Chapter 549 The Matchmaker Arrives
"Dad, I understand." After a while, Zhang Dong nodded vigorously.
The moment he looked up, he saw that his father had a lot more silver hair on his temples.
His father is old, and it will be his turn to support the family from now on.
After dinner that day, Shen Qingqian found an opportunity to call Sheng Ze away.
Now that Shan Mancheng lives in Cheng's house, if they want to say something in secret, they have to say it outside.
But this time Shen Qingqian did not take Sheng Ze to the forest, but walked all the way to the small valley.
"The last time the granary burned down, it might have been related to Zhang Dong." Shen Qingqian found a stone to sit on by the stream running through the valley and went straight to the point.
The night was beautiful tonight, and the sound of the gurgling water seemed to be playing a moonlight serenade. Sheng Ze thought Shen Qingqian had called him out for a walk and moon-viewing, but the moment she opened her mouth, the romantic thoughts that had just arisen in his mind were shattered.
"Zhang Dong, where did you get this information?" Sheng Ze said with a gloomy expression.
Zhang Zhiyao is still in the probation period, but all the information he provided was correct, and it also allowed them to remove two spies that Sheng Zhan had planted in the Hubei North Army.
If the granary burning last time was really related to Zhang Dong, then what Zhang Zhiyao said and did had to be re-evaluated.
Shen Qingqian told him about the encounter with Zhang Zhiyao and his son on the way to the planting base that morning, and then said, "This matter is a bit strange, you should investigate it carefully."
She had thought about it carefully during the day. If it was really the wizards of the Jiayu clan who entered the city, they would not let the Zhang father and son go.
But the reality is, if the Zhang family is spared, there is only one possibility - they have bigger plans.
Sheng Ze soon thought of this, and various thoughts flashed through his mind, and finally Shan Mancheng's face appeared in his mind.
Very good, his cousin is indeed not a simple person.
However, things were still uncertain, and Sheng Ze did not make a hasty decision. He looked at the sky, then looked at Shen Qingqian who was washing her hands in the stream, and his eyes softened.
"I will take care of this matter, you don't have to worry about it." Sheng Ze also squatted down, picked up a dead branch from the ground, and knocked on the water aimlessly.
Shen Qingqian raised her eyes and looked at him, "I didn't take it to heart in the first place."
If she didn't happen to know Sheng Ze's identity, she might not have told anyone else about it after knowing it.
After all, ordinary people would be powerless to do anything if they knew about this kind of thing, and there was no way to tell the people who should know. Moreover, Zhang Zhiyao's identity was enough to scare away a lot of people, so who would dare to say anything nonsense?
"That's good," Sheng Ze curled his lips, "I just hope you can live more easily."
If he remembered correctly, Shen Qingqian in the dream should be 26 years old, six years older than him.
But here, he was six years older than her.
Sheng Ze suddenly thought that in Shen Qingqian's world, "sister-brother love" seemed to be very popular. If he and she were together in the future, what would they call it?
"What are you laughing at?" Shen Qingqian raised her hand and waved in front of Sheng Ze. "Now that we have finished our business, we should go back."
Sheng Ze came back to his senses, quickly put away the smile that had just appeared unconsciously, cleared his throat and said, "Let's go."
After he finished speaking, he stood up first and strode out of the valley.
Shen Qingqian was very close to him just now because she wanted to call him. The moment he stood up, she seemed to see the tip of his ears turn red.
What on earth was this person thinking?
Of course she didn't get an answer, but the next morning, when everyone had almost finished breakfast, a matchmaker came to Huanxiyuan.
"Who are you going to be a matchmaker for?"
"Oh, of course it's our vanguard general, Master Cheng Sancheng!"
