The scumbag ran away from marriage, I remarried on the spot

Hearing this, some fragments flashed through Princess Jingning's mind, and she asked in shock and astonishment: "You, are you Shen Yunzhou?"

As she spoke, she looked carefully at the man who was dying on the bed. The more he looked at him, the more he looked like the boy in her memory, her old creditor - Shen Yunzhou!

Princess Jingning smiled coquettishly and said, "No wonder I think I've seen you somewhere before. I haven't seen you for four years, and you've grown so big."

Shen Yunzhou looked at her with faint eyes.

Princess Jingning felt guilty when he saw her, but she still straightened her back and said confidently: "Why are you looking at me like this? I was still an eleven-year-old girl at the time, and I acted impulsively, but my mother and concubine also took care of me. Now that I have come to apologize to you, what else do you want? I saved your life this time, and our previous grudges have been wiped out."

Shen Yunzhou said: "Okay."

Seeing that he was so easy to talk to, Princess Jingning couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously: "Shen Yunzhou, how did you get yourself into such a mess? Your majestic prince Shen Guogong, who dares to hurt you like this?"

Is this the crown prince Shen Guogong?

Meng Jinyao and Song Xinning were both stunned. Shen Guogong and the others knew about it. They had never met Shen Guogong's eldest son, but they had heard about it. They heard that he passed the imperial examination at the age of fourteen and later went to his maternal grandfather's house to study with a famous teacher. Didn't go back to the capital. However, it seems that things are not simple for the dignified prince of the Duke's family to be able to do this.

A trace of cruelty flashed across Shen Yunzhou's eyes, and he said calmly: "Something happened."

Seeing his expression of inability to elaborate, Princess Jingning became even more curious: "What happened? Could it be that you met a robber?"

Shen Yunzhou looked at her for a moment and replied, "We met a robber."

Princess Jingning rolled her eyes at him: "What do you mean? Forget it, if you don't want to say it, don't say it, and I don't want to hear it either. This is my village outside the city. I'll go home later and give it to you by the way. Send a message to your family and ask them to take you back."

Shen Yunzhou's face paused, and his tone was pleading: "I hope that the girls will keep my return to Beijing a secret."

Princess Jingning asked in confusion: "You have returned to Beijing, why are you still secretive? Have you done something shameful and bad?"

Shen Yunzhou asked back: "I want to catch a thief. If the thief knows that I am not dead, wouldn't it be a warning?"

After hearing this, Princess Jingning was suddenly enlightened. She raised her chin rather proudly and said, "Okay, I'll keep it a secret for you. You can take good care of yourself here. From now on, you owe me a favor."

"Row."

Shen Yunzhou had no objection and turned to look at Meng Jinyao and Song Xinning.

Meng Jinyao said warmly: "Don't worry, Prince Shen, we won't tell anyone."

Song Xinning nodded and agreed, "Yes, we will never tell anyone about it. In order to avoid people talking too much, we didn't let the maids in. Now only the three of us know about it."

Shen Yunzhou said gratefully: "Thank you so many girls."

Princess Jingning hummed softly: "You just spoke to me, but your tone was not so good. I am also your savior."

Those who know the current affairs are handsome.

Shen Yunzhou spoke to her in a very good tone this time and was very grateful: "Yunzhou thanks the princess for saving her life."

Princess Jingning: "..."

Suddenly I felt like I was punched in cotton.

At this time, a servant knocked on the door outside, and Princess Jingning raised her voice: "Come in."

After a while, the servant came in with medicine, and the three of them left the guest room without disturbing the patient's rest.

Before leaving Zhuangzi, Princess Jingning ordered the servants in Zhuangzi to take good care of Shen Yunzhou and not allow the servants to tell anyone about the personal rescue they had done. Then she beat the maids and servants she brought.

The servants were afraid of getting into trouble, so naturally they didn't dare to speak out. Otherwise, what if the princess punished them and then sold them out?

The maids around Song Xinning and Meng Jinyao were all strict-mouthed, and as long as they were warned, they would not tell anyone about saving a man.

When they returned, Song Xinning and Meng Jinyao sat in Princess Jingning's carriage, so they could talk and pass the time on the way.

Princess Jingning asked: "Why do you think the dignified prince Shen Yunzhou did this to him? He said he encountered robbers, why do I find it so unbelievable?"

Meng Jinyao thoughtfully replied: "Someone wants to kill him. Whoever benefits the most from his death may be the murderer."

Princess Jingning couldn't figure it out: "He hasn't joined the officialdom yet. We rule out the reason for assassination by political enemies. He is just a scholar at the moment. Who is in the way?"

Song Xinning pondered for a moment and said meaningfully: "No, even if he doesn't become an official, he will probably hinder others."

Hearing this, Meng Jinyao had an idea and thought of a possibility. She met Song Xinning's eyes and nodded with tacit understanding.

Princess Jingning glared at them: "Why are you still playing riddles?"

Meng Jinyao said calmly: "I remember that Mrs. Shen Guogong is now the stepmother of Mr. Shen Guogong, and Prince Shen is the child of Mr. Shen Guogong's first wife, and now Mrs. Shen has her own son. If Prince Shen is gone, who do you think will benefit the most? "

When Princess Jingning heard this, she was instantly enlightened. At the same time, her eyes widened in shock and she lowered her voice and said, "In other words, the murder of Shen Yunzhou was most likely caused by Mrs. Shen and her son?"

Meng Jinyao replied: "This is just a guess. Don't draw any conclusions without evidence. I have experienced a lot of secrets in the back house. Murders like this for profit are also common in many back houses."

Princess Jingning was in disbelief: "Mrs. Shen looks very kind, and she is also the sister of Shen Guogong's first wife, Shen Yunzhou's stepmother and aunt. She doesn't look like someone who can do such a thing."

Hearing this, Meng Jinyao smiled disapprovingly: "There are many people who are kind-hearted but cruel, such as my stepmother. If I hadn't found her doing evil things, I would have always treated her as my biological mother."

Song Xinning also said: "That's right, anyone can do superficial things."

"That's all, that's a matter for Duke Shen's mansion and has nothing to do with me." After Princess Jingning said that, she thought of another thing and murmured, "My mother and concubine have chosen a husband for me, and one of them is There is Duke Shen’s second son, who is Mrs. Shen’s son.”

Meng Jinyao said warmly: "Then if I ask you to meet me, you can just tell the princess that you are not interested. The princess loves you so much and will not force you to marry someone you don't like. If the princess is very satisfied with Second Young Master Shen, then that's okay Mention today’s events to the princess to dispel her thoughts.”

Princess Jingning nodded lightly, no longer dwelling on this issue, and directly changed the subject to talk about other things.

After entering the city, the three of them wandered around for a while before going their separate ways and heading back home.

In front of the Changxing Hou Mansion.

Meng Jinyao got off the carriage and was about to enter the mansion when she heard the sound of a carriage coming from behind. She turned around and saw Gu Jingxi's carriage. Her eyes lit up and she stood there waiting.

The carriage stopped, and as soon as Gu Jingxi got off the carriage, a familiar voice entered his ears: "Husband."

Hearing the sound, Gu Jingxi looked sideways and saw the little girl standing delicately and quietly on the steps, looking at him with a smile. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her body, as if it was tinged with a layer of soft light, which made her face glow. The smile becomes more gentle and touching.

Gu Jingxi raised the corners of his mouth and responded: "Madam."
