The spineless actions of several Jinyi guards frightened Shen Congwu into a daze, usually these flamboyant and domineering Jinyi guards even he, the old housekeeper of the Shen Mansion, had to give three points of face. But in the face of such a young man, the other party didn't even let go of the fart and got out. Before leaving, he even returned the silver that he had finally pulled out of his hands.

This made him have to re-examine the young man in front of him, and he was also assessing the position of this young man in that heart.

Everyone in the capital knows that since Zhang Ru stepped down as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, all the descendants have left the Jinyi Guard, and most of them have lost their official positions in the Jinyi Guard.

He couldn't figure out whether this person was Zhang Ru's person or Mu Bin's person, if he was Zhang Ru's person, his biggest backer behind him could be said to be completely useless. On the contrary, if he is Mu Bin's person, then there is a lot to be done here.

Not to mention the status of the young man in front of him in Mu Bin's heart, whether he really fell in love with Shen Honglian, just the irreconcilable contradiction between Mu Bin and Zhang Ru, there is a lot to do.

Fan Tong grinned, a trace of reddish saliva fell from the corner of his mouth, and he casually raised his hand to wipe it: "Old man, I won't trouble you, as long as you tell me your young lady's birthday, I can act as if nothing happened." ”

Shen Congwu glanced at Fan Tong coldly, and snorted coldly: "Boy, the old man doesn't care what your identity is. Marriage is a major event in life, and the words of the matchmaker of your parents, it is not right for you to sneak into the Shen Mansion. What about Jinyiwei, if you really force the old man, it will be a big deal. ”

Fan Tong touched his nose a little embarrassed: "I've told you several times, I really have no way to come over to find her birthday." You old man, how can you talk about it, but the oil and salt don't enter! My surname is Fan Mingtong, and there is only one master in the family who has a strange temper and strong martial arts, where did the order of my parents come from? Honglian She is also alone, between me and her, how can I come to the order of my parents?

Let's talk about the matchmaker's words, if I don't use her eight characters to match my eight characters, and rashly go to the matchmaker to make peace, wouldn't I not take your Shen Mansion in my eyes?

The Shen family has been in tatters for many years, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and its strength should not be underestimated.

You can go to the capital to inquire up and down, who knows my Fan someone, who doesn't give a thumbs up and say hello. ”

"That's why you broke into your house?" Shen Congwu just grabbed the four words of trespassing on the private house, and the matter has come to this point, and he has no other way than to hold on to this.

The matter is getting bigger, and when it comes to the official mansion, who knows if Yin of Shuntian Mansion will dare to take care of Jinyiwei's.

He just wants to take advantage of the fact that this young man has no idea of reporting to the official, so that the young man will not be able to get off the stage, and even if the high-level Jinyiwei is investigated at that time, he will not ignore it.

In other places in the Ming Dynasty, it may be useless to take advantage of reason, but in this imperial city, as long as the person you offend is not the emperor, everyone has to take advantage of the reason and do things.

"What kind of trespassing, the old gentleman is serious, they are all his own family, but what he says is the words of the two families, what is the reason?" A voice came from behind a group of people.

Shen Congwu is highly respected in the Shen Mansion, and when he speaks, others will not interject, so this voice can reach everyone's ears so clearly.

Looking up, I saw a young man in a brocade robe walking with his hands in his hands, the young man's face was calm, a faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth, and his face was angular. But the people behind the young man were all powerful and fierce.

Shen Congwu said coldly: "Who are you!" ”

Within one day, two groups of people came to visit without the master's consent, and they entered and exited the Shen Mansion as if they were in a no-man's land, which made him really uncomfortable.

Neither of the two groups of people looks so easy to mess with.

Although the first group was alone, he had the waist card of the Jinyi Wei Qianhu hidden on his body, and listening to his tone, it seemed that he didn't take the people of the Shen Mansion in his eyes at all. If it weren't for Shen Honglian's sake, he might not need the people behind him to come forward, and he would only be able to calm the Shen Mansion in a moment.

The latter group of people are not ordinary people at first glance, there are no less than hundreds of officials in the capital, but there are really few who dare to bring a dragon-shaped jade pendant.

Zhang Ru didn't care about his attitude, like Fan Tong, he had a certain understanding of the people in the Shen Mansion. Unlike Fan Tong, what he knew was said little by little by Wang Zhou, the long-tongued woman, along the way, and Fan Tong's was found out by himself when he went to Jinyiwei's file.

After showing a bright smile, he glanced at Fan Tongyi, who lowered his head, and Zhang Ru grabbed Shen Congwu's arm very familiarly: "Why is the old gentleman so indifferent." When the girl from Honglian followed her insider, she didn't tell Ben Hou about your uncle. When I saw it today, it was really extraordinary and heroic. ”

"You are" Shen Congwu's attitude immediately improved.

Zhang Ru said: "Zhang Ru and Zhang Wenxuan, the marquis of Ben Dingbian, come uninvited, and please don't be strange to the old gentleman." ”

Shen Congwu didn't have anything to say, he didn't expect that the inconspicuous black boy backstage was really not simple, and even Dingbianhou, a person who rarely asked about trivial matters, could be invited out as a lobbyist.

However, his displeasure was still on his face.

After all, Shen Honglian can be regarded as the last hope of the Shen family, if Shen Honglian marries, their Shen family will really be broken.

Zhang Ru teased: "Elder Shen doesn't plan to invite Ben Hou to sit? ”

A word woke up the dreamer, and Shen Congwu immediately made a gesture of please: "Please, Master Hou!" ”

In the living room, after the guest and host sat down, Zhang Ru gently blew the green tea leaves in the teacup, took a sip and said, "Good tea!" The tea in this capital, except for the palace, I am afraid that only Shen Lao here is the best. ”

Shen Congwu smiled and said, "If Master Hou likes it, you can bring some back later." The old man has no other hobbies, so he can drink tea for the rest of his life. ”

Zhang Rulang said: "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, there are a lot of good teas, but there are not many people who can take tea from the Shen Mansion." ”

He didn't say this too much bias in it, and those who were familiar with Shen Congwu knew that this old man had two reverse scales, one was his niece and granddaughter Shen Honglian, and the other was his favorite-tea!

Those brocade guards dared to take the silver in his pocket, but they might not dare to touch his two scales. The Shen family has declined, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, if he really annoys the old man, he will spend all his family wealth to die alone, but it is a very simple matter.

Shen Congwu's face did not change color and said: "Hou Ye likes it, that is the blessing of old decay." ”

Then, there was a long silence, both sides were waiting for the other to speak first, but both of them were calm people, and no one spoke for a long time.

It wasn't until Zhang Ru drank the tea in the cup that Fan Tong was obviously a little restless, and Zhang Ru took the lead in breaking the silence: "This rash visit is not for anything else, just for my unsuccessful brother." ”

Shen Congwu said with a smile: "It's okay, since it's the Hou Ye's person, we can not pursue the charge of trespassing on the house." ”

Fan Tong was in a hurry, and just about to open his mouth, he was immediately stopped by Wang Zhou, who was quick-eyed.

Broadly speaking, Zhang Ru and Shen Congwu are opponents of the same level, and interfering with people like them will only make things worse.

In a narrow sense, although Zhang Ru said that they were brothers, there was a dignity in everything after all, if they didn't understand the rules and talked nonsense, it was secondary to Zhang Rusheng not being angry, the main thing was that he was afraid that Zhang Ru would be looked down upon by others.

Among the powerful, the Zhang family is a rising star after all, and now in the entire Dingbian Hou Mansion, except for Zhang Ru, it seems that there is not even a decent hostess.

Only after Zhang Ru really spreads his branches will the elite group really accept him.

Zhang Ru said lightly: "Shen Lao's words are a bit out-of-the-box, the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister." The Jinyi Guard is the guard of the Son of Heaven, and he has the responsibility and obligation to protect the integrity of the imperial city.

What is the origin of the Shen family, there is no need for this Hou to say, if Shen Lao says that he is trespassing on a private house, then ask Shen Lao to go to Shuntian Mansion to complain immediately.

Ben Hou really wanted to see what level of officials in this Shuntian Mansion dared to stop the Jinyi Guard from detecting the descendants of the former thieves. ”

There was no anger in his words, but every word that came out was threatening Shen Congwu.

What is the origin of the Shen family? In the past, Shen Wansan's descendants, after Shen Wansan was confiscated in Yunnan because of Hu Weiyong's case, Taizu remembered Shen Wansan's contribution to building the city, so he let go of the eldest son of the Shen family's long house.

Is it wrong for the court to look at you descendants of thieves?

If Shen Congwu really stabbed the matter to Shuntian Mansion, I am afraid that the Shuntian Mansion will not only not hold Fan Tong responsible, but will also hold the Shen family responsible.

The naked threat made Shen Congwu completely confused, and was told to his face that his ancestor was a thief, and it was the first time he had encountered it in his life.

After being silent for a long time, he said: "Hou Ye came to the door, could it be that he just threatened the old decay?" ”

Zhang Ru said lightly: "Ben Hou is not here to threaten you, but to give your Shen family a good umbrella." This umbrella is very strong, as long as the holy family of Benhou is not lost, it can protect you for a day. As for whether you need such an umbrella, it depends on what Shen Lao thinks. ”

Shen Congwu said helplessly: "Can Master Hou save the Shen family on the face of the young lady?" ”

Zhang Ru said proudly: "You promised to marry, and I promised to keep your Shen family, it's just such a simple transaction." Shen Honglian's side, I will naturally let Fan Tong figure out a way by himself, if Shen Honglian does not agree, Ben Hou will definitely not force it, and Ben Hou's words will be effective for a long time. There is only one condition for Ben Hou, in the personal matter of the two of them, you old guy who is about to go into the ground, don't say a word. ”

Shen Congwu was silent, the conditions thrown by Zhang Ru were indeed very tempting, and he couldn't wait to agree immediately, but when he thought of Shen Honglian, his heart became entangled again.
