The Sickly Scion's Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

424 Following the Wind (1)

When the carriage was about to reach the city gate, they saw a team parked there from afar. At the front of the team were a few luxurious carriages, and both sides of the road were filled with commoners. Many officials blocked the commoners from approaching.

Shen Yijia lowered the curtain.

It seemed that they could only enter after that team entered the city.

Mo Yuan stopped the carriage by the side. Without needing them to ask, they heard the commoners discussing.

!!

“As expected of the Xuanyuan Kingdom. Look, that carriage is filled with gems.”

“I heard that not only is the emperor’s favorite Third Prince here, but even Lord Jing’an is here.”

Who was Lord Jing’an? He was the younger brother of the emperor of the Xuanyuan Kingdom.

The previous emperor of the Xuanyuan Kingdom died suddenly. The emperor was only 15 or 16 years old when he took over.

Because he was young, the imperial court of the Xuanyuan Kingdom had been controlled by cunning officials for a long time. The emperor was almost overthrown.

This situation lasted for five to six years before it was turned around by the two brothers. Later on, the Emperor of Xuanyuan Kingdom conferred the title of Lord on his brother, who was on par with the Emperor.

Although one had rarely heard of Lord Jing’an’s deeds in the past few years, it did not affect his status in the Xuanyuan Kingdom.

Shen Yijia did not take it to heart. On the other hand, Mo Yuan’s eyes moved when she heard the words “King Jing’an”, but she quickly calmed down.

After waiting for about 15 minutes, the diplomatic mission team was welcomed in. Shen Yijia also heard people discussing that the emperor had sent Lord Xian, the second prince, to receive them.

Lord Xian? Shen Yijia frowned. It took her a long time to remember that the Second Prince, Shangguan Yu, was also called Lord Xian.

After the diplomatic mission entered, the officials finally let them in. The commoners entered the city one after another.

After such a long time, Shen Yijia calmed down.

What did it have to do with her whether Ji Yunxi was from the Valley of Heavenly Secrets?

The original host was born to Shen Pingxiu and Madam Wang. These two people were not related to the Valley of Heavenly Secrets.

It was even more impossible that the original host was not born to Madam Wang. In the Shen family, Madam Wang did not have the ability to deceive the world.

As for herself, he was not from this world at all. After thinking this through, Shen Yijia heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she blamed herself for being too impatient.

Because there were already many people in front, their carriage did not move.

Unexpectedly, not long after, there was a commotion in front of them. The rapid sound of hooves was getting closer and closer.

Shen Yijia curiously lifted the curtain and saw the person in the lead.

Then her eyes were fixed on that person and she could no longer see anyone else.

That person was sitting on a horse. He was wearing a black veil hat and a purple python robe. There was a long sword at his waist, and his handsome face was a little cold.

Shen Yijia did not know how to describe the person in front of her. She had to say that he was extremely handsome.

“How can my beautiful husband be so handsome?” she thought.

Shen Yijia’s eyes lit up. Such a handsome man was hers!

Song Jingchen had been in office for two days and had to wake up before dawn every day. This was the first time Shen Yijia had seen him in an official’s uniform.

Perhaps because her gaze was too intense, the people who were looking straight ahead, as if they were not interested in anything, suddenly looked over.

Shen Yijia blew him a kiss.

Then she saw the man stiffen. The horse under him neighed and raised its front hooves to stop directly beside her carriage.

As soon as he stopped, the people behind him naturally stopped.

Shen Yijia blinked and noticed Song Jingchen’s slightly red earlobes. She smiled sweetly at him. “Hubby.”

The voice was as soft as honey.

Everyone in the capital knew that the Song family had undergone a huge change on the day of his marriage.

In other words, everyone knew that he was married. However, because the original host was too unnoticeable in the past, very few people knew what she looked like.

Now that they saw such a fairy-like beauty, they couldn’t help but look at Song Jingchen enviously.

Song Jingchen pursed his lips and coughed lightly. “Why did you leave the city today?”

Oh my, he was quite serious.

Shen Yijia blinked and revealed the box containing the fish in the carriage to him. “I went to catch fish.”

The corners of the mouths of the people behind Song Jingchen twitched. The fish were so fat. They knew she must have gone to the fish pond to catch them.

“Where are you going?” Shen Yijia asked again.

Song Jingchen glanced at her, making Shen Yijia’s heart skip a beat. Then, he said, “Father-in-law was kidnapped by some evil people. I happened to hear about this, so I brought my men out of the city to look for him.”

When Shen Pingxiu’s mistress ran to the capital to report to the authorities, Song Jingchen happened to go there to look at the case file.
