After a moment, Emperor Wen Hui laughed out loud, "For so many years, Official Shen has been guarding the Northwestern region and now that the enemy has been defeated, Zhen is deeply gratified. It is Ming Qi's blessing to have such a General. Official Shen's request, Zhen will approve. "
Shen Xin immediately thanked, "Thanking Your Majesty!"
This action made the other people in the hall to look at him. After Emperor Wen Hui approved, he walked out of the main hall, leaving a group of people behind. Shen Xin's action just now was unexpected and the first to speak was actually the Marquis of Lin An, Xie Ding. This person who had been dealing with the Shen family for a lifetime obviously did not understand Shen Xin's actions and ridiculed, "Could it be that General Shen is afraid of the war and stay in the Ding capital for half a year to enjoy?"
When Shen Xin heard it, he was not angry and even smiled revealing his white teeth, "Is Marquis Xie envious of this General? Ai, it is no wonder, after all Marquis Xie does not have a wife and daughter … "
"You!" Xie Ding's face was livid. Shen Xin this fellow looked like a big and rough person without any schemes but in fact his mouth was the most poisonous. Princess Yu Qing's death and Xie Jing Xing treating him like a stranger was Xie Ding's Achilles heel and Shen Xin mercilessly stabbed him with a knife. Xie Ding really wished that he could use a spear to stab Shen Xin to death.
Fu Xiu Yi looked at Shen Xin and his expression was rather interesting. The Shen family had exceeded his expectations time and time again. In the past Shen Miao admired him and even though he was annoyed, he thought that he could make use of the Shen family. Afterwards Shen Miao actually clarified that she had no such intentions towards him and caused Fu Xiu Yi to be ridiculed by Prince Zhou and Prince Jing. Now that Shen Xin proposed to stay in the capital for half a year, it made people even more puzzled. Fu Xiu Yi had an inexplicable feeling that the Shen family that seemed to be the easiest to grasp suddenly became an unstable rock. It seemed that in the future, there would be numerous variables that would affect the overall situation …
Shen Xin's unconventional moves made the officials somewhat inexplicable, but the rewards that he obtained today made everyone jealous. The rest of the people went up one after another and sincerely or falsely congratulated him. Shen Xin talked to them about the interesting matters in the Northwest region but did not notice that there was a gloomy gaze behind him.
That gaze stared fixedly at Shen Xin, as if it was a man-eating poisonous snake entrenched in the grass, waiting for the opportunity to rush up and bite him to death. And that person who was looking at Shen Xin, the corner of his robe was empty and was playing with the thumb ring in his hand. It was not someone else but Prince Yu.
The atmosphere here was rather lively and Shen Qiu had also blocked Wei Qian in the corridor outside.
Wei Qian was also considered talented and humble, but compared to the healthy and energetic Shen Qiu, he seemed too weak and frail. He looked at Shen Qiu and asked with a frown, "Little Deputy General Shen, why are you stopping me?"
Shen Qiu sized up Wei Qian from head to toe. He himself had a cheerful and friendly temperament and if he met Wei Qian in the past, perhaps he would make friends but after hearing Shen Miao say that Wei Qian already had a sweetheart in his heart, looking at this person again made him angry. From Shen Qiu's point of view, his younger sister was very good, but she did not like others. How could she tolerate being despised?
"You are Wei Qian?" Thinking of this, Shen Qiu's tone was not very happy.
Wei Qian was startled for a moment and sensed that the person who came was not kind, "Exactly."
"I am here for nothing." Shen Qiu patted Wei Qian's shoulder and said, "Just to inform you that previously there was a rumour that my younger sister was engaged to your Wei family. Since it is a rumour, my Shen family did not take it to heart, so your Wei family need not take it to heart." Shen Qiu took a step back and acted as if nothing had happened but said in an eerie tone, "My Younger Sister is picking a husband so naturally she must first ask my eyes!" Finishing, he did not even look at Wei Qian's face as he turned and strode away.
Wei Qian was stunned at the same spot. Shen Qiu's words clearly wanted to draw a line with his Wei family, but … It was true that he had a sweetheart. Even if Shen Qiu felt injustice for his younger sister, there was no need to say that he was a good-for-nothing fool. The Shen family's protection was too fierce. Moreover, there was no chance for him to intervene in this marriage!
Outside the corridor, Gao Yang was overjoyed as he looked at Wei Qian who was standing there in a daze. He shook his head and said, "This Shen family is just too overbearing. To be so arrogant and not even put the Wei family in their eyes."
"Have seen enough?" The purple clad youth beside him had a hint of impatience in his eyes and his tone was not pleasant, "Is there an end to it?"
"Wei Qian is your person." Gao Yang said, "He is being bullied like this and you are not going to stand up for him?"
"If you like, you go." Xie Jing Xing glanced at him.
"I do not dare." Gao Yang said as if he was watching a good show, "That Shen family girl has so many people protecting her. If one is not careful, trouble will come knocking. But. "His smile was gentle but his tone was somewhat gloating," Today Prince Yu is present so one fear that the matter would not be good. I heard that Prince Yu plans to marry a Wangfei. Guess which Shen family's young lady he wants to marry? "
"I guess that he cannot marry." Xie Jing Xing raised his eyebrows and his eyes fell to the front.
In the garden, a familiar figure trotted forward and said something to the little eunuch at the other side before stuffing a sachet into the little eunuch's hands.
That figure was Shen Miao's personal maid, Jing Zhe.
