"Besides, the girl in the evening boat has entered the court, you ......"

"The Queen Mother."

I wish the Empress Dowager to keep talking, Yuan Chen reluctantly interrupted, and defended himself in a low voice, "My son has long lost his mind about Wanzhou, and he has no heart for the harem, just because of the country." ”

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager Zhu was skeptical, pushed the portrait in front of him, and said softly, "Whether you have leisure or not, the harem must not be empty, if you want to stabilize the country, you can't cope with it on your own." ”

When it came to this, Yuan Chen couldn't refuse anymore, so he had to flip through it casually.

Coincidentally, I found an acquaintance.

Yuan Chen looked at the person above, pinched the fingertips of the portrait tightly, and his eyes flashed, as if he was thinking about something.

Empress Dowager Zhu sensed that something was wrong, looked at his gaze, and sighed, "Isn't this Prime Minister Yun's daughter-in-law?" It seems to be called ......"

"Yun Qinghe." Yuan Chen slowly spoke, calling out the name of the person on the painting.

"Yes, that's the girl." Zhu Empress Dowager looked at the portrait and was satisfied, "The flowers and the moon are good, the family background is good, when the first emperor is still there, Prime Minister Yun is still the princess, leading the family into the palace banquet, I have seen the girl from afar, although she looks a little cold, but the appearance is really good-looking." ”

Hearing this, Yuan Chen was stunned, and the little girl's face was flushed with crying because she couldn't afford to buy sugar gourds, and she felt a little funny for a while, "I'm afraid it's fake." ”

Zhu Empress Dowager was surprised, and looked him up and down, "Listening to your familiar tone, is it possible that you have ever gotten along with her?" ”

Yuan Chen straightened his expression and shook his head in denial, "No, it's just my son's random speculation." ”

"If the queen mother also likes her, it is better to choose her to enter the palace and receive the jade Ruyi."

"You're going to choose her to be queen?" Empress Dowager Zhu was shocked in her heart and asked in a low voice.

Yuan Chen nodded, pulled out Yun Qinghe's portrait, and said in a low voice, "The queen mother also said that she has a prominent family background and good appearance, such a character is naturally the best choice for the queen." ”

Empress Dowager Zhu frowned, a little incredulous, "Why did you suddenly change your temper?" ”

Yuan Chen's fingertips paused, Shen Ji's words sounded in his mind, and his earlobes also heated, "It's nothing ......"

-

Huyong County

Shen Ji leaned against the side of the car, his long eyelashes drooping, the moonlight reflected on his body, and he couldn't see his expression clearly.

"Shen Ji."

Hearing the voice, Shen Ji slowly raised his head and met his gaze with Fang Xu, who was also under the moon.

Seeing Fang Xu, Shen Ji subconsciously hooked the corners of his mouth and called in a deep voice, "Madam." ”

Fang Xu took off his hat, his steps were a little faster, and he urged, "The inn is all set up, and two upper rooms have been booked, the location is good, let's go early and return early." ”

Shen Ji blinked, but still nodded, "Okay." ”

The two got into the carriage and went straight to the Zhuo Wen Hou Mansion, but in a quarter of an hour, they stood in front of the Hou Mansion.

The night was a little late, the curfew in the small county town was late, and the lights in Zhuo Wenhou's mansion were bright, as if they were celebrating something.

The next person went in to report, and after a while, a man strode out.

When the man is middle-aged, he is still elegant, and it is not difficult to see that he was handsome when he was young, and his appearance is three or four points similar to Shen Ji.

Seeing Shen Ji, the man was stunned at first, didn't think much about it, and talked to him with a smile, "Lord Shen, I have admired my name for a long time." ”

Shen Ji looked at him and was stunned for a long time, until he heard Fang Xu's light cough before he came back to his senses, "Zhuo Wenhou is extraordinary, and when I see it today, it is really as rumored." ”

"Lord Shen praised falsely, and the more ashamed he was, he didn't dare to be ashamed."

Shen Ji's mouth was sweet, and Zhuo Wenhou's heart was full of joy, "Lord Shen is tired of traveling and driving, please go into the house to rest." ”

Shen Ji bowed his head and said softly, "Thank you." ”

Zhuo Wenhou smiled easily and reached out towards the mansion, "Lord Shen doesn't have to be polite, please." ”

Shen Ji quietly glanced at Fang Xu and stepped into Zhuo Wenhou's mansion.

At night, Zhuo Wenhou's mansion was lit up, and the more you walked inside, the clearer the laughter became.

Shen Ji looked sideways at the man on the side, and asked in a low voice, "It's so late, and the house is still so lively, but what's the joy?" ”

"Lord Shen is a coincidence, this is Yue's grandson's birthday, and please Lord Shen must drink a glass of festive wine!"

When it came to his grandson, the smile on Zhuo Wenhou's face couldn't be suppressed.

Shen Ji paused, his face a little dazed, "Grandson? ”

Zhuo Wenhou looked at him with a smile, a little unresponsive.

Shen Ji suddenly came back to his senses and pulled the corners of his mouth far-fetchedly, "With his grandson around his knees, Zhuo Wenhou is really a blessing." ”

Zhuo Wenhou laughed twice and agreed, "Look at Lord Shen's youth, he should be about the same age as my son, I wonder if this is Mrs. Shen?" ”

Zhuo Wenhou stared at Fang Xu, obviously asking her.

Shen Ji's body stiffened, and he didn't dare to look back at Fang Xu's face.

Fang Xu seemed to be aware of his emotions, his eyes darkened, Shi Shiran saluted, and said with a smile, "The concubine has seen Zhuo Wenhou. ”

This answer was ambiguous, not only did not refute Shen Ji's face, but also took Zhuo Wenhou's words.

Zhuo Wenhou couldn't help nodding and quipped with Shen Ji, "Shen Daren is a good fortune to have such a beautiful lady." ”

Shen Ji opened his mouth, and before he could speak, he saw a boy running out of the corner not far away, about eight or nine years old.

"Grandfather!" The boy threw himself into Zhuo Wenhou's arms, and said in a muffled voice, "Ming'er has been waiting for a long time, and I haven't seen my grandfather come back." ”

The smile on Zhuo Wenhou's face was even worse, he hugged the boy and said in a low voice, "Ming'er is good, grandfather has something to do right now." ”

"What's more important than Ming'er's birthday?" The boy raised his head, his little face was full of accusations, and then he noticed that someone was there, turned his head to look at Shen Ji, and pouted, "Who are you and why did you come to our house?" ”

Shen Ji's heart ached, and he looked at the defense in the boy's eyes, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Ming'er, don't be rude!" Zhuo Wenhou scolded lightly, hugged him in his arms, and smiled at Shen Ji, "Lord Shen, this grandson of Yue is stubborn, and there is no one in the house on weekdays, and the insiders dote on him and neglect to discipline, please don't blame Lord Shen." ”

Shen Ji shook his head, he didn't know what was blocking his throat, and he couldn't say a word.

Zhuo Wenhou lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "Ming'er, this adult is from the capital, don't play with your petty temperament again!" ”

The boy pouted, his face dissatisfied, "Ming'er just wants her grandfather to accompany her on his birthday, and she doesn't want her grandfather to be snatched away by others." ”

Word by word passed into Shen Ji's ears, which was quite ironic.

Who robbed whose family.

Fang Xu frowned, took a step forward, and was about to speak, but was held by Shen Ji's wrist.

Fang Xu was stunned for a moment, and looked sideways at Shen Ji.

Shen Ji's face was pale, he forcibly held back the sourness in his heart, and shook his head at her.

Fang Xu lowered his eyes and retreated quietly.

"Father, why are you staying here?"

Suddenly, a male voice sounded, and Shen Ji followed the prestige and met the eyes of the man under the moon gate. (End of chapter)
