Shen Rui waited outside the prefect's yamen for less than a quarter of an hour before seeing Wang Shouren and Zhang Yong walking out. Although he had known from Wuyan that Wang Shouren was not injured, he was worried. Seeing Wang Shouren come out, Shen Rui looked carefully.
After a few glances, I really felt relieved.
When Zhang Yong saw Shen Rui like this, he felt sour in his heart and snorted softly.
Wang Shouren looked at Shen Rui and frowned and said, "Why do you describe it like this? Is this all night?"
Shen Rui said embarrassedly: "Auntie fainted, Qi's second brother is sick, Quan San brother went to Jinling, but no one came out to Uncle Zhang Luohong's funeral..."
Wang Shouren knew the origin of Shen Rui and the fifth house of the Shen family. He scolded him for not caring about taking care of himself, but also knew that he had been taken care of by the five houses over the years. This was not the time to watch, so he said, "If you do your best to help, you must be able to do your best."
OK, otherwise if you get tired, it will be uneasy for the elders."
After all, the funeral is different. After working hard, there is no peace day and night. Shen Rui is the heir of the second wife of the Shen family. He has a widowed mother, a sick uncle needs filial piety, and a young cousin below, and he also needs to support the door.
Shen Rui hurriedly said, "Teacher, don't worry, Brother Jin is there, I just talked and stared at me more so that I won't make any mistakes. When Brother Quan San comes back in two days, I will naturally be gone.
What's up."
Wang Shouren's expression was slower. Knowing that Shen Rui had prepared a carriage, he did not ask anyone to arrange the carriage. He greeted Zhang Yong. Shen Rui got on the carriage and went to the fifth room of the Shen family.
Today is the day after Shen Hong's death, not the day of the great sacrifice. However, Wang Shouren's identity is not only Shen Rui's army, but also an imperial envoy from the capital. Even though Shen Jin is now an official, he is a junior, and it is a bit disrespectful to treat customers by himself.
Just after Shen Rui left, he sent someone to the Zongfang and Shen Li's house to deliver letters, asking the clan leader and Shen Li to come to entertain guests.
Unexpectedly, the Grand Master of Jiufang came out with a crutch and happened to meet Shen Hai. He knew that the imperial envoy was going to the fifth room to celebrate the filial piety, so he insisted on following him. After all, he was a grown-up spirit. When he saw Shen Li again, the Grand Master of Jiufang was not yesterday.
He was both pulling and stimulating, and only held the airs of an elder, neither warm nor unfamiliar, as if he had left the previous thing he asked for forgiveness behind his head and didn't remember it.
Shen Li would not forgive the events of the Ninth House Master in his early years, but he had no intention of pursuing the old man who was silly to the end. He was just treating ordinary people. However, the little brother who accompanied the Ninth House Master over looked at the patriarch's politeness to Shen Li.
I was very envious and looked at Li Shen a little closer but didn't dare to.
When Shen Rui, Wang Shouren and Zhang Yong came over, the middle door opened wide.
Wang Shouren had a personal relationship with the Shen family and came to worship only in the name of Shen Rui's army; but Zhang Yong was an insult minister around the emperor, so it was not good to pretend to be the manager of the Wang family like he did yesterday. Wang Shouren told the people of the Shen family Zhang.
Yong's identity and grade, everyone in the Shen family is busy and polite to greet him.
Songjiang is thousands of miles away from the capital, but the Shen family is not completely unfamiliar with the inner ministers. Not to mention other places, there are several yamen commanded by the inner officials in Jiangsu. They occasionally go to Songjiang for inspection, but their grades are not comparable to their identity.
Zhang Yong. In addition to Shen Li and Shen Rui, even Shen Jin was restrained, not to mention Shen Hai and the Great Master of Jiufang. If you know that the imperial envoy came here, they still had the desire to flatter and flatter;
It was said that it was the eunuch in the palace, and both of them held their breath and wanted to disappear immediately.
The eunuch may not be scary, but behind the eunuch there are Jinyiwei and the East Factory and West Factory. They are all people who can stop children from crying at night.
Chen Li was a bachelor's student. He walked in front of the imperial court and was ordered to teach books to the East Palace. He was not unfamiliar with Zhang Yong. After meeting Wang Shouren, Chen Li politely greeted Zhang Yong.
Shen Rui represents the conspiracy to welcome guests, and there is no intention of scattering the guests. However, Shen Rui is young and can represent the five-bedroom guest in front of the Shen family. However, teenagers are not good at standing in front of outsiders in front of the outsiders; Chen Hai, the clan leader who was supposed to come forward to entertain foreign guests, had a rift with the fifth room and was not confident enough. In addition, he was afraid of Zhang Yong's identity, so he never stepped forward. As for the great master of the Ninth room, the so-called elders and young people are just facing the same clan. The younger generation is arrogant and dare not say a word in front of the imperial envoy and the insular minister. They are a taciturn clan elder in a regular manner.
When the little brother of the Nine Room saw the scene in front of him, he didn't know the reason. He only thought that Chen Li was the top scholar and had a high grade, so he could talk to the imperial envoy. He knew that his homework was not good, and he was not reading materials. He secretly looked at Chen Li, and Chen Jin was inevitable. Some other thoughts arise. Not to mention others, the dead uncle Ling, or the second uncle who followed the grandfather of the second house clan, became a prison student, and married the lady from the county magistrate's family. If he hadn't lived a bad life, he would not have survived this disaster. , I can't say that I can't say that I don't want to donate a small official under the protection of the second house in the future.
Thinking of this, the little brother of the nine-room flickered his eyes and looked at Chen Li. Chen Jin's back was so hot. Should he choose to curry favor with his cousin who had a grudge with his family, or choose to curry favor with his fourth-room clan uncle? For a moment, he was a teenager. The boy frowned and fell into trouble.
Since Wang Shouren and Zhang Yong came to worship Chen Hong, after the greetings, they naturally followed Chen Li to the mourning hall to burn incense.
Chen Hong Mourning Hall, Chen Qi was already kneeling beside him.
Like all kinds of trivial things that are in charge of funeral affairs, Shen Rui and Chen Jin can serve as a substitute for the five-bedroom brothers, but they can wear mourning and return the gifts, but only children and grandchildren can do it.
Shen Rui asked someone to prepare a carriage to go to the prefect's office, and once asked someone to go to Chen Qi to notify Chen Qi.
Chen Qi is a good young juren, now he is disabled and lost his father. Wang Shouren has a little more disgusted with Zhao Xianzhong, and he hates Ning Wang, the culprit behind the scenes.
Chen Qi knew Wang Shouren and saw him in the hall yesterday, but he met Zhang Yongmo.
After listening to Wang Shouren's introduction, Chen Qi's breathing became rapid immediately after hearing that he was a big eunuch from the palace. It was not that he was willing to flatter the inner officials, but that he had suffered so much these days that he had no news after being kidnapped by the kidnappers. The wife and children are also worried that they will make their parents sad due to their own reasons or implicate their brothers and brothers' futures. If it weren't for the beautiful wife and weak sons who had no support except him, they would have died long ago and would not have survived until now. The Shen family Two months after the accident, the Jiang family was in Hangzhou and did not send anyone to ask. Most of the time, they were afraid of being implicated, so they even gave up their niece.
I was lucky enough to wait for one day after I was released from prison, but I didn't have time to arrange someone to find my wife and children, which made my father run thousands of miles away. My weak body could not bear it, so I passed away.
Chen Qi was ashamed and regretful, but the case was not resolved for a day, and his worries doubled, for fear of implicating his father and his life and causing other relatives to be implicated. Even if the imperial envoy knew Wang Shouren, Chen Qi did not dare to go through the past few months of ups and downs. If you have any hope, it’s good to just wait for the trial and not drag down Shen Rui as well.
Hundreds of casualties in the military and civilians in Songjiang were not fake, but before something happened in Songjiang, I did give tens of thousands of taels of silver to the bandits. If the two gangs thought they were the same, then the money they took was really a reward for the enemy. Where else Can it be said to be innocent?
At present, Wang Shouren, who knows that Zhao Xianzhong is "tortured and forced confession" and "skept against the Shen family" is not only a matter of interest in the Shen family, but also a private official around the emperor. This shows that the situation in Songjiang will go directly to the imperial front, not It will give people a chance to use this to attack other people in the Shen family.
After a moment of excitement, Chen Qi tilted his body and fainted.
Everyone was startled, and Shen Rui hurriedly asked someone to go to the guest room to invite Doctor Zhang over.
The Imperial Doctor Zhang was commissioned by the second wife of the Shen family and went south with Chen Li and his party to take care of Chen Hong's body with Dr. Liu, who was invited by the fifth wife, later, Chen Hong and his wife got off the boat in Tianjin. When Dr. Liu saw that Dr. Zhang was there, he was unwilling to show off his skills, so he He said goodbye to Chen Hong and his wife and returned to the capital; Doctor Zhang was entrusted by someone to be loyal to others, and he accompanied Chen Hong and his wife south again.
Chen Hong died of illness, and was also caused by his weakness and old illness. Doctor Zhang came back without taking anyone. He was uncomfortable. He wanted to return to the capital, but was repeatedly persuaded by Shen Rui to stay for the time being and take care of him. Both Guo and his son were ill.
After Doctor Zhang saw Chen Qi, hesitated for a moment and frowned and said, "The Second Master Qi is not serious, but he can't stand the mental agitation and fell into a coma. He said a wordless thing, and the Second Master Qi is under him. If your body and mental damage are severe, you should not be too happy or sad, but should focus on resting."
Filial piety is the first priority for all virtues. Even if you are worried about Chen Qi's health, Doctor Zhang can only point out indirectly, and it is difficult to say something like Chen Qi's health cannot keep his soul, otherwise it would be like instigating Chen Qi to be unfilial.
Shen Rui frowned when he heard this. It was not his dogma, he had to let Chen Qi keep his spirits. It was because Chen Qi was not in a good state of mind because Chen Hong felt too guilty about his death. If he didn't let him come out to keep his spirits out, he might have to feel sick. Come on. In addition, the five families are mourning, and there are no descendants. Apart from Shen Rui and Chen Jin who are helping to arrange, they are all relatives of other clans. Even if they have all monks and Taoists, it is difficult to hide the deserted family. Chen Qi is the only one next to Chen Hong Parents and children cannot really rest with peace of mind if they do not solve the problem of filial sons.
Chen Jin sighed in a low voice: "I wish Brother Quan San could come back soon."
The person who sent to the capital to report his demise and the person who went to Nanjing to find Chen Quan. After all, Nanjing is a bit far away from Songjiang. Even if Chen Quan gets the news and returns, it would be nice to be able to come back before the "first seventh". Chen Qi's It looks like I can't hold on for seven days.
There is a priority and Chen Qi's heart disease can be cured slowly, but his body must be patient first. Thinking of this, Shen Rui made a decision in his heart and said to Doctor Zhang: "I'll ask Doctor Zhang to take a look at the prescription again and add one or two appropriately The herbs, let Brother Qi rest for a few days first, nourish his spirit and then guard his spirit."
The Imperial Doctor Zhang was commissioned by the second wife of the Shen family to come to Songjiang, but now the Shen family is headed by the leader, and the two top scholars of Da Chen and Xiao Shen are there. Shen Rui ordered that he add sleeping medicinal materials to the medicine soup, and this... it is appropriate. Is it?
Doctor Zhang was still hesitating, Chen Li nodded and said, "It is my parents who take care of my body and hair. Taking care of myself is the greatest filial piety. Rui Ge'er suggested that, please trouble Doctor Zhang to modify a prescription."
Chen Hai was listening, frowning and clamping the flies to death, thinking that this was really unreasonable. Where did I die and my son still have a rest? Since ancient times, filial sons have died because not one or two people have died like this. Gold is precious.
At this moment, Shen Rui and Doctor Zhang have already sent Chen Qi back to the inner courtyard. Chen Li temporarily took over the identity of the master and invited Wang Shouren and Zhang Yong to the side hall to use tea. The Master Jiufang was not sure whether he was afraid of the power of the official or unwilling to do so. Seeing Chen Li, he had to be proud, so he found a Youzi to take his little brother back. Chen Hai claimed to be the leader of the Shen clan and did not want to leave in shame, so he followed him into the living room.
After Chen Li asked about the movements of the prefect's office last night, he learned that Juren Yan encouraged the bandits to attack the magistrate's office last night's news, and it was just a farce. The bandits and Juren Yan had been arrested, and Chen Hai couldn't help but steal it secretly. happiness.
The more troubled Juren Yan is, the better. When King Ning is out, the "Songjiang Bandits" incident will be gone...
