When Shen Chaoyan returned to the courtyard, she did not meet Zhang Hongying and her family. Instead, there was a lot of commotion in Sun Wenyuan's house.

Shen Chaoyan didn't say much. She asked Miying and Xianglan to help her back to the inner courtyard and closed the gate.

Zhiqiu was confused when he saw Shen Chaoyan's pale face and weak body.

"Zhi Qiu, the young lady told you to go and rest, you don't have to stay here all the time." Xianglan said.

Zhiqiu didn't know what had happened, but seeing Shen Chaoyan looked weak, he felt very distressed.

However, she would not ask about things that she shouldn't ask, and Miss Shen was obviously sent back by someone arranged by the young marshal.

Zhiqiu would not even inquire about his master's affairs.

Only after Zhiqiu left did Miying nod and whisper, "Miss, she's left!"

"Xianglan, get a basin of hot water for me to wash my face." Shen Chaoyan said.

Xianglan responded and hurried to get a basin of hot water.

After washing up, Shen Chaoyan no longer looked heartbroken at all.

"Miss, this is too risky!" Xianglan whispered.

Seeing Shen Chaoyan vomiting blood yesterday really scared them to death.

If something really happens to the young lady, how will they explain to the master and the mistress?

Shen Chaoyan drank a bowl of porridge and chuckled, "Isn't this all right?"

Her pulse only looked particularly severe; in reality, it just looked weak.

However, Shen Chaoyan didn't expect that after making such a great sacrifice, she didn't even get a single sympathy from that bastard Xiao Yun, and he even sent her back to the courtyard.

"Miying, has the matter I assigned to you been exposed?" Shen Chaoyan asked.

"Don't worry, Miss. I changed into Liu Ye's clothes to buy the medicine. My body shape is similar to Liu Ye's, and I wore a hat and a mask, so the people in the clinic didn't see my appearance clearly!" Mi Ying said in a low voice.

Yes!

What Shen Chaoyan asked Mi Ying to do at that time was to go to the clinic to buy thunder god vine and a medicinal powder that would make the thunder god vine look more serious. Shen Chaoyan bought the poison himself and ate the medicinal powder himself.

Liu Ye is not a good person. Shen Chaoyan suffered a lot at the hands of Liu Ye and Xie Gongqiu in her previous life. When she saw Xie Gongqiu's maid Cai Ling yesterday, Shen Chaoyan recalled some things from her previous life.

Xie Gongqiu is actually not very smart, and she only has a few tricks up her sleeve.

Kidnapping, poisoning, assassination...

Seemingly cruel.

But in fact, Xie Gongqiu is not cautious enough, easily makes mistakes, and has an impatient temper.

She was kidnapped a few days ago. Since she didn't get what she wanted, she will definitely take action again. When she saw Cai Ling the day before yesterday, Shen Chaoyan was actually a little surprised. Xie Gongqiu was more anxious than she thought.

Before going to buy medicine, Miying went to Liuye's house to check. What they were going to use was not thunder god vine, but a poison that was deadly enough.

If you get even a little bit of it on you, you'll definitely die.

"Miss, if the young marshal investigates..."

"No!" Shen Chaoyan said with a smile.

Xianglan and Miying looked at Shen Chaoyan with some confusion, thinking that their young lady was too confident. How could she be sure that the other party would not investigate?

Seeing this, Shen Chaoyan smiled and said, "Xiao Yun and the Second Madam didn't get along to begin with. When the Second Madam forced Xie Gongqiu on Xiao Yun, Xiao Yun was very unhappy. But the Second Madam was not so clear about it and even planted Liu Ye into the mansion. She dared to poison me in front of him. Even if he doesn't like me, at least I am Xiao Yun's person now."

"Xiao Yun hates people who overreach, and the Second Madam not only planted spies in his house, but also dared to engage in these petty actions. Combined with Xie Gongqiu's kidnapping of me and my refusal to see the Second Madam, and all the evidence pointing to Liu Ye, Xiao Yun will blame everything on the Second Madam."

"The Marshal called Xiao Yun away again in the middle of the night last night. Although we don't know what happened in the Governor's Mansion, we can be sure... Second Madam must have suffered a great loss this time, and Xiao Yun will only blame her for all these things!"

Perhaps, Xiao Yun would find these things a little strange, but he would never associate them with her. If her poison was not cured in time, it would be fatal.

Shen Chaoyan deliberately created the image of herself as someone who is afraid of pain, death, and cowardly, even if it is not deeply ingrained in her bones.

Xiao Yun would not think that she dared to gamble with her own life.

"Miss, the young marshal suddenly sent you back and didn't let you recuperate in the young marshal's mansion. Did you discover something?" Xianglan didn't expect that there were so many layers of things involved.

Now after listening to Shen Chaoyan's explanation, and thinking about how Xiao Yun suddenly sent Shen Chaoyan back for no apparent reason, it must be that Xiao Yun discovered something, so he was angry?

Upon hearing this, Shen Chaoyan smiled and said, "Of course not!"

Xianglan and Miying looked at Shen Chaoyan in confusion, waiting for her answer.

"The Young Marshal's Mansion is full of dangers. I was poisoned right under his nose. There must be unrest in the Young Marshal's Mansion. Xiao Yun can't stay in the Young Marshal's Mansion at all times. Sending me back here to live is actually to protect my safety!" Shen Chaoyan said with a smile.

Xiao Yun is not good at expressing his emotions, and he is not good at letting others see his emotions.

But yesterday when she was poisoned, she discovered something.

"I see, then, young lady?"

Thinking of Shen Chaoyan's heart-wrenching cry earlier, tears flowed out like a flood that broke through the dam, unable to be restrained...

"Men don't like women who are too smart!" She chuckled.

The two maids finally understood. After all this time, they were heartbroken. It turned out that their young lady had directed and acted in a play all for Xiao Yun.

And she...

Cried all the way.

Who knows what the soldier who drove the car would say when he got back.

But Xiao Yun must know how painful and sad Shen Chaoyan was when he drove her out of the Young Marshal's Mansion.

"Okay, I've kept this matter to myself and never mention it again. Will you two remember this?" Shen Chaoyan said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, Miss. We know what's going on."

Shen Chaoyan took a deep breath. Although she controlled the dosage of the poison precisely, it still caused some damage to her body. She really had to be careful and take care of herself in the next period of time.

"Miss, I'll go buy a chicken and make a pot of chicken soup for you to nourish your body," said Xianglan.

Shen Chaoyan took a deep breath, as if thinking of something, and looked at Miying and said, "Miying, I have one more thing for you to do. Go to the storehouse, take out my dowry and count it carefully. Take all the ones that can be sold and exchange them for big rounds. Then give them to big brother. Tell him to go out and collect food and medicinal herbs. Spread them out and collect as much as you can."

"Tell Big Brother to do it secretly so that no one can see it. Also tell Big Brother that if you have any spare money, you can exchange it for food and medicinal herbs."
