Due to the vast area of Fuwang's Mansion, the Juqing Hall located in the front yard is a little far away from the Kaiju Garden in the backyard.

"Meet His Royal Highness King Fu and the princess-" As soon as he entered the hall door, Xu Shaoting immediately took Ye Tan and walked forward, and politely raised his hand towards the two people who were sitting in the hall facing the hall door.

"The second son and the lady don't need to be polite," Zhu Changxun put down the white chess pieces in his hand, turned around slowly, and pointed to the rosewood Yunfu circle chair on the side with a light smile, "Please sit-"

"Thank you, Lord Wang." Xu Shaoting respectfully agreed, led Ye Tanlu and walked over slowly, and sat down on the two seats next to each other.

The two of them had just sat down, and Ping Qian had already come in with freshly brewed hot tea, took a few steps inside, and placed the tea cups in the lacquered plate in their hands on the table next to the four of them one by one.

After she retreated with the empty lacquer plate, Xu Shaoting groaned slightly, clenched his fists with both hands, and raised himself towards Zhu Changxun on the main seat again: "The grace of the prince to save his life, Shaoting is unforgettable, if the prince can use Shaoting and the Xu family in the future, please just open your mouth, Shaoting will definitely be ruined!" ”

"This king doesn't dare to let you smear your liver and brains," Zhu Changxun glanced at Jiang Shu beside him, and said with a slight movement in his eyes, "You are the princess's brother-in-law, even if you are only injured, I'm afraid she won't forgive this king." This king only hopes that if there is a need in the future, the second son can help in terms of financial and material resources. ”

"This is not a problem, please do not hesitate to command-" Xu Shaoting nodded without hesitation.

"The second brother-in-law promised so quickly, aren't you afraid that he will open his mouth when the lion opens his mouth?" Jiang Shu knew that one of Zhu Changxun's purposes for saving him was this, and it was not surprising that he would take the opportunity to make such a request.

Xu Shaoting slowly turned his head and moved his gaze to her: "As the saying goes, 'the grace of a drop of water is reciprocated by a spring', the prince is a life-saving grace to Shaoting, not to mention a part of the property, it is to Shaoting's life, and Shaoting will also give——"

"......" Jiang Shu's expression stiffened slightly.

Whose family saved people's lives and planned to go back?

If you really want to, why bother to save it? Are you full of food?

However, it was inconvenient to say this, after a pause, thinking of something, she said again: "By the way, I heard from the eldest brother that the second brother-in-law's asthma is pretending?" ”

“…… So to speak. Xu Shaoting hesitated for a moment and nodded again.

"What do you mean?" Jiang Shu was a little puzzled by this ambiguous answer.

Xu Shaoting was silent for a moment, looked at her and said, "In the past six years, I have indeed pretended to be sick, but six years ago, I was indeed a frail and sickly sick man. ”

“…… That...... How is the second brother-in-law good? "This asthma is modern asthma, this is not a disease that is easy to treat, even in the modern era of advanced medicine, there is no way to completely cure it.

"It's a long story," Xu Shaoting said, "This has to start from six years ago-"

After a pause, he sighed and spoke softly: "I have been weak and sick since I was a child, and I have been sick since I was born. Six years ago, when I was seventeen, I couldn't walk steadily. For a while, rumors spread in the house, saying that the second young master's deadline was approaching, and it was difficult to live past eighteen. During that time, the double torture of body and mind made me almost collapse, until one day, I was really fed up with the days of counting my fingers and waiting for death, so I found a reason, took all the people around me, and quietly left the house alone......"
