Chapter 79 The Second Brother Has a Mental Illness
Feicui ran to Shen Qingtang crying and checked her from head to toe: "Fourth Princess, luckily you are fine. When you were captured by the assassin, we were all very worried."
She turned to look at Lu Jiuan and thanked him: "Thank you General Lu for bringing the Fourth Princess back safely."
When Lu Jiuan was mentioned, Shen Qingtang suddenly remembered that the general's token was still on her.
"Feicui, has anyone bullied you during the days I was away?"
Feicui shook her head: "No one bullied us."
She looked at Shen Qingtang with excitement: "The emperor came to the Zhuoyue Palace to see us before."
"It seems that the emperor really cares about the safety of the Fourth Princess."
"Really?" Shen Qingtang was a little confused about her father's tricks.
[He cares about me? Impossible. 】
"Yeah!" Feicui nodded vigorously.
"Feicui, you guys just stay outside." Shen Qingtang walked into the hall, "General Lu, come in."
"Yes, Fourth Princess."
Feicui was guarding outside the door. Shen Qingtang avoided the sight of others and took out the general's token and returned it to Lu Jiuan.
"General Lu, thank you for hiding this from my father."
Shen Qingtang looked at him with puzzled eyes: "General Lu, why did you help me?"
【Didn't Lu Jiuan always listen to my father the most? He didn't tell on me? 】
"Is there something you need my help with?"
Lu Jiuan took the general's token and shook his head gently: "No, I don't need the Fourth Princess' help with anything."
In order to hide his feelings, Lu Jiuan could only think of a better reason to convince Shen Qingtang.
"When I was injured before, the Fourth Princess not only came to visit me in person, but also reminded me to be careful to guard against the spies in the mansion and protect my mother's safety."
"I have always kept this in mind. The reason why I concealed this matter for the Fourth Princess was to repay the Fourth Princess' kindness to me."
[So that's it. ]
"Okay."
After a moment, Shen Qingtang's face became a little unnatural, and he looked at Lu Jiuan awkwardly.
"General Lu, what I did to you that night..."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Jiuan's ears turned red, and the scene of kissing Shen Qingtang that day immediately came to his mind. He recalled it carefully afterwards.
"General Lu, I didn't know you had a lover at that time, and I didn't mean to flirt with you."
"No, even if you don't have a lover, I shouldn't treat you like that."
"This time, even if I owe you, if you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me, I will definitely help you if I can."
After hearing Shen Qingtang's latter words, Lu Jiuan felt more and more uncomfortable.
He emphasized again: "Fourth Princess, I don't have a lover."
"I don't take what happened that day to heart, Fourth Princess, don't worry about it."
Shen Qingtang looked at him in confusion.
[Why is he suddenly angry? ]
[I admit my mistakes with a very sincere attitude? ]
[Are you feeling shy because I exposed your thoughts? ]
"Anyway, I was wrong in this matter. The promise I just made will always count."
"Okay, I'll remember that."
With this promise, Lu Jiuan had a weak connection with Shen Qingtang, which made him feel better.
As long as the emperor didn't let him go back, Lu Jiuan would always protect Shen Qingtang, and he returned to his position.
The news of Shen Qingtang's return to the palace spread quickly.
Shen Qingtang never dreamed that the first person who would take the initiative to come and care about her would be her second brother?
Shen Chengyu surrounded Shen Qingtang and looked her up and down, looking at her with concern.
"Qingtang, are you okay? I heard from father that you suffered a lot outside."
Shen Qingtang now plays the role of a well-behaved and sensible person in front of her father. She cannot show her true colors in front of other people.
Shen Qingtang's eyes were red, and she said aggrievedly: "Yes, second brother, I almost couldn't come back."
[No, second brother, our relationship was not good before, why did you take the initiative to come and care about me today? ]
"Ah, is it so serious?" Shen Chengyu was shocked.
At that time, except for Lu Jiuan, Shen Chengyu was the last person to see Shen Qingtang.
When he heard Shen Qingtang say that he was a beggar before and didn't understand the rules of the palace, Shen Chengyu's heart softened, but he was angry that Shen Qingtang destroyed the love of his eldest brother.
Despite this, Shen Chengyu never expected that after that incident, Shen Qingtang would be captured by an assassin, and his life or death was unknown.
He often wondered if he had stayed in the Moon-Catching Palace for a while longer, would Shen Qingtang be safe?
It just so happened that during this time, Shen Chengyu found several friends who looked like spies from the enemy country.
To be honest, if he hadn't heard Shen Qingtang's thoughts, he wouldn't have known about this.
In Shen Chengyu's heart, he still had a little gratitude towards Shen Qingtang.
"Qingtang, I heard that you were poisoned?"
"Do you want me to ask the imperial physician to see you?"
Shen Qingtang:...
[No, second brother, are you okay? ]
[Take a good look at who I am. I am Shen Qingtang, not Shen Muchen. Why are you so nice to me for no reason! ]
[I'm scared, okay! 】
"No need, Second Brother, I will be well soon." Shen Qingtang waved his
hand politely. Shen Chengyu felt a little depressed. He took the initiative to care about Shen Qingtang today, but Shen Qingtang felt scared instead.
Is he a very scary person?
"Qingtang, didn't you say before that there was no one in the palace to teach you?"
"I heard from my father that you will be organizing the New Year's Eve banquet with Minister Wang this time. Do you need me to help you?"
Shen Chengyu showed a gentle smile, trying not to look so scary.
Shen Qingtang was stunned.
[I have only been away from the palace for more than a month, and you have changed so much? ]
[What have you been through? Is there anything I don't know? ]
[Weird, it's really too weird. ]
[Were you abducted? ]
Shen Chengyu:...
He just treated Shen Qingtang a little better. Was Shen Qingtang really so surprised?
Shen Chengyu couldn't help but start to reflect, was he really too fierce to Shen Qingtang before?
Shen Qingtang nodded with a smile: "Okay, thank you very much, second brother."
[Never mind, just think that the second brother is crazy. ]
[The second brother took the initiative to help me do things, Shen Muxin will be furious when she knows, hahaha. ]
[Just thinking about it makes me feel comfortable. ]
Shen Chengyu: ...
His mouth twitched slightly twice, telling himself not to be angry, it was the first time he was so nice to Shen Qingtang, it was normal for Shen Qingtang to not believe it.
