Chapter 198: The Bet

The kite wrinkled slightly and said: "Because the slave and maid looked at each other so pleasantly when they were young, the slave's mother and maid laughed out loud when they saw the slave and maid, so that they couldn't work normally, so they had to send the slave and maid to the house as a maid ......."

"Miss Ning, if you take a closer look at the slave, you may think it's very funny?"

At the end, Kite Wei turned her head again, and looked at Sheng Changning with a smile.

Listening to her previous words, Sheng Changning was stunned, she had never heard of such a strange thing, she didn't turn around for a while, and sighed a little stunned: "Ah......"

When Sheng Changning looked at the smiling eyes of Shang Yuanwei, she realized that this was a joke that Yuanwei deliberately told to make her laugh, she blushed, and felt a little embarrassed.

Since she was a child, she has been wiser than ordinary children, and the palace maids Anan and Bei who stay by her side are not jokes, so she has never had the experience of jokingly making her laugh like Kite Wei.

Seeing that the girl in front of her hung her head slightly, revealing a small section of her neck as white as jade, but now the white jade was dyed with a trace of red crimson, Kite Wei couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile.

It turns out that this Ning girl, who looks cold, will also be shy.

The kite finished smiling, and before Sheng Changning could speak, she was busy begging for mercy: "The girl is angry, the slave just saw the girl's depressed appearance, and her heart became uncomfortable, so she had to think of a way to make you laugh......"

Sheng Changning bent the corners of her lips as she wished, and when she saw that she was busy explaining, she comforted: "I know your intentions, and I won't blame you." ”

Kite Wei laughed sincerely at this time, and said that the girl from the capital was very squeamish and had a very big temperament, but now when she saw Miss Ning, she didn't think that this Ning girl had these bad habits.

The wind outside the window was a little strong, and it was still soaked in a thin layer of coolness, and the clouds spreading on the edge of the blue sky were like a large patch of fine white cotton, fluffy and soft.

Sheng Changning raised her watery eyes and looked out, and the wind in her face brought some strength, which made her sense the coldness, and a little pimple appeared on her arm.

Summer is coming to an end, and autumn is coming.

………………

Qiu Cheng, the city lord's mansion.

Shen Yue finally had a long day of leisure, and he rarely had the heart to lean against the window, looking at the empty street not far away, and his eyes fell on the large and delicate flowers in the courtyard.

Eleven will hide his figure in the shadows, these days, Childe has spent a lot of effort to develop those herbs that are very likely to cure the epidemic, fortunately, two days ago, the old Mr. An who Childe asked him to find was successfully taken to the house.

This old gentleman is really as Childe said, he has a lot of experience with this sudden strange epidemic disease, and he has the help of those experiences that Childe wrote down in his previous research on herbal medicine, so he wants to ...... The people of Qiucheng, this time, can be regarded as saved.

Eleven, the big stone that had been pressed in his heart for a long time suddenly moved a lot, and he only felt relaxed and brisk.

He didn't dare to disturb Childe's leisure for a moment, because he knew that Childe might be thinking about the girl who was placed in the old mansion again......

Shen Yue stared at him and swept out of the window casually, the City Lord's Mansion was located in the center of a city, and the room where Jinhua regarded him as a guest and read books to him was even more empty than Jinhua's own bedroom.

Looking down here now, there is a glimpse of Qiu Cheng's vision, but such a good vision has not won his attention.

Shen Yue's gaze was scattered, scanning casually, but he was thinking about other things in his mind.

It's the middle of September now, and it's been half a month since he came to Qiucheng, and those things in his previous life should have been unforgettable, but Shen Yue couldn't remember some small details of many things more and more clearly, just like the epidemic in Qiucheng this time.

The epidemic in this life has begun to advance, and even the old gentleman who had helped in the previous life, Da Chu's epidemic, Shen Yue no longer remembered his name, let alone where he had lived for a long time, only vaguely remembered a vague direction.

But far more than that, the old gentleman became more and more mysterious.

Shen Yue sent a secret guard, but he could only find his apprentice, and then asked the apprentice who knew about it, but he could only be told an ambiguous answer: "The master has not entered the world for a long time, and he may wander in the mountains and do not know where to go."

In desperation, Shen Yue had no choice but to invite the apprentice out of the mountain - although An Xuan was not as good as his master, he thought that the old gentleman was the only one who loved the apprentice, and he would definitely do his best to teach him.

In short, in Shen Yue's words, it is - something is better than nothing.

Shen Yue looked at this dead and silent city, rubbing his knuckled phalanges with his fingertips, and his eyes were dyed with a light dark color.

Since he learned about the epidemic in Qiucheng, he knew that the Heavenly Dao in this life was still unwilling to continue to walk the original rudder of fate, so he had already made up his mind.

After sending Sheng Changning out of Qiu Cheng, he went to the small city that he learned about early in the morning, where he played a game of chess with Sheng Changmu, who had secretly paid a private visit to Weifu.

The white and black pieces fell one after another on the white jade board, and the dots condensed into a line, just like the thread of fate that constantly overlapped and staggered in the past and present lives.

It's just that, this time, he wants to fight for himself once.

A chance meeting when he was a teenager caused him palpitations for three lives, and it also fulfilled his current temperament, and it was still mixed with a little of the young man's fresh clothes and angry horses.

In the face of this ruthless person, Shen Yue thought of a hundred ways to pull him off the throne, and even thought about letting him taste the poison of wine.

But now, after more and more overlapping fates with the fate of his previous life, he was faintly aware of the untamperable endings in his heart, and he was terrified and uneasy. He finally thought, forget it.

The eyebrows revealed the young man's intentions, and Shen Yue insisted on the white son falling, step by step.

In this life, he let go of his long-term admiration, but he begged that this heavenly way was not really stupid, and he refused to have a lifelong relationship with Ning Ning.

……

He made a bet with Sheng Changmu.

If he wins, from now on, Sheng Changning will no longer have the slightest relationship with the Great Chu royal family; If he loses, he will ask himself to resign from the prefect of Shenyang Ming and return to the fields and villages.

And the bet is that the 328 people in Qiucheng will get their lives.

He promised to save the city.

……

Shen Yue knew very well in his heart that now the family in the capital was gradually being replaced by the new henchmen in the hands of Sheng Changmu, and the power of the family was about to fall apart unconsciously, waiting for Sheng Changmu to dispose of these intertwined families.

The next one is the local network in the southeast, northwest, and northwest.

or the lord of the city or the prefect.

And in Jiangnan, it is their Shen family.

His father Shen Yangming is self-made, and he can't compete with the hundred-year-old hairpin family, but the Xue family in the capital is Shen Yue's foreign family, and there is such a layer of in-law relationship, no matter what he does, it will only make people have to guard against it.
