Chapter 4 Be sure to keep the things you bring
Chapter 4 Everyone, be sure to keep the things you brought here.
Shen Zhiyue took out the account book from her clothes and threw it at him: "I will not cooperate with cold-blooded animals. My life and Jianxue's life are the same in your eyes."
She shouted to the driver: "Stop the sedan, I want to get out."
Bai Mingyu narrowed his eyes. She was so bold. She dared to be rude to him. Did she really think her head was strong enough?
A majestic voice sounded: "What are you going to do?"
"If you don't save me, I will." When Shen Zhiyue saw that the carriage did not stop, she rushed out and jumped off in public.
When Yu Cong saw her desperate behavior, he was so frightened that he reined in the horse's rope and stopped the carriage.
Shen Zhiyue patted the dust on her body and limped back. In her eyes, everyone's life was equal, not to mention that Jianxue died for her.
Bai Mingyu saw her stubborn look. She was just a maid's life, but she regarded it as more important than his own life, which touched his heart.
He went down, knocked her unconscious, and carried her into the carriage: "Go back to the inn."
In the evening, she woke up slowly, looked around, sat up suddenly, but felt sore all over, so she lay back down.
Bai Mingyu walked in: "Do you know where the Shen family's boat is parked?"
The people he brought could not find anything here. The people here either didn't know, or they were colluding with the Shen family and said nothing.
Shen Zhiyue thought about it carefully, and in her memory, she seemed to have heard Shen Yichu mention it, but why did she want to help him.
"In exchange, you help me rescue Jianxue."
"What if the king said that you and the maid can only choose one of two lives?" Bai Mingyu looked at her: "In your opinion, with the status of a prince or a court official, you can go anywhere?"
Shen Zhiyue calmed down and thought of the fact that as the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. Just because Shen Yichu didn't take him seriously, he probably couldn't protect himself.
"I'll write you the address." Shen Zhiyue picked up the brush and dipped it in ink.
She and he got into the sedan, but the sedan was not heading towards Shen's mansion, but towards the mountains.
She saw the darkness all around and the sudden chirping of birds, and she shivered in fear: "What are we doing here?"
Bai Mingyu was closing his eyes and concentrating at this moment. When he felt the sedan stop, he said, "We're here."
The guards carried the man over, and when the torch came closer, she could see clearly that the man's face was Jianxue.
She knelt on the ground and reached out to touch Jianxue's face: "Actually, if you don't stand up, I can find a way to prevent him from finding anything. Why should you take the blame for me?"
Bai Mingyu said: "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time and bury people alive."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Shen Zhiyue clenched her fists. She must do something for Jianxue. They also didn't like the Shen family, so let the Shen family be destroyed.
She pretended that nothing happened and returned to Shen's Mansion, continuing to live her life pretending to be stupid, when the Prince's wedding banquet arrived.
The house had been cleaned that day, and she was sitting in the courtyard drinking tea leisurely when the eldest lady came to warn her.
"If you don't manage the prince's reception banquet, be careful that the prince comes back to deal with you."
"Auntie, don't worry, it will definitely be done."
Seeing that she was confident, the eldest lady thought that her confidence was just empty. What could a hundred taels do? She just waited for the master to come back and clean up this little bitch's hoofs.
After a while, the rice merchant's son came over with ancient paintings and wanted the prince to appreciate them.
More and more businessmen came from behind, bringing various things, all for the prince to appreciate. When Shen Zhiyue saw everyone gathered, she asked people to hang up the paintings, put the porcelain on the table, and arranged the things in an orderly manner. Leave it.
As the eldest lady watched, her face became more and more ugly. The maid beside her whispered: "Madam, are we going to let her show off like this at the prince's reception banquet?"
"Go and get..." The eldest lady winked at her.
Seeing them whispering to each other, Shen Zhiyue must have no good intentions. She stood in the pavilion and said, "Everyone, be sure to take good care of the things you brought. There are many people with mixed eyes, so it is inevitable that you will not take good care of them."
When they heard this, they walked towards what they had brought and stayed nearby. If what they brought could catch the eye of the prince, they would be able to find an official position in the capital in the future.
No one wanted to miss this opportunity, and they treated their own things with special care. Seeing that there was no way to do anything, the maid turned back to the eldest lady.
"Madam." She saluted and shook her head slightly.
The eldest lady's face paused, and she waved her hand to indicate that she could go down.
When Mr. Shen came back from outside, he saw that the mansion was extremely lively. All the young talents in Tong Town gathered in the mansion.
Shen Yichu saw his father and walked over: "Dad, what I told you in the letter."
"Send extra manpower to keep an eye on the dock. Another batch of goods is coming in recently." Mr. Shen said with a solemn face.
"Dad, I don't think the Southern King is anything to be afraid of. If he insists on going against the Shen family, then we will let him never come back." Shen Yichu's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Master Shen saw that he was arrogant and reminded: "As the saying goes, the people do not fight with the officials. Unless necessary, it is better not to end up losing both sides. Don't forget, this is a big deal."
After Shen Yichu heard this, he calmed down his temper and said, "Dad, I understand."
At this time, the protagonist of the finale appears. King Nan comes in black clothes, noble, cold and arrogant, and arrogant.
Looking at it like this, Shen Zhiyue felt that her fists were itching. She couldn't do anything to him in real life. After all, he was his immediate boss's bread and butter. If he traveled through time and didn't vent, it would be a waste of time.
He opened his robe and sat down. The guard beside him, Yu Cong, opened the box, took out the prince's special dishes and set them out.
Yu Cong took out the wine he brought and poured it into the cup: "Your Majesty."
Bai Mingyu picked up the wine glass and said, "Your hospitality."
Everyone around them picked up wine glasses and drank a glass of wine. Bai Mingyu's eyes collided with hers. She looked at the bottles around her and drew pictures, not to waste her efforts.
Bai Mingyu pointed to the ancient painting in front of him: "This painting is very artistic."
"Common people are not talented. I found this saying in an antique shop in a neighboring town. If the prince catches his eye, the common people are willing to dedicate it to the prince."
"Then I will accept it." Bai Mingyu's attitude was perfunctory from beginning to end.
If they were equals, they would definitely be able to point out the other person's perfunctory behavior, but this person is a prince, so even if he knew, he would have to hold it in.
The rest of the people recommended the paintings they had brought. Since the prince made the first move, he could not take away just one painting.
The reception banquet was so lively that word spread throughout Tong Town, and her status in the Shen Mansion rose.
Mr. Shen also assigned a maid to her. On the surface, she took care of her food and daily life, but in fact, she was just monitoring her.
The tricky thing at the moment is the address I wrote him. There is no private goods at that dock. Is there another dock?
To sum up Master Shen's operation, he must be suspicious of her, and she must find a way to get some information from Shen Yichu.
Shen Zhiyue left the maid and wandered around the house. Passing by the backyard, she heard Shen Yichu chatting with the housekeeper: "The goods have been delivered, and they are just waiting for the guests to arrive. You all should be more cautious recently and don't make any trouble at this juncture."
"Yes, Master."
