Chapter 278 Not the Destined Person
Chapter 278 Not the Destined Person
"What, what's wrong?" He looked so flustered. Was there something wrong in the letter?
Shen Mingjue glanced at his brother and calmed down. How could he be so anxious and confused just because Gu Changfeng came to him injured?
Yes, Gu Changfeng and Wen Heng might have their own reasons for getting married, so couldn't he tell him about it? They were already... already married, they were a family, why did they have to hide it from him?
Now that things have come to this, is it necessary for me to go look for him again?
Seeing the worried expressions of Shen Mingyuan and Lou Xu, he suddenly came to his senses.
The Shen family left the capital to stay away from the Gu family. So what if it was a misunderstanding? The imperial decree could not be violated. There was no possibility for him and Gu Changfeng to be together.
It was Gu Changfeng who personally asked for permission to destroy both of them.
Shen Mingjue took his brother's hand and wrote a few words for him to see.
[The prince was injured and went to Xinzhou. Master Wen asked me to send someone to send him back.]
Only then did Shen Mingyuan's expression look better.
"Don't worry, we will arrive in Xinzhou tomorrow. If we meet the prince, we will send someone to send him back. If you don't want to see him, then don't meet him."
Shen Mingjue nodded and wrote: [The prince met Kenasu on the way here, and his subordinates have already died. We might as well leave early, lest the prince's condition worsens and the emperor and Minister Wen blame him. ]
Shen Mingyuan said: "Okay, let's pack up and send someone to find out if anyone has been to the new general's mansion recently. It seems that the prince may have arrived."
Lou Xu added a few servants to explore the way. After they packed up, they set out that night and would reach Xinzhou by dawn at the latest.
"Fortunately, Minister Wen is a sensible man. Even the farewell letter was not too embarrassing. You don't know how I looked when I first saw my brother. I thought he had written something unpleasant... It seems I thought too much." Shen Mingyuan leaned lightly on Lou Xu's shoulder, counting his hair from time to time.
Lou Xu gently held his dishonest hand and said, "Only a few of us know what happened on the grassland. How did Minister Wen know about it? General Xue and his son are both tight-lipped people, so this may not be a farewell letter, but perhaps just a letter asking for help."
"You are right, but why did the prince go to Xinzhou? He clearly injured my brother so badly a few days ago. Could it be that on the wedding night he suddenly realized that the person he loved was not Minister Wen, so he came here to seek true love? This is too ridiculous."
Lou Xu was silent for a while, "Do you think he really has some difficulties?"
"You have to marry someone, or something serious will happen if you don't?"
Shen Mingyuan narrowed his eyes and looked at him.
"Then after getting married, he found out that he had not escaped fate, and his destined partner was not Minister Wen. Or maybe when he got married, he thought about his boring life after marriage, and decided to challenge fate and pursue true love."
Shen Mingyuan knocked Lou Xu's head hard.
"Ouch!"
"What do you mean by destiny? I see you've been too idle lately, reading too many picture books, right?"
Lou Xu felt a little aggrieved: "From afar..."
"Let me ask you, if I am not your destined one, what will you do?"
It has been a long time since I last saw Shen Mingyuan like this. Lou Xu felt itchy inside, as if he was being tickled by hundreds of little bugs.
"Even if it's not the case, I won't marry anyone else. I'd rather be single for the rest of my life." Then I'll put your portrait in every corner of the room, and when you're able to accept me, I'll capture you and lock you up in my room.
"Hmph, that's more like it." Shen Mingyuan curled his lips and leaned over to kiss him, "So the prince doesn't like my little Shen that much at all. Even if he's hurt, it's not worth forgiving, unless..."
"Unless what?" Lou Xu's voice was obviously hoarse, and the evil desire in his heart could hardly be suppressed.
They have to take care of their younger brother these days and they haven't had any time alone for a long time.
"Unless he disobeys the order and divorces Wen Heng. But even if he does that, he will be close to death, right?" Shen Mingyuan seemed to have just realized that something was wrong with Lou Xu, and reached out to press on his private parts.
Sure enough, a hoarse moan from Lou Xu was heard.
"What are you thinking about? We are in a carriage."
"Far away."
Shen Mingyuan was slightly stunned. "I know you are thinking about me. I am asking, why are you thinking about me?"
Lou Xu suddenly hugged him tightly in his arms, and soon the whole carriage began to sway slightly.
