“That’s right, Shen Miao. How can you say that?” Chen Ruoqiu finally spoke, but she still calmly fanned the flame. “You harmed Qing, so how can you blame your uncle? Who told you to do that?”
Chen Ruoqiu thought that if both Shen Miao and the second branch suffered losses, then Shen Yue would have more edges in the Shen family. After all, among the three brothers, Shen Wan was the weakest. If she did not use some tricks, she would eventually end up with nothing.
Ren Wanyun cried and kowtowed to Old Madam Shen. “Look at how much Shen Miao hates us. She harmed Qing, but she still doesn’t admit it. She even wants to tarnish her uncle’s reputation. She’s too haughty and disregards us because her father is a general. Could it be that she was taught to do this by his father? How can a little girl like her know so many vicious methods? Someone must have taught her to do this. How can Shen Xin do this to us…”
Ren Wanyun was crying very loudly, putting herself in a weak position. The more unyielding she was usually, the more weak she looked at this moment, and the more believable her words seemed.
Unfortunately, she made a mistake in involving Shen Xin.
Shen Miao would never allow anyone to harm her father.
She glanced at the people of Rongjing Hall. They were eyeing her covetously. They were a family. They could turn black into white and dead into alive. Surrounded by them, she was like a piece of fat meat that landed in the mouth of a hungry wolf.
However, what could they do with their glib tongues? There were so many women in the harem who could have a glib tongue. How many of them lived and how many of them became fertilizer for the trees in the royal garden?
“Second Aunt keeps saying that I harmed First Sister. Then, can I ask you a few questions?”
Ren Wanyun was stunned. When she met Shen Miao’s clear eyes, for some reason, she felt a little guilty. However, when she saw the people around her, she was relieved. Everyone here was on her side. What ability did Shen Miao have to turn the tables?
“Ask away.” She wiped her tears.
“Alright.” Shen Miao smiled. “Let me ask you. That day, Second Aunt lived next to First Sister and was very close to her. If something happened, how could Second Aunt not hear it?”
Ren Wanyun was stunned.
“If FIrst Sister resisted, she would definitely make a sound. That day, First Sister was covered in wounds, so it was obvious that she had struggled and cried for help. Second Aunt was so close, so why didn’t you hear it? Could it be that you heard it but didn’t come out to help because you were too tired?”
“You…” Ren Wanyun was about to retort when her palms broke out in cold sweat.
“Of course, maybe Second Aunt didn’t hear anything at all. Why? Because First Sister didn’t call for help at all. Why didn’t First Sister call for help? Maybe she knew that person.”
“Nonsense!” At this moment, Ren Wanyun could not help but interrupt Shen Miao sharply.
Chen Ruoqiu and Ren Wanyun almost immediately understood what Shen Miao meant. They looked at Shen Miao with fear in their eyes.
Shen Miao’s words were terrifying. That day, the room where Ren Wanyun stayed was so close to the one Shen Qing stayed in. If Shen Qing called for help, how could her mother not hear it? If she heard it, why didn’t she go and take a look? Could it be that Ren Wanyun did it on purpose? Ren Wanyun naturally wouldn’t deliberately harm her daughter, but at that time, it should have been Shen Miao who lived there. Ren Wanyun had no reason to harm her biological daughter, but it wasn’t impossible for her to harm her niece.
