C59 (2/2)
Yesterday, he was still at's side, he had ridden over, and Gu Yicheng could not be ahead of him, and the person in the carriage could not be Gu Yicheng.
That cold and detached face of hers that was distant from him surfaced in Song Shujin's mind.
Yun Qianliang!
She had just left the capital at the right time, and the timing was right after Tianhui Emperor had sent him there to search for personal taxes.
Gu Yicheng sent her to the Tan Yue City to interfere with the matter of the Tan Yue City's army?
Was Yun Qianliang really that capable?
”Send people to investigate the purpose of Yun Qianliang's visit.” Song Shujin instructed.
”Look at the direction the carriage is heading towards, it just so happens to be in the same direction as the inn we are staying at.” Lu Zhe said.
Song Shujin frowned his cold brows, feeling annoyed. He lost all will to read the situation and returned to the tavern.
There were already guards surrounding the Pure Wind House. In an instant, the inn became a sitting cage, with people monitoring the entrance and exit of the inn.
Song Shujin secretly checked secretly, the Tianhui Emperor obviously did not want to reveal his identity, once he found out the evidence, he would have to return to the capital, and at that time, he would send someone to deal with the matter of officials secretly collecting taxes, and if people found out his identity, the evidence would be insufficient, and the Tianhui Emperor would have a reason to punish him, how could he let Yun Qianliang do anything bad?
Song Shujin walked into the tavern full of anger, his whole body was cold and no one dared to approach him.
He walked upstairs. The tavern was filled with Gu Xiangfu bodyguards defending against all odds, preventing any bad people from taking advantage of the situation. The atmosphere was even bigger than a palace lady going out to play.
In front of Song Shujin's room, he coincidentally met Gu Shisan exiting the room, and the room happened to be right next to his. This coincidental change made him even more enraged, and made him wish he could just directly order Yun Qianliang to be chased away.
Gu Shisan noticed the person who arrived, a look of surprise flashed past his eyes, and he immediately nodded his head at his opponent.
Song Shujin snorted, his footsteps paused as he brushed past them, ”Tell your master to take the people outside away.”
”I am truly sorry, but my master's safety is more important, and the guards cannot leave.” Gu Shisan rejected him righteously.
He had received the news only at the teahouse. Jin Wang had arrived at Tan Yue City, and had stayed at the Fresh Breeze Inn, if one really said that it was not fate, he felt that it was done intentionally. However, when Master decided to stay in this inn, Jin Wang was still in the future.
”This is an order.” Song Shujin used his status to pressure others.
Gu Shisan was not an easy target, ”This customer, what identity does he have to give me orders?”
”You …” Just as Lu Zhe wanted to teach him a lesson, he was stopped by a glare from Song Shujin.
”Is this the rule of your Gu Xiangfu?” Song Shujin's eyes were cold and harsh, his gaze aimed straight at Gu Shisan.
”This customer is really funny.” The door of the guest room opened, and Yun Qianliang gracefully stepped out, her eyes calmly looking at the angry man, his words sharp, ”How about my Gu Xiangfu's rules, it's not a place for an outsider to discipline me.”
”Dismissed.” Song Shujin's words were filled with orders.
Yun Qianliang laughed, looking straight into the eyes, she looked at the guards in the inn, and when he retracted his gaze, the curve of his lips became deeper.
”Even normal people would know that they shouldn't be provoked when they see this. This guest has a strange temper. Not only did he attack me, but he even gave me an order after knowing that I was the Left Premier's wife. I'm getting curious about the identity of this young master.” Yun Qianliang intentionally picked up the pot, ”I am in the backyard, and do not know of the powerful people in the imperial court, but to be able to be above my husband, I am afraid he is only a noble in the palace, could it be that Young Noble is …”
The rest of the story was unspoken, but her feigned panic was enough to make anyone suspicious of his identity.
Although Yun Qianliang appeared to be in fear, her eyes were smiling.
”I can't be considered a noble person, but this young lady's ostentatious manner prevented me from returning to my room.” Song Shujin suppressed his anger and calmed himself down to answer, the arrogance of the young masters increased a bit, ”I spent money, so I will enjoy what I deserve.”
Song Shujin walked past the guards and into the room next door.
The door next door slammed shut, and the smile on Yun Qianliang's face immediately disappeared.
It was fine if they were in the same inn, but he was even staying next to her. What kind of bullshit fate was this?
”Send people inside. Arrange two more people to stand guard tonight.” Yun Qianliang withdrew her arrogant and willful attitude and made some arrangements for the guards, ”After nightfall, arrange two people to patrol outside the window, do not be careless.”
The other party had been staring at her since she entered the city. If Song Shujin's identity was not concealed, the other party's plans to deal with him would implicate her in danger, causing her to be cautious.
”Madam, please be at ease. After nightfall, your subordinate and the fourteenth will take turns keeping watch.” Gu Shisan had already made the proper arrangements.
Yun Qianliang nodded and went back to his room. She glanced at the neighboring room with disdain and sincerely did not care about this strange fate.
Even though she came here for Song Shujin, but she did not seek for such a deep fate. Since she gave it to him just like that, how could she be reasonable?
