Bi Tao brought some clothes and jewelry, and Shen Moran helped her put them on, then put a bun on her head and put on a lotus pattern hair crown made of gold wire.
The sapphire blue makes Si Yiluo's skin very white, and also makes her temperament very cold, but it is not cold and cold, but cold and glamorous.
The whole person exudes an aura that does not allow strangers to approach him.
Beautiful, but also depressing.
Shen Moran picked a dress that suited her best.
"This is the first time I see you wearing a skirt." Shen Moran looked at the person in the bronze mirror and praised, "Even if you go to court in this outfit, no one would dare to mess with you. You can't hide your aura."
"If you don't like makeup, I won't put makeup on you. Let's go."
Si Yiluo looked at herself in the mirror and felt that there was no difference. She was still her, and her personality would not change just because she changed her clothes.
Return to the back garden.
The whole courtyard was still silent.
A person jumped out of everyone's mind. Looking at the evil spirit lingering around her, they inexplicably felt like they were seeing Wei Heyan.
Si Yiluo didn't look sideways, walked to the upper hand position and sat down. There was no expression on his face, and he looked very intimidating.
Shen Moran sighed in his heart, it was really a waste of her good skin. She obviously looked like a fairy, but she wanted to be a Shura in hell.
"Master Si, let me introduce you." Shen Moran stepped forward to warm up, "This lady is Mr. Bo Ge's wife, the Ji family. She was born in the Ji family of Jinan Prefecture."
Mr. Ji is not young, looks very kind, has been in a high position for a long time, and has a calm demeanor.
Si Yiluo stood up and saluted with clasped fists. Ji just nodded and three girls behind her who were about the same age as Si Yiluo stood up and returned the salute.
"These three are my granddaughters. I heard that women can also be officials. They were very curious and kept pestering me to come and pay a visit to Mr. Si. Don't be offended, sir."
In his previous life, Si Yiluo handled cases ruthlessly and always had great etiquette.
"It is a great honor for Mr. Si to come here and make this humble house shine."
"This is Mr. Bao Ge's wife, Wan, from a famous family in Hedong."
"This is Mrs. Chen, the Minister of Industry and Commerce..."
After meeting the ladies with higher status one by one, the rest of the people came to see Si Yiluo on their own initiative.
The girl wore a skirt and couldn't sit as straight as usual, so she crossed her legs, leaned on the chair, and reached out to play with the tea stems in the tea cup.
It makes her look a bit lazy.
After a brief introduction, Si Yiluo did not show any impatience. The ladies and ladies became more courageous and began to find topics to chat with.
The ladies gather together to talk about home affairs. When the ladies gather together, some talk about poetry, some talk about clothes and jewelry, and some talk about looks and talents.
Si Yiluo sat there coldly, and she only answered one sentence after ten sentences from others. Most of the time, Shen Moran answered for her, so she took the time to echo.
So someone got jealous and pointed the finger at Shen Moran.
"I heard that Miss Shen made some mistakes a few days ago and was punished by the Prime Minister to go to the family temple. She came back so soon?"
Being able to argue with Shen Moran is certainly not a low-status person.
Si Yiluo looked up and saw a pretty girl.
The girl was wearing a persimmon-colored heavily embroidered gauze skirt. The hairpin on her head was inlaid with round pearls. Her earrings were also two identical milky-white pearls the size of her little finger. A red gold necklace hung around her neck. The long golden tassels are beautiful and rich.
Even if a beauty is jealous, she still looks very pleasing to the eye.
Si Yiluo's slightly irritable mood was somewhat comforted.
"This is..."
She only knew that the girl in front of her was from the old Boge mansion. Just now, Ji introduced her as her granddaughter, but did not introduce her name, which showed that she did not really think highly of her.
"My name is Bo Wanping. My father works as an editor in the Hanlin Academy. My grandfather is Mr. Bo Ge."
Although Bo Wanping looked down on her in his heart, he also admired her for being able to enter the court as an official as a woman.
Si Yiluo said, "Boge Lao has three sons. The eldest son is sent to work as a magistrate in Jingzhou Prefecture, the second son is a seventh-rank editor in the Hanlin Academy, and the third son is Zuo Shanshi in the Senglu Department of the Ministry of Rites, with a sixth-rank official title.
I think Bo Wanping was the concubine of the second room of Ge Lao Mansion.
Four members of the family were officials in the imperial court, and her father was in the Hanlin Academy. Although he was only a small editor, being admitted to the Hanlin Academy meant that his future was limitless. No wonder she dared to speak out and choke Shen Moran.
"Shen Moran, you are not favored in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so you came to Master Si's house to take charge of the family. I will expose your true colors today and let Master Si see clearly."
"Master Si, she has never taken care of the house at all. Don't be deceived by her!"
Shen Moran looked at her funny, her hand holding the tea cup motionless.
She almost forgot that she and Bo Wanping were not getting along. Bo Wanping had always been jealous of her, jealous that she was prettier than her, and jealous that her father was superior to her grandfather at a young age.
Prime Minister Shen can still serve for another twenty or even thirty years, but Mr. Bo Ge can only last ten more years before he retires. By then, their family's status in the capital will plummet.
As long as Bo Ge remains in power, his sons will not be able to rise in official positions.
Today, the most taboo about crony collusion is that cronyism is difficult to define, but a family of father and son cannot escape suspicion.
But once Mr. Boge retires, they will have no one to support them in the court, and it will not be easy for them to climb higher.
Si Yiluo smiled and did not answer, and someone else stepped forward.
"My uncle was on duty at the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army. I heard that Miss Shen was out of the city and encountered bandits. Her innocence was almost lost. Reputation is very important to a woman. Miss Shen did not stay in the mansion to avoid the limelight, but ran away. Come out and show your face..."
Although what Bo Wanping said was unpleasant, it did not distort the facts, nor was it ridiculing. What he said later was a bit vicious.
And it poked Shen Moran's sore spot. She put down the teacup in her hand hard and was about to have an attack.
Si Yiluo gently placed his palm on the back of her hand and raised his eyes to the person who spoke.
"I wonder who your uncle is? If I remember correctly, Governor Wei was taking the lead at that time, and everyone in Shengjing City was trying their best to capture the secret agents of Beiliao. The Governor's Office of the Fifth Army was responsible for controlling the gates in the capital, screening A hidden thread that blends into the crowd.”
"Your uncle has time to meddle in other people's business and talk about other people's gossip. It can be seen that he was lazy at that time, which led to the secret escape. It is okay for me to hold him accountable for neglecting his duties now. Or should I say... your uncle deliberately neglected his duties?" Duty, give Beiliao’s hidden liners time to escape?”
"Is your uncle a collaborator with the enemy?"
Her voice was so sharp that a lady next to her was so frightened that she hurriedly pulled her to kneel down to apologize.
"Master Si, my daughter is young and ignorant, and she is also talking nonsense. You have a lot of money, please spare her!"
No one can afford to be labeled as a collaborator.
Jinyiwei are all unreasonable masters. They don't care whether there is evidence or not. As long as there is suspicion, they will be arrested and tried in prison.
If it's true, ask for credit and get a reward. If it's false, it's just a small matter of one more life and one less life. You bear the consequences yourself!
There are probably more people who died unjustly in prison than those who actually committed the crime!
The surroundings were as silent as cicadas. In this strange silence, the girl kneeling on the ground realized that she was afraid.
"I, I'm just talking nonsense..."
Si Yiluo raised his lips and smiled without saying anything.
The lady was also a good person. Seeing that she was silent, she turned her attention to Shen Moran.
"Miss Shen, I didn't mean to smear my reputation. I am here to apologize to you. You can punish her however you want. Please don't argue with her!"
Shen Moran also knew the person in front of her. It was a bad fate. This lady was Shen's cousin Sun who had been out of the fifth server for a long time. By chance, she hooked up with Shen.
Cui Sheng, Sun's husband, relied on Shen Kanxing's support to go from being a deputy supervisor of the Taipu Temple in the ninth rank to being the head of the Criminal Department in the sixth rank.
The speaker was Cui Tingting, Cui Sheng’s eldest daughter.
She and Shen Mingshu are so good that they can wear a pair of pants, but now they are standing up for her?
