Chapter 70: Sixth Brother, Do You Like Shen Yunyou?
"That's right, that's her Meng Yuqing's daughter, not my Xue Lanzhen." Xue Lanzhen had a tough attitude and confronted Shen Zhiyuan, and the atmosphere between the two made Ye Yunqian and Nangong Ruowu on the side feel scared, and they didn't dare to interject and say anything anymore.
Xue Lanzhen's eyes were bloodshot, and she was extremely sad that Shen Zhiyuan lost his mind as soon as he mentioned Meng Yuqing and Shen Yunyou.
"Shen Yunyou is not my daughter, so whether she is a princess or a future queen, she has nothing to do with me Xue Lanzhen!"
"Forget it, everyone should stop arguing." Ye Yunqian smiled awkwardly, stepped forward, grabbed Xue Lanzhen's arm, and persuaded: "It's all one family, don't talk about these two families." It's the most important thing to find Meng Yuqing now, and the rest will be talked about later. ”
After speaking, Ye Yunqian glanced at Nangong Ruowu. The two worked together to drag Xue Lanzhen out of the room, away from Shen Zhiyuan's line of sight.
Shen Zhiyuan looked at the backs of the three of them leaving, and sat down on the chair dejectedly. But the worry about Meng Yuqing in my heart has not diminished at all.
After Ye Yunqian and Nangong Ruowu sent Xue Lanzhen back to their residence, they also went their separate ways back to their own courtyards.
Ye Yunqian sat in the room, discussing the disappearance of Meng Yuqing with her own sons and daughters Shen Yunxiu and Shen Jinyu, as well as the daughter of the fourth lady Zhang Caiyi.
Ye Yunqian, because of Shen Yunyou's threat to herself before, has been helping Meng Yuqing to say good things in front of her master recently. also offended Xue Lanzhen and several others because of this. But Ye Yunqian can't help it, she has a handle in the hands of Shen Yunyou's dead girl, she can only do this! And Shen Yunyou also promised her that he would help his son win the property of the Prime Minister's Mansion. But now?
Shen Yunyou, the sparrow, has become a phoenix, not to mention helping himself, and even the number of times he returns to the Prime Minister's Mansion is getting less and less. Under this change, Ye Yunqian had to worry about her life and her children's future. also had to see the wind and steer the rudder, so that he could not anger Xue Lanzhen, a woman who still held the financial power of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Today's incident made Ye Yunqian understand Shen Zhiyuan's attitude towards Meng Yuqing's mother and daughter, and also understood Xue Lanzhen's state of being about to be unable to suppress her inner dissatisfaction and anger. It seems that no matter whether this dream Yuqing comes back or not, whether something happens or not, this prime minister's mansion can't avoid what changes will happen......
"Mother, auntie, did she really say that to her father?" Shen Yunxiu was surprised after listening to Ye Yunqian's words. After seeing Ye Yunqian nodded, Shen Yunxiu couldn't help laughing, and then under Ye Yunqian's dissatisfied gaze, she restrained herself a little.
"Auntie, what she said is right, that Meng Yuqing is not the right person to be in our prime minister's house. And that Shen Yunyou, who doesn't pee like herself, even wants to be the princess of Rui! Shen Yunxiu closed her mouth, Shen Yunzhu didn't mean to shut up. Hooking the corners of his mouth, Shen Yunzhu showed a disdainful smile. When she mentioned Shen Yunyou, she was full of anger. "Think about the time when she made the whole capital laugh at our prime minister's mansion, Prince Rui didn't know what to think! Look horizontally and vertically, how to pick and choose. I can't pick her up! You're right? ”
"That's it, I really don't know what Lord Rui thinks." Shen Jinyu, who had never spoken, nodded with a sneer. Then he turned the topic to the disappearance of Meng Yuqing. "You say, where did this dream Yuqing go? She usually doesn't go out much, but now she is fine, and suddenly she disappears. If she came back on her own, it would be nothing. If it's really like the princess of Liuyun a few days ago, someone killed her......"
"Jinyu, don't talk nonsense!" As soon as Ye Yunqian saw that her son had no brains to bring out the princess's affairs, she hurriedly stretched out her hand to block Shen Jinyu's mouth, signaling that he was not allowed to say any more.
Ye Yunqian and the others were muttering and discussing in the room, and Nangong Ruowu was not idle. happened to meet her daughter Shen Yunyu returning home, Nangong Ruowu, who hadn't seen Shen Yunyu for a long time, took her daughter's hand excitedly, sat on the bed and began to talk about Meng Yuqing.
Shen Yunyu listened to it in his ears and remembered it in his heart. After returning to the palace, he told Queen Liu Xinru about it.
Liu Xinru frowned and listened to Shen Yunyu's words, and said worriedly: "Yuqing used to be the personal maid of the palace, and her relationship with the palace is also very good. In case she really has three long and two short, this palace ......"
"Don't think too much about the queen, I see that she will return to the Prime Minister's Mansion in a few days." Shen Yunyu said to Liu Xinru with great certainty: "My father has always been more concerned about Aunt Meng's affairs, so he can't help but make a fuss. Yunyu has been back to the Prime Minister's Mansion several times in the past few days, and once there is news of Aunt Meng, she will come back immediately to inform the queen. ”
"Okay, okay." Liu Xinru nodded sadly, then thought about it and said, "Yunyu, go and send someone to call the prince." ”
Situ Rui was furious because of the departure of Shen Yunyou and Ye Zixuan, and after calling Situ Nan out of the palace, Situ Rui drank sullen wine in the mansion.
Situ Nan silently looked at Situ Rui's expression in his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh secretly. "Sixth brother, I heard that Ye Zixuan took Shen Yunyou to catch some thousand-handed thief this time, if you really can't rest assured, why don't you send some people to track them down, and then bring Yunyou back?"
"I sent people, but they were all dumped by Ye Zixuan." Speaking of this, Situ Rui clenched his fists violently, and a terrifying killing intent instantly crossed the bottom of his eyes.
Situ Nan raised his eyebrows, seeing that Situ Rui wanted to kill. Smiling slightly, Situ Nan drank all the wine in his hand and asked in a low voice, "Sixth brother, have you noticed that your attitude towards Shen Yunyou now is very different from before. You...... Do you like her? ”
"Just kidding, how could I possibly like a woman like her!" Situ Rui didn't think about it, so he denied Situ Nan's speculation.
"Then since you don't like her, why didn't you even lift a finger from her when she killed Chu Yu? You must know that in the past, you were not even allowed to touch Chu Yu. Situ Nan hit the nail on the head when he mentioned that Chu Yu was killed by Shen Yunyou, and said, "If you become like this because you like Shen Yunyou, then I can understand it." But if you don't like Shen Yunyou, then I can't figure it out, what are you doing this for? Shen Yunyou and Ye Zixuan left, although it was Ye Zixuan's idea, but it was also agreed by his father. Shen Yunyou is a smart woman, I don't say you also have a deep understanding. She is not gone forever, but she is about to come back after finishing things with Ye Zixuan. In that case, what are you anxious about? What are you worried about? Shen Yunyou is the princess Rui appointed by her father, are you still afraid that Ye Zixuan will do something to her? ”
Situ Nan pointed out that Situ Rui was wrong with sharp words, so that Situ Rui had to look directly at the problem of his feelings for Shen Yunyou.
Does he like Shen Yunyou? Or was he just unwilling, unwilling Shen Yunyou to leave Ye Zixuan in front of him like that, regardless of his own obstacles? Or both?
Situ Rui's eyes were misty and he turned his head to look into the distance, his mind in a mess. After a long while, he said faintly: "I don't like women who are too smart to control." ”
"But even if he wasn't very smart, Chu Yu, who didn't know how to play any tricks at the beginning, didn't he change in the end? Sixth brother, what you said is not the point. ”
Situ Nan's correction made Situ Rui shift his attention to him. Looking at Situ Nan, Situ Rui asked in a low voice, "So ninth brother, you recognize that I have feelings for Shen Yunyou?" ”
"I'm not sure, that's why I'm going to ask you, Sixth Brother." Situ Nan pouted and smiled, and he could understand Situ Rui's tangled mood very well. After all, Shen Yunyou is really different from other women. At least for Situ Nan, it was the first time he had seen such a smart woman.
From the beginning of Shen Yunyou, he helped the sixth brother to speak to his father, so that his father agreed to give the sixth brother time, and he would no longer care about Chu Yu's affairs for the time being. Later, Shen Yunyou helped Ye Zixuan solve the case and found out the serial murder case in the capital. Shen Yunyou, who has never been known, took over the business of the Prime Minister's Mansion and found out Liu Song, who had embezzled thousands of taels of the Prime Minister's Mansion. To Shen Yunyou's surprise, he rescued Ye Zixuan, who had been imprisoned in the dungeon by his father. All of this shocked Situ Nan. And Situ Rui, Situ Nan thinks that his feelings must be stronger than his own.
Shen Yunyou's transformation from a fool to her current appearance made everyone around her have to look at her with admiration. Even if Situ Rui doesn't say it, Situ Nan is sure that Situ Rui's heart has definitely changed.
Situ Nan's words made Situ Rui fall into deep contemplation. Shen Yunyou's changes, no one can understand more deeply than him. Think about the scene when Shen Yunyou was wearing residual makeup and couldn't get rid of the scene when he couldn't scold and follow him every day. Think about it again, Shen Yunyou skillfully handled every tricky thing that happened to her, and dealt with everyone smoothly. Situ Rui only felt that she had changed too much and too fast, so that he couldn't accept it for a while.
As Situ Nan said, Shen Yunyou is a smart woman. If this smart woman didn't stay by her side, but came to Ye Zixuan's side, then ......
As soon as Situ Rui thought of this possibility, a feeling of anger that he couldn't put words into words suddenly surged into his heart. His eyes turned crimson, Situ Rui drank the wine on the table one after another, and it was not until the person sent by Liu Xinru appeared that he stopped the movement of his hands.
"Huang Eniang is looking for the sixth brother so late, there must be something important." Situ Nan got up, looked at Situ Rui condescendingly, and said, "It's not too early, none of us should drink." I'll go back to the palace with you, Sixth Brother. ”
