Chapter 209 A Good Man Fell Into Her Hands

Mo Wuchen began to think, and after a moment he nodded seriously, "Doctor Rong, you are right."

Shen Qing was afraid that if Rong Heng continued to teach, Jing'an Palace would fall into his hands in advance, so he quickly stopped him and said, "Doctor Rong, Wuchen, Linjiang Tower launched some new special dishes yesterday, do you want to try them?"

Hearing this, the two people's attention was indeed attracted, and they said in unison, "Yes."

Mo Wuchen wanted to go to Linjiang Tower to see Lingyi, while Rong Heng simply wanted to eat.

Finally, the two funny guys were sent away, and the whole Qingzhu Garden instantly became quiet. Shen Qing asked Chanyi to go to the kitchen to prepare some food, and she and Yun Xiaoxiao had lunch together.

Shen Qing was still thinking about what happened just now, and asked Yun Xiaoxiao with curiosity, "Does your cousin really have a lover?"

Yun Xiaoxiao dismissed the maids in the courtyard, and then said to Shen Qing: "Don't listen to my master's nonsense, lover or something is pure nonsense, but I do have a very good man in my hand now, I am sure you should be interested."

Looking at Yun Xiaoxiao's mysterious expression, Shen Qing couldn't help asking: "The man that interests me?"

Yun Xiaoxiao couldn't help but chuckle: "Don't break the sentence like that, if Lu Yan hears this, it will be terrible."

After teasing Shen Qing, Yun Xiaoxiao got to the point, "A few days ago, the fifth prince of Shengjing was assassinated in Yufeng Mountain, and his whereabouts are still unknown. You must be very clear about this matter, right?"

Shen Qing responded lightly, and a very small possibility had already come to mind, but it was not certain.

The next moment, Yun Xiaoxiao affirmed: "It's just as you think. I happened to go to Minghe Mountain to collect herbs that day, and I happened to save him who was washed to the river bank with only his last breath left.

In other words, the whole Shengjing has been looking for the fifth prince Chu Lingyuan like crazy, and now he is in my hands."

Shen Qing's brain was working quickly, and it took a long time to digest this shocking news.

Now the fifth prince's party and Wu Liehou Mansion have been looking for Chu Lingyuan like crazy, and the prince's party and Duan Wang's party have been paying attention to Chu Lingyuan's whereabouts, and secretly tripped up those who were looking for Chu Lingyuan, hoping that Chu Lingyuan would never come back.

But now, such a key figure is actually in Yun Xiaoxiao's hands. If this news is spread, I'm afraid the entire Yun family will become the target of public criticism.

And Yun Xiaoxiao also thought of this, so she has not leaked any news about Chu Lingyuan so far.

"How is the fifth prince now?" Shen Qing asked. For now, the best solution is to let Chu Lingyuan return to Shengjing by himself, so that Yun Xiaoxiao's rescue can be completely concealed.

Hearing this, Yun Xiaoxiao sighed directly: "Not very good, his legs are broken, he is blind, and he has lost his memory. It is difficult for him to take care of himself, and there is no date for him to return to Beijing."

The more he talked, the sadder he became. Yun Xiaoxiao sighed with a bitter face: "How can such a good man fall into my hands and I can't give him away!"

Shen Qing was completely silent now. Suddenly he remembered something and looked up at Yun Xiaoxiao, "Cousin has placed him outside?"

Rong Heng didn't know anything about it, so Chu Lingyuan was naturally not in Yuncheng.

Yun Xiaoxiao said "um", "It's in the bamboo house under Minghe Mountain."

Minghe Mountain is dozens of miles away from Yufeng Mountain, and the bamboo house is built in a hidden place, so the chance of Xie Zhaohua and his party finding him is very small.

"Who will take care of the Fifth Prince when my cousin comes to Shengjing?"

Yun Xiaoxiao said as a matter of course, "He is alone. I have already asked Aunt Wang to send him food. We can't trouble others to take care of his daily life, right?"

Yun Xiaoxiao didn't say that even during the few days she was in the bamboo house, Chu Lingyuan took care of her most of the time. Occasionally helping out was the limit of what she could do.

Shen Qing felt that there was nothing wrong with what Yun Xiaoxiao said, and continued to think about Chu Lingyuan's follow-up handling.

At present, in the court, apart from the emperor's people, there were three forces: the prince's party headed by the Jiang Guogong Mansion, the Duan Wang party headed by Prime Minister Gu, and the Fifth Prince's party headed by the Wu Liehou Mansion.

Prince Duan Chu Lingxi has been at odds with the Marquis of Yining Mansion for a long time because of Shen Shuyu. Crown Prince Chu Lingxiu was barely on the same side with the Marquis of Yining Mansion. After Shen Qing divorced, the boundary was redrawn. As for Chu Lingyuan, he is Xie Ling's nephew and can be said to be the closest to the Marquis of Yining Mansion.

Shen Qing and Lu Yan are destined to be involved in the court situation, so they will naturally have to find a prince to support them in the end, and Chu Lingyuan is undoubtedly the best choice.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Qing turned to look at Yun Xiaoxiao, "Cousin, I'm afraid you will have to continue to take care of the Fifth Prince."

Chu Lingyuan has been missing for a long time, and the Fifth Prince's party must be panicked, but as long as they can't find him, there is still a last hope. In comparison, finding a Chu Lingyuan who is mostly disabled is more desperate.

Chu Lingyuan can return to Shengjing, but he must be a healthy Chu Lingyuan.

Now, the spies of the Crown Prince and the Prince Duan are keeping an eye on Xie Zhaohua and his party. As long as the news of Chu Lingyuan spreads out, the two parties will notice it.

If the Yun family wants to avoid being exposed, they can only wait until Chu Lingyuan recovers and then retreat.

Yun Xiaoxiao's face was pulled, and she muttered: "This hot potato really can't be handed over, right? If I had known, I would not have saved it!"

Shen Qing knew that she was just talking in anger, and she poured her a cup of tea to please her, and pulled her hand, "Good sister, there is a 1 in 2 chance that this person will be the future emperor of Da Chu, so now I can only trouble you a little."

As for why it is one-half, it is because Shen Qing will never allow Chu Lingxi to ascend the throne.

Given his obsession with Shen Shuyu, once he becomes the emperor, Shen Shuyu will be the first to bear the brunt, either being imprisoned in the palace or dying at the hands of Gu Tingyan. In short, there will be no good results, and the next to suffer is the Yining Marquisate.

So whether it is for Shen Shuyu or the Yining Marquisate, Shen Qing will do his best to stop Chu Lingxi from moving towards the high position that everyone admires.

Thinking of Shen Shuyu, Shen Qing suddenly wanted to know her current situation. Although he knew that the Yun family would not treat her badly, Shen Qing still couldn't help but worry that the girl was too soft-tempered.

"Cousin, is Shuyu adapting well in Yuncheng?"

Hearing the words "Shen Shuyu", Yun Xiaoxiao's expression suddenly became a little strange, and then nodded heavily, "Adapted, quite adapted."

Shen Qing noticed her strangeness and was a little puzzled, "Cousin, your expression is not quite right."

Yun Xiaoxiao sighed and told the truth, "Your sister is not only good-looking, but also has a good temper and sweet mouth. She caught the eye of grandfather as soon as she arrived in Yuncheng, so I had the opportunity to go out of the city to collect herbs and meet the burden of the fifth prince..."

Speaking of this, Yun Xiaoxiao paused suddenly, sighed again, and continued: "When I came back, I found that my brother who had been insensible for many years had completely fallen. Not only did he send flowers and gifts to people every few days, but he also asked people to go out to watch fireflies together. I have never seen him so enlightened in all my years."

Shen Qing was also stunned, with a look of astonishment on his face, "Cousin, are you talking about cousin Yichen?"

Yun Xiaoxiao sighed and nodded.

Shen Qing was also dumbfounded. So, after Shen Shuyu went to Yuncheng for a while, she went from being her sister to her sister-in-law?

In other words, isn’t this relationship a bit too messy!
