Tyrant, calm down

Chapter 706 The secret hidden in the dagger (2)

Just as Shen Jingshu was immersed in the fantasy of embracing gold and silver mountains, the person in front of her suddenly stood up, took a few steps to the side, and then knelt down facing her.

"Sir, Dharma Guardian Zhao Cheng, I have seen the Holy Maiden!"

With a "thump" in his heart, Shen Jingshu suddenly turned around and stared at the person in front of him in disbelief.

"You... what did you just say?"

"My lord, Dharma protector Zhao Cheng, I have seen the saint!" Zhao Cheng repeated, his voice sonorous and forceful.

A moment of silence.

All the people in the room stared at Zhao Cheng in surprise, but they had different thoughts in their hearts.

What surprised Shen Jingshu was that Zhao Cheng was her guardian?

What shocked Murong Di, Ming Yue and Ming Zhu was that she was actually the saint of Xuanyuan Kingdom, and this person who suddenly ran out was actually her protector.

The three of them all have some understanding of Xuanyuan's national system, knowing that among all the countries, only Xuanyuan has national teachers and saints.

But in Xuanyuan territory, the saintess has a high status, second only to the king, and above the national teacher and all the courtiers.

Even in the hearts of many people, the status of the saint is much higher than that of the king, and she is almost a god-like existence.

It took a long time for Shen Jingshu to digest Zhao Cheng's words.

She blinked, stared at the person in front of her for a while, then bent over to hold Zhao Cheng's arm.

"Brother Zhao, you get up first."

"Thank you saint!" Zhao Cheng got up.

Shen Jingshu looked at him, thought for a while, and withdrew his hand.

"Brother Zhao, sit down first, I have something I want to ask you."

Zhao Cheng naturally knew what she wanted to ask, and also knew that the past was complicated and complicated, and it could not be explained clearly in a few words, so he sat down as he said.

"The saint has something to do, but it's okay to ask, the minister will know everything and talk about it!"

Zhao Cheng is undoubtedly not used to Shen Jingshu like this.

She is not used to what Zhao Cheng calls her and Zhao Cheng's attitude towards her.

In the past, Zhao Cheng and her were friends, they had a sincere friendship, they were equal in status when they got along, there was no difference between a monarch, a minister, a master and a servant, and they were very comfortable.

But now, from Zhao Cheng's eyes, she can clearly see that he has regarded her as his master and no longer a friend, and there is more distance between his words.

She stared at Zhao Cheng, and said earnestly: "Brother Zhao, you should call me Miss Shen as before. I'm really not used to it when you say "saint" on the left and "saint" on the right. Besides..."

She glanced outside the house, and there was obvious deep meaning in her eyes.

"This person has eyes and ears, I'm afraid... if I don't pay attention one day, others will know my identity, which will only increase trouble."

With a flick of his eyes, Zhao Cheng understood, and nodded with a smile.

"I understand. Sister Shen, if you want to ask anything, just ask. As long as I know it, I will not hide it."

Shen Jingshu smiled, that's right, this is Brother Zhao in her impression.

She turned around, walked back to her seat and asked: "When you gave me the dagger back then, did you already know that I am the Second Miss of the Shen Mansion?"

She remembered that when she went to the iron shop for the first time, she was dressed as a man, Dr. Shen, who was famous all over the capital. At that time, no one in Handan City knew that she was a woman except herself.

But it was the first time that Zhao Cheng gave her the dagger. She really wanted to know if he had recognized her at the beginning. Was her disguise technique so bad?
"I didn't know you were you at the time." Zhao Cheng replied, "I was ordered by my father to find an owner for this dagger, but I never met the right one, and then you showed up. "

"Thinking about it now, all of this is really God's will. If it wasn't for God's will, this dagger would not have landed in your hands by such a coincidence."
