Chapter 202: A Man Like a God
When she came out of the palace, Meijing felt that it must be difficult, after all, she was not too prepared, and she was an abandoned woman, so it would be good to have a place to live first.
As a result, she didn't expect to meet a noble person like Ren Xiaoyao, not only did she live very properly, but everyone also adapted quickly, and there was no sadness at all, which made her feel a lot better. What she is most afraid of is that Jinyi Yushi feels sorry for her and cries beside her, so that she is even more uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Jinyi and Yushi seemed to be very satisfied with the place, and after instructing the house slaves to pack up their things, they cleaned them inside and out, and finally incense the quilt so that she could rest comfortably.
Life is not as difficult as she imagined, there are still four thousand taels of silver in her hand, first follow Ren Xiaoyao to learn something, and then slowly try to open a shop by herself, it should also be able to live, it's a big deal to hire a shopkeeper, she is the owner in the back, so you don't have to worry about the identity problem.
"The fetus is stable, and after three months, the master doesn't have to worry about it." Miao recycled the wrist pillow and said with a smile: "This place is also just right for raising a fetus, it is cleaner than the palace, and you don't have to worry about anything." ”
Meijing nodded: "Thank you for your hard work." ”
"What kind of hard work." Miao Hui pursed her lips: "Now you have to cultivate your body again, and you have to find a way for yourself, which is the hardest." That's all the slaves can do, and the rest is up to you. ”
After speaking, he got up, hugged the medicine box and said, "The slave maid will go to boil today's medicine first." ”
"Okay." Meijing nodded and watched her go out.
As soon as Miao Hui stepped out of the threshold, Shen Shanshui just came in, and the two separated after looking at each other.
"Sister." He walked to her bedside and said very seriously: "Let's leave for Yandi immediately, I want to join the army." ”
Meijing was stunned for a moment, seeing that his face was not very good, she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" ”
Shen Shanshui pursed her lips and lowered her eyes, not intending to tell her the truth.
As far as the matter of Concubine Yan is concerned, the capital has been rumored, and almost everyone knows about it. He didn't understand why it spread so badly, and now when he walked out of this mansion, he could hear a person scolding the Shen family for not abiding by women's morals and being pregnant with wild seeds, how ugly it sounded. He was only glad that those people didn't know what his sister looked like, they couldn't recognize her, and they didn't know that her sister lived here, otherwise the yard might have been overturned.
Rumors have always been terrible, and the big wave of rumors coaxed by not knowing the truth is even more terrifying, and he is worried that if he continues to stay in the capital, his sister will be hurt.
"If you don't speak, how can I know what you're thinking?" Meijing sighed lightly: "I just found such a good place to stay, how can I leave immediately?" The shopkeeper has helped us so much, how can we be worthy of her kindness when we leave? ”
"But." Shen Shanshui pursed his lips: "The capital is not a place to stay for a long time. ”
"I know." Meijing nodded: "That's it, how about waiting for my fetus to stabilize and go on the road after three months?" At this time, it is bumpy all the way, and the fetus will inevitably be in some danger. ”
As soon as he heard that his little nephew would be in danger, Shen Shanshui immediately softened, hesitated for a while and nodded: "That's good, but you promise me to stay in this courtyard and don't go out, let me do anything." ”
"Why?" Meijing frowned: "I still want to go to Xiaoyao Buzhuang to have a look." ”
"You don't have to go, you want to know something, let the shopkeeper come and teach you when he is free." Shen Shanshui explained slightly stiffly: "There are many people on the street, your stomach is not appropriate." ”
After glancing at him twice, Meijing nodded: "Okay, I'll wait here for the shopkeeper to be free." ”
It should be like this, looking at the expression of the landscape, Shen Meijing also knows it in her heart. When she killed Mosang, the city was full of crusades against her, and there were people who thought she was a monster and wanted to be tied up and burned. It should be similar out there now. How can a widow who has disgraced the royal family still live with a good body in her arms?
In the palace.
Song Liangchen was summoned by the emperor to the Imperial Garden and played chess with him.
"I thought you were joking, but I never thought that you would really take a break from the Shen family." The sunspot was on the plate, and the emperor looked up at the person opposite: "You don't want the child in Shen's belly either?" ”
Hooking his lips and smiling mockingly, Song Liangchen said: "It's not that the emperor hasn't heard the gossip, so why bother poking the minister's sore spots." ”
"Oh?" The emperor raised his eyebrows: "It's a ...... from outside Or is it really not possible? ”
Song Liangchen was silent, his eyes were full of pain: "The minister doesn't want to mention this matter again, and he is embarrassed to be thrown into the capital, which is really a shame for my Song family." ”
The tone was full of resentment and shame, and his eyes were also very in place, Song Xiaoying's acting skills had moved closer to Song Laoying and successfully persuaded the emperor.
"You don't have to think too much, it's good to clear up this kind of thing, Shen Shi must not be happy when he goes out alone."
"Yes." Song Liangchen lowered his eyes and said: "I heard that the people on the street have been talking about it for the past few days, and when they see the Shen family, they will inevitably lose eggs and vegetable leaves." The minister listened to it quite refreshingly, but for some reason, he was also a little stunned. ”
The emperor sighed and said, "I already knew that you are a person who values love and righteousness. But now that the position of princess is vacant, do you have any ideas? ”
"The minister is physically and mentally exhausted, and he has no intention of changing others for the time being." Rubbing his eyebrows, Song Liangchen said, "Wait until you go back to Yandi, and then see who is suitable in the courtyard." ”
"That's ......," the emperor said no more, and continued to play chess with him.
The vassal kings of various places expressed great surprise at the sudden change of King Yan, and the vacancy of the position of the princess was not just a gesture of goodwill to the emperor? For several days in a row, the emperor asked King Yan to meet in the palace, and he didn't mention the matter of cutting the domain, which is a good sign.
The daughters of King Zhao and King Qi have already married, which is a pity, but the vassal kings in other places are like catching up with the bazaar, and whenever Song Liangchen returns home, he must bring his daughter to visit.
"What kind of girl does the prince like?" Someone asked him flatteringly.
Song Liangchen replied lightly: "If you don't know how to play the piano, chess, books, poetry, dance, tea, don't look good." ”
As soon as these words came out, the capital instantly set off a trend of pretending to be ugly, and the girls no longer had to apply grease and powder on the street, and the uglier the clothes, the better.
In this regard, Ren Xiaoyao seized the business opportunity and sold all the shabby clothes and fabrics that had been pressed over the years, and the price was not cheap.
The business of the various teaching workshops in the capital has cooled down a lot, and the idle and bored dancers sit on the street in twos and threes to miss the heyday of the teaching workshop.
"When Lord Mosang was here, this qin, chess, book, poetry, dance and tea was the most popular, and many famous ladies came to us to learn it, look at it now......"
"Isn't it?" Another dancing girl sighed, "It's a pity that Lord Mosang went too early. ”
A young Mai asked inexplicably, "How did Lord Mosang die?" ”
As soon as these words came out, someone sneered: "You haven't seen the situation back then, if it weren't for the protection of the fourth young master of the Xu family, then Shen Meijing doesn't know how many times she has died." ”
Hearing the familiar name, a carriage suddenly stopped, not far from the entrance of the workshop.
A few dancing girls sat and didn't pay attention.
The older Mai Ji said, "Do you know Shen Meijing? It was the widow of the nemesis, who was the first to do chores in our workshop, taking her younger brother to help run errands, and secretly following us to class from time to time. ”
Song Liangchen lifted the curtain and looked at the plaque at the entrance of the workshop.
Spring and Autumn Teaching Workshop.
She is an orphan, the owner saw the pitiful, picked up from the street, and was kind enough to raise and work, but she was not grateful, she learned so many things, but she refused to pick up customers, and was chased by her mother all over the capital. Later, I didn't know what good luck I had, and I hooked up with Lord Mosang. ”
Mo Sang is an inviolable god in the eyes of these singing and dancing girls, and she fell in love with such a stinky little girl, so she bought it back with her younger brother and used five sheepskins.
Thinking of the events of the year, there is also a sour tone of the dancing girl: "She didn't know what virtue she had accumulated in her previous life, so she made an exception for Lord Mosang to become an apprentice, taught a lot of things, and performed with the royal front." That girl's natural life was given by Lord Mosang, but her life chart was not soft at all, and she directly killed her master four years later. ”
The young singer was speechless: "How did you kill her?" ”
"Mo Sang died of illness, but the person who has always been good and decent, after accepting Meijing as an apprentice, began to get sick, and finally went after four years. Isn't that what she killed? The elder Mai Ji rolled her eyes: "At that time, even the ministers of the court had written eulogies, and some scribes had interpreted them, and they all said that Mo Sang's death was related to the beautiful scenery of Shen. ”
So later, the angry people of the capital directly smashed the thatched hut where Mosang and Meijing lived, and almost burned Meijing as a monster.
"Then what's the matter with the fourth young master of the Xu family?"
Wu Ji pouted: "Xu Zijin, the fourth young master of the Xu family, has some friendship with Mo Sang, and he can be regarded as a friend who has forgotten his year, so he naturally met Shen Meimei." Mo Sang entrusted Shen Meijing to him before he died, and he ignored the opposition of his family and wanted to marry him. The result? died on the night of marriage, and said that the Shen family was not the life of a Keren? ”
Everyone sighed for a while, and they all sighed at the red face and trouble.
It's also that they don't know that this Shen Meijing is Princess Yan who has just been retired, otherwise they don't know what to say.
After a pause, Song Liangchen put down the curtain: "Let's go to Xu's mansion." ”
"Yes." The jade tree outside responded.
After coming to the capital for so long, he only heard Meijing mention Zijin, but he never heard her talk about Mosang. He still admires that man very much, although he hasn't seen much of it, but talented people are worthy of admiration. He was also curious, why did Mo Sang die?
There was a mess in Xu's house, and as soon as he entered the door, he was startled by the old lady who looked crazy. Song Liangchen frowned, looked at the housekeeper next to him and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The housekeeper looked embarrassed, and hurriedly asked someone to stop the old lady, and then saluted: "Don't ask, the third young master is in his yard." ”
