The subordinate who passed on the news reported, "It was brought back by that girl, An Jing, the night that the young lady left."
After An Jing was sent to Grand Dominance, she had nowhere to run. Under Luo Lingwei's provocation, she ran into Ye Feian, who had also been set up by Luo Lingwei. Ye Feian saw that An Jing was a ruthless person and was even able to ruthlessly destroy his face. Thus, he decided to keep An Jing within a short period of time.
On the way back to the capital, An Jing had heard about the conflict between his family and the Prime Minister's Estate. Besides, he had nothing better to do at home, so he decided to change his appearance to go to Ye Feian.
She was, after all, a miss from the capital, and An Jing was far more familiar with the capital's terrain and personnel than the villagers from the sixteen prefectures in Shan Yang.
At first, most of Ye Feian's subordinates didn't think much of An Jing and thought that a half-grown girl who only knew how to enjoy the flowers and play the zither would understand. It was only when the capital had encountered a few nails that had been easily dealt with by An Jing, only then did they know of her strength.
Ye Feian initially wanted to buy a favor for the Minister of Imperial House, but he was helped greatly.
Ye Feian was a little interested. He nodded and signaled his subordinate to continue.
Someone who could get An Jing to personally act must be an important figure.
Shen Ruo Lang seemed to have thought of something, and his brows twitched: "Perhaps Your Highness has forgotten that Miss An was talking to Shen Zhangze's daughter the night that you were ambushed."
Shen Changze's daughter?
Ye Feian had a slight impression of this. "Shen Qiu Bai?"
He seemed to recall that the sudden fall of his royal uncle's heart was also related to this Shen Qiu Bai.
"It seems that Shen Changze has a daughter who's also very thoughtful."
Ye Feian sighed and ordered his men to bring them up.
"Bring it up for me to take a look."
Shen Qiubai was the eldest miss of the Golden Jade Pavilion and had never experienced such hardships before. She was always worried about An Jing's revenge on a whim, so she couldn't sleep at night.
When Shen Qiu Bai was mercilessly dragged over by his subordinate, she had become extremely haggard, no longer having the noble and prideful attitude of the young miss from before.
Ye Feian sat on the spiritual altar as he looked coldly at Shen Qiubai.
Her face was covered with a layer of white powder. Her face was streaked with dust. Her dress was torn. Who knew who had cut off the gold jade pearls on her shoes and taken them away? They were riddled with holes.
She was scared out of her wits. Anyone who saw her would panic like a frightened bird.
Ye Feian raised an eyebrow in interest. "Who does this duke think it is? It turns out to be Second Miss Shen."
Without a doubt, Shen Qiubai's panic had successfully pleased Ye Feian.
According to the news from the spies in the palace, the reason why Ye Feihan had used Andromalius to poach him was because of that old fox Shen Changze's idea.
Ye Feian suddenly revealed a warm and frightening smile, looking especially horrifying in the candlelight that was set off behind him.
He quietly explained to Shen Qiubai and laughed after a while, "Ah Su is dead. How do you think I will settle this debt with you?"
Shen Qiubai was used to seeing Ye Feian's bloodshot eyes these two days, but upon seeing his warm smile that was like the spring wind, he subconsciously shrunk his body, not daring to make a sound.
It really was boring.
She had thought that this Shen Qiu Bai would have some of her father's demeanor, but he was just an empty shell.
Ye Feian sternly questioned Shen Ruo Lang, "Why didn't you bring her to see me earlier?"
Who didn't know that if she died, you would slaughter the entire Imperial City to accompany her in death? Aren't you going to cut off his head and drag him out to Shen Changze?
Shen Ruo Lang clenched his fist and coughed twice before saying: "Miss Shen suffered a fright. I saw that it was still useful so I passed her to An Jing to guard her for two days."
Ye Feian let out a cold snort. Seeing the green color that was difficult to hide on Shen Qiu Bai's pale face made him feel slightly satisfied.
"May I trouble Miss Shen to write a letter to your father. This King has a deal to discuss with her... "
Shen Qiu Bai retorted loudly, "Don't even think about it. My father's loyalty will definitely not be shaken by your coercion! "
"Rivers and mountains? This Jiang Shan's surname is Ye now, it doesn't matter who does it. "
Ye Feian laughed at Shen Qiu Bai's lack of interest and waved his hand. "Take her down and let An Jing watch as she finishes writing the letter. You don't have to tell me about such a small matter. "
When Shen Qiu Bai was brought out of the mourning hall, the autumn wind blew onto his back, causing him to feel ice-cold.
Ye Feian, there will be a day when I will repay you ten times or a hundred times the suffering I have endured today!
Someone shoved from behind: "What are you dawdling for! Hurry up and leave! "
Shen Qiubai staggered and staggered. She stood up, massaged her reddened wrists and quickened her pace.
Now that he was under someone else's roof, he had no choice but to lower his head.
An Jing, who had been waiting at the side, came over with a rope. "This is a criminal. What if he runs away?"
She first reprimanded the soldiers in charge of escorting Shen Qiu Bai, then she personally tied the rope around Shen Qiu Bai's wrist and neck. She used all her strength, so much so that she soon strangled Shen Qiubai to the point that he couldn't even breathe.
She had to stoop.
An Jing carefully tied Shen Qiubai up, then raised her voice and ordered the guard responsible for guarding her, "This girl has a deep mind, if you are not careful, you will be bewitched by her. You must be careful not to talk to her. "
The two soldiers did not know Shen Qiu Bai, upon hearing what An Jing said, they could not help but size him up again and again with shock and suspicion in their eyes.
She clearly looked like a young miss who was raised in a room. Why was it like what Miss An Jing said?
Even though they were still puzzled, they still hurriedly replied, "Yes."
A hint of a smile appeared on Shen Qiu Bai's lips. She looked at Shen Qiu Bai provocatively, "Why are you so scared?"
An Jing's face instantly turned cold, she raised her hand and viciously slapped Shen Qiu Bai in the face.
Shen Qiubai was so shocked that blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.
She knew that her stratagem had worked. Mirror had been destroyed, she had destroyed it.
That annoying cold arrogance had been completely smashed into the ground by her.
Shen Qiubai laughed sinisterly, his voice was like the ghostly song of a night shift, unstoppable as it drilled into An Jing's ears.
"You're just scared! You're afraid that I'll be like before, that you'll never see me again, how beautiful you looked when you were trapped among the bandits. So despairing! "It's such a pity, you've met a bunch of bandits who don't care about the fairer sex …"
He clenched his fists and endured the surging fury in his heart as he turned around to leave.
Watching An Jing leave in a sorry state, Shen Qiubai heaved a sigh of relief.
A round of applause came from behind him. Shen Qiubai turned around to face Luo Lingxiao's mocking gaze.
Luo Lingxiao was standing under a tree not far away, holding onto his stomach, watching the argument. She praised, "Young lady's methods are really good."
"Is that so?" Shen Qiubai scoffed, "Prince Bao's wife listening to him is also a good move."
