Happy Spring Every Year

With Nanfeng around, there was no need to bother Shen Jiasui to help Jiang Xun.

Therefore, Old Lin walked in front holding a lantern, Nanfeng followed behind with Jiang Xun as support, and Shen Jiasui held a torch as the rear guard. The four of them continued to move quickly in the secret passage.

After all, Mr. Lin was old, and he couldn't help but breathe heavily at this moment. But he was like an old naughty boy, constantly looking back, his eyes rolling around.

Shen Jiasui: “….”

Mr. Lin’s eyes make his presence felt so strongly!

I always feel like it falls on her from time to time...

Fortunately, at this moment, after turning the corner ahead, the exit was finally in sight!

At this moment, Jiang Xun had his head down and was already unconscious.

"Quick! Give me your hand, young master!"

A muffled voice was heard outside, and it was obvious that someone was waiting here, ready to respond at any time.

Shen Jiasui was the last one to go up the well.

As soon as she stuck her head out, she saw that the place was brightly lit and people were busy moving around. Jiang Xun had already been helped into the inner room.

Shen Jiasui stepped out of the well and as soon as he stopped, he was suddenly stunned.

She saw that Old Lin was walking forward quickly, and the person who greeted him under the eaves of the corridor was actually Princess Jieyou!

In an instant, many thoughts flashed through Shen Jiasui's mind, and he suddenly figured out a lot of things.

Just at this moment, the eldest princess also looked at her, and a friendly smile appeared on her dignified face.

Old Lin turned his head, smiled and waved at Shen Jiasui, "Miss Shen, come in and sit down to warm yourself up."

The front hall of the warm room.

Shen Jiasui sat opposite the eldest princess and Mr. Lin in a somewhat reserved manner.

There was still a commotion inside, and an impatient voice could be heard faintly:

"Why are you so late than planned? Even if you take the antidote now, you'll be weak for several days."

"Also, aren't you afraid of breaking your tongue if you bite it so hard?"

"If it really doesn't work, it would be good to relieve yourself in the secret passage."

"Cough, cough, cough!"

A rapid cough interrupted the chatter.

"Xifeng, stop talking so much. Just focus on the treatment. Elder Lin said as long as the patient doesn't die, that's fine."

Shen Jiasui could recognize the voice behind him, it was Nanfeng.

"Hey hey hey! I didn't say that!"

Elder Lin suddenly raised his voice and hastily denied it in front of the eldest princess and Shen Jiasui.

The inner room was silent for a moment, and now there was really no sound at all.

The eldest princess seemed to be accustomed to Lin Lao's behavior. She pretended not to hear it and instead looked up at Shen Jiasui and said with a smile:

"Ning'er praised Miss Shen highly in front of me today. Even someone as strong-willed as Aya was impressed by her."

"At that time, I thought that if I had the chance, I would definitely meet Miss Shen."

The eldest princess was very gentle, not even a bit arrogant. Her eyebrows were slightly curved when she spoke, which was very different from her calm and majestic appearance at the banquet.

Shen Jiasui respected and admired the eldest princess and had long been yearning for her. Upon hearing this, he stood up in fear and said, "I dare not."

Unfortunately, the eldest princess could not stay for long.

She glanced at the clepsydra beside her, stood up and said, "Uncle Lin, it's time for me to go."

Uncle Lin?

When Shen Jiasui heard this name, he was slightly surprised.

Old Lin immediately stood up to see them off. Outside the pavilion were two female warriors from the State of Yue, whose attire was similar to Aya's, and who were serving as attendants to the eldest princess.

Shen Jiasui followed closely behind and saw that the eldest princess also went down the well and left through the secret passage, and his guess was once again confirmed.

As they kept it secret, it was obvious that few people knew about the relationship between the eldest princess and Mr. Lin.

In this case, I'm afraid that the plan of Mr. Lin and Lord Jiang was set up when the eldest princess sent a message to return to the capital.

Old Lin turned around and saw Shen Jiasui's face full of thought, and he couldn't help but smile.

"Miss Shen must have many questions in her mind, but I am not the one who can answer them for you."

Shen Jiasui came back to his senses and followed Mr. Lin's gaze towards the inner room.

At this time, Elder Lin invited Shen Jiasui into the hall again, and said as they walked in, "It's still some time before the midnight. If Miss Shen is not in a hurry, you can sit for a while. I don't think Xiuzhi will sleep for too long."

Shen Jiasui nodded. She couldn't wait to know the truth and wanted to see with her own eyes that Lord Jiang was safe and sound.

"Do you need me to send someone to deliver a message to General Shen and Madam Shen?"

Shen Jiasui shook his head. "When I came out, I already told my younger brother that he would explain everything to my parents."

Seeing how thorough Shen Jiasui was, Mr. Lin immediately nodded approvingly.

Recalling what he had just seen in the secret passage, the two of them supported each other as they walked forward. Old Lin felt both happy and excited, and had already regarded Shen Jiasui as his future disciple's wife.

In this case, he didn't want to make Shen Jiasui feel embarrassed or awkward at this moment, so he avoided talking about the secret passage and instead talked about Jiang Xun.

"I really want to clear Miss Shen's confusion, but Xiuzhi... is truly a stubborn ass. If he wakes up and knows that I took the initiative and implicated Miss Shen, he will definitely be furious."

"He's a stubborn kid, but he has a very good heart. He just worries too much. But Miss Shen can rest assured. If he really makes up his mind, he won't hesitate or retreat for a moment."

Mr. Lin didn't say it explicitly, but Shen Jiasui definitely understood it.

She lowered her eyelashes, her face feeling slightly hot.

Just now in the secret passage, she was impulsive and had some concerns... In fact, even she herself was not sure.

When Mr. Lin saw that Shen Jiasui didn't respond, he stopped talking.

It's normal for young people to be shy, and that's part of the fun.

Now that he is old, he likes to see young people in pairs and having a happy life.

"I will go and rest first. Xifeng and Nanfeng are Xiuzhi's followers. They are very sensible. Miss Shen, just sit down and relax."

Upon hearing this, Shen Jiasui hurriedly stood up and watched Mr. Lin leave the hall.

The surroundings suddenly became silent.

Shen Jiasui sat back in his original seat, his mind in a state of confusion as he thought about both important matters and personal matters.

In the inner room.

Jiang Xun had already taken the antidote and was now lying on the couch, seemingly asleep.

But for some reason, his brows were furrowed and his eyelashes trembled occasionally, as if he was not sleeping well.

Rumbling--

In a trance, the dream came back again, but for the first time in several months, the scene was different.

It was no longer a noisy day, but turned into a rainy night.

Thunder roared and heavy rain poured down unrestrainedly. Bean-sized raindrops hit the ground, splashing countless water.

He came out of the Dali Temple holding an umbrella, and Nanfeng followed him, holding a lantern for him.

"Sir, get in the car quickly."

He nodded slightly when he heard that and was walking towards the carriage, but for some reason, he habitually glanced at the opposite corner.

With just a glance, he saw a figure standing in the corner with an umbrella.

At this moment, even he didn't understand why his heartbeat suddenly became rapid and even his chest ached slightly.

Under Nanfeng's surprised eyes, he took the lantern and walked towards the person in the corner.

The closer I get, the more inexplicably nervous I feel.

The heavy rain poured down, crackling and hitting the man's oil-paper umbrella, creating wisps of mist.

In the dim light, he saw that it was a woman in plain clothes, the hem of her clothes was already soaked, and she looked extremely thin and fragile in the night.

"Master Jiang, what's going on?"

The voice was hoarse and mixed with the sound of falling rain, making it unclear.

His heart suddenly trembled. He felt that he knew this woman, but he could not remember who she was.

He wanted to take a step forward, but was trapped in the spot. His heart was obviously beating fast, but the voice that came out of his mouth was very flat.

"unambiguous evidence."

The person opposite suddenly shuddered and raised the brim of his umbrella abruptly.

A pointed chin, pale lips, wet hair sticking to cheeks, and those tired eyes.

Seeing this, a sharp pain suddenly erupted in his chest. His thin lips trembled slightly, and at this moment, he had only one thought in his mind:

Her eyes should be bright and clear, not like now, filled with despair and death.

"Master Jiang?"

"Master Jiang."

"Master Jiang!"

The voices echoed in my ears. Although they were different, they all came from the same person.

Jiang Xun's heartstrings trembled suddenly, as if being plucked by an invisible hand, and clarity gradually emerged in his eyes.

The name of the person opposite is about to come out.

He opened his mouth and called her with all his might:

"Miss Shen——"

The inner room was silent.

Suddenly, a sharp call was heard, startling the West Wind and the South Wind.

The two of them turned their heads suddenly and saw that Jiang Xun on the couch had opened his eyes.

Almost at the same time, footsteps were heard at the entrance of the inner room.

It was Shen Jiasui who heard the call and hurried over.
