282 Grace

"What's wrong with that!"

The sisters were settled.

So he went hand in hand to find the third wife to take leave.

The wives and grandmothers all gathered in the flower hall of the long room to talk.

As soon as the girls said what they meant, the third wife, who had a beautiful mole the size of a grain of rice on the corner of her left lip, smiled.

There are only two brothers in the three mansions, Shen Xin and Shen Yan, and the people are even thinner than Shen Guanyu's. Of course, it is nothing that the people are thin, the important thing is that there are no talents among the children, and the hope is still in the people, but it is a pity that the essence of the Shen family over the past hundred years is in the Yan branch, and although the brothers in the side branches are also very motivated and excellent, no one can compare with Shen Guanyu in the end.

For example, if Shen Xian is alive, it will be Shen Xian who will inherit these essences, even if there is a person as talented as Shen Mi, after all, the future will have to rely on himself.

In this way, it is very important to maintain a close relationship with the descendants.

What's more, now Shen Guanyu and Shen Mi are both favored ministers of the emperor. As the houses that are not as powerful as them, they naturally have to try to cling to them.

The third wife likes Shen Yi's atmosphere, and knows that Shen Yan is Shen Mi's heart, even if she strictly controls her granddaughter on weekdays, but at the moment, she doesn't say that Shen Chan stayed to make wine for her sisters, that is, to stay and play, she also has to agree. At the moment, he said: "This is not anywhere else, how can I not allow it?" It's just that I get along with my sisters, and I also put away your stinky temper and let my sister have some. ”

Shen Chan is a few months younger than Shen Yi, and the sister in this sentence naturally refers to Shen Yan.

Hua's couldn't hear that this was self-humility, so he smiled and said: "Sister Chan'er speaks and acts very decently, and Su Ri is the most disciplined, but she doesn't lose half a point to our Sister Yi'er, where will there be any stinky temper?" The third aunt carefully broke the little girl's heart. I would welcome her to teach her sister often. ”

The third lady smiled: "There is no such thing as you talking." Sister Yan has to look good, to have rules, I heard that her pen writing even Brother Yao praised, there is not only one kind of flower in the spring, this is not a demure character, why not restrain her to be that wood beauty? ”

"Third grandmother, you are so discerning!" Shen Yan rushed over and grabbed the third wife's neck.

Hua stroked his forehead and looked at the sky: "It's only been a long time since Miss pretended." This immediately revealed the original form of Sun Monkey! ”

The third lady and the others all laughed.

Shen Yao's wife, Su Shi, pulled Shen Yan over. smiled and said: "If there is such a likable grandson monkey in the world, I would like to raise one!" ”

Su only gave birth to one son, and now they are all seven years old. There is no news of a second child yet.

The fifth lady smiled from the side: "What the third sister-in-law said just now is right, although the girl in our family doesn't say that she will go to the golden branches and jade leaves in the palace, but she has to count them in the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military families, and it is indeed first-class." The old lady of the house is going to have a birthday in October. So a while ago, I took several nieces and granddaughters of my mother's family to Beijing to play.

"Their young lady has had a few acquaintances with me, and she prepares new clothes for the girls. So he specially invited me over to ask how our girls dress up on weekdays? The one who asked carefully was as good as our family. It's a pity that our family is full of kids, so I have to say it according to their preferences. ”

Although everyone has seen the world. But when they were talking in their own family, they all laughed when they heard it.

Ji said: "Listening to what the fifth aunt said, this family doesn't have a young lady?" ”

"Mademoiselle, yes. But the eldest is only three years old, and he can't compare. The fifth lady was holding tea. In the usual gentle tone of the southerners.

The topic of everyone shifted from their own girls to the heads of various families in Beijing.

Shen Yan'er listened to it for a long time, and when she saw that there was nothing to do with them at all, she glanced at each other, bypassed the floor-to-ceiling palace lamp covered with Bisara lampshade from under the curtain, and quietly went out.

Shen Chan is like Shen Yi, she rarely goes out, and Shen Mansion only comes once a year at most, this time she can stay for a few days and then go back, and she is very happy, even Fang Cai's worry about not brewing flowers and wine has turned into a strong interest in new attempts.

The luncheon was decent, everyone chatted about homely things, and there was nothing to say.

The next sister went to the library to look for all kinds of related books, because when they ordered their subordinates to prepare utensils at noon, they were actually heard by Shen Kui and Shen Rui, and heard that Sister Chan of Sanfu would actually brew fragrant flower wine, and the two of them privately summed it up, so they looked for Shen Yan and asked Shen Chan to brew a few more at the same time, otherwise it would be a waste of this opportunity.

So Shen Chan also made chrysanthemum wine and rose wine in addition to this, but all the flowers they could see, let her have one of each.

Fortunately, these are just a few more sets of stoves at the same time, otherwise Shen Chan may have to go home on the spot.

As soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival passed, there were several autumn rains one after another.

When the rain stopped, the ginkgo trees in the yard turned yellow by half.

While Shen Yan was busy making wine, the court received a military report from the northwest that Geltai and Batel had defeated the old Mongol king in early September, and the territory of Eastern Liao began to sweep the tail, but as everyone expected, Geldai had also amassed troops and set up camp with Batel.

The shape shì is in front of him, the emperor has been a little anxious recently, although I don't know if he has sent a secret letter to the northwest again, but the military department has recently stopped chasing horses from the various Taifu Temples. Battle and Gertai are not weak in both sides, but the victory or defeat between them will not be so decided, if Da Zhou does not intervene, then at least next spring and summer will have a result.

Of course, this is still a relatively optimistic speculation.

And if Da Zhou intervenes - this is almost impossible, because these two are not comparable to the dark clouds, and the dark clouds can't do anything without the backing of the big Zhou, but Geltai and them are different. If the original strategy is used to buy one of Gertai and Battle, there is a good chance that he will take the opportunity to set foot in the Central Plains.

Even if they don't, it would be a fatal thing for them to propose the reopening of the horse market at this time.

Therefore, the emperor has been in a bad mood recently, and after discussing with the cabinet and the six ministries several times in succession, he simply set the day of the autumn hunt.

The date is set for September 16, which seems to be more than half a month, but before that, many things have to be prepared in advance. For example, the guards of the palace, the personnel of the entourage, and the procedures for submitting important matters in the court and China for a few days, of course, many of these have precedents, but the entourage must be carefully considered no matter what.

There was a hunt in the spring last year, and that time was a temporary initiative of the emperor, and it was only two days to go.

Autumn hunting is different, the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty does not enjoy the summer vacation, goes to the paddock autumn hunting for a few days, and by the way, he relaxes in the palace, even if it is to treat himself. So the problem comes, you have to bring some useful people for a few days, concubines, it should have been discussed by the emperor and queen, but now that the queen is connected to the disease, she can't go, and who to send will naturally be decided by the emperor.

The king of Liao became the king of the country last month, and only the king of Zheng and the king of Chu remained in the capital, and these two people are bound to follow.

Secondly, Zhu Zhifei was in charge of the government with Fang Wenzheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Guo Yunze, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Xu Jingfang of the Ministry of Households, and Yu Gang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Liu Yaze, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, who drove out of Beijing. Among the rest of the personnel, they were accompanied by the children of the nobles who had titles in the mansions, as well as some nobles who did not hold important positions.

When this issue was discussed, Chen Yude, the servant of the Taifu Temple who was in charge of registering the horses, said: "Wei Guogong is not in Beijing now, and the eldest son Han Ji has not yet been sealed, so I don't know how the Han family will determine the candidate?" ”

The emperor groaned. In previous years, Wei Guogong went in person, and Han Ji accompanied him last year, but that time it was not official. He said: "Although he has not been entitled, the old Duke of Wei and the first emperor are brothers with different surnames, and I have to give this grace anyway." ”

Chen Yude said yes. Zhu Zhifei said again: "I don't know who Wenchen wants to be graced with this time?" "Qiu Hunt didn't specifically appoint Wenchen to serve as a driver, but after Shen Mi accompanied him last year, it was obvious that this question was very necessary.

"In addition to the necessary positions of the various yamen, bring the top three in the new department, the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and the priest of the country." The emperor had obviously thought about it a long time ago, and then added: "Let Shen Mi go over there." ”

Zhu Zhifei bowed slightly, and said, "Can the Metropolitan Procuratorate ask someone to accompany you?" Shen Guanyu has made great contributions to presiding over the Spring Festival this spring, and it is not too much to reward him for this grace. ”

The emperor glanced at him slightly, looked ahead again, and said, "No need, just go for a few days." ”

The ministers bowed their heads and dispersed.

The king of Chu did not intervene during the whole process, and after leaving the Qianqing Palace, he stood beside the jade fence and looked at the palace, and suddenly turned around and entered the harem.

Concubine Shu is also busy with the itinerary, every autumn hunt she is with her without exception, this time the queen is not going, the things in the harem will fall on her. Although there were a lot of trivial matters, she obviously enjoyed it, while directing the palace maid to arrange her clothes and jewelry, and on the other hand, dealing with the concubines who came to beg for her.

The arrival of the king of Chu obviously relieved her of the siege.

She dragged him to the apse and sighed: "I hate that I can't directly replace me to serve His Majesty, there is such a good thing, I will do it too." Saying that, he lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and sneered: "I really don't know what else they have to fight for, Your Majesty is nearly fifty years old, and now that you brothers are adults, even if you give birth to a prince, can you still climb on your head?" ”

The king of Chu has always been silent about these palace disputes, so when he heard this, he smiled and handed her a dragon eye, and said: "In the future, these things will be decided by the queen, and the concubines in the harem will have to go to a few more or less." But this year, the queen is not here, and the mother concubine will definitely not arrange so much. In this way, isn't it a little stuffy for seven or eight days? ”

Concubine Shu paused with the dragon's eye, immediately lost her good face, and said, "You mean that I have to be like the queen, in order to show generosity, bring five or six people with me?" ”

King Chu smiled: "The child just said that the wild place is afraid of being boring, does it mean that the mother concubine can't get along with him?" (To be continued)
