After the death of Empress Mu, how many years can the saint last? Shen Man has this question, and the magnates in the capital have even more. "Some people hope that the saint will live a long life, and he will fish in troubled waters; Some people wish that the saint would die soon and that he would be able to ascend to heaven in one step. Among them, the mood should be the most to the ministers of the East Palace and the princes, as time passes, the former's mood gradually becomes worried, but the corners of the latter's mouth are slightly upturned.

Pengze county magistrate's surname is Liu, his name is wide, he was born in a declining family that is a little better than the Shu people, and he died begging Bai Lai to get close to the Deng family in Nanyang, and worshiped Deng Jiang, a famous man of the Deng family, as a teacher, so that he could get mixed into the head of a county, but he stayed in this place for ten years.

He is timid, he does not dare to scavenge the land, he only dares to accept the filial piety of his subordinates and the local clans, and he also pursues peace and stability in handling things, and stops at the mean. The eldest son of the emperor was exiled to his office, he trembled, did not dare to get close to him, but did not dare to slack off in the slightest, respectfully presented his job land, handed over to Shen Man's rented people to cultivate, and took half of the income. To be precise, if it weren't for Shen Man's insistence, he would have given it away for nothing.

In this kind of illiterate place, it is not easy to find a person who can read and break words, although Liu Kuan's poetry is mediocre, far from Qin Ke's level in this regard, but it is second to none in Pengze County. When Qin Ke is in his spare time, he will also talk to each other about poetry and Taoism, and the two get along quite well.

is such an ordinary little person, since reading the letter of his teacher, he is like a fire in his ass, and he can't sit still for a moment.

Deng Jiang, as Shangshu Zuocheng, is located in the center of power, and he can get the phase in one step, and he is naturally very well-informed. In his letter to his disciples, he wrote that because of the death of Empress Mu, the saint was very depressed for a while, and he had been sick intermittently for several years. Thanks to the careful care of the harem concubines such as Guo Guifei, Li Huifei, Liu Huafei and Chen Xiuyi, his health gradually improved. It's just that at such a sensitive time, the prince is not in a good state, many places have stabbed the basket, words and deeds are quite unscrupulous, everywhere the future king regards himself as a prince, oppresses his subordinates, suppresses his brothers, and provokes the sage to reprimand him several times, and the father and son gradually have signs of disharmony.

As we all know, the sage was not particularly satisfied with the prince's qualifications and temperament, and felt that this son was too arrogant and domineering, and did whatever he wanted. Queen Mu is very doting on her middle-aged son, thinking that she will always be sensible when she is a little older and teach her slowly. Who would have thought that she would die before her son was really sensible and sensible, although there was some layout, but it was not as good as the years of hard work.

Now, the crown prince has no biological mother to protect him, and the eldest brothers are eyeing the throne. However, most of the mothers of these elder brothers are old people given by the first emperor, with old qualifications and high status, and they can always say a word or two in front of the saints. The status of the crown prince, even if it is not in jeopardy, if he continues to indulge like this...... The emperor's affection can last for a day or two, a year or two, or even decades, but in the face of this supreme power, how long can the saint's unconditional tolerance for the crown prince last?

Deng Jiang was cunning and cunning, realizing that the bloody storm seven years ago had not yet ended, and thinking that the area where the emperor's eldest son was located was precisely his disciple as a parent official, lest something really affect him, so he used his power to transfer Liu Kuan to another place. After doing this, he repaired a letter and told Liu Kuan to ask the other party to pack up, wait for the new parents to arrive, hand over the things and the official seal, and set off.

Liu Kuan naturally did not complain about his mentor cutting first and then playing, on the contrary, he was grateful for the preservation of his mentor, almost counting the time with his fingers, looking forward to the arrival of the next unlucky egg.

"Envoy, here, here!"

Seeing the attendant running over panting, Liu Kuan's face was overjoyed, and he asked anxiously: "But the successor envoy is here?" ”

"No, it's not, it's the one next to Zhangjia Village." The waiter whispered, "Their family is here!" ”

Liu Kuan listened, his eyes subconsciously looked under the wide desk, but he realized that the so-called hiding was just a delusion, and it should come sooner or later.

After taking a deep breath, he went out with a bitter face, and did not forget to instruct: "Sue sù lady, remember, be careful, be cautious, and don't promise anything they say." ”

He is really a little too cautious in his mind, and uses the heart of a villain to spend the belly of a gentleman. In fact, Qin Ke heard that Liu Kuan was leaving office and came to say goodbye to him, as for Shen Man...... Qin Wan sat in the cubicle and ate the fruit quietly, the maid knew that she was very well-behaved and had never had an accident, so she couldn't help but take a nap. Seeing this, Qin Wan leaned his ear to the crack in the door and secretly listened to what A-Niang and Mrs. Liu Kuan were saying.

She always felt that during these days, A-Niang's mind was very heavy. asked A-Niang, but A-Niang just laughed and said that she was going to add a little brother to her, but she didn't say anything. As for asking Aya...... Qin Wan, a ghost spirit, has gradually understood that many things have to be said to Aya, as for doing it, it doesn't have to be done according to what he says, anyway, Ayah won't find out, it's very easy to deceive. Although she was reluctant to lie to Aya, she ...... Look at what your mother is going to do, learn a little more, yes!

Obviously, the little girl Qin Wan, who is growing up, finally understands who is in charge of this family of three.

The years and life have added a little wind and frost to Shen Man, but they have not taken away her elegance and calmness at all, even if she is wearing the most ordinary cloth clothes, Shen Man's words and deeds, every move, is still the object of emulation by the daughters of Liu Kuan's family.

"I shouldn't have bothered when I heard that the lady was leaving, but ......" Shen Man smiled slightly and said softly, "I have a request, although I know that I am presumptuous, I have to come." ”

Liu Kuan's wife Yan got her husband's advice, cheered up early, and didn't dare to slack off, hearing Shen Man say this, even if she was very convinced of Shen Man in her heart, she was almost obedient to Cheng Dù, and now she only said vaguely: "Where do you say, I ...... It may not be able to help you much. ”

"Where, this ......" Shen Man's face turned red, and he said with some embarrassment, "It's just a matter of the lady's words." ”

Yan didn't pick it up, didn't pick it up, racked his brains and thought about it for a long time before he asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Shen Man smiled, quietly waiting for Yan to find a reason, and when he heard the other party say this, he gently touched his lower abdomen, which was gradually revealed, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were filled with maternal love, and he said softly: "The lady has also seen it, my body is a little inconvenient." The inkstone girl next to the lady is gentle and smart, and she likes me very much, I don't know how the lady ...... Can I cut my love? ”

When Yan heard this, it was really three souls that went to two souls, and seven souls lost six souls.

Although she is not shrewd, she is not stupid, Shen Man's words have been said about this, this servant girl asks for back, do you still need to think about which master to serve?

Liu Kuanqian told him to take care of the Wang's family, and it was absolutely impossible to have a slightly deeper relationship. And this gift of a woman is obviously the most undesirable - if the concubine sent is favored, it will undoubtedly offend the princess; If the concubine sent is not favored, but has nothing to do with Qin Ke, and is branded as "the emperor's eldest son", it will be even more impossible to steal chickens and rice. In short, this woman must not be sent, but directly refused...... It doesn't work either. After all, who knows if their family will turn over one day? The bloodline is there, offending a prince in vain, don't say that Liu Kuan can't resist such consequences, even his mentor Deng Jiang doesn't have the courage to say that he dares to take it.

At the critical moment, Yan finally clevered once, only to see her face embarrassed, and replied: "The envoy is about to leave his post, and he can't leave with so many maids, so after we discussed, we decided to let all the servants from Peng Ze go home." Once the promise has been made, there is no reason to regret it, although Yanxiang is still working in the Liu family, he is already a good family, this matter is ...... It's rude, but I really can't do it. ”

Shen Man smiled and said lightly, "It's okay." ”

Qin Wan was lying on the wall of the cubicle, almost scratching the wall.

As she got older, even if she couldn't understand the deep meaning of Shen Man's words, she could understand that it didn't seem to be a good thing. After getting out of the car and entering the house, Qin Ke took the first step, and when the mother and daughter were alone, Qin Wan couldn't help it, so he asked: "A-Niang, what kind of inkstone do we have to let ...... Come to our house? ”

Seeing Qin Wan's face full of curiosity, Shen Man smiled lightly, touched his daughter's hair, and said gently: "Silly child, next time you eavesdrop, don't ask." ”

"Because it's A-Niang!" Qin Wan said without hesitation, "Why can't you ask?" ”

Shen Man's heart warmed, and his voice became softer: "Bao'er is really a good boy." ”

Qin Ke opened the door of the main house, heard the mother and daughter whispering behind him, couldn't help but turn around, and asked with a smile: "Manniang, Bao'er, what little secret do you have?" ”

Shen Man pursed his lips and smiled without saying a word, Qin Wan made a big smile at Qin Ke and didn't speak.

Qin Ke didn't say anything, but he was very curious in his heart, after all, in his heart, his wife and daughter never hid it from him, what happened this time? What can't I tell him?

Pregnant women's sleep time is always uncertain, while his wife was asleep, Qin Ke secretly pulled his daughter and asked in a low voice: "Bao'er, what did Manniang say to you?" ”

Qin Wan thought about it, and felt as if her mother hadn't said that she couldn't say it, and her attitude didn't look like she wanted her to keep it secret, so she asked in a low voice: "A-Niang said to Mrs. Liu Yuanjun that she wanted to ask for the inkstone girl next to her, I heard it secretly!" Then I asked Ah Niang, and Ah Niang said...... Don't ask stupidly if you overhear, but don't tell me why. ”

Speaking of this, she lowered her face and said sullenly: "Why doesn't A-Niang sue me, you must come to Yanxiang!" ”

Qin Ke coughed dryly, not knowing what to say.

Although the eldest son of the emperor is not very enthusiastic about ** things, he used to be surrounded by all beauties and there is no shortage of women. Today, I look at my wife every day, although I feel warm every day, and I look forward to the arrival of a new life with joy, and occasionally I ...... It's a little bit of a pity.

He didn't expect his wife to be so understanding and properly arranged. In this way, although I don't have this kind of thought, I seem to be a little ...... In front of my daughter, words such as I want to relieve ** for a change of taste, I really can't say it!
