"Is that so? Is this true? "
Yan Xiao thoughtfully lifted the teacup in front of him and brought it to the corner of his mouth, covering the guilt in his eyes.
He had to reward Luo Xiong and the others when he returned back.
"Luo Xiong s": We must have followed a fake pavilion master.
"En, it's true. Those few families have even taken a detour when they saw me."
Shen Qin didn't notice that the corner of Yan Xiao's eyes had a hint of a gloating smile, and she seriously nodded towards him.
"Cough, cough …"
Yan Xiao put down the cup, placed the back of his hand on his lips and coughed twice. Then, he said in a serious tone, "This is nothing much, just like what I said just now, they aren't good companions of yours. You're still young, don't worry, just slowly search for them."
Shen Qin bit her lower lip, looked at Yan Xiao with an extremely sincere gaze, and said: "Pavilion Master, this subordinate is not young anymore, and is actually unable to get married at this age."
Yan Xiao could not help but frown, and blurted out: "If you can't get married, marry this king!"
"Huh?"
Shen Qin was stunned, her eyes filled with shock and astonishment. She could not believe what she saw and stared at Yan Xiao's serious face, but because she was scared by Yan Xiao's words, she did not notice that Yan Xiao's ears had instantly turned red.
Yan Xiao had probably never been this nervous in his life before. The words that came out of his mouth was a little unexpected, so he picked up the teacup and drank a mouthful of tea, wanting to calm himself down.
But because he was too nervous, when he put down the teacup, he used too much force, causing Shen Qin to be shocked, but he still stared at him.
"This... This King means that you won't be able to get married, so what's the point in worrying so much? "
"Oh."
Shen Qin nodded. At the same time that she heaved a sigh of relief, she also conveniently hid the disappointment in her eyes.
She had said that how could the Pavilion Master possibly say something like 'I'll marry you'? The Pavilion Master's meaning was most likely exactly as he had said; how could she not marry him?
Although she was already over 20 years old, she was still the daughter of the richest man in the world.
In order to comfort her, the pavilion master had done her best.
Shen Qin muttered in his heart, and the wild heartbeat in his heart started to calm down bit by bit.
After a long while, she once again raised her head, gave Yan Xiao a relaxed smile, and said: "Pavilion Master, you are right. This kind of thing can be done slowly.
Hearing Shen Qin's words, Yan Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. Only now did he realize that his palm was actually covered in sweat.
Without waiting for him to completely calm down, Shen Qin's extremely choked and sincere words came over, "These past two days, Father had found me a few suitable rooms, I think we won't be as unlucky as before, right?"
She giggled with a sincere look on her face, angering Yan Xiao to the point that his teeth hurt.
Why didn't she let him worry so much?
"Humph!" Master Shen has been rather free recently. "
Yan Xiao's tone was a bit off, why didn't he realize that his future father-in-law would be such a headache?
Shen Qin did not notice the displeasure in Yan Xiao's words, and followed what he said: "That's right, there are a few shopkeepers who have followed my father for dozens of years who handle the Shen Family's business, my father is currently only busy with the matters of my marriage."
The people of Easternum were open-minded, and the matter of marriage that the woman mentioned was not something that people despised. As a result, Shen Qin did not hide anything in front of Yan Xiao, her master.
But this made Yan Xiao's head hurt even more.
He pinched the space between his eyebrows and rubbed his temples. It seemed that he needed to find a way to block the source of the energy.
My father-in-law is very free, isn't he? Then he would keep him busy.
A few days later, the imperial government received an urgent report. A flood had struck Yizhou, and more than a hundred people had died.
After leaving the imperial court, Yan Xiao and his two princes and a few inner court ministers stayed behind to discuss things in the royal study.
After discussing for a while, Yan Yuan opened his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, right now, the hearts of the people of Yizhou are in chaos.
The imperial government had expended a lot of manpower and financial resources, but right now, they were not in the mood to deal with those small countries. Naturally, Yan Yuan's worries were well-founded.
"Then according to royal uncle's opinion?"
"This subject shall first rush to the Yizhou to pacify the people. After that, the Ministry of Revenue will prepare food for the calamities to be sent to the affected area."
"We'll do as Ninth Imperial Uncle says."
Yan Shuo nodded his head in agreement. Then, he turned to Prime Minister Wang Shi and said: "The several ministers have discussed and come up with a candidate to escort the relief food, we will decide on that."
"Yes."
After exiting the palace, Yan Yuan looked at Yan Xiao, his thick eyebrows slightly knitted, "It's the Yizhou again."
It wasn't necessarily a coincidence when suspicious areas appeared twice during the same period of time.
You can go to Yizhou without arousing suspicion. Once you reach there, you can secretly investigate any suspicious areas. If there is anything you need help with, get someone to send me a letter. "
After the two brothers parted ways, Yan Yuan returned back to King Jing Palace in a hurry and prepared to leave the capital.
"You want to go to Yizhou?"
"Yeah, there's suddenly water in Yizhou, and over a hundred people have already drowned. I will go over first to pacify the citizens there, and then secretly investigate the situation in Yizhou."
Hearing Yan Yuan's words, Liu Ruo Qing frowned, thinking to herself, "Why would there be a flood at this season?"
It was only April, not the flood season at all.
"This is also something that I suspect, so I must personally go and take a look."
Yan Yuan squinted his eyes, the look in his eyes was somewhat thought-provoking, "This Yizhou … I'm afraid it's not that simple. "
With just a simple sentence, Liu Ruo Qing instantly felt that her emotions had become depressed.
If the mastermind was really in Yizhou, Yan Yuan would be in great danger.
After thinking about it, she looked at Yan Yuan and said, "I want to go with you."
"No way!"
Yan Yuan rejected him without even thinking, "There is an untreated flood, after the death of so many people, there must be a plague, it's too dangerous for you to get there."
There was no room for discussion this time.
Let alone a flood, the background of this Yizhou was not that simple. Right now, he had no clues, how could he bring her along for an adventure.
"Qing Er, wait for me at home obediently. Once the Yizhou's matters are settled, I'll take you there to have some fun, okay?"
Seeing that Liu Ruo Qing's face revealed a look of loss, Yan Yuan could not bear it anymore and tried to advise him softly.
But Liu Ruo Qing looked at him with determination, "Not good! It's because I know that the Yizhou is dangerous, I don't want you to go alone. I can't wait for you to come back and wait for news like this in the capital. "
"Qing Er..."
Yan Yuan still wanted to say something, but Liu Ruo Qing raised her hand and covered her mouth, her expression a little guilty, "I know that my martial arts are all wasted, so if I follow you there, it might implicate you. But, I really don't want you to go over alone."
