Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 174

Shen Lingjun was both surprised and delighted.

Although Shen Wei hasn't woken up yet, the fact that he can move means that he's getting closer to waking up!

She tried to stimulate Shen Wei again and saw that he stirred again, his arm movements becoming more and more exaggerated, and his eyelids twitching slightly, as if he was about to open his eyes.

Wen and Shen Jingyang watched with great excitement.

Shen Jingyang asked, "Is Father about to wake up?"

Shen Lingjun said, "Dad's condition is better than I expected. This is a crucial time, so I won't go back tonight. I'll stay here and observe the situation."

Shen Wei is on the verge of waking up, and Shen Lingjun is really worried about leaving at this time.

Previously, to be on the safe side, she would go back to the Yongning Marquis's residence every night, but now that it's a critical time, it shouldn't matter if she doesn't go back for one night.

Shen Lingjun sent a servant from the Shen family back to Yufei Courtyard to tell them that she would not be returning. She and Madam Wen stayed with Shen Wei, keeping a close watch on his condition.

Shen Jingyang originally wanted to keep watch, but Shen Lingjun sent him to sleep in the next room: "Big brother, you're a patient yourself, why are you causing trouble here? Go and rest, we'll call you as soon as Dad wakes up."

Wen slept on another bed in Shen Wei's room, while Shen Lingjun slept in the outer room with a gauze curtain. They could react immediately to any movement Shen Wei made.

Wen had been working very hard these past few days, and now that it was late, she couldn't stay awake any longer and went to sleep quickly.

Shen Lingjun tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Her mind was filled with thoughts of the upcoming war this year and her father, who would soon wake up.

Who was the mastermind behind the deaths of 30,000 Shen family soldiers?

If Shen Wei can reveal the other party's identity after he wakes up, how will he seek justice and revenge for the 30,000 Shen family soldiers?

How can we avoid the outcome of North Korea's defeat this year?

As Shen Lingjun tossed and turned, her mind a jumbled mess, she suddenly heard a strange, subtle noise coming from outside.

Shen Lingjun listened intently for a moment and felt that it sounded like liquid being splashed and flowing, and there was also a faint pungent smell coming from it.

It clearly doesn't look like it's raining.

She wanted to call the servants, but was afraid that making a sound would wake up Madam Wen, so she decided to go out and take a look herself.

But when she got out of bed and shuffled to the door, she was surprised to find that it was locked from the outside!

Shen Lingjun was utterly shocked!

There was a lock on the outside of the door, but since Shen Wei came back and moved in, it has never been locked again. Who has locked it now?

It definitely couldn't be someone from the Shen family!

That means there is danger here!

Shen Lingjun then heard the crackling sound of flames burning outside!

The sound came from all directions almost simultaneously, and the firelight quickly shone through the windows!

Shen Lingjun finally understood that the sound of liquid splashing she had just heard was someone pouring kerosene outside Qianzhang Hall!
