However, Xia Yu did not think that there was anything excessive in Xie Nanxing's request.

Originally, he asked Xie Nanxing to solve the only problem of money. It was normal that Xie Nanxing was unwilling to help with other things.

Xie Nanxing hoped to help after he had the bargaining chips in hand, and Xia Yu thought that made sense.

But Xun Zhan didn't think so.

He has given out all his chips, and it would be too disrespectful for Xie Nanxing not to accept them.

"Humph." Xun Zhan smiled wantonly and pressed his hand on the desk: "Xie Nanxing, you are still quite arrogant now."

"That's not the case. After all, my Lord Shen is much older than Lord Xun."

Two glares fell on Xie Nanxing's head at the same time, and the tit-for-tat momentum was broken by this teasing.

As it concerns the dignity of a man, Xia Yu was unwilling to admit this: "You and Wang Heng are not much different."

As if no one knows how to talk nonsense.

After Xia Yu said this, he looked at Xun Zhan, wanting to ask if this was Xun Zhan's way of fighting back.

Xun Zhan waved towards Xia Yu, and Xia Yu walked to Xun Zhan's side, waiting for Xun Zhan's next words.

Xie Nanxing looked at the two people making faces, with a smug smile in his bright eyes: "No, Shen Jinmo is more than five years older than Master Xun, how can he not be considered older?"

So, what Xie Nanxing was talking about was the age difference.

Xun Zhan and Xia Yu have their heads full of nonsense and they just keep imagining nonsense.

Xun Zhan and Xia Yu suddenly laughed after hearing this explanation.

Xun Zhan held Xia Yu's hand in front of Xie Nanxing and kissed it on his lips as if to show off.

Age has never been a big deal.

When you have the ability to protect the people you want to protect and keep them by your side, that is a skill you can brag about.

In terms of situation, Shen Jinmo is definitely inferior to Xun Zhan.

Xie Nanxing had never seen Xun Zhan look so childish, but when he thought that Shen Jinmo in front of him was also different from others, Xie Nanxing understood that this was an exclusive customization for Xia Yu.

The atmosphere became harmonious and Xun Zhan was willing to talk properly.

"Xie Nanxing, you will be too far away to protect Shen Jinmo in the future, so I will protect him for you once, and use it as a bargaining chip this time."

Xun Zhan would not tell Xie Nanxing in advance about the people he was going to plant. Even if the target was Shen Jinmo, Xun Zhan would not reveal his trump card.

This is the city of power where intrigue and deception are rampant. With Shen Jinmo's style of doing things, Xun Zhan has every reason to believe that if one day his interests conflict with Shen Jinmo's, Shen Jinmo will sacrifice him without blinking an eye.

They would not become friends who appreciate each other just because they spent the Spring Festival together.

"Your Highness, Lord Xun, my Shen Jinmo is the most generous and kind."

As soon as Xie Nanxing finished praising, he saw Xia Yu and Xun Zhan take a deep breath at the same time.

Obviously not recognized.

If you don’t agree, then don’t agree. Not everyone is as clear-headed as Xie Nanxing.

Picking up the teacup and drinking a cup, Xie Nanxing was not affected by the two of them at all.

"Since arriving in the capital, my Lord Shen has been doing everything to make all parties happy. If you want something, just go get it. It has nothing to do with my Lord Shen."

The official positions that Shen Jinmo wants to hold in his hands are only one or two out of ten. If Xun Zhan wants to make plans, he can do it freely.

That’s all I have to say. This is the goodwill that Xie Nanxing deliberately expressed.

If Xia Yu is the one who sits on the throne in the future, Xie Nanxing hopes that Xia Yu will not let Shen Jinmo become the sacrificed chess piece because of the gossips of the world.

Xia Yu accepted the favor and said, "Xie Nanxing, could you please not mention today's incident to Wang Heng?"

Especially, Xun Zhan threatened Xie Nanxing.

Shen Jinmo is now invincible in the court. Xun Zhan's leg has just healed a little, and it is hard to say whether he will be beaten again.

With the corners of his lips slightly raised, Xie Nanxing would not nod.

He just wants to file a complaint.

At noon, a servant stood in the study and announced, "Thank you, Master Shen is here to take you home for dinner."

Xie Nanxing stood up from the desk, all his gentleness was restrained at this moment.

There are some ugly words that Xie Nanxing needs to mention again: "In the past, when His Highness and Lord Xun talked to me about the future, they mentioned that Nanxing's decision would not involve Shen Jinmo."

"What happened today was what Nanxing wanted, and Master and His Highness should know what Nanxing really wants."

Therefore, Xie Nanxing will not reveal anything about Shen Jinmo in the future.

All Xie Nanxing did was to earn money, and then distribute the money to Xun Zhan and Xia Yu according to the transaction.

Xia Yu stood up and walked to Xie Nanxing: "You have done a great job in your work these days, and I will do my best to give you what you want, regardless of whether you back down today or not."

There are too many imperfections in this divine capital, so many that Xia Yu wants to try his best to protect a peaceful life.

Xia Yu also hopes that one day, everyone living in the Divine Capital will be able to remember where they came from and hold their hearts in their hands as they return.

Shen Jinmo ignored the strange looks from the passers-by, stood upright beside the carriage, and looked in the direction where Xie Nanxing used to come towards him.

With Shen Jinmo's current status, as long as he wants to enter any mansion in Luoan except the Princess's Mansion, he can not only enter, but also receive superb hospitality.

However, Shen Jinmo has recently distanced himself from court officials and even added the materials embezzled and accepted bribes to the national treasury, which has left the people of the Divine City puzzled.

Is it normal that treacherous officials suddenly stop doing bad things and even investigate cases of corruption and bribery?

Could it be that after being beaten up by Xia Hong last time, he suddenly changed his personality and wanted to be a good official?

No matter how they thought about it, when they saw Shen Jinmo carrying Xie Nanxing into the carriage as if no one was around, they felt that Shen Jinmo was a traitor.

Who can expect a man who disregards etiquette and marries a man in defiance of the world to have a change of heart and be a good official?

This kind of person has no heart at all.

The carriage moved slowly forward. Xie Nanxing did not sit on the stool, but instead went straight into Shen Jinmo's arms.

After twists and turns for a while, Xie Nanxing finally found a softer place and stopped struggling.

"Why are you a little later today than usual?"

Shen Jinmo took out two small pieces of dried meat from Xie Nanxing's snack bag and put them in Xie Nanxing's palm, then he brought some warm tea and found a chance to feed it to Xie Nanxing.

"The Grand Tutor asked Ah Shun to find me on his way back from the court, saying that he would go to Zhongqing Mountain to see an old friend in a while, and asked you to go to his place."
