Chapter 72 The Expected Disappointment

Shen Yunchu bit her lip, a flash of panic flashed in her eyes, she quickly calmed down, and replied: "It's nothing, we just met that day, and he helped me out."

Hearing Shen Yunchu's words, Shen Jichang didn't say anything, but heaved a long sigh of relief, a little helpless, but also knew that there were some things that he couldn't control.

After being silent for a while, he pondered for a moment, and only said: "Shusu, you have always been sensible, so don't lose your sense of proportion at a time like this."

Shen Yunchu knew what Shen Jichang meant, that the daughter of the Shen family and the husband and son-in-law who would marry in the future should not be enemies of the Shen family, it was for the sake of the Shen family and also for himself.

Bai Yuheng is different, he is the prince, and among the many princes, he is the most outstanding person, but the Shangguan family is far from being the dominant family in the past, and it is also the easiest to be targeted.

Now, the situation is still unclear. Whether he, the crown prince, can wait until Emperor Sheng'an abdicates is still uncertain. No one knows what will happen until the end.

Besides, even if Bai Yuheng is the crown prince, to Shen Yunchu, he is just an outsider, if he gets too close, he will inevitably be gossiped.

He is different from Song Yuancheng. There are many more people staring at him than Song Yuancheng. If you are not careful, you may implicate the Shen family.

Shen Yunchu lowered his eyes slightly, and lowered his head to answer: "My daughter knows."

After saying that, Shen Jichang and Bai Weiyu left.

Back in the courtyard, Shen Yunchu hadn't entered yet, and Shen Sishi just came back. When he entered the room, he handed a piece of rice paper with a number to Shen Yunchu, "Miss, the portrait."

This is what she asked Shen Sishi to do secretly before, the portrait of the thirteenth son of Wujiang City, based on her scattered memory about Murong Xuan, he really shouldn't be like this.

But when Shen Yunchu opened the portrait, the first thing that caught his eyes was a suit of black clothes, silver utensils, and a mask that half covered his face, and it was indeed the present person.

Shen Yunchu couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, but she didn't dispel her suspicions. Since the other party came prepared, it is naturally impossible for her to find a flaw so easily.

She laid the portrait flat on the table and inspected it carefully, so that the portrait was exactly the same as the current Murong Xuan, including the costumes.

After a moment of silence, she turned her head to look at Shen Sishi: "Where did you get this portrait?"

Shen Sishi replied truthfully: "According to the young lady's order, go to Wuxi City quickly and find the first foothold of the thirteenth son after entering Sheng'an. It is the temple where he once lived, and ask the monks inside to describe the painting. .”

Wuxi is very close to Wujiang City. When Murong Xuan left Wujiang City, the first stop he had to pass was Wuxi, which was the most likely place where someone had seen the real Murong Xuan.

So, this person had already started when Murong Xuan left Wujiang?
While thinking about it, she couldn't figure it out, but in the end she could only sigh lightly, without any clues, she could only say: "Okay, it's none of your business here, you go out first."

After finishing speaking, Shen Sishi cupped his hands slightly, turned his head and went out together with Lin Lang.

Shen Yunchu sat in front of the desk, his eyes fell on the painting. Although only the eyebrows and eyes could be seen on the portrait, it seemed to be [-]% similar to Bai Yuheng. It was hard for Shen Yunchu to think that he was really the thirteenth son of Wujiang City. Prince.

How can two people who have nothing to do with each other be so similar?
Is it really just a coincidence?
Just as she was thinking, there was a knock on the door outside. Shen Yunchu became alert, subconsciously got up and folded the portraits, pressing them down with the books beside her.

"Come in."

The door was gently pushed open, and the person who came in was Shen Qingyue.

Shen Yunchu was a little surprised, after all, at this time, she should be practicing embroidery skills at the teaching nun in the same house.

After reaching the age, they don't have to go to the school to attend lectures. There are also special teachers at home, such as piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and book etiquette, which are arranged from morning to night. You have to memorize it thoroughly.

If it is not morning and evening, or special time, basically there is no rest at all, unless the homework is done very well and is appreciated by the nanny, and the nanny can also give permission to rest.

"Sister? Why are you here?"

Asking, Shen Yunchu greeted her, pulled her to the side table and sat down, Lin Lang brought tea and snacks, put them on the table, then turned her head and went out.

Before she could answer, Shen Yunchu could tell that Shen Qingyue was smiling, and she seemed to be in a good mood.

Sure enough, after a silent silence, Shen Qingyue said: "Father gave me permission to go to the barracks with my elder brother, and help my elder brother count the weapons by the way."

"Really." Shen Yunchu's eyes lit up, which she did not expect. Shen Jichang had always opposed Shen Qingyue's contact with knives and guns, but this time he was quite open-minded.

Originally, she thought that it would take some time to completely resolve the conflict between them, but now it seems that it will be faster than she imagined.

She smiled: "It's a good thing, sister, you can just go, if it's a long time, don't worry about your family, Second Aunt and Shaoheng, I will take care of you for you."

Shen Qingyue looked at her with a grateful look on her face, she nodded, "I really don't know how to thank you, it was the same for the hunting feast last time, Susu..."

"Sister." Shen Yunchu held her hand, interrupted her unfinished sentence, and said earnestly: "You and I are sisters, don't say these kind words, you are my elder sister, I wish you well .”

Shen Qingyue nodded, and held her hand instead, the two sisters looked at each other and smiled, Shen Yunchu felt unspeakably gratified, and had a feeling of making up for the lack and regret of the previous life.

"Then when are you going to leave?" After being touched, Shen Yunchu was a little worried again, "Should I prepare more clothes or something? After all, the conditions in the military camp are definitely not as good as those at home. If you are not used to it..."

Shen Yunchu's tone paused slightly, and the more he talked, the more worried he became, but Shen Qingyue smiled and said: "Don't worry, Second Aunt has packed everything for me, besides, it won't be long, I'll be back in three or five days, and the journey is not too long. The meeting is only a day away, so you don't have to worry."

Hearing what she said, Shen Yunchu nodded thoughtfully, but he couldn't help worrying in his heart. Although Shen Qingyue was different from others, she loved swords, guns and sticks since she was a child, but she couldn't stand that she was also living in a deep house. Born.

When I think about it, after all, I can't compare to those people who spend all day in the barracks. If I go here, what should I do if I don't get used to it?
As she thought about it, she frowned unconsciously. Shen Qingyue saw it in her eyes and couldn't help laughing. Shen Yunchu looked up at her suspiciously. She raised her hand and gently pinched her nose, jokingly. The son said, "You, such a small person, why do you have so many thoughts? Like an old lady."

"I'm only going for a few days. I'm here to tell you the good news. Besides, there's my eldest brother here. Who can bully me?"

Shen Yunchu smiled wryly, although she is not considered an old lady, but adding up her past and present lives, she is indeed in her twenties. Although her body is small, her mind is not small.

Of course, this can't be said, if it is said, it will probably be regarded as a lunatic.

Thinking of this, Shen Yunchu just nodded with a smile, and then said: "Then sister must pay more attention, although it is not far away, it can't be a problem."

The Shen family is not a small family, so it's always good to be careful.

Shen Qingyue nodded, and the two chatted about homework for a long time. Seeing that noon had arrived, Shen Yunchu kept Shen Qingyue for lunch.

The weather was fine today, so the two of them sat in the yard. While talking, when Shen Yunchu raised his eyes, he saw a familiar figure walking into the yard, it was Jiang Yinian.
