Madam Geng was sent out of the palace. Apart from the wounds she had inflicted herself, many people saw that she was sent back to the Geng Mansion with a rosy complexion.
Although Geng Liangcheng was guilty of treason and had already died, his final punishment had not yet been announced and his mansion had not been confiscated.
Mrs. Geng returned home in a panic, with Shen Xihe's words "Since you miss him so much, then go and accompany him" all she could think of in her mind. These words were so plain, yet they made her terrified and filled with murderous intent.
She waited until dark before stealthily leaving Geng's house and going to an abandoned temple. She left her token there and returned to Geng's house soon after.
Mo Yu, who had been following all the way, also returned to the palace to report to Shen Xihe.
"Have you gotten close? Did you notice anyone there?" Shen Xihe asked.
"I didn't get close to her. I just guessed that she must have gone here. I didn't notice anyone around, and she didn't leave anyone to guard her." Mo Yu replied.
Shen Xihe nodded with satisfaction: "Go down and have a rest, you don't have to be on duty."
Only by not getting close and not leaving anyone behind can you make the vigilant people relax their guard. Only by not alerting the snake can you easily catch it.
After everyone left, Shen Xihe was still standing in front of the window, gazing at the moon and thinking. Xiao Huayong suddenly came from behind her and hugged her sideways: "The good night is short, Yoyo should only think of me."
All of Shen Xihe's thoughts were interrupted by Xiao Huayong. She looked at him with deep black eyes, just like his back, as if something wanted to break out of the cage. Xiao Huayong was addicted to the love affairs between husband and wife. Although Shen Xihe had tasted all kinds of pleasure, she still felt ashamed. However, she could not refuse this man who was particularly strong and domineering in bed.
The icy silk has faded away, the skin is as white as jade, and the peaks and mountains are proudly rising up like red peaches;
The shadows of brocade and bamboo mat overlap, and the clouds disperse as I pick flowers and play with the moon.
While dressing up in the early morning, Shen Xihe saw that her eyebrows were charming and her eyes were affectionate. She was frightened by herself in the mirror and slammed the mirror shut.
Xiao Huayong walked over leisurely, picked up her rouge, powder, and eyebrow pencil, and wanted to put on makeup for her.
Shen Xihe glared at him, but he smiled more smugly. However, he managed to conceal the lust between her brows, so that she did not have to continue to endure Shen Xihe's knife eyes.
The people on Mrs. Geng's side were very cautious and did not contact them for several days. It was not until Shen Yueshan and others discussed and concluded all of Geng Liangcheng's crimes that the Geng Mansion was sealed off. Mrs. Geng did not want to divorce, so she wandered around for several days. Then that person showed up. Even though he was so cautious, he eventually fell into Shen Xihe's hands.
"Give me your accomplices and I can give you a quick death." Shen Xihe said in a calm voice as he sat in the dim room.
The tied man hung his head and said nothing. He had been drugged and felt weak all over. Even if he wanted to commit suicide, he couldn't. He could talk, but he wouldn't open his mouth.
Shen Xihe waited for a moment before nodding to Mo Yu. Mo Yu held a red-hot copper pot with pliers and hung it in front of the man. Zhenzhu grabbed his arm and threw his soft palm onto the copper pot.
"Ah—" The burning pain made even the most trained person scream out sharply.
But before he could finish shouting, Pearl grabbed his arm and pulled it again, leaving a layer of flesh on the copper pot. There was a pool of salt water next to it, which quickly soaked his arm in it again.
