"How so?" Ji Yu Shu asked.
Gao Yang touched his chin, "Since one wants to deal with Prince Ding, it is not just Prince Ding's side. The Crown Prince, Prince Zhou and Prince Li, which side is Shen Miao's people on?"
"Not on any side." Xie Jing Xing said.
"Eh?" Ji Yu Shu felt strange, "Why is it not on any side?"
Xie Jing Xing's eyes slightly slowed down, "Pei Lang is not an ordinary person but has yet to enter officialdom and is still immature. Just now all of you have heard that Shen Miao's moves, Shen Xin may not be able to use it as neatly as her. "
Slippery and slippery, not admit, not deny, not decline and also not accept. The officials who had been in and out of the sea of officials for many years might not be able to do it as smoothly as her. Shen Xin was a military general and Luo Xue Yan was also a military general, so where did Shen Miao learn this? Was there an expert guiding the Shen family? He originally thought so but now it seemed that it was Shen Miao's own idea. If she was the Crown Prince or other Prince's people, she would not use such a step by step planning method. Each Prince had their own power behind them, so how would they use such a clumsy method.
However she was able to maximize the goal that she could achieve within the scope of her own ability. One could not help but wonder how big of a storm she would be able to stir if she was given enough background and power. Even if she did not have any chips in her hands now, she could still slowly cultivate chess pieces.
The world was like a chess game and in this chess game of Ming Qi, there were too many people playing. But Xie Jing Xing had never placed Shen Miao in it. She was a weak female and had no motive.
But now Xie Jing Xing could see her ambition through the young female's ability to win over a hero with a cup of wine.
"But we still do not know how she knew about Pei Lang's background." Ji Yu Shu said, "Even the Feng Xian Pawnshop did not manage to find out."
Prefectural Magistrate Pei's residence used all their strength to protect this son of his, so they must have made full preparations. Pei Lang indeed did not disappoint his Father's expectations. He did not seek revenge nor did he have any resentment and concealed his identity to become a teacher. No one would pay attention to him but Shen Miao saw through his tricks and even used Liu Ying as a bargaining chip to counter Pei Lang.
One did not know where she got the news from, just like the Chen brothers previously.
"Do not care about her." Xie Jing Xing said, "Is the request for marshal written?"
"I did." Gao Yang frowned. "But are you sure …? From the start, there was no turning back. Also, the other side hasn't received any news about your plan yet. If they don't agree … "
"Do as I say." Xie Jing Xing stood up.
…
Returning to the Shen residence, in the Western courtyard, Shen Miao changed her clothes and just as she took off her hair, she saw Bai Lu rushing in and said, "Young Lady, Furen asked you to go to the room as there is an important matter to discuss."
The end of the year had passed, and it was almost spring. Because Shen Xin requested Emperor Wen Hui to stay in the Ding capital for half a year more, Luo Xue Yan's life was much more relaxed. He would go all out to buy clothes and jewellery for Shen Miao or let Shen Qiu bring Shen Miao to eat, drink and play. Sometimes Shen Miao herself felt that she was raised by Shen Xin and wife as a hedonistic son of rich parents.
Shen Miao casually tied up her hair and went to Luo Xue Yan's room. Upon entering the house, one was surprised to see that Shen Xin and Shen Qiu were also there. Seeing her enter, Luo Xue Yan quickly pulled her to sit beside her and said, "Today 'er, what did Jiao Jiao go out for?"
Shen Miao let Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang stay in the room and if anyone asked, she would say that she went out for a stroll. She said, "Casually strolled and passed by Kuai Huo Lou and brought a few jars of strong wine for Father and Eldest Brother."
"Worthy of being Father's darling!" Shen Xin's eyes brightened when he heard that, "This Ding capital's wine is too sweet and greasy. How can it be considered as wine! It is still the strong wine that is better. Satisfying! "
