Shen Xingwan followed Fu Jingchao out, thinking he had something to tell her, but ended up staying here with him to enjoy the cold wind.
"Why do I feel that you are acting weird and were stimulated by Mr. Xie?" Shen Xingwan asked tentatively.
Fu Jingchao looked at her hesitantly, and suddenly asked, "Why did you suddenly want to be the old lady's granddaughter? You are not greedy for fame and fortune."
Shen Xingwan looked up at the starry sky and said in a somewhat ethereal voice, "Probably because I hate the feeling of being powerless. I am not greedy for fame and fortune, but fame, fortune and power are indeed good things. I am a common person."
She grew up in a wealthy family, received the most elite education since she was a child, and was used to fame and fortune.
Many times the so-called dreams and the so-called freedom require power and money to support them. She has always been very sober and realistic.
If you don't have it in your hands, how much is the so-called self-respect worth and how long can it last?
There are not so many fairy tales and not so many miracles in the adult world.
She admires people who don't give up for five buckets of rice, and also admires people who have a righteous heart and clear sleeves.
But she, Shen Xingwan, has never been that kind of person. She loves and hates passionately and openly, and she will retaliate for all kinds of evil.
Fu Jingchao looked at her with complicated eyes and said nothing for a long time.
Shen Xingwan saw a trace of distress in his eyes as if he had seen a ghost.
This made her a little uncomfortable. She took a step back and said with a cold tone, "What is that look in your eyes? Do you sympathize with me..."
"Chasing fame and fortune is because you want to protect yourself." Fu Jingchao said softly, "You are not well protected, so you can only become stronger on your own."
Although it was unpleasant to have someone see through his mind, Shen Xingwan did not deny it, but said, "No one can protect anyone for a lifetime."
That's why you can be invulnerable only if you are strong.
Just as Fu Jingchao was about to say something, Fu Siye came over and said, "It's time for us to say goodbye."
It was dark at night, and Shen Xingwan and Fu Jingchao got into the carriage. Fu Jingchao was still injured and could not ride a horse.
The two sat opposite each other in the carriage, and neither of them spoke for a while. Fu Jingchao was obviously distracted and was extremely silent.
"Xu~"
Suddenly the carriage stopped listening. Fu Jingchao opened his eyes and tightened his grip on the sword at his waist.
In the silent night, there were unknown sounds of birds and frogs.
"Who are we friends from? Since we are here, let's come out and chat."
Fu Siye's sonorous and powerful voice sounded in the night, but the surroundings were still eerily quiet.
With a look from Fu Siye, his men directly drew their arrows and shot them directly into the tree next to them.
A man with braided hair jumped down from the tree. His appearance and physique showed that he was not from the Central Plains.
"As expected of General Fu, he has extraordinary insight."
As a cold voice sounded, Min Xilin walked out from the corner with a group of people.
Fu Siye looked at him coldly, "In the middle of the night, Prince Min is full and has nothing to do, so why is he taking a walk in this deserted place?"
Min Xilin looked past Fu Siye and towards the carriage, "General Fu is quite leisurely, isn't he? There's a beauty sitting on the carriage."
"This has nothing to do with Prince Fu." Fu Siye said without changing his expression, "I hate nosy people."
His people have been keeping an eye on the Xie family these days, and tonight they were lucky enough to notice that a special guest was visiting the Xie family.
I didn't expect it to be Fu Siye.
Min Xilin smiled and said with an aggressive look, "I suspect that the people in the car are related to my sister's death!"
"Where's the evidence?" Fu Siye asked calmly.
Min Xilin sneered, "As long as we confirm who is doing it in the car, the evidence will be there."
He really didn't have any evidence, but he could confirm that the person in the car was Fu Jingchao, and maybe the little girl.
He has always trusted Nangong Hyun's analysis and intuition.
It’s hard to say whether Min Xizhao’s death has something to do with Fu Jingchao, but it must have something to do with Shen Xingwan.
Fu Siye rode on the horse and pointed the sword in his hand directly at Min Xilin, "Who is Prince Min talking to?"
"What do you mean?" Min Xilin's tone was sharp.
"You can just take a look at my carriage?" Fu Siye said sarcastically, "You have a pretty big face."
Min Xilin was instantly angered. Unfortunately, Fu Siye's murderous intent, which he had experienced on the battlefield, was not afraid of him at all. He looked at him with such majesty, "Is Prince Min planning to fight me?"
Today, there are really not many people in the younger generation who dare to compete with Fu Jingchao.
Min Xilin asked himself that he would not lose to anyone when he played tricks, but if he was upfront, he would not be so confident.
"What is the crime for General Fu to leave the capital without being summoned?" Min Xilin seized the loophole and asked.
Fu Siye just chuckled, "Then you go and tell the emperor. I will admit whatever crime the emperor says I should be guilty of."
"But...if the emperor asks, he will definitely report in detail what Miss Min did in Jiangnan."
What Min Xi Zhao did was, at best, like going crazy for love and causing trouble everywhere.
At a higher level, it is said that she has a secret relationship with the prince, covets the position of the prince's concubine, and even intervenes in the Jiangnan salt case...
If it doesn't work well, it will drag down the entire Min family, especially now that the prince has been deposed.
Both of them are smart people. After exchanging a few words, they both understood each other's meaning.
If you want to break up, just play together.
Even if they have all arrived in Jiangnan, it is not a secret in a sense, but the meaning changes when it is put on the table.
Because none of them should be here. One holds military power, one family dominates the other, and they are obviously related to the prince and the Jiangnan salt case. In the eyes of the emperor, it is a major crime.
Min Xilin felt a little unwilling, but he really couldn't risk it and quarrel with Fu Siye.
Finally, he said angrily, "General Fu walks a lot at night, be careful of ghosts!"
"Prince Min, you should worry more about yourself. If you like hanging out at night so much, you might end up being too careful." Fu Siye said in a cool tone.
Min Xilin watched with an ugly expression as Fu Siye and his group walked away. His original plan was to force the people out of the car to confirm his guess, but it was a pity that Fu Siye was too keen.
"Is the prince going to let them go just like that?"
Min Xilin sneered, picked up the sword beside him, drew his bow and shot at the carriage.
In the end, the arrow shot through the carriage quickly and accurately, and the air condensed instantly.
Fu Siye picked up the bow and arrow on his horse, stepped on the horse and shot three arrows straight at Min Xilin.
Min Xilin retreated quickly, stomping three arrows, one of which even scratched his clothes.
"Is Prince Min challenging my archery skills?" Fu Siye looked at him with an indifferent expression.
Min Xilin snorted coldly and quickly retreated with his men.
Fu Siye then asked, "Is everything okay?"
The curtains of the carriage were opened. Fu Jingchao threw the broken arrow out and shook his head, "It's okay. Why is he here? Did he notice something was wrong?"
Shen Xingwan frowned, feeling a little worried.
If Min Xilin were to target him, things would be in trouble.
