The midwife wanted benefits but the Shen family didn't give them, so she slandered Shen Xiu for being pregnant. Shen Xiu's personality was tough, so naturally, she couldn't accept this humiliation. She took out a pair of scissors that she had sneakily taken away when she was at home. She stuck it into her heart and died on the spot.

At this time, Huang Wen and the rest were also dumbfounded. Huang Wen originally wanted to extort some money from the Shen family by extorting them, but he didn't expect that this matter would lead to a person's death. Shen Lian was also dumbfounded. This little sister had watched him grow up. Although she was his little sister, in terms of emotions, she wasn't much different from his daughter. But now, because of the rumors, she couldn't bear the humiliation and committed suicide. Shen Lian started crying on the spot.

He pointed at Huang Wen, Zhao Zhixian, and the others and shouted: ”All of you treat human life as grass and insult my family. Just you wait, I will report this to my superior at the yamen!”

Saying that, Shen Lian left. It was because Shen Lian was too naïve. He forgot to ask Zhao Zhixian to fill in his sister's corpse first and to get the proof of his actual body. He just left the corpse in the hall and left.

After Shen Lian left, Zhao Zhixian went mad with anger. At this moment, he no longer cared whether Huang Wen was the richest person in the Northern Reaches, or what, he was directly sent flying.

Zhao Zhixian was furious. He had been unlucky enough to encounter such an unexpected calamity.

This Huang Wen also knew that he was in the wrong. Moreover, now that he had caused such a commotion, if he pretended to be deaf and mute, then from now on, Zhao Zhixian would no longer be able to sleep peacefully while working as a parent in Beihang County.

Thinking of this, that night, he secretly invited the Grand Master of Zhao Zhixian. After he told the Grand Master about his matter, he offered him three thousand silvers. The Grand Master thought for a moment, then agreed to help him think of a solution.

Later on, Huang Wen found out what the Grand Master's so-called method was. That night, the Grand Master took the silver to the study in Zhixian to discuss some matters with him.

”Master, look. This is what Emissary Huang asked me to bring. A total of three thousand silver taels. Previously, we agreed to split it equally, but I have already kept my one thousand and five hundred silver taels. This is yours. ” The Grand Master chuckled as he said to Zhao Zhixian.

Zhao Zhixian looked at the silver taels, but when he thought of the dead bodies in the court during the day, his heart grew restless.

”Take it back, it's not messy enough.” Zhao Zhixian pushed the pile of silver toward the Grand Master.

”Master, why do you have to go against this silver?” The Grand Master did not keep the money, but smiled and said, ”What you are worried about is that this Shen Xiu Nu died in the court and cannot be dealt with. This lowly one has a foolproof plan. I will see if you dare to do it.”

Zhao Zhixian looked at the Grand Master, then at the pile of snowflakes and silver on the ground. In the end, he still couldn't resist the temptation of real money.

”Tell me, what is your 'one hundred percent chance' plan?” Zhao Zhixian was playing with the silver in his hand. After looking at the quality of the silver, he asked the Grand Master.

”It's simple, we only need to find a pregnant woman and match her corpse with Shen Xiu Xiu!” As the Grand Master spoke, his eyes revealed a trace of ruthlessness.
