Chapter 253 Thoughts
Princess Nihuang left and they had a simple meal together. It can be seen that she trusts Shen Qingzhou a lot more.

Shen Qingzhou also recovered from being weak to normal under Nihuang's eyes. Now, there can be some little secrets between the two of them. Princess Nihuang even complained in her heart that he was too scheming and a little prejudiced. She knew that he should no longer exist, but that was his own doing.

Princess Nihuang also told Shen Qingzhou what happened in the palace. Concubine Yue was demoted, the prince was confined for three months, and Emperor Liang was still too lenient.

Prince Jing also testified for Princess Nihuang. Under Mei Changsu's plan, Prince Yu took the blame himself. Otherwise, why would Prince Jing go to Concubine Yue's palace? Where did he get the information from? All of them are contradictory.

Shen Qingzhou could also hear that Princess Nihuang admired Prince Jing very much. Although it was Shen Qingzhou who saved the person, Prince Jing also had half the credit.

When leaving, Princess Nihuang looked at Shen Qingzhou and wanted to say something but remained silent. Shen Qingzhou saw it but didn't care.

He didn't give Nihuang anything again. He had already given her something once and it worked. He only had desire for Princess Nihuang's beauty. Feelings had to be cultivated slowly and didn't exist now.

Of course, he would not force Princess Nihuang. The two of them would inevitably fight. Of the ten places, Baili Qi had already withdrawn, and the remaining nine would have to fight with her. She would definitely not be his opponent, but if she really didn't want to get married, that didn't matter.

Two days later, he had already started handling official business. It was enough to maintain a weak image in the outside world. He didn't want to lie down all day long.

In the past two days, at his suggestion, the Shen family business began to have contact with Xiao Jingli, waiting for the opportunity for them to meet. Xiao Jingli himself often appeared in various entertainment venues, Hongxiuzhao and Miaoyinfang, two famous places in Jinling, where he could often be seen.

In terms of official business, it was mainly the case of Duke Qing. Duke Qing himself had a title and status, so the Xuan Jing Division also stepped in and he also sent people to Binzhou.

Although he banned the Shen family business from doing business in Binzhou, the local Shen family business was not without influence, and many things were easy to find out.

Duke Qing did send people to stop it, but Shen Qingzhou sent people just as a target. After he revoked the business license of the Shen family business in Binzhou, some things that happened in Binzhou on that day had appeared in the Shen family's information database. He sent people to do business with the intention of gathering information.

This was also the strategy he made for himself early on. When he was able to govern the world, these unfair things would become the source of his talent.

He is now waiting for the other party to return to the capital so that he can start to attack Duke Qing. However, there is one strange thing: Princess Nihuang's son-in-law selection meeting, where several of them are going to compete with Princess Nihuang, has not started yet.

Princess Nihuang was very conflicted at the moment. She really didn't want to get married. Even though Shen Qingzhou was her savior, it was not enough.

She kept delaying the son-in-law selection meeting until Xia Dong returned. On the way back, Xia Dong also resolved the assassination attempt sent by Xie Yu and framed Prince Yu. However, Xia Dong knew all the inside story and would have revealed it long ago if Xie Yu had not helped.

Xia Dong also knew about Princess Nihuang's affairs. She was a bystander, so she saw things more clearly. In her opinion, Princess Nihuang was in a situation of choice. Mei Changsu was helping her, and everyone in the capital knew it. Shen Qingzhou admired her and even consumed himself to help her out of trouble with strange means when she was in danger.

She was also very curious about Shen Qingzhou. Her trip to Binzhou was a task given to Xuan Jingsi by Emperor Liang, but she knew that the prefect of Jingzhao also sent people to Binzhou. The difference was that when she came back, there were swords and sabers all the way, while when the other party came back, there were all kinds of heroes leading the way. It was really speechless.

She did know that she was killed by Tianquan Villa. What she was afraid of was not the evidence she had found about Duke Qing's crimes, but the fact that she would reveal that Xie Yu was already a member of the prince's gang.

After returning to Jinling and learning about these things, she wanted to go see Mei Changsu and Shen Zheng. She first looked for Mei Changsu. She could also see that Nihuang suspected that the people who helped her at the beginning were from the Jiangzuo League. A few years ago, Mei Changsu did send people to the southern border to help her. She sent people to track them down and they arrived at the Jiangzuo border.

"You, your name." Fei Liu blocked him. "Why, you won't let me in unless I tell you my name?" Xia Dong came this time because he wanted to fight Fei Liu, a master who could fight against Meng Zhi.

"If you have a name, you are a guest." Fei Liu was stubborn.

"What if I insist on breaking in? Xia Dong also wants to see for myself the master who can fight with Commander Meng." Xia Dong said provocatively.

This was especially true for Fei Liu. Fighting was his favorite thing. Xia Dong made the first move, raising a palm directly towards Fei Liu.

Fei Liu dodged it with a quick move. Xia Dong was full of admiration. He did not hold back and waved his hand, and the internal force wrapped around his arm and went towards Fei Liu's chest.

Fei Liu flashed again. His best feature was speed. However, when fighting with Meng Zhi, it seemed like they were going back and forth. In fact, Meng Zhi was just teasing him and he couldn't bring out his speed.

However, this does not affect the fact that he is at least among the top five masters in the world of Langya Bang.

Xuan Bu Meng Zhi will definitely beat him, and Lin Chen should be able to beat him as well. The rest of the people, one by one, are no match for him. Xia Jiang once beat the third place on the Langya Master List, but was beaten up by Fei Liu.

Of course, it is normal to have masters in secret, but among the characters that appear, he is a top-notch master.

The two men exchanged less than ten moves. Xia Dong used her foot to block Fei Liu's fist, but was knocked back more than a meter by the punch. She couldn't stand steadily. She knew that she was no match for him.

"Fei Liu, stop it. Fei Liu's victory is unfair. Lord Xia is injured." Mei Changsu came forward.

"It's true that he's injured, and it's also true that he's no match for our opponent. I guess this person must be Mr. Su." Everyone knows that he is Mei Changsu, but they just don't mention it and just call him Mr. Su.

"Do you just want to maintain a gentleman's friendship with the princess?" When Xia Dong came into the house, he was also impatient and asked directly about what he was concerned about. The message that Su Zhe was planning to choose a husband for Princess Nihuang had already spread in Jinling, so Mei Changsu naturally said that it was a gentleman's friendship.

However, he also admitted that he admired Nihuang, but he knew that his health was not good and he would not think too much about it.

Xia Dong asked Mei Changsu again why he sent people to help Nihuang solve the Nan Chu battle issue, and Mei Changsu explained it as defending his country.

Xia Dong came over to see because of the rumors, but actually she was worried that her good sister would be too embarrassed to speak up, so she came over to ask about the rules first.

As for what happens next, she just needs to tell Nihuang the information she knows. On the way out, she meets Xie Yu. In response to his temptation, she directly reveals the truth and also says that she will not expose the fact that she was assassinated. The grudges are cleared.

She went to visit Shen Qingzhou again, but he was not there. She didn't feel that he was avoiding her. She knew something. He was basically not in the mansion except when he was in court or sleeping. Even when he was sleeping, he was probably outside the city. She didn't understand what he was planning.
