Chapter 92 Shen Jiasui's Approach
Zhao Huailang noticed Cui Mingjue's loss of composure, so he leaned over slightly and looked outside, and saw a young girl jumping out of the car.
Her black hair was tied up high with a red ribbon. The ends of her hair swung up when she touched the ground, making her figure look even more graceful.
Moreover, her eyes were bright and her movements were extremely quick and decisive, which really made her different from the average lady from a wealthy family.
"That's Miss Shen?"
Zhao Huailang spoke in a low voice, with a hint of teasing in his voice.
Cui Mingjue came back to his senses and immediately lowered the curtain, his face full of embarrassment.
Zhao Huailang didn't care, he just waved at him, "Okay, you go and pay your respects."
"The princess is returning to the capital, and as her nephew, I still need to prepare a gift for her. It's really worrying."
Upon hearing this, Cui Mingjue didn't dare to disturb Zhao Huailang anymore. After bowing politely, he lifted the curtain and walked out.
The moment he got off the carriage, Cui Mingjue let out a breath without making a sound.
At this moment, all the embarrassment, respectfulness, and caution disappeared from his face.
There are some things that his grandfather and parents did not teach him, but that did not prevent him from figuring them out on his own during his long time with his cousin.
My cousin is domineering and tough inside, and he likes to control the overall situation. Appropriately showing weakness, losing composure, or even unintentionally revealing those little thoughts can gain the trust of my cousin and help me walk safely and steadily for a long time.
After all, which superior can tolerate an impeccable subordinate?
After standing there for a while, Cui Mingjue, seemingly hesitant, took a step and walked towards Shen Jiasui and his sister.
It was not until Cui Mingjue had walked a long way that the attendant sitting on the throne spoke in a low voice:
"Your Highness, Master Cui is walking towards Miss Shen."
There was silence in the car for a moment, followed by a deep laugh, "That's really interesting."
In Prince Rong's Mansion, the eldest sister-in-law's safety depends on the help of Miss Shen.
I heard that Miss Shen was also at the Jokhang Temple that day.
And Anyang Bo Mansion......
If Miss Shen had not acted in time, the wife of the Marquis of Anyang would have been a floating corpse in the water.
Look, this Miss Shen always appears at a timely moment.
Now, Mingjue still has feelings for her.
It would be great if such a brave and resourceful woman, who has the support of General Dingguo's Mansion, could be recruited into our side.
Furthermore, he was very curious about this Miss Shen. She was obviously... not that simple.
As for Jiang Xun...
Oh, those words just now were just to provoke Ming Jue. A person like Jiang Xun, who is already at the center of the storm, probably wouldn't even dare to be moved.
After all, so many people were waiting to exploit his weakness and bring disaster to this glorious Shaoqing of the Dali Temple.
Zhao Huailang's mind had just come to this point when he suddenly heard the attendant outside the car whisper, "Your Highness, Jiang Xun has come out of the Imperial College."
Zhao Huailang raised his eyes suddenly when he heard this, and then said calmly: "Go back home."
.......
The other side.
Shen Jiasui saw Shen Jiaheng from afar and jumped off the carriage.
Shen Jiaheng was very happy, "Sister, why are you here?"
As he was walking quickly towards her, a bundle was thrown into his arms.
When Shen Jiaheng saw that Shen Jiasui had brought him something, he was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Sister, what good things did you bring me?"
As he was talking, he had already reached out to open the bundle, and what he saw was a colorful and colourful... knee-length coat?
Shen Jiaheng didn't believe it and reached in again.
“.......”
"Sister, even if it's ten cows, you don't need that much, right?"
Shen Jiasui didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He raised his hand, patted Shen Jiaheng on the shoulder, and said with a smile:
"Not much, not much. Remember to give half to cousin Ji."
When Shen Jiaheng heard this, his disgust instantly disappeared and he quickly hugged the bag in his arms tightly.
That won’t work!
What my sister gave him, he wants to enjoy it all by himself!
Shen Jiasui raised the corner of his mouth when he saw this. He was about to talk to Shen Jiaheng about the follow-up of the Lu Mansion incident, but he caught a glimpse of Cui Mingjue getting off the carriage and stopped talking immediately.
What she didn't expect was that after standing there for a while, Cui Mingjue actually walked straight towards them.
Shen Jiaheng noticed his sister's reaction, turned his head and took a look. The moment he saw Cui Mingjue, the smile on his face instantly disappeared.
He took a step forward and calmly stood in front of Shen Jiasui.
Cui Mingjue walked closer and saw that Shen Jiaheng was full of hostility towards him. He finally realized what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot.
He took a step back and bowed, very politely, "Miss Shen, it's been a long time since we last met. Please allow me to apologize again for my impoliteness last time."
Shen Jiaheng didn't expect Cui Mingjue to come to apologize. He raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Instead, Shen Jiasui patted Shen Jiaheng on the shoulder, walked out from behind him, and politely returned a salute to Cui Mingjue.
"Mr. Cui, you are too kind. Last time at Prince Rong's mansion, I have to thank you for showing up and saving me."
Although she was confused at the time, she still remembered that it was Cui Mingjue who raised his hand to support her.
This reminded Shen Jiaheng of the day when he asked Cui Mingjue about his sister, and Cui Mingjue told him everything he knew without making any fuss.
He was a man who could distinguish right from wrong, so he immediately softened his expression and bowed to Cui Mingjue.
When Jiang Xun came out of the Imperial College, he saw the three of them being polite to each other.
Shen Jiasui and Shen Jiaheng were bowing their heads slightly as they saluted, and Cui Mingjue's gaze fell directly on Shen Jiasui.
But when Shen Jiasui stood up, Cui Mingjue hurriedly looked away, with a hint of embarrassment and caution on his face.
Jiang Xun stopped suddenly.
Because he often interrogated prisoners, over time, he gradually became able to see the subtle changes in expressions on other people's faces and to guess some of the deeper meaning from them.
If he was not mistaken, the young master of the Cui family was... pleased with Miss Chen.
As soon as this thought came to my mind, an unfamiliar sour feeling emerged from my heart like a faint mist.
Jiang Xun had never felt this way before, and the fingers hanging by his sides curled slightly unconsciously.
Who knew that at this time——
"Master Jiang."
Jiang Xun looked up when he heard the voice, and saw that Shen Jiasui had noticed him at some point. His eyes were full of smiles, and he was nodding at him from a distance.
Shen Jiasui could hardly hide the curiosity in his eyes.
Lord Jiang took off his official uniform today and carried a bookcase on his back. He had shed all his official airs and looked more like... a handsome scholar.
"Master Jiang, someone who said you are from 'Tian Shang Yue' is here."
This sentence naturally flashed through Jiang Xun's mind, and a continuous and dense warm current instantly washed away the sourness just now.
His heart skipped a beat, and his steps, which were originally supposed to be towards the carriage, unconsciously shifted towards Shen Jiasui's direction.
"Ms. Shen."
But he restrained himself and finally did not take a step forward. He just bowed to her from a distance.
Shen Jiaheng originally thought that Jiang Xun was chasing him, and his eyes lit up instantly, but when he saw Jiang Xun's distant attitude, the light flashed for a moment and then went out.
Well, now he understood his mother's feelings. Some things really cannot be forced.
On the other hand, Cui Mingjue, who was standing aside, looked up at Jiang Xun with deep meaning in his eyes.
If Jiang Xun wants to be a loyal minister, he should understand that anyone who has anything to do with him may be attacked and framed, let alone...his sweetheart.
If he was rational enough, he should have stayed alone to the end, and as he once said, never marry.
Cui Mingjue was deep in thought, but what he didn't expect was that Shen Jiasui suddenly took a step forward and walked towards Jiang Xun.
Jiang Xun stood where he was, knowing that Shen Jiasui was walking towards him, but he couldn't take a step to leave.
Even he could not deny that a secret joy was flowing in his heart.
"Master Jiang, I heard from my father that General Lu was impeached by the censor some time ago."
Shen Jiasui stood three steps away from Jiang Xun, slightly parted her red lips, and deliberately lowered her voice.
"I know that Lord Jiang keeps his word. This matter really helped me a lot."
Shen Jiasui tilted his head and smiled, feeling very grateful.
If General Lu had not been suddenly impeached, Madam Lu would not have been forced into such a state, and Lu Yunzheng would not have lost his last source of support so quickly.
That day at the gate of Anyang Marquis' Mansion, she originally thought that Jiang Xun was just talking, but she didn't expect him to act so quickly and get things done the next day.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Lord Jiang really helped her time and time again.
Jiang Xun slightly turned his body and listened to Shen Jiasui's words with a calm expression. Anyone who saw him would feel that he was as calm as still water.
But at this moment, Jiang Xun was thinking:
Miss Shen's eyes curved when she smiled, like the crescent moon in the sky.
