Chapter 127: The Son of the Qi Family
This kind of rainy weather, people can't lift their spirits at all, after Sheng Zi'an entered the bed, it didn't take a while, he fell asleep again, in the dream, he only felt that something fell on his face, a little itchy.
Sheng Zi'an opened his eyes with his spirit, and saw a person sitting on the edge of his bed, stretching out his hand to pull away the hair covering his cheeks.
"His Royal Highness?" Sheng Zi'an spoke, and found that his voice was a little hoarse.
Xiao Jue stood up, personally poured a cup of tea for Sheng Zi'an, and handed it to Sheng Zi'an's mouth, Sheng Zi'an took a few sips, felt that his throat was much more comfortable, leaned back, and only felt that his head was groggy.
Sheng Zi'an realized that he should have had a cold, otherwise he wouldn't be so unenergetic today.
"Why is your face so ugly?" Xiao Jue saw her look sad and a little worried.
"It's okay, maybe I went out to blow the wind yesterday, and it was a little cold, wait a minute, I'll make a prescription myself, grab two pills and eat it first."
Sheng Zi'an shook his head nonchalantly.
"Why did His Royal Highness come a little early today?" Sheng Zi'an looked at the smile on the corner of his mouth: "Is there something good?" β
"It's not good things to talk about, it's just that I want to discuss something with you." Xiao Jue helped her tuck the corners of the quilt and showed Sheng Zi'an a drawing on the table.
"What is this?" Sheng Zi'an's result drawing, which is painted is a mansion, with many courtyards in it, much larger than Shengfu, which looks very magnificent.
"The emperor's new reward for the house, the Ministry of Industry got up early and brought the drawings of the house, and asked me how to clean up the house, the house rewarded by the emperor is all done by the Ministry of Industry, my drawings come to show you, you see, do you have any ideas?"
"Rewarded by the emperor?" Sheng Zi'an looked at the drawings, a little incredulous.
"What kind of eyes are you?" Xiao Jue smiled and tapped on the bridge of Sheng Zi'an's nose with his fingertips:
"No matter what you think in your heart, the emperor still loves me the most, a few days ago, the emperor is still ready to give me some compensation for the things that came out of Guide, and it is very common to reward the house, and the emperor has rewarded the house to his favorite ministers."
Sheng Zi'an originally thought that the emperor always had this kind of reward recently, to show his favor for the prince, whether there was going to be any big move behind the scenes, whether he had to watch out for something in advance, after listening to Xiao Jue's explanation, Sheng Zi'an was relieved a lot.
It's good to follow His Royal Highness the Prince, but I'm always worried.....
Sheng Zi'an usually always persuades himself, he can't let himself occupy all the good things, right?
"Come, while you still have a little energy, come and see this house, you will be the mistress of this house in the future."
"Which yard do you like?"
Sheng Zi'an's finger swiped over the drawing, and finally stopped in a courtyard in the center of the back, not far from the front of the courtyard is a dug pool, in summer, the place with water is always cooler, and it is okay to freeze in winter.
After Sheng Zi'an finished choosing, he remembered and asked, "Which courtyard did His Royal Highness the Prince choose?" β
I only felt that His Royal Highness the Prince raised his eyebrows, and asked with some surprise: "Could it be that after we get married, do we still have to live in two courtyards?" β
Sheng Zi'an listened to Xiao Jue's words, first stunned for a moment, and then a little puzzled, aren't the men of the royal family all in their own separate courtyards? How can anyone be in the same yard with his wife all the time?
Seeing Sheng Zi'an's surprised look, Xiao Jue was a little amused: "What are you thinking about all day?" β
Sheng Zi'an closed his mouth and continued to ponder the drawing.
"Zi'an, what I told you before, did you never pay attention to?" His Royal Highness the Prince was a little reluctant, took out the drawings from Sheng Zi'an's hand, and forced her to look at herself.
Being watched by his gaze, Sheng Zi'an blushed a little, and turned his head to the side: "His Royal Highness the Prince of the World stay away from me, don't be contaminated." β
Sheng Zi'an spoke with a nasal voice, and Xiao Jue saw that she was indeed uncomfortable, stood up, and touched her hair.
"Don't bother you, I'll let the Ministry of Engineering clean up the yard you chose as soon as possible, but it is estimated that I can't live in it when I get married, and it's not easy to start construction in winter, so we'll move in tomorrow spring."
"You have a good rest, and I'll come back to see you in a few days." Xiao Jue saw Sheng Zi'an waving his hand without any nostalgia, and even retracted his head into the quilt, and sighed: "Little ..... without conscience"
Sheng Zi'an let Aoyagi in, prescribed a prescription by herself, and asked Aoyagi to grab two pairs of medicines, and when she came back, she was still carrying a few paper bags of snacks in her hands, and it was still hot to the touch.
"The prince sent it to him, saying that if he can't eat, he has to use some, otherwise his body can't stand it."
Sheng Zi'an drank the medicine and fell asleep again, Aoyagi originally wanted to report to Sheng Zi'an what Sheng Zi'an explained yesterday, but looking at his wife's appearance, he was not in the mood to listen to it now, so he closed his mouth and burned the charcoal brazier in the house warmer.
When Sheng Zi'an woke up again, his head was much clearer, but his nose and throat were very uncomfortable, and after drinking a glass of honey, Aoyagi said: "Madam, the matter you asked Ah Qicha to check is now clear." β
Sheng Zi'an motioned for her to continue.
"The son of the Qi family, in recent days, he has returned to the capital."
Sheng Zi'an was stunned for a moment when she heard the news, this princess of the Qi family, only returned to Jiangnan some time ago because the old man in the family was not in good health, why did she come back so soon?
"What did he come back for?" Sheng Zi'an was strange.
"I heard that the academy in the capital is better than his academy in Jiangnan, the teaching is better, if you want to be a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, you still have to study at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the Beijing Academy said so..."
"Where is he now?"
"It is said that he moved out of the Qi family's big mansion and lived alone, very close to the academy where he studied, and it was a small house." Aoyagi replied.
"The son of the Qi family hasn't decided to marry yet, right?" Sheng Zi'an was a little funny.
Mrs. Sheng's news is really well-informed, she is grounded in the house, and she even knows when her son will return to the capital?
What Sheng Zi'an didn't know was that the son of the Qi family didn't come back with great fanfare this time, but came back secretly, and the matter between him and Sheng Zi'an and Sheng Qing'an was known by the old man, and the old man felt that his grandson's reputation in the capital was not good, and he wanted him to go to Jiangnan, and set up a family in Jiangnan, so that he could collect his heart and return to the capital to participate in the imperial examination.
But in Jiangnan, the old man's discipline was too strict, so that Qi Xuan, who was doted on by his mother, felt that he couldn't breathe, and he didn't like the women in Jiangnan, and felt that the women in Jiangnan were too supple.
He misses Sheng Qing'an in the capital a little, he and Sheng Qing'an have a little hazy feelings, Sheng Qing'an is his distant cousin, she looks delicate, and when she doesn't get it, he leaves the capital, so the more he doesn't get it, the more itchy his heart is.
He was even thinking about Sheng Zi'an, but he was just thinking about it, he knew that now Sheng Zi'an was not something he could touch casually, in case he annoyed His Royal Highness, his own lives would not be enough to compensate......
He took advantage of the old man's poor health and had no energy to look at himself, so he secretly ran back to the capital, and then returned to the former academy.
Originally, few people knew about him and Sheng Qing'an, but since Sheng Zi'an and His Royal Highness the Prince were married, there was nowhere to escape from this matter, and Sheng Zi'an had no influence at all, but he was different, he was rumored to have hooked up with the daughter of the Sheng family.
Originally, Mrs. Sheng didn't really want her daughter to marry Qi Xuan, she felt that her youngest daughter was more beautiful than her eldest daughter, the eldest daughter could marry the young master of the Guogong Mansion, and her youngest daughter could also climb the branches.
So she didn't let her daughter have much contact with Qi Xuan, but she released the gossip that Qi Xuan was enthusiastically pursuing her daughter, wanting to arouse the desire of the high-ranking and powerful to marry.
There is such a vague relationship between Sheng Qingan and Qi Xuan, also because Sheng Qingan wants to suppress Sheng Zi'an everywhere, since Sheng Zi'an and His Royal Highness the Prince of the World have made a marriage, Sheng Qing'an's interest in Qi Xuan has faded a lot.
But now Qi Xuan is the best person that Mrs. Sheng can choose, at least Qi Xuan's mother is related to herself, and after her daughter gets married, life will not be too sad, Mrs. Sheng thought so.
So she whispered to her daughter that she must find an opportunity to climb Qi Xuan, and she must not let him run away!
Sheng Qing'an was reluctant, but he had to admit that what his mother said was right, Sheng Qing's peace of mind was higher than the sky, but his father's cruelty also made Sheng Qingan realize that if he couldn't marry Qi Xuan, his father didn't know what kind of person he would marry him, if it was really the kind of quirk that Young Master Gao had a quirk, he was afraid that he would die soon...
Even if he was unwilling in his heart, Sheng Qingan had to do what Mrs. Sheng said.
When she was recuperating in Aunt Bai's side room, she heard that His Royal Highness the Prince had come to Sheng Mansion to see Sheng Zi'an again, she was lying on the bed, tears flowed out of the corners of her eyes, and flowed into her sideburns, she was so sick that she didn't have the strength to raise her hand, and she hated Sheng Zi'an to death in her heart.
When she was finally able to walk on her own, she listened to her mother's words and was about to please Sheng Shangshu and make a tame appearance, just when Sheng Shangshu asked her to go to the main house for dinner.
Sheng Shangshu didn't care about his daughter at all, he now felt that Mrs. Sheng was a vicious woman, but if Sheng Qingan was taken away from her for a while, Sheng Qingan would be able to listen to him again, not Mrs. Sheng's.
