Happy Spring Every Year

Zhao Huailang noticed Cui Mingjue's loss of composure, so he leaned over slightly to look outside and saw a young girl jumping out of the car.

Her black hair was tied up high with a red ribbon. The moment her hair touched the ground, it swung up, making her figure look even more graceful.

Moreover, her eyes were bright and her movements were extremely quick and decisive, which really made her different from the average lady from a noble family.

"That's Miss Shen?"

Zhao Huailang spoke softly, with a hint of teasing in his voice.

Cui Mingjue came to his senses and immediately lowered the curtain, his face full of embarrassment.

Zhao Huailang didn't care, he just waved at him, "Okay, go and pay your respects."

"The Princess has returned to the capital, and as her nephew, I still need to prepare a welcoming gift. It's really worrying."

Upon hearing this, Cui Mingjue didn't dare to disturb Zhao Huailang anymore. After bowing politely, he lifted the curtain and walked out.

The moment he got off the carriage, Cui Mingjue let out a breath calmly.

At this moment, all the embarrassment, respectfulness, and caution disappeared from his face.

There are some things that his grandfather and parents did not teach him, but this did not prevent him from figuring them out on his own through his long time with his cousin.

My cousin is domineering and tough inside, and likes to control the overall situation. Appropriately showing weakness, losing composure, or even inadvertently revealing those little thoughts can gain the trust of my cousin and help me walk safely and steadily for a long time.

After all, which superior can tolerate an impeccable subordinate?

After standing there for a while, Cui Mingjue, looking hesitant, took a step and walked towards Shen Jiasui and his sister.

It wasn't until Cui Mingjue had walked quite far away that the attendant sitting on the throne spoke softly:

"Your Highness, Master Cui is walking towards Miss Shen."

There was a moment of silence in the car, followed by a deep laugh, "That's really interesting."

In Prince Rong's Mansion, the eldest sister-in-law's safety depends on the help of Miss Shen.

I heard that Miss Shen was also at the Jokhang Temple that day.

And Anyang Marquis Mansion......

If Miss Shen had not taken action in time, the wife of the Earl of Anyang would have been a floating corpse in the water.

Look, this Miss Shen always appears at the right time.

Now, Mingjue happened to be interested in her.

Such a brave and resourceful woman, with the support of General Dingguo's Mansion, would be a great choice if she could be brought into our side.

Moreover, he was also very curious about this Miss Shen. She was obviously... not that simple.

As for Jiang Xun...

Haha, those words just now were just to provoke Mingjue. A person like Jiang Xun, who is already at the center of the storm, probably wouldn't even dare to be moved.

After all, so many people were waiting to exploit his weakness and bring disaster to this once glorious Shaoqing of the Dali Temple.

Zhao Huailang's thoughts had just reached this point when he suddenly heard the attendant outside the carriage whisper, "Your Highness, Jiang Xun has come out of the Imperial College."

Zhao Huailang raised his eyes suddenly when he heard this, and then said calmly: "Go back home."

.......

the other side.

Shen Jiasui saw Shen Jiaheng from afar and jumped off the carriage.

Shen Jiaheng's face was full of joy. "Sister, why are you here?"

As he was walking quickly towards her, a bundle was thrown into his arms.

When Shen Jiaheng saw that Shen Jiasui had brought him something, he was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Sister, what good things did you bring me?"

As he was speaking, he had already reached out to open the bundle, and what he saw was a colorful array of... knee-length coats?

Shen Jiaheng didn't believe it and reached in to rummage again.

"......"

"Sister, even if it's ten cows, it wouldn't take that much, right?"

Shen Jiasui didn't feel anything was wrong at all. He raised his hand, patted Shen Jiaheng's shoulder, and said with a smile:

"Not much, not much. Remember to give half to Cousin Ji."

When Shen Jiaheng heard this, his previous disgust disappeared instantly, and he quickly hugged the bag tightly in his arms.

That won't work!

What my sister gave him, he wants to keep it all to himself!

Shen Jiasui raised the corner of his mouth when he saw this. He was about to talk to Shen Jiaheng about the follow-up of the Lu Mansion incident, but he caught a glimpse of Cui Mingjue getting off the carriage and immediately stopped talking.

What she didn't expect was that after standing there for a while, Cui Mingjue actually walked straight towards them.

Shen Jiaheng noticed his sister's reaction, turned his head and took a look. The moment he saw Cui Mingjue, the smile on his face disappeared instantly.

He took a step forward and stood in front of Shen Jiasui calmly.

Cui Mingjue walked closer and saw Shen Jiaheng's hostile expression towards him. He finally realized what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot.

He took a step back, bowed, and said politely, "Miss Shen, it's been a long time since we last met. Please allow me to apologize again for my impoliteness last time."

Shen Jiaheng didn't expect Cui Mingjue to come to apologize. He raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Instead, Shen Jiasui patted Shen Jiaheng on the shoulder, walked out from behind him, and politely returned a salute to Cui Mingjue.

"Mr. Cui, you are too kind. Last time at Prince Rong's mansion, I still want to thank you for showing up and saving me."

Although she was confused at the time, she still remembered that it was Cui Mingjue who raised his hand to support her.

This reminded Shen Jiaheng of the day when he asked Cui Mingjue about his sister's news. Cui Mingjue told him everything he knew and did not make things difficult for him.

He was a man who knew right from wrong, so he immediately softened his expression and bowed to Cui Mingjue.

When Jiang Xun came out of the Imperial College, he saw the three of them being polite to each other.

Shen Jiasui and Shen Jiaheng were bowing their heads slightly as they saluted, and Cui Mingjue's gaze fell directly on Shen Jiasui.

But when Shen Jiasui stood up, Cui Mingjue hurriedly looked away, with a hint of embarrassment and caution on his face.

Jiang Xun suddenly stopped.

Because he often interrogated prisoners, over time, he gradually became able to see the subtle changes in expressions on other people's faces and to infer some deeper meaning from them.

If he saw it correctly, the young master of the Cui family was... attracted to Miss Shen.

As soon as this thought came to mind, an unfamiliar sour feeling emerged from my heart like a faint mist.

Jiang Xun had never felt this way before, and the fingers hanging by his side curled slightly unconsciously.

Who knew that at this time——

"Master Jiang."

Jiang Xun looked up when he heard the voice, and saw that Shen Jiasui had noticed him at some point. His eyes were full of smiles, and he was nodding at him from a distance.

Shen Jiasui could hardly hide the curiosity in his eyes.

Lord Jiang took off his official uniform today and carried a bookcase on his back. He had shed all the official airs and looked more like... a handsome scholar.

"Master Jiang, someone who said you are from 'Tian Shang Yue' has arrived."

This sentence naturally flashed through Jiang Xun's mind, and a continuous and dense warm current instantly washed away the sourness just now.

His heart skipped a beat, and his steps, which were originally supposed to be heading towards the carriage, unconsciously shifted towards Shen Jiansui.

"Miss Shen."

But he restrained himself and finally did not take a step forward. He just bowed to her from a distance.

Shen Jiaheng originally thought that Jiang Xun was chasing him, and his eyes lit up instantly, but when he saw Jiang Xun's distant attitude, the light flickered and then went out.

Well, now he understood his mother's feelings. Some things really cannot be forced.

On the other hand, Cui Mingjue, who was standing aside, looked up at Jiang Xun with deep meaning in his eyes.

If Jiang Xun wants to be a loyal minister, he should understand that anyone who has anything to do with him may be attacked and framed, let alone...his sweetheart.

If he were rational enough, he should have stayed alone to the end, and as he once said, never marry.

Cui Mingjue was lost in thought, but what he didn't expect was that Shen Jiasui suddenly took a step forward and walked towards Jiang Xun.

Jiang Xun stood where he was, knowing that Shen Jiasui was walking towards him, but he couldn't move away.

Even he could not deny that a secret joy was flowing in his heart.

"Master Jiang, I heard from my father that General Lu was impeached by the Censor a while ago."

Shen Jiasui stood three steps away from Jiang Xun, slightly parted her red lips, and deliberately lowered her voice.

"I know that Lord Jiang keeps his word. This incident really helped me a lot."

Shen Jiasui tilted his head and smiled, feeling very grateful.

If General Lu had not been suddenly impeached, Mrs. Lu would not have been forced into such a state, and Lu Yunzheng would not have lost his last support so quickly.

That day at the gate of Anyang Marquis' Mansion, she originally thought that Jiang Xun was just talking, but she didn't expect him to act so quickly and get things done the next day.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Lord Jiang really helped her time and time again.

Jiang Xun leaned slightly to the side and listened to Shen Jiasui's words with a calm expression. Anyone who saw him would feel that his heart was as calm as still water.

But at this moment, Jiang Xun was thinking:

Miss Shen's eyes curved when she smiled, like the crescent moon in the sky.
