I Wish to Ride the Wind - Chapter 31
When the eldest princess heard the matchmaker say this, she said unexpectedly, “This Shen family has a lot of backbone, I misunderstood them.” Then she turned to Xie Chengfeng, “That’s the case…”
She wanted to say, “If that’s the case, then there’s nothing else I can do,” but looking at her son’s thin face and drooping eyebrows, although he looked pale, she knew her son, and he must be very sad at this moment. So the eldest princess changed her head, “Then let’s take a look.”
The eldest princess was afraid that her son would run around again. After all, he was just waking up from a serious illness, and there were people outside who wanted to harm him, so she ordered people to watch Xie Chengfeng closely. Xie Chengfeng is quite calm and recuperates obediently, which makes the eldest princess a little surprised and relieved. Unexpectedly, he only stayed in peace for two days, and on the third day he knocked out the people around him and slipped away.
The eldest princess can understand: he is waiting to recover his strength!

Shen Chukuai was having lunch when he heard the door calling from outside, put down the mutton buns, wiped his mouth and went out to open the door. There was a handsome and suave young man standing outside the door. Shen Zhukuai was sure that he didn’t know him. He knew that he was extraordinary by looking at his clothes, and he didn’t think he could recognize him. Therefore, Shen Jukuai just thought that he had mistaken the door, and did not invite him in at all. He just held the edge of the door and asked, “Who is the distinguished guest looking for?”
“I’m looking for Shen… Sanniang.”
“Ah?” Shen Zhukuai thought of the previous assassination incident, his eyes became vigilant, “How do you know Sanniang?”
“She has saved my life. I am Xie Chengfeng, the son of the eldest princess. I was injured by falling from a horse and was in a coma for many days. Shen Sanniang replaced my life with a parrot, and this made me awake.” Xie Chengfeng said in a few words. explained.
Although Shen Zhukuai was also confused when his daughter had such skills, it was a fact that she asked Zhou Luo to take her to the Princess eldest mansion that day, so she believed Xie Chengfeng’s words by seven or eight points.
Xie Chengfeng added: “The reason for the kiss was that my parents wanted me to repay my kindness. Since the Shen family doesn’t want to do this, I can’t force it. I just came here to thank Sanniang for saving my life.”
Shen Jukuai saw that he was carrying a lot of gifts in his hands, and he was polite and polite, thinking that such a nobleman would not care about them. So Shen Zhukuai’s defense went a little further, and he invited Xie Chengfeng to his home.
Xie Chengfeng entered the Shen’s house, and when he saw that the house was empty, he asked, “Where’s San Niang?”
“The distinguished guest didn’t know that Sanniang was assassinated by a traitor a few days ago. Fortunately, there was no serious problem. The mansion asked her to temporarily live in the mansion and come back when the real murderer is found out.”
Xie Chengfeng put down the gift, sat down for a while and said goodbye.
After saying goodbye, he went straight to the government office.
…I can’t wait for a moment, you know, the governor has a great nephew!

The governor also heard about Mr. Xie’s awakening, and some people even used this to flatter the officials. It’s just that he never imagined that as soon as he woke up, Young Master Xie ran to the government office to make trouble and made an unbelievable request.
“You said you wanted to live in the government office?” The governor couldn’t believe his ears, and said after deliberation, “This… seems to be out of order.”
“My savior was murdered by a traitor. Naturally, I was in trouble day and night. I had to come to the yamen myself to keep her safe.”
The governor was dumbfounded, “You mean Shen Sanniang?”
“Exactly.”
The governor didn’t expect that there was such a layer. He looked at the thin figure of the man in front of him, “But you…” You look a little weak!
Xie Chengfeng raised his eyebrows, raised his hand and patted the table, only to see that the huanghuali wood table shattered and fell to the ground together with the fruit plate and tea cup, in a mess.
Fu Yin jumped up from his chair in fright, and was furious, “You…!”
Xie Chengfeng got up and gave him a solemn bow: “I’m here to share the worries of the mansion, please complete the mansion.”
The governor said helplessly, “The official is also you, and the bandit is also you!”
The governor of the government naturally refused to agree to his unreasonable request, so he had to send someone to the palace of the eldest princess and asked the palace to send someone to take the ancestor back. Unexpectedly, the eldest princess’s mansion replied: The dog is indeed here to repay his kindness, and the ruler of the palace will give him some food and a tile to cover, and the eldest princess has prepared a thank-you gift.
Come on, there is no normal person in this family!
