Soon, Shen Muye and Shen Muping and his party returned to the Shen Mansion.

Shen Muping came back suddenly, and the Shen Mansion was suddenly in a great surprise. The oppressive atmosphere that had been shrouded in the Shen Mansion for a long time was swept away like a spring breeze.

Of course, this incident is a surprise for most people, but for a few, it can be regarded as a shock.

Especially when the news suddenly came out in the palace that the second prince suddenly fell ill and died last night, some people in the Shen Mansion couldn't sit still at all.

Shen Muping was very tired after a long journey, and after staying in the eldest lady's room for a while, he went back to his yard to rest. Not long after she went back, the second lady who received the news went over to visit accompanied by Shen Muye.

It's just that as soon as I walked to the gate of the courtyard, I was stopped.

It was not the little family maids who stopped them, but the guards who escorted Shen Muping all the way back before.

"The eldest young master has already fallen asleep, so let's come over later. One of them stepped forward and said expressionlessly towards the second lady and Shen Muye.

The second lady frowned slightly, although she was a little displeased, but she didn't say anything.

"Okay, then we'll come back later. Shen Muye replied, and persuaded his mother to leave.

After the two walked a little farther away, the second lady suddenly asked Shen Muye, "Why haven't these guards seen them in the mansion before?"

Shen Muye replied: "It should be someone from General Xu's side on the side of Su Jiang." ”

The second lady furrowed her brows, and her expression was a little gloomy. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said, "You go and clean up, and we'll get out of the city later." ”

"Out of the city?" Shen Muye was startled, looked at his mother, and asked puzzledly, "Where is my mother going?"

Today, the first day of the Lunar New Year, I should have gone to the temple to worship incense. Now that the eldest young master is back, he should go, what do you say?" said the second lady and glanced at Shen Muye.

Shen Muye's expression suddenly became ugly.

"What are you hesitating about!" Seeing that Shen Muye didn't move, the second lady suddenly snorted.

After Shen Muye glanced at his mother complicatedly, he nodded, "Son, let's go." ”

It didn't take long for Shen Muye and the second lady to pack up their things, take a maidservant, and prepare to go out.

Outside the door, the carriage was ready. Uncle Lian was waiting by the carriage. Seeing Shen Muye accompanying the second lady out of the inside, he stepped forward and asked respectfully, "Where are the second lady and the second young master going?"

The second lady replied with a smile: "Go to the temple outside the city to worship incense." The eldest young master can return safely this time, thanks to the blessing of the Bodhisattva, I will go to pay a gift of incense and make a wish. ”

When Uncle Lian heard this, he frowned slightly, took a step forward, lowered his voice and said cautiously, "I just received the news, I heard that there may be some problems with the death of the second prince, this morning, there have been several incidents inside and outside the city, and it may not be safe for the lady and the young master to go out at this time." Why don't you go a day later?"

"How can it be too late to pay homage to incense!" the second lady immediately refused, "It's okay, I'll let the animal husbandry accompany me, go and come back quickly, there should be no problem." And this temple is not far away, it is only a matter of about an hour to play back and forth, move quickly. ”

After hearing this, Uncle Lian thought about it, and didn't persuade again, so he said, "In this case, the old slave will arrange a few more people for you, so that you can feel more at ease." ”

The second lady didn't refuse this time, and agreed with a smile.

After Uncle Lian saw it, he beckoned, and seven or eight people immediately came, which seemed to have been arranged a long time ago.

After the second lady glanced at the seven or eight people, her expression couldn't help but change slightly, and then she looked at Uncle Lian with a smile and said, "Isn't this too ostentatious?"

Uncle Lian shook his head, "There have been so many things in the house recently, it's better to be safe." ”

"You're right, okay with that. The second lady looked at Uncle Lian, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was faintly stiff.

"Then the lady and young master walk slowly, be careful on the road. Uncle Lian said, then got out of the way, stood aside, and watched with a smile as the second lady and the second young master got into the carriage one after another, and then slowly drove out of the city under the escort of seven or eight guards.

It wasn't until the carriage was out of sight that Uncle Lian withdrew his gaze, and his face no longer had the smile he had before, and it became very gloomy.

The few unknown little maids guarding the door couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed when they saw that the old butler, who always looked like a good person, suddenly seemed to be a different person.

After watching Uncle Lian, who had a gloomy face, hurriedly turned around and entered the gate, the little guys got together and muttered in a low voice.

"What's wrong with Uncle Lian, how do you feel as if the eldest young master is back, and he's not very happy?"

"I don't think it's necessarily because the eldest young master came back, Uncle Lian's expression was a little wrong yesterday. ”

"What's the reason for that?"

"I don't know ...... this."

"Then you talk!"

The few people who were originally muttering together didn't guess why, and they scattered separately in a huff.

After Uncle Lian returned to the house, he went straight to Shen Muping's courtyard.

This will, the guards who had stopped the second lady's mother and son before let Uncle Lian in.

In the room, Shen Muping leaned on the bed, closing his eyes and recuperating. On the small table on the side, there is a light smoke wafting from a carved hollow incense burner, and the elegant agarwood fragrance wafts in the warm spring-like room, which makes people calm.

Uncle Lian walked lightly to the bed, and was about to speak, but Shen Muping opened his mouth first, "Are they leaving?"

"Hmm. Uncle Lian bowed his head and responded.

"Have you arranged it?" asked Shen Muping again.

"Seven good men were arranged to follow, and there was the fourth child outside the city, and he was ambushed with people. Uncle Lian replied respectfully.

After Shen Muping heard this, he was silent. After saying these few words, he never opened his eyes.

Uncle Lian saw that Shen Muping didn't move, so he waited patiently. With a slightly stiff body, standing slightly humbly on the side of the bed, with low eyebrows and lowered eyes, it was a different posture from before in front of the second lady and the second young master.

After a while, Shen Muping suddenly asked again, "Father and third brother, do they have any news?"

Uncle Lian was silent for a moment, and said, "There is no news of the Third Young Master yet. ”

Shen Muping, who had been leaning on the head of the bed and hadn't opened his eyes, heard this, his eyelids suddenly trembled, and then he suddenly opened his eyes, and there were many excited eyes hidden in the calm, and he shot at Uncle Lian, "You mean, there is news of my father?"

Uncle Lian hesitated and didn't answer.

Seeing this, Shen Muping immediately frowned, and the excitement in his eyes gradually turned into grief, and after closing his eyes again, he took a deep breath and said, "Let's be honest, I can stand it." ”

Uncle Lian raised his eyes and glanced at Shen Muping, and then said slowly in a low voice, "The news that Anding just sent this morning has found the master." ”

Shen Muping was silent for a long time, and finally asked unwillingly, "Are you still alive?"

"By the time I found it, it was too late. Uncle Lian's voice was slightly hoarse, and his hands hanging down beside him trembled uncontrollably.

After Shen Muping heard this, he didn't say anything, just leaned there, as if he was asleep, and there was no emotion on his face, but the increasingly rapid and heavy breathing showed that his heart was not at peace at the moment.

After a long time, he finally spoke, "Mu Ye and the second lady, move quickly." ”

"Yes. Uncle Lian responded.

"In addition, send more people out, you must find Muzhi, and you must see people......" Speaking of this, Shen Muping paused slightly, and after taking a deep breath, he continued, "Death is to see the corpse." ”

"Yes, the old slave will arrange it, even if he turns over the Jin Kingdom, he will definitely find out the third young master. Uncle Lian replied vigorously with a trembling voice.

"Let's get out......"

"Then you have a good rest. After Uncle Lian finished speaking, he bowed and retreated. After going out, he immediately called someone over and arranged all the instructions of Shen Muping just now.

This side has just been arranged, and suddenly someone from the door came to report, saying that there was someone looking for him outside the door, and he was still a Taoist priest.

When Uncle Lian heard this, he hurriedly ran to the door. When I got to the door, I saw that it was Xuan Cheng.

At that moment, he hurriedly stepped forward, and before the words of greeting came out, he heard Xuan Cheng say, "I'm here to tell you, your third young master has been found." However, he was a little injured and it was inconvenient to come back for the time being, so I will send him back when his injuries are better. ”

When Uncle Lian heard this, he was stunned and immediately overjoyed, and when he was excited, he didn't care about identity and etiquette, grabbed Xuan Cheng's hand, and asked, "Is it true?"

Xuan Cheng nodded patiently, "Found it, it's in this city." Rest assured, he's safe now. ”

"Then can I go and see him?" Uncle Lian hurriedly asked again, the joy on his face was about to overflow.

After Xuan Cheng hesitated for a moment, he shook his head and said, "He is seriously injured and needs to recuperate, so it is better for you not to show up for the time being, so as not to be too emotional and affect your recovery." ”

When Uncle Lian heard Xuancheng say that Shen Muzhi was seriously injured, he suddenly became anxious again, and wanted to ask more, but Xuancheng didn't give him this opportunity, and left in a hurry under the pretext that he wanted to go back to take care of Shen Muzhi.

Although Uncle Lian wanted to follow and see how Shen Muzhi was doing, he was worried that his rash action would make this immortal master unhappy, so he just suppressed the eagerness in his heart. After calming down for a while, he remembered that Shen Muping didn't know the news yet, so he hurried to Shen Muping's yard.

This was undoubtedly good news, especially after just learning the news that Shen Wei would not be able to come back alive.

For this Shen Mansion, which has undergone a sudden change in just a few months, this result can even be said to be a blessing in misfortune.

However, for the Shen Mansion, the impact of this great change is far from over.

Now that the second prince is dead, it is estimated that the DPRK will not stop there, and there will definitely be some action, and the relevant personnel involved in the rebellion of the second prince must be found out and dealt with. As far as the clues that Uncle Lian and the others have at present, it is not known how deeply Shen Muye's mother and son are involved in this matter. Therefore, they must act quickly, and they must eliminate all the clues left by their mother and son before those people in the palace check over, otherwise, this time the second prince rebelled, and the Shen Mansion paid a great price to get the title of a hero, I am afraid that it will not be able to be saved.

And now that Shen Muping's body is paralyzed, it is obviously impossible to go to the battlefield again, if there is no such meritorious name to protect the Shen family, then the Shen family's status in the court will inevitably plummet. Therefore, they must do everything they can to keep their reputation.

This is probably the most helpless place in life, Shen Muye's mother and son made such a big mistake, not only could they not kill them at once, but they even had to wipe their butts.
