After everyone in the room was gone, Shen Ning coldly ordered the two bound nuns to come closer.

The two nuns, who were tied like rice dumplings, approached cautiously: "Eldest...eldest lady..."

Shen Ning loosened the rope around Shen Shi'an's neck, untied the rope for the two nuns without saying a word, and then ordered them to get out.

The two nuns rolled and crawled out.

Shen Ning turned her eyes coldly, grabbed one end of the rope, and wrapped it around Shen Shi'an's neck again. A hint of ridicule flashed across the corner of her mouth: "Just now, my grandmother said that I couldn't protect my chastity and wasted food while I was alive. In this case, I would like to take a look. Can the eldest brother, the eldest son of the Shen family, escape from the hands of a weak woman like me?"

Mrs. Shen probably forgot that those mountain bandits were so numerous and ferocious that Shen Ning, a woman who went out to offer incense, could not possibly be their opponent.

But that's okay.

She will prove to them one by one with practical actions that everyone in the Shen family from top to bottom is a waste of food.

"Shen... Shen Ning..." Shen Shi'an clutched the rope around his neck tightly, his voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, "Let me go, I... I will let you go..."

"Big brother really has some momentum when he shows off his power." Shen Ning mocked, "If you can use this momentum towards your sister elsewhere, I will definitely admire you as a man, but it's a pity that you are just a coward and incompetent. A coward who can't even protect his own sister can only show off his power to those who are weaker than him. It's really sad and ridiculous. "

Shen Shi'an wanted to speak, but Shen Ning didn't give him a chance.

Putting a handkerchief into his mouth, Shen Ning dragged him to the foot of the bed, tied Shen Shi'an firmly to the bedpost, then turned around and walked to the window to stand.

There are many more guards visible to the naked eye in Haitang Courtyard.

Originally, these guards were not allowed to enter the inner courtyard, but with Shen Shi'an, the lifeblood of the Shen family, in Shen Ning's hands, neither the old lady nor Shen Yunlin could care about the rules and regulations?

If they had the privilege, they would just wish to bring over all the archers.

Shen Ning stood still for a moment, silently looking down at his hands.

A pair of long, white and tender jade hands.

The thin layer of calluses on the palms is caused by long-term martial arts practice.

Shen Ning, the legitimate daughter of the Shen family, is a woman who has practiced martial arts.

That's why he used violence against Qin Yanshu twice and easily captured Shen Shi'an in front of Shen Yunlin, without arousing the other party's suspicion.

Shen Ning raised her eyes and looked out the window at the dark night, with a bit of cold light flashing in her dark and deep eyes.

The Shen family is the palace of the Duke of Zhenguo, and Shen Yunlin is the Duke of the country. He relied on his military exploits and his service as a dragon to become a favorite of the late emperor.

Shen Ning is the eldest daughter of the Duke's family, and she was once the noble daughter of this family. However, yesterday when she went to pray for her grandmother outside the city, she encountered bandits and all the servants and maids were killed. Only Shen Ning survived.

When her family found her, Shen Ning was disheveled and weak. Her body had been drugged and she looked like it had been defiled.

But only she knew that Shen Ning's innocence was still there.

That group of people had no idea what purpose they had, they just wanted to create an illusion that she was tainted, in order to achieve some ulterior purpose.

It's just that Shen Ning has a strong temper and can't bear to be humiliated during the fierce resistance. He is no longer alive, and the core of this body has long been replaced.

The Shen Ning now is not the Shen Ning before.

The relatives of the Shen family are not her relatives.

But if the real Shen Ning is still there, facing such a disgusting attitude from his family, I'm afraid he won't be able to continue to live.

So what if the innocence is still there?

Being humiliated in broad daylight is enough to make a woman who has lived in a big house since she was a child desperately wishing for death.

But since those bandits didn't really want to taint her, but deliberately created an illusion that she had been tainted, what was their purpose?

They were so cruel that they killed all the maids and guards around her, just to cause this result?

Shen Ning's eyes were as if they were tempered with ice, and she was thinking quietly.

Who is behind this?

They made such a false impression, ruined her reputation, and left her innocent. What was their intention?

Is it to give Qin Yanshu a reason to demote his wife as a concubine?

From wife to concubine...

Shen Ning closed her eyes in silence and leaned against the window frame, thinking about the current situation.

After returning yesterday evening, she had already accepted Shen Ning's memory. This was the Kingdom of Dayong. The emperor was only fifteen years old back then. According to the system of the Great Yong Ancestor, there was still one year before he could take charge.

At present, the power of the government is in the hands of the regent Ji Yucang.

Almost everyone in the Yong Kingdom knows that the regent is an extremely ruthless person. He holds military power and political power, and the entire Yong Kingdom is under his control.

But the Prince Regent had a fatal weakness.

He was poisoned and would not live long.

Before his death, the late emperor passed the throne to the current underage prince. Because he was worried that his relatives would interfere in politics and power would fall into the hands of the queen mother and the Qin family, he appointed a regent to oversee the country.

However, the regent originally had military power, and the late emperor was worried that he would threaten the throne by relying on his own troops, so he poisoned him.

The antidote is in the hands of the emperor, one pill per month.

As for what kind of poison it is and what its symptoms are, no one knows except the young emperor and the regent himself.

In addition to the regent, Yong State also had three pillars: the Duke of Zhenguo, the left and right prime ministers, and Taifu Wu.

Among them, the left and right prime ministers have the most real power. Because the regent has trusted generals under his command, his generals are responsible for quelling civil strife and rebellion. In recent years, the Zhenguo Duke's important ministers, who are based on military generals, have been declining.

The Qin family is the uncle's house.

Uncle Qin is the biological brother of the Queen Mother and the biological uncle of the young emperor, so the Shen family insists on this marriage. Even if the Qin family breaks off the engagement and Qin Yanshu demotes his wife to a concubine, they are not willing to give up on this marriage. .

Especially after Shen Ning's reputation was ruined, they even thought it was a great grace that Qin Yanshu was still willing to have her.

In their eyes, Qin Yanshu was a good man who was affectionate and responsible, but Shen Ning, the victim, became a sinner.

It’s so ridiculously affectionate and responsible.

The coldest thing in the world is a man's affectionate promise.

Shen Ning caressed her wrist unconsciously.

The severe pain of having my hand tendons broken seems to still be there, the helplessness of having my shoulder blades pierced by iron chains comes like a tide, the embarrassment of being trampled in the rain that would be worse than death, the tragic experience of being abused and humiliated in front of thousands of people... from She has experienced all the pain and humiliation of being a superior person and becoming a subordinate. What is this little setback in front of her?

Shen Ning opened her eyes, and there was a bottomless cold pool in her eyes. After a moment, she turned around and walked to the bed and leaned down, closing her eyes and thinking.

The night wind blew by, and the swaying fire flickered, illuminating her stunningly beautiful face, reflecting an eerie and gloomy luster for no reason.

In less than two hours, it will be dawn.
