Everyone was shocked by the sudden change of mind.

Nanny Liu, who was originally serving beside Mrs. Hong and was pushed away and fell to the ground, was the first to react.

"Miss, what are you going to do?"

As she awkwardly climbed up from the ground, she waved her hand for other servants to go find help.

Shen Muxi's eyes were red, as if he had lost his mind.

Hong was caught off guard and was strangled. She couldn't catch her breath and her eyes began to roll back.

The two men who were kneeling on the ground and begging for Hong's forgiveness had now stood up, ready to snatch Shen Muxi from her hands at any time.

Shen Muxi looked at the two of them coldly, "If you dare to come over, I will break her neck."

Those who had been prepared to restrain Shen Muxi suddenly dared not move.

"Miss...Miss, please talk nicely. The old lady loves you so much, how could you..."

"Let me ask you one question. Did you go to the Little East Palace to kidnap someone?"

Shen Muxi's mind and eyes were filled with the thought of his daughter being kidnapped.

He simply wouldn't listen to any advice.

Nanny Liu was about to wink at the two men in tight clothes, but Shen Muxi glared at her, and she suddenly became as quiet as a chicken.

Hong waited for a long time but no one came to her rescue. She managed to breathe a sigh of relief and spoke with difficulty, "The current emperor is benevolent and righteous, and values ​​filial piety the most. If you..."

"Are you trying to say that if I really did something to you, I would have no hope of marrying into the Little East Palace?"

After saying this, Shen Muxi chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Originally, I've put so much effort into taking care of the little princess these days, and His Highness has already taken a new look at me. But, because of your meddling, His Highness is now angry with me and has threatened that if anything happens to the little princess, I'll be buried with her. Tell me, I'm almost dead, do I still want to marry into the Little East Palace?"

As she spoke, she regained her previous frantic expression, pinching Hong's neck and shaking it continuously, "Tell me, why did you kidnap the little princess? Can't you just bear to see me well?"

"Miss, the old lady is in poor health and can't stand this kind of torture. If you are really unhappy, please come and pinch this old slave and let the old lady go, okay?"

Nanny Liu almost knelt down before her.

Yesterday, the second young lady said that the eldest young lady seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit and she was still not well. In today's situation, no one would believe that the eldest young lady was not possessed by an evil spirit.

Seeing that Shen Muxi didn't react at all, she shouted outside, "Go, go to Ziyang Temple and find Master Xuan Ling!"

"Master Xuan Ling from Ziyang Temple!"

Shen Xi exclaimed beside Shen Muxi.

Shen Muxi stopped what he was doing, looked at Shen Xi, and asked silently.

Shen Xi understood her look, "It is said that Master Xuan Ling has profound Taoist skills and can see spirits. He is a semi-immortal being who can summon wind and rain above and slay evil spirits below...

Oh, and I also heard that Master Xuan Ling seems to have a senior brother who, because he sought some profound Daoist teachings and peeped into the secrets of heaven too much, he lost his eyes and his whereabouts remain unknown to this day..."

Shen Muxi was listening attentively to Shen Xi's explanation, but in the eyes of others, she looked like she was in a daze.

The person who had been waiting for an opportunity was now slowly approaching Shen Muxi.

Just when they were about to "snatch" Hong back from Shen Muxi, Shen Muxi suddenly came to his senses and dragged Hong back a step.

"Where did you hide the little princess? Tell me, and I'll exchange my life for yours."

It seemed that Mrs. Hong was being strangled by Shen Muxi all the time, but in fact, Shen Muxi controlled the strength very precisely, just enough to make her roll her eyes but not so hard as to strangle her to death.

After repeating this several times, Hong was already exhausted.

"Not dead... nor hiding..."

She spoke haltingly, "The person was robbed."

The news was exactly the same as the one He Hong brought back to Murong Jingyan. Shen Muxi's heart tightened, "Who robbed it?"

"I really don't know this subordinate, otherwise I wouldn't have come back to apologize."

Seeing that Shen Muxi's expression had softened, Nanny Liu stepped forward again and persuaded her earnestly, "Miss, the old lady did this for you. When you marry the Crown Prince, you will have your own children.

But everyone knows that there is someone dear to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. If you have a child born from that dear one, how can you and your child have a good life?"

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Shen Muxi's eyes, "So, this is also the reason why you went to so much trouble to get rid of me and my mother?"

As soon as Shen Muxi said this.

Not only did Mrs. Hong's breathing become slightly choked, but even Madam Liu's breathing became disordered.

really.

Shen Muxi's eyes seemed to be frost-hardened, piercing Hong like a sharp blade. "When mother was seriously ill, was it you who sent someone to do it?"

The words she asked were questions, but her tone was affirmative.

She had never figured it out before. In Shen Xi's few vague memories, the Gong family had always been strong-willed.

According to her personality, if she knew that Shen Chuanhai had betrayed her, she would definitely break up with Shen Chuanhai.

Even if I didn't divorce him, I wouldn't be nice to him.

But when Shen Xi came back, he found that Gong seemed to have changed.

The flamboyant woman who used to be so outspoken seems to have become calm and smooth with the passage of time.

She always thought that it was because Gong was the mistress of the Shen family and had to be versatile and comprehensive in everything she did.

until...

She accidentally discovered that the Shen family's finances had long been controlled by the Hong family, and a distant relative who came to seek refuge also had the opportunity to get involved in the Shen family's finances...

If it wasn't for someone extremely close to him, Hong would never give up power.

Shen Muxi even had some doubts as to whether Shen Rou was the unmarried child of Shen Chuanhai and Zhang.

Shen Muxi suddenly changed the subject, catching Hong and Madam Liu off guard.

The Hong family couldn't even put on a false front to pretend that everything was going well.

Aunt Liu was anxious and blurted out, "Miss, we should have a conscience. You know how good the old lady is to you and the lady. When the bad guys entered your yard, it was the old lady who protected you..."

"The person was found in Shen Rou's yard. Why are you so confident that he is mine?"

Shen Muxi looked at Madam Liu with a smile.

Does this count as confession?

Aunt Liu obviously realized her mistake and said, "It was just a slip of the tongue..."

"From the way you look now, it seems you're more guilty than you made a mistake."

At that time, she had just been reborn into Shen Xi's body.

She threw that thief directly into Shen Rou's yard.

Humans are animals with the primary sense of sight.

I was particularly impressed by the place I saw for the first time.

When Mrs. Hong and Madam Liu saw the bandit, he was clearly in Shen Rou's yard.
