Chapter 197: Sin
These words were ruthless and accurate, like a sharp sword piercing into his heart, Shen Yuan's body trembled, and his heart was full of anger, "You, what are these words?!" β
"Am I wrong?"
Wang's eyes widened, and the corners of Mingli's eyes showed slight fine lines because of excitement, "It's been more than ten years since that incident, and no one remembers it anymore, let alone dares to mention it, but paper can't contain fire!" β
The corners of her lips curled into a sarcastic sneer, "Not only her, but even your good son Guangsheng, I am afraid every time I see him - now that he is the Hou Ye, I am even more frightened day and night, afraid that one day, he will know what he has said......"
When she said this, her voice choked up, and she was so hoarse that she couldn't speak.
Shen Yuan's heart seemed to be shocked by the big stone, looking at his wife who was originally knowledgeable and virtuous, showing such a look, but his heart was full of ups and downs, guilt and fear turned into vines entangled in his heart, and he whispered: "I hurt you......"
"For you, I'm willing to eat."
Wang stared at him with teary eyes, and in a trance, he seemed to return to the night of the newlywed Yan'er, she just opened such beautiful black eyes, smiling brightly and generously.
He closed his eyes and said heavily, slightly tiredly, "Even if it is a great sin, it should be borne by me, a man, so you don't have to think about it." β
He glanced at his worried wife with tears in her eyes, and said in a soft voice: "You are the mother-in-law of the children, and their marriage should be decided by you, if you don't agree, no one can get past you." β
When Wang Shi heard this, she only felt that her heart was sour and warm, she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said softly: "It's also because I'm worried about the sky, and I think crankily every day, so I am so out of shape......"
This sentence was a disguised apology to her husband, she sighed, and said: "In fact, people can be ruthless if they are not grass and trees." Ruzhen has been filial to me for so many years, and her talent and temperament are the best choice, and I have always remembered her marriage. β
The more she is so sensible and virtuous, the more uncomfortable Shen Yuan feels in his heart, "Since you think this child is good, then you can find a good husband for her, it doesn't matter if her family background and talents are good, as long as she is honest and gentle, she can be treated well." β
This obviously means that she agreed to marry Ruzhen low!
A smug look of joy flashed in the corner of Wang's eyes. But he lowered his head and said, "In this way, I am worried about wronging the child again." β
"The so-called words of the matchmaker of her parents, if she is a good person, obediently obey it, how can there be any grievances? If there is really any wishful thinking, then what kind of woman is it! β
Shen Yuan said categorically, and then seemed a little tired, and sat on the Taishi chair on the side. I picked up the tea that had been sent a long time ago and drank it all in one go.
Only then did Wang find that his eyes were blue, as if he hadn't slept well for many days, and he couldn't help but feel even more guilty in his heart - he shouldn't have bothered him with these inner house things.
After all, she is the daughter of an official eunuch. After a little thought, he knew that he was still worried about the government, and when he remembered what he had just said, he had already understood most of it in his heart, and she silently added tea for her husband. He said in a low voice: "Husband, is the prince already so dangerous?" β
Looking at his wife's worried and anxious gaze, Shen Yuan sighed. comforted her: "It's not so serious, although the prince lost power and was banned, but the saint loves the grandson very much, and the rewards have been endless these days, it seems that he is saving face for the grandson." β
Wang lowered his eyes and was silent, and only said in a low voice for a long time: "No matter how favored the grandson is, if his father is deposed, then he will be nothing." β
Her voice was faint and cool, "I know that the group of Wenchen pulled you to stand in a line with them to protect what is right, you must not get involved." β
Shen Yuan frowned and was silent: The prince relies on Wenchen, and the Confucian scholars have the righteous reputation of upholding orthodoxy, and it is the duty of him to stand on his side, although no one dares to speak out when the saint is angry now, but among the Wenchen, an undercurrent is forming - everyone is saying that the prince was framed and convicted, and there are other people who plot rebellion!
As a member of the civil courtiers, if he takes a different position from everyone, he is afraid that he will be isolated immediately, but if he dares to stand on the side of the prince, he is afraid that he will be immediately thundered by the emperor and the king of Han.
Life in the world, is not what others think is impartial, such a person, if you are a small official, if you are in the center, I am afraid that both sides will not allow you!
He sighed, and didn't say anything to his wife after all, but said, "You don't have to worry, there is still room for this matter to turn around." β
Thinking of the terrifying rumors on Jin Yiwei's side, he said in a deep voice: "If the prince can solve this misunderstanding, maybe the father and son can still reconcile as before, if there is any evidence against him, I am afraid that ......"
He didn't say any more, he closed his eyes, and the room fell silent.

As the sun sets, the clouds on the horizon become dark and golden, and a trace of red glow gradually fades down, and the bustling street flow gradually thins out.
Guangsheng put on a black coat over his regular clothes and quietly walked out of the corner door of the Hou Mansion.
His little servant Shen An took his mount and quietly came over from the corner of the alley, and whispered a few words in his ear, Guangsheng's face suddenly changed, "That Master Xue wants to live in our house?" β
"It is said that he is a protΓ©gΓ© of the master's fellow disciples, and he can be regarded as a nephew."
"What a coincidence......
Guangsheng's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile.
The two of them took advantage of the dark twilight and soon came to a street in front of Dali Temple.
Under the guise of a liquor store, a dim air lamp swayed back and forth, and the drinkers inside had already paid their dues, and the smell of wine and food was exuding from the chaos and bustle.
Guangsheng made a look, and Shen An squeezed into the crowd, looking left and right as if looking for his master, and shouted that he had hit someone, and poured the residual wine on the person, which almost caused a brawl, causing the shopkeeper standing under the eaves to go in and persuade him.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Rising jumped into the second floor of the restaurant like a light smoke, crouching behind the screen next to the seat, where a window faced the street.
Gradually, the voices quieted down, and even the sound of the guys closing was very clear, and Guangsheng squatted behind the screen, and could even feel the little guy's rag passing through his nose.
Finally, downstairs, even the last light went out, and the guy who stayed behind seemed to yawn and snored slightly.
As night fell, the sound of the street was heard in the distance, mixed with the sound of the wind and the barking of dogs, and Guangsheng waited patiently, and finally waited for the faint sound of the carriage rolling.
He poked his head out and peeked carefully, only to see an ordinary carriage passing briskly, and there was no clue from the outside.
This is it!
The car was filled with the woman named Red Note! (To be continued......)
