055 Innocent Relationship
Huang Sheng took the empty jar of wine to wash, the woman cleaned up the dishes and went to the kitchen, leaving only Xiao Zhao and the others together.
The man grabbed the corner of the table tightly, and the pain was so painful that he could not breathe, and he could only breathe with difficulty. Could it be that the food was not fresh, otherwise why would it hurt so suddenly?
Seeing that their faces were as white as paper, sweat came out on their foreheads, Xiao Zhao said worriedly: "Two brothers, what's wrong with you? Why are your faces so ugly?"
The man clenched his fists, and the pain came over and over again. The veins on his forehead burst out. He looked at the worried girl and said with difficulty, "Where is the toilet?"
Yong'an City thousands of miles away
After rumors spread among the Shen family girls, the Shen family's son also had rumors that people could chat with him.
The issue of the Shen family saving the beauty from thousands of miles away can almost become a beautiful story.
The two of them are innocent, and there is only a connection between life-saving grace. For some reason, it is getting rid of the words in the neighborhood and alleys.
At the beginning, it was quite close to the facts. His Majesty’s top scholar suddenly left the city on the way to handle business, saved Princess Nanyang’s life from the bandits, and was treated with love by the princess, but he avoided it.
Later, as he spoke, he became a bit crooked. Some people had speculated that the young master of the Shen family fell in love with Nanyang at first sight, and embarked on an official career for her, obtained fame and fortune, and secretly followed Nanyang day and night. It happened that Nanyang was attacked and gave him a chance. Unfortunately, he was so thin-skinned that he dared not see Nanyang. This is just one of the statements.
Some people also say that Nanyang has already fallen in love with the top scholar, but has not received any response. He went out of the city to relax in his heart. In fact, the top scholar has been paying attention to her in secret. Seeing that she was killed, he couldn't help but rescue her. Afterwards, he felt that she was blind and avoided her.
There are also saying that Nanyang did not take the maids and guards when he left the city. In fact, he abandoned his old love and found a new love. The top scholar couldn't swallow his breath and followed him. Unexpectedly, he encountered someone sneak attack, which made Nanyang change his mind, but he was still angry and didn't want to see her.
What's more, some people say that someone secretly planned the attack in Nanyang. Otherwise, it was not the first time that Princess Nanyang left the city. Why did she just get attacked this time? She even saved the top scholar and ignored people after saving them. This is not a pretext of trying to get.
The people have always been very interested in the romantic affairs of these famous nobles. With the push of those who are interested, rumors began to fall in love with the side of playing hard to get. Everyone was amazed and praised the top scholar as the top scholar. They were very scheming and seemed cold and cold, but in fact they were well versed in the way of controlling women.
Rumors entered the palace, and Shao Zhen sat upright and drank tea with Concubine Qin Shu. When he heard these words, he couldn't help but sprayed a mouthful of tea and sprinkled it on the table.
Seeing her winking, Qin Shufei was trying hard to curb her smile, and said in a faint voice: "Nanyang, are these words funny?"
As soon as Nanyang came out, Shao Zhen immediately froze his face, coughed gently, and his eyes signaled the palace maid next to him to clean up the table.
"It's not funny, it's definitely not funny. Mother, I didn't laugh." She covered her face in her palm, and only showed one eye to look at Concubine Qin Shu.
Concubine Qin Shu turned her back and asked Shao Zhen seriously, "The rumors are true and false, but they are not groundless. I want to listen to your explanation."
"Don't the mother know? When she went out last time, Shen Zhuangyuan saved my life." Shao Zhen said in a low voice. That time she sneaked out. It was good that Qin Shufei didn't scold her. She didn't expect her to feel sorry for her. She was still a little guilty anyway.
"You know I'm not asking."
Shao Zhen's eyes rolled and asked half-jokingly: "How is the mother of the mother thinking about the top scholar? Is it suitable to get close to you or be a husband?"
"You are not an official, and you are a female general, and you are almost going to get close to others." Qin Shufei refused to get into the topic and turned around. "What do you think you have given him the identity of a husband?"
Shao Zhen immediately shook his head, "Of course not, but his conditions are indeed excellent and he is also good-looking. Many people should want to recruit him as their husbands."
"Since I don't want to, what's the point of going to the Imperial College twice?" Qin Shufei was in the palace, but she didn't keep her eyes closed. She could find out clearly what she should know.
"This is a misunderstanding. Mothers say that crows have the right to feed back, and sheep know how to kneel down and breastfeed. I don't want to be an ungrateful and heartless person. I just want to thank Chen Zhuangyuan for saving his life. How could I know that others are so arrogant and even annoyed when I see me. No matter how I say it, I am a princess, with a far-reaching rank on his head. His eyes are probably on his head. I don't like to touch someone with a hot face and cold butt. I'll forget it if I don't see you."
Concubine Qin glanced at her indifferently, as if she was judging whether the truth or lies she was telling.
"If you don't believe me, go and ask your cousin Azhao. He came one step late that day. If it weren't for Chen Zhuangyuan, hum..." Shao Zhen hummed twice, stopped in time, and said further, she would have to tell the matter of her running out of the palace by herself.
"Okay, you are short, don't blame others for their tall eyes." Concubine Qin Shu took a sip of tea and shook her head helplessly.
Shao Zhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that this matter had been revealed.
"Don't go to him again in the future. The rumors outside are spreading very well and are harmful to the royal family's face. I have asked Jiang Liao for help until the rumors outside calm down. He will take care of your trip in close care."
Shao Zhen suddenly widened his eyes, "Mother, I don't like him!"
"You should feel proud of yourself, but you are not what you like."
"Mother, you are so unreasonable. Why are you afraid of embarrassing the royal family with Chen Zhuangyuan? Jiang Liao is romantic and shameless. Are you not afraid that he will kidnap me?"
"Why are the girl's family so shameless? Jiang Liao has been fighting against you since he was a child. He is like an enemy. No one will abduct you." Concubine Qin had already had a thorough understanding of the small grudges in their private areas.
Shao Zhen rubbed against Qin Shufei, "Mother, Jiang Liao is different from before. It's not that I like to say he is not good. He is really a bad person in dealing with girls. It's hard to guarantee that one day I want to eat grass by my nest. It's too late to regret it."
The little girl was rustling in her ears and rustled with bad words from others. This was a bad habit she had developed since she was a child. When she complained, she liked to act coquettishly, and with a sense of compassion and playfulness, she would not feel disgusted, but would give birth to a little pity and love out of thin air.
After all, he is his biological mother. Concubine Qin Shu was used to seeing her true face. Although she still felt that she was as lovely as she was when she was a child, she did not take her style and pushed her face out with a stern face, "I think Jiang Liao is pretty good. If you can accept him one day, you can count your ability, I will immediately ask Your Majesty for your marriage."
Shao Zhen snorted disdainfully, "If the mother does this, I will go to the younger uncle!"
Concubine Qin Shu shook her head, "Do you think Prince Yu has left so many nieces and nieces and ignore them, why are you alone?"
"The uncle likes to play and play. Of course, he thinks I am interesting and can have fun for him, otherwise he would have kicked me out." Shao Zhen is still very self-aware of this, but she also feels that she can't play with King Yu. Both of them also don't like Jiang Liao, and they especially like to trip him up.
Concubine Qin Shu no longer talks about her. As long as she doesn't violate the taboos, she will follow her. Shao Zhen has been active since she was a child and can't be idle. However, she has been too close to King Yu over the years. She is fashionable and can't be so willful when she grows up.
The emperor didn't say anything, and Qin Shufei didn't say anything. The palace was calm, as if these rumors were just small fuss and were not enough to take them to heart, but the Shen family didn't think so.
Chen Tingxuan must not have any connection with Princess Nanyang.
Chen Qi was walking in the study. Although he recovered from illness, he still felt a headache. None of his grandchildren could make people worry.
Chen Tingxuan didn't come back until it turned dark. He didn't return to Qingmingju and went directly to Fengmingzhai.
Chen Qi saw Chen Tingxuan walking in, and the candlelight illuminated his face. His eyes were light, but he faintly showed fatigue. Chen Qi felt unbearable and his tone, who originally planned to question him sternly, also became lighter.
"Brother Xuan, you should know what I am looking for you for, right?"
"Grandfather and grandson have a clean relationship with Princess Nanyang, and there is nothing to explain."
Chen Tingxuan never tells lies, Chen Qi breathed a sigh of relief, "I don't mean to blame you, it's just that it's so circulated outside. I have to ask, Princess Nanyang is a bit naughty, you can keep a distance from her in the future. As long as you ignore her, she will soon lose interest. You are also her savior. Even if you offend her, if Your Majesty blames you, we will not be guilty."
"The grandson understands."
Chen Tingxuan was just about to leave when he heard Chen Qi ask: "There is another thing. Not only is it rumored that your friendship with Princess Nanyang, but someone else said that the attack on Nanyang was related to you. You didn't work in the Imperial College that day, why did you suddenly leave the city?"
When working in the Imperial College, I only need to teach in the Imperial College on weekdays, and I don’t have to go out and run around. Although I have worked harder when teaching, I am much more idle than those who are busy outside.
Chen Tingxuan was silent for a while, and the lines on his face became more and more resolute and cold as the candlelight swayed. Chen Qi felt a little lost in his heart when he saw that he didn't speak. He didn't believe that Chen Tingxuan would do such a thing, but it was hard to guarantee that he would be involved.
"Go back to grandfather." He spoke, "The grandson went to send someone to a gift. Maybe he won't see him in the future, so he can't forget his grandson's thoughts."
Chen Qi immediately knew who he was talking about, and his fingers trembled slightly.
