Song Qingshu was startled, and his expression suddenly became strange, "Is the cousin General Shen mentioned Shen Bijun?"
Shen Xiaolong was also quite surprised, "Your Highness knows her maiden name?" It should be known that in this world, the names of the unmarried ladies were known only to the closest people. But on second thought, as a prince, it was reasonable for the other party to know this secret.
"I learned it by chance." Song Qingshu thought, I know more than her maiden name. Suddenly, he thought of something and couldn't help but ask, "By the way, General Shen is a member of the Shanyin Shen family. Why have I never heard of it?"
Shen Xiaolong said with a bitter smile, "Alas, I was unfilial when I was young. I made a mistake and was driven out of the family. After all these years, it's normal that outsiders don't know that I used to be a member of the Shen family."
Song Qingshu thought of his nickname, Three Emotions Taoist Priest. He was afraid that what happened in the past was related to love. It was most likely a sad thing for him, so he didn't ask in detail.
Shen Xiaolong continued, "Although my name was removed from the Shen family's genealogy, I am a member of the Shen family in life and a ghost of the Shen family in death. When the Shen family was in glory, I naturally wouldn't touch the family's glory. But now that the Shen family has been destroyed, I can't sit back and do nothing. Originally, when I heard the news of the Shen family's accident a few months ago, I planned to investigate it. But the Northern Expedition is imminent, and there are unforeseen events in Sichuan. I can't abandon righteousness for a small family, so I can only continue to stay here. Now that the matter in Sichuan is over, it's time to save my poor cousin. "
Speaking of this, he suddenly said angrily, "Cousin disappeared inexplicably, the imperial court's search and rescue operation ended in vain, and then the Shen family was destroyed, but the imperial court still didn't care about it. It's really disappointing!" These words had been bottled up in his heart, suppressed by the values of loyalty and patriotism. But this time, what happened in Sichuan and what happened in Lin 'an made him so disappointed that he didn't have the usual reverence for the imperial court. Instead, he was full of dissatisfaction. Naturally, he couldn't help but pour out the words from the bottom of his heart.
"My condolences, General Shen," consoled Ruan Xingzhu.
Shen Xiaolong suddenly let out a long sigh, "The dead are already gone, but my cousin sister's whereabouts are still unknown. Thinking about her beauty, she must have suffered a lot of hardships and humiliation, but no matter what, I must think of a way to rescue her, only then can I comfort my father and uncle's spirits in heaven!"
Ruan Xingzhu couldn't help but say, "The Crown Princess has mysteriously disappeared. The Imperial City Department has sent so many people, but none of them have found her. Where are you going to find her?"
Shen Xiaolong snorted coldly, "Although I alone can't compare to the Imperial City Guards in terms of numbers, I have more perseverance than them. They only searched for less than a month before giving up, but I can search for a year, a lifetime. Even if I have to travel to the ends of the earth, I must rescue my cousin!"
Ruan Xingzhu sighed and said, "But it's been so long. The crown princess is a delicate and beautiful woman. She's most likely dead."
"Actually, Miss Shen is very safe now." Song Qingshu suddenly interrupted.
"What?" Not to mention Shen Xiaolong, even Ruan Xingzhu looked at him in shock.
"Does Your Highness know the whereabouts of my sister?" Shen Xiaolong asked expectantly.
Song Qingshu nodded and said, "That's right. In fact, I also have a rough idea of the ins and outs of your sister's disappearance."
Shen Xiaolong hurriedly said, "I hope Your Highness can tell me!" Even Ruan Xingzhu, who was at the side, was waiting for him to explain with curiosity. After all, even with the intelligence network under Han Xingzhou's command, they still couldn't find out where Shen Bijun had gone. It had always been an unsolved mystery.
Song Qingshu explained while thinking about the wording, "When Miss Shen was kidnapped, it was because of the Shen family's Deer Cutter. It is said that the Deer Cutter hides the secret of invincibility in the world. Whoever has the Deer Cutter will have the world …"
"Both of you should know that in Lin 'an, Prince Yi has always coveted the Crown Prince's position. How could he tolerate the Crown Prince getting the beauty and a divine object like the Deer Cutter at the same time? So he organized a carefully prepared assassination to kill Miss Shen. But he didn't expect that Xiao Eleventh Lang would come out of nowhere."
"Yelu Yixin of Liao also wanted the Deer Cutter, so he sent Xiao Eleventh Lang over. In the chaos, he kidnapped Miss Shen with the Deer Cutter."
Shen Xiaolong exclaimed, "She was taken to Liao?"
Song Qingshu nodded, and Ruan Xingzhu, who was at the side, had a look of realization. "No wonder we couldn't find any news about her."
"You couldn't find anything? I don't think so," Song Qingshu said with a faint smile. "Later, the Xue Yi people of the Imperial City Department knew that Miss Shen was in Liao. Jia Zhen and Qin Keqing should also know that they went to Liao."
"But they didn't report it to the court," Ruan Xingzhu said with a frown. Said Ruan Xingzhu with a frown. She realized that they were all backed by Jia Shidao.
"Not only did they not report it, but the Xue Yi people even tried to kill Miss Shen," Song Qingshu said calmly. "I saved her from the Xue Yi people."
"What?!" As a general in the military, Shen Xiaolong had naturally heard of the Xue Yi people. He knew that the Xue Yi people never missed. If he didn't know that it was Song Qingshu who saved her, he believed that his sister would definitely be dead.
"Why did the Xue Yi people want to kill my sister?!" Shen Xiaolong was shocked and angry, but he was more confused.
Song QingShu sighed, "This is the ruthlessness of the Imperial family. Because Young Lady Shen is the Crown Prince's Imperial Concubine but was kidnapped for such a long time. She is also an outstanding beauty and even if she maintained her purity, how would the world believe that nothing had happened? How could the royal family allow such a stain on the Crown Princess? "
Shen Xiaolong's gums were about to bleed. "The Shen family has served the country for generations, but the royal family treated us like this. First, King Yi fought for the throne, and then the royal family abandoned us!"
Song QingShu continued, "Actually, I happened to pass by when the Shen family was exterminated. Unfortunately, I was one step too late and didn't manage to save the Shen family …" Then, he recounted what he had seen and heard that night. Of course, he did not mention Huang Rong, who had accompanied him.
"Who was so cruel and merciless to kill the entire Shen family?" Shen Xiaolong's eyes were bloodshot. He hated himself for not being there at the time. Otherwise, he would have died together with the person.
"That person was wearing a mask, so I didn't know his identity. He was also after the Deer-Cutting Knife," Song Qingshu recalled the situation and continued, "Besides, he used the Nine-Nine Pill and the Scorching Flame Pill to stop me from chasing after him. These two poisons are from the Isle of Heroes, so that person should be from the Isle of Heroes."
Ruan Xingzhu took the opportunity to add, "According to reliable information, the mastermind behind the Isle of Heroes should be Jia Shidao."
Song QingShu looked at her approvingly. She was such a considerate woman. In fact, he had told Shen Xiaolong all these secrets to make him hate the court and Jia Shidao, while Shen Xiaolong was disappointed in the court and the royal family.
