After breaking off the engagement, the daughter-in-law of the Hou family drove the boss in the capit

Chapter 70 Chapter 71
The faint scent of camellia made Shen Weixun slightly addicted.

"It was Miss Lin who saved Shen's family many times. These things are all what Shen should do!" Shen Weixun picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp. However, compared to Lin Jianyue's drinking, Shen Weixun drank more. Somewhat wanton.

"Although Miss Lin broke off her engagement with the prince this time, she won sympathy and a good reputation, but the prince has always been unyielding, so the girl still has to be careful in the future!" Shen Weixun reminded.

Shen Weixun shouldn't say this. After all, his relationship with Lin Jianyue has not reached such a heart-to-heart level. He just looks at Lin Jianyue, a girl with such courage and extraordinary resourcefulness. Could not bear.

I can't bear to see such a chic woman being ruined by someone like the prince.

"Thanks for the reminder, Crown Prince, but being engaged to someone like the Crown Prince is so disgusting! Although this move is dangerous, it may not be a dead end!" Lin Jianyue smiled.

Her smile was light, like a light cloud, mixed with melancholy but also bright.

Shen Weixun looked at Lin Jianyue in a daze, his eyes as tender as water, full of curiosity and appreciation for Lin Jianyue.

"The prince is knowledgeable and talented. I would like to find out how the place like Fengcheng is?" Lin Jianyue personally poured wine for Shen Weixun with a very humble attitude.

Lin Jianyue's words were not a compliment. After all, Shen Weixun was indeed knowledgeable and talented. Even the great scholars at that time praised Shen Weixun. Not to mention, Shen Weixun's scientific examination articles were still used by many students. Please read it.

Shen Weixun waved his hand. He didn't know how many times he had heard these compliments, but now when he heard Lin Jianyue's compliments, he felt as if his ears were caressed by a soft breath, and his heart was trembling.

"When my father proposed it, he originally wanted to allocate a fiefdom from the Jiangnan area to Miss Lin, so that Miss Lin could rely on her in the future. But my father did something bad out of kindness, and His Majesty actually thought about it and divided Fengcheng to the girl!" Shen Weixun He sighed, feeling a pity.

After taking a sip of sake, Shen Weixun continued to explain, "Fengcheng is located in the north, which was invaded by the Western Shu Kingdom many years ago. It's a coincidence that it was Miss Lin's father, Marquis Wu'an, who led the troops to recapture Fengcheng!"

Hearing Shen Weixun mention his father, Lin Jianyue's heart softened. It turned out that Fengcheng and he had such a fate.

"Although Fengcheng was recaptured, Fengcheng has been invaded and ruined by the officers and soldiers of Xishu. It is in a dilapidated state. It was originally located in the north with poor terrain and soil. Later, the imperial court stopped caring about it. Over the years, Fengcheng was not only poor. It's still a mess!" At this point, Shen Weixun frowned, feeling helpless but unable to do anything, only feeling depressed in his chest.

The royal family lived in luxury and enjoyment, but many of the people of Dongshan Kingdom were living in dire straits. Not only did the imperial court not think about relief, but now they even threw such a mess to a weak woman.

Lin Jianyue listened with some rapt attention. She could easily see the unwillingness on Shen Weixun's face and asked, "Forget about poverty, what's going on with the chaos?"

Shen Weixun originally didn't want to tell Lin Jianyue those dirty things, but looking at Lin Jianyue's clean eyes, he suddenly felt that he should tell Lin Jianyue to prevent her from knowing anything about Fengcheng.

"Over the years, the imperial court has ignored Fengcheng. Fengcheng has become a place where many religions and religions hang around. There are even soldiers from Western Shu coming there from time to time to plunder women and food!" Shen Weixun's tone was a little heavy.

"boom!"

Lin Jianyue dropped the wine cup heavily on the table, with an expression of disbelief and anger, "Does the imperial court really not know that the soldiers of Xishu are so cruel to the people, and they don't care about it?"

Shen Weixun didn't need to answer, Lin Jianyue smiled bitterly, "Yes, why would the court care?"

Although Lin Jianyue was just a boudoir girl, she also knew that the current Dongshan Kingdom was weaker than the Western Shu Kingdom.In recent years, the royal family was afraid of losing military power, so it focused on civil affairs over military affairs. The military strength has long been reduced to what it used to be.There were even frictions on the border between Dongshan Kingdom and Western Shu Kingdom on several occasions. Before the war broke out, the emperor had already negotiated peace. Over the years, he sent horses and silver to Western Shu Kingdom.

Although Lin Jianyue had never seen the lives of the people in Fengcheng or the war on the border, she still felt extremely chilled.

In recent years, the royal family has been carrying out large-scale construction projects and building palaces and temples, but they have never looked down at the people.

In recent years, the emperor has always been afraid of this and that, so many brave and capable generals have retired and returned to their hometowns.

"The Tian family is ruthless!" Shen Weixun smiled bitterly, thinking of his father.

At that time, his father, the Prince of England, was also a famous military general, and he also wanted to protect his family and country. Unfortunately, His Majesty was jealous and jealous. For the sake of his mother, his father had to surrender his military power and become a consort.

And he has been covering up the fact that he has great martial arts skills since he was a child and became a civil servant, but he can't change anything.

Lin Jianyue and Shen Weixun both felt a little uncomfortable, but they also knew that they were unable to change anything at this time, and they were not immersed in resentment and annoyance.

"Since Fengcheng is now my fiefdom, I should always do something for the people there!" Lin Jianyue's voice was very soft, but her expression was extremely serious.

Shen Weixun looked at Lin Jianyue's thin shoulders. He wanted to persuade Lin Jianyue not to do those useless efforts, but he couldn't say it because he admired Lin Jianyue's courage.

Such a frail and delicate woman cared so much about the people, even knowing what Fengcheng was like, she never wanted to give up. Such resilience was rare even for Shen Weixun.

At this moment, Shen Weixun realized very clearly that Lin Jianyue was different, and this difference was deeply attracting him.

At this time, there was a rapid knock on the door. Shen Weixun stood up and opened the door of the box, and saw Li Enzheng, who was once Miss Zhou's cousin and now Lin Jianyue's maid, standing anxiously outside the room.

"Miss, something happened in the house!"

As soon as Lin Jianyue heard this, before she could say anything, Shen Weixun hurriedly said, "Miss Lin, go and get busy. See you soon!"

Lin Jianyue nodded slightly, followed Li En and left quickly from the back door, got into a carriage, and the carriage drove quickly towards the Wu'an Hou Mansion.

"I don't know what is happening in the mansion now, but there is a maid in Yue Pavilion who has sent a message to me!" Li En said.

Lin Jianyue just felt uneasy. She didn't expect Wang to be so impatient and ready to take action, but now the only thing she cared about most in the mansion was Granny Wei.

Thinking of Aunt Wei's ending in her previous life, Lin Jianyue's clasped hands turned white.

"Hurry up!" Lin Jianyue asked the groom to hurry up, praying over and over again in her heart that nothing would happen to Aunt Wei. If something happened to Aunt Wei, she would definitely make Wu'an Marquis pay the price today.

The horse ran hard, but before the carriage could stop, Lin Jianyue jumped out of the carriage and ran towards the backyard.
