After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

Chapter 227 Being Suspected

Shen Jinyao said calmly: "Nothing, this is Wuhe Village now."

Shen Jinyao was actually giving Xiang Hongxuan a way out.

After all, even in Wuhe Village, no man would directly knock on a girl's door.

It would have been fine if Shen Jinyao hadn't said anything, but after she finished speaking, Xiang Hongxuan's expression became a little unnatural.

Shen Jinyao closed the door and changed the subject, asking, "What does General Xiang want to see me about?"

Xiang Hongxuan looked away and said, "Want to go out for a walk?"

Shen Jinyao didn't ask anything else, but followed Xiang Hongxuan out.

After the two of them left, Shen Tingyao and Shen Leyao opened the door. They saw Shen Jinyao and Xiang Hongxuan coming out of the hospital door one after another. They looked at each other and then closed the door again.

"Tingyao, what's going on between them?"

"I don't know either. I'll ask Jin Yao when she comes back."

"But, they are no longer engaged..."

Shen Tingyao didn't say anything, but fell into deep thought.

At this time, Shen Jinyao and Xiang Hongxuan were attracting a lot of attention as they walked in the village.

Xiang Hongxuan turned around and the two of them walked into the potato field.

Xiang Hongxuan turned around and saw Shen Jinyao in a red women's dress. He felt that Shen Jinyao like this was so attractive that he couldn't take his eyes off her.

Shen Jinyao: "General Xiang, what do you want from me?"

She felt that what Xiang Hongxuan was talking about must be no trivial matter, but as for what it was, she couldn't imagine.

Xiang Hongxuan: "Pan Ye has found the person who kidnapped the eldest prince and Shen Tingyao."

Shen Jinyao nodded and waited for Xiang Hongxuan to continue.

"Aren't you curious?"

Shen Jinyao felt a little puzzled, "I'm curious."

Xiang Hongxuan looked at Shen Jinyao's unchanged face and continued, "Now all the evidence points to the Second Prince."

Shen Jinyao had already guessed this, but when she actually found out it was the second prince, she was still a little surprised.

Shen Jinyao continued to nod.

Xiang Hongxuan asked: "Why don't you react at all?"

Shen Jinyao's eyes gradually became sharper. "From what General Xiang said, it seems like I should have some reaction."

"I thought about which prince it was at the time. That person must be going after the eldest prince. As for the Shen family, it must be related to that list."

"Now my father knows about this. Besides, we won't be robbed again in Wuhe Village."

"What do these things have to do with a girl like me?"

"As long as we can sell our potatoes, the more money we can make, the better."

"I don't know what General Xiang is trying to say, but logically, the results of the investigation should be shared with my father. It should also be considered an explanation for Tingyao's kidnapping."

"But my father is just an official who was banished to the frontier. Now he has no money and no power. Even if we know who framed us, what else can we do?"

Shen Jinyao didn't give Xiang Hongxuan any chance to speak, and her whole speech even sounded a bit aggressive.

Xiang Hongxuan felt that Shen Jinyao seemed angry.

Xiang Hongxuan's feeling was correct. Shen Jinyao said so much because she was angry.

Because she could feel that Xiang Hongxuan told her this because he suspected that there was something wrong with her.

As for why she suspected her and what problems she thought she had, Shen Jinyao was still unclear.

While Xiang Hongxuan was observing Shen Jinyao, Shen Jinyao was also looking at Xiang Hongxuan.

After he finished listening to her, he just frowned slightly.

"I just feel... maybe I don't know enough about you. I feel like you're a little different from the Shen Jinyao I remember."

Shen Jinyao chuckled and said, "General, you're joking. I was just lying in bed and didn't have the energy to speak. But I'm not stupid."

"The general's words today would make someone who didn't know think that General Xiang was interrogating a prisoner."

Xiang Hongxuan opened his mouth and wanted to explain.

But Shen Jinyao continued, "However, we can't say that. After all, our Shen family will have to live in Wuhe Village according to the general's wishes."

After Shen Jinyao finished speaking, she walked away without waiting for Xiang Hongxuan to react.

At this time, Shen Jinyao's palms were sweaty. From Xiang Hongxuan's words just now, it seemed that he thought she was a little strange.

Shen Jinyao guessed that Xiang Hongxuan probably didn't think that she had traveled through time, but she might have thought that she was being used by some force.

Therefore, he used the matter of the second prince to seduce her.

Shen Jinyao naturally wouldn't fall into the trap, and she lost her composure and restraint.

Let Xiang Hongxuan see that she was really angry about this matter, but this was also Shen Jinyao's gamble.

Bet on how much Xiang Hongxuan suspects her.

From Xiang Hongxuan's reaction just now, Shen Jinyao felt that at least at this moment Xiang Hongxuan felt a little guilty about questioning her.

Xiang Hongxuan looked at Shen Jinyao who was walking very fast and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

This was the first time he saw Shen Jinyao lose her temper. Before, whenever he saw her, her expression was always indifferent.

He thought that perhaps he had misunderstood Shen Jinyao.

Come to think of it, a person who had just recovered from a serious illness and had no chance to interact with other people was exiled with his family.

There should be no problem.

These days, he also arranged people to investigate Shen Jinyao.

But there was no gain.

According to reports from his subordinates, Shen Jinyao either went out of the village to discuss business or stayed in Wuhe Village at all times, and he had no contact with anyone other than the Shen family.

Before looking for Shen Jinyao, Xiang Hongxuan told this matter privately to the second master Shen.

Mr. Shen Er's expression was one of shock and surprise, but just as Shen Jinyao said, he was helpless.

However, Xiang Hongxuan knew that the emperor had a connection with Shen Maoshan, but he had no way of knowing how their connection was.

Even Pan Ye doesn't know.

They only got the accurate information yesterday. It turned out that it was the second prince who kidnapped the eldest prince and Shen Tingyao.

Originally, the emperor asked the eldest prince to return to Shangjing in two months, but after the eldest prince learned the news, he could no longer stay.

He was making a fuss and wanted to leave immediately.

Finally decided to leave after the New Year.

But this sentence did not attract much attention to the eldest prince. After all, life in the military camp was not easy.

So when Xiang Hongxuan and his soldiers were preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, the eldest prince instigated Pan Ye and brought him to Wuhe Village.

The eldest prince came to Wuhe Village simply because he felt bored in the military camp, and also because he thought he could see Shen Tingyao.

After returning to Shangjing, I guess we won’t have the chance to meet again.

Xiang Hongxuan knew that when the eldest prince returned this time, he would definitely fight the second prince to the death.

The reason why Xiang Hongxuan came to the Shen family to find the eldest prince and Pan Ye was just to confirm whether the two had come here.

By the way, I want to test Shen Jinyao's opinion on this matter.

But Xiang Hongxuan didn't expect that Shen Jinyao got angry before he finished speaking.

However, he didn't know that after seeing Xiang Hongxuan and the other two off, Shen Jinyao and Shen Maoshan, father and daughter, continued discussing until the evening.
