Chapter 137: Meddling
"Lord Wang." When Zhang Xinlan heard the footsteps, she thought that Song Zhi had asked her to invite her, but when she turned around, she saw Shen Baiyan's cold face.
No matter how many times she saw him, Zhang Xinlan never dared to look at Shen Baiyan.
"What's the matter?" Shen Baiyan didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his tone, but it just fell in Zhang Xinlan's ears, which was no different from a reprimand.
Zhang Xinlan was a little angry in her heart, and she was confident, but when she saw Shen Baiyan, her whole person seemed to be three inches shorter.
Shen Baiyan saw that she didn't answer for a long time, so he said, "Send off." ”
"Huh!" Zhang Xinlan was extremely angry, but she didn't dare to attack, so she had to swallow this breath and said aggrievedly: "I have something to do with the princess." ”
"What?" Shen Baiyan asked stubbornly.
"The matter of the woman's boudoir, does the prince also have to ask in such detail?" Zhang Xinlan thought that if she said this, Shen Baiyan, who would be able to block it, had nothing to say, but she didn't expect Shen Baiyan to listen to her words and actually nodded.
Zhang Xinlan opened her mouth and blushed, and she didn't make up anything about the boudoir.
Shen Baiyan looked at her embarrassed look, and thought about giving Cui Daowu a few thin noodles, so he explained kindly: "The princess is easy to get tired these days, if Mrs. Cui has nothing important, please come back tomorrow after handing over the post, or, wait for the princess to give birth." ”
This matter made Zhang Xinlan vomit in her heart all day, if she didn't ask clearly, she wouldn't want to sleep well tonight, she couldn't care about it, gritted her teeth, and said, "Song Yan's child!" Is it the flesh and blood of the Zhang family? ”
Shen Baiyan looked at her indifferently, "You came to the princess just to ask about this?" How could it be her turn to ask her about this? ”
Zhang Xinlan suddenly felt short of breath, and said strongly: "Song Yan is also the Song family......
"The Song family? As far as I know, there is no such person in the Song family tree. Shen Baiyan said.
Zhang Xinlan muttered, "Erased from the family tree? She's really good at it. ”
"Zhang!" Zhang Xinlan dared to speak like this in front of Shen Baiyan, and Shen Baiyan immediately reprimanded, although his voice was suppressed, his tone was extremely cold.
Zhang Xinlan was dizzy, and she actually said everything in her heart, she was shocked by Shen Baiyan's angry reprimand, and the whole person softened while holding the coffee table, and fell to the ground.
Shen Baiyan clearly hadn't even touched her with a finger, this posture was too exaggerated. Shen Baiyan shook his head secretly, and was about to turn around and leave, when he heard Zhang Xinlan let out a low sob.
Shen Baiyan frowned extremely impatiently and said, "What are you doing?!" ”
Zhang Xinlan remembered Cui Daowu's previous hints to herself, but she ignored them, she was as stupid as a pig! It wasn't until the gust of wind blew into the ears of the Zhang family a few days ago that Zhang Xinlan thought about it and the suspicions in her heart overlapped, and she understood the reason for Cui Daowu's previous spitting look.
"The prince doesn't blame the concubine, the concubine just ran out of ideas for a while, thinking about the princess and that, what did that woman say was also a family, so I wanted to ask." Zhang Xinlan's consciousness gradually returned, and she hurriedly explained.
Shen Baiyan said coldly: "This matter has nothing to do with the princess, don't disturb her." The Zhang family is not a small family, this kind of thing can be handled in a low-key manner, do you still think that the matter is not big enough when you cry like this? ”
Zhang Xinlan was reprimanded and had nothing to say, only nodded desperately.
Shen Baiyan raised his feet and wanted to leave, but was called by Zhang Xinlan again.
"The king, the king." Zhang Xinlan hesitated, not knowing whether to tell what she knew.
"If you have something to say, don't stumble." Shen Baiyan's patience has been overdrawn, and he can barely cope with it because the relationship between Zhang Xinlan and Song Zhi is not bad.
"Ancestor, she seems to have arranged someone for you." Zhang Xinlan pondered it and said it anyway.
Zhang Xinlan thought to herself, the ancestor is still in front of Shen Baiyan to put the score of the elders, when Song Zhi was pregnant, she listened to her chattering to arrange a concubine for Shen Baiyan, but was stopped by the juniors.
But she never stopped thinking about it, although she didn't mention it on the surface, but the day before yesterday, she quietly picked up one of her nieces and granddaughters, hid her in her yard, and didn't introduce her to others.
But there is one more woman for no reason, how can this person who has a mouth full of mouths not leak the news?
Zhang Xinlan listened to a few gossips from the people, and one of them made her the most concerned.
That girl's eyebrows and eyes are a bit like the third lady of the Song family! ’
Zhang Xinlan was open-mouthed, offended Shen Baiyan, and wanted to ease the relationship between herself and him, so she communicated the news with Shen Baiyan, but she didn't want to make any extraneous trouble, so she didn't tell Shen Baiyan these trivial details.
Shen Baiyan didn't say anything, but said, "It's getting late, so Mrs. Cui should go back early." ”
As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Uncle Cui standing in the courtyard waiting for him, his figure looked a little rickety because of his old age, Shen Baiyan suddenly felt very uncomfortable in his heart, "Uncle Cui, don't always guard me on such a cold day." ”
Uncle Cui answered, still walking slowly behind Shen Baiyan, since Song Zhi entered the door, Shen Baiyan's daily affairs were handled by her, and Uncle Cui had been much more leisurely.
"Did your grandmother put pressure on you a few days ago?" Shen Baiyan said suddenly.
Uncle Cui was stunned, he didn't know where Shen Baiyan learned about this, he lowered his head and said, "Old lady, she also feels sorry for you, but she doesn't know you." I didn't want you to be upset, and I didn't want to have a dislike between you and the princess, so I pushed it back. ”
The inner courtyard was completely controlled by Song Zhi, and Mrs. Cui naturally couldn't do it, so she thought about borrowing Uncle Cui's hand to send people in, but she didn't expect to be rejected by him.
Shen Baiyan didn't turn around, still pacing slowly, and said, "Thinking about my grandmother's temperament, I must have said a lot of ugly things. ”
Uncle Cui smiled silently, "The status of the old slave is humble, and it is natural to say a few words to be angry. ”
"Although you came from the Cui family with your mother, after all these years, you are already a member of my Shen family, how can you allow others to shout and drink." Shen Baiyan said disapprovingly.
Uncle Cui heard a little dissatisfaction in his tone, and hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, this matter has been turned over, let's not mention it again, and you don't get angry with the old lady, okay?" ”
It would be nice if it was really a page. Shen Baiyan thought silently, turned around and patted Uncle Cui's shoulder, and said, "I'm going back, and you should rest early." ”
Shen Baiyan has always been moody, Uncle Cui saw that he looked calm, and thought that he had listened to his words, so he retired with a smile.
As soon as Shen Baiyan's steps crossed the threshold of the main courtyard, he heard a shallow laughter rippling. His thoughts were not fast, and his emotions dissipated in an instant.
"But I'm tired of you." Song Zhi held his cheeks and looked at Shen Baiyan. Her eyes were shining, and her expression was calm and beautiful.
Song Zhi had already heard from his subordinates that Shen Baiyan had personally sent Zhang Xinlan away.
"I don't know what she thinks in her head, why would she want to ask you about that?" Shen Baiyan shook his head, speechless.
"Want something?" Song Zhi didn't want to froth at Song Yan's affairs, "The small kitchen has prepared dumplings and noodle soup, and if you want to eat, you can also prepare blood pigeon soup." ”
Shen Baiyan thought for a moment and said, "Then let's have a bowl of soup." ”
Song Zhi nodded at the meteor and said, "Then ask the small kitchen to cook a few cool side dishes and send them together." ”
Meteor was blessed and quickly went out.
There were only the couple left in the room, and Song Zhi couldn't wait to ask, "How is my sister-in-law's body?" ”
The water column broke for a moment, and then quickly continued, Shen Baiyan put down the teapot and looked at Song Zhi.
Before he could speak, Song Zhi understood. "But it's not good?"
"It's too wasteful." Shen Baiyan said briefly, seeing that Song Zhi had a very sad look on his face, he reached out and pinched Song Zhi's face, and said, "Don't worry, I have already asked people to find gynecological holy hands in various places, and they will always be recuperate." ”
Song Zhi rubbed Shen Baiyan's palm with his face, like a well-behaved cat, and said, "It's quiet in the womb these days, and the emperor has come less, did you stop it together?" ”
"Your body is inconvenient, is it possible to enter the palace to say goodbye? Bow down and kneel? "If that's the case, you can't even protect your pregnant lady, why should you be this regent?
"Hmm." Song Zhi puffed out his face and didn't say anything.
"What's wrong?" Shen Baiyan was puzzled, "But what gossip did you hear?" ”
"It's not gossip, it's just that today Sister Jiang and Cousin Qing entered the palace to ask for peace, I heard that they have suffered a lot of trouble, I wonder if it will be because of me?" Today, the Empress Dowager Jia'an set up a banquet, and I am afraid that only Song Zhi dared not to go.
"Nonsense, Mrs. Zhou was harassed, I'm not sure whose reason it was. But Mrs. Xie, it should be because of Yan Siqing, right? Shen Baiyan thought for a moment and said.
"What do you mean?" Song Zhi tilted his head and asked.
"Empress Dowager de Rong's father, Gao Qiu'an, and Yan Siqing are close friends, and the two families are good friends, and Mrs. Xie has had frequent contacts with the Yan family during this time, and it is understandable that Empress Dowager Jia'an is angry." Shen Baiyan didn't want Song Zhi to take all the responsibility on himself.
"Speaking of which, Cousin Qing is really incomprehensible, I heard that Mr. Xie slept in a separate room with her because of her close relationship with the Yan family, why is she so stubborn?" Song Zhi said in pieces, this is what the Lin family said to her when he came to visit her a few days ago.
Shen Baiyan stuffed a candied fruit into her mouth, and Song Zhi was like a little squirrel, chewing the candied fruit while saying: "Sister Jiang let the Empress Dowager Jia'an toss a lot, let her play the piano and let her perform calligraphy, it's really inattentive!" ”
Shen Baiyan thought for a while and said, "I guess, it's because Cui Erwen made a contribution to Junan's disaster relief a few days ago, and the Empress Dowager Jia'an will inevitably be a little proud. Besides, Junan is the territory of Jinghaihou, she always thinks that her mother's children are excellent and seem incompetent, so she dares to do this, not because of you. "Cui Erwen is the eldest grandson of the Cui family, and he is in the limelight these days, much more beautiful than Cui Daowu.
