Women dressed as men: powerful officials

After a brief silence, Shen Yichuan broke the silence with a smile.

"Look at me, I've strayed off topic again. Let's get back to the Taiwei Mansion. Taiwei Song now has two sons and one daughter."

Shen Yichuan paused as he spoke and glanced at Song Xiujing.

There was no emotion in Song Xiujing's eyes, they were so calm that it was impossible to tell what her attitude was.

Bei Yao had instructed early in the morning that if Song Xiujing asked about the Song family, he must explain everything clearly in detail, so that Song Xiujing could know both himself and the enemy.

Similarly, if Song Xiujing asks about it on her own initiative, it means that Song Xiujing can still help. If not, then she is making other plans.

But seeing Song Xiujing's look, Shen Yichuan couldn't help but hesitate, wondering if Bei Yao's actions were a bit too much.

In one class, there was only Shen Yichuan’s narration.

When Shen Yichuan finished speaking, it was time to get out of school.

Xu Yuan stood up and was about to catch up with Shen Yichuan when she saw Shen Yichuan stop and took the initiative to talk to her: "Young Master Xu, can you please spare me a moment to talk?"

Xu Yuan grabbed his cloth bag, said to Song Xiujing that he was leaving first, and immediately followed.

Behind her, Cheng Zeyan saw that Song Xiujing's eyes were always following Xu Yuan, and he couldn't help but clench his fists. After Xu Yuan left, he smiled warmly and said to Song Xiujing, "Ajing, let me take you back."

Hearing Cheng Zeyan's words, Song Xiujing's face suddenly turned cold.

Although she was wearing a veil, making it difficult for people to see her expression, her pair of cold eyes still gave off a hint of coldness.

Song Xiujing said: "Thank you, but it's not necessary."

Song Xiujing still remembered Cheng Zeyan's difficulty with Xu Yuan.

Moreover, even if she didn't make a wish, she didn't want to look at someone like Cheng Zeyan for fear of dirtying her eyes.

After Song Xiujing finished speaking, she stood up and left.

Cheng Zeyan clenched his fists and made a crackling sound. His eyes turned red and he cursed, "One or two of you really think you are a piece of shit."

When the people around heard what Cheng Zeyan said, they were afraid of bringing bad luck upon themselves, so they immediately packed up their things and left.

Shen Yichuan brought Xu Yuan to the teahouse and went directly to the second floor.

After sitting down by the window, Shen Yichuan said, "I know you are asking about the city defense map. I have asked a reliable person to send it back to the capital. You don't have to worry."

"Why didn't you escort the city defense map away? Is it because Song Xiujing is still in Sishui County?"

"Yes and no. I stayed because I had more important things to do."

After Shen Yichuan finished speaking, he looked at the little master in front of him and couldn't help but recall the familiar feeling he felt when they first met.

So he asked again: "Xuanyuan, have we met somewhere before?"

Xuyuan's heart trembled.

She didn't know why Shen Yichuan suddenly asked this question again.

But she can guarantee that, except in her past life, she has never seen Shen Yichuan in this life.

But...whether in the past life or this life, Shen Yichuan always said the same thing.

Shen Yichuan always felt that they looked familiar.

Xu Yuan didn't answer, so Shen Yichuan asked again: "Why don't you speak?"

Xu Yuan came back to his senses and said honestly, "I was just wondering where Mr. Shen's déjà vu came from, because we have really never met before."

"Maybe it's just my illusion."

Shen Yichuan smiled. He raised his hand and poured tea for Xu Yuan, saying, "I called you here today because I have some questions for you."

"I may not be able to answer Mr. Shen's questions."

"But you are the only one in the world who knows this." Shen Yichuan pushed the teacup out, then slowly poured himself a cup of tea, and then asked, "What did you hear when you went to the Geshu tribe?"

Xu Yuan smiled, "Whether you heard something or not, given our relationship, there is no need for me to tell you the truth, right?"

Hearing this, Shen Yichuan lowered his eyes and said with a bit of resentment, "Xuyuan, do you believe it or not, I am saving you?"

"You are trying to trick me." Xu Yuan naturally didn't believe it.

What Shen Yichuan said just now is, and also is not.

This means that something must have happened from last night to today that made Shen Yichuan decide to stay.

What's even more coincidental is that today Shen Yichuan asked her if she had heard anything in the Geshu tribe.

In this case, the reason why Shen Yichuan stayed must be the same as the one who called himself "Shen Renyao".

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan became a little curious about what could be more important than Song Xiujing and the city defense map.

Will it be the battle at the end of the year?

Shen Yichuan choked, "Why would I try to trick you into saying something?"

"Of course it is. Weren't you just trying to trick me before?"

Xu Yuan lowered his eyes and looked at the tea in front of him, with no intention of picking it up to taste it.

She was afraid that the tea was poisoned.

After hearing Xu Yuan's words, Shen Yichuan remembered that he had deliberately mentioned the incident of Xu's family being confiscated and exiled in class. Not only did he mention it, he also forced Xu Yuan to express his opinion.

He did want to trick Xu into making a wish, but that was all Bei Yao's instruction and had nothing to do with him.

Shen Yichuan said, "It was just for schoolwork before, and I didn't want to remind you, but you gave me the city defense map, so I should return the favor."

"Is this favor just to continue to trap me?" Xu Yuan smiled and told the truth: "I might as well tell you that I don't know anything. I just showed people the way and got this thing. Mr. Shen doesn't have to go to the trouble of asking me."

"If you don't know anything, this matter would be easier to handle."

Hearing Xu Yuan's words, Shen Yichuan breathed a sigh of relief for no reason.

When Chen Shan gave him those letters last night and knew that Bei Yao wanted to win over Xu Yuan, he was worried that Bei Yao would tell Xu Yuan about the Geshu tribe.

Because, if you make a wish like this, you can only be tied to Beiyao’s boat.

Now it seems that perhaps Beiyao did not trust Xu Yuan, or perhaps the truth had not been fully discovered yet, so Beiyao did not tell Xu Yuan.

In short, I know nothing about making a wish.

In this world, the more secrets you know, the easier it is to die.

What’s more, this is a secret involving two states.

He didn't know that making a wish was actually a form of protection for him.

Hearing Shen Yichuan's vague words, Xu Yuan said, "Mr. Shen is keeping us in suspense again."

"I'm not keeping you in suspense on purpose. I'm just doing you a favor because you gave me the city defense map."

Still talking about the previous words, Shen Yichuan finished speaking and continued: "Xuyuan, Tianqi and Geshu are going to fight, and your family is still outside Sishui County. If a war really breaks out, I'm afraid you will be affected. Find a place to stay in Sishui County as soon as possible to avoid the suffering of the war."

When Shen Yichuan's first words came out, Xu Yuan was stunned.

She looked at Shen Yichuan until he finished speaking, then asked, "How do you know that Tianqi and Geshu are going to fight?"

She knew because she had been there.

But why did Shen Yichuan know?

I don't understand making a wish.

"I don't see the same things as you, and naturally know different things."

After Shen Yichuan finished speaking, the smile on his face disappeared, "Xu Yuan, I only told you about this matter, you must not reveal it to anyone else."

When Song Xiujing left Sishui County, he would probably be able to verify the contents of those letters and then return to Beijing.

He couldn't wait for the war.

Therefore, this news can be regarded as his repayment for the wish he made in advance.

After Shen Yichuan finished speaking, he added: "The weather in Sishui County is going to change. You can find an umbrella or put on more clothes. No matter what, the most important thing is to survive safely."
