After returning from the Marquis' Mansion, Shen Junxiao had not left his house, and Second Master Shen had also learned of Li Qingzhao's achievement.
Li Qingzhao moved Liu because of a proposal, making the opportunity missed.
Plan?
In his memory, Li Qingzhao's theory was not that outstanding. In his previous life, he was only able to win because of his eight breakthroughs. The others were just average.
Today, he had actually gotten the attention of Liu Yun because of a theory.
Liu Yun had been a person who had dominated the government for dozens of years. What kind of theory could make him stand out?
Shen Jun smiled as he felt that something was amiss.
Second Master Shen saw that his brother was deep in thought and felt it was a little strange. He didn't know why, but he had assumed that his brother was facing an opponent. So he explained: "I don't think you need to worry too much. This Li Qingzhao is from the capital, and he is from a different area than you are when it's time to meet. It's not too late to look at his grades first and ask questions later. I read half of your theory that day, and it was also amazing. "
"It's actually called Second Brother seeing a clumsy work." Shen Jun said modestly as he restrained his smile.
"You're just too modest and have a disposition that doesn't care about anything. Otherwise, if Second Brother takes you on a few trips, your chances of meeting Li Qingzhao might be several times better than that."
"Those are all empty words. I, your brother, am not good at dealing with those kinds of situations. Second brother, don't trouble yourself too much."
Second Master Shen knew what character his brother had, so he did not try to persuade him any further. The two of them ate dinner together before leaving.
Stepping in the dim moonlight, Shen smiled as he walked along the path back to his own yard, lost in thought.
The last time he met Li Qinghao, he was still as cautious as he was in his memories. He didn't even dare to raise his head when his elder brother lectured him, yet he turned around and became an influential figure in the capital.
Things were really unpredictable.
It wasn't that he was afraid of Li Qingzhao. It was just that he had betrayed a little girl in his previous life and knew that Li Qingzhao's heart was dark, and he hated him for that. Even though Li Qinghao had been personally killed by him in his previous life, that hatred was still difficult to vent out.
No matter how much Li Qingzhao became a disciple of Liu, since he had replaced Ying Zhengxin, he had to bear the responsibility of believing that Liu Yunzhi would succeed. Alright, there's no need for him to do anything.
In this life, he only needed to properly protect the little girl and prevent this beast from appearing by her side again.
Everything in the capital went according to Shen Junxiao's plan. He felt slightly more relaxed and spent the rest of the time writing and painting in his room. Fourth Treasure was rather busy as he was ordered to run around the inner and outer residences.
Yongping Mansion, Shen family.
Xiu Ying was sitting in the small study, writing. Beside her was a square box made of nanmu wood, which was filled to the brim with a stack of papers. After concentrating on drawing out another large character, the little girl carefully blew the ink dry and put it into the box. He then carefully closed the box.
After doing all this, Xiu Ying rested her chin on her hands as she stared blankly at the empty table.
Five a day. Nearly two hundred now. Why hasn't her third uncle returned yet?
As the little girl thought of this, she began to crack her fingers on the table. The sun came in from the casket and fell on her face and on her long eyelashes, and every time she blinked the sun shone in her eyes.
Flowing light and overflowing color.
Yue'er and Zhi`er were already used to the young mistress being stunned every time they finished their homework, but every time they would still be amazed by the young lady bathed in sunlight. At this moment, the two of them would think that their young mistress was so exquisite, she must be even more beautiful when she grew up.
I wonder which young master has such luck with women.
The daydreaming Xiu Ying didn't know what her little girl was thinking. She only felt that it was hard to wait day after day like this. It was as if she had never experienced such a feeling before.
Xiu Ying sighed as she thought about it. She stood up and prepared to go find her mother. In a while, she would go to the main courtyard to pay respects.
As usual, Madam Feng carried Xiang'er in her arms and led her daughter to the Kang Ning courtyard. As soon as they arrived, they saw Mama Qi rushing out with a bunch of little girls. Seeing that Madam Feng and her group had paid their respects and had something important to do, Mama Qi left in a hurry.
Xiu Ying looked on weirdly. Madam Feng also became suspicious and quickly walked into the courtyard.
The garden was green with trees and flowers that bloomed under the porch. The summer wind blew by, bringing with it a delicate fragrance.
Madam You had long since arrived with her children. She was standing by the veranda, and when she saw Madam Feng bow towards her, she quickly whispered, "Madam, something happened to Aunt Cui."
When Lady Feng heard this, she glanced toward the hall and vaguely saw a petite figure. Her face turned cold as she nodded at the old woman and stepped inside.
Xiu Ying also heard the name Aunt Cui vaguely, and saw Shen Lian in the middle of the room. She was wearing a light green dress, and she looked much lighter. Her eyes were red, and I stood by her side in pity. The old man looked anxious, but he still tried to comfort her from time to time.
In this situation, Xiu Ying's first thought was that there was a trick.
Did Aunt Cui and her daughter get into some kind of trouble again?!
When the mother and daughter paid their respects to the old man, Mrs. Shen's face was still anxious. Although the words she wrote to the mother and daughter were faint, there was no sign of anger or uneasiness.
Xiu Ying found this even more strange.
Eunuch lowered his head and tried to warn his sister-in-law, but he couldn't say it out loud.
Shen Lian immediately knelt down towards the Feng family and kowtowed twice.
"Mother, my aunt is sick! She's coughing up blood!" I hope mother can let father take a look. "
Aunt Cui is sick?!
Xiu Ying raised her eyebrows and looked at her mother, who was looking at her with probing eyes. She sneered. "Since I'm sick, I'll naturally ask my husband to help. Since when did father know the art of the female?"
"Big sister is right, but auntie's illness is so serious. If father goes to visit her, maybe he can comfort her a little …"
"Aunt Cui is already coughing up blood. Who knows what kind of illness or infection it might be?" Aunt Cui's body is just a body, but so is Father's? "
Xiu Ying did not retreat. From Shen Lian's words, she knew that she was going to sell some meat. She was sure that once her father left, Aunt Cui's tail would fly into the sky the next day.
He could still clearly remember how arrogant and ruthless Aunt Cui had been in the past. Now, she was going to play the part of a lover, and he would have to see if she would accept it!
Sure enough, Shen Lian choked. Even Old Lady Shen, who wanted to help her, hesitated.
In her eyes, the most important person was her son. Her eldest granddaughter was right, in case the cough was consumption!
Old Madam Shen's heart raced when she thought of this.
Xiu Ying had been holding back her desire to go back to the lake. Seeing that the Cui Family's mother and daughter were going to become demons again, although she didn't know what they were going to do, her plan to take control of the people first was definitely correct. Then, she added, "I don't think it's good for Aunt Cui to go over there. It's also not good for Second Sister to go back to the courtyard and stay …"
"That's what I meant too." Madam Feng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up, and looked at Shen Lian indifferently, "Miss is getting older, it's not good to always be by Aunt's side, outsiders might not know, but they might think that it's because my first wife doesn't want to teach me, so it's not good to say that I'm afraid. I'll get someone to tidy up another small yard at the side of the Jia Xin Yuan area. You can stay there from now on, but Aunt Cui doesn't need to go back. "
When Madame Feng's words fell, the entire hall instantly became so quiet that even a pin dropping could be heard.
The corner of Xiu Ying's lips curved up. Her mother would definitely strangle her for good if she were to make a move.
