"Very simple. The Chen family's younger sister is still alive and Prince Yu residence has an impenetrable defense. If you rashly go in like this, one fear that you will beat the grass and alert the snake. If you want to know if my words are true, you can go to Prince Yu residence and kidnap one of the purchasing servants and ask if there is a female that sells night incense in his residence. You will know after asking your own younger sister."
As soon as he said this, the two Chen brothers swayed, unable to conceal the pain on their faces. Ji Yu Shu sighed in his heart. Shen Miao spoke in such detail and with such certainty, this news was most likely true.
"You …" Chen Yue Hai stared at Shen Miao and suddenly said, "Since you know about this matter, why did you not save her? You watched helplessly as she fell into the pit of fire, yet you refused to help her. Instead, you calmly came here to trade information. You … "He slammed the table." You're so heartless! "
"Yue Hai!" Chen Yue Shan reprimanded him in a low voice and cupped his fists towards Shen Miao, "Sorry Shen Young Lady, my Second Younger Brother is too sad and hope that Shen Young Lady does not mind." Even though his words were polite, the trace of complaint in his eyes towards Shen Miao was seen by Shen Miao.
After a moment of silence, Shen Miao did not get angry but instead laughed and looked at Chen Yue Hai, "How does Gentleman Chen think I should help? I'm just a defenseless girl, what ability do I have to save her from the fiery pit? Would she disregard her own safety and sneak into the prince's residence, or would she give up her life to fight for an opportunity like her sister? Today, I will say that if that person is my biological sister, I can save her. But to me, she is just a stranger. Dare I ask Young Master Chen, would you risk your life for a stranger? If you dare, I will respect you as a man. It's a pity that I'm such a cowardly and narrow-minded woman. Why should I be a good person? "
Her words were said so quickly and anxiously that the Chen brothers were actually rendered speechless by her and Ji Yu Shu's mouth was wide open. He did not know why but he felt that Shen Miao was suddenly angry just now. Shen Miao's words were also full of sarcasm. That's right, if the world was filled with good people who were willing to risk their lives for strangers, then the world would not be so difficult. Shen Miao was just a little female so what ability did she have to help the Chen sisters to escape?
Shen Miao coldly looked at the two brothers opposite her. Just now her emotions were somewhat out of control. It was just that now what she hated the most was other people using righteousness to threaten her. In the beginning for the common people of Ming Qi and for Fu Xiu Yi, she volunteered to be a hostage in the Qin country and when she returned to the Palace, what awaited her was the indifference of the Emperor. Her Shen family, for the righteousness of the country, assisted the Emperor and what she received was the execution of the entire family. Why did they have to pay for everything? Why did she have to be the savior? The Chen sisters were indeed very pitiful. When she was banished to the Cold Palace and had nowhere to go, she was also pitiful when she couldn't even protect her children. But who reached out to help her?
In this world, no matter how difficult life was, one had to walk on their own. No one should save others.
Chen Yue Hai was silent for a long time before speaking to Shen Miao, "Just now my words were too heavy. Shen Young Lady, I am sorry."
Shen Miao calmed down her emotions and said, "My news ends here."
"We two brothers believe Miss Shen's words." Chen Yue Shan said, "But the most urgent matter is to first investigate the whereabouts of my Younger Sister. If my Younger Sister is found, the Chen family will definitely reward with ten thousand gold."
"I have already said before that there is no need for ten thousand gold and only need to form good karma." Shen Miao said, "But … I have a sentence that I do not know if both of you are willing to hear."
"One would like to hear the details." Chen Yue Shan cupped his hands.
"Prince Yu of the First Rank haggles over every penny and is narrow-minded. If anyone provokes him, he would definitely retaliate. The Chen family has a big business but when compared to the Imperial family, they are still a head shorter. One think that both of you not only want to rescue the Chen sisters, but also want to take revenge for the Chen sisters. "
