Heng Guogong is the maternal grandfather of the second prince Ning Wang, naturally a member of Ning Wang's party, although the emperor does not like the prince to collude with the courtiers, but in private Ning Wang has attracted a lot of people, he also tried to win over Qi Yi, Qi Yi was naturally unmoved.

Qi Yi knew very well that the prince could win over the Chinese courtiers, but he must not collude with the military ministers, which was the emperor's bottom line.

The eldest prince King An and the second prince King Ning checked and balanced each other in the court, and the emperor also turned a blind eye, but if the military minister intervened again, the emperor would naturally be unable to hold his breath.

But facts have proved that even if their Qi family did not participate in the party struggle, did not have the intention of rebellion, and did not even want to go further, they still fell to such a fate, the royal family is cold, and that's it.

Shen Yanshu's heart turned back and forth, but the carriage had already stopped.

"Miss, the Weng Mansion has arrived. The driver said.

Shen Yanshu got out of the carriage, and someone from the Weng family was already waiting there, and when she saw her get out of the carriage, she hurriedly stepped forward.

"Miss Shen, I am the housekeeper of Weng Mansion, and my surname is You. A gray-clothed man about forty years old stepped forward and saluted Shen Yanshu.

Shen Yan shook his head, said hello, and said, "Steward You." ”

"Our young lady has been waiting for a long time, please Miss Shen come with me. Steward You said and made a gesture of invitation, and took Shen Yanshu into the Weng Mansion.

Weng's mansion is not big, and the furnishings are very simple, but it does not make people feel stingy, but has a generous and simple beauty. Ruan Leyao's yard is not far from the front yard, and the location is also very good, so it can be seen that her status in the Weng family is indeed not ordinary.

When Shen Yanshu arrived at Ruan Leyao's courtyard, she was practicing her sword, wearing a black training arm, her long green hair was tied up high, and she looked very chic!

"Miss, Miss Shen has arrived. Steward You said.

Ruan Leyao had already heard the movement, and when she heard Steward You's words, she put away the sword, handed it to the person next to her, and then took the sweat towel handed over by the maid and wiped the sweat on her forehead.

Shen Yanshu still has a good impression of Ruan Leyao, after all, almost none of the women in Chang'an City can dance swords and swords, and few women in the boudoir are good at the imperial archery in the arts, but Ruan Leyao is unique, but she is generally quite interested in martial arts when she was Qi Yunge in her previous life.

She stepped forward and saluted, and said, "Excuse me, Miss Ruan came here this time to thank Miss Ruan for saving her that day, because she only recovered her body in the past two days, so she came to visit, I hope Miss Ruan doesn't feel abrupt!"

Shen Yanshu's tone was unhurried and very sincere, Ruan Leyao wiped her sweat and threw the sweat towel to the person who was waiting beside her, looking at her, her eyebrows raised, but she felt that this Shen Yanshu was different from before.

She is the same age as Shen Yanshu, and she went to women's school in Zhaodetang, and she has also seen it, but she doesn't have much impression of Shen Yanshu, Shen Yanshu is soft and cowardly, has few friends, and is often embarrassed by Shen Yuyan's design, and later because of her disfigurement, she is even more inferior and unwilling to talk to others, and she has no sense of existence at all.

Compared to today, it's really far behind.

"The Shen Mansion has already come to thank you before. Ruan Leyao said.

Shen Yanshu said: "The grace of saving my life should be thanked in person." I also sent someone to make some snacks today, if Miss Ruan doesn't dislike it, you can try it. ”

Ruan Leyao saw that she looked familiar, so she couldn't refuse, so she invited her into the room together.

As soon as Shen Yanshu entered the inner room, she saw several swords hanging on the wall, and she was stunned for a moment, because one of them was the Lingyun Sword that her father had used before his death.

"What, you're scared?" Ruan Leyao saw that her eyes were full of surprise, and she thought that she, like other ordinary women, would not like to see these weapons.

Shen Yanshu shook his head and looked away from the Lingyun Sword.

When the maid came up with tea, Shen Yanshu took off his veil, didn't see it, took a sip of tea, and calmed his mind.

"Your face ......" Ruan Leyao looked at her face, where was there the previous stumbling look, and was a little surprised for a while.

Shen Yanshu smiled and explained: "Probably the so-called catastrophe will have a blessing after not dying, and after a few days of recuperation, the spots on the face will naturally disappear." ”

"Then are you still going back to Zhaode Hall?" asked Ruan Leyao.

Shen Yanshu said: "Naturally, I want to go back." ”

Ruan Leyao was a little surprised, and said: "A month later, it will be the school exam of Zhaodetang, since the body is not yet well, it is better to continue to raise." ”

Shen Yanshu could hear the meaning of Ruan Leyao's words, with her current reputation, it might not be a good thing to return to Zhaode Hall, and after passing the school exam, she didn't have to go to women's school anymore when she was about to pass the school.

But Shen Yanshu must go, for the school exam.

The annual school examination of Zhaodetang has always been a major event in Chang'an City, different from the traditional six arts of gentlemen inspected by other schools, Zhaodetang examines the seven homework of female students in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, arithmetic, etiquette and imperial archery, and those who do well will also receive royal rewards. Because they are all official ladies, there are also many people who come to see people with the intention of getting married.

Shen Yanshu wants to know more about the inside story of the Qi family, she can't just be limited to the Shen family, and this school exam is the time for her to shine, only by getting good results in the school exam, the Shen family will pay more attention to her, and only then can they have the opportunity to contact more people and get more news!

That day, after seeing her handwriting, Shen Jun proposed to let her continue to return to Zhaodetang, presumably with such a thought, even if she only got good grades in calligraphy, it could make the Shen family's reputation better.

She said: "Although my body is not as good as Miss Ruan, I have never fallen behind in my homework. The school exam is imminent, so it is natural to be more attentive. ”

Ruan Leyao's eyes flashed slightly, and she couldn't help but look a little more at Shen Yanshu's gaze, but said, "Miss Shen is really confident. ”

Shen Yanshu smiled and said nothing, and asked Qing Kite to bring out a plate of the magnolia cake and rose cake, and let Ruan Leyao taste it first.

Although she had eaten a lot of delicious dim sum, Ruan Leyao still felt that these two pastries were particularly appetizing, and ate two more pieces.

"There are so many swords in your room, they all seem to be good, but what is the origin?" Shen Yanshu was still thinking about his father Qi Yi's Lingyun Sword in his heart, and suddenly asked.

Ruan Leyao said: "There is no origin, but I feel that I have collected some of it because I think it is easy to use." What, are you interested?"

Shen Yanshu nodded, and said with some pity: "It's just that I can't have a sword by myself, and I feel sorry when I think about it." ”

Ruan Leyao was eating rose cake at this time, and when she saw her say this, she casually followed her words and said, "If you like it, you can also choose one, and I will give it to you." ”

"Is that serious?"

Shen Yanshu's face was overjoyed, and Ruan Leyao looked expectant.
