Because of the emperor's marriage, in the afternoon, Xu Shusheng did not go out, but stayed at home.

Song Ci also figured out his name.

Xu Shusheng's name is Xu Miaosheng, and his ancestors once had a second-class official, but he was demoted because he offended his colleagues, and his family gradually declined.

Xu Miaosheng's wife's family name is Feng, and her name is Feng Qiurong.

Feng Qiurong has two brothers, so he is called Feng Sanniang, this Feng's father had an old relationship with Xu Miaosheng's father, and the two have been married since childhood.

This Feng's father is also a sincere person, and he did not break the contract because of the decline of the Xu family, and still chose to marry his daughter to Xu Miaosheng.

This Feng Qiurong looks like a flower and moon, is beautiful, and is a rare beauty, which is coveted by countless young talents in Jiangyin County, but he didn't expect to marry a poor scholar in the end, but the fact is that it is in vain.

That Feng Qiurong is not only beautiful, but also has a very good character, and has a good family, although the whole family is a little poor, she is also well organized by her, and the husband and wife respect each other like guests, and their feelings are very good.

Unexpectedly, a few days ago, Feng Qiurong suddenly fell seriously ill and was bedridden, Xu Miaosheng invited famous doctors in Jiangyin County, but he didn't see a reason to come out, and finally died directly.

Xu Miaosheng was grief-stricken, so he could only bury his wife, but just two days after the burial, someone came to report that Feng Qiurong's tomb was dug up, not only the burial things were looted, but even the corpse was gone.

Only the thief left a Pisces lotus mirror, which was a token of love he gave to his wife, and after his wife died, he made a funeral offering.

After Xu Miaosheng knew about this, he was grief-stricken, angry but powerless in his heart, so he could only hold a mirror to remember.

And that Shisheng was originally the son of a housekeeper, and the two grew up together since childhood, because the family was in the middle of the road, and the housekeeper had already been resigned to his hometown.

After the old housekeeper knew about this, he remembered the old relationship, so he sent his son to the Xu Mansion to help one or two.

Thanks to Shi Sheng's help in running before and after, otherwise Xu Miaosheng would really not know what to do.

It is said that it is useless to be a scholar, although it is a bit exaggerated, but it is not entirely wrong, Xu Miaosheng took a mirror there in the afternoon and felt sorry for himself.

Song Ci also took the opportunity to take a closer look at the bronze mirror, but he didn't find anything special.

And Song Ci also knew that Xu Miaosheng should not be the owner of the Sky Swallowing Jar, otherwise he would not be stumped by this matter.

Taking advantage of this time, Song Ci looked around carefully.

He found that the place he was in now was not like a memory retrospection, nor was it like an illusion, but it was a bit like traveling through time and space, coming to the past time and space, but because his own state was very special, everyone couldn't see him, and it was for this reason that Song Ci would collect the previous information.

When Song Ci returned to Xu's mansion, he unexpectedly found that there was one more person, and he couldn't help but be a little vigilant in his heart, it seemed that he couldn't run around, otherwise he might miss the clues he wanted if he was not careful.

The person who came was also a scholar, named Wu Qingyuan, and Xu Miaosheng were classmates, and the relationship should be good, Xu Miaosheng called him Brother Qingyuan.

And he came to Xu's Mansion to invite Xu Miaosheng to participate in the concubine banquet of another classmate Wan Jiadong.

When Xu Miaosheng heard this, he hesitated for a moment and said, "It's still not good, my wife just died, and she is unlucky, so as not to collide with the newcomer." ”

"Hey, what you said is not right, Brother Wan won't care about this, we are scholars, how can we believe these tricks, you see how free and easy Brother Wan is, the concubine just died a few days ago, and today he accepted a new concubine, saying that he is happy, how free and easy, you have to learn more from Brother Wan."

This Wu Yuanqing is short and strong, his voice is very loud, and when he speaks, he makes a slight noise, full of energy.

After he said this, Xu Miaosheng hesitated a little, he also had dealings with this Wan family building on weekdays, and when he got married, this Wan family Dong also came to the door to ask for a glass of wine, with a big gift.

"But Brother Wan didn't invite me, I rushed to go, isn't it too rude."

"Brother Wan didn't invite you, I think I also know that your wife is newly mourned, and she is in a bad mood, if you can go, it's too late for him to rejoice, how can he be rude?" Wu Yuanqing continued to persuade.

However, when he heard the word "new funeral" of his wife, Xu Miaosheng thought of what he had just said, and asked with some curiosity: "Is Brother Wan's concubine also dead?" ”

"Yes, I heard that she is the most favored concubine, and Brother Wan is very sad." Wu Yuanqing said disapprerovitically, the status of the concubine in ancient times was low, and if she died, she would die.

However, what he said was a bit inconsistent, as soon as the concubine died, he accepted a new concubine, is this also an expression of grief?

"Alas, life is impermanent, why ......" Xu Miaosheng heard the words and became sad again.

"Stop, stop......" It was obvious that Wu Yuanqing understood his temperament and immediately interrupted his words.

"I've heard about today's events, don't you know that the Wantong pawnshop belongs to Brother Wan's family? What do you want to inquire about, let Brother Wan come forward, it's not a matter of words? ”

"That's right."

Xu Miaosheng's face was stunned when he heard this, and then he stood up in surprise.

Seeing his appearance, Wu Qingyuan smiled and asked, "Are you still going with me now?" ”

"Go, of course you have to go, you wait, I prepare a gift, I can't come to the door empty-handed." Xu Miaosheng said with some excitement.

So Xu Miaosheng returned to the study, took out a calligraphy and painting from the painting jar, glanced at the bronze mirror on the table, and stuffed it into his arms.

Then Xu Miaosheng followed Wu Qingyuan and the two out of the door and went to the street, walking through the streets and alleys all the way, and finally came to a high-gate compound.

The porter in front of the door obviously knew the two of them, and greeted warmly from afar: "Young Master Wu, Young Master Xu, you two rare guests......

"As long as your mouth is sweet, no wonder Brother Wan often praises you." Wu Qingyuan said with a smile.

When the young porter heard this, the smile on his face was even worse, and he was hurriedly modest, but he couldn't hide the joy on his eyebrows, what he didn't know was that this was just Wu Qingyuan's casual remarks, and that Wan Jiadong didn't know who he was at all.

The two entered Wanfu, which was larger than Xu's Mansion, and under the guidance of the servants, they walked for almost half a stick of incense before they came to a small courtyard.

Wantong is just a concubine, naturally will not put on the lights, fanfare, the whole Wanfu is as usual, only when you come to this small courtyard, you can see a trace of joy, and from time to time there is a noise of guests.

When the two walked into the courtyard, they saw about twenty or thirty scholars gathered together, drinking wine and chanting poems, making loud noises, while Wan Jiadong sat on the main seat, watching this scene with a smile.

Seeing Wu Qingyuan and Xu Miaosheng coming together, he was stunned at first, and then greeted with a smile and asked the two to take a seat, but he didn't get up.

Song Ci observed this Wan Jiadong, his figure was tall, his face was white and his lips were red, and his appearance was quite delicate, but his cheeks were pale, his eyes were cloudy, and he looked like he was overindulgent.

The two of them gave gifts, found an empty seat and sat down, and then chatted with their classmates.

Xu Miaosheng wanted to come forward to talk to Na Wanjiadong several times, but he didn't see a suitable opportunity.

Everyone drank and had fun for several hours, and they all drank a little too much, so someone coaxed and asked the Wan family to call out the newly married concubine for everyone to see, how beautiful it was, and the ten brothers were fascinated.

Na Wan Jiadong pretended to excuse himself, and then asked the servant to call the concubine out.

And Song Ci noticed that since Xu Miaosheng came, Wan Jiadong had been paying attention to Xu Miaosheng's expression, and at this time he showed a rather malicious smile.

"Xianggong ......"

With a coquettish cry, I saw a charming woman coming.

The woman was wearing a red wedding dress and a golden phoenix crown, and the ancient wedding dress was not worn casually, and this dress was obviously not in line with the identity of the concubine.

I saw that this little concubine was plump, and between her expectations, she was charming, and when she was caught by her eyes, she all felt that her heart was hot, and the wine was a little dissipated.

And Xu Miaosheng was even more shocked that the wine glass in his hand fell, and he stood up directly and exclaimed, "Madam." ”

Then you have to step forward and grab the opponent's wrist.

But she was dodged by the woman, laughed coquettishly, snuggled in Wan Jiadong's arms and said with a coquettish smile: "Young Master Xu, I am the concubine Liansheng, but not your wife." ”

"No, no, you are my wife Feng Qiurong, I won't admit my mistake, Qiurong, you don't recognize me, I'm Miaosheng......" Xu Miaosheng stepped forward and was about to pull, but was stopped by Wan Jiadong.

"Brother Xu, I know that you miss your wife, but this is my concubine Liansheng, not your wife, please don't be rude."

"No, I won't admit it, madam, you have a mole on the inside of your right wrist, you can show me."

Xu Miaosheng stretched out his hand and was about to pull away Wan Jiadong to pull the woman, but was pushed to the ground by Wan Jiadong.

At this time, everyone who had seen Mrs. Xu Miaosheng showed surprise, including Wu Qingyuan, but none of them helped Xu Miaosheng speak.

And the lady in Xu Miaosheng's mouth, sitting on the main seat, looked at Xu Miaosheng with a smile, and saw that he looked crazy, as if he thought it was so funny.

This farce ended quickly, because Xu Miaosheng was directly driven out of Wanfu.

"How so? How so? How can a person come back from the dead, the lady is virtuous and virtuous......"

He lost his soul and walked out of Jiangyin City in a daze, heading towards the cemetery of his wife outside the city, Song Ci followed him all the way to watch all this farce, he is now sure that the little concubine is definitely borrowing the corpse to return the soul, the person is that person, but the core is no more.

Now I just don't know how that ordinary bronze mirror became a chisel mirror.

Xu Miaosheng walked further and further, and when he saw that he was about to come to the cemetery, a burst of joy suddenly sounded in his ears.

"The emperor marries, and idlers avoid it~"

There were bursts of shouting, and Xu Miaosheng subconsciously stood on the side of the road.

I saw a team of welcoming relatives coming slowly, some welcoming guests, some beating gongs, some holding flags, and some holding umbrellas......

The whole team is huge, but the strange thing is that except for the sound of suona, gongs and other musical instruments, there is no human voice.

What's even more strange is that at the front of the team, there is a group of people, shirtless, with fierce faces painted on their faces, dancing silently.

Under the moonlight like water, this strange welcoming team looked even more infiltrating, and Xu Miaosheng, who was in a daze, seemed to be a little sober.
