After Sheng Shuihe made up his mind, he called in Sheng Xiang, Gongsun Xi, and Gongsun Yingdun. He asked Sheng Xiang to talk about the details of his finding a house, and then he let him out of the house first, just keeping Gongsun Xi and other trusted subordinates here to discuss the solution.
It was already dinner time after their discussion. Sheng Shuihe glanced at the copper timer in the corner of the room and was about to say that they should separate and have their meals first, but Jinli knocked on the door, came in, and said, "Third Miss said that she felt tired after going out today. She didn’t want to go to the dining room specifically, so she wanted to eat in her room. Miss Sun and Eighth Miss were the same, so they asked me to come here and tell you!"
"I see." Sheng Shuihe hid the smile in his eyes and thought that the girl realized that she had been seen through after she came back to her room. She must be shy and afraid of seeing him for a whil
Seeing Sheng Weiqiao became more and more surprise and angrier, Sheng Shuihe made a decisive decision immediately. He scolded angrily at Gongsun Xi who was waiting outside, "I did tell you before that you should invite the peers or guests of my age to our study and serve them with a cup of tea first. However, Jing Shu Princess is not familiar with me at all; secondly, she is a woman; thirdly, what time is it now? How can you still follow the old rules? Stupid."Gongsun Xi sighed silently outside and said in his heart that though he tried hard to stop the chief from doing wrong things, his chief was too smart for him to handle. However, it didn't matter!There was still a lot of time. He had the confidence and determination to continue to alienate the siblings so that they would always be siblings!As the chief's most trusted and most reliant subordinate, it was his job to defend the chief's fame and future!As long as he was there
Seeing that Sheng Weiqiao was here, Huan Yehe was dumbfounded. She looked at Sheng Shuihe with condemnation. What a stupid man! She came at midnight on purpose to avoid others’ attention. Why was Sheng Weiqiao here?Sheng Shuihe felt terrible at the moment, thinking about how to explain this. He had no time to care about Huan Yehe's feelings.Sheng Weiqiao was waiting for the answer of the two with anger. After a period of silence, Huan Yehe came to realize that she couldn't rely on Sheng Shuihe to solve this!The young Princess glanced at Sheng Shuihe with regrets and hatred. She then said resolutely, "We love each other and will stay with each other for a lifelong time!"At the same time, Sheng Shuihe also explained, "I don't know what Princess means. There must be some misunderstanding!"Huan Yehe was speechless.And so was Sheng Shuihe."..." Sheng Weiqiao's face was pale. Taking a deep br
"It's because Rong Qingzui resides at the Zhao Family House that I am so sure of it. Don't forget that the exam officer this year is Zhao Qiu from the Zhao Family!" Sheng Shuihe said in a flat tone, "Since I am going to sit the Spring Exam, visiting the exam officer before the exam is improper. But visiting Zhao Qiu after the exam is only natural, for the students are supposed to call on the exam officer for guidance. Hence, I will have a very good reason to go to the Zhao Family House, and then I can easily take down Rong Qingzui."Huan Yehe's eyes flashed and she said, "So, you will not admit it.""Admit what?" Sheng Shuihe gave her a cold look."I told you when we first met in Bishui County." Huan Yehe cast a look at Sheng Weiqiao who was listening to their conversation attentively and said, "I was at that time quite suspicious since you denied so quickly without a little curiosity! My suspicion was confirmed when I saw the way Princess Qing
Actually, Sheng Shuihe was also not familiar with Sheng Weiqiao's education before. After all, he came to Sheng Family only two years ago, and he started to prepare for the imperial examination immediately. At that time, apart from his study, he also had to take care of the affairs of Daimao Island from time to time, as well as the plan in Chang'an. What was more, he only took Sheng Weiqiao as his sister back then, so he would not know her well enough.After Huan Yehe's quiz, he also thought that Sheng Weiqiao's knowledge was so poor that she was nothing like a daughter of a metropolitan graduate!However, Jing Shu Princess was present, and Sheng Weiqiao was about to cry, so he could only hide his speechlessness and mediate between them, "As a girl, she doesn't need to prepare for the imperial examination, so we didn't have much expectation for her education."Huan Yehe frowned in disagreement, "Even though she won't take the examination, Miss
At the moment when Sheng Weiqiao was about to go mad, Sheng Shuihe shouted out calmly, "Xi! What takes you so long to send our guest out?! We have no tea and pastries here!"And then he turned to Sheng Weiqiao and said nicely, "Sweetie, what do you want to know? I will tell you everything! But it is late now, and you must be tired and hungry! Have some water! Xi will bring us some pastries, and then we can talk about it comfortably!"Sheng Weiqiao was indeed hungry and sleepy, so she stopped being angry and said in a low voice, "I'm not that hungry. Just answer me now!""Sweetie, Gongsun Family didn't accept the amnesty and enlistment through Mr. Huan for two reasons. For one thing, Mr. Huan didn't want others to know that he was still alive, and he wanted to live secretly on the island. Even though he tried to convince Gongsun Family into doing the right thing, he didn't intend to do it in person."Sheng Shuihe hid his gloating an
Sheng Shuihe's eyes glinted as he chuckled, "Sweetie, of course, I'm supposed to send my teacher back to his hometown upon his decease and organize his funeral, given the obligation of a student. But do remember that my teacher was invited by my brother. And I was not only his student but also Gongsun Family's foster son at that time!"Gongsun Family's former master Gongsun Tu didn't even try to obtain the amnesty from the imperial court through the Royal Preceptor while Huan Guanlan was alive. He certainly wouldn't let out the news that Huan Guanlan passed away on the sea!What if the Emperor, who was so submissive to Shu Sisters, decided to ascribe Huan Guanlan's missing and death to Gongsun Family so that he could whitewash over Shu Sisters' involvement?!Though Sheng Shuihe was relatively powerful on Daimao Island, he wasn't as influential as the last Sea Master, Gongsun Su. Besides, he couldn't simply erase his gratitude for Gongsun Family
Before she finished her sentence, the teacup held in Sheng Shuihe's hand had fallen to the ground with a crash. The former prime killer of Daimao Island, whose ears were sharp enough to catch the footsteps a few miles away through the door in stormy weather, for the first time began to disbelieve what he had heard. His eyes rested on Sheng Weiqiao for a few moments before he croaked, "What... What did you say?""Don't get me wrong!!!" The moment she uttered, Sheng Weiqiao found her words misleading. But Sheng Shuihe's eyes, keen and sharp, enchanted her for a moment before she heard his voice and recomposed herself. Being annoyed, she explained, "I meant I'll surveil you in the coming days! I'll go back to the wing-room, so, you're also supposed to go with me. I've reserved the couch by the bed for you. Don't expect anything more!!!"Sheng Shuihe felt speechless. Of course, he wasn't expecting Sheng Weiqiao to make any sexual suggestions at the moment...
On the early morning of the next day, Sheng Weiqiao was having a sound sleep, but Lvjin pushed her back and forth to wake her up. While making her wash hands and face, she said hurriedly, "A maid of Jing Shu Princess came to give us something. She told me that she promised to give you them yesterday. The maid didn't know what these things were because Jing Shu Princess packed them up by herself. Miss, you should quickly get up. Princess was a noble one and she sent things to you. You'd better see her yourself and express your thanks."Sheng Weiqiao has been spoiled since she was a little girl, so she was not used to getting up early.When she just arrived in Chang'an, she lived in Ningwei Marquis Family. As a result, it was impolite for her to get up late. Then she forced herself to get up early these days.Later, Xu Caikui chased them out of Marquis Mansion and they moved to the apartment bought by Sheng Lanci. There was no need for her to gre
