Chapter 13 The fate cup

Shen Jingyuan was surprised: "Isn't the first person hiding in the world? Why did he come down?"

Laiqian glanced at Shen Jingyuan: "If you ask me, I can't guess the order issued by Lord Tiandao, but I seem to be looking for something."

"What are you looking for?"

Laiqian gritted his teeth: "Don't ask, don't ask! Why are you such a bitch? Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with us. We can just finish our own things. Come and see if there is any change in the destiny cup?"

Shen Jingyuan stopped asking, glanced at the maids serving around him, and said, "You go and wait outside, I want to be alone for a while."

The maids quickly bowed their heads and said, "Yes, Miss."

When Shen Jingyuan saw that the maids had finished walking, he turned his palms in front of his face, and an ancient lamp appeared in the void. There were mysterious and complex runes carved on the upper and lower parts of the ancient lamp, and the lamp was shaped like an epiphyllum, blooming in the golden light. , Shen Jingyuan stretched out his head and took a look, and sure enough, half a wick grew out of the lamp.

"When the candle of destiny is lit, it will be the day that Zhao Ling comes through, and you can leave this world at that time."

Shen Jingyuan gave up his life and soaked in the bathtub: "The first day of the year is almost here."

Lai Qian laughed and said, "Just wait and wait until you die."

Shen Jingyuan frowned and complained: "It would be great if we could speed up the time."

When she returned to the Zhao family, everyone in the family held her in their hands like a treasure and protected her very closely.

Red leaves and green radish were waiting beside her. In addition, there were five wives, twenty maids, twenty boys, and fifty guards.

In total, there were more than a hundred people.

Being powerful is such a good thing. If you think about how much a family can earn in total if you have so many slaves around one person, it is not impossible for someone to cause trouble and accuse you of raising a private soldier.

But Qin Huairong was the only beloved daughter of the general who protected the country. She used to be accompanied by three thousand personal guards.

This was something that both the emperor and his ministers tacitly approved of.

Because the general protecting the country fought on the battlefield throughout his life and defended countless cities and people, four of Qin Huairong's seven brothers died in battle during the Desheng period. After Emperor Yun Min ascended the throne, two more died in the three years of Changhe. Today There is only one left, and he has a broken arm.

Allowing a thousand guards to be raised privately was a gift from heaven under the blood and bones, and no courtier raised any objections.

Because the world owes the Qin family such honor.

It has been a few days since Shen Jingyuan returned to the Zhao family, and her relationship with Zhao Yong and Qin Huairong has become harmonious during this period.

At first, because of her amnesia, Zhao and Yong were heartbroken. Within a day, they invited many famous doctors to diagnose Shen Jingyuan. They looked, heard, heard, asked and took her pulse. Finally, it was diagnosed that she had suffered a brain injury and bruises in her skull while fleeing. After losing his past memories, it was discovered that the toxins in Shen Jingyuan's body had been inexplicably resolved and cleared.

To sum up, it was a blessing in disguise. Although Shen Jingyuan lost his memory, he regained his consciousness and was no longer ignorant. Zhao Yong and his wife cried with joy on the spot. People in the whole room knelt down and said that Shen Jingyuan was blessed with great fortune.

Because on the day she returned home, Shen Jingyuan held the linen quilt tightly in her arms and refused to let go. Qin Huairong felt heartbroken when she saw it. After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, she sent everything good to Shen Jingyuan, almost day and night. Guarding her, for fear of losing her again, he led Mrs. Qin around Shen Jingyuan every day, for fear that she might feel a little uncomfortable.

Although there are too many people around, there is still one good thing, and that is the food.

The cooks of the Zhao family are really good at cooking. They can serve delicious dishes from all over the world. Dozens of dishes are placed on the table. She holds the jade chopsticks and doesn't know where to start.

Shen Jingyuan had just finished several delicacies today. She looked down at her bulging belly and smiled happily: "The nightmare of mushy vegetables is finally over."

The glazed gauze skirt was valuable, but there were a few drops of oil stains on the chest.

Hongye was steady and saw that the corners of Shen Jingyuan's mouth were dirty. He took out a brocade handkerchief from his sleeve and carefully wiped it with a corner of Shen Jingyuan's mouth.

Shen Jingyuan thought that he had not seen Li Shang since he came back, so he raised his head and asked, "Where did my father arrange for this person to go? Hongye, why don't you let me see him?"

Hong Ye took back the brocade handkerchief and was hesitant to speak. Seeing her hesitation, Luluo on the side approached Shen Jingyuan and whispered: "Miss, he is the foreigner. You are the only daughter of the Prime Minister's Palace, and the highest-status noblewoman in Kyoto besides the princess." Ah, how could your lord and madam allow you to come into contact with that kind of people?"

Luluo looked embarrassed: "How can we girls from the Dayun Dynasty have secret meetings with other men before we get married?"

Hong Ye then said: "Miss, don't worry, my lord will handle it well and won't treat Mr. Li badly."

Why don't you treat me unfairly? Of course I gave him a thousand taels of gold as a gift to repay his kindness.

The east wing of the outer courtyard.

Li Shang opened the door and looked at Butler Zhao standing in front of him: "What do you mean?"

Housekeeper Zhao is the father of Red Leaf and Green Luo. He was once the son of a servant of a criminal minister. He passed through numerous families, and was finally bought and reused by Zhao Yong. He followed Zhao Yong for decades and was loyal, and was later given the family's surname.

Zhao Fu smiled and turned sideways, revealing what the servants were holding: "Master Li, my young lady lost her daughter in March and April, and was born crazy. If it weren't for you, maybe the Prime Minister's Mansion has not found the person yet. You and Miss Yu are here." Our whole government is kind, and this daughter of gold is given to you by the Prime Minister's personal order. I hope you can accept it."

The red silk cloth was piled with dazzling gold, which was indeed a huge wealth that he could not resist.

At this time, Zhao Fu waved his hand and summoned a servant to come forward: "Madam heard about what happened along the way from the young lady. I heard that you had an angelica. When the young lady was seriously ill from cold, she generously donated all her money to make medicine. Madam is grateful. , I found this century-old angelica plant from Yunnan, hoping to repay your loss."

Li Shang stared at the angelica in the boy's hand and then at the neatly stacked gold: "I'll accept the angelica. As for the thousand taels of gold, it's not necessary."

A trace of surprise flashed in Zhao Fu's eyes. He was right in judging people. The person in front of him should be a self-centered and profit-oriented person. It was really surprising to reject this thousand gold.

It seems that he is still young and has some arrogance in his bones.

He didn't want to accept him, but he had to give it to him. Zhao Fu smiled and continued: "This is the Prime Minister's personal order. Master, if you don't accept slaves, it will be difficult for you to do business."

After saying this, the boys entered Li Shang's room with their plates in hand and their heads lowered. The group of people placed various large and small things on the table and then respectfully left.

Zhao Fu continued: "Master Li, it has been ten days since you arrived at the mansion. I know that you have had a fateful relationship with our young lady, but after all, there are differences between men and women. You are fifteen this year and young lady is twelve, and you are no longer a little baby. At this age, the Prime Minister's Office will repay your favor for bringing the young lady to Kyoto. If you have any requests in the future, feel free to ask for it, but now for the sake of the young lady's reputation, I hope you can understand."
