Shi Ling's face did not change, and Shen Xian was even more sure that something would definitely happen in the palace that made him feel bad, so he left the palace early.

Shi Ling seemed to be hesitating whether to say it or not, and after a long time: "Shi Ying proposed to marry her and Shen Yuanhe at the banquet. ”

Shen Xian was not too surprised, Shi Ying's admiration for her brother was about to overflow, and it was a problem not to express it.

"And then? The Holy One agreed? ”

Shi Ling shook his head: "Your brother refused." ”

Shen Xian frowned a little strangely: "My brother didn't agree?" Why? ”

Shi Ling shrugged his shoulders and said innocently: "I'm not your brother, how do I know?" ”

In his heart, he felt that Shen Yuanhe refused well.

If he were Shen Yuanhe, he would also refuse Shi Ying.

Although it's my own niece, I don't know how to grow that brain, and I don't have any inheritance with my family.

Shen Xian held her face and thought about it.

"Could it be that Brother has a favorite person? But I haven't heard him mention it. ”

At that time, Ying must have been looking for death and life at the moment, but according to this girl's character, it is estimated that she will forget Shen Yuanhe aside in two days and look like a man.

So Shen Xian didn't care very much.

Shi Ling saw that her complexion was changing, and the liking in her heart became more and more uncontrollable, and suddenly approached and bent down to wrap around her waist.

Shen Xian was overwhelmed by him in her arms, and she didn't even dare to move.

"What's wrong?"

Shi Ling closed his eyes and leaned on her shoulder, and said softly: "The palace Xiuniang has already made the wedding dress, I'll have someone send it to you in two days, okay?" ”

Shen Xian nodded: "Okay." ”

"How long do we have to get married?"

"It's been more than a month."

Shi Ling rubbed her shoulder with her chin dissatisfied: "It's really slow." ”

Shen Xian still felt that it was too fast, many gold and silver jewelry had not had time to be finely polished, and she had to be delicate and beautiful from head to toe on the day she got married.

Because the wedding date is approaching, Shen Xian has also been busy recently, either asking someone to come to take care of her beautiful face, or going out to choose beautiful clothes to clean up.

On this day, Shen Xian was going to the west of the city to find a mother-in-law to clean her face, but she was told that all the carriages at home had left.

There are three carriages in the family, one Ye Hao went to Guoxiang Temple to burn incense in the morning, and one Shen Chongyuan entered the palace, who else is it?

"Miss, it's the prince."

Although the saint rewarded Shen Yuanhe with the house, he felt that he had little time to spend with his family in the past, and now he wanted to stay at home to fulfill his filial piety.

Shen Xian was surprised.

Isn't it Brother Xiumu today?

Shen Xian didn't go angrily, so she simply spent money to call someone to the house.

And Shen Yuanhe, who used the carriage, didn't know that his sister was complaining about him at the moment, but was still boating and drinking on the lake with people, and he was very happy.

He put down his wine glass and looked at the person in front of him jokingly: "Speaking of which, does the prince have to call me brother with Ruan Ruan?" ”

Shi Ling's face froze, and he picked up the wine glass to cover up the unnaturalness.

"This king called you, do you dare to respond?"

Shen Yuanhe thought about that picture, shuddered, shook his head and said, "Forget it, I always feel that I will lose my life." ”

Only then did Shi Ling retract his eyes and pour the wine into his mouth.

"How was this trip to Jiangsu?"

Shen Yuanhe said with a smile: "Thank you to the prince for giving me this opportunity, if it weren't for the prince sorting out the position of Shangshu, how could I be so fast?" ”

Shi Ling stared at the stove where the wine was boiling and didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.

It was a bit too hasty to completely trip the Zhao family, and His Majesty was repeatedly reluctant to do it, until Zhao Baolin bullied Shen Xian and gave him this opportunity.

Shen Yuanhe didn't know the inside story when he was in Jiangsu at that time, but he also vaguely knew something.

"Ruan Ruan has a simple temperament, I'm afraid that I still think that you are angry because of her."

Shi Ling frowned, and hurriedly wanted to put aside the topic.

"What to find in Jiangsu."

Shen Yuanhe reluctantly withdrew his eyes, poured the boiled wine into the cup, and said slowly through the heat: "Jiangsu Han Taishou has always been a cowardly and timid person, who dares to do the ridiculous thing of defrauding the imperial court of the official bank at the end of the period, I think someone is pointing behind his back." ”

He picked up his glass and took a sip.

"Moreover, the seizure of a Zhao Shangshu treasury directly fills half of it, but Han Taishou asks the court for a lot of money every year, and he squeezes the people to loot silver money all year round, but after it is confiscated, there is very little, and it is not even enough to repair the embankment he collapsed."

Shi Ling immediately understood what he meant.

Han Taishou is a coward, and he didn't even dare to change the decoration of the house at will for so many years, for fear that someone would see the clues, but he didn't squander it and had no money left.

Where did the embezzled money go?

"He's giving people money."

Both agreed with this answer, and glanced at each other tacitly.

This person's status must be higher than that of Han Taishou, and even the person who made him fearful, and had to help even at the risk of destroying the Nine Clans.

Shen Yuanhe: "I've looked at the files of the household department these days, and it's very messy, many people are surnamed Zhao, but the one who had an accident on the winter hunt is not." ”

"By the way, did the Winter Hunter Assassin find out?"

Shi Ling raised his eyebrows, and seemed to think of something and sneered: "There are clues, don't care, just wait for them to show their feet." ”

The hull of the boat shook suddenly, and Ah Feng looked at the sky and shouted, "Master, it's going to rain soon." ”

Shi Ling turned his head to look at the gloomy sky outside the boat, and the cold wind poured in, whining, like someone was crying.

Shen Yuanhe poked his head out and looked at the sweet dark clouds and frowned: "I'm afraid that this rain is not small." ”

Shi Ling suppressed the tiredness in his eyes: "It's not small, but it won't be long before it's over." ”

Shen Yuanhe nodded and touched Shi Ling's cup with his own wine glass: "Then I wish us success, oh yes, although you and I are brothers, but if you lose Ruan Ruan, I will not show mercy." ”

"I won't give you the opportunity to do it."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and after each drank the wine in their glasses, they went ashore and left.

The rain was pouring down, and even the road in front of me was blurred by the showers, and it fell mercilessly like a waterfall, and all the pedestrians on the street ran to their homes.

There was only one person standing alone on the street, although there was an umbrella to cover it, but the rain was so heavy that even the umbrella looked a little shaky and weak.

"Princess, it's raining too much, let's go back to the palace!" The little palace maid was afraid that Shi Ying wouldn't hear it, so she raised her volume.

Shi Yingfeng shivered, but she insisted on shaking her head: "If I go back at this time, won't I just wait in vain?" ”

She wanted to ask why Shen Yuanhe was unwilling to marry her!

And now that it's raining, if Shen Yuanhe sees it and feels distressed, she can take the opportunity to confess!

What an opportunity!

The little palace maid didn't understand, she only knew that if Shi Ying got wet, her life would be lost.

A carriage came slowly from the rainstorm, and the coachman couldn't open his eyes in the heavy rain, and he didn't notice that someone was running in front of him.

"Princess!"

Shen Yuanhe, who was originally pretending to be asleep, suddenly opened his eyes and shouted: "Stop!" ”
