The Starting Point of Raising a Husband

Chapter 82: As long as I still have a mouth today, don't even think about it

Views:

Shi Qing and Yun Zhi accompany Shi Ju to meet the guest.

It's just that it's inconvenient for Yunzhi to carry the rabbit cage in his hand, so he handed the rabbit cage to Mihe, and they will chase after them a few steps later.

Shi Ju glanced back, with a smile in his eyes, "Stop bullying him, he only has you in his eyes."

Just like Shi Qing's tail, he follows her wherever she goes.

"I just teased him. I didn't bully him. I wouldn't even bother to watch it if it were someone else."

Shi Qing followed suit and looked back, his smiling eyes curled up, piercing Yun Zhi's little thought, "He wants to watch the fun with me."

"What's the fun in the literati world?" Shi Ju shook his head slowly.

The hustle and bustle of the literati is much better.

The Shi family had a rare visitor today, mainly because Shi Ju was the censor of the capital before, and Manchu officials generally would not go to the door of the Shi mansion unless they had to, so it seemed that it was extremely rare for someone from the Shi mansion to visit.

Especially it was Shen Yuan, the eldest prince's wife who came here.

Shen Yuan is about the same age as Shi Ju, both in their thirties, with a refined temperament and a very good-looking appearance.

Even at this age, she still has a faint bookish look on her body, and her smile is very charming.

When she went to Beijing to rush for the exam, Shen Yuan and Shi Juyin became confidantes, and even agreed that if the children they had in the future were of different genders, they would marry each other.

As a result, I didn't know what happened later, and the two hadn't been in contact for many years.

Even if he was an official in the same dynasty, he rarely moved around.

The most recent intersection was the dissolution of the engagement between the Shi and Shen families after the release of the rankings at the beginning of this year.

Just like this, it was the eldest prince and not Shen Yuan who came to withdraw the engagement.

Her son-in-law doesn't seem to care about things, she is a "virtuous wife" standing behind her husband.

Including the matter that Li Yunqing was about to assassinate Shi Qing in the posthouse outside the capital, it was clearly found out that Li Yunqing was from the Ministry of Rites, but this was also related to the eldest prince, and had nothing to do with Shen Yuan, the minister of the Ministry of Rites.

Everyone only thought that the eldest prince was strict, and Shen Yuan was not from a high family background, so she had no right to speak in the mansion, so the eldest prince took the lead in matters.

Shen Yuan is like a clear pool whose bottom can be seen at a glance, and all the filth has nothing to do with her.

But Shi Qing's biggest impression of this person was her words two days ago.

Qian Huanhuan, a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, arranged a new play. When Shen Yuan mentioned this matter to the queen, she clearly left herself out, saying that Qian Huanhuan was covering up the tricks tightly, and she had never seen it before.

It sounds like Qian Huanhuan's play is new enough, but it's not.

Shen Yuan, as the minister of the Ministry of Rites, a minister of the Ministry of Rites, if she really didn't know any news, then her life all these years would be considered in vain.

What's more, the Shen family and the Qian family didn't have a life-threatening friendship. Shen Yuan, an old fox, could not trust Qian Huanhuan unconditionally, and she would lead the entire Ministry of Rites to make fun of the Queen's birthday banquet.

Shen Yuan left herself first that day, and Qian Huanhuan was solely responsible for what happened.

If she is rewarded, it is because of her unconditional support and trust from Shangfeng that she has achieved what she is today.

"I think what happened to you two back then..." Shi Qing walked forward side by side with Shi Ju, raised his eyes to Shen Yuan who was standing at the gate of Shi Mansion, clicked his tongue, and said in an affirmative tone, "It's definitely her fault."

Shi Ju turned his head to look at Shi Qing in surprise, although he was moved by Shi Qing's unconditional trust in his heart, he still smiled lightly.

She said: "There is no right or wrong in the affairs of the court... But the level of character can be seen at a glance."

The good thing about Shiju is that he will not easily evaluate or belittle others in private.

It is understandable to have different political stances, but it is despicable to use the friendship between two people to achieve her own goals.

Shi Ju was very relieved about the former matter, but not so easy to forgive the latter matter.

"Master Shen."

Shi Ju raised his foot and stepped over the threshold, but didn't go down the steps. He lowered his eyes to look at Shen Yuan who was standing beside the sedan chair, "Why did you remember to visit today?"

Shi Qing stood beside her and saluted Shen Yuan.

Shen Yuan walked up the steps with a smile, and stood in front of the mother and daughter of the Shi family, although she looked at Shi Qing, she was speaking for Shi Ju.

"In the blink of an eye, after all these years, Xiaoqing has grown up so much."

Before Shi Ju could speak, the end of Shi Qing's eyes twitched first.

Look at this almost set, somewhat blind.

"Master Shen, you have been an official in the same court for the past few months, have you never seen me?"

Shi Qing was surprised, "Is my sense of existence already so low?"

Not to mention that she had saved Shen Yu twice in private, even if she was an official in the same dynasty, she would always see it, right

Shen Yuan was choked for a moment, but the smile on her face remained unchanged, "Of course I saw it, Shiju taught you such an excellent daughter, who can't see it all over the world."

Shi Qing's ending sound raised "Ai", and retorted: "What you said is wrong, I am so good, mainly because I work hard the day after tomorrow."

"You use my excellence to praise my mother, which is a bit indiscriminate, which is equivalent to denying my hard work."

"This time the praise is mediocre, don't do it so much next time."

"..."

Shen Yuan's face froze for a moment.

Hearing Shi Qing's words, the stalker following Shen Yuan took half a step forward, but before he opened his mouth, Shen Yuan raised his hand to stop him.

After the long follower retreated, Shen Yuan sighed with a smile, "Shi Qing's mouth is really unforgiving. He can say three things without reason."

It seems that no matter how she opens her mouth, Shi Qing has something waiting for her.

then-

She chose to bypass Shi Qing and talk directly to Shi Ju.

"I was wrong about what happened back then, but so many years have passed, and now I come to the door, can I not even go in and have a cup of tea?"

Lord Shen gestured, and several people stood at the gate of the Shi Mansion.

Shi Ju and Shi Qing, mother and daughter, neither mentioned the matter of entering the mansion, and they seemed to stand here and finish their conversation.

Originally, Shen Yuan did not enter the mansion after posting the post, but wanted to put pressure on the Shi family to let Shi Ju take the initiative to invite her in, so that she could speak about the next business.

It's good now, the mother and daughter blocked the door on the left and the right, not to mention inviting, completely in the posture of "you don't even want to enter my house".

If this gets out, she, the Minister of Rites, will really look a little ugly.

It seems that she took the initiative to come to the door to ask for peace, but Shiju didn't agree, and in the end she couldn't get down.

Shen Yuan was also afraid of embarrassment, if it wasn't for Enke, if it wasn't for Shiju being the sixth emperor's tutor, she wouldn't have come to Shi's house to ask for embarrassment.

"Is the tea in the Shen family not enough?" Shi Ju put one hand behind his back, and said in a calm tone, "Need to come to Shifu to ask for tea?"

She raised her eyes to look at Shen Yuan, and said: "If Mr. Shen really loves to drink the tea from Shifu, he wouldn't wait until today to come to the door."

The attitude of the mother and daughter is already obvious.

Shen Yuan looked at Shi Ju, and smiled slowly, "Shi Ju, your temperament is really suitable for the position of the imperial censor. If I hadn't pushed you back then, it's hard to say whether you can still drink hot tea in Shifu .”

She had a refined look on her face, and even her voice was very gentle, "It's been so many years, if you can't make it through, I can't help it either."

Shi Ju's whole body became so cold.

Shen Yuan has been Minister of Rites for so many years, and she is also the son-in-law of the eldest prince. She can count on one hand all the people who dare to speak ill of her.

She was not like Li Yunqing, nor Qian Yuqing, who stretched out her face to be beaten.

"You should know why I came here today. If you want to discuss it, we'll go in and talk. If you don't want to talk, I won't stay any longer."

Shen Yuan lowered her eyes and straightened her sleeves, "You and I are both decent people, and in front of our children, why bother to do anything wrong?"

Shi Ju clenched his fingers and looked straight at Shen Yuan, "What's the big deal? If it wasn't for you, why would I have almost gone to jail? If my husband hadn't been frightened during pregnancy, my daughter wouldn't have..."

Shi Ju suddenly paused for a moment, and then continued, "I thought you had a problem, but you just pushed me down. If I hadn't followed the path of a lonely minister, I really wouldn't be able to drink the hot tea in Shifu."

The shirk responsibility and inaction back then, but now in Shen Yuan's mouth, it has become "help" to her

More than ten years ago, when Shi Ju first entered the court, he was much younger and more difficult than Shi Qing.

At that time, the first emperor was old and seriously ill, the new emperor had not yet been appointed, and the court situation was complicated. If Shi Ju hadn't put all his eggs in one basket, he might have been tired by Shen Yuan.

It's just that the new emperor who finally enthroned is the current emperor, and Shen Yuan is the eldest prince's wife, so the superficial harmony is maintained, and no old things are mentioned.

"You still can't get through?" Shen Yuan sighed softly, "I couldn't help myself back then. If you didn't have a relationship with me because of this, you and I are probably already in-laws now, but what about the divorce a year ago?"

Shi Qing couldn't help looking up when he heard this, what a master of throwing blame.

Where was the flourishing white lotus unearthed

"If you want to be so shameless, I have to teach you how to be a human being."

"My mother doesn't want to be rude, but you are really worth it."

Shi Qing knew the reason why Shi Ju asked her to come here, Shen Yuan deserves to be scolded.

Shi Qing put his arms around his arms and looked at her, "You couldn't help yourself to what happened back then, what about my mother? She deserved what she deserved, and she deserved it. Who told her to treat you as a friend regardless of human beings or animals?"

"Isn't it right to share a life with you later? What's the benefit of making you a friend?"

"Is it for you to send her to prison, or is it for you to ruin her family? Why don't you contact me, do you have no points in your heart?"

"All the faults belong to others, and you, the white lotus flower of the prosperous age, are pure and flawless in the whole world."

Shen Yuan was a little dazed by the scolding, she never expected that Shi Qing would dare to speak such harsh words to her, and she didn't react for a while.

"you!"

As soon as she opened her mouth, the long suit behind her took half a step forward.

Chang Sui had an official knife hanging on his waist, and when he spoke, his right hand was already resting on the handle of the knife, and he looked at Shi Qing gravely, "Master Xiao, please be careful with your words!"

Shi Qing took half a step forward, and was very close to Chang Sui Li, with his right hand resting on the wrist holding the knife, slightly clenched, with a provocative tone and raised eyebrows.

"I am the fourth rank, even if I say something carelessly, so what about you?"

Even if it is inferior, it is still a fourth rank!

Chang Sui wanted to draw his sword, but he never expected Shi Qing to be so strong as a civil servant!

The fingers she held on her wrist were like pliers, making it impossible to move.

Chang Sui raised his eyes to look at Shi Qing, his eyes froze, "You don't respect the son-in-law, don't blame your subordinates for offending!"

As she spoke, her left hand was about to attack Shi Qing's heart—

When Shi Ju saw the other party moving, his heart couldn't help but tighten, "Qing'er."

Shi Qing didn't have time to spare, she knew it.

Before Shi Ju had time to call out, he felt a gust of wind passing by.

When he turned his head and looked over again, Yun Zhi in a lavender summer shirt was standing beside Shi Qing, holding her left forearm with his left hand through the long-tailed sleeve.

"She doesn't know martial arts, so she comes to me when something happens."

The husband and wife, one held the right hand of the long follower, and the other held the left hand of the long follower, restraining her tightly.

"If you are disrespectful to me, don't blame my husband for being rude."

As soon as Shi Qing pushed Chang Sui, Yun Zhi let go tacitly, and Chang Sui took a few steps back by surprise, almost falling off the steps.

"you-"

The long follower was about to move forward, but Shen Yuan stopped her with her eyes.

Obviously, Chang Sui is not Yun Zhi's opponent.

Yun Zhi stood beside Shi Qing with his arms folded, in a protective posture.

Shen Yuan felt very familiar with Yunzhi's standing posture.

She thought about it, and suddenly remembered.

When the leader of the Imperial Forest Army standing next to the emperor stood beside the emperor, he also stood in this posture and position.

Shen Yuan took a deep breath and smiled, "Shi Qing, I don't blame you for disrespecting me so much. After all, we proposed to dissolve the failed marriage between you and Yu'er."

"...?!"

Yun Zhi's upright posture paused slightly, and reached out to touch Shi Qing's lower back.

what's up

The relationship just started because of depression

Yun Zhi pursed his thin lips and stared at Shi Qing.

Shi Qing held Yunzhi's hand backhand, and looked at Shen Yuan with a sneer, "Master Shen, is it too bad to play this trick with me, a junior?"

I don't know where the soil is so fertile that green tea like Shen Yuan grows, is it Dongting Lake

"As for retiring the engagement, to be honest, this is one of the few human affairs you have done. I didn't get married with your family because my ancestral grave was smoking, and my ancestors accumulated virtue."

What Shi Qing said didn't mean that being depressed was bad, but that he was also unlucky, because he had a mother and father who only cared about him.

"What happened back then was because you were unkind, but you are even more aware of the reason for the divorce this year."

"Now you have the cheek to push all the faults to my Shi family. You think that your status as a consort can cover up the sky with one hand, so you can turn black and white, or you think that my Shi family is a gourd with a sawn mouth. Only you have a long mouth and can talk Mouth?"

Shen Yuan's complexion darkened, the elegant temperament on her body gradually faded, her jaw was tensed, and the corners of her mouth were pressed down.

Only then did Shi Qing realize that she wasn't smiling lips either, the usual smile was just a hard concave.

"Master Shen, don't be angry, it's not me who made things ugly today, it's your Shen family who made things too ugly."

"My mother tolerated you once, and divorced is to tolerate you twice."

Shi Qing said in a helpless tone, "But you still want to show your face today, even if you make trouble in front of the emperor, you will be shameless one after another."

Shen Yuan just wanted to play both soft and hard ways, first to get close, to see Shi Ju's attitude, but after being pushed back by Shi Qing, she put on a tough stance again.

One is to save respect, and the other is to frighten the Shi family.

She just came here and there, nothing was lost.

She stood at the gate of Shi's mansion for so long today, and those who pay attention have already seen her. When the rumors come out, maybe how the Shi's family and the Shen's family reconciled.

At that time, if Shen Yuan wants to be the chief examiner of Enke, it can be said that it is recommended by Taifu Shi.

Years of hostile and discordant relationship, just this can still be recommended, it can only show that Mrs. Shen is worth it.

Shi Qing is going to tell Shen Yuan what she is worth today, and she is quite worth the scolding.

"Shiju," Shen Yuan breathed heavily, and wanted to smile at the corner of her mouth, but Shiju's expression was light, and she listened to Shiqing's words the whole time without interjecting to stop her, so the smile couldn't be raised, "Your Shi family is like this Don't give me face, let a junior point at me and disrespect me, do you not care about the royal family at all?"

Shi Qing immediately said: "You are you, the royal family is the royal family, and your face can't represent the face of the royal family."

Don't pour dirty water on her.

Shi Ju then opened his mouth and said: "Master Shen has gained a lot today, so I won't invite you for tea. Although I am no longer the imperial censor, I will use your son-in-law Shen as an example to tell the officials today that my family of Shi's , it’s not so easy to advance.”

Shen Yuan stared at Shiju fixedly, breathing heavily.

Today can be regarded as a loss of face.

Shi Qing said softly to Yun Zhi, "Just wait and see, maybe it's time to speak harshly."

"Why do you speak harshly?" Yun Zhi leaned his head together and asked.

Shi Qing smiled, "Of course it's a forcible withdrawal, it doesn't look so embarrassing to leave."

Shen Yuan, "..."

The two of them didn't talk behind anyone's back at all, just discussing in such an open manner, Shen Yuan was full of words, and she panicked when she didn't say anything.

In the end, Shen Yuan opened and closed her mouth, met Shi Qing's gaze, and left with a heavy slap on her sleeves in a rage!

Shen Yuan came here today and was very angry, Shi Ju said to Shi Qing in a low voice: "We have offended the eldest prince, his wife and husband to death."

Shi Qing raised his eyebrows and said calmly, "Oh."

So what if you are offended and dead

She has offended so many people, these two couples are not too many.

Shi Qing just likes the way these people can't get used to her and can't cover her mouth, so they can only look frustrated in the end.

What's more, Shen Yuan dared to go to the emperor to complain about today's matter

How to sue? Is it possible for her to tell herself that she wanted to go through the back door to be the chief examiner, but was scolded and shameless in the end

Shen Yuan will only cover up today's affairs, and dare not let the rumors spread, lest she will be ashamed and thrown on the street, and she will not be able to pretend to be so elegant in the future.

Shi Qing has nothing to fear.

It's not that she only has a mouth but no brain.

Shi Ju glanced sideways at Shi Qing's little expression of "With this mouth, I can live through today and never want tomorrow", and smiled.

Shi Qing always has a kind of "as long as I still have a mouth today, you don't want to be happy until tomorrow".

Today can be regarded as a complete relief, Shi Ju has put the past in his heart for so many years, and he feels much more comfortable.

She looked at Shi Qing and Yun Zhi, "Let's go, I'll treat you both to tea."

She smiled, "Excellent Biluochun."
