"Then Guanpu...does my sister have to go?"
In the bronze mirror, Feng Yue had a worried face. She held the peony-patterned jade grate in her hand, one by one, one by one, as if she was not combing her hair, but raking and combing her worries.
Shen Nanbao glanced at it and then focused on the dowry, "It's not something I can do without going. You should also know who is behind Madam Liu, and whose clan member is Shengshizhou."
Then there was a moment of silence.
Feng Yue's broken throat was slowly heard from behind, "It's the saint..."
After saying this, another word hurriedly rang out from the partition door, "The saint has never met my sister. Why did you take so much trouble to drag your sister into your camp? He even didn't hesitate to use King Sheng Yi to do it." His legitimate son?"
Shen Nanbao glanced outside and saw Lu Kui coming in with water. The panic on his face was no less than Feng Yue's.
But her worries are different from Fengyue's.
She just felt that it was Xiao Yichen who was happy for her sister. The saint's imitating things like this was just beating a mandarin duck, and it would hurt her feelings.
But for Fengyue, she knew about the saint's past life, and she also knew that her sister's death in the previous life was closely related to the saint, so just going like this was like jumping obediently into the trap set by the saint.
Shen Nanbao thought but kept silent, only looking out the window.
At this time, the old man's head emerged from the mountain. The golden color fell in Shen Nanbao's eyes, like the glass lying in a beautifully carved and carved box, with a clear color.
Shen Nanbao picked up the beads and compared them on her forehead. Her skin color was fair. She used to have a lot of hair, and her white skin always showed a bit of yellow. Wearing such jewelry looks good, but it always doesn't match.
It's fine now. According to Xiao Yichen's words, I have good food every day, my cheeks are plump, and I have a good spirit when I smile. Wearing such beads is the icing on the cake, making my face radiant.
If he comes back, he will be very happy to see her like this!
Shen Nanbao couldn't help but touch the skirt, and the cold touch aroused her infinite tenderness. If she shook it again, it would transform into a frightened bird, fluttering around in her palm, and leaping into her heart. go.
Even though she knew that the bell would no longer flutter at this time, she couldn't help but shake it, shaking out all the longing for his early return in her heart.
Lv Kui came over with a towel on his shoulder and asked, "What's this new golden bell? I've been wearing it these days. I shake it from time to time, but I don't hear any sound from it. Sometimes it doesn't ring." It can even move on its own!"
Shen Nanbao didn't hide it from her, "My eldest brother gave it to me. I have one for him. As long as we are within a hundred miles apart, if we shake this golden bell, we can feel each other's strings." I'll ring this golden bell when I get up, but there will be no response. I'm afraid he has already arrived in Jiangnan."
She still called him that, but her tone had already changed. Lu Kui knew it well and pretended not to hear it.
Feng Yue smacked her lips in another way, and her face changed color, "This is the perfect time! My sister is going on such a trip today. If anything happens, even the master can't save her."
Lu Kui spat at her, "Bah! Nothing has happened yet, and here you are just opening your mouth to get into trouble!"
Feng Yue immediately pouted a few times after hearing this, and hurriedly explained: "Sister, I am just scared, and I am also thinking, why don't you politely refuse? You can wait until the master comes back, right?"
"Decline?"
Shen Nanbao glanced at her and said, "With the saint's method, it doesn't matter whether my polite refusal will work or not, but it will work. What should the big brother who is far away in the south of the Yangtze River do? Do you know that a cup of wine will release military power? In the beginning, the saint could advocate the official Yan Qing The commander of the front hall and the front department ordered He Yan to release the military power and wear a yellow robe. How could he know that the eldest brother would not be the next one?"
After saying these words, Shen Nanbao felt something pressing against her.
She lowered her head and saw that she was almost healed. He was raising his fleshy little body and using his little paws to pull at the embroidered moire pattern on her skirt. The intention was obviously to ask her to hug her. .
Thinking of what the veterinarian said, Shen Nanbao didn't dare to move it much. He only leaned down to touch it, "Be good, baby. When you get better, I will hold you every day."
Bao'er's name was too easy to confuse, so Shen Nanbao chose the chosen one, and it became even more precious when he called it.
Feng Yue's confused voice came from above her head, "Isn't this good? If you are an idle official, you don't have to be so worried."
Shen Nanbao stood up and looked at her angrily, "Eldest brother is hated by so many people now, not to mention not being hated by so many people. How many lives the front secretary has been involved in, don't all of them count to him?" On the head, as long as he retreats, won't those enemies come to settle accounts with him, won't they come and secretly want him dead one by one?"
Feng Yue's face turned pale when she heard this, and she felt like she was plunging into a whirlpool, with shocking death situations everywhere.
Seeing her like this, Shen Nanbao stopped scaring her and took a breath, "So, I have to answer, not to mention just looking at the situation, the sky is clear and the sun is bright, and there are so many people, what can they do?"
That's all.
The power of the emperor is greater than that of heaven. Now that the king of heaven is here, I have to think carefully about what I do and what I do in front of local cowards.
With a lawsuit in mind, Fengyue tied up Shen Nanbao's bun and left the county prince's mansion together.
Sheng Shizhou's carriage had been waiting in front of the parade for a long time. As soon as Shen Nanbaofu came out, Sheng Shizhou walked up the steps to help her.
It was impossible for Shen Nanbao to respond, so he hurriedly put his sleeves into his armholes and crossed them on his chest. He knelt down and said, "Mr. Fu, I've been waiting for a long time."
After a set of actions, it didn't seem abrupt and smoothly pushed him away.
In the ray of light under the sun, the drowsy gold dust floated violently. It was Sheng Shizhou who put his hands back and said, "I was afraid of asking the second girl to wait, so I came out earlier than the agreed time. It's okay to wait for a long time."
Probably because he was afraid that her politeness would delay Chen Guang, Sheng Shizhou added, "I asked the chief attendants in the house not to report the news. Don't blame them. It's getting late. Second girls, please get on your horse as soon as possible."
Fengyue couldn't help but murmur when she heard this. She sounded like our sister was the master who treated the servants harshly.
Yibi Lukui heard this, glanced at her, and warned her.
Feng Yue then babbled, just staring at her toes with her eyes vacantly, and helped Shen Nanbao get into the car, and then watched Shengshizhou's cloud-patterned shoe decorations following closely behind her, shining brightly in the light, and also Sneaked into the carriage.
There was a buzzing sound on the official road.
The crunching sound of wheels rolling over each other was like feet stepping on dead branches, making the sound of Shengshizhou's low voice penetrate into Shen Nanbao's ears like a worm.
"Have you ever seen Guan Pu?"
Shen Nanbao shook his head, "I was fortunate enough to be invited by Uncle Xie earlier, but I have never been there."
It goes without saying that old sesame seeds rotten millet.
Sheng Shizhou curled her lips sarcastically, like frost on the corrugated corrugations, and her panic-stricken eyes disappeared in an instant as soon as the skylight hit her, "It's a good thing you didn't go."
Seeing her looking over with wonder, the arc at the corner of his mouth was revealed again in the light and shadow, "He is very fond of this kind of thing, so he can bring some young ladies with him. He once jokingly said, 'Bring young ladies with you, you will be tired of gambling. If he takes a quick look at them and then looks at them, they will have a different charm. If he takes advantage of the situation and takes some away, that will make him even more satisfied."
This does not seem to be what Xie Yuanchang said, but regardless of whether it is similar or not, it is not a good character to criticize people behind their back.
Shen Nanbao lowered his eyes and just smiled, complying with his words.
The carriage gradually approached Jin Mingchi. Through a curtain, Shen Nanbao could hear the wave of joy inside. It came from the heart. After all, he was winning money. His pockets were stuffed. Who could dislike.
Of course, victory and defeat are commonplace, and there are wins and losses, but for these hairpin families, even if they lose a hundred thousand taels, it is just a pain in the body. Anyway, it is just for leisure and fun, and it is not worth it. These cleanse the moral integrity.
This is what the officials like to see.
The natural and man-made disasters in the early years have hollowed out the national treasury. In order to replenish it, the meager annual income of 20 million taels alone is far from enough. The officials have focused on these wealthy families and used Guan Pu to drain the wealth of these families. An opening was opened in the purse, allowing them to unknowingly pour out the real money.
Therefore, boats were set up above and below the bridges, around the cloisters, and even on the lake for the wealthy families to play with their belongings.
As soon as he entered, tourists were coming and going, and the colorful curtains were closed, like a cage containing colorful night pearls, standing huge in front of his eyes, which made Shen Nanbao dazzled.
Several figures walked over, all dressed in rich and colorful clothes. They smiled at Shengshizhou, "How strange! I never see you here! Why are you here today!"
Sheng Shizhou bowed, still in the elegant manner of a scholar, and said, "Come with Miss Xiao."
As soon as he said this, there were boos in shock, and gazes came from all directions, making Shen Nanbao feel like he had become a sieve, with wind everywhere.
A man with a thick neck and a broad square face walked up, looked Shen Nanbao up and down, turned back again, and patted Sheng Shizhou on the shoulder, "No wonder, there is such a warm and jade-like young lady, let alone come here. , you have to go up to the mountain of swords and the sea of fire!"
"Isn't that right? Even a young man like Uncle Xie would be enamored by her. He would come to the house every day just to take a look at the second girl!"
The delicate throat and the protracted tone produced a scornful tone.
Shen Nanbao looked over and saw the young lady Xiang who was wearing a horse-faced skirt and walked up to her side. Uncharacteristically, he put his arm around her in an affectionate manner, "Not only that, it's Chen Duhu, the fourth son of the Fu family. They all regard our second girl as their darling."
The young lady paused for a moment, glanced at the various expressions on everyone's faces, then looked at Shen Nanbao and said with a smile: "However, from my point of view, Mr. Sheng is the best at looking at each other, and the two of us are the best." Girls are perfect when they stand together! Thinking about it, Miss Xiao Er, who was brought up in the world, can have such a good fortune today, I am really happy for Miss Xiao Er!"
