Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 960
As early as March when Huainan was preparing to send troops, Shen Jin and his friends planned to go north with them, but his elder brother completely ignored his appeal, which made Shen Jin quite frustrated.

But fortunately, his sister-in-law, Princess Xingnan, returned to town not long after, accompanied by Mrs. Aling from the Du family whom he had been thinking about day and night, which relieved his regret of not being able to follow the army northward to hunt meritorious deeds.

However, Shen Jin soon discovered the gap between reality and ideal.Although Mrs. Du Ling was adopted by his family before, and she had a happy childhood experience with her childhood sweetheart, but because his future mother-in-law, Mrs. Du Shi and Mrs. Pei, strictly abide by the ethics and ethics, when the relationship between the two families is first established, no boys and girls are allowed. Contact again in private.

This time going north, Mrs. Pei was unable to go north in person because of her frail health.Shen Jin had always dreamed that he would finally have the opportunity to get in touch with the young lady of the Du family alone, but he might not have any inhumane intentions. After all, Shaoai Qingmeng is always poetic, but he didn't expect that the encounter was worse than when he was in Duxia in his early years. Not as good.

Shen Jin himself was not happy to be employed in the Xinshi Museum. For example, Xie An, Chen Kui and others of the same age have long been appreciated by many museum scholars, and they are also among the best in the usual school examinations, so they quickly won the title of career scholar. qualifications.

Shen Jin had to study in Xinshi Hall only because of his elder brother's force.This time he finally found a reason to take the initiative to undertake Bieye's defense. While ensuring Bieye's quietness and not being disturbed by idlers, he also had the opportunity to meet Miss A-Ling in the market.

However, it may be that the little lady has just grown up and always has expectations for her future husband-in-law, or her sister-in-law is finding someone to blame her because it is difficult to reunite with her elder brother.

As Master Wang was victorious in the north, when Miss A-Ling saw him by chance, she often gave a few shy and timid words of persuasion, advising him to follow her elder brother as an example and always use it to encourage himself, don't Live up to the reputation of loyalty and bravery of the family, and don't let down your own superior background.

As for his sister-in-law, she even changed her pampered attitude. Every time she saw Shen Jin, she would reprimand her, which made Shen Jin feel so miserable that she didn't even dare to go to the inner court to play with Miss Du Ling. Make a chance encounter.

Shen Jin made up his mind to go to visit Du He this time after long hard thinking and listening to the opinions of several bad friends.To Shen Jin, he was also delighted to be able to achieve his goal so quickly.After settling this matter, he strengthened his belief in going to Heluo to join the army for meritorious service.

In the garden villa area of ​​Qianjin Mansion, although many residents have been added recently, those new residents are not purely for obtaining a temporary residence.So even if you have obtained the occupancy qualification, you will not move in now without winking.

Therefore, this area is not busy and noisy, it is very quiet.Originally, there was quite a distance between the gardens and villas. Even if there were any gardens, flowers, trees and gardens, they were mainly concentrated in a few relatively spacious places.

When Shen Jin and his entourage rode back, many soldiers in charge of guarding appeared in some hidden places. After they found out that it was Shen Jin, some of them retreated without stopping.

But there are also some people who do not retreat, but meet them face to face, such as Xie Wan, Huan Huo and other bad friends.

Seeing that Shen Jin was riding a horse with a high-spirited look on his face, Xie Wan laughed out loud, looking like he was holding a pearl of wisdom and a trick in his chest, pointing at Shen Jin and saying loudly: "I just said, Ah He, you are always worried. Difficulty is just asking for troubles, we men are born in this world, it is appropriate to act straightforwardly, without stagnation in our hearts. Even if there are some disadvantages, but since we are lucky to live in this world with the great sage, as long as we follow suit, there will be no shortage of gains."

In the past, Shen Jin would not pay attention to Xie Wan's complacent show off, but this time he was able to succeed, thanks to Xie Wan's encouragement.At this moment, it is natural to repay the kindness, and before he could speak after dismounting, he first clasped his fists as a signal.

"Du Changshi really agreed to your request, Ah He?"

Seeing this scene, Huan Huo also showed joy on his face, and even felt a little moved.

When Xie Wan heard this, his laughter became even more hearty, his chest puffed up, he was even more proud than himself: "My fair lady, a gentleman is so good. A young man is elegant and full of emotion, so he is not shy at all Things. Everyone loves beauty, regardless of age. If you blindly restrain yourself, even if you have talents, you will be wiped out."

"The person I admire the most in my life is naturally the Chief Governor of Shen Dadu. He is a good wife and young companion, and the door is peaceful. Naturally, he can focus on making achievements without distraction. The second is the Second Governor Shen. In this matter, I really set an example! Ah He, I am not looking down on you, but such two virtuous elders are born in your family, you really lack the demeanor of the two virtuous brothers!"

Between bad friends, it is natural that they always take pleasure in belittling each other.But when Xie Wan said these words, he really expressed his heart.His admiration for the governor and Shen Mu really comes from the bottom of his heart, and it can be said that these two represent the two ultimate pursuits in his life.

The Metropolitan Governor and the Eldest Princess have been companions for a long time, and they are said to be spouses, and the reason why the Metropolitan Governor can have such a great reputation today is naturally not unrelated to the benefits brought about by the status of the Elder Princess.

As for Shen Mu, it's easier to understand. He was born in Jiangdong Hao's family. He has no shortage of talents, and he has his elder brothers as his arms to help him. The blessing of Qi people.It can be said that there is no regret for a man to do this step.

To be able to have a spouse who supports and helps in career, and who can hug left and right within the curtain door, this is the perfect life in Xie Wan's ideal.

Of course, Xie Wan himself is not bad, he has already been married to Taiyuan Wang's Gao Di, and the granddaughter of Wang Cheng, who is known as the No. 1 scholar in Yuefu, is his wife.Although it is only a concubine, the distinction between concubine and concubine in Jiangdong is not as strict as that in Central Plains and Hebei.In short, judging from the family status of the Xie family in Chenjun, this marriage can even be said to be the Xie family's high profile.

But Xie Wan was still a little bit dissatisfied, the reason was that his father-in-law, Wang Shu, was not the type he had imagined, neither was he a romantic and elegant celebrity like his parents like Xie Kun, nor was he practical and capable. The choice of a talented minister.Therefore, in Xie Wan's view, Wang Shu really has a bad family background.

Because of this, Xie Wan didn't even pay much attention to Yu Manzhi and Shen Yun in the Dudu's mansion.These two people are only visible now because of their age, but because of their obvious shortcomings, they have never been favored by their father-in-law.But Xie Wan has no blue eyes on his father-in-law. In comparison, it is clear which is higher and which is lower.

If it was in the past, upon hearing Xie Wan's remarks, Shen Jin would have to refute a few words and scoff.However, he was really happy today, so he was too lazy to care about it. He waved his hands and smiled at everyone: "There is still a lot of hypocrisy in the town right now, and you need to guard the gates and pavilions strictly. When Master Wang returns triumphantly, I will drink and celebrate with you again." , and then mount the bow and saber naturally, and hunt the MG in the north!"

Hearing what Shen Jin said, the eyes of all the young people were shining brightly.This year, Wang Shizhuang's meritorious deeds are spread frequently, and I don't know how many people will share the meritorious deeds, but they can only wait in Huainan, feeling anxious and looking forward to it, dreaming of going north to make achievements and boasting.

After exchanging pleasantries with several bad friends, Shen Jin went to the largest manor again. Naturally, he was stopped and interrogated along the way. The closer to the manor, the stricter the guards, including Shen Jin.

The real guards of the manor are actually the Huainan Army’s left-behind elite soldiers. As for Shen Jin, a group of out-of-character young people, even if they volunteered, Du He and others in the Governor’s Mansion would not dare to place the safety of the eldest princess and the young man on on them.

After Shen Jin entered the manor, he saw many busy figures in front and back.The entire manor is not small in size, and there are at least two to 300 people inside and outside.

If it was just the eldest princess and Shen Jin's little nephew, naturally there would be no need for so many obedient people, but beside the princess, there are still some stable wives, nurses and very good-looking women sent by the Empress Dowager in Yuanzhong and Shen's family. All of these require listening and serving, so the scale of the manor's servants has naturally become larger.

The longer people live in the high gate, the more sensitive they are about identity.Shen Jin's arrival also caused quite a commotion, many people greeted him flatteringly, and even those who thought they were smart had already quietly told where Miss Du was at the moment.

What Shen Jin is most concerned about at the moment is of course how his sister-in-law, Princess Xingnan, is feeling. Although the princess is still in the month, sheltered from the wind and dust, and seeing no idlers, her mood can be good or bad from time to time. If it happens that the sister-in-law is in a bad mood Shen Jin would most likely be summoned to the porch and reprimanded.

Of course, Shen Jin didn't dare to hold grudges because of this, not to mention that his elder sister-in-law was like his mother, how much her sister-in-law cared for him when he was young, and whenever his elder brother reprimanded him, it was her sister-in-law who protected him to escape.But at present, his sister-in-law gave birth to his eldest son and grandson, but his elder brother was too busy with military affairs to accompany him. The woman was careful, and it was inevitable that she would feel sad. Even if there was any act of venting her anger, Shen Jin could only endure it.

However, the content of the maid's report today is good: "His Royal Highness is in a good mood today, and the meal has also improved, and she has already rested early. Xiao Langjun is also lively today, or it is because..."

When Shen Jin heard this, he was already overjoyed, and he didn't even bother to hear the reason. Dang Li skipped three times to find Miss Du Ling, based on sharing the joy of a successful marriage proposal and the joy of going north to make meritorious deeds.

The eldest princess gave birth and recuperated, and her residence was naturally extraordinary. The manor had several entrances and exits, and there were many houses.Shen Jin walked through the corridor to transfer ownership, and soon came to the attic where the little lady lived.

He also knew that the little lady Yajing was shy and was not in a hurry to enter. She just stood outside the door and knocked lightly, calling in a low voice: "Miss A-Ling, are you there, Ma'am A-Ling? I didn't come to see you today to be bored I have too many things to tell you. If you don’t want to see me, you might as well move behind the door, and let’s have a few words in secret..."

When he heard the rustling sound behind the door, Shen Jin was overjoyed: "We were all young in the past, and there was no lack of intimacy. Even if we started to play around, I was afraid of offending you... Later, although we all lived in the same household, But I don’t see you very often, I miss you often, but I’m too shy to ask you how you feel... I’m really happy to meet you again in Huainan this year, but I also feel that you and I are less friendly than in previous years.

I know you may blame me for being stubborn and difficult to teach, who doesn't want a good spouse?Even men admire gentle and quiet women. From this point of view, natural girls prefer Yingmai Gaoyu men.Compared with my elder brother, I'm just a bad boy in the family, and you are not the only one who feels sorry for me, Mrs. A Ling.In fact, why don't I want to... In the past, my father and brother taught me a lot, and I also deeply complained that I couldn't do it well, or that my talent was so poor that manpower couldn't make it up...

Today, I dared to go to see Uncle Du to ask for a marriage, not because I wanton and disregarded you...I was just worried about the future of my little lady...Brother has made great achievements in this world, and I have already disappointed him a lot by not being able to get a prize in the Xinshi Pavilion. If I go to battle in the future, I will never dare to step forward for my own life.People may be biased because of my elder brother, but I can't protect myself with this, and I must not let down the family's reputation. It is my father and brother's hard work. If I want to enter the battle and fight bravely, I don't know myself...Ah, ah Brother? "

Shen Jin was talking emotionally here when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps coming from behind him. When he turned his head and looked, he saw his elder brother, still in uniform, walking in from outside the court, standing not far behind him with his hands behind his back, and he was suddenly dumbfounded.

　In fact, when I opened the book, I was thinking about what kind of character Shen Jin should be portrayed, although this person is not very famous in history, and he is completely inferior to the most dazzling people in that period.But in the Wei and Jin family history, this person can be said to have a very strong representative. The father almost wiped out the family, and the son endured the humiliation and fought with his life, and finally continued the Wu Xingshen family for hundreds of years. scenery. . .After thinking about it for a long time, I decided not to be so bitter and bitter, and to relax, and let him enjoy a little bit of the glory of the family that he had sacrificed his life for but never enjoyed in the past. . .
