Chapter 204 Red Sleeves Add Fragrance
The door of the house was closed by Chujiu.
Lord Wei seemed to have not noticed Liu Su and Gu Mingzhu, and was still doing what he was doing.
Gu Mingzhu stood there not far away. Lord Wei was in a good mood, which was very different from being in Taiyuan Prefecture. He always had a cold face in Taiyuan Prefecture, treating people indifferently and alienatedly, just like the pond of water that was unfathomable. Although it was very powerful, it was too lonely.
Now it was like his clothes, a little brighter. Thinking of this, Gu Mingzhu looked over again through Saluo, and Lord Wei's figure was also hazy, like a painting that could be passed down from generation to generation.
"Sir," Liu Su bowed, "I don't know if there is any news from Nie Chen."
Wei Yuanchen looked up and saw Gu Mingzhu standing behind Liu Su. After seeing him, she still wanted to hide behind, for fear that he would see her.
"Go and pour tea." Wei Yuanchen did not mention Nie Chen directly, but instead spoke instructors.
There were no one else in the room except the three of them. In addition, Liu Su was the servant beside Wei Yuanchen before. When he heard this, Liu Su subconsciously walked over to serve the teacup. However, he immediately thought of Miss Gu being by his side, and Liu Su immediately turned to see the lady.
Gu Mingzhu nodded, and then Liu Su stepped forward and held the teacup in his hand. The teacup was empty, and he didn't know how the servants in the yard served him. He hoped that there would be hot water in the kitchen behind him.
Liu Su walked out of the house and went to the kitchen all the way. Only then did he realize that what he was thinking was too simple. It was not a question of whether there was hot water or not. The kitchen did not even have a fire.
Clear the pot and cold stove, how did you live this day? Liu Su turned his head and saw several guards standing in the yard. The third master was busy in the room. These people had hands and feet and didn't know how to work. Could it be that they were waiting for him to do it?
Liu Su walked out of the house, Gu Mingzhu stood in the darkness and quietly looked at Lord Wei. Lord Wei picked up the letter placed next to him and opened it to check it carefully. He didn't know what he saw, but his originally stretched eyebrows and eyes slowly frowned.
The lights on the table jumped.
Wei Yuanchen said again: "Cut the lamp flowers."
Is this to let her go? Gu Mingzhu reached out to sort out Mili and Saluo on her head. She could take advantage of the opportunity to cut the lamp to see the letter on the table.
Gu Mingzhu slowly walked to the lamp, but found that the scissors were right next to Lord Wei. She put one hand on the sleeve and the other hand on the scissors, but at this time her arm accidentally touched Lord Wei's shoulder.
Gu Mingzhu immediately turned her head to look. She was owing her body. Lord Wei was sitting on the chair. The heights of the two were almost the same at this time. When she turned her head a little, what caught her eye was Lord Wei's fine skin, towering nose bridge, and black jade-like eyes.
A faint smell of soap beads was wrapped in a scent similar to rosin. This feeling was strange and strange, and Gu Mingzhu couldn't help but take a step back.
After a while, Gu Mingzhu blinked. She had always been quick-witted and had just figured out why Lord Wei was far away from her, so why did she bump into him? Suddenly, when she was in Jinta Temple, she climbed on Lord Wei's clothes and pushed away by him in disgust.
Could it be that Mr. Wei’s rebellious scale was touched? She came tonight to ask Mr. Shen about the news and could not return without success at this time.
Seeing her take a step back and concentrate on picking up the scissors to deal with the wick in front of her, Wei Yuanchen realized that the paper in his hand had been wrinkled by him, and there was a hot stream on his chest. He wanted to pick up the tea and take a sip, but remembered that the tea cup had been taken down by Liu Su. There was no fire in the kitchen, only wet wood. Liu Su had to work hard for a while before he could take the tea.
After a moment of silence, Wei Yuanchen turned his head and saw her looking at the light carefully, and her figure gathered in the halo.
As he was so close, he looked at her every move, but he became more and more dazed, unable to believe that the person he lost could return to him.
When she was in the Gu family, she should have known his identity after seeing his wounds, but she has been so careful about hiding herself. What should he do to win her trust? When will she not have to look at her through these veils?
Gu Mingzhu put the lampshade back on and raised her eyes again. Lord Wei was still sitting there motionless, as if he was thinking something, so Gu Mingzhu moved her eyes to the document.
It was indeed a message sent by Nie Chen, and the letter mentioned Mr. Shen’s situation.
After Mr. Shen arrived at Zhending, he hid and found a corpse near Mr. Shen hiding a few days ago.
There was also a document for the autopsy at the government office behind, but it was blocked by Lord Wei's sleeve and could not see clearly.
"Big...sir..."
A stuttering voice came. Although it was covered, it finally opened its mouth. Wei Yuanchen calmed down the thoughts in his eyes so as not to scare her away.
Gu Mingzhu said: "Mr. Shen... Could it be that someone was silenced?"
"It's not him," Wei Yuanchen moved his sleeve away, "The autopsy document said that the man's face was destroyed. If it were Mr. Shen, there was no need to do so. The prince trusted his aides and was subject to Lin Sizhen. Regardless of whether this aide colluded with Lin Sizhen, he would definitely die.
Mr. Shin's death is only good for those behind the scenes, so why bother to cover up his face?”
Gu Mingzhu nodded. This was a game set by Mr. Shen to escape, but Mr. Shen must have his intention to go to the real setting.
Gu Mingzhu said: "Where is the place where the body was discovered? Is there... what mystery?"
"Do you know Chief Superintendent Shen?" Wei Yuanchen said lightly.
Gu Mingzhu was stunned when she heard this name. Shen Shoufu recommended her father to the East Palace and was kind to him. However, Shen Shoufu retired a few years after his father passed away and died in the clan at the age of 66.
The ancestral home of Shoufu Shin seems to be true.
So Mr. Shen is related to the Shen clan?
She shrank her hands and stood quietly aside, obviously thinking about something related to Shen Shou Guard. Shen Shou Guard often praised Ru Jun's father's talent in front of others. Ru Jun could hear some news about Shen's family in the Zhou family. With a slight reminder, she should be able to know that Shen's family is really settled.
Gu Mingzhu said: "Where the place where the body was found... is it very close to the Shen clan?"
She knew indeed that Wei Yuanchen pursed his lips slightly, suppressing the smile that almost came up: "Not only that, Mr. Shen has also met the Shen clan. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't be sure of the relationship between Mr. Shen and the Shen clan. Mr. Shen was not from the Shen clan, but studied in the Shen clan and later changed his surname to Shen. Before going to the East Palace, he had done things in the Shen clan's mansion."
If Mr. Shin is really related to Shin Shou Guard, then when his father went to the East Palace, someone deliberately arranged it?
Wei Yuanchen continued: "In the tribe of the Shen family, in Zhending, in addition to the children of the tribe, they can go to school. If the children of the surrounding county governments are qualified, they can go to the Shen family to study after passing the teacher's exam. The Shen family not only exempts children from the children's training, but also provides two meals a day."
Gu Mingzhu knew this, and her father also went to the Shen clan to help test the children. Shen Shougong's move was to help more people learn to read and study, so as not to be buried in the talented children because of their poverty.
This is a good thing, but... it is also a good way to win people's hearts.
Wei Yuanchen picked up the pen: "I'm going to ask someone to ask how many children of different surnames have been recruited by the Shen family."
The pen has not fallen yet.
