Sima Hongyan sneered and said, "Uncle Shi, I think let's make it clear!" Who doesn't know that these so-called saints' words that belittle women are all made up to deceive the world? In order to protect their own rights, deliberately promoting masculinity and magnifying the status of men, isn't this a sign of cowardice on the part of men? Jin Yan is a rare genius, and she is not willing to be bound by traditional dogma, and is about to break out of the world for herself, at this time, Uncle Shi, you are dragging her back, aren't you afraid that Jin Yan will regret it for life? ”

Shi Hanhai was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The words of the matchmaker of the parents' orders, since they are my poet's children, they must follow the rules of my poet's family." Your Sima Hongyan is not controlled by common sense, and that is because there is no one to discipline you. But Yan'er can't do it, with me for a day, she is not allowed to do anything out of the ordinary. This matter is settled, and it is useless for Miss Sima to say more. After the competition, I will ask the emperor to let Yan'er retire and go home, Miss Sima, please do it! ”

The thousand-year-old criticism is not something that can be explained clearly for a while, Sima Hongyan believes that Shi Jinyan will have her position at that time. Hearing that Shi Hanhai had already directly bombarded people, he was angry, and he got up and was about to walk out. As soon as he was halfway up, Sima Hongyan's heart suddenly moved, and he was about to stand up but sat down again.

Seeing whether Sima Hongyan was going to leave or not, Shi Hanhai didn't understand what Sima Hongyan meant. Sima Hongyan dusted off the wrinkles on his clothes, looked at Shi Hanhai with a confused face, and asked, "Uncle Shi, is it that any dignitary and prince has taken a fancy to Jin Yan?" ”

"How do you know?" Shi Hanhai blurted out in surprise.

Sima Hongyan smiled and said: "Uncle Shi specially sent someone to call me today, and he came up and said so much, but when it comes to letting Jin Yan marry, he is so decisive that there is no room for maneuver, I can't guess this?" ”

Shi Hanhai secretly thought that this Sima Hongyan would see the opportunity quickly, so he didn't hide it and said: "The girl is so smart! Truth be told, it is! ”

Sima Hongyan said: "Then can I know who you want to give Jin Yan to?" ”

Shi Hanhai hesitated and said: "It's okay to tell you, there is news in the palace today, the emperor's four princes have taken a fancy to Yan'er, and after the Five Nations Competition, the emperor will give a decree to give marriage!" ”

"The Four Princes?" Sima Hongyan had no impression of this person, and asked curiously, "I don't know how this Fourth Highness is doing?" ”

Shi Hanhai replied: "His Royal Highness is the best among many princes in Chinese, and he is the prince whom the emperor relies on a lot. In particular, the knowledge of the four highnesses can be described as broad, ancient and modern, and Yan'er is simply a match made in heaven. His Royal Highness has a very high vision, six out of twenty today, and he is not married, but he has an interest in Yan'er. Miss Sima, where do you say to find such a good thing? ”

Seeing Shi Hanhai's eyes shining, Sima Hongyan suddenly felt a sadness for Shi Jinyan, for this Shi Shangshu, children are just his bargaining chips for climbing the dragon and the phoenix, wealth and glory, and cultivating Shi Jinyan's talent from an early age is not simply for the sake of the child's knowledge, but just to be able to match the gold coat plated by the prince and grandson.

Sima Hongyan couldn't see the appearance of this villain, and asked Shi Hanhai: "May I ask Lord Shi, I don't know if you have asked Jin Yan?" What did she think of herself? Is she willing to marry the fourth prince? ”

Shi Hanhai said: "Joke! Whoever to marry or not to marry is naturally my decision, how can I let her? No matter what she thinks, no matter whether she wants to or not, her parents' orders cannot be violated! What's more, if you refuse, you are disobeying the emperor's order, and you are resisting the decree, who can afford it? ”

Sima Hongyan laughed a few times, with an expression like hearing a joke.

Shi Hanhai was laughed at her inexplicably, and couldn't help asking, "What are you laughing at?" Am I wrong? ”

Sima Hongyan smiled and said awe-inspiringly: "I really don't understand whether it is Lord Shi or Jin Yan who wants to marry?" Since it is Jin Yan, it should be up to her to choose who she likes to marry, why do you make decisions for her? Just because you gave birth to her? If you had known that birth was destined for a life of misery and regret, it is estimated that no one would want to be reincarnated as the children of you hypocrites! ”

Sima Hongyan was no longer polite at this time, and his words made Shi Hanhai's face red and white, and he couldn't help but be angry under embarrassment. He slapped the table and shouted, "If it weren't for Yan'er's face, if you were so rude to me today, I would have let the soldiers beat you out." Tell you, informing you in advance is to give you face, Yan'er's withdrawal from the army is a foregone conclusion, do you still want to fight against the royal prince? Let's go! Don't come back to Shangshu Mansion in the future, Yan'er's affairs will have nothing to do with you from now on. ”

Sima Hongyan stood up, didn't say goodbye, turned around and left. Just a few steps, Sima Hongyan suddenly turned around and said to Shi Hanhai: "Master Shi, with Jin Yan's talent, his future achievements are definitely beyond the reach of others." If you lose a lot of important things today because of your wrong decision, I wonder if you will regret it today? ”

Shi Hanhai snorted and said: "I have never regretted being able to get to today, you don't have to be alarmist here, from tomorrow onwards, my poetry family will have nothing to do with your Sima family." I remind you not to beat Yan'er's idea again, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind! Drop-off! ”

Immediately after a "send-off", four people dressed as domestic servants quickly walked into the house and surrounded Sima Hongyan in the middle, and one of them said coldly: "Please!" ”

Sima Hongyan didn't look at the four of them, stepped out of the house, went straight out of Shangshu Mansion, took the reins of the horse handed by Ban Lingruo, got on the horse, and went all the way to the east of the city.

Since Sima Hongyan came out of Shangshu Mansion, his face was ugly and scary, and he didn't say a word from beginning to end. Ban Lingruo and Xiao Hongying had never seen such a gloomy Sima Hongyan, and neither of them dared to ask, but just followed her closely and ran wildly.

returned to Sima Mansion in Dongcheng, Sima Hongyan stopped in front of the mansion, and his own subordinates went in to call people. Sima Hongyan pondered silently all the way, and only then did he think of Ban Lingruo and Xiao Hongying. When he turned around, the two of them were following him, their faces full of anxiety.

Sima Hongyan immediately understood that her depression had affected her two younger sisters, so she turned around and smiled: "Are you still following me?" Don't go home? ”

Ban Lingruo said: "Seeing that my sister is in a bad mood, I'll still come to accompany you!" ”

Xiao Hongying also said: "What are you doing when you go home?" I don't have anyone at home, and I don't even have food to eat! ”

Sima Hongyan smiled again: "Then go home and take a shower and change your clothes and come over, I will prepare a meal and wait for you." ”

Seeing Sima Hongyan smiling, Ban Lingruo and Xiao Hongying glanced at each other and promised to go back to their homes first.

At this time, Qinghan received a report from the doorman to greet Sima Hongyan, Sima Hongyan handed the horse to the doorman, and instructed Qinghan while walking inside: "Prepare some dinner, I'll go take a shower and change clothes first." ”

Qinghan said: "Will the third and fifth ladies also come over for dinner in a while?" ”

Sima Hongyan was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "What third miss, fifth miss?" ”

Qinghan responded with a smile: "Naturally, it's Miss Ban and Miss Xiao!" I heard that the five of you have married sisters, and the sister of that young lady is naturally our young lady, and the people of our five mansions have discussed it in private, and they are in trouble with this girl and that girl, so just call a few young ladies according to your age. ”

Sima Hongyan secretly sensed that Qinghan's thoughts were interesting, laughed, and after thinking about it, he asked again: "You said the people from the five mansions just now?" How? The fourth sister and the red shadow's Forget Worry Pavilion and Huanxi Ju also have subordinates? ”

Qinghan replied, "Yes! It was Steward Sun who went to arrange it, and he arranged a few people who have done a good job in our house over the years to be housekeepers and deacons in the fourth and fifth misses' mansions. Steward Sun said that these people know the roots, and they are much more reliable than the people who are looking outside, and as for the maid who serves the ladies, Steward Sun is still looking for them, but someone has already begun to take care of these two new houses. ”

Sima Hongyan felt very satisfied with this arrangement, and instructed Qinghan: "It's rare that Steward Sun is so attentive, you go back to the account room to pay some money to the old housekeeper, so that he shouldn't spend money too sparingly." Pick some good maids for those two new houses, how can they be about the same level as you. ”

Qinghan hurriedly agreed, but smiled proudly: "Where else can I find someone as sweet as me?" ”
