Chapter 2 The housekeeper is also an aunt can choose?
At this time, the spring in the capital is strong, the bird's nest is around the beam, whose yard blooms, you can see the flower color from the outside of the wall from afar.
A spring color on the branches, the riverside willow pumping new strips.
But the spring is only a little strong, and it can stay in the green capital for a while.
Shen Zhiyun's carriage stopped in the Shen Mansion, and the curtain moved slightly.
With a few sounds of children playing and chasing, the two reckless children hit the wheels.
The body shook, and before Shen Zhiyun could signal, the guards at the door hurriedly rushed down the steps and scolded.
"What for? Where did the hairy boy come from! ”
"I saw clearly that this was the frame of the Shen family, and I dared to collide!"
"The threshold of this Shen family is a splash of wealth that you two mud babies can't get into!"
The two children, who were playing for a while, were also stunned, standing beside the carriage in a daze, their little hands clenching their trouser legs, and timidly watching the guards not dare to move.
"Bai Bian."
In the carriage, Shen Zhiyun spoke softly.
Bai Bian immediately understood, lifted his eyelids and glanced at the guard, and after staying with his master Shen Zhiyun for a long time, he could also quietly sharpen his eyes, making the eyes of the person being looked at cold.
This guard is a fox and a fake tiger, accustomed to observing words and feelings, after receiving this trick, he suddenly understood the meaning of the master, and his heart was shocked, he wanted to protect the master to show his loyalty, but he didn't want to make the master unhappy.
At that moment, he bent over, nodded his head, and flattered with a smile, "Lord Bai Bian......"
"Don't dare."
Bai Bian interrupted him.
"I'm just a small guy next to Lord Shen, I don't dare to do something arrogant without knowing the sky, be a man, you should understand how many taels you have, I am far from being able to reach the intelligence of adults, but the accounts of these few cents and taels are still clear."
The guard's smile froze on his face, and he didn't retreat or advance, and he shouldn't or shouldn't, so he had to be flattered.
"Yes, yes, it's a small trespass."
Bai Bian walked up to the two children and squatted down, smiled kindly, took out a few taels of silver from the bag, and comforted, "Lord Shen is not angry, the adults are very happy to see you having fun, these pieces of silver are not much, go buy some snacks and have fun." ”
The two children were not very old, and they immediately smiled when they got the silver, and in a blink of an eye, they ignored the intimidation just now, and turned back to learn from the adults while running, shouting thanks.
"Thank you, Lord Shen!"
"Lord Shen is really a good person!"
The voice was crisp, with the immaturity of a child, which made the pedestrians on the street laugh and look at it a few more times.
Shen Zhiyun, who was half-lifted the curtain, also chuckled.
got out of the car, Bai Bian followed behind Shen Zhiyun, and never gave the guard a second look.
It's just that when he walked past the guard, all the family members at the door heard a few words spit out in Lord Shen's cold voice.
"Hypocrisy is like a lackey."
This is very important, although the guards who have not read the book do not understand much, they can also understand the word "lackey", and a thin layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on their backs, and they regretted what they had just done.
The other guards couldn't help but stand upright, and couldn't help but be afraid.
"Who is looking for these family members? I've met me several times. ”
Shen Zhiyun said as he walked, his tone was not heavy, and it seemed to be an ordinary inquiry.
Bai Bian heard the adult's unhappiness.
"Aunt Jiang's cousin recruited these newcomers, and Mrs. has been in poor health recently, so she didn't care about it." Bai Bian replied.
"Nonsense, the housekeeper is also an aunt can choose. If I weren't my son-in-law, would there still be my mother's place in this house? ”
Shen Zhiyun's mother, Shen Hai, was originally the only daughter of the Hai family, and she was also talented and famous in the capital back then, and the young masters and sons of other families could not break through the threshold and ask to marry.
Later, Shen Pingshan, Shen's father, was married into the door, which was a good story, but Shen Hai's family had not been pregnant for three years, and Shen's father took this opportunity to welcome Jiang's family into the door as an aunt.
This Jiang family is a daughter of the old lady's mother's family, and it must be the old lady's instructions, and no one dares to say anything.
In a large family, it is normal for a few aunts to live.
But this Aunt Jiang became pregnant only a few months after entering the house, and everyone said that this eldest lady was incompetent, so Shen Hai was depressed, and she was pregnant and never found out for a long time.
Later, even if she found out that she was pregnant, she was always very angry with Aunt Jiang in the early stages of pregnancy, and her health was always bad.
At that time, the son of the Hai family, that is, the elder brother of Shen Hai, provoked the displeasure of the saint in the court, was demoted to a magistrate, and moved out of the capital with his family.
The Hai family plummeted for a while, which made people sigh.
There is no one in Shen Hai's mother's family, Shen's father indulges the concubine, and the people in the house are used to looking at the situation of the master, and they all go to please the concubine.
Worried about his mother's family and his own unhappiness in the house, Shen Haishi was born prematurely without accident.
One day and one night later, Shen Hai gave birth to a female fetus.
The nurse took it upon herself to falsely call the newborn baby a man.
The birth of the son-in-law, Shen Pingshan gave the main house of his mother's family due attention.
Shen Haishi, who woke up after fainting from premature birth, knew about this, tearful eyes, tremblingly pulled the sleeve of the nurse Gui Mama, her knuckles were white, her pale lips trembled, and she said sadly: "Mama is confused!" Confused! ”
Not long after, Aunt Jiang also gave birth to a concubine, Mama Gui did not regret it, and said firmly to Shen Hai's family: "Madame's mother's family has left Beijing, then Madame is no different from a commoner from now on, the lord favors the concubine and destroys his wife, Madame needs to cheer up, and it will all depend on the little son to rise in the future." ”
Shen Zhiyun, who is also a loss, is not inferior to a man over the years, whether he is studying or being an official, he has pressed that son everywhere.
In fact, not only is it to suppress that concubine, but there are a few young masters in the capital of the same age who can compare to Shen Zhiyun's reputation.
The 12th division inherited Qi Shenming, the 18th Jinshi and the first, for the first champion, is the cabinet scholar of the imperial pen himself, participated in the political affairs, and assisted His Majesty in reviewing the chapter.
There are floats patrolling the streets in front of them, and how many famous ladies are secretly promising for a while.
Later, he had remarkable political achievements and was talented as the son-in-law of the ladies of each family.
A few years ago, the stubborn compilation of evil books in Chengzhou Academy, the arrangement of the inner court, spread widely, His Majesty was furious, patted the case and waved his sleeves, and swept all the case documents on the table to the ground, and connected with the Rui Brain Golden Beast, rolled out on the ground with a bang, just like Zhu's pen ruthlessly judged, and ordered the beheading of one hundred and sixteen people in the academy.
The chamberlain fell to his knees, like a small quail, terrified and trembling.
Above the court, everyone looked at each other, holding wat boards, but no one dared to speak.
If you really want to behead all the 116 scholars, won't the students of the world be chilled? Will the people's hearts not be disturbed?
Where were the 116 students who were beheaded, the order was clearly the mouth of all the people in the world, the flesh and blood were the mouthpieces under the pen and ink, and the blood was stained with the sincere hearts of the students in the world.
This is a bloody case unseen in a century, a big bloody case!
Only Shen Zhiyun knelt down without warning and shouted, "Please take back your majesty's fate!" ”
His Majesty said coldly, "Shen Aiqing wants to be the first to rise the momentum?" ”
If there is a momentum, it will be killed.
"The minister is a cabinet scholar, and his post is to assist His Majesty. This decree is not appropriate, I am afraid that there will be trouble, it is for the public of the world, for the people of all ages, and for the right path of Your Majesty. ”
The court is silent, it is really as silent as death, the cold sweat behind the people is silent, and the panic in the hearts of the people is silent.
His Majesty, who sits on the throne of the dragon, is silent.
The kneeling scholar Shen was also silent.
Finally.
"Since this is the case, Lord Shen will go to the Criminal Department to think about how to act and what to do about this situation."
His Majesty looked at the people in the audience coldly, stood up and left the court.
Shen Zhiyun stood up neither humbly nor arrogantly, and two attendants came from both sides to take her hostage to the Ministry of Punishment, but they only dared to make a false position, but Shen Zhiyun walked in front, and the two followed behind.
And this matter was finally an impulse of His Majesty.
When His Majesty figured it out and regretted it, he personally invited Shen Zhiyun out of the prison and ordered Shen Zhiyun to go to Chengzhou to handle the matter.
When he came back, he was promoted from a university scholar to a cabinet second-assistant, and the second-aider in his twenties is also unique, and his elegance is peerless.
Even Shen Pingshan, the household servant, could not arouse Shen Zhiyun.
Shen Zhiyun also asked Shen Hai many times.
"If my mother is willing, I will immediately ask the clan elders to testify, set up my own door, and move out of this Shen Mansion, far away from him Shen Pingshan and the Jiang family."
Shen Haishi always shook his head gently, took Shen Zhiyun's hand, and sighed lightly, "If you can live a good life, you don't have to pay attention to it." You are now a courtier, your identity is so sensitive, you set up your own door and split up with your biological father, how many people will be involved in your book in the court, don't be confused. ”
"If his daughter's body is known in the future, he Shen Pingshan will also protect you for the sake of his Shen family."
Shen Zhiyun sneered in his heart, if there was really such a day, Shen Pingshan would be eager to break up the relationship with their mother and daughter, and it would be good if he didn't fall into the well to invite merit.
It's just that she didn't say this to Shen Hai, her mother fell ill when she was pregnant with her, Jiang has been looking for a lot of things over the years, her mother has been depressed, and she is not very happy, and it is not a bad thing to have some luck and expectations for Shen Pingshan.
When people live, they must always have some hope, or hope that their power will be monstrous, or that their children will be happy on their knees, or that their husbands and prodigal sons will turn back, and there must always be hope.
"Ask Brother Chang'an."
Entering the inner courtyard, a crisp voice came, it was Jiang's second child, Shen Huiyi.
The Jiang family has firmly grasped Shen Pingshan's heart over the years, in addition to the support of the old lady and his own means, the most basic appearance conditions must be indispensable.
Shen Huiyi got the favor of her mother, a pair of peach blossom eyes with affection, and a slender figure, and now it is time for the Xu family, from time to time there are high-ranking people to deliver posts, but they are all rejected by the Jiang family as a girl, but in fact, they still look down on the fake high-ranking families who deliver the posts, to put it bluntly, which family's real high-ranking family will ask to marry a concubine.
It's not that the concubine is like it, but this concubine is the daughter of the Shen family with a chaotic wife and concubine, and the ladies of the Gaomen are most annoyed by the women who don't have their status in the backyard.
Once Jiang wanted to become a flat wife, and now her daughter wants to marry into the marquis's mansion, and this mother and daughter are really ...... It makes people laugh.
Shen Zhiyun never gave Jiang's people a good face, they were used to pretending to be polite and polite, but in fact, they were waiting for the price behind their backs and selling, and they were all unpopular.
Jiang's is like this, her son Shen Zhize is like this, and her daughter Shen Huiyi is also like this.
Shen Zhiyun knew about the lives carried out in the second room, one by one, but her mother still wanted to see a happy scene of the family, she never broke it, so that the family of the household servant who spoiled the concubine and killed his wife still maintained a decent manner.
Her mother wants to settle, and if she doesn't cause trouble in the Jiang family's house, she is willing to let this backyard matter go down like this.
"Hmm."
After Shen Zhiyun responded coldly, he walked towards his residence.
"Every time the girl sees the eldest son, she is always polite and decent, but the eldest prince is always cold and indifferent, and the second son is too, do you have to make the brothers estranged? Now that the eldest prince is in a high position, we are not happy in the second room. ”
Shen Huiyi's maidservant Ah Lan complained dissatisfiedly.
"Alan, don't talk nonsense." Shen Huiyi raised her hand to stop it and looked in the direction where Shen Zhiyun left.
"My brother and our second room have always been cold, and it's not aimed at me, what do you have to be angry about."
"Today, Qi Lao celebrates his birthday, and the people who go are all literati, not ministers of the court, or famous people, if my father goes, he can take me along. It's a pity that my father has been busy with government affairs recently, so he entrusted his eldest brother to give gifts, but the second brother was unreliable and failed to get an invitation. ”
"After a while, we will sit in a small sedan chair, follow behind the eldest brother, and quietly go to Qi Mansion to have a look."
Shen Huiyi stretched out her hand to fold off a newly blooming delicate flower, the flower was delicate, and the flower dress she was wearing today matched it.
She lowered her eyebrows, looking at the delicate flower that had left the branch, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Back in his room, Shen Zhiyun changed out of his official uniform and wore a azure robe, with auspicious clouds and wild cranes in the front, and gold silk lines, which were elegant and elegant, and not too solemn, and it was just right to go to the teacher's birthday banquet.
I took out the congratulatory gift I prepared by myself and checked it, it was a pine-carved piece of ruby jade.
If this jade itself is valuable, it is far from being talked about for Qi Lao, but this congratulatory gift is intended to be carved by Shen Zhiyun himself.
When I went to Chengzhou to do business a few years ago, His Majesty angrily locked Shen Zhiyun in the Criminal Department for a few days, and the students in Chengzhou were still sincere in their hearts, and they were instigated to do something wrong for a while, implicating people who were really good for them, and Shen Zhiyun came here to handle the case in person, and they cooperated very much.
This case was handled smoothly, and when the case could be closed, it was not yet the expected time to return, firstly, in order to beat these students, and secondly, it was also for selfishness, Shen Zhiyun pressed the case for another half a day.
During this period, I studied with local artists with high skills for half a month, and after returning to Beijing, I carved several pieces of warm jade, which became such a gift full of students' hearts.
Looking at the congratulatory gift he prepared, Shen Zhiyun couldn't help but think of Gu Hanshu, saying that he wanted to let him help look at the birthday gift for the teacher, and he was not happy to get into the car and pestered her, and now he doesn't know what things this person has prepared.
But what does he Gu Hanshu have to do with her, classmates and Gu Hanshu are just studying in the academy and listening to Master Qi's lectures, according to the literati, although they are all under Master Qi, only Shen Zhiyun, who has done the apprenticeship of the Eight Classics, is really a closed student of Qi Lao, and the relationship with Qi Lao is also beyond the reach of ordinary people.
