The Second and Third household of the Shen family were in a mess but it had nothing to do with the First household at all. When Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan came back this time, they already had some complaints about the other two households so naturally they would not rush to help. Everyday they would practice swordplay in the residence or go out to visit old friends and it was considered to be a comfortable life. Shen Qiu was also brought along by Shen Xin to gradually come into contact with the officials. As Shen Qiu's military merits became more and more abundant, there would be a day when Shen Xin's position would be Shen Qiu's turn to sit.
As for Shen Miao, after resting for a while, she once again went to Guang Wen Tang.
As it was nearing the end of the year, the teachers in Guang Wen Tang had slacked off a lot in their lessons. The teachers also knew that at this time, the students were not in the mood to study so they conveniently gave a good impression. Shen Miao did not go for many days but did not fall behind in her homework. On the contrary when those students saw her, they started to discuss spiritedly.
Shen Qing's matter was in an uproar but no one in the Shen family had any opinion on it. Early on after the incident in Prince Yu residence, Shen Yue was ordered by Chen Rou Qiu to stay in the residence and not go to the academy, so as to avoid any mistakes. Thus when Shen Miao came, everyone had the interest to inquire.
Yi Pei Lan said, "Oh, Shen Miao. You actually came? Why are you not wearing plain clothes? " She deliberately raised her voice, "Ai, it is no wonder. At the beginning Shen Qing and you two sisters also had many frictions but one fear that you were not that upset."
Yi Pei Lan and Shen Qing were good friends and wanted to help Shen Qing vent her anger thus the words that she said were naturally filled with a hundred and twenty percent malicious intent. Everyone looked towards the door and saw Shen Miao wearing a dark black long dress with a simple jade bracelet as her jewellery, making her look somewhat cold. In fact it was not too much to dress up like this but compared to Shen Yue's plain white long dress with a small white flower on her head, it was slightly inferior.
"Ming Qi's law states that when there is a funeral in the family, one must wear white clothes when the elder has passed away. Could it be that Young Lady Yi does not know how to calculate seniority? Eldest Sister is my sister but not my elder. "Shen Miao answered without even turning her head and walked to her own seat to sit down.
When Feng An Ning saw her, she seemed to be very excited, as if she had a stomach full of questions to ask her. When Yi Pei Lan was stabbed by Shen Miao, she was unable to restrain her anger and said without thinking, "Shen Miao, do not try to be a good person. Initially it was you and Shen Qing who did not get along and when Shen Qing was in trouble, you were secretly happy in your heart. Otherwise why would your Father and Mother who are Shen Qing's Uncle and Auntie not lend a helping hand when Shen Qing was imprisoned?"
When the words were spoken, everyone's eyes immediately looked towards Shen Miao, as if waiting for her to answer this thorny question. That's right, when Shen Qing was imprisoned, Shen Xin indeed did not lend a helping hand. Otherwise, with Shen Xin's meritorious service, he would still be able to speak in front of the Emperor. At the very least, he would be able to help Shen Qing fight for some time. At the very least, Shen Qing would not have felt so hopeless and helpless in prison that she hung herself.
Shen Miao's eyes turned cold and suddenly turned to stare at Yi Pei Lan. When Yi Pei Lan was stared at by her, she unconsciously felt a chill. Before she could speak again, she heard Shen Miao's mocking voice ringing, "Young Lady Yi and my Eldest Sister have always had a deep sisterly relationship, and one think that Young Lady Yi would be very upset for Eldest Sister. But at the beginning my Second Shen hoped to rescue Eldest Sister and came to the Yi residence to invite Yi Furen for a chat, hoping that Yi Furen would be able to persuade Yi Daren to help, but I remember that at that time Yi Furen claimed to be sick and refused to meet. "
Yi Pei Lan was surprised for a moment before her face flushed red. The surrounding students looked at her with deep meaning in their eyes. She stuttered, "That, that is because my Mother is indeed sick!"
"Since Yi Furen could claim to be sick at this juncture, why can't my Father and Mother claim to be sick at this juncture?" Shen Miao did not care. Her words did not contain a single dirty word but she ruthlessly humiliated Yi Pei Lan. Shen Miao continued speaking, "Since it is something that Yi Furen is unable to do, why would Young Lady Yi force others to do it? My Eldest Sister is in prison and even her closest relatives, Second Shu and Second Older Brother, are unable to do anything. You think that it is easy to rescue her. Young Lady Yi, one's mouth only has two pieces and it is easier said than done. Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you. If next time you want to teach others a lesson, please do it yourself first before saying anything! "
