When Shen Xinyan went to Song Wangzhi's mansion, he pounced. The doorman told him: Song Xiang entered the palace and just left.

And what he didn't know was that just as he went out on the front foot, Kui Yuyu went to find Zhang Yang on the back foot. Before closing the city gate, he rode away.

Shen Hao also felt that this matter was strange and really incomprehensible.

In the last years of the former Tang Dynasty, the world was in chaos. Taizu, the predecessor of the crossing, first tried his best to protect the Daming Palace in Chang'an City, and then took advantage of the situation to rise up and settle the Central Plains. If His Majesty Taizu did not bring blessings to the chaotic people in the world, it would be lying to his face.

It's only been a hundred years now. In particular, Taizong was generous and benevolent, and the first emperor was merciful. The first three emperors of the Kai Dynasty did not have half a place to be sorry for the people and courtiers.

His Majesty the current emperor does like to play with power, and he has done a few things to unload the mill and kill donkeys. But after all, it only happened in recent years, and ten years ago, who would have started calculating the world since then?

Shen Hao was puzzled.

The father and daughter are full of hearts, that is, the family has a reunion dinner in the evening, which is also perfunctory.

Fortunately, because Shen Heng was tired when he came back from a long distance, everyone only used food, and then dispersed. Shen Xinxing followed his eldest brother to the outer courtyard study.

Shen Hao lay on the bed and couldn't sleep, tossing and turning.

The sixth slave came quietly and told her with a smile: "Shou Mei is here, shy and timid, I probably have something to tell Miss." ”

Shen Hao blinked, and it took him a long time to react, surprised and delighted: "This is, do you have a sweetheart?" ”

Hurriedly turned over and sat up, and ordered her to come in quickly.

Shou Mei was really pushed in by the giggling Linglong and Jasmine.

Shen Hao saw that her face was flushed with shame, and she hurriedly ordered the others to retreat, beckoned her to sit on the edge of the bed, and asked her with a smile: "What are you doing at night?" ”

Shou Mei blushed, but still told Shen Hao generously: "After the slave and maid told the family about the conditions, the former family took the slave and maid back and met a person. That man was the second son of a Zhuang head family who married the old lady to Zhuangzi. Honest and kind, he is a farmer. The eldest brother follows his father to manage Zhuangzi, and there are two younger brothers and two younger sisters.

"The slave maid thinks it's quite appropriate. When I came back, I told the old lady. The old lady asked Mama Gan to inquire, and said that the person was very responsible, and she was very happy, so she agreed.

The slave thought about coming and talking to the young lady. If the young lady thinks it's okay, the slave maid will let the family get married. ”

Shen Hao smiled and reached out to pat her: "It's not me who lives, what are you asking me to do?" It matters that you like it, you want it, and he treats you well. It's all the little things. ”

Speaking of this, the flush on Shou Mei's face, which had already faded, rose again, bit his lip, and lowered his voice: "That person, when he followed his father to deliver things, he saw me once or twice." It was he who heard that my mother was asking me about people, so his father came to ask. ”

In this way, I have long been thinking about Shoumei?

Shen Hao raised her eyebrows, and couldn't help but joke with her: "If you say that you have calculated others, I will be relieved." It's someone who is trying to calculate you, so be careful. This kind of thing should not be rushed. You let your home wait and see. That kid really cares about you, so naturally he should be in a hurry. ”

Shou Mei was stunned for a moment, thinking that this was indeed the case, so he nodded yes. talked about another thing: "The two aunts and grandmothers got together this year. Yesterday I received a letter saying that we were going to Beijing together. ”

Two aunts?

Shen Miao was stunned and muttered, "I haven't seen them yet!" ”

Shou Mei bowed: "Exactly." ”

After a pause, his voice lowered: "They already know about the separation of the family, but between the lines, they probably don't know that the master went to Yunnan." ”

Shen Hao frowned and asked, "Did you say what you were going back to Beijing for?" ”

Shou Mei smiled: "It's very coincidental." The eldest aunt returned to Beijing from Guangzhou to report on his work, and the younger aunt got a good performance appraisal after the expiration of his term in Longquan County, and now he wants to return to Beijing to see His Majesty. Because the two are not far away, there is a lot of contact. Now they simply came back together. It was only a two- or three-day journey. ”

Two or three days?

When Shen Hao heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

One is that he only cares about things outside, and he even goes to his grandmother's place less, so he has to come to Shou Mei to inform himself in person at night. Second, I feel that I am afraid that this time the careers of the two uncles will be implicated because of their father's involvement in the Zuozang case.

In the outer courtyard, Shen Xinyan also said the same apologetic words to Shen Xinxing:

"Brother Wei has been tired of dealing with the affairs of the household department recently, and he said it without thinking about it. Who knew that His Majesty was invited to inspect it, and such a big mess came out. I'm afraid that you and your two brothers-in-law will be affected by me. ”

Shen Xinxing shook his head again and again, refusing to accept it: "Not to mention our own brothers and sisters, and our closest relatives, it is from the public opinion, and it is better to expose this matter sooner rather than later." Sure enough, it dragged on to the day of no return, and it may not be what kind of shocking case! ”

Shen Xinyan nodded and said softly, "You are extremely right. It's just faith, not to serve the country without sparing his life. His Majesty set the tone on this matter and forbade me to participate. If you're walking outside, be careful not to be dragged into the water. Don't say a word when you're talking. ”

Shen Xinxing nodded again and again: "Big brother, I can save it." ”

"Since the two brothers-in-law are coming, I hastened to hurry up with the things in hand. When the time comes, I will accompany them. I haven't seen each other for a few years, and I don't know what happened to Mi and Anne. Shen Xinyan was a little distracted.

Shen Xinxing originally thought that his brother would hand over extremely important things to himself, but he couldn't help but be a little frustrated if he was instructed to be cautious in his words and deeds.

However, Shen Xinyan's mind at this time was on Zuo Zang's case and Shen Hao's dream, and he didn't treat his younger brother as carefully as before, smiled and sent him first.

Shen Xinxing walked all the way back to Xingxin Hall.

He is a dignified man, and he has no other thoughts. Since he didn't see anyone in the yard, he simply walked in by himself and went straight to the main house.

After a few steps, I found a group of people kneeling down dejectedly under the corridor. And his wife, Mi, was losing her temper in the house: "Say! Where's that ruby ring of mine? It's all on the side, it was given by the third master when I celebrated my birthday! That's my baby! Whoever takes it, hand it over as soon as possible! If I find out, see if I don't break her! ”

Shen Xinxing was slightly stunned, and laughed in his heart.

That ruby ring was given to her by herself the year before last. Why are you still such a baby? A person who has always been gentle shouted and made a fuss like this.

The people cried and denied it.

Mi slapped the table angrily: "I put it in the jewelry box, how could it be gone?!" Tell me, who are you?! ”

Someone at the bottom trembled and said, "Didn't anyone come to Mrs. Xia's mother's house once today......"

Shen Xinxing's face sank suddenly, and he stopped.

He needed to take a look.
