Chapter 85: Running into Yuan Zhen
Shen Yuan smiled gently, "I'm scared."

Her brother was indeed very good at chess and was widely rumored to do so. However, given his character, if he played chess with the emperor, it would be impossible for him to draw. Even if he had superb chess skills, he would only lose without leaving a trace.

The emperor laughed and said, "Looking at you facing off against the North Wing King and the Fourth Prince of the Western Yuan Dynasty, you are not the least bit frightened. You must know that in the hearts of the courtiers, the North Wing King is much scarier than me."

Shen Yu'an answered thoughtfully, "The emperor is a benevolent king, and I respect you. As for the fourth prince of the Western Yuan Dynasty, I have a grudge against him, and I have a deep hatred for the Western Yuan Kingdom. Several men from my Shen family were killed on the battlefield. The soldiers suffered countless casualties and it is hard not to hate them."

"I narrowly escaped death and caused a lot of pain to my family. When I met the fourth prince of the Western Yuan Dynasty, I knew I should restrain myself and return to etiquette, but I couldn't hide my hatred. I wished I could tear out his bones, peel off his skin, eat his flesh and drink his blood. It was just a conflict of words, it was already... The limit of my forbearance."

"I am not impulsive. I can argue with the fourth prince of the Western Yuan Dynasty. It is inevitable that the current Xiyuan Kingdom will tear up the armistice contract and start a war again just because of a few words from me."

"Our Beiyu country lost countless soldiers because of the war. After years of hard work, we finally won the victory. As a victorious country, we can't bow to the defeated country, right? I can't do that!"

"Speaking of the North Wing King..."

Shen Yu'an smiled bitterly, "There is a big conflict between me and the North Wing King in private, and the grudge has been deep."

"That day, he took me to a restaurant and let me see with my own eyes through the window that the medical hall run by his family was smashed by him. The North Wing King's original intention was to anger me, but he did it. I was really angry that day. .”

"In anger, I did not hesitate to openly confront him, and I must seek justice."

"Everyone thinks that the Prince of Pingxihou Mansion is gentle, elegant, steady and self-denying, but they forget that Shen Huaizhi comes from a family of military generals. In his early years, he followed his father and brother on the battlefield. He lived a life of licking blood from the edge of a knife. He has a bloody heart."

"The King of North Wing bullies people too much. If Shen Huaizhi still tolerates it, it would be too cowardly."

"Shen Huaizhi is not a coward. He doesn't take the initiative to cause trouble, but he is never afraid of trouble!"

Shen Yuan's tone was gentle and calm. After speaking, she looked directly at the emperor calmly.

The emperor looked at Shen Yu'an and "re-recognized" Shen Huaizhi. He had never seen Shen Huaizhi lose his temper in the past, let alone have a conflict with anyone. After he came back from the dead, he seemed to have changed his temper and openly confronted the North Wing King and the emperor. The fourth prince of the Western Yuan Dynasty, after listening to his explanation, he felt that it was reasonable.

If Shen Huaizhi is a coward, he is not worthy of the attention of General Shen and Shen Fengnian.

The King of Beiyi and the Fourth Prince of Xiyuan were bullying others too much. Shen Huai could tolerate it and there was nothing wrong with resisting.

"How is the progress of the assassination case? Has anyone found any clues?"

The emperor changed the subject, and Shen Yu'an followed suit, "I carefully checked the palace officials who purchased it, and found no doubts. The problem should lie elsewhere."

"A few days ago, I was about to find the King of the North Wing and wanted to know if he had made any progress. Unfortunately, a woman came to his residence. The King of the North Wing paid great attention to her, but I was unable to make a handover with the King of the North Wing. "

"Later on the eldest princess's birthday, something happened to the two sisters again, so the matter was shelved."

The emperor couldn't blame him. After all, the two daughters of the Shen family were gone. When it came to Yuan Zhen's entry into the palace, there was nothing that needed to be concealed, so he just told it.

He also wanted to know how Shen Huaizhi would react when he found out that Jiang Yan was not Shen Fengnian's son.

Shen Yu'an frowned. She was surprised that Jiang Yan and Jiang Bingyue were not twins. Was this a deliberate fabrication by Jiang Bingyue to harm her, or was it the truth?

"If Jiang Bingyue really knows the whereabouts of Princess Xiyuan, she really can't be killed right now. As for whether Jiang Yan is a bloodline of the Shen family, it's actually very simple. Just drop a blood test to test her affinity."

She calmly proposed a "blood test", and the emperor instantly dispelled his doubts.

"The resurrection of Chen proves that the Jiang siblings are indeed the blood of the Shen family. I don't know what Jiang Yan's intention is when he denies it." Shen Yu'an said thoughtfully, "There is also the Princess of Xiyuan who was left behind among the people. What a coincidence. She was actually adopted by the mother of the Jiang siblings." After thinking for a while, he raised doubts, "Even if the mother of the Jiang siblings really adopted a girl, how would she know that the girl was the princess of the Western Yuan Kingdom? If she had known it earlier , why didn’t you go look for the Fourth Prince of Xiyuan in the first place and wait until Jiang Bingyue was ordered to be executed to be exposed?”

"He must be trying to use the clues from the Princess of Xiyuan to save himself." The emperor said solemnly.

Shen Yu'an looked at the emperor, "Then you chose not to speak out at the beginning, were you plotting something secretly?"

The eyes of the king and his ministers met.

The emperor said in a deep voice, "It's time to investigate the Jiang siblings and their mother! It must not be simple!"

*
When Shen Yu'an left the palace, she transferred to the Ministry of Punishment and entered the prison of the Ministry of Punishment as Shen Shizi.

In the cell, she met Jiang Bingyue.

Due to the visit of the Fourth Prince of AD, the environment of her cell has been improved and there is an extra small bed.

She was lying on the bed, looking dying.

When she heard someone coming, she looked over with obviously empty eyes. She was whimpering in a panic and couldn't say a single word.

"Miss Jiang, Prince Shen is here to visit you," the jailer said.

Because Jiang Bingyue was poisoned earlier, the jailer no longer dared to leave and stayed by the side.

When Jiang Bingyue heard that "Shen Huaizhi" had come to visit her, she became obviously more anxious. She subconsciously shrank to the side of the bed, her expression showing fear. Why did this fake Shen Huaizhi come to see her?Are you prepared to kill someone and silence them?
Aren't you worried that she will reveal the Shen family's secrets?
"The imperial doctor came to see him, what did he say?" Shen Yu'an asked.

"Back to Shen Shizi, the imperial doctor failed to diagnose what kind of poison Miss Jiang was poisoned with. He simply prescribed conventional drugs to suppress the toxin, and then went to see Divine Doctor Nie. I wonder if Divine Doctor Nie can be invited to come and treat Miss Jiang. "The jailer said respectfully.

Shen Yuan's eyes darkened, "If the imperial doctor cannot be invited, then I, the prince, will go and invite him myself."

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Bingyue panicked. Did this mean that the poison in her body could not be cured by even Divine Doctor Nie, and she would only be blind and mute in the future?What's the point of living like this?
No, she can't live like this.

She needs to get a healthy body.

But at the moment, she is not dead, and there is no suitable person around who can take her body.

"Sister Bingyue, I'll take a look at you on behalf of my father. After watching it, it's time for me to leave."

Shen Yuan turned around and left.

Before she left the Criminal Department, she met Yuan Zhen who was rushing over.

The two met in the cell.

Yuan Zhen struck first, with sharp eyes, "What are you doing here?"

Shen Yu'an raised her eyebrows, "What the Fourth Prince of the Western Yuan Dynasty said is interesting. This is the Prison Department of Beiyu Kingdom. My son is currently serving in the Department of Punishment. Why don't you come?"
