"Isn't it called Qing Zheng?" Feng Jiwen couldn't help but ask suspiciously. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

She had heard her grandfather say it, and she remembered it correctly.

And there is no similarity between the two names, and it is impossible for her to remember it.

When the concubine heard her ask like this, the originally relaxed and comfortable expression in her eyes changed slightly.

Although it was very subtle, it happened to fall in the eyes of Feng Jiwen, who was thinking.

And what made Feng Jiwen feel even more wrong was Mama Yu's reaction - when she heard the word 'Qingzheng', her face changed significantly.

Some of them looked like shock, others like panic......

Feng Jiwen couldn't help but be stunned.

…… What's going on?

"Where did you hear that?" asked Concubine Guo looking at Feng Jiwen, her voice still so calm.

Feng Jiwen, who looked a little stunned, thought about it privately.

"I think I heard it from my grandmother before. She said.

If she bluntly said that her grandfather told her, then her grandfather's face would have no place to rest...... Although it was just a casual remark at first, it also damaged the image of the old man to some extent.

Anyway, my grandfather also learned about it from my grandmother.

Hearing her answer like this, Mama Yu didn't know whether it was relief or something else, and looked at Concubine Guo with a slightly relaxed expression.

The concubine said, "Listen to what your grandmother said, it was a long time ago, and you must have misremembered." ”

It's been years since Feng Jiwen's grandmother died.

Feng Jiwen thought about it when she heard this, and felt that it was not impossible.

She was sure she hadn't heard it wrong, but it was her grandfather who had misremembered......

But...... The reaction of the concubine and Mama Yu when she first heard the name 'Qingzheng' made her feel that there was something wrong.

She suddenly thought of the woman Mrs. Fu Heng had told her that day, who was very similar to the concubine, but had passed away for many years, and her name was Qingzheng.

"Does the concubine recognize the person named Qingzheng?" Feng Jiwen asked tentatively.

"Never heard of it. The concubine replied without hesitation.

But the more she is like this, the more suspicious Feng Jiwen becomes.

If you really don't know anything about Qingzheng, then why did you react like this?

The concubine rarely divulges her true emotions, so revealing even the slightest flaw is not a trivial matter for her.

If it was really my grandfather who remembered the wrong name, then 'Qingzheng'...... Who exactly?

……

Feng Jiwen didn't return to Donkey Meat Hutong until she returned to Donkey Meat Hutong, and her inner doubts still hadn't been reduced by half, but had a tendency to get heavier and heavier.

Su Rili, she is not a person who likes to break the casserole and ask to the end, in the past, the concubine told her not to ask, she never asked even a word more - but this is all under the premise that the concubine has no intention of denying it, but she just doesn't want her to get involved.

But today is a different story.

Because the concubine, who has always disdained to hide anything, actually lied.

This is something that has never happened before.

Feng Jiwen's heart has many clues and questions, as if there is a tendency to become more and more chaotic.

"Madam, someone is here in Jingren Palace today. ”

As soon as Feng Jiwen returned to the Chun Courtyard, she heard Qin Yan say so.

"Jingren Palace?" Feng Jiwen, who had walked all the way, withdrew her thoughts.

"A big palace maid came, saying that she had been instructed by Concubine Jia to pass a message to his wife, so that his wife would enter the palace in three days and talk to Concubine Jia. Qin Yan didn't know the situation in the palace, and she didn't know anything about what Concubine Jia was trying to do, she only felt that this master seemed to be very friendly and kind to his wife, so she smiled in her tone: "I also said that my wife hasn't entered the palace for a long time, and the concubine really misses you very much." ”

Feng Jiwen couldn't relax when she heard it.

A few days after He Shen was promoted to the secretary of the Criminal Department, Concubine Jia invited her to the palace to accompany her, and there is no need to say much about the twists and turns.

"By the way, the palace maid who came to pass the word also sent something over, saying that it was a little heart from Jingren Palace, intended to congratulate the uncle on his promotion. ”

Feng Jiwen's eyebrows jumped: "Accepted the thing?"

"The wife is not at home, and the palace maid is unwilling to wait for a long time, and the slave and maid cannot make their own decisions, so the palace maid will leave the things for the time being, and then decide whether to accept them after the wife returns. Qin Yan said.

Feng Jiwen frowned slightly after hearing this, and asked, "What is the thing sent?"

"The slave has not yet taken a rash look. Qin Yan replied and ordered Xiaocha to take the things.

Feng Jiwen sat down on the chair and opened the brocade box to take a look.

I saw a pair of Kodama Ruyi lying inside.

Ruyi is cast from mutton fat jade, the color is transparent and flawless, glowing with a warm light.

Even if you are a layman, you can see that the price must be expensive.

Intuition told Feng Jiwen that this thing must not be accepted.

The things that come out of the palace are extraordinary things, especially so valuable.

Qin Yan was also a little surprised.

She never expected this "congratulatory gift" to be so valuable.

She looked at Feng Jiwen, who was frowning.

Feng Jiwen's expression completely revealed the mood at the moment.

She deliberately ordered her subordinates to return the things immediately, but then she thought about it, did it seem too deliberate to be in such a hurry?

After all, unlike Shen's grandfather, his grandfather's attitude is firm and clear, and everyone knows it. And although He Shen has no intention of getting involved in party disputes, his inner position is very clear, but to this day, his previous words and deeds have determined that he cannot confront Jingren Palace head-on, or directly refuse the other party's intention to win him over.

Not yet, at least.

But indeed it shall not remain in the house for long.

"Is this congratulatory gift going to be accepted?" Qin Yan asked with a uncertain face on the side.

From the moment she saw the pair of Kodama Ruyi, she also realized that Jingren Palace was only afraid of impure motives.

This is not just something that can be taken out by having a little affection with his wife.

This congratulatory gift is a bit too precious.

It's hard to make people have the heart not to guess.

"Let's make a decision when my master comes back. Feng Jiwen closed the brocade box in front of her and told the maid to put it away temporarily.

In the evening, after He Shen returned home for dinner, Feng Jiwen immediately explained the matter to him.

"How should this congratulatory gift be disposed of?"

"Naturally, I can't take it. He Shen replied without hesitation: "It sounds good and is a congratulatory gift, but if it is raised by someone with a heart, it will be secretly accepted." ”

Feng Jiwen also had this intention, and felt a little more relieved when she heard this, so she asked again: "Then send someone back to Jingren Palace tomorrow?"

"There's no need to be in such a hurry. He Shen looked at her and said, "In my opinion, it is most appropriate for this thing to be returned by Mrs. herself." ”

Sending the congratulatory gift back is undoubtedly a face-breaking thing, so if you don't want to really turn your face because of this, it is better to have the owner personally return it to have the least impact.

Feng Jiwen listened and asked, "What do you mean, let me go to Jingren Palace in three days, and then bring things with me?"

"That's right. He Shen bowed his head slightly, lowered his head and went to serve the tea bowl with one hand, and said with a smile: "By the way, bring it-" This sentence is used very well.

This kind of thing can only be 'piggybacked by the way'.

……

The next day, Feng Jiwen got up half an hour earlier than usual.

He Shen still got up in front of her without exception, and when Feng Jiwen opened his eyes, he had already packed up, dressed in the official uniform of the crane complement, holding a poinsettia coral in his hand, and was standing in front of the bed and looking at Feng Jiwen with a smile.

Feng Jiwen, who had just opened her eyes, was stunned for a moment.

"Didn't you go to the morning court?" she asked, looking at the person standing in front of her bed, in a hazy but extraordinarily soft voice.

And he went out. While talking to Shen, he bent down slightly, and gently rubbed the top of Feng Jiwen's head twice with his palm.

Feng Jiwen looked at him with eyes that were still a little worried.

What is he rubbing her head for?

However, before she could react to the question, he had already turned and left the inner room.

How to look at the back, how to reveal a sense of refreshment.

Feng Jiwen said secretly: "Inexplicable......"

However, what is even more 'inexplicable' is that when she spit out this sentence, there was a smile in her tone.

Sound...... Silly.

As soon as this consciousness was formed in her mind, Feng Jiwen felt a little funny, and she couldn't help but want to laugh.

Xiaoxian walked in and saw Feng Jiwen lying on the bed grinning and smirking.

"How can my wife be so happy early in the morning?" asked Xiaoxian with a smile.

“…… Had a good dream. Feng Jiwen prevaricated casually, sat up straight with her hands on her left and right, and said, "There are still many things to be busy today, wait for me to change my clothes and wash up." ”

Xiaoxian smiled and replied "yes".

Today is the day of the feast with the house.

Compared with the banquet scene of other officials in the capital who were promoted to first-class officials, there are very few people who come to the house to be guests today, and even a little 'unruly'.

What I don't know is that the popularity of this newly appointed scholar of the Criminal Department is too bad, so that no one cares.

"Who are the guests here?" asked Feng Jiwen and Xiao Cha, who had just returned from the front yard, in the side hall of the inner courtyard.

There were three women sitting beside her—Mrs. Fu Heng, Mrs. Wang Jie, and Mrs. Yuan Mei.

"The old lady, Mr. Yuan, and the third son of Fu arrived early in the morning. Xiao Cha replied: "Mr. Ding and Mr. Qian are also here, as well as the Qin steward in the Zhongyong Mansion-right now, there is such a second son as Jin." ”

Ding Ziyu and Qian Yingming were added later by He Shen.

And Fukang Anken came, Feng Jiwen was a little surprised at first.

"Then wait a little longer, and it will be some time before we leave the feast. Feng Jiwen said.

The ladies glanced at each other, but they all looked very puzzled.

It was Mrs. Fu Heng who asked, Feng Jiwen: "How many seats have been placed today?"

She listened to the words of the little tea maid, and it seemed that something was not quite right.

"There are only two, one for men and one for each woman. Feng Jiwen said jokingly: "There are only three ladies who have come to the female guests, and I will be seated later, but I am afraid that it will be a little empty." ”

Several ladies were surprised, and Mrs. Wang Jie, who was standing next to a boy, asked aloud, "Why are only these people invited?"

In the past ten days, there are no less than 100 people who come to the door to congratulate them, right?

"My grandfather said that the home is simple and the yard is small, so it is really unbearable to receive so many distinguished guests. Feng Jiwen still smiled and said: "It is said that I will move to a new house in the coming day, and then I will make up for it decently." ”

These words were all spoken by He Shen himself.

And not with her, but with the colleagues who came to congratulate her.

The officials' reaction, she thought, was probably laughable.

Several ladies also laughed.

The home is simple, and the yard is small, which is really unbearable......

What is this called?

After living all these years, I have never heard of a first-class master who refused customers for such a reason......

But the ladies are not simple-minded people, and after a little thought, they all guessed the general thoughts of the husband and wife.

"Then when you move to a new house, will it be possible to invite only these people and not us?" asked Mrs. Fu Heng with a half-truthful expression.

"Naturally not. Feng Jiwen smiled: "I'm afraid I'll have to give a few more ladies the next post——"

Hearing this, Mrs. Yuan Mei looked at the other two ladies and said, "Then a few of us have picked up a bargain, people have one meal, let's eat two." ”

A few of them burst out laughing.

"Mother......" At this time, the boy next to Mrs. Wang Jie timidly pulled the corner of Mrs. Wang Jie's clothes.

This is the child of Wang Jie and his wife who just passed away from their hometown Hancheng some time ago, and they look like they are only six or seven years old, their facial features tend to be delicate, but their complexion is a little yellow, and they don't look very healthy.

This child has been sick since he came to the capital, and he has hardly stopped big and small.

"What's wrong, Kang'er?" asked Mrs. Wang Jie softly.

"I want to go out for a walk......"

Mrs. Wang Jie hesitated slightly.

The child was not in good health, and she seldom brought him out in the past few days, so she was not very relieved to let him out of her sight.

"I think it's a little stuffy in the house, and the child can't stay anymore. Mrs. Fu Heng said: "It's better to let the maid take it out for a walk, don't go too far." ”

"He can't understand what we are talking about, the child is the age when he loves to play, and it's not good to be bored all the time. Mrs. Yuan Mei also said with a smile.

Mrs. Wang Jie also nodded when she heard this, and repeatedly explained that the maid looked at the little master, and said that she would come back when she was tired of playing, and she should not go too far.

"This kid looks much more energetic than last time. Mrs. Fu Heng looked at the back of the boy who was led out by the maid and said.

"Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad. Mrs. Wang Jie's face was a little sad and sighed slightly.

……

In the main hall of the front yard, there was talk and laughter from time to time.

Fukangan, who had been recuperating at home for a few days, glanced at the scene of everyone talking and laughing, and felt that there was no room for him to interject at all, and he didn't want to interject, so he simply found an excuse and left the front hall.

And Qian Yingming, who boasted of being high and unwilling to lower his posture and take the initiative to talk to the people present, was not able to sit still, and Fukangan had just walked for a long time, and he went out.

Qian Yingming, who felt that he was not suitable for this kind of scene, took a long breath and came out.

"Little master, when did you say that the second master and the second master will be well, and then take us to the suburbs to ride horses?"

Suddenly, a voice came, Qian Yingming subconsciously raised his eyes, and saw that in the verandah in front of him, Feng Shuzhi walked over with his personal servant. (To be continued.) )
