Chapter 128: The Dust Settles
Shi Weitian is still as good as ever, laughing and laughing, Shuheng took off his hat and pushed the door in, and saw Bai Suyuan and Wenhe. I think this private room was also set with Bai Suyuan's post. She stared at it, and saw that Wenhe was wearing a snow-white narrow-sleeved embroidered red plum jacket, tying a smoke-willow embroidered rhododendron blood brocade skirt, and wearing a jasper lotus hairpin on her head.
Silently nodded in his heart, Shuheng sat down with a smile: "What an honor I am to sit at the same table with Mr. Bai's mother and daughter." β
Bai Suyuan immediately smiled and said, "Don't dare, county lord Gao Yi, this is our honor." β
The two of them hurriedly stood up and bowed, because it was not only Shuheng who came, but also Liu Yang, the king of Qin, who was by her side. He had a clean face, didn't say a word, and looked very difficult to get along with, especially when the prince of the county was still committed by his subordinates, Wen and Fu shrank as soon as they met.
Fortunately, this King of Qin did not sit at the table, he sat alone on a carved lacquered chair by the window, his eyes looking out of the window, not as if he wanted to join the conversation. Shuheng was not afraid, not affected by his "majesty and coldness" at all, and sat down with a smile and the two of them.
Shu Heng is not a person who likes to go around in circles and knock on the side, and neither is Wen He, so he simply went straight to the point, and drank a cup of meeting tea, and Shu Heng spoke directly: "I really want to mention this suggestion, you just have to think about it carefully and give me a definite answer." I'm just as impatient as you are. β
Wen He immediately nodded and said, "That's exactly the reason." I'm sure I'm grateful for that kindness. It's just that I heard that this election with relatives is not the same as in the past, and the family will be praised if they voluntarily ask for help, and they will have to go through some training and tests. β
Shuheng nodded: "That's right, after all, the princess of Heqin in the past was in Daxia, even if she was the most unfavored girl in the clan, she was full of pearls, and when she arrived in Beirong, the felt blanket was the dome milk wine and pulp, which was very different from climate to humanities, and it was difficult to adapt, so she washed her face with tears." I'm afraid it won't be able to achieve His Majesty's goal of "promoting the prestige of the country". Therefore, he stabilized the Beirong envoy this time, and he was determined to choose a woman who was agreeable to both parties. β
Wen and Mian Xian contemplative.
Bai Suyuan glanced at her and said, "If you really want to go, then you don't have to worry too much, after all, when the Beirong Division was in Beijing, you were still holding the Lantai Meeting." For the first time in the history of Great Xia, a girl was in power to sit in the village and organize a poetry conference. Do you think about the situation at that time? I remember that there were some Rong people who went to watch. β
She glanced at Liu Yang as if she had not yet done so. Bai Suyuan has already seen that Shuheng is a matchmaker, and it is naturally King Qin who can decide to stay. Wen He has the strength of affinity.
Speaking of the grand occasion of the gathering in the past, it was like the women's version of the Lanting Collection, which had an unprecedented sensation in Great Xia, not to mention ordinary literati, even princes and nobles also went to cheer. It was truly an experience she would never forgetβshe thought it would be the pinnacle of her life, and then it was the end of her life, and then the fall was terrible.
The glint in Wen He's eyes suddenly flickered, and finally nodded vigorously: "I must not be afraid of hardships or anything." I think I grew up, although it was brocade clothes and jade food, but it was also a ten-year cold window. To put it mildly, I'm afraid that among the girls, no one can work harder and more patient than me. β
Shuheng nodded: "I believe it." β
Wen He lowered his eyes and silently looked at the teacup in front of him, in the quiet brown, the girl's face was just youthful. After a while, he finally spoke again: "I used to be the county lord of the county king's mansion, after all, I am the daughter of my parents. There are no parents in the world who are not. Even though I was angry with my mother for not being able to distinguish right from wrong, and complaining about my father's inability to make up his mind, I also watched my mother suffer in the Iron Gate Temple, and watched my father wash his face with tears all day long. They had already been punished. Even if my parents were wrong, they were very good at me. I remember clearly, once I was greedy to play with Jia Min and others to tease the crickets, but my mother smashed my cage, punished me for kneeling, and beat the handboard, my father watched at the time, and did not dare to persuade anything, but secretly came to give me medicine at night and sent me my favorite snacks to coax me. And let me not blame my mother. β
Her voice was choked, and there seemed to be tears in her eyes, but she kept it well after all, and she didn't lose her demeanor.
Shuheng already knew her purpose: "If you go out of the jam and get married, that is a great merit, and you think that by doing so, you can make up for your father's mistakes and make him cheer up again." β
Wen He nodded: "The Holy Dynasty rules the world with filial piety, if I really have this opportunity, I will definitely try it in the book, I am afraid that the saint will also pity me with a heart of benevolence and filial piety." β
Shuheng nodded, and shook his head again. The crime of the prince of the county can be big or small, if it is small, it is to accept bribes and eat kickbacks, and if it is big, it is to threaten national security. The possibility of pardon is still very high - he said that he would be deprived of the title and be invited, but he was not exiled to the military camp and was still in Beijing because the crime could not be convicted. Wen He Ruoruo is really kind, but her father naturally doesn't have to join the army. Even though he has always been a nuisance to the Emperor.
But Duan Yunping, this poisonous woman, it's better not to let it out and endanger others.
Moreover, she is the one who holds the veto power at most. Shuheng smiled and looked at Liu Yangβhe was staring intently at the two magpies flirting on the branches outside the window, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
Everyone's eyes were focused on him, and finally let him come back to his senses, he glanced at Shuheng, swept Wen He up and down, and immediately made a promise: "The prince of the county can be safe, but the princess is difficult to say." β
Wen He was first happy, and then stiff.
King Qin's words are full of words, and as soon as they are spoken, they can almost represent the ending. Bai Suyuan looked at the appearance of the righteous daughter, and immediately frowned and said, "You know, in your house, your mother has always been the master of the house. Your father's soft ears, swaying from side to side, lacking in opinions, and your mother's arrogance and greed are insufficient, which has led to this point. If your father had a good wife who knew how to fear the law of the country and revere life, would the county palace have come to this point? β
Wen He's face suddenly turned pale, and his fists were clenched.
"A good woman benefits three generations, and a poisonous woman can destroy a family." Bai Suyuan's eyes were fixed on Wen He, as if to make her make up her mind: King Qin obviously did not intend to let Duan Yunping go, and he did his best to do his best, and he was afraid that it would be empty. "If your parents are still in one place, it has become a habit for your father to take your mother for nothing, and you are far away and no one mentions it, then who will rescue you if you make a mistake again? Now it's just up to your father to hate him and get rid of your mother. Then he is naturally safe. β
Wen He clenched her silver teeth, she knew that her father was cowardly and rigid, and he was always at the mercy of his mother, but from the last time she went to visit her mother in Tieji Temple, she found that she was very sad to find that her mother didn't think she was wrong at all. If the two of them are still together, it will be a matter of time before my father is exiled and imprisoned again.
But, but: a mother is a mother after all.
When it comes to this, it's pretty much it. Liu Yang was obviously impatient with others grinding and chirping to make him wait, so he immediately got up and left. The action was quite sudden, both of them were startled, and Shuheng also stood up with a smile, saying that he was going to retire, and it was up to their godmother and daughter to discuss it themselves.
After thinking about it, Shuheng gave another hint in the end, and she looked at Wen He: "Your mother's is not so simple, to be precise, it is an instigation of murder and attempted murder." β
Wen He was speechless immediately. Shuheng had already turned the screen with Liu Yang and left.
"Your Highness, Your Highness." Shuheng shouted.
Liu Yang slowed down his pace and let her catch up. Shuheng grabbed his arm very naturally: "Thank you." β
"In a word, what is there to thank for. Wen He is suitable for harmony, this is her own ability. Are your legs okay? It's fast. β
Shuheng immediately smiled: "I rubbed safflower oil and did a massage, and it will be fine soon." β
Liu Yang paused for a moment and said, "You don't have to pay attention to Concubine Li in the future." This woman has lived her whole life and has not grown. As for the Queen Mother, she can get by on the surface. This old lady still has brains, so she won't go too far. β
Shuheng nodded, and when he saw that someone was coming down the stairs to play, he immediately pulled his hand out of the crook of his arm. I was very active just now, and now I am very conscious. Liu Yang glanced at her and didn't speak.
Before going out, he said, "I heard that you have a very chic tea there." β
Shu Heng was surprised: "Your Highness knows?" I remember the last time I soaked you, you didn't like it, you wanted to drink plain water. β
"It's Liu Yan. This girl was obedient, knowing that Chang'an had a good impression of her, so she seized the time to strike while the iron was hot. I saw it last time. She deliberately mentioned that the county lord of Rongyi brought back a batch of small tea from the south, which was very interesting. I thought that since there was a batch, it would naturally not take a salty bamboo shoot, how? Don't let this king see and understand? β
Shuheng is naturally knowledgeable, and he invited people into the house very well-behaved. The Qingfeng courtyard is still as elegant and beautiful as ever, and the room of Shuheng is also full of flowers. Liu Yang didn't treat himself as a guest when he first entered the courtyard, but now he is even more familiar with the road, and after a little inspection, he found that Shuheng put the rosewood high heels he gave on the Baibaoge, and immediately smiled.
The four honeys retreated very consciously and "ill-intentioned". Shuheng had to rely on himself and entertain the guest himself. She opened the cabinet and took out a pine lacquer carved box, in which were neatly placed two rows of grimaceous green beast ear clay pots, all sealed with red cloth, there was a strange mystery.
"Tea, it's all tea in a row. You can taste them all by yourself and drink them all the same. β
Shu Heng was not a quiet woman who liked to stay at home in her past life and this life, she went to Jiangnan for a few years, she walked everywhere, rarely went home, and had a good time, these things are her ordinary accumulation. Traditional culture has its own rarities, take tea as an example, most of them know about tea, but they don't know how many things to make tea, such as Furen tea, which is about Fujian using olive kernels to make tea and drink, salt bamboo shoots sesame wood rhino tea is more interesting, the salt bamboo shoots are salty bamboo shoots, and the rose melon kernels are more eye-opening, and the tea can also be poured with brine.
In her previous life, in the name of "research and academics", she held "β‘β‘" to study, and saw Pan Jinlianwei currying favor with Ximenqing, and brewed a cup of "sesame salt, bamboo shoots, chestnuts, melon kernels, walnut kernels, spring immortality, sea green, swan, rosewood, pouring, marinated Liu An's tongue bud tea." At the beginning, this big sentence only made her inexplicable, and she couldn't understand it at all, but she really went to eat it and found that this thick cup of tea soup was really vulgar and vulgar. As a laywoman, Shuheng can't enjoy the elegance of paying attention to a few flags and a few shots, plum blossoms, snow and old rain, but she is "willing to fall" and is obsessed with the market gas -
Because, it's really delicious! Have a drink in the morning, almost as breakfast, and the mood is beautiful all day long. Think of Pan Jinlian, who has the wind flowing into her bones and her physique scratching waves, "her slender fingers wiped off the water on the white porcelain side, and a thick cup of tea came out." "I'm afraid that if it's not a big official of Simon, I'm going to lose most of my body.
Liu Yang really came to be interested: "Do you like to tinker with these things?" β
"It's not like to tinker, it's just that it's not greedy enough, and when you see it, you collect it all when you see it and think it's interesting." Shuheng beckoned someone to bring the white water: "Which one does Your Highness fancy?" β
Liu Yang untied the red seal and sniffed lightly: "This." β
"Sesame melon seeds, walnut kernels, pouring wood and sparrow tongue? Okay! "Shuheng smiled, without a cup, with a white background jasper lotus small blessing bowl, flattened his sleeves, revealing a snow-white wrist, full of brewing, watching the snow-white foam gently float up and emerge slightly, fingers lightly touched, hold it." Make a bowl of tea and welcome guests. β
Liu Yang raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled.
"Isn't it fun?"
"I think of Zhuo Wenjun who was in charge."
Shu Heng squinted his eyes and smiled eight white teeth: "Okay, if you don't become the king one day, let's go and open a shop to sell tea." With the girl's appearance, it must be fragrant tea Shih Tzu. β
"Hahahaha-" Liu Yang laughed, his princess was always so funny.
