Shen Chen hummed undeniably, got up calmly, and walked to the kitchen.

However, when he reached the corner, he looked up, and his eyes lit slightly.

Lin Xi was standing in the shadows, holding a plate with washed fruit in his hand, looking at him in a daze, not knowing how long he had been here.

His throat tightened, and when he was about to speak, Lin Xi had already turned around and walked lightly towards the kitchen.

Shen Chen also kept keeping up.

……

Lin Xi returned to the kitchen, still a little unable to come back to his senses.

Mother Liu was boiling water, and when she saw Lin Xi coming back, she called her respectfully, and saw that her expression didn't seem right, so she stepped forward to take the plate in her hand and wondered, "Madam, what's wrong with you?" ”

"I ......"

Lin Xi was just about to speak, but Mother Liu looked behind her and shouted, "Master." ”

Lin Xi's words choked in his throat.

Shen Chen, who was at the door of the kitchen, looked at Lin Xi deeply, his eyes couldn't move, and said, "Mother Liu, you go out first to do something else." ”

Mother Liu was stunned, didn't say anything, just answered, added some firewood to the stove, and left the space, leaving the space for Lin Xi and Shen Chen.

Lin Xi didn't know what to do for a while.

Seeing this, she simply went to the stove and sat down to light the fire, pretending that she had something to do.

Footsteps sounded, and Shen Chen's voice called to her.

"Lady?"

Lin Xi was so confused that he didn't reply.

The man crouched down beside her, reached out and grabbed her shoulder, broke her body over, and faced him directly.

"Lady, if you have any questions, you can ask the minister." Shen Chen said seriously.

Lin Xi was even more confused. And Wan Yan's words kept echoing in her ears, making her heart even more confused.

Under Shen Chen's gaze, Lin Xi finally couldn't hold back and said, "You...... Is what Wanyan said true, did you really start helping the imperial court? ”

She couldn't help but think of the plot of the original book that had been left behind by her for a long time.

The past two or three years can be said to be very ordinary, and it has nothing to do with the plot in the original book.

Sometimes Lin Xi remembered that she had traveled to a book, and it was a bit like a world away, but since she knew that Shen Chen had irreconcilable contradictions with the imperial court, she was actually more at ease. Because that doesn't mean it...... Shen Chen won't return to the court, and the plot of the original book won't begin?

But now, Shen Chen's attitude towards the court has changed.

Isn't the plot of the original book not beginning, but only starting from now on?

Shen Chen was stunned by the question, and said, "Lady, I thought you would ask me about the famine that Wanyan said." ”

Therefore, he was very panicked, afraid that Lin Xi would think that he was a little cruel and ruthless if he ignored it.

Unexpectedly, the first thing Lin Xi asked him would be this.

Lin Xi said: "I asked you what you were doing?" Since the county came back, you and I have been getting along almost every day, even when we were in the county, and there were few times when we were separated. So something happened somewhere else, and I don't know if it's none of your business? Since it has nothing to do with you, why should I care too much? And didn't Wanyan say that it is not too serious now, that is, it can still be controlled, and there are people in the court who will take care of it. ”

It's not her business, why should she bother? She couldn't solve the problem, and she couldn't solve the famine.

Shen Chen was dumbfounded, and said with a smile: "What the lady said is true." ”

Lin Xi grabbed the placket of his clothes and asked, "You answer my question just now." ”

Shen Chen sighed and said, "Lady, I'm not helping the court, I'm just waiting for the right time to do what I have to do." ”

"What Wanyan said......"

"He is not ambitious, and sooner or later he will attack Daqin. Although I am not a member of the imperial court now, I am still a Qin person, so I can't let him get news from me. But he was half right, I am indeed not as repulsed by the court as I used to be, and I know a lot of things. ”

Lin Xi looked at Shen Chen stunned.

Her instincts told her that there must be something else hidden in this.

But she also believed that Shen Chen was measured. If he hadn't explained it to her, he must have felt that she was not suitable to know at this time. He wouldn't be bad for her.

That's enough.

Lin Xi was silent, nodded and said, "I remember." ”

Shen Chen stretched out his hand and hugged her, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, lady, even if this world starts to be chaotic, Xianggong will protect you and won't let you have anything to do." ”

Lin Xi hummed and secretly decided that she would push her business plan faster after the year!

No matter what kind of world it is, there is a foundation for one's life, and there are people and things that others need, it is always right, and it is convenient to do anything.

"Okay, okay, Wanyan didn't say he wanted jerky, he loaded it and brought it to him, let him leave quickly. Otherwise, if he leaves a little later, the southern border doesn't know what will change. Lin Xi took the initiative to change the topic.

Shen Chen bowed.
