Chapter 145

Concubine Liu, who was seated, obviously had other ideas, and she continued aggressively, "The most direct victim of this matter is the fourth girl, you tell me, don't you feel at ease to live in such a mansion, if the next time you are in the courtyard, there will be thieves who steal, the county lord is a beautiful woman...... I'm also for the good of this palace, Seventh Girl, you can't protect your shortcomings like this! ”

"What do you say, you slut?"

The seventh girl, Rong Qingran, rushed to the front of Concubine Liu with an arrow, and saw that the posture was about to hit her face with a slap, so frightened that Rong Qinghua hurriedly guarded her in front, "Seventh sister, what are you doing?" ”

"Come back!"

The princess snorted, and Mama Zhou had already pulled Rong Qingran back to her seat.

The old princess slapped the table heavily and said in a deep voice, "What kind of system!" Li Yan glanced around again and said in a deep voice, "There is such a thing in the house, since the thief has been dealt with, there is no need to report to the official, and the vigilance will be strengthened in the future. ”

Concubine Shen, who had been silent, smiled, "It's still the old princess who is wise, this is the right thing, report to the official?" In my opinion, it's not that I don't agree with Sister Liu's words, it's just that such a thing has been publicized, isn't it bad for the wisdom of the prince, the thieves have been recruited to the house, and they will inevitably be laughed at, let's strengthen the prevention, besides, the princess is not censored and understood, it is the slaves in the family who eat wine and gamble at night to have such crooked thoughts for a while, and the next person will find a way to deter them, and there should be no such thing in the future. ”

Concubine Liu's face changed when she heard this, she gritted her teeth and said unwillingly, "The princess is really capable, if something happens, she immediately found out the ins and outs, since she has such a ability, why didn't she take precautions in advance, wouldn't it be better if there was no such thing?" There is also Steward Yang or the princess brought from her mother's family, even if the princess is careless in this matter, but a person like Steward Yang was actually drunk on the night of the accident, or drank wine with the thief, who knows if it was colluded in advance, he said that it has nothing to do with him, he doesn't know anything, the princess can be trusted, I can be trusted, people now I have asked the guards of the palace to be put under trial, and I can only release him if I really understand that he has nothing to do with this matter. ”

"Concubine Liu actually took people in the mansion without permission?"

Mama Zhou exclaimed in surprise, and the princess also subconsciously wrinkled her brows, "I don't know what Concubine Liu has come up with?" ”

The atmosphere was full of a sense of suffocation, Concubine Shen just sat quietly and didn't answer anymore, the old princess squinted her eyes and took in everyone's expressions, and said softly to Rong Jin, "According to the person who sent things to the General's Mansion, the eldest prince Yun was not lightly injured, and the General's Mansion is good?" ”

"I don't know, Kikyo came to look for me, and I came back in a hurry."

Rong Jin chatted with the old princess for a few more words, and saw a girl hurriedly running in, Concubine Liu thought of what she was happy to see and stood up proudly, and hurriedly asked, "Did he confess?" ”

The girl who came in was none other than Qiu Ju from Tongfutang, she first glanced at the princess gloatingly, knelt on the ground and said to the old princess, "According to the instructions of the side concubine Niangniang, I caught Steward Yang in the remote firewood room behind, at first he was still stubborn and refused to recruit, and then we knew the righteousness, saying that as long as you confess honestly, the side concubine Niangniang will plead in front of the prince and the old princess to intercede with him lightly before he is willing to say." ”

"What are you recruiting? Wait a minute...... Go and invite the prince! ”

The old princess changed her mind when she said this, and she supported her body very calmly, "Steward Yang is the person brought by the princess's mother's family, and this is a major event in the house, since the matter of the thief is the main trial and disposal of the prince, don't be in a hurry to answer first, and you will explain it carefully when the prince comes." ”

At this moment, the princess and Mama Zhou glanced at each other, very puzzled, and glanced at the little girl kneeling on the ground, "The prince is not in the house now!" ”

"Then let someone find it!"

Concubine Liu said very confidently.

Concubine Shen got up with a smile, "This morning the prince said that it was the day when my third brother returned to Beijing, maybe he went to the Shilang Mansion, or I sent someone to take a look." ”

As he spoke, he instructed Chunliu beside him, "Carefully understand the situation in the house to the prince, if the matter over there is not very important or the discussion is over, please ask the prince to come back, if you don't find the prince, come back quickly, don't let the old princess wait." ”

"Then, let's talk about it in the afternoon, I'm tired, you all disperse, Jin'er stays."

The old princess gave an order, and Concubine Liu's mouth opened very unwillingly and finally said, "Okay, after lunch." ”

Shen Shilang's Mansion, there were two carriages parked at the door, and the two girls were taking their luggage to move to the mansion, Shen Yueru stepped forward with a smile and said, "Father and mother have worked hard all the way. ”

A middle-aged woman standing by the carriage had a slightly fat figure and a very average appearance, but although the man standing on the side was middle-aged, he was born with a white face and no beard, delicate facial features, medium stature, wearing a cyan Confucian shirt, it seemed that she was going out, Shen Yueru frowned and said, "Father just arrived at home, let's go to see my grandmother first." ”

Father Shen stood inside, lowered his voice slightly and asked, "You have seen the third prince, what did he say, what can you get for your father?" ”

"Seeing is seeing ......"

Shen Yueru thought about how to answer, but she didn't expect it, but she heard her father snort coldly, "I know that there is no play, what is the ability of a prince who is not favored, fortunately, I have a friend in Beijing." You'll talk back in the evening. As he spoke, he had already taken something from the car that had been prepared a long time ago, called a small servant and was about to leave.

"Yo, who should I be, it turns out that our Lord Shen is back, why don't you go in when you get to the house, look at this move in and out, it's a fortune, oops, you're going to leave with something? Standing at the door of the house in such a hurry doesn't even have the time to go home, tsk. When everyone turned around, they saw a neatly colored young woman coming out of the house, followed by a girl who was looking at the family with disdain, and before she could answer, she said to herself, "Just now the old ancestor also said that Lord Shen's family was tired of traveling and driving, and I was afraid that I would have to rest before I went to see her. ”

Mother Shen frowned and looked at the woman in front of her, Shen Yueru hurriedly stepped forward and said in her mother's ear, "Mother doesn't recognize it, this is Uncle's Aunt Hua." ”

"It turned out to be her!"

Shen's mother's eyes fell on Hua's brightly colored clothes, but she didn't expect that after leaving Beijing for so many years, the girl next to Shen's old husband had become an aunt, and Hua's was still as beautiful as ever, but she was ...... Hey, how can there still be half a point of complexion, and he has long been grinding in other places to become a soil bun, and the water and soil in Kyoto are really nourishing.

When she thought of the last two words, Shen Mu almost gritted her teeth.

Their family was originally a thorn in the side of the Shen Mansion, and they came back for a long time, except for the housekeeper who came out and said that they had arranged a three-entry courtyard in the east for them to live in, no one came out to greet them...... It's this attitude again! Originally, along the way, Shen's mother was still holding on to her family, after all, if the people of the Shen Mansion were willing to make some efforts, it would not be a problem for their family to stay in Kyoto, but now that they look at it, they wish they didn't come back, so how could they help.

"Aunt Hua, my father and mother just said that they would see my grandmother first, but my mother was sick again because of dizziness after a long journey, and my father was saying that I would go to the doctor after meeting my grandmother, you misunderstood." Shen Yueru was very filial to her mother's arm, and Shen's mother instructed Dye Mo to take a small box from the car, and personally took it and handed it to Aunt Hua and said with a smile, "This is a small thing we bought on the way back to Beijing, and it is a gift for my sister Quan." ”

Aunt Hua was originally carried from a girl, naturally she couldn't change her shallow eyelids, and there was nothing to hide at the moment, so she opened the box directly, and a golden hairpin between them was inlaid with two gems, one blue and one green, which were very dazzling, and immediately smiled, "The third lady has a heart." ”

Hua Shi was overjoyed and directly inserted the hairpin into his hair, and Shen Yueru said, "Since grandmother is waiting, it's not good to make grandmother wait for a long time, let's go and kowtow to grandmother." ”

The family kowtowed to Mrs. Shen in the main hall, but they didn't see Mr. Shen, and Shen Yueru's family didn't have the heart to look at people's faces there so they said goodbye and returned to the courtyard......

"That's too contemptible!"

Shen's mother shed tears aggrievedly, and Shen's father said with a gloomy face, "What's the use of crying, don't pack up the house and come out!" He turned around and said to his daughter, "Yueru, come in with me!" ”

A clean room that has just been cleaned up, only a table and a chair, and there are a lot of books on the bookshelf against the wall, it seems that it was originally a study, and when he entered the room, Father Shen did not hide it, and asked straight to the point, "What did the third prince say, is it really no fun?" ”

"Father, why are we in such a hurry when we just arrived in Kyoto, why don't we rest first."

Shen Yueru took the cup of tea dyed with ink and put it on the table, and Father Shen just picked up the tea bowl and put it down fiercely, "Anxious? Can I not be in a hurry, I can't stay in Kyoto this time, and I won't be able to come back in the future, but I can only stumble in the official position of Wupin in this life, I said a long time ago What is the use of an unfavored prince, you still put your mind on the identity of the prince and nobleman in the future to achieve results. It just so happens that when I return to Beijing this time, I will ask someone to find you a good family. ”
