Chapter 18
Not long after, Xu Yuanche and Zheng Han, the second sons of Ruiguo Duke's Mansion who were invited by him, came to the teahouse one after another.

Seeing that Shen Qianwei had already drunk it first, Zheng Han said deliberately.

"The boss also said that he invited me to drink tea with Mr. Xu. He drank it all by himself. It doesn't matter if I lick the tea bowl. Mr. Xu can't be wronged. You have to order another pot."

Shen Qianwei picked up the empty tea bowl in hand and threw it at it.

"Okay, you said you wanted to lick the tea bowl. Don't worry about the new tea being served later."

Zheng Han caught the tea bowl thrown over, put it back on the table with a shameless smile, then pulled out the chair and sat down.

"I just like to joke, how can I just lick the bowl when I come to the teahouse."

Seeing the two of them frolicking for a while, Xu Yuanche smiled helplessly.

"Why do you have the heart to ask us to drink tea today, have you had enough wine at the Su Mansion's banquet?"

He also went to the Su Manor's banquet today, and saw Shen Qianwei drinking with Su Junning.

Zheng Han was not among those invited, so he was not qualified to attend the banquet in the Su Mansion, but he had a heart of gossip and love to join in the fun, so he immediately regained his energy.

Smiling, he filled Shen Qianwei with a cup of tea.

"How is it, Boss, Miss Su Si's Jiji wine, is it good?"

"It's very beautiful, the wine is delicious, and the people are even more beautiful." Shen Qianwei leaned back and leaned on the chair, looking like an old man.

Xu Yuanche beside him frowned, "Could it be that you really like Miss Su Si?"

"Fart!" Shen Qianwei yelled loudly, as if his loud voice could make people believe it, "I appreciate it, people are good-looking, and it's not enough to look at them a few more times."

After finishing speaking, he sat up straight and changed the topic, "It's you, what are you going to do?"

Although Xu Yuanche and Su Zhiyi's marriage has not yet been decreed, it has already been made in front of Emperor Jianning. During this period of time, there are many affairs in the court. I am afraid that after these few months of busy work, the marriage will be decreed .

When he mentioned himself, Xu Yuanche's expression turned cold.

"I've already mentioned it to my aunt, and my aunt scolded me, and I don't have a plan right now."

It is reasonable for the Empress to disagree.

After all, what Xu Yuanche likes is not someone else, but Qin Wan who has been married to the eldest son of the Wu family.

That's right, that day at Duke Ruiguo's mansion, Su Junning overheard the intimate hero and heroine, it was the second son of the Xu family, Xu Yuanche, and the married lady of Jingchanghou's mansion, Qin Wan.

It's a pity to say that this old man of Jingchanghou, Qin Zhao, is a typical old-school nobleman in the court. It can be said that Jingchanghou has a credit for the fact that the old and the new ministers are fighting against each other in the court.

He is a civil servant and a nobleman from a scholarly family. He has always opposed Emperor Jianning's practice of forcing the poor generals from Yanzhou into the court.

In his opinion, these generals are respectable, but they are really rude and rude, and they don't know anything about the government affairs of the court. They are assigned to guard the frontier or garrison the army. They only care about training and don't care about government affairs. Come to the court.

The most typical representative is Shen He, the general of Mingwei, who is a warrior who doesn't know a few big characters.

Wanting to rely on this group of people from Yanzhou to replace their ministers from noble families, in Jingchanghou's view, it is Emperor Jianning who is messing around.

If it weren't for the great military exploits of Emperor Jianning, the throne would have been taken from his elder brother with real swords and guns. The family blasted out of the court.

As the brother-in-law of Emperor Jianning, Duke Xu Changnian of Ruiguo followed Emperor Jianning all the way from Yanzhou to Kyoto.

It is absolutely impossible for these two factions to become in-laws, so it is also doomed that the love between Xu Yuanche and Qin Wan will not be allowed.

But the word love is something that people can't control. The more you don't get it, the more regretful you will be. So even today, Xu Yuanche still thinks about Qin Wan who is married.

Of course, it was also because Qin Wan had a bad life in Wu's house and never forgot about him that the two of them have been disconnected.

But from Shen Qianwei's point of view, Xu Yuanche's current troubles are also self-inflicted.

If it wasn't for the fact that he was afraid of his family's opposition and dared not reveal his feelings to the outside world, Emperor Jianning would not have thought of him and married Qin Wan to someone else.

After all, marrying the Xu family and the Qin family is really binding the interests of the ministers representing the old and the new factions together.

Up to now, Qin Wan has married the eldest son of Wu, and the Wu family is also the old ministry of Emperor Jianning in Yanzhou. It is impossible for Emperor Jianning to agree to the reconciliation of the Qin family and the Wu family, and then allow the Qin family to marry the Xu family.

It's not people inside and out.

What's more, apart from Xu Yuanche, no one in Ruiguo's mansion is willing to let Qin Wan in.

I didn't agree to it before, and Qin Wan would not agree to marrying the Xu family after marrying someone else.

This is destined to be evil fate.

However, the authorities were confused by the onlookers, Xu Yuanche had been blinded by love, and Shen Qianwei didn't want to hit his good brother too much, so he had to soften and persuade.

"It's a pity that you and Ms. Qin have nothing to do with each other, but the current situation is like this. My younger brother advises you, don't be too brainy. In fact, the young lady of the Su family is not bad."

While talking, he gave Zheng Han a look.

The latter understood, and nodded, "Yes, the Su family is also a scholarly family, and the second Miss Su is also well-educated, beautiful and charming, and has a good relationship with Miss Qin, she must be a type of person."

"It is precisely because she and Wan'er are close friends in the boudoir that I can't marry her. That would be piercing Wan'er's heart with a knife!" Xu Yuanche said with red eyes.

Seeing him getting emotional, Shen Qianwei quickly changed the subject.

"Okay, okay, let's drink tea today, brother, don't talk about these troubles, come, come, brother Xu, drink tea."

After a few cups of hot tea, Xu Yuanche's matter was finally revealed.

But seeing that he was not in good condition, Shen Qianwei didn't keep him any longer, and after sitting in the teahouse for an hour, he and Zheng Han sent him back to Ruiguo Duke's Mansion.

Then the two of them rode their horses and slowly swayed back together.

Zheng Han's family lived behind Shen's residence, so they went the same way.

"Boss, you are not young anymore, and you don't plan to start a family? I can see that the third lady of the Xu family is interesting to you." Zheng Han said.

Shen Qianwei gave him a sideways glance, "Don't fucking talk nonsense, I see Sini as a younger sister, besides, my master has very high eyesight, so you have to choose slowly, what's the rush."

"Yes, yes, no matter how you can't be worse than Miss Su's fourth!" Zheng Han deliberately pushed her with a playful smile.

Shen Qianwei laughed and scolded a bastard, raised his whip and slapped Zheng Han's horse hard.

Neighing, the horse speeded up and ran out with Zheng Han on its back.

Shen Qianwei rode his horse to follow, but his eyes couldn't help looking in the direction of the Su residence.

There are faint lights still visible there, I don't know if the people in the mansion have stopped or not.

On the long street in the middle of the night, the young man rode his horse recklessly, not knowing which family's Jiaojiao he was thinking of, the corners of his lips slightly raised.
