Chapter Twenty-Three: Take the Four Girls Back Home
Scouts?
Shen Naiqing instantly understood, "Your Highness wants me to get close to the Gu family and get the news?" ”
"Yes."
Shen Naiqing sneered, "Does Your Highness take me too seriously, I joined forces with His Highness only for the Jiang family, and the conflict between His Highness and the Gu family is none of my business." ”
She had said before that the Jiang family would not become a knife in the hands of the four princes.
"If Your Highness's words today are to wary of the Jiang family, I would understand, but the Jiang family has already told His Highness that His Highness will get rid of Meng Song and give His Highness the opportunity to explore his military power, and the other Jiang families are unwilling and disdainful to touch it."
Meng Tanglin's impression of Shen Naiqing was silent and could be satisfied with anything, and the appearance of suddenly erecting spikes today was particularly attractive.
He lowered his head and smiled, "It's this king who has crossed the line." ”
"But this king found that Miss Shen is also a wonderful person."
Shen Naiqing frowned when she heard this, and then she pointed out the purpose of seeing him today, "My family has already entered Beijing, and I also ask His Royal Highness to speed up the process, and he can also tentacle the military power early." ”
"Okay." Meng Tanglin agreed extremely happily.
Shen Naiqing always felt that something was weird, but when the words came, she asked to resign and leave.
The next day, there was another fluctuation between the DPRK and China.
Zuo Cheng's corruption was added to the hammer, the Gu family's father and son resigned one after another, but the saint did not agree, and the boss of the Shen family returned to Beijing for disaster relief and was promoted to the post of secretary of the Ministry of Industry.
Since March, the haze that has gathered over the Shen family has finally seen a ray of sunshine in.
When Mrs. Shen heard the news of her eldest son's return to Beijing, she called a servant to stop her as soon as she left the court.
Uncle Shen hurried to the Tan Courtyard in his official uniform, and when the old lady saw him, she rushed straight to the point.
"Yesterday, the Jiang family came to make trouble, they swaggered in front of the door, and dared to threaten the Shen family with arrows!"
"You are now an official scholar, and the Jiang family has not yet turned over, you should strike first, and you must not let the Jiang family climb on our head to threaten!"
Uncle Shen frowned, "Mrs. Shen has already told me about yesterday's incident, and the Jiang family was convicted for ten years and suddenly overturned the case, I am afraid that there is an inside story, and what my mother said is simple, but it is extremely difficult to do." ”
"Afraid? He has not turned over and returned to the dynasty now, and the fall of the Jiang family must have been attacked by a group, not only our Shen Mansion is worried about the Jiang family's return to Beijing. ”
The old lady remembered yesterday's humiliation and became furious, "The Jiang family must not be allowed to return to Beijing!" ”
At this time, the housekeeper came quickly, and when he saw the two masters, he said respectfully, "Old lady, uncle, Lord Yun has come to the door." ”
Meng Song?!
The fourth girl of the Shen family is dead, and before Uncle Shen can figure out what Meng Song meant, he heard the old lady say sharply, "Tell him to go back, the Shen family will never have anything to do with him again!" ”
Uncle Shen only returned to Beijing yesterday, and he didn't know about the dirty affair between Meng Song and Shen Naifeng, and he was very puzzled when he saw that Old Madam Shen was very angry.
He persuaded the old lady to calm her anger, and after the old lady explained the reason, she was first shocked, and then heard that Shen Naifeng died in the fire, so she fell silent.
In this way, isn't the younger brother ...... "cut off the incense of his offspring."
Uncle Shen felt that this was too ominous and ominous, so he didn't say it, but the old lady understood what he meant, "I'm afraid, I have already accepted a few concubines for him, and his descendants will have them." ”
Uncle Shen pondered for a long time, and finally said, "If Prince Yun knows that the third girl is dead, he will definitely cherish his feathers and no longer have dealings with the Shen family, he knows that there must be something important to dare to come to the door in this matter, his mother will call him in first, and his son will see him for you." ”
Old Madam Shen now takes Uncle Shen as the main backbone, and after thinking about it for a while, she asked the housekeeper to lead Meng Song to the hall.
When Uncle Shen walked to the hall, Meng Song was already sitting there drinking tea, and when he saw him coming, Meng Song said, "Shen Shangshu was promoted, and this king congratulated him first." ”
"Lord Yun doesn't have to be polite." Uncle Shen behaved politely, "The entanglement between the prince and the Shen family, the official already knows, and I ask the prince to explain his intention first." ”
Meng Song's expression remained unchanged, "Shen Fourth Girl went to Yueling Temple in early March and died unexpectedly, this king thinks Shen Shangshu also knows, but a few days ago, this king met a woman who looks like four girls. ”
"This king is ashamed of the Shen family, and I only hope that this news can revive the Shen family."
"The prince is saying that Naiqing is not dead?" Uncle Shen's eyes were solemn when he heard this, "Where did the prince see Naiqing?" ”
"Now it seems that he lives in a small mansion in the south of the city, and this king is worried about seeing his eyes, so he ordered someone to follow him to his residence and determined the location before coming to Shen Mansion to talk about it."
Meng Song's eyes were full of sincerity, and he had an elegant demeanor on weekdays, which made it difficult for people to be suspicious.
Uncle Shen sent Meng Song away, asked the servant to summon Second Master Shen to Tanyuan, and hurriedly went to find Old Madam Shen.
Shen Naiqing is still alive, which means that there is hope for the Shen family when he is a totalitarian minister.
And Meng Song walked out of the Shen family, and glanced back at the door that was still full of arrow holes, and he had time to change in the future, and a cold color crossed his eyes.
Shen Naiqing wants the golden cicada to get out of the shell, and he also wants to see if he has the ability.
In the Hongchuan Palace, Shen Naiqing looked at the rows of bookshelves in the Yi Pavilion, and his eyes were full of yearning.
"Hey, is this row of bookshelves full of ghosts and ghosts?"
"Well, there are a lot of wild anecdotes." The handsome young man was dressed in an inky dark gold brocade robe, with a slender figure, noble and elegant.
"There are a lot of unique books here, if you like it, you can read it from time to time, and you can borrow it."
"That's great." It would be even more perfect if these books were hers.
Shen Naiqing doesn't have a favorite liking, and after being reborn, he loves nonsense very much, and if he has nothing to do all day, he will have it.
"By the way, I heard my eldest cousin say that all of your Gu family have resigned and dismissed?"
"Well, but the saint didn't agree, maybe it's just for show." Gu Tingnian took down the book that she couldn't reach for her and handed it to her.
"To retreat as advance, first consume the jealousy of the saints, from light to dark, and do things in secret with less scruples and be happy and wanton."
"It's a good idea." Shen Naiqing shook the lone book in his hand, "I'll take this back today?" ”
Gu Tingnian nodded, then saw the girl frowning, and said, "Yesterday, the fourth prince wanted me to be his spy, but it was Meng Song who provoked the relationship, and I think the fourth prince will make a move on the Gu family in the near future." ”
Gu Tingnian's focus is not here, "Meng Song knows your news?" ”
"Well, Xu saw me somewhere." Shen Naiqing didn't plan to hide, she just had to spread the news of the death of the four girls of the Shen family.
"Your injuries haven't healed yet, be careful, my uncle is still waiting for me at home, so I'll leave first."
The woman looked extremely serious and admonished, Gu Tingnian lowered her eyes to hide the fluctuations in her eyes, hummed softly, and sent her to the door of the mansion.
He saw the carriage depart, and was about to turn back and leave, when he heard a man calling him.
"Yo, how do you know that when I return home at this time, are you worried that my eldest brother will come early to wait?"
Gu Tingnian glanced sideways at the hand on his shoulder and shook it off slightly.
"Fang Cai sent Miss Shen out, you think too much."
"I thought you knew that you felt sorry for your brother." Gu Tingchuan sighed, "My stupid brother." ”
Gu Tingnian ignored him and continued to walk forward, Gu Tingchuan hurriedly caught up when he saw this, "Hey, wait." ”
"I have news about the Qinglou you asked me to check, don't go!"
"Go back to the attic."
The two brothers entered the house, and Gu Tingchuan lay down on the bamboo chair, "When will the Holy Lord allow me to go home and lose all my family property?" ”
Gu Ting glanced at him young, and pointed at the bookcase with his index finger, "Say." ”
"What? Oh, the thing about the Qinglou. Gu Tingchuan sat down, "I thought it was Meng Song's in the Qinglou, but I recently found out that the owner of the Qinglou had someone else, but Meng Song and the boss were very close, and I don't know what the purpose is." ”
"I haven't found out the details of the owner of the Qinglou, but he seems to be a businessman who travels between the two countries."
Gu Tingnian frowned, "Send someone to keep an eye on it first, and I'll look for Jiang Qingqiao when I go back, his eldest brother is also going back and forth between the two countries to do business, maybe he can know something." ”
However, Meng Song also provoked the Shen family without the help of the Jiang family, and dared to take the initiative to provoke the four princes......
"Big brother can find out where the private soldiers of King Yun's Mansion are?"
"According to Miss Shen, it will take some time to find a clue, and the fourth prince has been looking for it again, I'm afraid he is hiding very deeply."
Gu Ting snorted, his eyes casually glanced at the sword hanging in the room, and said, "This morning, the assassin who attacked the assassin on the Assassin Saint in the Spring Hunt is there any whereabouts?" ”
"Not yet, but the arrow in you, the master who made the arrow below said that the wood of the arrow body seems to have come from the Gengnan Forest Farm in the suburbs of Beijing."
Gu Tingchuan recounted the old master's original words, "There are some trees in the forest farm that are not found in ordinary forest farms, and he is very impressed, and I have already looked for someone to check who the owner of the farm is." ”
Gu Tingnian's brows furrowed, "I will resign again tomorrow, if the Holy Lord is unwilling to ask for illness directly." Those deep phoenix eyes were dyed with a hint of coldness, "He wanted to slash the Gu family and then kick him out of Beijing like the Jiang family, but he didn't let him get his wish." ”
In the Hongchuan Palace, in order to retreat under the nose of the saint, Shen Naiqing, who was walking to the entrance of the alley and preparing to go home, was also full of coldness.
"It seems that Shen Shangshu has been waiting for a long time."
"Naiqing." Second Master Shen said in a trembling voice, "Naiqing, you are living well, why don't you go home?" ”
The blows have been continuous in recent days, and the eldest brother of the Yue family came to the door that day and scared him so much that his soul was gone, and every night and night he dreamed of sending his wife to ask for his life, and now that Shen Naiqing has returned to the Shen family, he will definitely be able to bless him well.
Uncle Shen was very calm, "Lord Yun is right, you really didn't die, four girls." ”
"Did you deliberately fake your death to leave the Shen Mansion, or did you have other intentions?"
The corners of Shen Naiqing's lips were slightly hooked, and the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, "It's both, but I think Shen Shangshu should be able to guess the reason." ”
"Naiqing, why do you still have a book, this is your uncle."
Second Master Shen emphasized the word uncle, and he still remembered that day the old lady said that she wanted Shen Naiqing to be the daughter of Uncle Shen.
He is such a daughter, the Jiang family will not touch him again, the daughter can still predict the future, and in the future, she will sit on the throne of the queen, he will be the emperor's father-in-law, and the position of the abbot cannot be given to others.
Shen Naiqing ignored Shen Erye's words, she held the book in her arms and said with a light smile, "The two of you have been waiting here for a long time, but do you want to go in and have a cup of tea?" ”
"Don't drink it." Shen Shangshu knew that there was a Jiang family in the courtyard, so he waited at the entrance of the alley.
He waved his hand to the servant behind him, "Take the four girls back to the house." ”
