Xiaoquanzi must have scolded the person who said this, despising his short-sightedness.
Although Duke Shi's mansion seems to be in extremely bad shape recently, when will the world turn around
Aren’t they on their feet again now
Besides, where is the wealth of the Shi family? Even if Shi Junhe has not been promoted, he is still willing to please you, the great hero in the eyes of the people!
"This is what Eunuch Quan deserves. Eunuch Quan is doing errands for the emperor. I must not wrong you!" Shi Junhe insisted on giving the purse to Xiaoquanzi, who shrugged it off meaningfully and accepted it with a smile.
At the same time, the smile on his face became even brighter, "Then I would like to thank the general for the reward."
"Eunuch Quan, you don't have to be polite. I wonder if your Majesty has anything to say after these two imperial edicts were handed down?" Shi Junhe asked pretending to be casual.
Xiaoquanzi did not doubt that he was there, and said directly: "No. The emperor is very much in favor..."
Before he finished speaking, Koizumi suddenly reacted and covered his mouth.
His face showed panic.
"What's wrong?" Shi Junhe also became nervous and asked anxiously.
But Koizumi refused to say any more no matter what, and instead talked about him, "Now, General, you can be regarded as a double happiness, and you are envious of others!
Come on, I won’t interrupt your celebration and will go back to the palace to resume my duties. "
After saying this, regardless of Shi Junhe's attempts to stay, he left Shi's Mansion in a hurry as if there was a ghost chasing him behind him.
Are the signs even more suspicious
What exactly did Koizumi want to say just now
Shi Junhe touched his chin thoughtfully, and even the joy of being promoted to a first-rank official was diluted a lot.
As for the other people in the room, they were not as far-sighted as Shi Junhe. They were all stunned by the two pieces of good news in succession!
Especially the people with second and third bedrooms, who just secretly gloated about Shi Junhe being ordered to suspend his duties. How long has it been since he was reinstated
Oh, it’s not just that the official was reinstated, but that he was promoted to another level. It’s just incredible luck!
But what is a little different from the purely sour grape mentality of the third room is that the second room is about to have a 'prince concubine'. Even if Shi Baojing is just a concubine, the second wife Zhang Qiuyan is also happy to be her daughter. Like a princess.
With a smile on his face, he took Shi Baojing's hand and said affectionately: "We Jing'er are really lucky to have caught the attention of the Tian family. If you become successful in the future, don't forget your mother and your younger brothers and sisters. ah!"
Shi Baojing had lived for almost twenty years and had never enjoyed such 'kind' treatment from her aunt, but she was disgusted.
But there were so many pairs of eyes watching, and even though she knew she was acting, she had to accompany her, and she had to reply with more respect and affection than Zhang Qiuyan: "Bao Jing was raised by her father and mother, how dare she forget her roots?"
Zhang Qiuyan thought that Shi Baojing was just a soft persimmon and could be manipulated by her. She casually said a few words to make the situation more interesting, and she really felt that she had pulled the person over. Her greedy thoughts came to life, and she actually started to inquire about the second prince Mo Junwen. "I heard that the Second Highness was raised in the name of Concubine Tao Fei. Concubine Tao Concubine is famous for her rich wealth and wide connections. You are the one who was given the marriage by the emperor. In the future, this betrothal gift will definitely be indispensable. You can't keep it for yourself when the time comes. Already…”
"What are you talking about!" Shi Junfeng scolded, trying to stop Zhang Qiuyan from being embarrassed.
As soon as the imperial edict came down, Zhang Qiuyan, as Shi Baojing's legitimate mother, began to worry about the betrothal gifts, and she never mentioned how much dowry she would give. If this was spread, she would not be scolded to death.
Although Shi Junfeng didn't pay much attention to the concubine Bao Jing on weekdays, he was still very happy to hear that his daughter had a good home. He said a few words of encouragement seriously and said goodbye to Shi Junhe. Congratulations, and quickly led the second room and his family away from the hall, a place of right and wrong.
What a joke, if he doesn't leave, the trouble will be with him. As soon as the people in the second room left, a large space suddenly became vacant in the hall.
The remaining people were silent for a while. Everyone had different expressions on their faces and had their own thoughts, but they all remained silent in a tacit understanding.
In other words, he didn't dare to speak, so he glanced at Mo Shujun with his eyes, waiting to see her reaction.
Although double happiness was a great thing, Mo Shujun's face was not very good at this time. She stared straight at Shi Junhe with her eyes, and the latter also looked back calmly.
After a long stalemate, Mo Shujun suddenly clapped her hands and praised: "He'er, you are so good! You solved all the troubles without saying a word!"
Shi Junhe seemed not to hear the irony in Mo Shujun's words, and nodded towards Mo Shujun and said gently: "I hope this result will not disappoint my mother."
Is Mo Shujun disappointed
Of course not, after all, the Shi family's reputation and status have been preserved.
Just as they had imagined before, the Shi family was not divided, and the effect of any lady marrying into the royal family might not be too far off.
But the problem is that they are preparing to complete the marriage on their own side first, so that the Shi family can legitimately become the party of the four princes, and Shi Junhe can owe them a favor.
Who would have thought that before they officially launched the operation, Shi Junhe finished the matter in silence.
Let all their plans fail.
It became a joke.
Even if it was a good thing, Mo Shujun was not happy at all at this time.
She even vaguely felt that Shi Junhe was deliberately going against her!
Otherwise, it would be impossible for her as an elder to not know about such a big thing as Shi Baojing marrying Mo Junwen in advance, or even not see the signs.
It was obviously Shi Junhe who deliberately deceived her in order to retaliate for her previous persecution!
Thinking of this, Mo Shujun didn't have a good face for Shi Junhe. She flicked her sleeves and left the hall directly.
"Tsk, brother is really good at making my mother so angry!" Shi Juncai said in a cool tone.
Shi Junhe glanced sideways at Shi Juncai and asked coldly: "What? Do you have anything to teach me?"
"Brother..." Shi Juncai also wanted to sarcastically say, "Shi Junhe will not recognize his mother after being promoted", but he was given a cold look by the other party and was instantly discouraged.
Not to mention the taunting and taunting mode like when facing Zhou Ruyu, when Shi Juncai really faced Shi Junhe, there was only one word "coward" left in his body.
He quickly said flatteringly: "No, I just want to congratulate my eldest brother on his reinstatement. Congratulations, congratulations..."
The appearance of this dog's legs is simply too horrible to look at.
Shi Junhe was well aware of his brother's virtues and was too lazy to say anything. He just nodded and took Qingxue and the others back to Dongyuan.
Shi Juncai was so irritated by Shi Junhe's "condescending" attitude that as soon as he left, he took a fierce 'pooh' at the floor and cursed: "What's the air? Isn't it just a check? His Highness the Fourth Prince still You promised to let me upgrade two levels in a row! Just wait for me! Sooner or later, I will let everyone know that you are not as good as me!"
——
Shi Junhe was promoted to a higher official rank and the crisis of genocide of the Shi family was successfully solved. It was a great joy.
However, he did not feel reassured.
After returning to Dongyuan, when faced with Shi Baoning's delighted questions, he looked nonchalant and answered word by word.
"Father, this time you are reinstated, does that mean that His Majesty will no longer doubt the loyalty of our family? Is Brother Chi okay? And..." Shi Baoning had a lot of questions to ask Shi Junhe. of.
But when she spoke out bit by bit, she realized that Shi Junhe didn't listen to her question seriously at all.
He couldn't help but shout in an amplified tone, "Daddy!"
"What?" Shi Junhe suddenly pulled his head out of his thoughts and looked at Shi Baoning doubtfully.
Shi Baoning sighed and spoke again: "I mean..." As a result, she just opened her mouth this time, and Shi Junhe had already waved his hand to signal her to stop talking. He turned to Shi Qingxue, who was quietly drinking tea beside him, and asked. : "Qingxue, is Mo Shizi in Prince Rui's Mansion now?"
When Shi Qingxue was suddenly called, she was so frightened that she choked on her tea, "Ahem... Daddy, what are you talking about?"
As she wiped the water marks from the corners of her mouth, she looked at Shi Junhe in surprise, wondering how her father could ask her such a question.
It was as if she was Mo Junyang's 'housekeeper'.
Shi Junhe's mind was completely focused on the two imperial edicts of 'as he wished', and he didn't even notice how ambiguous his question was.
Seeing Qingxue hesitating, he felt agitated, so he simply stood up and told Shi Jie outside: "Shi Jie, prepare the car."
"Yes!" Shi Jie quickly responded and ran down to prepare.
Shi Junhe walked into the back room, changed into casual clothes, and was about to go out.
Shi Qingxue was startled by his impetuous actions and hurriedly caught up, "Dad, what's wrong with you? Isn't it a good thing that the imperial edict has been issued? Why are you more restless than before?"
"This matter is not that simple. You wait at home and I will tell you after I figure it out."
After that, Shi Junhe left the mansion directly, and his destination was Prince Rui's mansion.
Shi Qingxue sighed helplessly, turned around and was about to chat and joke with Shi Baoning, when she met Shi Baoning's cold and complicated eyes.
"Big sister?" Shi Qingxue was startled, and then looked at her carefully.
Shi Baoning returned to his usual gentleness and calmness, as if what Shi Qingxue saw just now was just her illusion.
"What's wrong?" Shi Baoning looked calm and had a smile on his face, without any clues.
Shi Qingxue shook her head, feeling that she must be too worried, but still asked uneasily: "Are you unhappy?"
"How could it be? Now that dad is fine, the second sister has found a good home again. How could I be unhappy? What are you thinking about, sixth sister?" Shi Baoning smiled even brighter.
But the more this happened, the weird feeling in Shi Qingxue's heart became stronger.
However, Shi Baoning didn't give her time to explore. He smiled and said calmly: "Okay, since dad only asked you to wait for him to come back, I won't bother you and go back to Jingshu Pavilion first."
"Hey, eldest sister..." Shi Qingxue wondered when Shi Junhe told her to just wait for him to come back? What Shi Junhe said just now was basically said to their sisters together.
Is Shi Baoning thinking too much
Shi Qingxue pursed her lips speechlessly, but Shi Baoning left so quickly that she didn't even have a chance to explain.
"Sister, what's wrong? Does it feel weird?" Shi Qingxue muttered to herself, confused.
In fact, she had sensed Shi Baoning's strange and inexplicable hostility towards her a long time ago. It was very slight, but it was always there.
She thought it was her illusion at first, but after so many years of accumulation, she knew it wasn't!
Shi Baoning is indeed hostile to her now, but why
Shi Qingxue was so depressed that she wanted to pull her hair out.
If it were a sister, any woman with a second or third bedroom would be fine, even Shi Baojing, whom she admired. No matter how the other party treats her, she can change him back with the same attitude.
But Shi Baoning is different!
Shi Baoning is her sister, how can she be indifferent to him.
Even if his attitude becomes cold occasionally, it's just out of anger, and he will go back to try to please him again after a while.
But when Shi Baoning came to Shi Baoning, her indomitable trickery with others was just a weak point, which made Shi Qingxue very depressed.
"How about talking to the elder brother? If the elder sister listens to the words of the elder brother, there must be no problem."
The stubborn Shi Qingxue still hasn't figured out the source of Shi Baoning's jealousy, but instead stepped on the minefield accurately.
It’s hard to say what will happen in the future!
