Chapter 373 Miss Shen is not afraid of death?
The ministers and guests were all having a great time, and the musicians and palace maids performed various shows from time to time on the stage.
Many people tacitly ignored the kneeling figure, but there were also many young girls who could not hold their temper and mocked with glee.
The Qin family held on for a while, but when Emperor Qianwu also stood up, they left angrily.
Shen Jingchuan had been forcing himself to smile, but he never expected that before he could taste the sweetness of becoming the prince's father-in-law, he would be the victim of a wave of schemes.
After Emperor Qianwu and the Empress Dowager left, people completely let go.
Shen Shuyi didn't stay too long. After all, even if the programs were carefully prepared by the palace, after watching them too many times, they became boring and unoriginal.
Qin Xuerong had a sullen face and wanted to leave, but when she looked at her daughter, whom she had high hopes for, she felt unwilling to leave.
Shen Shuyi took a few maids and walked towards the woods.
The leaves are falling, and the scene is bleak.
Not walking too far, a piece of clothing appeared behind a rock. Shen Shuyi raised his eyebrows, feeling that the color of the clothing looked familiar.
She didn't get too close, just watched from a distance.
"Brother Bochang, if my elder sister becomes the eighth prince's consort, will you... still marry me?"
Shen Shuyi's words eventually became a thorn in Shen Jingzhen's side.
After thinking about it for a day, she finally found an opportunity to ask Feng Bochang to come out.
Feng Bochang had been sober for a few days and was busy trying to get some benefits, but when he heard her words, he paused.
Shen Jingzhen looked up at the extremely tall man in front of her, her eyes red with a hint of pitiful and innocent beauty.
Feng Bochang was silent for a while, then he sighed softly, "You should know that I am His Majesty's personal soldier. If I participate in the party struggle, my future will be ruined. If your Shen family is clean, I will marry you no matter what. If your eldest sister really marries the Eighth Prince, regardless of my own situation, my parents will not agree..."
Shen Jingzhen was distracted for a moment, and her hands hanging by her side were clenched tightly.
It turns out that what Shen Shuyi said... was actually true...
"What will you do if your eldest sister really marries the Eighth Prince?" Shen Jingzhen insisted.
Feng Bochang frowned and said nothing.
Shen Jingzhen was anxious, her voice rose a few notches: "You promised me that you would marry me! I am already yours, if you don't marry me, how can I get married in the future!"
Feng Bochang frowned even tighter, hating the feeling of being forced.
What's more, even if Shen Jingyu failed to marry into the royal family, he would not marry her. Shen Jingzhen is dissolute by nature. She has been pestering him before they even get married, and she is willing to be lowly. Who knows what will happen in the future!
"Don't worry, I will find a way. You saved my life and treated me sincerely. I will marry you no matter what." Feng Bochang said seriously.
Shen Jingzhen's throat tightened, and tears welled up in her eyes: "Really?"
"real."
"What are you going to do..." Although Shen Jingzhen was blinded by love, she was not stupid enough to be fooled.
Feng Bochang pondered for a moment and said slowly: "You are a few years younger than Shen Jingyu. If she marries the Eighth Prince, then we will have to wait."
"What are you waiting for?" Shen Jingzhen asked.
"Wait until the Eighth Prince is defeated, or succeeds." Feng Bochang lowered his voice even more, and almost as soon as the words came out of his mouth, they disappeared in the sobbing wind.
"How long will that take?" Shen Jingzhen was struck by lightning.
Emperor Qianwu was in his prime, and he still had at least a dozen more years of prosperity. If she had waited until the battle for the throne was decided, she would have been an old maid.
How could he marry her then?
What's more, even if he was willing to wait, how could the Feng family watch their son waste his time and refuse to get married?
Feng Bochang comforted her, "I'll think of other ways. If there is really no other way, then this is the only way. Besides, I saw that the Queen Mother and His Majesty were both angry today. I don't think Shen Jingyu's becoming the Eighth Prince's Consort will be smooth sailing."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was some noise not far away.
Feng Bochang whispered, "Someone is coming. I'll leave first."
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly disappeared into the woods.
Shen Shuyi and his group stood under the light and shadow of the rocks without moving.
Shen Jingzhen's throat tightened and the corners of her eyes turned red. She turned and left with a sullen look, but her heart was a mess.
Brother Feng didn't know, but she knew it clearly.
She knew better than anyone how determined her eldest sister and even her grandmother's family were to have her become the Eighth Prince's consort.
Although the Qin family is not a noble family, my grandmother was once the wet nurse of the Empress and had been exposed to the center of power, so she naturally knew what it felt like.
She was determined to have a royal concubine or queen appear in the Qin family, hoping to leap over the dragon gate and ascend to the sky in one step!
Even if they fail this time, they will come up with other ideas.
No, she couldn't let her eldest sister succeed, otherwise, how could she marry into the Feng family?
Taking in Shen Jingzhen's expression, Shen Shuyi curled his lips and felt that things were getting more and more lively.
Shen Shuyi didn't come out from the corner until Shen Jingzhen walked away.
A deep and cold male voice sounded: "Ms. Shen really likes to eavesdrop."
Shen Shuyi raised her eyes and saw a man in a navy blue brocade robe. He had deep eyes and a righteous brow, but with a hint of frivolity, looking straight at her.
Shen Shuyi: "..."
"Thank you, sir. What a coincidence." Shen Shuyi took the initiative to speak. In fact, he wanted to try to pry open Xie Jingchi's mouth to ask him what the list that day was.
Xie Jingchi curled the corner of his lips and looked at the girl in front of him with his narrow and long phoenix eyes.
Shen Shuyi curled his lips and said slowly: "Master Xie has a grudge against the Third Prince?"
After all, just a few words today brought the war to Xiao Heyu's head. To put it mildly, this was an internal fight between the two princes. To put it seriously, it also involved the crime of treason and treason.
Xie Jingchi said dimly, "He sticks to me like a dog-skin plaster. It's too annoying. Find him something to do."
As if he had not expected this reason, Shen Shuyi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Thank you, sir, for doing something good that made the Third Prince pursue you so closely."
Shen Shuyi asked Jiang Li to investigate for a while. Although he did not find out what Xie Jingchi was investigating, he was certain that what he was investigating must be related to Xiao Heyu.
Xie Jingchi raised his eyes slightly, and seeing her trying to get the list in her hand, he could not help but asked slowly, "Miss Shen, are you not afraid of death?"
Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "Who wouldn't be afraid of death? Everyone has to die, I just want to die a worthy death."
Shen Shuyi claims that she has not reached the point where she is indifferent to life and death. She wants to live, and she will do her best to live regardless of the consequences.
But she also has things she must do, things she must and has to do.
"Where did Miss Shen get the bugs?" The next moment, Xie Jingchi suddenly spoke.
Shen Shuyi was stunned for a moment and his heart tightened.
How did Xie Jingchi, a bad-tempered man, know this?
Facing the girl's surprised eyes, Xie Jingchi seemed to be in a much better mood and said coldly: "It's so ugly."
