For such a big thing that happened in the Ding capital, the entire city was up abuzz with the topic of the case of the extermination of the entire household of the Prince Yu residence. The rumours grew bigger like a snowball accumulating snow and the more the rumours spread out, the more outrageous they became. There were thousands of positions and hundreds of attitudes with so many different types of conjectures. Some people suspected that the extermination of the entire household of Prince Yu was done by the enemy of the Prince Yu's Consort who just married in, in a fit of anger, send the entire household to the grave because of a beauty. Such a rumour was very alluring, as if adding a trace of charming colour to the brutal truth.

Such rumours like this were found everywhere and when one heard it, one may not have any thoughts but in the big river of rumours, there was one that was alarming.

The summary of the rumour was that the matter of the extermination of the entire household of Prince Yu residence overnight came from the Shen family. As the reason to why the General's residence was to do that, the waters were too deep and each officials would think themselves.

Those rumours that were spoken upfront only brought ridicule and sneers to Shen Qing and her family, but these sinister rumours' only intention was to push the Shen residence out to everyone.

The entire household of Prince Yu was exterminated so thoroughly that even a single animal was not spared, but the newly married bride was left behind. What kind of ability and possibility did the new bride had to make the other person spare her life, unless she was originally involved. If it was the Shen family, then everything would naturally make sense. But why would the Shen family oppose Prince Yu, perhaps they were not happy about this marriage but as one went in deeper to explore, with the currently different undercurrent forces in the court, who knows if the Shen family was incited by others or was trying to say something. These ordinary folks are not about to see it but the old seniors in the official circles would not let it go. In a moment, the entire Shen family were pushed to where the winds and waves were the fiercest.

Early in the morning, Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang came over with snacks for Shen Lisa to eat as the entire household of Shen residence had no mood to be bothered of other matters, that even the three meals from the kitchens were carelessly done. Other than Rong Jing Tang's side, everyone else all dealt with themselves so Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang simply went out to buy snacks, hoping that the sweet broth would help Shen Lisa warm her body when she eats.

After having breakfast, Shen Lisa also finished grooming and looked at her appearance in the mirror and slightly frowned before causally speaking to Gu Yu, "Go and bring that fox fur muffler that Eldest Brother sent over."

"Ah, Young Lady thought about wearing that muffler." Gu Yu searched for the muffler in a chest and wanted to put it on Shen Lisa but she stopped her, "I will do it myself."

The muffler was made of a white bodied fox fur and there was not a single mixed fur found on it. It was hunted by Shen Qiu in the Northwestern mountain range. Initially he saw that the fur was precious so he got it made into an elaborate muffler for Shen Lisa, but she previously did not like to wear it so it was placed at the bottom of the chest. One did not know the reason but Shen Lisa suddenly remembered it which made Gu Yu somewhat happy, as it was after all a beautiful fur and to place it at the bottom of the chest without seeing the light of day, would make one feel sorry about it.

When Shen Lisa wore the muffler, Gu Yu praised, "The muffler around Young Lady's neck looks really good as it highlights one's fairness. It also looks nice and warm. Really good."

Shen Lisa's eyes hung down as her hands gently brushed against the soft fur, but she was thinking of the bruising around her neck when she looked at the mirror, as that was the trace that Xie Jungkook left when he choked her. This person did not hesitated at all, she did not notice it yesterday but it was particularly obvious today. Even though all the collars of winter clothes were high, if one was not careful enough and let others see, one fear that Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan would not easily let it go. It was better to have one matter less than one additional problem, so she tightened the muffler.
