Chapter 149: On the way out of Beijing
Chen Xiang's current situation is actually not as comfortable as it seems on the surface. [No pop-ups. 】
The Son of Heaven reuses him, but he is suspicious of him; Those who wanted to restore the country hated him and wanted to put him to death. He originally wanted to implement a new plan after marrying Shen Liancheng, but this plan was also disrupted as Shen Liancheng became someone else's wife.
Admittedly, it's just a disruption! He still has time.
"Zhou Tianzi sent someone to check the water sleeves." After a moment of silence, the whisper of the water sleeve sounded again.
Chen Xiang hooked the corners of his lips, and there was no change in his eyes. Shui Sleeve's intelligence and alertness, there is no need for him to worry at all, Yu Wenlie's minions will find the slightest clue.
"After that, if there is nothing important and important, don't send messages to the house." Be careful to make the ship of ten thousand years, he doesn't want to become a big thing before, and it will be sideways.
"Yes, the water sleeve knows that he is wrong." Obviously, this time, because Xiang Gongzi summoned him to the Drunken Immortal Building, it was a small thing, and Shui Sleeve was deeply ashamed.
Chen Xiang didn't care, listened to the piano and drank until he was slightly drunk.
The next day, the court held a meeting, and it was very lively. There is some controversy over the reform of Chen Guoren's household registration system.
Some believe that such a change would cause Chen Guoren to riot. There are also some people who believe that this is a shortcut to long-term peace and stability. Some people even believe that when riots are set off, it is a good opportunity to suppress and suppress them.
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty finally seconded this decision. The Son of Heaven immediately appointed Chen Guogong Chen Xiang as the minister of the Eight Orders to go south to supervise the implementation of the household registration reform, and at the same time hold the imperial sword, enjoy the right to act cheaply, and lead the troops to the south to eliminate all the rebellions of the party.
Early the next morning, the Son of Heaven Chenglou practiced and sent Chen Xiang away. The team of Hao Hao Yuyu went out from the south gate of Kyoto and went further and further south.
And a canopy car, followed by three cars, went out from the North City Gate, and it was Li Ji who accompanied Shen Liancheng back to his parents' house, bringing an unknown number of return gifts.
When I went out of the city, there was a lot of discussion on the streets, and there were even more people who coveted Chen Guogong's beauty when they came back from the south gate, and they were sighing with their sisters how amazing Chen Guogong's appearance was in a military uniform.
Listening to the topic of Chen Xiang on the streets, Shen Liancheng and Li Ji had their own thoughts, and they were silent.
After a long time, Li Ji brought a touch of sarcasm and said disdainfully: "I think that after purging the chaotic party and making military achievements, the Son of Heaven can really rely on him?" No matter how much he does, it can't change the fact that he is an orphan of the dead Chen royal family. ”
Hearing this, Shen Liancheng couldn't help but look at him with some surprise. A truth that even Li Ji could think of, Chen Xiang couldn't think of it? The Son of Heaven couldn't have imagined that Chen Xiang would think of it? So, between Chen Xiang and the Son of Heaven... The relationship is delicate.
"Just use each other." She narrowed her gaze and sighed nonchalantly.
Seeing her calm and breezy appearance, Li Ji was inexplicably satisfied.
Shen Liancheng was secretly thinking in his heart, Chen Xiang's ultimate goal was never to really bow down to the Son of Heaven, so what did he want to do? What kind of ending do you want?
Now, Nanliang, Xirong, Beiqi, and North Thursday divide the world, but I don't know, who will be the last master of this troubled world? Zhou Tianzi has such ambitions and ambitions, so he uses Chen Xiang, what about Chen Xiang? Why is it attached?
The carriage had left the city. Flowers bloomed on both sides of the official road. Li Ji lifted the curtain, shook the folding fan lightly, and said in a good mood: "This will be the scene all the way." ”
As far as the eye can see, the warm spring flowers are all over the mountains, some are budding to be released, and some are bright at the beginning of blooming, which is extremely gratifying.
This time when he returned to An's mother's house, Shen Liancheng and Li Ji should have gone out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and for the time being, they put aside all the disputes and unhappiness, and they were in a good mood.
Walking and stopping all the way, a few days later, when he arrived in Qifeng Town, and when he settled at the Wutong Inn, Qingling was surprised to find a person.
Qian'e, who served in the Peony Pavilion at the beginning, was later arranged by the housekeeper to work in Zhuangzi in Tongzhou.
When Qingling saw her, she was taking a plate of snacks to the upper room upstairs.
"Qian'e?" Hearing Qingling's call, she turned around and suddenly saw Shen Liancheng dressed as a noblewoman, Qian'e was as if she had seen a terrible ghost, her hands trembled in fright, and a plate of dim sum almost rolled off.
After she calmed down, she walked down the stairwell and greeted Shen Liancheng.
Shen Liancheng looked at her, and he was also a little surprised, but he thought of something all of a sudden, looked at her closely, and frowned slightly.
"Why are you here?" Qingling asked.
Who else is here? She will never be alone. The snacks on that plate were enough for two people to eat, to say the least, and they were all valuable, not something that she was willing to buy as a slave.
Shen Liancheng's brows furrowed, and he squinted slightly, still looking at her.
"Slave ......" She used to be clever, but now she is full of timidity, and her speech is even more slurred, "Slave...... The slave came with the second lady! As he spoke, he fell to his knees.
Sure enough, it was Shen Ruxiu.
Shen Liancheng raised his eyes, just in time to see the slave Yingying who was close to Shen Ruxiu upstairs coming downstairs. But when Yingying saw the scene downstairs, she ran upstairs in a hurry and was shocked, probably to tell her master.
"Come on, come here, kneel what I do?" Shen Liancheng didn't care, "Hurry up!" ”
Qian'e trembled and hesitated to get up, but she shrunk her body, lowered her eyebrows, and didn't dare to look around.
"Take me to my second sister."
"Yes." Qian'e hurriedly turned around and led the way in front of her head.
As soon as they went up the stairs, Shen Ruxiu and her husband Wang Chongjing were already walking under the corridor.
Shen Ruxiu also combed the woman's hair, wore red and green, and her complexion was very moist. She chuckled, almost implicitly a little proud, and walked towards Shen Liancheng, and called her "sister" affectionately.
"Second sister." Shen Liancheng smiled, and his eyes fell on Wang Chongjing, who was almost thirty years old but still had a crown of jade.
"Hello sister." Facing her gaze, Wang Chongjing saluted her.
"Hello brother-in-law." Shen Liancheng returned the favor.
"What? Can't you see me any of you? Li Ji took the folding fan and stepped forward, straightened up, and said seriously: "I am your brother-in-law!" Call your brother-in-law. ”
Shen Ruxiu and Wang Chongjing glanced at each other, and they were inevitably surprised, "Sister and Li Shizi...... So it's the same as me, pulling your hair? ”
"It's a long story. Something went wrong at the beginning, and I had to secretly leave the cabinet. Shen Liancheng didn't explain much, just pulled Li Ji and said with a smile: "He is indeed your brother-in-law, come and see him." ”
Li Ji didn't know what kind of entanglement there was between Shen Liancheng and Shen Ruxiu, and he was very happy to hear that she and Wang Chongjing both called him "brother-in-law", and his identity was recognized.
"Where's my brother-in-law's room? I'll go with you and see. Wang Chongjing deliberately took Li Ji away because he wanted Shen Ruxiu to talk to Shen Liancheng.
Shen Liancheng was shocked by his accident. And from the way he looked at Shen Ruxiu, it was enough to see that he treated Shen Ruxiu with affection.
It may be said that Shen Ruxiu controlled him very well. (To be continued.) )
