Chapter 640: The Galaxy is Bright (2)

When the Qingzhen Bookstore was sealed, there was a huge battle, which scared the courage of a dry contributor. Shen Gongzi of the Hou Qing Seal owner was passed on to him, and many of the contributors were in one fell swoop, and they did not see any further action by Jinyiwei, so these people were a little relieved.

It's just that by the twenty-sixth day of March, the new science and technology scholars had been given court clothes and crowns and brought to the Confucian Temple for sacrifices, and the champions had also been awarded the official list and ended up becoming a member of the court.

So when Jin Yiwei went to the Qingzhen Bookstore again, it immediately attracted the attention of the whole city.

The last time the green seal was sealed, no one from the Shen family was present. This time it was completely different, the Shen family was headed by the second master Shen Zhou, the third master Shen Run, Shen Rui, Shen Yu of the top three in Xinzhong, and the men of the Shen clan in Beijing were all at the door.

In front of the door, there is also an incense case futon.

The people at the bottom don't know why, but some of the knowledgeable people know that it is a completely obedient arrangement.

The onlookers were afraid of the Jinyi guard, and they probably hid in the houses on the street and secretly watched the movement, but when they saw the Shen family like this, they knew that it would not be a bad thing, so many people stood up and watched directly.

Soon, the Jinyi guard team came over, and there were not many fewer people than when they came to close the store.

The shopkeeper and carver who were "taken in" before are now all smiling and relaxed, they didn't suffer any sin this time, and the Shen family steward came to appease and inform the owner that he would give the silver after he came out, and he could go home and get the silver immediately, how to be unhappy.

The boxes of manuscripts that had been carried away before were brought back well, not only one box less, but one more thing.

When the two brocade guards came out carrying a plaque with gold characters on a black background, several attendants also got off the station and sang with a unique emphasis, not only the men of the Shen family knelt down together, but the surrounding people also knelt down with great power.

This is the four-character plaque of "Qingzhen Bookstore" written by His Majesty the Emperor himself.

This is a real "golden" signboard.

This time, there was no holy decree, only two dictations from the emperor, and he tried his best to print more masterpieces in the Qingzhen Bookstore.

After the ceremony, everyone got up, Shen Rui went over to greet the waiter and thanked him, and quietly stuffed the red envelope over.

originally thought that the person who came would be Liu Zhong's subordinate, but unexpectedly, the inner servant said that he was a subordinate of Liu Zuzong.

This Liu ancestor naturally will not be Liu Zhong, but Liu Jin.

Although the waiter also said goodbye, his expression was arrogant, and the action of pinching the red envelope was really too obvious.

Shen Rui secretly scolded this group of guys who came to get oil and water, and naturally smiled and said some polite words on his face, and handed over a red envelope.

The waiter didn't avoid people, pinched and pinched the red envelope, and seemed to be eager to open it directly to see how many denominations the ticket was, and his mouth was much more polite, nodding to Shen Rui on the one hand, and ordering the brocade guard over there, "Quickly hang that plaque for Lord Shen, your hands and feet are sharp!" ”

Shen Rui, the leader of the hundred households led by Jinyiwei over there, had seen it at Zhang Hui's table, this person's name was Qi Ting, he was not a son of Xungui, but a hereditary official of the guard, but those who could mix in Zhang Hui's circle would naturally not be ordinary people.

It is similar to the errand of the decree reward, that is, the people of Dongchang or Jinyiwei come together, and there is no need to prepare a few more red envelopes, they are all taken by the leader, and they go back to a few families to share the profits, of course, when the palace is powerful, it is destined to take away the big head.

And today, looking at the posture of this chamberlain, I'm afraid that I won't give any profit to Jinyiwei.

Fortunately, Shen Rui was fully prepared, and when he was catching up with Qi Ting, he quietly stuffed the red seal into the past.

Na Qi Ting sighed, although he accepted it, he was polite, and whispered: "I shouldn't have asked the second son to break the bank, but I really took my brothers out, and some rules had to be done." Another day, I will be the east, and I will also invite the second brother Zhang, and also invite the second son to appreciate the face. ”

Shen Rui said with a smile: "It's hard for you to make a trip, just invite the brothers to have a cup of tea, Brother Qi is too polite!" ”

In front of the gate of the bookstore over there, the waiter was still shouting and putting the plaque straight.

Qi Ting's eyes fell on that side, the corners of his mouth smiled, as if he was also paying attention to the plaque, but he lowered his voice, gritted his back molars and said to Shen Rui: "Now Liu Zuzong's subordinates are all like this, and they are released to loot. Let's command Lord Yang to be the slave of Liu Zuzong's family, but even those of us who are under the bottom of us have to suffer the anger of this group of little geldings who can't get on the stage, fucking ......"

Although they are all friends of Zhang Hui, they are not very familiar with each other, so it is inevitable that they will talk deeply, but they are also resentful.

At this time, when Liu Jin was arrogant, he asked for bribes and sold officials, and he did it without concealment, and these people under him naturally did the same. And in order to honor Liu Jin and maintain his status, he wanted to eat and drink spicy food at home, so he had to double his search.

This year is another year of Jingcha, and I don't know how many people will suffer.

Shen Rui shook his head slightly, did not answer, and only patted Qi Ting's arm.

Qi Ting's cheek muscles twitched, obviously gritting his teeth, and he didn't say anything in the end, only arched his hand.

*

Although the little emperor's handwriting is really not very good, it is today's imperial pen, which is more valuable than Wang Xizhi's pen and ink at the moment.

Qingzhen Bookstore got such a treasure, and all kinds of rumors spread outside.

Sure enough, some of them said that the Gongyuan was on fire that day, and the test papers were burned, and the green seal happened to be the paper that many candidates had silently rolled, so they used it to top. He also said that the Jinshi who won the middle this time is afraid that he owes the Shen family a big favor, and how to repay it in the future.

Immediately, there was a book in the imperial history, pointing out that the rumors were released by the Shen family themselves, impeaching the Shen family for arguing about the talent ceremony, and inviting people to buy people's hearts with bad intentions.

It's just that as soon as the fold was handed over, the little emperor threw out the Wanjuan Pavilion plan.

In the open area of the West Garden, 10,000 volumes of pavilions were established, and all kinds of books were hidden in it, and the people, regardless of whether they had merit or not, could register as a basis for entering the pavilion to read books and even copy books.

At the same time, Li Dongyang, the first assistant to the cabinet, took the lead in presiding over the excerpts of the Yongle Grand Ceremony, transcribing those who are beneficial to the people's livelihood, including the Ten Thousand Volumes Pavilion, and printing them as appropriate - for example, the agricultural and mulberry books can be printed and distributed to all political departments in the world.

Yang Shen, Lu Nan, Dai Dabin, Shen Rui, and Hu Zhanzong, the second and third divisions, will all participate in the excerpt project.

The emperor also made an exception to designate five people as daily lecturers - although, the little emperor's lectures on this day were intermittent, basically the same as stopping. But with this title, you can be summoned by the emperor at any time for consultation.

The little emperor also said that the previous Qingzhen Bookstore was ordered to publish the undergraduate and Jinshi Shiwen, and the fire in the Gongyuan was really an accident, and the roll paper was guaranteed because it was to print the Shiwen, which was really God's blessing to the Ming Dynasty and made the Ming Dynasty not lose its talents.

Qingzhen Bookstore fulfilled its duties, gave a special imperial pen plaque, and authorized to participate in the printing of books in the Wanjuan Pavilion, mainly responsible for the collection and reprinting of folk technical books.

After arranging these things one by one in the court, Yushi's side naturally closed his mouth.

The emperor took over the matter of Yin Shiwen, and there was only one explanation left for everything that followed-Emperor Shengming.

At this time, criticizing the Shen family who are acting on orders is not questioning the emperor's wise decision-making.

The news of the establishment of the Wanjuan Pavilion spread, and naturally won praise from Shilin. No matter what time it is, people who read books love books.

On the contrary, many literati and celebrities took the initiative to send manuscripts, hoping to have the opportunity to print, and it was best to enter the Ten Thousand Volumes Pavilion to make a name for themselves.

The affairs of the Qingzhen Bookstore have always been presided over by Shen Zhou, and this time the old clan uncles who fell to the first saw the grandeur of the plaque sent by the Jinyi Guard that day, and they couldn't help but feel alive.

After Shen Rui chatted carefully with his second uncle Shen Zhou and third uncle Shen Run, he renovated the house that the old lady had assigned to Shen Zhou, and built a small private school first.

The three of them looked around the suburbs of Beijing outside the city, and finally found a small Zhuangzi with a green mountain background and a good scenery in a remote place, and prepared to transform it into a academy to see the situation and recruit older boarders.

The master of this Zhuangzi is a Beijing official of Zhishi, who was originally a foreigner in the Ministry of Rites, because of Wang Hua's incense, he sold Zhuangzi happily. The Shen family was not stingy, and took the initiative to give a higher price than the market, and both parties were happy.

Shen Rui's new science and technology scholars have finished all the courtesy, and there will be a court examination in early April, which is set up for the selection of Jishi.

Those who pass the examination will naturally enter the Hanlin Academy to study for three years, while those who do not pass will go to various ministries to observe the government and become a chief in the future, or go to the local magistrate and other officials.

Since Shen Rui directly gave the Hanlin review, he naturally did not need to take the court examination, and after reporting to the Hanlin Academy, he took a vacation to prepare for his family's marriage.

Only before he took two days off this vacation, he was found by Brother Shou in Xiyuan Lake Fenglou again.

This time, those who were by Brother Shou's side and could stay in the private room to discuss important matters, in addition to Zhang Hui, Cai Liang and Liu Zhong, Qian Ning was also impressively listed.

Shen Rui's brows couldn't help jumping, he didn't want that in a short period of time, Qian Ning had been so favored by the emperor. He didn't show it on his face, but he still greeted everyone with a smile and went to the table. But looking at it quietly, whether it is Zhang Hui or Cai Liang, it is Liu Zhong, there is no goodness in his eyes, and Shen Rui also knows it.

Brother Shou was not in a good mood today, and he didn't shout for wine and food, and when everyone was seated, he said bluntly: "Now there is a shortage of silver at the border pass, and the left attendant Lang Wengui of the military department used 500,000 taels of silver to pass through the border gates, and he also opened his mouth to ask the household department for 300,000 taels and 100,000 taels of silver. ”

Shen Rui exchanged glances with Zhang Hui, although Xiyuan alleviated some of the financial problems, and some relatives donated military expenses in the name of competition, but the expenditure of the border gate has always been an important reason for the tight treasury. It's really hundreds of thousands of taels and hundreds of thousands of taels every year that there is no sound when it is smashed.

I don't know where the money went in.

Brother Shou continued: "It's only been March, and the household department naturally can't come up with so much silver, and the hole in the salt has not yet been filled. Wen Gui thought of a trick. ”

The expression on his face was a little peculiar, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or annoyed, so he only said: "He asked the border pass martial arts to accept silver to make up for the officials and atone for his sins." 150 taels for 100 households, 200 taels for 1,000 households...... It rose by fifty taels in turn, and the commander of the capital was six hundred taels. If the existing official position wants to be upgraded, it is also a level of fifty taels. This is a job but not a plus, and the original manager is still in charge. In addition, the guilty may be redeemed by twenty taels of silver per year. ”

Shen Rui raised his eyebrows, the imperial court wanted to sell officials not once or twice, and the last time the household department also took out the terms of selling the official mantle, and even the number of monks and Taoists had to be sold to raise silver taels.

It's just that this time it's just the head of the military department.

I sighed in my heart, all the commanders are the officials of the third grade, only six hundred taels, this military attache is really easy. Civil officials don't know how many years of seniority they have to endure to survive the third grade, and how many people have not crossed the hurdle of the fifth grade in their lifetime.

It's just that looking at this charter, I don't add money, and I won't manage more people, and the co-author is an empty name.

Probably, there will be military attachΓ©s who are not bad for money to buy it.

Hearing this, Brother Shou said again: "The military department has begged for the birth to be imprisoned, and the monk has given him a case of receiving silver." The Ministry of Rites reconsidered, and those who are willing to enter the prison will receive 150 taels of food, 200 taels of enlargement, and 230 taels of supplementary school. He also sent 20,000 monks, each of whom received ten taels or eight taels of silver, and those who were powerless were ordered to return to the world. The monk and Taoist official lacked fifty taels of silver for his disciples, and allowed him to inherit it. ”

Shen Rui couldn't help but sigh again that the military attache could donate two hundred taels to a thousand households, and the civil official could only donate one prisoner.

Brother Shou's eyes swept over everyone's faces, and before he could open his mouth to ask, Qian Ning on the side was the first to smile: "The minister is shallow, and he doesn't know much about military affairs, so in the opinion of the minister himself, this is a good policy, the minister is the emperor's grace to shade the position of a hundred households, I don't know how many people are red-eyed, if the bank is opened to make up for the official, I don't know how many people are willing to pay the silver to come out, but I am afraid that I will break my head to grab this place." Just ......"

He seemed to have something unspeakable, Brother Shou couldn't help frowning, waved his hand and said, "Since I asked you to come over, I want to listen to the truth." But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

Qian Ning hurriedly thanked him, and then said with a smile: "The minister just thinks that this silver is too much." ”

Brother Rao is Shou's face was cloudy, and when he heard this, he couldn't help laughing, knocked on the table and said, "Sure enough, I received less." ”

Qian Ning hurriedly joked: "If you have to command all the affairs, don't say six hundred taels, it is six thousand taels, and the family house and land will also be brought up." What's more, this is a good thing to raise money for the border pass and kill two birds with one stone. ”

Shen Rui sneered in his heart, Brother Shou was unhappy when he sold the official title in the household department, and it was obviously unpleasant to mention this matter this time, Qian Ning would be so observant of words and feelings, how could he not know Brother Shou's emotions?

So I can't wait to stand in line and applaud, I'm afraid that it's not really for what he said to donate to command things, but ...... Eighty percent of this matter is written by Liu Jin.

Thinking of Liu Jin's greedy personality of accumulating money, I am afraid that this silver will not reach the border, and most of it will go to Liu Jin's pocket.

Before Shen Rui could speak, Zhang Hui took the first step and said: "Shengshang, the nobles played the arrow window in the ancient pier platform to ambush the soldiers, and the minister also has the same opinion as the minister's grandfather, this strategy is useless." ”

Several people present were slightly stunned, talking about silver here, why did Zhang Hui jump to the topic of captivity?

But after thinking about it, I realized that I was afraid that Wengui came to ask for these hundreds of thousands of taels of silver under the banner of renovating the pier. Zhang Hui is drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle, and if this tactic is rejected, there is no need to raise any money.

Qian Ning looked at Brother Shou's face, and saw that he seemed to be hesitating, so he smiled and said: "In the end, the second son of Zhang is studying martial arts in Beijing, and Grandpa Guo has always been in charge of the Beijing camp, so it is different if he wants to come to the border pass." Although Lord Wen Guiwen is a civil official, he has been governor for many years......"

Zhang Hui interrupted him, and only said lightly: "Although Lord Wen is the governor of Yansui, he is a civil official in the end. ”

The same words, but the other way around, are a slap in the face. The smile on Qian Ning's face did not change, but his eyes were a little colder.

Brother Shou ignored their dispute, waved his hand, and said, "Let's not mention the reconstruction of the pier for the time being, and leave it to the military department to discuss with the generals." This is a supplement to the official ......"

He said coldly: "This year, in Jingcha, how many people are moving up and down, don't you know?" Rather than filling one's pockets everywhere, it is better to mark the price clearly and receive all the silver from the treasury. ”

Shen Rui and the others, including Qian Ning, all hurriedly said: "The emperor can't!" ”

Brother Shou raised his eyebrows, looked at them, and did not ask questions, as if waiting for them to reply.

Shen Ruizheng said: "There may be silverfish, but if you judge officials by the amount of silver, I am afraid that there will be few good ministers in the court in the future." ”

Cai Liang also said: "Wenchen is dedicated to shepherding and guarding, and the generals are desperate to make meritorious contributions, so that they can be promoted, if they can buy it directly with silver, who is willing to work hard and who is willing to die?" The emperor was annoyed that those silverfish ministers and others also knew that they didn't have to destroy the hearts of the people and ministers to strive for progress just for a few silverfish. ”

Qian Ning's objection was because if the price was clearly marked, how could they still receive filial piety, and he only said in his mouth: "The military position here is actually a false name, people still manage those people, how to protect the border and how to protect the border, it has nothing to do with it, but Wenchen's side is different, this county is bought into the prefect...... You can't still be in charge of the county government, right? ”

Brother Shou pursed his lips and said, "Then come up with a way, what method will be used to make up for the lack of silver?" ”

Qian Ning took the lead again: "The minister thinks that it is feasible for the border military officer to pay silver to make up for the shortcomings. It's just that Lord Wen set it cheaper, and according to the minister, it will be three or five times more expensive. ”

Zhang Hui suddenly asked: "How do Qian Baihu know that the border generals can afford this official?" The border is bitterly cold, the war is continuous, and there are regulations for Yulu, where does the money come from? And three or five times? ”

The pleasing smile that Qian Ning had been hanging on his face finally disappeared, and he pursed his lips, this is really not easy to answer, the border soldiers are so poor that they are clanging, are the generals...... Eating empty salaries and drinking the blood of soldiers, as well as trading with Tartars in private, can always get rich by all means.

Cai Liang saw that the atmosphere was a little stiff, so he quietly said: "The minister thinks that the monk can collect the silver." The monk does not produce, all rely on the people to worship, on the capital of several large temples incense flourishing, and there are a lot of temple production, the silver is nothing, ten two or eight taels are made, but the monk Taoist official this inheritance of the silver is less, those who preside over the abbot which one has no net worth? ”

Brother Shou nodded, and suddenly said to Shen Rui: "It's time to set up a Taoist temple for Tianliangzi Zhenren, it's in Xiyuan, what do you think?" ”

The corners of Shen Rui's mouth twitched, the little emperor is really addicted to making money, this is watching other temples receive soft money for sesame oil, and he also wants to use Tianliangzi to collect money?

"Set up a view of the boundary of Xiyuan, some are enshrined, and some wild medicine is sold, and there are still tens of thousands of taels a year." Shen Rui thought for a while and said, "It's just a drop in the bucket." The minister remembered a story he had read in the book, and he might be able to use it. ”

Brother Shou raised his eyebrows with interest and motioned for him to continue.

Shen Rui said: "The book is long, so I won't repeat it one by one, only one of the paragraphs is written about the death of a daughter-in-law, in order to write the funeral scenery and spiritual position beautifully, he took 1,200 taels of silver to donate a false name to his son. ”

Brother Shou was stunned for a moment, nodded, and said, "The squire is quite good-looking, and there are such behaviors. You mean, Xu Shangjia donates officials? ”

Shen Rui shook his head and said: "But there are businessmen who are willing to donate a false position, either for a good reputation, or for breaking the ban, and they are decent and good-looking in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and some are simpler, just to not kneel to the county order." It's just that it is a false position, and it is easy to raise the hearts of these greedy and vain people, and the official position is no longer valuable, so as the minister and Cai Liuge just said, it makes the officials on the right path chill.

He paused, his eyes burned, and said: "Donating officials, but there is another kind, such as the story told by Fang Caichen, if you want to have a good funeral, it is easy, you don't donate officials for the living, but you can donate officials for the dead." ”

Brother Shou hooked the corners of his mouth, "Chasing the seal?" ”

Shen Rui nodded and said, "Exactly." As mentioned in the story of the minister, this is the death of his daughter-in-law, so it is naturally more cost-effective to donate an official to his son and ask for a decree. But if the widowed old mother dies, you might as well directly allow him to donate a life, so that the old man can mourn to the fullest. ”

At this time, to govern the country with filial piety, regardless of whether it was filial piety during his lifetime, this posthumous mourning must be paid attention to.

Brother Shou also knew this, and couldn't help but put on a mocking smile: "Not bad." Indeed, it is so. ”

Shen Rui said: "In addition, there is another kind, the emperor may not know, among the people, many businessmen who have made a fortune for one or two generations, because their ancestors are not beautiful enough, they are often willing to spend a lot of money to connect with some 'families' and 'wang families' with the same surname, in order to have a 'famous' background. It's not all about being decent and good-looking, sometimes when talking about business, having the endorsement of a famous family is more advantageous. In addition, when choosing a marriage for your children, you can also get a better marriage with such a 'famous' background. ”

"The minister thinks that this donation can only be for the deceased, can donate life, can also donate to the ancestors, both are in the five to seven grades, if the ancestors donate officials, resulting in the effect of 'hairpin house', not only can not be cheaper, but also more expensive. There are many giants in the south who have made a fortune in the first or two generations, and I think many people are willing to spend this money. ”

Brother Shou high-fived and smiled: "It's wonderful, it's good to donate officials to the dead, the left and right are all false positions, and there is nothing to be done, not bad." ”

Zhang Hui also smiled: "Shen Er, how did you come up with that brain." ”

Brother Shou said: "This is different. ”

Shen Rui smiled bitterly: "The minister can't tell whether you are a praise minister or a bad minister." I don't know if this policy is feasible, but the emperor should still discuss one or two with the cabinet, and the Ministry of Officials and Rites must also discuss the specific official position, silver and payment methods. ”

Brother Shou smiled: "I praise you." You thought about it for a long time, and when I went back, I talked to a few elders. ”

Shen Rui responded again and again, thought about it and said: "In addition, we must also think of a good name for this donor, and put it in the name of charity - people themselves are buying a reputation, and selling officials is always not good." ”

Brother Shou pointed at Shen Rui and smiled: "What a profiteer." With the name of a good man who repairs bridges and paves roads, I am afraid that more people will want to buy it. ”

Shen Rui said with a smile: "This is a hard selling point, not as good as Your Majesty, it is easy to come by, it is a selling point." Two days ago, Lu Twenty-seven, the son-in-law of Tianliangzi Zhenren, came back from Liaodong and brought back a batch of horses, most of which were white horses. Only then did the minister know that the emperor let the new science and technology scholars pass the brocade white horses in Xiyuan, and the white horses in Beijing will be out of stock, and everyone will ride white horses for beauty. ”

Brother Shou was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Really? Hahaha, this is an unintentional insertion. He thought about it, and then smiled at Zhang Hui and said, "When will Jingwei Martial Arts be reviewed?" I also want to bring the West Garden to the people to see, so that they can learn this majestic man's temperament! ”

Zhang Hui and Cai Liang all laughed and applauded.

Qian Ning smiled on the side: "Shen Chuanyu is really talented. The words seemed to be heartfelt admiration, not sarcastic, but this smile was a little smiling.

Liu Zhong, who had been silent, suddenly accosted and said: "Several of them are all talents, or long live the wisdom, and know the talents." ”

Brother Shou smiled when he heard this, and Qian Ning was even more clever, and he knelt down and said loudly: "Holy Monarch and Virtuous Minister, God bless Daming." ”

Brother Shou smiled even more heartily.

And Liu Zhong behind him glanced at Shen Rui quickly, and lowered his eyelids again.

Shen Rui knew in his heart that it was time to talk to Liu Zhong about dealing with Qian Ning.

Hearing Brother Shou say, "Then Lu Twenty-Seven Lang is back?" It just so happens that when he drinks your wine, let him go to Shanxi and Shaanxi, he is doing well in Liaodong, and see what business he can do in the west, so as to alleviate the dilemma of lack of silver here. ”

He moved his gaze to Zhang Hui again and said, "You can also go over and see if it is feasible to rebuild that pier." ”

*

This time, it was not only Lu Erqilang and Shen Chun who came back from Liaodong who rushed over to attend Shen Rui's wedding, but also the Lu family in Shandong and Songjiang in early April, as well as the Shen clan, relatives and friends also arrived in Beijing.

Wang Shouren is still staring at the coastal extermination of the pirate remnants, and he can't leave lightly, so his wife He Yingzhi took his son north to congratulate him.

He Yingzhi is He Taizhi's sister, and this time she not only brought her own gift, but also brought Master He's gift.

He Taizhi also hadn't seen his eldest sister for a year, so he was very happy. It's just that the old man Wang Hua is in Beijing, He Yingzhi naturally can't live in the Shen Mansion, and he can only come over every once in a while with his son. He Taizhi, who vowed to play with his little nephew every day, couldn't help but be disappointed.

Shen Li, who was also in office, had already taken a leave of absence and was going to return to Beijing to attend Shen Rui's wedding, but he couldn't make the trip due to a temporary situation.

Last year, there was a great drought in Jinan Mansion, and the imperial court let the summer tax be left for disaster relief. There was not even a few snows in the whole winter, and there were signs of locust plagues at the turn of spring and summer.

Shen Li had no choice but to let Xie return to Beijing accompanied by his eldest son Shen Lin.

This time when he came back, the Xie family seemed to have changed as a person, I don't know if it was because he was richer, the whole person seemed softer, and his words and deeds were less aggressive, and he seemed to be a little closer to the Xu family, and he was also quite kind to the Shen family.

Even the He family couldn't help but murmur to the Xu family behind his back: "This is Xie Ge Lao Zhishi, it's really different." ”

In the past, because the He family was the daughter-in-law of the clan, she was recognized by the Xu family as a place for her goddaughter to live, and she was very stared at and coldly spoken in front of the Xie family.

This time, Xie Shi came back and asked her with a kind smile how old Brother Xiao Nan was and what books he had read, and also gave him a set of four treasures of the study room and some Shandong specialties to eat for Brother Xiao Nan, which really surprised He Shi.

Xu only smiled and patted her, and sighed: "She has her difficulties, you don't have to be demanding." ”

At the end of last year, in addition to filial piety, Shen Rui was unable to go back to participate in the removal ceremony of Master Hongda because he had to prepare for the Spring Festival, which was a deep regret.

This time, the patriarch of the five rooms, Shen Qi, wanted to preside over the affairs of the clan and could not come, so Mrs. Guo of Hongda took her youngest daughter Sister Fu, and Shen Ying's family and Shen Quan's family to Beijing together.

In addition to participating in Shen Rui's wedding, Shen Ying is also seeking recovery for herself.

Although filial piety came out last year, one is near the end of the year, and the other is because this year is the year of Jingcha, and there may be a better shortage of children when you wait for it.

Shen Ying is going to recover, Shen Rui is now also in the Hanlin Academy, and the Shen family has a different weather in Beijing, so more clansmen will follow this time, planning to find an errand in Beijing to help Shen Ying's brothers.

Coming with the Shen family, there are also Lu Sanlang of the Lu family, and Lu Lan, the eldest son of the head of the Lu family, which shows the importance of the Lu family.

In addition, there was also a staff member surnamed Fu of Dong Qihe, the prefect of Songjiang.

Like Shen Ying, this one not only came to attend the wedding to get closer to the Shen family, but also to run for Dong Weng's official position.

Dong Qihe's term of office has also expired in three years this year, and with his qualifications and political achievements, it is impossible to be promoted, and there is no better place to be promoted than the rich land of Songjiang Mansion, so he asked people to go to Beijing this time to seek re-election.

Especially last year, he had asked for the construction of a shipyard, this shelf has just been erected, if he is transferred, will not make wedding clothes for others, if he can be re-elected, this political achievement will be firmly in his hands, plus the six-year prefect's resume is enough for him to be promoted to the next level.

In his opinion, he has a good relationship with the Shen family, and judging how much the Shen family cares about the shipyard, he will definitely be willing to help him.

Just as they were about to enter Beijing, news suddenly came that Yang Tinghe had been promoted to a scholar of Dongge University and had joined the cabinet to do business.

Mr. Fu, a staff member, immediately disembarked and went to buy something, doubling the size of the gift.

This is not the first time Mr. Fu has done such a thing, last time he also sent a New Year's gift to Beijing, knowing that Wang Hua entered the cabinet, Dong Qihe also made a temporary thicker gift. Mr. Fu knows Dong Weng's temperament very well, and now that there are two elders standing behind the Shen family, it is natural that they cannot be compared with before.

Since they were traveling in the same boat, the Shen family and the Lu family on the boat didn't know.

The gifts prepared by the Lu family themselves are not thin, and the Lu family and the Shen family have cooperated in many ways, so they did not deliberately make up for the gifts.

After Shen Quan met Shen Rui, he couldn't help but ridicule this matter in private.

Yang Tinghe's entry into the cabinet was inevitable, so Shen Rui only smiled and let him joke, but when he talked to Shen Ying about the resumption of the matter, he said: "I also discussed with my father-in-law before, and my father-in-law also mentioned that it may not be easy to enter the general administration department now." At that time, he also said that the Zhan Mansion could plan a thing or two. Now that he has entered the cabinet, there must be someone in the Zhan Mansion here who wants to be promoted, has Brother Ying ever thought about returning to the Zhan Mansion? ”

Shen Ying entered the Zhan Mansion after the Shuji Shi was disbanded, and was later promoted to the General Administration Department with her ability, and now it is naturally the most ideal to return to the General Administration Department.

However, he also knows the current situation, the important place of the General Administration Department, all the cabinet elders are also fighting fiercely, he is Yang Tinghe's "in-laws", he served under Yang Tinghe when he was in the Zhan Mansion, and he is Yang Tingyi's same year, a good friend, and a proper Yang Party, and other cabinet elders may not be happy to see him join the General Administration Department. And I heard that Jiao Fang is quite domineering now, and Liu Jin is in response, but I am afraid that it will not be easy to get.

Shen Ying nodded and said, "Let's get up first, and then talk about it, and it's not too late to plan for the rest in the future." ”

Shen Rui asked Shen Quan what his plans were.

Shen Quan is different from the two brothers, he thinks that he is not the material for studying, and he is very reluctant to take the middle school, and he has no intention of taking the Jinshi exam again.

I also discussed with my mother and two brothers at home, and when Shen Rui asked, he said: "I originally wanted to stay in Beijing to help the eldest brother and you, or go home to help the second brother, but the two brothers didn't allow me to be lazy, and wanted to donate a county and county to me, so that I could experience experience." ”

Shen Rui said with a smile: "That's how it should be, the third brother should also have his own career." ”

Shen Quan laughed at himself and said, "I just hope to find a place closer to you, and you can come and help me round the field in time if I smash the stall." ”

Shen Ying glared at him and said solemnly, "Hun said." If you don't care about yourself, something really happens, see which one can protect you. ”

Shen Quan had always been afraid of his brother, so he shrunk his neck and squeezed his eyes at Shen Rui.

Shen Rui had no choice but to smile and change the topic, because when it came to the prefect Dong Qihe, he couldn't help but talk about shipbuilding, as well as the craftsman school that Shen Rui had in mind.

Because Shen Quan helped manage shipbuilding matters before, he replied: "With the matter of bandits, Nanzhili also attaches great importance to shipbuilding, and the craftsman school is built smoothly, and the Shandong Lu family has also sent people over, but it is inevitable that the new hands here will learn slowly, and they can't help shipbuilding." In addition to Shandong, Lord Dong also went to Fujian to find shipwrights. ”

Shen Rui thought for a while and said, "Although the craftsman students here are novices, they can't just look at them, and they won't be able to learn anything if they can't just look at them." It should be to learn some basics in the school, and then take it to the dock to try it out, and then go back to the school to learn more deeply, and then to get started, and so on, in order to improve, and slowly practice into a master. ”

He wanted to take the model of direct training and operation after learning the knowledge in the technical college he knew in his previous life, and use it in Zhang Hui's Jingwei Martial Arts Ordnance Bureau, but the weapons are all small pieces in the end, and it doesn't hurt to let the apprentice try to operate it, but shipbuilding is different, it's really a novice to do, and an oversight causes the ship to break down when it travels at sea, then it will be fatal.

So he said, "Wait until I think about it carefully, and then write it down." Hmm, will the third brother return to Songjiang this time? Who is the shipyard handed over to now? ”

Shen Quan muttered: "It's just that there is a shortage of manpower, I want to help, but you prefer me to do what the county knows." Now that I am gone, will I not be more and more certain? This is the twelfth is temporarily handed over to the fourth brother of the Zongfang Yuanzhi to manage, and the Lu family's side is the Zongfang Lu Wulang. ”

Shen Rui said with a smile: "Isn't it a talent to manage a shipyard in the district, but the third brother is a figure who can shepherd a county." ”

Shen Quan rolled his eyes and scolded with a smile: "It's not big or small, I'll make fun of your third brother." ”

mentioned Zongfang, and inevitably talked about the two brothers Shen Hui and Shen Jun. Shen Jun has not been heard from since he "went out to travel", and Zongfang did not mention it much.

Brother Xiaodong and Shen Qi's wife and children still did not move, and the Zongfang and Wufang moved very little.

As for Shen Hui, he has been in the political department of Shanxi for more than three years, and he doesn't know whether to take advantage of this Jingcha to move, but he has never sent any letter to the second room of the Shen family.

"Over the years, only the New Year's Gift has been moving around as usual, neither thin nor thick. And when Brother Jin got married, it was just a courtesy, and no one arrived. Shen Rui shrugged his shoulders and said, "On my side, I have already brought the wedding letter to the New Year's ceremony, and there has been no movement until now, and I have not brought the letter, and I will not come if I think about it." ”

Shen Ying sighed and said, "There is this matter from the He family...... We have divided the clan again, and the patriarch is not in the clan room, and there are also cases where Brother Jue can't turn around for a while. ”

Shen Rui shook his head and said nothing, he didn't think that if Shen Hui could send someone this time, it happened that Zhang Hui and Lu Erqilang were going over there, and it would be good to set up a line, but now it seems that it is impossible.

*

It was April 20 that Shen Hui's gift from Shanxi arrived, but it was sent by an ordinary steward, just a blessing, and there was no letter.

Shen Rui didn't expect to contact Shen Hui anymore.

It was quite surprising that Liu Zhong asked someone to send a gift, but it was two gift lists.

In the secret room of the private house, Liu Zhong told Shen Rui and said, "That share was brought to you by Wang Yue from Nanjing." It's my side of the dark line, don't worry. ”

Shen Rui sighed: "At this time, he is steady, better than anything else." Why take the risk of sending something. Once there is a loss, it is not to thank you and me, but to harm you and me. ”

"Don't worry, it's been a long time, and nothing has been found." Liu Zhong said, "And at this time, Liu Jin is proud, Liu Xie's people are almost swept away, let alone pay attention to the trivial matter of a defeated subordinate like Wang Yue." ”

Shen Rui also sighed, remembering that day he discussed with Brother Shou about the lack of silver at the border pass, and asked Liu Zhongdao: "That soldier Lang Wengui, is it Liu Jin's person?" ”

Liu Zhong sneered and said, "Now half of the people in the court are Liu Jin's people. These words are for the sake of the court and the Ming Dynasty, and in the end, they are all for Liu Jin to pull money in his pocket. Nearly thirty percent of the money previously allocated to the border pass fell into Liu Jin's mouth before he left Beijing. ”

Shen Rui frowned, he also knew that Liu Jin was powerful at this time, but he also wanted to pull out this silverfish scourge as soon as possible.

"Wang Yue buried people by the side of Liu Jin and Qiu Ju. In the end, he was also in charge of the ceremonial supervisor and the East Factory, but he was not a vegetarian. Liu Zhong frowned and said silently when he saw Shen Rui, "Saving Wang Yue is also for this group of people." There are many things about Liu Jin, and I can have some news on my side to a greater or lesser extent. It's just that these are not enough to bring him down. ”

Shen Rui was silent, of course he knew that the most fatal of the crimes that brought down Liu Jin in the history of his previous life was rebellion. Only a felony such as rebellion can directly choke a person to death.

But now, these can't be hung on Liu Jin's head.

Even if there is Wang Yue's insider, there is no way to hide a fake seal in Liu Jin's house at present, and then instigate Brother Shou to find it out in person.

Shen Rui pondered for a moment and said, "Right now, I can only slowly accumulate evidence of his guilt." After a pause, he mentioned Qian Ning and said: "The emperor himself is a young man, and he is greedy for fun, and now there is a villain like Qian Ning by the emperor's side, I am afraid that the emperor will not think about government affairs, and it is letting Liu Jin and others take advantage of the loophole and take the opportunity to seize power." But he wanted to think of some way to let this villain leave the emperor. As long as the emperor is in charge of the government, Liu Jin does not dare to act recklessly, and the emperor is familiar with government affairs, so he can know the abominable crimes of Liu Jin. ”

Liu Zhong nodded and said, "Qian Ning's guy must be removed." ”

He paused, as if he was phrasing, and said after a while: "Now, I am thinking of using Qian Ning to hang Liu Jin and remove them together." ”

Shen Rui couldn't help but be surprised.

Liu Zhong lowered his eyelids, rubbed the edge of the cup in his hand, and said, "In this matter, you also have to find someone to help outside." As you know, Ning Fan has not been at ease lately. ”

Conspiracy.

This is the evidence that can completely bring down Liu Jin.

Shen Rui leaned forward slightly, stared at Liu Zhong and said, "Uncle Shi wants to let them hang up with Ning Fan?" It's just that Liu Jin doesn't know Ning Fan...... Is the wolf ambitious? ”

I don't know what the history was like in the previous life, but in this life, because of the Songjiang Rebellion, Ning Fan showed his tail in advance. The Taihu bandits broke one of Ning Fan's arms again, such a big thing, would Liu Jin not know?

"Do you think Zhang Yong and Liu Jin are together? The three divisions of the Tongfan case will be tried, and the news is controlled very strictly, and only the cabinet boss and Zhang Yong, the Qin cha, know about it. Liu Jin, maybe I can know some of the edges, but I don't know the details of the Ning Domain. Liu Zhong smiled suddenly, revealing his white teeth, "What's more, Qian Ning doesn't know anything." ”

Shen Rui raised his eyebrows, yes, the time between Qian Ning and Liu Jin is still short, and Ning Fan's matter has been in the past for a long time.

"Ning Fan begged for this and that a while ago, and the emperor finally gave the book down, isn't Ning Fan ...... Kicking his nose in the face, a few days ago, he handed the fold up, and invited him to thank him. ”

"What the hell is this man trying to do?" Shen Rui couldn't help but say. Is this a temptation? Or do you want to go to Beijing for what to do?

Liu Zhong said coldly: "It doesn't matter what he wants to do." At this time, his people are looking for a way in Beijing, and tens of thousands of taels of silver want to knock on Liu Jin's door. Liu Jin didn't leave his hands, but he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do anything if he received the money. I was about to lead them to Channing. ”

Shen Rui said with a smile: "No, Qian Ning is now a celebrity in front of the emperor, and no one in the capital knows who doesn't know." ”

Liu Zhong glanced at Shen Rui, nodded slowly, and said with a smile: "I'll let Xiangyun go to you when I go back." ”

Shen Rui nodded and replied, "Uncle Shi don't worry." ”

*

As the wedding date approached, Shen Rui also put aside everything and concentrated on preparing for the wedding.

Thinking that he was about to marry the girl he was thinking about and staying together day by day, Rao was consciously calm and moderate, and he couldn't help but feel warm, like a hairy boy.

Finally on April 28, Dai Dabin, Pang Tianqing and other Shen Rui invited the same year's concubines, all of them in brocade clothes and white horses, very handsome.

Originally, it was popular to dress like this in Beijing at the moment, and these top ones were very handsome, and as soon as they appeared on the street, they caused a sensation.

The people heard that it was rumored that the princess was going to marry the sister of the champion prince, and a new branch jinshi was the prime minister, and they came to see the excitement. The Shen family also does not hesitate to throw copper plates to like money.

Shen Quan couldn't help but tease Shen Rui and said: "Brother Rui, you have miscalculated, looking for such a group of handsome women who are more handsome than you, wouldn't it steal the limelight from you, the groom." ”

Shen Rui smiled: "You will know their benefits in a moment." ”

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the benefits of this group to be reflected.

Facts have proved that there is an amazing and brilliant champion uncle, and it is not too much to invite foreign aid.

Yang Jiayuan began to fight poetry wheel war, Bangyan, Tanhua, Chuanyi, Xinke Jinshi Xiangtuan took turns to compose poems and lyrics, and excellent works were frequent, but they never survived the uncle of the champion.

Or Xi Po couldn't wait, for fear of missing the time, she urged repeatedly, Yang Shen didn't really want to compete with Shen Rui, and missed the auspicious time of the sister, so she finally asked Shen Rui to make a hypnotic poem, ending this fighting poem that had been circulated in the market for a long time.

Yang Tian in the room was already so nervous that his palms were sweaty.

Zhao Tong patted her back lightly, smiled and comforted: "Don't panic, don't be afraid, I'm going to go to the Shen Mansion to drink in a while, and I'll accompany you when I turn around." ”

Yang Tian hurriedly said: "It's bumpy in the car, you better go home early and rest." Your body matters. ”

Cai Luo came over on the side and said, "Sixth sister, don't worry, I'll accompany Sister Tian over." ”

Cai Miao had married the Nanjing Chengguo Mansion last year, and this time she came with Zhao Tong was Cai Luo Cai Jiu, who was engaged to Pang Tianqing.

Cai Luo had secretly seen Pang Tianqing a few times, but in today's situation, she couldn't help but run to the second floor of the embroidery building, and looked down at the excitement, at this time, a little face was a little redder than the bride.

"I'm sturdy, it's fine." Zhao Tong glanced at Cai Luo, and couldn't help but quip: "I followed Zhang Er, I can be regarded as both my mother's family and my mother-in-law's family, who are you going with, Sister Luo?" Your best day is in October. ”

Cai Luo wrinkled his nose, but he didn't twist it, and said with a smile: "Can't I go with my brothers, but there are three brothers in my family who want to help Second Brother Shen block the wine, and I am not allowed to go?" ”

Zhao Tong smiled: "It's still your family, there are literary poems, and martial arts are wine." ”

Cai Luo smiled generously: "Good sisters, my family doesn't need to block poetry, only wine, today I work hard for my sisters, and my sisters don't want to detain my brothers-in-law from helping in other days." ”

Zhao Tong swept around with his eyes, and there were several daughters of the Hanlin family and Yang Tian's handkerchiefs sitting in the same room, all of whom were sitting in Si Swenwen, and when they heard their words, the parties didn't do anything, but they were ashamed enough.

Zhao Tong shook his head with a smile, poked Cai Luo's forehead, and said with a smile: "You, this mouth, I learned from your seventh sister, and the tone is smooth!" Don't make the sisters laugh! As he spoke, he quietly gave Cai Luo a look.

Cai Luo is different from her and Cai Miao, they are both married to the sons of the nobles, and the future social circle is still in the circle of the nobles, so the bright and sassy temperament is likable.

Cai Luo is going to marry Wenchen, and he will have to deal with these girls and daughters-in-law of the Hanlin family in the future, but he is afraid that he will have to gather his temperament to be demure.

Cai Luo knows, but she is not in a hurry, the eldest princess has already talked to her about the future, and she has already made up her mind, she will not be maverick and annoying in the new circle, but she also disdains to pretend to be a quail to win recognition.

She stood up, saluted gracefully to the surroundings, and said with a smile: "Let the sisters see and laugh." ”

Several daughters of Hanlin are not stupid, and they have all participated in the banquet of the eldest princess's mansion, and they are no strangers to the temperament of Cai Miao and Cai Luo's sisters, so they all smiled and said politely at the moment.

After a while, there were firecrackers outside the door, Wang Yan walked over quickly, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, open the door, big sister go with me to the front to salute the old lady." ”

Zhao Tong hurriedly looked at Yang Tian's makeup carefully, squeezed her hand, and said with a smile: "Don't panic, I'll be over there for a while, don't worry." ”

Yang Tian bit his lip and nodded vigorously, but he still felt his heart pounding and panicked.

said goodbye to his parents in the front hall, cried fiercely, and when he sat in the sedan chair, Yang Tian only felt not only flustered, but also had a faint pain in his head.

Through the gap in the hem of the red hijab, looking at the trembling butterflies on the tips of the embroidered shoes, and the happy sound of blowing and blowing in her ears, and the noisy sound of passers-by congratulating on the 100-year reunion, she felt like she was in a trance and didn't know where she was.

This trance suddenly disappeared until her feet stepped on the ground of the Shen family, and he handed her the red silk. With the singing of worshipping heaven and earth, she knelt down and bowed, and her heart fell to the ground.

At this point, she is the wife of the Shen family.

In the cave room, Shen Rui lifted his hijab, and when he saw the little face that he was thinking about, his heart also fell to the ground.

Finally, she was his.

After drinking the Heji wine and performing all kinds of courtesies, before he had time to say a word, Shen Rui was called out to toast.

Ten days ago, Yang Tinghe joined the cabinet, and there are many more guests today than expected.

And the rumors of the Qing Seal Bookstore to save the exam papers spread out, although they finally belonged to the emperor Shengming, but the new science and technology scholars are not stupid, most of them are still grateful for Shen Rui's kindness, and they have also come to the door to ask for a glass of water and wine, and they also have a favor or two, and they are closer to each other.

When fighting for wine, the Jinshi Xiangtuan is not needed, most of these scholars are not strong enough to drink, and they are as red as blood and drunk when they are drunk, or Zhang Hui, Cai Liang and other noble military generals come up, and the wine is dry, helping Shen Rui block a lot.

After a few rounds, Zhang Hui's tongue also became a little bigger, and he patted Shen Rui's arm and said, "I lost it, when I got married, you didn't block the wine for me." ”

Cai Liang laughed and said: "Then I also lose, when I got married and my son was full moon, Shen Er, you didn't block the wine for me." ”

Shen Rui rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said, "Zhang Er, at that time, I was still guarding filial piety, and I was reasonable. Sixth Brother Cai, I didn't recognize you when you got married! However, it's okay to do this, Zhang Er, you are about to become a father when you see it, and your son is on the full moon wine, I will block it back for you! He smiled at Cai Liang and said, "Sixth brother, you will have ten more sons, and I will block them for you when you return to the full moon wine." ”

Cai Liang laughed and said, "For your words, I will also have a few more sons." ”

Zhang Hui shook his head and said, "No, no, Shen Er, this account is not calculated like this, don't you give birth to a son?" You give birth to a son's full moon wine, do you still need me to block it? Do you need me to block it?! ”

Shen Rui couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay, then I'll give birth to one less than you, and let you block one less game." ”

The people around immediately burst into laughter.

Zhang Hui also shouted with a big tongue, "No, no, it's not like that." ”

was in the middle of the excitement, and suddenly Zhang Lun came here, his face was a little ugly.

Today, the British Duke Zhang Mao is going to Yang Tinghe's mansion to attend a banquet, and this side is from the grandson Zhang Lun, as for Zhang Hui, he came to help early, and he is no longer counted among the guests.

When Zhang Lun saw Shen Rui coming over, he first confessed: "I'm really sorry, there is an urgent matter at home, so I have to leave first." I also asked Second Brother Shen to send a message to let my second brother and daughter-in-law come out. ”

Shen Rui couldn't help but be surprised, but he also knew that if there was no big event, they would never be rude and leave first, so he didn't ask much at the moment, ordered someone to pass the word to the inner house, and sent someone to the kitchen to fill the decanting soup in a pot and send it to the British government car.

Shen Rui, as the groom, was not good enough to leave the courtyard full of guests to see off Zhang Lun and Zhang Hui, so Cai Liang and Shen Quan helped to do it for him.

For a while, Cai Liang turned back, didn't mention anything, and still smiled and toasted with Shen Rui.

Over there, Shen Quan went to Shen Zhou's table and whispered, "I'm afraid that the old lady of the British Mansion will be bad." ”

Because it was a happy day, he didn't want to say this to Shen Rui. But with the relationship between Shen Rui and Zhang Hui, if the old lady over there is really gone, why will the Shen Mansion go to mourn tomorrow, it is better to be prepared.

The third master, Shen Run, was weak, and he had already eaten two glasses of wine and went back to rest. At this table are Shen Zhou, Zhu Yunming, Shen Yue, and several old uncles of the Shen family.

Shen Zhou thought about it, the British princess, Mrs. Xuxian, seemed to have been sick for a while, and remembered that at the beginning of the year, the mansion also prepared a gift to visit the sick. If it drags on from the New Year to this time, I'm afraid it's serious.

"I see, let's wait for the news." Shen Zhou sighed, after all, there was a happy event in the mansion. If the people over there are really gone tomorrow, this new bridegroom will go to mourn, which is also a bit unlucky.

Shen Rui toasted from table to table, even if there were brothers to help block the wine, he had to drink a lot, and at this time, he was carried back to the cave room by shaking under his feet.

The children of the Wuxun family still had the idea of listening to the hole in the corner, but the scholarly family did not allow this, and Changshou politely invited all the children of Xungui out, and carefully invited the surroundings again.

In the cave room, the maids waited for the newlyweds to go to their coats, and then they retreated one after another.

Shen Rui, who was drunk on the bed, narrowed his eyes, pushed Yang Tian, who was sitting stiffly, and said vaguely: "Hao Tian'er, I'm thirsty, help me bring a pot of tea, and you want to drink the teapot to quench your thirst." ”

When Yang Tianzheng felt a little embarrassed and overwhelmed, he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard him say this, got up and went to the table, really took the whole teapot, and helped him up to drink water.

Shen Rui got up with the strength of Yang Tian's arm, and took two sips of her hand against the spout.

Yang Tian hurriedly said, "Slow down", and while turning around and putting down the kettle, he went to get a handkerchief to wipe his mouth for him. Suddenly, her wrist tightened, and her whole body was pulled by a strong force and fell into his arms.

Before she could exclaim, Xiao Xiaotankou had been blocked, and a mouthful of warm tea was crossed by him.

She was stupid, subconsciously swallowed the water, and made a grunt, so loud that she startled herself.

However, before he could react, his tongue had already begun to attack the city.

It's not the first time he's kissed her, it's just that, before, he's only sucked her lips, and she never knew that she could have a tongue.

She froze there completely, not daring to move, as if she couldn't even breathe, as if her heart had suddenly stopped.

It wasn't until he stopped and whispered in her ear, "Tian'er, my good Tian'er", and her lips and tongue fell on the side of her earlobe and neck, that she seemed to be back to her soul, boom, her face was so hot that it seemed to burst, and she subconsciously wanted to push him away.

The person in his heart and mind was in his arms, and finally belonged to him rightfully, how could he let her push away. smiled and hugged her tighter, and laughed in a low voice: "Tian'er, we are married." ”

She was frozen by this sentence again, and she couldn't move, but she was also a little helpless, and said weakly: "Then don't ......" but couldn't say anything else.

Her voice was soft and glutinous, with a hint of sweetness, and even she felt strange.

And his voice became extremely mellow and low, and his heart trembled when he heard it, and he only said, "Good Tian'er, don't be afraid, don't be afraid......"

It was already quite hot at the end of April, but when Xiaoyi was thrown out of the tent, she still felt cold and unconsciously shrank a little. Immediately, he warmed up, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his tender white skin.

She was trembling with nervousness at first, and her body was tense, but finally she relaxed in his slow reassurance, and then, those joys came out of her heart.

Pain and pleasure at the same time, she trembled and stretched out her hand and took him on the back.

The top of the tent is embroidered with endless entwined lotus, just like densely woven branches.
