After his wife and daughter died tragically, the scumbag prince's hair turned white overnight

After saying this, he stood up happily.

After taking two steps, she glared at Shen Muxi fiercely before turning to look at Shen Chuanhai, "Sir Shen, I want to take Miss Shen away. What do you think?"

"Your Highness, absolutely not."

Shen Chuanhai's back was already covered in cold sweat.

Even if Hong didn't say it explicitly, he recognized that the two people taken away by Murong Jingyan were from the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

"It is my fault that I failed to educate my daughter properly. I hope Your Highness will give me a chance so that I can atone for my sins."

Shen Xi's temperament changed drastically, and no one knew what she would say after she went to the Little East Palace.

In this case, it is better to keep her under your supervision.

His expression became more sincere.

Murong Jingyan half-closed his eyes, as if considering Shen Chuanhai's words.

Hong also spoke up, "Your Highness, we are all very sorry about what happened in the Little East Palace last night. If Your Highness requires the cooperation of the Shen Mansion, we will do it without hesitation, but..."

She glanced at Shen Muxi and continued, "Sister Xi is, after all, a legitimate daughter of our Shen Mansion. It's inappropriate for her to have been running to the Little East Palace these past few days. Last night, various reports about the missing little princess were circulating, and almost everyone suspected Sister Xi was responsible. If Your Highness takes someone away from the Shen Mansion again today, what if Sister Xi is truly innocent? Then...

How can she face people in the future?"

Murong Jingyan remained unmoved. "If she was truly wronged, I would marry her and let her live out the rest of her life in peace. But this is about my beloved daughter. I will never let anyone slip away from my hands."

"Your Highness," Shen Muxi stood up righteously, "If I can prove that the little princess's disappearance has nothing to do with me, will Your Highness stop making things difficult for my Shen family?"

As soon as she said this, the first person to get nervous was Mrs. Hong.

"Sister Xi..."

Shen Muxi glanced at Hong and then his gaze fell on Murong Jingyan again.

"Your Highness doesn't let me prove it, is it because you don't dare? Or is it that Your Highness suddenly came to my Shen Mansion to cause trouble just to give me, the unfavored daughter of the Shen Mansion, a warning?"

As if his heart was touched, Murong Jingyan became angry and said, "You crazy woman..."

The next moment, he asked again, "If you want to prove it, how do you prove it?"

Shen Muxi made way for him and said, "Your Highness, please move to the inner room."

Seeing Shen Muxi and Murong Jingyan enter the inner room together, Hong and Shen Chuanhai's hearts were in their throats.

They wanted the servants to pretend to approach casually.

He Hong glanced over with a faint look, and Shen Chuanhai and Hong immediately stopped thinking.

Inner room.

"Why did you come suddenly?"

Shen Muxi changed her previous confrontation with Murong Jingyan.

Because he cared too much, even his tone became more lively. "But does Xiaoxiao have any other news?"

Murong Jingyan also suppressed his previous arrogance and said calmly, "It is unreasonable for people from the Grand Tutor's Mansion to come to the Shen Mansion to report."

Shen Muxi pointed out, "I heard it with my own ears, they are the ones who took Xiaoxiao away."

"So this time, I am planning to take this person back to give Little East Palace a thorough cleanup."

Shen Muxi understood.

No wonder he was so purposeful the moment he arrived.

"What about Xiaoxiao..."

“There is no news yet, but judging from the directions the guard just mentioned, I think they might be heading north.

"North of Yecheng is Liangzhou, and north of Liangzhou is the Yuhuan Mountains, bordering Beichen."

Beichen...

Could it really be Gu Shi?

"Are you really sure?"

Shen Muxi's voice trembled slightly.

Whenever she thought of Gu Shi and Su Liuxi and her daughter, she felt that the strong hatred in her heart was about to tear her in two. She wished she could grow wings and go back to tear that family apart alive.

"I will send people to track her down, and I've given them orders. If they find Xiaoxiao's whereabouts, they should stay with her and ensure her safety."

Murong Jingyan did cooperate with her with sincerity.

Shen Muxi's eyes felt slightly hot, and an indescribable feeling surged from the bottom of his heart.

Before she could finish being moved, she heard Murong Jingyan say, "But right now, you can't leave Nanyuan."

"what?"

Shen Muxi was a little surprised.

How did he know that she wanted to leave for Beichen immediately?

"This is a good opportunity."

Murong Jingyan emphasized.

Shen Muxi lowered her eyes and immediately understood what Murong Jingyan meant.

Now that Xiaoxiao is missing, neither the Shen Mansion nor the Grand Tutor's Mansion can escape, and Shen Rou is sandwiched between the Grand Tutor's Mansion and the Anping Marquis' Mansion...

"It's indeed a good opportunity." She murmured softly.

Murong Jingyan and Shen Muxi have been alone in the inner room for a stick of incense.

People outside had no idea what the two were talking about.

One can only judge from the sounds of shattering porcelain and Murong Jingyan's occasional loud shouting that Shen Muxi is in there and will definitely not get any good result.

Just when Shen Chuanhai was determined to eavesdrop again.

Murong Jingyan suddenly walked out from the inner room.

Shen Chuanhai's eavesdropping posture even remained the same.

Murong Jingyan raised his eyebrows, then looked at Shen Muxi coldly.

“Just because I’m not touching you for now doesn’t mean you’re no longer a suspect.

You'd better be honest. What I say to you is not a joke."

After saying this, he snorted coldly and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Shen Chuanhai hurriedly caught up, "Your Highness, did Shen Muxi, the rebellious girl, offend you? Your Highness..."

Murong Jingyan showed no sign of looking back until he chased her out of the yard. Shen Chuanhai then returned to the house with a cold face, and the look he gave Shen Muxi was so cold that it seemed as if frost could form.

"Ni Nu, are you satisfied?"

Shen Muxi seemed to have not yet recovered from the fear of being embarrassed by Murong Jingyan.

Facing Shen Chuanhai's attack, she sneered with a pale face, "If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself. If you don't touch the little princess, why would you implicate me?"

"We're doing this... wrong. How did you know?"

Shen Chuanhai looked at Hong incoherently.

The latter nodded reluctantly.

Shen Chuanhai's eyes almost popped out.

"So you just..."

Shen Muxi blinked and spoke innocently, "Yesterday I went to the Little East Palace, and many of the servants in the Little East Palace can testify that Your Highness doesn't believe that the person you just ordered to be taken back is only from my Shen Mansion. I argued with Your Highness based on reason. Is there any problem?"

More than no problem?

If this could really divert Murong Jingyan's attention and prevent him from suspecting the Grand Tutor's Mansion, their whole family would have to thank Shen Muxi for diverting Murong Jingyan's attention.

Because those two guards were just the ones who ultimately handled the matter.

In fact, there was someone else who had contact with the secret agent of Xiaodong Palace.

Considering that if Murong Jingyan couldn't find anyone, he would come back to the Shen Mansion to continue causing trouble.

Shen Chuanhai finally suppressed the urge to punish Shen Muxi and instructed Liu Ma, "Let the young lady rest well at the old lady's place for the next few days."

This is clearly a disguised form of house arrest, having Hong's people watch her and prevent her from doing anything wrong.

Shen Muxi looked unwilling.

Shen Chuanhai angrily scolded, "You are the legitimate daughter of my Shen family. Regardless of whether this matter has anything to do with you or not, you must bear your responsibilities."

The title of "Shen family's legitimate daughter" weighed down her.

Shen Chuanhai didn't even give Shen Muxi a chance to say another word.

A farce.

The story ends with Shen Muxi being taken away by Nanny Liu to rest.

Shen Muxi took a deep look at Shen Chuanhai and his mother.

A barely perceptible sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Those who wrong you will always know how wronged you are.
