Kapitel 659: 657

Zhao Yong and Feng Yang returned to Xiao'er's home and reported everything they had overheard.

"They want to kill me? And it sounds like Shen Jingwen believes that if they kill me, Mrs. Shen could become a decree wife and assume the title of old matriarch?" Xiao'er's fingers lightly tapped the table, deep in thought.

The ones who want to kill her must be those whose interests she has harmed!

Who has she recently affected, or whose path has she blocked?

Xiao'er could only think of one person, and that was General Li!

After all, in this world, the only authority who could bestow a standard-wife title on a woman was the Emperor.

With the current Emperor Shangguan, Xiao'er was confident he wouldn't wish her harm; after all, she had been working diligently to consolidate his rule.

Yet Shen Jingwen stated that Mrs. Shen could be the old matriarch, meaning the person behind all this must have promised Shen Jingwen a high-ranking official position!
