Chapter 167 The Jealous King

The two of them had already broken up with each other, and when Shen Yan came to visit, it was naturally impossible to reminisce with her.

Shen Yan sat back slowly, "I'm taking my mother out of the capital."

Shen Yu was surprised in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face.

Shen Yan continued: "Don't think that I'm thinking of any conspiracy, I just want to survive."

She said sarcastically: "Master Shi is flying through the clouds. The higher you fly, the faster you fall. If you do this, sooner or later everyone in the Shen family will get involved. What else can I do if I don't run?"

"The Shen family?" Shen Yu asked, "Besides me, is there anyone else in the Shen family?"

Shen Yan said: "Whether you admit it or not, my mother is the wife of my father, the matchmaker, and I am the legitimate daughter."

"Then you go down to hell to see if he recognizes dad."

These words were harsh, and Shen Yan stood up angrily, "Don't go too far."

Shen Yu sneered, "You came to me today, could it be that you came to say goodbye, or were you just asking for trouble?"

"I want to sell Shen's house." Shen Yan said.

Shen Yu's eyes narrowed.

"You must already know why I came to you. You are reluctant to let Shen House fall into the hands of others, and you can afford this price."

Shen Yu did not answer the question, but asked, "Have you gone to visit Dad's grave?"

She saw the Ruoxiachun pot in front of the grave and guessed it was Shen Yan.

Shen Yan's eyes moved and she looked away, "You won't even bother me when I go to visit my grave, Master Shi."

"I want the Shen Mansion, please give me a price." Shen Yu said.

Shen Yan didn't expect her to be so happy, so she said, "Thirty thousand taels, this price is just a drop in the bucket to you."

"The cow hair is not given randomly."

Shen Yan was anxious, "If we sell it on the market, Shen's house will sell for 40,000 taels."

Shen Yu pressed her elbow on the armrest and leaned forward, "You also said that the market price is 40,000 taels. Don't forget that I have a share of Shen's house. I won't give you 20,000 taels or even one tael of silver. If you dare to sell it to Others, you can give it a try, I can do anything."

Shen Yan felt that her aura was overwhelming, and she gritted her teeth and remained silent for a long time, her fingernails digging into her palms.

"Tomorrow." She gritted her teeth and said, "Bring money tomorrow and hand over the money in one hand and the house deed in the other."

"I will send someone to your door tomorrow. You'd better not play any tricks." Shen Yu said.

Now that Shen Yu has entered the court as an official, if she is exposed, both she and her mother will be implicated. Now she can only run as far as she can.

Shen Yan snorted and left in a hurry. She tripped over the threshold when she went out. After she stood firm, she raised her eyes and saw Prince Beilin standing in the courtyard.

Immortals are like jade, I'm afraid this is the scene in front of me.

Hearing the sound, Xie Tingzhou turned his head and looked indifferently. His eyes did not stop at Shen Yan, but fell on Shen Yu who was behind her and became softer.

He asked warmly: "Are you done talking?"

"Yeah." Shen Yu walked towards Xie Tingzhou, "What's wrong?"

"Waiting for you to eat." Xie Tingzhou took her hand.

Shen Yan's fingertips trembled slightly, and her gaze almost pierced Shen Yu as she looked at Shen Yu's back.

Why?

How could she, Shen Yu, be so virtuous and capable?

Why do her father, brother, Jiang Lianzhi, and the Crown Prince Beilin in front of her all like and care for her?

She tried, tried to step Shen Yu into the bottom, but she appeared in front of her in another more aggressive posture.

She couldn't fight, this was the answer she got after a hard time.

Shen Yan almost ran away. She staggered to the door, but suddenly stopped.

Shen Yan held the door frame and turned around, "Your Highness."

Xie Tingzhou looked sideways but did not respond.

The smile on Shen Yan's face was malicious, "I'm afraid there's something that Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know yet. My sister's first love affair was with Mr. Jiang from the Ministry of Revenue. She told me that Mr. Jiang's jade trees are beautiful when the wind blows. Admired."

Shen Yu wanted to tear her mouth apart, but as soon as she took a step forward, Xie Tingzhou hugged her.

"Then what should we do?" Xie Tingzhou raised his eyelids.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips, and he said leisurely: "She fascinated me so much. Don't say she is just in love. Even if she has been married, I will snatch her away."

Shen Yan was stunned and stood blankly at the door, "You..."

Xie Tingzhou hugged Shen Yu and turned around calmly, "See you off."

On the way back to Qingpuju, Xie Tingzhou walked faster and faster, and finally let go of Shen Yu and strode forward.

Shen Yu followed closely behind him, wondering what happened to him. When she was almost at the door of Qingpu Residence, she couldn't help but ask.

"What’s wrong with you?"

"What's wrong?" Xie Tingzhou turned around suddenly.

Shen Yu didn't react quickly enough and almost hit him.

Xie Tingzhou narrowed his eyes, "Are you newly in love?"

"No, no." Shen Yu quickly denied.

She thought she didn't care what he said just now, but she didn't expect that there was still this problem waiting for her.

She should have known that whenever Jiang Lianzhi was mentioned, his reaction would be greater than anything else, and Shen Yu would begin to suspect that the person he really liked was actually Jiang Lianzhi, and the reason why he was with her was because he didn't want Jiang Lianzhi to marry.

Xie Tingzhou pressed forward and asked, "Is he a beautiful tree facing the wind?"

Shen Yu shook her head, "No, you are the most talented and beautiful."

Xie Tingzhou snorted coldly, "When did it happen?"

"What?"

"When did you tell Shen Yan that you were attracted to Jiang Lianzhi?"

"I forgot." Shen Yu quickly changed the subject, "I never said that."

In fact, she had long forgotten whether she had said it or not. In her previous life, she married Jiang Lianzhi for several years, so who could remember it so clearly? Anyway, it was best not to admit it at this moment.

Xie Tingzhou knew what was going on as soon as he saw her eyes. He was still angry, pinching her chin and whispering, "Will you tell me or not? If not, I'll kiss you here."

Shen Yu glanced around. There were maids and servants sweeping the yard nearby. She was not so shameless, but she believed that Xie Tingzhou could really do it in a fit of anger.

"I said, I really forgot. It seems that I said he was handsome, but I definitely didn't say that I was in love with him."

She looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to this side. She stood on tiptoe and whispered to Xie Tingzhou: "I am in love with you now."

Xie Tingzhou's hair was instantly calmed by this sentence. He lowered his eyes and looked at her and said: "Stay away from him when you go to court in the future."

Shen Yu said seriously: "I am far away from him, I am a million miles away from him."

At noon, Xie Tingzhou asked Changliu to pass on a message to Zhongbo to move all of Shen Yu's things in Lumingxuan.

After lunch, Shen Yu went back to see that they had almost been moved, but she didn't dare to move the things in the study.

When Shen Yu and Xie Tingzhou stepped into the study of Lumingxuan, they heard that Li Jifeng had come.

As soon as the maid left the study, Li Jifeng stepped in.

"I'll give you a heads-up." Li Jifeng looked around, "Where's the tea?"

"What's the matter?" Xie Tingzhou asked the maid to serve tea.

Li Jifeng glanced at Shen Yu, undecided whether to speak or not.

"Go ahead." Xie Tingzhou said, "Don't hide anything from her."

Li Jifeng nodded, "I just came out of the palace and met someone in front of Chengtian Gate. Guess who it is?"

"Since it's an urgent matter, don't keep it a secret." Xie Tingzhou said slowly.

"Boring." Li Jifeng complained, and then said, "It's Xuanping Hou."

Shen Yu said, "It's nothing strange for Xuanping Hou to enter the palace."

Li Jifeng said, "It's not strange, but the person he brought with him is strange. Are you looking for an old man?"

Xie Tingzhou's eyes were sharp.

Li Jifeng said quickly: "Don't get me wrong, I glanced at a portrait in the study. Although my memory is not very good, I remember the mole on his face very clearly. Xuanping Hou went to the Ministry of Justice, and the old man with the mole on his face followed him. What do you think he was doing in the Ministry of Justice?"
