Venomous Empress Reborn - Chapter 683
683 Execution (4)
Shen Wan said in a low voice, “She won’t be able to do this alone unless she has the guidance of an adviser or the help of a backer.”
“I’m afraid it’s not Shen Miao who has found a backer.” Shen Gui thought for a moment and said, “It’s the first branch who has found a backer.” He seemed to have thought of something and suddenly slapped his knee. “Why didn’t Shen Xin fall to his death on the battlefield back then! I was wondering why everything has been going wrong all these years. It turns out that Shen Xin is the one who has been plotting against us!” He said righteously, but he did not mention how much the Shen family had plotted against Shen Xin.
“No matter what, this matter will more or less be related to Shen Xin.” Chen Ruoqiu calmed down at this moment and said more and more pertinently, “Otherwise, why is everyone in the second and third branches keep getting into trouble while the first branch is safe and sound?”
Everyone was silent.
!!
After a while, Shen Gui gritted his teeth and said, “In that case, we have to drag them down with us this time! Even if we don’t have a good time, their first branch can’t have a good time either.” He looked at Shen Wan. “Third Brother, let’s think of a way to send Shen Xin to prison!”
“We can’t.” Shen Wan said calmly, “If we try too hard to involve Shen Wan at this point, anyone with a discerning eye can tell that we’re framing him. The more we do it, the more the emperor will think that the first branch is not on the same side as us. The first branch will benefit from this.”
Shen Gui said angrily, “Are we going to let him off just like that?”
Shen Wan sneered. “Even if we can’t pull Shen Xin down, we have to make him suffer!”
“Third Brother, you mean…” Shen Gui was a little puzzled.
Shen Wan lowered his voice. “Do you know who else is implicated and angry but was too noble to be sent to prison?”
Chen Ruoqiu frowned. “Prince Ding?”
“That’s right.” Shen Wan looked at Chen Ruoqiu calmly. At this moment, it was useless to blame Chen Ruoqiu for turning him in. Moreover, the reason Chen Ruoqiu was driven to do that was that Shen Wan divorced her for Chang Zaiqing. Moreover, they all might have fallen in the trap someone set up. What was the point of playing the blame game?
Shen Wan said coldly, “Our every move is being watched by others right now. Of course, there are also people from Prince Ding’s side. If we ‘chat’ about the first branch casually, it will definitely make Prince Ding suspicious.”
Previously, since Prince Ding wanted him to find a way to matchmake Shen Miao with Prince Zhou, he was already a little wary of Shen Miao. If they casually chatted about the first branch, Prince Ding might think that the first branch had tricked him and made him suspected by Emperor Wen Hui, he would probably want to destroy the first branch immediately.
Among the nine princes, Prince Ding hid his ambitions the deepest. Being targeted by Prince Ding, Shen Wan believed that the first branch would have a hard time in the future.
Even if Shen Wan could not change his fate, he had to drag the first branch with him.
He muttered in a low voice that he could hear, “I’ll wait for you on the way to hell, Brother.”
…
The case related to Shen Wan in the capital was closed very quickly, so when the people found out about it, they were a little confused.
