Chapter 1056 Involuntarily
Chen Yong, Xiyue and their group hurried on and finally arrived in Chenzhou half a month later.
At this time, everyone removed their disguises and returned to their true appearance, except Xiyue.
Xiyue would habitually hide her true appearance when outside. When Chen Yong suddenly saw her with a new face, he was still not used to it. After a moment of hesitation, he called out uncertainly: "Miss Xiyue"
Xiyue curled the corners of her lips slightly, "Why, you don't recognize me anymore?"
She just concealed her bright facial features, so she shouldn't be unrecognizable.
Shen Yong shook his head embarrassedly, “Not really, I’m just a little surprised.”
He knew that Xiyue's disguise skills were very powerful, but he didn't expect that she could really change her face at will.
Xiyue nodded and said, "Thank you for your care during this period of time, Fourth Young Master. I will go to find the master to report. Please do as you please."
After saying that, she turned and left.
Shen Yong's eyes couldn't help but look at her back, and his mind quickly flashed through the time they had spent together during this period.
Suddenly, someone bumped into Shen Yong's shoulder and said, "Hey, what are you looking at? Isn't that Xiyue?"
"You knew it was her just by looking at her back." Shen Yong turned his head and looked at Ling Yun with a frown, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Ling Yun said as a matter of course: "What's so difficult about this? We grew up together, went on missions together, and experienced life and death together. If I don't even recognize her back, then I have lived in vain."
Shen Yong suddenly fell silent.
Yes, they grew up together and were childhood sweethearts, so it was normal for them to be familiar with each other's words and deeds.
"Oh, by the way," Ling Yun suddenly said, "This girl seems to be interested in the master. I have to talk to her. The Sixth Miss is such a good person. She must not do anything stupid. I'm leaving now!"
The last sentence was said to Shen Yong, and Shen Yong froze in place when he heard it.
So she likes His Royal Highness the Crown Prince
No! The one His Highness likes is Sixth Sister!
Shen Yong reacted suddenly, without having time to think about where the secret joy in his heart came from, and chased in the direction of Ling Yun, "Wait for me!"
Here, Shen Qingqian learned the news that Shen Yong and the others had returned, so she went to Shengze's large study in advance and was looking through the rare books in the study.
"How come this book "A Dream of Red Mansions" is also a banned book? There is clearly nothing written in it," Shen Qingqian asked in great confusion.
Sheng Ze lowered his head to handle official business while taking the time to reply, "This is a banned book from the previous dynasty. It mentioned some things related to treason, so it was banned. This dynasty didn't specifically ban the book from being published, but as you said, the book has no substantial content, so naturally no one printed it to sell."
His answers were very detailed and comprehensive, and it was hard for Shen Qingqian not to understand.
However, this book appeared in the study used by King Zhao. It seems that King Zhao must have wanted to rebel against the court long ago.
Shen Qingqian flipped through the book for a while, and then she was too bored, so she came to Sheng Ze and asked, "When will my fourth brother and the others arrive?"
"The letter says today, but I can't guarantee the exact time." Sheng Ze raised his eyes and looked at her with a faint smile.
With her by my side, I was able to handle official business much faster today.
They have taken over Chenzhou completely in recent days, but there are still many things waiting for him to deal with.
And soon we will have to send troops to several other states, not to mention the workload.
Shen Qingqian was just about to say that she would go back to help Zheng Shicheng deal with something before coming back, when she heard someone outside the door announce, "Your Highness, Miss Xiyue is back."
