"Young Marshal?"

In a small courtyard hidden deep in Huaicheng, Shen Zechuan was surprised when he saw Xiao Yun, and even wondered if he had seen it wrong.

He reached out and rubbed his eyes hard to make sure he was not seeing things.

Why is Xiao Yun here?

Xiao Yun walked straight in and gave him a cold look.

Shen Zechuan took a deep breath and walked inside. He asked someone to close the courtyard door and then stood guard outside the house.

At this time, only Xiao Yun and Shen Zechuan were in the room. Shen Zechuan kept his head down and didn't say anything, thinking in his mind what he should say when Xiao Yun asked him about it.

Obviously, Xiao Yun had been keeping an eye on the Shen Mansion, otherwise he would not have known that he had suddenly left Nancheng at this time.

But he brought a hundred elite members of the Shen family to Huaicheng, which obviously alarmed Xiao Yun.

"Tell me, why did you bring these people to Huaicheng?" Xiao Yun asked in a deep voice when he saw that he didn't say anything.

Shen Zechuan swallowed hard and then smiled, "Young Marshal, I came to Huaicheng because I accidentally learned that there is a treasure house in Huaicheng. It contains many treasures left over from the Qing Dynasty. That's why I brought people here to confirm whether Huaicheng really has it!"

"Now, various forces are entrenched. Although our Jiangbei military is strong, it is not at its strongest. If we can find this treasure house, it will surely change the current situation."

Shen Zechuan knew that Xiao Yun was not someone who could be easily fooled. If he didn't tell the truth, Xiao Yun would not believe it.

But he also knew that he must not mention Shen Chaoyan, and he must not let Xiao Yun know that these things were found out by Shen Chaoyan.

He took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the depression in his heart.

It seems that he has to find an opportunity to have someone secretly send a message to Shen Chaoyan, otherwise once Chaoyan comes to Huaicheng, she will definitely meet Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun hurt her deeply, and Shen Zechuan didn't want his younger sister to be hurt again because of this.

"Really? Why didn't you report such an important matter? Do you, the Shen family, want to embezzle this treasure?" Xiao Yun raised his eyebrows and looked at Shen Zechuan coldly.

The intimidating look in his eyes made Shen Zechuan feel a little breathless, and he even didn't dare to look Xiao Yun in the eye.

They are almost the same age as Xiao Yun. Although they did not grow up together, they have many opportunities to meet each other.

However, Xiao Yun felt more oppressed among this group of people.

It's like a natural born king.

"Young Marshal, we're still not sure whether the treasure really exists. The reason we didn't report it is because we're worried that the information might be wrong," Shen Zechuan explained.

"Really?" Xiao Yun just looked at him.

Shen Zechuan felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on his head, pressing his head as if it was about to sink into the mud.

He didn't dare to look at Xiao Yun, nor did he dare to say much.

"Yes!" Shen Zechuan took a long time to say this, his voice trembling slightly.

Xiao Yun really wanted to release the pressure around him, but not everyone could withstand it.

This is also why, although Xiao Zhenyue has so many sons, his favorite is still Xiao Yun.

"Don't be nervous, I just want to figure out what's going on." Xiao Yun curled his lips into a smile, putting away the pressure he had released.

Shen Zechuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Xiao Yun sitting there motionless, Shen Zechuan felt somewhat puzzled. After a long while, he asked, "Young... Young Marshal, you are going out on business. Are you preparing..."

"No! Let's confirm the matter of Huaicheng treasure first." Xiao Yun interrupted him.

Shen Zechuan's face darkened. He didn't expect that he actually came here for the treasure of Huaicheng.

Xiao Yun had no idea about Shen Chaoyan's whereabouts, so he came to Huaicheng specifically to take the opportunity to see if Shen Chaoyan was in Huaicheng?

When Shen Chaoyan and Shen Jinghuan wrote to them earlier, Shen Zechuan knew that Shen Chaoyan would find a way to come to Huaicheng to meet him.

If that were the case, Xiao Yun would definitely meet Shen Chaoyan.

Xiao Yun looked at Shen Zechuan calmly and suddenly asked, "What are you thinking about? Don't you want this young commander to stay here?"

Shen Zechuan snapped back to his senses. "Young Marshal, you misunderstood. I was just wondering where to start my investigation. According to my third brother, the treasure was stolen from the royal treasury by Marshal Ye Jinnian's ancestors. It's said that these things were missing for many years and only returned to Ye Jinnian a while ago. I've also received reliable information that Ye Jinnian is on his way back to Huaicheng."

"What news did Third Young Master Shen send back?" Xiao Yun asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes!"

Shen Zechuan had no idea what Xiao Yun was thinking, and his expression was a little strange at the moment.

"Your younger sister is missing, but you don't seem worried at all." Xiao Yun suddenly said this.

Shen Zechuan was slightly stunned and said, "Although my little sister is willful, she's not the kind of person who acts recklessly. She's not feeling well, so I think she's found a quiet place to recuperate. My parents also sent a few people to protect her safety. Once my little sister has recovered and calmed down, she'll probably come back!"

Xiao Yun chuckled, "You guys are relieved!"

Shen Zechuan didn't say anything more, feeling that it would be useless for him to say anything at this moment, and that saying more would only expose Shen Chaoyan's whereabouts.

Xiao Yun is the young marshal, so they can't do anything to Xiao Yun?

However, they did not want Shen Chaoyan to be harmed in any way. Everyone has selfish motives, not to mention...

Shen Chaoyan is still their family's darling, cherished and loved by them since childhood.

"They say that family members are connected by blood. If something really happened to my little sister, we would be able to sense it."

Xiao Yun didn't say anything more, stood up and walked out.

However, Xiao Yun simply asked Rao Liangjun to clean up a room in the courtyard and move in directly.

Shen Zechuan took a deep breath, feeling even more uneasy. If this were the case, he really didn't know what to do.

If Shen Chaoyan arrived in Huaicheng, she would come here secretly.

Xiao Yun and she will definitely meet.

"Second Master, what should we do next?"

The deputy beside Shen Zechuan glanced in Xiao Yun's direction, lowered his voice and came to his side and asked in a low voice.

Shen Zechuan took a deep breath and said, "What's the point of stopping them? If we really meet, we'll see each other sooner or later. Some things still need to be handled by me. Avoiding them won't solve the problem. Instead of hiding, it's better to let them talk it out."

Kong Hang knew that Shen Zechuan was right, but he was still a little worried. He lowered his voice and said, "That's right. However... judging by the young marshal's expression, I'm afraid he won't give up on the fourth young lady so easily."

Shen Zechuan could see it, but he was still worried. He was too afraid that his little sister would get hurt.

Before this, Xiao Yun was engaged to Wang Manli, which is why Shen Chaoyan left sadly.

Although they have canceled their engagement now, who can guarantee that Li Manli, Yang Manli, Chen Manli will not appear in the future... Xiao Yun has never made it clear what kind of feelings he has for Shen Chaoyan.

Just thinking of my little sister...

Shen Zechuan took a deep breath and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on her outside. If they see the Fourth Miss, tell her about Xiao Yun's presence in Huaicheng. Let her... at least be mentally prepared!"

[It's a changing season, kids, please stay warm! Someone is... caught!]
