Chapter 125 Self-Responsibility
Xie Jingyu just watched Chen Wan run out, and Shanhu was also confused, because his girl not only ran out of the door, but also ran directly out of Qingyi Garden.
Is he trying to hide from the Prince of Jingbei as if he were a plague god, or is there something urgent that he needs to deal with?
Shanhu really didn't know that she was the girl's personal maid and had to follow her wherever she went.
Shanhu chased out and then turned back to close the door. She was afraid that the maid would come into the room and see Xie Jingyu, so she told the maid, "No one is allowed to enter the room until the young lady comes back."
However, this reminder is really unnecessary. The Prince of Jingbei came to see the girl. He would not stay in the girl's boudoir if the girl was not there.
Shen Wan ran out of the yard in one breath, gasping for breath from exhaustion.
She patted her chest and gasped, then she smelled a faint aroma of alcohol. She was in a trance for a moment, and then a dissatisfied, mellow voice came to her ears, "Run away when you see me?"
A familiar voice entered his ears, and Shen Wan's hair stood on end.
She tried to run, but failed this time because Xie Jingyu grabbed her arm.
Xie Jingyu didn't even use any force, just pulled lightly, and Shen Wan turned around and threw herself directly into his arms.
Shen Wan struggled hard, "You, you let me go!"
Xie Jingyu's face was very ugly. "Run away when you see me. Am I the God of Plague?"
Even the God of Plague is not as scary as him!
Especially when he's drunk, God knows what he can do.
If Shen Wan wasn't so scared, she wouldn't run away when she saw him. But she couldn't hide from him, and she wanted to die.
Shen Wan glanced at Xie Jingyu and quickly lowered his head, "If you have anything to say, can you let me go first?"
The voice was trembling a little.
Xie Jingyu's eyes were a little hurt. He didn't know why Shen Wan was so afraid of him. He had obviously been much better before, so why did he suddenly become like this again?
He let go of his hand, and Shen Wan hurriedly took two steps back and said, "Why did you drink so much?"
Thinking about marrying Xie Jingyu next month, Shen Wan felt that the sunny sky above her head had dimmed. She couldn't escape in the Dingguo Mansion, but if she went to the Jingbei Palace, wouldn't she be like a fish on his chopping board, bullied by him?
She knew that any decision she made on impulse would hurt her sooner or later.
The marriage was granted by imperial decree, and Xie Jingyu had helped her so much with her elder sister and elder brother, so there was almost no possibility of canceling the engagement.
The more Shen Wan thought about it, the more she wanted to die. Xie Jingyu took in the expression on her face and said, "I drank half of it for you."
Shen Wan was stunned when he heard this. "Drank it for me?"
"I drink it for you."
Shen Wan wanted to hear how to help her.
Xie Jingyu said, "You helped the Prince of Zhaoping. He wants to toast you, but you're not here. He wants me, your future husband, to drink on his behalf. I can't refuse, right?"
Shen Wan, “…”
Nothing to say.
Shen Wan said, "Then the toast will only be one glass."
"Your eldest brother has also joined in the fun, as has Prince Yuzhang and Chu Yang. They are thanking you for giving them the opportunity to save the emperor. A bunch of people, both those who knew about it and those who didn't, have come to toast you."
As Xie Jingyu spoke, he took a step closer to Shen Wan, and Shen Wan took two steps back.
Xie Jingyu looked into Shen Wan's eyes, his eyes like a wounded deer, "I'm dizzy, hold me up."
Shen Wan didn't know if he was really dizzy, but she still went forward to help him, helped him walk a few steps forward, put his hand on the tree, and let him hold on to the tree to steady himself.
Xie Jingyu, “…”
Chen Ping, who was standing on a tree not far away, "..."
Seeing this scene, Chen Ping almost fell off the tree from laughing.
Miss Shen Er is the only one who dares to make the prince so angry.
But as he laughed, Chen Ping couldn't laugh anymore.
Because he unexpectedly saw a secret guard squatting on a tree not far away.
Their eyes met.
Chen Ping, “……!!!”
He is the Duke of Dingguo’s man!
Looking at Shen Wan who was a few steps away from her, a certain master completely lost his temper and gritted his teeth and said, "You are so afraid of me, can I eat you?"
If she hadn't been worried about this, she wouldn't have been so scared and would have avoided him.
Fortunately, she was worried that he would molest other girls when he was drunk. The Mansion of the Marquis of Zhaoping and the Mansion of the Duke of Dingguo were only a few streets away, and he actually ran to the Mansion of the Duke of Dingguo. Was she particularly easy to bully?
Shen Wan was going crazy inside, "You drank so much, you should go back to Jingbei Palace to rest, you, you came to see me for something?"
Xie Jingyu walked towards Chen Wan, and Chen Wan quickly stopped him and said, "Just stand there and talk, don't come near me."
Xie Jingyu was so angry that his mouth almost tasted bloody.
But these feet just don't keep up and always walk towards her unconsciously.
Xie Jingyu said unhappily, "Embroider another purse for me."
Shen Wan, “…???”
The topic changed so quickly that Shen Wan felt dizzy. She asked blankly, "Didn't I give you a purse?"
Xie Jingyu said, "I went to the Zhaoping Marquis's mansion for a wedding banquet, but I don't know where it fell and I can't find it."
Shen Wan, “…”
Seeing Xie Jingyu's annoyed look, Shen Wan's voice was floating, "You came to me just for this?"
"What else?" Xie Jingyu asked back.
“…”
real.
Shen Wan wanted to swear.
Just for a purse, he came to Duke Dingguo's mansion drunk, scaring her like a frightened bird.
If he hadn't had a stick in his hand, Shen Wan would have wanted to beat him up.
She didn't understand. It was just a purse. If it was lost, it was lost. Why was it so serious? Shen Wan had to admit, "Okay, I'll embroider another one for you. Go back quickly."
Xie Jingyu pointed at his face, and his meaning was obvious: he wanted to kiss him before leaving.
Chen Ping wished he could rush over, knock his own prince unconscious and carry him away.
If this gets to the ears of Duke Dingguo and his son, they will definitely give the son a beating.
At that time, there were faint voices coming from the distance. Chen Ping breathed a sigh of relief, and then saw Shen Wan walking quickly towards Xie Jingyu.
Chen Ping, “…”
It's over.
...alive again.
Shen Wan gave Chen Ping a surprise, turned around and ran. Xie Jingyu wanted to catch him, and Chen Ping quickly blew a few whistles.
Xie Jingyu stopped and waited to climb over the wall to leave Duke Dingguo's Mansion. Xie Jingyu said unhappily, "What did you urge me to do just now?"
Chen Ping was exhausted. "Master, you really drank too much today. Didn't you notice that there are more than one subordinate around?"
"You were discovered by Duke Dingguo's secret guards when you climbed over the wall to look for Miss Shen Er."
“…”
In the study.
Shen Ji was handling military affairs, and Shen Li was also there.
The secret guard jumped in through the window, first reported the situation, and then stopped talking.
Shen Ji said, "Anything else?"
The secret guard said, "Prince Jingbei just climbed over the wall to look for the second young lady..."
Shen Ji frowned.
Shen Li gritted his teeth.
He knew how his sister, a lady from a wealthy family, could think of asking him to climb over the wall to deliver lanterns to Princess Jiangling. Sure enough, she was led astray by Xie Jingyu.
The secret guard said, "The Prince of Jingbei broke into the Second Young Lady's room, frightening her so much that she didn't dare to stay in the room and ran out..."
Shen Ji's brows twisted into knots, "He has something to ask Wan'er?"
"...The Prince of Jingbei lost the purse that the Second Miss gave him, and asked her to embroider another one for him."
Shen Ji's face was full of black lines, "Just like that?"
The secret guard nodded, "The second young lady is dignified and self-possessed, and strictly abides by etiquette. However, the Prince of Jingbei wants the second young lady to kiss him before he will leave..."
Shen Li rolled up his sleeves and was about to hit someone, "Did your sister kiss you?"
"No, I slapped him and ran away."
Shen Ji, “…”
Shen Li, “…”
