Chapter 484 The General's Daughter vs. the Deposed Crown Prince with No Heir
Chapter 484 The General's Daughter vs. the Deposed Crown Prince with No Heir (21)
Shen Shuyi knew He Liewen's background. He was originally a poor scholar who failed the imperial examination once. He had no money to continue taking the exam and didn't even have enough for the journey home. He had to set up a shed on the street to write letters for people or sell calligraphy and paintings.
He originally planned to raise enough money to return to his hometown, but unfortunately, he was targeted by local bullies who vandalized his property. He ended up with bruises and not even enough money to buy steamed buns.
Zhou Hongying passed by and saw his pitiful state, so she bought him some food and gave it to him. Seeing that he was from the same hometown, she gave him some money and told him to take the imperial examination in Chang'an again. If he failed, he could leave.
He Liewen lived up to expectations and finally passed the imperial examination in the second year, becoming a candidate for the imperial examination. Although his ranking was not good, he was able to become a county magistrate in a remote county.
Just then, the General's Mansion was recruiting staff, and He Liewen, who did not want to leave Chang'an, went to apply for the job. Unexpectedly, his benefactor was the General's wife.
"After my wife passed away, I felt something was wrong and have been investigating ever since, and that's when I discovered..."
Seeing that he seemed to want to speak but hesitated, Shen Shu asked, "Is it the Lin family?"
“That’s right. I’ve suspected Lin for a long time, but I haven’t been able to find any concrete evidence. However, the year Madam passed away, the two head maids who took care of her resigned and returned to their hometowns. If we can find them, perhaps we can get some clues.”
Shen Shuyi gently stroked the little white cat's back. "So many years have passed, and it's impossible to find it without knowing whether it's dead or alive."
"However, I have a way."
He Liewen raised his voice slightly, "As long as I can help, please feel free to give me your instructions, Miss."
Shen Shuyi smiled gratefully, "Thank you for your trouble, sir. You don't need to get involved in this matter. I have a request, which is that Shen Feng should not be allowed to return to Chang'an City again."
Shen Feng is skilled in martial arts and is a rare talent, but so what? This kind of ungrateful wretch who can't distinguish right from wrong should just be left to rot outside. He'll never be able to achieve anything or rise to prominence.
After seeing He Liewen off, Shen Shuyi handed the "Nightmare Powder" she had redeemed from the system to Gu Hong, and told him to "sprinkle it in the Lin family's room."
Being plagued by nightmares will bring out what a person fears most deep down.
Tortured every day, Lin will eventually go insane and reveal what happened back then.
After arranging everything, Shen Shuyi carried her medicine box to Prince Su's residence to check on Zhao Heng's recovery.
Logically, it is considered unlucky for the couple to meet on the eve of their wedding, but neither Shen Shuyi nor Zhao Heng are superstitious. They met secretly because the illness was the most important thing.
The wedding was presided over by the Ministry of Rites, and the Prince Su's residence had many people from the Ministry of Rites coming and going; it wouldn't be good if they were seen doing so.
Unexpectedly, the Ministry of Rites acted so quickly; in just a few days, the Prince Su's residence was filled with joy.
Shen Shuyi did not disturb anyone and slowly walked to Zhao Heng's bedroom, where the man was already waiting.
When Zhao Heng saw her, the corners of his lips curled up slightly. "Shuyi."
"Your Highness," Shen Shuyi hurried over, noticing his good complexion, "How are you feeling?"
"I should be fine now. I even practiced martial arts this morning, and when I fought He Ya, I didn't feel as suffocated as before."
Shen Shuyi took his pulse. "Hmm, the remaining poison has been cleared. We just need to check the reaction in that area one last time."
"What?" Zhao Heng asked, puzzled.
Shen Shuyi had no choice but to get closer, stand on tiptoe and whisper in his ear, "It's about Your Highness's ability to have children."
Zhao Heng hurriedly stepped back, his ears turning red. He raised his hand and coughed lightly, "I don't usually feel anything."
Shen Shuyi stepped forward again, "Your Highness? Really?"
"If I cannot cure you, then my medical skills are not yet up to par."
"You're very capable, Shuyi." Zhao Heng's voice was restrained and hoarse.
Shen Shuyi moved closer and closer, "Your Highness, do you hate me?"
"Never."
"Then why did you avoid it?"
"What are you thinking about?"
The girl's fragrance grew stronger, and Zhao Heng's eyes became increasingly deep.
He could no longer restrain himself and pulled her into his arms, lowering his head to kiss her lips. Shen Shuyi was startled by his recklessness, and before she could even open her mouth in surprise, he had already taken her lips.
She never imagined that the Prince Su, who was so gentle and refined, had such a wild side, as if he wanted to devour her.
Zhao Heng supported the back of her head with one hand and wrapped his other arm around her waist, transferring his warmth to his fiancée in front of him.
Shen Shuyi's cheeks flushed, and she let out a soft whimper, her almond-shaped eyes glistening with tears from the kiss.
Zhao Heng liked her voice, especially when she was sobbing and calling his name, and he liked her lying softly in his arms.
Shen Shuyi felt his palm brushing against her through her clothes, and her lips were filled with Zhao Heng's fresh bamboo leaf scent.
Just as she was about to run out of breath, the man pulled away slightly, still reluctantly biting her lip.
Inside the bedchamber, only the sound of their breathing could be heard.
Zhao Heng held her tightly in his arms, letting her feel his touch, and whispered in her ear in a hoarse voice, "Little miracle doctor, have you found out yet?"
He kissed Shen Shuyi on the cheek and said, "I'm all better now."
Shen Shuyi felt very uncomfortable being poked, and the system's data on Zhao Heng's body suddenly flashed through her mind.
It's at least 20cm!!
She was so scared. Her head felt dizzy, and she instinctively opened her mouth to breathe.
"Shuyi," Zhao Heng's voice was low and husky, "I wanted to kiss you last time."
Shen Shuyi looked up at him blankly.
Zhao Heng was in a good mood and lowered his head to kiss her forehead. "Call me Yan Zhi."
"These are my handwritings."
Shen Shuyi buried her face in his chest and whispered, "Yan Zhi."
Zhao Heng felt his heart pounding with her cries; he wanted to hold her and didn't want her to leave.
I want to see her every day.
Just as Shen Shuyi was about to leave, the man lowered his head and kissed her lips again.
The man was tall and imposing, and with a possessive air, he held her tightly in his arms, not wanting to leave even a gap.
Summer was approaching, and both of them were dressed in light clothing. Shen Shuyi could feel Zhao Heng's firm and muscular chest and his burning body temperature.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhao Heng, relying on his last shred of reason, released the person in his arms and said in a hoarse voice, "Wait a little longer, the auspicious day has been chosen, it will be next month."
"Shuyi, you will soon be my queen."
Shen Shuyi's eyes were hazy like autumn water. She looked up at the man whose lips had turned red, and then quickly buried herself in his arms. "You're so fierce now. You'll definitely bully me after we get married!"
Zhao Heng gently caressed her slender waist with his large hand, embracing his beloved fiancée, a burning fire raging in his heart.
He cupped Shen Shuyi's face in his hands, looking at her cherry-red lips, "I won't bully you." He was too busy hurting her to even think about it.
……
The news that Prince Su and General Shen's eldest daughter were about to get married spread throughout Chang'an.
"Although Prince Su has no children, he still holds the prestige of a prince, so it wouldn't be a disservice for Miss Shen to marry into his family."
"I heard that Prince Su's mansion not only has no maids, but also no concubines! Won't Miss Shen be the only mistress of the mansion from now on? Life couldn't be more pleasant."
"Heh! What's the difference between marrying into that family and living like a widow? You'll never have any children of your own."
"Some people are just sour grapes. If I could marry a man like Prince Su who is both scholarly and martial, what does it matter if I don't have my own children? I can just adopt one."
