374: Meeting Again in the Palace (3)

Meeting Again in the Palace (3)

The only thing worth being happy about now was having roped in Pei Lang.2

She had always known very well that it was not good for the Shen family to be involved in the affairs of the palace. However, she was just a girl and did not have the chance to come into contact with inside information. Moreover, many things had already changed in this life, so she had to make Pei Lang her ears and eyes in the palace.

There was probably some luck involved in recruiting Pei Lang. Back then, when Fu Xiuyi recruited Pei Lang, it was also because one of his subordinates had a relationship with Magistrate Pei that he found out about Pei Lang's background. At that time, it was also because Fu Xiuyi helped Liu Ying settle down that Pei Lang became loyal to him.

The Pei siblings were both stubborn and opinionated. After Liu Ying became a prostitute, she put all her past behind her and dedicated to being a prostitute. Perhaps it was because she found recalling her identity in the past too painful. As for Pei Lang, he never thought about taking revenge and just settled down as a teacher.

Liu Ying was unwilling to admit her real identity and was also angry at the Pei family for abandoning her to save Pei Lang. If Pei Lang proposed to free her from the brothel, Liu Ying would resist with all her might. However, Shen Miao gave Liu Ying a way out. Once she had Liu Ying in control, she indirectly had Pei LIang in control.

"Miss, it's better to rest early." Jingzhe smiled and said, "Tomorrow, you still have to go with Madam to see the mansion in the east of the city."

Shen Miao nodded.

However, she did not expect that her plan could not keep up with the changes.

The next morning, after Shen Miao had breakfast, Luo Xueyan's maid came over and said that after Shen Miao changed her clothes, they would go and take a look at the new mansion.

However, before Shen Miao could finish dressing up, a palace maid came, asking Luo Xueyan to go to the palace. She even said that if Shen Miao was free, she had to come long.

Shen Xin and Shen Qiu's expressions immediately darkened, and Luo Xueyan was a little confused when she heard that the palace maid was instructed to deliver the message by a consort.

After all, Luo Xueyan did not have much of a relationship with any of the women in the palace.

Shen Xin and Shen Qiu found it strange that Shen Miao was also asked to go along. Could it be that someone wanted to take advantage of Shen Miao? Once Shen Miao was concerned, they were always especially nervous. Shen Xin said, "Madam, I'll go and keep you company."

"Why?" Luo Xueyan said, "You are not invited. Don't cause unnecessary trouble. I'll bring Jiaojiao along." She hesitated for a moment. "There are so many people. They won't do anything out of line. Besides, I'm not a weak woman. If…" She wanted to say that if anything happened, she wouldn't protect Shen Miao at all costs.

Shen Xin nodded. "I don't think the situation in the palace is dangerous at this moment. Don't worry. Just go."

Luo Xueyan held Shen Miao's hand and got into the carriage arranged by the palace. She originally planned to go and see the mansion early this morning, but her plan was delayed by this sudden occurrence. No one knew if it was a good occurrence or not.
