Chapter 91
Jiang Yun Zhu was only thankful that she didn't enter the city with Shen Feng Ming, otherwise who knows how troublesome it would be.
Thinking about it this way, she didn't even want to live in Shen Feng Ming's villa. What if someone finds out... it would be unexplainable.
It was better to go to the inn and try in case there was any vacancy.
At this time the carriage started to move forward, Jiang Yun Zhu said, "Let's go to Wenxianfang!"
This was the place she planned to go from the beginning.
"Miss, aren't you going to Lianshui Street?" Shi Liu asked. That's where Shen Feng Ming's villa was located.
Jiang Yun Zhu shook her head.
The carriage headed to Wenxianfang. Shi Liu blinked, not knowing what happened.
When they arrived at Wenxianfang, Jiang Yun Zhu wanted to find an inn to stay in, but after searching two or three inns, none of them were vacant.
Jiang Yun Zhu was anxious. What should she do?
At this moment, someone exclaimed "Miss Jiang?"
Jiang Yun Zhu turned her head and saw that it was Gu Yan Zhou, Xie Chen, and others.
"I saw you now, but didn't dare to recognize. I didn't expect it to be you. Why did you come to the capital?" Gu Yan Zhou asked.
When Jiang Yun Zhu saw them, she felt very close.
Gu Yan Zhou and Xie Chen gave the people next to them a heads up, found a teahouse with Jiang Yun Zhu, and chatted.
Jiang Yun Zhu told them why she came here. She wanted to visit the capital and vaguely revealed that she wanted to open a restaurant in the capital.
Gu Yan Zhou and Xie Chen were surprised and quickly expressed their understanding. With Jiang Yun Zhu's cooking, staying in Wuling County would kinda bury her talent.
Jiang Yun Zhu asked how the two of them did in the exam.
The two only said that it didn't go too bad and were waiting for the announcement.
Later, when they heard that Jiang Yun Zhu wanted to find a place to live, Gu Yan Zhou immediately said, "What a coincidence, the inn we’re staying at had two candidates from Jiangxi, who seemed to have failed the examination, and had left before the results were released. Miss Jiang You can stay there if you want."
Naturally, Jiang Yun Zhu couldn't want it any other way. So the tea bill was settled immediately, she went with the two to the inn where they were staying.
Sure enough, there were two upper rooms. Jiang Yun Zhu immediately settled down. She lived in one, and He Ying and Shi Liu lived in one. It was perfect.
She didn't have any luggage either. Everything was soon settled.
In the afternoon, the three of them got together and talked about their respective experiences. There were endless things to say.
When Shen Feng Ming came back, he naturally had to go into the palace to see the emperor.
When Emperor Qinglong saw that he had recovered and returned, he even uttered ‘good’ twice and talked to him for a long time before letting him go.
After leaving the palace, Shen Feng Ming went back to the Shen Manor to see his parents.
Princess Danyang and Academician Shen weren't at home. Today Elder Cabinet Li's family had a new legitimate grandson. They went to give gifts together.
Seeing the child's joint-like arms and round, chubby face, the two of them were both happy and depressed. They didn't know when they would be able to hold their grandson.
On the way back from Elder Cabinet Li's hometown, the two quarreled again. As they quarreled, they both became disinterested.
At this time, the servant came to report that Gentleman had returned. The two of them were immediately overjoyed. Shen Feng Ming went away for two or three months. They were worried about him and thought about him day and night. It felt as if their days were like years.
Now, he was finally back!
"Greeting Father and Mother." Shen Feng Ming bowed the two of them.
Princess Danyang took his hand, looked him up and down, and found that he was well. He looked even more dignified than before. Her heart finally settled back in place.
Academician Shen stood at the side with his hands together, looking at Shen Feng Ming. He saw it more thoroughly than anyone else. He found that Shen Feng Ming seemed to have changed with this return. It wasn't the outside, it was the inside.
In the past, Shen Feng Ming was like a sword. A ruthless murder weapon. But now he had some other emotions in him.
He didn't know whether it was good or not.
With his personality, it was easy to go to the extreme. He sighed lightly.
The three of them haven't seen each other for a long time. Princess Danyang and Academician Shen both have a lot to say to Shen Feng Ming. For once, the two didn't quarrel.
As the conversation went, Princess Danyang mentioned that she liked the food that Shen Feng Ming brought back last time and wondered who made it.
Also, Shen Feng Ming was in Lu Prefecture this time...
Speaking of this, Academician Shen became energetic.
However, Shen Feng Ming skipped a bit and talked about something else.
At noon, the family had a meal. In the afternoon Shen Feng Ming went to the Division, where there were many things waiting for him to deal with.
In the evening, Yang Sheng came to Shen Feng Ming's place nice and early. He had missed Jiang Yun Zhu's cooking for a long time. So did his mother. She whispered in his ear every day. Now that Jiang Yun Zhu came, it was wonderful.
After Shen Feng Ming finished sorting out the matters, the two of them were about to head out, but someone sent a message.
Shen Feng Ming opened it. His black eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of frost.
Yang Sheng stealthily glanced at the note, wanting to tease Shen Feng Ming a bit. But noticing his bad mood, he left and went home tactfully. It was better not to mess with those with a knocked over vinegar jar. Especially his superior’s icy jar of vinegar.
Gu Yan Zhou and Xie Chen have stayed in the capital for a while. Now that Jiang Yun Zhu was here, they would naturally take her out for a stroll.
This place wasn't far from Liji Steamed Bun store. Their steamed buns were very famous. So they took her to eat buns.
There were a lot of people in the bun store, so it took a while.
After they came out, it was already dark. The curfew in the capital was late, so it didn't matter. Today was the twelfth. The bright moon at Changsong Bridge was perfect. So they took her to have a look.
At this time, there were many literati in the capital. The bright moon over the Changsong Bridge was a grand scene in the capital. Many people here were reciting poems, composing, chatting and laughing. It was quite lively.
Jiang Yun Zhu took in the bright moon for a while and was in a good mood after listening to Gu Yan Zhou and Xie Chen’s allusions about this place.
At 7pm, the three of them returned to the inn.
"It's getting late. Wash up and quickly go to bed." Jiang Yun Zhu directed to He Ying and Shi Liu as she walked to her room.
He Ying nodded, while Shi Liu suddenly became alert. There was someone in Jiang Yun Zhu's room!
At this time, Jiang Yun Zhu had already pushed open the door of the room. Shi Liu was about to meet the enemy head on. When she saw who was inside, she immediately became as obedient as a kitten. She thought to herself, no wonder she came in so far and only to notice someone in the room now. It turned out to be Commissioner-in-chief Shen.
It was just that Commissioner-in-chief Shen didn't look very happy...
Shi Liu wanted to remind Jiang Yun Zhu, but in the end she didn't dare to speak and went to fetch water for Jiang Yun Zhu.
Oh right, she took He Ying away.
Jiang Yun Zhu's eyesight wasn't as good as Shi Liu's. In such a dark room, how could she see anyone in it? After receiving the pack of fish balls that was bought at a small stall, she went straight into the room.
After lighting the candle, she saw someone sitting on the bed.
It was Shen Feng Ming! She recognized him instantly.
There was a breeze in the room. It made the candle flame flicker and Shen Feng Ming's face also became bright and dark along with it. It made it difficult for people to see his expression clearly.
"Official Shen." Jiang Yun Zhu made the candle brighter, completely illuminating Shen Feng Ming and everything around her. She felt better.
"Why aren't you staying in the villa?" Shen Feng Ming's voice didn't change.
Jiang Yun Zhu hesitated for a moment before answering, "I have found a place to stay, so I don't want to bother Official Shen."
Shen Feng Ming’s black eyes stared at Jiang Yun Zhu, "You would rather trouble Gu Yan Zhou than trouble me?"
Jiang Yun Zhu sensed that he seemed to be angry. She didn't trouble Gu Yan Zhou. Just happened to encounter him.
At this time, Shen Feng Ming said again, "I don't think it's troublesome. Besides, I promised your mother to take good care of you."
Jiang Yun Zhu: ... Wasn't it polite words?
She didn't speak. Neither did Shen Feng Ming. The room instantly fell silent.
Jiang Yun Zhu thought for a while before deciding to explain, "Official Shen, I just arrived in the capital and am staying in your villa. If someone finds out..."
Shen Feng Ming frowned, "You don't have to worry about these."
Jiang Yun Zhu was helpless. How could she not be worried?
She said tactfully: "Official Shen, it's getting late."
Shen Feng Ming looked at her. Being stared at by his deep eyes, Jiang Yun Zhu felt self-conscious for a moment. When Jiang Yun Zhu was hesitating whether to say a few more words, Shen Feng Ming suddenly spoke in a low voice, "I've been here waiting for you."
These words in Jiang Yun Zhu's mouth were choked back.
She looked at Shen Feng Ming and Shen Feng Ming looked straight at her. Their eyes met. Jiang Yun Zhu asked, "Have you eaten yet?"
Shen Feng Ming stared at her and shook his head.
Then he waited for her on an empty stomach?
She didn't know if there was any food outside at this time. She only had a pack of fish balls in her hand, which she had taken a bite before.
Shen Feng Ming followed her gaze to look at the fish balls.
"Then Official Shen..."
Shortly later, Jiang Yun Zhu sat on a chair and watched Shen Feng Ming eat those fish balls. This inn and this fish ball were a mismatch to him. But he didn't seem to feel it at all. He was very happy to eat it.
When the night wind blew and blew the candles, Jiang Yun Zhu let out a light, long breath.
After eating the fish balls, Shen Feng Ming had no intention of leaving. He even sat back on the bed.
