The concubine is soft and delicate, making her the treacherous minister's white moonlight

Chapter 142 I will do everything

As soon as these words were spoken, a trace of guilt flashed across Shen Weiyuan's originally calm expression, but he quickly concealed it.

After a long time, Shen Junchi showed no intention of giving up, so Shen Weiyuan had to pretend to be tired, raised his hand to rub his brow, closed his eyes, sighed heavily, and said: "Brother, you are too sensitive, I really just went to deal with Du Yi's matter."

"He is the best fighter among all of us. The palace is heavily guarded. I really had to put in a lot of effort."

Seeing this, Shen Junchi said nothing more, but looked at him with complicated eyes, and asked again: "Where did you go last night?"

"..."

Shen Weiyuan put down his hand that was rubbing his brows, turned away, and looked out the window, "I didn't go anywhere, it was really just a mistake."

Shen Junchi lowered his eyes, thinking about something. He did not ask any more questions. He just gently handed the envelope on his lap to the table in front of him and said, "These are all Du Yi's men. You can decide how to deal with them."

After he finished speaking, he pushed the wheelchair away. Shen Weiyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he never expected that Shen Junchi walked to the door, but stopped again. After a little hesitation, he turned back and said seriously: "Ayuan, you are not very good at lying to me."

Shen Weiyuan was stunned, and a feeling of panic and helplessness surged in his heart. When he reacted and looked up at the door, Shen Junchi was no longer there.

He frowned and placed the case file he had copied from the Royal Archives last night on the table. His worried eyes fell on the carefully folded paper, and his heart was in turmoil...

At this time, the servant who took care of him came out from the study and pushed his wheelchair towards the room. When he got there, Shen Junchi thought about what had just happened in the study and couldn't help but frowned.

He also watched Shen Weiyuan grow up. The two of them were not much different and had always supported each other. He thought he knew Shen Weiyuan very well and most of the time he could really tell at a glance whether he was lying or not.

Although Shen Weiyuan did not admit it, Shen Junchi was very sharp-minded and had some guesses in his mind. Could it be because of that mistress?

In the Marquis' Mansion, Shen Weiyuan never took the initiative to mention the matter of his mistress. Even if Shen Junchi took the initiative to bring it up, he seemed quite impatient, as if the other party was really just a thing he kept for fun on a whim.

But let's ask, what kind of toy can keep people interested for three years? Besides, based on his understanding of Shen Weiyuan, he has never been a promiscuous person.

Now that I think about it, wasn't Shen Weiyuan's evasion every time he asked about it a kind of protection for the mistress?

Shen Weiyuan didn't want him to know, nor did he want others to know. It seemed that he really liked her, but in his impression, Shen Weiyuan didn't seem to have much contact with any girl in public.

While thinking, he suddenly said to the servant behind him: "Send someone to ask Madam Xiao to come over and tell her that I have something urgent to discuss with her."

"Yes."

The servant took the order and turned to leave. Shen Junchi spoke again: "In addition," he paused slightly, and the servant immediately stopped and looked up at the hesitant Shen Junchi in front of him.

After a moment, he seemed to have made up his mind and said, "Go check where the girl that the Second Master keeps outside lives, what her name is, and what family she belongs to."

"Yes." After he finished giving his instructions, the servant responded respectfully before turning around and leaving...

According to Shen Junchi's speculation, he did not come as planned last night, probably because of that girl, and Bai Yun probably knew about the mistress, and maybe even knew her identity.

He didn't care before because this person didn't have a profound influence on Shen Weiyuan, at least he didn't affect their plans, nor did he make Shen Weiyuan do anything irrational.

Shen Weiyuan is already an adult. If he is willing to support her, then let him do as he pleases. As the Marquis of Beiding, he can afford to support a little girl.

He didn't want to intervene, but now it seems that this person still has a lot of weight in Shen Weiyuan's heart, and Shen Weiyuan is willing to take the risk to do other things for her and disrupt their original plan.

His thoughts gradually drifted away, and he suddenly thought of the little girl he sent away a few years ago. He couldn't remember exactly how long it had been, but it was probably about seven or eight or nine years. She was brought back from outside by Shen Weiyuan.

On the surface, he looks cold and unkind, but in fact, he has a kind heart. He has rescued quite a few orphans, and every year he spends a lot of money and energy on disaster relief and helping the people.

At first, when Shen Weiyuan brought the person back from outside, he didn't take it seriously and just thought of him as the same orphan next to him. But later he gradually discovered that they seemed to be getting closer and closer.

If he came back late because of business in the palace, the little girl would wait for him at the door, calling Shen Weiyuan "little brother" in a sweet voice, and would also make some snacks and tea and send them to his room in her free time.

Originally, this would be nothing. After all, there would be many girls who would like a guy like Shen Weiyuan. But the bad thing was that Shen Weiyuan seemed to treat her differently.

The day he brought her back, he changed her name. Everyone in the mansion, including Shen Junchi, only knew that she was called Hua Rong after she entered the mansion.

Shen Weiyuan never allowed others to enter her bedroom, but Hua Rong could. She also never allowed others to touch his personal things, and Hua Rong could do the same. She even remembered that she was afraid of thunder. When she missed her mother, Shen Weiyuan, who was always frugal with words and hated wasting time on worthless things, would actually put down what he was doing to comfort her and make her happy...

This gradually made Shen Junchi realize that this person must not stay with Shen Weiyuan, at least not at that time. At that time, they could only barely protect the Beidinghou Mansion from being divided up by the powerful and wealthy, and that was only possible with the help of several old friends who risked being implicated.

At that time, Shen Weiyuan was young and energetic. Although he had led his troops to win several battles that were originally difficult to defend, it was inevitable that he would act impulsively due to his youthful nature. Shen Weiyuan could do that, but he couldn't. He had to consider the entire Shen family, and Shen Weiyuan was the foundation of the entire Shen family and the youngest patriarch.

So, he sent the girl away while Shen Weiyuan was away. Thinking about it now, he used coercion and inducement at that time. He said he wanted to discuss it with her, but he did not give her the chance to choose.

Later, Shen Weiyuan came back from the palace and searched almost the entire mansion for her. When he learned that she had been sent away by him, he saw with his own eyes that Shen Weiyuan, who usually did not show his emotions, panicked.

He even knelt in front of him and begged him: "Brother, I know what you are worried about. I can assure you that I will do everything well."

"I can't see her, where did you send her?"

"It will be dangerous for her to leave the mansion. Big brother, please find her. I can't find her anymore. I've lost her forever. Please find her! I beg you..."

Shen Junchi hadn't seen him cry so sadly in a long time since his father passed away. For a moment, Shen Junchi did feel a little regretful, but what could she do? She shouldn't have shown up when the Shen family was so busy that they couldn't take care of themselves.
