Text Chapter 28
Song Li was still in Dongchang Mansion at this time, and the reason why he thought of Zou Mansion was not because of official business, but because of a new guest.
"Miss Xu, this official is now on a private interview with Weifu, everything is simple, it is really not suitable for a pampered young lady's family to follow around." He smiled and looked at the girl in Chinese clothes not far away, and said kindly, "So please also ask the young lady and the little girl to stay in this town for less, and the official will immediately arrange for someone to send you to respond to Tianfu!" β
said it politely, but he was already scolding in his heart!
If it weren't for the fact that Xu Jingyuan was the daughter of the descendants, and his father and brother were all relatives favored and connived by Emperor Yongle, Song Li really wanted to drive people back to the Dingguo Mansion immediately!
This is not only because Xu Jingyuan was angry with his family, and in a fit of anger, he called a few domestic slaves and servants, left a letter and ran to Shandong to find his best friend Song Jianiang, the most important thing is: Originally, Song Jianiang had dispelled the ambiguous suspicion between Shen Steallan and Xi Fuwei, the young lady of the Xi family, under the persuasion of his father, but as soon as the master came, he chatted with Song Jianiang, and after hearing the news, he said: "Jia Niang, you are also honest!" It would be strange if these two people weren't tired! After all, there are dilapidated squires everywhere, and I have heard more than a dozen or twenty of them all the way to the Xi family! I haven't seen any Jinyi Wei hundred households generously help and give orphans a way to live! β
"How did you get to this Miss Xi family, so good fate?"
Although Song Jianiang was naΓ―ve, she still trusted her father very much, and when she thought of what Song Li said earlier, she said suspiciously: "Ah Jing, you shouldn't think too much, right?" My father said that Brother Shen didn't save their aunt and nephew for nothing, but to let the young lady of the Xi family do things for him! Therefore, in the eyes of Brother Shen Shi, that Miss Xi is actually just a subordinate! β
"Subordinate?" Xu Jingyuan pursed the corners of his lips disdainfully and said, "Those aunts in my brother's room, who wasn't my brother's servant earlier?" He who waited for him to freshen up, change his clothes, put on his meal, and waited for him to go into the tent. Let me tell you, these do the same thing! If you don't do something now, just wait and see! Maybe before you pass the door, someone is ready to call you mother! β
Song Jianiang's face was blue and white, although she was born in wealth, she knew since she was a child that the person she would marry in the future would not be an ordinary person, and it was impossible for her husband to guard herself, but she still had some unrealistic feelings at this age, that is, she hoped that her husband would love each other with her, and there would be no third person.
Especially if he hasn't passed the door at this time, if he is taken advantage of by that Xi Fuwei, even if the Shen family sends people away when they get married in the future, they really feel aggrieved when they think about it.
"It's all shadowless." Song Jianiang's heart was in a mess, and she reluctantly retorted, "Besides, Brother Shen Shi came to Shandong for serious things, where do you have the heart to be in these ups and downs?" β
Xu Jingyuan seemed to smile: "He is just strong at this age, he came to Shandong alone, neither the elders pressed, nor the henchmen and maids to follow, when he met the surnamed Xi, wasn't he sleepy and came to the pillow?" β
Seeing Song Jianiang looking at herself in disbelief, she felt a little speechless: This is not something that a girl who has not been out of the cabinet can say casually.
Especially with her identity.
After a pause, he didn't have much confidence to add, "I listened to what the old aunts in my family said when they talked about people...... But your matter of Brother Shen Shi is really weird: think about it, even if you want to find someone to go to Zou Mansion to be a secret traitor, why do you want to find that Miss Xi family? Originally, the best thing to do is not to attract too many people, otherwise there are so many people staring, what can you do? But since Miss Xi is a beautiful person, can you say that it can not attract attention? β
"After all, the head of the Zou family has a wife, and his wife is said to be not a fuel-efficient lamp!"
"So, is it possible that you, Brother Shen, still expect this Miss Xi family to hook up with Zou Zhihan? Since it's not for the sake of showing beauty, you said that getting a beauty subordinate, in addition to filling your own pocket, what kind of intentions can you have! β
She and Song Jianiang are friends who grew up together, like sisters, and her words are conclusive at this time, so Song Jianiang's heart can't be shaken!
The scene also said that this was impossible, it must have been Xu Jingyuan's suspicion that he was too suspicious and mistaken, so he turned his head and ran to find Song Li, grinding Song Li to find out what Shen Weilan was thinking about Xi Fuwei?
Song Li said a little bit, and when he learned that it was Xu Jingyuan who provoked it, he was secretly angry: From his point of view, I really didn't think it was a big deal for Shen Thief Lan to have a few concubines besides his wife!
After all, how can a noble child live with a wife these days?
It's Song Li himself, and after his career, he also carried several aunts in the backyard!
As long as you know the severity, don't let the concubine climb the head of the main mother, and then stay sober on the issue of inheritance, that is.
To put it mildly, she is a royal princess these days, and she can't help but watch her aunt serve tea to herself!
The emperor can't protect his daughter from this grievance, what is he a scholar?
Helplessly, at his age, he has already seen through the love affair, but it is difficult for the young Song Jianiang not to be entangled.
At this time, pestering his father to stop talking, Song Li was upset, resentful that Xu Jingyuan had nothing to do, and also persuaded his daughter: "You really don't need to care too much about that Miss Xi family!" The Shen family has deep hopes for Shen Stealing Lan, and now every move he makes is under the watchful eye of the Shen family. If he does something that is not good for his future, the Shen family is more anxious than anyone else to stop it! β
There was a pause, "If he offends our family because of Miss Xi's family, it will definitely be detrimental to his future!" β
Do you really think it's so easy to fly on a branch and be a phoenix?
Even if Shen Steallan was dizzy for a while, the whole family up and down the Shen family was not confused!
They also expect Shen Steallan to seize this opportunity to show his face in front of Emperor Yongle, and prepare for the future development of Huang Tengda and the revitalization of the Shen family's lintel!
On this eye, how could it be possible for Shen Weilan to have any stains?
That Xi Fuwei can live to be safe and sound until now, which is enough to prove that she and Shen Steallan are innocent!
β¦β¦ What's more, Song Li sent someone to investigate, and also said that there was no selfish relationship between the two.
But Song Li didn't plan to tell his daughter about this.
After all, this daughter already has a very good intention of turning her elbow outward before leaving the pavilion, and then tell her that she has privately checked the matter of Shen Stealing Lan and Xi Fuwei, and maybe in the future, she will be coquettish and stupid and ask herself to report Shen Steallan's whereabouts to her every day...... He made this trip to do things for Emperor Yongle, not to help his daughter fight for the wind and be jealous.
"Daddy, I know that Brother Shen Shi is an understanding person." Song Jianiang twisted her fingers around the belt of her clothes, frowned slightly, and said, "But that Miss Xi is not!" We didn't know that when she went to Yanzhou Mansion, didn't we hear that she was shrewd and helped the family with things from a very young age? Now her father and brother are gone, only she and her nephew are outcast, and even their identities are forged with the help of Jinyiwei. Why did it fall into such a situation, she couldn't have no idea in her heart! β
However, the Wen family is powerful, although she escaped with her life at this time, but her nephew is still young, and she is only a woman, relying on their aunt and nephew, where can she hope to avenge the Xi family? How could it be impossible not to tighten Brother Shen Shi? β
Song Li said lightly: "You can think of this truth, Shen Steallan will not be clear?" He asked that Xi Fuwei to go to Zou Mansion to do things, didn't he use the conditions of helping the Xi family to avenge their hatred as bait? β
Song Jianiang pursed her lips: "But the Wen family is a big family in Dongchang Mansion, and their status is not below the Zou Mansion." Next, the canal will be built, and this section of the river will be opened, and it is indispensable for them to cooperate! In this case, how could Brother Shen Shi go to the Wen family for the sake of a mere Xi family? If Xi Fuwei was a smart person, she would definitely not believe Brother Shen's promise! In other words, she would not believe Brother Shen's promise to be the boss! β
"So a wise man would believe in a man's promises?" Song Li sneered, "Don't forget that this Xi Fuwei and Wen Xianyun, the son of the Wen family, are still unmarried!" Wen Xianyun is not soft at all when he calculates the Xi family! So if this Xi Fuwei still has a little memory, he should know that a man is ruthless, why the mountain alliance and the sea oath are all false! In this way, let her take the initiative to pick up Shen Thief, I am afraid that Shen Thief Lan will fall in love with her, and she will be busy hiding! β
He was getting impatient.
Because Emperor Yongle was not in the right position, especially the stack of "usurpation" words written on the ground after Fang Xiaoru was cut in half, it completely tore the fig leaf of this emperor.
This led to the fact that since the son of heaven ascended the throne, he was not very at ease with the government and the opposition, otherwise he would not have rebuilt the Jinyi Guard.
Fortunately, Emperor Yongle did not inherit the practice of His Majesty Emperor Taizu slaughtering meritorious heroes.
So an old minister like Song Li is quite proud.
It's just that with such a master who kills his own flesh and blood without mercy, Song Li doesn't dare to rely on his qualifications at all.
The reopening of the canal this time has a great relationship, and Song Li took over this mission, although it has something to do with his appointment as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry and his good at water conservancy projects, but it also shows the trust of Emperor Yongle.
Of course, there is a lot of trust, and so is the responsibility.
If this matter is done well, his position in front of the emperor will certainly be a rising tide, and he can also shade his descendants; If something goes wrong, then not to mention the whole door, it will inevitably plummet, and most of the hard work of the life will be folded into it.
At such a juncture, Song Li would not be confused about her daughter's girlish feelings...... Neither can the most favored daughter.
After all, to put it mildly, if he falls, what good will Song Jianiang do?
At this moment, seeing that her daughter was entangled, after saying a few words, she sent someone to invite Xu Jingyuan to her, and she wanted to send her back to Yingtianfu with Song Jianiang.
He thought about it, and by the way, he called the escort to give his wife a handwritten letter, so that his wife could look at Song Jianiang a little, and he would have less contact with people like Xu Jingyuan in the future.
Of course, I also gave Song Jianiang a good lesson, and told this daughter that as the daughter of a nobleman, she will definitely be a nobleman's wife in the future, what kind of consciousness and mind should she have.
It's just that he planned to do so, and he was confident to suppress Song Jianiang's opposition, but Xu Jingyuan didn't cooperate at all.
After listening to the euphemistic eviction order, the sister of the prince and the niece of Emperor Yongle smiled disdainfully, played with the pendant collar on her chest, and then said slowly: "Song Shangshu's kindness, Miss Ben understands it!" However, on the way here, Miss Ben received an invitation from the Zou Mansion, saying that their old lady would have a birthday next month, and Miss Ben would take the time to go and have a glass of wine...... Miss Ben hadn't decided whether to go or not at the time, but now she was a little interested! β
"Therefore, Song Shangshu is still not busy sending Miss Ben and Sister Jia Niang back, or send us to Zou Mansion first, and after eating that old lady's birthday wine, it is not too late to leave!"
