Reborn, seduced the prince and killed his wife to become his favorite concubine

"Your Highness, Huang Gui is now in the hands of Lord Shen. He has always been impartial and selfless in enforcing the law, and his methods of handling cases are extremely high. Perhaps in a few days, Huang Gui will reveal the mastermind behind the scenes."

Chu Er was still thinking about official business, but he was completely unaware that his master was already traveling somewhere else.

"Go and find out what kind of drug they planted, and what the background of the woman on my ship last night was."

His intuition told him that this drug was probably not a coincidence.

The young lady of the Shen family is probably innocent.

But Chu Er's face was full of question marks when he heard it.

Why should we investigate such cheap drugs? Shouldn't we focus on the Huang family and get to the bottom of the illegal salt trafficking case as soon as possible?

"Yes."

But Chu Er didn't dare to question his master's orders.

Yan Chu thought about it for a long time. Even if she was not the one who drugged the girl, she must have other purposes for appearing on the moon ship dressed like that.

Since her father had found out about Huang Gui, maybe she was probably going there for Huang Gui, and the mastermind behind Huang Gui was King Shuo.

Shen Zhishu, could he be related to King Shuo?

He had only seen her face once, but it was clearly engraved in his mind. He didn't even need to think about it deliberately, his mind was full of her.

Yan Chu felt a little disgusted with this feeling.

He likes a bright and thoughtful girl like Su Rong, definitely not someone like Shen Zhishu.

This went on for several days.

Shen Zhishu's injuries finally got better. At least after he put on his clothes, there was no trace of the injuries. The lighter marks disappeared, but there were bruises all over his waist and back.

But she couldn't just lie down and live her life.

There are less than twenty-five days left before Su Rong returns to Beijing, which is too tight for her.

Besides, I haven't left the hospital for three consecutive days, and my family is very worried.

Even her father, who was busy with official duties, came to see her and insisted on seeing her. She had no choice but to come out since she had no choice but to do so.

At the door, father Shen Wang looked over with worried eyes.

"But are you sick? Why are you so thin?"

After not going out for three days, she became a little paler, but she was definitely not thinner because she had a good appetite and ate a lot.

It's just that her old father was really worried about her and felt that she was not feeling well.

"I eat two bowls of rice for every meal, how can I be thin? It's just that the sun is too strong these past two days and Shu'er doesn't want to go out. Father, don't worry too much."

She walked out of the room and held her father affectionately.

She felt sad when she thought about the suffering her family had suffered in her previous life for no reason because of her face.

Her father was exiled to the frontier, but less than half a year later, news of his death came back. Shen Zhishu suddenly lost her father who loved her the most, and she cried bitterly.

She never wanted to suffer the sins of her previous life again.

"How can you not go out? You need to go out more often to stretch your muscles and bones so that your body can be strong. Your father has been busy with a case these two days and has neglected you. Your mother has taken your brother and sister-in-law to visit relatives and will be back in a few days..."

Who would have thought that Lord Shen, who is serious and decisive in public, is just a nagging old man in front of his daughter?

Shen Zhishu responded to all of them.

The two of them walked around the garden together. Shen Wang was afraid that his daughter would be lazy, so he insisted on taking her for a walk.

"Father, Bi Tao heard from people outside that there has been some progress in the case of the illegal gun factory. Is it true?"

We have almost finished chatting about daily life, it’s time to get down to business.

My father in the previous life was determined to be a loyal minister, but the court was complicated and the current emperor was seriously ill, so he was unable to do many things. The princes used endless means to fight for the throne.

If my father doesn't rely on anyone, then no one will protect him when something happens.

Shen Zhishu knew who the future emperor would be, and she would never let her father stand on the wrong side, nor would she let the tragedy happen again.

"That's right. The mastermind behind the private gun shop is none other than the young master of the Huang's Rice Shop in Kyoto. I have already imprisoned him in the Dali Temple prison."

Speaking of this, Shen Wang's expression became obviously serious.

Huang Youjin, the old boss of Huang's Rice Shop, was the seventy-year-old man she married in her previous life, and Huang Gui was Huang Youjin's youngest son, and he is also the young boss of Huang's Rice Shop today.

The Shen family was convicted, their members were exiled, and their house was ransacked.

At that time, Huang Youjin appeared and offered her five thousand taels of silver as long as she was willing to marry him, to ensure her father's safe arrival at the border and to settle him down.

But on the night she entered the marriage chamber, on her wedding night, Huang Youjin admitted that it was all a scam.

Not to mention the five thousand taels of silver, even the five hundred taels of silver that Shen Zhishu had hidden away and the proceeds from pawning all his silk and jewelry were intercepted by Huang Youjin, and not a single tael was delivered to his father.

Both the Huang family father and son are equally vicious and lustful.

The old man was too old to have sex, but he tortured her every night, making her miserable. On the night of the old man's death, Huang Gui took away her innocence in front of the mourning hall...

The past is like a nightmare, lingering in my mind.

In this life, she must avenge herself by getting rid of this shameless father and son and destroying the Huang family.

"How could a mere rice shop owner run a private gun shop for five years under the nose of the government? And this was in Kyoto."

Shen Zhishu exclaimed in false surprise.

Because she knew that the biggest master behind Huang Gui was the current second prince, King Shuo, who was the biggest obstacle for King Qin to ascend the throne and also his strongest enemy.

What a coincidence, these two people who were so at odds with each other actually loved the same woman.

In my previous life, I was tortured like a pig and a dog by the Huang family. Wasn't it because of His Royal Highness Prince Shuo who did this to please Su Rong?

"Of course, there are powerful people behind this supporting you."

"Father, can you find out who it is?"

Shen Zhishu seemed surprised and curious.

But considering Huang Gui's cowardly character of being afraid of death and pain, how could he possibly withstand his father's torture?

I'm afraid he has confessed a long time ago.

But it’s a problem for my father to report it.

Although he was only doing it to investigate the case and get to the bottom of the truth, the princes were fighting among themselves, and no one would think that my father was a good minister who was serious about handling the case. They would only think that he had become an enemy of King Shuo.

Given King Shuo's vengeful character, how could he let the Shen family go?

"Shu'er, your father has always been fair and honest, and has always upheld the path of justice. I thought that as long as I had no regrets and did not let the people down, I could be an official at ease. But now...if my job harms our family, do you think your father should still insist on it?"

Shen Wang looked into the distance with a confused look on his face, as if questioning his own persistence.

The reason why he said all this to Shu'er was just to spit. She usually never went out of the house, so how could she know the situation outside?

"Father, is the mastermind behind this someone from the royal family?"

But his daughter's guess shocked him.

How did she know?

"It seems that the guess was correct. Then my daughter, guess again. This prince must be very favored and powerful in the court, right? Could it be His Royal Highness Prince Shuo?"

Now, Shen Wang’s eyelids were twitching non-stop.

No, you can guess this just by guessing?
