Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

Zhong Xingchu stared wide-eyed at Master Shen with a look of astonishment.

Does he even realize how serious the situation is?

How dare he question the Crown Prince like that?

The Crown Prince was also surprised. This Master Shen, despite his title, was just a merchant. He had bought his title.

Ying Yufu raised her eyebrows. She knew Shen Yuanwai's background well. If the Mu family was the richest in the world, they were the wealthiest merchants in Beixuan.

So the Shen family, the Shen family of Jiangdong, is the second richest family.

His wealth is so vast that it should not be underestimated.

However, this Master Shen was only a collateral branch of the Shen family.

Even so, this Master Shen was quite wealthy, and in his youth he was also very handsome; otherwise, Aunt Shiqin wouldn't have been able to win his heart and marry him.

However, she did not expect that this Master Shen would be so bold as to question the Crown Prince even with the evidence against him.

She angrily retorted, "Master Shen, did you hit Aunt Shiqin? And what about Yueniang? She's your daughter!"

"Hahaha, Princess Anguo, have you forgotten that Yue Niang got married?"

Ying Yufu frowned and looked at Lu Changshen. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly saw Master Shen move.

He suddenly straightened up, raised his left arm, and a steel needle flashing with a fluorescent green light flew out from his sleeve with a "whoosh" and went straight for the prince.

Shen Yuanwai's eyes were filled with intense excitement and madness.

"To be continued!"

When Wushuang turned her head and saw this scene, her eyes widened in fury, and she pounced on the Crown Prince.

But the steel needle was too fast, so fast that bystanders couldn't react in time.

Ying Yufu's pupils constricted, and she could neither see nor hear anything else.

She could only perceive the steel needle, and its speed, trajectory, and shape were all slowed down countless times in her perception.

Her movements were as swift as a blur; she pinched the incredibly fast steel needle between her two fingers.

Everything froze. The steel needle was almost touching the prince's brow, but upon closer inspection, there was still a hair-thin distance between them.

At this moment, Wushuang rushed over, gripping the prince's shoulder tightly. She stared at the steel needle on Ying Yufu's fingertip. Her expression behind the mask was unclear, but it was clear that she gasped in fear.

She suddenly turned around, throwing her curved knife with unparalleled killing intent, severing both of Master Shen's arms with irresistible force.

"Thirteen, fourteen!"

She shouted twice more at the air.

shhh-

Two dark figures appeared out of nowhere and, without saying a word, took control of the grieving, one-armed Master Shen.

"Ahhh..."

Shen Yuan's arms were severed, and his eyes were distorted with pain, but the madness in his eyes remained.

"What a pity, what a pity! I was so close, so very close, to killing Crown Prince Beixuan! What a shame!"

As he spoke, he looked at Ying Yufu, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Her movements were so fast that he didn't even have time to react.

She seemed to have done something, yet she also seemed to have done nothing at all.

Ying Yufu gripped the steel needle tightly and examined it closely. The needle was extremely thin and hard, and it was poisoned; anyone who was hit by it would die.

"You are incredibly audacious, daring to assassinate the Crown Prince! This is a crime punishable by the extermination of your entire clan, do you even realize that? Don't you care about yourself, or the entire Shen family of Jiangdong?"

Ying Yufu was also terrified, and her voice became much shrill with anger.

The prince blinked slowly, only then realizing that he had just brushed with death.

"Whatever! That's their fate."

Master Shen didn't seem to care at all.

Ying Yufu frowned. Why would he be so reckless after his crimes of domestic violence and selling his daughter were exposed?

Just as doubts arose in her mind, Wushuang suddenly stepped forward and tore open the clothes of Master Shen at the severed arm. On the upper left corner of his bloody back, a blood-red chrysanthemum mark jumped into view.

Wushuang's gaze suddenly changed. "People from Chrysanthemum Hall!"

Ying Yufu and the Crown Prince also witnessed this scene, and their expressions changed. They stepped forward together, staring at the blood-red chrysanthemum on Master Shen's shoulder.

The chrysanthemums were in full bloom, and at first glance they were actually quite beautiful.

"The Shen family are from the previous dynasty?" Ying Yufu's eyes widened. "That's impossible. The Shen family and the Mu family have always been business rivals, but the Shen family wouldn't be affiliated with the Chrysanthemum Hall, would they?"

"Check if he's disguised," the Crown Prince said coldly.

Upon hearing this, the two guards immediately began to caress Master Shen's face.

Finally, Thirteen found the interface on his neck, near his collarbone.

He ripped off the mask, revealing the face of a strange middle-aged man.

"He's not Master Shen!"

Ying Yufu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, thank goodness.

She genuinely didn't want the Shen family to get involved with Juhuatang.

She frowned. Did Shiqin know that Master Shen had been replaced?

"Where is Master Shen?" she demanded sharply.

Seeing that his identity had been exposed, the fake Master Shen stopped pretending and sneered, "Of course I killed him!"

"Does Shiqin know?"

"That stupid woman naturally had her suspicions, but she had no proof. She just assumed I'd changed my mind, haha!"

"So you were an imposter all along! No wonder you forced me to sell Yue Niang, and even wanted me to sell my daughter too!"

Lu Changshen was completely terrified. He crawled forward on his knees, "Your Highness, Princess Anguo, it was all this man who forced me to do this. I knew it! How could anyone in this world beat their own wife and sell their own daughter and granddaughter..."

I thought he was worse than an animal, but it turns out he wasn't the real Master Shen. Damn it, you killed my father-in-law! I'll avenge him!

As Lu Changshen spoke, he lunged at Master Shen.

Wushuang kicked him to the ground.

She kicked Lu Changshen to the ground and rubbed his neck and face, looking for traces of his disguise.

"I'm not fake, I'm the real Lu Changshen!"

Lu Changshen screamed in terror.

As expected, he was not disguised.

Wushuang tore his clothes again to examine his back and shoulders, but there were no traces of Chrysanthemum Hall.

However, this situation only intensified the malevolence in Wu Yan's eyes.

She raised her hand and slapped the man hard across the face. "You'd be better off being someone from Chrysanthemum Hall in disguise. Even tigers don't eat their cubs; I think you're the real beast!"

"That fake was a fake, and it was bad, but you... you're both poisonous and wicked!"

Wushuang kicked Lu Changshen a few more times in a fit of rage, until he spat out a mouthful of blood before she stopped.

Ying Yufu stepped forward and asked, "Where is Yue Niang?"

Lu Changshen's eyes flickered, clearly indicating he was up to no good.

Ying Yufu retorted angrily, "I heard you came from a small mountain village, and you have an elderly mother, two older brothers, and five nephews and nieces!"

"What...what do you mean?"

"What do you think? If anything happens to Yue Niang, I'll make your whole family pay with their lives."

Don't think I'm bluffing you. Let alone the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, I alone can make your whole family die silently or suffer a fate worse than death!

Don't test my patience, your time is running out...

"The Wind-Helping Tower! Inside the Wind-Helping Tower! This morning, I sold her into the Wind-Helping Tower!"

Ying Yufu froze.

Fengxin Tower, isn't it the largest brothel in the capital?

In her dream, she knew that she would eventually die in the Wind-Reading Tower.
