[Red Mansion] Marrying a wife like jade

Although Shen Yue didn't know what the eldest prince was thinking, he could feel the change in his eyes looking at him, so he couldn't help but look up at him.This look is as calm as he usually does when he asks questions in class.

The eldest prince suddenly recalled that behind such a calm expression, there are always tricky questions waiting for his brother, and then the ruthless verbal blows, making his brothers feel that they have lived in vain for all these years, and the body is unconsciously beaten. I shivered.

Only then did Shen Yue lower his gaze.But the eldest prince has already missed the best time to show his filial piety to the queen, so he can only listen to Daiyu say to the queen: "Actually, my daughter is not good at needles, but she is kind. Mr. Shen often reminds you not to do these things. Girls show some tricks." She said with a shy smile: "Those girls are really good at embroidering."

The queen nodded after hearing this: "That's fine, why bother to work yourself if you have a girl. Your paintings are also excellent, and the tricks must not be clichéd."

Shen Yue, who can get a piece of handkerchief every year, said that he would not tell the queen that Daiyu's embroidery is not worse than those girls, but it's just that he is not used to doing big jobs.His Yu'er doesn't point to this to eat, so it's great to be able to embroider a handkerchief for herself.

"Both of you go back now." The queen said to the eldest prince with some resentment: "I get angry just looking at you." The eldest prince was so embarrassing.

After exiting Kunning Palace together with Shen Yue, the eldest prince finally felt elated: "My lord Shen, you don't need to be formal in the future, just call me big brother."

Shen Yue's face was still calm, and he even bowed to the eldest prince: "I dare not, I am afraid, I am anxious, the courtesy of a monarch and a minister cannot be abolished, and I dare not be disrespectful to attract people's opinions."

"You—" the eldest prince pointed at Shen Yue, wanting to ask him if he was shameless.Thinking of the words conveyed by the eldest concubine to the queen, even if Daiyu recognized the queen's knees, she and Shen Yue were bound together, but she still had to let Shen Yue help her willingly.Otherwise, let Xu Shu enter Cao Ying for himself - if he doesn't say a word, or doesn't work hard, Daiyu's righteous sister will be recognized in vain.

Weakly withdrew his finger, the eldest prince quietly looked around and said to Shen Yue in a low voice: "Do you know that no matter what you think from now on, we are all one in the eyes of others."

Shen Yue glanced at the eldest prince like a fool: "The sage is the best in the spring and autumn, the eldest prince only needs to do his duty as a son, and the minister should also do his duty as a minister. In this way, the eldest prince and I are both saints." If you are loyal, you will naturally be one."

The eldest prince was taken aback by Shen Yue's words. As the eldest son of today, the empress was born in the first place, and he knew the truth that even the stones on the ground in this deep palace can talk, so he bowed to Shen Yue as a thank you, and asked: "My little one Master Shen is still going back to the Ministry of Industry, or is he going to the study?"

Shen Yue was satisfied with the eldest prince in his heart, this cheap uncle was quite clear, he wasn't the kind of person who would just stand behind me and call hello, hello, hello everyone, and shout for beating and killing if he didn't directly state his position.This is good, only such a person can go far and steadily.

His salute to the First Prince was much more formal: "I am going to check on the progress of fellow readers."

The Eldest Prince nodded after hearing this, and talked to Shen Yue with emotion along the way: "Master Shen Shen is very good at drawing, and the imperial grandfather often went to the palace to make paintings when he was in Japan, but now it is hard to find a painting." .”

"The eldest grandson of the emperor is cute. Maybe after the eldest prince returns to the mansion, he will see the portrait of the eldest grandson of the emperor."

"Yuan'er?" The eldest prince asked in puzzlement: "But will Master Xiao Shen want to paint Yuan'er for a while? Just now I saw that Master Xiao Shen didn't look at Yuan'er for a few moments, and he was able to draw a portrait. I'm looking forward to it." gone."

Shen Yue didn't answer the eldest prince's words, but asked instead: "Is the eldest prince named the eldest grandson?"

The eldest prince shook his head after hearing this: "Father took it. Yuan'er is my father's first grandson. How could it be my turn to name it." If the words were regretful, a little pride could still be heard in the words.

"It's indeed a good name." Shen Yue smiled: "Deep and broad is the deep, and broad and profound is the deep. The saint has great expectations for the eldest grandson of the emperor." After speaking, he glanced at the eldest prince and continued walking towards the upper study.

The eldest prince thought for a while, he didn't even dare to show joy on his face, and decided to take the eldest grandson of the emperor to the outer courtyard to teach himself after returning to the mansion.It's no wonder that the emperor respected this little Lord Shen so much, he was indeed a resourceful man with a strong heart.It seems that the concubine should be instructed to treat her righteous sister better.

He tentatively asked Shen Yue, "I don't know if Yuan'er is lucky enough to worship under Master Xiao Shen?"

Shen Yue directly shook his head like a rattle: "It's not right, I'm so old, I don't have to delay the eldest grandson of the emperor." Seeing that the eldest prince still wanted to persuade him, Shen Yue smiled maliciously: "Speaking of which, the eldest grandson of the emperor is the same as me." Mister has some predestined relationship, how about the eldest prince ask the saint for instructions?"

Seeing that the eldest prince's face suddenly became extremely ugly - Daiyu is now considered the aunt of the eldest grandson of the emperor, and Lin Ruhai is Daiyu's biological father, so he would not be able to deal with this matter just by his seniority.His expression turned ugly again: "I don't know what fate Yuan'er has with Lin Shangshu."

But Shen Yue ignored him, Shi Shiran had already entered the upper study.The eldest prince had no choice but to follow behind him with a stinky face. In the eyes of others, wouldn't it be that the two of them were dirty?Several princes breathed a sigh of relief: So what if the queen recognized Shen Yue's fiancée as a foster daughter?This woman can't control men's affairs outside, let alone a woman who has never been married.

As a result, Shen Yue received many admiring looks, while the First Prince only received pity.For such a result, the eldest prince did not care about it, and in the eyes of others, he was just pretending to be calm, and he became more eager to get close to Shen Yue.

Shen Yue never refused to come, and had a great chat with all the princes, and even answered the questions of the six, seven, and nine princes one by one, and promised them to take them to his hometown when they were resting and taking a bath. Chuang Tzu looks at the autumn harvest.

Now who doesn't know that Shen Yue's village produces some amazing crops?It was heard that he was going to bring six, seven, and nine people there, but the other princes quit: "Master Xiao Shen, why is he being more generous than others? We are all students of Master Xiao Shen, so if we go, we should go together."

"The princes are delicate and expensive, and the Zhuangzi is not as idyllic as you think. The six, seven, and nine three princes can endure hard work, and they want to accompany the tenants to harvest the autumn harvest together with the ministers."

The remaining princes expressed their determination one after another, saying that they had worked hard and worked hard, and they must go to see it.Shen Yue said indifferently: "Even the three princes have to ask for the emperor's order to travel together. If the princes go together, how will the safety be guaranteed? I really have no idea."

The princes discussed for a while, and decided to see the present together after resting their minds today, and asked him to allow him to go to the autumn harvest with Shen Yue, and send someone to protect themselves along the way.Today, the princes are actually pragmatic and happy to see their success, and after telling them to ask Shen Yue and the peasants for advice, they specially ordered Xiang Ming to command the soldiers and horses of the five cities, and asked him to ensure the safety of the princes. The whereabouts of the princes must not be exposed.

Not to mention Xiang Ming's embarrassment, Shen Yue went directly to Zhong'anhou's mansion after he left the Yamen, and asked his disciple Daiyu that he had already returned to the mansion with Jia Min, so he was relieved and went to Lin Ruhai's study to see Mr.

Not to mention that Lin Ruhai didn't have a good face when he saw him, even Brother Kuan felt that Shen Yue had caused him to be robbed of his sister, so he reluctantly bowed to Shen Yue, and then stood upright beside Lin Ruhai's chair, motionless, and complained with his eyes from time to time. Shen Yue.

Shen Yue, whose face was so impenetrable, turned a blind eye to Brother Kuan's eyes, and reported to Lin Ruhai what he said to the eldest prince today: "Fortunately, I can still listen to people's words and communicate with each other."

After hearing this, Lin Ruhai looked at Brother Kuan: "Do you understand?"

Brother Kuan's face was blank: "Senior brother clearly rejected the eldest prince's overtures, so why do you say you can associate with him now?"

Sure enough, it was still small.Lin Ruhai motioned for Shen Yue to explain to him with his eyes.Shen Yue didn't hide his secrets: "Only the sage doesn't want to know about the affairs in the palace, there is nothing he doesn't know. Even if you enter the palace in the future, you should be cautious in your words and deeds, and you can't just say nothing when you feel that no one is around."

Seeing Brother Kuan opening his mouth to argue, Shen Yue's face became a little heavy, Brother Kuan quickly covered his mouth with his hands, expressing that he would not talk much, Shen Yue then continued: "Let's not mention Jin Yiwei, the secret guard and I are Mr. I have seen them all, can you know where they are hiding, have you heard what you said?"

Shen Yue intentionally spoke more emphatically, in order to avenge Brother Kuan's contempt for him just now: "You think you are just a scholar now, so you don't have to worry about entering the palace? Don't forget that Mister still has a Marquis of Zhongan now." You are the only man under your knees, you are the son, and you will have a part in the palace banquet when a decree comes down. At that time, if you are not careful with your words and deeds, will you cause trouble for your husband?"

"The eldest prince thought that your sister was under the queen's knee, so our two houses were tied together with him, but he didn't think that the sage was in the prime of his spring and autumn and wanted to make great achievements. How could he want to see his son form a clique to plot big things now?" A person? What I offered has too much to do with it, and the sage suddenly recognized your elder sister as the empress's knee, so why didn't he want to test whether the Lin and Shen families are loyal to him or are they trying to win the merits of the dragon?"

"So at this time, we need to be more steady, and we must also persuade the First Prince to be steady." In the end, Shen Yue almost said every word, so that Brother Kuan could understand what he meant before remembering it.

Brother Kuan saw that his father kept nodding, obviously agreeing with Shen Yue's intention, so he also nodded heavily.Even Lin Ruhai didn't care about Shen Yue's harsh words to his son - it was his duty to be the elder brother's mentor brother, and Lin Ruhai would never lose Shen Yue's face on this.

After finishing the business, Shen Yue salivated again: "Sir, have you discussed with the teacher's wife, how much dowry to give to Yu'er? Let me tell you that the teacher's wife is very tired after entering the palace today, so we can discuss it later. I just don't know." Has Yu'er been wronged today?"

Lin Ruhai and Brother Kuan looked away, Brother Kuan poured tea for his father with a wink, and let Shen Yue hang there together.Shen Yue was not annoyed, and said to Lin Ruhai with a smile, "I'll go pay my respects to my teacher." He left the study without looking back.

Before taking two steps, he heard the sound of footsteps behind him, and Shen Yue asked without turning his head, "Why are you following me again?"

Brother Kuan's frustrated voice came: "Brother Ai, I heard that the eldest princess is very kind to my sister and has given her a lot of good things, will my sister understand?"

Shen Yue couldn't hold back, turned around and tapped the kid on the head: "What kind of shallow-sighted person is your sister?"

A coquettish shout also came from the second door: "Brother Kuan, double the number of characters today." Looking closer, if it's not Daiyu, who is it?

Brother Kuan didn't dare to refute his sister, so he pulled Shen Yue's sleeve with a bitter face.Would Shen Yue still refute Daiyu's reply?Zi Shi easily pulled out his sleeves, smiled at Daiyu and said, "Although it's not winter, after all the autumn wind is cold, you should stay indoors at this time."

Daiyu glanced at him: "I know that brother Ai must be worried, and he just came here." Shen Yue shook her hand and said displeasedly: "Hands are so cold, and they said they just came here. If you are lazy, why don't you add more clothes to the girl?"

Xueyan grumbled at the side, and complained softly to Daiyu: "The servant said to let the girl wear a cloak, but the girl was anxious and refused, so the servant was scolded instead." The voice became lower and lower as Shen Yue looked over. In the end, she almost hid behind Daiyu.

Daiyu explained as she walked along with Shen Yue: "I didn't feel cold, it's just that the distance I walked was a bit longer." Then she quietly apologized to Xueyan with her eyes.Shen Yue didn't care about their eyebrows and lawsuits, Xueyan didn't even dare to show her anger, she begged and waved to Daiyu repeatedly, so that she could talk to Shen Yue, otherwise she would be scolded even more.

Brother Kuan looked ridiculous. These big girls of my sister always supervised her studies for her, especially this Xueyan, who even quarreled with each other. revenge.

After a few steps, they arrived at the main room. Jia Min was leaning on the couch. Seeing Shen Yue coming in and sitting upright, Shen Yue asked her to rest freely while saluting.Jia Min laughed and said, "The lottery Yu'er and I won today is all thanks to you, so I should thank you."

How could Shen Yue dare to respond? I heard that the lords and concubines of the palaces all gave generous gifts. The empress and the eldest concubine later brought Jia Min and Daiyu to visit the empress dowager. The empress dowager was very fond of Shen Yue and Daiyu Looking forward to it, he smiled at Daiyu and said, "Is the grandson of the emperor pestering Yu'er again?"

Daiyu was also amused when she thought of that fat boy: "The eldest grandson of the emperor is very lively and funny, but he has a different temperament from Brother Shen."

Brother Shen is the eldest son of Shen Chao, and he is very familiar with Daiyu, so Daiyu uses him as a comparison.Shen Yue smiled indifferently: "Brother Shen has always been taught by the grandfather, so he is naturally older than other children."

Jia Min didn't have any worries: "The Empress Dowager and the Empress both said that they wanted Daiyu to stay in the palace for two days. Although they asked me to discuss it with your husband, how could they refuse?"

Shen Yue frowned after hearing this, those two are the most honorable women in the empire, Lin Ruhai is just a courtier, how can he say that his daughter is not allowed to go?He had no choice but to comfort Jia Min and said: "Now that Yu'er has a different identity from before, and there are empress dowagers and empresses, those concubines dare not make things difficult for her. At that time, she will only come and go in Kunning Palace, and not interact with others."

Dai Yu heard something from the First Prince's Concubine: "I heard from the First Prince's Concubine that Gu Shangshu's granddaughter has entered the Second Prince's Mansion, brother Ai, have you heard of it?"

The second prince's biological mother is concubine Shu, who was a side concubine before he came to the throne, and now the positions of noble concubine and virtuous concubine are vacant, concubine Shu is like the No. 1 queen.At any rate, Shen Yue also taught the princes that he still knew the status of which prince's biological mother.

Shen Yue also heard about the fact that the granddaughter of the Gu family entered the second prince's mansion.Since I didn't see Gu Shangshu's family having a banquet, I didn't inquire about it carefully.Now that Daiyu said it on purpose, she knew that there must be a story in the middle, and asked: "I vaguely heard something. Gu Shangshu has a city mansion, and he is still cautious in his actions. Is it Yu'er who thinks there's something wrong?"

After Daiyu married Mu Wan into the Gu family, she gradually lost contact with the sisters in her boudoir, Gu Qingwan seemed to have some opinions for herself: "If she married into another family, it would be over if she just met and ignored her. If I enter the palace now, I'm afraid I'll be embarrassed." It's a pity that she is also Zhong Lingyuxiu's daughter, and instead of being a regular wife, she goes to the Prince's Mansion as a concubine. Low and small.

Shen Yue's heart moved, and he blamed Daiyu: "Why didn't you say this earlier, if you said it, she would still want to enter the prince's mansion? Don't worry, it's just a concubine, even if Concubine Shu wants to see her daughter-in-law, she won't be able to go to her. Even if we meet, you are the young lady of the Hou Mansion, the empress' adopted daughter, and she is the bastard and side concubine, so I shouldn't be against you if you are smarter."

Daiyu shook her head and said: "I'm not afraid of being difficult, but I'm afraid that she will use Sister Mu to get close. If I ignore it, someone will say that the status is different now and they have forgotten the friendship in the past. If you have more contacts with her, the second prince and concubine will not be good. explain."

Hearing her embarrassment, Shen Yue blamed himself deeply in his heart. If it wasn't for his dedication, he wouldn't have forced the queen to recognize Daiyu as a righteous daughter, and she could still be her carefree in the Hou's mansion. Big girl.But now I have to worry about these human relationships: "It's all my fault. When I talk to the eldest prince, please take care of the eldest princess. That is your real sister-in-law. If she doesn't protect your sister-in-law, it means she doesn't care." Should."

Daiyu made him say so that his face became hot: "The eldest prince, Brother Ai, don't get too close."

Such intimate concern made the smile on Shen Yue's face even bigger, even after returning to Shen's residence, it didn't disappear.Mrs. Fang knew that he had gone to the Lin family as soon as he saw him, and laughed at him: "Everyone knows that you are crazy about wanting to marry a wife, so please keep some for me. I heard that the grandfather is not allowed to use everyone in the family, and the old lady persuaded him I also begged, but it is useless. If we say that we can afford the money ourselves, it is not good-looking."

Shen Yue knew that Xueshi Shen was actually doing it for today's audience, but he couldn't explain it to Fang Shi, so he wanted to ease her heart, and after telling Fang Shi what he heard from Jia Min and the two of them, he asked with a smile : "Ma'am, listen, is Yu'er coping with it decently?"

My daughter-in-law is valued by the queen mother and queen, and she is not named a princess. In the future, she will still be filial in front of her eyes, and she does not have to bow to a junior. Fang is naturally 120 satisfied: "It is always good for Yuer to have rules. , and with such a character and appearance, who can not love it. Even though Yuer's status is getting higher and higher now, although your aunt didn't say anything, your sister-in-law is probably worried."

There is no solution to this problem: Even if the queen does not recognize her righteous daughter, Lin Ruhai herself has the title of Marquis of Zhongan, and has the real power of the Ministry of Household Affairs, so although Li Yuanzheng is respected, the Li family has long been in trouble Daiyu turned her head.

"If I'm a sister-in-law, I can think about it myself. The family chose her to be the clan wife. She has her merits. The most important thing is her character, not her natal family. Otherwise, even if the elder brother doesn't want to be the princess, which bachelor will not be able to do it?" Do you not want to get married with our family?" Shen Yue felt that no one could persuade this matter, only Mrs. Li wanted to make a way.

Fang looked at his son helplessly, thinking that Li's nephew and daughter-in-law are always separated from each other, and he has two sons, this daughter-in-law looks like the troublesome one.Alas, the eldest son is too promising, and the eldest son's daughter-in-law is too outstanding, which is also a troublesome thing.

Seeing that she was silent, Shen Yue quickly changed the subject: "Brother Xun and Brother Fen, why didn't they know to come to say hello to my wife?"

"I don't even look at what time it is. If they don't study, you have something to say." Fang blamed the eldest son on the face, and was very satisfied with his heart of always urging his brothers.Shen Yue just wanted to talk to her, seeing that she was in a good mood, he wanted to make Mrs. Fang happy: "Master came back late today, I remember bringing snacks for my wife every day?"

Hearing his son's jokes, Fang could not close his mouth from ear to ear, asked the girl to bring some snacks, and after pushing them to his son, he said: "Isn't this the snack brought back by the master?" Ever since he complained to the master that his son treats his wife sincerely, Somehow, the master was enlightened, and whenever he came back from outside, he would bring some snacks or new playthings, and even his sister-in-law laughed at himself a few times.

After Shen Yue ate a snack, he realized that Shen Ren had gone to Xueshi Shen's study, so he resigned from Mrs. Fang, greeted the old lady, thanked the old man for interceding with Xueshi Shen on his behalf, and then went to the outer study to greet Xueshi Shen .

Brothers Shen Xin and Shen Chao were both in the study, Xueshi Shen saw Shen Yue approaching, and said with a smile: "Have you discussed it with your husband?"

After Shen Yue responded, he asked Shen Xueshi: "Today, I found a business for my husband, but I haven't dared to tell him. If the teacher punishes me then, Grandpa will beg for mercy for me anyway."

Shen Ren had already grinned: "What are you so narrow about? Be careful that your husband really hits you." The son finally knew that instead of cheating on me, Shen Ren felt satisfied.

Shen Xueshi has always been a strict father, and he is very dissatisfied with his second son who always talks casually with his grandson: "As a student, you should do your best when you have something to do. If you want to find something for him, you should ask the family law to teach him what is respect." The teacher remarked."

Shen Ren flinched from what his father said, and Shen Yue felt that his father was usually tricked by his son and scolded by his father, and it was really not easy to be caught in the middle.Smiling to Xueshi Shen, he said: "Master, write down the beating of grandson first, and then say whether he will be beating or not after listening." Then he asked the eldest prince to ask the sage, and ordered Lin Ruhai to do the work of the emperor's eldest grandson.

Shen Xueshi couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it. Shen Yue is really not suitable to be the emperor's grandson's husband. Could it be that Lin Ruhai is convenient?The old man slapped the table and said, "If you mess around, your husband should punish you. No matter how old your husband is, the eldest grandson of the emperor is too early to be enlightened. What fate do they have?"

Shen Yue faced Xueshi Shen's angry eyes and said: "Mr.'s name coincides with the name of the emperor's eldest grandson. Isn't it fate?"

Like an ocean like an abyss!

Xueshi Shen was startled in his heart: "You mean?"
