Chapter 99 The Princess Appears(2/2)
A general must consider such things. Shen Xiao also knew that he could no longer be as impulsive as before.
But at this time, Yueying muttered.
"Do you think the silver-faced general looks familiar?"
But Yin Mian wears a silver mask all the time, how can he look familiar?
Shen Xiao thought Yue Ying was joking, but Yue Ying said again.
"I'm talking about body shape, don't you think?"
Shen Xiao looked over and was stunned for a moment when he saw the silver face of the general on the horse.
At this time, her Uncle Bai said something in a low voice.
"It's not just Yinmian, look at that princess."
The princess was sitting on the carriage, with a thin veil on the outside, and another layer of veil on her face. Her facial features could not be seen clearly.
But Shen Xiao only looked at it carefully, and her heart beat faster.
She opened her eyes wide and turned to look at Bai Chen.
"It's Tian."
"Shh!"
Shen Xiao was silenced, but her heart was filled with turmoil.
Even if she couldn't see the facial features clearly, she would not mistake the person in Luan Jiali.
That's not someone else, isn't it Tiantian?
Bai Chen took Shen Xiao and Yue Ying, and after Princess Luan drove by, they entered a small teahouse. The three of them sat in a corner and heard that all the discussions in the teahouse were about the princess.
But Shen Xiao couldn't hear what others were saying at all, she only asked Bai Chen and Yue Ying.
"Is it her? Is it them?"
Yueying was still a little hesitant, but Bai Chen said.
"I think, ninety-nine percent, that's it."
"It's not the princess in the rumors, and the princess that Eunuch Huang is looking for, isn't she eighteen or nineteen years old?"
How old is Tiantian?
Shen Xiaowu couldn't believe it completely, but Bai Chen suddenly nodded at her.
"If it's really them, what do you think, Xiao?"
Shen Xiao suddenly laughed.
She could have made it this far, if Qin Tian and Qin Shen hadn't helped her over and over again, she would still be wandering around the academy.
Even if it wasn't for the Shen Jiajun, not for the glory of her father and brother to shine again, or not for herself to find a bright path, as long as they needed her, she should do her best.
"I thought this might be the way God showed us."
As soon as these words came out, Bai Chen laughed.
"What a coincidence, I think so too."
Shen Xiao and Bai Chen looked at each other.
Or Yueying said, "But now, how can we see the princess?"
Originally, the princess was a noble person who lived in the courtyard. Now that the princess appears, the court must regard her as a thorn in the flesh. It is impossible for the Suzheng Army not to strengthen the patrol around the princess. How can ordinary people see the princess if they have no connections?
The most Shen Xiao can do is try to deliver a letter to Qingzhou and hand it over to Qin Tian.
But now Qingzhou is still under the rule of the imperial court, but the princess is in the territory of Suzheng Army. It is not easy for the two parties to communicate with each other, and it is very likely to involve Qin Guanzhong, who is still an official in the imperial court.
"Su Zhengjun was originally a scholar from Yanzhou who led the unwilling people to revolt. Would it be faster if we found a way out of the scholar?" Shen Xiao tried to ask.
Bai Chen thought for a moment and pointed behind her.
"Look, there's someone there."
Shen Xiao turned around and looked, and there was a man dressed as a scholar sitting on the table behind her, with his back to her.
He just sat at a table by himself and seemed to be waiting for someone.
Shen Xiao thought for a moment and said, "I'll talk to this scholar first."
She said and sat over.
"May I ask this gentleman, is he a native of Yanzhou?"
Before she finished speaking, the man suddenly laughed softly. He turned around and saw a gentle and handsome face falling into her eyes.
"I'm afraid I'm not the local scholar in Yanzhou that Miss Shen is looking for, but if Miss Shen wants to see her old friend, I can pass the message on her behalf."
Shen Xiao was speechless.
"Li, Mr. Li?"
Li Weizhen stretched out her long fingers and counted.
"Steward, apprentice, shopkeeper of the dry goods store, am I now a scholar again while I'm with the girl?"
Shen Xiao: "."
Is it still too late to say I'm sorry?
She really didn't mean to misidentify him!
Yueying on the side was still trying hard to hold back, while Bai Chen had already laughed out loud.
Shen Xiao was secretly angry, but she still said, "Isn't it right" when apologizing?
Before he finished speaking, the young man said generously, "It doesn't matter."
He looked towards Shen Xiao, and for some reason, the fixed gaze made Shen Xiao feel a little subtle.
He looked at her and said.
"Since Mr. Li and Ms. Shen have met again, I think this time, I will definitely let you remember me."
His voice was always gentle and sweet, but when it fell in Shen Xiao's ears, she swallowed uncomfortably.
*
On the tall restaurant not far from the small teahouse.
The restaurant was almost destroyed during the war, but fortunately the shopkeeper saved it. Now it has been renovated and has become the largest restaurant in Yanzhou.
The princess's carriage passed by on the street in front of the building. The place had been cleared many times by soldiers and generals. Even so, many people did not want to be crowded below and sat in the private rooms to watch the princess's carriage pass by.
The waiter brought the drinks and saw several guests in rich clothes. Although he didn't know where they came from, it was certain that they would leave a lot of money.
The waiter offered him the wine knowingly and then left.
In the private room, Wei Chengtang took a sip.
"Even if it's just ordinary drinking, if you encounter something good that makes your heart happy, it will taste like nectar and wine."
As he spoke, he looked at his eldest son, who was standing at the window and looking down. The eldest son stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, not moving, and was silent and speechless.
Wei Chengtang walked over with a wine glass.
The princess's carriage just walked to the bottom of the restaurant. She could not see the princess in her carriage, but could only see the gold embroidery on the top of the magnificent sedan chair.
"The little girl has really become a princess. Next, Qin Guanzhong will be there soon. The Wei family is in Qingzhou. I think at this time, even if we can't do anything openly, we still have to do something privately. In order to suppress the army, and more importantly for the sake of this princess, please don’t let the princess forget about the Wei family, especially you."
He spoke for a long time and turned to look at his eldest son.
The eldest son didn't know why, but his eyes still fell on the princess's carriage.
Luan Jia was surrounded and gradually left. His eyes seemed to be chasing forward, and his eyes showed no emotion.
"Mou Xian?" Wei Chengtang couldn't help calling his cousin.
After he finished speaking, he turned back.
Wei Chengtang thought he didn't hear the question he just asked, and was about to repeat it when he heard the eldest son speak.
Wei Yunce slowly withdrew his gaze and smiled slightly.
"What father said is absolutely true. The Wei family must continue to do something."
Wei Chengtang nodded and was about to discuss with his son what he could do for Princess Su Zhengjun.
Wei Yunce picked up the wine glass and filled it for his father.
"These are just trivial matters. The father does not need to worry about it. The son has his own arrangements."
Good night
