Chapter 776 Shen Shuyi feels very happy
Shen Jingzhen asked herself that now she no longer cared what others thought of her, nor did she care about those so-called powerful people.
In her opinion, they are nothing but a bunch of hypocritical sanctimonious people, wolves in sheep's clothing!
But when facing Xie Jingchi, she would uncontrollably feel some fear in her bones.
At this moment, meeting those sinister eyes, he felt a chill all over his body, chilling him to the bone.
Shen Jingzhen avoided his gaze and pretended to be calm: "I was just talking casually, why bother with a little girl like me, Mr. Xie?"
Xie Jingchi sneered: "Just talking? It sounds like Madam Feng is dissatisfied with the marriage granted by His Majesty."
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Bochang came forward and smiled apologetically at Xie Jingchi: "Thank you, sir, for your forgiveness. My humble wife was outspoken. I apologize to you on her behalf!"
Xie Jingchi sneered and looked directly at Feng Bochang: "I think some things cannot be replaced. What do you think, Lord Feng?"
Feng Bochang glared at Shen Jingzhen with a gloomy look, suppressing his anger.
Ever since he married Shen Jingzhen, his career has not been smooth, and he was transferred away from the Imperial Guard by His Majesty. Now he is no longer a favorite in His Majesty's eyes.
Normally he would not bring someone with a bad reputation like Shen Jingzhen when he went out, but today was different, because today was the wedding of Shen Jingzhen's brother.
Considering that Shen Jingan would surely pass the imperial examination in the future, he brought people to congratulate him. After all, they were relatives by marriage.
But he didn't expect that in just a moment, she offended Xie Jingchi.
This idiot doesn't understand how important Xie Jingchi is in His Majesty's heart!
Feng Bochang turned to look at Shen Jingzhen, with a smile on his face and a gentle voice, but his eyes made Shen Jingzhen feel creepy.
"Ah Zhen, apologize to Mr. Xie."
Shen Jingzhen's whole body trembled slightly, her throat tightened, and she clenched her fingertips. She could clearly see the warning in Feng Bochang's eyes.
The man in front of her gradually merged with the shadow that whipped her at night.
Shen Jingzhen turned pale, and immediately looked at Xie Jingchi and said, "It was my words and actions that offended Lord Xie. I hope Lord Xie will forgive me."
Shen Shuyi looked at this scene and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Look, who said Shen Jingzhen can't learn the rules? Isn't she learning it very well?
Xie Jingchi raised the corners of his lips and said in a cold voice: "Mrs. Feng should apologize not only to me, but also to Princess Mingzhu."
Shen Shuyi didn't expect that Xie Jingchi would vent her anger.
Although she didn't need it, it was undeniable that it felt good to have someone protecting her.
The people around watched the excitement calmly, and they obviously did not expect that the Princess Mingzhu, who had not yet married, actually had such an importance in Xie Jingchi's heart.
"What are you waiting for? Why don't you apologize to the princess? I think you have learned all the rules your mother taught you these days in vain!" Feng Bochang said in a cold voice.
Shen Jingzhen turned around slowly and looked at Shen Shuyi with an unpleasant expression.
"Second sister, I'm sorry... I shouldn't have said that. I might have scared you. Please forgive me."
Shen Jingzhen spoke reluctantly, and although her words were insincere, she admitted her mistake in the end.
Xie Jingchi said coldly: "Some time ago, someone impeached Brother Feng for bribing the commander of the Imperial Guards. I don't know if this is true."
Feng Bochang's heart tightened and his face turned pale.
He did spend money in the hope of finding an opportunity to be transferred back to the palace, but he did it secretly, so how could Xie Jingchi know about it?
Xie Jingchi smiled and said slowly: "If one day, Lord Feng is dismissed, remember to put the blame on Madam Feng."
Shen Jingzhen and Feng Bochang were both shocked and looked at Xie Jingchi in disbelief.
Xie Jingchi was telling him clearly that because Shen Jingzhen had offended Shen Shuyi today, he was not going to let this matter go easily.
Feng Bochang was speechless for a moment. When he came to his senses and wanted to say something, he saw Xie Jingchi walking towards Shen Shuyi.
Shen Shuyi thought that this man was really handsome. In his sea-blue brocade robe, he looked even better than princes and nobles.
"I'm thinking of renovating the Xie Mansion, but I don't know what you like. If you're free recently, you can visit often. If you have any ideas, I'll have someone prepare them." Xie Jingchi's voice was gentle, and he was obviously in a good mood.
Shen Shuyi smiled and his mood improved.
"Nothing else. Just prepare a study room for me. It would be best if there were some flowers and plants in the yard. There doesn't need to be too many things in the room. I don't like trouble."
Shen Shuyi was not polite. After all, since she was going to marry Xie Jingchi, she would have to live there for many years.
Shen Shuyi felt very happy that Xie Jingchi came to ask her.
Thinking back to her previous life, although Xiao Tingshan kept saying that he liked her, he never asked about her preferences. He even left her alone in Duke Chengguo's Mansion to endure the harassment from her parents-in-law.
Thinking about it carefully, Shen Shuyi also felt that he was blind in his previous life.
Unfortunately, all the people around her in her previous life were lying to her. Qin Xuerong was lying to her, her so-called sisters and brothers were lying to her, and her best friends were lying to her...
From beginning to end, the world she saw seemed never real.
Seeing that she didn't know what she was thinking, Xie Jingchi's eyes darkened.
She must not know that at this moment, the loneliness and self-mockery in her expression make people feel distressed.
Xie Jingchi couldn't help wanting to hold her hand, but in the end he just clenched his fingers and hid them in his sleeves.
He repeatedly told himself to wait a little longer until he had the final say.
"I asked someone to find a white puppy and raise it in the yard. If you feel bored, you can take it out to play." Xie Jingchi's eyes fell on Shen Shuyi and he said casually.
Shen Shuyi came back to his senses: "..."
Does she look like someone who can't sit still?
But since he was so interested, Shen Shuyi didn't want to reject his enthusiasm: "Thank you."
As they were talking, the wedding procession had returned and the entire front hall was bustling with activity.
Shen Jing'an and Liang Wanjun tied red silk around their bodies, stepped over the fire basin, and came to Shen Jingchuan and Qin Xuerong together.
Shen Jingchuan looked excited. He felt that it was a rare opportunity for the marriage to go so smoothly. Although it was a little hasty, it was not easy.
Qin Xuerong even had tears in her eyes. Fortunately, An Ge'er worked hard. Although a lot of money was invested, it was also because An Ge'er was talented.
Now that fame and fortune are within reach and I have accomplished the most important thing in my life, I can pursue a stable career in the future.
After years of hardship, Qin Xuerong finally felt proud of herself.
"The auspicious time has come, let's worship heaven and earth~!"
Shen Shuyi watched coldly from the side, just hoping that Liang Wanjun would not regret it in the future.
Soon, the bride was brought into the room and the banquet began.
Shen Jingan was in high spirits, and her face was red at the banquet. Yuping came to Shen Shuyi's side and whispered, "Miss, Hongying got some more receipts for Madam's pawning at Jinglou."
Shen Shuyi raised the corners of his lips: "It seems that she is anxious, but it is also true that there are many guests today, it is a good time to take action."
"Miss, that Hongying..." Yuping didn't know how Shen Shuyi was going to deal with her. Would he spare her life?
Shen Shuyi's almond eyes were cold and indifferent: "Yuping, I'm not that kind."
