"Perhaps, only God knows." Shen Qingwu said this in the face of Xiao Qingyi's expectant gaze.
Xiao Qingyi, "..."
While the two were talking, they had already reached the door. Shen Qingwu had no intention of continuing. Xiao Qingyi suddenly didn't understand what Shen Qingwu had said before about dying of old age.
The two seem to be contradictory, but also seem normal. No matter what path she chooses, or whether she has regrets, her life will always be smooth and she will live safely until old age, which can be considered a gift from God.
"Stay." Xiao Qingyi smiled relievedly, "Wait until I find Yingying, then we'll go together."
"Thank you." Shen Qingwu nodded.
…
"Can I ask? Why didn't you dodge when Liu Ruyan wanted to kill you today? It's okay if you don't want to say it." After returning to Wutong Garden, Shen Qingtang was still there. He asked directly about his concerns.
Shen Qingfeng also looked over worriedly from the side.
Regardless of whether this person is still his previous foolish sister, since she is using his sister's body and they get along well, he hopes that she can be safe and sound.
Shen Qingwu had thought about this question on the way back, and now he smiled calmly, "Suddenly seeing Liu Ruyan's future, I couldn't believe it, so I was distracted."
"Have you seen Liu Ruyan's future?" Shen Qingtang asked doubtfully.
"Well, when she stabbed the knife into my hand, I saw her committing suicide and didn't react." Shen Qingwu explained, "I don't know how I suddenly saw Liu Ruyan's future."
Shen Qingfeng and Shen Qingtang looked at each other. They wanted to ask more questions but didn't know where to start.
Shen Qingwu smiled and didn't want to say anything more.
Several people were silent in Wutong Garden. Wu Dabao came in and said that the prince had arrived, and his Royal Highness the Prince of Yan was accompanying him.
Shen Qingwu raised his eyebrows slightly. Chu Guannan is here too?
"Please sit in the front yard for a while, Your Highness. I will be there soon." Shen Qingfeng said.
Watching Wu Dabao leave, he looked at Shen Qingwu worriedly, "What do you think about the marriage with the prince?"
Shen Qingfeng knew everything about how the prince had allowed Shen Qingwu to be bullied.
All the women in Kyoto who marry the prince are marrying up, and their future behavior will inevitably depend on the prince's mood.
The Shen family holds the military power, but they still cannot allow Shen Qingwu to act with impunity in front of the prince.
However, if giving up military power can win freedom for his sister, Shen Qingfeng is still willing to try.
When the marriage was arranged, the Shen family had just started and had no bargaining chips, but now they barely have some.
"If I don't want to, what are you going to do, brother?" Shen Qingwu asked with a smile.
"Of course I will do whatever it takes to get you a chance to break off the engagement." Shen Qingfeng said without hesitation, a look of guilt on his face. "When the marriage was first arranged, I disagreed, but I didn't have the ability to fight for you. Now that I have some leverage, I'm willing to give it a try."
Shen Qingfeng has been working hard outside for these years and has not married, all for the sake of one day leaving the army with military merits, coming back to take Shen Qingwu away, and leaving his silly sister at home to raise her for the rest of her life.
But what I didn't expect was that Shen Qingwu is no longer stupid.
"Thank you, big brother. If you need anything, I won't be polite to you." Shen Qingwu said with a smile, "Go quickly, don't keep the prince waiting for too long."
Looking at Shen Qingfeng's back, Shen Qingwu suddenly remembered that he had not yet asked Chu Guannan whether he had revealed his purpose and identity to Shen Qingfeng.
However, judging from Shen Qingfeng's current reaction, it seems that the two have never had any contact.
"If that day really comes, I will take you away at all costs." Shen Qingtang promised with a smile.
Although the Ten Absolute Sects cannot fight against the royal family, with her ability, she should be able to take Shen Qingwu away and make it impossible for the monks to find her.
A man like Crown Prince Chu Guanxi is totally unworthy of Shen Qingwu. He was not worthy of her when he was stupid, and he is even less worthy of her now.
Shen Qingwu smiled and nodded, "Sister, your words are trustworthy."
…
Shen's house, front yard.
Seeing that Shen Qingwu didn't come over, the prince was visibly disappointed.
Shen Qingfeng saluted the prince in a distant and polite manner.
"Brother Shen, there's no need to be so polite. I heard that Qingwu was injured, so I came to visit her. Is she feeling better now?" Taizi Xu gave her a hand and asked anxiously.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. My life is no longer in danger." Shen Qingfeng said politely, glancing at Chu Guannan vaguely.
I was puzzled. What was King Yan doing here?
The prince was keenly aware of Shen Qingfeng's coldness. They had never met in private since Shen Qingfeng returned to Beijing.
But Shen Qingfeng was indifferent to him, and as a prince, he couldn't just stick his head to someone who was not very nice to him.
He only said, "I want to go and see how Qingwu is injured."
Shen Qingfeng wanted to refuse, but when he thought about Shen Qingwu wanting to go to mourn Chu Zhiyou today, he looked a little hesitant.
"Your Highness." Before he could think of how to respond, Shen Qingwu, with gauze wrapped around his hands, walked in with the support of Shen Qingtang.
Chu Guannan glanced at her injured hand, murderous intent surging from the depths of his dark eyes.
It was such a blessing for Liu Ruyan to die like this.
"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here today, I would like to ask him to send an imperial physician to see Aunt Zhao and help urge the pursuit of the murderer. My Shen family has suffered too many bloody disasters recently." Shen Qingwu said not very politely, but his smile was very sincere.
"Since Miss Chen knows the art of divination, can't she tell you a fortune for herself?" Chu Guannan asked with a smile.
The excuse he gave for following the prince was to ask Shen Qingwu to tell his fortune.
"A fortune teller doesn't tell his own fortune, and a doctor doesn't treat himself." Shen Qingwu shook his head helplessly. "Although I haven't learned the art of fortune telling from scratch, I know the most basic rules of the magic that has been bestowed upon me."
"What if I ask Miss Shen to tell my fortune?" Chu Guannan asked again.
Shen Qingwu shook his head again and said in the prince's puzzled eyes, "My divination skills are very limited, and I can't predict the status of the royal family."
Chu Guannan sighed helplessly, "Since that's the case, I won't force it."
Then he bowed and said goodbye, looking at the prince inquiringly, asking if he wanted to go together.
"It's getting late. If you have nothing to do, you may stay for dinner. Before, I didn't have a father or brother at home, so it was not convenient for me to entertain guests. Now that my brother has returned home, if you are willing to do me the honor, it will be an honor for the Shen family." Shen Qingwu immediately made an invitation with a smile.
The Crown Prince's face lit up with joy, and he nodded without hesitation, "I have always wanted to ask you two gentlemen about the border situation."
Then he looked at Chu Guannan again, "If you're okay, Third Brother, why don't you stay with us?"
Chu Guannan immediately shook his head and waved his hands, "My Royal Brother, it's boring to talk about serious matters. I won't have dinner with you. I'm leaving first."
Then he ran away as if escaping.
The prince shook his head helplessly, but was very satisfied with Chu Guannan's performance.
"The kitchen needs to prepare the meal. If you have time, why not come with me to see Zhao Qiuyi?" Shen Qingwu made an invitation.
