Shen Miao nodded. Ever since Shen Qiu found out that she had been to the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop, he thought that she was short of money. Every day, he would pick some exquisite things from the rewards given by the emperor and send them over. He even said to her, “Sister, if you don’t have money, tell me. I’ll give it to you. Don’t go to the pawnshop. My friends will think I’m a stingy brother if they see you going to the pawnshop.”

Shen Miao couldn’t be bothered to explain to him. Moreover, it wouldn’t hurt to have more money, so she accepted his kind offer.

It had been two days since my last meeting with the Chen brothers. She would have to go to the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop tomorrow and wondered if Chen Yueshan and Chen Yuehai had found out about their sister’s whereabouts.

The life of the Chen sisters was undoubtedly very pitiful. Shen Miao found out about this in her previous life. When Fu Xiuyi just ascended the throne, he was very impatient with Prince Yu. After all, Fu Xiuyi was not Emperor Wen Hui who was saved by Prince Yu. As an emperor who had just ascended the throne, having an uncle who only knew how to cause trouble for him was really not something to be happy about.

Three years later, the Chen family finally found out what happened to the Chen sisters. At that time, they attempted to assassinate Prince Yu, but only managed to cripple his leg. Prince Yu still survived and was furious. He put pressure on Fu Xiuyi to investigate who it was.

It was extremely difficult to find out who the assassin was in this enormous world. However, Fu Xiuyi had many connections in the martial world, and there were also martial artists among them. Someone told Fu Xiuyi about the All-Knowing-Scholar in the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop.

Fu Xiuyi did not show up and asked someone to spend a lot of money to buy information about the assassin who attempted to kill Prince Yu, but strangely, the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop never managed to find a clue about the assassin. Later on, Fu Xiuyi personally established an investigation team to look into this matter and found out that the Chen family was behind it all. It went without saying that what awaited the entire Chen family was death.

When Prince Yu had evil designs on her and started cooperating with Ren Wanyun, Shen Miao had already set up this trap. Everything was going according to her plan. Shen Qing being humiliated and her unexpected pregnancy was all part of Shen Miao’s plan.

Prince Yu was too occupied in trying to get his hands on Shen Miao, so the Chen family could take this opportunity to secretly plan and deal him an unexpected blow. As for the royal family, it was even easier to deal with.

In fact, Shen Miao always had a guess. With the ability of the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop, it was possible that they didn’t have any clues as to who tried to assassinate Prince Yu Perhaps the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop did it on purpose. Could it be that the people of the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop were also enemies of Prince Yu?

Therefore, Shen Miao deliberately tested Ji Yushu in the tearoom by saying the word “annihilation”. Ji Yushu was stunned, but he did not reveal a look of excitement or happiness. Clearly, there was no blood feud between Ji Yushu and Prince Yu.

However, Shen Miao, who had died once, had a terrifyingly accurate intuition. Not only did Ji Yushu’s reaction not dispel Shen Miao’s doubts, but it also made her suspect something else. If that was the case, everything could be explained.

Perhaps… the actual owner of the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop was not Ji Yushu.

Then who could the owner be?

Shen Miao couldn’t figure it out. She thought that in her previous life, as the empress, she already knew pretty much all there was to know. Now, it seemed that the water was much deeper than she thought it was.

However, no matter what, Prince Yu had to die. As for Shen Qing, she only deserved to live a life worse than death. In the previous life, Shen Qing even went to see Shen Miao in prison to gloat over her misery, and in this life, Shen Miao would return the treatment.

Shuang Jiang walked in with a flower pot and said with a smile, “The sun was strong yesterday, so I took the flower pot out to bask in the sun. Miss said that it would probably snow in the next few days, but I didn’t believe it. Unexpectedly, it snowed early this morning. It’s all thanks to Miss’s accurate prediction. Otherwise, these pots of flowers would have been frozen.”

“Speaking of which, Miss, you seem to like to predict very much.” Bai Lu smiled and said, “You always prepare things in advance and think about the moves ahead of time. Every time we’re in a critical situation, we can already get out of it unharmed. Miss, your prediction is very reliable.”

Shen Miao smiled, her bright eyes reflecting the sun outside. She said firmly, “It’s nothing. I just don’t like ‘accidents’.”
