And when Sheng Changquan left, Mrs. Sheng immediately waved to Fang's mother to take away the rest of the people in the house, leaving only her and Minglan, which obviously meant that she had something to say. .
"Yes, old lady!"
After Fang's mother responded, she glanced around and immediately took the little girls out, leaving only the grandfather and grandson sitting in the house.
"grandmother……"
Minglan had already vaguely expected it.
"Tomorrow, it seems you have guessed it too!"
Mrs. Sheng put down the Jianzhan in her hand, looked at Minglan, and asked helplessly: "On the way back, I heard the rumors between you and the young master. You guys..."
"...What exactly is going on?"
…
No one knew what was said between the old lady and Minglan. Even Fang's mother, the most powerful person around the old lady, had only a partial understanding and was confused.
However, relying on the familiarity between the two old sisters, Fang's mother guessed and guessed what was going on here, and she felt a little confident.
Anyway, when everyone saw Mrs. Sheng and her grandson coming out, their faces were all harmonious, as if everything was calm and nothing had happened.
Therefore, everyone ignored this matter.
After all, the most important thing right now is the trial release of the rankings.
However, just the day before the examination results were released, a special carriage stopped in front of the Sheng Mansion.
It was a carriage with an ordinary appearance, ordinary shape, and everything else.
However, although this carriage looks ordinary, the materials inside are extremely precious, and it can be called the Rolls-Royce of the carriage world.
The brown-red shaft, frame, etc., seem to be no different from those of other brands, but in the hands of experts driving the cars, they can easily tell the difference between the two.
Although they appear to be extremely similar on the outside, as if they are the same, in fact their values are worlds apart.
One is difficult to obtain and has powerful effects, while the other's raw materials can be easily found in the mountains. Although it can be used, the effect is definitely not as good as the former.
The former not only has its own fragrance, but also can emit a special fragrance that repels mosquitoes. More importantly, it has a good effect. It is extremely effective for transportation such as horse-drawn carriages.
This kind of wood called "Nanheng Agarwood" not only has good elasticity, which can reduce the vibration of the carriage when walking, giving the owner a more comfortable environment, but also has stronger toughness and can Maximize the protection of the owner in the carriage when an accident occurs while the carriage is traveling.
"Nanheng Agarwood" is like a combination of spring and safety belt. It is an extremely precious wood.
Moreover, because this kind of wood has a picky growth environment and a slow growth time, it only grows one inch every ten years. If you want to make a carriage out of it, it is absolutely impossible to do it without an ancient tree that has been growing for hundreds of years. Got it.
Therefore, this kind of carriage is the kind of top-notch thing that only people with good foundation can enjoy, but it is rare for ordinary nouveau riche to even see it.
At the very least, I have never seen a portal like the Sheng family, let alone done it.
"Master!"
When the carriage stopped, the driver immediately jumped out of the carriage, walked to the window of the carriage, and whispered to the owner inside the carriage: "We have arrived at Sheng Mansion!"
"Oh, is it so?"
Suddenly a clear male voice came from the carriage.
The car curtain moved slightly, and a pair of bright eyes looked through the gap: "Well, we're here!"
"hehe!"
Seeing the word "Shengfu" on the door plaque of the Sheng family, the young master in the car seemed to smile.
"Qinshan, if you go and pay homage to my family with the post, you will say that I am here to find a friend!"
The visitor was suddenly Sheng Changquan's new friend, Shen Li.
"Yes, Master!"
After the people outside replied, they immediately turned around and left. They walked to the gate of Sheng Mansion and handed a greeting card to the servant guarding the door.
In fact, it was Shen Li's side chief, Sui Qinshan, who was the driver of the carriage. Because Shen Li did not want to involve things related to the Shen family to his most cherished friendship, so when he came to Sheng Mansion this time, he did not A person came "quietly".
However, although Shen Li was thinking and doing this, he did not know that the relatives in his family had clearly grasped his walking route today, including whether he wanted to Go and meet his friend Sheng Changquan.
Shen Jun didn't mention it for now, after all, the reason she knew was because Shen Li asked her to embroider the sachet, but the understanding between Shen Shouzheng and his wife was somewhat interesting.
There is only one possibility for this situation to happen, and that is that Shen Li should be surrounded by people arranged by the couple.
Of course, they didn't have any malicious intentions, they just simply wanted to protect their stupid son.
However, Shen Li's father, Lord Shen Shouzheng, did not object to Shen Li's friendship with Sheng Changquan, and even vaguely agreed.
Although Shen Shouzheng knew that Sheng Changquan's purpose of approaching Shen Li might not be so pure, Lord Shen didn't care.
Not to mention whether there is such a kind of pure friendship without any other things in this world, but in Master Shen's eyes, Sheng Changquan is already very popular with him.
Not to mention Sheng Changquan's reading ability, but his scheming and methods can be seen at a young age.
Obviously, after Shen Li came into contact with Sheng Changquan, Shen Shouzheng quickly found someone to investigate Sheng Changquan's deeds in the past years, including the little tricks he secretly used to become famous during the Tongsheng Examination.
Although the information about Sheng Changquan is not complete or comprehensive, it is not difficult to estimate the results based on the stack of information in Mr. Shen's hand.
With Shen Shouzheng's ability, he could probably guess it.
Of course, these things were just deliberately exposed by Sheng Changquan.
There is no information about him practicing martial arts all year round and even having good skills. The things in Master Shen's hands are only a sentence that records that Sheng Changquan has practiced martial arts.
Not only the transmitter of the information, but also Mr. Shen himself ignored it.
No one knows how high Sheng Changquan’s martial arts skills are!
…
Sheng Mansion, Wei Ruixuan.
"Lord!"
"Lord!"
"..."
Today, Sheng Hong did not go to the Yamen to handle official business. Instead, he stayed in Mrs. Wang's courtyard and chatted with her.
It's not that there is anything wrong with Sheng Hong staying at home. In fact, it's just because Sheng Hong is concerned about tomorrow's list and deliberately took a three-day holiday!
"Huh? Who?"
"Who's yelling?"
When Mrs. Wang, who was having a good conversation with her officials, heard someone making a noise outside, she immediately raised her eyebrows, opened her mouth and shouted angrily: "You don't know the rules, how dare you yell randomly in the Sheng family?"
Mrs. Wang looked extremely angry because the communication between husband and wife was interrupted!
"Finally, the master didn't go to the Linqi Pavilion and came to my place. How could he be disturbed by a young boy!"
Mrs. Wang had suppressed the anger in her stomach, and she immediately seemed to take this opportunity to vent her anger.
"Oh, forget it!"
When Mrs. Wang stood up from the opposite side, Sheng Hong opened her mouth to defend the boy outside who was so frightened that he knelt on the ground.
"There must be something big going on, otherwise, he wouldn't dare to act like this!"
"Madam, please spare him!"
When the bottom line is not involved, Sheng Hong is still very talkative.
"snort!"
After being persuaded by Sheng Hong, Mrs. Wang naturally had to sit back down.
"This time, you are lucky, and your master will intercede for you!"
"If you dare to do it again next time, I will definitely punish you severely!"
"Ah? Yes! Yes! Show mercy to Madam Xie! Thank you Lord for showing mercy!"
The boy who came to Wei Ruixuan was named Ding Wu. He was named because his surname was Ding and he was the fifth in the family.
At this time, Ding Wu hurriedly kowtowed to Sheng Hong and his wife, showing his gratitude.
"Okay! Ding Wu, get up!"
Sheng Hong glanced at Ding Wu in front of him and asked, "Tell me, what happened?"
"Why did you run into the backyard in such a hurry without fear of hitting others?"
Because Ding Wu is the gatekeeper of the Sheng Mansion, the invitation to the Shen family just now is naturally what he wants to report in return.
"What?"
"Is this a greeting card from Mr. Shen?"
After Ding Wu finished speaking, Sheng Hong was immediately shocked!
"Ding Wu, who got off the carriage? Is it Mr. Shen?"
The Shen family is now on the rise, so Sheng Hong is naturally paying close attention to it, not to mention Shen Shouzheng, the head of the Shen family, in this sub-examination.
"Returning to my lord, the person who got off the car was not Lord Shen, but the young master of the Shen family, Young Master Shen Li."
Because of the special nature of the Shen family, everyone knew Shen Li, not to mention the communicative genius Sheng Hong!
To be honest, in order to benefit his family's future official career, Sheng Hong has really worked hard. Among them, he knows the character and hobbies of his fellow officials, and remembers their families so as not to offend...
All these things are difficult to explain clearly at the moment.
"Okay, please step back first!"
Sheng Hong waved his hand to Ding Wu on the ground and motioned him to get down, but he himself began to ponder secretly.
"It's strange why Mr. Shen came to my house. Is it because of Feng'er?"
Sheng Hong thought that the only person in his family who might be related to the Shen family was Sheng Changfeng, who had "wide connections".
"Haha, I didn't expect that Feng'er has some brains and can make friends like Young Master Shen!"
"Well, it's really good!"
…
Unfortunately, the distinguished guest in Sheng Hong's eyes was not in Sheng Changfeng's yard at this time, but came to Ze Yu Tang.
One of the study rooms is in Zhiyuan Hall.
"Shendu, why are you here?"
Sheng Changquan was really surprised when he saw Shen Li.
"Hahaha!"
"Chang Quan, why can't I come?"
Shen Li smiled and waved his hand to Sheng Changquan, pretending to be unhappy and said: "What, Changquan, don't you welcome me?"
"Shen Du, what are you talking about?"
"How could I not welcome you here?"
Sheng Changquan put down the book in his hand, stood up from behind the desk, walked to Shen Li, and pulled him to sit on the other side.
"However, I really didn't expect you to come here during this period of time."
Seeing Shen Li's puzzled expression, Sheng Changquan sighed secretly: "Shen Du is really innocent!"
It sounds simple at best, but in reality it's slow and doesn't understand the stakes here.
However, this also shows that Shen Li is indeed not good at officialdom. After all, with Shen Li's level in this unconventional court, he may not survive the first day.
"Shendu, have you forgotten?"
"Your father is still a sub-examiner in this examination, and there are two candidates in my family who are participating in this examination!"
Even at home, Sheng Changquan still lowered his voice and whispered: "Aren't you afraid of something happening this time?"
"Huh? This?"
Shen Li was also surprised at first, but then he thought about it again and realized that he was sitting in the carriage and he didn't show up. People outside probably didn't know who he was.
This matter is expected to have little impact.
"Chang Quan, don't worry, I'm riding in the family carriage. I'm afraid no one will know who is inside."
While talking, Shen Li apparently forgot the word "Shen" written on the lanterns in front of his carriage.
However, after hearing Shen Li say that he had moved his family's carriage, Sheng Changquan breathed a sigh of relief and felt that the matter was probably nothing. After all, Shen Li's travel route this time had probably been blocked long ago. His family members discovered it.
It's useless to think too much. Sheng Changquan simply took it as what Shen Li said was right, so he didn't say anything more.
Because Sheng Changquan knew that Shen Li didn't really like his family members interfering in his affairs.
"By the way, Chang Quan, did you lose your sachet?"
Seeing Sheng Changquan stopped talking, Shen Li immediately revealed the purpose of his trip.
"Haha, Chang Quan, I saw your sachet at the last polo meeting. I originally wanted to return it to you, but because I saw that the decoration on it was too worn, I asked my embroiderer to make it for you again. I caught one, what do you think?"
"Maybe not allowed to go to your house?"
Shen Li concealed the existence of Shen Jun in this matter because of the importance of the reputation of his daughter's family in this world, so even though Shen Li felt that Sheng Changquan would be better off, he still safeguarded his sister's reputation to avoid It hurts the family.
"Oh, is it so?"
If Shen Li hadn't mentioned the sachet issue again, Sheng Changquan would have almost forgotten it by now.
"Okay, let me take a look!"
Sheng Changquan took a sachet embroidered with fat carp from Shen Li's hand and looked at it carefully.
