Ye Qinglan never dreamed that there were secrets in the General's Mansion!

Hidden behind the hanging flower gate!

She had never been to that place in her previous life. But she had lived in the General's Mansion for half her life, so she noticed something unusual today.

Rui Er said that there was a dead cat inside, and Princess Jia He was so scared that she fell to the ground. Shen Rong also said that this was the situation inside.

The cat's death must have been very scary.

But she clearly remembered that there were no cats in the general's mansion!

No one, from the master to the servant, was allowed to keep a cat. They were not even allowed to mention it.

Today the general not only has a cat, but it is also a cat that died tragically.

Who did it?

Why did you choose this critical moment when a distinguished guest comes to visit to do this?

Could it be...

Deliberately intimidating Princess Jiahe so that she would not dare to marry Shen Rong?

Is it Ye Qinghuan? Or Shen Lin?

Ye Qinglan thought about it and decided that the biggest beneficiaries of today's events were Shen Lin and Ye Qinghuan.

If Jiahe County Lady married, Ye Qinghuan, the head of the household, would have to step down a level and serve her carefully. The power of the housekeeper would also be meaningless.

She wanted to keep the power in her hands, so of course she had to stop Princess Jiahe from marrying into her family.

As for Shen Lin, he used to indulge Shen Rong. Who doesn't know that the brothers in the Shen family are friendly and respectful to each other?

Occasionally, there would be disagreements among the brothers, but it would only happen at home and they would never do anything out of line.

So, it can only be Ye Qinghuan.

Oh, Ye Qinghuan is going to be in trouble this time!

There are hundreds of people in the general's mansion, and someone will always see her catching the cat.

Old Madam Shen could easily find the cause by simply checking.

By then, she would be charged with intentional intimidation of the county lady and causing a quarrel between brothers, and any of the charges would be something she could not bear!

After walking away arrogantly from the General's Mansion, do you really think you are invincible?

Ye Qinghuan, just wait!

Not long after, the carriage arrived at the marquis's mansion.

Seeing Ye Qinglan's eyes sparkling, Mu Qing knew that she had bad intentions, so she warned her, "Don't tell anyone about what happened in the General's Mansion today."

"Don't worry, madam. I understand." Ye Qinglan smiled secretly in her heart.

Need I tell you? I'm afraid the princess has already gone to the general's mansion.

Mu Qing was also worried about this.

But after all, she is not the head of the family and cannot participate in advance.

Can only wait.

When the princess starts to blame Ye Qinghuan, he will come forward to testify.

After returning to Baoyuexuan, Mu Qing asked Jiang Rui: "Rui'er, what did you see?"

"Mom, there's a kitten hanging on a tree. It looks weird."

Jiang Rui was still young and couldn't describe it, so he used his hands and feet to gesture a posture of lying on all fours.

"It's still bleeding. It must have an injury to its neck..."

Mu Qing was frightened by the twisted posture and her face turned pale.

This is obviously man-made!

Who is so perverted to make the kitten so miserable?

"Mom, I just took a look, and when my sister called me, I quickly took her out. I was afraid of scaring her," said Jiang Rui.

Mu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and hugged Jiang Rui tightly: "Sister didn't see it, right?"

"Ah."

"What about you? Are you scared?"

"kind of."

Jiang Rui nodded. "However, Princess Jiahe was the first to see it, and she was scared. She is so timid."

Mu Qing thought, you are too young to understand. Otherwise, you would be scared and cry.

"Who was there at the time?"

"We were playing hide-and-seek, and I followed Princess Jiahe into the Chuihua Gate. Only the Third Master Shen was inside at the time."

"No one else?"

"No."

"What is Third Master Shen doing?"

"He was sitting in a tree watching the cats. He turned around only when Lady Jiahe called him. Then he fell off his wheelchair."

Mu Qing roughly understood: someone deliberately abused the cat to intimidate Princess Jiahe in order to ruin the marriage.

But how could Shen Rongruo remain indifferent when he saw the kitten dying tragically on the tree?

unless……

Mu Qing shivered with fear.

"mother?"

"It's okay, just don't scare you and your sister. Go have fun! It's a gift from my aunt, so be careful with it."

"understood."

The ignorant Rui'er has been well educated by Mu Qing since childhood and is very emotionally stable.

He didn't know how horrible the thing that happened today was, so he took out the gift Ye Qinghuan had given him and played with it again.

"Madam, please take a rest! You have just gotten better, don't hurt yourself again." The wet nurse, Madam Chang, handed over a hot water bottle and hot water.

Mu Qing sighed, "I didn't expect the General's Mansion to be so complicated."

"It's hard for Madam Shen to stand firm there alone." Nanny Chang also sighed, "Madam Shen only has the Third Young Master in her heart and eyes. Her attitude towards the general and the lady is really bad."

"Yes! If it was Ye Qinglan who married him..." Mu Qing imagined it for a moment, then quickly shook her head, "She has a low character and is only fit to be a concubine in our family."

"I think that if Madam Shen marries here, she can become a sister to Madam Shen. She will also have an assistant who understands her feelings." Nanny Chang said.

Mu Qing smiled: "Please don't mention this, it's not good for others to hear it."

"Yes."

"Go find the jade beads that Concubine Rou gave me and send them to the Princess's residence. That is, to comfort Princess Jiahe who was frightened."

"Yes."

In this way, the princess knew that she was also present today. She also acknowledged Ye Qinghuan as her godsister and would not be too impulsive.

----

At the General's Mansion, after Shen Lin carried Ye Qinghuan back home, he stayed by her side to coax her.

"It's okay, it's all over."

"I promise that this won't happen again in the mansion."

"..."

He was the one who should have collapsed the most, but he was the calmest and most composed.

Ye Qinghuan slowly recovered in his arms and said, "General, are you okay?"

Shen Lin was stunned, and then he realized that he was not affected at all!

He used to hate cats!

"General, if you have anything to say...let it out! It's just the two of us here, no one will see us."

Ye Qinghuan had been comforted, and it was her turn to comfort him.

She was ready.

As a result, Shen Lin said: "I don't seem to mind."

"!!!"

Ye Qinghuan was stunned.

Shen Lin stroked her fingers, slowly lowered his head, and a smile appeared on his lips: "At that time, I was only thinking about you, and didn't care about anything else."

In an instant, Ye Qinghuan's heart was beating like a drum, and his fingertips burned her mouth and made her dry.

"It's a good thing that I told you what happened that night. Otherwise, you would have been scared to death today, right?" Shen Lin said softly and calmly, as if he was telling someone else's story.

Ye Qinghuan did not say that he had already investigated the matter, and he also expected that Su Jinxiu would expose Shen Rong's tyrannical weakness.

I raised my head slightly to look at him, and happened to meet his eyes.

Their eyes met like sparks, burning people's hearts. She quickly lowered her head again, nervously wanting to pull her hand back: "Hmm..."

Shen Lin increased his strength and held her hand tightly.

"General, this matter may anger the princess. You should go to Fushouyuan to have a look! And Sister Su, I am worried..."

Ye Qinghuan and Shen Lin both knew in their hearts that this was Su Jinxiu's masterpiece.

If Shen Rong or the old lady knew about this, Su Jinxiu would probably be doomed to die!

Shen Lin smiled: "Didn't you protect her?"

"Is it enough for Dong'er?" Ye Qinghuan was still worried.

"Don't worry, she's smarter than you think."

"General, you should go and take a look! She helped us, we can't just ignore her."

Shen Lin then let go of her hand: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
