"Actually, I'm not just a noble girl from the capital, I'm already married." Shen Xingyue smiled and continued.

She wanted to see how far the heart of the city lord had become.

When the city lord heard the news, he looked at her, and instead of getting angry, he licked the corners of his mouth, looking like he was bound to win.

Seeing him so greasy, Shen Xingyue was also a little disgusted in her heart, feeling that she was too wronged to deal with such a man.

The city lord didn't care about this at all, seeing Shen Xingyue's gaze even more presumptuous, he even wanted to stick his body over.

When he was about to move, Shen Xingyue took out a token and shook it in front of the city lord.

"See? This is a token from His Majesty, my husband is a minister, you just take me away like this, aren't you afraid that my husband will come to punish you? Although Shen Xingyue only shook it for a moment and took it back again, the city lord still looked carefully.

Only then did he look at Shen Xingyue in shock: "How could there be a Qin messenger coming, I didn't receive any news at all...... You're lying to me, aren't you? ”

Because he was so frightened, one of his faces was wrinkled together, and his facial features were even more squeezed so that he couldn't see anything, which looked particularly terrifying.

"I advise you to be more respectful to me, otherwise I don't know if your head can still hang on your head properly." Shen Xingyue saw that the effect was good, and she also put up a good shelf.

But the city lord didn't reply to her, nor did he look at Shen Xingyue again, just left in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

"What is the relationship between Qincha and the Wang family?" When he was about to arrive at the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord suddenly asked.

I didn't expect him to think of this, Shen Xingyue also glanced at him unexpectedly, and then replied: "Do you think I will tell you the truth?" ”

The city lord didn't say anything more, and at this time, the carriage stopped, and the city lord also went down by himself, completely without the monkey rush that faced Shen Xingyue at the beginning.

Although he left by himself, he did not forget Shen Xingyue, but sent someone to lock Shen Xingyue in a courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion.

This small courtyard is very ordinary, but because it has not been inhabited for a long time, it looks a little dilapidated. The walls around the yard are covered with creeper plants, which cover the entire wall.

Especially the place in the yard that should have been a flower bed, now a bunch of weeds have grown, and even the bluestone slabs have a lot of moss, which is slippery and greasy to step on.

"You're going to give me a house like this?" Shen Xingyue turned to look at the maid next to her.

In addition to Shen Xingyue in the courtyard, there was also a maid who came to monitor Shen Xingyue, for fear that she would escape.

After all, the city lord is still not sure if the Wang family knows the identity of the Qin Cha, if he does, it will not end well, and this matter needs to be investigated.

I'm going to lose my head soon, where does the city lord have time to think about any woman, and the whole person is busy.

The maid lowered her head, although she was on a mission, her identity was still not as good as Shen Xingyue, so she could only whisper: "It's what you want, there is no dead courtyard." ”

This is Shen Xingyue said that her only request for the place where she lives, and now when she heard the maid say this, she also took a good look at the place again: "Can you change the things inside?" ”

"The necessary furniture can be changed, but it is more valuable...... Slaves and maids have no rights. The maid continued.

Hearing this, Shen Xingyue also nodded, which was regarded as an approval of what the maid said.

In the next few days, Shen Xingyue was left here, and her life was quite leisurely.

Although the city lord did not come to see her again, at least he did not abuse her, and three meals a day would be provided, but other than that, she did not get any privileges.

Fortunately, Shen Xingyue's requirements are not high, and she also asked for some seeds, so that she can plant something in this small yard and enjoy herself every day, not like a forced person at all.

In the past few days, Shen Xingyue finally took care of the yard as if it was inhabited, instead of coming in and only making people feel like a ghost movie scene.

"Mandarin duck, I asked you to find a tool before, did you find it?" As soon as Shen Xingyue came out of the room, she saw the creeper all over the wall, and her mood was also worse.

She is incompetent to accept this kind of thing, and only wants to get rid of them as soon as possible, but who knows that the maid Mandarin Duck said that she still needs tools, and there is no way to clean them up for the time being, so she can only save them until the end.

Shen Xingyue screamed, but she didn't see anyone coming out, so she frowned and went to the place where the mandarin ducks often go.

When she reached the door, she heard a voice from outside, which was Mandarin Duck's, but because it was through a door, she couldn't really hear it.

Shen Xingyue went over and opened the door, and saw the mandarin ducks outside.

However, the mandarin duck was not alone, and there was a plainly dressed woman standing next to him.

The woman's clothes, though plain, did not look like a maid's dress.

"Sister Shen......" The woman was talking to the maid when she heard the door being opened, and she also turned her head to look at Shen Xingyue in surprise.

Shen Xingyue's face was full of confusion: "Who are you?" ”

She doesn't remember that she has other children at home, isn't she an only child?

"This is the eighteenth concubine of the city lord, the one in front of you." The mandarin duck hurriedly reminded.

Shen Xingyue frowned: "I'm not the city lord's concubine, I've already been married and have a husband." ”

"Before I came in, I also had a husband, but the city lord arrested me for no reason...... I haven't been able to get out until now. When the woman heard this, she began to weep bitterly again.

Shen Xingyue felt that she was too noisy like this, so she casually found an excuse, called the mandarin duck back, and closed the courtyard door by the way.

"Aunt Eighteen is also a poor person, her husband is said to be dead...... mandarin duck whispered to Shen Xingyue.

Shen Xingyue looked at the mandarin duck strangely: "Aren't you sent by the city lord to spy on me?" Why are you still telling me this? ”

She felt that there must be something strange in this, for example, the mandarin duck was deceiving herself with this woman.

"What? The slave was sent by the lady......" The mandarin duck was stunned for a moment, but immediately covered his mouth, obviously not expecting that he would not pay attention, so he said that he had leaked his identity.

Shen Xingyue looked at Mandarin Duck in surprise, she didn't expect her to be like this.

"Madame is afraid that you will seduce the city lord, so let the slaves and maids watch you, and will not give you a chance to get close to the city lord." He had already said it, and the mandarin duck simply stopped hiding it and told the truth about his coming.

Shen Xingyue was even more stunned.

Could it be that a man like the city lord would be someone who really liked him, not his money and power? No way? No way!
