Chapter 163 Is This Serving Enough?

Shen Liuzhen looked blank on the surface, and followed step by step. In fact, he had already envisioned all kinds of possibilities in his heart, and was always ready to show a "suitable" expression.

When the car door opened and Zong Ai inside was revealed, Shen Liuzhen was shocked for a moment, and immediately greeted him excitedly with tears in his eyes, and said:

"My lord, are you still alive?"

Seeing Shen Liuzhen's expression, Zong Ai put his heart in his stomach immediately, and said with a smile: "Come up, go to your house, I have something to discuss with you."

Upon hearing this, Shen Liuzhen quickly looked around vigilantly, wiped his tears, and said, "Yes, yes, yes... This is not a place to talk."

He didn't move, and stood directly beside the carriage, beckoning to Xie Yuan who was opposite: "Ah Yuan, let's go home first, go home."

After finishing speaking, he directly got into Zong Ai's carriage.

Xie Yuan looked at the seven people following the carriage, his expression still solemn.

She wouldn't think that Shen Liuzhen's appearance just now meant that she really met an old acquaintance.

They grew up together, maybe others couldn't tell the difference, but she was tricked by Shen Liuzhen's acting skills countless times since she was a child.So much so that she didn't have to pay much attention, she could tell whether he was acting just by looking at his expression.

For example, he was acting just now, and he was very nervous, even exaggerated.

Xie Yuan walked up to the carriage driven by Liu Qinbing, got into the carriage directly, and ordered Liu Qinbing to follow closely. She squatted at the door of the carriage, opened the door, and was prepared to fly up at any time.

In this way, the two carriages, one in front and one behind, left the city slowly and headed for the suburban garden.

In the carriage ahead, Shen Liuzhen hugged Zong Ai's arm affectionately, pursed his mouth and said with tears in his eyes:

"My lord, you are still alive. When I heard that you were dead, I was sad and scared, so I left the capital and ran back home. It's great that you are fine."

Zong Ai still had some doubts about Shen Liuzhen, but it was because he ran back home that he put aside his doubts and said with a sigh:

"Don't mention it. Fortunately, I have a backup, otherwise I would really be dead."

Shen Liuzhen wiped away his tears and asked, "What's going on? Did your lord win again and regain control of the court?"

Zong Ai sighed, and said dejectedly: "It's useless to control the court. I found a substitute, beheaded and scratched my face to fake the illusion of death, and escaped from the capital overnight. But..."

As he spoke, his slumped eyes changed, and he returned to that sinister look, and he said through gritted teeth:
"As long as our family is not dead, we can't forget about it. Those Xianbei people, if I hadn't dealt with His Majesty for them, they would have been killed by the prince long ago. Why are they here today? Now if they turn their faces and kick them away, I will kick them away." Leave me alone, if I don't turn them upside down, I won't be called Zong Ai!"

Shen Liuzhen asked in confusion: "...how about...?"

Zong Ai squinted at Shen Liuzhen and asked, "Where's your father?"

Shen Liuzhen was stunned for a moment, and then said impatiently: "Why mention him, he is his general in the south, when did he take care of me?"

Zong Ai looked at him and said anxiously: "Silly boy, is dad really his own dad? He has no choice but to ignore you? You can't stay in Wei now, so you didn't think about going to the south to find your dad. Let him recommend you to be an official in Song State?"

Shen Liuzhen's eyes flickered for a while, and after a while he said, "My teacher treats me well, and I don't want to leave him. My teacher said that it's good to stay at home, it's safe."

Zong Ai tried hard to persuade him, his thin face was wrinkled and furrowed, and he said in a strange way:
"Hey~ As the saying goes, wealth and wealth come from danger, look at your little guts, what big things can you do in the future?"

Shen Liuzhen folded his sleeves, pursed his mouth, and did not speak.

Seeing him like this, Zong Ai felt disgusted for a while, and kept rolling his eyes.asked:
"How far is it to your house?"

Shen Liuzhen looked outside, his eyes turned to Xie Yuan who was following behind, the two met a tacit look, he put his head back, and said:

"We'll be there soon." Then he said enthusiastically, "My lord, it's hard to escape from birth. It's important to save your life first. At this time, the government must be clearing up your people. You should hide in my house for a while. Let’s discuss things slowly.”

Zong Ai crossed Erlang's legs indifferently, and said with a sneer, "What are you afraid of? I have already run to the border, and none of them know who I am? What's more, everyone in Beijing thinks I'm dead. Don't worry." , won't cause you any trouble."

Shen Liuzhen thought for a while, and said: "What I'm talking about... But my lord, let's be more careful. Be careful when sailing for ten thousand years. It seems that just now, your servant, good guy, you are so aggressive on the street. ... Wouldn't it be troublesome to cause Xianbei people to interrogate you later?"

"Okay, okay... Our family knows that you are doing it for my own good, so stop talking." Zong Ai said in a helpless tone, comforting him.

Just like that, the two of them didn't speak any more, and went straight to Shen's house.

Zong Ai led people into the yard vigilantly, followed by Xie Yuan and Liu Qinbing, and Shen Liuzhen directly locked the gate.

Zong Ai looked at the desolate and empty courtyard, and asked:
"Why is there no one in your house?"

Shen Liuzhen walked up to him and said, "Hey, since this place has returned to the State of Wei, and I have entered Pingcheng again, it is impossible for my father to come back. This yard has been occupied by no one, and it has always been my teacher and teacher's wife. Somebody tidy up and clean up...there is no master to live in, what do you need so many servants for?"

Zong Ai understood, and looked at Xie Yuan again, seeing Xie Yuan's stern face, tall and straight figure, and a pair of red phoenix eyes that were extremely powerful.

He looked her up and down carefully, and said:
"This young man is so handsome. Judging by his posture, he is a soldier? ... Who is he?"

Zong Ai looked at Shen Liuzhen and asked, with vigilance in his eyes.

Shen Liuzhen quickly said: "He is the teacher's son. My lord has good eyesight. She works under my father's command, and now she has free time to go home to visit her relatives."

When Zong Ai heard this, he immediately opened his eyebrows with a smile, looked at the light in Xie Yuan's eyes, and said:

"Hahaha... Isn't this a good thing? It just so happens that I want to join the Southern Song Dynasty. Even if you don't go, there are ready-made people here who can match me up."

Xie Yuan's vigilant eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked, "Who are you? Do you have a bargaining chip if you want to join us?"

Shen Liuzhen smiled, and quietly took two steps to the side, moving away from Zong Ai and the others, and then stood aside, watching Zong Ai talking to Xie Yuan, with an unknown light in his eyes.

"I am Zong Ai, Shi Yu Foli's confidant and constant attendant, later Grand Master, Da Sima, how about this weight, is it enough?" Zong Ai raised his eyebrows, his voice was high and shrill, and his eyebrows were beaming with pride.
