Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother
Chapter 225 A glimmer of hope
Ye Yunzi turned around and prepared to leave the cell when a figure quickly approached and hugged her tightly.
She was startled and tried to break free, but after seeing that it was Shen Siyan, she gradually calmed down.
"Yun'er, are you hurt?" Shen Siyan let go of her after a long time. He held her shoulders with both hands and carefully checked whether she was injured. His eyes were full of anxiety and worry.
"No." Ye Yunzi shook her head.
Facing Shen Siyan's concerned eyes, she felt a surge of warmth in her heart, and she couldn't calm down for a long time. He came here desperately for her.
"Let's go home." Shen Siyan said softly.
Hearing this, Ye Yunzi smiled and said, "Okay, let's go home..."
The two men rode the same horse, walking on the mountain path, the wind blowing through their hair and clothes, drawing graceful arcs in the air.
Ye Yunzi snuggled in Shen Siyan's chest and felt unprecedented peace.
"How did you find me?" she asked curiously. It happened so suddenly that she didn't even have time to leave any clues. How did he find this place based on the alley where she disappeared?
Shen Siyan looked down at her. They were very close to each other. Although he remained silent, his gaze slowly moved from her eyes to her lips.
Ye Yunzi's cheeks flushed instantly, and her heart was in turmoil. She felt very nervous, and her whole body froze, not daring to move. At this moment, Shen Siyan said softly: "No matter where you are, I can find you."
This sentence was like a breeze blowing through Ye Yunzi's heart, making her heart beat faster. The horses galloped, and the two seemed to blend into the forest, like a perfect match.
After returning to the capital, they stopped in front of a clothing store on West Street. Shen Siyan got off the horse and held out his hand.
Ye Yunzi looked at his reassuring hand and shook it without hesitation. Shen Siyan held it tighter, hoping that they could continue walking like this.
Outside the clothing shop, a figure was pacing back and forth anxiously. When he saw Ye Yunzi return safely, he immediately stopped.
"Miss, Miss..." When Yu Shu saw her, her eyes became moist and she almost cried.
Ye Yunzi walked closer and nodded slightly to Yu Shu to indicate that she was fine.
"Miss, it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of you... If I could have gone with you at that time, this wouldn't have happened." Yu Shu blamed herself.
"I'm fine." Ye Yunzi shook her head. "Master Ye didn't hurt me. He just wanted to use me."
On the second floor of the garment shop, Ye Yunzi sat down and recounted what had happened in detail.
After hearing this, Yu Shu clenched her fists in anger and said, "How shameless!"
When Yu Shu thought of what Master Ye had done to his wife and daughter in the past, she felt uneasy. Even though he had left the Ye Mansion, he still refused to give up and wanted to use his daughter. "Fortunately, you saw through his disguise, otherwise..."
Ye Yunzi's expression was calm: "Even if what he said was true, I would not believe him. Even if he took out his heart and showed it to me, that heart would be black."
Past experiences had taught her, especially the way he treated her mother, that she no longer had any illusions about him.
There was indifference in her eyes, and she no longer let down her guard against anyone.
Although she is still young, she is accustomed to surviving in danger-ridden situations, and her heart is full of sophistication and alienation.
Seeing this, Shen Siyan felt full of pity.
Ye Yunzi recovered and asked, "Have you told the Su family about my disappearance?"
Yu Shu shook her head: "I didn't say it. I know you don't want to worry the master and the lady, so I asked the head of the Shen family for help this time."
"You did the right thing." Ye Yunzi nodded with gentle eyes.
"Thank you Shen Siyan, luckily you came to see me."
Shen Siyan thought for a moment and took out an old land deed from his sleeve.
"I'll give you this shop. If anything happens in the future, we can meet here."
Ye Yunzi was startled and looked up at him: "Shen Siyan, this... such a valuable thing, I can't accept it."
"I really can't handle everything in two places at once. I can only feel at ease if I leave it to you." Shen Siyan said calmly.
"He Qing, come in."
As soon as he finished speaking, a capable man came in from outside and saluted Shen Siyan.
"This is He Qing. He will stay in the shop and wait for orders. He was trained by me and can protect you." In order to ensure Ye Yunzi's safety, Shen Siyan specially arranged for expert guards.
Ye Yunzi felt his intentions and stopped refusing, nodding in agreement.
Inside the Zhaohua Palace, the emperor sat on a high throne, and a white-haired old minister stood respectfully.
The emperor frowned, looking worried. He stood up and walked towards the old minister, calling him, "Grandmaster."
This old minister was none other than Old Master Shen, who was once the emperor's tutor. The emperor respected him greatly, knowing that his achievements were inseparable from the tutor's teachings. Especially when Prince Han rebelled, Old Master Shen's strategies helped repel the rebels.
"Taifu, recently..." The emperor sighed and told the story of a palace maid who attempted to murder Princess Wei Yang. He kept this matter strictly confidential and only a few people knew about it. However, the mark of King Han's power, a black snake, was found on the palace maid.
It was obvious that King Han's confidant had infiltrated the palace. What was his purpose? Did he want to stir up trouble again?
The emperor's face was full of worry, his brows furrowed, "Master, what do you think? I think only you can solve the doubts in my heart."
Although Old Master Shen is over eighty years old and has a head full of silver hair, his eyes are bright and he is still energetic.
He sighed softly, looking down, "This old minister has retired for many years, and I only know how to tend to flowers and plants every day. I am afraid I can no longer share your worries."
"This..." The emperor looked embarrassed and was speechless for a moment.
Old Master Shen continued, "However, my grandson Si Yan has been very smart since he was young, and he may be able to lend a hand to Your Majesty."
"Shen Siyan?" A glimmer of hope flashed in the emperor's eyes.
……
In the Shen Mansion, when Shen Siyan stepped into the gate of the Shen Mansion and saw the familiar plaque, he couldn't help feeling sad.
Although the Shen Mansion is simply decorated, it reveals a low-key luxury that is very impressive.
"Si Yan." A voice sounded, and a pale-faced man walked over. He had to cover his mouth with a handkerchief and cough lightly every few steps, looking quite weak.
The man is Shen Siyan’s cousin Shen Feng.
Shen Siyan looked up, saw the person coming, and immediately called out, "Brother."
Shen Feng approached, and Shen Siyan asked with concern: "Brother, have you been feeling better recently?"
"It's still the same." Shen Feng smiled bitterly. Although the weather was not cold yet, he had put on a heavy cloak and his condition did not seem to be getting better. Despite this, he still forced a smile and patted Shen Siyan's shoulder, "I'm glad you're back. Mother has been looking forward to your return."
"You've been away for a long time, it's time to come back. The Shen Mansion needs someone to take charge... My health is getting worse and worse, and the burden will fall on you in the future." Shen Feng's eyes flashed with helplessness, full of apology to his brother, "It's all because of my brother's uselessness. I can't help you."
