Chapter 524: Killer Turtle
"Hahaha."
At this time, Shen Zhuang's hearty laughter came from outside the garden. "I'm sorry to have kept you all waiting. I hope you can forgive my negligence today."
As soon as Shen Zhuang appeared, the whole banquet became lively and everyone stood up at the same time.
Seeing this, Shen Zhuang quickly waved his hand and said, "We are all old acquaintances. Why are you being so formal? Sit down, everyone."
Everyone looked at each other and sat down in twos and threes.
"Lan Xi, how much have you drunk?"
The main seat had been vacant for a long time, and the scene was finally opened when Shen Zhuang took his seat.
Shen Lanxi withdrew her gaze without leaving a trace, and poured herself a glass of wine to toast Zhou Yanheng. This wine was spicier than the one he was used to, and it cut his throat and burned his stomach after drinking it.
Guan He was taught a lesson by Guan Lou Tiequan and reluctantly raised his glass to toast.
Shen Lanxi glanced at Jiang Huashan and saw that she had no intention of paying attention to her, so she silently poured a glass of strong liquor. Starting with Guan He, the other juniors also began to toast in turn.
Shen Lanxi had a gloomy face, which was completely different from the cool and clear face when the ice and snow just melted. When Su Yun raised her glass, Shen Lanxi's face was so hot that it hurt her heart.
Su Yun saw that he was not very good at drinking, so she took the initiative to say, "Brother Lan Xi, I drink juice, you can just drink water instead of wine."
Shen Lanxi really didn't want to drink anymore, so she poured herself a cup of tea.
Su Jingliu smiled and nodded, looking around in confusion, "Old Shen, where's A-Ling? We're here to see two generals today, why did you hide the other one?"
Ok?
Jiang Huashan immediately sat up and stretched his neck to look outside the yard.
It’s true, why didn’t Shen Guiling come?
Shen Zhuang's expression remained calm. "The kid got injured while training outside. I asked him to go back and rest first."
Zhou Yanheng glanced at Shen Zhuang and immediately looked away. With such a big commotion just now, the Shen family should have discovered Shen Zhi's body. Shen Zhi was half a member of the Shen family after all. How could the old man of the Shen family still be in the mood to attend the banquet?
It just so happened that Shen Qian and Shen Guiling were not present at this time, so there must be something hidden.
Jiang Huashan also thought of this. Among all the people present, except Shen Zhuang, she and Zhou Yanheng were the only ones who knew that a murder had occurred.
No! We must find out what happened.
"Ah~~" Jiang Huashan rubbed his eyes, "Grandpa, I'm so sleepy, I want to go back and rest first."
She was already well-known for her laziness in Shen Garden, but Shen Zhuang did not blame her. He looked up at Zheng Song and said, "Take Xiao Huaer back."
Not only did he have to leave the table midway, but Zheng Song had to personally escort her just a few steps. Everyone had to once again refresh their understanding of how favored Jiang Huashan was in the Shen family.
Zhou Yanheng took out his mobile phone to check, but the email was still read but not replied. He smiled, and Jiang Huashan's lively and brisk back was reflected in his eyes. Did she really not take him seriously at all?

After leaving the Peony Garden, Jiang Huashan was suddenly shocked and grabbed Zheng Song, "Zheng Song, what happened? Why can't I see Butler Shen?"
Zheng Song stood there motionless, "Miss Jiang, the old man only asked me to take you back to the courtyard."
"You're so reserved, aren't you?" She crossed her arms and squinted her eyes at me for a moment. "Okay. Then I'll tell Grandpa right now that you're a spy and that you just tried to murder me."
"..." Zheng Song's eyes twitched, and his thick eyebrows were almost twisted into a knot. The two men stared at each other for a long time. Finally, the evil man Zheng Song was defeated. "Butler Shen is dead."
"Dead?! How could this happen?" Jiang Huashan feigned surprise and covered her mouth. "Have you found the murderer?"
Zheng Song nodded.
Jiang Huashan blinked, "Who is it?"
Zheng Song hesitated a little, but when he thought of Shen Zhuang's indulgence of Jiang Huashan, he did not hide it, "It's Master A Ling."
"Shen Guiling?" Jiang Huashan's eyes were filled with surprise and sincerity. How could it be him? Could it be that Shen Guiling and Shen Zhi also had a grudge? What happened in between?
Jiang Huashan was eager to find out what was going on today, so she turned around and ran towards the inner courtyard without thinking.
Zheng Song followed behind him, "Miss Jiang, where are you going?"
"I'm going to find Shen Guiling."
Zheng Song raised his hand to stop her, "Master A Ling is not in Zhuyuan now, he is in the ancestral hall."
Ancestral hall? Jiang Huashan was stunned for a moment before realizing that Shen Guiling's crime was murder. Shen Zhi was also half a member of the Shen family. If he couldn't explain himself clearly, his grandfather would probably not let him off easily.
She thought for a moment, then turned and ran towards the ancestral hall.
