794 Conviction (1)
The patterns on the safety pendant were very special. Luo Ling’s expression was very ugly. He asked, “Prince Rui… where did you get the safety pendant from?”
Shen Qiu looked at Luo Ling in surprise. Luo Ling was a person who had a sense of propriety and could always remain composed outside. It was a little rude of him to ask Prince Rui in such a tone.
Unexpectedly, Prince Rui didn’t take offense. Instead, to their surprise, he took off the safety pendant at his waist and played with it in his hand. He smiled lazily and said, “This? A girl gave it to me.”
Shen Qiu was stunned.
Prince Rui seemed to be particularly outspoken today, so much so that he was even willing to share his love affairs. Shen Qiu was very embarrassed. The more he knew, the sooner he would die. He was not interested in Prince Rui’s private matters at all.
Luo Ling’s face turned even paler. He couldn’t help but stare at the safety pendant in Prince Rui’s hand. However, Prince Rui only glanced at him and casually hung the safety pendant on his waist. He said to Shen Qiu, “I still have something to do, so I won’t talk to you anymore. Young General Shen, when you’re free, you can come to my mansion.” He said with a faint smile, “I’ve long heard that you are good at martial arts and really want to spar with you.”
With that, he pulled the reins and the horse trotted off, leaving Shen Qiu and Luo Ling standing rooted to the ground.
Shen Qiu muttered, “Could it be that Prince Rui wants to rope me in?” Why did Prince Rui want him to go to his mansion for no reason?
Shen Qiu was feeling smug when he suddenly saw Luo Ling’s abnormal expression. He felt a little strange and asked, “Cousin Lin, what’s wrong? Are you not feeling well? Why do you look so pale?”
Luo Ling came back to his senses and forced a smile. “Nothing. Let’s go back.”
“Alright.” Shen Qiu glanced at the end of the street where Prince Rui had disappeared and said, “It seems like Prince Rui likes that girl quite a lot. He actually wears a love token on his waist. I wonder which girl has the honor to be liked by him.”
Shen Qiu did not notice that on the way back, Luo Ling was staggering.
It was as if he had suffered a heavy blow.
…
Just as everyone expected, the assassination of Huangfu Hao was not easily resolved. Although the people on the crown prince’s side had been speaking up for the crown prince, there was still no news from the Ministry of Justice for a long time, as if they wanted to lock the crown prince up forever.
Emperor Wen Hui’s action also made the court officials start to analyze the situation differently. As soon as the crown prince was imprisoned, some people saw that the situation was not right and turned around to join other princes. The power had been again reshuffled.
At night, the wind was howling and cold. During the day, Shen Miao and Luo Tan went out to buy fabric for the new year. Luo Xueyan said that Luo Tan and Shen Miao were young ladies and needed a few more sets of clothes. When they returned to the mansion, Shen Miao felt a little tired.
She asked Jingzhe and Gu Yu to run a bath. When Shen Miao came out of the bath, she saw that there was another person in the room.
When Xie Jingxing turned around, he saw Shen Miao wearing an inner robe and twisting her wet hair with a handkerchief.
The girl was different from two years ago. Although she was still petite, she was like a budding flower, young and fragrant. Her inner robe was loose and slightly moist, as if one could see her slender figure through the fabric. Under the flickering light, her lips were red, her teeth were white, and her eyes seemed to be covered in a layer of mist. Her hair was black and wet, sticking to her face. Further down, one could see her snow-white body…
