Chapter 36: Shen Family Brothers and Sisters

The next day, it was another breezy day. Not far from the Bianhe Rainbow Bridge, there is a mansion, the courtyard of the deep house, the green tiles and red walls, the gatehouse is tall, it is not an ordinary family at a glance, this is the residence of Shen Qian, the deputy envoy of the imperial history of the dynasty.

In the backyard there is a three-story embroidered building with red walls and colored glazed tiles, and fist-sized copper bells hanging from the four corners - this is the attic that Shen Qian built especially for his only daughter, Shen Congrong.

Shen Congrong was sitting in front of the window at the moment framing a painting, which she bought when she met Liang Ziyu on the street that day. A fresh and elegant picture of peach blossoms, the strokes seem to be casual, but they reveal a beautiful charm, making people look as if they smell the fragrance of peach blossoms.

The painter was a bit out of luck, and I don't know what happened now. The scientific examination is seven points by talent, and three points by luck. Her eldest brother Liang may just lack a little bit of luck, and he has been repeatedly not appreciated by the examiners, and in recent years, he has been named Sun Shan in every scientific examination. She felt a little sorry for this friend she had known since childhood......

Just as she was in the fugue, the maid Chunhua ran up panting and said, "Girl, girl, the master asked you to quickly change into new clothes and go to see him."

"What's the matter?"

"I didn't say anything, I just urged to hurry up."

Shen calmly put away the painting, changed into a peach-colored robe, and hurriedly went downstairs to the front yard to see his father. Her father Shen Qian is an unsmiling person, and he has been very strict with his daughter's family education since she was a child.

Entering the study in the front yard, Shen Congrong found that his brother Shen Zhao was also inside.

Shen Qian's wife died early, and because the relationship between the husband and wife was very good, he didn't want his daughter to be treated badly by her stepmother. In addition, he was so focused on officialdom that he didn't have the heart to continue.

Shen Zhao is the son of Shen Qian's eldest brother and sister-in-law, who died early, so Shen Qian succeeded him as a son.

"Rong'er, wait a minute, Dad will take you and your brother to Duanrui Palace."

Shen Qian smiled, he had a very good personal relationship with Prince Duanrui, and seeing that his children were all older, it was time to worry about the marriage of his children. At the same time, he is also worried about his son's career, although this Shen Zhao has become the head of the forbidden army with his kung fu, in the final analysis, he is still a martial artist, and he has no official rank at all.

Shen Qian and Shen Zhao rode horses, Shen calmly sat on a small sedan chair, and the group came to the palace. Wang Ye Zhao Shi was reading in the study, and after listening to the report, he hurriedly asked the three of them to be invited into the study.

Zhao Shi was idle today, and he was looking for Shen Qian to kill two games of chess, and this Lord Shen came.

Shen Qian's father and son entered the study and hurriedly saluted the prince, and Shen Congrong also said a blessing to the prince.

Zhao Shi hugged each other with his hands: "Hahahaha, Lord Shen is so blessed to have such a knowledgeable daughter." ”

Seeing that the prince had changed his usual serious expression and was full of smiles, Shen Qian's nervous heart finally relaxed. He has this problem, every time he sees someone with a higher status than himself, or an official bigger than himself, he is nervous. Therefore, he secretly competed in his heart, and he must make the official bigger, so that there will be fewer and fewer people who make him nervous.

"It just so happens that the princess has been bored and panicked for the past two days, and the two of you go to the back garden to accompany the princess."

After Zhao Shi finished speaking, he motioned for Wang De to lead the two of them over.

There was laughter in the back garden, and I found the pavilion in the middle of the lake. I found a person with a mask on his face, a dummy puppet in one hand, and several luthiers and kabuki on the side. The princess took the little prince to sit at the stone table and drink tea with melon seeds, everyone was smiling and seemed to be in a good mood.

Shen Zhao and Shen Congrong came over to greet the princess and the little prince, and the princess saw that Shen Congrong was coming, and pulled Shen Congrong to sit down. This girl from the Shen family looks like a peugeot, is knowledgeable, and the more she looks at it, the more she likes it.

Shen calmly thanked the princess and sat down to watch the performance together.

It turned out that the performance was "Tianbao Zhugong Tune", which is about the story of Tang Xuanzong, Li Longji and Yang Guifei, and it can be seen that although the performer is a little lame, the performance is still sincere.

“…… On the seventh day of the seventh month, when no one whispered in the middle of the night. In heaven I wish to be a winged bird, and on earth I wish to be a branch. The days are long and sometimes endless, and this hatred lasts forever. ”

Seeing that Shen Congrong's eyes were a little moist at the end, it is rare to have a single person in life, and the white head is not separated.

"Ye Zhenzhen, what are you performing? This son asked you to perform a happy show, what are you doing with this crying and miserable, and you will be pulled down and beaten with twenty whips. ”

Zhao Yan deliberately reprimanded with a straight face.

Liu Jincian is still more merciful today: "Forget it! Never mind! The performance is not bad! Next time you're asked to perform, you're going to put on a witty show, go down! ”

"Thank you, princess, little prince!" Ye Zhenzhen took off her mask and knelt down to thank her.

The more she thought about it when she walked back, the more angry she became, this Zhao Yan was clearly a thorn. Yesterday, I asked Wang De to inform her to prepare for this show, and she didn't sleep all night in order to perform in the garden today. Fortunately, she is smart and has a good memory. I usually hang out and listen to books and watch plays, which comes in handy at this time, and I have thought about it several times before I think about "Tianbao Zhugong Tune" completely.

However, this level has passed, and she can go back to rest and rest, Ye Zhenzhen sighed with relief.

Shen Congrong saw that Ye Zhenzhen was arrested that day, and he felt pity for her, but he couldn't help her, who let her offend the little prince! Now seeing Ye Zhenzhen's lonely figure, it is estimated that the life of the current people in the palace is not easy.

Everyone chatted in the pavilion for a while, Liu Jincia stood up and was about to take Shen Congrong for a walk in the garden, Shen Zhao looked at her thoughtfully.

Liu Jincian understood, and turned to Zhao Yan and said, "Yan'er, you take the calm girl around, and I will talk to Shen Zhao alone." ”

"Alright! Miss Shen, please! ”

Zhao Yan stood up and stretched, in fact, he had already wanted to leave.

When Shen Congrong was a child, she was often taken to the palace by her father to play, so she and Zhao Yan have known each other since childhood. The two often meet, and although they are respectful and orderly, they are not so restrained.

"Calmly, let's go to the Begonia Garden over there."

"Okay!"

didn't take a few steps, Zhao Yan jumped to the front, it seemed that this boy was still childlike.

"Wow, this begonia flower is so beautiful!"

As soon as he entered the Begonia Garden, Shen Congrong's eyes couldn't be removed from the sea of flowers.

"Yes, there used to be a poem written by the master of Wang: a clump of pink plums faded and the new red begonias were smeared...... What's next? ”

Zhao Yan thought for a long time and didn't remember, he turned his head and asked Shen Congrong.

"A clump of pink plums faded and the new red begonias were smeared; It's time to bloom the flowers, and the slightest thorn is out of the berry wall. ”

"That's right! That's it, wonderful! Wonderful! ……”

Zhao Yan looked at Shen Congrong in the sea of flowers, and was distracted for a while, this sister is really getting more and more beautiful.

Shen calmly looked at Zhao Yan shaking his head for a while, and then being stunned for a while. She smiled slightly and couldn't poke him, this little prince was notoriously not fond of reading, but preferred vassal elegance.
