At the first moment of Shenchu, Sheng Xiangxun returned to the Duke Sheng's Mansion from the Internal Guard.
As soon as he came back, he was about to go to Yongfan Garden when he asked the deputy steward of Anhe Hall who had been waiting at the front door to ask him to leave.
Duke Sheng Guo knew his son's character and knew that if he didn't arrange the meeting in advance, the boy would have to go to the house to report to Mrs. Zheng first. It would be good if he could remember to go to Anhe Hall after dinner.
Of course, after hearing the report from his third son, Duke Sheng Guo regretted it as he stroked his chest.
If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have called him here. He said he was so happy that he couldn't eat it today!
Don't worry, no one can make him worry.
Sheng Xiangxun was kicked out by his father, and he was not happy: "I said I'll report it to you when I get back? You didn't listen and insisted on asking the deputy steward to wait for me. Now I feel uncomfortable listening to it, and you took out your anger on me again. , what’s the point of this?!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a piece of gold and jade bat was thrown out of the window. Following the bat, Sheng Guogong roared with confidence: "Get out!"
"Okay! Thanks for the reward, old man!" Sheng Xiangxun smiled and shook the handle in his hand, and left humming a little tune.
Duke Sheng Guo was sitting by the study window, watching his troubled son walking out of the yard. He stroked his beard angrily and laughed, and sighed repeatedly: "Brother Xin..."
…
Sheng Yuan was sitting on the couch stacking wood, preparing to cap her fortress, when she heard her father's hearty laughter coming from outside.
"Dad!" Sheng Yuan turned over and crawled towards the window, not even caring about the fruits of her labor being overturned.
When the sound of the fortress collapsing echoed in Sheng Yuan's ears, she saw her father striding over with a smile from the window.
She was suddenly pleasantly surprised, clapped her little hands, jumped up and down and shouted in a high voice:
"Mom! Sister! Daddy is back!"
After Sheng Yuan shouted, she saw her mother and sister running out like a storm. They didn't even care about her. They stamped their feet in a hurry: "Me! Me! The baby hasn't caught up yet! Wait for me!"
Xiaoyao and several maids saw that she was so anxious that sweat was pouring from her forehead, so they hurriedly stepped forward to help her put on her shoes and socks.
"Hurry up! Hurry up! Sister Yuan is going out!" Sheng Yuan kicked her legs and kept urging.
Xiaoyao was helpless by her troubles and could only coax her: "Miss, please stop kicking your legs, otherwise you won't be able to put it on."
Sheng Yuan stopped moving and just kept humming.
After finally being able to jump off the ground, her father had already walked in surrounded by her mother and sister.
Sheng Yuan's legs jumped in frustration: "The baby hasn't been welcomed yet!"
"It's okay! It's okay! Daddy can't go out one more time!" Sheng Xiangxun saw his little daughter's eyes turned red and hurriedly ran out. When he stood in the yard, he opened his hand and said with a smile, "Sister Yuan, daddy I'm home!"
"Go quickly." Madam Zheng hugged her eldest daughter and waved to Shengyuan with a smile, pointed outside, and said with a smile, "Your father is calling you!"
Sheng Yuan's tears turned into laughter, her legs fluttered, and she ran towards her father.
"Daddy!"
"Hey! Sister Yuan!"
Sheng Yuan rushed into her father's arms and was instantly lifted up, still circling in place.
"Wuhu! Sister Yuan, let's fly!" Sheng Yuan opened her arms, raised her head and giggled.
By the time the family sat around the table chatting, it was already half a cup of tea.
It was only at this time that Sheng Yuan realized why people from the Internal Guard came to the door.
This matter has to start with her brother whom she has never met.
According to the original plan, her brother went to Nuerhan on a study tour with his maternal grandparents and Mr. Da Ru, and then he should turn around.
Unexpectedly, her brother met a local nobleman in Nuerhan, who was said to be a prince from Zheman. The two had not known each other before and became good friends.
Her brother is not only open-minded, but also has a strong learning ability.
Within a few days of meeting the prince, her brother became very fluent in Nurhan and Zheman languages, and she was delighted that the Zheman prince took her brother everywhere for fun.
Her brother knew how to play games involving skills and micro-gambling, and could win steadily after a few attempts. Therefore, the little prince Zheman and his friends idolized him and became her brother's little tail.
Later, when several people gathered together, they actually went on a horse riding tour in Ajong territory.
The above is the story behind her brother's recruitment of internal guards to the family.
Sheng Yuan peeled chestnuts with her little hands and continued to listen to her father and mother complaining.
"This kid arrived at the Ajong grassland and went horse racing and hunting with others. He turned around after a few days, but he didn't want to see the Ajong people oppressing the Central Plains people.
I don’t know how he planned it to cause a conflict between the nobles of the Ajong tribe and the prince of Zheman.
He took the opportunity to make a plan with Prince Zheman, and soon provoked a small-scale war involving three or four tribes.
As soon as the kid's plan was completed, he rolled up his sleeves and left. However, this small-scale war involved many people, including... including the spies arranged by the Internal Guard.
This guy unintentionally interfered with the plan of the Internal Guards. If they find out the situation, they will find him and me! "
After Zheng heard about it, her first reaction was how was Xin'er? !
Sheng Xiangxun snorted: "He? He's okay! The internal guards who brought him back will probably arrive in the capital tomorrow."
When she heard that her son was fine and would be back soon, Madam Zheng clapped her hands happily: "That's great! It'll be great if he comes back! It'll be great if he comes back!"
Thinking of not seeing her son for several years, Ms. Zheng couldn't help crying.
Although they exchange letters once a month, each letter contains detailed descriptions and pictures, but in the end it is not as good as meeting face to face.
"Hey, why are you crying now?"
Sheng Xiangxun quickly picked up the handkerchief and wiped her tears.
"Xin'er will not leave when he comes back this time! At least, he can stay until he is named on the gold list! If he enters the Hanlin Academy, he will not leave us easily. What a good thing!"
Mrs. Zheng sobbed and nodded: "Li'er is such a Li'er, I'm not too happy!"
The couple talked and smiled at each other, but they forgot about the two girls.
Sheng Yuan was unhappy and clapped her paws to make her presence felt: "What dad said is wrong! If my brother is sent abroad in the future, unless you and your mother go to work with him, we will still have to separate!"
Zheng and Sheng Xiangxun looked at each other closely: "..."
Sure enough, children are a species with their own light, which can easily make the tenderness of a couple disappear in an instant.
The big lantern Shengyuan didn't know that he was disliked, so he shook his sister's arm and asked her about his brother: "He sounds like a very interesting person... So is he a good brother?"
Sheng Ran has a good impression of her eldest brother, but it's hard to say whether he can become the best brother.
As far as she knew, the eldest brother didn't seem to give way to his younger sister in the traditional sense.
"Didn't he send us delicious and fun things from time to time?" Sheng Ran didn't know if her brother had changed a bit after not seeing him for a long time, so she couldn't be sure whether he was still that childish, so she talked about him.
Sheng Yuan did not hear what her sister meant, and she blinked her eyes longingly, looking forward to her brother's arrival.
