953 Encounter (4)
In her previous life, she and Xie Jingxing did not meet, nor did she come to Long Ye with Xie Jingxing. Xie Jingxing did not go to Ming Qi’s tribute banquet either. Shen Miao was Fu Xiuyi’s wife, and Xie Jingxing was unconscious in Long Ye at this very moment. Consort Mei and her brother, who were passing by, saved him. If Consort Mei was originally from the Daliang Dynasty, how did she end up becoming the favorite consort of Fu Xiuyi? Could it be that she was also a spy?
Just like how Xie Jingxing, the prince of the Daliang Dynasty, became the young marquis of the Marquis of Lin’an in the capital of Ming Qi. Could Consort Mei be a spy sent by the Daliang Dynasty too?
However, if that was the case, Consort Mei didn’t have to give birth to Fu Sheng for Fu Xiuyi and even made Fu Sheng the crown prince.
She frowned more and more. What made her most afraid was whether Consort Mei and Xie Jingxing were allies in her previous life. If Consort Mei was sent to Ming Qi by the Daliang Dynasty’s royal family, which caused Fu Ming and Wanyu to die indirectly, how was she supposed to live with Xie Jingxing in the future?

As she was deep in thought, Shen Miao did not even know when the water in the wooden bucket had turned cold. Jingzhe was worried and came over to knock on the door to call her. Shen Miao came back to her senses with a start. When she touched the water again, it was surprisingly cold. She wiped her body, put on her clothes, and went out. The first person she saw was Luo Tan.
Luo Tan leaned forward and asked, “Little Cousin, do you not like Li Mei?”
Shen Miao said, “Why do you say that?”
“You’ve always been very polite to people, but you treated Li Mei very strangely, just like how you treated Chang Zaiqing back then.” Luo Tan thought for a moment and said, “That Chang Zaiqing was not a good person in the end. Could it be that Li Mei is not a good person either? Speaking of which, I feel that compared to Chang Zaiqing, you disliked Li Mei even more.”
As Shen Miao dried her hair, she said indifferently, “If I say that she’s a bad person, will you believe me?”
“Is she really a bad person?” Luo Tan was stunned. “But she doesn’t look like a bad person.”
Shen Miao shook her head. No matter what she said, without evidence, no one would believe her. She said, “Go back.”
Luo Tan was stunned. “Aren’t you going to see Prince Rui?”
Shen Miao paused and said, “I’m very tired today and want to sleep early.”
“Alright.” Luo Tan nodded. “You’ve been tiring yourself out these past few days. You’ve lost a lot of weight. Rest well. I won’t disturb you anymore.” After thinking for a moment, she added, “If you think there’s anything wrong with Li Mei, you can tell me. In the Daliang Dynasty, we can only rely on each other.”
After Luo Tan left, Shen Miao’s expression turned cold. She said to Jingzhe, “Call Mo Qing over.”
It was rare for her to be so serious. Today, she actually had a faint killing intent, making Jingzhe and Gu Yu not dare to even ask. Without a word, they went out to look for Mo Qing.
Mo Qing quickly walked in. Shen Miao asked someone to close the door tightly. Without anyone around, she asked Mo Qing, “Where are the siblings living now?”
Mo Qing thought that Shen Miao had something important to instruct him. Hearing this, he was slightly stunned and said, “They live in an empty room in the side courtyard.”
“Kill them for me,” Shen Miao said.
Mo Qing was stunned.
Mo Qing knew better than anyone the situation Shen Miao was in. It was no exaggeration to say she was walking on thin ice everyday. From time to time, people would scheme against her and shoot arrows at her. In such an environment, Shen Miao had never let anyone take advantage of her. Many of the things she instructed Mo Qing to do were retaliative. However, this was the first time she said “kill them for me”.
