Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 47

"I've seen Princess Qingyan." Ruo Shiyu smiled and bowed.

"Sister Ruo, long time no see, you are really more and more beautiful!" Liu Qingyan took her arm affectionately and led them to sit down at a table beside her.

"Princess Qingyan made fun of me again." Ruo Shiyu pursed her lips and smiled, and there was some politeness between the two of them.

Liu Qingyan glanced at Shen Lanze, saw that he was staring at the shop and looking around, raised her eyebrows slightly: "Why does this young man look familiar?"

"Sinking Lanze."

Liu Qingyan was stunned when she heard the name, recalling that afternoon many years ago.

At a young age, like other girls, she fell in love with Taifu Shen's grandson Shen Lanze at first sight.

So she deliberately waited outside the door of Shen's mansion, nervously clutching the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, waiting for Shen Lanze to come out from inside.

Soon, the door of Shen's residence was pushed open, and a handsome young man came out from inside.

His eyes are handsome and his temperament is extraordinary, but his eyes are indifferent and distant, making people dare not approach him. He is like the purest snow lotus on Tianshan Mountain, making people feel far away and unreachable, yet making people want to approach him.

"Master Shen..." she called softly.

Shen Lanze paused for a moment, stopped and turned to look at her.

He looks very beautiful, with red lips and white teeth, delicate and perfect facial features, like a fairy boy in a painting.

Liu Qingyan blushed, lowered her head shyly, and bit the corner of her mouth unnaturally.

"What's the matter with you?" A clear and pleasant voice sounded.

Liu Qingyan suddenly looked up, Shen Lanze was standing two or three meters in front of her, the sun was shining on him, and his whole body revealed a kind of soft warmth.

She stared at him blankly, ignoring his indifferent attitude when he spoke, the young man in front of her was like a masterpiece.

She couldn't help but blurted out: "You are so pretty!"

Shen Lanze narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at her for a moment, then sneered and said, "Girl, it's better to be more reserved!"

After that, he turned and left.

"Princess, shall we go back?" The maid Qiushui heard the sarcasm in these words, wanted to stop the lady from continuing, and pulled her sleeves to persuade her.

Liu Qingyan pushed Qiushui's hand away, and hurried to catch up to stop him, "Mr. Shen, don't get me wrong! I didn't mean that!"

Shen Lanze didn't seem to understand what she meant, raised his eyebrows lightly, and asked, "Then what do you mean?"

Liu Qingyan gritted her teeth, summoned up her courage and said, "I mean I like you! I want to marry you!"

At the same time, she handed over the handkerchief in her hand, shyly not daring to look up at him.

Shen Lanze looked at Liu Qingyan with his hands behind his back, and said indifferently: "I don't like you, and I won't marry you, girl, please respect yourself."

After that, he strode away from her, leaving only her back.

Liu Qingyan stared blankly at the direction he left, tears streaming down her eyes.

She is a majestic princess who was rejected by others in public. If this matter is spread, she will not have the face to live in the future, let alone her father is an important official of the court.

The more she thought about it, the sadder she became, and tears flowed out uncontrollably. She covered her chest and wept.

"Princess." Qiu Shui's anxious voice came.

Liu Qingyan turned back sobbing: "Qiu Shui, he, he rejected me! Huh..."

"Princess, let's go back." Qiu Shui already knew the outcome of this matter. You must know that this talented young man has a fiancée, but the lady thinks too much of herself and thinks that no one can match her.

It was this incident that made Liu Qingyan the laughing stock of the capital. Some people said that she had no shame and said all kinds of ugly things.

She was a proud and self-willed woman, but she was ridiculed and humiliated like that, and she felt that she lost her face, so she locked herself in the room without eating or drinking.

Thanks to her mother's persuasion, she was able to come out of the room, otherwise she would have died by now. .

Thinking back, Liu Qingyan looked at the young man with red lips and white teeth and handsome eyebrows, covered the disgust in his eyes and smiled and said: "It turned out to be Mr. Shen. I heard that Taifu Shen colluded with the ministers of the court and was beheaded for embezzling officials. The family also disappeared overnight, I thought Mr. Shen followed, but I didn't expect you to be alive."

When Shen Lanze heard it, his expression was the same, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

On the contrary, Ruo Shiyu's face was a little stiff, and she glanced at the people beside her and couldn't help but argue: "Princess Qingyan, Grandpa Shen didn't collude with court ministers, let alone embezzle money, Grandpa Shen was wronged."

"Oh?" Liu Qingyan chuckled lightly, "If that's the case, why hasn't anyone cleared up the grievances of Mrs. Shen after so many years?"

Ruo Shiyu was startled, and looked up at Liu Qingyan: "Because..."

She wanted to explain something, but Liu Qingyan obviously didn't give her this chance.

"If it's better for my younger sister to speak carefully, so as not to cause trouble for the upper body, this case was tried by the emperor himself. Could it be that you think that the emperor is so stupid that he can even make a wrong judgment on a case? And Shen... no, he is now a slave, so he is worthy of it." Such a title as son."

Ruo Shiyu's face was livid, and her eyes were full of anger. She looked at Liu Qingyan with gloomy eyes.

Liu Qingyan stared at Ruo Shiyu tenderly as if she hadn't noticed her anger.

Suddenly, thinking of something, she covered her lips and smiled, and her charming and enchanting eyes turned to Shen Lanze.

"You were not demoted to slavery and exiled, why did you appear in the capital? Could it be that you want to drag sister Ruo's pomegranate skirt to climb up?" Liu Qingyan's words were somewhat mocking.

She still remembers how Shen Lanze made her a laughing stock in the capital.

Then she pointed to several bottles of spices in the distance, and introduced softly: "I just made these last night, you can choose them at will."

"Sister Ruo, let me advise you, don't just judge people by their faces. He is just a slave who is bullied by others. The reason why he pleases you is because he wants to use your pomegranate skirt to return to the capital." Liu Qingyan finished speaking , walked upstairs without looking back.

Shen Lanze didn't say a word from the beginning to the end. The two left Xue Ningtang, just bumped into Lu Nanzhi who had been wandering outside.

Looking at each other, Lu Nanzhi blinked in embarrassment, and waved at the two, "What a coincidence, are you here to buy rouge?"

"Miss Lu also comes here to buy rouge?" Ruo Shiyu smiled indifferently, and looked at Lu Nanzhi not as softly as before, but seemed more hostile.

Lu Nanzhi didn't know how to answer the question. She was selling rouge, so why did she come here to buy rouge, but she couldn't tell the truth.

Shen Lanze saw her embarrassment, and said softly with his eyes: "Didn't I tell you to wait for me in the yard, why did you run out?"

"I, I didn't wait for you to be too anxious, so I came out and took a look." Lu Nanzhi was stunned for a moment and realized that Shen Lanze was helping her resolve the embarrassing situation.

If Shiyu saw everything in her eyes, how could she not know that Shen Lanze was lying, but she didn't expose it.

"If that's the case, I won't bother you." Ruo Shiyu turned and left with a smile on her face. After turning around, the smile on her mouth fell, and the hand beside her unconsciously clenched the embroidered handkerchief in her hand.

Lu Nanzhi and Shen Lanze were silent on the way back, and neither of them spoke.
