Dusk is approaching, and a few lamps are already lit sporadically on the streets of Puzhou.
Fu Shen had just returned to the mansion, and now he hurried to the Governor's Mansion. He had been living here these past few days, keeping a close eye on Zong Zhengche's movements. This man was really wary, and the Hu people who came that day didn't even notice.
Being able to get close to him, now even if he is injured, there is still a loyal imperial physician guarding him, and Zong Zhengyuan's people cannot get close to him at all.
Zong Zhenglu was right. The emperor's move was indeed too bad. He failed to kill him completely this time, and he would definitely fight back fiercely in the future.
Unknowingly, he had walked to the place where he was staying. It was very close to her room, and Fu Shen couldn't help but raise his head and look over there.
The lights have been lit, so let's go and take a look.
Somehow, he walked over there. When he regretted it, the person was already outside the door.
"Sir." The little maid carrying the rice came up to him and opened the door for him considerately.
Huan Ci was sitting at her desk practicing calligraphy. She must be upset, and this was a good way for her to calm down.
After Fu Shen confirmed that his face was expressionless at this time, he raised his feet and walked in.
"The Princess is so elegant." He looked at Huan Ci who was extremely attentive, and finally couldn't help but speak first.
Huan Ci's hand holding the pen trembled, and a good word was written in vain.
She frowned lightly, crumpled the piece of paper into a ball, and threw it on the ground casually: "I don't want to eat, please stop setting out the food and go out."
Several little maids looked at each other, looking at Huan Ci who had his head lowered, and then at Fu Shen who was standing upright, wondering what to do.
"Put your things down and you go down first."
They finally breathed a sigh of relief at Fu Shen's order, and after hurriedly setting out their meals, they scurried away like rabbits.
Huan Ci's eyelids twitched, he dipped in ink again and began to write.
"Li Jinxiu has arrived in Puzhou." Fu Shen thought for a long time and finally came up with something to say that could attract her attention.
Sure enough, Huan Ci ruined her handwriting again. But this time she finally raised her head and stared at Fu Shen indifferently.
"You know him?"
"We are classmates."
Huan Ci opened her mouth, feeling a little embarrassed. She had also studied in the academy for a few months, but after all, she was so focused on Fu Shen that she didn't know that she had also interacted with Li Jinxiu.
"Which one is he?"
This time it was Fu Shen's turn to be surprised. He frowned and looked at Huan Ci: "You haven't seen it before?"
Huan Ci curled his lips. When they got engaged that day, she only valued Li Jinxiu's family background and didn't consider anything else. The two had seen each other from a distance across the pavilion, but it was a pity that Huan Ci didn't take a closer look at all. At that time, it was all his father and Li Jinxiu's parents who were talking.
, the two of them really didn’t know each other.
"What does it have to do with me if he comes to Puzhou?" Huan Ci asked coldly.
"I'm afraid that he will hinder your marriage." Fu Shen originally didn't intend to say this, but after all, he was tinged with anger when he spoke.
"You came all the way here just to talk about this, right?" Huan Ci frowned at him.
Fu Shen took two steps forward and finally thought of a new excuse: "Princess Jiarou and Su Wanling will arrive in Puzhou soon, and the Queen Mother wants you to stay with them."
Huan Ci raised his eyelids and glanced at the serious-looking man, and said impatiently: "Just send someone to tell me this kind of thing. I don't want to see you. You can go out, I want to eat."
The aroma of crab-stuffed orange filled her nostrils, making her mouth water.
Fu Shen quietly raised the corners of his lips and said, "In that case, Fu will not bother the princess anymore."
"Hypocritical." Huan Ci glanced at the man's back and walked to the table to have his meal.
Today's meals were all to her liking, which actually made her depressed mood feel better.
