The Beautiful Land - Chapter 104
“Second Young Master Xinyue the girl in the backyard?” At this moment, in the main hall, Shen Qianlan had just finished paying homage to the ancestor, and asked the old servant to withdraw from the countertop and start to keep the year old.
One of the Shen family’s stewards, his mother, Zhang’s confidant, Shen Gui, accompanied him to talk about some trivial matters, and asked nonchalantly, “Although there are servants and maidservants, whether men and women give or receive marriages, they stay for the New Year. In the back…Second Young Master must have some thoughts too?”
Shen Xiaolan glanced at him and said, “Is this my mother asked you to ask?”
“Madam said that you are this age, and there should be someone who knows the cold and the heat by your side.” Shen Gui also said that he is the son of the Shen family. He looked at Shen Qiang Lan and grew up with ordinary servants. It’s different. In the mansion, the master is decent in front of him. This kind of remarks can be said, “Although the affairs of Miss Song’s family did not officially break up in Yingtian Mansion, everyone is paying attention to this area because of the Kaihe incident. Guess. Madam said that although the family has no plans to marry the Song family, there is no need to make Miss Song faceless. So I intend to slow down your marriage, so I am afraid that you will be running around here for the past two years and no one will take care of it. .”
Shen Qianlan said indifferently: “My mother takes care of the backyard every day, so she won’t bother with the trivial things on my side.”
Shen Gui knew that this was too much trouble for the Zhang family, and he smiled: “I am worried about my mother.”
“How is Donggong?” Shen Qianlan didn’t want to talk about this issue, so he asked, “How often do you face the saint?”
“You also know the body and bones of your Royal Highness.” The future of the East Palace is closely related to the Shen family, but it is also of great importance. Shen Gui did not dare to neglect when he heard this, and said hurriedly, “It is not very convenient to enter and leave, because of the supervision of the country. Even if His Majesty has returned to Yingtian Mansion now, His Royal Highness still assists in various political affairs from the side. Apart from the upper court, he is very busy in private, so he rarely goes to see his Majesty alone.”
“However, it is inconvenient for His Royal Highness. Isn’t there still the eldest grandson? Your majesty’s love for the eldest grandson, who doesn’t know about the civil and martial arts of the Manchu Dynasty? Before he personally conquered Saibei, let the eldest grandson sit in Shuntian Mansion…
At this point, Shen Gui smiled, “The family master said that if there is nothing unexpected, there should be no setbacks. After all, the prince is both long and long, and there is no fault.”
Shen Pilan nodded: “It’s better to proceed with caution.”
“This is natural.” Shen Gui said, “Who can really relax before the dust settles on such important events?”
Speaking of this question, he remembered something, “After the next year, the eldest grandson of the emperor will be thirteen. Isn’t it possible to negotiate a marriage? The choice of the concubine must be called by your majesty. However, the concubine side’s words …… The princess asked his wife privately.”
Sinking Lan said: “What does mother think?”
“Madam is a bit hesitant.” Shen Gui said, “The eldest grandson of the emperor is the prince’s concubine’s parent and child. He has always been filial and very close to his aunt. If our lady enters the East Palace, she will be treated kindly. But the old lady said, if we were at home The young lady will have nothing to do in the future, or there will only be a princess. Once she has a royal heir, she may be stirred into the muddy water again! This kind of intrigue will inevitably be mixed up, and it is inevitable to miss the prince. Concubine’s kindness.”
“But Madam is thinking, if you miss this time, Madam and others are okay. After a few years, I am afraid I will have a relationship with the royal family.”
Shen Qianlan said indifferently: “Even now, let’s just get closer to the East Palace, and the entire royal family, are we not serious monarchs? Abiding by the rules of monarchs and ministers, what are we talking about?”
Shen Gui coughed dryly: “Of course the elder son and you have nothing to worry about. After all, Madam is worried about other sons.”
There are five brothers in the Shen family, and there are three sons, the elder son is Shen Ronglan, the second son is Shen Pilan, and the fourth son is Shen Xunlan. The elder son who inherited the title was skillful and did not fall into the family style; the second son was rigorously trained since childhood, and Yunwen Yunwu was the most anticipated child of the family; however, it may be that the attention of male elders has fallen on these two for many years. On the child, the fourth son, Shen Xunlan, is not very reliable. Over the years, the bamboo sticks that hit him have broken several bundles, and he is still strong and has grown into a complete dude.
In three days or two, if one can’t help it, it will cause trouble, so that the old man of the Shen family threw people to the Zhuangzi two years earlier and ordered not to leave the Zhuangzi for half a step!
Although this action prevented the family from being dragged into the water by unscrupulous children and grandchildren in such a turbulent time, it also made Zhang, who was a mother-in-law, very distressed.
I want to send my daughter into the East Palace to be the concubine of the emperor’s eldest grandson, 80% of the plan is for the youngest son, so that when he is down in the future, anyhow, he can be touched by the emperor’s nephew.
“Now that the elders are here, my mother is worried that my eldest brother and I will not take good care of the younger brothers in the future?” Shen Xiaolan knew it well, and said, “Not to mention the fourth brother or our younger brother?”
“Of course the madam knows that the eldest son and you are both filial and filial.” Shen Guimang said, “The fourth son has always been a bit naughty, and the wife is also afraid that you two will always be too worried about tidying up for him in the future, and want to share your worries with you. ”
Shen Qianlan said indifferently: “This is not necessary. If our two brothers are bothered by the fourth brother, would the cousin Huang Zhangsun spoil the fourth brother even more? My brother should still support himself, but the fourth brother The temper is really going to be grind, after all, even if a royal child does something wrong, he will still be punished.”
Shen Guilian claimed that it was, and said, “The Fourth Young Master was ordered by the old man to spend the past two years in Zhuangzi, but he has been a lot quieter. Presumably, the impetuosity in the son has gone a lot.”
“Grandfather is old, father is busy, mother’s heart is too soft, the fourth brother has time to let eldest brother watch more.” Shen Xiaolan said, “he is still a little afraid of elder brother, let eldest brother be more reasonable with him. Maybe I can still screw it over.”
Although his elder brother Shen Ronglan has a seemingly gentle name, he is actually quite hot-tempered, just the kind of disagreement. It’s the same outside, and it’s the same at home.
Shen Qilan has always been respectful to his elder brother because of his childhood training, and he has acted carefully.
Shen Xunlan was stubborn and coquettish since he was a child, which made Shen Ronglan uncomfortable. Even if Zhang was stopped by him, he was often beaten. The kid who beat him had a shadow on Shen Ronglan. He was trembling when he saw this big brother.
Therefore, after Shen Xunlan went to Zhuangzi, Zhang never let Shen Ronglan visit, for fear that this son would be uneasy on Zhuangzi, and be beaten to death by the elder son.
At this moment, Shen Gui hesitated: “The son has already started to assist Lord Hou, and he is usually very busy.”
“No matter how busy you are, how come you don’t have time to visit your own brother?” Shen Qianlan looked at him and said calmly, “This is also my brother who bothered to think about it. If he changed outsiders, who should be patient? Look at Ajing, then He still grew up with me. When he acted ridiculously, he persuaded him, but he really refused to listen, and he wouldn’t talk about trying to stop him… at best, stay away, lest he be dragged down.”
Shen Gui thought for a while to understand, bowed his head and said, “The second son said that the old slave will report to his wife when he returns.”
Since these four sons can’t count on their two brothers to be disciplined in the future, how can they stop the elder son from visiting?
It is important to know that if you meet three quarters, even if your direct brothers do not meet each other, it is inevitable that you will be alienated.
Looking back, when the elders are gone, how much compassion can there be for the younger brother?
“How is the marriage of the other brothers and sisters?” Shen Pilan let out an “um” and asked about the other brothers and sisters.
The Shen family is now considered to be thriving, and after greetings one by one, the sky will dawn.
At this time, the rule is to worship the ancestors on New Year’s Eve until the first day of the new year. If you don’t leave relatives, you will come to visit your house from the second day of the second.
However, Xi Fuwei stayed before and after staying with Shen Qilan, and in the middle of the morning, she came to pay a New Year’s greeting in advance.
By the way, I talked about going to Yukedi’s house on the second day of the second year.
Shen Pilan received her gift and sealed a pair of gold collars. He said, “There are a lot of pastries in the kitchen. You don’t need to buy them outside when you go. The shops are almost closed and there is probably nothing to sell. Yes, just pick some from there.”
Xi Fuwei thanked him, said some auspicious words and quit.
When she came to pay the New Year’s greetings, she went to plain clothes and changed into a new and brighter dress. She also applied some cream powder to line the snowy scenery outside, which was very delicate and beautiful.
After the person left, Shen Gui couldn’t help but say: “This girl is really not bad in appearance, she has tolerance in every move, and she is not inferior to the ladies of Ying Tianfu.”
Shen Qilan smiled at this, “Many of the ladies of Yingtian Palace were promoted by their father and brothers from the dragon’s merits. They are only a few years away from their development? How can they develop their own temperament? He was only a squire, and his ancestors also had herding elders, and because of the small number of people, he was raised by his father as a son since childhood. He went to school with her elder brother Juren. Wencai was born as an old boy who failed to test. I’m afraid it’s still a bit more provocative, it’s naturally good.”
Shen Gui said: “Yes. But the identity of the woman at this time is closely related to her father and brother. This girl Xi is not born very high, her father and brother are gone, even if there is a nephew, it is a pity that there is some blessing in the end.”
That’s how it is said, but Shen Qianlan knows that this is because he praised Xi Fuwei, reminding himself that no matter how good Xi Fuwei is, the identity is here, at most Donna is a concubine Ji, it is impossible to officially marry him.
As for the rules stipulated by the state, the imperial court ordering officer can not accept Liang’s family as a concubine… Anyway, Xi Fuwei is not using her original identity, even if it is, it is very convenient to do this kind of thing.
It’s just talking on the scene.
“How can it be possible to rely on a man alone?” Shen Qianlan smiled and said calmly, “I have my own measures.”
Shen Gui was not wordy, copying his hand and said, “The slave and maidservant are talking too much, the second son never needs to worry about it.”
Just as he said this sentence, someone outside came in dressed in snowflakes with a letter in his hand: “Second Young Master, it is urgent from Tianfu.”
