A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min
Chapter 172: Leaving the near for the distant
After leaving the hall, Shen Zhao spoke softly to Li Chaoyun, showing consideration in every aspect.
Shen Zhao was naturally good-looking, with delicate features and elegant demeanor. Among the teenage boys in Beijing, he can also be ranked high. Li Chaoyun felt a little more at ease when he saw his small courtesy.
Li Yunzhou, who was following not too far behind, had an expressionless face and was not interested in the content of the conversation between the two.
"Brother Yunzhou, why are you here?" Shen Yue suddenly came over from the corridor on the side and greeted Li Yunzhou with a smile.
She came to greet the old lady and wanted to leave when she saw a guest. But when he saw Li Yunzhou again, he unconsciously took a few steps towards him.
Seeing Shen Yue coming over, Li Yunzhou's expressionless face just now started to smile unconsciously.
"I came here with my father and mother." Seeing her walking fast, he said softly: "Slow down."
In fact, he didn't have much contact with Shen Yue. The only few times he had contact with Shen Yue were in the west courtyard of the Shen family. But Shen Yue has a cheerful personality and loves to laugh. I wonder if he is infected. Every time he sees Shen Yue, he starts laughing unconsciously.
Li Chaoyun originally had his back to Li Yunzhou and was standing under the tree with Shen Zhao talking. Shen Yue frowned slightly when she heard his gentle voice instructing Shen Yue.
She already hated Li Yunzhou, and knowing that Shen Yue and Su Qingyu were on good terms, she couldn't help but turn around and taunted: "How come a housewife calls everyone brother?"
Because no one in the Li family knew about the relationship between Li Yunzhou and Shen Zhixiu, Li Chaoyun was still a little suspicious. Why were Shen Yue and Li Yunzhou so familiar?
Shen Yue has been liked by the old lady and Shen Zhixiu since she was a child. Although she is not Chen's biological child, she is not timid or cowardly.
She didn't have a good impression of Li Chaoyun at all, but after hearing the yin and yang in Li Chaoyun's words, she wanted to say something back.
But then she thought about Shen Zhixiu's instructions to her, saying that no one should know about Li Yunzhou's relationship with him.
Shen Yue raised a smile and pretended to be puzzled.
"The princess is my future sister-in-law, and this is the princess' brother. If I don't call her brother, what would I call her?"
"Or is it that the princess doesn't like my eldest brother and doesn't treat me as a family member?"
Shen Yuesheng's cute and gentle look made Li Chaoyun want to get angry, but he couldn't find a reason.
Li Yunzhou turned around and gave Li Chaoyun a lesson, "Sister, please don't be so willful. People who don't know may think that my Li family is uneducated."
Anyway, Li Chaoyun didn't dare to have a big argument with him outside. As for when he returned home, he didn't care anymore. After all, she had to say something for Shen Yue, otherwise the little girl would be too aggrieved.
Li Chaoyun didn't expect that Li Yunzhou would respond to her on the spot. She wanted to look good to him, but was worried about Shen Zhao's presence.
Just when a few people were in a stalemate, everyone in the Shen family sent Li Jingchuan and Princess Yongjia out.
Li Chaoyun's eyes turned, and he stepped forward and pulled Li Jingchuan and said, "Dad, is there anything else I need to negotiate with the Shen family about my marriage? Why not let Fourth Brother come?"
"I will rest assured if I leave this matter to my fourth brother."
Her original intention was to humiliate Li Yunzhou. This kind of thing was always done by servants.
But Li Jingchuan has always doted on this daughter, and he always favored Li Chaoyun unconditionally no matter what.
So without thinking, he said, "Since Chaoyun only trusts your fourth brother, let Yunzhou handle this matter."
Li Yunzhou was overjoyed. He needed to come to Shen's house frequently these days. How could Zhengchou not be discovered? Unexpectedly, Li Chaoyun helped him a lot.
"What my father said is that it's rare for my sister to trust me, so leave all these trivial matters to me."
There was no hint of dissatisfaction or resentment in his tone.
Princess Yongjia was very satisfied with Li Yunzhou's reaction, but she still scolded Li Chaoyun.
"You only know how to tease your fourth brother. How can he do such trivial things?"
Then he turned to the old lady and explained: "This girl has been spoiled by me. From now on, the old lady will help me teach her more rules."
Mrs. Shen sighed: "The reason why the brother and sister have such a good relationship is because of the princess's loving motherly heart."
"Who in this capital would not praise the princess and say that you treat your children equally, you really have a bodhisattva heart."
Treating a bastard kindly is not a big deal for ordinary people. But when it comes to a princess of a country, it seems extremely rare.
Therefore, over the years, Princess Yongjia has gained a reputation as a virtuous and kind-hearted person in the capital.
Because of her good reputation, the emperor was willing to promote her. The royal family also asked her to do some things that required publicity.
Su Qingyu was a little disdainful of Princess Yongjia's pretentiousness, but she couldn't say anything. There was a vague expectation in my heart, hoping that when Li Yunzhou returned to Beijing, he could deal a fatal blow to the Li family.
After seeing off everyone in the Li family, Shen Zhixiu returned to the study room in the west courtyard, while Su Qingyu paid a visit to Cheng Rujin.
When she got there, the housekeeper was giving orders to take the body out of the house. Although they didn't say where they were sent, they were probably buried at the foot of the mountain outside the city.
Su Qingyu gently lifted the white cloth covering the person, and Cheng Rujin's eyes widened.
The boy who carried the person was so frightened that he almost threw the body out, but Su Qingyu's expression remained unchanged.
She raised her hand, covered her face, and closed her eyes for her.
I muttered in my heart: Cousin, I know you will never die in peace. If you are alive in heaven, you will have fulfilled your vow before your death.
Seeing the smooth progress, Su Qingyu seemed to have settled a matter in her mind.
When she returned to the west courtyard and saw Shen Zhixiu discussing matters with his staff in the study, she changed her clothes, took the jade pendant and left the house to find Lin Wuchen.
In the backyard of Lin's Trading Company, Lin Wuchen was sitting behind the desk, lowering his head and writing something quickly.
Su Qingyu didn't bother her after entering, but sat down on the armchair by the window.
Lin Wuchen raised his head and glanced at him, and just said, "You sit down first." Then he lowered his head and continued to work.
After a while, he put down the pen in his hand, stretched his arms, and then looked at Su Qingyu, "Why are you here now?"
Su Qingyu took out the jade pendant and put it on his desk.
"How come things are still stolen?"
Lin Wuchen was stunned, remembering the message that led him to Ruyi Tower in the morning, and his mind immediately became clearer. Then he asked her, "Did someone dig a hole and hit our brother and sister?"
He picked up the jade pendant and looked at it again, "The rope on this jade pendant is worn to pieces. I thought I lost it. But I didn't expect that this idea would hit you."
Someone came to deliver a message in the morning, saying that he should go to Ruyi Tower, but he didn't say who it was. He waited in Ruyi Building for an hour and came back without seeing anyone. I never expected that this matter would be related to my cousin.
Su Qingyu briefly talked about what happened in Guangfu Building today.
When Lin Wuchen heard that Cheng Rujin had been beaten to death, he gritted his teeth and cursed, "This scourge is finally dead."
"Cousin, you gave me sleeve arrows last time, are there any more? Get me two more." Su Qingyu asked him casually.
Lin Wuchen couldn't help laughing when he heard this. "Aren't you going too far to get what's nearby? I asked Shen Zhixiu to get it for me. You can go directly to him to get it."
