I'm the villain in the book

Page 255

After finishing the last sentence, he stood up from the white stone.

Wei Changtian turned his head and was about to leave, but Li Wutong suddenly shouted eagerly from behind: "I didn't regard him as, that, that..."

"It's just an analogy, the princess doesn't have to be so serious."

Wei Changtian didn't even turn his head: "And you should tell Mr. Shen this sentence."

"..."

At the end of the courtyard path with flickering lights, the lonely figure quickly merged into the night.

Li Wutong stared blankly at the direction in which Wei Changtian disappeared, his hands tightly clutching the corners of his clothes, and he didn't move for a long time.

The Wei Changtian in her impression was that dandy who dared to kill the prime minister of his country at the slightest disagreement, a despicable villain who would threaten to cut off his clothes in front of tens of thousands of soldiers, or who would say behind his back, "She will cry and cry!" A super invincible narcissist who wants to marry, but I won't marry either".

Therefore, Li Wutong didn't know why Wei Changtian had to speak for Shen Shulin just now, and he didn't know why Wei Changtian cared so much about this "little matter", so much that he even waited here specially for him.

Could it be that I really did something wrong...

Under the moonlight, Li Wutong sat silently on the white stone that Wei Changtian had just sat on, thinking over and over every word the latter said.

At this moment, Wei Changtian also stopped at a corner of the courtyard, staring at the pool of water in front of him in a daze.

The water surface with a radius of only a few feet is calm and waveless, reflecting the eaves and door couplets of several buildings not far away like a bright mirror.

In all fairness, I shouldn't bother with such trivial matters.

but......

A memory from the previous life came to mind, and then turned into a self-mockery at the corner of his mouth.

Forget it, who hasn't been a bit stupid in the past?

......

......

Early the next morning.

After having breakfast in the palace, he should continue on his way to Fengyuan according to the plan.

Wang Qixing sent Wei Changtian and Li Wutong to the carriage all the way, and watched the black carriage drift away until it disappeared into the end of his field of vision before letting out a long sigh of relief.

The Liu family next to him also looked away, and asked in a low voice, "Master, you said that Her Royal Highness and Mr. Wei..."

"To shut up!"

Wang Qixing stared and interrupted: "Your Highness, is it something we can talk about?!"

"Yes, yes, I won't say anything!"

Liu Shi curled her lips and stopped talking, while Wang Qixing glanced at the road dust rising in the distance again, and sighed softly as if talking to himself.

"Oh, I hope not..."

......

A quarter of an hour later.

No one spoke in the bumpy carriage.

Wei Changtian was still resting his eyes with his eyes closed, while Li Wutong was watching him secretly, he opened his mouth slightly a few times, but closed it tightly again with quite a struggle.

She hesitated for a long time, and finally made up her mind, leaned forward and opened half of the curtain, and said to the driver:

"Go to the Shen Mansion first."

"Yes, Your Royal Highness!"

"..."

The two conversations were very short, and when Li Wutong sat down again, he found that Wei Changtian had opened his eyes and was looking at him calmly.

"You, what do you see me doing?!"

Li Wutong asked a stern question, but he didn't wait for an answer.

Wei Changtian calmly asked back:

"Princess, are you going to see Mr. Shen?"

"Yes, so what?!"

"Not much, I just feel..."

Wei Changtian nodded with a half-smile: "If you can figure it out, it's not hopeless."

"Humph!"

Li Wutong snorted, turned his head and stopped talking, but his mood was very complicated.

Being teased by Wei Changtian again, she would definitely be furious before.

And this time...although I was very angry, but I felt inexplicable and a little happy after being praised. What happened? !

There was a hint of a smile unconsciously at the corner of his mouth, but Wei Changtian caught him without thinking about it.

"Princess, what are you laughing at?"

"I!"

Li Wutong covered his face with his sleeves, his big exposed eyes were full of shame and indignation.

OMG!

How could there be such an annoying man in the world!

Chapter 292 The origin of good dreams is the easiest to wake up

After half an hour.

The carriage slowly stopped at the gate of a mansion, Li Wutong entered the mansion accompanied by several guards, and walked out after about two quarters of an hour.

Looking at Li Wutong who was sitting across from him again, Wei Changtian didn't ask what she had said to Shen Shulin, but just stretched himself, and then ordered Youjia to take out the cards to fight the devil.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa~"

You Jia quickly shuffled the cards, but Wei Changtian didn't rush to draw them.

He raised his head and glanced at Li Wutong who was staring blankly at the tip of his shoe, and suddenly asked:

"Do you want to play cards?"

"what?"

Li Wutong glanced left and right as if he didn't react, and then weakly pointed to his nose and asked:

"You, are you asking me?"

"Yes."

Wei Changtian smiled and asked again: "Princess, do you want to play cards?"

"I, I won't..."

"It's okay, I'll teach you."

"Well......"

Li Wutong moved his body to the side of the small table, and listened seriously to Wei Changtian explaining the basic rules of fighting the devil.

It wasn't a very complicated game in the first place, so she quickly understood how to play it.

The three played a few rounds, and Li Wutong gradually became familiar with the tricks, but his interest was still not very high.

"One eight."

Throwing a piece of cardboard on the table, Wei Changtian asked casually, "Princess, are you worried about Mr. Shen?"

"what?"

Li Wutong immediately forgot to play the card, and nodded slightly after a long while.

"Yes, I'm afraid he won't think about it, and I'm afraid he will hold grudges against me..."

"Well, it's not unreasonable."

Wei Changtian posted another top ten and best nine: "After all, since ancient times, there is no room for hatred."

Passionate since ancient times, free to hate......

Hearing this sentence, Li Wutong was stunned for a moment, and even Youjia's expression became very complicated for a while.

The two women were silent, only Wei Changtian asked with a smile while turning a blind eye:

"I'm out to ten, do you want it?"

"Don't let me out! A pair of four!"

"Do you want this time?"

"..."

The two women looked at each other, suppressing the chaotic thoughts in each other's hearts, and reluctantly turned their eyes back to the cards in their hands.

"I offer a pair of sixes."

As Li Wutong said, he put down a six and a seven in a daze.

"You made the wrong card."

Wei Changtian picked up the piece of Qi and stuffed it back into Li Wutong's hand, and said casually:

"Passionate love has been empty of hatred since ancient times, and good dreams are the easiest to wake up from."

"Don't worry, Mr. Shen will wake up."

"..."

......

Shenfu.

The spacious study room is filled with the smell of paper and ink. Behind the huanghuali book case are two bookshelves, which are full of collections of classics and history, and commentary handouts of scholars of various dynasties.

In stark contrast to this, the volumes placed on the book case are all strange books on practice such as "Seven Signs of Yunji" and "Enlightenment", or gossip about anecdotes about green forests.

"..."

Sitting blankly on the wooden chair, Shen Shulin has been in this posture for an unknown amount of time, and the few words Li Wutong himself said are still being repeated in his mind.

"Mr. Shen, I will never marry a literati, and I don't want you to abandon literature and pursue martial arts for me..."

"You are a scholar and you like to read, so you should read on and assist your father in governing the country in the court..."

"What happened last night...I'm sorry..."

"I believe that in the future you will find a woman who is sincere to you..."

"I'm leaving, and there will be no future..."

"..."

"Whoa~"

A gust of wind came in through the window, flipping a copy of "The History of Wulin Chaos" on the table.

Most ordinary people read such a book of unofficial history that records the affairs of Dafeng Green Forest casually as a pastime, but Shen Shulin has carefully marked each page and each paragraph, which shows that he is serious when reading.

He stretched out his hand and lightly pressed the pages of the book that were blown by the wind, and his eyes stayed on the lines of small characters that he was not interested in, until the whole book was folded together.

Shen Shulin stood up suddenly, stacked the "miscellaneous books" on the desk that had nothing to do with governing the country into a pile, and put them in the corner of the study in his arms.

Then, without saying a word, he took out a copy of "Tong Jian Ji Lan" from the bookshelf, sat down in front of the desk again, and slowly flipped through the pages one by one.

Outside the window, the morning sun is just right, and the breeze is warm.

In fact, at this time, Shen Shulin still had a trace of unwillingness and despair in his heart, and he didn't know where his future was.

But when he surpassed the ancestors of the Shen family a few years later and came back to visit his relatives as the prime minister, he came to this study again, recalling today's scene...

At that time, he might also be like Wei Changtian yesterday, laughing it off, turning this past into a self-deprecating smile.
