wealthy queen

"drive!"

In the dark night, several fast horses protected a carriage and drove rapidly on the official road. At three o'clock, a group of people stopped at the gate of Wangyue City. The city gate was closed. Shen Ruiting let Shen Xiang's 13-year-old son Knocking on the city gate, he showed the seal of the Minister of the Household Department and asked to see General Ling or Huaiyang Hou. The general guarding the city could distinguish the authenticity of the seal, and immediately ordered the gate to be opened, and respectfully welcomed him in.

"Shen Houye, why did you come in person so late? But the emperor has an urgent order?"

Ling Wei, who was both quarreled, appeared together with Marquis of Huaiyang. Shen Ruiting was Marquis of Dongling and Minister of the Household Department. He could not leave the imperial city casually without an official business dispatched by the emperor. They also took it for granted that he was doing it for Come on business.

"Master Jing, General Ling."

Shen Ruiting greeted them with clasped fists respectively, and said with a bitter face after the incident: "The Marquis is not here for business, but wants to meet Master Ruian, I wonder if we can arrange it?"

The affairs of the Marquis of Dongling have long been known to everyone. In addition, Shen Liang is now famous and has been married to King Qingping by the imperial decree. Ling Wei and Marquis of Huaiyang also pay more or less attention to their affairs. I guessed his purpose almost instantly, but...

"Master Shen, why are you so confused? We can go back in at most twenty days. If you leave the imperial city privately at this time, once you let the emperor know, he will definitely not spare you."

Although the two of them didn't have much contact with him, all three of them were officials in the same court, and they were all members of the top group. Even though they disdained his belief in ghosts and gods in their hearts, they were still more or less genuinely worried about him on the surface.

"I just can't wait."

Shen Ruiting was not afraid of the jokes between the two, as there was too much bitterness in the smiles.

"Forget it, I will have someone take you to Master Ryan's residence."

Ling Wei and Huaiyang Hou looked at each other, summoned a soldier to let him lead the way, Shen Ruiting thanked them hurriedly and left.

"If I knew today, why was it in the first place?"

Looking at their shadows disappearing into the night, Hou Huaiyang sighed helplessly. He is a military marquis, and he has a good relationship with the Wei family. Naturally, he also knows Wei Zeqian. He is a very attractive pair, warm, cheerful and lively. , can bring people endless happiness, his life could have been colorful, who would have thought that he would go so early in the end, fortunately his two sons are up to the challenge, he should be able to rest in peace under the nine springs up.

"Sometimes people are easy to be blinded by a leaf, but I think he seems to have seen it clearly, but he still needs a strong proof."

Ling Wei also lamented that people like them have dedicated their lives to the court and the people, and it is indeed easy to ignore their own small family. If they are a little more confused, it is normal for the backyard to catch fire.

"Yes."

The two looked at each other, and both expressed helplessness. Shen Ruiting's behavior was indeed looked down upon, but as outsiders, they were not qualified to judge.

After the Wangyue City incident, Ryan has been hailed as a living Buddha, but Ryan is an extremely forbearing and capable person. His residence is not a wealthy family, but a small temple built in the city. Shen Ruiting visited in the middle of the night , did not explain his identity, nor did he reveal his name, but only said that he had something to ask Master Ruian.

The little monk in the temple asked Ryan for instructions and got his permission before bringing him and Chen Xiang into the meditation room.

"Grandmaster!"

The meditation room is not big, and you can see Ryan when you enter. Shen Ruiting clasped his hands together and greeted him proactively. Ryan, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, made a gesture of invitation: "Both benefactors, please sit down."

"Thank you, Master."

The two sat down one after the other, Shen Ruiting was anxious and didn't know how to speak for a while, but Ryan asked, "I wonder what the two benefactors are doing here late at night?"

"This……"

After a little hesitation, Shen Ruiting took out a note from his sleeve pocket, put it on the table and pushed it in front of him: "I'm sorry to bother you, Master, please help me approve this person's fate."

What was written on the note was Shen Liang's birth date.

Ryan picked up the horoscope and looked at it, closed his eyes pretending to move the beads, and said after a while: "This person will definitely be very expensive in the future, but he is destined to commit evil spirits. Fortunately, all the hardships have passed, and he will be smooth sailing in the future."

Ryan was able to cheat food and drink for so long without being exposed by others. Naturally, he has the ability. The two people in front of him came to visit mysteriously in the middle of the night. At first glance, they were not ordinary people. Ryan deduced that the owner of the horoscope must be their relatives, since they are relatives , it must be either rich or expensive, and when they took out the horoscope, they were extremely nervous, as if they were trying to prove something, and he guessed that the owner of the horoscope must have been in trouble, but he should be fine now. Based on the above, he concluded reached such a conclusion.

Although Shen Liang didn't communicate with him, it coincided with him.

"You...are you serious?"

Even though he had guessed it long ago, when the facts were really revealed in front of him, Shen Ruiting was still greatly shocked, his upright sitting posture collapsed in an instant, and even his eyes blurred. Seeing this, Chen Xiang hurriedly supported him: "Master , cheer up."

"Almsgiver, the poor monk is a monk, so don't lie, as the horoscope told me, that's it."

Seeing this, Ryan confirmed his guess even more, and his attitude became firmer.

"I'm... cold... poof..."

Not only is Shen Liang not a scourge of evil stars, but also his life is invaluable. Shen Ruiting breathed hard with his mouth open, but found that the air seemed to be unable to suck in. At the moment tears of regret fell from his mouth, a bloody arrow suddenly spewed out of his mouth. Then fainted.

"Master? Master..."

Chen Xiang was startled, he quickly helped him up, and before leaving, he did not forget to bow to Ryan.

In Liri, the news of Shen Hui's death reached the Hou Mansion, and the servants of the Jingzhao Mansion personally went to the Hou Mansion to ask Shen Ruiqing to identify the body. After confirming his identity, Shen Ruiqing was told that Shen Hui died of horse wind. Feeling ashamed or not paying attention to this son at all, Shen Ruiqing just asked someone to buy a thin coffin, and casually carried him to the Zhuangzi, dug a hole and buried him.

This matter did not cause the slightest disturbance. At the same time, Shen Liang also received news from Mochiyue City that Shen Ruiting had indeed gone to find Rui'an, and because of this, he fainted. Only at night did Shen Xiang and his son and the shadow guards... The next day, the whole mansion knew that Shen Ruiting had fallen ill. Liu Shuhan, Shen Ruiqing and others all went to the front yard, but without exception, no one saw Shen Ruiting himself, only Shen Liang, from beginning to end Neither showed up.

On the night of the fifth day, Shen Liang got the news again. Shen Ruiqing and his brothers were indeed ruthless. They specially sent someone to Cangjiang City to find a certain poisonous Jianghu grass, and bought a drug from him that can make people severely comatose, but will not The deadly poison, after getting it back, mixed it with the old godmother's medicine soup to coax her to drink it.

Probably the old godly woman would never have dreamed that her own son would harm her, right?

When Shen Liang learned about this, he just sneered, and didn't think about exposing them. He was still waiting, waiting for a suitable time to make a final blow, and completely drove the old godmother and the second and third bedrooms out of the Hou's mansion.

Time passed, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye. After talking to Pei Yuanlie that day, Shen Liang quietly met with Fu Yunxi within a few days, and told him her decision. Fu Yunxi was a little afraid Believe it, and accept it after repeated confirmation, but he also promised Shen Liang that no matter how his identity changes in the future, he will always be his, as long as he asks him to do it, he will not frown, Regarding this, Shen Liang remained silent, and would only know about the future events later on. All they could guarantee was the present moment.

Since the agreement between him and Fu Yunxi was cancelled, and Fu Yunxi decided to take the scientific examination again, there was no need for them to avoid it, but it was not appropriate for the two to get acquainted rashly. Appreciating Fu Yunxi, knowing that he changed his mind to take the imperial examination, and after his grandson Xie Yan went to him, Lao Ge was very happy, and often invited Fu Yunxi to the mansion. Xie Yan also became familiar.

"Yunxi, this will trouble you."

On this day, as soon as Shen Liang stepped into the shop, he saw Fu Yunxi. He and Xie Yan were huddling together at the table, as if they were doing something. What is the situation?"

"What do you say?"

Yang Tianyu shrugged helplessly, Wei Tan covered his mouth and said in a low voice: "Thank you, please Fu Yunxi to help us write the sponsor's signboard, tsk tsk... I have never seen Xie Yan blushing, I have seen it all today Several times."

"Really."

That being the case, he should be sensible not to disturb others.

Shen Liang turned around and was about to start the consultation, suddenly and strangely said: "You are all here, where is Xiao Zhuozi?"

He can't talk about sponsorship alone, can he?

"I guess I went to the west city."

Yang Tianyu answered casually, and was still looking at a certain person with Wei Tan.

"West City?"

Shen Liang blurted out subconsciously, and then it suddenly occurred to him that the father and son of General Ling and Hou Huaiyang led their troops back to the city today, and they finally guessed why Xiao Zhuozi was gone. How could it be missed?What's more, Jing Xiran returned after making great contributions today, so it is even more impossible for him to miss it.

"Isn't it Liangliang, you don't know that General Ling and the others will return to the imperial palace from the Western Suburb Barracks via the Western City today?"

When the two heard his voice, they all turned their heads and looked at him in disbelief. This matter was a big one, who in the imperial city didn't know about it?

"I know, I just forgot it for the time being."

Leaving a sentence that made people extremely speechless, Shen Liang turned around and left, leaving the mouth corners of Yang Tianyu and Wei Tan twitching at the same time, Liang Liang is definitely the smartest person they have ever met, but the least caring about gossip.

After the heavy rain that lasted for a whole month stopped, General Ling and Marquis Huaiyang did not immediately return to the imperial city to return to their orders. After two months, everything finally came to an end. They returned to the Western Suburb Barracks late last night. After a little settlement, they returned to the Imperial Palace via the West City Gate early this morning.

Without them, this disaster would have been even more serious. The people of the imperial city are all grateful. Tens of thousands of people flocked to the west gate to welcome them early in the morning. The father and son looked a little tired, but they still cheered up and waved to them from time to time when facing the enthusiasm of the common people.

"Jing Shizi..."

On the second floor of an ordinary teahouse in West Outer City, Xiang Zhuo, who had asked for a private room, leaned on the wide open window and stared at the teams approaching from far away. I haven't seen Xiran for three months. Jing Xiran has lost a lot of weight and looks cooler. Although he still smiles like that, Xiang Zhuo feels that he is very tired for no reason.

I don't know if his gaze was too hot, or just a coincidence, Jing Xiran, who was sitting on the horse's back, suddenly raised his head, and the eyes of the two collided abruptly, shouting all day long that he liked Jing Xiran and wanted to marry him Xiang Zhuo immediately confessed and turned his back with a blushing face. He didn't turn around again until the team left downstairs. Unfortunately, all he could see was Jing Xiran's back.

"Is it Xiang Zhuo, Marquis of Lin'an?"

But what he didn't know was that Jing Xiran had already recognized him even with just one glance. After seeing him turn around like a frightened little rabbit, he couldn't help saying his name with a smile on his lips, and stood side by side with him. Ling Yucheng, who was walking, thought he was talking to him, and couldn't help leaning over and asking strangely: "What?"

"It's nothing, General Ling wants to enter the palace together?"

Shaking his head, putting aside the matter of the little rabbit for the time being, Jing Xiran asked casually.

"No, I'll go straight home."

The old emperor was too hypocritical, Ling Yucheng was young and energetic, and he didn't like him. Moreover, he was in a bad mood. As early as in Wangyuecheng, he heard that the emperor gave Shen Jing a marriage. At that time, his heart was about to break. Someone came back to inquire, and found out that it was Shen Jing who took the initiative to climb into the fourth prince's bed, or he was with Shen Qiang. As long as he thought of the scene of the three of them walking together, he couldn't help feeling sick, and his fascination with Shen Jing also dissipated. But after all, she is someone he has liked for so long, she is fine in Wangyue City, but as soon as he returns to the imperial city, his mood starts to turn bad, how can it be suitable to go to the palace to face the saint at this moment?

"This son also has this intention."

The corner of Jing Xiran's mouth dipped into a smile, as long as the old emperor had a father, he was not interested in meddling, anyway, he didn't expect the old emperor to reward them, and he would be Amitabha if he didn't fear them even more.
