Huai Sheng opened the door of the house, as soon as he entered the door, an extremely strong smell of alcohol rushed towards his face, Shen Miao could not help frowning slightly even though she was wearing a face towel. Seeing Shen Miao frowning, Huai Sheng also seemed a little embarrassed, he trotted and took out a diesel lamp from the other end and found a fire stick to light it.
The lights flickered and lit, making everything in the room a little brighter, and there was a middle-aged man lying on the bed. The man was very thin and his skin was sallow. Snoring.
Huaisheng looked at the two in front of him nervously, and the woman said, "Wake him up."
Huaisheng nodded, walked over to the man, shook the man's arm gently, and whispered, "Dad, Daddy, someone is here."
The man didn't react at first, and seemed to be a little annoyed by the shaking of Huaisheng. He slapped him subconsciously, and scolded: "What are you crying for in the middle of the night?"
Huaisheng closed his eyes instinctively, but he didn't wait for the slap to come down. He opened his eyes carefully, but what he saw was his father's fearful gaze, and he followed his gaze. The beautiful young man who had been staring coldly and didn't care much had arrived in front of him at some point, and his slender hand was holding the man's throat.
"Xian, Xianren!" Huaisheng was anxious, scared and worried, but in the end he held back his fear and said, "My father didn't mean to offend you! Please spare his life!"
Shen Miao glanced at the man who was so frightened that she was instantly drowsy and then calmly said, "Let him go."
Xie Jing Xing then let go.
Huaisheng was a little scared.
His father knelt on the ground and looked at the two people in front of him, his body trembling uncontrollably, probably because he instinctively sensed the dangerous aura on the other side, especially the seemingly beautiful man.
Shen Miao said, "You are Tian Li?"
Tian Li nodded and said, "It's the little one."
Shen Miao glanced at Tian Li, it was rumored that when he was in Liuzhou, Tian Li was also a handsome and dashing scholar with great talent, only then would he win Chang Zaiqing's heart and the two became a couple. It was only after repeatedly failing in the imperial examinations that he gradually developed a feeling of self-loathing. He simply lingered in casinos and restaurants, drinking and gambling for money. Chang Zaiqing hated such days before leaving home. Looking at Tian Li's appearance now, he can understand a little why Chang Zaiqing left home. Tian Li couldn't see a bit of the suave demeanor from before, and the man in front of him was clearly a frustrated and down-to-earth man.
“Is Chang Zaiqing your wife?” Shen Miao asked.
Hearing this, Tian Li's body trembled suddenly and raised his head to look at Shen Miao. Even though he tried his best to hide it, Shen Miao could still see the anger and humiliation in his eyes.
“Don’t worry, I am not Chang Zaiqing’s friend, if you have any ideas, it’s okay to say it.” Shen Miao said.
Tian Li took a serious look at Shen Miao again, as if to confirm whether what Shen Miao said was true. Shen Miao looked at him openly and after a long while, Tian Li spit on the ground and said, "That lowly mother-in-law ran away with my money! Shameless!"
Huaisheng flinched, his eyes a little sad.
Shen Miao's eyes fell on Huai Sheng and said, "Huai Sheng, you go to the courtyard, your father and I have something to say."
Huai Sheng glanced at Shen Miao and then at Tian Li, but in the end he didn't say anything and took a blanket and went out silently.
After Huaisheng went out, Shen Miao asked Tian Li to explain the ins and outs.
It was similar to what Shen Miao sent to find out that Chang Zaiqing's husband was Tian Li. Tian Li and Chang Zaiqing got married at the beginning, which is a good story. Chang Zaiqing is a talented girl from Liuzhou, Tian Li is also a talented scholar, and Tian Li's family also has several shops. Little Rich's House.
It's just that the Tian family was selected for business, and the storefront was mortgaged. The Tian family and his wife couldn't bear the blow and died one after another. Tian Li was also affected by it. At that time, Chang Zaiqing was already pregnant and gave birth to Huaisheng, so there were more places to spend money. The poor and lowly husband and wife grieve for everything. The two quarrel constantly. Tian Li falls in love with alcoholism and gambling for money. Chang Zaiqing dislikes that this is not the life she wants to live, so one day, she sells the last remaining land deed in the house for money and runs away. .
Tian Li had also been searched for, but Chang Zaiqing's whereabouts could not be found anywhere. Tian Li didn't know about the friendship between Chang Hu and General Shen, so he didn't know that Chang Zaiqing came to Ding capital.
Tian Li was still gnashing his teeth when talking about Chang Zaiqinglai, he said: "This snake and scorpion poisonous woman! The land deed is reserved for Huaisheng to marry a daughter-in-law when Huaisheng grows up, and she even sells it and takes it away. She doesn't even have Huaisheng in her heart, she's a bitch!"
Shen Miao lowered her eyes, Xie Jing Xing stood on the other side with her chest folded and looked out the window, as if she was not interested in what Tian Li said in the room. However, he just stood here casually, and it was impossible to ignore the chilling aura.
At the end, Tian Li asked, "Someone said that the two of us were brought here, so that we can see the mother-in-law. This lady, the one who brought us to Dingjing... but you?" Tian Li could see at a glance that the two were only Afraid that his identity is unusual, especially that man, how can ordinary people have such a bearing? Besides, breaking into a house privately at midnight, with such arrogance, ordinary people do not have the courage to do so.
“It’s me.” Shen Miao said, “I know where Chang Zaiqing is.”
Tian Li was stunned for a moment. When he spoke again, his voice trembled a little. He asked, "Where is she...?"
Shen Miao frowned slightly, in Tian Li's voice, apart from anger, there was even a trace of longing. Perhaps it was because Chang Zaiqing had been married to him for many years before, or perhaps it was because Chang Zaiqing was Huai Sheng's mother after all, this Tian Li was probably not as powerful as he said, but he still had a little bit of love for Chang Zaiqing. Soft-hearted.
This was not what Shen Miao was happy to see.
She said, "Chang Zaiqing is now in the former mighty general Shen's residence in the Ding capital, and has become the concubine of Shen Wan, the third master of the Shen residence. Now that she is pregnant, Shen Wan treats her very well, and she is loved by thousands of people. , I think it won't be long before I come here to give birth to Shen Wan's direct son. There are no other children in Shen Wan's house. Once the child is born, maybe Chang Zaiqing will be righted, or if he will not be righted, that child will also live a glorious life. ."
Tian Li's expression became wonderful. The anger that seemed to be wearing a green hat, and the humiliation and unwillingness, all disturbed the complicated entanglements, and that little bit of soft-heartedness disappeared after Shen Miao's remarks.
The children born by Chang Zaiqing can live a life of wealth and wealth. On the other hand, Huaisheng, even the only land deed to marry his daughter-in-law in the future was sold, and nothing was left. Years later, the two are also Chang Zaiqing's belly. Children who climbed out of it, life is very different. What people are most afraid of is comparison, Tian Li's heart will not be reconciled no matter what.
Shen Miao smiled slightly: "Not only that, Master Shen San divorced his hair-wielding husband and wife for Chang Zaiqing's sake and went to court with his hair-wielding husband and wife. Thinking about it, he really doted on Chang Zaiqing. Now, the original third Mrs. Shen is down. It's really pitiful to become a rat crossing the street and everyone shouting."
Tian Li sneered: "This third master Shen is also a brainless man!" For Shen Wan, Tian Li also has no good feelings for him, and his hatred for taking his wife is undeniable. hostile. In particular, Chang Zaiqing always showed his longing for wealth in front of Tian Li, and Tian Li was even more resentful towards Shen Wan.
“To be honest, I was entrusted by the third lady Shen.” Shen Miao said, “The third lady Shen was forced to retreat by the third master Shen and Chang Zaiqing, but there is no way to do it now. The third lady is planning to The fish died and the net was broken, just to make it difficult for Master Shen San and Chang Zaiqing, so I found you."
“Me?” Tian Li looked at Shen Miao and gradually realized something in his heart, and said, “Your Excellency means…”
"Explain to Third Master Shen at the right time that Chang Zaiqing is your wife. Let Third Master Shen end this mistake as soon as possible."
Tian Li said: "I..."
Shen Miao did not give Tian Li any time to hesitate, she said, "Could it be that you are willing to watch your wife grow old together with others, your remaining love for her is not over and you want to let her live. Did she ever think about you for a second? She still has a conscience, and not to mention yourself, she will always be reluctant to bear Huaisheng. But the fact is, she will even take away the last bit of savings left for Huaisheng in the future. Chang Zaiqing only has herself in her heart, she You never cared about your father and son? You have to repay your grievances with virtue when you encounter such injustice, Tian Li, could it be that all the disciples who came out of your Tian family were the disciples of the Bodhisattva, and they were all compassionate and indiscriminate?"
These words were both dismissed and slapped, very rude, the corner of Xie Jing Xing's lips raised slightly when he heard it, and he glanced at Shen Miao meaningfully. Hearing that, Tian Li's face flushed red, but he did not dare and could not refute Shen Miao's words.
"The most important thing is, why does Huaisheng have to live so hard and hard, while Chang Zaiqing and Shen Wan's sons can be at ease. If one day Huaisheng meets this half-brother, Jie Shi The younger brother is a human being, but Huaisheng can only serve him like a servant. And Chang Zaiqing only recognizes his younger brother and does not recognize him, so what will Huaisheng think? Tian Li, think about it, are you really willing?"
Shen Miao's words were always faintly bewitching, making people unconsciously follow her words. And what she said was obviously what Tian Li cared about the most. Even if Tian Li is extremely bad, even if he is rude to Huai Sheng, he is a little more conscientious than Chang Zai Qing, otherwise he would not be a gambler, but he still retains the last land deed for Huai Sheng to marry his daughter-in-law. .
Huai Sheng said: "My lord, I know that I am not reconciled, but she is Huai Sheng's mother after all. I just want to get her back. If she is beaten to death, Huai Sheng will also be sad."
“Just don’t let Huaisheng know about this matter.” Shen Miao said, “After the matter is completed, Third Lady Shen will pay your father and son a large sum of money. This sum of money is much more than the original land deed. Yinzi, you can go as far as you can. Go to a place where no one knows you and start your life again. Without Chang Zaiqing, Huaisheng still has your father. If you treat Huaisheng well, Huaisheng may not be sadder than it is now. In this world There are two things that can't be kept, the water that is poured out, and the people who go out. Chang Zaiqing took the initiative to walk out of your life. She is now living a very good life. How can you chase her back? With your sincerity , or rely on Huaisheng and her mother and son. Do you think this is possible?"
Tian Li closed his eyes in pain.
Shen Miao was right, Chang Zaiqing was living such a good life now that there was really no reason to go back to the unbearable life in the past. If she really cared about herself and her mother-son relationship with Huai Sheng, she would not have sold the land deed and escaped.
The woman wearing a face scarf in front of her was still speaking calmly: "If you don't do it for yourself, the world will be annihilated, and she's not benevolent, so why should you say anything? Right now there is an opportunity to change your life again. If you miss it once, you won't have it again. It's the second time. Whether or not you are walking forward in Chang Zaiqing's life, you are always right. Because this is what Chang Zaiqing owes you father and son. Do you do it?"
Following Shen Miao's words, many things flashed before Tian Li's eyes. Chang Zaiqing disgusted and disgusted in his eyes, and his neighbors pointed at him after escaping. Huaisheng always sat alone in the corner and didn't know what to think, and he could only wear tattered clothes forever... If one day he would be able to Changing lives can also give Huaisheng a good life like those wealthy and wealthy families... Tian Li raised his head suddenly, made up a certain determination in an instant, and said, "Do it! I promise you everything will follow your instructions, However, you have to give me enough money so that the two of us can leave this place without worries!"
Shen Miao raised her eyebrows, the rumors were sometimes not credible, Tian Li was said to be like a scoundrel, but did not expect it to be so simple today, Tian Li was not difficult to deal with, perhaps because of Huai Sheng, this man Although he has no ability and temperament and is not good, he still has a good conscience.
“The silver will be given to you.” It was Xie Jing Xing who spoke, he stood in the shadows leaning against the door, and said lazily, “Don’t make other plans, otherwise…”
Tian Li shuddered violently, lowered his head quickly, and said in a panic, "Small dare not!" For some reason, facing this man, he always felt an indescribable fear. Even from the beginning to the present, it was a woman wearing a mask who spoke, but the breath of the man in purple was pervasive in the narrow room.
Shen Miao glanced at Xie Jing Xing, Xie Jing Xing was very easy to use, if he went to intimidate someone, there was no need to say heavy words, and he directly took Xie Jing Xing to the other end and the other side would wilt first.
When Xie Jing Xing and Shen Miao left the room, Huai Sheng greeted them, looked at Shen Miao and asked timidly, "Can you find your mother?"
Shen Miao looked at Huai Sheng, narrowed her brows and said, "Go to bed earlier." Then she walked out first.
Her steps were a little more hasty, Xie Jing Xing followed and left this alley in the east of the city and went to the street outside. Xie Jing Xing caught a glimpse of Shen Miao's expression and said, "Are you sorry for that child?"
“Sorry to continue doing.” Shen Miao said, “I am also a selfish person.”
“You are right.” Xie Jing Xing said casually, “You are not a disciple of the Bodhisattva.”
He took what Shen Miao said to Tian Li just now and said to Shen Miao that there was some consolation, Shen Miao glanced at him and said, "You are."
Xie Jing Xing raised his eyebrows, “How do you say?”
"Accompany me on my trip in the middle of the night, and help me threaten Tian Li to avoid future troubles. You are a disciple of the Bodhisattva, otherwise why are you so kind?"
Xie Jing Xing chuckled lightly and said, "You don't seem to appreciate it at all."
Shen Miao slowly raised the corner of her lips. The relationship between Xie Jing Xing and Xie Jing Xing gradually changed unintentionally, there is no need to confront each other, because the other party is also very smart, but instead it is more open. It seems that a lot of things are not done alone, and it is easier. For example, at this moment, walking side by side like a walk on a deserted snowy street. She seems to be still the Queen Shen in her bones, and there seems to be something more that she has never had before.
“Do you need my help with Chang Zaiqing’s matter?” Xie Jing Xing said lazily, “If you beg me, I can think about it.”
“Then don’t bother His Royal Highness Prince Lao Rui.” Shen Miao smiled, “It will save a lot of trouble.”
“Do you have a better solution?” Xie Jing Xing glanced at her and said with a half-smile, “Sometimes I feel that when the world will have problems that you can’t solve, maybe you will beg me too.”
“Probably nothing like that.” Shen Miao replied.
"Sorry." Xie Jing Xing said regretfully.
Shen Miao smiled.
…
There are new things happening in the Ding capital every day, but the new things that happen every day will quickly cover up the new things of the previous days. For example, when the Shen family and the Chen family had a lawsuit a few days ago, everyone should see it as a joke, and forget about it after reading it. As for the Shen residence, the same is true. The servants should do things. The only difference is that Qiushuiyuan has changed to a new master, and the new master is quite popular with Shen Wan, almost catching up with Shen San who just entered the house. Madam.
Compared to Chen Rouqiu, Chang Zaiqing was more able to manage his relationship with the people around him. She probably didn't have the arrogant air of Chen Rou Qiu's body, she was bright and handsome, and it made people feel very comfortable when she treated others. Not only did Shen Wan love her, but Shen Gui and Old Shen Furen also felt that she was really good, and even felt that it was a wise decision to let Shen Wan off Chen Rou Qiu.
Shen Wan waited for Chang Zai Qing Hao, so Mrs. Shen specially asked the eminent monk to come to see each other, saying that the child that Chang Zai Qing was carrying was definitely a boy. Old Shen Furen's last fuss about Chang Zaiqing's background was gone. The top priority in the Shen residence is to add a male man quickly, otherwise outsiders will seem to laugh at the Shen residence for cutting off children and grandchildren.
Shen Wan laughed every day, Chang Zaiqing made suggestions for him, and he was able to manage things in the house properly, as if he was very skilled, and he was even more relaxed. There is probably no man who does not like a virtuous inner helper who can write poetry and take care of the family business.
On this day, Chang Zaiqing and Shen Wan were talking in the courtyard again. Chang Zaiqing was surrounded by a thick fur coat, with a brazier at his feet and a stove in his hand. Fearing that she might catch a cold, Shen Wan asked the maids around her to serve her with all their hearts.
Chang Zaiqing said: "Master is a little busy today."
Shen Wan took her hand and put it in his own, and said with a smile, "It's not just today, there's nothing to do in court these days, but I can spend more time with you and the children."
"That's great," Chang Zaiqing said with a smile, "the child can get closer to his father."
What Shen Wan said was very useful, he embraced Chang Zaiqing in his arms, and sighed, "Now what I hope in my heart is nothing more than your giving birth to a child, so it's not worth my work."
If Chen Rouqiu realized something, seeing that Shen Wan's brows did not relax, she asked, "Master, are you still worried about the affairs of Fifth Young Miss Shen a few days ago?"
Let Shen Miao marry Prince Zhou, or let Shen Miao and Prince Zhou spread their relationship, no matter what it is, up to now it has not been spread at all. It didn't go well either. Although Chang Zaiqing didn't know why Shen Wan wanted so much, he knew that this matter must have something to do with Shen Wan's career.
Shen Wan shook his head with a wry smile and said, "These days, Shen Xin has seen Shen Miao very well. Shen Miao has never left the residence, so she really can't find an opportunity. It is like an iron bucket, it is difficult to teach people to start." As he spoke, he seemed to be wistful: "It can't go on like this."
Chang Zaiqing rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "What's so difficult about this, if Fifth Young Miss Shen doesn't go out, just let Fifth Young Miss Shen take the initiative to go out. To be honest, if Fifth Young Miss Shen goes out, General Shen knows that, and will inevitably let her go out. With a group of guards, General Shen was born in the army after all, and everyone around him is a master. If you really want to do it, you may not succeed in one fell swoop. It is better to let Fifth Miss Shen go out on her own, and secretly go out, so that Shen is not allowed to go out. The general found that it was much easier in this way."
Shen Wan's eyes flickered, and after thinking for a moment, he still shook his head: "Shen Miao usually does not have any secrets, it is difficult to coax her out." It was because Shen Miao had a good friend named Feng Anning. Yes, these days he stayed in Feng Mansion safely, and if Shen Miao was let out in the name of Feng An Ning, Shen Miao would definitely be alert.
"Little girl, no matter how calm you are on weekdays, you are always timid, and you have trouble in your heart." Chang Zaiqing smiled softly: "Master, why don't you take the sword, for example, take Miss Shen's parents or The elder brother is making a raft, saying that they are in danger or something, and he is flustered. No matter how calm the fifth Miss Shen is on weekdays, it will be related to her blood relatives, and she will panic if she thinks about it, Master may wish to take advantage of this opportunity. "
When Shen Wan heard the words, he thought for a while, then clenched Chang Zaiqing's hand and said, "Although there are still some loopholes, it is still a good method. Useful." He looked at Chang Zaiqing a little excitedly, and said, "You can always surprise me."
Chang Zaiqing bowed his head slightly and said with a smile: "Master is really joking. Now that he has followed him, he will try his best to think for his sake. Although this matter is not fair and upright, Zai Qing also knows that there are no fathers and sons in the court. The Youth Association puts the master first."
In fact, the matter of plotting Shen Miao, in the end it was a poisonous trick to say it out, although Shen Wan really appreciated the trick that Chang Zaiqing came up with for him, but in the future, he would inevitably feel that Chang Zaiqing was ruthless. Chang Zaiqing took the lead in saying it himself. First, it was based on the fact that there was no father and son above the court, and then on the grounds that Shen Wan was put first in everything. Instead of making Shen Wan feel bad, it made Shen Wan appreciate Chang more. Zai Qing felt that she was open-minded and rarely thought of herself wholeheartedly. She was a rare and strange woman.
Therefore, Shen Wan looked at Chang Zaiqing affectionately, and said, "With this beautiful woman, what more can my husband ask for."
Chang Zaiqing also said meekly: "It's a blessing to meet the master, and the master treats him well, and Zaiqing dare not forget it." The more she sat down, the more Shen Wan loved her, but he did not Seeing the smugness that flashed across Chang's blue eyes.
In Chang Zaiqing's eyes, any man or any kind of relationship is just passing by. Only when she has truly experienced poverty will she know the value of wealth. She wants to hold Shen Wan firmly, not because of Shen Wan, but because of the worry-free life that Shen Wanneng brought her. Chang Zaiqing was different from Chen Rouqiu, Chen Rouqiu still loved Shen Wan in his heart, so Chen Rouqiu would lose his mind because of Shen Wan's actions. What Chang Zaiqing loves is the wealth of the Shen residence and the status of the official wife, so he will more clearly understand what he should do.
For a man like Shen Wan, a person as clever as Chen Rouqiu would inevitably end up like this in the end, Chang Zaiqing knew in his heart that relying on poetry and songs alone would not be enough to capture this man's heart. She has to show her talent and make Shen Wan feel that she is useful to her, and Shen Wan will never give up on herself.
Chang Zaiqing did a great job.
Shen Wan sat here with Chang Zaiqing for a while before he got up and left. He still had some official business to deal with, so he seriously instructed the servants around Chang Zaiqing before leaving with his servant.
When he returned to his study, the valet came slowly with a letter in his hand and said, "Master, the doorman said that someone handed in a letter to give it to the master, but I don't know who it is. Sent."
Shen Wan took the letter and saw that the top of the envelope was also empty, obviously for fear of being noticed and signed. Those of them, who were officials in the court, occasionally had some confidential letters, so Shen Wan did not dare to delay, so he quickly opened the letter.
After opening the first line of the letter, Shen Wan froze in place.
That line is called Mr. Shen San, do you know that your beloved concubine is a broken shoe
Shen Wan was almost unsteady, he held the table with one hand, calmed down, and quickly read the letter just now.
The letter is really very simple to write, but the content of the letter is not simple at all. The letter said that Chang Zaiqing had already been married in Liuzhou and had a son. Now in the Shen residence, she has become Shen Wan's concubine. The most important thing is that at this time, Chang Zaiqing has not yet divorced her original husband. If it is more serious, Shen Wan can even be said to be stealing | Indicted to court!
Shen Wan didn't believe it at first, he looked at this letter with a bit of disdain, he even wondered if this letter could be evidence of Chen Rouqiu's provocation. But when he saw the last line of words, he trembled and froze suddenly.
Chang in Qing's private place, there is a small red mole.
This is a hard truth.
