Chapter 143: The Nest
Shen Jinglun shook his head at He Huan, and emphasized again to Shui Ting: "If you are bent on death, I can't stop you." But if you are genuinely concerned about your master, you should persuade him to think about his future. In addition, God took away my Xi Yan, he should have somewhat eliminated the hatred in his heart, and there is no need to end up losing both sides in the end. β
When He Huan heard this, he became more and more confused. If it is said that Shui Ting's master has a hatred for taking his wife from Shen Jinglun, but the only woman related to Shen Jinglun is Xie Minjun. Isn't Xie Minjun Shen Jinglun's fiancΓ©e? She looked at Shen Jinglun's side face in a daze.
Shen Jinglun looked at Shui Ting, and seeing that she gradually stopped struggling, he said, "That's all I say." He Huan motioned to go back to Shen's house with him.
At the insistence of Lu County's order, He Huan treated the wound on his shoulder at the county office, changed into clean clothes, and then got into the Shen family's carriage.
On the carriage, He Huan repeatedly thought about what Shen Jinglun said to Shui Ting. Outside the carriage, Xie San hurried over, only to see He Huan stepping into the carriage, and the carriage slowly drove towards the Shen family.
"Third Master." Chang An ran out of breath and said hurriedly: "The little ones have inquired clearly, Miss He's injury is not a big deal, it's just that her shoulder was pierced by a hairpin." β
"I'm going to kill Shui Ting now!" Xie San gritted his teeth.
"My third master!" Chang'an cried with a sad face, and hurriedly stopped the master, "She just obeys orders." Besides, Uncle Shen has already discussed it with Lord Lu......"
"Shut up!" Xie San had mixed feelings in his heart. He has never been a gentleman, and whoever dares to hurt him, he will pay it back a hundred times. But He Huan is not his person, what position does he have to seek justice for her?
Suddenly. Xie San was like a deflated ball. I thought about it again. Even if they didn't have anything to do with each other, he couldn't just watch others hurt her. He pushed open Chang'an and strode towards the gate of the county government.
Seeing this, Chang'an was so anxious that he was at a loss.
Earlier, although they left the county office, they still left someone to listen to the progress of the matter. Not long ago, when he learned that He Huan was injured, his master came running without thinking about it. Even if the enemy army attacked, he did not see his master so eager. What did Miss He give to his master?
Seeing that Xie San was about to step into the gate of the yamen. Chang'an hurriedly said: "Third Master, Miss He's matter has its own Uncle Shen." Uncle Shen was injured by Shui Ting's hand, and he may not even be able to hold the pen in the future. Since he decided to let Shui Ting go, he naturally had his intentions. β
Hearing this, Xie San stopped. It is said that Shen Jinglun desperately rescued He Huan and almost wasted his hands for her, which is not something that ordinary people can do. He has always felt that He Huan's feelings for him are mostly derived from life-saving grace. Now, Shen Jinglun is also her life-saving benefactor.
Xie San's heart has never been so uncomfortable. He told He Huan again and again. He didn't need her gratitude, he didn't care about the title of "life-saver", but in fact, he cared. He couldn't marry her, he went back to the capital, and they couldn't see each other in this life, but he hoped that he had a different place in her heart, just as he would remember for the rest of his life that she was the first woman he liked.
Maybe he was too selfish to say anything like that to make her forget him, but he was already so cowardly, and he only hoped that with the words "life-saving grace", she would still remember that there was once such a person as him when she was old. But now, all this has been deprived by Shen Jinglun. He's no longer the only man who has saved her.
Xie San turned around suddenly, looked at the direction where the Shen family's carriage disappeared, and said hatefully: "Let's tie her back to the capital, I will say to the emperor, I want to marry her, I will ask the emperor for marriage!" β
Chang'an's face turned white in fright instantly, and he couldn't say a word with his mouth wide open. He deeply doubted, exactly, that he wished he had misheard.
Xie San muttered as if talking to himself: "As long as I beg the emperor with good words, the emperor will agree to give marriage." Her family has no power and no power, and she is barely a declining family, and those old men will not chirp crookedly, for fear that one side will entrap me and take advantage of it......"
"What about the lord and the lady?" Chang'an reminded in a whisper, "The lord said that the emperor's foundation is unstable, the northwest is constantly fighting, Mongolia and Dongying are staring at the emperor, and even the quaint and Dali in the land of projectiles are watching, and the DPRK and China are fighting openly and secretly...... "The more he spoke, the quieter he became. The master of his family is old and unmarried, and he doesn't even have a concubine, and he has never had a favorite girl is only one of the reasons, the most important thing is that the master is now a piece of fragrant bun, and all parties want to take a bite, and the marriage must be cautious. As for the emperor's side, the lord has repeatedly mentioned his orders: since the emperor ascended the throne, the relationship between him and his master is only the level of "monarchs and ministers". The so-called "courtiers" must share the worries of the "king", whether it is a political or private matter.
Xie San listened to Chang'an's words, and felt even more guilty. He sat down on the threshold indignantly. He just wants to marry a woman he likes, and he doesn't want his family affairs to be involved in the conspiracy of the court, but even if he is the emperor and his queen concubine, which one is the woman he really likes and loves simply?
Seeing that the master stopped talking, Chang'an cautiously squatted at his feet and persuaded in a low voice: "Third master, in fact, you can have a good discussion with Miss He to show your difficulties, she may not be unwilling to go to Beijing with you." In the future, when you become a relative, you will carry her into the house. β
Xie San glanced at Chang'an and motioned for him to shut up.
Chang'an was afraid that his master would have a temper, so he must marry He Huan, and said in a suppressed voice: "Third master, the other masters are married to famous and noble girls, in the future, you don't want people in the capital to talk behind their backs, your wife is not as good as others......"
"The more you talk, the more confused!" Xie San interrupted him unhappily, "Don't let me hear such words again in the future." In addition, if she doesn't want to, I will never force her, and don't say anything like 'carry into the house'. β
Chang An hurriedly admitted his mistake, and said with a stubborn smile: "Third master, the other masters have said that the woman's words are not accurate. Besides, you didn't identify yourself to Miss He, maybe she will ...... after she knows the truth."
"Nonsense!" Xie San became more and more angry, and said coldly: "You remember their words so clearly, but you don't remember what I said, do you want me to send you to serve them?" β
Chang An was so frightened that he shook his head and didn't dare to speak again.
Xie San sat on the threshold of the yamen without any image, looking at the direction where the carriage disappeared in a daze, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt panicked. He is about to leave Jizhou, is he really willing to give up her? He left like this, will he regret it in the future? He couldn't bear that Shui Ting hurt her, Shen Jinglun saved her, could he accept her marrying and having children?
Inside the yamen, Lu Xianling learned that Xie San was sitting on the threshold of the yamen, and he was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he secretly complained that he shouldn't just care about Shen Jinglun and forget Xie San's existence. (To be continued......)
