Chapter 163: Ask about the forbidden land
Shen Yuyan's restlessness when she returned to the Shen Mansion Shen Yanshu naturally saw it in her eyes, and some hatred was indelible, just as she had always felt that she had lived so hard because of Shen Yanshu, Meng's death was all because of Shen Yanshu.
Everyone's position is different, and what they think is naturally different, of course Shen Yanshu will not be stupid enough to influence such a person with love.
"Miss, Miss Fifth has asked someone to send something over again. The green kite reluctantly stepped forward and said to Shen Yanshu.
Since Shen Yuyan returned home, she has always been thinking about how to please Shen Yanshu and Shen Kangzhi and make them forgive herself, and Shen Yan'an is concentrating on preparing for the next year's spring, but Shen Jun is not disturbed.
Xiyan said on the side: "Don't take all her things, how many times have you said it." ”
Qing Kite said helplessly: "But the things she sent and the things sent by the eldest lady are mixed together, and we can't tell the difference, so we can't return the things of the eldest lady, right?"
Shen Yanshu put down the pen in his hand and said, "Let's give it all to the people, just say that it was rewarded by the eldest lady and the fifth lady." ”
As long as there are no major problems, he wants to solve them in the most peaceful way, but he doesn't consider the feelings of others and the original face of things, but he just says that harmony is precious.
Shen Yanshu folded the letter he had just written, put it in the envelope, got up from the desk, and just wanted to walk out of the door of the room, when he suddenly thought of something, and his feet were stunned.
"What's wrong with Miss?" asked the kite.
Shen Yanshu said with a straight face: "Is An Tao beside Shen Yuyan a maid in Zhuangzi?"
Qing Kite was also a little stunned when Shen Yanshu asked this, how could she know about Shen Yuyan's matter?
Xiyan said: "Does Miss suspect that An Tao has a problem?"
Shen Yanshu said: "Looking at An Tao's words and deeds, she doesn't seem to be a person who has been raised in Zhuangzi, but like a maid who has been taught a lot of rules." ”
Xiyan and Qing Kite looked at each other, they didn't have much impression of An Tao, and more often they focused on Shen Yuyan's body, and they didn't think too much.
Now that I think about it, something is not quite right.
"I'll have someone to investigate. Xiyan said.
Shen Yanshu pondered for a while, and said: "Let Wei Ye and Wenren go, I always feel that this matter is not simple. ”
Shen Kangzhi knew that it was the Meng family who killed Xiao Yinyin, so he poisoned the Meng family in anger and disappointment, and he was even more disappointed with the son and daughter left by the Meng family.
sent Shen Yuyan to Zhuangzi, which means that the Shen Mansion gave up Shen Yuyan, but no matter what, Shen Yuyan is also the daughter of the Shen family, and her name is still there.
If it was true that she returned to the Shen family only because she was injured, then Shen Yuyan should cherish this hard-won good day even more, rather than provoking her like this.
Xiyan nodded, turned around and went down to arrange.
"Ah Qi, help me deliver a letter. Shen Yanshu called softly.
Ah Qi fell from under the eaves and stood directly in front of Shen Yanshu.
Shen Yanshu handed the envelope in his hand to Ah Qi and said, "Send it to King Ling's Mansion." ”
Ah Qi took the letter, nodded, and then turned around and jumped out of the courtyard directly.
The weather this summer is very hot, obviously I have already worn the coolest tulle skirt, but I still feel that it is too hot, Shen Yanshu sat under the big tree Qianqiu fanned it with his sleeve and took a deep breath, these days are the hottest time in summer, and the weather in Chang'an is really grinding.
Qinglan walked into the courtyard with two boxes of snacks and put them on the stone table under the big tree.
"Miss, this snack has just been soaked in cool well water, and it is just right to eat it now, you can taste it. ”
Shen Yanshu got up from the swing and sat down at the stone table, picked up a small snack, put it in his mouth and took a bite gently, the cool taste melted from his mouth.
"Not bad. Shen Yanshu praised, this pastry is not inferior to the grandmother in the former Zhenbei General's Mansion.
Hearing the young lady's praise, Qinglan was also very happy, this was the first time she tried this kind of cold summer pastry, and she didn't expect it to be so good, not in vain for her two hours of tossing.
When Yan Qinghan walked in from outside the courtyard, he saw Shen Yanshu eating snacks leisurely.
With a smile in the corner of his eye, he stepped forward and sat down across from her.
Shen Yanshu pushed the dim sum in front of him: "You can taste it too." ”
Yan Qinghan picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, the cold taste made his eyes shine.
With a piece in his stomach, he said, "I didn't expect the food in this Shen Mansion to be so exquisite." ”
"Because I have a clever maid. Shen Yanshu said, "Why did you come here by yourself, wouldn't it be good to write a letter?"
In the letter, she asked about the forbidden place in the palace last time, and wondered if there were any other clues.
Yan Qinghan said: "There are many people who know about the forbidden place in the palace that you asked in your heart, after all, it is a place that is forbidden to go by the emperor's order, and at the same time control the public opinion in the palace, saying that it is a quiet place for yourself, and you go once a month, but you don't want others to disturb you." ”
Shen Yanshu said curiously: "Then is there really no one to go to the forbidden place to find out?"
Yan Qinghan looked at the curious little wild cat in front of him, shook his head, and said: "You underestimate his power in the palace too much, since he attaches so much importance to the forbidden land, he will naturally send heavy troops to guard it, and on weekdays, there are very few palace maids and eunuchs who go to the path around the courtyard." ”
Shen Yanshu listened to his words, but frowned every day, supported his chin with one hand, and thought deeply.
It seems that there is really a big secret hidden inside!
Yan Qinghan said, "How did you know about this?"
It stands to reason that this is something that cannot be easily discussed in the palace, let alone spread to the outside world, how did she know about it?
Shen Yanshu didn't hide it from him, and said: "I came up to Concubine Shu to order me to enter the palace, I knew by accident, I wanted to ask you for a long time, but I have been delayed by other things." ”
Yan Qinghan said: "This matter must not be moved in vain, if you are just curious, it is best not to touch his taboo, otherwise he will not be soft." ”
His eyes sank as he said this.
That place is a secret to everyone, and it seems that there are indeed people who have suffered here.
Shen Yanshu looked at Yan Qinghan and said seriously, "What if I don't just go to investigate because I'm curious?"
"What do you mean?" Yan was puzzled.
Shen Yanshu flashed his eyes and said, "In that courtyard, there are people from the Zhenbei General's Mansion. ”
Hearing her words, Yan Qinghan was stunned, but he didn't expect to be involved in the Zhenbei General's Mansion.
However, with Shen Yanshu's temperament, he has never been a nosy person, if it weren't for the fact that this matter was related to something she was interested in, she would naturally not ask him about it.
Yan Qinghan groaned for a while before he asked, "Are you sure it's really from the Great General's Mansion in Zhenbei?"
Shen Yanshu nodded and said: "I can see it clearly, there is a grandmother in it, that is, the grandmother next to the general's wife, but I only saw her alone, and I don't know anything else." ”
If only she had been more cautious that day.
Looking at Shen Yanshu's tangled appearance, Yan Qinghan said: "Don't act rashly, there are many guards in the courtyard of the forbidden land, and they can compete with the emperor's bedroom, and you may be difficult to parry alone." ”
Shen Yanshu looked embarrassed: "But I really want to know what's going on." ”
"This is a matter of long-term consideration. Yan Qing said coldly, "What's more, if you want to enter the palace, it is not easy, you need to arrange carefully." ”
The emperor attached great importance to that courtyard, and even at night he would send heavy troops to guard it, and ordinary people could not succeed at all.
Shen Yanshu didn't know that this matter would be so complicated, so he could only frown.
Yan Qinghan asked, "Why did you leave halfway through the wedding of Pei Mansion that day?"
Shen Yanshu looked up at him and said, "I just felt bored and left, anyway, they will leave Chang'an in a few days after they get married, so there's no need to be unhappy." ”
Her tone was more brisk than when she used to talk about these two people, which made Yan Qinghan a little puzzled.
But later, Chu Linche told him about the incident in the Shenji Camp that day, Shen Yanshu had a good relationship with Xue Ziqing, and even gave Shen Yanshu two capable subordinates, which didn't look like a good thing.
Yan Qinghan remembered the last time An Ruyi and they designed Shen Yanshu, and finally ended with Xue Ziqing killing Gu Zijun, he wondered why this Xue Ziqing would help Shen Yanshu, these two people didn't seem to have anything to do with each other.
There is also the governor of Liangjiang, Yin Wuyu, how many chips does Shen Yanshu still have in his hands......
Shen Yanshu looked at him and looked at his eyes, and asked puzzledly, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
Yan Qinghan said: "It's just curious." ”
Shen Yanshu naturally knew that he was talking about his identity, maybe he had heard some news again, and he couldn't understand it, so he would say such a thing, she said: "When the matter of the Qi family comes out, I will tell you my identity." ”
Yan Qinghan rubbed his jaw and said, "It seems that you can't wait to bring down King Ning." ”
Shen Yanshu picked up another dim sum and took a bite, and only after eating one did he say, "How are Mei Jue and Qiu Qianrong doing recently?"
Yan Qinghan wanted them to take the position of Shangshu, and he must be very concerned about this matter.
"They have listened to your opinion, and have already handed over the self-recommendation excerpt, and it is estimated that the emperor will make some moves in the next two days. Yan Qinghan said.
Shen Yanshu asked again, "Can they agree to side with you?"
Yan Qinghan said: "I haven't told them about this yet, I just gave them advice, after all, neither of them is the kind of person who uses party struggle to win the future, so they can only think about it slowly." ”
Shen Yanshu chuckled: "If the two of them knew that the prince was actually calculating them, I don't know what they would think in their hearts?"
Yan Qinghan poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip gently, but it didn't matter: "There are a lot of calculations in this court, but they are all capable people, if not, I don't know when they will come out." ”
"They are not fools, they will definitely thank the prince for his promotion in the future, even if they don't stand in the party struggle, they will help you more or less in the future. Shen Yanshu said.
Yan Qinghan didn't answer, just looked at Shen Yanshu who was talking coolly, she looked really good-looking.
