Guide to Failing as a Full-Level Green Tea-Chapter 288.1 - The Old Fox
Shen Roujia’s plans had come true, and the plot had also unfolded as expected, but she didn’t seem particularly happy. After all, she hadn’t noticed anything in the letter that suggested Gu Zhi was especially pleased.
It seemed like Gu Zhi was merely informing Shen Roujia about these matters.
Shen Roujia sighed softly. Suddenly, Zai Zai rushed over, anxiously tugging at her, trying to pull her outside.
Shen Roujia looked at Zai Zai, puzzled.
“Little guy, what are you fussing about this time?”
Of course, Zai Zai couldn’t speak. By now, it was already half-grown and looked quite strong and powerful.
Shen Roujia couldn’t resist and had to follow Zai Zai outside.
Zai Zai’s behavior seemed as if it wanted to lead Shen Roujia to escape. Shen Roujia became even more confused.
“What exactly happened? Did you hear something?”
Zai Zai nervously paced in circles. Shen Roujia stretched her neck to look into the distance, but she still didn’t understand what Zai Zai wanted to do.
In this situation, Shen Roujia couldn’t even calm down to focus on anything, just like when she first started. She hadn’t thought she would be able to do anything.
Shen Roujia thought about the current situation and couldn’t believe she was witnessing such a scene.
It was a procession more luxurious than any merchant caravan, almost like a wedding procession.
Shen Roujia paused, then furrowed her brows tightly.
“Did something happen over there?”
Zai Zai tugged at Shen Roujia’s skirt, preventing her from heading in that direction.
At that moment, Wen Surong and Tu Lie, leading a group of people, suddenly approached. Shen Roujia quickly followed Zai Zai to hide behind a large tent.
Wen Surong’s voice, neither too loud nor too soft, reached their ears, “Your Excellency, this way please. This is the princess’s residence.”
Seeing that the door was wide open with no one inside, Wen Surong seemed to relax as he glanced at the envoy.

Shen Roujia peeked out and was startled by what she saw. The so-called envoy was none other than Gao Huaichang.
Shen Roujia froze on the spot, her unease growing with each passing second.
“This marriage alliance between His Majesty and the princess is a legendary tale for both the Northern Border and Great Zhou. You shouldn’t worry about what we’ll do. Whether this happens or not, I still need to see the princess before making any decisions.”
When Shen Roujia heard Gao Huaichang’s words, she immediately understood.
Xu Zening must have discovered her whereabouts. However, due to the complexities of the Northern Border, he couldn’t investigate further, so Gao Huaichang came to confirm her identity.
Shen Roujia gritted her teeth tightly.
She never expected to fall into Xu Zening’s hands in the end.
Tu Lie was visibly displeased, “What do you take my sister for? A commodity to be exchanged?”
“My sister is a pearl in the sky. If your emperor doesn’t appreciate her, what then?”
Tu Lie was clearly upset, but Shen Roujia felt a sense of comfort hearing his words. After all, someone was standing up for her. She hadn’t expected her brother to be so protective.
But Gao Huaichang was an old fox.
“You should know how valuable iron ore is. Our emperor’s intentions are not to be taken lightly. The chaos in the Northern Border is well known to both of us. Great Zhou has always been benevolent, and no one truly takes such matters to heart.”
After hearing this, Shen Roujia understood that the root of the issue wasn’t here.
