Chapter 132: Re-entering the Tiger's Den
Shen Xi closed the door and waited until there was movement in the attic opposite, and then he lay in the crack of the door and saw Helan Chen leading people downstairs, and then returned to the back of the desk and sat down. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Helan Zhen is an important minister by King Yan's side, and he also knows that this is Xiao Huai's territory, and she is tied to a ten-year contract, even if she avoids it today, there will still be many opportunities to meet in the future.
She couldn't avoid it every time, so she had to think of a way to completely dispel his attention to her once and for all.
Only by removing his suspicions can she find an opportunity to dig into his background.
But he walked in Da Zhou with this face, I just don't know if anyone has doubted his background like her?
There should be a considerable number of people in the court who are the same age as Xu Jing, the age of King Yan, and they were also the generals of Great Qin, so it stands to reason that he has seen Xu Jing.
If so, how did Helan Zhen, who has the same appearance as Xu Jing, become his confidant?
This man is really a mystery.
While they were pondering, there was a knock on the door.
Then he was pushed away, and a large piece of skylight leaked in, and the person with a long and sturdy figure was as majestic as a mountain, standing under the door against the light and saying: "Ming'er is on the morning, come here again." ā
Shen Xi didn't know why, but seeing that his face was cold, he couldn't refuse at first glance, so he had to hum and nodded.
Come on, anyway, she has to ask him what Helan Zhen is doing, he is more familiar with others, and he may have an idea.
After Xiao Huai finished explaining, he went downstairs and left.
Shen Xi finished pounding the remaining jade and handed it over to Liu Ling, and then went back to the house.
At the gate of the courtyard was the door where Aunt Pei came to greet her, and she asked as she walked, "Is the old lady back?"
She was still thinking about Xiao Huai's request for credit for him.
Aunt Pei said: "Not yet." ā
She nodded and went back to Rika Temple first.
It stands to reason that Shen Ruopu will receive the news soon, although there may not be a shortage of children who can be promoted right now, but this merit has been implemented, and it will always be beneficial.
At the next day, when she was listening to Shen Liang's poems here, Shen Ruopu sent someone to pass her to Wanrong Hall.
"The emperor has rewarded me today. ā
As soon as he entered the door, he heard his eyes burning: "It's Chen Xiu's case." I inquired, and it turned out to be the excerpt handed by the prince of Yan Wang to the ministry, and the merit asked for me.
"It seems that you are right, fortunately you did not go to tell Yan King Chen Xiu that his death was unjust, otherwise not only would he not get this reward, but he would also offend people. ā
Shen Xi also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Grandfather has done his best, and this reward is deserved." ā
Shen Ruopu smiled.
After thinking about it, he turned around and took a small cardboard box from the case: "The dim sum rewarded by the queen mother in the palace, the little girls like it, you take it and eat it." ā
Shen Xi took it and opened it, and it was a few delicate pastries.
The palace not only gave a reward, but also a reward, and this face is big.
It's just that most of this face is because of Xiao Huai, otherwise how could it be obtained with the Shen family's momentum?
From this point of view, the status of Yan Wangfu is really special.
Now Shen Xi's side is also calm, and there has been no movement for many days, so that she has not yet found a chance to dig out the future situation from her mouth.
I don't know what the future of the Shen family will be like without her?
"Old lady, Lord Chen from Chestnut Hutong asks to see you. ā
At this time, Fu'an came in and said.
Shen Ruopu hurriedly stepped out of the door.
This commendation order really brought Shen Ruopu a lot of glory.
From the end of the day, the number of visitors increased significantly.
Although Shen Xi stayed in Lixiangyuan and never went out, the news from outside did not escape her ears.
The next morning, the ladies of the Shaoqing Mansion of Dali Temple came to visit the Huang family again, and came to add makeup to Shen Xin by the way.
Shen Xi asked Shen Xin to go back to the courtyard to answer the salute, so he didn't have to come over.
After breakfast, I cleaned up, and watched the blue wind clear, so I took the maids to pick locust flowers under the locust tree with small copper hooks.
Suddenly, Pingshuang came over with a look of surprise: "Girl, the second grandmother of the Han family has come to invite you to come over for tea." ā
Qiu's?!
Shen Xi was stunned when she heard this, and couldn't help but turn her head to look at the courtyard gate, and sure enough, she saw a very well-dressed grandmother standing under the porch, and the outfit was exactly the same as the servant woman she saw last time by Qiu's side!
She slipped down the small wooden ladder, good fellow, she looked forward to the stars and the moon, and she was looking forward to her!
"Is Grandma alright?" she asked, smiling.
The mother-in-law bowed her head: "If you go back to the girl, grandma has missed the girl a lot recently." ā
Salute and salute, but the respect in the mother-in-law's eyes is not at all.
Shen Xi didn't care, even the Shen family looked down on people, let alone the Han family?
She thought about it for a moment, then asked her mother-in-law to wait, and then went back to the room to change her clothes.
Pearl said: "Girl, is she going to the Han family immediately?
Of course she already knew who the owner behind Qionghuatai was, and the prince of Yan Wang was obviously bigger than the Qiu family, and she didn't understand why she valued the Qiu family's invitation so much.
Shen Xi suddenly remembered this stubble, and the hand that inserted the hairpin paused, and then said: "It's still early, it's too late to go to Han's house to see him after going to the Han family first." ā
Xiao Huai didn't think it mattered if she was a woman, and now that the Shen family was left with Shen Xi to finish, she should focus on the Han family.
Wen Chan had already taken the incense throwing stone to ask for directions, and this time, she had to try to meet her.
But if she was late, I wonder if he would be angry?
But when I think about it, I don't care about him!
In front of the murderous enemy, even if he was standing in front of her, she would not give up this opportunity no matter what.
"You ask Wang'er to go to Qionghuatai and tell Liu Ling, just say that I have something to delay, and I have to go later. ā
After finishing her makeup, she was silent in the mirror for a while, and finally gave an order.
Then he wrapped a few boxes of incense and a few small embroideries that had been prepared a long time ago, and led the pearls out of the door.
It's been almost a month, and the Qiu clan has been able to stand still until now, and it's a good idea.
It stands to reason that she can't wait so long, is she deliberately hanging, or is there something in the Han family that is delayed?
But the Han family has to be like this, what else can make her two grandmothers unable to pull away and try to please Wen Chan?
pondered all the way here, and it didn't take long to arrive at Hanfu.
This time, I am familiar with the road.
Escaped that day and entered the Hanran Hall, and heard Qiu's crisp laughter coming out from a distance.
Listening closely, she said, "That's a good thing!
When I stepped through the second gate, I saw several young women standing in the inner courtyard.
Qiu's today is wearing a long red carrot with a red pomegranate skirt, which is a little more charming than the last time.
The other two standing beside her were young girls dressed as official ladies, both of whom were about the same height.
The goose egg face in the lotus cardigan, willow eyebrows, big eyes with affection, a smile at the corners of the mouth, fair and plump, gentle and amiable, very eye-catching.
