chenye patted her hand gently, "Don't be afraid, An'er. I have been in the court for many years and have experienced many ups and downs. I will not be easily calculated by others. Moreover, I have many secret guards around me, and I will definitely be able to resolve this crisis."

Shen Tang looked at him calmly and could only nod helplessly. This letter was related to Zhongjin, so he had to go and verify it regardless of whether it was true or false.

She knew that Mu Chenye possessed extraordinary wisdom and courage, and would definitely be able to find out whether the things in the letter were true or false, and would also be able to crush certain people's conspiracies.

After Mu Chenye ordered his men to send Shen Tangan away, he immediately gave orders.

On the one hand, he strengthened the security of Prince Chen's Mansion to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the opportunity to launch a sneak attack; on the other hand, he sent out his most capable secret guards to investigate the matter in person.

The letter not only mentioned some court officials, but also mentioned the spies from Western Chu. If the spies were not caught, the court of Central Jin would be unstable.

Even if Shen Tangan was worried, she shouldn't interfere too much, as this matter was not something she could control.

He returned to the Marquis' Mansion with a heavy heart, but unexpectedly saw Shen Qingwan in his own courtyard. His face immediately darkened.

"what are you doing here?"

"Sister, don't you welcome me?"

Shen Qingwan looked at her with a smile and nodded as a greeting.

"Aren't you afraid of your belly?"

Shen Tangan was in a bad mood and didn't bother to argue with her. He glanced at her belly meaningfully.

Wasn’t it enough that you embarrassed yourself at your grandfather’s birthday party two days ago?

"Sister, I came to see you because I'm not feeling well. You know I'm pregnant with the emperor's heir. If something goes wrong, it will be hard to explain to His Majesty and the Queen."

Shen Qingwan said this and gently stroked her belly.

She has always been frail, but now when she sits down, you can slightly see her belly, which shows that the baby is getting bigger and bigger.

"You are pregnant before marriage. Once this matter is known to outsiders, His Majesty and the Queen will not be able to protect you."

Shen Tangan glanced at her coldly and waved at her. "Wrist."

Shen Qingwan was choked by her words. She was still angry, but seeing her like this, she could only reluctantly move her hand away.

Shen Tangan placed his slender fingers lightly on Shen Qingwan's wrist, feeling the beating of her pulse.

She closed her eyes slightly, her expression focused and serious. After a while, she let go of my hand and said calmly, "The fetus is fine, you don't have to be too nervous, and you don't have to come to me every few days. Go back and take good care of yourself, and don't let your mind wander."

Shen Qingwan withdrew her hand, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes.

"Sister, do you hate me so much?"

Shen Tangan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Shen Qingwan.

"People with different ideals cannot work together. You used all means to gain wealth and fame, and even seduced the prince into having a baby when we were still engaged. And now you ask me such a stupid question?"

Shen Qingwan bit her lip, a trace of grievance showing on her face.

"Sister, I have no choice. The prince loves me deeply, how can I live up to his sincerity?"

Shen Tangan sneered, "You can't help yourself? You are used to saying some high-sounding nonsense."

She only cares about herself. For the sake of power and status, she betrayed the Marquis's Mansion, seduced her sister's fiancé, and even kidnapped her with the excuse of mutual love. It's ridiculous!

At this point, why should I pretend to be innocent in front of her?

Shen Qingwan's face turned pale, and a hint of viciousness flashed in his eyes.

"Sister, you were born with everything, so naturally you don't understand me. You took away everything from me, and I just took the prince away, and you can't stand it? I won this round, and you will always be defeated by me."

"Humph, I never cared about the prince, you just think you have defeated me."

Shen Tangan sneered. Even if she bet everything, she could only get the position of a concubine. How could that be considered a win?

"It's just the beginning now, and we can't tell what will happen in the future!"

Shen Qingwan didn't listen to her at all and was immersed in her own world.

After saying that, he turned and left.

Shen Tangan looked at her back and found it ridiculous. How could such a person be worth her efforts?

At this moment, Shen Tangan thought of Mu Chenye and the mysterious letter again.

She didn't know how Mu Chenye's investigation was progressing, and her heart was filled with worry, fearing that he might be in danger.

On the other side, the secret guards quickly found clues to the source of the letter.

They followed the clues and found that the letter seemed to be related to a mysterious organization.

This organization is extremely hidden and its purpose is unclear, but their actions reveal the threat to Zhongjin at every turn.

After hearing the news, Mu Chenye fell into deep thought.

He knew that this mysterious organization was by no means an ordinary one, and it would take more time and energy to thoroughly investigate their background.

But he also understood that time was running out and he could not delay any longer. He had to take action as soon as possible to protect Zhongjin's safety.

Therefore, Mu Chenye decided to take action himself and lead the secret guards to conduct an in-depth investigation of this mysterious organization.

Time was running out, and when he left he only had time to leave a letter for Shen Tangan and asked the servants to deliver it to the Marquis' Mansion.

Shen Tangan was anxiously waiting for news from Mu Chenye in the Marquis' Mansion, and the worry in his heart continued to spread like a vine.

Just then, the servant brought a letter from Mu Chenye.

She couldn't wait to open the letter, and saw that it said: "An'er, don't worry. I am fully investigating the mysterious organization and will ensure the peace of Zhongjin. When I return after the matter is completed, I will enjoy the prosperity with you."

Shen Tangan looked at the letter and felt a little comforted.

She knew that Mu Chenye always kept his word, and since he had promised so, he would definitely do it.

However, she still couldn't completely let go and was always concerned about Mu Chenye's safety.

At the same time, Mu Chenye and the secret guards encountered many difficulties in the process of investigating the mysterious organization.

They found that the members of this mysterious organization were secretive and difficult to track.

Moreover, this organization seems to have a strict organizational structure and action plan, which makes it elusive.
