Chapter 712: After Nightfall

"Since the master is coming, the concubine should freshen up and dress up." Cui Shi got up and looked back slowly.

Her old and haggard face was revealed in front of Shen Cangxu little by little, which made Shen Cangxu feel a burst of discomfort in his heart.

Even if the relationship is broken, in his memory, Cui's has always been that beautiful and lovely cousin. But when I saw it today, this face...

The huge gap made Shen Cangxu not manage his emotions well for a while.

At that moment, the consternation and disgust that crossed his face all fell into Cui's eyes.

However, Cui Shi didn't care, she only pulled out a smile with unknown meaning in the flickering candle flames, and blessed Shen Cangxu, and then led him to sit down: "This place is simple, I hope the master will not dislike it." ”

Shen Cangxu sorted out his emotions and sat down.

With a casual hand, he ordered the steward to serve the food and drinks that had been prepared in advance.

"You must already know the purpose of my coming today." Shen Cangxu said lightly, "Junqing, this kid, I can't take care of it anymore." The two princes are not something that our Shen family can afford to offend.

"In this way, we, as parents, can only send her off a little on the day she leaves the house."

Shen Cangxu said as he poured a glass of wine for each of them.

Cui Shi didn't look at his movements, just looked at him directly and asked, "How long are the days?" ”

"Five days later."

"Okay, that evening, the concubine will arrive."

Cui Shi's words made him pause in pouring wine, and after a moment of silence, he said with difficulty: "It's not dusk, it's after nightfall." ”

"What? After dark?! Cui Shi suddenly twisted his eyebrows, "Whose family will welcome the relatives after dark?" Did you mistake the time?! ”

"Nope! It's after dark! At the mention of this embarrassing thing, Shen Cangxu's face also became extremely ugly, "These days, didn't your good daughter tell you how she changed from the side concubine of King Chengnan to the concubine of King Jinyang?!" ”

As soon as he scolded, Cui's face became extremely ugly.

These days, Shen Junqing has only been around once.

She didn't stay long, and she didn't make her business too clear. She only said that the king of Jinyang loved her and had a deal with her. After she finishes helping King Jinyang do things and gain a firm foothold in Jinyang Palace, their mother and daughter will no longer have to live a hard life.

But from one king's concubine to another's concubine...

Come to think of it, it's not because of any good thing.

Seeing that Cui's face was uncertain, Shen Cangxu didn't bother to sell anything to her again. As soon as his face sank, he directly shook off the whole thing.

After that, he no longer concealed his true intentions: "Since the words have been said here, I will tell you about the deal she made with the King of Jinyang."

"In the past few days, she has been asking me about the Shi family and the Shi family, what do you say she wants to do? She wants to turn over the old case! Then take the clues to curry favor with the King of Jinyang! ”

"Impossible!" When it came to the Shi family, the Cui family couldn't control his emotions anymore, "Why do you want to turn this matter up to please King Jinyang?" Why did she wade through those troubled waters?! ”

"Why else? Of course, it is the You family, the mother family of King Jinyang and King Jinyang, which has something to do with this matter! Shen Cangxu didn't have a good air, "What happened to the Shi family back then?" It was the Dong family's gang that was beaten into the You family's party, and then impeached and convicted of corruption!

"You should know what's at stake!"

"But, but after so many years of being safe, how could the You family suddenly..."Cui still refused to believe it.
