The day passed quickly, and as soon as it was dark, Steward Li left Chuanxiangyuan alone.

In the middle of the night, when everyone was still quiet in their own sleep, Steward Li had already come to the Sheng family's old house, and he successfully entered the courtyard and directly found the room of the three brothers, but when he passed by Brother Cheng's room, Sheng Hancheng got out of bed vigilantly and said to the figure outside the door with his sword: "Who is coming?" ”

"Brother Cheng, it's me." Steward Li didn't hesitate, just pushed open the door and walked in.

Brother Cheng heard this familiar voice, let down his guard and stepped forward: "Steward Li? ”

"The old marquis asked me to pick you up." Steward Li said to Sheng Hancheng.

"Grandpa asked you to come? Where to? Sheng Hancheng put down the sword in his hand, took his coat and put it on.

He felt very strange when he found out that his grandfather and sister's carriage did not follow them back to the old mansion that day, but except for the nurse who always came to ask them where their brothers and sisters and the old marquis went, the others acted as if nothing had happened: "I will call the eldest brother and the third brother, and Steward Li will stay in my room first, so as not to be discovered." ”

Steward Li nodded and instructed, "Be careful of the nurse." ”

Sheng Hancheng heard Steward Li's words and gently opened the door and walked out, in fact, he and his eldest brother had already noticed that there was something wrong with this nurse, but they didn't know what means she used to make her mother believe her, and even handed her sister over to her to take care of.

He quickly bypassed the nurse's room, and entered the eldest brother's room directly through the back window, after he woke up Sheng Hanmo and explained his intentions, the eldest brother put on his clothes and followed him to call the third brother Sheng Hangu: "Hangu wake up." ”

"Wake up, Steward Li is here."

Sheng Hangu turned over in disgust and waved his hand and continued to sleep, but suddenly heard Steward Li's three words and sat up violently: "Who?" Who's coming? ”

"Steward Li, hurry up and get dressed." Sheng Hanmo handed the clothes to his younger brother.

The three of them quickly walked to Sheng Hancheng's room, and when the door opened, Steward Li saluted the three brothers.

Sheng Hanmo stepped forward and raised Steward Li's hand: "Steward Li doesn't have to be like this, we are all children you grew up watching, and no outsiders don't have to salute." ”

"That's it, Steward Li tell me where Grandpa is?" Sheng Hangu sat on the chair and woke him up in the middle of the night This is where he is going.

"Brother Gu is in a hurry, let's leave immediately."

"What about the old mansion here?" Brother Mo thought that if the people found that the three of them were missing at the same time, they would not have to make a fuss.

"Brother Mo don't have to worry, I'll take care of it here, let's set off quickly at night, it's not easy to leave when it's dawn, I'll explain to my brother on the way."

"Okay." The three of them replied in unison.

The four of them quickly left the old mansion by moonlight, and a carriage had already stopped there not far from the intersection, and Steward Li asked the three brothers to get into the carriage first, while he ran out of the city with the carriage.

After leaving the city, the second brother Sheng Hancheng got out of the carriage and sat next to Steward Li: "Where has Steward Li taken his sister these days?" ”

"The old marquis is in Sichuan Xiangyuan with the county lord, and it is not far from the capital." Steward Li replied while flicking his horsewhip.

"Chuan Xiang Yuan? When did there be such a place next to the capital? ”

"Chuanxiang Garden was repaired by the old marquis two years ago, and it was originally used by the old marquis to return to his hometown."

Sheng Hangu was instantly curious when he heard these three words: "Grandpa wants to return to his hometown?" Can His Majesty the Emperor agree? ”

Steward Li smiled and continued: "Of course Your Majesty will not agree, so Your Majesty found this place for the old marquis. ”

Sheng Hangu suddenly realized, no wonder grandpa said that he would take leave, and he still didn't escape His Majesty the Emperor: "It turned out that His Majesty was looking for it, and I said that grandpa would leave as he said." ”

"It's not that you just go, grandpa should have reached some kind of agreement with Your Majesty a long time ago, although grandpa received the decree, he deliberately said on the day of the decree that he would go home to worship his ancestors, and refused to face the saint thanksgiving, and then suddenly disappeared in the team to return to his hometown, I am afraid that it will be seen by some people with a heart." Sheng Hanmo sat in the carriage and heard the conversation between the two outside the door curtain before analyzing the two younger brothers.

Steward Li just smiled and didn't answer their words, just continued to raise the whip in his hand and gallop quickly.

Sheng Hancheng also returned to the carriage and looked at his eldest brother: "Brother, has grandpa already chosen?" ”

Sheng Hanmo didn't speak, just nodded affirmatively.

The carriage was quiet, the three of them were not talking, Sheng Hangu had no heart or lungs to eat, sleep and sleep, but the other two brothers had their own concerns.

"Here we are." Steward Li stopped the carriage steadily, and the three brothers lifted the curtain and jumped down.

The three brothers were a little overwhelmed when they saw the building in front of them, it was the first time they had seen it so big.

Steward Li pushed open the courtyard door and walked in, all kinds of plants in the garden came into view, the gate was also opened, and the old marquis Sheng walked out with Sheng Zhiyao in his arms.

"Grandpa." The three brothers stood at the foot of the steps and bowed to the old marquis.

"Get up."

The three brothers stood up and stepped forward to look at the sister in their grandfather's hand, Sheng Zhiyao waved her little fist happily, and finally saw her three brothers again, no need to stare at the ice cube face every day.

Old Marquis Sheng took them to the living room and sat down, and the three brothers looked at the row of chairs but didn't know where to sit.

"There's not so much politeness here, just sit down."

The three brothers obediently sat in the lower position of the old marquis side by side, and they were still amazed at the layout of the room, Feng Yuanchen heard the movement and walked downstairs, he knew that the master had three grandchildren, but it was the first time he saw it.

When Old Marquis Sheng saw Feng Yuanchen, he beckoned him to come over: "He is Feng Yuanchen, and you will all live on the second floor in the future." ”

Surname Feng? Shang Zhouchao's surname, Sheng Hanmo was the first to react and stood up and knelt down in front of Feng Yuanchen, Sheng Hancheng and Sheng Hangu looked at their brother's appearance and still wondered why they made such a big salute, Feng Yuanchen's indifferent voice sounded: "Get up, you don't have to salute." ”

Sheng Hanmo stood up and looked at this Feng Yuanchen, who was younger than himself, and really couldn't figure out which prince and grandson he was.

Old Marquis Sheng looked at Brother Mo's expression and smiled and said, "He is the concubine of the second prince, and he has been recuperating in his mother's Zhuangzi since he was a child. ”

Hearing the explanation of Old Marquis Sheng, the three brothers suddenly realized.

"During this time, you all live here, Brother Mo studies hard and prepares for the scientific examination, Brother Cheng and Yuanchen train together, as for Brother Gu, you are responsible for taking care of your sister."

"Why do I have to take care of my sister?" Sheng Hangu pursed his lips and looked at the old marquis aggrievedly.

"There are always a few people in the big family who are not good at literature and martial arts, what do you think you will do?" Old Marquis Sheng looked at his youngest grandson with more interest.

"I... I..."Sheng Hanmo didn't hold back a word for a long time, he really didn't like to read or fight, so he could only lower his head and be silent.

"Grandpa, why are we training?" Sheng Hancheng looked puzzled.

The old marquis looked at him and frowned and said, "In order to protect yourself...... Or maybe it's for the war in Japan. After speaking, the old marquis's eyes looked out the window, throughout the ages, everyone who sat on the throne of God had a bloody battle, but he didn't know when it would come, since it was better to prepare early.

After listening to what their grandfather said, Sheng Hanmo and Sheng Hancheng instantly looked at Feng Yuanchen who was standing next to him.

Feng Yuanchen stood there very calmly and didn't say a word, he knew deeply that he could either die or sit in that position before he could live.

"Okay, let's rest after a day's journey. We'll start tomorrow morning. Old Marquis Sheng picked up Zhiyao and went upstairs, leaving this group of children here.
