Chapter 154 Sorry
Chen Yu rode on a frost-covered and dewy road, and even though she galloped, she still couldn't catch up with Xie Tingzhou.
At noon, she finally arrived at the palace.
The gate of Qingpu Residence was closed and the guards were standing at the gate. It was obvious that Xie Tingzhou had returned.
When Chen Yu tried to go in, the guards moved aside and blocked the door.
Chang Liu sat on the eaves, crossed his arms and said, "Your Highness has been traveling all night and just fell asleep. Please come back later."
Chen Yu thought about it and decided to go to the Ministry of War to take up the post first, and then come to see him after returning.
Chang Liu looked at her leaving figure and couldn't help but mutter, "You've offended someone, but you don't even bother to appease them. You just leave when you say you're leaving. Don't you have the nerve to be thick-skinned and keep pestering them?"
Chen Yu went to the Ministry of War, and the people there all acted according to the mood of Shangshu Wen Hongyuan.
Wen Hongyuan's nephew Wen Lesheng had just committed murder. Not only had he lost this lucrative job, he might even lose his life. Now that someone has come to take his place, the people in the Ministry of War are naturally hesitant and making things difficult for him.
It was already evening when I returned, and Qingpu House still looked the same as it did in the morning.
The guard stopped him again, "Your Highness, please take a rest."
Chen Yu glanced at the sky. It wasn't even dark yet. Resting was just an excuse. She didn't have to rest for the whole day.
Chen Yu discussed with Jin Wei, "We have been working together for such a long time, please give us some convenience."
The guard looked around and confirmed that no one was on the eaves. He lowered his voice and reminded, "His Highness closes the door when he comes back in the morning and does not see anyone. Maybe if you come tomorrow morning, he will be less angry."
He had no choice. An order had been issued in the yard that no one was allowed to disturb them.
Now all the guards know that Shi Yu is a girl, and her relationship with His Highness is naturally different, but anyone in this order is clearly directed at Shi Yu, and no one dares to take Xie Tingzhou's order lightly.
Chen Yu couldn't wait until tomorrow morning.
She received an order from the Ministry of War today that the bandits should be suppressed as soon as possible. The soldiers had already been selected before Wen Lesheng got into trouble, and she was asked to set off early tomorrow morning.
Shen Yu thought for a moment, "Then I won't embarrass you."
After saying that, she stepped forward and entered the yard. The guards did not expect her to force her way in, and before they could stop her, they heard the sound of fighting in the yard.
The secret guard flew over, and people wanted to stop him, but they didn't dare to draw their swords and could only meet him with bare hands.
Chen Yu's punch was extremely powerful, the dark guard
He only felt a strong wind blowing, and the secret guard was startled when his arms collided.
He had never fought with Shi Yu, but he had seen her wielding the sword that night, and she was very agile and graceful. However, he did not expect that a woman like her could have such powerful boxing skills.
The secret guard slid his foot in an arc, "There's no need to take action against one of our own people, right?"
"Then don't stop me!" Chen Yu's second move followed, a kick in the air missed, and she turned around and kicked again.
The secret guard took the kick head-on, calculated where she would land, and then launched a sweeping kick.
The fight was going on here. Xifeng was watching from the eaves with his arms folded. Changliu was sitting on the stone steps with his hands flat on his legs, watching.
He glanced into the room and asked quietly, "There's so much noise outside, why is there no movement inside?"
Xifeng was watching intently when he saw the secret guard seize the opportunity and grab Shi Yu's arm. The guard had quite a bit of arm strength and lifted him up with great effort.
Chen Yu's feet left the ground and she was pulled up by him, taking advantage of the momentum to fly into the air. She flew up suddenly, used her feet to gain leverage on the tree, turned around and attacked the secret guard again.
Chang Liu tugged at Xi Feng's robe, "What happened at Baishan Hunting Ground? Why did the prince and Shi Yu break up?"
"Don't use the word breakup all the time." Xifeng said, "Children don't understand the world of adults."
Chang Liu snorted, propped up his chin and watched for a while, "Her fighting style is so chaotic and mixed, I can't tell which school it comes from."
"It looks messy, but it's actually integrated." Xifeng said enviously: "A natural martial arts genius can rely on hard work, but integration is a gift."
"Isn't that talking about me?" Chang Liu raised his head and said proudly, "The master also praised me in the same way."
Xi Feng glanced at him and said, "Look at how other people attack. They are a combination of talent and hard work. You are not like that. You are lazy every day and you have only practiced Qinggong well."
"What's wrong with Qinggong? It's most useful when you're escaping."
Chang Liu looked at her for a while and concluded, "Her Qinggong is not as good as mine, and I am not as good as her in other aspects, so it's a draw, we are evenly matched."
Xi Feng sneered back at him, "Do you have any idea in your mind?"
Chang Liu asked again: "You said she was good, but why can't she win after such a long time?"
"Brother will teach you." Xifeng said, "She held back, not for the sake of winning, but just to test.
”
"Are you testing the depth of the secret guard brother's kung fu?"
Xi Feng shook his head and pointed at the person in the room, "She didn't come out despite the big noise. She also understands His Highness' attitude."
Sure enough, the next moment Shen Yu withdrew her hand and did not attack again.
She glanced at the lighted but closed door, and her eyes suddenly felt a little sore. She took a half step back to the dim place under the eaves and clasped her fists towards the secret guard.
"I'm sorry."
The secret guard clasped his fists and responded, "Thank you for showing mercy."
Shen Yu said nothing more.
Chang Liu seemed to see her giving him a smile, but it was an ugly smile. Then she turned around, opened the gate and walked out step by step.
Chang Liu stood up and clapped his hands, "There's no more show to watch."
When he turned around, he saw that the window of the study was open with a palm-wide gap. Xie Tingzhou was looking away from the courtyard gate, staring at the light on the table, slightly absent-minded.
At dawn the next day, the secret guards welcomed Shen Yu again.
This time she climbed over the wall again, but she didn't do anything directly. She just stood in the yard for a while, and then said to him: "I won't make things difficult for you. I'll just say a few words and leave."
For some reason, her eyes made people feel a little lonely, and the secret guard tactfully shrank into the shade of the tree.
Shen Yu walked forward a few steps and stopped at the bottom of the stairs.
It was just three steps, but that was a gap she couldn't cross.
She knew what he was angry about, so she took the initiative and started planning yesterday's situation by putting the blame on Wen Lesheng. Things went just as she expected, without any problems.
The only thing I didn't calculate correctly was him.
The courage on her shoulders was heavy, the road was long and dangerous, but if all he wanted was long-term companionship, she couldn't do it.
Chen Yu bent down and put down a small box. She thought about it and actually had a lot to say, but she felt that no words could fully express her inner feelings.
She knew clearly that she liked him and wanted him, but she couldn't force him to compromise for her.
"I..." Shen Yu paused for a moment, raised her head and held back her tears.
"I'm sorry, I can't be a dodder."
She said this and turned around.
This time she walked very fast and decisively, not as slowly as she did last night, as if she was waiting for someone to call her.
