Floating embers, not acquaintances (5)
When Shen Yao woke up again, it was in an inn. When she woke up, only Fu Jingtang was left alone, sitting on the edge of the bed and watching her!
Suddenly remembering what happened before she fell into a coma, she looked at Fu Jingtang angrily! Then he got out of bed and wanted to go out, but was stopped by Fu Jingtang.
Shen Yao wanted to break out, but she forgot that Fu Jingtang knew martial arts, and she couldn't beat him at all. Shen Yao sat down in her chair and fell silent.
Fu Jingtang looked at her guiltily and distressedly! Walked up to her and crouched down, trying to say something, but didn't know what to say!
Shen Yao hadn't said a word to him for a long, long time. Because she didn't know what to say. It was as if Fu Jingtang in front of him was like a stranger. But what was even more sad was that Shen Yao's heart was empty for a while, as if it had been poached.
She shuddered and closed her eyes. A tear slipped down imperceptibly and dripped onto her hand.
"Shen Yao! Don't be like this," Fu Jingtang looked at her as if his new had been crushed fiercely. It turns out that this is how it feels to be distressed!
Shen Yao looked at his white face, as if it was clean and not stained with the slightest dust! When you laugh, you can let go of all your defenses. But who knows, it's such a face that she fell into deeply! I can't get up again.
"Fu Jingtang, why are you lying to me?" Shen Yao asked him with a smile, smiling a little pitifully. But even so, tears poured out like an unstoppable flood bursting its banks. She grabbed his shoulder hard. Fingernails clamped into his clothes, shaking fiercely, "What the hell do you want from me?" You are scheming, you tell me! Tell me! In the end, Shen Yao couldn't help but collapse and roared hard!
"I'm sorry!" Fu Jingtang let her shake and apologized vigorously! "Shen Yao, I know I'm sorry for you, if it weren't for me, you might be doing well."
Fu Jingtang hugged her hard. I want to melt her into my body! Don't worry, I won't let you get hurt! I didn't think about it before, but in the future, even if I die, it will make your life safe!
Moxian County
At this time, Zhao Xun was walking around the house! From time to time, his eyes looked at the door, as if he was waiting for someone.
Soon someone returned. Zhao Xun immediately went up to ask! But when the man who came back shook his head, he fell into deep thought! A complicated look on his face followed!
He tapped his fingers on the table beside him. I can't tell whether it's joy or sorrow on my face!
It turned out that it wasn't just those black-clothed people who went to Shen Yao's house last night, Zhao Xun also sent people! It was only when his people went that they knew that Shen Yao had long since disappeared.
Zhao Xun sent someone to investigate Shen Yao, and the person next door also had news. But it shocked Zhao Xun very much! That person who looked elegant and white was actually the jade-faced student of Tianji Pavilion! At that time, Zhao Xun knew his purpose. I think it's all here for the secret of the treasure! It's just that he didn't expect Tianji Pavilion to intervene as well. In desperation, he had to put Shen Yao under house arrest first! But in the end, he was still a step slower, and when he went, Shen Yao had already disappeared, and he hadn't found her whereabouts until now!
This couldn't help but make him a little flustered. After so many years of deployment, it seems that it is about to succeed, and it must not fall short! It's just that now Shen Yao is missing, and it is a little difficult to find her. But...... Zhao Xun suddenly hooked the corners of his mouth. He was still sure to let Shen Yao come out by himself!
"Shen Yao, we'll meet soon! You can't escape! β
Then Zhao Xun ordered to go down, and the next step is to act!
On this day, Fu Jingtang walked on the street with Shen Yao, who was dressed in disguise. But the notice on the side was attracted! The notice said that the squire of the military department would be beheaded in three days!
Shen Yao suddenly became anxious, and Fu Jingtang on the side hurriedly held her down when he saw this. Forcibly took her to a remote place!
But Shen Yao still didn't want to go out, she couldn't watch her father be beheaded. She had to save him!
Fu Jingtang knew her thoughts, otherwise he wouldn't have brought her to the capital. In order to wait for an opportunity to save his father! But with Shen Yao's current situation, not only can't he save people, but he also puts himself in it!
So Fu Jingtang stabilized Shen Yao, and the two went to an abandoned house on the outskirts of the city to discuss strategies!
At night, there was a little fear of being quiet everywhere, didn't Shen Yao sit quietly by the fire.
Fu Jingtang took the pheasant that had passed the exam for her, but she didn't eat it and held it in her hand and didn't know what she was thinking!
"Fu Jingtang!" Shen Yao called him suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Fu Jingtang raised his head and looked at her puzzled!
"Can you tell me what you want from me now?" Shen Yao looked at him, his eyes seemed to have some pleading, but also puzzled!
Fu Jingtang was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect her to ask this! Just when he wanted to refuse, Shen Yao spoke again, "Until now, is it necessary for you to hide it from me?" β
Fu Jingtang looked at him and was obviously silent! Seems to be thinking about whether or not to let her know.
"Do you really want to know?" Fu Jingtang looked at her seriously.
Shen Yao nodded, this is what she has always wanted to know!
"Good!" Fu Jingtang put down the pheasant in his hand and began to tell Shen Yao.
It turned out that when the first emperor destroyed the previous dynasty, the emperor of the previous dynasty hid a number of treasures of the rich and rival country on a mountain! In order to wait until one day to return to the country! But before he could fulfill his wish, he died. And that batch of treasures, except for the emperor of the previous dynasty, only his closest people knew about it. And that person is Shen Yao's grandfather! After the former dynasty was destroyed, the first emperor wanted to know the whereabouts of these treasures from the mouth of the former emperor, but he didn't want the former emperor to die! And as the only person who knew about this batch of treasures, Shen Yao's grandfather was a close confidant of the emperor of the previous dynasty! In order to let him tell his whereabouts, the first emperor granted him an official position. originally thought that things were going well, but Shen Yao's grandfather died violently! But he also has a son, and this person is Shen Yao's father! Both the first emperor and the current emperor thought that Shen Yao1's father must know the whereabouts of these treasures. So I have been inquiring all these years, but Shen Yao's father has been pretending to be stupid!
Originally, after so many years, Shen Yao's father always thought that if he didn't say it, he could keep the family safe! But there is a Tianji Pavilion on the rivers and lakes! And this Tianji Pavilion was founded by the surviving descendants of the previous emperor, in order to one day realize the wish of the previous emperor! And Shen Yao's grandfather's death was also from their hands!
Over the years, they had also been trying to get this batch of treasures from Shen Yao's father. I finally found out that the location of the treasure was on Guillotine Mountain, but there was no key. But for the amulet-like key, how could Shen Yao's father easily say it! So under the pressure of the two parties, there was Shen Yao's father now.
Speaking of which, Shen Yao finally knew the reason. But then she wondered, why did she come to herself? I don't know anything!
Fu Jingtang laughed a little! looked at Shen Yao's eyes with slow guilt.
Finally he said. Because someone rumored that secret, Shen's father informed his child.
As a result, Tianji Pavilion and the imperial court began to think about his children. At first, they all thought that Shen's father would tell his son, but after the secret investigation, they found that Shen Zhichao didn't know at all!
So he turned to his favorite daughter Shen Shu! But in the end, I still don't know. Then there is only one person left!
Speaking of this, Shen Yao pointed at himself in disbelief. She thought it was a little ridiculous, she didn't know it, and her father never told her!
However, Shen Yao seemed to have thought of something! She suddenly looked at Fu Jingtang.
"You say, in addition to Tianji Pavilion fighting our idea, there is also the imperial court?"
"Yes!"
"Then where in the imperial court is there anyone approaching us?" Shen Yao suddenly figured out something! It was as if there was something she had been ignoring that would eventually become clear at this point.
"It's the Marquis of Changting!" Fu Jingtang had to admit that Shen Yao was smart, although he was already trying his best to avoid it, and he didn't want him to know that his fiancΓ©, who had been engaged since he was a child, had been using him for more than ten years! But Shen Yao still noticed it in the end!
"Huh...... Hehehe" Shen Yao suddenly laughed, laughing extremely sarcastically! It turns out that the people she once believed in the most were deceiving themselves!
"Shen Yao!" Fu Jingtang was a little worried about her.
"It's okay, so far, what else can't I accept?" She said indifferently, "It's just that why are you so sure that my father must have told us the secret, one of the three of us?" Especially me, the last thing he cares about is me! β
"We didn't believe it either! So we visited your father's study by night! And we will be sure! Fu Jingtang said that they had explored their father's book at night and found that it was full of portraits of Shen Yao's mother! There is also a portrait of Shen Yao when she was a child. In addition, Shen Yao's father looked at the portrait of Shen Yao's mother, and it was half an hour at a glance! It can be seen that Shen Yao's father's favorite is Shen Yao's mother. And Shen Yao's attitude is also about to come out.
Because he was afraid that Shen Yao would be hurt, he ignored her all these years. It is precisely because of this that Shen Yao has been able to be safe until now! Because no one pays too much attention to someone whose father doesn't like.
Fu Jingtang also told Shen Yao that her father had always wanted to push off the marriage with Zhao Xun, but there was no way. Until they thought that they had told Shen Shu the secret, they offered to marry Shen Shu. That's why Father Shen didn't object at that time!
Shen Yao's nose suddenly felt sour after hearing this. If it is really as Fu Jingtang said, then her father has actually been protecting her all these years?
Shen Yao remembered that when she was still very young, her mother died at that time, and her father accompanied her all day long, until she married her stepfamily and had Shen Shu and Shen Zhichao, and then she began to slowly distance herself!
Shen Yao suddenly felt sorry for her father. At this time, she couldn't wait to save him immediately!
But she knew she couldn't be impulsive.
After calming down her mood, she suddenly had some doubts! Did Dad really tell her?
Just when she was thinking about it, suddenly a mouse passed by her! Shen Yao was immediately startled, and patted his heart again and again, but he was stunned when he touched the jade pendant on his neck!
Something suddenly occurred to her. If she remembers correctly, when she was a child, her father would often hold her on top of her, touch the jade pendant she was wearing, and say, "Yaoyao, remember this jade pendant and you must not lose it!" This is your life talisman" But at that time she was still young, and her relationship with him became worse and worse, so she gradually forgot about it! But in the end, this jade pendant has not been taken off by himself for so many years!
Shen Yao couldn't help but be a little incredulous. It turns out that my father has already told himself! But I never found out.
Fu Jingtang saw that she hadn't spoken for a long time, and called her a few times worriedly! Shen Yao smiled at him and said that it was okay, but he was uneasy in the end.
In the following days, Shen Yao and Fu Jingtang discussed how to rescue Shen's father. It was impossible to rob the law field, and in the end, the two decided to enter the cell the day before to rescue Shen's father.
So that night, the two of them paid off the jailer who guarded the cell. came to the location of the cell where Shen's father was held, but just as the two decided to save people, a large number of officers and soldiers came in and surrounded the two in the middle! At this time, a person came out of the crowd, it was Zhao Xun, who had not been seen for a long time.
At this time, the two knew that they had been tricked! I'm afraid Zhao Xun has already arranged it tonight, waiting for himself to fall into the net! Shen Yao couldn't help but want to rush up, but was pressed down by Fu Jingtang!
Zhao Xun looked at Shen Yao and Fu Jingtang, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious! But in Shen Yao's eyes, the smile was so dazzling!
"Xiao Yao, long time no see!" Zhao Xun was very happy. looked at Shen Yao as if they were reunited after a long absence.
"Zhao Xun, where's my father?" Shen Yao didn't want to talk nonsense with him! The current Zhao Xun is extremely hypocritical in Shen Yao's heart!
Zhao Xun's smile froze a little, although he had expected that Shen Yao might know, but he didn't expect this to be the case when the two met! He turned his head to look at the man in front of him. Ignorance? Why, he felt a little glaring!
"Xiao Yao, you and I have a marriage contract! I'm going to be angry if you run around like that! Zhao Xun looked at Fu Jingtang, and his tone was full of murderous intent.
Fu Jingtang also felt it, and he subconsciously protected Shen Yao tighter!
"Zhao Xun, I don't want to talk nonsense with you! I know all about you. You don't have to fake it here! Don't you want the whereabouts of the keys? I know! Shen Yao looked at Zhao Xun so disgusting!
Sure enough, Zhao Xun suddenly raised his eyebrows when he heard the treasure, and looked at Shen Yao with some consideration! "Oh! You know, how do I trust you? β
Shen Yao snorted coldly, "Do you know, why bother pretending here." As long as you let my dad go, I'll tell you the whereabouts of the key! β
"How can I trust you!" Zhao Xun looked at her with a blank expression.
"Otherwise, how about you take me and my father to that place together, and when we get to the place, we can teach people to call the key with one hand?" Shen Yao looked at him and said suddenly! Seeing that he didn't speak, Shen Yao said again: "Zhao Xun! You don't have a choice, and I'm not afraid to tell you that no one knows where the key is but me! If you don't tell me, I'm sure in less than three days, Tianji Pavilion will get the key, and I don't think it's what you want to see! β
"You threaten me?" Zhao Xun squinted at her, and there was a little coldness in his tone!
"You can do it yourself!" Shen Yao is gambling, blocking him and not daring to take risks!
Just when the two were at a stalemate, they suddenly heard the sound of laughter!
Everyone looked over suspiciously, only to see that the person who came was indeed Zhao Wugeng, the Marquis of Changting.
He walked over and looked at Shen Yao, and suddenly Shen Yao was a little flustered. Fu Jingtang seemed to notice, and took Shen Yao's hand to signal her not to worry! So Shen Yao gradually calmed down, and her eyes looked directly at him.
"Shen Yao, you are really the most like your father! It's no wonder we've been deceived by him all these years! I've heard everything you said! I promise you, we'll be on our way early tomorrow morning, what do you think? "It is worthy of being the Marquis of Changting, he is so bold in his words, Zhao Xun is far worse than his father!
"Good! I hope Uncle Shen won't break his word! "Shen Yao promised to come down! In the end, it was quietly relieved. She turned her head to look at Fu Jingtang, both of them understood that success or failure was here!
