Shen Mingshu knew that grievances could not solve the problem. As Grandma Kong said, Cui Tingting was an official lady with an innocent identity. Apart from the difference in status between the two of them, as long as the other party did not make mistakes, she could not control her.
But she just felt aggrieved and didn't want her to enter the house like this!
At the beginning, she took out her heart and soul to protect her, but she took advantage of him and stole her husband! The feeling of betrayal made her as sick and uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly.
Now, instead of comforting her, her husband also spoke for her, making her even more aggrieved and uncomfortable.
"The courtyard was arranged by the king at his command, and the servants were sent by the housekeeper by the king. The marriage certificate and betrothal gift were sent to Cui Mansion by the housekeeper of your Prime Minister's Mansion in person. The princess felt that this cup of tea was aggrieved. ?"
The cold words one after another made Shen Mingshu feel cold all over and made her stand unsteady.
Shen Cong is the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion, why would he send a betrothal gift for him? Doesn't his father consider her feelings? Why didn't he even tell her!
Alian supported her and persuaded her in a low voice: "Princess, the servants in the whole courtyard are watching. Your Highness will give you the steps. Just follow them down quickly. If you fall out with His Highness at this time, you will have no prestige in the palace in the future." Got it!"
Shen Mingshu looked at Cui Tingting bitterly, and with Alian's support, she entered the room and sat down on the main seat.
Seeing that she didn't make any more trouble, Zhou Yu followed her forward.
The servants made tea and served it.
Cui Tingting knelt down in front of Shen Mingshu, timidly called Princess, raised the tea cup and brought it to her.
Shen Mingshu felt a lump in her throat and didn't answer.
"Princess, please have some tea."
Cui Tingting said it again.
Seeing Zhou Yu's frown, Ah Lian hurriedly took the tea cup and handed it to Shen Mingshu.
Shen Mingshu turned away and took a sip, then pulled out a hairpin and threw it to her.
"Thank you, Princess, for the reward."
Cui Tingting stood up and stood aside. No one spoke anymore, but the atmosphere was not relaxed.
After a long time, Zhou Yu said: "Alian, send the princess back to rest. I will rest at Aunt Cui's place tonight."
He was irritated, and naturally he didn't want to face Shen Mingshu's cold face. Here was a fresh face with an expectant expression. Normal men knew how to choose.
"Your Highness!"
"Your Highness..."
Two completely different tones made Zhou Yu more determined. Shen Mingshu didn't get a reply, and she was angry and disappointed. She glared at Grandma Kong and strode away with others.
Cui Tingting's face was still injured, but the water in her eyes seemed to be overflowing, which made people feel distressed.
Zhou Yu gently touched her face with his fingers and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Cui Tingting lowered her head and pursed her lips.
"It doesn't hurt. The princess treats me like a sister. It was me who betrayed the princess first. As long as the princess can calm down, it won't hurt me."
"I feel wronged to you..."
Zhou Yu pulled her into his arms.
The servants exited the house.
…
"I hope His Highness Prince Yu will like this great gift from me!"
Shen Moran dropped a chess piece casually, and Si Yiluo and Chang Jinchan looked at each other and fisted her in unison.
"Sister-in-law, I really admire you. When it comes to house fighting, you are at the rooftop level, or the rooftop on Mount Tai. Who would have thought that this was your handiwork! No one would believe it if I spread the news!"
Use Cui Tingting to intensify the conflict between Zhou Yu and Shen Mingshu.
The ancients said that if one cultivates one's moral integrity and harmonizes one's family, one can govern the country and bring peace to the world. Zhou Yu did not cultivate one's personal integrity and his family was restless. How could he govern the country and bring peace to the world?
"No wonder you say you like to watch lively shows. It's a pity that you can't watch such lively shows! I won't be able to watch them after I leave the capital. Cousin, you should write to me often!"
Shen Moran agreed immediately.
"Send me the storybook you wrote."
Si Yiluo turned to look at Shen Moran.
"Are you still writing?"
Shen Moran coughed.
"This time it's a story about a female snitch and a poor magistrate working together to solve a case. It has nothing to do with you..."
Chang Jinchan exposed her unceremoniously.
"The domineering female thief with great kung fu and burglary, and the young talented young magistrate Qiongxian who has no strength to tie a chicken, please take a closer look, Mr. Si."
One is martial and one is literary, one is strong and the other is weak.
The combination of men and women in her stories is always so...different.
"up to you."
As long as King Zhan is not jealous, there is nothing wrong with her.
"I've delivered the gift. Let's have a glass of farewell wine. I won't go deliver it tomorrow."
Si Yiluo raised his glass and touched it with Chang Jinchan. He raised his face and drank the wine in the glass. He stood up and said, "It's time for me to say goodbye."
"Aluo, let me see you off..." Shen Moran walked out of the room side by side with her, "I have checked a lot of information and suspect that there is a treasure buried in the formation at the back of Jingshan Temple."
"When Taizu conquered the world, Shengjing City was burned to ashes by a fire. People naturally thought that the gold and silver treasures of the Liao Palace in the city were also buried in the fire."
"At that time, Jingshan Temple was just a small temple with less than ten monks. Later, Taizu was injured and was chased by the enemy. They hid Taizu in the temple and survived the disaster. Since then, the status of Jingshan Temple has increased. No one dares to take advantage of Jingshan Temple."
"Do you think they were protecting those treasures at that time?"
Her thoughts were racing, and Si Yiluo didn't know how she connected the previous fire with the current formation.
"There is another thing that makes me suspicious." Shen Moran said mysteriously when there was no one around, "Do you remember Xiao Yuanjin?"
In his previous life, Xiao Yuanjin also stayed in the capital as a hostage for a period of time. Later... he suddenly returned to Beiliao and quickly gathered his troops to go south.
Beiliao has been in chaos for a long time. Where did he get his strength?
Although her idea was wild and unconstrained, the connection was indeed suspicious. Si Yiluo took this matter to heart, walked out of Prince Zhan's Mansion, walked to the post house, and whistled into the darkness.
A figure came out of the back door, half-kneeling and saluting.
"Is there anything unusual about Xiao Poyun and Xiao Yuanjin during this time?"
"Sir, after your last warning, Princess Poyun has become much more honest recently. Prince Xiao has often participated in poetry gatherings held in the capital recently, and often invites some young men to go out to play in the city."
When the weather is good in spring, many dignitaries and elegant people go out to visit the city, and gatherings such as poetry and tea parties are often held outside the city.
As Xiao Yuanjin was a hostage of the Northern Liao Dynasty, the emperor did not restrict his freedom. There was nothing wrong with him attending these gatherings.
But what Shen Moran said just now made her wary.
"From now on, Prince Xiao will send someone to follow him when he goes out, record his daily words and deeds, and send them to me at the Yamen."
The black shadow responded yes.
Si Yiluo moved his fingers, then stood up and returned to the post house.
Back at home, Wei Heyan spread his hair on the edge of the bed and leaned against the bedside to read.
"Where have you been so late?"
Si Yiluo knew that he had a private army under his command, which would cost a lot of money, so he did not dare to tell him the news that there might be treasure in the mountains behind Jingshan Temple.
He just said: "Xiao Yuanjin has been relatively active in Beijing recently. I went over to check on the situation."
Wei He said he had no doubt that he was there and showed her the document approved by Emperor Yao.
"I proposed to the emperor that Li Wei be appointed as the governor of the two rivers and supervise the rivers. Is this considered accomplished?"
The Governor of the Two Rivers is a plum job. He is not only responsible for supervising the rivers, but also for the commercial transportation on the rivers. This year's transfer has not been finalized yet. I don't know how many people are watching this job. As soon as this transfer order comes out, people who are jealous of Li Wei will probably start from
There is a line from the palace entrance to the west city gate.
"Li Wei is a capable minister, capable and honest. Because I recommended Li Wei, the emperor agreed so smoothly. But if it were another person, this matter might not be possible."
Wei Heyan did not take any credit, and told her matter-of-factly, "Girl, are you satisfied?"
The two of them had made an agreement not to interfere in each other's court affairs, but now he made an exception for her.
Si Yiluo felt a little ashamed.
Wei Heyan, who could see her thoughts at a glance, raised his eyebrows and said, "So tonight, I should give you some reward!"
