Chapter 319: Shen Cainiao
"It's okay, let's go." Sanniang smiled and motioned for Wang Zheng to continue walking.
On the way, Sanniang pretended to be unintentional and asked the little monk who led the way: "Little master, are so many monks in your temple in the temple since childhood?" ”
The monk recited a Buddha horn and said, "Some were selected from various monasteries at a young age, and some were admitted to the monastery after the imperial court examination once every four years." To participate in the selection, you will need a letter of recommendation from the host of your temple, and you must also be proficient in Buddhism. ”
Sanniang nodded, it turned out that it was still a monk with six endless roots. It's just that I don't know if he knows that he has a son in this world, and the steward who is still in Shandong doesn't necessarily want him to know.
The courtyard that Mrs. Su was assigned was about the same size as theirs, but next door were Mrs. Shen and Shen Fengjiao.
When Sanniang and Wang Zheng came to find it, Mrs. Shen was bringing Shen Fengjiao over to talk to Mrs. Su.
Sanniang and Wang Zheng went forward to greet Mrs. Su and Mrs. Shen, and greeted Su Chengzhi and Shen Fengjiao.
"You are all about the same age, you must be able to talk, talk on the side, get close and close." Mrs. Su is very amiable.
She likes Wang Zheng very much, and she also likes Sanniang, and she is very happy to see the two of them coming.
Mrs. Shen took a good look at Sanniang a few times, then looked behind her, and asked, "Is there only the third lady in Wang Shilang's mansion who came over today?" ”
Sanniang lowered her head and said softly: "My fifth sister and I came with my mother, and the injuries on my second sister's hands are not yet complete, so they are raised at home." ”
Mrs. Shen couldn't help but be a little disappointed, she hadn't seen the second lady of the Wang family until now, her future daughter-in-law, although she heard the queen say. It's a good look and temperament, but she still wants to take a look at it to rest assured.
Sanniang naturally saw the disappointment in her eyes, sighed in her heart, and sat with Wang Zheng and Su Chengzhi. Shen Fengjiao spoke.
"The queen said that she would arrange for Feng Jiao to enter the palace in a few days, but she doesn't know ...... of her wooden temperament" Mrs. Shen swallowed the following words. glanced at Shen Fengjiao on this side, and her tone was a little worried.
Entering the palace? Sanniang and Wang Zheng glanced at each other, and then looked at Shen Fengjiao.
Shen Fengjiao's face seemed to be whiter than the last time I saw it. Still a little shy. Not very talkative. But she was glad that others spoke to her. It can be seen that she herself also wants to break into the circle, but she is not good at expressing it.
Although there had been some speculations about the Shen family picking up a young woman surnamed Shen at this time, I didn't want the queen to really fight this idea, and also arranged for someone to enter the palace before that batch of show girls. In this way, if Shen Fengjiao was pregnant during this time, then those later beauties would lose the opportunity.
"Originally, I shouldn't have let her come out again, but it would be difficult to think that she would come out in the future. So I brought her with me. Anyway, this is a pure land of Buddhism, which is different from other places, and the Queen Mother will not say anything. "Mrs. Shen, Ke Shi. to be a kind-hearted one.
Although Sanniang and Wang Zheng listened to Ke's whispered words, they also pretended not to hear it. Later, Mrs. Shen also realized that it was not good to say these things in front of several juniors, so she asked Shen Fengjiao to take a few people to her room to talk.
A few people went next door and chatted a few words, Shen Fengjiao wanted to speak several times, but couldn't find a conversation. Sanniang and Wang Zheng were both understanding, so they deliberately found an opportunity to let her start talking, and the smile in her eyes was also soft and kind.
Shen Fengjiao's heart was relieved, and she said, "By the way, have you heard that the fiancé of the county lord of Huilan...... Gone? ”
Sanniang was stunned, blinked, and looked at Wang Zheng with an inexplicable expression.
Wang Zheng thought for a while: "Miss Shen, what did you say...... No, what does it mean? "Is the marriage falling through, or is the man dead?
Shen Fengjiao was relieved to see that no one had heard of the news. She is still very rusty in social affairs, she doesn't know what to say and what not to say on some occasions, and no one has taught her before: "A few days ago, there was a skirmish between our dynasty and Mongolia in the north, and the county lord's fiancé happened to be the vanguard, and he didn't want to end up in that confrontation." ”
Is it dead?
Sanniang and Wang Zheng don't have anything to say, talking about the death of their fiancé is really not a very good topic, and it will inevitably make people feel a little gloating. Although they themselves, even Shen Fengjiao, who revealed the news, didn't mean this.
It's just that none of the three of them have heard of this matter, but Shen Fengjiao, who has been detained at home for a long time, knows Mrs. Shen's words? Sanniang came to Beijing not long ago, and it makes sense that she didn't know, but Wang Zheng, who has made a lot of friends, didn't know either, so it can be seen that this matter has not spread in the circle of the capital.
Thinking of this, Sanniang's heart moved, and she seemed to say inadvertently: "We haven't heard of this matter, it can't be a miscommunication, right?" Where did Miss Shen hear that? ”
Originally, Shen Fengjiao was still a little disappointed when she saw that no one had picked up the topic she racked her brains to come up with, and she was happy to see Sanniang finally ask, but she questioned the reliability of her news.
So Shen Fengjiao hurriedly said: "How can it be misinformation!" This is what I accidentally heard from my cousin's subordinates. ”
Cousin? Shen Wei? Sanniang raised her eyebrows, and she really didn't look committal.
Shen Fengjiao thought that Sanniang didn't believe it, and explained in a flash: "Yesterday I accidentally went to the outside of my cousin's study, and his two subordinates happened to come out of his study. They said that the second son of General Zhenbei died, and they also said...... It seems that the little general named Meng An died a little strangely. ”
Shen Fengjiao looked ignorant, she didn't understand these at all, she just heard what she said.
Sanniang and Wang Zheng had already heard that something was wrong.
Meng An died on the battlefield, but did he die strangely?
Why would Shen Wei, an idle person, pay so much attention to the situation in the north? Still deliberately to find out the cause of Meng An's death? Shen Wei is now just hanging an idle position as a foreigner in the court, and he does not participate in political affairs on weekdays.
Somehow, Sanniang suddenly remembered that Sun Jinsheng said that his sister's death was a little strange, and looked at Shen Fengjiao, who looked ignorant and didn't know what great news she had revealed. Thinking of himself again, Wang Zheng and Su Chengzhi were also affected......
"Miss Shen, don't talk about this matter to anyone in the future." Sanniang said towards Shen Fengjiao.
"Why?" Shen Fengjiao didn't plan to say it when she saw someone, but she didn't understand why Sanniang explained her like this.
"Because you overheard it yesterday, and if people ask you, as I do, where did you know, wouldn't you tell many people that you overheard the conversation between your cousin's two aides? The Queen Mother will be angry if she finds out. Sanniang flickered.
"Ahh
Wang Zheng coughed lightly and comforted: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I promise that only a few of us will hear this today, and it won't be spread." My Wang Zheng's words have always counted, if they are spread, you just have to come to me. Saying that, Wang Zheng glanced at Sanniang and Su Cheng.
Sanniang nodded with a smile: "This is natural, I won't say it." Su Chengzhi glanced at a few people and nodded.
Shen Fengjiao breathed a sigh of relief, although she had not been in Beijing for a long time, she had also heard that the young lady from Wang Ge's hometown was good-tempered and committed to her.
"That's good, thank you, I ...... I shouldn't be talking nonsense. Shen Fengjiao looked annoyed.
Wang Zheng smiled: "Then Miss Shen, you yourself have to remember not to say it, and don't tell anyone that you told us about it, we all think that you didn't say it, and I didn't listen." ”
Shen Fengjiao hurriedly nodded in agreement.
A few people talked about something else, and Sanniang found that this Miss Shen really didn't have any scheming at all, could such a person become the queen's arm? If the harem is full of such people, then Shen Yue'e may really be able to come out.
As he was talking, there was a maid over there, Mr. Su came in and came to ask Mrs. Su to come.
Wang Zheng was stunned, glanced at Sanniang, got up and said with a smile: "Look at me, it's time to forget about talking to you." My mother and sister-in-law told us to go back early. Shall we go back first? The latter sentence is right to Sanniang.
Sanniang knew that Wang Zheng was afraid that Su Minzhi would target her again, not only was she wronged, but the two families were also embarrassed. She didn't want to see Su Chengzhi either, so she immediately got up and said goodbye to Su Chengzhi and Shen Fengjiao.
Shen Fengjiao rarely met someone who could talk speculatively, but she was a little reluctant. Su Chengzhi remembered the previous unpleasantness, and it was not easy to keep people.
The two went to Mrs. Su's side to say goodbye, but Mrs. Su said, "Why did you come and leave?" Zheng, I still have some things to say to you, I'll leave later. Mrs. Su said with a smile, she thought that Wang Zheng was embarrassed to see Su Minzhi, so she insisted half-demandingly.
Now Wang Zheng is really bad and left alone.
Seeing this, Sanniang hurriedly said: "Since Mrs. Su has something to explain, then aunt, you can stay!" I went back to say hello to my aunt and uncle, and she wouldn't say anything. ”
Wang Zheng only nodded: "Then you go back first, I'll come over in a while." ”
Sanniang saluted and left alone with the maids.
As soon as she got out of the yard, she saw Su Minzhi's chic posture and strode over, Sanniang secretly rolled her eyes, but this is also the future uncle, so she bowed her head respectfully and stood aside. Su Minzhi paused when she saw Sanniang's footsteps, Sanniang didn't look up, only saluted in his direction and waited for him to pass.
Su Minzhi only paused and passed.
Sanniang looked up and breathed a sigh of relief. She really didn't want to fight.
I didn't want to take two or three more steps, and I saw a cold figure with a tall posture.
Sanniang subconsciously wanted to smile at that person, but thinking of where she was now, she turned around and looked at Su Minzhi's figure that had just disappeared in front of the courtyard gate, and Sanniang couldn't help but squint slightly. (To be continued)
