"Yan Xuezheng's surname is Yan, and the chief minister's surname is also Yan. They are the same family?!" Sheng Yuan was extremely curious.
Also curious was Zheng.
The two of them looked at each other eagerly. Sheng Xiangxun didn't dare to stop and said hurriedly: "It doesn't count, it doesn't count!"
"How do you say this!" Sheng Yuan and Zheng looked at each other, both of them confused.
"To be more precise, Yan Shoufu's father and Yan Shilang's father are cousins."
When Sheng Yuan heard this, she couldn't help but clasp her fingers: "Then Yan Shoufu and Yan Shilang are considered uncles and brothers, and they are considered distant relatives in Yan Xuezheng's generation."
Sheng Xiangxun nodded: "I also heard from the emperor. It seems that Yan Shoufu's grandfather and Yan Shilang's grandfather had a conflict, and they have not been in contact with each other since they were older generations. Although Yan Shoufu and Yan Shilang were officials in the same dynasty, For decades, they have basically not spoken to each other outside of official business, and there has never been any contact between the two governments."
Sheng Yuan was not curious about the past of the two Yan families, but now she was curious about the emperor's arrival.
How come this person today knows all about the trivial matters of the minister's family? How free does he have to be? !
Or just use the minister's family affairs as a notebook to relieve boredom!
"But it's okay that Yan Shoufu didn't block the future of Yan Shilang's branch." Ms. Zheng felt that Yan Shoufu was in a high position but didn't put pressure on Yan Shilang, so it was pretty good.
Sheng Xiangxun smiled: "Yan Shoufu is the most transparent person, and he leaves room for treatment of others, let alone family members? Now there is a line left. When the critical moment comes, Yan Shilang and his son will also help for the sake of their children and grandchildren." With his help, the family cannot be affected after all."
Sheng Yuan nodded: "That's right."
This ancient feudal dynasty really likes to affect the family, and it is always affected by the three or nine tribes. Many branches of the family have never enjoyed the glory, but are affected by it. How pitiful!
She was asked to say that if the emperor wants to punish, he should only punish the direct beneficiaries.
When she was muttering this, her father was already talking about her cousin Sheng Ting's fiancé.
"The Yan family has a good family tradition. From Yan Shilang to Yan Xuezheng, there is no such thing as concubines. I heard that their family seems to have a rule of 'forty-year-old children are not allowed to have concubines'."
I heard from the fourth child that the younger husband of the Yan family is a well-behaved and interesting child. Although he doesn't have the heart and ambition of his elder brother, he still looks rich and looks like a man enjoying happiness.
The fourth child said that Sister Ting and the child had the same interests and similar ideas. If what he said was true, wouldn't this be a good match? ! "
"Huh?!" Sheng Yuan listened with interest until she heard what the fourth uncle said. She asked curiously, "How did the fourth uncle know that the fourth sister and that young man had the same interests? He asked the fourth sister to meet that young man. ?!”
"Of course it's because... eh?! Sister Yuan! Why are you everywhere! Are you so curious?" Mrs. Zheng was about to answer when she saw the little guy chatting about various things and couldn't help but sigh. she.
"I just wanted to ask!" When Sheng Yuan saw that the person was going to attack her again, she immediately ran away with her head in her hands.
Walking to the yard, I looked up at the clear stars and the hazy moon disk in the night sky, took a deep breath of cool air, then put my little hands behind my back, exhaled slowly while shaking my head, and strolled towards Go to your own small courtyard.
"It's pretty quiet now." Zheng and Sheng Xiangxun returned to the inner room and sighed in unison.
The two of them looked at the peaceful space with satisfaction, and held hands on the small couch by the window. They smiled and asked the maid to open the window and roll down the gauze curtain, and then asked the maid to bring melon and fruit liqueur and put it on the small table between the soft couches. superior.
The couple cooked wine, drank, laughed and chatted in front of the small red clay stove. They really enjoyed it!
On the other side of Shengyuan, the system was chattering and worried to her.
[Sister Yuan, if Yan Xuezheng’s brother becomes your cousin-in-law, won’t you be able to take the exam in his examination room? 】
The system is really afraid that Sheng Yuan will withdraw from the exam because she wants to avoid suspicion.
"You think too much!" Sheng Yuan wrote in big letters while comforting her, "It doesn't matter even if my cousin marries him! There are conditions for people to avoid suspicion, and only immediate family members can adopt it! In other words, the invigilator It’s my grandfather and father who have to avoid suspicion.”
The system blinked: [Is that so? ! 】
It whizzed away to communicate with the main system.
Sheng Yuan shrugged and reminded the system: "If you have any questions in the future, you can communicate with the main system first."
Waiting for her to give the answer every time before checking with the main system for confirmation is simply unnecessary!
After complaining through the system, Sheng Yuan put down her pen and began to think about the marriage between her fourth sister and the younger husband of the Yan family.
"Dad is full of praise for Yan Xuezheng. Come to think of it, Yan Xuezheng is really amazing! He is so handsome and handsome, and his younger brother's appearance is not too bad! The person in front of me is good-looking, and he can eat three big things when he eats. Bowl! Fourth sister has a blessed eye!"
…
"Sneeze!" After finishing writing a letter, Sheng Ting suddenly sneezed a few times. The maid in front of her was so startled that she came forward to care for her.
"Maybe someone is talking about it, so don't be surprised." Sheng Tia looked at the sealed letter happily, locked it in the mailbox given to her by Yan Lang, and shook her head at the maid.
Just as the maid was about to coax her to drink a cup of hot tea, she heard the sound of pigeons flapping their wings outside the window. She hurriedly opened the window and reached out to bring in the white pigeon nestled on the windowsill.
"Miss, could it be..." She pointed in the direction of the imperial city outside the house.
Sheng Ting lowered her face and took the paper tube that the maid had untied from the pigeon's leg.
She took out the note and looked at the few lines of words on it casually, her anger gradually rising.
"Send all the pigeons and mailboxes to grandma's house!" Sheng Ting looked at the time and knew that Anhe Hall had not locked the door yet, so she couldn't help but ask the maid to come over.
But as soon as the maid said yes, she changed her mind: "Bring me my cloak and prepare a few plates of the snacks I learned from Yongxing Houfu in the small kitchen. I will go to Anhe Hall to visit in person."
With that said, she put the letter back into the mailbox herself and put the dove in her sleeve.
…
"Sixth Sister, why is this happening!" After letting her grandma see Sheng Ting off, Mrs. Chang sighed out the window.
"Madam, could it be that I want to leave the palace?" Mammy made hot tea for Mrs. Chang and comforted her in a low voice, "The little girl can't stay in the palace, and it's possible that she has some random thoughts."
Mrs. Chang was amused by Grandma's words: "Can you believe what you said?!"
She didn't believe it anyway.
"The Duke of Guo kept secret about the second father and daughter's visit to the palace six years ago, but who can't see some clues?" Mrs. Chang sighed, "The sixth sister is not Sister Yuan. Does the palace know who she is? If there is no reason, How can we keep her here for a long time?"
"Although I don't know the inside story, I still have some vague guesses... The reason why I don't ask more is because it's not necessary. The Heavenly Family has decided this, how dare I not respond? If I were her, I would be safe and sound. Yes! Even though we are not free, we don’t have to worry about food, drink, or our future. It’s also a kind of stability. Why mess with it and make everyone unhappy.”
