649 Matchmake Shen Miao (6)
Xie Jingxing glanced at him and sneered. “I overestimated the person sent by my brother.” His tone was filled with mockery. “I thought you got tough bones. How boring.”
Ji Yushu couldn’t help but ask the guard, “What does His Majesty want you to do to Fifth Miss Shen?”
This person was caught at the entrance of the Shen mansion. Fortunately, Xie Jingxing sent his people to keep an eye on the Shen mansion all day long to prevent any accidents from happening. This person was extremely skilled in martial arts and was quite vigilant. Xie Jingxing’s men waited for a few days before catching him.
The guard wanted to say something, but when he met Xie Jingxing’s devilish smile, he couldn’t help but feel a chill run down his spine. In the entire royal family of the Daliang Dynasty, this Prince Rui, who always looked handsome and apathetic to everything, was the one who was the most difficult to deal with. Two years ago, when he returned to the Daliang Dynasty, many forces in the court were secretly planning to deal with him, but they were all eliminated by Xie Yuan one by one. His methods were merciless and he was unfathomable.
Under his penetrating gaze, the guard no longer dared to hide anything. He came clean about why he was here. “His Majesty knew about Fifth Miss Shen and was afraid that Your Highness is lingering in Ming Qi because of Fifth Miss Shen, so His Majesty sent me to investigate… He didn’t ask me to hurt Fifth Miss Shen. He just wanted me to investigate…”
Gao Yang and Ji Yushu both had a complicated look on their faces. Although Emperor Yong Le was in the Daliang Dynasty, he might have spies in the capital of Ming Qi. After discovering the relationship between Shen Miao and Xie Jingxing, with Emperor Yong Le’s personality, he would not allow anything that was not part of his plan to happen. Shen Miao was from Ming Qi after all, and her identity would bring many variables. From the looks of it, Emperor Yong Le wasn’t just going to let Xie Jingxing do whatever he wanted.
However, the most troublesome thing was that these two brothers were both stubborn and would never change their minds. If Emperor Yong Le tried to stop Xie Jingxing, Xie Jingxing would not give in even if the world was turned upside down.
As expected, when Xie Jingxing heard that, he smiled and said, “Oh? Since you’re just here to investigate, there’s no need to lock you up. I’ll send you back to the Daliang Dynasty.”
The guard was slightly stunned. Before he could speak, he heard Xie Jingxing’s voice above him. “Do you know what to reply?”
The guard hesitated for a moment. Prince Rui and Emperor Yong Le were both terrifying existences. In despair, he asked tentatively, “Should I reply that Your Highness has nothing to do with Fifth Miss Shen?”
Xie Jingxing looked at him with interest, his beautiful eyes filled with a deep meaning. He slowly said, “How can you lie to His Majesty?”
Gao Yang tightened his grip on the folding fan in his hand while Ji Yushu swallowed hard.
“Go back and tell him that he’s right. I stayed because of Shen Miao.” The young man smiled gently, but his eyes were scary. He said indifferently, “Don’t think about changing anything, because I won’t allow it.”
“By the way, remember to remind my brother.” He yawned. “Of the agreement with me.”
…
The quiet night covered everything from the tension in Prince Rui’s mansion, to the schemes in Prince Ding’s mansion, to the whispers in the Shen Mansion.
The Autumn Water Garden was already occupied by a new mistress. In a fit of anger, Chen Ruoqiu went back to the Chen family and even filed a lawsuit against her husband. Everyone knew that Chen Ruoqiu would not be able to win her place back. As for this new mistress, she seemed like a good and generous person. What was more, she was pregnant. The servants were fence-sitters. Immediately, they became servile to Chang Zaiqing.
Chang Zaiqing sat in the room and rubbed her stomach with a gentle smile.
After all, the west courtyard was too far away, and it was a little cold. The doctor Old Madam Shen found said that the child in Chang Zaiqing’s stomach was a boy. Since then, Old Madam Shen had been treating Chang Zaiqing like she was her mother and Shen Wan immediately brought Chang Zaiqing to the Autumn Water Garden just so he could take better care of her.
Obviously, Chang Zaiqing was already the new mistress of the Autumn Water Garden. She was very satisfied with the current situation. Although Chen Ruoqiu was more experienced in life, she was old and ugly now, and she did not give birth to a son, so in this battle, Chang Zaiqing was destined to win.
Shen Wan entered the room and put down the tonic in his hand. He walked to Chang Zaiqing’s side and rubbed her stomach with a smile.
Chang Zaiqing smiled at him. Suddenly, she asked in a soft voice, “Master, is there something troubling you?”
Shen Wan was stunned for a moment before he said with a sigh, “There’s indeed something troubling me.”
