Chapter 71: The Prince's Gift (1)
Shen Ye only had a small birthday and didn't invite outsiders, but even so, there were a lot of gifts.
For example, the shopkeepers of those shops at home, as well as Shen Ye's subordinates and close friends, are not precious, but they are still necessary to show respect and friendship to the master's family.
The most flamboyant lady is Wei Beishuo, who came to give it in person, it is still a big gift, calligraphy, painting and porcelain are very valuable, Prime Minister Wei Cheng has always been at odds with Shen Ye, but Wei Beishuo came to give gifts, the purpose is not too obvious.
The whole Sheng Jingjing knows that Wei Beishuo likes Shen Jinqiao, and now that Shen Jinqiao has been divorced by King Cheng, Wei Beishuo will come again immediately, who doesn't sigh a word of infatuation?
Shen Ye didn't accept it, so he retreated directly, since the last time, Shen Anyang didn't dare to bring Wei Beishuo in, Wei Beishuo couldn't, so he could only go home.
However, some people are more cunning and give luxury gifts in a low-key manner.
Without a signature, he sent the gift to Shen Ye, but Shen Ye knew at a glance that it was given by the prince.
The post was not signed, but there was a prince's private seal, and it was a good long sword, Shen Ye picked it up and took care of it, and with a slight cut on the table, the table was missing a corner.
Not to mention that iron is like clay, but it is indeed a rare good sword.
People who practice martial arts, especially men, are completely unable to refuse such a good weapon.
The prince's gift was really painstaking, and he was sure that Shen Ye would like it, and if Shen Ye insisted on returning it, he would definitely be heartbroken.
Shen Ye: "......"
Even if the wolf cub is ambitious, he is also very good at being a person, which is very difficult.
Whether it was Wei Beishuo or the crown prince, Shen Ye didn't want to hand over his daughter, it was all a fire pit, and it was almost the same as King Cheng's.
Shen Ye left the sword, and he didn't know who gave it to him, anyway...... The prince did not sign it.
Uh, isn't that a bit shameful?
Five days after Shen Ye's birthday, Shen Jinqiao was going to Ciyun Nunnery, because today was Huo Yu's death day.
Three years ago, on Shen Ye's birthday, Huo Yu was still there, but before he could wait, he was so angry that the old lady went back to her parents' house, and then she never came back.
Since then, Shen Ye has not had a birthday in the past few years.
Shen Jinqiao didn't tell Shen Ye when she went to Ciyun Nunnery, but she believed that her father knew.
In the blink of an eye, my mother has been gone for three years, and time flies so fast.
Shen Jinqiao went out very low-key, even the family didn't know, got up early, dressed simply and plainly, and just had a simple white jade flower on his head, a simple carriage, Ming Zhu drove the car, and Yuzhu carried incense and candles and tributes with her.
Shen Jinqiao went early, the road was also smooth, after arriving at Ciyun Nunnery, burned incense, listened to Shitai chanting for his mother, and presented hand-copied Buddhist scriptures.
After avenging her mother, this is the only thing she can do for her mother.
By the time everything was done, it was already past the afternoon, and the weather had just been fine, but suddenly it started to rain.
It started out as a drizzle, but it turned out to be heavier and heavier, and the road down the mountain was not steep, but it was obviously not a good choice to go down the mountain in such a heavy rain.
Shen Jinqiao decided to stay in the nunnery for a while longer, and waited for the rain to light up before leaving, so he could only stay for one night. Wu Jiu Literature
Shen Jinqiao compromised, but the rain became more and more wanton, and he had no idea of letting Shen Jinqiao go down the mountain at all, so he could only stay.
There are guest rooms in Ciyun Nunnery, and the food is also done well, Shen Jinqiao has stayed here with Huo Yu before, and the teachers and wives have watched her grow up, and they are very welcome for her to stay.
Shen Jinqiao listened to the rain in the wind pavilion outside Ciyun Nunnery, the air was full of sandalwood, mixed with rain, mist and water vapor, smelling very comfortable, here, the impetuous heart can gradually calm down.
The rain and fog continued until it was dark, and the food prepared by the nunnery was prepared, and Yuzhu had already prepared water for Shen Jinqiao, just waiting for her to eat well and take a bath and rest.
Shen Jinqiao had just gotten the chopsticks to eat, when Ming Xuan suddenly came in from outside and grabbed her chopsticks: "You can't eat it, there is medicine in the dish." ”
Almost at the moment when Ming Zhu finished speaking, there was a 'bang' outside the door, and Yuzhu fell to the ground.
Yuzhu was hungry in the afternoon, so she went to the dining room to eat before going to fetch water, but at this moment it was the effect of the medicine.
Shen Jinqiao hurriedly went up with Ming Zhu to help people up, and a guard outside hurriedly came in: "Master, someone in the nunnery lit a lot of smoke, and the teachers and wives fainted, and it seems that there are bandits up and down the mountain to rob them." ”
Shen Jinqiao was shocked: "The bandits actually rushed here, no, they have to be saved." ”
However, Ming Zhu looked ugly: "It's too late." ”
He picked up the unconscious jade bead and stuffed it under the bed to hide it, pulled Shen Jinqiao with his backhand and ran out.
"No, we have to save people......" Because there were several guards secretly following, Shen Jinqiao felt that a group of mountain bandits could fight, after all, the masters in this nunnery were all women, if those mountain bandits were plotting against them, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Poof." Ming Zhu picked up the dagger, raised the knife in his hand, and directly opened a hole in his body, blood flowed sideways, stabbing Shen Jinqiao's eyes painfully: "What are you doing?" ”
Ming Xu's face was tense: "Master, my subordinates are afraid that they have also eaten the drugged things, and they must leave quickly now." ”
Saving people is secondary, and you have to save Shen Jinqiao first.
Ming Zhu stuffed the dagger into Shen Jinqiao's hand, and ran to the stable with her, Ming Zhu took Shen Jinqiao on the horse, Shen Jinqiao suddenly felt weak under her feet, and the feeling of weakness in her body made her heart tremble.
She obviously didn't eat food, why did she also use Chinese medicine? Could it be that she drank a lot of tea before......
There are two roads that can go to Ciyun Nunnery here, the avenue in front of the door and the path in the back mountain, and the door has been blocked by someone, so you can only walk from the back mountain.
They were already running fast, but they didn't have to run far before someone came after them, and those people didn't look like mountain bandits at all, but more like well-trained guards.
Shen Jinqiao's eyes shrank, weren't these people coming for her? But she came here to be low-key and secretive, how could anyone know?
The guards behind him stayed behind to block the pursuers, and Ming Xuan took Shen Jinqiao all the way up and down.
But behind the mountain of this Ciyun Nunnery is a deeper mountain, all the way down, panicked, I don't know where I will go, maybe I will force myself to a deeper dead end.
"Master." Ming Zhu helped Shen Jinqiao down, and the two stumbled under a stone that could be blocked, Ming Zhu stabbed the horse's buttocks with his sword, and the horse galloped forward in pain, with a strong smell of blood.
Ming Xuan tore the clothes and tied his arms, didn't dare to light the fire, groped to the corner, and made sure that there was no problem before letting Shen Jinqiao squat down.
"If the master can't bear the medicine, go to sleep, his subordinates are guarding, and at the moment, I'm afraid I can only stay up until dawn and then make plans."
How could Shen Jinqiao fall asleep, biting his wrist and relying on pain to wake himself up.
She really couldn't figure out which immortal she had offended, was this trying to make money, or was it trying to kill her?
