In the end, he still had to make this move.
…
The first ray of sunlight shone through the carved window on the table. Shen Miao sat at the table and did not move.
Jingzhe came in with a silver basin. As soon as she entered, she was shocked and said, “Miss, why are you up so early today?”
Shen Miao didn’t speak. Jingzhe walked over. The oilmp on the table had already burned out, and there was a faint greenish-ck color under Shen Miao’s eyes. Jingzhe was stunned for a moment before eximing, “Miss, did you not sleep all night?”
Shen Miao shook her head and rubbed her forehead tiredly.
She sat here for the entire night.
Xie Jingxing’s hint puzzled her and made her even more confused. She did not know what Shen Yuan had given Fu Xiuyi, but she knew that it must be detrimental to the Shen family.
Jingzhe said with some heartache, “Miss, no matter how worried you are, don’t torture your body like this. Master and Madam will be heartbroken to see this. Miss, you should eat something and rest first. You really don’t look good. What if you fall sick?”
Shen Miao also felt a little hungry. After thinking for the entire night, she felt a little dizzy and said, “Bring me some porridge. I’ll sleep for a while after eating. Don’t tell anyone about this.”
Jingzhe sighed and turned to run towards the kitchen to get the porridge for Shen Miao. Shen Miao stood up, wanting to wash her face . Halfway through, she suddenly heard footsteps outside the door and saw Jingzhe running back.
“Why so fast?” Shen Miao was a little surprised. It was still a distance from the kitchen to here. Even if Jingzhe jogged over, it would still take some time.
“Miss, something’s wrong.” Jingzhe said in a panic, “Someone from the pce is here. Master, Madam, and Eldest Young Master are summoned to the pce!”
The handkerchief in Shen Miao’s hand fell into the basin. She calmed herself down and said, “I’ll go and take a look.”
In the courtyard, the eunuchs from the pce were delivering the edict to Shen Xin. These people were usually very respectful to the mighty general, but today, their attitudes were unclear. Sometimes, one could tell the emperor’s attitude from the attitudes of the eunuchs. Clearly, entering the pce this time was not necessarily a good thing.
When Shen Miao came out, not only were Shen Xin, Luo Xueyan, and Shen Qiu there, but even Old Madam Shen brought Shen Yuanbai out. However, Old Madam Shen didn’t look concerned at all. Instead, she was gloating.
On the other hand, Shen Wan said to the eunuch, “May I ask why His Majesty summoned Brother to the pce?”
The eunuch looked up at the sky. “I’m just following His Majesty’s orders. I don’t know what His Majesty is thinking. Lord, please follow me into the pce.” He urged Shen Xin impatiently.
When Shen Qiu saw Shen Miao walking over, he was a little nervous. He quickly held Shen Miao’s hand and said, “Sister, why are you here?” Seeing that Shen Miao was looking at the eunuch, he quicklyforted her, “Sister, don’t worry. His Majesty just summoned us to the pce to discuss some military matters. We’ll be back soon. When Ie back, I’ll bring you snacks.”
He was afraid of scaring Shen Miao, but he did not know that in Shen Miao’s eyes, his behavior would only make her more worried. Shen Xin, Luo Xueyan, and Shen Qiu were all summoned to the pce except Shen Miao. The three of them were leading figures of the Shen army. This matter must be rted to the Shen army. Now that the Shen family’s military power was on the rise, they had to be extra cautious.
