Shen Li is missing.

Not seen in Concubine Liu's palace.

Many people knew that Concubine Liu summoned her to take her pulse, and they also saw her enter Concubine Liu's palace and never come out again.

When Liu Fei yelled that Shen Li had disappeared, everyone looked at her like an idiot.

Such a lame excuse, only someone with a broken brain could come up with it.

Who doesn’t know about the things between the Liu family and Fang Yao?

You are just a concubine, you should just vent your anger, why do you hide someone else's child and refuse to acknowledge it?

The Queen Mother had just recovered, but when she learned that Shen Li was killed by Concubine Liu, she lost her breath and passed out again.

Doctor Wang took out the stethoscope and dopamine that Shen Li had left him, and used the injection technique he had just learned. After one injection, the patient was saved, but he was sometimes conscious and sometimes confused, and he couldn't leave anyone by his side for a moment.

The emperor personally interrogated Concubine Liu about where she had hidden Shen Li. Concubine Liu became anxious and swore on the lives of her entire family and her own life, saying that she had done nothing and that Shen Li had really disappeared suddenly.

Unfortunately, no one believed her absurd statement.

The emperor ordered Mu Heng to take people to search Concubine Liu's residence. They searched every corner but could not find any trace of Shen Li.

Later, the search range was expanded, starting from Liu Fei's residence and expanding outward in circles, but still no findings were made.

Xiao Chenze was extremely anxious.

He had just learned that Shen Li was the one who rescued him from the clutches of the underworld, and before he could figure out how to meet her, she disappeared.

Fang Yao's eyes were red, and he was chasing the Liu family outside the palace like a madman.

He said to the Emperor, "Lady Liu is yours, Your Majesty's, and I cannot do anything to her. But I will not let any of her family go. I will not stop fighting the Liu family until Lady Liu hands over Li'er. Every delay means one more death for the Liu family."

The emperor was in a heavy mood.

Fang Yao is too important to him. If this matter is not handled properly, he is worried that it will cause discord between the emperor and his subjects.

After comforting Fang Yao and letting her leave the imperial study, the emperor brought the imperial guards to Concubine Liu's residence.

Liu Fei saw Shen Li disappear with her own eyes, and her two confidants also saw it. Unfortunately, no one believed what they said, and she had no way to defend herself.

Just when she was feeling extremely anxious, the Emperor came over. Concubine Liu rushed over to him and said, "Your Majesty, you must believe me. I am truly wronged. Miss Shen really did disappear suddenly. She...she is a monster, Your Majesty. Wuuwuwu, Your Majesty, you must believe me. If I have lied in the slightest, I will die a miserable death, Your Majesty..."

The emperor couldn't help but laugh in anger. He kicked her far away and squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth, "I came to give you one last chance, but I didn't expect you to still be quibbling at this point. Come, drag out those two servants who cooperated with Concubine Liu in lying and behead them."

The nanny and the palace maid who had been saying that they had seen Shen Li disappear were dragged out. Concubine Liu suddenly collapsed on the ground, tears streaming down her face, but she couldn't speak.

The emperor looked at her coldly with a gloomy face, "Concubine Liu, if you still refuse to tell the truth after all this, then you will be sent to the cold palace for now."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, everything I say is true. I dare not lie to you. Your Majesty, please understand."

"Humph, every word is true? Is this the only word that is true? You can even make up something like Miss Shen is a monster. Do you think I am a fool? Concubine Liu, I know why you want to summon Miss Shen. Who can you hide your little tricks from? Aren't you just trying to take this opportunity to embarrass Miss Shen and avenge your useless brother? Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you have two princes by your side? Concubine Liu, you have misjudged your position. I came here today to make you understand one thing. In my mind, you can die, but Fang Yao cannot. If you still insist that you don't know the whereabouts of Miss Shen, then Fang Yao wants to wipe out the Liu family, and I will not ask."

Liu Fei stared at him blankly, tears streaming down her face, not caring about the fact that her makeup was smudged.

The emperor's cold expression frightened her. She regretted it so much. If she had known this day would come, why did she summon Shen Li?

She stretched out her hand and crawled towards the emperor.

The emperor turned and walked out, "Come here, drag her to the cold palace and keep her under strict guard. No one is allowed to visit her."

Many people witnessed the Imperial Guards dragging Concubine Liu to the cold palace. The Third and Fourth Princes tried to plead for mercy, but were scolded and driven out of the palace by the Emperor. No one dared to speak again.

Shen House.

Zhao was in an extremely good mood. She didn't expect that Shen Li, whom she had tried so hard to kill, was actually dealt with by Concubine Liu.

If I had known it was so simple, I wouldn't have spent so much effort before.

Shen Zhaojiang's face was gloomy, as if covered with soot from the bottom of a pot.

In order to gain face in front of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, he wanted to ease the relationship after she returned home, so he specially found someone outside to restore Fang's reputation.

Unexpectedly, just one day later, Shen Li could not be found.

The Liu family was so frightened that they didn't even dare to attend the morning court, for fear that they would be chopped by Fang Yao's sword.

The third and fourth princes came to Shen Zhaojiang for help, asking him to persuade Fang Yao not to harm innocent people.

How dare he persuade her?

Fang Yao brought people to the Liu family and smashed the door. They jumped up and down outside and cursed the Liu family's ancestors. Even the Censorate pretended not to see it and did not impeach them.

Isn't it because everyone knows that the Liu family has touched Fang Yao's sore spot? If he goes to persuade them at this time, wouldn't he be courting death?

He didn't dare, and couldn't persuade her.

The third and fourth princes felt that he was disrespectful and left with their sleeves slammed.

As a result, when Fang Yao met him, she was so angry that she had no place to vent. She pointed at his nose and scolded him for not going to find Shen Li, calling him a turtle bastard and a bastard who didn't dare to settle the score with the Liu family after his daughter was gone.

He cursed almost all the ancestors of the Shen family and spit all over his face.

After getting scolded outside, I can't be happy when I come back.

The old lady asked him, "There's still no news about that evil creature?"

He exploded immediately, "Evil devil, evil devil, doesn't she have a name?"

The Queen Mother fell ill because of her disappearance, and her family members were still in this state. What would others think? Would she still want to maintain the good reputation she had maintained for so many years?

……

Three days had passed and there was no news from Shen Li, and Qiluo and the others began to worry.

During this period, carrier pigeons from Mizhou delivered urgent secret reports.

Empress Liu's younger brother bullied other miners in the mine and was beaten to death by a group of people.

Because the incident happened late at night and there was no light, it was difficult to see who did it, and there was no evidence to prove who started it first, so no murderer was caught.

He was the first person in the Liu family to die because of Shen Li's disappearance.

Fang Yao received the secret report delivered by carrier pigeon and immediately presented it to the emperor during the morning court session.

Everyone knew that Fang Yao had sent someone to do this, but there was no evidence.

The Liu family felt like they had lost their parents, and everyone was in danger.

When the news was sent to the palace, Concubine Liu learned that her brother had died because of her. She spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
