848 Showdown (1)
On this day, an uninvited guest came to Prince Rui’s mansion.
One look and one could tell that he was someone who had been on the battlefield. He stood straight at the entrance of the mansion, looking like he had come with ill intentions.
The guard at the door stopped the burly man, who said, “Bring me to see Prince Rui.”
The burly man was arrogant, but the guards of Prince Rui’s mansion weren’t pushovers. They did not back down at all. Instead, they said, “If there’s no invitation. His Highness won’t see you.”
Just as the burly man was about to flare up, he heard a surprised voice from inside. “General Shen?” He looked up and saw Tie Yi striding over. When he walked over, he glared at the guards and said respectfully, “General Shen, I hope you won’t mind them being rude. I’ll bring you to see His Highness at once.”
The guard widened his eyes, probably having realized who “General Shen” was. Then, he looked at Shen Xin suspiciously, as if he did not expect him to come at this time.
Shen Xin was filled with anger. Over the past few days, he had been tossing and turning. Every time he thought of his ridiculous guess a few days ago, he could not sleep well. He thought that as time passed, this matter would gradually fade away. Unexpectedly, the longer it passed, the harder it was for him to get over it.
Shen Xin was a person who did not like to dwell on something. Once he had any doubts, he would definitely get to the bottom of it. Moreover, this concerned Shen Miao’s life. Therefore, he finally decided to come to Prince Rui’s mansion personally. No matter what the outcome was, he had to find out.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived, he encountered a stupid guard, making him even more furious..
Fortunately, Tie Yi was a sensible person. When he saw that Shen Xin seemed to be angry, he tried to make him happy by saying that everyone in Prince Rui’s mansion had been busy with the marriage recently, so that Shen Miao could get married in a grand manner and not be embarrassed in Ming Qi.
Shen Xin followed Tie Yi all the way. As Tie Yi had said, the mansion was decorated with lanterns inside and outside, looking very festive. No matter what, the people of Prince Rui took this marriage very seriously. Only then did Shen Xin feel much better.
When they arrived at the door of a room, Tie Yi stopped and said, “I can’t enter His Highness’s study. Someone has already reported it. General Shen, you can go in directly.”
Shen Xin thought that what he said to Prince Rui later would be very private, so naturally, he could not let outsiders hear it. If the servants could not enter the study, it would be much more convenient to have the conversation. At the same time, he was a little puzzled. Prince Rui did not allow the servants to enter, but he was allowed to enter. Wasn’t Prince Rui afraid that he would attack him? However, on a second thought, he understood that with the skills Prince Rui displayed that day, they were probably equal opponents.
Although he was thinking a lot, Shen Xin still looked calm on the surface. He nodded and walked into the door, only to see a furry white thing suddenly jump out of the door. It was a white tiger, but it was still small, whimpering at him aggressively.
Shen Xin almost slashed down with his sword.
Tie Yi immediately went forward to carry the white tiger away. Shen Xin took a deep breath and pushed the door open to enter.
In the room, Prince Rui was sitting on a chair and reading. His posture was lazy, and he was flipping through the pages casually.
Shen Xin frowned. “Prince Rui?”
