In front of the stone table in the Western courtyard of the Shen residence, Shen Miao was playing chess with Shen Qiu.
It was rare that Shen Qiu did not need to practice his swordplay and knew that Shen Miao's chess skills had improved by leaps and bounds. Shen Qiu had been rubbing his palms for a long time just to win against Shen Miao. However the outcome was not as he wished.
Shen Miao placed a black piece and Shen Qiu's tyrannical white pieces were surrounded by the surrounding black pieces and could not get out. Shen Qiu stared blankly for a long time before asking Shen Miao, "Younger Sister, is this not the path that I used in the first game?"
He felt that the path on the chessboard was somewhat familiar and the more he looked, the more surprised he was. Shen Miao was slowly restoring the path that he used in the first game. It was just that Shen Miao used it better. At least in this game, she used this path with great proficiency and murderous aura.
"Giving others a taste of their own medicine." Shen Miao smiled gently, "Eldest Brother, can you think of a countermeasure for your own things?"
Shen Qiu shook his head, "This method of mine is used against the enemy and it is a dead end. Younger Sister let me think of a countermeasure but I am unable to find one."
Shen Miao looked at the crisscrossing path on the chessboard and smiled faintly.
In the previous life, Shen Qiu killed Sun Cai Nan and was imprisoned a few years later, so it was assumed that Shen Yuan's plotting was more or less Shen Yuan's doing. One did not know if the exact same method was used back, would Shen Yuan find it familiar? This dead end that he set for Shen Qiu, could Shen Yuan solve it himself?
It should not be possible.
When Shen Qiu scratched his head and was about to place his piece, he suddenly saw a person rushing in from outside the courtyard. It was the second rank maid who was in charge of sweeping. That maid's face was full of panic as she said in a panic, "Not good, Eldest Young Master and Fifth Young Lady. Second Young Master is outside killing someone!"
"What?" Shen Qiu frowned, and a chess piece fell down. It spun on the ground and finally landed on the ground.
Shen Miao bent over to pick up the chess piece and looked at the maid before asking warmly, "Who did he kill?"
…
In the capital governor's prison, Shen Yuan was locked in the innermost room. His hands and clothes were all shockingly dyed red with blood and his face was also somewhat purple.
This was the first time that Shen Yuan had fallen into such a difficult situation. When he was fighting with Jing Chu Chu's adulterer, one did not know why there was a very irritable feeling in his heart, as if his mind was somewhat hot. By the time he woke up, Sun Cai Nan had already been stabbed to death by his knife and that restaurant was a wooden loft. The battle between the two of them had alarmed quite a number of people and Tao Yuan's and Jing Chu Chu's screams almost immediately exposed this murder case in front of everyone.
Only now did Shen Yuan's heart gradually calm down. In the end, he was too impulsive today.
Shen Yuan had been conceited all his life and what he hated the most was people using his dignity to humiliate him. The matter of the Shen fu's family banquet had already made him feel humiliated enough, but it was because he had not woken up at that time that he had endured it. Now that the entire Ding capital knew that he wanted to marry Jing Chu Chu but Jing Chu Chu was still outside putting on a green hat for him and the people in the restaurant seemed to be pointing fingers at him. Shen Yuan was almost unable to control his anger.
One did not know where Jing Chu Chu was brought to but since this matter started because of her, one think that Jing Chu Chu's ending would not be easy.
It was just that … Shen Yuan was still somewhat strange. How did the people in the restaurant know him and Jing Chu Chu? Why did Jing Chu Chu pick his room when she was adulterer? He faintly felt that something was not right but he quickly shook his head. That place was the place where he and Fu Xiu Yi's people met and other than Fu Xiu Yi's people, no one else would know about it.
Shen Yuan thought deeply that Fu Xiu Yi's people had reached the restaurant and most likely knew about the matter.
At this moment, he had completely calmed down and those flustered emotions had vanished. The bloodstains on his clothes and the gloomy prison did not make his expression waver.
