After she finished speaking, Song Lanyan turned around and looked at her, her lilac-colored cloak swaying in a graceful arc in the air.

Shen Qiyin narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly.

She stepped forward.

Xianglan was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed.

She was a little confused.

How come Miss Song is here?

Xianglan was not so naive as to really believe that Shen Mengyin was resting here because she was not feeling well, but she thought that the person waiting for their second young lady would be a man. By then, a large group of people would rush out from nowhere and falsely accuse their second young lady of having an affair with someone.

Or maybe some kind of aphrodisiac incense was lit in the attic, and when the second young lady passed out, a wild man would take advantage of her, and then a bunch of people would jump out to witness this scene.

In short, it doesn’t matter what method you use, but there is only one ultimate goal.

That is to plot against the innocence of their second young lady!

Xianglan thought she had guessed it almost right, but she was actually totally off.

Not to mention her, even Shen Qiyin didn't expect it.

"A play prepared for me?" Shen Qiyin frowned slightly, "I'm sorry I don't understand what Miss Song means."

"It's okay." Song Lanyan smiled and motioned for her to sit down and relax: "You'll know when you see it."

They sat near the window, which had a gap that allowed them to take in the scenery outside.

Shen Qiyin understood.

No wonder she chose this place to meet me.

Firstly, it was just like when he stood in the pavilion and watched Shen Cang catch Li Gui and Aunt Zhou committing adultery, because of the good view.

Secondly, this library seems to be located in a remote area, but if we ignore the route designed to accommodate the scenery and just count directly from the two points, it is not particularly far from anywhere.

Song Lanyan poured a cup of tea for Shen Qiyin and said, "I have long wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with you like this, but I have never found the right opportunity."

"Girl, you can say whatever you want to say."

"No hurry." Song Lanyan took a sip of tea and said, "My lord, you haven't seen my sincerity yet. Even if I tell you, I'm afraid you won't believe it easily. It's better to wait until you see the gift I give you before we talk."

Since the other party said so, Shen Qiyin didn't urge him any further.

The two of them drank tea in silence without saying much, and the atmosphere was strangely harmonious.

until--

"Here it comes." Song Lanyan tilted her head and looked out the window, her voice containing a hint of smile.

Shen Qiyin followed her gaze and saw a group of people hurriedly heading to the warm room not far away. Some of them were being carried away by servants. No one knew what was going on.

Xianglan kept looking at it, afraid of missing even the slightest detail.

Song Lanyan noticed her movements and explained patiently, "That's not the point."

After all, if a few people didn’t eat the wrong things and became unwell, how could we lead as many people as possible to that place?

Since there was more than one person suffering from unbearable abdominal pain, they naturally could not be allowed to rest in one place, so Song Chen ordered people to place them in rooms for rest.

But after opening the door of one of the rooms, the servant who was accompanying him suddenly cried out in great surprise, then retreated in panic and bumped into Song Chen.

"Second Young Master..." The little maidservant knelt on the ground, looking like she was about to cry.

The noise was quite loud and naturally attracted the attention of those around him.

In addition to the servants in the Marquis' Mansion who were responsible for carrying people, there were also attendants around the ill young men and women, as well as a few good friends who followed them.

Song Chen frowned: "What's wrong?"

"Inside, inside..."

She was trembling and couldn't utter a complete sentence.

Song Chen lost his patience and simply ignored her, walking past her into the room.

After only a few steps, he suddenly stopped.

His good friend followed him in and when he saw the scene in the room, he gasped.

I saw three people lying on the low couch.

One man and two women.

The man was Song Huai who had not been seen for a long time.

One of the women was Shen Mengyin who had just left the table.

The other one is Xie Qing, who will marry Song Chen soon!

Song Huai was surrounded by women on both sides, with his mouth wide open with two missing front teeth, reeking of alcohol, and sleeping soundly.

On the other hand, Xie Qing and Shen Mengyin both had varying degrees of injuries on their faces and foreheads. Rather than being asleep or drugged, it looked more like they were knocked unconscious.

Needless to say, the culprit is most likely the lustful Song Huai.

Song Chen didn't know whether it was simply because he was disappointed with Xie Qing or because Xie Qing had also suffered greatly from him, but he rushed to the couch with murderous intent and dragged Song Huai down.

Now that it is the beginning of winter, the weather is getting colder.

Song Huai had just woken up dimly as soon as he got out of the warm bed. Now he fell naked on the cold brick floor and woke up completely.

"Second brother?"

Before he could finish his words, Song Chen kicked him in the stomach. He huddled up in pain and said, "Brother, why is this happening? Why did you hit me all of a sudden?"

"Why do you still have the nerve to ask? Look at the good things you have done!"

The two of them were making quite loud noises, and the door was open, so cold wind blew in, and the two people on the couch woke up.

How to describe how complicated their feelings were when they saw each other?

First, doubt:

Why is she here?

Then there is the joy:

Fortunately, the other person was a woman.

Finally, there is the horror:

Why are there so many people watching?!

Shen Mengyin instinctively pulled the quilt to cover her body, but found that although her clothes were messy, they were still intact. However, this discovery did not make her feel relieved.

Her hands and feet were cold, and even her breathing became difficult.

How could this be?

how so!

According to the plan that Song Lanyan and I had discussed, shouldn't the person lying on the couch at this moment be Shen Qiyin? Why did it become me and Xie Qing?

Like Shen Mengyin, Xie Qing was also filled with despair and suspicion.

After she left the table, a little maid brought her here and said that Song Chen asked her to wait for him here, so she did not doubt it.

Who knows——

During the process, someone grabbed her neck from behind and slammed her head against the wall, and then she fainted.

When I woke up again, I saw this scene.

At that moment, Xie Qing had only two words in her mind: It's over!

Completely finished!

She had worked hard to marry Song Chen so that she could support him to become the prince of the Marquis of Jianning in the future. But now she was caught hanging out with Song Chen's brother, and all her plans were in vain!

"Someone deliberately..."

"I was framed!"

Before Xie Qing could finish her words, she was interrupted excitedly by Shen Mengyin.

"I, I don't even know this gentleman. I don't know what's going on."

Song Huai didn't know whether he was still drunk or for some other reason, but he retorted unhappily: "This young master is so famous, how could you not recognize him?"

Song Chen closed his eyes tightly, grabbed the clothes handed to him by the servant and threw them at Song Huai: "Put on your clothes!"

Song Huai didn't dare to breathe, and hurriedly put on his clothes tremblingly.

Song Chen took a step forward, lowered his head slightly, and said, "Two girls, I will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you an explanation."

"It's my brother's responsibility. He can't escape it at all!"

After hearing this, Xie Qing suddenly had a thought in her mind.

If her and Song Huai were caught having an affair, she would have to marry him, and in that case, her engagement with Song Chen would be invalid.

Could it be that what happened today was actually his work?

Thinking of this possibility, Xie Qing felt as if the blood in her body had frozen, and a chill ran up from the soles of her feet.

But she couldn't understand, if Song Chen designed the scandal between her and Song Huai in order to escape the marriage, then what about Shen Mengyin?

Coincidentally, Shen Mengyin herself didn’t understand it either.

But she had a hunch that it was Shen Qiyin who did it!

Apart from her, no one else has a motive.

Therefore, even though her reputation was ruined, she had no time to be sad. Instead, she was thinking about dragging Shen Qiyin into the water, otherwise she would not be willing to die!

So Shen Mengyin threw as much dirty water on Shen Qiyin as possible, and cried helplessly: "I was not feeling well just now, and I clearly asked the maid to call my second sister over. Where is my second sister?"

When she mentioned this, everyone just remembered that it seemed to be true.

"That's strange. I really didn't see Miss Shen Er."

"Hey, what do you think? Could it be that Second Miss Shen took advantage of Fourth Miss's discomfort to plot against her?"

"That shouldn't be the case. I don't think she is that kind of person."

"You can't tell a person's heart from his face."

……

Feng Ruoying listened to those people's discussions and became as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

She had come to look for Shen Qiyin because she saw that she had not returned yet and was worried that something had happened to her. However, she did not expect to witness such a farce.

Seeing that Shen Mengyin was reminding everyone in her words and deeds that it was Shen Qiyin who harmed her, she wanted to help defend herself, but she didn't know where Shen Qiyin was at the moment, and she was afraid that if she lied, she would end up making things worse, so she was very anxious.

But the more Shen Mengyin talked, the more it seemed to be true: "No, no... My second sister would never treat me like that. I didn't provoke her, so she has no reason to hurt me..."
