Indirect Kiss (Part 1)

Start from the beginning
                                    

To a General, massacring a city was the most brutal form of contribution. And in the city of Xi Rong, other than the soldiers, most of the people were elderly, womenfolk and children. These elderly and weak womenfolk and children were as innocent as the commoners of Ming Qi, and the ones at fault were only the soldiers of Xi Rong. Shen Xin was not one who loved to kill so secretly he kept the lives of those womenfolk and children.

Other than the Shen family's army, no one else knew of the matter and moreover everyone in the Shen family army was brought up by Shen Xin, so there was no reason to betray Shen Xin. Among them, there must be some spies from Shen Yuan. Perhaps very early on, Shen Yuan had buried a few chess pieces in the Shen family's army.

It was because after the Crown Prince was disposed that all the offences of the Shen family were laid bare, so this 'lying to the monarch' offense was not that important. However to Fu Sehun who was always composed, to bring this up before the time was ripe, could only mean that Fu Sehun had already felt the danger in the current situation, and the Shen family had become a variable. In this lifetime because she and Fu Sehun were not entangled, he did not hold Emperor Wen Hui back and kept the Shen family for a few years, thus the Imperial family eyes finally landed on the Shen family, this piece of fat meat.

Therefore the evidence that Shen Yuan gave to Fu Sehun, should be that Shen Xin's offence of not acting according to Emperor Wen Hui's command of 'massacre'.

The matter could be said to be big or small. It was just that in this current situation the Imperial family was bent on recalling the Shen family's military power, so how would they let go of this opportunity?

This matter became much trickier.

Shen Lisa clenched her fists and slowly calmed down her emotions. Currently it was not the worst situation. Even though the Imperial family had the intention to deal with the Shen family, they only wanted to reclaim the military power. The Fu family was very cunning and would not touch the Shen family, as it would inevitably cause dissatisfaction with other aristocratic families.

What did one have to do at this time?

The few people in the room all saw the uncertain look in Shen Lisa's expression and were puzzled in their heart. But then they saw that Shen Lisa suddenly stood up and said, "I want to take a trip out of the residence."

"Ah?" Gu Yu was surprised, "Young Lady, it will be unavoidable for others to talk about it if one were to leave the residence at such a time."

"How about the family have met with misfortune and one is frustrated, thus one head out to a friend's house for some relief?" Shen Lisa's gaze turned cold, "Leave."

Mo Qing naturally had no objection with Shen Lisa's decision. Moreover he was committed in heart and soul to Shen Lisa, and knew that she had her own reasoning. Thus upon seeing Shen Lisa ask such, his heart was much more settled and only said, "This subordinate will go and arrange."

Seeing Mo Qing like this, Jing Zhe and Gu Yu no longer spoke, and let Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang remain in the residence to wait for news as they went out with Shen Lisa.

Naturally Shen Lisa's actions attracted the discussion of the residence's people and when one came to enquire, it was only said that she went out to look for Feng Rose. Feng Rose was considered Shen Lisa's friend and since the Shen family's First household had a mishap, it was naturally for Shen Lisa to go to Feng Rose's to complain. Thus no one obstructed.

After leaving the doors of the residence, Mo Qing lead the carriage towards the direction of the Feng residence. When going through a small alley and confirming that there was no one following, Shen Lisa then said, "Go to Su residence."
