Xie Jingxing said, “Before that, let’s deal with the Ye family first.”

“The Ye family?” Shen Miao said, “Are you planning to wipe out the entire Ye family?”

Xie Jingxing snapped his fingers. “What’s the use of keeping them? I’ll keep Ye Mei and her brother and give them to you. You can do whatever you want with them.”

Shen Miao took his hand. Xie Jingxing still had her red string around his wrist.

She said, “You have to be careful.”

Xie Jingxing and Shen Miao’s guess about Fu Xiuyi was confirmed the next day. No one expected Fu Xiuyi to be in such a hurry to make a move.

Shen Qiu’s letter arrived.

Previously, the letters were all about Shen Xin and the others’ daily lives. However, this letter looked very disorderly. Clearly, it was written in a hurry. It took a lot of time for this letter to reach Shen Miao.

Shen Miao and Xie Jingxing read the letter at a glance and were both silent.

Fu Xiuyi had started to make a move, not on the Daliang Dynasty, but on the Shen family.

Emperor Wen Hui was seriously ill and asked Fu Xiuyi to supervise everything in the imperial court. Fu Xiuyi fabricated evidence against the Shen family and wanted to annihilate them. When the Shen army was taken back by the Ming Qi royal family last time, it was completely changed. There were many spies planted in the army and it could no longer be used by Shen Xin.

Fu Xiuyi deceived the people of Ming Qi and attacked the Shen family. This time, Shen Xin was already prepared. He had already started to secretly team up with other court officials who were dissatisfied with the Ming Qi royal family. Although those court officials were insignificant, it was still much better than fighting alone. Secondly, Luo Lianying and Luo Liantai, who were far away in Spring City, also rushed to the capital with the Luo army. The Luo army was raised by the Luo family. In addition, they had been trained by Shen Xin in the past few years, so Shen Xin was quite familiar with the Luo army. Apart from these, there were also the people Xie Jingxing left in the capital.

At this moment, everyone in the Shen family finally knew Xie Jingxing’s identity.

Although Xie Jingxing’s men were not many, they were all the best ones and were extremely good at gathering information.

Fu Xiuyi probably thought that he could take down the Shen family in a short period of time, but he did not expect the Shen family to be well-prepared for this day.

In the letter, Shen Qiu said that the Shen family was now at odds with the royal family and had left the capital. Although Fu Xiuyi’s men had been pursuing them relentlessly, the Shen family had never let them gain anything. Now, Shen Xin was discussing with the court officials if they should remove this bastard from the throne.

Shen Qiu did not mention the outcome of this discussion. Shen Miao also knew that the Shen family had been loyal for generations, especially Old General Shen. Now that they had become enemies with the royal family, if they really succeeded, who would be the emperor? The princes of Ming Qi were all not good people, so they might as well make themselves emperor. However, Shen Xin would definitely not have this thought.

At the end of the letter, Shen Qiu mentioned something.

The Shen family was not in the capital now, because the capital was filled with Fu Xiuyi’s people. The Shen family would only be at a disadvantage. They retreated to the Hanguan Valley where they found many people from the State of Qin in the villages around it..
