Chapter 123 (2/2)
Early on the second day, Shen Xin and entourage set off again Hastening on with their journey fro capital before noon Because they still had to look for a residence, it was ideal to be as early as possible
When they arrived at the city gates of the Ding capital, the guards at the city gates asked to see Shen Xin identifying placard and suddenly were on awe, “So it is General Shen!” Finishi+ng, they let the rest quickly open the city gates for Shen Xin and entourage to enter
Luo Tan said, “GuFu, they see you a lot It see”
But Shen Qiu and Shen Miao frowned at the sa capital, the indifferent facial expressions that those guards had, were like those anted to throw stones when one was done Now to be that enthusiastic, it is certainly not because of needing him to come back to deter the Qin country people It was most likely… Instructed by someone else
Luo Tan parted the carriage curtain and looked out before exclai and so lively There are a lot est Sister, the young ladies here look very pretty, how could one look that fresh? Heavens, even the gentlemen here are all fair and tender”
Her noise was heard by those closeby and they looked over It did not matter if they did not look but once they looked they shouted out, “It is General Shen General Shen has returned!”
General Shen had returned!
Shen Xin originally had a pro Qi's commoners' hearts, and since in these two years, the Xie family fell into misfortune and the Shen family moved away, this made the people feel that the heroes' end was desolate Even 's people ca capital, there was suddenly a sense of humbleness as they could not protect thee at such a time, it undoubtedly allowed the commoners to feel as if they have a pillar of support When ly, “General Shen has returned!”
For a period of time the cheers of the crowd ale, as the coht after them Luo Tan covered her mouth, “Heavens GuFu's reputation in these people eyes and h”
Luo Ling and the rest ere outside had unbearable expressions It was a good thing that there were people to give a elcoht after Every year when Shen Xin return to the capital, there would always be such a sight But today, Shen Xin did not return with merits, but instead was recalled back to the capital by the Eo The louder the co the slap was on Eainst Emperor Wen Hui
In the carriage, Luo Xue Yan's and Shen Miao's expression also slightly becaaze suddenly got colder Only Luo Tan did not understand as going on, and was delighted with Shen Xin's prestige
The road was blocked and Shen Xin could only let the few guards beside him to explain to the coh they stood at both sides of the road to look, they were not as excited as they were previously and opened up the way
Mo Qing and Ah Chi rode their horses off to look for residences Just like what Shen Miao said, there was a street next to the Yan Qing Lane and the residences there were not bad Now that Shen Xin had spent a lot ofthe Luo family's army, he was not as well off as he was previously In spite of this, since Shen Miao wanted to reside in the southern part of the city, Shen Xin agreed to it without saying anything further
The horse carriage headed towards the south of the city
The closer one gets to the Yan Qing Lane, the less the people were there This was because those living around the Yan Qing Lane were dignitaries and nobility, and commoners would not be able to afford to stay in that section of land The welcoe was able to traveland the rest quickly reported that they had found a residence that one could first reside in, before discussing about inal owners of that residence knew of Shen Xin's name and did not request much money for collateral
When they were only one street away froust of wind that blew the curtain of Shen Miao's carriage, quickly blew apart the curtain but it also quickly fell down
Shen Miao's eyes slightly congealed Luo Tan saw this and asked, “What is the matter?”
Shen Miao took at glance at the carriage curtain and shook her head, “Nothing” But she was secretly vigilant as just now for a shortmonitored That kind of attention made one felt very uncomfortable
In one of the tall buildings at a distance, there was a younga flute with a female by his side That female's appearance was as delicate as a flower and refined as jade, those tacky jewellery that she wore did not look ugly at all, but instead lanced at the far away carriage and said in disdain, “Is not this the Forreat prestige but is only no more than this”
The male by her side was in his early twenties and had some resemblance to her He was considered handsoave him a vicious look He s Qi to restrain their fear, it is not a simple trash”
“Older Brother Crown Prince is joking again” That feance, “The Marquis of Lin An, from the Xie family, was also lawless previously, but now is still like a bereaved dog They could not even retain the co More likely than not, the Shen family would be the second Xie family”
Thewith that female's words
At the other side, there was soreen covered his figure in half, only revealing the flowing corner of his gold robes One of his hands picked the teacup in front and that hand was vigorous There was a white jade ring in the er, which made the entire hand seemed to be carved out from jade As the teacup neared his lips, it revealed a beautiful chin The reddish thin lips that had been touched by the tea, seeh seductive to hook another's mind
The corner of his lips slowly hooked up
The residence that Mo Qing found was an alley a turn away fro Lane, where the busiest restaurants of the southern city were located The location was very good The owners were easy going, and Luo Xue Yan and Shen Xin were very frank people so when the owners put up a reasonable price, they bought the residence that very night and changed the owner of the residence
At this end it was just settled, but there were eunuchs from the Palace that came over to read out the Imperial edict, which was for Shen Xin to enter the Palace the next day to er, apparently thing had reached a very critical position After receiving the Is in, the skies turned dark After dinner, everyone could go and rest after finally settling everything down
Shen Miao and Luo Tan resided in adjacent courtyards The courtyards here were not as spacious as the General residence, but it was considered neat, clean and had a unique style It is just that Shen Xin and Shen Qiu had sorets, as they could not train in the courtyard Luo Xue Yan and Luo Tan were very satisfied and Shen Miao did not value such things, so naturally she had no objections
At the end during the night, Luo Tan sneaked into Shen Miao's room to talk
Luo Tan rapped in a cape as she sat on Shen Miao couch, “Biao Youngest Sister, I cannot sleep Accompany me and chat”
“What do you want to chat about?” Shen Miao let Jing Zhe and the rest withdraw, and cut the wick of the oil laoing to sleep, so she was casually flipping the pages of the book on the table, but did not seriously read it
“One did not expect the Ding capital would be like this” One could not tell if the Luo Tan's tone of voice was of disappointht that places outside would be the sa capital is even bigger and livelier than what those storytellers said Biao Youngest sister, I am still a little scared”
There was finally a day where the out of control Eldest Young Lady of the Luo faently, “What is so scary?”
“Of course one is scared when one is alone outside Even though Older Brother Ling is here, but this is not the faest Sister, did you experience such scary ti when GuGu and GuFu were in the Northwestern region and left you alone in the Ding capital, were you scared?”
“There is nothing scary” Shen Miao lightly replied To her it was not scary to be left behind in the Shen residence as at the beginning, in her eyes the people in the Shen residence were considered trusted relatives Not knowing, thus fearless Like what Luo Tan spoke of, being afraid because of being alone outside… In the beginning when she was in the Qin country, was not it like that?
Thinking of the Qin country, Shen Miao's eyes flashed and suddenly thought about the words that the waiter said today The people of the Qin country and the Great Liang have co the tribute that she saw the Crown Prince of the Qin country and the Great Liang's people At that ti the I Qi felt dreadful In order to check and balance the Great Liang, the Ming Qi and the Qin country probed with one another until when Fu Xiu Yi sat on the throne, the Ming Qi and the Qin country started an alliance and let her, the Ee… The Crown Prince of the Qin country, HuangFu Hao, was a very vile and savage person, one did not knohy, but he liked to go against her, and also Princess Ming An was so arrogant that it was scary The difficult and hu days in the Qin country were all thanks to this pair of siblings
As for Prince Rui of the Great Liang… Shen Miao frowned In the original tribute of Ming Qi, the envoy that the Great Liang sent over in the past, it was not this Prince Rui It was another Imperial relative, but the reputation of Prince Rui was already spread far wide He was the younger blood brother of E Le, but would not appear norant of hi Qi's Empress in her previous life, and she knew very little of this Prince Rui as Fu Xiu Yi had not mention about this person before
At the end, there were soed
Luo Tan did not noticed that Shen Miao was lost in her thoughts and spoke what she wanted, “At first I still thought that if I everlife, one would definitely pay an official visit to Ming Qi's Marquis of Lin An's residence's Xie faht that now that one is here will not be able totill here, she actually became somewhat sad, “Why could he not wait till I came to see?”
Shen Miao was slightly surprised for a radually beca capital, the previous servants in the original residence spoke about the events within the two years One of the major events was in the residence of the Marquis of Lin An, ever since Xie Jing Xing's death, the Xie faot ten years older in a night Xie Ding initially gave his resignation to Emperor Wen Hui but to no avail, E still retained his official position, he had no will to fight and would often drift along the days muddleheaded However his two Shu sons entered officialdoood reviews and within a couple more of years, they would be able to beco Qi
On the contrary to what one 's death returned to the Ding capital, Princess Rong Xin took a trip to the residence of the Marquis of Lin An andcold as ruthless, that he made the perfectly fine Marquis's residence lose Princess Yu Qing and also Xie Jing Xing, and was a devils' nest that eats people Princess Rong Xin cried as she vented her anger, and almost smashed the entire residence of the Marquis of Lin An After that, she lived an even er came out
The Su faood relations with the residence of the Marquis of Lin An also gradually declined Not ht prospects, gradually quietened down In general, the Xie fa's death, and the corets
Distinguished and acco and valiant, should have been a hero in the battlefield but at the end, he died so tragically It was of no wonder that when the young ladies of Ming Qi heard about the news of Xie Jing Xing's death, they could not help but cry to themselves
As Shen Miao watched the ju flames, her eyes dropped and when she turned, she saw that Luo Tan had fell onto the couch, fast asleep
Luo Xue Yan used the brush to coh she was the mother of two children, her hair was still dark and shi+ny, without a single strand of white hair and could even contend with twenty eight young females
Shen Xin took off his heavy ar the Palace to”
“What is there to be afraid of?” Shen Xin walked behind her and held her shoulders before soothingly saying, “It is not our first ti the Palace, could is be that you are afraid of the music? Do not be afraid, there is still me there”
“I am not afraid of this” Luo Xue Yan rolled her eyes at him, “You and me are very well aware about the matter of our return Those persons in the Palace most likely have a lump in their hearts When I previously discussed with Father about the matter, Father said that one fear that His Majesty would take hold of so to control our Shen family”
Shen Xin frowned, “What is theof Furen's words?”
“Jiao Jiao and Qiu-er are still not married yet” Luo Xue Yan reotthe two years in the Xiao Chun City, and so onewould be settled But one did not expect that the Emperor's edict would coained power, one fear that there are a nu closely Will the Ee as a topic to control the Shen family?”
Shen Xin jumped in shock, “How can it be? Nonsense!” No matter what the case in Shen Xin's eyes, Shen Qiu's and Shen Miao's es are not allowed to be e to control the Shen farate to other forces
“NotQiu-er's, I felt that Jiao Jiao's cannot wait for too long” Luo Xue Yan said, “Jiao Jiao is currently sixteen, do not talk about the Xiao Chun City, we are in the Ding capital and she is at the age where engageehteen, it would be ideal to get married One have to settle Jiao Jiao when there is still no news from the Palace”
“Such a rush?” Shen Xin hesitated, “What kind of good families is there? Not to mention the need to understand the other's character”
“What do you think…” Luo Xue Yan looked at hi-er?”
