Chapter 123: Help

Li Chengmao glanced at the subordinates in the flower hall, and pretended to stop talking. Seeing this, Wesley, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, smiled and withdrew from all the idlers in the house.

"Big brother." Li Chengmao's call made the smile on his face disappear.

"You...... How do you know? He looked at Li Chengmao in disbelief, and then at Shen Yan, who was silent on the side, calm and calm like an attendant, "You also know?" The second prince trusts you so much? His gaze stayed on Li Chengmao again, "Who else knows?" ”

Shen Yan didn't reply to his words, but couldn't help but sneer: "We know about this, Lord Wei doesn't seem to be very happy?" Are you afraid that if we say it, the people of the world will treat you as a monster? ”

Wesley laughed. Thinking that at the beginning, he threatened the second prince with his identity, but now that he is in a high position, he never thought that these two people would come and threaten him with his identity - in Shen Yan's words, it was clearly a threat.

"If I don't help you, you're going to tell the story? Who would believe, you think? He curled the corner of his lips, looked cold, and said the same thing that the second prince had said to him.

"Master Wei is too worried." Shen Yan said, "I believe that for the sake of family affection, you will not stand idly by." ”

"Big Brother ......"

"Don't call me big brother!" Wesley's eyes lit up, interrupting Li Chengmao's words, and he said, "I'm not your big brother. The affairs of the Hou Mansion have nothing to do with me, you are yourself, so you can do it yourself. ”

His words were so cruel that Lee Seung-mao almost didn't believe it, was he really his eldest brother? He frowned slightly, and asked him disappointedly: "Even if the emperor really takes back the gold medal for avoiding death, even if I am really imprisoned." Even if you are asked, you don't care? ”

"I have a very good relationship with Prime Minister Gu." Wesley said and laughed, "Why should I bother with someone else's business. To spoil such a rapport? Come, send off. ”

Li Chengmao glanced at him hatefully, didn't say much, turned around and left on his own.

Shen Yan found that the moment he turned around, there was a clear change in Wesley's face. She smiled slightly, committed herself to courtesy, and then took her leave.

"Stop! Why are you laughing? Wesley stopped her and asked.

"I didn't laugh." Shen Yan didn't look at him, and after saying this, she took another step.

Look at her back as she leaves arrogantly. Wesley couldn't help but wonder what a difference this woman who had once pursued him was now a wife and mother.

He was amazed by the calm temperament she exuded. Is it with this calmness and calmness that she enjoys a certain status in the Hou Mansion? Otherwise, how could the Hou Mansion let her and Li Chengmao come to the capital to ask for help from themselves?

When Li Chengmao left the Wei Mansion, he was extremely disappointed when he was thinking about the green past with his eldest brother, and compared to his current indifference. Even when Shen Yan shouted at him from behind, he couldn't hear it.

"Second Master!" Outside the Wei Mansion, Shen Yan stood on the steps with a loud shout, and Li Chengmao stopped. When he looked back, he was overly disappointed and hated. And red eyes. Shen Yan approached and said gently: "He just wants to cut off relations with the Hou Mansion, but he." It doesn't have to be a death story. ”

Li Chengmao looked at her in amazement.

"He is not a ruthless and unrighteous person to his relatives." Shen Yan chuckled. Although she said nice things, her smile was full of contempt for some reason.

"How can you tell. He won't care about the survival of the Hou Mansion? A little hope appeared in Li Chengmao's eyes.

"Aren't you supposed to know him better than I do?"

After she said this, Li Chengmao suddenly smiled. How his eldest brother treats Jiao's. He knows what to do with him. was hit by the second prince's horse that time, and it was he who pushed himself out, and he was the one who was injured, and it was he who changed now.

"Let's find an inn to settle down in." Shen Yan said that she was about to get into the carriage.

Li Chengmao agreed, and followed forward to ride a horse.

Soon, they settled at the Huafu Inn.

After resting in the house, Xiyu expressed the doubts in her heart, "Miss, you didn't say that you were looking for General Wei, why did you find Master Wei?" Lord Nawei is not related to the Hou Mansion, will he help the Hou Mansion? How could I be confused about what you said to the second master outside the Hou Mansion? ”

"Master Wei admires Hou Ye's talent, and since he visited Hou Mansion with the saint last year, he has befriended Hou Ye. He is now a squire in the military department, and like Prime Minister Gu Cheng, he is also a popular person around the emperor, so it will not be wrong for us to ask him for help. ”

"Then ...... him"

"Side, you don't have to ask more." Shen Yan interrupted Xiyu's words.

"Oh......" Xiyu pursed her lips, only to feel that her young lady has changed a lot after becoming a wife and mother, and she is not as good as before. She sighed to herself, thinking about it, she is the master in the end, and she is just a subordinate.

She dusted off the bed, looking a little listless, and finally Shen Yan saw her thoughts.

Shen Yan sat at the table, but she didn't say anything to comfort her.

The night passed quickly.

After eating some snacks in the morning, Li Chengmao said: "I want Ding Quan to inquire and see if there is any movement in the court today." ”

"That's what I mean." Shen Yan was very happy that Li Chengmao, who had calmed down, could do what he should think. She thought that now he could settle everything without her. Therefore, after he explained Ding Quan's affairs, she said: "The second master is waiting for news at the inn, and I asked Xiyu to accompany me out for a walk." I grew up here, and this is my hometown. Once in a rare time, I would like to see the scenery of my hometown, reminisce about my childhood, or meet my young friends. ”

Li Chengmao was puzzled that she had the heart to observe the scenery at this time, and opened his mouth to say something, but after thinking about it, he nodded and agreed. He thought that he should have to worry about life and death by himself.

Shen Yan took Xiyu to walk leisurely and elegantly on the street, and finally walked in the direction of Wei Mansion.

Wei Jiuting is in the palace, his father has not yet left the court, and only Mrs. Wei is at home. As soon as she entered the door, she said that she was entrusted by Wei Min to visit Lord Wei, Mrs. Wei, and General Wei.

Hearing her words, Mrs. Wei became more and more kind to her. The conversation between the two became more and more speculative. Soon they became "aunt" and "Yan'er".

"Auntie, Sister Min Min has something to say to Brother Jiu Ting in private," Shen Yan finally said her true intention, "Can you send someone to the palace to spread a message and let Brother Jiu Ting go back to the house?" ”

Mrs. Wei thought for a moment and said, "It's okay." When I was young, my family Jiu Ting could talk to you, and it is rare for you to come to the capital and call him back to see you, which is also right. After that, she sent someone to the palace to call Wei Jiuting back home.

This Mrs. Wei is a kind person in the end. Wei Jiuting and Wei Min are both like her. If it weren't for such a mother, only a father like Wei You, I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to teach children like Wei Jiuting and Wei Min.

Drinking tea, eating snacks, and chatting with Mrs. Wei, Shen Yan soon looked forward to Wei Jiuting. When Wei Jiuting rushed back to the house, his face was ruddy, as if he had rushed back. When he saw Shen Yan, he was very happy.

When he greeted Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Wei said that she was a little tired and retreated to the back room. Before leaving, she didn't forget to tell Wei Jiuting: "Yan'er came from afar, don't neglect her." Then she said to Shen Yan happily: "You will eat here at noon, and you must not postpone it." ”

"Okay." Shen Yan smiled and nodded, and agreed.

Seeing that she was so compatible with his mother, Wei Jiuting couldn't help but feel a wave of regret in his heart, if there were not so many changes, he married her as a wife, how good it would be. He will not listen to his father's words, marry a rude woman, and always make his mother angry.

"Brother Jiu Ting, why do you have such a look? Isn't it upset to see me? Shen Yan saw that his expression was strange, so she asked jokingly.

He laughed hurriedly, "How can you not be happy? Instead, he came down seriously and asked in a low voice: "Sister Yan'er came this time, but for the matter of the 1,000 taels of silver tickets?" ”

"It's not a matter of a thousand taels of silver now." Shen Yan said that he glanced at the surrounding idlers and others, and motioned for Wei Jiuting to let them avoid it. When there were only two of them left in the hall, she told him the truth about what happened to the Hou Mansion.

"I didn't expect them to move so fast." Wei Jiuting couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, "I found out about this matter, I only feel that this matter is not trivial, I originally planned to go to Ning'an City in the next two days, so that I can discuss countermeasures with you, but I didn't expect them to move so fast!" ”

Saying that, he saw that there was no panic or worry on Shen Yan's face, and he couldn't help but pause and ask, "Sister Yan'er, why aren't you anxious about this matter?" The surname Gu wants the emperor to accept the gold medal of the Hou Mansion, but it is not the end, it is just the beginning. Without the protection of the gold medal for avoiding death, they can use their hands and feet to give anyone in the Hou Mansion a crime. ”

"The Hou Mansion has its own nobles to help, Brother Jiu Ting doesn't have to worry." Shen Yan smiled, "I came this time just because Sister Min Min has never received your reply, and I'm very worried about you." ”

"I should have gone to Ning'an City early, but I was entangled by Shangguan." Wei Jiuting blamed himself a little, and quickly asked, "Who are you talking about?" ”

"Brother Jiuting will know when the time comes." Shen Yan just laughed, didn't explain much, and suddenly changed the topic and asked, "Brother Jiu Ting, what do you think of Lord Wesleyway, the squire of the military department, as an official?" ”

"Him?" Wei Jiuting thought for a while and said, "For the people, he is a good official. Many of his admonitions are beneficial to the Great Zhou Society. Well......" he hesitated.

"But how?"

"He was proud and a ruthless man. He had few friends and showed no mercy to his political enemies. ”

Shen Yan nodded slightly, and couldn't help but think to herself.

Wei Jiuting felt strange, so he asked, "Sister Yan'er asked him what he was doing?" (To be continued.) )
