"How is this possible?!" Qin Jinshu slapped the coffee table beside her, and the tea bowl shattered to the ground.

"Princess, Shen Qing is indeed still alive and well because of her... When she got off the carriage, I saw with my own eyes that she got off by herself, but her left foot seemed to be injured--"

"Hiss——" Qin Jinshu realized later that she felt a pain in her palm.

She ignored the pain and turned to look at Qin Zhihao: "Second brother, didn't you say those people were reliable? How come they only injured her foot?"

Qin Zhihao's face had already turned pale.

The night before, he confirmed from the spies guarding the city gate that Shen Qingyin had indeed left the city and had only seven or eight people with him.

He immediately contacted the number one killer organization in the underworld, Yanluo Pavilion.

They spent a large sum of money to hire two hundred first-rate assassins to ambush in the four directions of east, west, south and north of the capital.

Anyone who sees Shen Qingyin will be killed without mercy.

In terms of martial arts, Yanluo Pavilion may not be as good as those people in the General's Mansion, but Yanluo Pavilion is ruthless and unscrupulous in doing things, and rarely fails.

In terms of the number of people deployed, they directly crushed Shen Qingyin and his group.

There is really no reason to let Shen Qingyin come back alive...

One hundred thousand taels of silver were spent, only to injure a foot?

That won't work!

"Someone come here!" Qin Zhihao called the close guard guarding the door over.

"Go and find out what's going on quickly and make them give me an explanation!" Qin Zhihao ordered in a deep voice.

"Yes."

The guards took the order and left, and Yunying also retreated.

The remaining brother and sister paced back and forth in the room, staring at each other.

Prince Kang's Mansion.

Shen Rongyue slept in, and just as she opened her eyes, Qin Yueze sent someone to call her.

"Concubine Shen, the prince is waiting for you in the carriage in front. He wants you to hurry up." said the maid.

Shen Rongyue stretched lazily. She was not as excited as before and even seemed a little reluctant.

Qin Yueze was looking for her just to use her as a cover to find Shen Qingyin.

Apart from looking for Shen Qingyin, he would not tell her about anything else, big or small, and would not take her with him.

She had temporarily suppressed her hatred towards Shen Qingyin and wholeheartedly helped Qin Yueze get close to Shen Qingyin.

This is the most valuable thing about her in Qin Yueze's heart now, and she felt it was worth it before.

But since I found out that Qin Yueze had someone else named Chu Xinglan behind his back, I felt that it wasn't worth it.

Chu Xinglan was not the prostitute she had imagined, but was actually the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

She vaguely remembered that the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion in her previous life also entered the harem. Now it seems that her entry into the harem was not accidental, but she had had an affair with Qin Yueze a long time ago.

She couldn't fight against such an identity no matter what.

In the future, not only will there be a Shen Qingyin above her head, but there will also be a Chu Xinglan...

It's ridiculous that she, a reborn person, had the upper hand, but now she has to give in everywhere...

This Chu Xinglan is obviously not a pushover. Who knows how hard it will be to live under her control in the future...

It’s hard to think about it.

In fact, there is no need to think about it, just look at the situation in the past few days and you will know.

After returning from the jewelry shop the day before yesterday, Qin Yueze deliberately avoided entering her yard.

Yesterday, Qin Yueze said he was going to the Prime Minister's Mansion to apologize, but he did not bring her with him.

After she came back, she went to Zhulanyuan to ask for an interview but was rejected, saying that she was tired...

And today, even when he called her out, he only sent a maid to come over, instead of coming to wait for her in person like before...

All this can only be because of Chu Xinglan......

At this rate, I don't know when she will be able to get pregnant with the prince's child...

"Hurry up, Concubine Shen, otherwise the Young Master will be unhappy if he has to wait for too long." The maid urged Shen Rongyue when she saw her slow movements in tidying up her clothes.

Shen Rongyue came to his senses and reluctantly sped up.

No matter how unwilling you are, you have to face the reality...

When he arrived at the gate of the mansion and got on the carriage, he saw that Qin Yueze's face was full of impatience.

"Let's go to the general's mansion immediately!" Before Shen Rongyue sat down, Qin Yueze ordered the guards driving the carriage with a stern face.

Shen Rongyue was stunned.

"Are we going to the General's Mansion today?"

Usually, the spies would send the news that Shen Qingyin went to Bixiyuan, and Qin Yueze would go there.

But I have never seen Qin Yueze go directly to the general's mansion to look for someone.

Even Qin Yueze was afraid of the damn old lady in the General's Mansion.

"Because she was killed by someone..." Qin Yueze looked worried.

Jingzhao Prefecture just received a report from the General's Mansion. The news has spread. Someone attempted to kill the General's wife outside the city last night, causing several casualties in the General's Mansion...

Shen Rongyue was stunned.

Unexpectedly, besides myself, there are other people who want to kill Shen Qingyin...

The horse neighed and the carriage quickly left Prince Kang's palace.

"Bang!" In the teahouse diagonally opposite Prince Kang's Mansion, Chu Xinglan suddenly smashed the teacup in his hand.

Untrustworthy man!

He clearly held her in his arms yesterday and swore that he would never take Shen out easily in the future, but he did it again today!

I really don't know how much true love this man has for her, and how much false love he has for her...

Thinking of what the two passers-by said the day before, I felt even more sad and my eyes turned red.

If the prince of Prince An's Mansion had not already married a wife, and the wife was the daughter of Grand Tutor Kong, who had always been at odds with the Prime Minister's Mansion, she would not have chosen to settle for second best and associate with Qin Yueze.

No matter how you look at it, the Crown Prince of Prince An's Mansion has a greater chance of inheriting the throne in the future.

After all, the prince of Prince An's Mansion is the oldest among the emperor's sons and nephews, and Prince An's Mansion has far more power in the court than Prince Kang's Mansion.

She wronged herself.

But Qin Yueze is different.

In private, he often asked the Prime Minister's Office to place influence in the court for him and to gather information.

She also said that she was afraid that the emperor would be wary of the relationship between the two families, so for the time being she could only interact with her in secret.

That's all.

As the daughter of the prime minister, she still understands the need for expediency.

But now, Qin Yueze was willing to deceive herself for a humble Shen family member. She couldn't stand it!

"Let's go!" Chu Xinglan left angrily with his followers.

The General's Mansion.

When Fan'er heard the report from the gate that Prince Kang and his concubine came to visit, she frowned instinctively.

"Here they are again. They are so annoying. Ma'am, I will go and chase them away for you!"

Shen Qingyin waved his hand and told them to go back to the door.

"No need for that. Go and invite Prince Kang to the front yard to entertain him, and let the concubine come into the house to visit."

Faner was stunned.

"Have you forgotten what we said the day before yesterday?" Shen Qingyin reminded her.

Faner slapped her head and said, "Look at my memory. I actually forgot!"

Two days ago, word spread that Prince Kang doted on his concubine and would take her out to relax and comfort her even if she made a mistake.

But at that time, the original plan was to spread the news and lure the two to the suburbs.

Now they have brought the two of them to the general's mansion.

Qin Yueze was quickly invited into the front yard and served tea by a maid.

When Shen Rongyue heard that Shen Qingyin asked her to visit Chunnuan Pavilion, she felt that she had heard it wrong.
