Chapter 153: The Eve (3)
Chapter 153 Eve (3)
Shen Xun suddenly said: "Are you waiting for me to personally invite that person in?"
The guard immediately came back to his senses. He was surprised and happy at the same time. He turned around and ran to bring the weirdo here.
After a while, the weird man was led into Shen Xun's study. After the door was closed, he took off the gray cloth covering his face and removed all the coverings on his body. In an instant, a well-dressed and handsome young man suddenly appeared in the room. In the middle, he is completely different from the weirdo just now.
Shen Xun put down his pen and leaned on the cushion behind him. He raised his eyes and stared at the person in front of him calmly.
This person has a good appearance, but because his complexion is too fair and has a hint of feminine tenderness, he lacks some of the masculinity that a man should have. Fortunately, his body is still tall and straight, which makes up for this shortcoming.
"I am the eldest son of Ye, Ye Ningfeng." The man's eyes shone with shrewdness. After announcing his door, he curled up his lips and smiled, bowed his head and said hello: "I have met His Highness King Chen."
However, Shen Xun remained unmoved.
Ye Ningfeng didn't feel any embarrassment at all, but still smiled and said: "I have heard of His Highness's reputation for a long time."
Shen Xun frowned his long eyebrows, raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows, with a look of obvious impatience on his gentle face. He said: "If Mr. Ye comes here just to say these flattering words to the king, then Ye Sir, please come back."
Ye Ningfeng frowned, stopped being polite, and directly explained the purpose of his trip. Finally, he said with great sincerity: "I am willing to go through fire and water for His Highness King Chen, no matter what."
After listening patiently to what he said, Shen Xun raised his lips and smiled, and said, "Why would Mr. Ye come to follow a powerless prince?"
Ye Ningfeng had long expected that Shen Xun would say something that wanted him to give up. Just as he was about to say all the words to praise Shen Xun, the other party spoke before him.
"Did the Emperor treat you badly? He actually made you fall to the point where you need to seek refuge with me."
Hearing this, the corners of Ye Ningfeng's mouth twitched uncontrollably.
He is also a person who keeps his emotions and anger secretive, but even so, when facing Shen Xun, he is still as small as a small witch, and he shows every flaw in front of this man without hesitation.
Because Shen Xun actually knew that he was the prince's man!
He didn't even mention it to Ye Sheng. Very few people knew about it. How did Shen Xun know about it?
Thinking of this, Ye Ningfeng felt a little proud again.
Sure enough, he chose the right person this time.
However, before he could feel proud for a moment, Shen Xun suddenly raised his phoenix eyes, and the coldness in his eyes was fully revealed, and every word seemed to be covered with ice: "Or do you think Mr. Ye thinks that this king can sit in that position?"
Ye Ningfeng was caught off guard and was shocked again.
If such treacherous words were accidentally heard by someone who was interested, and then reached the ears of Emperor Chong'en, they would definitely die without a burial place. However, Shen Xun seemed to have no scruples and said it calmly. .
Ye Ningfeng tried his best to calm down in front of Shen Xun. He chuckled twice and said, "Your Highness is being modest."
Then there was another sneer.
Ye Ningfeng suddenly felt like she had goosebumps all over the place.
Shen Xun's gentle eyebrows curved, showing his usual gentleness. He said slowly: "Did you know that your father almost ruined my king's plan?"
Ye Ningfeng was shocked.
He was confused: "What plan.?"
Although he knew that Ye Sheng was working for Shen Xun, he was far away in Qinan, and Ye Sheng would never tell him what he was going to do. So he couldn't understand why Ye Sheng suddenly destroyed his support. His plan? Such a self-destructive behavior, no matter how dull and stupid Ye Sheng is, he would not be able to do this.
"Oh, it's not Ye Sheng." Shen Xun glanced at Ye Ningfeng, who was confused, and said, "If he doesn't know, then it can only be your mother and your two good sisters."
Ye Ningfeng frowned. With life and death at stake, he left behind the family ties that he felt were worthless and explained eagerly: "Your Highness, I was far away in Qinan and didn't know what they were doing, nor did I know that they would almost destroy me." If I had known about your plan, I would never have let it happen."
In his words, he completely separated himself from the Ye family and his second wife.
Shen Xun remained silent.
The more Shen Xun said nothing, the more Ye Ningfeng could not hide his panic. He slowly raised his head, looked into those cold and narrow eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I know that His Highness will not believe me. , to show my sincerity, I have prepared a meeting gift for His Highness."
The meeting gift that Ye Ningfeng mentioned should be the "wanted thing" mentioned by the guard, and it was also the reason why Shen Xun was willing to meet him. He said with great interest: "Oh? What is it."
"One million taels."
Shen Xun smiled and said nothing, and the interest in his eyes suddenly disappeared.
Ye Ningfeng continued: "I know that His Highness needs a lot of money, so I think there is nothing more suitable to give to His Highness than this."
"Let me use the official silver."
Shen Xun leaned back as hard as he could, with half of his face buried in the dark shadows. There was a sharp cold light in his eyes, and every word was filled with anger: "Ye Ningfeng, are you here to seek refuge with me or to harm me?" of?"
Ye Ningfeng was stunned for a moment.
Soon, he came to a sudden wisdom: "Your Highness, there is no need to worry, this group of official silver ministers will find a way to exchange it for ordinary silver coins, and then your Highness can use it with confidence."
The smile on Shen Xun's lips became more and more dangerous: "Do you know what you are talking about?"
"Of course I know what I'm talking about, and Your Highness doesn't have to beat around the bush with me like this." Ye Ningfeng also stiffened his head and smiled, feeling a little weak with anger: "If I don't use this to show my determination and defect to Your Highness, then that's the real thing. dead end."
Shen Xun fell silent again.
After a long while, he slowly said: "I don't need any silver."
"And I also know why you are looking for me."
Ye Ningfeng was stunned again, feeling like he had been seen through by the person in front of him from beginning to end.
Shen Xun said: "The other one million or two books you lost will be made up for you, but you have to remember."
Ye Ningfeng, whose purpose of coming was revealed, immediately became extremely excited in order to cover up his panic: "Your Highness, please tell me!"
Shen Xun said lightly: "Accepting my help means boarding my ship."
"That's natural." Ye Ningfeng didn't even think about it.
"Don't agree in a hurry." Shen Xun smiled, gradually revealing the resentful face beneath Qingyue's appearance, "You should know that if one day you are no longer of use to me, you may become a traitor to me. If it goes against you, I will abandon you without hesitation."
"I understand clearly," he said.
If he hadn't really been in a desperate situation, he would never have come to Shen Xun for help.
"I am willing to follow His Highness to the death."
"Of course, I can't help you like this for nothing. Who knows if you are someone sent by Shen Rui."
In the darkness, Shen Xun squinted his eyes, with an unmistakable smile on his handsome face, like a sinister and cunning fox or a wolf in sheep's clothing, showing his white fangs and pushing Ye Ningfeng into the blind corner step by step. .
Ye Ningfeng couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
