Chapter 22 Be a spy for the king
Shen Naifeng was about to probe to see who he was looking at, when he saw him turn around, "I believe your words." ”
"Brother Song, you finally believe me, how can I lie to you, I did it to Shen Naiqing in private but I didn't want her to marry ......"
Before she could burst into a smile, she listened to him, "But in the future, you must never use those careful thoughts again, and honestly raise a baby in the palace." ”
Shen Naifeng touched his lower abdomen when he heard this, nodded, full of happiness, and he didn't even notice the impatience and coldness in the man's tone.
"Brother Song, let's go home."
At the gate of the mansion, Shen Naiqing lifted the carriage curtain and said to Jiang Qingqiao inside, "Little cousin, you go back to the house first, and I will go back after walking with Miss Jun for a while." ”
"Then you write a letter for me to beg my eldest brother."
Jiang Qingqiao sat on the ground and raised the price, and Shen Naiqing reluctantly agreed, so he asked the horseman to leave.
"Can Jiu'er ask Sister Qingshi a question?"
Seeing the curious look on the little girl's face, Shen Naiqing raised her eyebrows lightly and walked unhurriedly.
"Say, what?"
"Sister Qingshi is very familiar with the cold-faced little boy of the Gu family?" Jun Jiu'er's big watery eyes shone brightly, and the words gossip were written on the left and right sides of his face.
"Last time my sister fell into the water, he didn't hesitate to save you, and he is familiar with your family, today you came to Hongchuan Palace, according to my father, the cold-faced little boy was injured, and my sister came to visit him and had a good relationship."
"Cold-faced boy?" Shen Naiqing recalled Gu Tingnian's cold look, and felt that it was very appropriate.
She thought for a moment and said, "We're ...... There are mutual demands and interests. ”
"Hmm, okay." Jun Jiu'er reluctantly believed the words of the party.
Then he excitedly took her hand and quickened his pace, "Sister Qingshi, let's take a walk, I'll take you to a treasure shop, his jewelry is exquisite and novel, the shopkeeper is very low-key, and she is still a girl!" ”
Shen Naiqing rarely met a cheerful and lively person like Jun Jiu'er, so he let her wish, and finally Xunyin and Jun Jiu'er's maid held a stack of brocade boxes, and finally waited for the two to say goodbye.
Shen Naiqing didn't walk far, and the little girl behind him said loudly, "I'll go to my sister another day, my sister has to wait for me at the house!" ”
Jun Jiu'er's maid pulled the corner of her clothes with one hand, and said helplessly, "Don't call the girl...... It's time to go home. ”
Back in the small courtyard in the south of the city, Xunyin put down the large and small brocade boxes, his arms were sore, "This girl is really enthusiastic......"
Shen Naiqing put the things in place one by one, and then smiled lightly, "I like her temperament very much, the flowers in the greenhouse, even the roots and branches are clean and pure, and people are reluctant to let her be contaminated with a little dirt." ”
"If the lady is still there, the girl should also have the same temperament as the girl, alas, ......"
"What is a pity, I have never been bad like this, I have been smoothed out, I know what I want and work hard for it."
Shen Naiqing didn't care, glanced at the transparent and moist jade bracelet in the brocade box, she handed it to Xunyin, and her cold eyebrows and eyes were dyed with a gentle smile, with a hint of pampering.
"Oh, little flower, this is for you."
"This pendant is waiting for the rainbow eagle to come back to her, she is good at using the sword, and it is not bad to use it as a pendant."
The news of the assassination of the saint finally spread, but after checking for a long time, I don't know where the assassins came from, but the queen's injury was actually related to the right of the previous dynasty, and even the empress and concubine with the right were also punished and grounded by the emperor.
Hongchuan Palace, Yi Loft.
Since the Gu family brothers entered the door, they have been listening to Gu Wangye's angry venting of dissatisfaction.
"The queen and Ting Nian's injuries have not healed so far, and the emperor only punished a few words of Youcheng lightly and severely, and let him reflect on it for a few days and then hastily do it!"
"And the imperial concubine, grounded for three months, she dared to murder the queen, just let her grounded, where is the heart of the saint, when the Gu family is a fool, it can't be done!"
Looking at his father's angry look, Gu Tingnian lowered his eyes lightly, "I can't enter the court, my eldest brother is only the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard, and the saint has already spread out his mind under the sun." ”
When Gu Tingchuan heard this, he glanced at Gu Tingnian, who was calm and calm, and followed his words, "Xiao Nian is right, father, the Gu family has been squeezed by the saint to the point that there is no way out, the edict of the imperial concubine a few days ago is not the last demonstration of the saint against the Gu family." ”
"Son......" Gu Tingchuan gently put the sword on the bookcase at his side and arched his hand towards Gu Wangye, "My son plans to resign from the post of deputy commander and no longer be an official." ”
On the side, a young man in an ink-colored robe tapped his index finger lightly on the table, and the movement was very shallow, at this time, it sounded in the ears of Gu Wangye like an alarm bell, and the atmosphere in the room was solemn and cold.
Gu Wang Ye let out a breath of turbidity, "The acquiescence of the Gu family's daughter must be the queen seems to have troubled the Gu family for a long time, and it has also hindered the royal family for decades, and the Gu family has long been a thorn in the side of the royal family. ”
"That's it, Gu family...... Resigned to fate. ”
In the seasonal building, Shen Naiqing was dressed in elegant and gentle green clothes, sat in the wing room and waited, and after a while, she heard a few chaotic footsteps, she subconsciously straightened her waist, and her eyes were slightly nervous.
The door was pushed open, and Jiang Qingqiao led the person behind him in, "Qingshi, look who's coming!" ”
Shen Naiqing hurriedly stood up, and Uncle Jiang, who had a pair of peach blossom eyes at the front, came over with a brocade box, his eyes were full of pampering, and his sharp breath became soft.
"Oh, Xiao Qingshi has grown up, but do you remember my uncle? My uncle can bring you a gift from the frontier, this is your uncle's mother's hand-sewn clothes, don't dislike it, take it. ”
Shen Naiqing hurriedly took it, "Don't dislike it, don't dislike it." ”
"Uncle has been traveling all the way, so I will sit down and eat first."
Uncle Jiang took a small brocade box and handed it over, and his words were very brief, "Your sister gave it to you." ”
"She's waiting for you to go back."
The eldest cousin Jiang Qingchen was afraid that Shen Naiqing would misunderstand, so Wen smiled and explained for his father, "He said that the Jiang family will restore its innocence, so he will take you back to the Jiang family, and your cousin has cleaned up the room for you early and is waiting for you to pass." ”
"I know." Shen Naiqing understands the temperament of the two uncles very well, the eldest uncle is the head of the Jiang family, who has been in the army for the longest time, and has always been quiet and introverted.
The little uncle is a kind and casual person, Jiang Qingqiao's temperament is to follow the little uncle, as for the eldest cousin, there is a smiling tiger.
The Jiang family was able to get up from the quagmire in a short time, and most of them were due to Jiang Qingchen.
The Jiang family knew that the reversal of the case was planned by Shen Naiqing, and they were very moved and relieved to mention this matter, and the family had a reunion dinner with He Lele, and then they were ready to leave.
When getting into the carriage, Uncle Jiang asked Jiang Qingchen to send Shen Naiqing back to his home, and pulled Jiang Qingqiao to meet his old friends and return home later.
In the carriage, Jiang Qingchen played chess with Shen Naiqing,
"What happened to the case of the Empress Gu family?"
"The Holy One is upright and protects Youcheng and the imperial concubine, and the Gu family has no choice but to swallow this bitter fruit."
Jiang Qingchen hummed softly and was not surprised at all, "How is Zuo Cheng, I deliberately searched for a lot of evidence, how is it going?" ”
"I have been ordered by the Holy Lord not to go to court, waiting to find out." Shen Naiqing thought for a while and said, "Zuo Cheng has been cautious, I'm afraid I have to boil it out." ”
"It's okay, the Jiang family can afford to wait." Jiang Qingchen didn't care.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the mansion, and Shen Naiqing saw that Jiang Qingchen didn't plan to get out of the carriage, and asked suspiciously, "Where is the eldest cousin going?" ”
"You're still waiting in the house, my brother is going to pick up your uncles, they practiced martial arts in their early years, and I'm worried that old friend won't be able to stand it."
Shen Naiqing felt that there was still some meaning in these words, but Jiang Qingchen had already lowered the curtain, and the carriage gradually moved away.
"Strange...... What an old friend, so eager to meet ......"
The woman in the green shirt muttered and walked towards the courtyard, and in the alley not far away, the man in black turned and left.
The sun was setting, and it was supposed to be the time to go home for dinner, but the gate of Shenhou's Mansion was full of people.
The magnificent gate was used as a target, full of sharp arrows, and arrow feathers kept flying nails in, and the gate of the Shen Mansion did not dare to open it at all, for fear that as soon as the door was opened, it would be pierced through the heart by an arrow.
Not far from the door, a young man with a pair of peach blossom eyes handed a bag of quivers to the two middle-aged people on the left and right, and said in his mouth, "Dad, uncle, don't run out, I haven't started it yet." ”
The old lady of the Shen family and the second master of the Shen family had no choice but to walk out of the back door, and the servants laboriously pushed through the layers of onlookers, and finally walked to the door.
"Stop me!" The old lady was full of annoyance, "Do you know where this is, dare to come to my Shen Mansion to spread wild!" ”
Second Master Shen saw two slightly familiar silhouettes, and his heart chuckled.
Uncle Jiang and Uncle Jiang didn't stop, Jiang Qingqiao held the quiver and smiled at the old lady, "It's the old lady of the Shen family, this middle-spirited appearance is really tough." ”
Looking at the figure of Second Master Shen wanting to retreat, Jiang Qingqiao raised his voice, "Yo, isn't this my uncle, I haven't seen him for many years, how is his body, can he eat well and sleep well?" ”
Uncle?
The people had a guess in their hearts, and the more eager the conversation became, the old lady's shining eyes narrowed, full of cruelty.
"It turned out to be the Jiang family who was driven out of Shangjing by the saint, why, the food is coming to my Shen family's door?"
"Whew!" An arrow was fired at the old lady, making her face pale with fright.
Uncle Jiang loosened his bow and said contemptuously, "There's a lot of nonsense. ”
Uncle Jiang threw the bow and arrow to Jiang Qingqiao and stepped forward, he had been fighting on the battlefield for several years, full of iron and blood, and a pair of eyes seemed to be terrifying with murderous intent.
"I came today to take away the spirit card of my Jiang family's daughter." Although it's a fake spirit card.
Uncle Jiang continued, "There is also the woman who jumped out of the room and died of grief and hatred, hand it over." ”
Before the old lady could say anything, Second Master Shen had already spoken, "I'll give her to you, and I'll give you the spirit card too!" ”
When everyone saw that Shen Erye didn't want to push his woman out, they suddenly laughed, and the old lady's face was very ugly.
"You open your eyes and see clearly, this is my Shen family's territory, you are full of criminals who dare to enter Beijing, and you still run to my Shen family to make trouble, but there is still a king and a saint in your eyes!"
"The old lady wants to reason with us?" Uncle Jiang sneered and looked at her mockingly, "My Jiang family is still full of grievances." ”
"My niece died at a young age, you still don't care that this is the bloodline of the Shen family and sent her out of Beijing overnight, so that she is a little girl in Zhuangzi for ten years, and she has been wronged when she returns to Beijing, who am I going to reason with?"
Old Madam Shen choked for a while.
These are the Shen family's first inauthenticity, there is nothing to refute, but the Jiang family does not want to bully the Shen family!
Uncle Jiang stepped forward and grabbed Second Master Shen's collar and pulled it over, and sneered, "As soon as my Jiang family falls, my good brother-in-law will directly promote an outer room to a flat wife, and you can be benevolent?" What the Shen family is, they are just a group of cold-blooded and dirty white-eyed wolves! ”
"Uncle has something to say, and he has something to say." Second Master Shen's mind was full of the methods of the Jiang family when he was young.
Now that the Jiang family has entered Beijing to represent the Jiang family, it is a foregone conclusion, he is afraid!
"Whoever talks to you well, what are you?"
Uncle Jiang snorted coldly, let go of him and returned to his eldest brother's side, "I'm just here to say hello today, the green mountains and green waters, we have time to ask for an explanation." ”
"We'll come to the door another day with a big gift."
Uncle Jiang saw that the effect of Ma Wei was in place, and he bowed his head with satisfaction, "Let's go." ”
Jiang Qingqiao looked at the two elders who were striding away, and looked at the arrow in his hand, this is the end?
He hurriedly chased after him and said, "Daddy, Daddy! Wait a minute! "I haven't done it yet!
The next day, Shen Naiqing heard Xunyin say that his uncles went to Shen's mansion to demonstrate, and he immediately couldn't cry or laugh.
"Really...... Childish ghosts. ”
Having said that, my heart was hot.
The uncles went out early in the morning, and Shen Naiqing agreed with the four princes to meet today, so he packed up and went out.
The ink pavilion is a place that sells the four treasures of the study, and the people who enter here are all elegant scholars, and the fragrance of ink comes to her face, and she follows the lead into the small pavilion on the third floor.
The fourth prince, Meng Tanglin, had been waiting for a long time, he was holding a wolf and splashing ink wantonly, Shen Naiqing waited quietly, and when Meng Tanglin regained his momentum, his deep eyes suddenly looked over.
"I heard that Gu Xiaogongzi was injured, and Miss Shen went to visit her as soon as possible?"
His gaze was very sharp, as if he wanted to see through Shen Naiqing's thoughts.
The white-robed woman hooked her lips and smiled, she generously admitted, and then said, "I don't know who Your Highness listened to." ”
"Since someone happened to see it, Miss Shen should know that this king's mother and concubine are-for-tat with the queen, and this king hates people who dare to betray and deceive this king, just like Meng Song, this king will not let him go!"
Shen Naiqing's eyes were slightly deep, "The person who saw it with his own eyes...... It's Meng Song. ”
Meng Tanglin frowned, "How do you know it's him?" ”
"Guess." Shen Naiqing curled the corners of his lips.
She really guessed.
She knew that the four princes hated Meng Song, but Meng Song was rarely mentioned in every conversation between them, and in the past, when the four princes talked about Meng Song, they hoped to deepen her ruthlessness, not to threaten her like today.
And although her tone was affirmative, it was actually just a temptation.
Meng Song knew that she was not dead, so he planned to provoke her relationship with the fourth prince?
"Your Highness doesn't know, Gu Tingnian saved me a few days ago, he was injured, and my cousin wanted to take me to visit to show his gratitude, which I can't refuse."
"I see." Meng Tanglin pondered for a long time, and suddenly raised his eyes to look at her.
"Miss Shen is a spy for this king, how about it?"
