The other possibility that she thought of was that Shen Qing didn’t call for help at all. Then why? Did she do it on purpose? Why did she do it on purpose? If it was found out, she would be accused of adultery.
It was especially difficult for women who were accused to survive in this world. Once rumors started, it would be very difficult to put them out.
Shen Miao smiled. “Second Aunt, I think a lot of things are dubious about this matter. Why don’t you send me to the government to interrogate me openly? I will definitely tell them everything I know and let them decide. Maybe that way, we’ll find out who is behind it all.”
“No!” Ren Wanyun and Shen Gui said in unison.
Ren Wanyun said no because if this matter was made public, Shen Qing’s innocence would be ruined. If those rumors spread, she would probably kill herself.
Shen Gui said no, but his thoughts were completely different from Ren Wanyun’s. He was afraid that this matter would implicate Prince Yu. Prince Yu would definitely be furious when he found out that he slept with Shen Qing instead of Shen Miao. If Prince Yu was implicated in this matter, Shen Gui was afraid that his career would be very difficult.
Therefore, the angry couple stopped Shen Miao in unison.
“Then what else do you want me to do?” Shen Miao glanced at the thick whip in Shen Gui’s hand and asked casually, “Do you still want to punish me?”
The people in the room were silent for a moment. Shen Yue stared at Shen Miao in disbelief.
Even Shen Yue could tell that Shen Miao was threatening them!
As if to make her attitude more clear, Shen Miao smiled and said, “Second Uncle, there’s nothing I can do if you want to punish me. However, I’ve always been a stubborn person. When my father comes back, I’ll definitely think of a way to sue you in the court.”
What she meant was that if Shen Gui hit her today, when Shen Xin returned in the future, she would definitely complain about it.
“Second Uncle, if you want to use that whip, please do it quickly.” Shen Miao’s clear eyes seemed to be smiling, and her words were filled with mockery. “After all, there are so many people here. I can’t escape.”
She made the people of Rongjing Hall sound like bandits who were going to lynch her.
Shen Gui did not expect that he would end up being threatened by his niece today. It was not that he could not think of a way to deal with her, but Shen Miao did not give him a chance to react at all from the beginning to the end. She had been talking all the time.
A trace of surprise flashed across Shen Wan’s eyes. His second brother was an old fox in the imperial court. Even his political enemies had never made him so miserable. And the person who forced him to this state was only a 14-year-old girl. Was the first branch… really so indestructible? Shen Wan’s eyes darkened.
