Chapter 75
"Be careful, I'm Daddy, are you asleep?"
"Jinyan, are you asleep? If you don't speak, will daddy open the door and come in?"
There was no answer in the room for a long time, Shen Tiancheng called out twice, but still there was no sound, he turned his head and glanced at Lu Donglin, "Master Lu, my little girl is probably asleep, look at this——"
"Lord Shen, the emperor's order is hard to break, so I will be offended!"
While speaking, Lu Donglin directly raised his hand and pushed open the door. However, just as he took a step in, a scream pierced the silence of the entire courtyard.
"what--"
The shout just fell, followed by another plop.
When Shen Tiancheng heard that the scream was Shen Jinyan's voice, he realized that something was wrong, pushed Lu Donglin away, took the first step into the room, and saw the scene of water splashing behind the screen.
"By the way, what happened?"
Even Shen Tiancheng couldn't help but blush when he vaguely saw Shen Jinyan's disheveled clothes behind the screen.
"Jinyan, what are you—" Shen Tiancheng didn't know what to say later, but instead coldly snorted and scolded: "I just called you so many times outside, why don't you know how to answer?"
Facing Shen Tiancheng's questioning, Shen Jinyan said full of grievances, "Daddy, I'm taking a bath! The sound is too loud, I can't hear it clearly for a while, and I haven't put on my clothes yet, can you please?" Go out first, and come in after I get dressed."
"You—" Shen Tiancheng was about to reprimand, but Lu Donglin next to him hurriedly said: "Miss Shen, we are on business under the orders of the emperor, please move quickly, so that we don't waste our time."
Hearing these unkind words, Shen Jinyan couldn't help but sneer in his heart, and the tone of the words that followed were also not much better.
"Master Lu is on an official mission, so I dare not stop him, but I haven't fully dressed yet, Master Lu, do you want to come in?"
"Miss Shen is just joking, the officials don't dare to break into Miss Shen's boudoir."
"Don't dare to break in, hehe, I think you are very brave, Mr. Lu. Just now you just pushed the door open without my consent. May I ask you that you still don't dare to break in?"
Seeing that Shen Jinyan pursued his responsibility, Lu Donglin couldn't help frowning, not to mention Shen Tiancheng's face, he didn't dare to do anything to Shen Jinyan?Even Shen Jinyan's current identity cannot be changed at will.
Furthermore, once Shen Jinyan becomes prosperous in the future and really becomes the Ninth Princess, even if he is not favored, it does not mean that Huang Pu Xize will not care about this matter. What did Xi Ze do to him?But being stared at all the time as prey is not a very good way of life.
"Miss Shen, I was the one who was reckless just now, please don't take offense, Miss Shen!"
"What's the matter? Master Lu, you're on an errand according to the order. If I'm offended, wouldn't it be against the order?" Shen Jinyan said with a half-smile, "In order to prove that I, Shen Jinyan, am innocent and loyal to the emperor, and I won't delay your errand, Mr. Lu. Come in right now and see if there is any assassin you want to catch in my room!"
Before Lu Donglin could speak, Shen Tiancheng yelled, "It's just nonsense!"
This time, Shen Tiancheng was once again very angry by Shen Jinyan, after all, this man broke into his daughter's boudoir in the middle of the night, if this matter got out, the reputation of the Prime Minister's house might be damaged further.
Facing Shen Tiancheng's scolding, Shen Jinyan ignored it.
"What? Master Lu, don't you dare? I'm the first to say something ugly. I don't even care about my reputation at the moment, but you dare not come in to search for assassins, Master Lu. Then don't blame me for not giving it to you later." Chance?"
"Miss Shen, what do you mean?" Lu Donglin asked coldly.
Thinking that he is also the most respected person around the emperor, but now he is being provoked again and again by a yellow-haired girl, no matter how good his temper is, he can't help but get angry!
"Lord Lu, what I mean is very simple. If you want to search for assassins, you should do so as soon as possible. If you don't, get out of my yard as soon as possible!" Shen Jinyan scolded coldly.
"Miss Shen, watch your words!"
"Words, my choice of words is very appropriate! Ask Mr. Lu one last time, do you search or not?"
Lu Donglin knew that Shen Jinyan was irritating him at this time, but he just couldn't swallow it.
"Search!"
After finishing speaking, Lu Donglin directly stepped into the room, seeing that he was about to go forward again, but Shen Tiancheng stepped forward and directly stopped his progress, "Lord Lu!"
"Master Shen, if you dare to stop me again, don't blame me for imprisoning you for obstructing my errand!"
"Lord Lu is really brave!" Shen Tiancheng gritted his teeth, but his face was livid with anger, but he stepped aside unwillingly, and in his heart, he was planning to read Lu Donglin's book in the morning tomorrow, even if he couldn't really do anything to him , It also made his reputation stinky in the mouths of the courtiers for a while.
Lu Donglin went straight into the room, looked around, but found that there was no place to hide, but he was sure that the assassin had appeared in this room before.
Suddenly, he saw the shattered window again. His first thought was that the assassin might have left, but seeing that there was no trace of blood on the window, he was even more certain in his heart that the assassin had not left.
Seeing Lu Donglin's gaze sweeping in his direction, Shen Jinyan raised his hand and pressed his face, which was vaguely floating on the water surface, into the water without a trace, and then he opened his mouth with a half-smile.
"Master Lu, you have to watch carefully. If you miss any important clues, don't blame me for not reminding you."
Looking at Lu Donglin who was slowly approaching in his direction, Shen Jinyan didn't seem to panic at all.
"Master Lu is walking towards me, does he want to see if I can take a bath?"
"Miss Shen just asked me to come in and find someone, shouldn't you be prepared for this too?"
Only through the shield of the screen, Shen Jinyan saw exactly what the man behind the screen looked like, and her eyes were filled with deep thought. She knew that the man was doubting where she was.
Lu Donglin took two steps forward, seeing that he was about to push the screen to find out, Shen Tiancheng quickly stepped forward and stopped him, "Lord Lu, I know you are the most important person to the emperor, my little girl Although Jinyan's reputation is not very good? But it doesn't mean that anyone can ignore her reputation, so please think twice, Mr. Lu."
"Master Shen, are you threatening me?" Lu Donglin raised his eyebrows and asked, but the anger in his words subconsciously intensified.
Shen Tiancheng smiled coldly, "If Mr. Lu insists on going his own way, don't blame me for turning my face and denying others."
At this moment, Shen Tiancheng's aura of superiority also exuded. Although he didn't want to offend the current emperor, there was a reason for this matter. Besides, no matter how bad Shen Jinyan was, he was also the child of that woman. That woman loved her daughter the most before she was alive. Now Now, in this yard, if he does nothing, his conscience will be condemned.
He didn't want to hide everything he didn't give that woman well after she died. Although he had done it before, once some things were uncovered, he couldn't suppress them anymore.
Lu Donglin was startled by the aura emanating from Shen Tiancheng's body, but it was only for a moment. With a cold snort, he raised one hand slightly, and with his strength, swept Shen Tiancheng aside. In the next second, he directly raised his hand to overthrow him. The screen in front of you.
"Master Lu is staring at the body of a woman who has not left the cabinet so intently, is it too rude?"
Shen Jinyan's voice that sounded like a smile was not a smile, but Lu Donglin still didn't turn around, his gaze was fixed on the wound on Shen Jinyan's left shoulder blade, "Miss Shen, where did this injury come from?"
"I was stabbed by an assassin just now. I wonder if you are satisfied with the answer, Mr. Lu?"
Hearing this, Lu Donglin frowned, stared at Shen Jinyan's wound for a long time, and then said coldly: "Did Miss Shen want to tell me that the assassin came into your room and stabbed you? "
"Master Lu can naturally understand that."
"Sophistry, what I expected was right, Miss Shen, you are the assassin!"
Hearing this, Shen Jinyan couldn't help but frowned, and he understood in his heart that this man wanted to delay time. Although he was very worried that the masked man would be drowned in this way, there was no better way.
"Master Lu said that I am an assassin, but I would like to ask, where did Master Lu come from to say that?"
"At Chenshi, the assassin appeared in the imperial mausoleum, we fought with him, and the assassin was hit by my unique secret medicine, with a strange fragrance on his body, and an arrow in the left shoulder blade, we followed the fragrance and blood all the way to the prime minister's mansion, but just After chasing Miss Shen to your room, the blood stains disappeared in front of the window, but the fragrance is still there, and it is still very strong, and you are the only one in this room, and your left shoulder blade is injured. Isn't this the worst? Good proof?"
"What Master Lu said is very true, but I still have to say, your guess is very reasonable, but the fact is not the case."
"I would like to hear how you, Miss Shen, will blame yourself?"
Looking at Lu Donglin who continued to entangle, Shen Jinyan understood very well that this person would not leave easily, so he straightened his clothes and tugged at the hem of the skirt that was floating on the water, in order to help the one who was still sinking at the bottom of the water. The masked man fought for a chance to change his breath, and then he spoke out to explain the cause and effect.
"My lord Lu, I would like to say that I only left the palace at this hour, and His Royal Highness Xiao personally sent me back on horseback. Not only His Royal Highness Xiao can testify about this matter, but even the soldiers at the palace gate can testify for me. It can be said that I am completely There is not enough time to commit the crime! As for the injury to my left shoulder blade, it was left by the assassin."
"At that time, I was going to sleep, and the assassin ran into my room, put the sword on my neck, and asked me to stop the bleeding and treat the wound. I didn't want to die, so I stopped the bleeding obediently. Halfway through, he suddenly said that he had something to leave, and I said the bleeding had stopped, but the arrow hadn't been drawn yet, so I refused to let him go, and then I heard the noisy voices outside the door, and he stabbed me directly with a sword The position of the left scapula, jumped out the window and left, and this is the reason why I didn’t stay.”

"Jinyan, are you asleep? If you don't speak, will daddy open the door and come in?"
