Chapter 565 Meeting
Xu Jiao took two deep breaths.
Impossible!
Her husband is not that kind of person.
She has known her husband for thirteen years and has been married to him for ten years. She knows her husband's character best and knows that he will never abandon his wife for power.
Xu Jiao was stunned for a long time before she found her voice.
"Madam, that is indeed Shen Qingliu, my husband." Xu Jiao's voice trembled. "Who is the woman with my husband?"
Tang Li looked at Xu Jiao with a look of surprise and pity.
Young Master Liu Yue is actually Shen Qingliu...
The reason why Shen Qingliu didn't return home was because he became the eldest princess's male favorite?
"The woman just now is the eldest princess, the elder sister of the current emperor." Tang Li said.
"How could this happen? How could this happen?" Xu Jiao found it hard to accept. "No, I have to go find my husband and ask him clearly."
Xu Jiao was very excited and wanted to go downstairs, but was stopped by the servants.
"Mrs. Shen, if you rashly appear in front of Shen Qingliu like this, you will not only harm yourself, but also Shen Qingliu." Tang Li said.
Shen Qingliu is now the eldest princess's male favorite. When his wife appears, how will the eldest princess treat her?
If Shen Qingliu still has true feelings for Xu Jiao, and something happens to Xu Jiao, and Shen Qingliu offends the princess, what will be the outcome?
Xu Jiao's mind was in a mess, but her steps stopped.
She leaned against the wall, slowly slid down, sat on the ground, buried her head in her knees, and curled up into a ball.
After a while, she raised her head and her expression became calm.
"Madam, can you tell me what the relationship between my husband and the eldest princess is?" Her voice was filled with tears.
Tangli walked up to her and stretched out his hand towards her: "Would you please come back with me first?"
Xu Jiao put her hand on Tang Li's hand, stood up, and followed Tang Li away.
They returned to the Marquis' Mansion.
Tang Li told Xu Jiao that Shen Qingliu was now Young Master Liuyue and the eldest princess's male favorite.
Xu Jiao was stunned, her heart aching.
how so?
"My husband is not such a person. He has lofty ambitions. He wants to enter the officialdom and achieve fame and honor. He definitely does not want to be trapped in the backyard and be...a male concubine." She found it difficult to say the last two words.
"My husband must have been forced. The eldest princess forced him!"
Xu Jiao's eyes were red.
Her husband was such a proud man, but now he has become a bird in a cage. No one knows how he has survived these years.
Xu Jiao felt extremely heartbroken.
"Madam, I want to see my husband..." Xu Jiao said, "Can you... help me?"
It was difficult for her to speak.
She and Mrs. Wu were just casual acquaintances. She saved herself, and now she had to ask her for such a big favor.
"Mrs. Shen, if you meet Shen Qingliu, it might bring you fatal disaster. Do you still want to meet him?" Tang Li looked at her and asked seriously.
Xu Jiao nodded: "Yes!"
For the past three years, she has been living in a daze, dreaming of meeting her husband.
She came all the way to the capital for this very reason.
As long as she can see her husband, she is not afraid even if her life is taken away!
Tang Li thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, I'll help you arrange it, but you still have to be careful. If you can survive, don't die."
Xu Jiao's eyes turned red, and she knelt down in front of Tang Li with a plop.
"Madam, your great kindness, Xu Jiao will never forget it!"
Xu Jiao kowtowed to Tang Li before getting up.
"I have to find a safer way to let you see Shen Qingliu, so you have to wait for a while, don't be anxious." Tang Li said.
Xu Jiao nodded vigorously.
In the next few days, Tang Li asked his servants to find out about the situation of Young Master Liu Yue.
Young Master Liu Yue would go to the Little Red Mansion from time to time to read books and paint. The servants there were all the eldest princess's people. The only people Young Master Liu Yue would interact with from the outside world were the people who sent him books from the bookstore...
One day, Young Master Liu Yue came to the Little Red Building in a carriage.
He went upstairs, dismissed all the servants, and stayed alone in the room.
He stood in front of the window, his face gloomy and his figure looked particularly lonely.
He stood for a while, then returned to the table, sat down, picked up a pen, and began to write on the paper.
'In the small window, she was dressing, we looked at each other without words, only tears streaming down our faces...'
His handwriting is beautiful and delicate, and each word seems to contain deep emotions.
"Jiaojiao, I dreamed of you again last night." He murmured softly, "I dreamed that we met, but we looked at each other in silence, tears streaming down our faces..."
In these three years, he thought about her every day.
Thinking of his Jiaojiao...
I don’t know if his Jiaojiao eats and sleeps well.
I don't know if she is okay.
I don’t know if she is disappointed in herself... or if she has forgotten.
Just forget about him and pretend he's dead.
Young Master Liu Yue lowered his head, and a tear fell onto the paper, blurring the words.
He put down the pen, was stunned for a moment, and became indifferent again.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Sir, people from Changfeng Bookstore have delivered the books," said the servant.
"Pay them the money." Young Master Liu Yue said coldly.
"The people at the bookstore said there's something wrong with one of the books and they want to tell you in person," said the servant.
Young Master Liu Yue just stood up, lit a fire on the words he had written, burned them all until they turned to ashes, and then left the room.
Young Master Liu Yue walked out of the room and met someone from Changfeng Bookstore in another room.
"Which book has the problem?" Young Master Liu Yue asked, looking at the stack of books in front of him.
The person who delivered the books was different from usual ones. He was shorter. After he came in, he kept his head down and didn't speak.
After Young Master Liu Yue asked the question, the man raised his head and looked at him.
Young Master Liu Yue looked at 'his' face, his pupils shrank suddenly, and his expression suddenly changed.
It was with his great endurance that he suppressed the urge to rush forward and hug the man in his arms.
His body was tense and trembling slightly.
Young Master Liu Yue took a deep breath and looked at the man.
"There are some problems with the books your bookstore delivered a few days ago. Come with me." said Young Master Liu Yue.
He stood up and walked out of the room, followed by someone.
The two entered the room where Young Master Liu Yue had just been.
Young Master Liu Yue did not allow servants to enter this room. After the man came in, Young Master Liu Yue closed the door.
The moment the door closed, the man raised his head and stared at Young Master Liu Yue.
This person is Xu Jiao in disguise!
Young Master Liu Yue and Xu Jiao looked at each other, tears falling uncontrollably.
Xu Jiao shed silent tears, and those tears were like water, which could not be stopped.
She looked at him, as if she wanted to cry out all the grievances, longings, fears and worries she had experienced in the past few years!
Young Master Liu Yue walked up to Xu Jiao, sighed softly, and wiped the tears from her eyes with his sleeves.
That indifferent and cold face was now filled with tenderness. He sighed softly, his voice gentle.
"Jiaojiao, don't cry."
