The smile on Shen Mi's face finally came back, he stood at the door with his hands folded, and said in a loud voice: "Brother Zhicheng, slow down, I still have some trivial matters here, please lead Han Shizi into the main courtyard to talk by the way." ”
The group on the other side of the threshold looked back.
Wei Guogong didn't expect that Han Ji couldn't wait to get close to Shen Mi before he entered the door, so he didn't care about him.
Hearing Shen Mi's shout, he looked at Han Ji who was standing under the door with his lips pursed and silent, and guessed what was going on, and looked at the elders of the pavilions, so he beckoned to Han Ji and Yan Yue: "Second Master Shen must be very busy today, why don't you come over to meet Shen Yushi?" ”
Shen Mi has never dealt directly with Wei Guogong, and on weekdays, he only thinks that this young Guogong is majestic and quiet, and he is quite handsome, but now he sees that he has quietly solved Han Ji's embarrassment, and he can't help but feel a little admiration when he is depressed.
Thinking about it again, Wei Guogong specially recruited Han Ji to see Shen Guanyu, and Shen Guanyu looked at Han Ji with a very kind gaze, he couldn't help frowning again, and then said to Ge Zhou: "You go and pass a message to the fourth master, just say that I have a distinguished guest to entertain here, and I can't leave now." Then he lifted up his feet and went in at the door, and greeted them as he went up into the room.
When Gu Song heard that Han Ji was coming, he was also very surprised, and he sat opposite Shen Xin with a chess piece and muttered for a long time, and then greeted him.
This line of team is very strong, Han Ji is a prominent teenager, although Wei Guogong, who arrived at the house for the first time, is middle-aged, but his demeanor is not inferior to that of a teenager, compared to Han Ji's young and handsome There is also a handsome and lofty temperament, and the maids in the house have spread the word of mouth after seeing it. Soon most of the prefectures heard about it.
When the news reached Huanyuzhai, Shen Yan was also surprised, but he was quickly relieved.
If you really want to propose, of course you have to come over to pay tribute on this kind of day, but I don't know what kind of turmoil will arise when you meet Shen Mi? She sent Fu Niang to inquire about the news, and told her to report anything at any time.
Shen Mi went to the outer study, which was full of cabinet ministers and important members of various ministries.
Everyone saw that the elders of the pavilion and Wei Guogong came together, and gradually got up. Give way to the way of the hand. The hall was gradually divided into two areas, on one side the distinguished guests centered on several pavilion elders and Wei Guogong were at the end of the more secluded side hall, while the rest such as Fang Guan and others gathered in twos and threes in the main hall and under the corridor in the courtyard.
Shen Mi silently counted the people in the house, and all the cabinet ministers and Xu rooms had arrived. Liu Yaze has been sick for the past two days. It was Mrs. Liu and her daughter-in-law who came to congratulate her. The four members of the cabinet plus Gu Zhicheng and Wei Guogong are nine people, plus themselves and Shen Guanyu, they are eleven people. So he asked people to bring the copper kettle used to make tea when Su Ri and his friends gathered, and took two boxes of tea sent by Hua Jun Chengcai, and brewed them himself.
Gu Zhicheng smelled the fragrance of tea, sniffed deeply, and then said to Han Ji: "Brother Ji is also a good tea ceremony, what kind of tea do you smell this?" ”
When Han Ji was young, in order to cover up his behavior and thinking, he put a lot of effort into chess tea, so these acquaintances here know that he was born in Jiangmen but also has some elegance, this is not a thing worth covering, if in normal times, he will say the history casually, but now it is in the Shen family, and it is still Shen Mi's tea, how dare he be frivolous.
But Gu Zhicheng said it thoroughly, and it would be hypocritical not to say it, so after thinking about it, he looked at Shen Mi and said: "I smell like this season's cloudy autumn tea, I don't know if it's correct?" ”
Shen Mi's eyes swept over: "Han Shizi is really an expert. ”
After speaking, he made half a cup and handed it to him, and said, "Please taste the soup." ”
Although he was surprised by him in his heart, it was not difficult for him to learn the vassal elegance of chess tea or something, and it was not worth taking it to heart.
Han Ji got up, took it with both hands, and took a sip, only to feel a little astringent, and wanted to say it when the words came to his mouth, but he suddenly stopped. Shen Mi was born in a family, and he is recognized as a gentleman, the words qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, tea, and hops must be learned, this cloud autumn tea is not difficult to brew, but he just made a cup of astringent tea for him to comment, I am afraid that there is fraud.
He raised his eyes and looked at Shen Mi, who was sitting on his knees, condensed slightly, and said humbly: "It's the best autumn tea." In terms of the color of the soup, if it is drunk by the younger generations of our blood, I think it is just right. If you drink it for the elderly, you may need to make it lighter. ”
As he spoke, he drank all the remaining tea, put his hands on the plate, and said, "Thank you, Lord for drinking." ”
The etiquette is well-done, but I don't know how long this skin can be worn. Shen Mi looked at the cup that was still rising on the plate, the smile on the corner of his lips did not decrease, and he didn't say anything, Shunshui turned the tea in the pot into a single one, and then poured out a few cups, and ordered Ge Zhou to hand them in front of the elders.
Wei Guogong got the tea, tasted it, only to feel that it was thick like an elixir after entering the mouth, and there was a light fragrance after entering the throat, and he didn't realize that he also looked at Shen Mi twice.
Shen Mi in front of him is dressed in a brocade shirt, with a hosta hairpin on his head to hold his hair in a bun, and a jade pei of the same color as the hairpin on his waist, lined with the background color of the shirt, refreshing and simple, like an idle crane in a bamboo forest, and his temperament as a celebrity is fully revealed.
And he smiled gracefully throughout the whole process, if it weren't for Han Ji telling him that he was bumped into by him two days earlier, and he was bumped into when he met Shen Yan, so that he had the bottom in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to see any difference between him and Han Ji, and he wouldn't have noticed the trick of being born into the invisible and disappearing into the invisible.
He put down the teacup, smiled and said to Shen Mi: "I have heard for a long time that Brother Ziyan is free and easy, and under today's contact, it really deserves its reputation." I don't know what year Brother Ziyan gave birth to Geng? ”
Shen Mi responded: "I don't dare to call my brother in front of Grandpa Guo, it's July of the year of Xinwei." ”
"July of the year of Xinwei?" Wei Guogong smiled: "I am Dongyue in the year of Jiazi. I admire the spirit of the Shen family for several generations, and I also look forward to finding an opportunity to sit down with Brother Shen to talk, since you and I are not a few years apart, in front of Shen Yushi and the elders, if Brother Shen is not outside, how will you and I be brothers in the future? ”
Han Ji's heart was happy.
Sure enough, he was right to choose to let Wei Guogong arrange the marriage for him, and to deal with a person like Shen Mi, he had to be a slippery head like Wei Guogong. If he recognizes his brother, can Shen Mi still treat him as a junior? When you become a junior, it will be easy to speak, and there are rules to follow, and it will be easier to look back and pay tribute to him and please him.
"Wending is a martial art, Ziyan is a text, the two of you are the pillars of the court, if you can communicate with each other, it will be a beautiful conversation!" Xu Ge Lao stroked his beard and said with a smile, Jiang is still old and spicy, although he doesn't know how Wei Guogong's father and son, who have nothing to do with the Shen family, came to the Shen family to congratulate him today, but Wei Guogong is obviously expressing his closeness to Shen Mi, how can he not see it?
The Shen and Han families are both reliable families, and the two of them are good at best, and it is good to say that Yu Chaotang Sheji is also good, and at the bottom of it, they have more connections in this circle, which is always good.
Gu Zhicheng listened but hurriedly waved his hand: "How can this work?" Ziyan is the same generation as me, and Uncle Ke and I are a generation apart, if you two brothers are commensurate, won't it mess up the generations? ”
"I'm thinking about it!" The elder of the pavilion raised his eyebrows and said: "You call your uncle and nephew, and they call them their brothers, where is the mess to get any seniority?" With so many new and old ministers in the DPRK and China, wouldn't it be confusing if they really followed this rule? ”
Gu Zhicheng was speechless.
What Zhu Ge Lao said seems to have some truth, but why does he just think that there is something wrong here? He looked at Wei Guogong and Han Ji, and then Shen Mi and then the elders of the pavilions, and felt more and more that there was a secret hidden under the harmony of their faction.
Gu Song also looked at the Han family's father and son from the side, his brows furrowed slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Shen Mi was going to refuse, but when he heard the statement of the elders of the pavilions, it was difficult to say anything, and if he refused, he would not even give the elders of the pavilions face.
However, he began to wonder about the motives of the Han family's father and son, first of all, the Shen and Han families did not have any close contacts, that is, they usually sent people to send people to send congratulations, even if the Han family had the intention of being friendly with the Shen family, it would not be so that both their father and son were present in person.
And Han Ji was caught that day, and Zhiqu should have disappeared and not appeared in front of him, but today he actually lowered his posture to the dust and respected him, even Wei Guogong himself condescended to call him a brother and brother, and the strange thing is that Zhuge Lao is also helping them talk! If he can't smell anything strange, he will be too dull.
But what kind of medicine are they selling in a gourd?
was vigilant, so he smiled and looked at Shen Guanyu.
Shen Guanyu also sniffed out a little abnormality, although he didn't know how astringent the tea Shen Mi gave Han Ji was, but since Han Ji replied again and again, and afterwards Shen Mi did melt the tea and brew it again before handing it to them, and the tea that was brewed casually later was too strong and too light, which showed that there was something greasy between the two of them.
How can there be a son raised by himself who does not know him.
As soon as Shen Mi cast his gaze, he could see that he was unhappy.
He held the pot and added tea to everyone, and said with a slight smile: "Grandpa Guo raises the dog, and the old man is also honored, but if you call each other brothers, then the old man will have to resign." ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but pause. But when I think about it again, I can't help but feel it.
If the Duke of Wei and the first emperor are sworn brothers, the Duke of Wei and the current emperor are theoretically brothers with different surnames, if the Duke of Wei and Shen Mi are commensurate, then Shen Guanyu has to be called the uncle, if Shen Guanyu has not been a politician, if it is in the court, if it is in front of the emperor, will it not make Shen Guanyu have the suspicion of sitting big?
It is true that there are a lot of people who are higher than the Duke of Wei, such as the elders here, but these people have been on an equal footing with the first emperor, and they are the emperor's elders, and it is not an exaggeration to call them uncles in private, but the courtiers who are promoted after the court are all younger generations, and the only one who is qualified to be an elder is Shen Guanyu, so isn't it to set up the Shen family? (To be continued......)
