Chapter 42: Miss Wang's Mansion
"Does Your Highness need me to investigate?" Yandong also realized the interests of it, and perhaps he could find something ulterior motive. Compared with the honor and disgrace of the country, Yandong cares more about Shen Muchen's safety.
You should know that at that time, when the whole world knew that the next emperor would be Shen Muchen, the old emperor suddenly died overnight and Shen Zitian took the throne. Everyone knows what was born in it.
Looking at Shen Muchen's increasingly haggard face, he became worried. It had been several months since the incident, but His Highness seemed to have not recovered from his grief. He finally met Miss Li, but who would have thought that the temple would be annihilated?
Miss Li disappeared overnight. Now that the war is approaching, His Majesty is resentful of His Highness's obstacle, he might even put His Highness in danger.
Seeing that there was no figure by the window, Shen Muchen looked at Yandong and wiped the frown between his eyebrows. "Shen Zi can sit in this position today, he has the ability. Since he has done it, he will definitely erase all traces. Do you think he will let our people find out what?"
Yandong didn't say anything, "Your Highness is still thinking rigorously, then we now..."
Before he finished speaking, the study felt a gust of wind spiraling around him. He came back to his senses and looked at him carefully. Shen Muchen was already standing in front of the door of the house waiting for him. He urged, "The person has left the inn, let's follow!"
Yang Cheng, who came with Ma Kui and Song Chengyao, was the inn where Song Chengyao left alone and got into the crowd. Shen Muchen carefully leaned into the inn, and saw Ma Kui sitting alone on the table in the center of the inn, drinking tea with his back to the door. It looked very casual, not like he was pretending.
"What are you doing? Why are you drinking tea?" Seeing this scene, Yandong didn't understand the style of the two.
Shin Muchen looked at Song Chengyao who was gradually moving away, pursed his lips and immediately made a decision.
"Yandong, you stare at Ma Kui, I'll go with Song Chengyao alone." His tone was very firm, and his eyes showed a toughness.
Yandong nodded understandingly and whispered, "I understand, Your Highness remember not to be careful!"
Song Chengyao walked in front, Shen Muchen followed behind, and had not looked closely just now. After seeing this, Song Chengyao was holding a roll of something in his hand. The thing was wrapped in jade brocade, which seemed to be something very expensive.
Song Chengyao was a businessman, so he was not as cautious as Ma Kui and others. Along the way, he did not notice the eyes behind him that were staring at him. In this way, the two of them came to the Yangcheng Wang family.
Song Chengyao entered the palace with his things in his arms, and lost his trace in the blink of an eye. Shen Muchen stood straight in front of the palace, looking at the plaque of the "King Mansion" and his heart was in sank. He had heard about the palace when he was still in Yangcheng.
The Wang Mansion is one of the thousands of merchants in Yangcheng. It is only the last eighty among the hundreds of merchants. It is an unknown small household. I remember that I first learned about the Wang family because of Wang Ruru of the Wang family...
It was a coincidence that we met Wang Ruru. At that time, Wang Ruru was standing by the lake playing with water. I don’t know if it was because of the strong wind or the rock slippery side of the lake. Wang Ruru accidentally fell down and almost drowned. Fortunately, Shen Muchen, who passed by the lake, saw her. Fortunately, she rescued her in time and could have escaped without any hesitation, but since that day, Wang Ruru has been "wrapped" herself and can’t even get rid of it.
He thought of Wang Ruru's voice in his head, and he was still a little palpitations at this time, and sighed deeply, "Why are you here again..."
No matter how small the household is, the royal family is not just in. Shen Muchen looked at the two servants in front of the mansion standing firmly at the door, and was very helpless. He calmed down and thought about it carefully. Not only in Yangcheng, but also in Yucheng, merchants like the royal family had some financial resources but had no power at all, which made their door unable to cause much trouble. Thinking about it, he was relieved to leave.
"Brother Shen!" A crisp female voice came from behind. Along with the familiar bells, a shadow ran over from behind, and a bear hug hugged Shen Muchen from behind, "Brother Shen, why are you here?"
It's over. Shen Muchen turned around in frightened.
Wang Ruru's voice was very loud. He subconsciously looked into the mansion, but fortunately it did not attract anyone's attention. Then he looked back and saw that there were no suspicious people behind him. Shen Muchen dragged Ruru to the alley next to him.
Their traces in Yang Cheng must be kept confidential. Shen Muchen is worried that Wang Ruru's mouth would leak their traces out so much and alert the snake. No, the plan cannot be destroyed in the hands of this woman.
Thinking of this, he forced a little dry laugh and lowered his voice, "What's wrong?" While speaking, he gently pushed Wang Ruru's hand holding her tightly, "I'm busy, you have something to do."
Wang Ruru slapped Shen Muchen's chest hard, looking like a good friend. "Brother Shen returned to Yucheng without saying a word, which made me wait for a while, but now I'm caught again... I said, "What are you looking at in front of my door~" She tilted her head and pointed at Shen Muchen, as if she was asking for guilt. Seeing that Shen Muchen didn't say anything, Wang Ruru was whimsical again, holding Shen Muchen's face and shouted excitedly, "You can't come to me specifically!"
He quickly took down her 'unty' hand and stared at Wang Ruru with anger, "Wang Ruru!"
"What's the point of hugging a man on the street, a girl's house?!"
With a roar, Wang Ruru's happy expression suddenly turned into a sad state. Her aggrieved face was pinching and water. The tears hanging on her eyelashes were shaking. She became sensible. "I know I'm going to fight recently... I don't know that I can't just find Brother Shen in the future..."
Wang Ruru looks very cute, and even her voice is slim and coquettish. If she had been an ordinary man, she would have been beaten to the last line of defense. However, unfortunately, Shen Muchen is not a person who is greedy for beauty.
Looking at her face, Shen Muchen thought of an excellent way. Since he couldn't enter the palace, he could let Wang Ruru be his "eye-liner" in the palace. As the saying goes, having good resources without using them is a waste!
Thinking of this, Shen Muchen's voice softened, but he did not indulge her in his tone at all, "Not to be an example."
"Do you know the person who just entered?" As soon as the topic changed, Shen Muchen led the topic to Song Chengyao.
Wang Ruru replied, "It's a new face. My father said that it was a businessman from Yucheng and was here to do business with the Wang family."
“Do business?”
"Well," Wang Ruru recalled that when the two made an appointment to meet today, Fei Ge sent a letter two days ago, "I heard from my father that they were together when they were young, and they separated after they got married. This seems to be the first time they met in decades. Does Brother Shen know that?"
