Chapter 476 Guessed (1)

The next day, Shen Miao got up late.

Xie Jingxing didn't arrive until three in the morning yesterday. After talking to him, he was already exhausted. He slept soundly all night and when he woke up, it was already very late.

Shen Miao rarely got up late, so Luo Xueyan assumed she was tired from the tribute banquet yesterday and had someone leave food for Shen Miao to eat when she woke up. Shen Xin and Luo Xueyan had gone to the Ministry of War early in the morning. Having just been reinstated, they still had a lot of old matters to sort out. Shen Qiu and Luo Ling were also away. Since Luo Ling needed to find a new job, Shen Xin had simply asked Luo Ling to help out Shen Qiu, to prevent those who bullied Luo Ling, a new arrival, from bullying him.

Thus, in this brand new "Chen Mansion", there were only Luo Tan and Shen Miao. Coincidentally, Feng An Ning had sent an invitation to Shen Miao today, asking her to accompany her to pick out some jewelry. Shen Miao had asked Luo Tan to go, and assigned a few guards from the Shen Mansion to Luo Tan, saying that she was tired today and wanted to rest in the mansion for a day.

Luo Tan said nothing more, and gave Shen Miao some instructions before leaving. After Luo Tan left, Shen Miao asked Mo Qing to deliver a letter to Guangwen Hall. Mo Qing responded and left.

Two years later, Dingjing had finally seen some changes. For example, Miss Liuying, once a popular figure in Baoxianglou and a top prostitute, was finally redeemed by the devoted and devoted Mr. Mo for a thousand taels of gold. Despite the loss of Miss Liuying, Dingjing had quietly revived the long-lost art of double-sided embroidery in recent years, with a single piece of silk fetching a hundred taels of silver. Rumors circulated that the embroiderer was not only exceptionally skilled but also incredibly beautiful. This, in turn, boosted the embroidery shop's fortunes.

Changing your way of life may not necessarily make things worse. No one knows what new hope will emerge after taking that step.

Liuying is living so well, and those who worry about her will naturally be happy. Pei Lang is a man of his word. The moment Shen Miao saw him at the tribute banquet, she had an idea in mind. Pei Lang has already earned Fu Xiuyi's trust, which is why Fu Xiuyi kept him by his side. Although Fu Xiuyi is suspicious, that has only intensified since he became king. To be fair, Fu Xiuyi still appreciates and cherishes talented people. Pei Lang is a man of great ambition, and Fu Xiuyi will definitely find ways to keep him by his side.

It was precisely because of this that, now that Fu Xiuyi had tested Pei Lang's talent, it was time to test his loyalty. She couldn't rashly go to see Pei Lang, lest she arouse Fu Xiuyi's suspicion.

This pawn has not yet crossed the border between Chu and Han.

She said, "Bring out a cloak."

Bailu and Shuangjiang were tidying up the house. Upon hearing this, they asked curiously, "Is the young lady going out?"

Shen Miao said, “There are things that need to be done.”

Bailu and Shuangjiang stopped talking. Guyu silently went forward to comb Shen Miao's hair, and Jingzhe had already gone to look for a cloak. Unconsciously, Shen Miao's maids immediately obeyed her orders. If anyone saw this, they would definitely be surprised. Even the maids trained in the palace were not necessarily so quick and calm.

After leaving the mansion and Mo Qing went to Guangwen Hall, Shen Miao called Ah Zhi. Shen Miao had become much closer to Shen Qiu's men. Back in the northwest, Shen Miao had given Shen Qiu many military strategies. Naturally, these were all things she had heard from Fu Xiuyi's staff, but she had simply copied them. However, in the eyes of others, Shen Miao was considered to be a brilliant and talented general. Those military leaders were all rough and tumble men, but they also admired Shen Miao's intelligence and showed her a lot of respect.

Shen Miao said to Ah Zhi, “Don’t tell anyone about your departure today.”

Ah Zhi's heart shuddered. He had originally pledged his loyalty to Shen Qiu, but now he felt the pressure multiplied under Shen Miao's clear eyes. He nodded and said, "Yes."
