"Erlang, Youzhou is so far away from the capital, you can rest assured that your daughter-in-law will travel so far?" Huangfu looked at Mu Yunting who came to greet him quietly, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes, daring to love this little couple didn't take her words to heart at all!

"Grandmother, it's only five or six days to go back and forth, and I'll be back soon." Mu Yunting smiled disapprerovingly, seeing that there was no trace of joy on Huangfu's face, he hurriedly said, "Grandson thinks that she and her brother have not seen her for many days, and it is reasonable to go to catch up on the old days." ”

"Erlang, I think you are a smart one, and you are confused for a while!" Huangfu simply put the tea bowl in his hand on the table, and said expressionlessly, "Everyone thinks that Shen Ke is no longer alive and has almost forgotten about it, but now, your daughter-in-law is hurrying to Youzhou with Kexin, and you don't want to think about what others will think?" You can't tell people that your daughter-in-law is going to Youzhou to enjoy the mountains and rivers, right? Besides, Youzhou is a border city, and our relationship with the Western Regions is becoming increasingly tense, if there is anything wrong, you can't regret it, anyway, I don't agree with your daughter-in-law going to Youzhou, you can do it!"

"Grandmother, if someone else asks, just say that Li Niang took Kexin back to her parents' house to have a look, and by the way, she went to Youzhou for a walk, and no one would doubt it." Mu Yunting was a little embarrassed, "I'll send more people to follow, and it'll be fine." ”

He knew that now Shen Qingli had already packed his luggage in the house, and he would soon come over to ask the Huangfu clan to resign.

If the Huangfu clan didn't agree, wouldn't she be very embarrassed.

"How do you know it's going to be okay?" Huangfu asked rhetorically, "Don't talk about it." Take the incident of your daughter-in-law entering the palace last time, I still think it will be fine? Who wants to force you to mobilize the third division of the guard to rescue her, Erlang, this is an extraordinary time, and if you don't think about it a little, it will make a big mistake, and at this time, you can't rely on her temperament. ”

"Grandmother......" Mu Yunting wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the Huangfu clan without saying anything, "Don't say it again." If you go with her. I have nothing to say, you are so busy and lacking in skills that I can't let her take this risk alone with her children. If you have an old woman like me in your eyes. Just leave me at home. If you think I'm nosy, then whatever. ”

Mu Yunting had to get up and go back to the house.

"What? Grandmother won't let me go? It's only been five or six days, and I'll be back soon! Shen Qingli was disappointed. Isn't it just going to a secluded state!

"Wanwan, you still listen to your grandmother, don't go to Youzhou, let the peach branches go and see first, stay for a while, I will accompany you again when I have time." Mu Yunting persuaded with kind words, "Besides, grandmother is also worried about your safety, you better stay at home with peace of mind!" ”

"Yes, Second Young Lady, you can listen to Mrs. Tai's advice!" Mama Chu lifted the curtain and walked in, and said with a smile, "Don't hide it from the second young lady, right now Mrs. Tai is looking forward to holding her grandson with all her heart, and she really can't withstand the slightest twists and turns, and the second young lady has to be considerate and considerate of Mrs. Tai." ”

At the mention of the child, Shen Qingli suddenly felt that his head was big, so he had to nod helplessly: "I know, then let Taozhi and Bitao go for me!" ”

After five or six days, Peach Branch and Bi Tao rushed back from Youzhou, both of them were full of joy, especially Peach Branch, although they had seen Shen Ke with their own eyes, they still had some feeling in the clouds, and when they talked about Shen Ke, there were tears in their eyes: "The place where Uncle lives is too remote, and there is no one to serve him, and the whole person has lost a lot of weight, and he has not added any new clothes, and he is still wearing those old clothes...... Even his shoes have broken several holes.

"It's good that people are fine, these are all temporary, as long as my brother stabilizes himself in Youzhou, it will be fine." Shen Qingli's hanging heart was put down, and he took Kexin who was playing on the kang in his arms, and said, "When he settles down, I'll take Kexin to see him again." ”

Taozhi gritted her teeth and knelt down in front of Shen Qingli with a plop: "Young lady, slave maid, slave maid is willing to go to Youzhou to serve the uncle......

Before, only when he died, her heart also died.

Now, he is back from the dead, and she will never leave and be by her side.

Shen Qingli had already guessed her thoughts, and said with a faint smile: "Taozhi, I know your thoughts, I will make a decision on this matter after discussing it with the prince!" Since you are willing to serve by your uncle's side, I will naturally not let you go as a subordinate. ”

"Young lady......" Taozhi understood and blushed, "The slave and maid don't dare to think about it." ”

Bi Tao covered her mouth and snickered.

"Okay, you go down and rest first, I still have something to say to Bi Tao." Shen Qingli said.

Only then did the peach branch retreat.

"Young lady, are you planning to marry the peach branch to your uncle?" Bi Tao smiled with crooked eyebrows.

"I'm right." Shen Qingli glanced at the figure that disappeared behind the door, and smiled, "But it also depends on the fate of the two of them." ”

If Shen Ke had a peach branch to take care of her, she would naturally rest assured.

"In that case, wouldn't Peach Branch become the young lady's sister-in-law?" Bi Tao was shocked.

"As long as they are doing well, my sister-in-law will be my sister-in-law." She wouldn't care about that title anyway.

Seeing that Bi Tao was still immersed in shock, Shen Qingli coughed lightly: "Okay, did you ask about the things I asked you to ask?" ”

If you had gone with you, wouldn't you have come back safely now!

Grandmother just likes to be cranky.

"Uncle said that he has never borrowed money from the Jin Palace, and it is Mr. Situ who has business dealings with the Jin Palace, so the IOU must have been tampered with." Bi Tao said, "Young lady, the uncle has repeatedly explained, if the Jin Wangfu makes trouble with this matter again, the young lady can push it off." ”

"yes, I see." Shen Qingli nodded.

The prince of Jin is still thick-skinned and comes home, and he dares to come to the door to collect debts with a forged IOU, and that Wang Ningxi, who is simply a dog raised by the prince of Jin, dares to say that he is a witness or something, and the two are really wolves.

After another three days, there was bad news from the Jin Palace.

The Jin prince Emperor Fu Ze died due to the poison of the cartilage in his body.

As soon as the news came out. There was a sigh in the palace.

On the day of the palace change, the emperor's uncle King Jin had a meritorious service, and he announced a three-day boycott to show his condolences.

Shen Qingli followed everyone to kowtow and salute, looking at the Jin Palace, which was pulling the white cloth around, and suddenly felt a little separated from the world, thinking of all the shame and uneasiness caused by the first encounter with this person.

Yes.

From now on. No more worrying about where this person will suddenly come out of nowhere. Pestering yourself and never again!

Thinking about it, my heart turned out to be relaxed.

After the ceremony, the ladies were arranged to rest in the side hall.

There was a whisper in the room.

Among the noblewomen of the third rank or more. Shen Qingli is undoubtedly the youngest one. And they came with the Huangfu clan and the Su clan. Of course, he couldn't intervene with the others, but just sat in the corner and quietly watched the ladies pretend to wipe their tears. whispered to each other about the good things of King Jin in the past.

Shen Qingli tugged at the plain cloth on his head, he couldn't cry, it was always okay to keep his head down, right?

"Erlang's daughter-in-law, although you and King Jin have some festivals, but people die greatly, and you still have to do what you should do." Su Shi responded with a clear face, walked over to her and sat down, and reminded in a low voice.

"Mother's words are wrong, although I had some misunderstandings with King Jin before, but on the night of the palace change, King Jin was still kind to me, and I am grateful to King Jin." Shen Qingli replied lukewarmly, "So, there's no need to do anything." ”

"Erlang's daughter-in-law, it seems that you still can't trust your mother after all." The corners of Su's mouth twitched, and he sighed, "I know you have been doubting that when you went to Zhuangzi last year, when you met King Jin, did you think that I arranged all the qiē?" ”

"Isn't it?" Shen Qingli simply said bluntly, "At that time, I had only been married to the Hou Mansion for more than two months, and I had never met the King of Jin, if someone hadn't mentioned me in front of him, how could he deliberately wait for me on the road?" ”

"Erlang's daughter-in-law, you did misunderstand me, the King of Jin has a lot of ears and eyes, who married a bride, he naturally knows everything, and still uses others to ventilate the news?" Su Shi said in a deep voice, "Besides, you are my daughter-in-law after all, if you ruin your reputation, what good will it do me?" ”

"I hope I misunderstood my mother." Shen Qingli said expressionlessly, "I have no intention of going against my mother, if my mother forces me again, then don't blame me for disrespecting my elders." ”

Su Shi's face suddenly sank, and he was about to say something, but he saw a little girl who was all over her body stepped forward, and bowed respectfully to Shen Qingli: "Young Mrs. Shen, the princess is waiting for you in the flower hall, and I also ask Young Mrs. Shen to move." ”

Su Shi was a little puzzled.

What will Princess Jin do when she looks for her?

Could it be that Princess Jin suspected that King Jin was injured in the palace that night?

Shen Qingli got up and left.

Anyway, the King of Jin is dead, and there is no proof of death, even if the Jin Wangfu investigates, what can be found?

Arrived at the flower hall.

But I didn't see Princess Jin.

Huang Fujin, the prince of Jin, and Wang Ningxi, the prefect of Jingzhou, were drinking tea and chatting.

Shen Qingli suddenly understood in his heart.

"Mrs. Shen, I heard that my father still had an outstanding debt with the mansion during his lifetime, so I asked Mrs. Shen to come and ask." Huang Fujin said seriously, "Now that my father's bones are not cold, presumably the young lady will not have another excuse, right?" ”

"Of course not." Shen Qingli said indifferently, "Shizi, although my brother is no longer here, the courtiers still found some clues, as far as the courtiers know, the brother and the King of Jin have no money dealings, so the courtiers feel that this matter is a misunderstanding." ”

"This, how could this be a misunderstanding." Wang Ningxi was anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "It's true that the uncle and the prince are gone, but this witness is still there, and it was indeed the two of them who made the evidence at the beginning, so Mrs. Shen doesn't need to question this." ”

He knew that Huangfu Jin went to the Western Regions a few days ago to look for the Tianshan Snow Lotus, but returned in vain, and he was very depressed, and he always felt that as a son of man, he had not fulfilled his due responsibilities, and always wanted to find something to do to make up for the guilt of King Jin, so he bit this matter.

"Lord Wang, this matter is very important, how can it be confirmed by your one-sided words?" Shen Qingli said coldly, "Speaking of this matter, I am also an outsider, now that the Jin Wangfu wants a debt in front of me, I naturally have the right to screen the merits of this matter, I can't admit this debt as soon as I see the IOU, right?" ”

"Mrs. Shen, as far as I know, my father has given Mrs. Shen enough time to investigate this matter." Huang Fu Jin looked displeased, "Could it be that Mrs. Shen has to let our Jin Wangfu transfer this matter to the official mansion before she stops?" ”

"The courtiers hope that the government will come forward to investigate this matter!" Anyway, it's not the money she owes.

"Okay, then we'll see you in court." Huangfu Jin said angrily.

"The prince, please." Shen Qingli got up and retired.

"Shizi, what do you think of this?" Wang Ningxi was embarrassed.

"She's not afraid of a woman, what are you and I afraid of?" Huangfu Jin snorted coldly, "If you want to owe us the silver of the Jin Palace, there is no door, even if it is in front of the Queen Mother, I must get the silver back." ”

"That's, that's." Wang Ningxi quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead.

When Mu Yunting learned of this, he said to Shen Qingli without thinking: "You don't care about this matter, leave it to me to deal with, even if you tell the Queen Mother, I am not afraid of him." ”

I don't know what Mu Yunting did from it, the Jin Wangfu didn't report the matter to the government, and I didn't hear about the long and short of this matter, so it was over.

In this regard, Mu Yunting just said that he did not come forward in person to deal with this matter, but handed it over to a subordinate in Jingzhou, and as for what to do, he didn't have time to ask in detail.

Shen Qingli was speechless for a while, this is okay!

Because of the death of King Jin and the subsequent Mid-Autumn Festival, the palace did not invite the nobles of the family to the palace for a banquet as in previous years, and the nobles naturally did not dare to celebrate at home.

The Yongding Marquis Mansion is the same, and even the family banquet has not been prepared, and each room just adds a few more dishes.

This year's Mid-Autumn Festival is destined to be silent.

However, the subsequent Double Ninth Festival in early September brought new vitality to the capital.

Scholars and beauties rode horses and cars to Yunshui Lingxiao Temple to climb high and look into the distance.

Early in the morning, the carriage of the Marquis of Yongding also went out of the door and went straight to Lingxiao Temple.

"Erlang's daughter-in-law also went to Lingxiao Temple?" Huangfu said unhappily while cutting flowers and trees with scissors, "This time, the two of them have learned well, and they have learned to cut first and then play." ”

Didn't even come to ask for resignation?

"Mrs. Tai, the young lady is young after all, and it's not like that to keep her in the mansion all the time." Mama Chu persuaded, "This time, the young lady has the son of the world and a large group of people by her side, and she will be fine." ”

"But, I don't know why, as soon as I heard that she was out today, I was a little flustered, you said that nothing would happen to her, right?" Huangfu simply put down the scissors and sighed, "It seems that I am really old, and I know to worry about it." ”

"If Mrs. Tai is not at ease, let Peony follow and take a look." Seeing that the Huangfu clan was preoccupied, Mama Chu hurriedly said. (To be continued......)
