Shen Chengye and Zhang Huiyun were looking at the double-sided embroidered screen with greed on their faces, trying to figure out how much money they could get from selling it and how much food they could buy, when they were knocked unconscious and tied up.

"Ms. Shen! The person has been tied up."

Shen Jiaojiao looked coldly at the two people lying on the ground and waved her hand, "Don't dirty this house. Tie them up and take them to the abandoned yard outside the city. Use some tricks to interrogate who else came with them."

The guards nodded and were about to leave when the leader couldn't help but ask again, "Are you really not going to tell Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

Shen Jiaojiao shook her head. "No! I can't live under their wings forever. Besides, this is my family affair. I can handle it. There's no need to make Ruyue upset with me."

The guard leader nodded and flew away immediately.

Shen Jiaojiao sat in the hall for a while, waiting for the people watching the excitement outside to completely disperse. Then she disguised herself and prepared to go out and meet the guards.

As soon as I reached the door, I heard my parents' voices behind me, "Jiaojiao!"

"Where are you going? Where are your elder brother and sister-in-law?"

Shen Jiaojiao didn't look back, but stared at the heavy, tall wooden door in front of her. "Dad! Mom! My eldest brother and sister-in-law died long ago while fleeing the famine. Now, there are only four of us, relying on each other for survival... Isn't this... a good thing?"

Shen Jiaojiao stood there and waited for a while, but didn't hear any answer. She gritted her teeth and prepared to push the door and leave.

But just as her hand rested on the door, her parents' choked voices came from behind her again, "Jiaojiao! Please spare their lives! After all... he is your brother..."

Shen Jiaojiao knew that no matter how many disobedient and unfilial things Shen Chengye and his friends did, they were still their parents' children in their eyes. But she also knew that some things could not be undone once they happened, and if she indulged them blindly, she would be doomed!

So she didn't look back, nor did she agree, but just pushed the door and walked out resolutely.

In the small courtyard, Shen Jiaojiao looked coldly at the few people lying on the ground in a state of extreme plight, "I didn't expect that you were all still alive..."

When the Shen brothers heard this familiar yet unfamiliar voice, they slowly raised their heads and their eyes widened instantly. The fair and beautiful person in front of them, dressed in silk, was actually their biological sister?

"You are... Jiaojiao?"

"Sister, we are your brothers! What are you going to do?"

"Do your parents know that you are so rebellious that you actually dared to hire someone to beat up your own brother?"

"Shen Jiaojiao! If you could just show a little bit between your fingers, it would be enough for us to live a good life. Why are you so vicious?"

"Shen Jiaojiao! Let us go immediately! If my parents knew, they would never forgive you!"

"We are your brothers. You will be thrown into jail and have your back stabbed if you do this!"

The Shen brothers roared with anger on their faces, unable to believe that their sister, who had been weak and vulnerable before, could be so cruel.

Shen Chengye and Zhang Huiyun threatened without any regard for the consequences.

"Bitch, let us go quickly. Otherwise, when we get out, you will definitely spread the news about Yu Ruyue and let everyone know how fickle this Princess Anguo is and how she seduced Wang Mazi and her father-in-law."

"Yes! And that sickly girl, she must have seduced that sickly girl, otherwise how could father and son turn against each other!"

When the Shen brothers heard this, they were surprised to find that Princess Anguo was actually that shameless woman?

Several people immediately felt confident.

They believed that Shen Jiaojiao would not dare to kill them, and as long as they got out, they would make careful plans for this matter.

Shen Jiaojiao looked at the greed and calculation in these people's eyes, and the last bit of warmth in her heart completely disappeared.

She looked at these people coldly and said, "Give them medicine!"

The guard next to him immediately brought out a basin of black medicinal juice.

The two guards worked together to give these people medicine.

The Shen brothers looked at the black medicine with fear in their eyes, and couldn't help but start cursing again.

"Shen Jiaojiao, you bitch, how dare you poison your own brother? You will not die a good death."

"If my parents knew, they would never let you go."

"I'm going to report it to the police! I'm going to report it to the police!"

But no matter how these people scolded her, Shen Jiaojiao's expression did not show any sign of life. Only after the medicine was completely drunk did these people feel deeply frightened.

"Jiaojiao! Big brother is wrong! Let us go, we won't tell anything when we get out."

"Yes! Second brother was distracted just now. We are siblings!"

……

Shen Jiaojiao looked at them kneeling on the ground with regretful expressions on their faces, but her heart was calm, because she knew that these people were not regretting, but were afraid!

An unknown amount of time passed, but the expected pain and death did not come. Soon, they could no longer make any sound.

The Shen brothers covered their throats, their eyes full of fear.

Shen Jiaojiao stared at her blood relatives and sighed, "Dad and Mom have been thinking about you all these years. I've often wondered if I should let go of the past grudges and get along with you if we meet again. But you refuse to repent and even use Ruyue to threaten me. She is my bottom line. I won't allow anyone to hurt her, not even my relatives!"

"So, I can only blame you for being too greedy!"

After Shen Jiaojiao finished speaking, she walked out, but stopped just as she reached the door.

"From now on, I will ensure that you have enough food and clothing. You won't need these legs anymore. Come on! Break them both!"

"That's right! You should thank your parents. If they hadn't let me spare your lives, that bowl of medicine would have been more than just a poison that could make you mute."

After she said this, she hurried away, leaving the deep voice behind.

By the time Yu Ruyue found out about this, Shen Jiaojiao had already appeared at her door in a daze.

Yu Ruyue's face was filled with nervousness as she hurried over. "Jiaojiao? I was just about to look for you. Such a big thing happened, why didn't you send someone to look for me? Were you bullied by those two beasts?"

"Jiaojiao, why aren't you talking? Do you still consider me your best friend?"

Shen Jiaojiao looked at the anxious face of the person in front of her and couldn't help but rush over and burst into tears.

"Kisaragi!"

Yu Ruyue quickly hugged her and patted her back with a look of heartache. "It's okay, it's okay. It's all in the past. Those beasts aren't worth your grief. I will take care of things and never let these people jump in front of you again."

Shen Jiaojiao shook her head and wanted to speak but was choked with sobs and couldn't speak.

Yu Ruyue could only accompany her like this, slowly and slowly, soothing Shen Jiaojiao's emotions bit by bit.

After Shen Jiaojiao calmed down completely, Yu Ruyue immediately took her hand and said, "Alright! You've been crying like a kitten. You're going to be a bride soon. Let's be happy. I will take care of all those things for you. There's no need to be so sad."

Shen Jiaojiao took the handkerchief, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with sobs, "Don't worry, I've already resolved the matter. They won't come out and make trouble again."

"It's just that I clearly no longer have any expectations of these brothers, but seeing their selfish and ugly faces again still makes me feel uncomfortable. I even wonder...how could I...be so...vicious..."
