Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year

His eyeliner informed everything about what happened.

When he heard the wolves guarding him, a smile appeared on the emperor's face.

"It should be the little girl from the Shen family in Xiangyun Village, right?"

She could always do something unusual, and no wonder his son always liked to get along with her.

"Yes," the guard bowed his head and handed over his hand: "However, I heard that this was not Miss Shen's intention, but that Miss Shen was helping to fulfill other people's wishes."

The emperor's smile suddenly faded, and he asked doubtfully: "Whose legacy?"

The guard hurriedly talked about the Wu family's affairs, and by the way, he also handed over the results of his investigation.

"I thought it was an ordinary fire, but I personally went to Xitai Village to inquire about the news. I also went to several government offices and found something strange. The death of the three members of the Wu family may not be an accident."

The emperor took the folder and looked at it for a moment. His brows furrowed more tightly, and displeasure filled his eyes.

The guard reported in a low voice: "The villagers of Xitai Village can indeed confirm that the Wu family and his wife died in the fire, and some villagers saw men in black entering and leaving his house that night."

"Coincidentally, that night, Miss Shen also lived in the Wu family, and Wu Zuchang, the son of the Wu family who went up the mountain with her, died of a stab wound."

"However, the government's case record only states that three members of the Wu family died accidentally, not homicide."

After the emperor read the excerpt, various clues allowed him to guess what happened.

"Damn it!" He slammed the book on the table, causing the pen holder to shake back and forth, showing that he was extremely angry.

The eunuch at the door was frightened when he heard this.

Why did the emperor lose his temper?

"This is obviously aimed at Shen Ningning!" The emperor paced back and forth, like a violent lion, with the storm in his eyes becoming deep and dangerous.

The guard nodded: "Bizhi thinks so too, but since the Emperor began to pay attention to Miss Shen, he arranged for Bizhi to observe her."

"Ms. Shen is a kind-hearted person. Her reputation inside and outside Xiangyun Village proves that she has simple interpersonal relationships and has never been against anyone. Why would someone kill a child?"

The emperor slowly sat back on the chair, his eyes looked even colder, with a strong murderous aura.

"Ling Wei... They know that Ling Wei is friends with Shen Ningning." So, they want to kill his friend?

The guard remained silent, apparently acquiescing to this view.

The emperor suddenly laughed. This smile was bone-chilling and cold, with terrifying anger.

"No wonder, no wonder! I told you why Ling Wei didn't want to let Shen Ningning enter the palace. It turns out that he had already guessed it. He was surrounded by jackals and everyone was staring at him."

"With a little carelessness, even the friends he most wants to make will be retaliated against!"

He smiled and smiled, then turned bitter.

"Ling Wei has seen through things long ago, but I have been kept in the dark."

"Don't blame him for not being close to me!"

When the emperor said this, the guards did not dare to speak.

"No...no..." He suddenly thought of something again, and the look in his eyes swayed with the candlelight: "If we want to kill Shen Ningning, we won't silence everyone in the Wu family."

"What are those people trying to hide?" the emperor thought with a calm look.

suddenly!

He said to the guard: "Go and investigate secretly. Whether the Wu family has been in contact with any suspicious people recently, no matter how big or small, let me find out everything!"

"Yes." The guard resigned and hurried away in the night.

On the other side, the doors and windows of Concubine Li's palace were closed.

"Trash! Brother, this trash!" She yelled angrily.

The nanny who came to report the news knelt at her feet, terrified.

She just told Concubine Li that Wei Shangshu arranged for Du Yuanwai to hire a murderer to assassinate Shen Ningning, but accidentally killed the fake family that Concubine Li had found for her.

Now Shen Ningning wanted to avenge the Wu family, so she insisted on this matter and made many moves outside the city.

The emperor must have known.

Li Fei was furious.

"He knew how to cause trouble to me. When something happened, he remembered that I had warned him not to touch anyone around the prince. Why didn't he listen?"

"If he hadn't intervened, maybe Shen Ningning really believed that the Wu family was her family, and I would have been able to use the Wu family to control her, which is equivalent to placing an informant around the prince."

"It's good now. Shen Ningning is disobedient and the Wu family is dead. The emperor will investigate soon. I'll see how he ends up this time!"

After Concubine Li said this, she felt so angry that she had a headache and felt dizzy, and she suddenly fell down on the imperial concubine's couch.

Grandma hurriedly persuaded: "My queen, please calm down and take care of yourself!"

How could Li Fei calm down?

The emperor was partial to the prince, and for so many years, she only dared to do some trivial tricks.

But once she provoked the prince, Mo Lingwei, a mad dog, not only made her son disabled, but he is still at large.

If Mo Lingwei finds out, Wei Shangshu bribes a killer to target Shen Ningning...

Li Fei shuddered.

Her beautiful face looked as if she had seen a ghost, only pale with fear.

"You!" She grabbed her mother's collar like crazy: "You leave the palace immediately and tell your elder brother to kill all the murderers and leave no one behind!"

Grandma was slow to respond, so Li Fei urged and shouted: "Go quickly!"

"Yes...yes!" Grandma rolled and crawled out.

However.

When the news reached Wei Shangshu's mansion, he was also sweating profusely with anxiety.

"Kill them all? Those assassins haven't come back until now."

Not only that, I heard that Shen Ningning captured a living person and hid it.

We must wait for Mo Lingwei to return to Beijing and let him investigate.

Once the prince intervenes, this matter will become troublesome.

He hurriedly went to ask the housekeeper: "Is the third brother back?"

The housekeeper was sweating profusely. After searching for a long time, he reported back: "No...no, the third master hasn't been back for two days. I don't know where he went."

"This bastard spends all his time out drinking and drinking, and doesn't even know when trouble is about to happen." Wei Shangshu became anxious.

Concubine Li bribed the Wu family and asked Mr. Wei to come forward.

He was afraid that there would be some leverage in the benefits given to the Wu family, so he had to vent his anger to his third brother in advance.

But unexpectedly, Mr. Wei has been missing for two days.

Wei Shangshu immediately ordered: "Send more people to look for him. Go to the brothel and the outer house where he usually goes. Dig three feet of the ground for me and drag him back!"

The housekeeper and the guards were busy.

Wei Shangshu felt that this was not enough, so he called his confidants and asked him to go to Xiangyun Village tomorrow and bring Shen Ningning to the capital.

If anything happens, sit down and discuss it carefully. If Shen Ningning wants to seek justice for the Wu family, just find a scapegoat for her.

In short, this matter must be dealt with before the prince comes back.

He must not be allowed to discover that the Wei family is behind this.

Not only the Wei family, but also other high-ranking officials and dignitaries were afraid that it was their own dandies who did it after hearing the news of the tragic death of the Wu family.

So every household was checked overnight to make sure it had nothing to do with them. Even those with naughty sons and daughters were not allowed to go out in the past few days to avoid getting into trouble.

That night, Shen Ningning slept soundly.

She didn't know that her actions made the entire capital tremble.

Early the next morning.

The escort arranged by Wei Shangshu rushed to Xiangyun Village and planned to pick up Shen Ningning.

However, before they could enter the village, they saw the prince's car parked at the entrance of the village.

Wei Shangshu's people were scared to death.

How did they know that the prince went straight to Xiangyun Village as soon as he came back and didn't even return to the palace!

The guard looked pale and his legs and feet were weak: "Quick, let's go back and inform the adults that something happened."

The prince met Shen Ningning first, so he would definitely know about the Wu family.

It’s over, it’s completely over now!
