Shen Yan had no choice but to stand up again and follow.
E Shi smiled and watched her approach, and said to Duchess Rongguo: "I heard that a girl was married to Lord Shen's mansion a while ago?" ”
Duchess Rongguo said as she walked, "Isn't it? The eldest girl in their family married the Xie family in Jiangnan as a young grandmother. Although it is far away, it complements each other when it comes to others. ”
E nodded with a smile, glanced at Shen Yan, and said, "Speaking of which, our family Ji'er is also discussing marriage, and I have had a headache about this matter recently." Ji'er hasn't gone out these days, and he was dragged by his father to talk about it. In the end, he is the prince of the world, and we have to listen to his opinion. If he is optimistic, we will not disobey him. ”
Duchess Rongguo regarded Shen Yan as a child and did not avoid her. But Shen Yan was beating the drum in his heart, judging from what Han Ji said before, E's knew that he wanted to marry her, even so, E's words in front of her seemed a little deliberate.
She intuitively had something to say, so she looked at her nose and nose and heart, looking like she had nothing to do with herself.
"That's nature." Duchess Rongguo said with a smile, "Ji'er is young and talented, and he can't find fault in all aspects, and the people who come to ask for relatives are like carp crossing the river, if you don't let him take the idea himself, it's strange if you don't pick your eyes." Fortunately, our sincerity and the love between us and the spirit girl at the beginning made me worry a lot less. ”
Eshi sat down with her on the cloister and said with a smile: "Ji'er also has good cousins, although he is naughty on weekdays, he is still quite measured in front of his sisters." When he was a child, he also had a quarrel with my brother's second girl. At that point, we all laughed at them. ”
Shen Yan was quite bored when he heard this. The E's background and upbringing are impeccable, but they have always refused to let go of Han Ji. But then again, if she had met such a husband - she would definitely not be angry with a child, in the end, it would have been better to poison Wei Guogong directly.
From this point of view, she can sympathize with the E family from the standpoint of a woman, but from the standpoint of Han Ji's side, she can't forgive a person who poisoned an innocent baby no matter what, regardless of whether Han Ji is a descendant of King Chen or the illegitimate son of Wei Guogong. She didn't want to keep the child. Even if he doesn't agree to raise him, he can't be wronged for life.
She didn't know if Han Ji had mentioned the marriage proposal to her family, but from the fact that the E family was mentioning Han Ji and the girl of the E family so openly and secretly, it was obvious that she intended to hit her with this. so that she could believe that Han Ji was acting ambiguously with Miss Ejia. Don't look at this clumsy method. But for a normal twelve or thirteen-year-old little girl who doesn't experience the world. Often, it works.
She just smiled and continued to sit quietly listening to them.
Seeing that her face remained unchanged, E Shi was secretly surprised in his heart. Han Ji ran to Qilin Fang from time to time, and Gu Zhicheng's father and son were in the back camp for a month, if he hadn't gone for Shen Yan, he would have seen the hell. But he is like this, this girl should have an attitude, her indifference now, is she not clear enough about what she said, or was she insightful?
She looked at Shen Yan again, after all, it was not good to provoke again.
Duchess Rongguo smiled and nodded to the two women passing by, and turned around and said, "If there is affection between cousins, it is naturally good." If you don't have that meaning, you don't have to force it, in the end, you still want their husband and wife to be harmonious, and the house is peaceful, so that a family can be called peaceful and blessed. ”
"That's right." Eshi nodded.
was chattering, but two noble ladies came over at the other end, stopped in front of them with a smile and said: "The two ladies were originally here, and the queen mother was eating tea in the water pavilion, and I didn't see you, I thought I had gone to Yuhua Palace!" "It's two low-level women of the fifth grade.
Duchess Rongguo then stood up: "Then go over." ”
When I arrived at the Water Pavilion, there was laughter and laughter, it turned out that many women had come over, and there were also many young noblewomen, seeing Shen Yan beside the two duchess and duchesses, they also took the opportunity to look at it. The Queen Mother smiled: "I said why did the wild goose girl disappear, it turned out to go out with you, and said that her mother didn't come today, and she was only afraid of being bored, and wanted to introduce her to a few sisters." ”
Seeing the Queen Mother like this, Concubine Shu smiled and beckoned: "The goose girl can't come yet." ”
The familiarity in the words seems to be very close in the past.
The E family looked at him from the side, and with previous doubts, he did not speak, but there was a humane next to him: "Concubine Shu and Miss Shen are in love." ”
Concubine Shu laughed, took Shen Yan's hand and said, "Last year in the palace, I didn't let her talk with me. He turned his head to look at Shen Yan again: "You can see your brother King Chu?" He doesn't talk about you less. ”
Concubine Shu's voice was really not small, and everyone in the audience, including the Queen Mother E, and the Duchess of Rongguo, came to see it.
The Queen Mother was slightly stunned, and even the Duchess Rongguo frowned, what did Concubine Shu mean by saying this to the little girl's family in front of so many people? implies that the king of Chu has a deep personal relationship with Shen Yan? She looked at Shen Yan, but because she didn't know the inside story, she didn't speak.
The E family looked at Shen Yan more and more meaningfully. Although she does not participate in court politics, as a woman standing on the cusp of the storm, she always has a keen sense, and the situation in front of her clearly shows that the Shen family is a fragrant bait, can Concubine Shu do this to win over the Shen family? It turned out that in addition to Han Ji wanting to marry Shen Yan, the King of Chu also had this meaning.
She shook her fan, and the corners of her mouth suddenly raised.
Shen Yan had already scolded Concubine Shu at this time in her heart.
In front of so many people, what does the King of Chu often mention her, and the brother of the King of Chu, is this Cheng Xin taking advantage of Hua's absence to bully her? She sneered quietly, and said in a voice of almost the same size: "Back to Niangniang's words, I didn't see it, I was scared by the prince in the palace last time, and now I often have nightmares, the prince mentions me, dare to ask, but you still want someone to catch me?" ”
Except for the Queen Mother, none of the people present knew that there was such a thing, even if the E family heard about it from the Duchess of the Protectorate, their attention was all on Han Ji and Shen Yan at that time, and they did not listen carefully to what was happening. But right now, Shen Yan's words are clearly revealing the bottom of King Chu, a prince will actually make someone arrest her, no matter what, Concubine Shu's face can be regarded as being beaten.
But her faint words are both true and false, and people can't catch her frivolous handle, after all, Concubine Shu is also in front of her own inappropriate words, isn't it?
However, when Concubine Shu heard her say this, her face was still ashamed.
Now the king of Chu and King Zheng are in the stage of discussing marriage, and it is because of the matter of the palace that she did not dare to propose to the emperor to ask the Shen family for the time being, and today she finally seized this opportunity to whitewash the peace, and by the way, she went out to give everyone a little talk, but she didn't expect to be stabbed through the door by this dead girl!
In order to hide this discomfort, she laughed slowly: "I don't care about your children's lawsuits." I wanted to spy a few more words, but I also knew that she was powerful, but I didn't dare to do it, but I looked at her deeply, smiled and turned my face away.
How did the people present next to him know Shen Yan's confidence, seeing that Concubine Shu no longer paid attention to her, they thought that Shen Yan had offended her, and there were always so many people who secretly looked at the Shen family and their eyes were red, and they would be happy in secret when they saw this.
Duchess Rongguo heard that Concubine Shu's words were deliberate, and she also knew that it was Concubine Shu who didn't dare to offend people at the moment, and she didn't dare to say anything more when she knew that she was wrong, so she became more and more disapproving, so she said to Shen Yan: "You go out for a walk, this child doesn't go out much on weekdays, and it is rare to enter the palace, so the Queen Mother will sell me face and let her go out for a walk." ”
The Queen Mother smiled and waved her hand, her eyes swept over Concubine Shu's face, and she was in a trance with a hint of coldness.
Shen Yan took this scene in his eyes, and Xie En went out.
She entered the palace only to cope with errands, and didn't want to conflict with anyone at this juncture, she won the concubine, the concubine may be settled after the autumn, if she loses to the concubine, she is unwilling, and she has a loophole for others to drill. No matter how you can't get anything good, it's good to see it naturally.
Just about to go to find Mrs. Hua and Chen, I went out to the outside of the garden.
The Eshi here took all the changes of everyone into their eyes, and when they saw her go out, they also gave Xiuqin a look, and asked her to follow. And the topic here turned to the children of each family without surprise, and many of the women who brought their daughters in the seat began to compete in a more subtle way, not only to show the queen mother and the concubine, but also to marry into the prince's mansion to be a prince and wife if you can't marry the royal family.
Before coming out today, the E family instructed Xiuqin to act carefully, it was an accident to meet Shen Yan, originally her attention was focused on the women who were shortlisted for the conditions given to her by Mama Ning, but now that she found that Shen Yan can repeatedly seek good fortune and avoid evil, it is not as unworthy as she originally thought, so she naturally has to pay more attention.
Shen Yan out of the garden, to the east to Yuhua Palace, the scenery along the way is excellent, stop and go, I don't know how many turns, suddenly arrived at the palace with the word tablet, the stone tablet in front of the door is engraved with the three words of Bilan Palace, and the lintel and the door are all the handwriting left by the famous people of the previous dynasty.
Just as he was stopping to look, suddenly a voice came from behind him: "Yan'er? ”
The tail of this voice was slightly raised, with the indispensability of being in a high place, Shen Yan turned around, only to see King Chu standing in the door with bright eyes, a face that looked like a concubine showed an unconcealable interest, and the corners of his lips were really shallow as when he saw him most of the time.
Shen Yan didn't expect to avoid Concubine Shu but meet him here again, remembering Concubine Shu's sentence "Brother King Chu" before, and then listening to him call himself so affectionately, he was secretly displeased, so he nodded slightly: "Hello prince." (To be continued......)
