Chapter 146: Unexpected tricks
My heart sends my lover to Fengque,
My eyes followed the sun and the wild geese rose into the misty sky.
Xuanyuan does not value unknown guests,
You can also visit loneliness here.
After a moment of lust, He Shaobai developed feelings for Si Gege that he couldn't let go of. His beloved wife at home was as good as Si Gege in appearance, character, and knowledge. Why did he never miss her after being away from home for two years?
I used to like Zhong Yishi to the core, and even dreamed about it several times, but now my enthusiasm has gradually cooled down.
Why can't a widow be spared?
He Shaobai couldn't figure out the reason. He didn't know whether he was infatuated with Si Gege's warm and soft body, or he was infatuated with her lovely tearful eyes.
It would be great to snatch her out of the palace.
Some things are unsolvable. He Shaobai shook his head, as if to shake off the dream hovering above his head.
It was getting late, Prince Su entered the mansion, and Shen Tong came out. He knew that He Shaobai was guarding him in the alley, so he turned around and walked towards the back of Prince Su's mansion.
He Shaobai looked at his back and rushed out of the alley to chase after him. Shen Tong ran in front and He Shaobai chased behind. Neither of them said a word. After passing through several alleys, He Shaobai shouted: "Shen Tong" Uncle, don't run away, I won't eat you."
Shen Tong still ignored him and disappeared at the intersection of a busy street. There were shops everywhere, selling snacks, dried fruits, offerings, lamps and candles... The sounds of hawking came and went, and buyers came and went. , Shen Tong was familiar with this area, but He Shaobai was not. After searching for a long time, he could not be found.
He Shaobai went to Shen Tong's home again to look for him. He didn't come home until midnight, so he had to return in despair.
Zhong Yishi saw something wrong with his expression and guessed that things were not going well, so he said, "Master Shen doesn't agree?"
He Shaobai smiled bitterly: "He is avoiding me."
Chen Yunyan sneered: "Give me something shameless!"
"We can't delay any longer. It would be terrible if he writes back to Chen Shouzhi." Zhong Yishi said.
Chen Yunyan asked He Shaobai to take him to Shen Tong's home. Zhong Yishi understood his intention and did not stop him. He Shaobai said: "It's useless, he won't go home."
At Chen Yunyan's insistence, He Shaobai had no choice but to take him there, and Lu Xiangta also followed.
Returning to the door of Shen's house, He Shaobai went up to knock on the door, and Chen Yunyan said: "Master He, please go back. It's inconvenient for you to be here. I have a way to ask him to come out."
He Shaobai was tired after running all day. Seeing that Chen Yunyan was confident, he told him "don't be reckless" and returned to Lu's house to wait for the news.
Chen Yunyan asked Lu Xiangta to buy a large bucket of rapeseed oil, tinder and other items, then went into Shen's house, poured oil on the door of the house, lit a fire, and stood in the yard to watch.
Shen Tong's wife and children were all in the house. When they saw the fire, they hurriedly ran out. Chen Yunyan opened the door and said, "Master Shen has bought a new house for you. I will take you to take a look."
Shen's wife knew that her husband, as a head catcher, must have offended many people, and the person in front of her must be an enemy. Knowing that she could not escape, she did not cry or make a fuss, gathered her family and followed behind Chen Yunyan.
Chen Yunyan couldn't help but admire this woman. Her house was set on fire, but she could be so calm. She didn't care about her belongings or where she was going.
Shen Tong hid in a friend's house and planned to go home late at night. There was a fire not far from his house. He and his friend went out to watch the fire. They saw that the fire was near their home. He walked out the door and soon arrived at the door of his house.
The fire had burned the house down to its skeleton. Shen Tong suddenly thought of the recent arson case, and couldn't help but feel horrified and said in pain: "My family's lives are at risk!"
The friends who were chasing after him called to put out the fire, and the neighbors helped put out the fire. Shen Tong went into the ruins to search and saw that there were no bodies of his family members. He calmed down, thanked everyone, and turned around to look for He Shaobai.
He didn't know that Lu Xiangta's family was wandering around the city like a headless fly. He didn't see anyone until dawn.
Shen Tong came to Prince Su's Mansion listlessly, and the housekeeper came over to express condolences: "My lord, I heard that there was a flood in your house last night. Isn't anyone worried?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Everything is fine. It turned out to be a child playing with fire and accidentally lit the tent on fire."
"The prince said you don't need to be on duty today. You can go back and take care of your family affairs."
Shen Tong thanked him again and was about to take a rest in the concierge before looking for He Shaobai. At this time, someone sent a letter with only eight words on it: "Keep him as a promise, and return him as a family."
Shen Tong scolded: "Your surname is He, I swear that I will not be in conflict with you."
Hate returned to hate, but his family was in the hands of He Shaobai, so he could only compromise, recover the letter he had sent to Chen Shouzhi, and go to see He Shaobai.
He Shaobai returned to Lu Xiangta's house last night and had a few words with Zhong Yishi, who persuaded him to leave.
Zhong Yishi knew how Chen Yunyan handled things, and would not be polite when meeting Shen Tong, or would tie Shen Tong over, so he did not want He Shaobai to meet him.
He Shaobai was sleepy and tired, so he followed Zhong Yishi and went back to have a good sleep. He hurried over at dawn. As soon as he entered Lu's house, he saw the Shen family's wife and children were there. My sister-in-law has invited me here?"
When Shen's wife saw him, she felt relieved and said, "Brother Shaobai, if you have any trouble with Lao Shen, you deserve to burn my house."
He Shaobai did not expect that Zhang Yunyan would attack so cruelly, and was shocked: "Zhang Yunyan, you, how could you treat my friend like this!"
Chen Yunyan smiled and said: "Master He thinks Master Shen is a good friend, but he may not like you. You don't have to worry about this."
He Shaobai thought about it. He was chasing Shen Tong like that last night and he refused to meet him. If he didn't do this, how could he be invited? But if he did this, he would not be friends and his identity would be exposed.
No wonder Shen Tong said that as soon as his friend showed up, something would happen in the capital. From this point of view, the arson case was also committed by Qian Yunyan.
A person with such a clean and handsome appearance can be so cruel and ruthless. You must be careful with him in the future.
Shen's wife thought that He Shaobai was putting on a show for her, so she watched with cold eyes. After listening for a long time, she still didn't find out why Shen Tong had offended these people, so she said: "Brother Shaobai, normally the matters between you men should not be dealt with by women." You should talk too much..."
Chen Yunyan said: "Since you know you shouldn't talk too much, why don't you shut up quickly!"
Zhong Yishi pulled He Shaobai into the courtyard and said, "I drove you away last night, but you came back. No wonder Yun Yan didn't give you a step. Go back quickly. If I guessed right, Master Shen will definitely go." Looking for you."
"You blame me, why didn't you consult with me before doing anything?" He Shaobai said dissatisfied.
Zhong Yishi sneered and said: "These things are not all caused by you? Why should I come to the capital to help you achieve great achievements? Didn't you say that you don't stick to trivial matters when doing big things? A little Comrade Shen You are afraid of offending, so how can you achieve great achievements? How come I see that your temper has changed drastically since you became an official in the capital?"
