Chapter 38 Trapped (Second Update)_1

Shen Yian had never been a pushover, or he would not have secured the position of Vice Minister of the Central Judicial Office in a mere three years.

The people lurking outside the Shen residence recently were naturally not from the Green Forest, but from the Eastern Palace. However, since he knew His Majesty was concerned about the Green Forest, he pinned the blame on them, prompting His Majesty to send people to assist him.

And what was the discernment of the imperial guards in the palace? How could they not recognize people from the Eastern Palace?

Therefore, his intention was to let His Majesty know that it was the Eastern Palace that was targeting him, thus setting a trap for the Eastern Palace.
