Chapter 296: Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix

Shen Xingwan originally planned to stay in Minnan for a while and leave after attending Min Xijian's succession ceremony.

But the news that she was in southern Fujian spread, and the Yulongwei probably smelled it and were very happy to come.

She is no longer afraid of them, but her relationship with Min Xijian is not yet suitable for exposure.

So Shen Xingwan decided to leave as soon as possible.

Liyan came to her study very early in the morning and sat there silently, with air-conditioning exuding all over her body, so as not to make her presence too strong.

Jiang Shiyilang said, "Let's leave in three days. The matter will be basically settled."

Shen Xingwan nodded.

Liyan put the sword in his hand on the table with a loud bang, "When will you fulfill your promise to me?"

Shen Xingwan rolled his eyes angrily, "I have already written a letter back to Jiangnan. The Shen family will send someone to pick them up."

The fisherwomen were temporarily placed in a suburban yard, where they were very safe.

When Li Yan heard this, he covered his chest and blood spurted out.

Shen Xingwan was so frightened that he dropped the pen in his hand and opened his mouth wide, "Are you so angry that you are vomiting blood?"

Li Yan glared at her fiercely, his face turned as white as if he had been dead for three days and three nights.

Shen Xingwan stopped joking and called Chanyi over.

Chanyi gave him a thorough diagnosis and concluded that he was poisoned, and that there was more than one poison in his body.

Shen Xingwan was silent for a while and asked, "Who gave it to you?"

Liyan said, "King Minnan, in order to control me."

It is said that tiger poison cannot eat its seeds, but King Min Nan is really cruel.

Liyan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "Before assassinating him, I was prepared to die."

Shen Xingwan ignored him and turned to Chanyi, "Is there any hope?"

Chanyi looked heavy, "I can only suppress him first and think of a way."

Li Yan said indifferently, "If you die, you will die. Just do what you promised me."

Having said so himself, Shen Xingwan had no choice but to let Chanyi suppress the spread of the toxin for him first, and the rest would be left to chance.

The night before leaving, Min Xijian specially held a farewell banquet for them.

After drinking for three rounds, we started talking about business.

Shen Xingwan reminded him, "The emperor's people will definitely arrive soon. He has already known about Min Nan's troop garrison. It is very likely that the people sent here this time are to settle old and new accounts together. You have to be careful in dealing with it."

Min Xijian nodded, "My grandfather said so too."

Knowing what was going on, Shen Xingwan felt relieved.

In the current situation, the emperor would not dare to force things. If a quarrel breaks out, it would be like indirectly following Qi Han's wishes. He is not that stupid.

Min Xijian clapped his hands and asked someone to give him the gift he had prepared, and nothing else. Shen Xingwan couldn't take his eyes away from the stack of banknotes.

Who caused her to bleed heavily this time? She felt heartbroken when she saw the money.

Min Xijian said generously, "This is for your traveling expenses."

Shen Xingwan said politely, "It's a long journey and there are quite a few places where you need to spend money, so I'll accept it first."

Seeing this, Qin Xuejian said, "I've almost packed my things. What time will we set out tomorrow?"

Min Xijian became anxious and winked at Shen Xingwan crazily.

Shen Xingwan coughed, "You want to come with us too?"

Qin Xuejian said calmly, "Of course, you are all gone, why are you left here alone?"

Shen Xingwan's mind was spinning rapidly, he covered his mouth and lowered his voice, "It won't be easy for me to take down Minnan. You are not allowed to stay and help me keep an eye on Min Xijian. If we leave on the front foot and he turns his back on me, then I

Isn’t your hard work in vain?”

Qin Xuejian lowered his eyes, saying neither yes nor no.

Shen Xingwan didn't want to force it, and just said, "You should think about it carefully. Everyone knows how sincere he is towards you."

Because I have to get up early to travel tomorrow, the banquet ended early.

Min Xi simply said, "I wish you a safe journey and look forward to seeing you again."

On the way back, Min Xijian did not ride a horse because he was drunk, but took a carriage with Qin Xuejian.

Probably because of what happened at the banquet, no one spoke.

The carriage soon entered the bustling night market, and the sounds of various sellers and shouts could be heard through the curtains of the carriage.

Min Xijian opened the car curtain and took a look outside, "Let's go shopping together for a while?"

Qin Xuejian also felt awkward in the car and nodded in agreement.

The two got out of the car together. It was the time when thousands of houses were lit up outside, and the whole street was lit up. There were shops selling everything. The old man with gray hair, the bouncing children, and the young lady with a beautiful hairstyle, all of them were quite together.

Stylish men and women.

The lively atmosphere of the human world made Qin Xuejian relax immediately, and there was some warmth in the corner of his mouth.

Min Xijian took her around, introduced local specialties to her, and told her stories about her childhood.

Although Qin Xuejian didn't speak, he listened very carefully.

Finally, Min Xijian stopped at a stall selling paper-cutting, "The paper-cutting in southern Fujian is the most beautiful and spiritual paper-cutting I have ever seen."

The paper-cuts on the stalls are indeed vivid, with all kinds of cute animals, and even fairy tales such as Chang'e flying to the moon.

The colorful paper-cuts are pieced together by the hands of craftsmen to create gorgeous dreams.

Min Xijian picked a pair of phoenixes that were placed in the most conspicuous position and handed them to Qin Xuejian.

Qin Xuejian hesitated for a moment and then accepted it. The old lady at the stall smiled kindly and said, "The name of this paper-cut is Feng Qiuhuang."

Qin Xuejian looked at the paper-cut in his hand, with a slight blush on his face.

The atmosphere between the two became subtle.

When I walked to the corner of the street, I saw a lush tree covered with red silk.

"This is a thousand-year-old red bean tree. Many people come to pray for marriage."

Min Xijian picked up the red silk on the wooden table and handed it to Qin Xuejian, "What do you want, sister?"

Qin Xuejian shook his head, "I want nothing."

Min Xijian lowered her head and quickly wrote a line of words on the red silk, "But I have something to ask for."

Min Xi hung up the red silk slip, with only one sentence written on it: I wish to win the heart of one person, and we will never leave each other until we grow old.

Qin Xuejian looked up at this tree. She was not unfamiliar with it at all. The red bean bracelet Nangong Jingze gave her back then was made from red beans grown from this tree.

Min Xijian said, "Stay, sister. Southern Fujian is very good. There are fireworks here, there are thousand-year-old red bean trees here, there are good mountains and good waters..."

Min Xijian reached out and held her hand, "When will my sister dance a solo for me..."

Qin Xuejian looked at him with a touch of sadness in his eyes, "I may not love someone passionately anymore, so don't waste your time on me."

She had been deeply hurt emotionally, she wasn't sure she could love him, and he felt it was unfair to Min Hee-jian.

Min Xijian looked at her warmly, "One year, one year is the limit. If you still can't accept it, how about leaving."

Qin Xuejian looked at the young man who bowed his head in front of her and was shaken.

There are many differences between them: age, status, and uncertainty about the future.

But the sincerity of young people is always the most touching.
