Chapter 704 Sun Clan

"Ah? You bribed the people from the Chen Mansion?" Chen Lanxi was completely stunned, "When did it happen?"

She just stayed in the harem and relaxed for a few days to cook pastries, and he had even arranged the hidden lines?!

This progress is too fast...?

It is not difficult to find an insider in the Shen Mansion. Some benefits are always there, and some people are willing to help find some information. But it is not easy to find someone who can find the secrets in the owner's house.

He must have a status in the Shen Mansion and be trusted...

Such people are often loyal elderly people. How did he take down people in just a few days?

As his mind moved slightly, Chen Lanxi held Xiao Ciyu's hand and tightened it, and his voice was filled with a hint of worry: "Are you sure that that person can do it? He won't tell Chen Cangxu about it?"

"I can't say that I am very sure, but there are still eight or nine points." Xiao Ciyu pursed her lips and looked sideways. "The person I bribed is the concubine Chen Cangxu just included in the mansion not long ago."

"It's her..." After Xiao Ciyu mentioned this, Chen Lanxi remembered such a person.

Since Chen Cangxu and Xu Xian Cui were separated, they have taken a concubine Sun at home to fill the gap in their hearts.

When Sun entered the Shen family, Chen Lanxi had been in the palace for a while. Therefore, she didn't know much about this newly-entered concubine of the Shen family.

In addition, the concubine's status was low and it was not convenient to meet Shengyan, so the one or two times she and Xiao Ciyu returned home only looked at the man from afar.

Speaking of which, apart from knowing that the concubine's family is not well-off and her appearance, she has no extra knowledge about her...

As Chen Lanxi thought about it, Xiao Ciyu spoke slowly and continued, "That day, after you handed Chen Cangxu the letter from Chen Cangxu into the palace to me, I will let Chen Cangxu go back to think about the reasons for Chen Yunqing's affairs.

"After that, I instructed Zhou Deshun to check the family background of the Shen family concubine, find a way to bribe her and ask her to help observe Chen Cangxu.

"It's also good luck. The Sun family was also a scholar with some knowledge. Her father used to be a scholar and taught in a school in the north of the city. The family lived a pretty good life.

"But, her family has a son who is addicted to gambling.

"Since Sun's brother became addicted to gambling, their family's life changed. The man was crazy about gambling and thinking about turning the tables all day long. Not only did he spend all the money he saved for marrying a wife, but he also sold all the valuable things at home.

"The old man was angry that he did not fight and wanted to teach him a lesson, but the scholar who was nearly a year old and knew his destiny was not the opponent of a young man who had just passed the twentieth crown?

The two had a fight, and the old man fell ill that day. Not long after that, he died."

"What then?" Chen Lanxi's hands tightened.

She had roughly guessed something, but her heart was still not up or down.

"Then the gambling son finally settled down for a while because of his father's death. But..." Xiao Ciyu suppressed the corner of his mouth, "You also know that it is difficult for him to be really pulled back if he is so obsessed with it.

"After a long time, the pain of his father's death faded, and he followed his friends and went to the gambling house to gamble.

"And, the more you bet, the bigger the gamble, you can't pay back the money in the end, and you're knocked to the door.

"His father is gone, and his mother feels sorry for her son. When she hears those who come to the door say they want to chop her son's hand, she immediately loses her opinion.

"In the end, I chose to push my daughter out and repay the debt."
