Chapter 21: Finally saved
Shen Nianzhen understood that no one could save him, so he closed his eyes in despair.
But at this moment, a thing flew from the outer hall with a strong wind, and struck the blade of the sword, the force was so great that the guard who was immediately shocked felt numb, and involuntarily let go of the sword in his hand.
With a click, the thing fell to the ground, and it was a jade pendant that was broken into two petals.
"There are assassins! Protect the king! The guards immediately turned back and waited for them.
Shen Nianzhen also opened his eyes.
The next moment, she saw her eldest brother Shen Yunlan walking in from outside the hall, although his eyes were eager, but his steps were steady, his face was peaceful, and after entering the hall, he ignored the tips of the swords pointed at him with a brush, and asked Rong Chen, who was sitting there with a cold face, without changing his face: "Shen Yunlan greets His Royal Highness the Second Prince!" The sister-in-law's nature disturbed Her Highness, and she asked Her Highness to forgive her this time and allow me to take her home. ”
Obviously, it was Rong Chen who made a move and intercepted Shen Nianzhen halfway, but Shen Yunlan didn't dare to say anything, and took all the charges on his own body, just hoping to bring Shen Nianzhen back safely.
Rong Chen is the kind of person who will pretend to you if you give him face? No.
Hearing this, he stared at Shen Yunlan and sneered: "Has this king allowed you to come in?" Get lost! ”
"Okay."
Shen Yunlan nodded and agreed without hesitation, and then walked over and stretched out his hand to pull Shen Nianzhen and planned to leave.
The next moment, the tips of the swords in everyone's hands were all pointed at them, and it was a big idea that if they took a step forward, they would be splashed with blood.
Shen Yunlan stopped and looked at Rong Chen with a frown: "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, what do you mean?" Do you have to detain the housemate? She's just an insignificant girl, and I ask Your Highness to raise your noble hand and let us go. ”
"Insignificant?"
Rong Chen smiled, looked at Shen Nianzhen and said with deep eyes: "Ask her, what did she do just now." ”
Shen Yunlan was puzzled when she heard this: "The housesister is just a weak woman who has no power to restrain the chicken, what can she do to the prince......
As soon as the words fell, he saw that Rong Chen's chest was stained with blood, which was shocking.
Just now, Shen Nianzhen hurt Rong Chen?
He was taken aback, glanced back at Shen Nianzhen sharply, and asked her with his eyes, what did you do?
Shen Nianzhen held his right hand tightly, looked at Rong Chen with his head held high, and there was a faint mockery on the corner of his mouth: "It's nothing, His Royal Highness the Second Prince called me, just to ask me something about Lu Shizi...... Your Highness, do you say yes? ”
She guessed that Rong Chen definitely didn't want people to know where the injury on his chest came from, because it would be too embarrassing to say it.
Rong Chen looked at Shen Nianzhen.
The girl's bright and moving face had a hint of baby fat, but her eyes were as cunning as a fox, and the light in her eyes was full of mockery.
Very well, he will be armed.
Rong Chen suddenly let out a sneer, the laughter was shocking, and the entire hall was cramped because of this laughter, and the flame of the candlestick on the coffee table shook lightly a few times, almost extinguished.
"Yes, this king just asked her to come in and ask some questions." The laughter stopped, and he said indifferently: "I heard that your Shen family plans to divorce the Zhenbei Hou Mansion?" ”
Shen Yunlan was surprised that the second prince actually knew about this, but there was nothing to hide, and he nodded when he heard the words: "Yes, my father has already written a note, and I will enter the palace tomorrow to ask Your Majesty." ”
"Since you want to get out of the marriage! Then be a little more sloppy! Rong Chen said coldly: "Don't delay the Lu family!" This king will re-select a person for Lu Shizi who is above your Shen family as a marriage match! ”
"Yes, Yunlan understands." Shen Yunlan replied respectfully.
Rong Chen looked at him, then at Shen Nianzhen, who was standing on the side with a vigilant face, snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and said in disgust: "Okay, get out." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness." Shen Yunlan immediately left with Shen Nianzhen, not daring to stop for a single step.
It wasn't until he left the main hall and saw that he was stopped in the courtyard by the guards with an anxious look on his face, that Shen Nianzhen reacted, and he finally escaped from the hands of the second prince.
"Daddy!"
Shen Nianzhen rushed over with her skirt and hugged Shen Chong and cried.
The cry is heartbreaking.
The fear, the fright, and the despair that had just been in the hall were all vented.
"Okay, are you hurt?" Shen Zhong has been carrying his heart, and he didn't let go until he saw his daughter at this moment, and when he saw Shen Nianzhen crying so sadly, his eyes were also slightly red.
"Dad, sister, hurry back, this is not the place to talk." Shen Yunlan seemed calmer.
"Okay, let's go home." Shen nodded, took out a handkerchief to wipe Shen Nianzhen's tears, took her hand all the way out of the Second Prince's Mansion, and took the car directly back to the house.
Rong Chen stood in the main hall, and saw the woman crying in his father's arms in the courtyard through the window, and his face suddenly showed a trace of disgust and ridicule: "It turns out that all the calmness is pretended, but he is just a coward!" ”
After speaking, he retracted his gaze and looked at the information and letters that the guards had just handed over that had really been searched from the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.
What Shen Nianzhen said was actually true! The Hou Mansion of Zhenbei really took refuge with the three princes early in the morning, which was really unexpected.
"Lord Wang, let's let my subordinates bandage it for you......" The guard looked at the bloodstains on Rong Chen's chest and whispered.
