034 Referring to a deer as a horse
"Sister Qingtong, I know that this matter is not your fault, but I was deceived by Shen Yichen, a disciple."
"Don't worry, for my brother, I will send you back to Houfu, and I will explain everything to the Marquis of Taining to prove your innocence!"
Zhu Ji knew very well in his heart that this kind of thing that only relied on one mouth, it was not realistic to slander Shen Yichen and Chen Qingtong for a private meeting.
And it is related to the Taining Marquis's Mansion, which stigmatizes Chen Qingtong, which is equivalent to slapping the Taining Marquis in the face. So the best way is to take Chen Qingtong out, and the pot is all buckled on Shen Yichen.
Even if Taining Hou knew in his heart that this was not the case at that time, in order to protect Chen Qingtong's reputation, he would definitely put the blame on Shen Yichen, and that would be enough!
Didn't Shen Yichen rely on his own arrogance to become a prince of the country? But it's a pity that you still haven't entered the Zhu family's genealogy after all, a nameless and shareless servant son, who dares to covet the only daughter of the Marquis of Taining, no matter what the reason, is an original sin in itself!
I have to say that Zhu Ji is worthy of being a child of a family, and he has played this trick clearly, and he has also done it with strength.
"Zhu Ji, you ......"
Chen Qingtong was ashamed and angry, and wanted to refute, but he didn't know where to start.
Don't look at her usual big grin, lively and outgoing personality, but after all, she is just a teenage girl, and she will be a junior high school student in the next life. It's really a bit overwhelming to suddenly encounter this kind of slander that is related to honor.
"Zhu Ji, you can target me, but don't involve others, otherwise I will definitely make you regret it."
Shen Yichen's tone was extremely cold, and even filled with a faint ferocity. He could actually understand Zhu Ji's desire to fight for the title before, so he didn't care if he was hostile to himself, let alone angry.
And now it's different, his mother Lin's generous "warning", and using Chen Qingtong's name festival as a weapon to attack himself, these behaviors have touched Shen Yichen's bottom line!
Shen Yichen never wanted to take the initiative to harm others, but in the face of others' unscrupulous harm to himself, he would definitely not have any woman's kindness!
Suddenly feeling Shen Yichen's ferocity, Zhu Ji was shocked for some reason, but he quickly stabilized his state.
"What do you mean by involvement? Obviously, you deliberately ruined Qingtong's sister's reputation, and I just took action to stop it. ”
Zhu Ji's kung fu of beating a rake can be described as perfect, and today is a rare opportunity, and he must eat Shen Yichen.
"Is that so?"
A neutral voice came from the crowd, and the people who were watching the excitement were quickly separated from each other, and a middle-aged man in a scarlet robe appeared in front of Shen Yichen and the others.
"The juniors meet the Hou Ye."
After seeing clearly who was coming, Shen Yichen and the others didn't care about the conflict, and bowed one after another.
"Daddy!"
When Chen Qingtong saw the middle-aged man, he immediately rushed over and grabbed his arm, and his eagerness was appeased.
That's right, the middle-aged man who appeared at this time was Chen Qingtong's father, Chen Ying, Marquis of Taining!
Chen Ying was originally discussing official business with Xu Qi, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, today, and after the end, he would pass by the Chengguo Mansion and just pick up Chen Qingtong to return to the mansion together.
This is why Chen Qingtong appeared at the gate of the mansion alone with Zhu Yi, because she was waiting for the carriage of the mansion.
As a result, when Chen Ying, Marquis of Taining, arrived at the Daguo Mansion, he did not find his daughter. Fortunately, the concierge of the mansion knew Chen Qingtong, and after inquiring, they learned that she had traveled with Shen Yichen.
With Taininghou's experience, he naturally realized that Chen Qingtong's behavior was inappropriate, and with his concern for his daughter, he also came to Nanshi Street to look for it, and just happened to meet this scene of Zhu Ji's slander.
"Don't be afraid, Tong'er, Dad is here."
No matter how lofty and majestic Chen Ying is in front of outsiders, in front of Chen Qingtong's only daughter, he will always be just a father, which is completely different from Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo.
"Master Hou, it's just right that you came, Shen Yichen bullied Qingtong's sister into being young and ignorant, and took her to this Nanshi Street to play. Fortunately, I found it in time, otherwise it might be detrimental to Sister Qingtong's reputation. ”
Seeing that the main owner was coming, Zhu Ji hurriedly opened the black towards Shen Yichen, but this time his words were much more cautious, and he didn't dare to use it in front of Chen Ying like a "private meeting" or something.
However, as long as the word "name" is mentioned, I believe it is enough.
"Dad, it's not like this, it's a daughter......"
After Chen Qingtong heard it, she immediately wanted to defend Shen Yichen, she didn't expect that just watching a fireworks show would cause such a situation.
is even more worried that his father will punish Shen Yichen for this reason, then he will die of guilt.
Chen Ying patted Chen Qingtong on the back twice at this time, shook his head at her, and signaled to stop talking.
When Taining Hou Chen Ying raised his head again, an expression that seemed to be smiling appeared on his face, and he said to Zhu Ji: "The virtuous nephew may have misunderstood, it was not Yichen who brought Qingtong over to play, but we came together, and we happened to be separated for a while. ”
What?
Zhu Ji's pupils instantly dilated because of the shock, he thought that Taining Hou would be very angry, and then asked Shen Yichen Xingshi for the crime. Even more extreme, maybe he will tell his father who has already gone to Kyoshi.
When the time comes, Shen Yichen will not say anything else, at least Chengguo Mansion will be a family school, and he will not want to step into it again in this life.
As a result, Zhu Ji never expected that Chen Ying would say such a thing.
The problem is that I am on the teahouse, but I really saw it, and I didn't see the shadow of Taining Hou Chen Ying at all, how could I come here together?
Taininghou lied to help Shen Yichen cover up?
Thinking of this possibility, Zhu Ji was even more unbelievable in his heart, the dignified Taining Marquis was one of the top nobles in Nanjing, why would he speak for a servant.
"Master Hou, have you been deceived by Shen Yichen, obviously ......"
Before Zhu Ji could finish speaking, Chen Ying interrupted with a cold face: "Virtuous nephew, are you questioning me?" ”
"Juniors don't dare!"
Even if Zhu Ji is the son of Chengguo, he does not dare to be presumptuous in front of the Marquis of Taining.
"Yichen and Qingtong have known each other since childhood, they are honest and open-minded, and Ben Hou absolutely believes in his personality."
"Virtuous nephew, you have brotherly blood outside, don't make any misunderstandings and show others a joke."
Taining Hou Chen Ying not only supported Shen Yichen this time, but even acquiesced in his identity as a descendant of the Duke of Chengguo in disguise, for Zhu Ji, it was simply a thunderous blow!
You must know that Taining Hou is his father's best friend, and even he has admitted Shen Yichen, does it mean that his father is the same?
No way! Why was the servant son favored by the Marquis of Taining, and even did not hesitate to stand to help him speak, is it to avoid damage to Chen Qingtong's reputation?
That's right, after all, with Taining Hou traveling with you, there is no such thing as a private meeting, it must be like this!
Zhu Ji never accepted the fact that Taining Hou would help Shen Yichen, so he could only rely on Chen Qingtong for this kind of rhetoric in order to seek inexplicable psychological comfort.
But no matter what the reason is, even if Taining Hou clearly lied and pointed out that the deer was a horse, no one at the scene dared to expose it.
"Master Hou, it seems that the juniors have misunderstood, I'm sorry."
"It's a little thing, it's okay."
"Then the junior won't disturb the interest of the Hou Ye, and will say goodbye."
"Hmm."
After saying that, Zhu Ji and the others retreated, but after turning around, the whole person seemed to have lost his soul.
Today was originally a good opportunity to step on Shen Yichen, but in the end, it was himself who was hit hard. What is not as good as this servant son Shen Yichen, why even Taining Hou helped him, why!
Looking at Zhu Ji and the others going away, Shen Yichen fell into an embarrassing situation, he knew very well in his heart that what Taining Hou said was false, and he also helped himself out of the siege.
It's just that if you thank you, it is not equivalent to pointing out that Taininghou is lying, and if you don't show it, the etiquette is inconsiderate, and it is indeed a dilemma.
"Don't thank me, I'm helping you today for the little girl Qingtong, and I want to borrow my Taininghou's knife, it's too tender."
Chen Ying is also an old Jianghu, and he saw Shen Yichen's crampedness at a glance, so he simply made his words clear.
"It's the younger generation who didn't think it through, and it affected Qingtong."
Shen Yichen also admitted his mistake very simply, he was older than Chen Qingtong, and he should know more about the defense of men and women.
It's just that Shen Yichen has the thinking of the future after all, and he went shopping with a childhood playmate to watch the fireworks, and he didn't think about it so much at all, so he would be caught by Zhu Ji.
But this can be regarded as a wake-up call to Shen Yichen, he has the advantage of being a historical prophet, but it does not mean that he can play the Ming Dynasty casually. The ability of people in this era is also not weak, and it should not be underestimated.
"It's okay, after all, you're childhood friends. But Yichen, you have to know that people are unpredictable, and not every time you can be as lucky as today. ”
In addition to helping Chen Ying today, in addition to his daughter, in fact, he didn't say one thing, that is, he really admires Shen Yichen, otherwise he would not be so partial.
At the family banquet of the Chengguo Mansion, Chen Ying felt that Shen Yichen's momentum was extraordinary, not as rumored by the outside world. The later poems counterattacked, as well as the poem "Linjiang Immortal", which can be regarded as verifying Taininghou's idea.
Now I say this piece of advice, which is also for Shen Yichen's good. Pifu is not guilty, he is guilty, his special life experience is destined to provoke a lot of right and wrong, and he should be more cautious in his actions in the future.
"The younger generation remembers the warning of the Hou Ye."
"Well, then Qingtong will go back with me first."
"Congratulations to Master Hou."
After getting into the carriage, Chen Ying lifted the corner of the curtain, glanced at Shen Yichen, who was still standing in place, and turned his head and said to Chen Qingtong.
"Qingtong, let's have less contact with Shen Yichen in the future."
As soon as he heard this, Chen Qingtong wondered if he had heard it wrong, just now his father obviously agreed with Shen Yichen very much, why did he change when he got into the carriage?
"Dad, things are not what you think, Brother Yichen didn't deceive me, I took the initiative to invite him to Nanshi Street to watch the fireworks."
Chen Qingtong thought that his father had a misunderstanding of Shen Yichen, so he wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Taining Hou's next sentence.
"I know he's not that kind of person."
"Since Dad knows, why don't you let me get in touch with Brother Yichen?"
"Because he's not worthy of you."
"Dad, there is nothing between me and Brother Yichen, and besides, he is very good."
"Needless to say, just remember what your father said."
Taining Hou Chen Ying is a person from the past, how could he not taste that Chen Qingtong's relationship with Shen Yichen is beyond the scope of normal friendship.
He admires Shen Yichen very much, and he also thinks that this son will have a great future in the future.
But no matter how promising it is, now that even the children have not been admitted, they may not be able to enter the phase?
It is even an exaggeration to say that even if Shen Yichen is in the picture, there is still a gap between him and the princess. Now is not the era of Taizu becoming an ancestor, and it is almost impossible to be knighted normally, unless it is a raider.
But the law of the ancestors cannot be violated, Chengguo Gong still has two sons-in-law, and it is impossible for Shen Yichen's turn to be the turn.
Chen Qingtong is her only daughter, and only the family of Xun Qi can guarantee her prosperity and wealth in her life, but Shen Yichen can't!
In this case, long pain is better than short pain, cut off the bud at the beginning of love, and the daughter will understand her hard work in the future.
Chen Qingtong didn't dare to disobey his father, so he could only sit in the car with a sad face, looking at the fleeting flow of people and shops outside the car window.
She couldn't understand why a fun game ended up like this. But there is one thing that Chen Qingtong is very firm in his heart, that is, Shen Yichen is very good and definitely worthy of himself!
