marquis of jingan

Chapter 847 Broken!

Datong Street is on the edge of the Imperial City.

In Jiankang City, it can be said to be the golden zone of the golden zone, the real city center.

Decades ago, when the Great Chen Court first moved to Jiankang, many people worried that the Southern Chen Court would be wiped out by the Northern Qi Dynasty due to the instability of the court.

Therefore, in the first ten years of the Southern Chen Dynasty, the land price was not very high.

However, with the stability of the political situation, coupled with the "small revival" of the Emperor Xianzong, the situation in the Northern and Southern Dynasties was completely stable, and the Nanchen gradually prospered, and the land and housing prices in Jiankang City became more expensive every day. Other places in the city are better off, the mansions on the edge of the imperial city are all gone without an owner.

Because of this, even if His Majesty the Emperor wants to reward Shen Yi with a house, he still needs to work hard to find a way to get Cheng Shilang to give up the house.

Moreover, Cheng Shilang's house is a big house with east and west across courtyards, with four entrances and four exits. It has an excellent location. If it is sold, it can even be sold for a million taels. It is a first-class mansion!

After all, this is the house that Cheng Shilang saved after years of "hard work".

Mrs. Shen blinked her eyes, still a little dazed.

After being dazed for a while, she looked at Shen Yi: "Husband, this house is..."

She glanced in the direction of Miyagi.

Shen Yi didn't speak, just nodded silently.

To be honest, although this house cannot be said to be a bad thing for him, it is not a good thing either.

Because it's so noticeable.

When Cheng Shilang fell off the horse, Mr. Shen took over his house. No matter who it was, he would have "a good association".

More importantly, the emperor intends to use Cheng Shilang to issue an "anti-corruption" charter.

Although he may not be ready to do anything in the past two years, after a few years, maybe the emperor will bring up the old matter again, and then he will say, "I have reminded you for 11 years in Hongde, let everyone learn from Cheng Bin, If you don't change it in the end, I have no choice but to ruthlessly rectify the administration of officials and so on."

At that time, when the imperial court uses knives on those corrupt officials, those who care about it will think of Shen Yi again.

Although Mr. Shen is not prepared to be a corrupt official, nor is he prepared to have any contact with those corrupt officials, but it is always bad to be an official in the court and offend too many people.

Just like what Lu Ruoxi said, some people hate you in their hearts, maybe they're holding back bad things in their hearts, and when they don't expect, they will stab you.

That is to say, Shen Yi's popularity in the imperial court may become worse and worse.

Lu Ruoxi looked at Shen Yi, then at the house deed in her hand, she blinked at Shen Yi.

"My concubine is still talking during the day, did Cheng Shilang offend some important person..."

Speaking of this, she sighed softly: "It turns out that I offended my husband."

Seeing her expression, Shen Yi smiled and said: "This house is much better than the house we live in now, why is Madam sighing?"

Lu Ruoxi shook her head slightly, and sighed: "I heard those wives mention Cheng Shilang some time ago, and many of them complained a little, complaining that the court's punishment was too severe."

She looked at Shen Yi, and said softly: "If we live in Cheng Shilang's house, what will people think about our house?"

Lu Ruoxi said softly: "Besides, this house is pretty good, and I'm used to living in it..."

There are not many members of the Shen family now, even with the younger brother Shen Heng and Shen Heng's family members in the future, they can live there as much as possible.

It is just needed without changing the house.

Shen Yi nodded silently, and said: "Since this is the case, then let's not rush to move, and wait a year or so before we talk about it."

Speaking of this, Shen Yi thought for a while and continued: "By the way, the marriage between Zichang and the Chen family is scheduled for May next year. At that time..."

"I may not be able to make it back."

"Madam, please take more trouble. When the time comes, let the young couple live in this house first. When we move to Datong Street, we will let the younger brother live in this house."

"Two families can live here."

Lu Ruoxi looked at Shen Yi, and sighed slightly: "Husband, can it be done without moving?"

Shen Yi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head slightly: "No."

"This is rewarded by His Majesty, how can we not move it? But Madam, don't worry, even if our family bought this house from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, we will go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to complete the paperwork for my husband in a few days. Talk."

Lu Ruoxi touched her stomach, was silent for a while, and then nodded.

"I don't know if there are peach blossoms in the Cheng residence..."

Master Shen knows that she likes to see peach blossoms, and there are a lot of peach blossoms planted in the front and back yards of Shen's house, he immediately said with a smile: "When we move there, we can go to Dongshi Street to buy some adult plants for my husband, and plant them in the yard. "

Lu Ruoxi held Shen Yi's hand, leaned against Master Shen's arms, and said slowly.

"For some reason, I always feel that these things are not reliable..."

Shen Yi touched her hair and shook his head slightly.

"Ma'am, I've worried too much. I've done a lot of things for my husband in the past few years. It's just a house."

Shen Yi smiled

"There's nothing unsteady about it."

………………

On the thirteenth day of the first lunar month.

Shen's mansion was busy again. Several Wen women delivered the baby in the room. Three men, Shen Yi, Shen Zhang, and Mr. Lu, stood at the door of the room and waited. Although it was the first lunar month, there was sweat on the foreheads of the three of them. .

Master Shen put his hands in his sleeves and waited anxiously.

The eldest son, Shen Yuan, stood in front of his father, looking up at the room from time to time, but he was still too young, so he was not anxious, but more curious.

Fortunately, this time, compared to Lu Ruoxi's first childbirth, it went much smoother.

After a few stable women entered, within an hour, the sound of a baby crying came from the room.

A steady woman trotted all the way, came to Shen Yi, and squeezed out a smile: "Congratulations to Mr. Shen, the joy of making tiles, the pearl has been won!"

"Mother and daughter are safe!"

She smiled a little forcedly.

Because I know in my heart that most of the rich families don't like daughters, and they prefer males more.

However, Master Shen was very happy, he hugged his son beside him, and said with a smile: "Yuan'er, you have a younger sister!"

Shen Yuan was three or four years old at this time, and basically understood everything he needed to know. He also grinned and clapped his hands continuously when he heard the words.

"Father, I want to go in and see my sister!"

Shen Yi responded to him, then turned his head and said with a smile to Ping'er, the maid beside him, "Ping'er, go and get the reward money for the mothers, give it a big reward!"

Ping'er quickly lowered her head, responded, and hurriedly led a few stable women down to collect the reward money.

Shen Zhang is also smiling.

Although he also favors sons over daughters, he already has an older grandson in his family, so it doesn't matter whether the second child is a boy or a girl. He immediately pulled Mrs. Lu and said with a smile, "My in-laws, let's go in and have a look together?"

There was also an unstoppable smile on Master Lu's face.

He didn't have a son, and he only had a daughter like Lu Ruoxi in his whole life. Because of this, he looked forward to this granddaughter even more.

Looking forward to being a small blue sparrow one size smaller.

On this day, the whole Shen family lit up lanterns and festoons to celebrate that Master Shen of the Ministry of War had won a pearl.

Many well-informed people, especially officials from the Ministry of War, have already come to the door to give congratulatory gifts.

Among them, the most active one is of course Zheng Ling, a member of the military selection department of the Ministry of War. This member of Zheng waited outside the Shen family door for almost a day. When the firecrackers of the Shen family were fired, he immediately visited the "old leader" Shen Yi. .

After receiving a wave of guests, it was not until the afternoon that Master Shen finally had some free time and returned to the bedroom in the backyard to be alone with his wife and little daughter.

In the room, Master Shen was holding his baby daughter in his arms, and he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

Lu Ruoxi on the side was lying on the bed, looking at Shen Yi who was full of smiles, she was still a little weak: "My husband seems happier now than when I got Yuan'er."

Master Shen coughed and said with a smile: "Wherever you are, I am equally happy to have a son or daughter."

"It's just that girls look more like wives, so I'm happy. Boys and girls, our family raises them the same."

Lu Ruoxi shook her head slightly, and sighed: "It's different, my daughter's family, after all, life will be more difficult."

This sentence is applicable in this era. Women at this time are indeed the oppressed party.

Master Shen glanced at his daughter who was already asleep in his arms. He still had a smile on his face, but the content of his words was no longer very polite.

"In this world, no one can make my daughter suffer."

"Look what you said."

Lu Ruoxi only thought it was a little funny: "If she gets married in the future, you can still let her do it?"

"Maybe at the age of fifteen or sixteen, when I meet the lover of my heart, I won't even recognize your old father."

Her words were just a joke, but Master Shen's face turned dark when he heard it, as if he had seen the will-o'-the-wisp boy who abducted his daughter ten years later.

He still wanted to speak, but someone knocked on the door, Jiang Sheng's voice came, and he said: "Young master, there are people from the palace, congratulations, young master, for winning the jewel in the palm."

When Master Shen heard this, his complexion became even darker.

He put his little daughter in the crib, and looked back at his wife, with an uneasy expression on his face.

"Bad lady."

Lu Ruoxi blinked her eyes, she didn't understand what Shen Yi was talking about, she asked softly: "What's wrong, husband?"

Master Shen narrowed his eyes and said in a muffled voice,
"Those who miss our daughter are here..."
