Chapter 040: Isn't he afraid of giving Bai Yichuan a chance?
When Shen Yunchu left, it was when there were the most people inside and outside the school, she was holding a book, alone, walking in the crowd, since Gao Zhiyi came, the people who had a good relationship with her gradually stayed away from her.
Including Pei Xueyan, who had a good relationship with her in the past, has now become the closest person to Gao Zhiyi.
Although she sighed a little, Shen Yunchu was not sad, maybe she was already cold, or she didn't care about these clutches, if she wasn't close, she wouldn't be close, anyway, no one wanted to die or live, and it would be good if everyone was well.
But fortunately, so far, there is only Qian Baofeng who dares to come to find fault, and with Qian Baofeng's lesson, no one will dare to follow suit in the future.
Shen Yunchu was thinking about it, when a clear voice suddenly came from all around:
"I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants Qinzhou City for disaster relief, and it will be a few days before he comes back."
"Then if he leaves, what will Her Royal Highness do?"
"Yes, the two of them are inseparable, and the relationship is so good, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince leaves, I don't know if the princess will go with him."
Hearing this, Shen Yunchu suddenly stopped, and raised his eyes to look at the few people who were discussing, it was a few girls who had just come out of the women's dormitory.
They passed by Shen Yunchu, as if they didn't notice her at all, and in the midst of laughter and laughter, they only heard them say: "Let's go and have a look, I heard that we have arrived at the city gate." ”
Listening to their words, Shen Yunchu watched a few people leave, and did not come back to his senses until he couldn't see the figure at all, thinking about the words of a few people just now, a trace of worry uncontrollably rose in his heart.
She suddenly remembered that at this time in the previous life, there was indeed a serious famine in Qinzhou City, but the local officials chose to hide it for fear of being held accountable by the imperial court.
Or later it rained continuously, the heavy rain fell overnight for several days, floods were frequent, the people were displaced, the dead and wounded, the survivors were half-dead, it was a flood and a famine, and finally someone fought for his life and sued the imperial capital, and the matter was stabbed in front of Emperor Sheng'an.
Emperor Sheng An was furious and held several corrupt officials accountable and asked people to go to disaster relief, but at that time, Qinzhou City was already full of holes, not to mention the silver money, even the bark of the tree had been gnawed away.
For a while, no one dared to answer.
In the end, it was Shen Jichang who took the initiative to ask for his life, and went with disaster relief food and Shen Jiajun, and the three-day journey was almost a quick horse, and it took three months to calm things down, and when he came back, people were already old and thin.
Calculating the time, it is not yet the rainy season, and the matter of Qinzhou City should not have been reported to the imperial capital, so Bai Yuheng took the initiative to invite Ying?
But why?
The affairs of Qinzhou City will not be beneficial to him, and if he leaves the imperial capital at this juncture, is he not afraid of giving Bai Yichuan a chance?
"Miss Shen?"
Shen Yunchu was thinking about it, when the sudden voice behind her startled her, she subconsciously turned around, and just happened to crash into the man's gentle eyes.
It's Song Yuancheng.
Seeing the panic in her expression, Song Yuancheng hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, did I scare you?" ”
Hearing this, Shen Yunchu came back to his senses and hurriedly shook his head: "No, I was distracted." ”
Song Yuancheng smiled, but he didn't take it to heart, and only said: "I asked someone to find the book of "Elegant Poems" a few days ago, if the girl is free, go with me to get it now." ”
"Now?" Shen Yunchu looked at him, his expression a little tangled.
Song Yuancheng was puzzled: "Can't you?" ”
“……”
Shen Yunchu lowered his eyes and didn't say anything, Song Yuancheng seemed to see something, and he didn't care, he just smiled: "It's okay, if the girl is inconvenient, let's do it another day, and I'm not in a hurry to meet this time." ”
As he spoke, he bowed slightly, and was about to resign and leave, but at the end, Shen Yunchu gritted his teeth and stopped him: "Wait a minute, Brother Song." ”
She hurried after her and said, "Let's go now, no need to change the day, I'll be free." ”
Song Yuancheng stayed where he was, and didn't say anything, just looked at her with a worried expression, "But......" She looked like she was obviously in trouble.
Without waiting for Song Yuancheng to finish speaking, Shen Yunchu had already left the academy first, although Song Yuancheng was puzzled, he didn't ask anything more, so he had to follow her and leave the academy.
Shen Mansion, into the night.
East Courtyard.
The lights were flickering, the thin windows were printed with slightly yellowed candlelight, and in the room, Shen Yunchu was half-leaning in front of the window, holding a book in his hand, although his eyes fell on the book, but his thoughts had long since disappeared to where he had gone.
Linlang walked in the door with the washed fruit, put the fruit plate on the desk closest to Shen Yunchu, and then picked up the clothes she threw away, but when she looked back, she found that Shen Yunchu's eyes were still on the page when she first came in.
It has always been her habit to read a book before going to bed, and this has to be blamed on when she was three or five years old, Shen Yunchu was afraid of the dark, and she recognized her life, and the nurse always couldn't take her well, and she could only be honest with Bai Weiyu.
Bai Weiyu has this habit, Bai Weiyu doesn't sleep, she doesn't sleep, although she can't understand, but she still pretends to nest in Bai Weiyu's arms and stares, and after a while, she yawns and falls asleep.
Later, when she grew up and became literate, she gradually developed this habit, Linlang knew her best, she already had something on her mind, and she didn't tell anyone, just looked at the book in a daze.
"Miss?" Linlang called her several times, and Shen Yunchu suddenly came back to his senses, and his distracted pupils hurriedly focused on Linlang's face.
"Ah...... What's wrong? Shen Yunchu asked confused and confused.
Linlang looked at her, and couldn't stop worrying in her heart, after coming back from the Taishi Mansion, she was like this, I really don't understand, how can she take a book, and her soul is gone?
She sighed, stretched out her hand and pulled the book away from Shen Yunchu's hand, and said softly: "Miss, you have been reading for a long time, it's time to rest, although you don't have to get up early tomorrow to go to the school, but you can't read it too late." ”
Listening to Linlang, she realized that it was already the middle of the night, she didn't say anything, just breathed a sigh of relief, got up and got into bed.
Linlang blew out the candle and went out of the room, and after gently closing the door, the room fell silent again.
But somehow, Shen Yunchu couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, and he couldn't say why, so he always felt uneasy in his heart.
Night.
The surroundings were extremely quiet, tonight seemed to be extraordinarily quiet, there was not even a wind outside, Shen Yunchu was a little distracted, suddenly, there was a strange sound in the room, and the sleepiness that had been brewing was completely disrupted.
She sat up vigilantly and called, "Linlang? ”
Of course, no one answered her, and after a silence, she called again: "Four o'clock? ”
The room was still unusually quiet.
After a moment of silence, she frowned, got up from the bed, reached out to take the clothes on the side, and turned around to meet a pair of gloomy eyes.
The sudden impact frightened her so much that she quickly covered her mouth, so that she didn't scream, and with her other hand, she grabbed her clothes and closed her eyes tightly.
After waiting for a while, she dared to open her eyes, and the man in front of her stared at her with a smile on his face, it was Bai Yuheng.
He knelt down on one knee in front of the window, and the coldness on his body, dressed in black, was even worse than before.
In fact, in Shen Yunchu's impression, he rarely wears dark clothes, including dark colors, but his temperament is gloomy to the extreme, which is not commensurate with the bright yellow he often wears.
Shen Yunchu, who calmed down, looked at the man in front of her, and the anger in her heart rushed upward, if it weren't for the jealousy of him in her heart, she really wanted to slap him like she had slapped Qian Baofeng at the beginning.
