The little dark guard who travels between two lives
Chapter 22 Ask Brother Shen to borrow someone
Su Peiyun thought of the old man Qin who was killed by her, and she still felt a little guilty. In any case, the old man had always treated her very well.
But it was this incident that completely won the master's trust. The woman in the veil who contacted him always looked down on him.
This time she finally smiled at herself and told Su Peiyun clearly who she was. She asked Su Peiyun to call her Aunt Suqin.
Only then did Su Peiyun realize that Aunt Suqin was actually Concubine Shen's person in the palace. Aunt Suqin told Su Peiyun that she would be Aunt Suqin's distant niece. In this way, Su Peiyun would have some connection with Concubine Shen in the palace, and it would make sense even if her relationship with Concubine Shen was discovered in the future.
Su Peiyun was immediately stunned. She never thought that her master was actually Concubine Shen in the palace. Su Peiyun had heard some news about Concubine Shen when she was with Ji Wanran.
Concubine Shen's maiden name was Shen Yining. She was the daughter of the current Grand Commandant Shen and the niece of Empress Dowager Shen in the palace. She held a high position. She and Ji Wanran were also close friends and were known as the two beauties in the capital. Both of them were from high-class families, born in noble families, and were both talented, famous, and beautiful.
Such a noble lady was far beyond the reach of someone like Su Peiyun. Su Peiyun remembered that once Ji Wanran took her to a flower-viewing party for the daughters of officials in the capital. The people who came and went were all daughters of noble families. When they heard about Su Peiyun's identity, the well-mannered ones just smiled with their round fans and said nothing. The more arrogant ones sneered at Su Peiyun and asked her how she had the nerve to follow Ji Wanran.
Su Peiyun was so ashamed that she went home crying. She hated Ji Wanran in her heart, because she knew that she was not from a high family, but she still dragged her to such a party and let others look down on her.
Su Peiyun remembered that Miss Shen was still in the boudoir at that time. She was surrounded by people, radiant and dazzling, and looked at herself arrogantly being laughed at. But later, somehow, this Miss Shen entered the palace. Although she was made a concubine when she entered the palace, the current emperor was nearly 40 years old after all, and no matter how high the position of a concubine was, she was still a concubine.
Su Peiyun couldn't understand why Concubine Shen was willing to be a concubine. At the beginning, Miss Shen was very ambitious and relied on her talent and beauty, but she didn't take the powerful and noble children in the capital who admired her seriously.
No, Miss Shen, who had not entered the palace, only saw one person, and that was Qin Mingxuan. Su Peiyun finally understood why Aunt Suqin said that the masters in the palace hated Ji Wanran as much as she did, for the same reason, they loved Qin Mingxuan but could not get him, and they hated him because of love.
Su Peiyun thought of Shen Yining in the palace, and couldn't understand why Shen Yining cut off all feelings and entered the deep palace after failing to get the love she wanted.
Thinking of the fact that the child of Ji Wanran was taken away and the old man Qin was poisoned, Su Peiyun couldn't help but shudder. Compared with herself, this Concubine Shen was even more ruthless. However, with such a master, she had the confidence and things went much more smoothly.
Before his death, Old Master Qin asked Qin Mingxuan to take good care of Su Peiyun, so that she could stay with Qin Mingxuan with a clear conscience in the future. She didn't believe that Qin Mingxuan and Ji Wanran would always be so loving and sincere. She thought that one day she would get the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and snatch Qin Mingxuan away, and take away everything from Ji Wanran.
Su Peiyun thought of this and calmed down secretly. Now she couldn't panic. She had to quickly send a message to her master and ask him to send someone to deal with this matter. Once Wu Ma brought people to her husband's home, her lies would be exposed, which would bring a series of troubles.
She turned around and called Yinshuang, the maid beside her, to come in. Ever since she had beaten the capable little maid to death last time in order to teach that stinky girl Xinhe a lesson. Because she had lost a close confidant in a fit of anger, she was also scolded by her master for being stupid. Fortunately, the master sent Yinshuang to come to her side and listen to her orders.
Su Peiyun gave a note to Yinshuang and told her to go to the Fuxin Dim Sum Shop on West Street to find the people left behind by Aunt Suqin and pass on the message.
Xin He gave Su Peiyun a critical blow in person. Seeing Su Peiyun's panicked look when she heard that she was going to pick up her daughter, Xin He laughed in her heart: "Humph, you bad woman, this is just the beginning. My counterattack is still to come, just wait and see."
Xin He knew that Su Peiyun would definitely try her best to prevent her parents from discovering the truth, and she was alone after all. In order to prevent the people sent by her parents from seeing the truth, she would definitely contact the people behind her. She must keep an eye on Su Peiyun to see who she would contact.
But how to keep an eye on her? I can't follow Su Peiyun every day as a little girl, and I can't find my mother or father, so who should I find?
By the way, let’s go find Brother Shen. Xinhe remembered that when Uncle Yu left, he not only left behind a servant for Yu Shen, but also several subordinates.
In her previous life, Xin He was trained in Uncle Yu's secret guard camp. She knew that the secret guard camp was secretly established by the current emperor and left for the prince. It was a mysterious organization that no one knew about. So the few people that Uncle Yu left for Yu Shen should be secret guards.
Thinking of this, Xin He was secretly happy in her heart. With the secret guards, it would be easy to deal with. Tracking and delivering messages were their specialties. However, they were Brother Shen's people, not her own people, so she could only ask Brother Shen for help.
Xin He decided to persuade Yu Shen to get him on board. It wasn't a pirate ship anymore. She was doing the right thing to protect her family with Brother Shen.
Having made up her mind, Xin He immediately took action and asked Liu Niang to make her a plate of delicious snacks. She personally carried the snacks to Yu Shen's Shensi Garden. Liu Niang wanted to follow her because she was afraid that she would drop the plate, but Xin He refused to let her go and left Liu Niang outside the garden. She walked into Shensi Garden alone with her short legs.
Yu Shen only stayed in Qin Mingxuan's study for one hour every day. During this hour, Qin Mingxuan explained books and articles to Yu Shen and answered his questions. The rest of the time, Yu Shen read books and practiced calligraphy in his own Shensi Garden.
The master's wife arranged his Shensi Garden very well and even built a small study room for him. Shensi Garden was quiet and elegant, very suitable for careful reading. But this tranquility was often disturbed by that fat girl recently.
"Brother Shen, Xin'er has brought you some snacks." Hearing the fat girl's voice outside the study door, Yu Shen helplessly put down the brush in his hand and looked helplessly at Ming Mo who was serving beside him.
Ming Mo understood and immediately went over to open the study door for Xin He. He bowed to Xin He and said, "Greetings, Miss!"
Xin He was always happy to see this little book boy with smiling eyes. She thought of the majestic chief steward of the secret guards in her previous life. Oh, the contrast was too great. She smiled and called out, "Hello, Brother Mingmo."
Ming Mo was so scared that his legs went limp and he almost knelt down to Xin He: "Miss, don't dare to call me a slave like that. If Master Yu hears, he will beat me to death. Call me Ming Mo instead!"
Yu Shen heard Ming Mo's pleading tone, and the corners of his mouth rose quietly. He felt that the little girl was deliberately calling Ming Mo brother to tease him. He looked at Xin He, and sure enough, he saw the little girl covering her mouth with her hands and giggling, watching a plate of snacks in her chubby little hand about to fall to the ground.
He quickly walked forward, took the plate from Xinhe's hand and placed it on the desk, then turned to Ming Mo and said, "Okay, go down." Ming Mo hurriedly walked out of the study, stood at the door of the study and let out a long sigh.
Xin He was very proud of herself for scaring Ming Mo away. Humph, can't this lady deal with you, the chief steward? The more she thought about it, the prouder she became. When she looked up and saw Yu Shen's scrutinizing eyes, she immediately retracted her proud smile, stood properly and greeted Yu Shen: "Hello, Brother Shen! Brother, you must be tired. This is the snack Xin He made for you personally. Come and try it."
Yu Shen didn't believe her and asked suspiciously, "Did you make it?" "Oh, I asked Liu Niang to make it for you. It's delicious. Try it." Xin He handed a piece to Yu Shen in a servile manner.
Yu Shen looked at her and saw that she didn't take it. It was obvious that he didn't trust her little hands to be clean. Yu Shen picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth: "You fat girl, you are so attentive to me for no reason. You are either a traitor or a thief. Tell me what's the matter?"
Just now he complained about her dirty hands, and now he says she is fat! The fat girl is most annoyed when Yu Shen calls her fat, but she dares not say anything, not to mention that she needs help from others, so she can only bear it secretly.
Xinhe put on a smile again and looked at Yu Shen: "Brother Shen, I want to borrow someone from you." "Borrow someone? Borrow someone? Do you want to borrow Mingmo to accompany you to catch fish or to climb a tree to catch birds?" Yu Shen looked at Xinhe with some amusement.
This fat girl has been dragging Ming Mo around the garden all day, playing with cats and dogs, and has never said hello to her. Now she comes here and seriously asks to borrow someone.
Xin He was not happy, because she had important things to do, and she caught fish and birds just to get information in the garden. Unfortunately, the whole backyard was managed by her mother, and she didn't get any information. But she had an important goal this time.
She saw Yu Shen standing next to the desk, looking at her with a stern face. His expression was very similar to that of Yu Shoufu in his previous life. She muttered to herself, "So Yu Shoufu has been like this since he was a child. He is really not cute at all!"
Yu Shen saw her mumbling with her head down. He couldn't hear what she was saying, but he felt it was not good. He asked her, "What are you mumbling about?"
Xin He quickly patted the stool with a smile and asked Yu Shen to sit down. It was too high and it was really difficult to talk: "Brother Shen, sit down and listen to Xin Er."
Yu Shen sneered, "You little dwarf, you only grow flesh but not height!" Xin He widened her eyes and glared at Yu Shen, "If Brother Shen talks about Xin Er like this again, Xin Er will get angry."
Yu Shen lowered his head and shouted into Xinhe's ear several times: "Shorty! Shorty!" Then he looked at Xinhe proudly, waiting to see Xinhe's angry look.
Xin He clenched her fists and stared at Yu Shen. After staring at him for a while, she suddenly lost her temper. She remembered the purpose of her visit. Forget it. Since I have a favor to ask of you, I will bear it!
She opened her fist and pulled Yu Shen's sleeve: "Brother Shen, Xin'er asks you, is mother good to Brother Shen?" "Of course, Master's wife treats Shen'er very well!" Yu Shen answered without hesitation. He had never seen his mother, and the mother in other people's mouths was always an illusory shadow in his mind. Only the love that Master's wife truly treated him was real. All the warmth of the family came from the relationship and care of Master's wife.
Xin'er smiled with eyes curved, of course her mother is fine. "Then what will you do if someone wants to harm your mother?" Xinhe continued to ask Yu Shen. Yu Shen stood up suddenly and almost knocked Xinhe down beside him: "Who is it? Who wants to harm Master's wife?"
Xin He quickly pulled Yu Shen's sleeve to steady himself, and she pulled Yu Shen back to sit on the stool. "Hey, Brother Shen, don't be so anxious. Listen to me."
Xin He ran to the door of the study, poked her head out and looked outside, then ran back to Yu Shen and whispered in his ear, "Brother Shen, I found something wrong with Aunt Su. She's a bad person!"
Yu Shen also knew about Su Peiyun. Although Yu Shen was not good at speaking, he had been looked down upon by others since he was a child, so he was very good at reading other people's expressions.
Although Su Peiyun looked weak, her eyes were actually full of scheming and calculation. Especially when Su Peiyun saw her master and his wife, Yu Shen could see the complicated look clearly.
Sometimes he heard his father jokingly talking about this cousin with the master, and Yu Shen more or less understood it.
Yu Shen looked at the chubby girl, who looked at him solemnly with a serious expression. He asked Xin He, "What do you want?"
Xin He looked at the door again. Yu Shen couldn't bear to see her sneaking around like this, so he went forward and closed the door. "Go ahead, there are no strangers in my yard. It's very safe."
Xin He then said with relief: "Brother Shen, did Uncle Yu leave a few people to protect you before he left Beijing?"
She did not say that those were secret guards. She did not know whether Yu Shen now understood what Uncle Yu was doing for the emperor. She only said that they were people protecting Yu Shen.
Yu Shen nodded. Daddy did leave two guards for him before he left Beijing. One was called Seventeen and the other was called Five Nine. What strange names. Daddy told him not to use these two people easily, and they would protect him secretly.
Yu Shen asked Xin He: "Doesn't the master have guards too? Why don't you go find the master?" Xin He slapped him and said: "Brother Shen, you are stupid. If you go find Daddy, it will cause a lot of noise. Daddy and Mommy won't let Xin He deal with this matter. Xin He wants to find out quietly, it would be so bad if Aunt Su is wrongly accused! Besides, Daddy's guards are not as good as Uncle Yu's!"
Yu Shen hesitated: "But, Daddy said that we can't use these two guards casually." Of course, they can't be used easily, they are secret guards who can fight ten people at once! Using them for a small matter would be a waste of talent. But to find out Su Peiyun, we must use such secret guards, because there are powerful people behind Su Peiyun.
Xin He continued to persuade and encourage Yu Shen: "Brother Shen, don't you want to find out whether Su Peiyun is a good person or a bad person? What if she is a bad person? How dangerous would it be to keep her in the mansion? Daddy and Mommy treat her as a relative and never guard against her. It's easy for bad people to succeed."
Yu Shen thought deeply for a long time, and finally said: "Okay, I can only lend it to you, and you can't let him fall into danger." Xin He immediately smiled: "It's not dangerous, not dangerous, don't worry, Brother Shen."
