Women dressed as men: powerful officials

Chapter 187 Be a friend

"What do you want to do with him?" Shen Yichuan didn't understand.

"help."

"What's the deal?"

"The Song family." Xu Yuan's voice was a little lower. "As long as the Song family is here, I can't do my job with peace of mind. Naturally, I have to deal with the Song family first."

Hearing Xu Yuan's words, Shen Yichuan obviously didn't believe it, "I think you are going after the Imperial Censor Wei Chenyi."

Xu Yuan’s temper isn’t the best, but it’s definitely not bad either.

The Song family tortured and humiliated her several times, but Xu Yuan never mentioned revenge. That was because she didn't care about the Song family at all.

The Song family has nothing to do with her grudges.

But Wei Chen was different.

The Xu family was exiled to Hanzhou, and someone hired masters from Zhuifeng Hall to hunt them down. The person who gave the order was Wei Chenyi.

It can be said that the extermination of the Xu family was absolutely related to Wei Chenyi.

Hearing Shen Yichuan's confident words, Xu Yuan couldn't help but sigh, "I really can't hide anything from you."

"You are a little too brave."

"It's just a gamble. The worst-case scenario won't be that bad."

Xu Yuan said, and suddenly asked: "Is there any news from the Song family recently? How about Song Xiujing's marriage?"

Shen Yichuan shook his head, "I don't know."

"Why doesn't the third prince marry Song Xiujing?" Xu Yuan didn't understand.

By marrying Song Xiujing, you will have the entire Geshu as your backing.

Not only that, it would be more convenient to take military power by doing so.

and……

It was obvious that the person Bei Yao married in his previous life was Song Xiujing. What was the difference?

Xu Yuan thought hard and pondered, but still couldn't come to a conclusion.

Shen Yichuan said: "I am not him, I don't know what he is thinking, maybe he has other plans."

Xuyuan nodded: "It's possible."

It is also possible that everything in front of him is just a show he put on.

He will eventually marry Song Xiujing.

The two of them are a true match made in heaven.

"Speaking of which, Song Xiujing will also go to the snow viewing banquet. Are you sure you don't want to go?"

Xu Yuan shook his head, "Where there are many people, there are many disputes."

"Xie Xiaocheng was also invited."

Xu Yuan was a little surprised. "Hasn't Xie Xiaocheng returned to Beijing yet? How did you receive the post?"

"The Snow Viewing Banquet will be held in five days, and Xie Xiaocheng will return to Beijing in three days." Shen Yichuan handed his invitation to Xu Yuan and said again: "Believe me, you will regret it if you don't go."

"Then..." Xu Yuan hesitated for a moment, but finally accepted it, "I'll go."

"That's right, there's nothing else, I'm leaving first."

Xu Yuan sent Shen Yichuan back, then carefully put away the invitation to the snow-viewing banquet, and went to take care of Wu Shiming.

Wu Shiming's illness was not serious, but he had a fever and felt drowsy.

The snow was getting heavier day by day, and the news of Xie Xiaocheng's return to Beijing gradually spread.

In less than two days, everyone knew that General Xie Xiaocheng, who had pacified the northern border, was returning to Beijing.

Previously, because of the Crown Princess incident, many aristocratic families had severed ties with the Xie family. But now, hearing that Xie Xiaocheng had returned to Beijing, they hurried over to make friends with him.

Xuyuan doesn't care much about these.

She was only thinking about the snow viewing banquet and had no idea what Shen Yichuan was talking about.

The day before Xie Xiaocheng returned, the streets were already full of people talking about this great general, and a rare guest also came to the courtyard where he made a wish.

Qi Shengxin.

Xu Yuan calculated that he hadn't seen Qi Shengxin for nearly half a month.

He was the same as always, his eyes were a little cold, but his words were always warm.

Once they come, they are guests. After making a wish, invite them in and light a fire to make tea.

After Wu Shiming felt better, he went back to work in the shop.

This time, before Xu Yuan could speak, Qi Shengxin took the lead and said, "I was busy some time ago and didn't have time to see you. How have you been recently?"

"Not bad."

"My father has negotiated with Wenhua Palace. You can take the test again at the beginning of next year when Wenhua Palace opens for school."

The Cultural Palace has only one assessment, at the end of the year.

If you pass, you will go to school at the beginning of the year with the previous students of Wenhua Palace.

In the hundred years of Tianqi, there has never been a precedent of one person taking two assessments.

Afraid that Xu Yuan didn't understand, Qi Shengxin explained: "Your talent is obvious to all, and the emperor couldn't bear to see your talent buried in the dust, so he prepared to retake the exam."

Xu Yuan summarized it all and said, "That is to say, I still have a chance to enter Wenhua Palace."

"That's right." Qi Shengxin nodded.

"So what am I going to do?"

"You don't need to do anything? We continue with the previous conditions."

"Which condition?"

"Marry my sister." Qi Shengxin paused and said, "Of course, I entered Wenhua Palace to repay you for saving Zhu'er. You were targeted and missed the opportunity because of me, so letting you take the assessment again is what the Qi family should do. What I want to tell you is that by marrying my sister, you can get more benefits than just this little bit."

After hearing Qi Shengxin's words, Xu Yuan thought about it carefully for a long time before he understood what was going on.

She comes from Sishui County.

Xie Xiaocheng was also a garrison troop in Sishui County.

Moreover, she knew Xie Xiaocheng.

Therefore, even though she had previously helped the prime minister to delay Xie Xiaocheng from returning to Beijing, in the eyes of the Qi family, she and Xie Xiaocheng still had an inseparable relationship.

Upon hearing that Xie Xiaocheng had returned to Beijing, the Qi family immediately changed their attitude.

If her guess was correct, after Qi Shengxin left, there would be other people coming.

Just because Xie Xiaocheng returned to Beijing.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan said, "Master Qi, General Xie and I are not familiar with each other, you don't have to do this."

If you refuse something once, you will never refuse it a second time.

She knew that Qi Shengxin understood.

Qi Shengxin said, the smile in his eyes faded a little, but he didn't force it, and said: "It's not because of Xie Xiaocheng, but because I want to make friends with you."

Xu Yuan didn't respond, so Qi Shengxin slowly said, "After I went back that day, I thought about your words for a long time, and then I realized that I really shouldn't have regarded Shen Yichuan as an opponent. There is more to him in my life. I should regard myself as an opponent and surpass myself again and again."

Xu Yuan didn't understand what the relationship was between her, Shen Yichuan, and Qi Shengxin.

According to what Qi Shengxin said, he has let it go, so the person he should be looking for is Shen Yichuan. Why is he looking for her?

Xuyuan hesitated for a moment and asked, "So, your conclusion is..."

"A good teacher and a helpful friend are indispensable to each other. If it weren't for you, I would have lived in obsession all my life, in constant fear. It was your words that woke me up, so I want to make you my friend."

Qi Shengxin said, holding up the teacup and asked, "Are you willing?"

"I am just a country bumpkin from a small town. I cannot be Mr. Qi's friend."

Xu Yuan picked up the teacup and added: "I just hope we won't be enemies in the future."

A hint of disappointment flashed across Qi Shengxin's eyes, but after a moment, he smiled and said, "Okay."

At least, they won't be enemies.

Because the enemy of wishing is too terrible.
