Therefore, the evidence that Shen Yuan gave Fu Xiuyi should be about Shen Xin not following Emperor Wen Hui’s order to massacre the city.
This matter could be said to be big or small. However, in the current situation, the royal family wanted to take back the Shen family’s military power, so how could they let go of this opportunity?
Things had beco extrely tricky.
Shen Miao clenched her fists and slowly cald herself down. Now was not the worst ti. Although the royal family wanted to deal with the Shen family, it was only because they wanted to regain their military power. If they targeted the Shen family at this ti, it would inevitably arouse the dissatisfaction of the other big families. The royal family was too cunning to take the risk.
What should she do now?
The few people in the room looked at Shen Miao’s changing expression and were puzzled. Shen Miao suddenly stood up and said, “I’m going out for a while.”
“Ah?” Gu Yu was stunned. “Miss, leaving the mansion at this ti will attract a lot of attention.”
“I’m in a bad mood and want to find my friend to talk to.” Shen Miao’s eyes turned cold. “What’s wrong with that? Let’s go.”
Mo Qing naturally had no objections to Shen Miao’s decision. Moreover, in his heart, he was absolutely convinced by Shen Miao. He knew that Shen Miao had her own way of doing things. Seeing Shen Miao like this, he felt a little relieved and said, “I’ll make the arrangents.”
Seeing Mo Qing like this, Jingzhe and Gu Yu did not say anything else. They asked Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang to stay in the mansion and wait for news while they went out with Shen Miao.
Shen Miao’s going out naturally puzzled the people in the Shen family. When soone ca to ask, the maids only told them that Shen Miao was going to find Feng Anning. Feng Anning and Shen Miao were considered friends, so it was understandable that Shen Miao wanted to talk to her. Therefore, no one was suspicious.
After leaving the mansion, Mo Qing drove towards the Feng family. After driving past the alley and confirming that no one was following them, Shen Miao said, “To the Su family.”
“The Su family?” Gu Yu was stunned. “Which Su family?”
“Su Yu, the Earl of Pinan.”
Mo Qinwas very familiar with the roads in the capital and knew where the mansions of the nobles were. Without even asking for directions, he drove to another direction.
Jingzhe and Gu Yu wanted to ask sothing, but they did not dare to. On one hand, they knew that Shen Miao had an idea, but on other hand, even as servants, they knew that in the imperial court, the Shen family was enemies with the Xie family, and the Su family, the Earl of Pingnan, were in the sa boat with the Xie family. The Su family and the Shen family were naturally incompatible. Why would they help the Shen family?
At this mont, there was another person sitting in Su Mingfeng’s room. That person was dressed in a purple and gold robe and had a casual and lazy smile on his face. Su Mingfeng said anxiously, “What’s going on? Why did you request to go to war?”
“The capital is too boring. I want to go to the northern border to have fun,” Xie Jingxing said.
“Have fun?” Su Mingfeng looked at him, his usually gentle face showing anger. “Do you know what kind of place the Northern border is? Now that no one dares to fight the Xiongnu head-on, why are you going to join in the fun?” Seeing that Xie Jingxing did not take his words to heart, Su Mingfang softened her tone. “I know you’re unhappy that your father helped Xie Changchao and Xie Changwu beco an official, but you don’t have to express your displeasure like this. This matter is not trivial. Although you’re skilled in martial arts, the terrain of the North border is complicated. You’ve never been there before… Jingxing, you can’t go.”
“Su Mingfeng.” Xie Jingxing said with a smile, “His Majesty has already granted this chance. Do you think I can go back on my words now?”
Su Mingfeng was stunned for a mont, and then a look of despair appeared on his face. It was true that this matter was already a done deal, and there was no room for negotiation even if Xie Jingxing had a change of mind.
