The next day, the guards in the capital were significantly stronger than usual, and from time to time pairs of officers and soldiers could be seen patrolling the streets and interrogating suspicious passers-by.

At the city gate, a carriage was being inspected before entering the city, and a handsome and elegant man sat inside.

"Okay, no, our young master doesn't have so much spare time to spend here with you!" the master didn't speak, but the coachman was already a little impatient.

"Shen Qing, don't be rude. The man said gently, but it was extremely threatening, and the coachman immediately shut up.

After the inspection, the man asked the officers and soldiers guarding the city, "May I ask if anything happened in the capital today, and why are you so vigilant?"

Originally, as soon as he looked at the carriage he was riding, he knew that this person was by no means an ordinary person, coupled with the arrogant tone of the coachman just now, the officers and soldiers defending the city guessed that this person must be either rich or noble, and they did not dare to slack off and truthfully told them the details they knew.

"Thank you, Shen Qing, let's go. The man said softly.

"Yes, young master. ”

With a wave of his whip, the carriage sped away from the city gates.

Shen Yu sat in the car and recalled what the guards had told him just now: the top has issued an order, pay special attention these days, and everyone who enters and leaves the city gate must be carefully checked, and as long as there is a suspicious person, he will be arrested immediately. A sneer crept up the corner of his mouth.

Hmph, Lin Xijue is quite good at acting, but it's a pity that it's just a waste of effort!

"Miss, Miss, the eldest young master is back, the master sent someone to ask if you are feeling better, if there is nothing serious, go to the front hall to eat. ”

Shen Shuqing was lying on the recliner in her yard for a nap, and after hearing Shuang'er's words, she sat up lazily, stretched her waist slightly, and said, "Got it, I'll go now." ”

The eldest young master, Shen Shuqing's eldest brother, she is very curious about what kind of person she is now as the titular eldest brother.

Shen Shuqing took Shuang'er to the front hall, and recognized at a glance that the handsome and elegant man in a light blue coat was her eldest brother, Shen Yu.

She stepped forward and called, "Big brother." He sat down.

Shen Yu looked carefully at his sister who he hadn't seen for a long time, just now he heard his father and mother say that she committed suicide by throwing herself into the lake a few days ago, and he was still a little worried, but now he was relieved to see her ruddy face and calm demeanor, but for some reason he felt that she was a little strange, and the conversation was not as gentle and lovely as before, but it was more lively and playful, and there was a feeling that could not be said but was very familiar.

"Why is my eldest brother looking at me like this, is there anything on my face?" Shen Shuqing could guess what Shen Yu was thinking without asking, but it seemed a little abnormal if she was stared at like this, if she didn't react anymore.

Seeing her ask this, Shen Yu also knew that she seemed to have been watching it for too long, so she said gently: "It's nothing, it's just that I haven't seen her for more than a year, and Qing'er is getting more and more beautiful." ”

"That's right. Shen Shuqing had a natural expression, but the people around her were a little surprised, under normal circumstances, a woman is praised by a man like this, even if it is her own brother, she will be a little embarrassed, how can it not be her reaction, is she too stimulated or her brain is in water?

Shen Yu saw that everyone was staring at Shen Shuqing, so he changed the topic and said, "Yun'er, Brother Qing'er brought you a gift, I'll give it to you after eating." ”

"Thank you, big brother. The sisters said together.

After lunch, Shen Shuqing took the gift from Shen Yu back to her yard, planning to take a nap, but she didn't expect Shen Yu to follow her to Luoqingxuan.

"Qing'er, I heard from my father and mother that you haven't been feeling well lately, but are you feeling better now? ”

"Big brother followed me all the way to Luo Qingxuan, I'm afraid I don't just want to know how my body is, and I think my father and mother should have already told you why I'm unwell, and if my eldest brother wants to talk to me about Tang Yingxuan, I don't have to beat around the bush. ”

Shen Yu wanted to talk to Shen Shuqing about this topic tactfully, but she didn't expect her to say it so straightforwardly. Surprised, but also secretly glad that there were not so many detours.

But having said that, he still said as tactfully as possible: "Qing'er, although the eldest brother is often not at home, you should know that I love you very much, after all, you are my real sister compared to Yun'er......"

"Big brother, what do you want to say?" Not wanting to hear him say so much nonsense, Shen Shuqing prompted him to go straight to the point.

"I... Qing'er, you also know that Dad attaches great importance to this family affair with the Tang family, originally Lord Tang agreed with Dad to let you marry him, but Tang Yingwan him... I like Yun'er, and Lord Tang also hinted to my father, so my father wanted to ......"

"Let my sister marry. Seeing him spitting out, Shen Shuqing helped him say what he wanted to say.

"Qing'er, Dad has his difficulties, you have to be considerate. Shen Yu felt a little guilty.

"Big brother, you go and tell your father, everything is up to your father, I have no opinion. "Although I hate that Master Shen is so realistic, but he is in her heart.

"Qing'er, are you sure you're okay?" Shen Shuqing's indifference made Shen Yu a little uneasy.

Seeing that he was not at ease, Shen Shuqing said very seriously: "Big brother, don't worry, I'm fine, I don't like Tang Yingwan anymore after I wake up after jumping into the river, so I really can't ask for a divorce from him." ”

Seeing her serious look, Shen Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief, originally thought that telling her the cruel reality would make her sad and sad, and even do something stupid again, but she didn't expect her to accept it so calmly, it seems that she has really grown up after experiencing life and death.

Shen Yu looked at her sister with relief, very happy to see her transformation, but she was settled here, but her mother was probably not so easy to talk to.

As he expected, when he told Master Shen Shuqing's attitude, Master Shen told Mrs. Shen his plan in the evening, and Mrs. Shen, who was reasonable on weekdays, knew that her husband was going to let her eldest daughter marry into the Tang Mansion instead of her daughter, and resolutely opposed it with an unprecedented tough attitude.

"Don't say it, sir! I will never agree to it anyway!"

Yes, she will never agree, eighteen years ago, that woman had already taken away her husband's love for herself, and three years ago her daughter had taken the position of the eldest lady of the Shen family, all of which she had endured silently in accordance with the principle of a good wife and mother, but now they have to destroy her daughter's happiness even by inch! This time, she will definitely not give in again, even if she tries her best, she will keep her daughter's happiness!

"Madam, the twisted melon is not sweet, Tang Gongzi and Qing'er have no fate, this is also something that cannot be forced, why do you bother?" Master Shen persuaded bitterly.

"What does it mean that there is no fate?!The two of them have been married since childhood, and they have the words of the matchmaker of their parents, and now they have no fate, how will you be a person in the future after you call Qing'er?!"
