Shen Zhiyan brought Lu Mei into his study.
The bookboy who knew Shen Zhiyan's habits prepared a basin of warm water and hand towels.
But Shen Zhiyan did not wash his hands immediately. He sat in front of the desk, gently rubbed his thumb pads, and asked the frightened Lu Mei in a gentle tone about her and Yu Qiao's identities.
Lu Mei gradually felt relieved when she saw that this gentleman was gentle and courteous and looked like a wise minister: "Back to my lord, the man just now is the slave's master, Yu Cai from Lianyi Palace."
She is actually a concubine in the palace?
Shen Zhiyan raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
For the first time, he had doubts about the vision of the man above him. With such a stunning beauty in the palace, she actually likes Wen Baoer?
Your Majesty must have never seen this Yucai man.
Shen Zhiyan lowered his eyelids with an incomprehensible expression that was hard to tell. Then he raised his eyes and Wen Sheng explained the wife-swapping farce to Lu Mei.
After hearing this, Lu Mei stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, and her tears fell down like this: "Isn't this humiliating my lady? Where is the saying that concubines give gifts to ministers? Wow, oh, why is my lady so miserable? ? He was targeted by his mistress since he was a child, he was bullied when he entered the palace, and now he is being rewarded casually like this? Wuwuwu..."
She was so stimulated that she suddenly used the term "not entering the palace".
Shen Zhiyan did not interrupt Lu Mei.
Lu Mei sniffed: "Oh, Sir, you still don't know something. My young lady was attacked by someone in the palace not long ago, and her ears can no longer hear, and she can't speak."
Shen Zhiyan frowned. He didn't expect this? The person who committed the murder must be a concubine who knew Yu Qiao's appearance. She was afraid that Yu Qiao Cheng'en would be favored so she committed such a murderous act.
Lu Mei looked at Shen Zhiyan cautiously. The emperor's words are hard to catch up with. In this situation, she and the young lady could only rely on the adult in front of them.
So, she tried her best to speak for her young lady: "My lord, I know this. You and your wife are the couple of Qin Se and Ming. You must be unhappy when you are suddenly separated. But my lady is really innocent in this matter." The young lady is a concubine. If she is let go home like this, she will definitely not get any good results. After all, she is also a concubine. Can you just treat it as raising two idle people at home? The servant is quick at work and will help the house. "
Not fast?
That's a little bit, but not much.
After all, His Majesty's move was very inappropriate. As long as he is a man, if his wife is suddenly taken away, he will feel a little unhappy in his heart.
But for Qin Se and Ming's dependents, this really doesn't happen.
Shen Zhiyan's eyes fell on the Buddhist scriptures on the desk. The family scholar who initiated him worshiped Buddhism, and he was also influenced by it, and he loved Buddhism. In the early years, I read the ancient books left by my ancestors and was influenced by the Wushu Sect. He was also forced by the Wen family to marry a wife, and he had no conjugal affection for Wen Baoer.
Shen Zhiyan considered it carefully and said: "Your Majesty's actions mean that he gave me your young lady as his wife. Your young lady is now my wife, Shen Zhiyan. You just stay in the Shen Mansion. There is no need." Go home. Don’t worry, I won’t embarrass others because of His Majesty’s absurd behavior of exchanging wives.”
After hearing this, Lu Mei breathed a sigh of relief.
The book boy Qingzhu listened and understood. He had been with Shen Zhiyan for many years, and he could figure out a little bit of Shen Zhiyan's thoughts. He rolled his eyes and suddenly added: "My lord and the first lady got married not long ago. Because the lord was seriously ill before, and he has not yet slept with the first lady. We have always slept separately. The relationship is indeed not as deep as other newlyweds."
When Lu Mei heard this, her eyes lit up: "It just so happens that my young lady has not inherited the dragon's favor and is still innocent."
Shen Zhiyan was aroused by Lu Mei's frankness, his ears were a little red, and he glared at Qingzhu: "Talk too much."
Lu Mei also realized that she had made a mistake and lowered her head.
Shen Zhiyan lowered his eyes and asked a concerned question: "Since we are husband and wife, I haven't asked your lady's name yet."
"My lady's surname is Yu, and her last name is Qiao."
Afterwards, Shen Zhiyan asked Qingzhu to call the housekeeper and take Lumei down to arrange a place to stay.
He sat at the desk and silently recited Yu Qiao's name several times in his mind. Still sighing, he put away the Buddhist scriptures on the table and placed them deep in the bookshelf.
Forget it, his mind is no longer calm, so he still shouldn’t mess with Buddhist scriptures.
"Green Bamboo."
"What's the matter, sir?"
Yu Qiao's face appeared in Shen Zhiyan's mind. Of course, he had heard of Wen Baoer's title of "the most beautiful woman in the capital", but Wen Baoer was still not even half as good as Yu Qiao. Yu Qiao's appearance is too great. With his current strength, he cannot protect her at all.
"Qingzhu, tell me to go down and tell the people in the mansion to keep their mouths shut and not to reveal any information about my wife.
Shen Zhiyan's face was hidden behind the lamp, making his expression unclear.
He was able to secure the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple at such a young age, and he had many tricks. He was still confident that he could control the Shen Mansion.
Yu Qiao slept particularly soundly after Shen Zhiyan left.
The moment she woke up and saw Lu Mei's smiling face, she knew that her long-term meal ticket for this world was secured.
The days were no different from those in the palace, sleeping and sleeping like this, and listening to Lu Mei's chatter from time to time. The food is much better than in the palace, but there are more people to eat.
Yu Qiao raised his eyes and glanced at the elegant gentleman sitting opposite.
The other party noticed Yu Qiao's gaze, with a smile in his eyes and a gentle smile.
Yu Qiao immediately looked away and continued eating.
System 514 is really going to be pissed off by Yu Qiao.
What a great opportunity for interaction!
She only cares about eating!
She really did what she said, she said she wouldn't do it, but she really didn't do it at all!
System 514 felt sorry for the little wallet he had left, so he had no choice but to squeeze out time to find another part-time job to make extra money.
The host cannot provide any support, so one has to rely on oneself.
During this period, Shen Zhiyan's workload suddenly increased. He thought about it and knew that it was the order from the person above. He had thought that although there was nothing between him and Wen Baoer, the emperor was suspicious, which would have a great impact on his career.
Moreover, Feng Xu and Wen Baoer didn't hide anything at all, and some officials had already met Wen Baoer dressed as a concubine in the palace. Before Wen Baoer got married, she had always been known as "the most beautiful woman in the capital". She was born in the Duke's palace and was keen on attending banquets. She knew many people who looked familiar to her. Shen Zhiyan always gets a lot of sympathetic looks when he is working. Some people have already tried to figure out the holy will and started to make things difficult for him.
Maybe leaving the capital is a good choice.
and--
He looked out the window, thinking of Yu Qiao at home, and felt hot in his heart.
Moreover, leaving the capital may be more conducive to developing relationships. After all, husband and wife shouldn't be so cold, nor should they always be separated.
Seeing Shen Zhiyan's petition for transfer from the capital, Feng Xu raised his eyebrows and approved: "He is quite smart."
"Who is it?" Wen Baoer was grinding his inkstone aside.
"It's nothing." Feng Xu shook his head with a smile, leaned forward and clasped Wen Bao'er's chin with his other hand, and kissed her on the lips.
After Shen Zhiyan received the reply, he immediately packed his luggage. He was transferred to Liangzhou as the prefect. Liangzhou was a long way away, and he was afraid that the inconvenience on the road would make Yu Qiao uncomfortable, so he left it to the housekeeper for a long time.
Lu Mei also received the notification and was busy packing Yu Qiao's clothes. They left the palace in a hurry that night, leaving all their clothes and jewelry in the palace, but Shen Zhiyan was particularly concerned about Yu Qiao and bought a lot of clothes for Yu Qiao. Yu Qiao lives in Wen Baoer's yard. There were traces left by the previous owner Wen Baoer everywhere here before. However, less than half a month has passed and all the traces left by Wen Baoer have been covered, as if he had never been there.
"Madam, all the hard work has been rewarded. Your Excellency is very considerate of Madam!" Even though Lu Mei was cleaning up, she kept talking, praising Shen Zhiyan, and even changed her name to Yu Qiao as "Madam..." It would be great if Madam’s body could recover as before.”
Lu Mei started to feel sad again.
Yu Qiao followed the principle of treating it as fart if he didn't understand it, and played with the nine-ring chain next to him. Shen Zhiyan also brought this. He knew that Yu Qiao was deaf and mute now, and he was afraid that Yu Qiao's life would be boring, so he specially collected some gadgets for Yu Qiao.
Yu Qiao fiddled with it for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out.
System 514 mocked Yu Qiao's IQ and directed Yu Qiao to play Nine Links. One person has been working on it for a long time, but nothing has come out.
"Hmph, a product of advanced interstellar civilization, a high-quality product from a system manufacturer." Yu Qiao sneered in the consciousness space.
System 514 starts pretending to be dead.
At this moment, she heard someone else chuckle, and before she could see who it was, a pair of well-jointed hands handed over the warm chestnut cake.
Yu Qiao immediately abandoned Jiuluan and specialized in chestnut cakes.
