Chapter 496 Why are you here?

From Si Yu's expression and tone, Shen Liuzhen saw a lot of information about Yishan, which he never knew.

But he didn't want to know.Everyone has their own difficulties and stories, and the more they know, the more unnecessary sympathy they will have.

He has already done so to death, there is no other way to go except to let him die, there is no need to ask for trouble.

So he didn't ask "why", but looked away, looked at the glass of wine in front of him that was just smelling, stood up dignifiedly, shook his sleeves, and said:

"Well, then I'm leaving."

Si Yu didn't say anything, just watched Shen Liuzhen's every move, followed behind him, brewing emotions, and prepared to stage a scene of saying goodbye to her lover when she opened the door.

Although, she looked at this person's back, thinking about what he had done, and those speculations about him, she couldn't act it out...

A smart and sinister person is always scary, especially when he has a very pleasant and kind face, it is even more creepy when he thinks about it.

"By the way," Shen Liuzhen turned around suddenly and asked, "I asked you to find a substitute, have you found it yet?"

Si Yu's eyes were dazed for a moment, and then she remembered that he was talking about finding a substitute for General Xie, her pupils shook and she said:

"People like him are not so easy to find. Having his body does not necessarily mean his heroic spirit, and those who are heroic don't have his face. What's more, General Xie has been on the battlefield for a long time, is skilled in martial arts and in a high position. The aura of lying down is something that ordinary people can have..."

"Of course I know these things, can't I find people who are five points similar?" Shen Liuzhen asked dissatisfiedly, turning his body sideways.

Si Yu struggled for a moment, she didn't know what Shen Liuzhen meant by this move, she just found it difficult:
"I'll think of a way."

Suddenly she thought of something and said:
"By the way... it seems... I'm just guessing, it seems that the housekeeper of Duke Ma's mansion is also looking for such a person."

When Shen Liuzhen heard this, he froze for a moment, and immediately turned around and asked:

"Oh?...how did you see it?"

"I heard from a very powerful Ren Yazi. I described what I needed without mentioning the name of the general. But Ren Yazi complained, are you looking for a slave or a master? Why is it the same as the person Ma Guogong wants... So I guess, maybe. They are also looking for a substitute for General Xie."

Shen Liuzhen's eyes were serious, and he fell into deep thought. After a while, he said:

"I see."

Then turned and left.

……

……

In front of Princess Huaizhen's mansion.

Xie Yuan looked up at the huge plaque above his head, and what he was holding in his hand was a memorial he had written but could not deliver to the little emperor.

Logically speaking, with her current official position, she must have the opportunity to go to the pilgrimage, and she can send it face to face.

But I don't know if the emperor did it on purpose or not, because she is a military commander, she has never been promoted to the Grand Court Meeting, and she doesn't have to go to the Small Court Meeting.

Recently, on the grounds that she should take good care of her injuries, she said that as long as she is not summoned, she does not need to enter the palace.

So since she heard the public trial of the war outside the city last time, she never saw the face of the little emperor again.

Maybe... it's just because there are many people in the palace who are obstructed by Duke Ma, so she has no chance to face the saint?

Xie Yuan thought about it for a while, but only felt a headache and didn't move for a long time.

Sun Tian, ​​who was standing beside her, stood upright and straight, but kept sneaking glances at Xie Yuan's expression from the corner of his eyes.

He didn't know that their general was a girl before, so he only felt that Princess Huaizhen was abominable, but now that he knew it, he faintly felt that Princess Huaizhen was pitiful.

After a while, he finally couldn't help asking:
"General...Princess...does she know?"

"Do you know what?" Xie Yuan woke up from his contemplation and asked with a stern face.

"No...it's nothing..." Sun Tian quickly swallowed his question back.

Xie Yuandanfeng's eyes flickered, and he suddenly realized what he was talking about.

She subconsciously turned her head to look at the people behind her, then turned her head, pointed at Sun Tian with the memorial in her hand, pursed her lips tightly, and showed a warning look.

Sun Tian lowered his eyes guiltyly, not daring to say anything, to show that he knew he was wrong.

"Call the door!" Xie Yuan ordered angrily.

"Yes!"

Sun Tian responded swiftly, and hurried up the stairs to slap on the door knocker of the Princess Mansion.

The moment the door opened, the porter inside saw Xie Yuan standing at the door. Although he didn't exclaim in alarm, his eyes lit up immediately, and he quickly directed people to report back.

"The son-in-law is back." The concierge greeted with a smile, and quickly opened the door to let Xie Yuan in.

It's been so long... There is no one in the world who doesn't know that the son-in-law is the only person the proud princess will please.

"Thank you." Xie Yuan said coldly as a response.With that said, he lifted his foot and stepped on the threshold.

Her personal soldiers lined up and followed into the yard in an orderly manner, and were placed in the front yard by the servants of the Princess Mansion.

When Princess Huaizhen heard that Xie Yuan was coming, she was overjoyed at first, and prepared to dress up to meet her.But combing and combing, she felt sad for being so humble.

So she was no longer in a hurry, and just waited for Xie Yuan to come in with such a slumped face.

When Xie Yuan came in, what he saw was Princess Huaizhen kneeling on the seat, and the palace maid standing behind her, gently and slowly stroking her hair and dressing her.

For a moment, Xie Yuan thought of his mother in memory, she was sitting in front of the dressing table like this, being served and dressed.

When she was young, she liked to watch from the sidelines.

It's not about how to comb, nor about jewelry, but because at such moments, there is always a kind of gentle and quiet beauty, which is the appearance in the painting.

The same is true for Princess Huaizhen at this time.

Such a moment is one of the rare ones that makes her feel that a girl also has the beauty of a girl, and it's not all bad.

However, this kind of beauty has nothing to do with her.

Princess Huaizhen turned her head, and saw Xie Yuan's tall and straight figure, with his back to the light, a black silhouette cast by the sunlight.

He was born well, even if it is such a shadow, it is still the appearance of his heart.

Princess Huaizhen's deliberately cold face melted unconsciously, and asked with a smile:
"How did you come?"

As soon as she finished asking, she saw what Xie Yuan was holding in his hand, and her complexion suddenly collapsed, revealing a look of disappointment.

She is the emperor's daughter, her father is the emperor, and her younger brother is also the emperor. She has seen a lot of memorials, so she can tell at a glance.

"That's right, if it wasn't for business, you wouldn't have come to see me."

After Princess Huaizhen murmured, tears welled up in her eyes, as if she couldn't control it.

Her changes scared the maid who was combing her hair at a loss, and she looked at Ms. Mo stiffly.Ms. Mo hurriedly called someone and retreated together.
