Chapter 19 The New Officials Take Office with Three Fires
In the news that Shen Yan was unexpectedly appointed as the head of the Criminal Department and the intention of the emperor's move, Shen Yan had a relaxed smile on the corner of his mouth, and slowly walked to the gate of Wangjiang Tower with relaxed steps. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Brother Shen... Brother Shen is back. When Shen Yan's figure first appeared, Ah Fu's eyes were very wide, and his face was dazed and incredible, and then he shouted loudly, his voice was full of joy, and there were tears in his eyes, "Brother Shen, are you okay?" ”
"Ah Fu, I didn't come back well, how could there be anything." Looking at Ah Fu's eyes full of emotion, Shen Yan couldn't help but feel a trace of emotion in his heart, and stepped forward to hug Ah Fu.
"Brother Shen, it's good for you to come back." Looking at Shen Yan with a smile on the corner of his mouth, walking to the counter with light steps, Cheng Keer's eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and his voice was slightly choked.
Seeing Shen Yan coming back safely, Flawless Dirt glanced at each other, and a trace of indifference was released on their faces, and some relief appeared in their eyes, and they stopped talking.
Qiu Yingxue also had this look, but there was a hint of doubt in her eyes.
"Alright, my host, I'm not coming back completely." Looking at Cheng Ke'er, who was revealing her true feelings, Shen Yan stroked Cheng Ke'er's black and smooth hair with emotion in her heart. At the same time, with a hint of smile and gratitude in his eyes, he looked at Qiu Yingxue, and then made a simple greeting with his eyes and flawlessness.
"Brother Shen, why did the yamen suddenly let you back?" Cheng Ke'er had a rare trace of tenderness in her eyes, gently pushed Shen Yan away, a trace of blush appeared on her smooth cheeks, and asked softly with her head down.
"Why, doesn't our big boss want to see me come back?" Shen Yan had a slight smile on his face, and said jokingly, "Uncle Lin, do you have anything to eat, I'm so hungry." ”
"Brother Shen, you know how to make fun of me." Cheng Keer's face rarely showed a hint of a little daughter's posture.
"Yes, yes, I'll keep you fed." A smile appeared on Uncle Lin's face, and a mist flashed in his eyes.
"Thank you for your concern and concern for me, you are scared." Shen Yan's eyes were full of sincerity, and he was deeply courteous to everyone.
"Okay, Shen Yan is back, everyone pack up their mood." There was a hint of a smile on Uncle Seven's face, and he said with a little excitement, "By the way, Shen Yan, Jinling Mansion didn't embarrass you anymore." ”
"No, they also played a killing stick last night, today they just went through a normal process of collecting evidence, and finally found that the troublemaker died purely accidentally, and it has nothing to do with Wangjianglou and me, and the family of the deceased must no longer hold Wangjianglou and me accountable." Shen Yan roughly recounted the repetition of the case and Song Wei's verdict.
"No one expected that the emperor would come to Jinling Mansion in person." When others felt happy and happy for Shen Yan, Qiu Yingxue heard an important message from it and couldn't help but say with emotion.
"To be honest, I really want to thank the emperor for coming in person, not only sparing my ass from being beaten, but also rewarding a criminal department director." Shen Yan said with palpitations.
"Brother Shen, is this true?" Seeing Shen Yan's affirmative nod, a trace of joy appeared on Cheng Ke'er's face, and a faint sense of loss quietly arose in her heart, feeling that Shen Yan would definitely get farther and farther away from her after becoming an official, and pretended to smile with joy, "Congratulations to Brother Shen." ”
"The owner, no matter what my identity Shen Yan is in the future, the consultant of Wangjiang Tower will not be lost, unless the owner takes the initiative to not want me." No matter how well Cheng Ke'er's expression was hidden, he still didn't escape Shen Yan's eyes, there was a faint tingling pain in his heart, a sincerity appeared in his eyes, he grabbed Cheng Ke'er's jade hands with both hands, and said in an affirmative tone.
"Uncle Lin, prepare more delicious food." A trace of mist appeared in Cheng Ke'er's eyes, and she turned her head to say to Uncle Lin, who had not yet left, and then turned her head to Qiu Yingxue and said, "Sister Yingxue, if you don't dislike it, stay together and congratulate Brother Shen." ”
Hearing Cheng Ke'er's invitation, Qiu Yingxue looked at Shen Yan's free-spirited, playful face with a hint of cynicism with a complicated expression, a trace of joy, hesitation and uneasiness flashed in a pair of beautiful eyes, and she was happy that Shen Yan had ascended to the sky in one step, so that the identity of the other party had undergone earth-shaking changes, but Shen Yan entered the court as an official so quickly, although it was a happy event, but Shen Yan had no foundation and no experience, and the dark tide of Jinling City was surging, and the princes were laying out everywhere for the dragon chair and not playing, Shen Yan was easy to fall into the trap of others, As long as you are not careful, the chair under your butt will be kicked off the stage by others before it is hot, and you will even die.
"Miss Qiu, thank you for worrying about my case, how can I get such care from Miss Qiu." Shen Yan looked at Qiu Yingxue, whose expression changed, and felt quite emotional in his heart, but he didn't expect the other party to worry about his case, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes, and he said sincerely.
"You don't have to be like this, I didn't use any strength at all, but Sister Kerr doesn't think about it for you, and the person you have to be grateful for is also Sister Kerr." Qiu Yingxue obviously didn't want to tell the truth, but she didn't know why, the words came out of her mouth, very smooth, natural, and sincere, maybe she felt guilty for her inaction, maybe she was moved by Cheng Keer's persistence.
"Brother Shen, you are tired and your clothes are in tatters, go wash up first, and then fill your stomach well." Cheng Ke'er's eyes swept to Shen Yan's tattered clothes, a trace of tenderness appeared in her eyes, and she said softly.
"If you don't tell me, I've forgotten what I'm wearing." Shen Yan scratched his head a little embarrassed, and a hint of self-deprecation appeared in his eyes, "Ah Fu, help me prepare a basin of salt water and a bucket of water, and then help me buy a set of clothes, and I'll give you silver when I get back." ”
"Brother Shen, look at what you said, I will do things for you, and I still need you to give me money, clothes, the owner has already prepared them for you." Ah Fu replied cheerfully.
"It's still the owner who thinks it through." Shen Yan glanced at Cheng Ke'er gratefully.
"Yo, it's really lively, this color and fragrance are all there, it deserves to be a century-old store." After Shen Yan washed up, he came out to chat with Cheng Keer and the others for a while, Uncle Lin took out his housekeeping skills and fried a few specialty dishes, just as Shen Yan and the others raised their glasses to celebrate, a relatively sharp and slightly sissy voice came from outside the door, "Our family came at the right time, and a few of them will not be unwelcome." ”
"How dare you, even if you want to invite your father-in-law, you may not be able to invite it." Looking at the door, Xu Sanyuan walked in with two Tsing Yi, Shen Yan's mind was full of doubts, and he couldn't understand the other party's intentions, so he could only smile and look warmly welcome, "Father-in-law, please." ”
"Lord Shen, don't blame our family for coming uninvited." Xu Sanyuan had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and squinted his eyes and glanced at everyone present, "Miss Qiu is also here, I haven't seen Ling Zun for a long time, I don't know what Lord Qiu has been busy with recently?" ”
"Thank you father-in-law for your concern, my father is very good." Qiu Yingxue didn't know Xu Sanyuan's identity, nor did she know the meaning of Xu Sanyuan's words, so she had to answer officially.
"That's good, I'm afraid that Lord Qiu won't be idle, and going out to walk around will cause some unnecessary trouble." Xu Sanyuan said in his words, and then looked at Shen Yan, "Our family has not congratulated Lord Shen yet, he has been living in the sixth grade at a young age, and he is really a promising young man, and I hope that Lord Shen will have time to walk around with our family more in the future." ”
"My father-in-law has won the award, and being able to walk around with my father-in-law is really a blessing from the cultivation of three lives." Shen Yan was a little confused, he didn't understand Xu Sanyuan's sudden visit, and he didn't understand the intention of Xu Sanyuan's words, what his identity was, even if he somehow got a six-grade criminal department director, but in the eyes of the other party, he didn't have the qualifications to shine his shoes in this official position, but why did he stoop here to make friends with him?
"Lord Shen must be curious why our family suddenly visited, right?" Xu Sanyuan's eyes seemed to be able to perceive everything, and he looked at Shen Yan with a slight smile, "Actually, our family is also here by order." ”
"Ordered?" Xu Sanyuan's words made Shen Yan's originally unclear thinking even more confused, why did this involve the emperor?
"The emperor knew that Lord Shen had no experience as an official and did not have any foundation, so he was a little worried in his heart, so he asked our family to come and bring two guards to Lord Shen by the way, just in case." Xu Sanyuan was actually quite emotional in his heart, serving the emperor for more than 30 years, he had never seen a courtier who could receive such a holy favor from the emperor, worried that Shen Yan was young and his foundation was unstable, and sent himself to instruct some of the background of the Criminal Department, and also worried that Shen Yan would be retaliated against because he was young and vigorous, and sent two Jinyi schools to serve as Shen Yan's guards, what an honor.
"Thank you for the emperor's grace, and thank you for your father-in-law's hard work." Shen Yan was also completely stunned by Xu Sanyuan's words, the emperor's favor for him far exceeded the kindness of the monarch and ministers, "Since the father-in-law came by coincidence, why don't you have a light meal together?" How about eating and talking? ”
"Lord Shen is having dinner with friends, and it seems a little inconvenient for our family to sit down rashly." Xu Sanyuan's eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation.
"It's great to have friends from afar, not to mention that this friend is your father-in-law." Shen Yan smiled heartily, and Qiu Yingxue, Cheng Keer and several others also invited Xu Sanyuan to sit down, and said that women should not show up and leave their seats, and then asked Uncle Lin to prepare another place to eat, one is to entertain the two brocade schools brought by Xu Sanyuan, and the other is to eat by himself and others.
"I don't know what Lord Shen knows about the six parts?" Xu Sanyuan shook his head slightly when he saw Shen Yan, and the corners of his mouth flashed with a look that was really like this, "Eight years ago, after the emperor appointed the head of the Seven Princes to take charge of the Criminal Department, the Seven Princes continued to lay out under the help of the matrilineal clan, cronyism, and all those who were not in the Seven Princes' line on the surface were all eradicated by the Seven Princes for various reasons. ”
"Therefore, when Lord Shen takes office, he must make sure that the new official takes office three times, otherwise he will be expelled by their dismount." Xu Sanyuan looked at Shen Yan with meaningful eyes.
