Su Qingyu did not indulge Shen Zhao at all, and every word she said humiliated Shen Zhao.
But her harsh words sounded more like a cover-up to Shen Zhao.
Chen Zhao stared at Su Qingyu, as if trying to see through her inner thoughts.
"Then why are you playing Guangling San? I remember you didn't know much about music before. Did you learn Guangling San just for me?"
"The entire Shen family knows that my favorite piece of music is Guangling San. And you only know how to play this one piece. Do you dare to say it's not for me?"
Su Qingyu was stunned for a moment. In her previous life, she played the piano indeed because of Chen Zhao.
At that time, Shen Zhao kept saying that he was impotent, and she was anxious and angry but helpless. She saw the music score of "Guangling San" in his study and started practicing.
Initially, she wanted to relieve her depression, but later she found that the melody of Guangling San was very suitable for soothing her mood. She played this piece for more than two years.
But she really didn't know that Shen Zhao liked "Guangling San".
Su Qingyu looked at Chen Zhao with a cold brow, "You think too much. The song I play has nothing to do with you. I don't know what you like."
Chen Zhao was about to say something else, but was interrupted by Su Qingyu's cold voice, "There is only the Third Master in my heart. If the Young Master says something like this again in the future, don't blame me for being rude."
After saying that, she took Shen Yue and left.
The two walked to the back hall, and when they saw that Shen Zhao had not caught up, they slowed down their pace.
Shen Yue jokingly asked, "Sister Su said that my third uncle is the only one in her heart. Is that true?"
If Uncle San heard this, he would probably be overjoyed.
Su Qingyu's face flushed slightly. That sentence was meant to make Shen Zhao give up. But at this moment, it was difficult to explain to Shen Yue.
Shen Yue sighed again and said, "What a coincidence, you just happened to play Guangling San."
She didn't say anything, but she thought in her heart, no wonder her brother misunderstood, it was really too coincidental.
Su Qingyu's heart skipped a beat. She suddenly remembered that when she first started to sing, Shen Zhixiu's expression seemed to have changed.
Did Shen Zhixiu also think that she played "Guangling San" because she hadn't let go of Shen Zhao?
Su Qingyu said, "Yue'er, do you think your Third Uncle has misunderstood as well?"
"Let's go find him. I need to explain myself to him."
Although her marriage to Shen Zhixiu was the result of weighing the pros and cons between the two sides, no man would want his unmarried wife to be thinking about someone else.
I can't let Shen Zhixiu misunderstand me before we even get married. How will I live after we get married?
After hearing what Su Qingyu said, Shen Yue agreed and said, "Sister Su is right. Let's go find Third Uncle."
The two began to look for Shen Zhixiu. They asked several people, but no one said they had seen him. Shen Yue guessed that someone had probably dragged him to a wing room to talk.
At this point, Shen Yue complained again, "Ever since Third Uncle was promoted to Deputy Minister of the Cabinet, our family has been busy these days."
"I don't even go to my grandmother's house very often. She has guests every day."
Su Qingyu wanted to say, "There's nothing we can do about it." But before she could finish her words, she stood there, looking at the side rooms in the back hall not far away. The two people who had just entered seemed to be Li Chaoyun and Shen Ying.
What were they doing together? And judging by the way they came in, they looked sneaky.
Thinking of Li Chaoyun's plan against her in the hall today, Su Qingyu's heart moved.
Pulling Shen Yue, he walked towards the back of the room.
The master and servants took advantage of the situation and went around to the back of the wing room in the rear hall, and found the back window of the room that Li Chaoyun and Shen Ying entered.
Su Qingyu signaled to everyone to keep quiet. She put her ear close to the window and could vaguely hear voices from inside.
Li Chaoyun: "This is the Crown Prince's token. Give it to the Third Master and tell him to come to the west wing of the rear hall."
Chen Ying: "Princess, does this count as falsely conveying the Crown Prince's order? What if we get caught?"
Li Chaoyun: "What are you afraid of? Once the Third Master and I are together, no one will care about this matter anymore."
"Don't worry, I will be the third wife of the Shen family by then. If you have any problems in the future, I will help you."
After a while, Shen Ying said, "Then I'll listen to the princess. I'll go find my third uncle right away."
Then, there was the sound of the door opening.
Su Qingyu stood up and left the back hall with Shen Yue.
Shen Yue didn't hear a word, so she could only ask Su Qingyu, "What did you hear?"
Su Qingyu said, "She wants to plot against your Third Uncle. We must find him first."
Inwardly, he cursed Li Chaoyun for being unscrupulous, even daring to use the prince's token. If Li Chaoyun succeeded today, things would be troublesome in the future. Given Li Chaoyun's status, Shen Zhixiu had to marry her even if he didn't want to.
Su Qingyu took two deep breaths to calm herself down. As long as Shen Zhixiu was found, no matter how powerful Li Chaoyun was, it would be useless.
She and Shen Yue asked around and found out that Shen Zhixiu, Chen Ge Lao and several ministers from the six ministries were talking under the pavilion on the other side of the waterside pavilion.
Even if she was Shen Zhixiu's future wife, he couldn't disturb her at this time.
Su Qingyu was thinking of a countermeasure in her mind. The waterside pavilion was connected in all directions, and she had no place to block people even if she wanted to.
Shen Yue was also a little anxious, but she had no idea what to do. She asked Su Qingyu in a low voice, "Sister Su, what should we do?"
Su Qingyu suddenly saw Li Yunzhou standing not far away, and her eyes lit up.
With Li Yunzhou's identity, it should be relatively easy for him to approach Shen Zhixiu. Moreover, he is a man and does not attract attention.
Add to that the private relationship between Li Yunzhou and Shen Zhixiu, and his resentment towards Princess Yongjia and Li Chaoyun. Thinking about it this way, Li Yunzhou is truly the best candidate.
Su Qingyu smiled and walked towards Li Yunzhou with Shen Yue.
"Master Li, I need your help with something." Su Qingyu looked up at him. Although she was asking for help, it seemed as if it was a matter of course.
Li Yunzhou appears calm and modest on the outside, but those who know him know that he has a cold personality and is particularly reluctant to meddle in other people's affairs.
But looking at Su Qingyu's eyes waiting for his response, the words of rejection were on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't say them.
He even asked, "What's the matter?"
Seeing that he didn't refuse, Su Qingyu moved closer and said, "Go to the waterside pavilion and tell the Third Master that if the Crown Prince invites him to the side rooms in the back hall, he must not go. That was a trap set by Princess Chaoyun to trick him."
Li Yunzhou suddenly looked at Su Qingyu with an inexplicable expression and asked, "Li Chaoyun is my sister. Do you think it's appropriate for me to pass on a message?"
