Volume 1 The Heaven in the Pot Chapter 37 The Dinner in Youzhou (II)
Shen Ye was already nervous, but when he heard Si Si talk about the word Tai, Shen Ye's eyes froze, and he asked urgently, "Tai?" Too what? Miss Sisi, do you know who I am? Who the hell am I? ”
Si Si's mouth opened slightly, and then he realized that Shen Ye had not recovered his memory, and he almost missed his mouth.
At this time, Bai Zihuan came over and said to Shen Ye: "Brother Ziye, don't you introduce me to this Miss Shen family?" ”
Although Shen Ye was anxious at this time, he also knew that this was not the time to ask, so he had to give up, he looked at Shen Sisi deeply, and said to Bai Zihuan: "I guess Brother Bai also heard it just now, she is the next manager of the Shen family, Shen Sisi's girl." ”
Then he said to Si Si: "This is Bai Zihuan, the heir of the head of the hundred families, and this is her sister Bai Youyou." ”
Seeing this, Si Si quickly stood up and gave a salute, and Bai Zihuan also hurriedly got up to return the salute, and said to Bai Youyou: "I haven't seen my sister yet." ”
Bai Youyou knelt behind the long table, still holding something in his mouth, and said vaguely: "I've seen my sister!" ”
Bai Zihuan was anxious, and said in his heart: "After I go back, I have to ask my father to find someone to teach her the etiquette, which is really embarrassing for me." ”
Meng Feng has been observing Shen Sisi's movements on the stage, and seeing that she is sitting with the people of the hundred families, the two sides seem to be very familiar with each other, and suddenly become suspicious in his heart, Shen Song lives in seclusion in Luzhou, no one knows, Shen Sisi has always been taken by Shen Song, how can the people of the hundred families be familiar with her.
Just thinking about it, Fang Sheng below said loudly: "Everyone, please be quiet. ”
After the hall was quiet, Fang Sheng said to Meng Feng, who was at the top: "Lord of the State Mansion, since Miss Shen has also taken her seat, then please continue to preside over the affairs of tomorrow's meeting." ”
The corners of Bai Fengzhan's mouth twitched: "This old thing, does he really regard himself as a representative of the family?" ”
Meng Feng was depressed in his heart, and said lightly: "Fang Cai is talking about the anthology, then let me ask again, in addition to the Xuanzhou Chang family, among the eight great families, has anyone given up the anthology?" ”
Bai Zihuan raised his hand and said: "Hundred schools of thought give up the anthology." ”
Shen Sisi continued: "The Shen family also gave up the anthology. ”
There was another commotion in the hall.
Not to mention the special situation of the Shen family, Baijia is the first time in more than ten years to give up the anthology, although this time Baijia is just a young son, but he is the heir of the family after all, if he wants to show his strength at the literary meeting, with the help of the signboard of Baijia, there must still be a lot of talented people to come.
His abandonment really surprised everyone, and even Meng Feng raised his eyebrows, puzzled.
The people of the other five families saw it in their eyes and were happy in their hearts, Bai Fengzhan snorted coldly: "These hundred children still have self-knowledge. ”
Chang Luochen looked at Bai Zihuan in surprise and asked, "Why did Brother Bai give up the anthology?" Then how will you explain to your father when you go back? ”
Bai Zihuan smiled evilly: "I don't know anything about poetry and articles, I don't know what the statute of the anthology is, won't it be easy to be ridiculed by others when the time comes?" However, when the time comes, I will go to other houses to study more, such as the Bai family, hehehehe......"
Chang Luochen looked at him with a wicked smile on his face, knowing that he must not have thought of anything good, Chang Luochen then asked Si Si: "Why did Si Si girl also give up the anthology." ”
Si Si replied more simply: "I don't like it." ”
"Ugh." Chang Luochen was speechless by this answer.
Meng Feng saw that the discussion below had subsided on the stage, and then said: "Then tomorrow, five venues will be set up on the west side of the inner city: Bai, Yang, Liu, Fang, and Song, and the standards of each anthology will be decided by each family according to the usual practice." ”
Meng Feng then asked: "The martial election will be set up outside the gate of the camp on the east side of the inner city, will any family give up this martial election?" ”
Everyone in the audience looked at Bai Zihuan and Shen Sisi, and this time the two did not say anything to refuse.
Chang Luochen also looked at the two, Si Si and Bai Zihuan knew what he was going to ask, glanced at each other, and said at the same time: "I like it." ”
Chang Luochen: "......"
Meng Feng saw that everyone didn't make a sound, and said loudly: "The matter of the Wenhui is decided, from tomorrow, all families in Chenshi will be ready, the inner city will be opened, and the selection will be carried out, and the military election will start at the same time, and the internal city will be closed, and the Wenhui will last for twenty days, do you have any objections?" ”
The people of all the families arched their hands and said in unison: "Listen to the arrangement of the state capital!" ”
After the discussion of the meeting, the hall became lively, with delicious food and wine served one after another, and the people of the family were staggered, talking and laughing.
Meng Feng was afraid that Shen Sisi would disappear from view and be secretly taken away by Shen Song in the dark, so he went straight to Sisi when he finished speaking.
Shen Ye was just about to ask Si Si what she meant by "Tai", when he saw Meng Feng coming over.
Si Si saw Meng Feng, got up and said in a low and anxious voice: "Uncle Meng, where is the master, why didn't I see him?" ”
Meng Feng looked at her and smiled: "I was about to tell you about this, congratulations, you have passed your master's test for you." ”
"Test?" Si Siqi said.
Meng Feng said: "Shen Song wants to observe your ability through this banquet, if you don't succeed, he will come out." ”
Si Si breathed a sigh of relief, then became nervous, and stammered: "Then I, I gave up the anthology for the Shen family, will the master be angry?" ”
Meng Feng said: "I don't know about this, you can just ask him yourself?" ”
Si Sixi said: "Where is the master?" I'll go see him. ”
Meng Feng said: "You come with me." ”
"Lord Governor."
A voice came from behind the two, Meng Feng turned around and saw Song Cheng coming with a wine glass, Meng Feng frowned, Song Laosan What is this going to do? I can't get out of it now.
Shen Ye beside him took advantage of Meng Feng's distraction, pulled Si Si over and asked in a low voice, "What did Meng Zhou Mansion say to you?" ”
Si Si replied, "He wants to take me to my lord." ”
Shen Ye exclaimed, "Where is Uncle Shen Song in Mengzhou Mansion?" ”
Si Si said: "What's all the fuss about? By the way, you don't know yet, my lord and Uncle Meng are friends of life and death. ”
"Uncle Shen Song and Mengzhou Mansion intersect with life and death? I see, that's why he has the waist card of the state capital, but why did he secretly give me the waist card and let me take the division out of Youzhou? Wrong! There must be something wrong with this! ”
Shen Song looked serious and said to Si Si: "Si Si girl, if you can trust me, you must always be wary of this Meng Feng. ”
Si Si was dumbfounded: "Why? ”
Before Shen Song could speak, Meng Feng, who was chatting with Song Cheng, had already turned his head, Meng Feng looked at Shen Ye beside Si Si with deep meaning, and smiled at Si Si and said, "Let's go." ”
Seeing the two leaving, Shen Song was anxious but helpless, he saw Song Cheng who was still staring at Meng Feng in place, the two glanced at each other, and there was an inexplicable coldness in their eyes.
Bai Zihuan on the side walked up to Shen Ye, saw Shen Ye's face was gloomy, and asked, "But what happened?" ”
Shen Ye had a lot of doubts in his heart, but it was inconvenient to tell others, he looked at Bai Zihuan's anxious expression, and then remembered that Meng Feng was in a hurry, and the two of them forgot to ask Meng Feng about the "assassin" in the court.
Shen Ye understood in his heart and comforted: "Mengzhou Mansion is the host of the banquet, and the dinner will not be said goodbye, and it will not be too late for us to ask when he comes back." ”
Shen Ye's mind was full of the word "Tai" at this time, and his heart was in turmoil for a while, he gritted his teeth and said to Bai Zihuan: "I'll follow Mengzhou Mansion to have a look." ”
"I'll go with you."
Song Cheng heard the conversation between the two behind him, put down the wine glass in his hand, and walked up.
Looking at the puzzled expressions of the two, Song Cheng said lightly: "What, I can't go and see the young lady of the Shen family?" ”
"Uncle Song and Miss Sisi know each other?" Shen Ye asked tentatively, he and Bai Zihuan didn't know that there was a conflict between the Song and Shen families, and seeing that Song Cheng had spoken out to help Shen Sisi, he had this idea.
"If you talk nonsense, Mengzhou Mansion will go away." Song Cheng stepped out of the door of the main hall, and Shen Ye followed when he saw this.
Outside the door, the sergeant saw the two of them walking straight to the depths of the city lord's mansion, and hurriedly stopped the two, without waiting for the sergeant to ask, Song Cheng pointed to the figure that was about to disappear, and said: "I have important matters to discuss with the state capital, this matter is very important, don't stop it." ”
After the sergeant got out of the way, Song Cheng and the others quickly followed, but first, it was cloudy tonight, the moonlight was dark, and secondly, Meng Feng walked in a hurry, still walking on various paths, Shen Ye and Song Cheng chased them to the corner and disappeared a few people.
"Who's ahead?!"
A patrol soldier with torches happened to see the two.
The soldiers quickly dispersed and pounced from the three breads, Song Cheng's eyes flashed, and when the two were surrounded, Song Cheng took out the Song family's waist card and said: "We are from the Song family, we are going to see the state capital, and we have important matters to discuss." ”
The sergeant at the head looked at the two of them sharply, and said, "We don't know where Lord Meng is, you two can come to the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow morning or go directly to Lord Meng's residence on the west side to wait now." ”
Song Cheng winked at Shen Ye, and said helplessly to Shen Ye: "In this way, I can only go back." ”
Song Cheng and the two returned the way they came, and Shen Ye asked in a low voice, "Uncle Song didn't see anything?" ”
Song Cheng said with a blank expression: "The soldiers here are from the Beida Battalion, and we have no way to follow them secretly." ”
"Beidaying?" Shen Ye was slightly shocked, had all the soldiers in the inner city been replaced by people from the Beida Battalion.
Song Cheng said: "I have been in the army for a few years, and the "hunting" behavior of the patrol soldiers is too familiar, and this is not a reaction that ordinary sergeants from Youzhou can make. ”
Shen Ye looked at Song Cheng in contemplation and asked, "Uncle Song seems to care about my family's Miss Si Si?" ”
Song Cheng asked rhetorically, "What about you?" What are you doing with you? ”
Shen Ye hesitated, he wanted to ask Si Si about the meaning of that word, but it was inconvenient to say this, thinking of his plan to wait a while and Bai Zihuan, Shen Ye's heart moved, and he said, "I want to meet that so-called 'assassin'." ”
Song Cheng relayed through Liu Qingyao that he knew the inside story of this matter, he glanced at Shen Ye strangely, and said, "What did you see that person doing?" Do you know him? ”
Shen Ye explained: "It's Bai Zihuan, he wants to confirm whether that assassin is his grandfather. ”
Song Cheng stopped, turned his head and looked at Shen Ye with a solemn face, "Listen to what you mean, then Bai Jingxiao also came to Youzhou?" ”
Shen Ye heard the name of the old man of the hundred families for the first time, nodded and said: "Bai Zihuan said that his grandfather came to Youzhou to investigate something, and forbade people from the hundred families to come to Youzhou, and now he and his sister came here secretly. ”
Song Cheng narrowed his eyes and said in his heart: "I see, I said why there are only two juniors from the hundred families." Thinking that Bai Jingxiao also came to Youzhou, Song Cheng suddenly felt that something was wrong with the direction of things.
The clouds are slightly open, and the bright moonlight is shining.
Shen Ye looked at Song Cheng's face from the angle behind the side, and was suddenly startled, this Mr. Song Family seems to be a person!
