A trace of gloom flashed across Shen Wan’s eyes. “After splitting up, with Eldest Brother’s military strength and reputation, he will only get better and better. In the end, he will be stronger than us.”

Chen Ruoqiu was shocked when she heard that. She had been married to the Shen family for so many years, so she naturally knew that the Shen family was internally divided. Shen Xin and his wife were not at home, so they did not know, but she and Ren Wanyun knew very well. In the Shen family, Shen Xin and Shen Wan were not from the same mother, so they naturally wouldn’t treat each other with absolute sincerity. The better Shen Xin’s life was, the worse the other two families were. One day, everyone would take up arms against each other, but she did not expect this situation to happen so quickly.

“Master, for the sake of Yue, we must not be suppressed.” Chen Ruoqiu massaged his shoulders. “But how should we deal with them?”

“Now that Brother is wary of us, it won’t be that easy to make a move.” Shen Wan shook his head. “Besides, his soldiers are not ordinary people. It’s even harder to find a chance. We still have to wait for an opportunity.” Shen Wan said, “The most important thing now is to find a good family for Yue.”

Chen Ruoqiu said tentatively, “Master, Prince Ding…”

“Leave Prince Ding for now.” Shen Wan said sternly, “After what happened to Yuan, everyone in the imperial court is trying to not have anything to do with the Shen family, not to mention the princes.”

Chen Ruoqiu nodded. “I understand. Master, rest early.”

The next morning, just as Shen Miao finished eating, she saw Shuang Jiang running in, panting. As soon as she entered the house, she said, “Miss! Something happened!”

“What’s the hurry? Take your time. Don’t startle Miss,” Gu Yu reprimanded. Shuang Jiang stuck out her tongue, but she still couldn’t hold it in and blurted out, “A few days ago, the Jing family set off for Suzhou. Today, the officials said that the Jing family encountered bandits on the way back to Suzhou and were all killed. The officials knew that the Jing family was related to Old Madam, so they came to inform us.” Shuang Jiang patted her chest and said with lingering fear, “Now, the bandits are getting more and more rampant. They actually dared to kill people like this in broad daylight. If they had known this would happen, the Jing family would definitely not come to the capital.”

Shen Miao lowered her eyes. Whether or not the Jing family was killed by bandits was not all that clear. She knew that Sun Tianzheng had always been ruthless and decisive, just like in the imperial court. This matter was caused by Jing Chuchu, and Sun Cainan died. How could Sun Tianzheng be willing to let go of it just like that? Shen Miao believed that if possible, Sun Tianzheng would kill everyone in the Shen family. However, the Shen family was not the Jing family after all.

The Jing family still had the same ending as in her previous life. They died because of Jing Chuchu’s greed. Now that Jing Chuchu was still in Sun Tianzheng’s hands, Sun Tianzheng would not let her die so easily. Living in such despair might be more painful than death.

However, this had nothing to do with her anymore.

Shen Miao said to Gu Yu, “Where’s the thing I want you to prepare?”

Gu Yu said, “It’s in the box, but…” Gu Yu was a little hesitant.” Miss, are you really going to…”

“Go get it,” Shen Miao interrupted her.

An hour later, four people walked out of the west courtyard of the Shen family.

Among the four of them, the one in the lead was a young master with delicate features. He was wearing a moon-white dress and a hat. He was considered handsome, but he was a little short and looked cute. His eyes were big and clear.
