Chapter 19 He used to be a fool
At this time, Shen Jiasui turned around and looked at Jiang Xun.
"Thank you, Master Jiang."
She bowed and saluted Jiang Xun seriously.
In his previous life, Jiang Xun really did as he said and risked his life for the truth.
She was guarding outside the Dali Temple and had seen Jiang Xun from afar several times. Each time he was in a hurry. Once, she even saw that he had a broken arm.
But in the end, except for her, the daughter who married out, the entire Shen family was executed.
She never saw Jiang Xun again.
Until death...
When his thoughts reached this point, Shen Jiasui couldn't help but glance at Jiang Xun's hem.
Before she died in Jingxi Villa, she seemed to catch a glimpse of a blush.
But she wasn't sure if it was Lu Yunzheng's blood that blurred her eyes, or if she saw something else...
At this time, Jiang Xun had already turned away and did not accept her greeting.
"No need, this is my master's instruction, it has nothing to do with me."
Still as concise as before, after leaving this sentence, he turned and left.
"Sister, Master Jiang has left."
Seeing that Shen Jiasui had not stood up for a long time, Shen Jiaheng hurriedly reminded him in a low voice.
Shen Jiasui took a deep breath, and when he straightened up, a smile appeared on his face.
"Okay, it's all settled. You, you, don't be so impulsive in the future."
As Shen Jiasui spoke, he raised his hand and tapped Shen Jiaheng's forehead.
Not only did Shen Jiaheng not avoid it, he also responded with a playful smile, "Change it, change it, I'll do whatever you say."
When Shen Jiasui saw that Shen Jiaheng was just being perfunctory, he could only shake his head helplessly.
It is normal for Brother Heng to admit his mistakes actively and refuse to change.
At this time, Shen Jiaheng finally couldn't wait to ask about the cancellation of the engagement.
Shen Jiasui did not hide anything and told everything, which made Shen Jiaheng so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"I've disliked that bastard Lu Yunzheng for a long time! I just didn't expect that Sister Gu would..."
In Shen Jiaheng's heart, his sister always comes first.
Compared to the affection that Shen Zhengsheng and his wife had for Gu Xizhi, who was like their daughter, Shen Jiaheng even always had a vague "hostility" towards Gu Xizhi.
After all, in his eyes, Gu Xizhi came to "compete for favor" with him.
Seeing that Shen Jiaheng was scolding people with great energy, Shen Jiasui thought that the injury on his nose was nothing serious and he was completely relieved.
As for the matter of rebirth, it won’t be too late to tell Brother Heng slowly when he returns home from his ten-day holiday at a quiet time.
"Okay, you and my second cousin go in. I should go back now. Mom must be worried at home."
Shen Jiasui was not worried that Cui Mingjue and his group would take revenge secretly. Just like his mother said, after seeing them today, he found that the children of the Cui family were indeed very smart.
If you continue to persist, this will not be just a small fight.
Shen Jiaheng was reluctant to leave, and he held Shen Jiasui's hand and talked for a long time. At this time, Bai Ji, who was standing by, couldn't help but be curious, and asked Bai Mu:
"Bai Mu, who was that Lord Jiang just now? He doesn't look very old, but others seem to be afraid of him."
Bai Mu immediately perked up when Bai Ji asked this question, but before he could open his mouth, Shen Jiaheng took the initiative to take over the conversation.
"Sister, that Lord Jiang just now is a role model for us young people. He is the person my second cousin and I admire the most!"
Ji Xueyi, who was standing by, nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, his delicate and handsome face full of approval.
"Cousin, you definitely don't know, speaking of Lord Jiang, he..."
————
On the other side, inside the cell.
"I heard that Jiang Xun was a fool in the past. Is it true or not?"
A group of young people sat together, some applying facial masks, some rubbing their hands. They were Cui Mingjue and his group.
At this time, Cui Mingjue was lying on his back on the couch, with a handkerchief covering half of his face, so his expression could not be seen clearly.
Someone immediately chimed in: "It's true!"
"Jiang Xun was born a fool. The Anyang Marquis's Mansion was ashamed of him and hid him very well."
"But my uncle has some friendship with the Earl of Anyang. When he visited him, he even saw Jiang Xun twice in the Earl's house. He is indeed mentally retarded and can't even speak clearly."
The people around gasped when they heard this.
"Is it true? I thought it was just a rumor? Then how come he is fine again? And... still like this..."
The person who took over earlier looked mysterious when he heard this, and lowered his voice and said:
"It seems that when Jiang Xun was ten years old, there was a banquet in the Bo's Mansion. The other children made fun of him and left him alone in the back garden."
"Maybe he was frightened. I heard he had a high fever. Even the imperial physician was called in with a sign, but they said there was no way to save him."
"But I don't know how, after two days of fever, he got better on his own!"
"And this burn burned away all his stupidity. It was as if he had gained enlightenment. Not only was he smarter than ordinary people, but he also had a photographic memory. He became outstanding all of a sudden."
"You all know what happened later. Not only was he chosen as the study companion of Prince Xianhuai, he also caught the eye of Master Lin and became his only closed disciple."
"I heard that before Prince Xianhuai passed away, he admired and was close to Jiang Xun and often brought him with him."
"Your Majesty, you love me so much that I love my dog too. Look, Jiang Xun is only a young man, but he has already been appointed Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple. What a great favor this is!"
"The Anyang Marquis' Mansion was about to decline, but unexpectedly, Jiang Xun appeared and it actually turned things around."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but exclaimed. They were about to say something else, but Cui Mingjue suddenly coughed softly, and his voice was unusually cold and stern:
"You don't even want to live anymore. Do you think you can mention His Majesty and Prince Xianhuai?"
The young men were startled when they heard this, and realized that something was wrong. They all stood up and looked around to talk about other things.
When Crown Prince Xianhuai passed away two years ago, he was only twenty-one years old, leaving behind only a little grandson who was less than three years old.
The emperor was so heartbroken to see his son die young that he cried incessantly and stopped attending court for more than half a month.
The oldest prince now is the second prince born to Concubine Shu.
And Concubine Shu...is Cui Mingjue's aunt.
"If I hear this again, you will not be allowed to stay in the Imperial College!"
Cui Mingjue pulled down his handkerchief, and when he spoke again his voice was cold and deep, totally different from his usual nonchalant appearance.
The young men nodded hurriedly, silent as a mouse.
————
Baiji covered his lips with his hand, thus suppressing the exclamation that was about to come out.
Shen Jiasui had never expected that Jiang Xun had such an extraordinary experience.
She was cautious after all, and immediately whispered, "Brother Heng, second cousin, don't mention these things to anyone else in the future."
Shen Jiaheng and Ji Xueyi naturally knew the seriousness of the matter. If it wasn't Shen Jiasui in front of them today, they wouldn't have said a word.
"Okay, go in quickly, remember what my sister said, we don't cause trouble but we're not afraid of trouble either, just study hard and don't worry."
Shen Jiasui waved at the two of them.
Shen Jiaheng and Ji Xueyi nodded obediently. Just as they were about to turn around and leave, Shen Jiaheng suddenly remembered something and stopped.
"Sister, I accidentally punched Lu Yunsheng just now. Now that we have broken off the engagement with the Lu family, will the Lu family think that I did it on purpose?"
"I'm not afraid, I'm just worried about that petty-minded Lu Yunzheng, who thinks you can't let go."
Shen Jiasui was stunned at first when he heard this, but then he realized that Lu Yunsheng was Aunt Zhou's son.
A gleam of light flashed in her eyes, and she raised her hand and patted Shen Jiaheng on the shoulder.
"Since you didn't mean it, just go and apologize later. As for the Lu family, I will take care of it myself."
