There is no other person in this family, and the sons Song Ying and Song Wei are too young, and later a concubine and a concubine naturally can't participate in these, and he is only a fourth-grade official, and he can't raise any diners, but there are a few people in the court who are good in private, and this kind of thing is extremely sensitive and not suitable for publicity, so except for their mother and daughter, he can't find anyone to talk about it.

Mrs. Song also read, and her ancestors in the family were all officials, but she couldn't talk about a prestigious family. When she was young, she mixed in the palace of the official eunuch, and the water in the court was too deep to wade, but these routines were also thorough, and she stood up when she heard the words: "According to what you say, are you favored by the queen mother and King Zheng?" ”

Song Ping was also surprised.

Song Huan wrinkled his eyebrows and exhaled: "Both of them are in urgent need of manpower, the King of Chu can already start operating when he opens the mansion first, but King Zheng will have to wait until next year, I think it will not only be me next, but many people in the court will become their targets." It's a gamble, you win the bet, you win the game, and if you don't, you have to think you're unlucky. ”

"What about you? Have you thought about it? Mrs. Song asked with some eagerness.

"Am I not worried?" Song Huan angrily.

Mrs. Song was silent, but there was a hint of excitement in her flickering eyes.

What a shameful thing it is to be favored by the queen and King Zheng! Song Huan is the third elder of the Song family, with two elder brothers above and a younger brother below.

She has been married to the Song family for 14 years, and she has long forgotten what grace looks like in the past ten years, and every time she enters the palace to meet her, she can only follow other wives according to her rank and bow silently, if Song Huan is appreciated and reused by the queen......

She couldn't think about it!

There is now only one King Zheng under the queen's knees, and what she did was naturally to push him to the throne! The queen is much stronger than the concubine, at least the majority of the court and the central government now support the establishment of the concubine, and the queen has always been virtuous and dignified, the emperor will naturally push the boat to establish King Zheng in the end, and now he is so fond of the concubine and does not establish the king of Chu, isn't it obvious?

And when King Zheng becomes the emperor, Song Huan will definitely soar, at least it will not be a problem to be promoted to a first or second grade at that time, in that case, wouldn't she become a first-class person who can often enter the palace to talk to the nobles? What a decent thing that would be!

Thinking like this, she was so excited that she couldn't help herself, and tried to persuade her several times, but her courage was dispelled by his gloomy face.

Finally, seeing that Song Ping was still on the side, he pulled her over, held her shoulder, and sighed: "I have long known that your father must not be a thing in the pool, when you were born, the monk who passed by said that you will be a rich and noble life in the future, and now it seems that it is gradually coming true." ”

Song Ping spends the most time with her mother every day, and there has long been an extraordinary tacit understanding between mother and daughter, how can she not hear what Mrs. Song is thinking now? Her own heart is actually pounding, now that King Zheng and King Chu are fighting for the crown prince, if Song Huan helps King Zheng succeed in winning the prince, what an exciting thing it would be!

It is true that the words of the monk in Mrs. Song's mouth are not credible, but it is always a good thing that Song Huan can have the opportunity to develop.

At least after he was promoted, she can also be among the famous ladies in Beijing, and she no longer has to be ranked behind the ladies, she Song Ping has no shortage of appearance and brains, although she does not say that she wants to be above many people, at least she can easily repel a large number of ladies who claim to be beautiful and intelligent, but in fact they are mediocre in appearance and intelligence.

God, is this reaching out to give her a chance?

She glanced back at Mrs. Song, then walked to Song Huan's side and said, "Why is my father so anxious? In my opinion, King Zheng is not necessarily going to lose, since his father has already offended King Chu, and he has already understood that at the moment, he should not come down, I am afraid that even King Zheng will be offended. The left and right are offending people, so it is better to simply help King Zheng, so that the queen can remember your goodness. ”

Song Huan was actually inclined to agree to Yu Ying.

It's just that you have to think about whether there are any things that are not well thought out, at this time the opinions of others are still very important, a little word to his heart can have a huge effect, he heard Mrs. Song mention Song Ping's fortune-telling when he was already a little moved, and then heard Song Ping's persuasion, the heart of King Zheng, the queen of obedience, was already jumping alive.

"You all think I should say yes?"

"Of course!" Mrs. Song couldn't help but rejoice: "The emperor appreciates the master, this is the dignity of our family, and now there is only one word for the matter of seizing the prince, and the king of Chu is just relying on the grace of the concubine, and the concubine is not young anymore, there are so many beauties in the harem, and there will be fullness from time to time, who knows how long the emperor will spoil her?"

"When she is old and decrepit, maybe the emperor doesn't have to think about it, so he directly condemns King Zheng."

Song Huan couldn't help but nod when he heard this, King Zheng was born orthodox, although he was an heir, he was also a righteous son-in-law, no matter how he had the signboard of his grandson, he was much better than King Chu, from this point of view, he really had no reason to be entangled.

However, this is the woman's opinion, and he needs to think about it again.

The sun is getting thicker, and the lights are on.

Just after dinner, Shen Mi put on his clothes and went to the study, Shen Mi took a plate of autumn pears brought by Hua, and also went to Mo Juxuan.

When she entered the door, she took a pear and nibbled on it, and looked at Shen Mi at the end of the bookcase: "The master has returned." ”

Shen Mi looked at the book in his hand without lifting his eyelids, "I know." ”

Shen Yanka took a bite of pears and said, "If you don't care about it, how will things develop?" ”

"How can it develop?" Shen Mi flipped through the book and said casually: "They don't have conclusive evidence that the King of Chu is suspected of bullying the king, and the second is that there is evidence, and it is impossible for the master to tease him for this, and since the King of Chu wants to do this in secret, he must have already left a bottom with the emperor, maybe he has already said through the mouth of the concubine that someone may target him with this."

"The old man can predict these things, how can he still do them?"

Now that things don't matter much to him, he is slow to speak.

Shen Yan saw that he had great confidence in Shen Guanyu in his words, and couldn't help but say, "Then if they want to reverse, what will they do?" ”

"I don't know!" Shen Mi glanced at her.

At this time, lightning flashed outside the window, and several thunders flashed, and rain began to fall in the sky.

The sound of the rain made the roof tiles crackle, and Shen Yan was afraid that the rain would wet the upper of his shoes after a while, so he didn't dare to stay longer, so he beckoned Fu Niang to pick up the lantern and prepare to go back to the room.

When I walked to the door, I suddenly walked in with a rain powder, thinking that I didn't expect her to be here, and I was stunned when I saw her, and then I bowed my head and saluted.

Shen Yan recognized it as Lin Quan from Yaori Hall, and his heart moved, and he couldn't help but say, "What's the matter with you?" ”

Lin Quan saluted Shen Mi in the house again, and then said: "Back to the second master, the second girl, the old man made an appointment with the old man of Zhuge to go to Zhufu to play chess at night, but with such a heavy rain, his rheumatism leg hurt again, and he was lying in bed and could not go to the appointment, so he sent a small one to pass the word to the second master, and asked the second master to go to Zhufu for a trip and make a compensatory trip to the old man." ”

Shen Yan looked back at Shen Mi.

Now this kind of thing Shen Guanyu rarely alarms him, and he usually calls Shen Xuandai to go. Suddenly, there is a word to run errands, which is inevitably surprising. Shen Mi frowned and paused, and stood up: "Isn't the fourth master in the house?" ”

Lin Quan said: "The fourth master is changing the manuscript on the orders of the master, and the master said that the old man of the pavilion is the first assistant, and it is already disrespectful to him, if the second master can go in person, it will be more sincere." ”

Shen Mi paused, and then said, "Got it." ”

Lin Quan retired and left.

Shen Mi here instructed Ge Zhou to prepare the car.

Shen Yan was not in a hurry to go back to the room again, he changed his clothes with him back to the main room like a fart, and sent him to the second gate with Huashi to get into the carriage, and then went back to the room.

The thunderstorm rumbled, and if you went to bed, it was too early, and the second was that the rain was so loud that you couldn't sleep, so I lit incense and sat in front of the window to write. The door was pushed open, and a gust of wind blew the lights in the glass cover flashed, and it was Qing Dai who walked in with a basket of wet and golden citrus, and couldn't help but put her pen down: "Where did the oranges come from?" ”

Qing Dai said: "Lu Yushi went to Lingnan on an errand and came back, brought back several baskets of oranges, and just came to visit the house, so he brought a basket with our master." The lord asked each room to take some. ”

Shen Yan raised his head when he heard this: "Lu Yushi is here?" ”

Qing Dai said: "The master is talking to Lu Yushi in the study." As he spoke, he put the basket on the table, wiped the water on the orange with a dry cloth, and peeled one for Shen Yan. It's very sweet to look at, girl, taste it. ”

Shen Yan's face was full of surprise. Lu Silan's father is now Shen Guanyu's subordinate, and it is common for him to come back from an errand. But didn't Shen Guanyu commit rheumatism and was lying in bed to apply medicine? Rheumatic pain is very unbearable, since he can't even go to Zhuzhu in a carriage, how can he go from the room to the outer study to talk to Lu Yushi?

Shen Guanyu is lying?

But why did he lie? Zhu Zhifei is the head of the court, and Shen Guanyu has a decent relationship with these elders in the court, since he has made an appointment with him, he has no reason to deliberately lose his trust, and he is not going to go now, but instead supports Shen Mi to go to the Zhujia family in the rain to apologize, is it possible that he has any secrets to talk about with Lu Yushi?

She asked Qing Dai, "Who went to the room to get the oranges?" ”

Qing Dai said: "It's the slave who went." ”

"Then the old man and Lu Yushi are talking in the study, have there been any people who have avoided anything?" She asked.

"Where?" Qing Dai pinched the orange peel into a little bit and threw it into the lampstand, and soon a fresh orange fragrance wafted out of the air, "The door of the outer study is wide open, and the attendants are standing at the door." When the slave maid went, he also heard Lu Yushi talking about what he had seen in the south, and when the slave and maid left, they were still talking about the inkstone in Duanzhou, so why should they avoid it? ”R1152
