Three days later, Shen Qihuan and Qi Linyu personally sent Wang Changzhi out of Beijing, and on the same day, the new disaster relief policy exploded in the court, and the emperor appointed three ministers to go to Jinzhou, Handzhou, and Quzhou respectively, and transferred 60 officials from the six ministries and court officials to assist the three ministers to implement the new policy. Among the officials involved, not only He Wenxin, an unpopular minister, but also Chen Xu, Shen Qin, Chen Xiaoshi, the son of the Chen family, and Lu Rongze, the son of the Lu family, were all on the first batch of the list to be announced.

In addition to the staffing, the first decree issued by the emperor was aimed at grain merchants, six words - "severely punish hoarding and juqi"

This means that those who hoard grain and do not sell it, as well as those who make hostile purchases and raise prices, will be severely punished.

It's just that the candidate for the disaster relief governor has not been announced for a long time. In order not to wade into troubled waters, Qi Linyu simply said that he was sick, and stayed at home every day to play with flowers and plants, read books and play chess.

In mid-September, Chen Xu went to the Jing'an Palace, and brought his wife Zhang Miyun.

When the post was first sent in, Qi Linyu didn't know what was wrong, and even said directly: "I don't see", or Shen Quehuan said it well, and coaxed people to Jiayuzhai with a smile and a small volt.

Shen Qihuan called Zhang's to the flower hall of Hehuan Courtyard to talk.

When Chen Xu and Zhang's got married, it was summer, and at that time, Hongzhi was poisoning, and she tried to find a famous doctor every day, and she didn't bother to go up to drink happy wine. Later, although Chen Nanzhi was asked to transfer the red envelope, Shen Qihuan always felt that it was inappropriate, so he asked Qiu Xiao to pick out a few things and prepare to come out.

Qiu Xiao originally didn't care: "The slave maid heard that Mrs. Chen is very arrogant, and she always said outside that Gongzi Chen can have today all thanks to her uncle in the Hanlin Academy, and he is not ......lukewarm to our Aunt Chen."

Shen Qihuan may have expected Chen Xu's marriage a long time ago, and she didn't feel angry when she heard this, so she only said: "Aunt Chen doesn't need her to stammer, if Chen Xu grows up, are you afraid that Aunt Chen will suffer?" Besides, let's give her something to give Chen Xu a long face, and the two of them will live together coldly, and it will take a while to see it." ”

Qiu Xiao silently sucked behind him, thinking: Aren't you and the prince also newly married, and I haven't seen how you run in.

As she spoke, Ginkgo came in with Zhang, and Shen Qihuan gave Qiu Xiao a look and reminded her not to lose the rules later.

The one who came in was a medium one, and his eyebrows were not outstanding, but he was wearing a hanging eyebrow, but his outfit was very delicate, and he wore a skirt with tilly wrapped branches, a moire brocade inlaid white marble leather belt around his waist, and a complete set of seven ivory jade pieces on his neck, wrists, and hair.

It is actually a little more delicate than the set of head noodles prepared by Qiu Xiao.

Seeing this scene, Shen Qihuan and Qiu Xiao were stunned.

Zhang's face to Shen Que was slowly blessed, and the rules were still in the past, but when she got up, Zhang's maid stepped forward to help her master.

Shen Quehuan's eyebrows moved: "Could it be ......?"

Zhang replied shyly and timidly: "Don't dare to hide the princess, the concubine is already two months pregnant." ”

"Yes!" Shen Que straightened up happily and instructed Ginkgo: "Help Mrs. Chen sit quickly." ”

Ginkgo biloba should be "yes", and Qiu Xiao commanded the maid Ci Mushroom and Lily of the Valley, removed the incense and tea, replaced it with the ornament of green jade ring water, and replaced it with wheat tea.

The people in the room moved quickly and methodically, and they could see that Zhang's and the maids beside him were nervously about to stand up.

If it is someone else's housewife, at this time, it is indispensable to ask about the fetal appearance, reaction, taste or something, but Shen Qihuan doesn't know anything about this, but she can't help but be happy in her heart, and feels that Chen Nanzhi will definitely be happy if she hears the news, so she asked: "Does your sister know the news?"

Zhang's face was stunned, and then he said: "The day before yesterday, the doctor only came to see the pulse, and I haven't had time to talk to my aunt yet." ”

Shen Que hurriedly instructed Jin Xing: "You let Deng Feng run away and report a message to Aunt Chen." ”

Jin Xing left in response, but Qiu Xiao glanced at Zhang's expression, and sure enough, Zhang's eyes lowered slightly, and both the master and servant were a little unhappy.

Shen Qihuan entertained visitors for the first time without a purpose, and the words of greeting seemed a little exhausted, the scene was cold and hot, and it was obvious that no one was at ease.

In the end, I asked about Zhang's clothes: "Concubine Ben saw that your clothes were good, and I don't know which shop you made them in." ”

The corners of Zhang's lips raised slightly: "Princess, this is the ready-to-wear of the Yunhua Embroidery Workshop in Kyoto, there was originally a better one, but I found out that I was pregnant, and the minister said that I wanted to wear it looser, so I hurriedly bought another one." ”

Shen Quehuan quietly sucked on the tea, and said in his heart: The ordinary ready-to-wear clothes in Yunhua Embroidery Workshop still cost dozens of taels, and Chen Xu doesn't even have a fortune now, is it possible for this Zhang family to use the dowry silver to buy clothes?

But with her status, is it necessary to dress so luxuriously?

When the people left, Shen Que Huan ordered Jin Xing and Yin Xing to go to Xinglin Hutong and Yunhua Embroidery Workshop to investigate the matter respectively, and when they woke up in the afternoon, they both brought back the news.

Jin Xing said: "Xinglin Hutong Chen family these two days like a city, a lot of female relatives rushed to make friends, two days ago I heard that the Kyoto Chen family sent someone to send a few large boxes of gifts, Zhang's maid and neighbors chatted and said that Chen Xu Gongzi and Kyoto Chen family are three generations of relatives. ”

"Fart!" Shen Que said in surprise, slamming the table and standing up.

The maids in the room were very frightened, and they all went to look at the male master who was reading a book by the south window, and saw that he did not show much surprise, so they all breathed a sigh of relief again.

Ginkgo was afraid that Miss would not be able to say anything, so she hurriedly picked up Jin Xing's words: "Miss, Yunhua Embroidery Workshop has also found out that the person who ordered the clothes is the maid next to Grandma He." ”

"Chen Peiyan?" Shen Qihuan twisted his eyebrows and thought of a key question: "Who settled the account?"

Ginkgo: "It was settled by Uncle He's little servant in the past, and he did it three times in total, and all of them were recorded in Uncle He's account." ”

Shen Que walked back and forth in the room happily, muttering that he didn't know what he was talking about, but judging from his expression, it was definitely not a good word. The maids' hearts were raised again, and they saw Qi Linyu moving on the chair, and said in a strange way: "I haven't seen the concubine spend so much time on this king." ”

Except for Shen Qihuan, they all heard that something was wrong with the prince's tone.

Shen Qihuan walked over and sat opposite Qi Linyu, and counted Chen Xu with a posture of hating iron but not steel: "If the Zhang family continues like this, Chen Xu's hind legs will be broken by her, it is not certain that Aunt Chen knows about this, when Changru did not return to Beijing, Aunt Chen didn't even enter the door when she went to join the Chen family, and then she insisted that Chen Xu became a jinshi, if she knew that the Zhang family did this, she would not be angry and turned her back on it." ”

Shen Quehuan's tongue was dry, snatched the tea bowl in Qi Linyu's hand and drank it up, and then said: "Chen Xu let the Zhang family come over in those clothes, he must have a good idea, he is even more cold to his sister's heart, in this way, I will call Chen Xu over, you can count him down and let him ......"

Qi Linyu suddenly raised his head, his indifferent expression seemed to have a crack, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became cold for a moment.
