“You!” Jiang Changning’s words made Shen Yao’s face change. She looked around in a panic, seeing that Jiang Changning’s voice had attracted many people to stop and watch, her heart clenched and she almost gritted her teeth.

Shen Yao’s elder brother, Shen Dong, is a Major General in the Army. He is skilled in martial arts, brave and good at fighting, and has made a lot of military achievements at a young age.

It stands to reason that he is young and has a promising future, but such young talent is still single and unmarried.

The ladies of the aristocratic families in the middle of the capital avoided him like the plague, but the girls in the brothel love him very much.

Other than his achievements, Shen Dong loves beauty and spends money like water.

Shen Dong is a frequent visitor of brothels around central Beijing.

For this reason, Shen’s father and Shen Dong had quarreled many times. It was better to find some good-looking concubines from a good family than to hang around places like that.

But how can those well-behaved and good children compare to those courtesans, who are so charming.

Someone said to Shen’s father, how many men are not attracted to those girls? Shen Dong is young and energetic, after this period passes, he will eventually marry a wife.

Seeing that they can’t control them, the relationship between father and son just got worse. As long as his activities were not excessive, Father Shen can only close his eyes.

Who would have thought that a few months ago, Shen Dong met Miss Chunying from Yuchun Tower once. He instantly fell in love with her at first sight. At this point, she will be carried into the mansion in eight sedan chairs as the mistress.

He even fought with another dude in Beijing who fell in love with Miss Chunying out of jealousy, and it became a joke in Beijing for a while.

As the younger sister, Shen Yao’s reputation was also affected. With such an older brother, how could his younger sister be any better?

Shen Yao has strong self-esteem, but because of her brother, every time she goes out to a banquet, she always feels that others are pointing at her. She cried several times due to this.

But she couldn’t resent her biological elder brother. This time, Father Shen made a murderous move and almost beat Shen Dong to death.

The brothel lady saw that she had provoked some trouble, so she asked Chunying to pack up and run away overnight.

The General’s family issues seemed to end with thunderous means, but in fact, they all lost faces.

These few words of Jiang Changning really hit Shen Yao’s heart. Seeing Jiang Changning’s flowery face, Shen Yao’s hands couldn’t help touching the soft whip around her waist.

“If there is nothing else, Miss Shen please make your way.” Jiang Changning lifted the basket, not wanting to entangle Shen Yao, so she pulled Jiang Changyuan and prepared to leave.

Shen Yao was in a fit of anger, how could Jiang Changning just leave like this. She raised her red lips and looked around, and the voice became louder: “Jiang Changning, do you think you are still the daughter of Jiang’s family? Who will believe your fake pure appearance anymore? Are you not leaving in Jiang’s house because you are greedy for Jiang’s prosperity and wealth?!”

“Even if that’s true, what is Miss Shen doing now?” Jiang Changning turned her head and looked straight into Shen Yao’s eyes, her expression was soft and calm: “I know I’m not the daughter of the Jiang family, but you are the one who came to make trouble so brazenly. The upbringing of your family really makes me amazed.”

Shen Yao’s eyes were red, and she no longer cared about her female companion who tried to stop her, and pulled down her soft whip. Her wrist shook, and the long whip crackled in the air.

She walked towards Jiang Changning step by step, clasped her hands and made a “click click” sound from her knuckles, her eyes were reddish and her face was full of excitement: “This Jiang girl is so eloquent, I don’t know if it’s the whip in my hand that is strong or the girl’s mouth is powerful.”

“Big sister, be careful!” Seeing Shen Yao raise her hand, Jiang Changyuan exclaimed. The whip tore through the sky and rushed towards Jiang Changning like lightning.

Jiang Changning turned sideways slightly, the oncoming whip brushed her cheek and landed on the basket in her hand. The bamboo basket fell to the ground, and all the jujube fruit fell out.

“Jiang Girl is very lucky, I don’t know if you can avoid this second whip!” Shen Yao became more excited when the whip was avoided.

She raised her hand with a ferocious face, and when the whip was about to fall again, someone tightly grasped her wrist.

“Nonsense!” The newcomer was dressed in golden-scale armor, with handsome features and a tall stature. A face was somewhat similar to Shen Yao’s.

Shen Yao was startled and was about to get angry when she turned around and saw that it was Shen Dong. She couldn’t help restraining her anger and called softly: “Brother.”

“You still see me as a brother?” He snatched away the whip.

“Brother, what are you doing?” Shen Yao stomped her feet angrily, she reached out to snatch it but Shen Dong grabbed her wrist, and reprimanded her in a stern voice: “The Holy Majesty’s golden tent is not far away. If you raise your whip in public, have you ever thought about the consequences? If someone says that you have crossed the emperor, even if father comes today, he will not be able to protect you!”

Shen Yao’s heart was startled by Shen Dong’s words, and her anger seemed to be drenched by a basin of cold water.

She looked around anxiously, and sure enough, a few steps away, she saw a few Royal guards wearing chain mail, with their hands on their sword’s hilt, looking at them vigilantly.

Shen Yao finally felt afraid and no longer fought for the whip in Shen Dong’s hand. She looked ugly and pulled the girls beside her to leave.

“Miss Shen, did you forget something?” Jiang Changning’s voice was clear and sweet, and Shen Yao heard it like an evil ghost asking for her life.

“Jiang Changning, what else do you want?”

“It’s inappropriate for Miss Shen to just go away after uttering vicious words and insulting my third younger sister first, even trying to whip us.”

“Then what do you want?” Shen Yao disdainfully raised her eyebrows.

“Of course, just apologized to my third sister and me.” Jiang Changning pulled Jiang Changyuan closed, her back was straight, and her eyes were unquestionably determined.

Even Shen Dong at the side couldn’t help but glance sideways.

“Apologize? Aren’t you the fake daughter of the Jiang family? Isn’t your sister the daughter of your aunt? What did I say wrong when you two are of low status and gather like like?” Shen Yao’s throat rolled, and she gritted her teeth as if she had a blood feud with Jiang Changning.

“Whether I’m fake or not, you don’t have to worry about that Miss Shen. As for the identity of my third sister…” Feeling that Jiang Changyuan was trembling slightly, Jiang Changning held her hand tightly, and the warm palm calmed Jiang Changyuan down.

“People can’t choose their own background. My third sister never complains about herself for being a daughter of a concubine. If Miss Shen has a problem with her status, then I suggest that Miss Shen read more books. Naturally, the vision will also be broadened.” Jiang Changning’s voice was not too high, but her words were just enough for the people around her to hear clearly.

A girl who is also a concubine’s daughter looks enviously at Jiang Changyuan who is being protected by Jiang Changning.

Shen Yao’s suppressed anger was suddenly aroused by Jiang Changning’s words, Jiang Changning even said in public that she was short-sighted, how dare she! How dare!

Seeing that his sister was about to make trouble again, Shen Dong’s eyes flickered and he was about to stop her, when a voice came over with a faint pride: “Miss Jiang is right, if you are short-sighted, you should read more books.”
