Chapter 16: The Most Distracted Man (1)
"What are you going to do?"
A voice broke Shen Jinqiao's thoughts, it was the crown prince.
Maybe he really fell asleep just now, with a hint of hoarse and lazy in his voice, and there was an indescribable charm, but Shen Jinqiao didn't dare to think deeply.
Get up and salute: "Disturb Your Highness, please forgive Your Highness, I was helped by Your Highness before, and I have always wanted to thank Your Highness in person, but I couldn't find a suitable opportunity, I heard that Your Highness is out of the palace today, and I am here to thank you." ”
Rong Junzhi slowly sat up straight, leaning on the armrest, his phoenix eyes were slightly cool, and his pale eyes did not distinguish between joy and anger: "There is no shortage of your thanks." ”
Shen Jinqiao nodded, understood, don't thank you, you have to be practical, right?
Shen Jinqiao took out a sign from his arms and offered it with both hands.
The sign looks like wood but not wood, like iron but not iron, and is carved with a beast pattern, a lion body, a head with two horns, and a goatee.
Rong Junzhi's casual eyes fell on it and froze instantly, this is the legendary beast Bai Ze in ancient times, a symbol of auspiciousness and wisdom, this wooden card should have five pieces, and the rest are fierce beasts, only this one is a rui beast, which is the token that the founding emperor of the Xia Dynasty gave to his five henchmen.
The Huo family is the founding master of the Xia Dynasty, although it has declined, the weight of this token is not light.
Rong Junzhi never thought that Shen Jinqiao would send this piece to him, and he didn't suspect that it was fake, Shen Jinqiao lied to him, and she couldn't afford the consequences, but if it was true......
"What does that mean?"
"It's just a brand." Shen Jinqiao handed the sign to Rong Junzhi: "It has no meaning in itself, all its meaning lies in the glory given by the king, and in the wisdom of the person who owns it, I am really grateful to His Royal Highness, but unfortunately I have no long things, so I can only prove my gratitude." ”
Rong Jun's fingertips converged slightly, and his voice was cold: "Lone is just the prince, and Your Majesty is in the prime of life, but you want to listen to the king's things and me, what is your intention?" ”
"I said, it's just a brand." Shen Jinqiao looked at Rong Junzhi and looked directly at his face, without the slightest ripple, his eyes were pure and firm: "The Huo family has long been out of the government, this brand is just a brand, if His Highness can see it, he will accept it, if he can't look down on it, I won't give it to anyone again." ”
Rong Junzhi understood now, Shen Jinqiao came to show loyalty to him, Wei Sheng wasted so much energy, all he wanted was the Huo family's heritage, but he didn't do anything, but Shen Jinqiao sent it to him, Wei Sheng knew how much to hate?
His eyes stared at Shen Jinqiao darkly, he had never admired anyone, but he had seen the eyes of many admirers, but Shen Jinqiao did not have them in his eyes.
is obviously such a beautiful woman, standing here, but she seems to put herself in the position of a subordinate, and she doesn't think about him at all...... It doesn't seem to be a pleasant discovery.
Stretched out her hand and took the wooden card away from her hand, but saw Shen Jinqiao tidying up his sleeves, kneeling down respectfully, and bowing to the end, with a pious attitude.
Rong Junzhi tightened his knuckles slightly and pinched the wooden card: "Shen Jinqiao, why is it lonely?" ”
Shouldn't King Ming be her choice?
Shen Jinqiao raised his head: "Knowing the grace, the most important thing is that His Highness has the courage to make people follow and submit, and the rest of the courtiers will think of it." ”
Rong Junzhi: "......" This is the most distracted person he has ever seen.
Shen Jinqiao retired, leaving behind a piece of Bai Ze brand that many ambitious people flocked to.
Does she even know how useful this sign is? Just gave it to him?
Rong Jun rubbed the totem on the brand, this quaint atmosphere, it was true, the brand was right, but he seemed to remember that this sign could only be issued by the emperor of the Xia Kingdom.
And he is not an emperor now, and this brand seems to be of little use in his hands.
Shen Jinqiao took a useless brand to repay him, if he could ascend the throne, she showed favor in advance, he would definitely read the Huo family, reuse it, and make it a confidant, and if he was defeated, he would not let this brand fall into the hands of others, so that no one could command the Huo family.
...... "Is he being calculated?"
It's not that he is suspicious, but that the Huo family's mind can't be figured out by ordinary people.
And she can design to kill Wei Liang and retreat, he won't underestimate her.
Well, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would never have imagined that Shen Jinqiao was really just because he was worried about money, it was too difficult to make money, and it was difficult to repay the great favor, so he simply sold his loyalty and became a subordinate of His Royal Highness the Prince, so that he didn't have to worry about losing his head, and by the way, he could return the favor.
Anyway, that brand will have to be given out sooner or later, rather than being forced, it is better to maximize the benefits, and sell it well in front of the prince, she is really a genius.
Si Heng came in and smiled obscenely: "Your Highness, what did Miss Shen say to you?" ”
Rong Jun didn't bother to take care of him, put the wooden sign in his sleeve, leaned sideways on the pillow, and continued to close his eyes to recuperate.
Si Heng pouted: "It's boring." ”
They are all young and handsome, but they live like old men, no, those old men live more wonderful lives than them, and they still want to accept an eighteen-year-old girl as a concubine when they are sixty years old.
Shen Jinqiao finished what he had to do and left.
Shen Anyang, who lost loudly: "......"
The autumn wind is sorrowful, extremely desolate, and heartbreaking, why is he and Shen Jinqiao brother and sister? What did he do in his last life?
And Shen Anyang's miserable appearance was still seen by someone, and after seeing it, he told Wei Beishuo.
Wei Beishuo asked people to check it out, and soon knew that Shen Anyang had brought a girl, and that girl was most likely Shen Jinqiao.
He couldn't find anyone even if he wanted to see Shen Jinqiao, and now that the person was in front of him, how could he let it go? I didn't speak well last time, but this time I must finish my words.
As a result, after looking around, I realized that Shen Jinqiao had already left, and she had been to the top floor before leaving.
Who is in the room on the top floor, Wei Beishuo knows best.
"Prince?"
Obviously there are so many people, but Wei Beishuo intuitively locked the prince, because of Shen Jinqiao's attitude last time.
Could it be that Shen Jinqiao really likes the prince?
Why? She doesn't like so many people, she doesn't watch him when he is infatuated, why does she like the prince?
Is she as superficial as the rest of the world? Fancy the crown prince's appearance and his status?
If so...... He will never let go.
Xiao Wu looked at his young master's ugly face, and hurriedly came up with an idea: "Young master, although this Miss Shen is rumored to be the concubine of King Ming, she has not yet made a marriage contract. ”
Wei Beishuo's heart moved, he didn't expect this, but he just asked his father to find Shen Ye to propose marriage, which was not easy.
