Chapter 199
"You don't think I dare?"

Just want her to be a guest at their house?Hostage?
Li Chaochao raised his eyebrows amusedly, "What's your son's name?"

Hearing this, Steward Jin had room to turn around, and hurriedly said: "We are the Shen family of the Baozhen Hall in the capital, and the son's name is Bi Xueying. He is the only heir of the Shen family. He..."

"Then what relationship do you have with Prince Jing's Mansion!" Li Chaochao asked straight to the point.

Butler Jin froze for a moment, lowered his head and pursed his lips without speaking.

Li Chaochao sneered, "Either say it, or leave early."

"It doesn't matter." Steward Jin suddenly felt that the woman in front of him was really difficult to deal with, "How dare we have anything to do with Prince Jing's Mansion, it's just... some of our mansion sent beauties to Prince Jing's Mansion."

Butler Jin wondered where did Li Chaochao guess that the two families were related?
"Do you think I will believe it?" Li Chaochao lowered his eyes, "Since you don't want to say it and are so dishonest, why invite me to your residence as a guest."

Butler Jin's eyes were red with anxiety, "Girl, I really have never concealed anything. The beauties sent to Prince Jing's mansion have never been favored. This is done by the steward of the main house. We dare not intervene, but our young master likes novelty things." , the master and madam will send the best things, and even heard that..."

Butler Jin sighed as if resigned to his fate, "Actually, there is a distant relative of the Shen family in Prince Jing's mansion who has always loved our young master. Even Prince Jing's son picked up fragrances in the morning and evening, and our young master also likes incense powder. people……"

This could also explain why Shen Xueying would pick up flowers in the morning, but if she went to Shen's residence as a guest, she would have to weigh it.

Butler Jin seemed to know what she was thinking, kowtowed and said: "To be honest, that aunt Shen passed away a few years ago, our family dare not rely on this reputation, and we have not had much contact with Prince Jing's mansion, for fear of being humiliated. The reputation of the palace."

There is nothing wrong with saying it, but she never believes everything anyone says.

"Butler Jin, don't you think there is nothing wrong with what you said?"

"I don't dare to tell a lie."

Li Chaochao turned around and took a few steps. Butler Jin raised his head and knelt on the ground in bewilderment. Suddenly, the girl in front suddenly turned her head, and shot a poisonous cold arrow in her eyes, "Shen Xueying said he has a brother! You said he He is the only heir of the Shen family! Who is his elder brother!"

Butler Jin lowered his head in a panic, and secretly picked his palm, "Our young master used to have an older brother, but... but... he went there a few years ago, and the younger ones have never dared to tell the truth to the young master, please help me Keep it a secret."

"Heh." Li Chaochao raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Butler Jin, it's better that the brother you mentioned...is dead."

Li Chaochao almost gritted her teeth, no matter who that elder brother is, no matter whether the Shen family is related to Prince Jing's mansion or not, she must not go on the road with them.

She went to the door and closed it with a bang, and saw Chen Fan kneeling on the ground, kowtowing: "Girl."

Li Chaochao walked around her, went to the bedside and checked the unconscious Dongyue, "How is she?"

"They were all drugged." Chen Fan turned around and knelt down, "It's my subordinate's dereliction of duty, please forgive me."

"Wake them up first."

"Wake up at dawn."

Li Chaochao felt relieved now, sat down at the table and glanced coldly at Chen Fan who was on the ground, "Don't tell Shizi Lan what happened tonight."

"..."

Chen Fan dared not agree.

"You think he's not annoying enough?"

"The subordinates think this family is very strange."

Li Chaochao poured a glass of water and sipped it, "Then go and investigate, and find out the relationship between the Shen family and Prince Jing's residence."

She waved her hand, but Chen Fan still knelt on the ground and refused to get up. Li Chaochao looked at him suspiciously, "There is still something to do."

"My subordinate asks the girl to surrender."

"No need, I never have naive hopes for people who can't be counted on. It's good that you have a clear conscience. If you really can't make it through, you will feel uncomfortable for a few days and it will be my punishment."

Chen Fan's scalp went numb for a while, killing people without blood.

He hesitated and asked: "Then tomorrow, will you take the first step?"

Li Chaochao was also thinking there, was he entering a tiger's den?Still not in the tiger's den?

But there are no cubs in the tiger's den, and she has no compassion for running in there for no reason.

"Leave early."

But in the early morning of the next day, Li Chaochao asked everyone to pack their luggage and set out on the road, only to see the Shen family and his party waiting at the door earlier than them.

My aunt slept very peacefully all night, she didn't know what happened last night at all, and she got some extra money from the steward Jin, she was more like a relative, and she gathered everyone to go on the road together.

In front of Li Chaochao, Jin Guanjia mentioned to his aunt to live in the Shen family's other property, but the aunt agreed again and again despite Li Chaochao's hints.

Along the way, Shen Xueying didn't fall ill again, except for hiding in the sedan chair, she just stayed in the room and didn't go out when she arrived at the inn.

On the third night, Li Chaochao called Chen Fan and asked about the situation of the Shen family.

Chen Fan said: "My subordinates have investigated clearly that the Shen family's Baozhentang had some contacts with Prince Jing's Mansion, but it was all a few years ago. Baozhentang's business is not big, and it has declined in the past two years. There are indeed some contacts in their mansion. Such a sick man, who has been weak and sick since he was a child, is extremely doted on. He has never shown his face in front of outsiders. I asked a few doctors who saw him. He is indeed seriously ill. He can't see the light. He said he won't live for two years. .”

Li Chaochao tapped the table with his fingers, "These are all on the surface, and it's not difficult to investigate. If you deliberately conceal it, no one will be able to find out."

Chen Fan nodded, "If it's an illusion, it shouldn't happen overnight."

That's right, Li Chaochao couldn't figure it out either. In other words, if they only wanted to deceive her, they couldn't have arranged it for many years.

But Li Chaochao spent the past few days with them, and it was obvious what was true and what was not. There was something wrong with this family.

How can there be so many coincidences in the world that can't be written without coincidences, and they just met on the road by such a coincidence?Who is the man who left?And she went to see Shen Xueying and was locked in the room again, why Shen Xueying's first reaction to her was to kill her!
Don't take her for a fool!

It was another two days' journey, and the board and lodging of my aunt and her party were all paid by Butler Jin, and she couldn't help but be delighted to serve her. When they arrived at the gate of Yongkang, my aunt followed Steward Jin to Shen's house without hesitation. go.

Li Chaochao asked the coachman to drive side by side with the carriage in front.

The main road in the capital is still as wide as in the previous life.

Li Chaochao lifted the curtain of the car and shouted to the opposite side, "Auntie, I heard that the second brother is in the capital, we can't keep bothering the Shen family, I will go to the second brother to discuss and let him arrange a place to live."
