As soon as he finished speaking, the tearoom fell into a strange silence. A moment later, Gao Yang smiled and looked at Xie Jingxing. “I think I know who it is. This girl from the Shen family is quite powerful.” Although his smile was gentle, his tone was sharp.
“Actually, I think it’s strange too.” Ji Yushu shivered and scratched his head. “It doesn’t seem to be her first time doing business with All Knowing Scholar. I’ve asked Hong Ling, but she said she’s never seen her before. Our business is only done in secret, and I’m afraid no one in the capital knows about our existence except a few families. How… does she know?”
“This girl is not simple.” Gao Yang thought for a moment and said, “I originally thought that the Shen family was just a stupid bunch that would be eliminated sooner or later. Now it seems that I’m wrong.” He glanced at Xie Jingxing and realized that he was deep in thought. He asked, “What is on your mind?”
Xie Jingxing looked up at Ji Yushu. “Have you agreed?”
“I have to discuss it with you two.” Ji Yushu said, “But I think if we can make the Shen family our connection, given how many troops they have, they can help Third Brother Xie greatly in the future. After all, she doesn’t know that our Exiled Immortal Pawnshop is actually owned by Third Brother.”
The girl surnamed Shen probably did not know that Xie Jingxing would be the one to benefit in the end. However, she could not be blamed, because even Hong Ling, who had been a manager of the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop for many years, did not know about this.
“That being said…” Gao Yang pondered for a moment and continued,” This gamble is too big. If we’re not careful, the information she wants to create will attract the attention of the royal family. We have to be careful. If anything goes wrong, it will be the end for all of us. As for the Shen family, in our original plan, they weren’t part of it anyway.”
“You have a point.” Ji Yushu nodded and looked at Xie Jingxing. “But in the end, we have to listen to what Third Brother has to say about this.
“Agree to this deal.”
As soon as Xie Jingxing said that, Gao Yang frowned and said, “Don’t you need to take some time to think about it?”
“The Shen family is a good chess piece that can be used to our advantage. As for the information she wants to create, it’s targeted at Prince Yu.” Xie Jingxing raised his eyebrows. “Coincidentally, we need to deal with Prince Yu as well, so why not?”
When he said that, the other two were enlightened. Ji Yushu clapped his hands. “That’s right. I almost forgot. She wants to create a rumor about Prince Yu plotting a rebellion. Does the Shen family have a grudge against Prince Yu? Why does that girl want Prince Yu to die?”
Ji Yushu had just returned to the capital and was clueless about what happened while he was gone.
Gao Yang knew the grudge between Shen Miao and Prince Yu, and he couldn’t help but be impressed by Shen Miao. Ordinary girls would definitely be intimidated by the power of Prince Yu. Not only was Shen Miao not afraid, but she was also waiting for an opportunity to counterattack. She was very smart. Prince Yu was backed by the royal family, so she wanted to sow discord between them. If the royal family was suspicious of Prince Yu, he would be done for.
“Agree to this deal.” Xie Jingxing said, “Notify the Chen family as soon as possible.”
