Chapter 175: The Trick Is Done

Shen Yu persuaded: "Some things are not what you see on the surface. Go back. It's time for you to learn to grow up."

This is how she came here. She herself grew up overnight after her father passed away.

When there is no one left around you, you can only learn to be strong.

This kind of growth is so painful.

"I won't leave." Pei Chunli started crying again and said, "But I'm not here, where should I go? I don't know."

Shen Yu felt sad for a while, "Go back and take a nap. When you wake up, you are thinking about where to go."

She raised her hand and tapped the back of Pei Chunli's neck, then handed the unconscious Pei Chunli to the chamberlain.

He ordered: "Send the young Marquis back to his mansion. If anyone dares to take advantage of the Marquis's loss of power and bully him, let them ask about my sword first."

The chamberlain said: "Yes, Marquis Yu."

After watching the chamberlain send Pei Chunli away, Shen Yu went back to report to Emperor Tongxu.

When she got off duty in the evening, she drove to Lu's shop to see shopkeeper Lu.

"I happened to be looking for Miss, so she came to my door." Shopkeeper Lu said, "Hezhou sent something again. It just arrived yesterday. It's the medicinal materials that Miss was looking for last time."

There were two brocade boxes on the table. Shopkeeper Lu pointed at the brocade boxes and said, "This is Qian Ling Ginseng. It was originally in the warehouse of the old house in Hezhou. This black knot grass was purchased from the barbarians west of Xijue. It has not been seen before." I don’t know if it’s true or not, so I’ll take it with you soon.”

"No need." Shen Yu said: "Send it to the palace in person. Don't tell me that I have been here today. Just say that I have already ordered you to send it to the palace after receiving it."

Shopkeeper Lu didn't ask much: "Okay."

"One more thing." Shen Yu frowned slightly, "I seem to have met my brother."

Shopkeeper Lu was shocked, "Eldest Young Master? Hasn't the Eldest Young Master already..."

Shen Yu said: "I'm not completely sure, I'm 70% to 80% sure, but I can't figure out why he didn't come to me if it was my brother."

"Maybe the eldest young master has other things to do." Shopkeeper Lu said.

Shen Yu touched the box and said, "If you inquire for me, you must do it secretly."

"I know, Miss, please don't worry."

"If you find him, tell him I want to see him."

She thought of the jug of wine in front of her father's grave. She originally thought that Shen Yan had gone to visit the grave. Looking back now, Shen Yan's reaction at that time was indeed a bit unusual, but she didn't think about her brother at that time.

Shen Yu secretly returned to Shen's mansion again.

The house deeds have been cleared, and many of the servants in the house have been dismissed, making it much easier to get in and out.

Shen Yu returned disappointed. She actually knew in her heart that her brother would not return to Shen's house, but she still wanted to try her luck.

She hurried back to the palace before the keys were locked, and went to the check-in room to rest.

"Yuhou." "Yuhou."

The guards all saluted.

Shen Yu nodded in greeting and closed the door after entering the room.

The moment she closed the door, she noticed something was wrong. She was about to take action, but she fell silent again in the familiar atmosphere.

A figure approached in the darkness, and the faint pine scent became a little stronger.

"So careless." Xie Tingzhou stepped forward and said, "What if he is a bad guy?"

"Aren't you bad?" Shen Yu looked up at him. It was too dark in the room and there were no lights on. Only the scorching eyes fell on her face as if they had substance.

"The prince is not good enough to you? You are so greedy." Xie Tingzhou scolded her and trapped her by the door, "How did you know it was me?"

"I smell it."

Xie Tingzhou smiled and said, "Dog nose."

Shen Yu asked: "Why are you here?"

"I still want to ask you." Xie Tingzhou said, "I've been waiting for you for an hour, where did you go?"

Shen Yu did not answer directly and said, "I am on duty in front of the emperor and have many errands."

Xie Tingzhou felt that the room was too dark for him to see her face clearly. He Xie Tingzhou had to keep her by his side all the time to feel comfortable. I wonder if I can take a few glances.

"Don't light the lamp." Shen Yu noticed his intention and called out to him, "If there is a shadow, you can see it outside."

Xie Tingzhou held her forehead in this posture, "It's really difficult to see you now. If I don't go to court, I won't be able to see you even once in three to five days."

He was too close, and Shen Yu quietly moved her injured left arm to the side.

Shen Yu said: "After these few days of busy work, you can-"

Xie Tingzhou blocked her lips and held the last few words of that sentence between his lips.

The hand on her waist tightened, causing her to tremble.

Xie Tingzhou whispered: "When I went to court, I saw you wearing court clothes. I wanted to kiss you right then, but it's a pity that I can't see or touch you. It's a waste of time."

Shen Yu was scalded by her breath. She tilted her face slightly and panted, "You were so arrogant in Chao Shang today."

"Then what can we do?" Xie Tingzhou's eyes were a little dangerous, "You want to draw a clear line with me in front of others. The more we don't interact with each other, the less likely they will believe it. Don't you have to do all the tricks first? Besides, I thank you In their eyes, Ting Zhou is a libertine, and if he is sent to Emperor Tongxu to impeach me, there will be only a few more tricks, so what are you afraid of?"

Shen Yu said: "Usual impeachment is just to say that you are not doing your job properly and behave wildly. If you are really impeached for forming a party for personal gain, the problem will be huge."

"I don't care." Xie Tingzhou looked at her, "If the day comes, why don't I just prove the crime."

Shen Yu immediately covered his mouth and said, "Stop talking."

"I heard you."

Shen Yu nudged his chest and said, "Stay away from me."

"What's wrong?" Xie Tingzhou didn't move.

"too hot."

"Is it hot?" Xie Tingzhou turned his head and rubbed along her forehead, rubbing some thin sweat.

"Why is it hot?" He said seductively, "Is it the body or the heart?"

"Xie Tingzhou." Shen Yu warned.

Xie Tingzhou also felt hot, and the clothes were thinner in summer. The waist under his hand was not even slender, making people reluctant to let go.

"How did you get in tonight?" Shen Yu asked.

Xie Tingzhou let her go, "You came in so arrogantly, who dares to stop me?"

"You..." Shen Yu really didn't know what to say to him, so she could only pour a cup of cold tea and drink it.

"It's not good to be too quiet." Xie Tingzhou said.

After speaking, he suddenly held her waist and turned her around, and lifted her to the table.

With a clang, the teacup on the table was swept to the ground by him, which was particularly obvious at night.

Shen Yu kicked him silently and listened to the footsteps approaching.

The guard knocked on the door outside: "Yu Hou, is there something wrong?"

"Get lost!" Xie Tingzhou said to the door with his head tilted.

He turned to stare at Shen Yu and whispered: "They all saw me coming in to wait for you. If we don't make some noise, the morning show will be in vain."

Shen Yu pinched his waist, "You are looking for trouble."

"I miss you." Xie Tingzhou murmured: "What can I do?"

He leaned over to remind her, "If you don't resist, people outside will think you agree, Ayu, you asked to perform the show, you have to show some attitude of breaking up."
