Venomous Empress Reborn - Chapter 786
786 All Yours (5)
Shen Qiu noticed Shen Miao’s expression and asked, “Sister, why aren’t you surprised that Huangfu Hao was killed at all?”
Shen Miao smiled. “What’s there to be surprised about? Since it’s as those people said, the crown prince wants to ‘discuss’ with Huangfu Hao alone, it’s very likely that the crown prince will kill him on impulse. It’s not like there hasn’t been such a case in Ming Qi in the past. Why make a fuss?”
Shen Qiu was speechless. Shen Miao’s words made everyone in the room fall into a deep thought. Shen Miao was right, but what disagreement could be so intense as to drive the crown prince to kill someone? Moreover, the victim was the crown prince of a country. Even if Emperor Wen Hui was so angry that he lost his mind, he would not kill someone so rashly.
Shen Xin and Luo Xueyan both frowned. Shen Miao did not have to think too far ahead, but they were officials in the imperial court. Every small move in the imperial court could affect their future lives. Moreover, Huangfu Hao died in Ming Qi this time, and the person who was accused of doing it was the Crown Prince of Ming Qi. Those guards had probably already sent someone back to send a message. After the Emperor of the State of Qin found out that his son and daughter both died in Ming Qi, what would he do?
!!
It was very difficult for Ming Qi and the State of Qin to form an alliance again. At this moment, it was unknown what the Daliang Dynasty would do.
That night, because of this sudden occurrence, even the atmosphere in the Shen family fell into silence. However, it was not because they sympathized with Huangfu Hao or the crown prince, but because they were worried about the variables that might happen in the future.
When Xie Jingxing came to look for Shen Miao, she was standing in front of the window in a daze.
Huangfu Hao died just like that. In her previous life, Huangfu Hao and Princess Ming An were a nightmare that she could not get rid of during the five years she was a hostage in the State of Qin. Princess Ming An was arrogant and despotic, and Huangfu Hao liked to find novel ways to make fun of her. He was the crown prince of the State of Qin. Once Huangfu Hao started making fun of her, the others would follow suit. In fact, there was no hatred between Shen Miao, Huangfu Hao, and Princess Ming An, but such malicious humiliation eventually amounted to strong resentment.
Unlike the others, Shen Miao had never thought of making Huangfu Hao and Princess Ming An pay with their lives, because they were not the ones who harmed the Shen family the most in her previous life. These people had at most hit her when she was down for a while in her previous life.
If not for the fact that they were plotting against her again in this life, Shen Miao would probably ignore the two of them.
Now that they were gone, Shen Miao was a little at a loss.
Ever since she was reborn, the path she had always followed was to take revenge and protect the Shen family from walking down the same path. However, as long as the royal family was around, they would not let the Shen family off. Her enemies were very powerful from the beginning. Sometimes, Shen Miao would wonder if she could make it to the end.
The figure who jumped down from the tree waved his hand in front of Shen Miao. When Shen Miao came back to her senses, she saw Xie Jingxing’s playful smile. He said, “Do you miss me so much that you are lost in thought?”
Shen Miao was about to close the window when Xie Jingxing quickly caught her and jumped into the room. He pressed one hand on Shen Miao’s shoulder and closed the window with the other. “Be careful not to catch a cold.”
Cong Yang, who was standing in the corner and freezing, was speechless.
Shen Miao pushed Xie Jingxing’s hand away and sat down at the table in the room, asking, “How did you handle it?”
“No problem.” Xie Jingxing sat down and gestured for Shen Miao to pour him tea.
Shen Miao held her breath and poured him tea. She reluctantly pushed the teacup over and asked, “Are you sure the people of the State of Qin won’t find out?”
