Chapter 2035 Extraordinary
Mingxi and the others were still strolling around the city leisurely. He and Ye Zhen had their own way of communicating. Knowing that the parents were still enjoying themselves somewhere, they were not in a hurry to go to sea. He did not rush to Tianjin either. , take Miao'er for a while first. They will go to sea in the future, and they don't know when they can come back.
They had been playing in the city for less than two hours when Mingxi knew that Lei Bingfu and the others had been robbed outside the city.
"This Lei Bingfu..." A faint smile flashed across Mingxi's handsome face. If there was no one from him to help, how would she find a way out of trouble? I always felt like she wasn't someone who could be easily defeated.
"You seem to be very concerned about this Miss Lei." Mei'er took Mingxi's hand and looked at him seriously.
Mingxi smiled and said, "reach some agreement with her."
Xu Jinbei heard their conversation and glanced at Mingxi, "Is there anything special about Lei Bingfu?"
"She has a complicated mind and is cunning. She is aboveboard and free-spirited." Mingxi said softly, "She is determined to be in the palace. Helping her also makes her owe a favor."
"Do you want her to be able to help Mingyu in the palace in the future?" Xu Jinbei was a smart man and immediately understood Mingxi's intention of helping Lei Bingfu.
Mingxi nodded lightly and continued walking calmly, not forgetting to buy a warm hat for Mi'er. "Uncle Sixth can protect Mingyu, but there will be many changes after the beautiful girl enters the palace in the future. Someone will help her." So is she."
The women in the harem are insidious, and sometimes they are even more ruthless than the men.
No matter how much Uncle Six doted on Mingyu, he couldn't stay in the harem to protect her all the time.
There are always times when people are negligent.
"You have thought carefully." Xu Jinbei thought of the jewel-like person in the palace and felt that Mingxi had really put all his thought into this sister.
"Mingxi, look, they are fighting!" Huohuang, who had been walking in the front, spoke more excitedly.
Miao'er's eyes lit up and she immediately ran in the direction of Fire Phoenix.
Although Xu Jinbei didn't spend much time with Mi'er and the others, he had a vague feeling that they were not ordinary people and they rarely went out, so he was full of curiosity about everything.
"Go over and take a look." Mingxi's tone was a little helpless. Although he was also a young man, he was a little more calm than his peers.
What Huohuang saw was not a fight, but a competition to attract a bride. There were two big men on the ring fighting each other, and there were shouts of approval all around.
"Is there any prize for winning?" Huohuang asked a passerby excitedly.
"Of course, the lucky number is Miss Shen." The passers-by laughed loudly. Seeing that Huohuang was only a teenager, they jokingly said, "Isn't the young man also interested? You are so young, I'm afraid Miss Shen still looks at it." Not pleasing to the eye.”
When Huohuang heard that they were competing in a martial arts contest to recruit a bride, he immediately lost all interest.
"What is a contest to recruit a bride?" Miao asked curiously.
"Set up an arena, and whoever wins the fight will be that woman's husband." Huohuang explained simply, "That Miss Shen must be too ugly to marry, otherwise why would she have to compete in martial arts to recruit a bride?"
When the passerby just heard what Huo Huang said, he turned around and said in a low voice, "Young man, be careful what you say. This Shen family was originally a sinner, but it was only after Jinshang ascended the throne that he turned over. I heard that Mr. Shen and Jinshang were old friends, and now Bailongjiang Who in Canghai City doesn’t know that Mr. Shen is in control of the entire water transport. The eldest daughter of the Shen family is the one who is looking for a bride. The second daughter of the Shen family is already a beautiful girl. With the friendship between Mr. Shen and Jin Shang, glory and wealth are just around the corner. .”
Mingxi and Xu Jinbei exchanged glances. Neither of them had heard of the Shen family. Today, it sounded like they had a relatively small background.
"Why are there so many beautiful girls everywhere?" Mi'er felt bored. All beautiful girls had to live in the palace, and they had to live in such a small place for the rest of their lives. It was boring.
"The Emperor's draft is a major event in the world. Anyone old enough must register and be screened." Mingxi said lightly. On the other hand, the draft is actually quite laborious and costly.
Huohuang asked, "Would you like to find out who Miss Shen is?"
"No need, there are so many beautiful girls, we can't check them all." Mingxi said.
Xu Jinbei frowned and thought.
"What's wrong?" Mingxi asked him in a low voice.
"I'm wondering...if this Shen family is the Shen family I think of." Xu Jinbei whispered, "When Prince Qin was still the emperor, he ordered an old case to be investigated, which was related to the Shen family."
Seeing Xu Jinbei's serious expression, Mingxi became more curious, "Which Shen family?"
They walked a few steps away, and there was no one else around. Xu Jinbei said, "I heard my grandfather mention it once, and this matter is very involved. Shen Yuexuan was very wealthy back then, but he kept his name anonymously to cover up his ancestors." For the crime of framing others, the King of Qin reopened the case to find out the truth. Shen Yuexuan finally dissipated all his family wealth to save his life, and disappeared with his only daughter. I heard... He was close friends with Jin Shang, who was still the sixth prince. "
"Oh?" Mingxi had never heard of this and just turned his eyes to the ring indifferently.
"However, Shen Yuexuan should only have one daughter." Xu Jinbei said.
Mingxi said, "No matter how many daughters he has, they are the business of the Shen family. Uncle Six is not a favoritist. If it is really Shen Yuexuan, it proves that this person does have some talent."
Being able to achieve today's achievements with a sinful body is not something that just anyone can do.
"Huh?" Huo Huang suddenly called out.
"What's wrong?" Mingxi asked.
Huohuang said, "I seem to see Teng Ye."
Why is Teng Ye here?
"Check the Shen family." Mingxi whispered. He believed that Huo Huang would not misjudge the person. If Teng Ye really appeared here, it would be really unusual.
There was still no winner in the arena, but everyone who participated in the competition was invited by the Shen family. From the beginning to the end, the eldest lady of the Shen family did not show up.
"How about we go to the Shen family and have a look." Huohuang said with a smile.
Mingxi rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not in a hurry anyway, so I just went to take a look."
"What should I do if someone recognizes me?" Xu Jinbei asked.
Huo Huang chuckled, "We can also teach people to recognize them."
The Shen family that has been so prosperous in Canghai City in the past two years is indeed the Shen family that was extremely wealthy back then. The master of the Shen family is Shen Yuexuan. Since Murong Ke came to the throne, he has no longer been secretive about doing small business. Under the care of his former friends, Next, he expanded his business to water transportation. Although he is not as rich as he was back then, he has achieved a small amount of success. When his daughter enters the palace in the future, the real wealth and prosperity of the Shen family will come.
"Sir, Mr. Ye is here." The attendant came in and whispered back, "Waiting for you in the dark room."
"How are the preparations for the banquet?" Shen Yuexuan stood up. He was already middle-aged and well-maintained, and still had the handsome demeanor of the past.
"Everything is ready."
Shen Yuexuan nodded with satisfaction and walked towards the study.
