Chapter 8 Traveling to Chang'an together
Jing Wan'er didn't stay too long, and left quickly, in the middle of the night, if she really stayed for a long time, I was afraid that it would not be good for her and Pei Tan.
The guards guarding outside were already staring suspiciously, but when they saw that the woman was leaving quickly, the expression on their faces relaxed.
In the study, Pei Tan looked out the door for a long time, and even forgot to open the file in front of him.
Once, every night, as if he had some unspeakable habit, he also looked up like this, subconsciously looking outside.
No matter how dark the night was, nothing could be seen.
β¦β¦
As soon as Jing Wan'er went out in the morning, she almost bumped into someone, raised her head, looked at each other, and was stunned.
Shen ...... Shaoqing? β
Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Shen Xingwen. Shen Cheng of the past.
Shen Xingwen seemed to smile and looked at Jing Wan'er: "I really can't imagine that there will be a day when I will see the girl again in this life." β
Wan'er didn't expect it either.
Her expression is subtle, and now Shen Xingwen is dressed in an official uniform embroidered with blue birds, and her temperament between her eyebrows is cold, faintly revealing majesty, as if she is not the same as before.
Jing Wan'er subconsciously got out of the way: "Shen Shaoqing, please." β
Shen Xingwen gradually hooked his lips, and when he hooked his lips, he seemed to have become the same Shen Xingwen as before, with a playful and cynical expression.
He kept staring at Jing Wan'er for a long time before he slowly raised his foot, brushed Jing Wan'er's side and left.
Looking at the direction in which Shen Xingwen left, he went to Pei Tan's study.
Pei Tan pushed the case file in his hand to Shen Xingwen and said, "This is a copy of the case file of the Fan Family Restaurant handed over by Jingzhao Mansion, this case will be handed over to you." β
Sometimes, it is inconvenient for Pei Tan to come forward directly.
Shen Xingwen picked up the case file and glanced at it, he naturally heard about the recent thunderous cases.
Naturally, he knew that this case did not involve a murder, and it was not about Dali Temple, but Pei Tan asked him to investigate.
What a smart person our Shen Shaoqing is, he immediately hooked his lips again, "Yes, it is appropriate for subordinates to share their worries for adults, but can subordinates ask more...... This time, could it be related to Miss Jing again? β
Pei Tan looked at him lightly, his eyes looked unwavering, and he said, "If it is really related to Jing Wan'er, shouldn't Shaoqing be more dedicated?" β
They are all once in Dali Temple, and they have lived and died together, and not everyone has such friendship.
These four taels of thousands of catties really blocked Shen Xingwen back, Shen Wenting choked, and smiled slightly: "What the adult said is right, the subordinates will definitely be very dedicated." β
Shen Xingwen pinched the case file and withdrew from the study.
Shen Shaoqing has always been resolute and resolute in his work, and directly recruited the officials, put the case file on the table lightly, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, seemed to be thoughtful, but said casually for a moment: "Go and inquire about the Li family's gentleman, Li Xiuwei, his social circle in Chang'an, especially where he usually likes to go, what to eat, and who to meet." β
It's no secret that these gentlemen are high-profile in their fun-seeking, so it's not a big deal to ask.
When you are a subordinate, you must learn to understand the heart of your boss, and you can't let your boss say everything too clearly.
Shen Xingwen had a meaningful smile on his lips.
The official showed a cautious look and asked carefully: "Lord Shaoqing, why do you want to check the whereabouts of the Li family's son?" "This Li family is not just a villain, just check it.
Shen Xingwen looked at him, and this look made the official shrink for a moment. "Yes, I'll send someone to inquire."
This young master is more majestic than Pei Tan, and the official dares to be angry in his heart.
When the official left, Shen Xingwen turned a page of the case file more leisurely, and he already understood what Pei Tan meant. Now Li Xiu is robbing the restaurant, this matter does not involve a murder, and Dali Temple cannot interfere in any case. That's just ...... This matter, or Li Xiuwei himself, as long as he is involved in the "murder" case, isn't it Dali Temple that has taken over?
Pei talked about this Dali Temple, and his mind was like the sea.
These families are all very dirty, Pei Tan knows it well in his heart, and none of them can afford to be checked. Shen Xingwen showed a touch of affirmative ridicule.
As long as you check, there is nothing that cannot be found. Li Xiuwei is such a longitudinal horse in Chang'an, and the son-in-law who enjoys flowers and pleasures, will there be a few lives in his hands?
Or, in the hands of the Li family, there is no human life?
The smile on the corner of Shen Xingwen's mouth became thicker and thicker.
When Shen Xingwen was strolling leisurely, he met Jing Wan'er again, she was in the well, and she had just taken a bucket of clear spring water. turned around and happened to be face to face with Shen Xingwen.
"Girl, is this?" Shen Xingwen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Jing Wan'er said simply: "Take some spring water and cook tea." β
Cook tea, for whom to cook tea.
Shen Xingwen smiled faintly, and said meaningfully: "My lord went to the palace, and I don't know when I will come back." β
Jing Wan'er didn't pick up the topic, but changed her voice: "After cooking the tea in a while, if Shaoqing doesn't dislike it, send one to Shaoqing." β
Shen Xingwen's expression was even more meaningful: "Miss Jing has never been so polite before, and Shen is really flattered." β
With his current status as a fourth-grade person, he also called himself Shen to Jing Wan'er, a folk girl, which can be regarded as giving him a lot of face.
In the past, Jing Wan'er and Shen Xingwen were somewhat "not dealing with".
Since she mentioned the past, Jing Wan'er was also very generous, and said with a smile: "Wan'er admired Shaoqing very much in the past, she has strategies and means, and there are not many people like Shaoqing." β
Pei Tan took a fancy to Shen Xingwen's talent. People like Shen Xingwen are Pei Tan's right-hand man.
Shen Xingwen raised his eyebrows, deliberately surprised: "I didn't expect Shen to have such a good image in the eyes of the girl, Shen thought that the girl only had ...... in her eyes"
Shen Xingwen stopped abruptly, and seemed to smile again.
Jing Wan'er lifted the bucket and didn't want to say more to him: "Wan'er has said goodbye." β
Jing Wan'er walked a few steps with the bucket before a hand reached out and took the bucket in her hand.
Raising his head, Shen Xingwen smiled: "This kind of heavy work, it's better for Shen to help the girl carry it." β
Jing Wan'er subconsciously said: "How can this make Shaoqing ......?"
Jing Wan'er didn't mention the bucket, and the corpses were carried directly.
"The girl is welcome, she is an ordinary man, but if you see the girl's family doing manual work like this, you have to reach out to help."
When he said this, Jing Wan'er was not good at squeaking, which meant that if he didn't mention it, he wouldn't be a man.
Shen Xingwen took a few steps forward, but found that Jing Wan'er still deliberately kept a few steps away, and his lips were hooked.
"This Chang'an, for the girl, is really not a good place, Shen really didn't expect that the girl would be willing to return to Chang'an."
Who is Ren, after experiencing such a family change, he must want to be by his family's side and never be separated again.
You must know that Longyou is from Chang'an, which can be thousands of miles away. Jing Wan'er returned to Chang'an after a long journey.
"This Chang'an, is there anything else worth the girl's nostalgia?" Shen Xingwen asked more bluntly.
Jing Wan'er looked at Shen Xingwen with Ling Ling's eyes: "Wan'er is in Chang'an, and there are still unfinished business." β
What's more, as long as it is the people of the Tang Dynasty, who does not cherish the Tang Chang'an.
Even if there are bad memories, Chang'an is still Chang'an. The irreplaceable place of Datang.
Shen Xingwen looked noncommittal, stared at her for a long time, and suddenly laughed, and then looked at Jing Wan'er with a pair of eyes, and his voice carried a touch of thick elegance: "In this case, how about Shen take the girl to visit the twelfth step of Chang'an and enjoy the street scene of Chang'an?" β
Such "enthusiasm" almost shocked Jing Wan'er. At this time, Shen Xingwen's gaze seemed to see something in front of him.
Suddenly, he took a step forward, turned around, and faced Jing Wan'er, also blocking Jing Wan'er's sight.
"Miss Jing."
Jing Wan'er frowned and looked at him suspiciously.
I saw Shen Xingwen smile: "If there was something offensive in the past, look at Miss Jing, don't mind." β
He was suddenly so solemn that Jing Wan'er never imagined it.
"In fact, there is no grudge between Shen and the girl, in the past, they had different positions, but now, even this position does not exist."
So the two can be regarded as ...... Laugh at the grudge.
After being stunned for a while, Jing Wan'er also said: "Where is Shaoqing, if you want to say that you have offended in the past, it is also Wan'er's offense, and Wan'er should compensate Shaoqing." β
Indeed, if you really want to talk about the past, it was Jing Wan'er who had "prejudice" against Shen Xingwen first. At the beginning, because of all kinds of things, there was a reason for it, but now that time has passed, Jing Wan'er naturally has no personal grudges against Shen Xingwen, and Shen Xingwen is indeed a rare talent.
Seeing Jing Wan'er say this, the smile on Shen Xingwen's lips deepened: "The girl said this, and Shen was also relieved." β
Jing Wan'er smiled at him.
My Fair Lady is like a beautiful flower, and such a smile is naturally open-minded and gentle.
Shen Xingwen looked at Jing Wan'er, remembering that Pei Tan told him that if this case was related to Jing Wan'er, shouldn't he be more dedicated, and there was a soft smile in his eyes: "I heard that the matter of the Changjie Restaurant is related to Miss Jing, and the adult asked Shen to take over this case, I don't know the girl, is it inconvenient to tell Shen more details?" β
Shen Xingwen moved slightly closer to Jing Wan'er.
When Jing Wan'er heard that it was a case, her expression immediately froze, "Naturally, what does Shaoqing want to know?" She guessed that Pei Tan might not personally investigate the case. If Dali Temple can handle this case well, it will naturally be the best.
Shen Xingwen got closer: "Naturally, the more detailed the better." β
It looked like he was next to Jing Wan'erβfrom a certain angle.
Until Shen Xingwen's breath almost hit Jing Wan'er's face. Jing Wan'er was shocked to realize that something was wrong, and in a shock, she quickly distanced herself from Shen Xingwen.
Jing Wan'er's face sank uncontrollably: "Shaoqing, what are you doing?" β
Shen Xingwen's behavior just now was like a disciple.
Shen Xingwen's face appeared with that familiar look of smiling but not smiling, staring at Jing Wan'er and saying, "I'm sorry, it's really a fair lady, a gentleman, Shen couldn't help but be emotional for a while......"
As soon as the word "emotional" came out, a clear and cold voice came from behind: "Shen Shaoqing, you are too presumptuous." β
Behind him, Pei Tan had just come back in an official uniform, standing there, I don't know how long.
