When Shen Qi heard the news of the holy decree, he was so angry that he almost rushed back immediately, but was finally stopped by Tang Zongjiu.

"Father is confused!" Shen Qi scolded angrily.

"Fengzhi, calm down! Calm down! Tang Zongjiu stretched out his hand to cover Shen Qi's mouth, "There must be a reason, you have to calm down!" ”

"How calm am I!" Shen Qi's face turned red with anger, "Ji Ningxin's house, that guy actually married my fourth brother with Banxi!" What to do with Banxi? What should she do? ”

"But what can you do? Let the father withdraw the decree? Tang Zongjiu asked rhetorically.

"I'm ......!"

Yes, Shen Qi can't do anything.

"We're going to the South soon, do you remember what you wanted to do in the South?" Tang Zongjiu continued to ask.

"I ......" Shen Qi felt sad, thinking of Wang Banxi's current situation, she didn't know what to do.

"Fengzhi, the wood is already in the boat, we can't change anything." Tang Zongjiu hugged Shen Qi in his arms, "Only by doing a good job in the present can you change the future, isn't it?" ”

"Junge, I'm sad." Shen Qi hugged Tang Zongjiu, buried his little face in Tang Zongjiu's chest, and rubbed it vigorously.

"I know, I know." Tang Zongjiu comforted Shen Qi's back, "But the south is coming in less than seven days, and we can't give up halfway." ”

"Junge ......"

Knowing that Shen Qi was in a bad mood, Tang Zongjiu handed over Xiaoyou to Tang Yu and accompanied Shen Qi to sit in the carriage.

Su Fang, Mama Li, Xiao Yu and Qin Siwan sat in another carriage and didn't disturb the two of them.

Shen Tan is the most important son of Emperor Wanzhen, and he is the future prince, therefore, the marriage of the prospective prince, this set of processes will not be completed in a year and a half, and Shen Qi will stay in the south for two years, I don't know if there is time to rush back to participate in Shen Tan's wedding.

Two years may not be enough.

Tang Zongjiu has a saying that is right, now for Shen Qi, it is really racing against time to do everything that needs to be done at the moment.

Shen Qi's footsteps to the south were not delayed, and soon, the group finally arrived at the most central city in the south, Chunfeng City.

Because the scenery in the south was too beautiful, Shen Qi chose to follow Tang Zongjiu on horseback for the last part of the journey.

When the group came to the gate of Chunfeng City, the Qin couple was waiting at the gate early.

"Your Highness!" When Qin Cunde saw Shen Qi, he was excited.

The couple trotted in front of Shen Qi and wanted to kneel down to salute, but Shen Qi immediately stopped him.

"Don't, this is outside, and the horse and I are just 'Tang Gongzi and Mrs. Tang'." Shen Qi said.

The couple got up: "Yes, yes, Tang Gongzi, Mrs. Tang, your accommodation is ready, you are tired from the journey, hurry up and rest." ”

Shen Qi nodded, a lot of things have happened along the way, and the group of them really needs to take a good rest.

"Daddy! Mother! When Qin Siwan saw her parents, she ran up excitedly.

"Siwan!" The couple's eyes turned red.

His daughter really walked out of the ghost gate, and look at it now, this little face is round again.

It's better to be Princess Shu Ning.

Go back and recruit a son-in-law in the south, follow your daughter back to the princess's mansion, and work as an errand for the princess, and they will have no regrets after a hundred years.

Qin Siwan naturally didn't know what her parents were thinking, and she was immersed in the excitement of reuniting with her parents.

And Yan Zhanpeng didn't expect to see Qin Siwan's parents, he and Xiaoyu stood behind the crowd, watching this scene silently.

"Boss......" Xiaoyu said timidly, "Are we going to be without a sister?" ”

"I don't know ......" Yan Zhanpeng finally understood what he thought about Qin Siwan along the way.

He more or less learned about Qin Siwan's experience from others, in the past, Tianfeng Village would also hear a lot of big and small things from the imperial capital, Qin Siwan's matter was very big, but Yan Zhanpeng didn't expect that this woman was Qin Siwan herself.

Yan Zhanpeng is a tenacious man, he can't be straighter, he can't forget the days when Qin Siwan took care of him carefully, he feels that he is Qin Siwan in his life.

But now, looking at the wealth of Jiangnan, looking at the brocade and silk on Qin Siwan's parents, this man with five big and three thick bones has an inferiority complex from the bottom of his heart.

"If you like it, chase it." Tang Yu said with a smile on the side.

"Huh? Pursue? Yan Zhanpeng heard this word for the first time.

"Yes, it's okay to pursue the girl you like." The old god Tang Yu is in the Dao, as if he is a middle master.

"But her family is so good, what am I?" Yan Zhanpeng said.

"No matter what you are, you are not married, she is not married, you are pursuing others in a dignified manner, what's wrong?" Tang Yu encouraged Yan Zhanpeng to say.

Yan Zhanpeng's thoughts about Qin Siwan, almost everyone knows this way.

Except, of course, a few girls.

Su Fang's love for men and women is a blank sheet of paper, her mind is full of running errands, Mama Li is old, except for her own work, other indecent things are ignored, don't say anything and don't listen, Qin Siwan won't think about anything in the direction of love after experiencing it.

"But I ......," Yan Zhanpeng hesitated.

"What are you?" Tang Yu glanced at him, "The dignified owner of Tianfeng Village, you can't be cowardly if you are a man." ”

"Lao Tzu is not cowardly." Yan Zhanpeng retorted.

"Since you don't want to chase you, are you afraid that she will reject you?" Tang Yu asked rhetorically.

“……”

Yan Zhanpeng was asked.

Yes, he was afraid, afraid that his beloved girl would reject him.

Yan Zhanpeng had to admit that the dignified owner of Tianfeng Village was instigated in front of a girl.

The group walked into the city.

Chunfeng City is located in the southern water town, which is a land with a dense network of rivers, and the large and small rivers are interwoven into a complex water system map, and the river water is so clear that you can clearly see the fish and shrimp swimming freely in the water at the bottom of the river.

Most of the houses in Chunfeng City are built by water, mostly wooden structures, beautifully carved wooden lattice windows, and simple and generous brick and stone pavement, revealing a strong water town atmosphere everywhere.

Walking on the bridge, you can hear the gurgling sound of the water under the bridge, and there are several small boats floating on the water, rippling with the water waves.

"The south and the imperial city are really completely different!" Shen Qi was infected by such a breath of life, and the anger that had surged up because of Shen Tan's marriage had dropped a lot at this time.

"It's really different." Tang Zongjiu had never been to the south, and his eyes couldn't help but light up when he saw such a scene.

Chunfeng City is surrounded by fertile paddy fields, which are full of life all year round.

When Shen Qi and his party arrived in Chunfeng City, it was spring, the rice fields were as green as jade, and patches of emerald rice seedlings were swaying in the breeze.

It was morning, and the sun shone on the water, like a mirror reflecting the clouds in the sky, creating an idyllic scene.

"No wonder it is said that the south is so rich, look at the people here, life is rich and rich, it's really good." Shen Qi said with bright eyes.

"Your Highness, on Chinese New Year's Eve, you invited six eminent monks to pray for blessings to all the people of Xi Kingdom, and the people in the south also know about it, and they are thinking about you!" Qin Cunde said with a smile.

"Really?" Shen Qi's eyes brightened a little.

"Really, really." Qin Siwan's mother, Shang Hongwan and Qin Siwan, walked hand in hand, facing Shen Qi and said, "Mrs. Tang, you don't know, you pray for the peace of the country and the people, and the people in the south are talking about it." ”

"Hehe, no, no, no." These few words embarrassed Shen Qi.

When she did this, she didn't expect it to have such an effect.

The group continued to walk into the city.

The lives of the people here are inextricably linked to the water.

They traveled in small boats, washed and cooked in the river water, and even drank.

They live a simple and happy life with fish and shrimp in the water.

It was morning, and the city would be filled with the smell of food, wafting out of the windows of every house.

Shen Qi continued to enjoy the scenery of Spring Breeze City, and the more he watched, the more he liked it.

"Can we also take a boat every day?" Shen Qi asked.

"Of course, Mrs. Tang, your residence is not far from the lake, and there is your own boat on the side, as long as you are happy, you can row every day." Qin Cunde said with a smile.

"That's a good idea!" Shen Qi's mood finally improved a lot.

Soon, everyone came to the residence that Qin Cunde had prepared for Shen Qi.

When Shen Qi saw the two typing of the bright "Tang Mansion", he laughed directly.

Rao is Tang Zongjiu, and he didn't expect it to be "Tang Mansion".

Everyone laughed, the word "Tang Mansion" was taken well, several of them were far away, and Emperor Wanzhen couldn't see it and couldn't care about it.

"Tang Mansion is good!" Shen Qi clapped his hands and laughed.

"Master Tang, Mrs. Tang, please!" Qin Cunde pushed with both hands and opened the door of the Tang Mansion.

"Husband, please!" Shen Qi smiled with crooked eyebrows and teased.

"Lady, please." Tang Zongjiu was also infected by this smile, and said "lady" so naturally.

When Shen Qi heard this, the whole person was stunned.

It was the first time she had heard someone call her "lady".

No, it's the first time I've heard Tang Zongjiu call her "lady".

In Shen Qi's view, from the previous life to this life and then to the next life, or from life to life, there is only one "husband" in Tang Zongjiu.

Tang Zongjiu saw Shen Qi stunned, and remembered the first time Shen Qi called him "husband", he couldn't help but feel interesting.

This time it was obviously to make Shen Qi empathize with him.

"Aren't you used to it?" Tang Zong said with a smile.

"Ah...... Well...... It's not," Shen Qi blushed, "Actually...... It's pretty good......"

"I'll give you a lot of advice from now on, lady." Tang Zongjiu leaned into Shen Qi's ear and said softly.

"Ah, you're so annoying~" Shen Qi ran to the Tang Mansion with a red face, leaving Tang Zongjiu with a fresh fragrance from the ends of his hair.

"Hahaha." Tang Zongjiu smiled heartily and followed into the Tang Mansion.

Tang Mansion is a building full of charm.

Nestled among the green trees and red flowers of the Jiangnan water town, it blends harmoniously with its surroundings and is decorated with delicate wood, brick and stone carvings.

The garden design in the house is even more ingenious, with winding paths and secluded paths, one step at a time.

The small bridges and flowing water, rockeries and strange stones, pavilions and pavilions in the garden all make people feel as if they are in a beautiful Jiangnan ink painting.

Shen Qi couldn't help but be attracted by such a beautiful garden.

"Boss Qin, you have such a good vision!" Shen Qi couldn't help but admire.

"This was originally a house for outsiders, and after his family moved to other places, this house was empty, and at that time I received a letter from Siwan, and I immediately bought the house from outsiders." Qin Cunde said, taking out a title deed from his arms.

"Master Tang, Mrs. Tang, this is the title deed."

"Hey, I can't help it, we only live in this house for a year or two, isn't it vacant after giving it to us?" Shen Qi refused.

"This is the heart of our husband and wife, I hope that Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang will not dislike it." Qin Cunde said respectfully, "The little girl has a life, how can it be exchanged for a house deed in this mere way?" ”

Shen Qi and Tang Zongjiu glanced at each other.

"There's something else about this house that's different." Qin Cunde lowered his voice slightly, "It has a secret passage. ”

This made Shen Qi and Tang Zongjiu not expect.

"Secret Passage?" Shen Qi asked.

"Yes, the secret passage of this house was secretly dug by the outsider back then in order to avoid the enemy, and it led directly to the outside of the city." Qin Cunde said, "In the entire south, I can't find a second room that is more suitable for the two of you." ”

Qin Cunde said that this was the point, and Shen Qi accepted the title deed, and it was a big deal to give the Qin family "benefits" in other ways in the future.

There were not many people brought by Shen Qi this time, and Qin Cunde also specially called people.

"Tang Gongzi, Mrs. Tang, do you have any satisfactory subordinates?"

Tang Zongjiu never cared about this kind of thing, so he naturally handed over Shen Qi.

Shen Qi gave full authority to Mama Li.

"Mama, one Su Fang by my side is enough, at most arrange some sprinkling and sweeping." Shen Qi said.

"Yes, young lady."

Mama Li's eyes are like torches, and she looks at people accurately, and it is best to hand it over to her.

"Come with me." Mama Li glanced at the human teeth.

Renyazi is a person who can read his face, and the Qin family is a big family in Chunfeng City, so he naturally treats this list with all his heart.

"Yes, yes," Renyazi shouted to the group behind him, "keep up!" ”

After Mama Li left with the people, Qin Cunde called a group of people and waited for the carriage to come over.

"Today, our husband and wife are feasting on Tang Gongzi and Mrs. Tang in the best restaurant in Qingfeng City, and the dishes in our south will be full of color, flavor and flavor." Qin Cunde said.

"I heard that there is a famous dish called Qingfeng vinegar fish?" When Shen Qi heard the food, his eyes couldn't help but light up a little.

"Of course!" Qin Cunde smiled, "Mrs. Tang actually knows about this dish?" ”

"I know, I know, the imperial chef ......" Shen Qi paused, "My chef can do it, and my father has been ...... for a while. My dad loves to eat. ”

"Today you are satisfied." Qin Cunde patted his chest and said.

As they spoke, the group walked into the hall.

The interior furnishings of the mansion are full of elegance and taste, exquisite furniture, simple porcelain, precious calligraphy and paintings, and everywhere reveals a unique flavor.

"Boss Qin, you understand it very well." Although Shen Qi does not learn and has no skills, he can appreciate calligraphy, painting and antiques, which is the inheritance of the royal family and has a unique vision.

"Mrs. Tang has won the prize!" Qin Cunde said, "It's just a small thing, I'm afraid of staining your eyes." ”

"How can it be, these calligraphy and paintings are very good, even in the imperial capital, they are also superior." Shen Qi nodded.

At this time, Mama Li had already picked everyone.

"Young master, young lady, everyone has brought it, you have seen it."

Mama Li led people into the lobby.

This time, Mama Li picked four girls, two old women and ten male servants who had some fist and foot skills.

"Husband, are those manservants okay?" Shen Qi looked at Tang Zongjiu.

Tang Zongjiu's gaze swept over several people one by one, and nodded.

"The Tang Mansion doesn't like people with broken mouths, Mama, did you tell them this?" Shen Qi asked.

"I said it." Mama Li said.

Shen Qi faced these sixteen subordinates: "There are not so many rules in the Tang Mansion, do your own thing, we don't care much about our leisure time on weekdays, but it's still the same sentence." ”

Shen Qi paused: "The Tang Mansion doesn't like people who are not strict-mouthed, once you find out that someone is talking about the Tang Mansion outside, you won't want to know the consequences." ”

"What are you still doing?" Mama Li glanced at everyone, "Come and meet the young master and young lady." ”

Everyone knelt down in unison: "Slave and maid to meet the young master, young lady." ”

Shen Qi nodded: "The rest of the matter is up to Mama Li, let's go down." ”

"The slave and maid are gone." The people saluted and departed.

"Su Fang, Mama, Jun Ge and I are going out to eat tonight, and I'll leave it to you here."

"Yes, young lady."

Tingyulou is the largest restaurant in Chunfeng City.

Tingyu Lou is built on the bustling street, the whole restaurant is mainly wooden structure, beautifully carved, the eaves are warped, and it looks simple and elegant.

Shen Qi and Tang Zongjiu walked to the inside of the restaurant.

I saw that in the restaurant, the lights were bright and the atmosphere was warm.

Diners are in an endless stream, or in groups of three or five, or alone, and the table is full of all kinds of delicacies, famous wines, fine wines, and the aroma is overflowing, which makes people dizzy.

The shopkeepers dressed in uniform and walked between the tables with enthusiasm.

In the middle of the lobby on the ground floor of the restaurant, the sound of storytelling is pleasant.

This lively and prosperous appearance is not much better than the restaurants in the imperial capital.

The two walked into the private room upstairs, and at this time, the three members of the Qin family were already waiting in the private room, and a dazzling array of dishes had already been placed on the table.

"Master Tang, Mrs. Tang!" The Qin couple did not forget to salute the two.

"No courtesy, no courtesy." Shen Qi took a handful.

And they sat down.

"These dishes are the signature dishes here, famous far and wide, Mrs. Tang, you can try them." Qin Cunde introduced.

The dishes on the table made Shen Qi jump around alone.

Shen Qi picked and picked, and the first choice was Qingfeng vinegar fish.

I saw that the outer layer of this vinegar fish has been carefully carved, and the surface is fried until golden brown, with verdant green onions and bright red peppers, which makes the whole dish bright and makes Shen Chi's appetite increase.

She took a piece and put it in her mouth.

The fish meat is tender, delicate, tender and juicy, melts in the mouth, the vegetable is moderately sweet and sour, and the taste is rich, which makes Shen Qi have an endless aftertaste.

Shen Qi's eyes suddenly lit up several degrees.

"Delicious!" Shen Qi sandwiched a piece of Tang Zongjiu, "Husband, you can taste it too." ”

Tang Zongjiu was naturally not polite, this was the first time he tasted southern food, and the taste was indeed delicious.

"Boss Qin, go back and pack more, I'll bring some to Su Fang and them."

"Okay!" Qin Cunde nodded and said, "The princess wants to bring as much as she wants." ”

"Boss Qin is always so expensive, how embarrassing is this." Shen Qi said.

"It's really okay, young lady," Qin Siwan said on the side at this time, "I heard that Yulou is my family's property, you can bring as much as you want." ”

Shen Qi: ......

Tang Zong Liquor: ......

Qin Cunde did not inform anyone of this banquet, firstly, Shen Chi's identity was not disclosed, and secondly, he did not get Shen Chi's instructions, so he did not dare to draw the line at will.

This is consistent with Shen Qi's thoughts.

On the first night of their stay in the South, the dinner ended in a state of joy.

However, when Shen Qi and Tang Zongjiu returned to the Tang Mansion and were about to rest, the two suddenly stopped at the same time.

Because of Su Fang, they arranged a room for Shen Qi and Tang Zongjiu. (End of chapter)
