The elongated tone struck Shen Nanbao's heart like a zither, and she turned around like a taut string.
At the end of the path extending from the corridor, at the corner filled with bushes, Chen Fangyan stood there.
Countless afterglows passed through the gaps and scattered on his body and face, making him look like a burnt porcelain body with mottled spots. It also made those two eyes black and hole-like. Shen Nanbao It only takes one glance to thrill.
She hurriedly lowered her eyes, clenched her clothes tightly with her hands, and her thin and brittle fingertips lost all color in an instant.
Xiao Yichen had a pair of sharp eyes like a falcon and could clearly see these small actions of Shen Nanbao. He squinted his eyes slightly, but turned around without any emotion and smiled at Chen Fangyan who was walking towards them step by step, "Master Chen said this." Yes, I don’t think that Mr. Chen has been too busy with Hanbao, so I want to show some sympathy for the officials."
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught the shocked gaze cast by Shen Nanbao.
Xiao Yichen slightly licked his lips. Although he didn't understand why she was so abnormal every time about Chen Fangyan, he still explained in her ear: "The official issued an order to promote him to be the governor of Beiting and concurrently serve as the governor of Beiting." Court Protector."
It only lasted a few months.
Was Chen Fangyan awarded the title of Jiedushi?
No wonder he was so respectful when talking to Xiao Yichen earlier, but just now he was so arrogant.
Shen Nanbao was secretly surprised, suppressed the panic in his heart, folded his hands and said, "Mr. Chen."
As soon as he said these words, Chen Fangyan walked to the corridor, and the complicated cloud patterns on his clothes undulated like water waves in Shen Nanbao's eyes.
The memories of the past life also came up, reaching the chest, and breathing became labored.
The hands under her sleeves were cupped, and she calmly looked away. Then she heard Chen Fangyan say, "Get up, the fifth girl doesn't need to be so polite."
Her tone was as familiar as if she had known him for a long time.
Xiao Yichen was unhappy, but there was no trace of anger on his face. He slightly twitched the corners of his lips and asked, "Why are you here, Mr. Chen?"
Chen Fangyan smiled and said, "The smell of alcohol in the front hall was so heavy that it made me dizzy. I wanted to go out for a walk and get some fresh air. I didn't expect to run into the palace commander and the fifth girl here..."
At this mention, his eyes flickered to Shen Nanbao's face who was standing up.
Shen Nanbao shivered suddenly, as if a needle pricked him.
Xiao Yichen naturally saw it, frowned, put his hand gently on the back of her hand, and flew into Shen Nanbao's heart like a feather.
She raised her eyes to look at him in panic.
He happened to be smiling, and the few smile lines at the corners of his mouth were like the poetic landscape painted in a few strokes by an artist. He said silently: "I am here."
Shen Nanbao was startled, and soon his nose became sore.
yes.
He's there.
No one can bully her.
Even Chen Fangyan couldn't harm him.
What does she have to be afraid of?
But she was saving face and was afraid that he would be proud of herself, so she suppressed her tears and smiled at him.
Although such a smile was stiff and hard, and even damaged her beautiful face, the dependent look in those beautiful eyes was very useful to Xiao Yichen, so she didn't care about those flaws, and the same Smiled back at her.
The two of them were communicating as if no one was around, which made Chen Fangyan's face turn dark. He interrupted them by coughing, "The palace commander and the fifth girl seem to have a close friendship."
I thought Xiao Yichen would stop it after just a few words.
Without thinking, he nodded, with an unknown smile on his lips, "I thought Mr. Chen already knew."
Shen Nanbao completely expected that he would say that, and was stunned for a moment.
Also stunned was Chen Fangyan, who even looked at Shen Nanbao with stunned eyes, trying to hear her denial.
It's a pity that Xiao Yichen coughed and stepped forward on his toes, and easily blocked Shen Nanbao behind him, and smiled. This smile was so bright that he said, "Didn't Mr. Chen already see it clearly during the last Qiao Qiao Festival?" Is it clear?"
Chen Fangyan's eyes darkened, and he quickly smiled and said, "His Majesty's words reminded me."
As he spoke, he turned his eyes, looked past Xiao Yichen, and asked Shen Nanbao, "Fifth girl, is your nasal hemorrhoid healed?"
Speaking of this matter, Xiao Yichen remembered the scene of them standing together that night. He twitched his lips and said without waiting for Shen Nanbao to answer: "Thank you, Mr. Chen, I'm worried about you. I've already asked Dr. Mao Ji for a prescription. Miss Wu Take it as directed and you will be relieved in less than a month."
Shen Nanbao trembled slightly and quietly raised his head to look at Xiao Yichen.
Her back was as broad as a mountain, and her neck, where the gold-painted collar and ruff extended, had a small section of pure white flesh. The afterglow outside the corridor was like a gold edge drawn on the glass, shining straight into her heart with panic.
Before she could sigh, Chen Fangyan whispered, "Doctor Mao Ji?"
Shen Nanbao knew very well what he was going to say.
In his previous life, he was looking for a folk remedy for her nasal hemorrhoids, and he went to Dr. Mao Ji. However, Dr. Mao Ji served either nobles or government officials, and he never dared to be too courageous in using medicine.
Shen Nanbao also suffered from it for a long time, but it kept coming back and forth without being cured.
So at this moment, Chen Fangyan naturally gained confidence and said with a smile: "Does the palace commander know that Mao Jiyi's medicine will definitely cure the disease? Anyway, one more prescription is one more way to treat Wu Niang's nasal hemorrhoids, right? Not to mention this medicine It’s for the fifth girl, the palace commander… If he makes the decision for the fifth girl like this, I’m afraid someone is being irrational.”
Seeing Xiao Yichen's face darken, Shen Nanbao hurriedly took a step forward and saluted Chen Fangyan, "Thank you, Mr. Chen. Although one more prescription also has one more solution, the medicine is three parts poisonous and cannot be abused too much." , you still need to plan carefully, I can trust the palace commander, and I am willing to use his and my medicine."
No further words were spoken.
But everyone can hear it.
I can trust Xiao Yichen, so I can’t trust Chen Fangyan?
Xiao Yichen's medicine is good medicine, but Chen Fangyan's medicine becomes poison?
Chen Fangyan was probably angry at these words, so his face was as dark as water.
On the other hand, Xiao Yichen's grin was almost reaching his ears.
So good, so good.
The fifth girl now finally faced him in front of outsiders.
Can it be said that the fifth girl likes him even more?
Shen Nanbao said these words vigorously and with a bit of courage, so after he finished speaking, he suddenly became anxious, lowered his eyes, and waited patiently for his answer.
What can Chen Fangyan say?
After all, it’s someone else’s body, someone else’s mouth, whether someone wants to drink it or not, is it possible that he can still hold someone’s mouth up and drink it?
but……
He glanced at the smug Xiao Yichen on the side and said, "I remember that the father of the palace commander and the father of the fifth girl are old friends?"
These words were full of meaning, and Xiao Yichen's heart skipped a beat when he heard them.
Shen Nanbao looked up and looked outside.
In just a few words, day and night alternated, and the sky turned into a thin blue, as if sinking into the deep sea, filled with unknown light. Gradually, the light got closer, and Shen Nanbao glanced at it slightly. , only then did he realize that it was the servant in charge of holding the lantern, carrying the lantern, stepping into the fist-sized ball of light, and came over.
Shen Nanbao was startled and quickly reacted. He knelt down to the two of them and said, "Commander of the Palace, Mr. Chen, I have been out for a long time and it is time to go back."
After she finished speaking, without waiting for the two of them to say anything, she lowered her eyes and chose the previous path before going back.
There were two worlds inside and outside the hall. Shen Nanbao stepped in from the vast darkness. The brilliant candlelight, the smell of alcohol, and the suffocating turbid warmth all rushed towards him. It was all over my face, like sugar juice had been poured all over my body. It was sticky and uncomfortable.
Old Mrs. Yin, who was sitting by the wall and looking left and right, frowned in a habitual frown when she saw her, "Where's Sister Yi?"
The unexpected question made Shen Nanbaohu stand there.
Her careless look made Mrs. Yin's eyebrows tighten even more, "You didn't go to the convenience store?"
Shen Nanbao couldn't figure out what Mrs. Yin meant, but if Xiao Yichen and the others were told the truth now, Xiao Yichen and the others would be fine. They were just afraid that Uncle Xie would be dragged out again. When the time comes, Shen Nanyi and Rong Qiyi would attack each other, and Kong would be in trouble again. With such a mix-up, I'm afraid she won't be able to explain it clearly just by talking.
What's more, Uncle Xie is like this...
Shen Nanbao thought about it in his mind and shook his head, "I went, why did grandma say that?"
The eyes that Old Mrs. Yin looked at her were clean and translucent, just like the eyes of any innocent person. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's strange... Sister Yi, didn't she go to find you?"
Looking for her?
She and Shen Nanyi have always been at odds with each other, and Shen Nanyi took the initiative to come to her. Doesn't grandma think it's strange?
As if savoring her thoughts, Old Mrs. Yin responded: "In any case, the situation now is as you wish. No matter what Sister Yi did in the past, she has restrained herself now and knows how to work together." Branches and branches, the principle of prosperity and loss, you should not think too much about the past. After all, people’s eyes are in front, which tells us to look forward, isn’t it?”
She has always had a way of telling truths that make sense.
Shen Nanbao didn't want to argue with her. He half-closed his eyes and pretended to be docile and listening to the instruction.
Old Mrs. Yin is familiar with her appearance and yet distant appearance. In the past, she might have thought of letting her die in her house, but now that she has experienced so many twists and turns, she wants to send her as far away as possible.
But after all, you are in the family tree, so you can't act casually, otherwise when others talk about it, they will say some ridiculous things.
While Old Mrs. Yin was thinking deeply, a servant came running over from the side. With a pale face, he hurriedly grabbed the attendant at the door and began to whisper.
Old Mrs. Yin was a little disdainful. She looked away and sighed at Rong Qiyi, "Sister Yi, I know you are impatient that I restrained you, but look at this unruly behavior. Are you so intimidating in people’s eyes?”
Rong Qiyi responded vaguely, but secretly cursed, why are you so unruly? Could it be that the Shen Mansion has rules? My brother has been poisoned by his mistress. Is it a rule to expose him with such a trivial punishment? Is it the rule to swallow a broken tooth into your stomach?
The more Rong Qiyi thought about it, the more she wanted to laugh.
But just as he raised his mouth, a figure rushed over like a rustle, and a gust of wind blew up. The giant candle with arms behind Rong Qiyi was so startled that it crashed to the ground and burst into flames.
Overflowing with brilliance and dazzling array of things, he welcomed the servants like thunder and cracked the earth, and shouted in a low voice, "It's not good, old lady, go and see your eldest daughter!"
