Newlyweds divorced: Marry a scumbag and his brother is sweet and have a baby
Chapter 71 The cause of her mother’s death
Shen Yan followed Xie Huaijing to Zhennan Prince's Mansion to meet Dongqing.
After the eldest princess is punished, Dongqing can leave on her own as a witness.
But she did not leave, but was taken to the palace by Lin Xiaoliu.
When Shen Yan saw Dongqing, she was in the secret room of the palace.
"Miss Shen." When Dongqing saw Shen Yan, she immediately stood up and greeted her, using words to please her.
"What do you have to say to me?" Shen Yan got straight to the point.
Dongqing cautiously said, "Miss Shen, you promised to send me away after I accomplished the task. Where are you going to send me?"
After the eldest princess was sent to Puning Temple, Shen Yan used a trick to drive a wedge between the eldest princess and Dongqing, and promised Dongqing to send her away after her accomplishments were completed to ensure that she could live safely.
If Dongqing doesn't agree, she will be guilty of the same crime as the eldest princess.
After some weighing and weighing, Dongqing agreed to cooperate with Shen Yan.
"You don't need to know now. The conditions I promised you will be fulfilled." Shen Yan stared at Dongqing, "Is this why you want to see me?"
"No, Miss Shen, I want silver, I want one hundred thousand taels of silver!" Dongqing said.
She betrayed the eldest princess, and the Queen Mother would definitely not let her go. She would have to live in anonymity from now on.
Shen Yan was not angry, but looked at Dongqing coldly, "My money is not that easy to get, what will you give me in exchange for it?"
"Secret! I have a huge secret about your biological mother, Miss Shen." Dongqing said.
"What secret?" Shen Yan raised her eyebrows.
Dongqing played with her fingers, "Miss Shen, I won't tell you until I see Yinzi."
"Lin Xiaoliu, go get one hundred thousand taels of silver notes." Xie Huaijing ordered. He knew that Shen Yan didn't have so many silver notes on him now.
"Holly, you'd better give me useful information, otherwise, not only will you not get the money, but you will also lose your life!"
Shen Yan leaned back and sat lazily on the chair, tapping the armrest with her fingers, making a sound as cold as ice.
Dongqing couldn't help but shuddered, "Yes, I don't dare to lie to you."
She never thought that one day, Shen Yan, whom she had always despised, would make her tremble with fear with just one look.
After a cup of tea, Lin Xiaoliu came back, "Your Majesty, this is one hundred thousand taels of silver notes."
Xie Huaijing photographed the silver note in front of Dongqing, "If you dare to lie, even if you take the money and run to the ends of the earth, I will still have thousands of ways to find you!"
"The slaves dare not."
Dongqing's eyes shone, and she took the banknote into her hand and counted it again and again. She only spoke after making sure it was one hundred thousand taels of banknote.
"Miss Shen, your mother's death was not due to illness as rumored by the outside world, but there was something fishy about it."
"What's strange?" Shen Yan was shocked in her heart.
She only remembered that not long after her mother died, she was driven out of the capital.
"Yes..." Dongqing told Shen Yan what she knew and added at the end, "Miss Shen, that's all I know. It's been too long and I don't have any evidence."
Shen Yan sat up straight, clutching the armrests with both hands, her expression frighteningly cold.
Xie Huaijing stood next to the chair, gently held Shen Yan's hand, and gave her comfort and strength.
Shen Yan's cold hands felt the warmth of Xie Huaijing's palm, and her body slowly relaxed.
"Do you know where my mother's former maid went?" Shen Yan asked Dongqing.
"I don't know, he seems to be missing." Dongqing asked tentatively, "Miss Shen, Prince, can I leave?"
Xie Huaijing did not speak, but looked at Shen Yan.
Shen Yan said, "You go to a safe place. No one will disturb your life. I will verify what you said. If it is true, I will withdraw my people. You are completely free. If you lie, you know what I will do." Let your life be worse than death!"
"Yes, Miss, I assure you, what I told is the truth." Dongqing's expression relaxed, she was indeed not lying.
"Xiao Liu, arrange for someone to send her away." Xie Huaijing ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Lin Xiaoliu left with Dongqing.
Shen Yan and Xie Huaijing were the only two people left in the secret room.
Xie Huaijing stood in front of Shen Yan, put his hand on Shen Yan's shoulder, and gently pulled her into his arms.
He stroked Shen Yan's silky hair with one hand, patted Shen Yan's back with the other, and said in a gentle voice, "Shen Yan, I will accompany you to find out the truth and kill your enemies with my own hands."
Shen Yan was sitting on a chair. Her head happened to be leaning on Xie Huaijing's chest, and she could clearly hear Xie Huaijing's heartbeat.
She felt an unprecedented sense of security and stability in her heart.
"It has been ten years since my mother passed away. It will take time to find out the truth. This matter will be discussed in the long term."
"It's not what you said. Passing geese leave traces. As long as something happens, it will definitely leave traces. We can always find clues."
Xie Huaijing comforted, "And we already have a target, so it will be easier to check."
Unlike him, there is still no clue as to the cause of his parents' death.
After listening to Xie Huaijing's words, Shen Yan's body really relaxed a lot.
"Thank you, Xie Huaijing." She lifted her head away from Xie Huaijing's chest, stood up and said, "I'll go back and get the banknote now, and I'll bring it back to you later."
"No need to pay it back." Xie Huaijing said.
Shen Yan refused, "If you borrow something, you have to pay it back. It's not difficult to borrow again."
"You didn't borrow this, but I gave it to you on my own initiative. Just treat it as a betrothal gift from me in advance."
Xie Huaijing looked serious, "This entire Zhennan Prince's Mansion, including me, will one day only belong to you. You used your own money in advance, why should you say anything back?"
Shen Yan couldn't help but smile, "Xie Huaijing, you have such a sweet mouth and you are so lovable."
"Then do you like me?" Xie Huaijing asked expectantly.
"I……"
"Ha, I know, I must like you, but you are shy and embarrassed to answer. It doesn't matter, I understand what you mean."
Xie Huaijing was afraid of hearing Shen Yan say he didn't like it, so he stopped Shen Yan from talking.
He would give Shen Yan time to make Shen Yan fall in love with him not because she was moved, but because she really liked him.
"Let's go, I'll take you back home." Xie Huaijing's face was full of gentleness.
"it is good."
Shen Yan understood Xie Huaijing's love, which was so upright, fiery and sincere, devoted and doting, giving everything he had.
Whoever meets such a treasured man will want to treat him well, right?
However, it was because Xie Huaijing was so beautiful that Shen Yan did not dare to speak easily. She had to know the answer in her heart clearly and give Xie Huaijing a positive answer before she could say that.
The carriages and horses here are very slow. She wants to love only one person in her life. She feels that Xie Huaijing deserves such love. Once he opens his mouth, it will be for life.
In less than half an hour, Shen Yan arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion.
She got off the carriage and was shocked when she saw the situation in front of her.
