Spring in the East Palace

Chapter 314 Looking for a scapegoat

Although Qiao Suwan rarely interacts with the Shen family, it doesn't mean that Qiao Suwan doesn't know about these little tricks.

Shen Muyin naturally knew these principles.

From the last life to the present, Shen Muyin knew how cautious the Shen family was. Otherwise, the Shen family would not have survived until now.

"Don't worry, I know all these principles." Shen Muyin responded calmly.

Qiao Suwan nodded: "But you don't have to think too much, the fox will always show its tail."

Shen Muyin nodded, but Qiao Suwan didn't say anything.

Suddenly, the corner of Shen Muyin's eyes fell on the door curtain of the carriage, and at that moment, she saw the carriage of Prince Xuan's Mansion.

Subconsciously, Shen Muyin lifted the door curtain, and sure enough, the carriage passing by was from Prince Xuan's mansion.

Probably because this carriage belonged to the Prince of Pingxi's Palace, so under such circumstances, the carriage of the Prince of Xuan's Palace also lifted the door curtain.

Although the two royal palaces have had less contact in recent years, their relationship is still very good.

Shen Muyin thought it was Princess Xuanhe, but the moment the door curtain was lifted, she saw Nangong Sheng.

Nangong Sheng's eyes fell calmly on Shen Muyin, without any ripples.

Shen Muyin didn't say anything either, just nodded slightly.

Then Shen Muyin let down the door curtain, thinking about Nangong Sheng's every move in her mind.

So calm, as if nothing had happened.

Shen Muyin couldn't describe this feeling. Sometimes, the calmer you are, the more problems you have.

People who panic have completely exposed their thoughts and are relatively safe.

But everyone around Shen Muyin spoke very highly of Nangong Sheng.

Even Lu Nanhuai had doubts, but if he had no evidence, Lu Nanhuai could not make any big moves.

Therefore, Nangong Sheng has always been a subtle existence.

But in that moment just now, Shen Muyin didn’t know if it was her illusion, she really saw murderous intent in Nangong Sheng’s eyes.

Very faint, just a flash.

Even at this speed, it is so fast that people cannot catch it.

"That was the carriage from Prince Xuan's palace." Qiao Suwan also noticed it.

Shen Muyin came back to his senses and nodded: "Yes. I saw the Prince Consort."

"Su Jin has found a good husband. Lord Nangong only has eyes for Su Jin. And even when he goes out for social events, he is always clean." Qiao Suwan said with a smile.

"Her Majesty also has a very good impression of Lord Nangong." Shen Muyin didn't know if she was testing him or something else.

Qiao Suwan nodded and did not deny: "A few years ago, Prince Xuan brought Su Jin and Lord Nangong to Jiangnan to see me and the prince. At that time, I met Lord Nangong. He handled everything very well and always put Su Jin first."

Qiao Suwan was recalling her impression of Nangong Sheng back then.

Shen Muyin was listening, and her impression of Nangong Sheng was similar to what she usually heard.

"Muyin?" Qiao Suwan suddenly called Shen Muyin, "What are you thinking about?"

Shen Muyin shook his head: "No. I just think that Lord Nangong is too perfect. I'm afraid there is no other such a perfect person in Yan State. He doesn't make any mistakes and takes every step steadily."

Qiao Suwan listened and smiled: "That's true."

Shen Muyin didn't say much and became quiet.

But she knew very clearly that if this person was Nangong Sheng, then it would be even more difficult for her to move forward.

Because there won't be anyone around who believes what you say.

They would even bring in people they care about. If anything happened to Nangong Sheng, Prince Xuan's Mansion would not just let it go.

Thinking about it, Shen Muyin felt a headache.

"You don't like Lord Nangong?" Qiao Suwan guessed something at once.

Shen Muyin smiled and said vaguely: "I have never met Lord Nangong, so I can't say I like or hate him."

"That's right." Qiao Suwan nodded, "There will always be a chance in the future."

"Okay." Shen Muyin responded.

This topic was brought up, but Nangong Sheng's narrow eyes were still in Shen Muyin's mind and could not be dispelled.

It was the same. Shen Muyin remained calm until the carriage stopped at the gate of Shen's Mansion.

"Now that we're here, I won't take you in." Qiao Suwan nodded.

"Thank you, Madam, for personally sending me back." Shen Muyin responded, "I am grateful for what happened today."

"You're welcome." Qiao Suwan smiled, "If Your Highness knew that I would watch someone die without helping him, I would be in trouble. After all, Your Highness's temper is the most difficult to serve in the entire Yan Kingdom."

Shen Muyin also smiled silently, and then she didn't stay for long, got off the carriage quietly, and walked towards the Shen Mansion.

Qiao Suwan was in the carriage, watching Shen Muyin leave, and then asked the driver to return to the Pingxi Palace.

Shen Muyin lowered his brows and looked calm.

But her mind was thinking about how Shen Changsheng would escape this time. In Shen Muyin's opinion, this was already irrefutable evidence.

If he were to look for a scapegoat, who would that scapegoat be?

Shen Muyin couldn't figure it out for a while, but there were many things she couldn't explain from beginning to end about this matter.

Even if she were to live her life again, there are still many things she doesn't understand, and there are too many people involved.

Soon, Shen Muyin fell silent and walked into the Shen Mansion calmly.

Butler Wang came up and said, "Miss, you're back."

Shen Muyin nodded, and Fennel followed him nervously. Shen Muyin didn't say anything, and Fennel didn't ask much either.

Soon, Fennel brought bath water to Shen Muyin and let her take a bath.

"You soak first, I'll be waiting for you outside. Call me anytime you're ready." Fennel said with some distress, "You were wronged in the dungeon yesterday."

"Not bad." Shen Muyin smiled, "Go ahead, don't worry, I'll call you after a while."

"Yes." Fennel retreated quietly.

Shen Muyin closed her eyes. The difference between yesterday's dungeon and the sky prison in her previous life was really huge. So she was just resisting, and she would not be really abused.

After all, they didn't dare to do it before the conviction because they were afraid that they would not be able to explain to the Eastern Palace.

Plus Liao Yong is still here, so nothing serious will happen.

Soon, Shen Muyin no longer thought about what happened in the dungeon yesterday. What remained in his mind was how the Shen family would struggle out of this incident.

But any possible person was ruled out by Shen Muyin.

It seems that there are no more clues.

Thinking of this, Shen Muyin became even quieter. Soon, she stood up. Fennel heard the noise and walked in.

"Miss, I will help you bathe and change clothes." Fennel said respectfully.

Shen Muyin didn't say anything. Fennel quickly changed Shen Muyin's clothes. Shen Muyin suddenly thought of something and looked at Fennel.

"Shen Zhenzhen is not here?" Shen Muyin asked Huixiang.
