Chapter 82 Haircut Gift (1) (Thanks to Angelica for the reward)
The two of them were tormented together. Everyone wanted to talk, but no one could. Shu Yao was grateful for his concern for her and felt that she had caused him a lot of trouble. It was not easy to investigate the murderer.
With an apology on his face he said:
"Let Uncle Jiu worry about it. It doesn't matter if we can't find the person behind it. I just won't leave the gate of the Duke's Mansion from now on. No one will break into the Duke's Mansion."
The more she behaves like this, the more angry Shen Junzhuo becomes. Does she know that the capital is his territory, and that he will ask about anything that happens in the capital? What's more, the matter is related to her. Such a polite and distant expression is
What means?
He suddenly stood up from his chair, tried hard to suppress the anger that came up, and said:
"Young lady, you don't have to be polite, this is what I should do!"
Shu Yao was a little panicked. She didn't know why he was so angry. Even if he didn't express his anger, she could feel the surging anger suppressed by him. She slowly moved up from the chair and shouted softly.
:
"Uncle Nine..."
Just like that, his anger was released in a flash. Yes, he was her elder, and she called her uncle Ninth. She should indeed observe all kinds of etiquette to deal with him. She did nothing wrong.
Then the fault lies with him. What is he still longing for? Let her cross the common ethics and rush to him? He can't be so selfish. Even if he doesn't want his own reputation, he can't let her be pointed out by others in front of and behind his back.
!
He took a few steps forward, turned his back to her, raised his head and looked out the window for a while, then turned back to her standing and said:
"That's good. Stop standing all the time. Sit down."
Shu Yao felt that the nameless anger he had just came and went away just as quickly, but now that the anger was gone, he felt a little lonely. She obediently returned to the chair and sat down. For a moment, neither of them knew what to say.
Something good.
The tea was cold. Since he didn't speak, Shu Yao had no reason to stay any longer. She stood up and saw that he was brushing the tea powder with his head lowered. Her eyes were full of nostalgia when she looked at him. She couldn't look at it anymore.
Just look at her and you can't help but shed tears.
"If Uncle Jiu doesn't have any settlement, Shu Yao will go back." As she said that, she lowered her head and saluted him.
He looked at her, humming softly in his throat, but his eyes were wandering around her. Although he couldn't speak, he still hoped to spend more time with her.
Seeing that he had no objection, Shu Yao stood up straight, turned around and left without raising her head. She knew that she seemed to be running away, so she turned around, and as expected, tears welled up. She took two steps and walked out the door.
, pretending to be nonchalant, called Mother Liu, and walked out while saying:
"Mom, look at me, it seems like something is caught in my eyes..."
Mother Liu followed, squealed, and said:
"Why is it so red! Something must have entered. Wait, I'll show you..."
The two of them left the Lanyue Tower while talking. Shen Junzhuo came out of the tea room and stood behind them and watched for a while. He suppressed the sourness in his heart and called the boy to ask Xu Dachang to come.
Not long after, Xu Dachang came. The two of them discussed the matter of Emperor Zhao's concubine for a long time in the study. Finally, they found a judge named Cheng from the Imperial Medical Bureau. There was a daughter in the family who had just turned sixteen and had not yet announced their marriage.
It is said that the appearance is not bad. The two agreed that Shen Junzhuo would only wait until the next day to tell Emperor Zhao that if Emperor Zhao had no objections, the candidate would be considered.
