Reborn Young Lady's Peerless Grace

"Fourth Miss, you're here. I don't know what's wrong with that guy inside, he insisted on seeing you and has something to tell you." Shen Wanzhu curled her lips. If it wasn't about her fourth sister, she wouldn't be so kind.

Shen Wanqing nodded, pressed the switch and walked into the dark room.

The room had already been cleaned up by Shen Wanzhu. Shen Wanru was sitting on the ground, dying, with her back against the wall. There were dark red bloodstains on her body, and she was breathing more out than in.

Hearing footsteps, she raised her head with difficulty and saw Shen Wanqing, her eyes lit up: "Fourth sister, you are here..."

Shen Wanqing raised her eyebrows slightly as she didn't call him by his name.

She coughed and said intermittently: "I regret it... Haha, these days I have been thinking that we are sisters and should support and look after each other. Ahem, I shouldn't use you as my stepping stone. I really regret it. If we sisters are well, our family should be... harmonious and happy... Ahem... "

After a violent coughing fit, she forced a self-deprecating and ugly smile: "I know I'm dying, Fourth Sister, can you forgive me? In my next life, I will definitely be a good sister..."

Shen Wanqing stood there indifferently, listening to her words, a trace of pain welling up in her heart. If she hadn't been reborn, everything would have ended long ago. These people in the Marquis' Mansion had climbed to power by stepping on the blood and tears of her and the entire General's Mansion. Would they have felt the slightest regret then?

No, if she remains so weak and vulnerable throughout her life, they will simply think that she is not valuable enough.

After a while, she looked at Shen Wanru with eyes full of expectation and said quietly: "I will never forgive you."

Shen Wanru's whole body froze. He wanted to say something else, but Shen Wanqing had already turned and left, leaving her with a back that she would never be able to touch again.

She regrets it now, but it's too late...

Su seemed to have some feelings, sometimes lucid and sometimes confused, acting crazy and mad, and never left Wutong Courtyard again.

On Xiao Chenyang's side, Du Zhijie had already sent people to investigate the whereabouts of Princess Suyun and Fan Yunfei, so Shen Wanqing went out of the house directly to comfort Xuanyuan Qiaoer.

Fortunately, this sister was actually stronger than Shen Wanqing had imagined. She put herself in good spirits and even sent people to make more detailed arrangements for patrolling the mansion. She knew that protecting herself was all she could do at this moment.

Shen Wanqing felt relieved. Now that she was out, she went to Ji'an Hall again under Linglong's cover. The entire information network had been set up and Zuimenglou had also been arranged.

The person below presented the latest investigation information: "Miss, please take a look."

Shen Wanqing flipped through the documents for a while. They mostly recorded minor events from various families in the capital. This was just the result of a trial run. She nodded slightly with satisfaction. Sometimes, it was these insignificant pieces of information that came in handy in important situations. It seemed that Zuimenglou and the clinic had played a significant role.

As soon as I returned to the Hou Mansion, I heard Jing'er saying indignantly that Jiang Ce was here again.

"He wanted to see the young lady, but was stopped by the Third Young Lady's men. Young lady, this Prince Jiang is still haunting us. Do you want to tell the general and teach him a lesson?" Jing'er waved her fist, wishing she could punch Bang Bang first.

Shen Wanqing couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry about him."

The Jiang Mansion is in a mess right now, yet he still has the mind to come over. I don’t know what his plan is.

Xiao Chenyang’s matter is the most important thing at the moment. Once Xiao Chenyang is found, the first thing to do is to deal with the Jiang Mansion. If anyone dares to harm her, I will naturally avenge him with my own hands.

Unexpectedly, two days later, another major event happened in the capital. Zhao Yurou was actually named a princess.

Jing'er was so angry that she screamed, "How can she be worthy of being a princess?"

Shen Wanqing's heart sank. If she was not mistaken, this was Jiang Ce's operation.

Just then, news came from Du Zhijie that Xiao Chenyang had been found, so Shen Wanqing hurried to the palace.

"Right now, there's a perfect opportunity to save someone. The palace will hold a banquet in a few days, and Zhao Yurou and Fan Yunfei will be married at that time. Princess Suyun will probably take this opportunity to do something."

A thought flashed through Shen Wanqing's mind. It was just as she thought. Jiang Ce was becoming more and more ruthless. Since he was using a weak woman to marry in exchange for benefits, what benefits did Yuwen Ze promise him, or what benefits did Shen Yunlan give him?

She thought for a moment and said, "At this time, their attention is mostly on the palace banquet. Their precautions will be lowered. Will we be able to successfully rescue Xiao Chenyang?"

Du Zhijie nodded appreciatively.

"Why is it Zhao Yurou?" Shen Wanqing couldn't help asking. Aren't princesses usually the ones who get married for foreign purposes?

As if confirming her suspicions, Du Zhijie said in a deep voice, "It was originally the eldest princess's, but she made a big fuss and would rather die than marry Fan Yunfei. It was Jiang Ce who took the initiative to suggest that Zhao Yurou marry him."

Shen Wanqing lowered her eyes. In this case, Jiang Ce was undoubtedly a lackey of Yuwen Ze and Jiang Yunlan.

The eldest princess is the daughter of Concubine De and the biological sister of the second prince. She has been spoiled since childhood, so it is understandable that she is unwilling to marry Fan Yunfei.

Putting aside the unfamiliarity of Zi Luo Country after the marriage, Fan Yunfei himself was not a suitable match. Previous investigations revealed that Fan Yunfei had a fiery temper, was cruel, and was treacherous. While he had no imperial consort, he possessed countless concubines, some of whom he reportedly snatched from the street. He was also unkind to women, viewing them as mere playthings.

Shen Wanqing sighed softly: "Zhao Yurou is also a proud person. I'm sure she won't agree to the marriage. A man like Fan Yunfei will ruin her life if she marries him."

"Whether she likes it or not, the title of Princess has been given. The matter is basically settled. There is no room for maneuver." Du Zhijie said lightly. Then he turned his face away slightly, and the tips of his ears reddened. "Don't worry, I won't do that. You will definitely be my treasure in the future."

Shen Wanqing's heart trembled. They were talking about serious business, everything was fine.

The old man heard this when he walked to the door, and his eyes almost rolled to the sky. Oh my, you kid have always been unromantic, and now there is a day when you have to beat around the bush and say sweet words.

"Cough cough." He deliberately coughed loudly twice.

After a while, Du Zhijie opened the door with a gloomy face: "What are you doing?"

The old man blinked, pushed the door open and walked in, saying loudly: "I have found some clues about the disguise technique. However, there is good news and bad news. You..."

Before he could continue to keep the secret, he felt Du Zhijie's piercing gaze behind him.

"Hmm..." The old man swallowed and said directly, "After investigation, I found that the royal family of Zi Luo Kingdom has always had a secret method of disguise. It should have been developed by a ghost doctor in the past. It uses a special poison. Although the disguise is very effective, it will corrode the skin and reveal flaws over time. Combined with the conversation between Fan Yunfei and Princess Suyun that I learned over the past two days, the good news is that Master Xiao Chenyang is definitely alive. The bad news is that what they want may be his... face..."
