Chapter 78: The Little Master of Nonsense
At the same time, Yuwen Yan and Qi Xiu were here.
"What did she ask you?" Yu Wenyan asked knowingly.
"My lord, Miss Shu asked me that she couldn't remember your name and asked me to tell her again!" Qi Xiu answered truthfully.
As a subordinate, regardless of whether Yuwen Yan heard it or not, he would answer truthfully and would not hide anything.
"You forgot my name!" Yuwen Yan murmured in a low voice, "Keep a closer eye on her. Don't let anything go wrong at this time!" For some reason, Yuwen Yan always had a feeling that Shu Wan was too extraordinary. Her eyes were clearly clear and calm, but he inexplicably felt that Shu Wan was too concerned and her purpose was too obvious.
But he could find no evidence to support his feeling.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Qi Xiu accepted the order.
"The envoys from Beishuo will enter Jinzhou the day after tomorrow. At this time, we must be extremely alert and not make any mistakes!" Yuwen Yan seemed to be instructing Qi Xiu, but more like talking to himself.
This time, we can win and cannot lose!
"Yes, Your Highness, please rest assured that I will not fail in my mission." Qi Xiu knelt on one knee and accepted the order.
"Let me go and meet Miss Shu Yushuo!" Yu Wenyan said to himself.
…
They acted quickly as they said they would. Early the next morning, Yu Jianning went out. He first sent a secret letter to Prince Chi Yan, and then went to find out how many days it would take for the envoy from Beishuo to arrive.
At breakfast time, Shu Wan was getting ready to go out. She was always careful and noticed that Yu Wenyan did not go out this morning.
Just now, his subordinate went out. Shu Wan guessed that Yuwen Yan would also come out soon, so she planned to go down first and create an encounter with him.
But as the saying goes, it just so happened that after Shu Wan opened the door, one foot just stepped out
, I looked up and saw Yu Wenyan opposite me just opening the door.
Shu Wan swore that this was really a coincidence.
"Good morning, Master Wen!" Shu Wan greeted with a smile.
"Good morning, Miss Shu." Yu Wenyan bowed politely.
"Mr. Wen, are you going out?" Shu Wan asked.
"I'm ashamed to say that I was lazy in the morning and got up late, so I'm just getting ready to go downstairs for breakfast." Wen Bai said this, but no one knew what he was thinking in his heart, "Where's Miss Shu?" He asked Shu Wan before he finished.
"What a coincidence! I just came downstairs to eat too." Shu Wan stuck out her tongue. "If you don't know, you would think we had an appointment, or that one of us deliberately created this coincidence!" Since she had decided to get close to him, Shu Wan would naturally take the opportunity to find more topics to talk about.
"Haha," Wen Bai laughed, "Miss Shu is really good at joking. In that case, why don't we just consider it as an appointment and go downstairs to have breakfast together?" Wen Bai took the lead in inviting.
"If I refuse now, wouldn't it be a bit ungrateful?" Shu Wan tilted his head. "That would be disrespectful to refuse! But we have to make it clear first. This meal is on my table. Mr. Wen did me such a great favor yesterday, so you have to give me a chance to thank him properly." Shu Wan agreed, but insisted on treating himself.
"Miss Shu has said so, so why shouldn't I obey?" Wen Bai bowed again.
So the two of them went downstairs together, and Shu Wan ordered twelve dishes, a combination of meat and vegetables, which was quite rich.
"Is Master Wen from Chiyan?" Shu Wan tried hard to find a topic to talk about, because Wen Bai seemed a little taciturn.
"I guess so." Yu Wenyan paused before answering.
"Master Wen's answer!" Shu Wan smiled and shook his head, indicating that he could not deny it.
"Is there any problem?" Yuwen Yan asked.
"No problem." Yu Wenyan replied, "Where is Miss Shu from?" he asked Shu Wan.
"From Blackwater City!" Shu Wan did not hide it.
As soon as she said this, Yu Wenyan's body stiffened uncontrollably for a moment, but it only took a moment for him to recover.
"Blackwater City, that's a good place!" Yuwen Yan smiled, but there was something else in his eyes.
"What's good about that!" Shu Wan waved her hands. "Do you know? Our city lord is dead! Fortunately, he was assassinated. And now, suspects are being caught everywhere in the city. You don't know that now in the city, no matter whether you are innocent or not, as long as those officers and soldiers don't like you, they will definitely take you to jail. Tsk tsk, these officials don't behave like human beings, and we ordinary people are the ones who suffer!" Shu Wan was so indignant that she almost raised her fist to beat those evil people into pig heads.
"Haha, Miss Shu, how can you be so funny!" Yuwen Yan laughed, "I've also heard about the death of the Lord of Heishui City. It's such a pity. I heard that Lord Rong was a young talent of his generation and had good ways to govern the city, but he died just like that. It's really a pity of God that such a talented person is envied by God!" He shook his head and sighed.
"That's what I said." Shu Wan picked up a piece of braised pork ribs with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, chewing it with relish. "But in fact, no matter who is the city lord or the emperor, as long as we can have enough food and warm clothes, the rest has little to do with us, don't you think?"
"Miss Shu lives a free life, and what she said makes sense!" Yu Wenyan expressed that he strongly agreed with Shu Wan's words.
"Where are you going next, Master Wen?" Shu Wan quickly changed the subject.
"I don't know. For people who regard the world as their home, they will go wherever they go. Maybe they decide today to travel around the world tomorrow, or maybe they will change their mind tomorrow morning and decide to stay here for a while!" Yuwen Yan was practicing Tai Chi.
"Master Wen is really a free and easy person," Shu Wan shook his hair and laughed, "unlike me, ah!" Then he acted helpless and distressed.
"What's wrong with Miss Shu? Is there anything you can't hide?" Yu Wenyan asked with concern.
"To be honest, I ran away from home!" Shu Wan spoke in a low voice, fearing that others might hear him.
"What do you mean?" Yuwen Yan continued to ask.
"My parents have arranged a marriage for me, but I heard that the boy is fat and ugly, and his feet smell!" Shu Wan could not hide the disgust on his face, and while speaking, he used his hand to fan the air around his nose, as if he had already smelled the odor. "Then do you think I can obey? Of course I couldn't, so I pretended to be obedient, lowered my parents' guard, took the opportunity to run away, and left them a letter, saying that I would not go back home until the engagement was cancelled!" Shu Wan spoke with emotion and kept gesturing with his hands, fearing that Yuwen Yan couldn't hear him.
