Treating the Concubine, Eliminating the Wife: Reborn, I Refuse to Marry the Scumbag and Marry the Pr
Chapter 52 Disappointment
Shen Yu didn't dare to move and moved her eyes to look.
The bookshelf on the wall moved away, and a small door appeared. There was a faint yellow light inside the small door.
The light became brighter and brighter, and then Shen Yu heard footsteps.
She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she just lamented that she was so unlucky, and she didn't know whether it would be better to be directly killed by the black panther, or to fall into Xie Tingzhou's hands.
She watched Xie Tingzhou slowly approach, not even giving her a look on the ground when he walked out of the secret door.
He must have just taken a shower, and his body was still steaming.
Wearing a moon-white robe with wide sleeves, it was draped loosely around him. He raised his hand to light a candle and slid down the sleeves, revealing a cold white arm.
Xie Tingzhou shook off the fire stick and walked slowly to her and knelt down to look at her.
Shen Yu adhered to the principle that if the enemy does not move, I will not move; if the enemy moves, I will move randomly, and waited for Xie Tingzhou to speak first.
"What do you want to steal?" Xie Tingzhou asked.
"I didn't want to steal anything." Shen Yu had no confidence.
Xie Tingzhou's eyes were stern, "I warned you, Shigure."
Shen Yu said nervously: "I just want to read the letter about the Yanliangguan case."
Xie Tingzhou glanced at the two piles of military affairs and staff letters that remained untouched. The letters that Xi Feng had put in at noon were scattered on the ground. One of them had been pulled out before he had time to read it.
"Want to know?" Twisting the letter with two slender fingers, Xie Tingzhou scanned it ten lines at a time, slowly leaned over, and his shadow pressed on Shen Yu's body, as if it had substance.
"I'll read it to you."
The semi-wet hair fell from her shoulders, and a drop of water hit Shen Yu's eyebrows.
She was so stimulated by the coldness that she shivered, which was followed by a low warning from the black panther's throat.
Xie Tingzhou touched her eyebrows with his fingertips, and his voice was so soft that he almost sighed, "What a disappointment."
His hand did not leave, but tapped her eyebrows twice.
"Cang."
Xie Tingzhou shouted, and the Black Panther immediately retracted its front paws and took a few steps back, still arching its back in a defensive posture.
Shen Yu didn't dare to get up, she was still lying on the ground looking at him.
"Let's take a look." Xie Tingzhou said.
The page fell lightly on her face. She sat up and read it under the lamp.
Accompanied by Xie Tingzhou's voice, "You stole such a large amount of money in Pingtan County, but no one reported it to the official. Let me guess, it's the businessmen in Pingtan County who are the richest in the world. Thousands of taels of silver are against them." It’s just a drop in the bucket.”
"Or," he paused, "are you simply lying?!"
Shen Yu happened to finish reading the letter. This was not a letter about the Yanliangguan case at all, but a reply from him who sent someone to investigate her. It was exactly what the letter said.
Shen Yu pursed her lips, not daring to look at Xie Tingzhou.
Xie Tingzhou sat down on the chair behind the desk, "Do you have anything else to say?"
After a long while, Shen Yu finally said, "Yes."
She raised her head and looked, "I have never wanted to harm you, nor have I ever wanted to do anything detrimental to you. I have just been with you all the way. For people like us, it is too early to talk about trust. You and I both No need to say anything disappointing.”
For some reason, she felt a little sad.
She didn't know whether it was because she didn't see what she wanted to see, or whether she felt sad that he had set up such a trap.
Xie Tingzhou tightened his lips and closed his eyes, "Here comes someone."
The light outside the door suddenly turned on, and Xi Feng and Chang Liu appeared at the door.
Xie Tingzhou closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, "Take him down."
The guards immediately came in and tried to pull her up from the ground.
"I'll go by myself." Shen Yu said, getting up and following the guards out.
Tonight, the sky above Qingpuju seemed to be covered with a layer of dense clouds, which was extremely oppressive.
Cang seemed to feel his master's emotions and lay motionless in the corner of the study. Hai Dongqing under the eaves combed his wings and rested there as well.
After taking the people into the dungeon, Xi Feng and Chang Liu came back to resume their lives.
"Your Highness," Xifeng said while standing at the door, "Shigure has been taken into the dungeon."
Xie Tingzhou stared at the letter on the table.
Indeed, as Shi Yu said, he only cared about the Yanliangguan case. The military secret letter was more important than the Yanliangguan case, but he did not touch it.
"Did he resist?" Xie Tingzhou asked.
Xi Feng reported truthfully: "No, neither shackled nor shackled, he walked into the dungeon by himself."
Xie Tingzhou breathed out.
With Shigure's skill, although he couldn't escape intact, it was possible to escape with all his strength, but he didn't run.
Was he determined that he wouldn't kill him, or...
Chang Liu heard that there was no sound inside, and pointed outside, asking Xi Feng to follow him.
The two of them walked a little further away from the study.
Changliu asked: "What do you mean by Your Highness? I heard that on New Year's Eve, he and Shigure ate noodles in the kitchen. Shigure made them, and later His Highness sent him back to Lumingxuan."
Xi Feng leaned against the wall for a while, then changed to leaning against the pillar when he felt cold, "How do I know?"
"Then haven't you spent a lot of time with His Highness?"
"Aren't you tall?" Xifeng asked back.
"Is it okay that I'm two years behind you?" Changliu said to himself, "I always feel that his treatment of Shigure is a bit special, but I don't think His Highness is someone who would follow the path of a cut sleeve."
Xi Feng suddenly slid against the pillar.
Changliu saw the clues and asked cautiously: "No way? What happened that I don't know about?"
Xi Feng felt uncomfortable holding back these days, and he couldn't see clearly what Xie Tingzhou was thinking, so he simply told Chang Liu to come up with ideas.
After Changliu heard this, he was so shocked that he didn't speak for a long time. After a while, he said: "It's over, it's over, isn't the Beilin Palace going to be extinct? Hey! Why are you beating me?"
Xifeng slapped him on the back of the head, "This is groundless, what are you talking about?"
Changliu rubbed his head, "Did His Highness deny it at that time?"
Xi Feng: "No."
"Isn't that enough?" Changliu turned around a few times, "Let's make a bet. I bet that His Highness will let him out in a few days, but you bet not to let him go."
"I bet you will let it go too."
Changliu rolled his eyes, "Who told me just now that it was groundless?"
Xi Feng: "..."
…
A guest came to Beilin Palace today.
It is Li Jifeng, the ninth son of the current emperor.
Xie Tingzhou had many fair-weather friends in Beilin, but not many in Shengjing. Li Jifeng was considered the number one person.
The two met in spring of that year.
The enemy of his enemy is his friend. Li Jifeng was very tired of Liu Yu, the young master of Liu Cheng's family who was the second assistant in the cabinet. However, the royal control was too strict. Although he was a prince, he could not find the opportunity to punish the rogue.
But Xie Tingzhou was different. As the prince of Beilin, even the royal family had to give him three points.
Ever since Xie Tingzhou kicked Liu Yu off his horse and broke his leg that year, Li Jifeng almost regarded him as a confidant. When Xie Tingzhou was in Beijing, he was as sticky as brown candy.
The warmth in the Nuan Pavilion is like spring, and the rockery and flowing water outside the window are gurgling.
Li Jifeng was so hot that he took off his outer robe and leaned on the couch to play chess with Xie Tingzhou.
Today, Xie Tingzhou's chess moves were full of murderous intent, causing Li Jifeng to retreat steadily.
Li Jifeng scratched his head and fell for a while. Seeing Xie Tingzhou about to fall, he quickly blocked it, "Don't be so cruel. I only came a few days late and you are so depressed. You act like me and that heartless man. You I don’t know how busy I am these days, I..."
"Let go." Xie Tingzhou said coldly.
Li Jifeng let go with a "tsk", "You're celebrating the New Year, why are you so murderous?"
