“Sigh.” Shen Gui sighed. “Whether she really did it or not, this matter won’t be that simple. This time, Qing might implicate everyone.”
When Concubine Wan heard that, she said worriedly, “I believe there is always justice in this world.” She said, “Our daughter and I don’t mind being implicated. As long as I am with Master, I don’t care if I live or die. However, Second Young Master has a bright official career ahead of him now, and Seventh Young Master is still young. What if they get implicated?”
Shen Gui’s expression changed, and he was a little frustrated. Although he was selfish, greedy, and lecherous, he still gave his two sons a lot of hope. For some reason, in their generation, the Shen family did not have many sons, and the fact that he had two sons was something that Shen Gui was extremely proud of. To Shen Gui, his daughter was just an item that could be exchanged for benefits, but as for his sons, they could pass down the bloodline.
At the thought that he had to sacrifice his precious two sons for Shen Qing, he was immediately furious.
“I heard that Madam is running around to ask for help to save Eldest Miss now. I really feel sorry for them. If not for the fact that I’m weak, I really hope I can help,” Concubine Wan continued.
“What can you help?” When Shen Gui heard Concubine Wan mention Ren Wanyun, he felt even more annoyed. He said, “It’s all that crazy woman’s fault for raising such a shameless daughter. Now, she even got everyone involved!”
Concubine Wan seemed to be frightened and suddenly shrank back. She stopped massaging his shoulders and paused for a moment before saying softly, “Master, don’t blame Madam. Madam doesn’t feel good either. If Eldest Miss feels hopeless and does something stupid to herself in the prison, Madam’s heart will break.”
Shen Gui said impatiently, “What can she do…” He suddenly paused and said slowly, “Something stupid?”
Concubine Wan’s eyes flashed with a smirk, but her voice still sounded very worried. “As soon as Eldest Miss got married, such a bloody calamity happened, causing her to be sent to jail. Eldest Miss has been pampered since she was young. It’s very likely that she will have suicidal thoughts. We have to send someone to remind her to stay calm.”
Shen Gui suddenly stood up and looked outside. The sun was about to set, and the sky was especially dark in winter. He said, “I’ll go out for a while.”
“It’s already so late. Where is Master going?” Concubine Wan asked.
“I have something to do. Have dinner yourself.” Shen Gui strode out.
When Shen Gui was no longer in sight, Concubine Wan closed the door and walked to the table to sit down. The dishes on the table were in abundance. In this gloomy east courtyard, her food was extremely exquisite. However, no one knew that just a few years ago, she couldn’t even get Ren Wanyun to fork out money to treat Shen Dongling’s illness and the food she ate was all leftovers from other courtyards.
What goes around comes around. In the past, she was the unlucky one, but now, it was Ren Wanyun and her daughter’s turn to be unlucky. Ren Wanyun had made her and her daughter live on tenterhooks all these years. Now that Shen Qing was in prison, she would probably be in a worse state than Shen Dongling in the past.
“Go, call Third Miss over for dinner,” she instructed the maid beside her, and the maid left.
“Madam, will Master really be so ruthless as to do something to Eldest Miss?” Another maid asked carefully.
“Of course.” Concubine Wan smiled charmingly. “He will.” After being husband and wife with Shen Gui for so many years, she knew better than anyone what he was thinking. She deliberately reminded him just now of the consequence of letting Shen Qing live. If Ren Wanyun found out that her daughter was killed by her husband in the end, she would probably go hysterical.

She scooped a spoonful of soup and slowly tasted it.
At the same time, Shen Yuan, who was in Rosy Cloud Garden, put on a cloak and walked out of the Shen family’s door without telling anyone.
