Vicious Male Partner is a Girl - Chapter 35

When Shen Fengzhang called out the word “Your Majesty”, the middle-aged attendant standing behind the current Supreme Master immediately turned serious, and the rest of the guards also took a step forward at the same time, with their hands on the saber at their waist, and their eyes were vigilant and cold.

Today’s Supreme waved his hand, motioning for everyone to back down.

He looked at Shen Fengzhang with a smile on his face, his expression unchanged, with a look of surprise on his face, “So you recognized Gu a long time ago?”

Shen Fengzhang got up, left his seat, bowed down to the current Supreme Being, and said in his mouth: “Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I was with my grandfather when I was young, and I was lucky enough to see the sky. Many years have passed, Your Majesty still has the same demeanor and heroism. Back then, I recognized His Majesty as soon as I went upstairs. Just now I didn’t meet and salute in time, I ask Your Majesty to forgive me.”

It has been ten years since the old Duke Shen passed away, how could the current Supreme Master not have aged at all in these ten years. The middle-aged attendant standing behind the current Supreme One glanced at the little county prince and decided that she would not be able to please the current Supreme One.

Unexpectedly, the Supreme Being laughed loudly when he heard the words.

For a person like Shen Fengzhang with a handsome appearance and noble temperament, even if he speaks flattery, it still seems to be true.

“It’s just a trivial matter. I won’t blame you, please take a seat.” With a smile on his face, the present Supreme Being waved at Shen Fengzhang, letting her take a seat.

After Shen Fengzhang took his seat, he smiled lightly at the current Supreme Master, and picked up the topic just now, “Your Majesty, if this question in Baiwenlou is asked to answer by this minister, the answer of this minister is—”

She dipped her fingertips in the tea, and wrote two words on the table—internal worries!

The smile on the face of today’s supreme being who saw these two words clearly disappeared, and he stared at Shen Fengzhang with a solemn expression.

In the eyes of today’s supreme being full of coercion, Shen Fengzhang looked indifferent and talked freely.

“It is true that Suolu in the north is the disaster of the Great Zhou, but you must first settle down if you want to fight against the outside world. Now there are also hidden dangers in the Great Zhou. The family in the previous dynasty was powerful, and it was said that “the king and the horse share the world”. Your Majesty used to suppress the family. However, after so many years, the forces of the humble family have formed a clique for selfish interests and formed a separate faction, and the momentum of fighting against the aristocratic family has gradually eased. Your Majesty’s previous actions have turned into breeding tigers.”

As Shen Fengzhang narrated the current situation in the court little by little, the current Supreme Master looked solemn, and his eyes looking at Shen Fengzhang became deeper and deeper.

“Nowadays, the aristocratic family and the poor family are stalemate. If you want to break this situation and truly take over the power, Your Majesty—” Shen Fengzhang took the initiative to look deeply into the eyes of the current Supreme, and paused every word, “What you need is a sharp knife.”

“A sharp knife that is not involved with any party and is completely held in your Majesty’s hands!” Shen Fengzhang’s gentle and gentle voice turned murderous at some point, as if the blade had been unsheathed. It is covered by coldness, sharpness, hardness and cruelty.

Shen Fengzhang got up and knelt down, clasped his hands together, bowed his head to his hands, and bowed to the present Supreme, “I am a humble minister, I am willing to do the work of a dog and a horse for Your Majesty, and become a sharp knife in His Majesty’s hands!”

The noise on the street seemed to come from a very distant place, and the second floor of the teahouse was silent for a while. The middle-aged waiter standing behind the current Supreme Lord looked down at the Shen family man, and then looked at the present Supreme Supreme calmly. The middle-aged servant who has served the present Supreme for more than 20 years can clearly see the emotion on the present Supreme’s face, this Lord of the Shen family has already entered the eyes of the present Supreme, and the future is boundless!

The eyes of today’s supreme being are as deep as water, staring at Shen Fengzhang who is kneeling on the ground, he is silent for a long time, and finally sighed, “The tiger father has no dogs.”

Whether it’s the old county prince or Shen Yi, they are all dragons and phoenixes among people. He previously thought that the Shen family gentleman was mediocre, but he did not expect to have such a great talent.

Things are lingering in his mind, and even the current supreme who loves playing backgammon no longer has the intention to continue. After letting Shen Fengzhang get up from the ground, he rubbed the dice in his palm, glanced at the endgame on the table, and took a long breath, “I’ll leave this chess to you first.”

The Supreme Being today got up, rubbed the dice in his palm, slowly put it back on the table, and said hesitantly at the same time: “I will think about what you said just now.”

What Shen Fengzhang said just now hit his mind every sentence. In the few years when he first came to the throne, he really had great ambitions. He wanted to conquer the captives in the north and recover the lost land. However, after three defeats and countless casualties, he no longer had the heart to send troops to the northern expedition. In recent years, compared with the Suolu people north of the Huai River, he is more worried about the internal worries of the Great Zhou, which is what Shen Fengzhang said about the two factions of the aristocratic family and the poor family each occupying half of the court and fighting for power.

Over the years, he has been devoting himself to balancing the power of the two sides, trying to make the two sides check and balance each other. However, in the past two years, he has found more and more that if it continues, the imperial power will only fall further and further. If this continues, how will he meet his ancestors after a hundred years.

Shen Fengzhang’s sharp knife theory instantly broke through the fog and found a new path for him.

Nanyang asked him to investigate Shen Fengzhang earlier, but he did not expect to meet Mr. Shen’s family here by chance. When playing chess with Shen Fengzhang, he really liked this young gentleman of the Shen family. She even wanted to give Nanyang and the Lord of the Shen family a marriage order when he returned to the palace. Shen Fengzhang’s aptitude is mediocre, and it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t have the talent to be an official. When the time comes, he will make Shen Fengzhang a rich and idle official, so that she can often come to the palace to play backgammon with him.

However, looking at it now, with Shen Fengzhang’s vision and intelligence, it’s really a bit of a humiliation for her to be an idle son-in-law.

Shen Fengzhang wants to make a knife, but is she really suitable for this knife?

Thoughts were in the mind of the Supreme Being today, he was thinking about this question, and walked out with his attendants and guards under the respectful **** of Shen Fengzhang.

After the Supreme Master left today, Shen Fengzhang withdrew his bow and stood quietly for a while. After the tense heartstrings gradually relaxed, he turned around and told Liu Wenchang to put away the chess game, “be careful not to mess up the endgame.” Just in case, she put away the chess in Liu Wenchang Before that, he took a closer look at the endgame.

Liu Wenchang put away the chessboard, took the three hundred gold and the jade pendant left on the table, and followed Shen Fengzhang downstairs.

“Master Lang, Your Majesty gave this pair of backgammon to you, Mr. Lang, obviously he appreciates you very much.” Liu Wenchang was very happy for Mr. Lang.

Shen Fengzhang shook his head, “It’s not sending. It’s staying.”

“Is there any difference?” Liu Wenchang didn’t understand what the Lord Lang meant.

Shen Fengzhang smiled without saying a word. When today’s Supreme just left, she could see that he was a little tempted by her proposal, and now he was just considering the real implementation candidates and operability. Today’s supreme let her keep the unfinished endgame board, which means that he is likely to come to her to finish the game. At that time, if it goes well, she will have a detached position in the court and become a sharp knife in the hands of today’s supreme. If it doesn’t go well, she will have another official position to compensate.

Sitting on the bullock cart, he drove all the way to the county government. Shen Fengzhang looked at the chessboard in front of him, carefully recalling what happened in Huizhen Building just now, and after realizing that there were no mistakes in her performance during the whole process, she finally let out a breath slowly, her pure black eyes brightened. to amazing.

She finally seized the opportunity that was briefly mentioned in the original book!

In fact, Shen Fengzhang doesn’t necessarily want to be the sharp blade in the hands of the current Supreme Being, but only loyal to the current Supreme Being. He is the enemy of both the aristocratic family and the poor family, and stirs up the whole court!

She has planned several paths for herself. If she enters the imperial court as an official according to the Ninth Grade Zhongzheng Law, she will get closer to the family; if Yu Sizhong and other high-ranking officials representing the power of the poor family are willing to give her a hand, she will of course join the camp of the poor family. .

However, one and a half years after the next Chung Cheng assessment, the humble faction is waiting for the price again, sitting on the sidelines.

Forced to helplessness, she could only choose the most dangerous and quickest effective path for herself.

Now it depends on whether His Majesty is willing to use her.

On the other side, the current supreme being who has just returned to the palace is also thinking about this issue.

Just at this time, the attendant came in and reported: “Your Majesty, Princess Nanyang is asking to see you.”

Now Supreme has already guessed the purpose of Princess Nanyang’s visit, he felt a little headache, but still nodded and said: “Let Nanyang come in.”

Princess Nanyang, dressed in a silver-red dress, walked quickly, and after paying her respects, she immediately raised her eyes to look at the Supreme Being, with a slightly anxious face on her face, “Royal Father, send someone to investigate how Mr. Shen’s investigation is going. Already? When do you plan to marry Erchen to the Lord of the Shen family?”

Listening to Nanyang’s urging, the current Supreme Master felt quite helpless, “Gu has already met Shen Fengzhang today.”

“How?!” Princess Nanyang immediately showed joy and excitement on her face, she was extremely happy, “Father, can you marry me for your son?!” Princess Nanyang has great confidence in Shen Fengzhang. It seems that Shen Fengzhang is good at everything, good status, good looks, most of the time his temperament is gentle and polite, sometimes he is a bit arrogant, but that is not a big problem. She wouldn’t like it if she was so temperless as a noodle maker.

Shen Fengzhang is very suitable in all aspects, as long as the father sees her, he will definitely be able to marry her and Shen Fengzhang.

Today’s Supreme looked at Nanyang’s expectant eyes, feeling a little embarrassed in his heart. He hesitated for a while, then shook his head, “Nanyang, we can discuss this matter later.”

“Father! You promised my son!” Nanyang became anxious immediately, his brows were tightly frowned, and his face was full of irritability.

“Okay, okay. Let’s talk about this later.” The Supreme Being is really afraid that Nanyang will make trouble again, and the people in the court ordered: “Come here! Send Nanyang Princess back!”

Looking at the back of Nanyang who was unhappy and reluctant to leave, the present Supreme Master sighed. Nanyang, it’s not that the emperor doesn’t want to give you a marriage, it’s that Shen Fengzhang’s situation is beyond his expectation. He still has to think about giving a marriage.

The middle-aged man who was serving the Supreme Being seemed to be agitated by Princess Nanyang’s marriage, so he carefully opened his mouth to divert the thought of the Supreme Being, “Your Majesty, the leader of the Baiwenlou Wenhui today, what do you plan to arrange?”

The leader of the literary society?

Today’s supreme being was reminded by his servant, and found that because of Shen Fengzhang’s sharp strategy, he almost forgot this year’s Wenhui leader. He suddenly remembered that the leader of this year’s literary society was also surnamed Shen, and now the Supreme One had a change of heart, could it be that he is also a descendant of Duke Zhongwu?

Asked this question to the servant, the present Supreme Master really got an answer from the Shen family.

Don’t look at the fact that the leader of the literary society every year has a great reputation among the people, but in today’s supreme place, he is just a small role. It can be seen from the fact that he would rather go to Huizhenlou to gamble on Shuanglu than to go to Baiwenlou to watch the Wenhui. However, knowing that this year’s leader is also a descendant of the old Duke Shen, the current Supreme Master immediately became a little interested.

Just when he was about to ask the servant how the leader of this year’s literary society performed in the literary society, he suddenly remembered something.

“Gu remembers that Linru will go to watch the Baiwenlou Wenhui every year, and tell Linru to come over, and ask her to talk to Gu, how is this man named Shen Jun?” Good at fighting, galloping on the battlefield, unexpectedly there will be such a heir who is well-educated and talented.

Princess Linru is another princess who is supreme today. Unlike Princess Nanyang, who has a fiery temperament, Princess Linru has a gentle and quiet temperament, likes to read poetry and books, and is not weak in literature. She goes to watch the literary fair in Baiwenlou every year, and this year is no exception.

However, the palace servants who went to Princess Linru’s palace did not bring Princess Linru.

When the Supreme One asked, he found out that Princess Linru was still outside the palace and hadn’t come back.

The current Supreme Master shook his head helplessly, so he had no choice but to ask the servant about Shen Jun’s performance at today’s literary meeting. The servant went to the Huizhen Building with the current Supreme Master, and didn’t know much about Wenhui. He recalled the situation reported by the guards just now, and began to report to His Majesty.

In the palace, not only the current supreme person is paying attention to today’s leader of the literary society. Another person is also concerned about the situation of the Wenhui. This person is Concubine Yin.

In Concubine Yin’s palace, Concubine Yin is combing her hair. She has thick, smooth and extremely beautiful black hair, and when she has nothing to do, she likes to comb her hair herself.

When she heard the attendant report that the head of this year’s literary society was Shen Juan, the son of the Shen family, she suddenly paused in the hand holding the ivory comb.

After waving to the attendants and letting them back, she grabbed a handful of black and shiny hair, combed it slowly around her chest, and spoke as if talking to herself while combing her hair.

“Why is Shen Jun’s life so important?” Since discovering Shen Jun’s identity, she has sent no less than five groups of people one after another, but none of them took Shen Jun’s life away. ringleader.

If you take the leader, you can enter the court as an official, and if you enter the court as an official, it is possible to meet the current supreme. Thinking of this, Ms. Liu couldn’t help but said: “Madam, once Shen Juan and the present Supreme Master meet, things will be troublesome in the future.”

Concubine Yin gently brushed her hair leisurely, with a smile on her charming face, “Then let him not meet His Majesty.”

If Shen Juan can only be a lowly official, how can he meet His Majesty? She believed that before he climbed up to the seat where he could see Tianyan, he had already died at the hands of the people she sent.

When Concubine Yin said this, she seemed not to care much about Shen Juan, but in fact she sent someone to contact the servant next to the Supreme Being today. Accompanied by the current supreme being for so many years, Concubine Yin understands his temperament better than herself. Today’s supreme cares about old love very much, and is a man of love. Not long after he came to the throne, he got rid of the powerful officials in the court, Xie Xian, and Xie Xian’s tribe. If she hadn’t pushed behind him, the Supreme Being would not have been able to kill Empress Xie.

His Majesty, who was already hesitant, regretted it not long after seeing Empress Xie take her only son to such a tragic death. If it weren’t for this, she wouldn’t have been unable to ascend to the next position after all these years!

If the current Supreme Knows that the child did not die back then, he will only be happy, and will not blame Empress Xie for committing the crime of deceiving the emperor!

At that time, it will be difficult to get rid of this child!

The servant most trusted by the Supreme Being today is Cai Jin, the Zhongchang Attendant who goes out with him during the day. However, Cai Jin is loyal to the Supreme Being today. Help Concubine Yin with affairs.

Concubine Yin has nothing to do with him, for the sake of the current Supreme, she is also kind to Cai Jin, but secretly bribes other servants around the Supreme, and quietly wants to replace Cai Jin with this person.

Over the past few years, although this servant named Cao Rang has not replaced Cai Jin, the regular attendant, in the current Supreme Being’s heart, he is quite trusted by the Supreme Being.

Concubine Yin used a trick to temporarily transfer Cai Jin away from His Majesty. Cao Rang, who came up to serve, waited in the hall for a long time, and finally waited until His Majesty began to prepare an imperial edict for the leader of the Wenhui to bestow officials.

Just when Cao Rang was thinking about how to accomplish the mission of Concubine Yin, the current supreme happened to be hesitant to give Shen Jun any official position. He trusts Cai Jin very much on weekdays, and he will tell Cai Jin about any matters that are difficult to decide for a while.

Cai Jin has a tight mouth and a rigorous temperament. In the past, he would not interrupt after listening to it, and would only comfort the Supreme with good words according to the troubles of the Supreme today, so that his mood is not so bad.

Tonight, when the Supreme Being encountered something, his first reaction was to tell Cai Jin, but after he finished speaking, he remembered that Cai Jin went to help Concubine Yin, and Cao Rang was serving in the palace now. He wanted to say nothing, but he heard Cao Rang speak cautiously.

“Your Majesty, I think that maybe Shen Langjun can be granted a lower official position first.”

Today’s Supreme is not a violent person, and his servants are generous. He was not angry when he heard Cao Rang’s words, but looked at Cao Rang curiously, “Why?”

Cao Rang weighed his words, lowered his head, and said cautiously: “I heard that Mr. Shen is still young, young people are often full of vigor, not tactful in dealing with things, and easy to offend people. The lower the official position, the slave thinks it is more acceptable Shen Lang-jun has experienced well. In the palace, after the young servants are selected, they often have to do rough work for two or three years before they can be arranged elsewhere.”

Today’s supreme frowned slightly, thinking about what Cao Rang said just now.

“Full of vigor, not tactful in dealing with things, easy to offend people.”

After a long while, the Supreme Being seemed to have made a difficult decision, and sighed, “Okay, then let Shen Juan make an imperial invitation.”

He looked at Cao Rang who bowed his head, and smiled generously, “Cao Rang, you have spoken well this time. You can also say what you think next time.”

Cai Jin is good everywhere, but he is too cautious and rigorous, never willing to express his views, and unwilling to say a word.

“It’s His Majesty’s sage!” Cao Rang lowered his head, not showing it on his face, and was extremely surprised in his heart. Never expected that the task arranged by Concubine Yin Gui could be completed so easily! After completing Yin Guifei’s task, he dared not say any more. Cao Rang, who retreated to the side again, did not realize that the current supreme not only wrote the imperial decree of the leader of the literary society, but also wrote another imperial decree.

Cao Rang didn’t know at all, he had just said a few words, and the mistake prompted the present Supreme to make the next decision-to let Shen Fengzhang be the knife in his hand! It is not because of Cao Rang’s hint that today’s supreme ruler is determined to grant Shen Jun an imperial invitation.

He was hesitant at first, because he was afraid that Shen Fengzhang was too young and incapable, but also because he knew that if he became his knife against the aristocratic and poor families, Shen Fengzhang would be in a very bad situation in the future. For the sake of Duke Zhongwu, he couldn’t bear it.

However, after thinking about it again and again, he found that in terms of candidates, there was no one more suitable than Shen Fengzhang. Cai Jin handed over all the information he found to him just now, Shen Fengzhang is at odds with the aristocratic family, and is out of tune with the poor family. He has a title, but is not accepted by the two factions, such a candidate is just right.

Moreover, she was the one who came up with this sharp plan, so she must know the consequences. Under such circumstances, she dared to take the initiative to invite Ying, and she must have been prepared.

The last point of hesitation of today’s supreme being – Shen Fengzhang is too young, I am afraid that he is not capable enough, and Cao Rang dismissed it with a few words. She was able to come up with such a method, so there shouldn’t be a big problem with her ability, and she is too young, full of vigor, not smooth enough, and easy to offend people, so she is just suitable for this knife.

However, since he has decided to promote Shen Fengzhang to muddy the situation, there can be no one more person to steal Shen Fengzhang’s limelight. Naturally, Shen Jun, who is brother with Shen Fengzhang, can only be wronged.

Putting down his pen, the present Supreme One read the imperial decree from beginning to end, and let out a breath of foul air slowly.

Let someone make an order tomorrow!
