Chapter 51 Chapter 51 "Be careful not to overdo it."...
==Chapter 51==
Xie Zhujing felt that the young lady was a bit clingy today, especially because her eyes were too focused on him.
The feeling is very subtle.
It’s like getting something you’ve always wanted, but it was stolen by luck.
Xie Zhujing didn't know what had happened to cause the young lady's change, but as a beneficiary, Xie Zhujing was happy to see it happen.
He has always been a person who cares more about the results than the process.
There weren't many oranges on the plate, only eight at most, but Feng Wenyu stared at it for a long time. There was once someone who looked at her like that. No matter what good things he got, the first person he thought of was always her.
Xie Zhujing tried to hold her hand, but in the end, he only managed to grab her wrist and led her to the pavilion.
The orange was peeled, and the white silk was removed bit by bit. Finally, it was brought to her. Feng Wenyu took it and swallowed it bit by bit. The sweet and sour taste rose in her mouth. This was specially presented to the emperor, so the sweetness naturally outweighed the sourness. She raised her head to look at him again.
A bit too obedient.
Xie Zhujing subconsciously raised his hand to touch her head. Before she could wonder, he calmly withdrew his hand and asked her, "Do you want to eat more?"
Feng Wenyu wanted to nod, but her throat was a little hoarse and the oranges irritated her throat a little, so she couldn't help but pause.
Seeing this, Xie Zhujing put away the plates and pushed them all to Feng Wenyu:
"It's okay to eat it tomorrow."
It rained heavily today, and it kept falling for a long time. Some people couldn't help but stare at the scene in a daze.
It was at this time that Yan Yunhe came to the Minister's Mansion.
As soon as he heard the news about Shen Jingchen, he guessed that Feng Wenyu must be upset, and rushed over without stopping, but he didn't expect to encounter such an unpleasant scene.
Someone got there before him.
Yan Yunhe's face darkened for a moment, and then he squeezed into the pavilion without hesitation:
"There's a huge commotion outside, and you're just sitting here taking a break."
He simply ignored Xie Zhujing, pretending he didn't exist, and only talked to Feng Wenyu. Seeing the tea on the stone table, he poured himself a cup without any hesitation and drank it all in one gulp.
The next moment, he sat on the other side of Feng Wenyu.
There are four positions in total, and only the one farthest from Feng Wenyu is vacant.
After Yan Yunhe sat down, he immediately saw the plate of oranges and could tell who brought them. He was not polite at all, and seemed to be doing it on purpose. He directly picked up an orange, peeled it in a few seconds, and threw it into his mouth, saying:
"Hiss, it feels a bit sour."
Facing the uninvited guest, Xie Zhujing's smile faded a little. He glanced at Yan Yunhe indifferently, then looked at the orange peel on the stone table, and his eyes became even colder.
"I didn't give it to you to eat in the first place. A forced melon won't be sweet."
He seemed to be talking about oranges, but also seemed to be hinting at something else.
The corners of Yan Yunhe's lips smoothed out slightly, barely perceptible.
Feng Wenyu's attention was fixed on his previous sentence: "Making a big fuss?"
Yan Yunhe was not surprised that she didn't know. Regarding the Shen family, everyone had tacitly kept it a secret from her. However, Yan Yunhe always believed that it was better to open up than to block. He shook the tassel on the jade pendant and said two words briefly:
"Shen family."
Feng Wenyu's face changed slightly, and she remembered that she was interrupted by Xie Zhujing's arrival.
Xie Zhujing also narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking of the dispute in the court today, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes. What is the relationship between Feng Wenyu and the Shen family?
Feng Wenyu was about to make a move when she placed a hand on her shoulder. Yan Yunhe smiled, but her voice was harsh:
"I'm already here, do you think I'll let you go to the Jiaofangsi?"
He did not hide anything, and the three words "Jiaofangsi" appeared in his mouth casually. After he finished speaking, he glanced at Xie Zhujing inconspicuously, and had his own calculations in his heart.
He really wanted to exclude Xie Zhujing and squeeze him out without leaving any trace.
People in the world cannot accept women frequently going in and out of places like the Jiaofangsi.
It would be best if Xie Zhujing was like Li Fengyu, unable to accept it and giving up early.
Feng Wenyu was held down tightly. She raised her head and looked at Yan Yunhe, feeling a little dazed again.
In the dream, after she and Gu Yushi got married, Yan Yunhe had been staying at the border. In the following twelve years, she only saw Yan Yunhe three times.
She was not stupid. Those twelve years were enough for her to figure out Yan Yunhe's feelings for her.
Feng Wenyu quickly lowered her head, suppressing the bitterness in her eyes. She said:
"You can stop me for one day, but can you stop me forever?"
Yan Yunhe was so angry at this ungrateful little bastard that he almost laughed. He rubbed her head fiercely and said, "I can't stop you, but can't I cure him?"
He doesn't care about any favors or not. If Shen Jingchen dares to damage Feng Wenyu's reputation, he will make Shen Jingchen die suddenly in the Jiaofang Division tomorrow.
Yan Yunhe thought coldly that people who should have died long ago should not come out alive to cause trouble.
Feng Wenyu's heart sank. She knew Yan Yunhe was not joking. The bitterness in her heart faded away. She frowned and raised her voice:
"Yan Yunhe!"
Yan Yunhe immediately withdrew his hand and begged for mercy: "Okay, okay, if you don't go find him, I will never touch him."
It would be fine if it was just Gu Yushi, the two of them were engaged at that time. Who the hell was Shen Jingchen, and was he worthy of estrangement between him and Feng Wenyu?
Shen Jingchen had evil intentions towards Ayu from the very beginning. If it weren't for that time when he saved her, why would Shen Jingchen let Ayu see him?
In the matter of Zheng Xun, the Feng family and the Qiao family made a lot of arrangements to completely conceal the truth that Shen Jingchen accidentally killed someone.
If he were to tell it, this matter had been a plot by Prince Wende against the Shen family from the very beginning. Otherwise, how could Prince Wende's men have arrived so promptly? Feng Wenyu felt guilty towards Shen Jingchen for this matter, but the truth was still unclear as to who was implicating whom!
Yan Yunhe never hesitates to assume the worst of others.
What's more, the timing of Shen Jingchen's appearance was too coincidental. As soon as Gao Dang fell, Shen Jingchen appeared. Yan Yunhe sneered in his heart, thinking that everyone else was a fool!
If there was anyone who least wanted Prince Wende's faction to see its power revive, it would definitely be the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince.
But now, the Gao Party has fallen, the Second Prince's power has been greatly damaged, and the Fourth Prince has been hit hard by the incident in the border town and is overwhelmed. No one on both sides is free to take care of Shen Jingchen.
Prince Wende was dead, but he left behind a son.
Precisely because he died, Emperor Wenyuan's hatred for him faded away, and he only remembered his past kindness. Therefore, he treated his descendants with kindness.
Feng Wenyu didn't know what he was thinking, but she was not satisfied with his answer, and her brows furrowed slightly.
Yan Yunhe sighed: "Don't frown, someone else will take care of Shen Jingchen's affairs, so don't interfere."
Xie Zhujing saw the whole scene, but he didn't know the inside story and chose not to get involved.
But the person who always confronted Yan Yunhe did not speak out against Yan Yunhe at this time, which showed that he tacitly agreed with Yan Yunhe's statement. Regardless of whether the two had a history or not, the current situation was not suitable for Feng Wenyu to come forward and contact Shen Jingchen.
Feng Wenyu was already a little numb and slightly confused after being stopped.
The main reason is that the difference between reality and dreams is too great. In the dream, she had never encountered so much resistance when she came into contact with Shen Jingchen.
Feng Wenyu vaguely realized that something was wrong, as if the people she met in the dream had no idea that she had any contact with Shen Jingchen.
But how is that possible?
Before Feng Wenyu could think about it, a servant came running over:
"Miss, Miss Qiao is here and she wants to see you."
Feng Wenyu's thoughts were interrupted. Qiao Anyu came to find her, which surprised her a little, but also seemed to be expected.
Yan Yunhe was impatient: "Tell her, no!"
Coming to Feng Wenyu at this time, one can easily guess Qiao Anyu's purpose.
Feng Wenyu didn't expect him to act on his own initiative, so he stopped the messenger and said, "Take him to the living room."
Feng Wenyu stood up and glanced at Xie Zhujing apologetically. Xie Zhujing nodded to indicate that it was all right. "Young lady, you have something to do first. I'll come back another day."
Feng Wenyu breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Yan Yunhe with a warning:
"You are not allowed to follow!"
Yan Yunhe felt a breath stuck in his chest, almost suffocating him to death.
After the people left, he looked at Xie Zhujing sarcastically: "If you can't stop people, what's the use of you?"
A cold look appeared on Xie Zhujing's lips:
"Didn't Prince Yan stop it?"
Yan Yunhe was blocked and he was too lazy to argue. After a moment, a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes.
Xie Zhujing didn't look at Yan Yunhe again, but turned to look at Feng Wenyu's departing back. After a long moment, he said calmly:
"Be careful not to overdo it."
He would not stop Yan Yunhe from attacking Shen Jingchen, as long as Yan Yunhe failed to kill Shen Jingchen and ended up making the young lady feel more guilty towards Shen Jingchen.
Yan Yunhe understood the implication of his words and sneered, "You are so hypocritical."
They are all cruel and ruthless people. This blue shirt of his is stained with the blood of many people, but he wants to pretend to be pure in front of Ayu.
Reception room.
Qiao Anyu sat upright in the guest seat, holding a cup in her hand, but she looked a little dazed.
When Feng Wenyu stepped in and saw her like this, he couldn't help but be speechless.
The same thing happened to Qiao Anyu in the dream. She was found the day before she left the capital with her husband's family.
The usually arrogant man bowed his head to her:
"We both feel guilty about what happened back then. I'm leaving Beijing now. We'll be so far away from home that I won't be able to protect him anymore."
"Now that Lord Gu is in a high position, you can definitely protect him if you want."
She grabbed her hand in a panic: "Feng Wenyu, help him!"
"Just think of it as me begging you."
In her dream, she was caught off guard by Qiao Anyu. Only then did she realize that Shen Jingchen was still alive. Before she could be shocked, she was stunned by Qiao Anyu's request. The former noble young man had fallen to the point where he was humiliated at will. Feng Wenyu was speechless for a rare moment, and there was no way she could refuse Qiao Anyu.
Whether in dreams or in reality, Qiao Anyu would only look for her for one purpose.
As expected, as soon as she sat down, Qiao Anyu couldn't help but speak:
"You went there yesterday, too."
Feng Wenyu did not deny it.
Qiao Anyu's hands were shaking as she held the cup. She had been up all night, her eyes red. Today, she finally managed to break free from the guards and come to find Feng Wenyu. She was desperate and asked in a trembling voice, "No one dared to help him, so are you going to stand by and watch?"
The Qiao family will never allow her to have anything to do with Shen Jingchen again. Her only hope now is Feng Wenyu.
Looking at Qiao Anyu's appearance, Feng Wenyu felt uncomfortable:
"What do you want me to do?"
Qiao Anyu was stunned by the question.
What should Feng Wenyu do? Frequently send people to the Jiaofangsi to take care of Shen Jingchen? What about Feng Wenyu's reputation?
Qiao Anyu suddenly closed her eyes and tears fell down in embarrassment. She didn't know what to do.
