Women dressed as men: powerful officials

Shen Yichuan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "Xu Yuan, do you like to repay evil with kindness so much?"

"I just wanted to..." Xu Yuan didn't finish his sentence before he realized what was happening and said, "Mr. Shen, I just feel that you are getting in my way in Sishui County."

The implication is: I don’t want to help you, I just want you to leave Sishui County.

Shen Yichuan did not take the city defense map, so Xu Yuan kept holding it.

After a long while, Shen Yichuan sighed and spoke with more sincerity, "Xuyuan, do you know how much the thing in your hand is worth in Beijing?"

"If it's Mr. Shen, he will probably be able to realize his ambitions. If it's a wish, I'm afraid it will be a death warrant."

Make a wish and lower your eyes.

She naturally knew the value of the city defense map, so she was shocked more than once as to why that person gave the city defense map to her.

She had also thought about going to the capital with the city defense map, but after hearing what Shen Renyao said, she came to her senses.

Now, let alone overturning the verdict for the Xu family, she can no longer afford to do so.

Just the question of how to meet the emperor with the city defense map is a problem.

What's more, she was not the only one who made a wish while looking at the city defense map.

After all, this city defense map was taken from Shen Renyao, and should be returned to the Shen family.

She went with the flow and did a favor, which was the best of both worlds.

"You are quite self-aware." Shen Yichuan laughed, thinking of Xu Wenxian, and finally took the city defense map and said, "Since you were able to get it, you must know what it is. If you have it, it will only bring you disaster. I will accept it, as I owe you a favor."

Shen Yichuan put away the city defense map, and suddenly thought of something and asked, "Where did you get this?"

After saying this, Shen Yichuan remembered that he had made a wish and had to take several days off.

At the same time, another person who left Sishui County was Beiyao.

It is impossible to get the city defense map by making a wish alone, so, this was obtained by Beiyao?

Shen Yichuan's expression changed again and again. When he figured out the relationship, he heard Xu Yuan say, "Mr. Shen, you don't have to worry about how I got it, but do you remember what I said?"

"I came to Sishui County for the third daughter of the Song family. When the people from the Song family arrive, I will naturally leave. By then, even if you want me to stay, I will not stay."

"Just for the third young lady of the Song family?"

"nature."

"But I heard that there are other people who came for Concubine Xing." Xu Yuan looked at Shen Yichuan with a wary look in his eyes.

She could trust Shen Yichuan, but she didn't trust Shen Renyao.

That person is much more cunning than Shen Yichuan.

He burned down more than a dozen tents of Geshu. This person was too cruel.

Moreover, if Shen Renyao came for Concubine Xing, then why did he go to the Geshu tribe?

Xu Yuan always felt that there were other things that she had not seen.

And that war is closely related to those things.

However, after hearing Xu Yuan's words, Shen Yichuan's eyes became more alert: "Why do you know about Concubine Ying?"

"Someone told me."

"Ridiculous." Shen Yichuan couldn't help but sneer, "Concubine Xing has been in the palace for many years. She doesn't like government affairs, and she doesn't fight for power. How could she send someone to do something?"

After hearing Shen Yichuan's words, Xu Yuan felt as if a ray of light had torn open the muddle in her mind.

Shen Yichuan's words are more credible than Shen Renyao's.

So the conclusion is... Shen Renyao is lying.

Yes, if Concubine Xing really had secretly agreed to spend her life with someone else and had a token of love, why would she send people out to look for her after so many years?

Perhaps, Shen Renyao is not Shen Renyao.

Xu Yuan let out a breath of foul air, not wanting to dwell on it any longer, and immediately said, "Then I probably heard it wrong."

"You must have heard it wrong." Shen Yichuan repeated again.

Xu Yuan nodded and said, "Regarding the city defense map, I don't need Mr. Shen to owe me a favor. I just want to ask Mr. Shen a question."

"what?"

"Mr. Shen, are you following the Third Master?"

This time, Shen Yichuan did not answer immediately.

The previous scenes emerged in his mind one by one. Shen Yichuan remembered something and suddenly asked, "Do you know the Third Master?"

"do not know."

"The gesture you use to shake the dice is the same as that of the Third Master." Shen Yichuan said, "What's more, even in the capital, most people call the Third Master the Third Prince. There are very few people who call him the Third Master directly..."

The moment Shen Yichuan finished speaking, his eyes suddenly turned cold.

He raised his hand, and the feather fan was like a dagger, pressing against Xuyuan's neck, "Who are you?"

As Bei Yao said, Xu Yuan knows the capital city too well.

It’s like being a native Beijinger.

"It doesn't matter who I am. I just want to remind Mr. Shen that instead of looking for a powerful person to rely on, it is better to strengthen yourself and become that backer."

Xu Yuan took a step back, leaving the range of the feather fan, and said, "Besides, I also said that I will not be an enemy of Mr. Shen. What I do is neither against morality nor against the law of nature, and it will not hurt the Third Master behind you. I don't need Mr. Shen to help me."

"You are a very strange person." Shen Yichuan sneered.

Even though he was used to seeing all kinds of people in the capital, he had never seen Xu Yuan clearly.

He made a wish.

Xu Yuan had nothing good to say to him.

The person who refuted him harshly was Xu Yuan, but the person who gave him the city defense map was also Xu Yuan.

He didn't know whether Xu Yuan was repaying evil with kindness or whether he did it on purpose to do him a favor.

If you want to make friends with him.

But she couldn't wait to let him leave Sishui County.

On the other hand, the Cheng family has sent more than ten beautiful young ladies to curry his favor.

Shen Yichuan really couldn't understand what Xu Yuan wanted to do.

It was hard for him to imagine how a person could be so complicated.

Moreover, Xu Yuan has too many shadows of him and Bei Yao.

But he also checked and found that Xu Yuan had never left Sishui County.

“I feel weird, but I’m just doing what I’m supposed to do.”

After Xu Yuan finished speaking, he politely took another step back and said, "I have finished speaking, and I am leaving now."

Seeing Xu Yuan turn around without hesitation, Shen Yichuan raised the fan in his hand several times and finally said, "Wait a moment."

Xu Yuan turned around and asked, "Mr. Shen, what else do you want?"

Shen Yichuan took a long breath and said, "That day in the school, I was indeed too aggressive. I apologize to you."

Shen Yichuan was talking about the time when he asked Xu Yuan in the private school what he thought about the Xu family being executed.

Xu Yuan said, "It's okay."

Shen Yichuan said again: "So, there is one more thing I want to tell you."

Hearing this, Xu Yuan stopped and turned back to say, "Mr. Shen, please speak."

"Not everything in this world is about interests. The relationship between me and the Third Master is not mixed with interests. He is not my backer, and I am not his follower. I have never compared him with a master and servant."

Xu Yuan was stunned. She had never thought that Shen Yichuan would say such a thing.

Seeing Xu Yuan was silent, Shen Yichuan said, "Xu Yuan, I know you have great ambitions, so I want to remind you that the capital is a place where all kinds of people come together. You have no roots, just like a floating duckweed. If you want to find a shelter, Third Master is your only choice."

Xu Yuan understood what Shen Yichuan meant and asked, "Mr. Shen, are you trying to win me over?"

"I want to save you." Shen Yichuan looked at Xu Yuan and said slowly, "Third Master, you are different from the Third Prince that people say you are. Xu Yuan, one day, you will understand."
