"Besides, you and I came here together, which makes them even more suspicious."

"Fortunately, I took you to see Emperor Ren De in advance, so that I could use Emperor Ren De to suppress the Shen family."

"As for this drop of blood recognition..." Luo Yihuan smiled indifferently.

"Anyway, remember, you have to do what you promised me."

Sang Ning nodded, put the box on the table, and left the Envoy Inn.

At the Shen family, in Old Madam Shen’s yard.

Old Madam Shen sat upright in a chair with a sullen look on her face.

Nanny Wang walked up to her and whispered, "Madam, why are you unhappy?"

"You should be happy that the Second Miss is back."

Madam Shen took a deep breath and clapped her hands on the armchair.

"This matter is too strange."

"The news was released in Jiangnan a month ago, and today the Princess of Liguo brought people to the Shen family to recognize her relatives."

"Although we have confirmed our relationship through blood test, I still feel that this matter is not simple."

She turned her head and looked at Nanny Wang. "Send someone to secretly take the money and go to Bai Xiaotang to find out if the Sima family in Liguo really picked up a little girl more than ten years ago."

"Find out where you found it, when and where."

"Also find out Mi'er's identity."

Nanny Wang nodded, "Yes, old lady."

"However, today, this old servant saw that the Second Young Lady did not seem very happy."

"Who would have thought that this child, raised in our Shen family, suffered so much."

Madam Shen took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I hope she is the blood of our Shen family."

"If the Princess of Li Country wants to take her away, she has to wait for Jiang Xuan to come back."

"I just don't know if His Majesty will punish our Shen family."

Nanny Wang said, "I have just asked someone and found out that Prince Rui went to the palace before coming to the Shen residence."

"It is said that he had some unpleasantness with His Majesty, and then the people from the Emperor Emeritus came to see His Majesty, and Prince Rui left."

"This second young lady is from Li Country. Our Shen family didn't know about it beforehand. If His Majesty wants to blame her, we still have Prince Rui and Prince Jin to take the blame."

Old Madam Shen lowered her eyes and narrowed them helplessly.

"Let's arrange for Sang Ning to stay in Huayuan Courtyard first. As for Mi'er, let's send some things over there."

"Let Mi'er know that even if Sang Ning comes back, I will still love her."

"Yes, old lady."

The next day, when Shen Mi woke up, Qinghe and Yunlan came in with hot water for Shen Mi to wash.

Qinghe twisted the handkerchief and handed it to Shen Mi.

"Miss, what should we do next?"

"If Miss wants to leave the Shen family, Qinghe will go with you."

Shen Mi's face was calm as she reached out and took the handkerchief from Qinghe's hand.

"Silly girl, you were originally my sister's maid. Now that I have asked you to follow me for so long, it is really unfair to you."

"I won't leave the Shen family for the time being."

"I have to wait for my uncle to come back."

Yun Lan took a comb and combed Shen Mi's hair. Seeing Shen Mi like this, she felt a little distressed.

"I don't know how long it will take the general to get to Yanjing."

"I don't believe that the young lady is not a member of the Shen family."

"I heard that when Queen Pei died, it was the day when the third prince of Li State ascended the throne. She was the queen for only one day, and then she was sentenced to death."

"I haven't heard that she has any children."

Shen Mi looked at herself in the bronze mirror and suddenly thought of something Murong Che had told her before.

When Pei Wan died, there was a full-term baby girl in her belly. Could it be referring to her?

However, she only remembered that in her dream, her aunt called her Yaoyao.

She was a nameless child who was secretly raised in the palace by her aunt.

She doesn't want to be a princess.

After finishing her make-up, Shen Mi stood up from her chair and was about to ask Yun Lan to prepare the carriage.

Nanny Wang, who was beside Old Madam Shen, came in carrying something.

"Second Miss, this is the old lady's intention."

Shen Mi lowered her eyes and saw a cherry pink glass bracelet inlaid with gemstones. It looked like a top-quality product.

Shen Mi frowned slightly, "Madam, what's going on?"

Nanny Wang said, "The old lady said that since Miss returned to Beijing for so long, she hasn't given Miss anything decent, so this bracelet is for you."

"The old lady also said that no matter what the young lady's status is, she is a member of our Shen family and her beloved granddaughter."

Shen Mi looked at the cherry pink bracelet and suddenly felt a little dazed.

In the past, Madam Shen didn't like her, but after Lin left, she gradually accepted her.

Now, she didn't know what Mrs. Shen's attitude towards her was.

But after all, it was Madam Shen's good intention, so Shen Mi had no choice but to accept it.

She picked up the bracelet, put it on her hand, and said to Nanny Wang, "Please thank my grandmother for me."

“My granddaughter loves it.”

Nanny Wang nodded repeatedly, "As long as the girl likes it."

After Nanny Wang left, Shen Mi took off the bracelet on her hand and handed it to Yun Lan.

"Put it in a box so it doesn't break."

Yunlan took the bracelet and looked at it for a moment.

"The old lady still cares about our young lady's feelings."

"Such a valuable bracelet should also be given to the young lady."

Shen Mi sighed, turned around and instructed Yun Lan.

"Is the carriage ready?"

Yun Lan nodded. "It's ready. I've also informed Master Yu."

"Now that the Crown Prince is in the East Palace, it may not be easy for Master Yu to come out."

Shen Mi put on a purple gauze coat and a veil.

"Let's go and meet Brother."

The carriage soon arrived at Wangjing Tower.

With the help of Yun Lan, Shen Mi went through the side door to the private room of Wangjing Tower.

The door of the private room was opened, and Yu Zian sat in front of the tea table with a calm expression.

Seeing Shen Mi coming, he quickly stood up.

"Mi'er."

"Senior brother."

Shen Mi walked over and sat opposite Yu Zian.

Yu Zian said: "I already know about the Shen family's affairs, what are you going to do?"

Shen Mi poured himself a cup of tea with an extremely calm expression.

"Just wait and see what happens."

"Even if we want to deal with the Shen family's affairs, we have to deal with the prince first."

"As long as the prince is alive, I will not be at peace."

"Brother, have you encountered any suspicious incidents in the Prince's Mansion these days?"

Yu Zian frowned slightly and thought for a moment.

"No."

"Although the queen has gone, the prince is still the same as usual."

"But... there is one thing."

Shen Mi frowned, "What's the matter?"

Yu Zian whispered, "These past few days, someone would occasionally go to the prince's study to discuss something."

"I remember his face."

"After the man finished discussing, he left the room and seemed to be heading towards the dense forest south of the Prince's Mansion."

“It’s all done secretly.”

"I think there must be some secret."

"Secret?" Shen Mi's eyes changed slightly.

"What secret could it be? Could it be that the prince wants to rebel?"

She got up from her chair and walked to the table to get some white rice paper and a pen.

"I remember that my senior brother has a photographic memory."

"Also, you can draw portraits. Can you please draw the general outline of that person?"

Yu Zian nodded, picked up the white rice paper and pen, thought for a moment, drew the man's general appearance, and handed it to Shen Mi.

Shen Mi looked at it for a moment and seemed to feel that it was somewhat familiar.
