In the years of famine, I led a comfortable life with my husband
Chapter 232 Becoming a Servant
Shen Wenjun paused and looked at Xu Miao seriously. "Your Highness, I can tell you very clearly that I like Zhizhi, and only her, regardless of whether she is married or not. As for her death... I won't believe it until I see Zhizhi's body."
"But Zhizhi's body has been buried long ago." Xu Miao still had some hope.
Shen Wenjun shook his head, "Your Highness, please don't worry about that."
After saying this, Shen Wenjun wanted to turn around and leave, but then seemed to think of something else. Shen Wenjun turned around and continued, "Also, regarding the engagement between Wei Chen and Your Highness, I will ask Your Majesty to cancel the engagement in a while. The engagement was originally made only to solve Your Highness's urgent need for marriage. Now that Your Highness has no concerns, it is best to resolve this marriage as soon as possible."
Xu Miao was stunned on the spot. She didn't expect that Shen Wenjun would tell her the whole story like this. After a long time, Xu Miao came back to her senses and simply said "hmm" without saying anything else.
Shen Wenjun was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Xu Miao to agree so readily, but he had already made his attitude clear, so he didn't want to dwell on it anymore and turned and left.
Only Xu Miao was left standing there alone. No one knew what he was thinking. His eyes gradually turned red. Until Shen Wenjun disappeared in the alley, Xu Miao leaned against the wall weakly and slid down. He looked lonely and fragile. He hugged his knees, buried his head in his arms and cried silently.
Before, Xu Miao could still deceive himself, but now, Shen Wenjun has made everything clear, and Xu Miao can no longer pester Shen Wenjun.
But no matter what, that was the man Xu Miao had liked for a long time, how could she not be sad?
But the thing had already been agreed upon, and Xu Miao could not go back on his word now. When A Lian came with the guards, Xu Miao returned to his princess's mansion dejectedly.
For a period of time afterwards, Xu Miao stayed in the mansion sighing every day. His listless appearance made A Lian very distressed.
A Lian even tried to persuade Xu Miao to go out for a walk many times, but Xu Miao still refused to leave the house and looked half dead. However, Xu Miao waited and waited, but Shen Wenjun did not say anything about the marriage proposal.
On the contrary, Su Zhizhi felt a little uncomfortable. Normally, Xu Miao would run to Xie Mansion every few days, but in the past few days, Su Zhizhi hadn't even seen a hair of Xu Miao. She couldn't help but feel a little strange. Without Xu Miao, Su Zhizhi even felt a little bored staying in the mansion.
Counting the days, the effect of Su Zhizhi's disguise pill is about to expire. If she doesn't want to be exposed, she must avoid those servants at the banquet.
Fortunately, Su Zhizhi still had some skills and easily avoided the servants. She hid alone in a small corner and took a disguise pill.
The Disguise Pill can change one's appearance according to the wishes of the user. In the previous few times, Su Zhizhi had always maintained the appearance of Xie Yun, but after such a long time, Su Zhizhi felt a little tired, so she simply thought of turning into a man and playing with Xie Chengjin for a few days.
Thinking of this, Su Zhizhi transformed herself into a man after taking the disguise pill. Although she was a man, she only looked like a man. The disguise pill could only change a person's appearance, not their physiological structure. However, after Su Zhizhi disguised herself, she looked like a man.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Su Zhizhi showed a satisfied expression.
The next thing is to wait for Xie Chengjin to come and find Su Zhizhi.
When Xie Chengjin pushed the door open, he saw only a man who looked like a guard in the room.
Xie Chengjin instantly became alert, closed the door with his backhand, and stared at Su Zhizhi intently. The aura around him suddenly increased, and he pressed towards Su Zhizhi step by step.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" Xie Chengjin asked in a deep voice.
This was the first time Su Zhizhi saw Xie Chengjin like this, and she was startled, but she quickly came to her senses and a smile appeared on her face.
That smile seemed strangely familiar to Xie Chengjin.
Xie Chengjin suddenly thought of something and relaxed instantly. He then tentatively said to Su Zhizhi, "Zhizhi? Is that you?"
Su Zhizhi's eyes suddenly lit up, "How did you recognize me?"
Xie Chengjin breathed a sigh of relief instantly, "You scared me to death. I really thought that an unknown guard had come into the mansion and appeared in your room inexplicably." Xie Chengjin's frightened look made Su Zhizhi laugh.
"Why did you want to turn out like this this time?" Xie Chengjin sat down and stared at Su Zhizhi's face and clothes with curiosity.
Su Zhizhi couldn't wait to turn around in front of Xie Chengjin. "How is it? My makeup is pretty good, right? No one should recognize me... Mainly because I'm really bored right now. Without Xu Miao, there's no one to talk to me. Might as well pretend to be your servant and go out for a walk to find something to do."
Xie Chengjin didn't expect this to be the excuse and laughed in silence, but then he thought, Su Zhizhi really doesn't go out much, so now is a good opportunity.
Xie Chengjin arranged for someone to make up a reasonable reason for Xie Yun's disappearance, and then fabricated Su Zhizhi, who had been transformed into a guard, into a servant named Yun Qing. Although the name sounds delicate, it matches Su Zhizhi's current appearance.
For a period of time afterwards, Su Zhizhi was taken by Xie Chengjin every day to deal with dignitaries. This was also the first time Su Zhizhi came into contact with Xie Chengjin's daily life. She just followed Xie Chengjin silently, watching him chatting and laughing with others, but the smile never reached his eyes, it was just on the surface.
Following Xie Chengjin, Su Zhizhi got to know quite a few officials. Xie Chengjin even took Su Zhizhi to meet the fifth prince.
It was also a coincidence that when Xie Chengjin was resting in the mansion, he received an invitation from the Fifth Prince. It said that the Fifth Prince was going to hold a banquet and specially invited Xie Chengjin to attend.
Seeing this, Su Zhizhi also wanted to follow. Xie Chengjin thought that Su Zhizhi's appearance was completely different from before, so he did not refuse.
What Xie Chengjin hadn't expected was that the moment the Fifth Prince saw Su Zhizhi, his eyes were filled with meaning. He leaned close to Xie Chengjin's ear and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "The servant girl following you is a girl, right?"
