Chapter 48: It's all because of Shen Shuang

After the maid spoke, the atmosphere instantly became somewhat tense.

Chu Shao's expression did not change much, but she was slightly surprised to hear that Shen Shuang had come at the order of Princess Zhao Yang. She smiled and asked, "Who is Shen Shuang?"

Xiao Jin cleared her throat but didn't answer. After all, she couldn't possibly say that Shen Shuang was the chosen concubine in Xiao Shuang's heart.

Old Zhang, who was standing aside, began to feel embarrassed for Xiao Jin.

Shen Shuang, the daughter of the Minister of War, was a famous female hero in the capital, known to everyone.

With her martial arts skills and an extremely strong desire for power, she had managed to stay in seclusion until this day, without ever showing interest in any of the handsome young men from wealthy families in the capital.

However, she had a relationship with the prince when she was young.

When the prince skipped classes at the Guozi Jian to the extreme and even the masters there could not do anything about it, he simply stopped studying the books of the sages and went directly to the military training ground to practice martial arts.

Coincidentally, Miss Shen was also practicing with swords and spears on the training ground.

She was dressed in men's clothing at the time, with the goal of beating all the guards of the same age in the training ground.

But how could the prince, who had always been arrogant, allow anyone in the capital to be more arrogant than him?

So, thinking that Shen Shuang was a man, he mercilessly beat her up.

Therefore, fate is truly amazing.

Yesterday, Xiao Jin had asked Old Zhang about this matter in the prince's mansion, so she knew all about it.

However, Xiao Jin really couldn't understand why Princess Zhao Yang, who said that she had been admiring Shen Shuang for a long time, even though the original owner had just beaten her up when they were young. This kind of relationship should be enemies meeting, especially jealous.

But ultimately, it had nothing to do with her. Considering this, Xiao Jin looked at Chu Shao's slight smile and said calmly, "I had a friendly match with this person when I was young, so she probably holds a grudge against me."

Old Zhang coughed violently.

This was followed by a cold glance from Xiao Jin, which made him cough even more violently.

Chu Shao smiled and said thoughtfully, "It turns out there's a grudge... no wonder Princess Zhao Yang sent her to see the prince."

Xiao Jin frowned slightly.

Although she knew that Chu Shao had dealt with the prince's Stewart last night, she had also heard rumors about an assassination attempt at the prince's mansion, she didn't understand what it had to do with herself, Shen Shuang, and Xiao Shuang.

Chu Shao noticed the frown on Xiao Jin's face, so she dismissed the onlookers and told her about what she had seen last night, omitting the part where she had killed someone and claiming that she had only gone to the Prince's residence to take a look. Of course, no one would believe that.

Apart from the part about Princess Zhao Yang, Xiao Jin actually knew everything else clearly. After all, anticipating that Chu Shao would go after the Fourth Prince, the first thing she did was to pull out the batch of guards that the original owner had previously raised and have them help Chu Shao clean up and provide some cover from behind the scenes.
