Chapter 114 Don't Cause Trouble
Xu Yuan was stunned. She didn't even know what words to use to describe this scene.
More and more people came to watch the excitement on the street.
Seeing Xu Yuan remained silent, Shen Yichuan asked again, "Why is Mr. Xu still so fascinated by the scene as before?"
On the side, Qi Shengzhu looked at Xu Yuan, then at Shen Yichuan, but still couldn't figure out what the relationship between the two was.
Xu Yuan came back to his senses, concealed his surprise, and asked, "Master Shen, why are you here?"
Shen Yichuan raised his fan, pointed upstairs, and said simply: "Have some tea."
Xu Yuan nodded and asked, "Then I wonder if the Second Young Master is here too?"
Shen Yichuan raised his eyebrows and was about to answer, but then he remembered what Bei Yao had told him and said, "He's not here."
Xu Yuan nodded without saying anything, but said to Sun Wenjie: "Master Sun, let's go."
After going to Dali Temple, she still had to rent a house.
If we can't find a suitable place to stay today, we will have to stay in the inn.
Make a wish to save some money.
Sun Wenjie knew that now was not the time to ask about the relationship between the two, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
Qi Shengzhu bowed and said, "Lord Sun has official business to attend to, and my daughter has returned home. Thank you very much for today, young master."
Sun Wenjie nodded.
Qi Shengzhu left with a group of people.
Sun Wenjie turned around and clasped his fists towards Shen Yichuan and said, "Mr. Shen, I am also taking people back to the Dali Temple."
Although Shen Yichuan does not hold an official position, he is the legitimate son of the Grand Tutor's Mansion and is currently studying with his father in Wenhua Palace.
If Shen Yichuan took part in the national examination, I think he would be able to enter the Hanlin Academy and become a close minister to the emperor within a year.
No one in the capital dares to offend such a person.
"Wait a moment." Shen Yichuan called Sun Wenjie and smiled even more. "I'll go with you."
Sun Wenjie was stunned: "Why?"
Xu Yuan also said: "Mr. Shen, aren't you busy?"
"Didn't I just make a wish and say that there is another person who knows about this?"
Shen Yichuan tapped his feather fan gently, and said gracefully, "Unfortunately, it was me. Since Xu Yuan believes in me, then we must not let her go to the Dali Temple alone."
After Shen Yichuan finished speaking, he looked at Sun Wenjie with a smile and asked, "Or does Lord Sun think that he can get to the bottom of this matter by himself?"
Shen Yichuan's hint was somewhat obvious.
Countless possibilities suddenly emerged in Sun Wenjie's mind.
Xie Xiaocheng's letter only said that there was something fishy about the previous battle, without mentioning other details, but the last sentence was: "This case involves a lot of people, and it must be brought to the attention of the emperor."
Sun Wenjie also knew that Xie Xiaocheng's letter was not written to him. After all, he didn't even know who Xie Xiaocheng was, but he recognized the official seal.
However, no matter who Xie Xiaocheng wanted to remind, he was implicitly reminded that this matter must have been done by a high-ranking official in the capital. Otherwise, how could the emperor know about it?
I'm afraid that this case can only be decided by the emperor.
He had just read the letter, which did not mention any content, but Shen Yichuan came upon hearing the news. Either he came to obstruct the investigation, or he came to help Xu Yuan.
No matter which one it is... he must treat it with caution and must not get involved in the court disputes because of this matter.
But what should we do in the current situation?
Sun Wenjie thought about it again and again, and finally looked at Xu Yuan and said, "Young Master, what do you think?"
Shen Yichuan said he knew.
Then the person in front of me must also know this. In this case, it is better to let him make the decision.
Xu Yuan heard this and said, "Since Lord Sun asked for my opinion, I will tell you the truth. The case I reported is not suitable for Mr. Shen to participate in. Now that the case has been submitted to the prefect of Shuozhou, it is only a matter of time before it is submitted to the Dali Temple in the capital. I am going ahead just to escort the evidence. Mr. Shen does not need to worry about it."
After Xu Yuan finished speaking, he looked at Shen Yichuan and said, "Mr. Shen is old, you should study hard and not get involved in these disputes."
Shen Yichuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He leaned over and whispered in Xu Yuan's ear, "Xu Yuan, Sun Wenjie is talented and upright, but he is only a junior official in the Dali Temple. Do you think he can defeat the prince? The news of your entry into the capital has already reached the Song family. If you go to the Dali Temple now, you will be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth."
After Shen Yichuan finished speaking, he stood up and spread out his sleeves, then said, "What do you think? Think about it again."
Making a wish to remain silent is a dilemma.
If she lets Shen Yichuan go with her, people in the capital will certainly regard Shen Yichuan and she as being in the same faction in the future. If she tries to overturn the case for the Xu family, Shen Yichuan will inevitably be implicated.
But if she still refused, and if what Shen Yichuan said was true, then she would never come back...
Seeing Xu Yuan still hesitating, Shen Yichuan smiled and continued to add: "Xu Yuan, you should think clearly about your identity and your enemies. Now, in the capital, you are unable to protect yourself."
Xu Yuan closed her eyes. Shen Yichuan's face in her past and present lives kept flashing through her mind. Finally, she said, "Then I'll trouble you, Master Shen."
Shen Yichuan smiled, opened the feather fan again and said, "No trouble, I'm happy to do it."
Sun Wenjie didn't understand, and didn't ask too many questions, so he walked to the front and led the way.
Shen Yichuan and Xu Yuan fell behind, chatting idly.
Shen Yichuan asked: "When did you arrive in Beijing?"
"yesterday."
"You have a good pace. Did you encounter any danger along the way?"
"I'm just a nobody, how can there be any danger?" Xu Yuan paused and asked, "How is he?"
"Who?" Shen Yichuan didn't quite understand.
Xu Yuan lowered his voice a little and said, "Second Young Master."
"Oh." Shen Yichuan thought of Beiyao who had just left, and couldn't help but smile: "Not too well, he got a serious illness when he returned to Beijing, and is still recuperating in the mansion outside the Third Master."
"Are you sick? What's wrong?" Xu Yuan paused.
"Maybe it's because of the unfamiliar climate." Shen Yichuan looked at Xu Yuan and couldn't help gossiping: "When did you and him become so close?"
Shen Yichuan didn't dare to ask Bei Yao about this question, so it would be more appropriate to ask Xu Yuan.
After so many years, he has come to understand Bei Yao's character.
Bei Yao looks gentle, but he is actually very cold-hearted. There has only been one person who made him take so much care of her, and that was the Queen.
But now, there is one more wish.
According to Beiyao's previous habits, if he could not win over the talents he liked, he would definitely get rid of them as soon as possible to avoid them becoming enemies.
But it’s different for making wishes.
Bei Yao does not want to win over Xu Yuan now, but he also has no intention of getting rid of Xu Yuan. Not only that, he even sent Gongzi Qin to protect Xu Yuan, deliberately creating an opportunity for Xu Yuan to get to know the powerful official.
Shen Yichuan really couldn't figure out why Beiyao would help Xu Yuan so much.
"It can be considered as a friendship of life and death."
Xu Yuan passed it over in passing, thinking that the discomfort from the local climate would soon heal, and then he instructed: "I don't know if he will ask about me. If he does, please keep it a secret, Master Shen."
"Do you really want to cut off ties with the two of us?" Shen Yichuan asked back.
"I've said before that being close to me is not a good thing. After what happened today, Mr. Shen should stay away from me, concentrate on studying, and don't cause trouble."
After making the wish, he said no more.
Shen Yichuan looked at Xu Yuan's back, and for a moment, he didn't know how to respond.
After a long while, he followed Xu Yuan and said, "I have been called Mr. by you for a few days. If I really sit back and do nothing, wouldn't it be a waste of all my reading of so many sage books?"
