Chapter 156: A Shark Girl Appears in the Border City
Shu Zhihan lowered her head all the way, and couldn't help but have doubts in her heart.
Why does it seem easier to cry now?
There are also people who have the same thoughts as her, Luo Jinyu, he also feels a little strange, could it be that something happened in it?
The two of them hurried out of the place.
But no one thought to look back at them again, and a man with his back to them, crouched down, and picked up the white pearl they had left on the ground.
He pinched it in his hand and played with it, a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth.
Then he stood up, took the pearl in his palm, and left the place.
Shu Zhihan followed Luo Jinyu back to the General's Mansion again.
Back to the room.
Luo Jinyu immediately asked, "What are you doing when you go out?"
"I ......"
Shu Zhihan didn't know how to answer this question, so couldn't she tell him directly that she wanted to buy him something delicious?
It's too unambitious and embarrassing to say that.
Luo Jinyu looked at her hesitantly, and a trace of bad feeling flashed in her heart, could it be that she really wanted to leave when she went out, but she was accidentally discovered by herself, so she reluctantly followed back?
Suddenly, the two of them fell silent.
After half a ring.
Luo Jinyu stood up slowly, and was about to go out, but was stopped by her.
"Are you leaving?"
As he spoke, Shu Zhihan trotted to his side, one hand grabbing his arm tightly.
"Where are you going?"
Luo Jinyu turned his head to look at her, and saw a hint of nervousness in her eyes, and was slightly stunned in her heart.
What is the situation of her, why is she showing such a look?
He gently shook Shu Zhihan's hand and said softly, "I just want to go out and let them prepare some food, are you worried that I want to leave?"
Do you feel a little nervous and scared?"
Shu Zhihan didn't expect him to say so many words, so he nodded subconsciously.
"In this way, you will feel worried, then think about it yourself, just now, when you left the General's Mansion, did you think about whether I would be worried, would I be afraid?"
Listening to what he said, as if he was confessing, Shu Zhihan couldn't help but pause slightly.
Then she hugged Luo Jinyu's waist tightly and buried her head deep in his chest.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, actually, I just went out just now to buy you some tonkoloaf, I didn't want to leave, really."
Luo Jinyu listened to what she said, looked at her eyes, and felt that it didn't look like she was lying.
But he still asked incredulously, "You really don't want to leave?"
Shu Zhihan raised her head from his arms, showed a sweet smile and said, "Of course, I worked so hard to get to you, why did I give you away so easily?"
Listening to this, it was as if I had seen her as usual.
Luo Jinyu smiled helplessly and happily, and gently touched the back of her head with one hand, making it lean against her chest.
His two long arms wrapped around her tightly, as if trying to melt her into his body.
At the same time as they were with Meimei, what they didn't know was that at this time, there was a commotion in Mingjing City.
Above the court.
Prime Minister Jiang stood in the center with his hands clenched into fists, and bowed to the Ninety-Five Supreme above.
"Your Majesty, Weichen heard that there were sharks in the border city, and when he heard the news, he couldn't wait to tell the saint."
As soon as his words came out, Master Shu, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but clench his fists.
When the emperor heard that there was a shark
When you are a human being, your eyes seem to be glowing.
He leaned forward and asked nervously, "Jiang Aiqing, is this news credible?"
"Your Majesty, the housekeeper in the Weichen Mansion is a person from the border city, and some time ago he took leave to return to his hometown to deal with some family affairs, and it happened that one day he met a woman on the street.
At that time, he just thought that the woman's appearance was extremely moving, and he didn't think that the woman would cry so lightly that a white and flawless pearl would fall.
When he found this, he hurried all night to come back, and he brought back this pearl."
As he spoke, Prime Minister Jiang took out a small brocade box and raised his hands high.
When the emperor saw it, he hurriedly waved his hand at the eunuch beside him, "Quick, bring it to me and take a look."
The eunuch hurriedly walked down, took the brocade box from Prime Minister Jiang Cheng's hand, gently opened the lid, and then handed it to the emperor.
He looked at the pearl lying in the box, and couldn't help but be a little stunned, thinking to himself, this one can sell for a lot of silver taels.
"Wonderful, really wonderful, not bad."
The emperor's eyes showed an extremely satisfied look, and then he raised his head and immediately asked, "Jiang Aiqing, did you just say that it was a woman, and she looked extremely attractive?"
"Back to the emperor, yes, according to the description of the housekeeper in my house, the woman's skin is snow-white, her face is like a blooming white lotus, and her two eyes are extremely beautiful, as if they are two grapes, which makes people feel refreshed at a glance.
It is said that when the woman passed by, she would still emit a faint fragrance."
As Prime Minister Jiang spoke, his eyes sneaked a glance at the emperor from time to time, and he saw that he was rubbing his hands, and his face was full of longing.
He immediately exaggerated and said: "I don't know if the emperor still remembers that back then, there were indeed a lot of sharks in the border city, but after that battle, those sharks died and disappeared.
It's not impossible to say that they live in seclusion somewhere."
Hearing this, the emperor couldn't stop nodding, "What Jiang Aiqing said is extremely true, so, according to what Aiqing said, what should be done?"
His thoughts were actually ready to come out, but he just wanted to kick the ball over, and this head was not to be pulled by himself.
Prime Minister Jiang Cheng clasped his hands into fists and said, "Your Majesty, according to your humble opinion, you should immediately send someone to the border city to investigate.
If you can really find that mermaid and bring her into the palace, even if it is just like that, then maybe it will be able to prolong your life, and if this girl can give birth to a son and a half daughter for Your Majesty, maybe it will be like."
Listening to his words, the officials below were all talking to each other.
Master Shu really couldn't listen to it, so he took a step forward, "Prime Minister Jiang, please be cautious, how can you say such frivolous words in this hall."
The emperor listened to his words and immediately interrupted, "Master Shu, it's serious, Prime Minister Jiang is also thinking about me, but, Prime Minister Jiang, do you have any candidates to go?" ap.
He seemed to be talking to Master Shu, but after just saying that, he immediately turned his face and looked to the other side.
When Prime Minister Jiang heard the emperor's question, a wicked smile appeared on his face, and he immediately said: "Back to the emperor, back then, Master Shu was a man of great merit, according to what Weichen saw, it was the best thing to send Master Shu to go this time."
"You ......"
Shu Taishi's face darkened on the spot, and he stretched out his hand to point at him, but was interrupted immediately.
"Master Shu, don't be so angry, this time I asked you to go, in fact, it was for your own good."
Prime Minister Jiang turned to look at it and said, "The emperor doesn't know, the housekeeper in the court's mansion saw that the woman was curious, so he went to investigate.
Unexpectedly, people in the market said that the woman was actually the wife of General An Yuan, who was stationed in the border city."
His words seemed to be specially said to Master Shu, and when he saw him a little stunned, he was in a good mood.
The emperor also felt a little stunned when he heard this, and immediately turned his face and asked, "Shu Aiqing, I vaguely remember that your daughter was married to General An Yuan, right, so what is going on?" How can your daughter be a merman?"
Everyone whispered when they heard this.
Prime Minister Jiang immediately said, "Master Shu, so I said that it is best for you to investigate this matter this time.
In this way, some rumors in the market will be self-defeating."
"What rumors?"
The emperor seems to be very interested in this.
"Back to the emperor, it's some untrue remarks, some people rumor that it was Master Shu who brought the merman back to raise it, but ah, Weichen didn't want to believe it, so he thought that Mr. Shu would go in person to break these untrue remarks."
The emperor nodded, "Shu Aiqing, in that case, do you have anything to say, or is your daughter really a merman?"
Master Shu's heart was tightly pulled by a hand, and he hurriedly saluted, "Wechen is willing to go to the border city to find out."
After listening to him, Prime Minister Jiang Cheng said again: "Your Majesty, the minister's housekeeper also heard a news in the border city, saying that General An Yuan did not marry Master Shu's daughter at all, and the two have not yet completed their marriage."
There is something in his words, and anyone with a discerning eye knows what they mean.
first praised Shu Zhihan as if there was nothing in heaven and on earth, and then said that he was not married.
This is not to tell the emperor that she is still a big girl with yellow flowers, so let her be called back and included in the palace.
There are also some officials who don't understand very well, they all know that he and Taishi Shu don't deal with each other, why would they think about sending his daughter to the emperor's bed?
But there is no shortage of some that can be carried clearly.
In the entire backyard of the palace, it's not all Prime Minister Jiang and his daughter who are in charge.
Although his daughter is only a concubine, she has won the favor of the emperor, and she is almost calling for wind and rain in the harem.
In this way, even if Shu Zhihan enters the harem, he will not have much ability.
The most important thing is that the news sent back by his people is that Luo Jinyu has feelings for this woman, and the two should get married soon.
