Spring in the East Palace

Chapter 303 Prison Transaction

"Why should I trust you?" Boss Liao asked directly and vigilantly.

Shen Muyin looked at him calmly, and said word by word: "My backer is the Eastern Palace, and the people involved in your case are probably related to the Eastern Palace, so if you don't believe me, then you can imagine the final result."

There was no trace of joking in these words, and as he looked at Liao Yong, he became even calmer.

Liao Yong didn't say anything.

Shen Muyin was quiet for a moment. Seeing Liao Yong's gaze, she didn't say much.

"Besides, I just asked Boss Liao to pass on a message for me." Shen Muyin said lightly, "By the way, let me tell you who Shen Muyin is, then you will naturally believe me, but I don't have much time."

This time, after Shen Muyin finished speaking, Liao Yong had already spoken: "What message do you want me to convey?"

This is equivalent to agreeing.

Shen Muyin was neither anxious nor impatient, and spoke quietly: "I have a servant named Dong Jin next to me. Just tell Dong Jin that I am here."

Liao Yong has countless ways to pass the message, as long as he does it before he arrives at the Heavenly Prison.

These guards have already been bribed, so they can't let Liao Yong out, but they can still pass the message.

Shen Muyin knew that it was probably for this reason that Liao Yongduo was able to persist for a while.

This made it impossible for the person behind the scenes to find evidence, and also prolonged the time it took for these officials to get into trouble.

Later, because there were disturbances in the Palace of Prince Pingxi and the Palace of Prince Xuan, this person had probably become unscrupulous, so Liao Yong was sent to the Tianlao.

The Tianlao Prison always has thousands of ways to force you to sign.

As long as they sign and seal, no matter it is a wrongful case or something else, the other party will never be able to escape.

Thinking of this, Shen Muyin fell silent, but did not show his emotions on his face.

"Is this all Miss Shen asked for?" Liao Yong was also a little surprised.

"Yes." Shen Muyin said in a low voice, "As for everything I said, Boss Liao can find someone to verify it. If you want to cooperate, you can come to me afterwards."

Shen Muyin finished his words calmly.

Liao Yong nodded and then stopped talking, and he didn't look at Shen Muyin again during the whole process.

Shen Muyin sat there calmly, his eyes peaceful, and he didn't care how Liao Yong passed the message. Soon, Shen Muyin closed his eyes and rested.

It's already late today. Even if we have to go through the process, the trial will be held early tomorrow morning.

So, tonight is safe.

By tomorrow, Shen Muyin will be unsure, so he will have to consider tomorrow's events carefully.

According to my understanding of the Shen Mansion, the Shen Mansion wanted to use my status to sow discord between the Pingxi Palace and the Xuan Palace, but now I am sent here, is it to punish myself? Or is it to take my life?

Shen Muyin suddenly felt a little uncertain.

But she thought of the jade pendant. The token of the Pingxi Palace was still hanging around her waist. Her last retreat was the Pingxi Palace.

If the people in the Shen Mansion did not intend to keep me, it proved that it was the intention of the person behind the scenes. What does this mean?

Shen Muyin's mind was working rapidly. Suddenly her expression changed and her pupils widened slightly, as if she understood something.

If the people in the Shen Mansion abandoned him and he didn't know that the jade pendant had been replaced, does this mean that the person behind the scenes actually prepared a substitute?

Replacing his real self, he entered the Pingxi Palace and became Zhan Xiangsi.

So no matter whether it is Zhan Xiangsi or Princess Xuanhe, as long as one of them gets into trouble, the goal can be achieved in the end.

Now, Shen Muyin felt a little creepy.

She forced herself to calm down and just looked at the surrounding environment for a long time. Shen Muyin took a deep breath, closed her eyes and stopped thinking about it.

The dungeon was dark and gloomy, with the occasional sound of guards walking around and the clanking of chains of prisoners.

In addition, there are rats and bedbugs constantly crawling through the prison.

Inside the prison, there was a dead silence that made people feel terrified.

Under such circumstances, Shen Muyin didn't feel sleepy at all and just leaned against the wall with his eyes closed to rest.

Suddenly, the sound of light footsteps was heard, which made Shen Muyin open his eyes instantly and look forward vigilantly. When he saw clearly who was coming, Shen Muyin relaxed.

It’s Dong Jin.

"Miss." Dong Jin called Shen Muyin in a low voice.

Shen Muyin walked to the edge of the prison. Dong Jin, wearing a guard's clothes, was standing outside the railing.

"Heh, the Shen family wanted to take advantage of your visit to Fengdu to attack you. Now the evidence is solid, and the trial will be tomorrow, and then you will probably be beheaded in court." Dong Jin said angrily, "The most important thing is that the Shen family has made this matter so big, everyone in Kyoto knows that you killed Su'er, even the palace has heard about it. The more this is the case, the more people in the palace will be unable to do anything."

This is a dead end.

Anyone who does anything to Shen Muyin will be considered as bending the law for personal gain, but coincidentally, these people are not allowed to bend the law for personal gain.

"I have already sent someone to inform Your Highness as fast as I can, but given the situation in Fengdu, even if Your Highness rushes back, I'm afraid it will be too late. The people in the Shen Mansion will never give you that much time." Dong Jin became more and more anxious as he spoke.

Only Shen Muyin was still standing. Dong Jin's eyes fell on Shen Muyin: "Aren't you worried? Or do you have any solution?"

Shen Muyin watched the situation calmly: "I'll keep it short, you take note of it carefully."

"Okay." Dong Jin nodded.

"First, let's talk about Lan Fang's family. Su'er was killed by Lan Fang. If a mother wants to kill her own son, there must be a reason. If you find the reason, all motives will be destroyed. But it's useless to start with Lan Fang. You have to start from this family." Shen Muyin was very calm and explained word by word.

"Second, find a way to find a coroner from the palace, not from the government office. Mr. Cheng from the government office is in cahoots with the Shen family. How can their coroner perform an autopsy? The murderer will only be me." Shen Muyin continued.

Her eyes became more serious until she finished speaking.

"Third, secretly search the room of Shen Zhenzhen or Lan Fang. If my guess is correct, it should be Lan Fang. Shen Zhenzhen is so cautious that she would not keep such poison in her room. If you find it, pick some, note the location, and make a big fuss about it in the palace."

Shen Muyin's thoughts were extremely clear, and he told Dong Jin his ideas in full.

Dong Jin nodded: "I understand. If there is something wrong with Lan Fang's family, then there is a motive for killing Su'er. If the coroner is one of our own, the coroner in the government office will not dare to talk nonsense. After all, the crime of deceiving the emperor is a crime that will punish the entire family. And if they can find the poison, it proves that they had planned it in advance."

"Yes." Shen Muyin nodded.

Even so, Shen Muyin cannot escape for a while, but it is enough to delay his return to the East Palace.
