Chapter 120 Enemy
Chen Wan was mentally prepared. Xie Jingyu was meticulous and after more contact with him, he would eventually notice something was wrong, but she didn't expect that day to come so soon.
His body was stiff, but his heart was beating like a drum. Shen Wan said angrily, "Why did you lie to me?!"
Xie Jingyu looked into Shen Wan's eyes and said, "I'm very curious. When did someone who just came to Beijing to look for relatives on the day of the Lantern Festival help you?"
Shen Wan, “…”
Fu'an only arrived in Beijing on the day of the Lantern Festival?!
Chen Wan didn't know about this. She only knew that Fu'an was deceived after the Lantern Festival and sold into the palace to be a eunuch.
Chen Wan knew that Fu An was kind-hearted and not very smart, but he wouldn't be so gullible. How come he wasn't sold on the way to Beijing to find his relatives?
Not only did he help her find someone, but he also found out so much. How should she answer?
Unable to answer, Shen Wan stopped answering and looked at Xie Jingyu with a vigilant face, "Why are you asking so clearly?"
Xie Jingyu said, "You are my Crown Prince's Consort, your benefactor is my benefactor, shouldn't you ask for clarity?"
Who is his Crown Princess? !
Shen Wan looked at Xie Jingyu and said, “My benefactor is your benefactor, but what about my enemy?”
"He is naturally my enemy."
very good.
Shen Wan looked towards where the dagger was hidden.
She wanted to get the dagger and give it to Xie Jingyu, so that this bastard could kill her and avenge her.
Shen Wan didn't say anything, but her thoughts were all on her face, so Xie Jingyu could easily guess what she was thinking.
Shen Wan wanted to get up, but Xie Jingyu held her so tightly that she couldn't move, "Let me go!"
There was a slight tremor in the voice.
Chen Wan was afraid. In her previous life, she was the queen, although it was just a nominal title, but outsiders didn't know. Xie Jingyu had offended her again and again. Now she was his future prince consort, and in her boudoir, Chen Wan was afraid that he would do something wrong, and she was powerless and could not resist.
Xie Jingyu stared into Shen Wan's eyes and asked, "Tell me, how did you know that the emperor would leave the palace and be assassinated at that time?"
Why is this person so curious?
Shen Wan said, "I dreamed about it."
Xie Jingyu laughed, "Do you think I'm so easy to fool?"
Shen Wan also smiled, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask the emperor.”
Xie Jingyu, “…”
Such a poor excuse.
The emperor actually believed it?
Xie Jingyu had nothing to say.
Shen Wan used the emperor to block Xie Jingyu's crime, and she didn't even tell her when the emperor asked her, so he should forget about it.
"Where is Fu'an?" Shen Wan asked again.
"He's at my place."
Shen Wan said, "He is mine!"
Xie Jingyu chuckled, "Even you are mine, let alone yours."
Who is his?
What's wrong with this person? She feels uncomfortable if she is not teased for a day.
Chen Wan's eyes flickered with fire. Xie Jingyu said, "Bringing someone of unknown origin into the mansion, my father-in-law will definitely question him. There are other people with ulterior motives. Do you really want me to send him back?"
Shen Wan hesitated.
Xie Jingyu curled his lips and said, "You will marry me next month. Even if I send you back, I will still have to go to my Jingbei Palace with you. Why bother with this?"
Shen Wan was somewhat convinced. She was indeed not as thoughtful as Xie Jingyu in her work, but, "Can Fu'an just enter your Jingbei Palace casually?"
Her father holds military power and is worried about spies sneaking into Duke Dingguo's mansion, so Prince Jingbei will be even more cautious.
Xie Jingyu smiled and said, "I will place him on the farm first, and then let him enter the mansion after you get married."
But he could never imagine how a person who was deceived and sold into the palace when he came to Beijing could help Shen Wan. But since Shen Wan was so concerned about him, the help he had done must be significant.
Xie Jingyu made thoughtful arrangements, so Chen Wan did not insist on bringing anyone into Duke Dingguo's Mansion. As long as Fu'an was not tricked into the palace, she would see if she could help Fu'an find his relatives later.
Shen Wan made up her mind and came to her senses to find that she was still sitting in Xie Jingyu's arms. Her face was flushed, but when she wanted to get up, Xie Jingyu held her arm tightly. Shen Wan struggled a few more times, and then something pressed against her.
Shen Wan, “…”
Xie Jingyu, “…”
Shen Wan wanted to die.
The memory of being nearly bullied in the previous life surged in my mind like a tide.
Just when she was afraid that he would do something excessive, her waist was suddenly pinched. She panicked and then she was carried to sit on a stool nearby.
Xie Jingyu drank the tea, his ears turned red.
Shen Wan, “…???”
Is she blind?
This bastard actually blushes.
Seeing Chen Wan looking at him, Xie Jingyu put down the teacup, looking very annoyed, "I'm leaving."
Before he finished speaking, the person was no longer in the room.
Shen Wan suspected that there was something wrong with her eyes. She not only saw the blush on Xie Jingyu's face, but also saw the panic of fleeing.
Was it possible that someone so overbearing and shameless in his previous life would show such an expression simply because he failed to remain calm in the face of a woman's lap? She would rather believe that she was blind.
…
The next day, the weather was fine and the sky was clear and cloudless.
After Shen Wan said good morning to the old lady, she took the prepared makeup and went to Mingyue Garden to find Shen Yu.
Shen Wan handed over the makeup and said, "This is what I embroidered for my elder sister. Do you like it?"
Shanhu said, "The girl has been embroidering for several days. She is very attentive."
How could Shen Yu not like it? Her nose was sore, and she held Shen Wan's hand and said, "Why are you suffering from this for your elder sister?"
Chen Wan smiled and said, "Eldest sister and the Prince of Zhaoping are finally able to get married. I am happy for you."
Tears welled up in Chen Yu's eyes.
In fact, she still couldn't believe that she could marry the Prince of Zhaoping again, and she always worried that it was a dream.
Chen Yu asked the maid to carefully put away the additional makeup that Chen Wan had sent. The two sisters sat down to talk privately, but before they had said a few words, the little maid came in and said, "Miss, the eldest young lady from the Left Vice Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of Personnel has brought you some additional makeup."
Shen Yu immediately stood up to greet him. Not long after she left the courtyard, she saw Mrs. Zhou, the daughter of the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. She was the daughter of the Chief Academician of the Imperial College and was a close friend of Shen Yu.
Seeing Shen Yu, Mrs. Zhou said happily, "Congratulations."
Chen Yu smiled and said, "I should be congratulating you. Your baby is one month old, and I didn't even go to see you."
Madam Zhou said, "Why should we be so distant with each other? I am truly happy for you."
Chen Yu didn't have many good friends in the boudoir, and they were all married. Those who could come came to give her extra dowry, and those who couldn't come sent their maids to deliver it. Chen Wan helped to greet them, and Chen Wu and Shen Yao also came to help.
That day, in the garden pavilion, Chen Yu invited the eldest young lady of General Fuyuan's mansion to have tea. A maid came over and said, "Miss, Princess Jiangling of Prince Yong's mansion sent a maid to bring you some makeup."
Hearing that Princess Jiangling had sent a maid, Shen Yu said happily, "Please come in."
Chen Wu and Chen Yao looked at each other and felt strange.
When did Princess Jiangling become friends with the elder sister?
Before, Princess Jiangling had given her elder sister a pair of valuable jade hairpins, and today she sent a maid to deliver additional dowry. Although they were related and sent additional dowry, it was to curry favor, and Princess Jiangling did not need to do so.
