The prince can read minds! I just want to be a princess and have a bad time
Chapter 228 Man Confession
This junior uncle used to be very low-key. It was said that he was a child of a poor family, but he was knowledgeable and talented. He was also the favorite student of Master Su. Unfortunately, he returned to his hometown after being accidentally injured and did not continue to take the exam.
He appeared again because he accidentally saved those people from the Su family and took the initiative to help them complete their messy so-called revenge plan. The current network of relationships was also formed under his construction. He left a year later and never appeared again.
Shen Yu only found out about this after they had completely surrendered. According to Aunt Lan, this person was of the same generation as her mother and they had studied together, so it was appropriate for him to respectfully call him Junior Master Uncle.
Shen Yu didn't think he was from a poor family, but since he didn't want to reveal his identity, she wouldn't offend him.
After saying goodbye to Aunt Xu, the princess went straight to the 'Celebration Class'. Seeing her wandering around the imperial capital late at night with such proficiency, Wu Chen suddenly had a sense of familiarity, as if he had worked with the princess before, but he couldn't remember who it was.
"Go ahead and talk, I don't have much time!" Shen Yu looked at the neatly dressed man in front of him. His aura was obviously worse than the last time they met.
"Aren't you curious...why did I know you were coming today?"
Shen Yu rolled her eyes. The man was exactly the one she had saved in the alley earlier. The boss had sent someone to report a few days ago that the man wanted to see her. Ha! You can meet him just like that?
She was actually a little disappointed in him. After all, they saved his life and took him in to recuperate in the troupe, on the premise that he had been lurking in the "Parenting and Child Workshop" to poison people! She hadn't even bothered with him, but after the showdown that day, he still chose to conceal it. Since he didn't confess that day, there was no need to meet again now.
Who would have thought that a grown man like him would actually go on a hunger strike just to see her? Is he sick?
"Get to the point, I don't have much time!" She had to rush out of the city as soon as the city gate opened, so how could she have time to watch you on a hunger strike!
The man said, "Okay! Let me make it short! My wife and I went back to Zhuling Temple for a follow-up consultation. We were received by a monk named Jingkong. He examined my wife, prescribed medicine, and agreed to come back for a follow-up consultation during the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Shen Yu looked at him steadily, "First of all, there is no monk named 'Jingkong' in Zhuling Temple. Secondly, I have said that there will be no follow-up visits during the Mid-Autumn Festival. If you don't believe me, just go to the town and ask!"
The man didn't mind her attitude and took out a prescription from his pocket, "I don't have to lie to you!"
Shen Yu took it and looked through it carefully. "It is indeed the paper commonly used in Zhuling Temple, but it can't prove anything!"
The man nodded and continued, "After my wife took the prescription, her condition became worse and worse, so I brought her to see a doctor early in the morning on the Mid-Autumn Festival, but the monk Jingkong told me that a noble lady was going to close the temple to pray today and would not accept any patients, so I had to come back the next day... I cried and begged but it was useless. That night, my wife started bleeding heavily..."
Shen Yu listened silently without giving him any response, because she knew that she had not yet reached the point.
"The next morning, I took my wife to seek medical treatment, but the monk 'Jingkong' told me that the temple had not been unsealed yet, but my wife was already unconscious... Coincidentally, a young lady from an official family who came to pray was also stopped outside the temple. She saw our miserable situation and asked for help, but the other party said that we couldn't afford to offend the nobles in the temple. Then, the young lady was kind enough to take the initiative to send us to the town's medical clinic in a carriage, but unfortunately, my wife was already beyond help..."
"After that, I worked in the town and raised Yang'er alone. I wanted to find out who the noble lady was who closed the temple for blessings that day, but they told me that the temple was not closed that day?"
The man looked out the window, and for the first time tonight he felt emotional. "Haha! They didn't say anything about closing the temple? So my wife died in vain? Tell me, what exactly is going on? If you were me, what would you think?"
Shen Yu felt a heavy sense of powerlessness and loneliness from him. His calm eyes were like a pool of stagnant water. She couldn't bear to look at him anymore, so she turned her head to look out the window and answered seriously, "You would think... this lady must be very special, otherwise why would everyone help her lie? Then you made a scene, you asked for an explanation, and the noise was too loud, so others might think you were sick... Then, you would take the initiative to find the eyewitnesses that day."
In fact, after hearing this, Shen Yu already knew who he was. Half a year ago, there was a crazy beggar who caused trouble and was almost arrested and sent to jail. This incident was a sensation. He didn't expect that it would be the person in front of him?
From the moment the monk Jingkong appeared, it was a trap, a trap targeting herself and the man in front of her. His wife and children were just innocent victims. Suddenly, she couldn't say anything, "You..."
The man smiled calmly, looking into her eyes without flinching, as if he was telling someone else's story, "Then, I went to the clinic that day and successfully found an eyewitness, the eldest daughter of the Cheng En Marquis's Mansion, Xue Zhenzhen. She told me that your name is Shen Yu, and that you are an arrogant and domineering young lady who doesn't take human life seriously. She said that because your grandfather is Su Taifu, your father is Shen Shangshu, and your husband is Zhuo Wang, you look down on everyone and no one in Luo City dares to offend you. She asked me if I dared to avenge my wife and children!"
Shen Yu had never thought that the truth was actually like this. What was Xue Zhenzhen's intention in setting him up to deal with her? Although the whole thing was inexplicable, if she was reborn... then everything would make sense.
For her to deliberately design a plan to prove the identity of the man in front of her, Xue Zhenzhen must have been an extraordinary person in her previous life...
Looking at the man's pale face, Shen Yu couldn't bear it, and his voice softened. "How do you want me to help you?"
The man stared at her for a long time, and a very faint smile slowly blossomed on his face. Shen Yu then realized that he was actually very handsome, and his elegance was still visible even under his sickly look. After dressing up, he should be a handsome uncle in his thirties.
"Princess! It's getting late!" Wu Chen walked forward and bowed to remind her, his hands just blocking the man's sight.
As if seeing what he was thinking, the man suddenly sneered, changing his previous obsession and adopting a lazy attitude, "You accompany me to Lingzhu Temple, and then I will take Xue Zhenzhen away. I will work for you all my life! For you, not Prince Zhuo's Mansion! I can be your thug, help you with business, and help you kill people. You can use me as you like!"
"It's a good idea and you're very brave. Please forgive me for not being able to enjoy it!" Shen Yu spoke the truth and gave him a thumbs up for his courage.
She doesn't care whether Xue Zhenzhen lives or dies, but she obviously has no intention of wandering around the world. She doesn't want to be the Princess Zhuo anymore, but she wants to fight with you? She even broke into Xue's mansion and kidnapped the Queen Mother's niece? Is she sick?
"Xue Zhenzhen, I can do it myself, but I need to bring the person with me, and you have to cover for me!" The man changed his words.
"Oh! What makes you think I'll agree?"
"Because I know the secrets of Master Su's family!" The man raised his eyebrows, looking like he had her in his grasp, and threw out a round card, "Pah!"
Shen Yu's expression was normal, his eyes swept across the table calmly, and then took on a hint of coldness and gloom, making the fog in the middle of the night even more unpredictable.
