After visiting Shen You, Mrs. Xu went to Feng Shaojun's boudoir.
Cui Yuanhan also had something to ask Shaojun's cousin, but he couldn't compete with his grandmother and silently stood outside the door.
Inside the door, Ms. Xu stretched out her hand and hugged Feng Shaojun tightly, her voice choked with sobs: "You girl, how can you have such courage? You came back alone after such a long journey."
Feng Shaojun snuggled into the warm and familiar embrace and said softly: "I brought a few servants, as well as Zheng's mother and Jixiang. Grandma, I am not a helpless young lady. Anyone who dares to provoke me will not do it. Be gentle."
When Mrs. Xu heard this, she felt even more sad and unspeakable.
A good girl has embarked on this path.
At this time, it is useless to say this. Now that he has joined the command of King Yan, he must do his job well.
Mrs. Xu took Feng Shaojun's hand and sat down. Grandfather and grandson sat opposite each other and talked in low voices.
"His Royal Highness King Yan sent a letter to the Cui family in advance, saying that he wanted to live in Cui Garden. We must appreciate His Highness's kindness."
yes!
As a dignified prince, it is only right to live in the magistrate's yamen, so he came to Cui Yuan. This is an honest and fair way to protect the Cui family. If nothing else, the officials of Pingjiang Prefecture must be polite to the Cui family.
Feng Shaojun's eyes flashed slightly: "Grandma, don't worry, I will do my best to do my job and make contributions to His Highness. I will never disappoint His Highness."
Mrs. Xu was frightened when she heard this, and subconsciously clenched Feng Shaojun's hand: "Shaojun! No matter when and where you are, you must protect yourself first."
Feng Shaojun smiled and comforted Mrs. Xu: "Don't worry. In my previous life, I disguised myself as a spy and never made any mistakes. In the end, I died of illness, which can be considered a good death."
Mrs. Xu couldn't hear these words, and her eyes instantly turned red: "What a happy death! You were only twenty-six years old! You didn't even have a husband or children, and you died alone."
"When I think about this, it hurts so much that my heart almost breaks."
"Young Master, my grandmother only hopes that you will be safe, get married, have children, and live a normal and comfortable life, far away from the flash of swords."
This is the most sincere wish of a grandmother who loves her granddaughter.
Unfortunately, this wish is destined to be impossible to realize.
Feng Shaojun was silent for a moment, then raised his eyes and looked at Mrs. Xu: "Is that why grandma told Shen You all my secrets?"
Xu didn't regret it at all, she nodded and said, "Yes."
Feng Shaojun: "..."
She can be sarcastic and sarcastic towards others, but in front of her grandmother, she is helpless.
After a long while, Feng Shaojun sighed: "Even if you want to say it, I should go and tell Shen You. It's better now, because it makes me feel guilty and I have to bow my head to admit my mistake and carefully apologize."
Xu glanced at her: "With your temperament, unless you are found out, you will not tell Shen You at all!"
Grandma still understands her.
Feng Shaojun coughed: "Actually, I plan to wait until later."
"How long will it take in the future?" Ms. Xu said with disapproval: "It's like a pustule. The sooner you pop it, the sooner it will heal. If you keep deceiving it, it will eventually be bad."
"Now let's talk about it. Why don't you stay with him? While he is recovering from his injuries, take care of him and don't leave any grudges behind."
Feng Shaojun had no choice but to nod his head obediently and said casually: "Grandma said I just knew the art of disguise. Why did she even tell him about me dressing up as Eunuch Feng?"
Xu was stunned: "I didn't say that!"
Feng Shaojun's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes suddenly widened: "What? What do you mean you didn't say it?"
Mrs. Xu frowned: "That day, I told Shen You that you had been practicing martial arts since you were a child and had learned the art of disguise. How dare I say such a thing as joining King Yan as a spy? You dressed up as Eunuch Feng. I didn’t even mention a word about it.”
Feng Shaojun: "..."
How is this going!
Even if Shen You knew that she could disguise herself, how could he be so sure that Eunuch Feng was her!
What secrets are hidden in this?
Feng Shaojun frowned.
When Mrs. Xu saw Feng Shaojun's expression was different, she opened her mouth to comfort her: "It's good that you know. In this way, there will be no more hidden barriers between you."
That's not necessarily the case.
She has no secret, but he is hiding something from her!
Feng Shaojun snorted deeply in his heart. But his expression softened a lot, and he smiled slightly and said, "Grandma said so."
Mrs. Xu was still worried and told him, "Get along well with him and don't make trouble over trivial matters."
Feng Shaojun smiled sweetly: "I listen to my grandmother."
…
Half an hour later, Cui Yuanhan saw Shaojun's cousin.
"I really didn't expect you to come back alone." Cui Yuanhan is still scared thinking about it now: "You are a girl, you are too courageous."
The things she has done are much more daring than this.
Feng Shaojun smiled slightly: "Didn't I come back safely?"
Cui Yuanhan smiled helplessly and said: "That's all, I won't bother you anymore! How long do you plan to stay when you come back this time? Do you want to wait for His Highness King Yan to finish investigating the case and then return to Beijing together?"
Feng Shaojun said: "When cousin You's injury improves, I will return to Beijing with him."
Cui Yuanhan heard this with sore teeth and a taste for food: "I used to talk about Cousin Yuanhan, but now all I see is your Cousin You! No wonder they are not willing to have a daughter. Even before they get married, their elbows are bent out."
Feng Shaojun smiled and glared at him.
After chatting and joking, it was getting late.
Feng Shaojun sent someone to prepare a meal, and the three of them had dinner together.
After dinner, Feng Shaojun sent Xu and Cui Yuanhan out of Cui Garden. Then, he went to Shen You's house.
What a coincidence, Shen Jiazheng was scrubbing Shen You's body!
The careless Shen Jia didn't even lock the door. The main reason was that no one came at all on weekdays, at most Dr. Liu and the medicine boy. They were both men, so it didn't matter if they just took a look.
The moment the door opened and Shaojun's cousin's voice reached his ears, Shen Jiadun knew something was wrong. It was too late to stop him. Feng Shaojun had already entered the room and caught a glimpse of Shen You, who was "half-dressed" on the bed.
To say "half-dressed" is really understatement. In fact, all he wore was a pair of close-fitting shorts and a bandage on his chest. His strong, flat belly and two slender, straight legs were clearly visible.
Shen You: "..."
Shen You stretched out his hand to pull the quilt, and with this movement, the wound on his chest was immediately affected, causing a burst of severe pain. He groaned, and cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead.
Shen Jia was startled: "Don't move." He quickly took over and covered Shen You with the quilt.
Then, he apologized to Feng Shaojun and said, "Cousin Shaojun, I'm really sorry. It was because I didn't think carefully and didn't bolt the door."
Shaojun's cousin was not annoyed at all, nor did she hide her face shyly and left: "Cousin You is my fiancée, so there is no need to worry about it. Why don't I come and clean it for Cousin You."
