marquis of jingan

Chapter 933
The next morning, after Shen Yi had breakfast, he was ready to leave for Jiangdu.

Shen Heng, who hadn't had time to go to work in the Imperial Academy, caught up with Shen Yi after breakfast, grabbed Shen Yi's sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Brother, just now my sister-in-law told me that you are going back to Jiangdu. "

He paused, then slightly lowered his head and said, "Otherwise...forget it."

Shen Yi stopped in his tracks, glanced at him, and frowned slightly: "What's the deal?"

Shen Heng said in a low voice: "Uncle is seriously ill. Father should really be watching in Jiangdu. Anyway, brother and sister-in-law are both here. People say that elder brother is like father. This marriage is not impossible..."

"Bullshit."

Shen Yi frowned slightly and said: "When the parents are gone, the eldest brother is like a father. Now that the father is still there, how can there be any reason not to be present? You can forget it here, can you forget it at the Chen family? If this matter is not handled well, you Not to mention the father-in-law and the mother-in-law, the young lady will feel uncomfortable for the rest of her life."

"You don't need to worry about it, it's time to go to the Hanlin Academy, go to the Imperial Academy."

Master Shen said lightly: "I will handle this matter."

Shen Heng bowed his head and said, "Otherwise, I'll go talk to the young lady and her family..."

"say what?"

Shen Yi frowned and said, "How do you tell them this?"

"Our family is better now than before, but we can't bully others, we can do whatever we want."

Speaking of this, Shen Yi patted Shen Heng on the shoulder, and said slowly: "I said, you don't need to worry about this matter, I will take care of it for you."

"If uncle is really sick, then he should be treated. We have nothing to say. If you think about it, we will be sick."

Master Shen snorted: "It's not that easy."

Shen Heng's marriage was hindered. At first, a large part of the reason was because of his uncle Shen Hui. Especially after Shen Heng was a first-class Tanhualang in high school, there were many dignitaries who came to the door to propose marriage. When the two brothers returned to Jiangdu to worship their ancestors, Shen Hui There is no less mention of this.

Now, the marriage has been pushed back and forth, and finally they are going to get married soon, but Shen Zhang has not come back, and tricks are leaking everywhere.

"Brother has worked so hard in Huai'an for so long, and he just came back yesterday, so he's going to..."

Before Shen Heng could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Shen Yi frowning.

"There's no need to say such things."

Shen Yi glanced at Shen Heng, and continued: "This year will fill up the vacancy, you should eat more, and when you have nothing to do, go to Master Zhao's house and walk around more."

Shen Yi sighed slightly: "I went to Zhao's house yesterday, and I heard from Master Zhao that you can't go to his house a few times a year, and you are also a student of Master Lu, so why can't you get close to this master?"

Shen Heng lowered his head slightly.

"Brother, Master Zhao's position is too high. If I go there often, I'm afraid of being gossiped behind my back..."

"Bullshit."

Shen Yi said angrily: "Now your brother and I are also the Minister of the Ministry of War, and we are not far away from Shangshu. Does it mean that you don't even move around with your own brother?"

"That's our family's connection, and others can't ask for it!"

"Go for a walk if you have nothing to do. It's good to get acquainted with each other. It's not embarrassing."

"You will fill in the vacancy soon. I don't have much time in the court for my brother, so I can't drag you much. The one who can really help you and teach you is our Senior Uncle Zhao. Do you understand?"

Shen Heng lowered his head slightly: "Little brother understands."

"Ah."

Shen Yi patted him on the shoulder again: "Go to the Hanlin Academy yourself. I will return to Jiangdu this time. If it is sooner, I will come back tomorrow. If I am slower, I will come back a year ago. Don't worry about it."

Shen Heng is now about the same height as Shen Yi, and a little bit shorter. He took a step back and bowed deeply to Shen Yi: "Thank you, brother."

Master Shen turned around and waved his hands: "Come on, I don't like rotten scholars."

After bidding farewell to his younger brother, Shen Yi greeted his family members, and then took a dozen or so entourages and rode away from Jiankang.

The reason why so many people are brought is because the Department of Purity of Northern Qi has always been there, and one cannot slack off for a moment, and if one slacks off, Master Shen might not see tomorrow.

Jiangdu is [-] miles away from Jiankang, because things are a little anxious, so they don't stop all the way, and they don't care too much about horsepower. They ran from morning to evening, and finally entered Jiangdu city before the gate of Jiangdu city closed.

Shen Yi grew up in Jiangdu, and he is very familiar with Jiangdu City. A group of more than a dozen people quickly rushed to the gate of Shen's residence in Jiangdu. Shen Yi jumped off the horse, moved his body, which was a little stiff because of the rush, and went straight to the gate of Shen's residence. go.

Looking up, the Shen family's portal...

Seems bigger than before.

The bar seems to be a little higher.

Shen Yi stepped forward and knocked on the door, and soon the porter's rough voice came: "Who is it?"

"I."

When Shen Yi was still in Jiangdu, the Shen family was already in decline. Although there was still such a big house left, there was not much money left. Shen Ling and his wife lived here, and there was only one servant in the family.

Now that Shen Hui came back, he brought back seven or eight servants, the house became lively again, and the concierge was also assigned.

But this man couldn't hear Shen Yi's voice, and after looking through the crack of the door, he asked, "Who are you?"

Master Shen's tone was calm.

"Shen Yi."

The concierge was stunned for a while, then opened the small door silently, looked Shen Yi up and down, and asked cautiously: "Is...is it the seventh young master?"

Shen Yi nodded.

The concierge let out a cry of surprise, and before he even had time to open the door for Shen Yi, he turned around and ran to the inner house of Shen's family.

Because it was just dark at this moment, the members of the Shen family did not fall asleep. Not long after, the third young master Shen Ling brought his wife to the front yard. After seeing Shen Yi, Shen Ling quickly stepped forward and pulled Holding Shen Yi's sleeve, smiling all over his face: "Lao Qi is back? When did you arrive in Jiangdu?"

He glanced behind Shen Yi, and said again: "Why didn't the siblings come back together?"

Shen Yi lowered his head slightly: "Third brother, third sister-in-law."

Mrs. Shen faintly sensed that something was wrong, she looked at Shen Yi with a smile on her face: "Did Qilang drive the general back?"

Shen Yi nodded, he walked into the door of Shen's house, looked at Shen Ling, and asked: "Third brother, I heard that Uncle is ill, is it serious?"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Shen Ling to answer, he asked again: "Where is my father?"

Hearing this, Shen Ling exchanged glances with his wife, then coughed, bowed his head and said, "Lao Qi, my father is indeed ill, not seriously ill. Fourth uncle has been living at home these days, so he should be at home now." Resting in the backyard, I will take you to meet him?"

Shen Yi nodded first, then looked at Shen Ling and his wife, and asked, "Third Brother, do your family know about Xiao Jiu's getting married?"

Shen Ling was silent for a while, then nodded silently: "I know."

Shen Yi took a deep breath: "Isn't the big house going to leave?"

Hearing these words, Shen Ling's face immediately turned red.

Because of this matter, they are indeed wrong.

Although the previous generation of the Shen family had already separated, the blood relationship was very close after all. Logically speaking, even if the uncle Shen Hui didn't go when Shen Heng got married, Dafang must go here, otherwise it would be too rude up.

Shen Ling's face turned red at Shen Yi's words, he hesitated and couldn't say a word.

Mrs. Shen at the side saw this, hesitated for a moment, and still gritted her teeth: "Qilang, don't make things difficult for your third brother, there are father and brother above, and he can't speak."

Shen Yi nodded silently, then looked at Mrs. Shen, and said slowly: "Sister-in-law three, can you take me to see Uncle? I heard that he is ill, so I will visit him too."

Mrs. Shen glanced at her husband, Shen Ling shook his head and said: "Zi Heng, it's too late today, I'll take you to see fourth uncle, you rest for one night, tomorrow I will take you to see father."

But Mrs. Shen gritted her teeth and said to Shen Yi: "Qilang, I will take you to see your father-in-law."

After finishing speaking, regardless of Shen Ling's obstruction, she led the way ahead.

Shen Yi looked back at Shen Ling, lowered his head slightly and said, "Don't worry, third brother, I have a measure."

Shen Ling was silent for a long time without speaking.

Soon, under the leadership of Mrs. Shen, Shen Yi came to the door of the master bedroom at the rear of Shen's mansion. The light was still on in the master bedroom, obviously Shen Hui was not asleep yet.

Madam Shen was about to speak, but Shen Yi silently took a step forward, stopped in front of her, and said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law three, you and brother three go back to the house first, this place has nothing to do with you."

"I'll talk to my uncle alone."

Mrs. Shen also heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the words. She said hello, then turned her head and pulled her husband away.

Shen Yi walked to the door of Shen Hui's room by himself, bowed slightly and said, "Uncle, nephew Shen Yi, I see you are here."

There was no movement in the room for a long time.

Shen Yi was not in a hurry, and waited quietly.

After an unknown amount of time, the door opened with a creak, and a wave of heat rushed over.

It's winter, and a charcoal fire is lit in the old man's house.

I haven't seen him for a while, and my uncle's hair has turned gray again, and he looks a little more listless than before, with no energy.

Shen Yi cupped his hands and saluted: "Uncle."

"Lao Qi is back."

Shen Hui glanced at Shen Yi, turned his body slightly, and said, "It's cold outside, come in and talk."

Shen Yi was also polite, and after saying "yes", he followed into the house.

After entering the room and taking a seat, Shen Hui looked at Shen Yi and asked, "Have you met your father?"

Shen Yi shook his head: "I heard that uncle was ill, so I didn't have time to see my father, so I came to visit uncle directly."

With a smile on Shen Hui's face, he nodded and said, "It's rare for you to have such filial piety that you achieved success at a young age and made great progress at the same time."

Shen Yi raised his head and looked at Shen Hui quietly: "Is uncle really sick?"

Shen Hui frowned, a little unhappy: "What does Lao Qi mean by this?"

"It doesn't make any sense."

Shen Yi said quietly: "It's just that uncle is in good spirits, he doesn't look like he's sick."

"I was very ill before, but recently the medicine was right and I recovered a little."

Shen Hui said: "One or two months ago, I was lying on the bed and couldn't move, and I almost didn't carry it."

Shen Yi nodded thoughtfully.

"It seems that uncle's illness has been cured."

Shen Yi paused, and said: "Tomorrow, my nephew will take my father and go back to Jiankang. My uncle also knows that Xiao Jiu will get married soon. If there is something to do here in Dafang, I won't go if I don't go, but my father must Go, without him."

Hearing this, Shen Hui frowned slightly, then looked at Shen Yi, and said in a low voice, "Old Seven."

"Should Xiaojiu's marriage be delayed?"

"He got married, and it's not appropriate for his uncle not to go. We'll wait for the uncle to recover from his illness before we can do the marriage."

"Can't wait."

Shen Yi answered very simply, he said: "I have already set a date with the fortune teller, and the husband said that rescheduling is like remarrying."

Shen Hui frowned: "Will you stop thinking about it?"

"Our Shen family, from your great-grandfather to the present, is the first time to have a first-class Jinshi. Shouldn't we be more cautious about marriage?"

"Let's talk about it."

Shen Yi let out a sigh of relief: "Uncle simply dislikes the Chen family as a farming family and disagrees with this marriage."

Shen Hui frowned, and after thinking for a while, he said, "It's not that my uncle disagrees. I discussed this matter with your father, and your father is not very satisfied with the Chen family."

"My father has already agreed."

"Otherwise this marriage will not be settled."

Shen Yi looked at Shen Hui and said, "My nephew doesn't know what uncle thinks, nor what uncle said to my father, but the marriage has been settled."

"Father nodded, my nephew is the master."

Master Shen was so angry that he finally couldn't hold back, and said something indifferent.

"At this point, there is nothing left to consider."

"If Dafang really doesn't like this marriage, then you don't have to go."

"In the future, there will be weddings and funerals here at Dafang, and our family may not come."

Shen Hui was furious.

He stood up directly and said angrily: "Lao Qi, this is how you talk to elders!"

Master Shen sat on the chair, motionless.

"Uncle, we are the only ones here, there are no outsiders, so."

He looked up at Shen Hui, whose face was flushed.

"That's the attitude I have."
