Chapter 288: Dead


Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios


The border of the Wu Kingdom had been peaceful for so many years because of the Ghost-Faced General.


There was no news at all.


“Who knows what happened with the higher ups? It has nothing to do with us.”


“I know, I know. I have a distant relative who just returned from the capital a while ago. He said that the situation in our Wu Kingdom might change.” The person who spoke lowered his voice and pointed at the sky.


As soon as he finished speaking, the others gasped and stopped talking.

!!

Ghost Face and the others pa.s.sed through the town and met someone who was also riding towards them.


When the man saw them from afar, he quickly stopped his horse and shouted, “Young General.”


Grimace waved his hand to stop the people behind him. Only the people around his adoptive father would call him that.


“How’s Foster Father?” he asked coldly.


“General Yan suffered from an a.s.sa.s.sination attempt and is still unconscious. Moreover, His Majesty is critically ill…”


Everyone understood what he meant.


Once the emperor fell, those princes would definitely not be able to sit still. At that time, there would be another bloodbath.


Most importantly, General Yan had always supported the crown prince. Now that he was a.s.sa.s.sinated, it made people think deeply.


“The most important thing now is that nothing can happen to Foster Father.” Ghost Face tightened his grip on the reins and galloped out on his horse.


However, at that very moment.


All of this was too much of a coincidence.


At night, a figure went out of the back door of the Shen residence and disappeared into the night.


Soon, another person walked out and followed the person in front of him from afar. He only returned the way he came when he saw the person enter the Liu residence.


After hearing South Wind’s report, Song Jingchen frowned. Did Mo Yuan really have ulterior motives?


However, what did it have to do with the Liu family? According to his investigation, the Liu family was just an ordinary merchant family.


South Wind thought for a moment and recounted everything that had happened during the day.


Song Jingchen frowned and waved him off.


He roughly guessed why Mo Yuan went to the Liu residence.


After returning to the room and looking at the sleeping person, Song Jingchen sighed. This girl was really magnanimous. She didn’t say a word when she returned.


Shen Yijia was worried that Lord Zhou would really die. The next morning, she asked Mo Yuan to prescribe real medicine and send it over. She did not forget to remind her to collect more money.


Song Jingchen scooped up a bowl of porridge and pushed it over. He said in amus.e.m.e.nt, “Are you so afraid that he’ll die?”


Shen Yijia glanced at him guiltily. She knew that she could not hide what she had done yesterday from him. She pursed her lips. “I didn’t want to cause you trouble.”


“Don’t be afraid. So what if he’s dead? At most, we’ll get Shangguan Han to write a confession letter.”


Shen Yijia’s eyes lit up. “Really?” She could play as she pleased?


Song Jingchen was silent. He said that because he didn’t want her to worry, but he didn’t mean to encourage her actions.


“Hurry up and eat. The porridge is getting cold.”


Shen Yijia giggled. She knew it wouldn’t be that simple.


However, it was not easy to play with patients. Wasn’t there still one who wasn’t sick? He wouldn’t die so easily, right?


In the Fortune Inn, Eunuch Li s.h.i.+vered inexplicably.


Seeing this, Qi Shou quickly took the cloak and put it on him. He could not help but complain again.


This time, he had learned his lesson and did not dare to talk about the big shots again.


“This place is too dilapidated. That shopkeeper even said that other inns have everything here. Could it be that the rooms in other inns in Xunyang City are also as leaky as this?”


“Why didn’t they prepare a charcoal basin? Look at how cold you are.” Qi Shou went on and on.


“Also, what is up with the food? They said that there’s no food provided, so we paid extra for it. They should be the ones preparing the dishes, right?”


“In the end, they only gave us wild vegetables and charged us 15 taels of silver a day. Are they taking us for fools?”


Eunuch Li glanced at him. That wasn’t the reason. In Shopkeeper Hu’s words, “Our Xunyang City is so poor. His Highness personally brought people to the deep mountains to find those wild vegetables.”


“It’s already good enough to have wild vegetables to eat. How many people outside can’t even eat wild vegetables? As a person, you have to cherish your blessings.”


This time, Eunuch Li did not reprimand him. He was still a little angry. When he woke up in the middle of the night from the cold, he was also furious.


After Song Jingchen went to work, Shen Yijia called Mo Yuan and Qian Youde over to discuss how to deal with Eunuch Li.


Mo Yuan was just a bonus. Qian Youde was the main force, because she felt that Qian Youde would definitely be able to come up with many shameless ideas.


Shen Yijia didn’t have a good impression of Eunuch Li. Back then, he was the one who sent the b.l.o.o.d.y Song Jingchen back to the residence. He even brought along some bullsh*t imperial edict.


As soon as they finished speaking, Thirty Thousand led the dazed Liu Piaopiao in.


Seeing that the man from yesterday was also there, Liu Piaopiao hesitated and did not enter.


Seeing her like this, Shen Yijia immediately understood. A young lady from a wealthy family did not like outsiders.


She waved his hand and told Qian Youde to get lost first.


Qian Youde was speechless.


Fine then, he left.


With no outsiders around, Liu Piaopiao entered the reception pavilion and stood in front of Shen Yijia, looking straight at her without saying anything. She did not call her Sister Jiajia as affectionately as she usually did.


Shen Yijia tilted her head and realized that Liu Piaopiao was alone. She did not even see Cai Yun, who was always following her.


“Did she punish her badly after going back yesterday?” she thought.


“What’s wrong?” Shen Yijia asked with a frown after waiting for a long time.


Liu Piaopiao bit her lower lip and two tears fell from the corners of her eyes. “Cai Yun is gone.”


“Huh?” Shen Yijia was stunned.


Liu Piaopiao closed her eyes and looked at Shen Yijia in disappointment. “I told you yesterday that I would punish her. When I returned, I gave her the indenture to get her out of the residence.”


“It’s just that it was already late evening, so I allowed her to stay for another night. Why did you kill her?”


She knew Cai Yun well. She cherished her life more than anyone else. It was impossible for her to commit suicide.


It was very likely that someone had created an illusion. No matter how she thought about it, Shen Yijia was the only one who had conflicts with Cai Yun and had the ability to kill her without anyone knowing.


Because Cai Yun was her eldest maidservant in the Liu residence and had grown up with her, her life was only slightly worse than hers.


Liu Piaopiao felt that letting her leave the residence was already a heavy punishment.


Unexpectedly, she lost her life in just one night.


She did not expect Shen Yijia to be such a person who disregarded human lives. She was completely different from her image of a chivalrous person.


Apart from feeling sad about Cai Yun’s death, she was also disappointed in Shen Yijia. She felt that she had fallen in love with the wrong person.


Shen Yijia’s expression darkened. “Are you saying that I killed Cai Yun?” she thought.


If she really wanted to kill someone, she would not have let her off yesterday. Besides, there was no need for her to hide anything.


Liu Piaopiao insisted that she was the one who did it. It was impossible for her not to be angry. She did not want to explain, but she was unwilling to take the blame for others.


She was about to say that it wasn’t her when she saw someone standing in front of her.


Shen Yijia’s eyelids twitched. “Mo Yuan?”


Mo Yuan looked at Liu Piaopiao expressionlessly. “Miss didn’t kill her.”
