Chapter 2 Going Home

After returning home, Si Yan got off the carriage after Guan Fu had cleared everyone around him.

Guan Fu looked at the injury on Si Yan's leg and couldn't bear to say.

"General, there's no way you can hold on like this. Why don't you find a doctor to treat you?"

Si Yan didn't even blink, as if the bleeding leg was not his, and spoke calmly.

"That's not what it's about."

Guan Fu wanted to know the general's plan, so he couldn't help but shut his mouth. He glanced at the carriage from the corner of his eye and felt worried again when he thought of the man above.

"General, what are the girl's arrangements?"

Guan Fu followed Si Yan when he was a new recruit. He knew everything about him, and he also knew 70% to 70% of it.

In the early years when the censor of Shendu was still alive, he had taken care of Si Yan. Logically speaking, they should take care of the benefactor's daughter.

But even he knew that Shen Yudu's daughter was mute. Could this girl be a fake?

"When I go out today, I forget everything I did here. Can you do that?"

"Who are they over there? They can't be the same gang from yesterday..."

"Lock someone to the dungeon. Go and investigate her matter yourself. If there is any doubt, kill her without mercy."

Shen Li quickly got up and was about to walk out, but when she passed by Si Yan, she was suddenly blocked by the sword in Si Yan's hand.

Seeing her loyal look, Si Yan twitched the corner of his mouth, looked at her suspiciously for two seconds, and waved his hand impatiently.

If I remember correctly, that should be her stepmother. Shen Li's biological mother died early, and her father remarried, so he chose the Zhong family, who was knowledgeable and courteous.

But when I thought about it carefully, I realized that it was not such a coincidence. There were only a few people who knew about this trip back to Beijing, and they came back through a small road. If this girl was sent by the enemy, how could she appear so accurately?

Shen Li's heart moved, but she was not sure whether these people were her family or the gangsters from yesterday.

Not long after, the chain of the cell door was opened, and Shen Li met Si Yan again after a night.

…

Early the next morning, hearing the noise outside, Shen Li opened his eyes in a daze and got up from the cold, damp ground.

"mother!"

"Thank you, sir."

But before she could find a chance to speak, she saw Jin Changqing blocked by a woman.

Shen Li worked up her emotions, almost ran over, and shouted with tears in her eyes.

"Sir...what's wrong?"

It didn't take long for Shen Li to return to the mountain road he took yesterday. It was still not bright yet, and there was a thin mist floating outside. He could vaguely see a few stars shining, as if someone was looking for someone with a torch.

After Jin Changqing saw Shen Li, his expression was complicated, and he hesitated for two seconds and walked over.

Zhong Ning raised his hand tremblingly and touched Shen Li's cheek, the shock still lingering on his face.

"You...can you speak out?"

Si Yan lowered his eyes and stared at her, and the words he spoke were extremely threatening.

I don’t know how someone like Shen Hai could raise such a glib daughter.

The stepmother looked like a little girl with a face full of collagen, not much older than her.

Looking at the handsome man in front of him, Shen Li sneered in his heart, but now he was concerned about why he ran so fast yesterday.

It was originally a good match, but it was a pity that her father had just married someone into the family, and before they had time to get married, he left for the border because of an urgent order, and never came back.

Guan Fu was already urging people to get out of the car.

Shen Li blinked and understood. It sounded like they were not just acquaintances, but they might also have some connections.

She turned around slowly, was stunned for two seconds, and then hugged Shen Li who ran over.

At this time, the people around had already noticed the movement here and gathered around.

Shen Li slowly turned her neck and looked at the man who was just a few feet away from her. Although she was greeting his eighteen generations of ancestors in her heart, she still had a well-behaved look on her face. She blinked and asked.

Zhong Ning spent the whole night looking for someone in this place, and his face turned pale from exhaustion. After hearing the word "Mother", he thought he was hallucinating.

Shen Li looked at Zhong Ning from close range, and suddenly felt that the "mother" just said was a bit hot.

Zhong Ning held Shen Li's hand, her lips trembled twice, she nodded heavily and murmured.

Shen Li breathed a sigh of relief. She thought it was something, so she nodded without hesitation.

She jumped off the carriage nimbly, thanked Guan Fu and walked into the fog in front of her.

Si Yan's face was indifferent, he only glanced at Shen Li lightly, and then ordered Guan Fu behind him.

Shen Li glanced over and saw the woman glance at her with disgust. At the same time, she pulled Jin Changqing back a step and covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.

She huddled in the corner, watching the figure approaching step by step.

The Holy Father considered Father Shen's contribution and gave him the posthumous title of Prince Anding. However, the Shen family only had one daughter, who could not serve as an official in the court, and the title was just an embroidered pillow with no name.

Shen Li sat firmly and asked timidly.

Before she finished speaking, Guan Fu seemed to understand what she was thinking, shook his head and said.

But now that the words have been spoken, Shen Li can only bite the bullet and continue.

"It's impossible. Those grandsons were dealt with badly yesterday. They won't come out and play around recently."

Si Yan had exactly the same concerns as him. He stood there for two seconds with his hands behind his back, and then spoke.

Although she had no father or mother, in Shen Li's memory, her stepmother was very kind to her. The two of them lived in seclusion and lived comfortably.

But this is not something Shen Li can inquire about. Some things are better known as little as possible.

Guan Fu nodded, "Listen to the order."

But when Shen Li thought of that man, especially his eyes that seemed to see through everything, she felt terrified all over.

Shen Li felt a little uneasy. Logically speaking, she was Shen Li herself, and she was not afraid of the man investigating her.

"Li'er, are you okay?"

"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back."

When Shen Li heard that she could leave, she didn't even feel hungry anymore. She forced a smile and said respectfully.

"I promise not to mention it once I get out, and I will definitely take a detour wherever your Excellency shows up in the future. Your life-saving grace will never be forgotten by this little girl."

"Yes, yes, I promise."

Shen Li tiptoed closer to the crowd and immediately saw the face that overlapped with her memory.

Shen Li was afraid that he wouldn't believe it, so she even raised her finger and swore to God.

"Send her to the place where yesterday's accident occurred in a moment."

"While escaping, I accidentally rolled down the mountain and fell asleep all night. When I woke up this morning, I was able to speak. Mom, do you think this is a blessing in disguise?"

"Okay, we've found the person, let's go back quickly."

Shen Li didn't have a deep impression of her and couldn't remember her name for a while, but looking at this scene, he knew she was Jin Changqing's mother and his original mother-in-law.

After finding someone, she naturally shouldn't stay in this wilderness for too long. Although Zhong Ning didn't want to leave Shen Li, she believed that Shen Li was already married and should be a member of the Jin family. Of course, she should follow the Jin family.

But when she was sending Shen Li to Jin's carriage, she was suddenly blocked by Jin's mother.
