Chapter 201
Xiao Yi didn't make a sound at first, but after Si Qing said it, he greeted Lin Zhizhong vaguely, and didn't have any extra words.

Out of the corner of his eye, he drifted towards Yan Mowei, who quickly looked away.

Siqing was about to speak, but Fu Linchuan walked over with a newly picked herb in his hand, and smiled at Siqing: "So you are here."

Siqing said, "Uncle." Xiao Yi also smiled, "Mr. Fu."

Fu Linchuan pointed behind him and smiled, "There are people looking for you everywhere."

Si Qing knew that it was Cheng Yingzhou and the others who had come to find them, so she bid farewell to everyone, and did not ask how the marriage preparations of Lin and Xie's family were going.

After the couple had gone far away, Lin Zhizhong was about to speak, but someone approached wearing a long gown and a sword, and saw Fu Linchuan first bowed. Seeing that it was Cheng Yingzhou, Fu Linchuan pointed to the direction Siqing was going down the mountain and shouted, "Go over there!" .” Cheng Yingzhou hurriedly searched all the way.

Mrs. Lin saw Xiao Yi's extraordinary appearance, so she smiled and said: "The younger sister of the Gu family is a good husband."

Gu Heng intentionally avoided the topic of Si Qing, and deliberately didn't bring it up again. Seeing this situation, Lin Zhizhong and his wife didn't ask any more questions.In a blink of an eye, the sun was setting, and everyone went down the mountain to return to the city.Lin Zhizhong and his wife were worried about their younger sister, Lin, and wanted to leave and go home.Wu Zhenying said: "It's getting late, eat a bite of food at my place before going back."

When everyone returned to Wuzhai, who knew that Siqing had already spoken to Uncle Lu inside.Uncle Lu set up a table in the main hall and was wrapping fresh meat glutinous rice balls, Siqing helped out.Seeing that she was the only one, Gu Heng smiled and said, "Why are you walking so fast?"

Siqing said: "I'm here to take advantage of the meal. If I come late, there will be no more?"

At this time, Uncle Lu said: "This afternoon, Miss Jiang came over and said to come in the evening."

Wu Zhenying said to Lin Zhizhong, "It's my niece." It was Jiang Feng who was talking about it.

Uncle Lu went to order glutinous rice balls, Gu Heng and others washed their hands to help.Siqing took the small bottle she found in the inner room and asked Gu Heng and Wu Zhenying, "Why did you put this in the house?"

Gu Heng said: "It's about rats. I've been looking for cats everywhere recently, and the cats are so scared that they don't catch mice anymore."

Siqing said casually: "Mice? Zhou Zhang must be equipped with this precious poison?"

But the matter of "looking for cats everywhere" has something to do with her, so she didn't want to ask any more questions, in case Gu Heng ridiculed her again.

Just as it was bustling, Xia Ying came in carrying a large bag and a small bag, and was quite surprised to see Si Qing. Si Qing nodded to her, and Shen Jiangdong and his wife had already walked in.

Shen Jiangdong had just recovered from his injuries, and his complexion was wan. Seeing Siqing hurriedly salute, Siqing returned the courtesy with a slight smile and said, "Brother Shen, long time no see."

Shen Jiangdong saw that Yan Mozhen was also there, so he said with a smile: "It's so lively today, who posted an invitation?"

At that moment, Gu Heng also came to the hall to say hello. Siqing introduced Lin Zhizhong and his wife to Shen Jiangdong and his wife. Seeing Shen Jiangdong's expression was wrong, Jiang Feng looked at Wu Zhenying strangely. Lin Zhizhong was also a little puzzled, so Siqing asked: "No way? Do you know each other? We met in Yuhang?"

Wu Zhenying said: "Such a coincidence?"

Seeing that Siqing didn't speak, Gu Heng said to Shen Jiangdong and his wife, "This is the son of Mr. Lin Shiyi from Yuhang."

Lin Zhizhong cupped his hands and said, "I'm going down to Lin Zhizhong."

Shen Jiangdong said happily: "I really didn't expect to see you again here, Mr. Gao Yi, I have never forgotten it!" Looking at Jiang Feng, Jiang Feng also smiled and said: "Mr. Lin's boat is still moored by the Duanjia Bridge, I don't know if it was taken away?"

Siqing interjected, "Brother Shen, what's the matter?"

Lin Zhizhong also asked, "Don't know how to address it yet?"

Only then did Shen Jiangdong remember that he hadn't returned the salute, so he replied, "Shen Jiangdong."

When he said his name, Lin Zhizhong was taken aback. Lin Zhizhong lived in Yuhang for a long time. How can you not know?

Lin Zhizhong was still wondering if it might be the same name and surname, but Wu Zhenying had already greeted him: "Sit down and talk, sit down and talk. It's rare to have such a complete gathering today." He likes to be lively, and he is very happy to see everyone gathered together.

So everyone sat around in disorder, and Uncle Lu served tea first.Seeing that Uncle Lu was making rice noodles, Shen Jiangdong also came up to help.

Wu Zhenying smiled and said, "You still know this?"

Jiang Feng smiled and said, "He can cook."

Wu Zhenying then said to Uncle Lu and Shen Jiangdong, "We four northerners are forced to eat southern food with you people from the southern province."

Everyone laughed. Although Jiang Feng didn't know the Lin family, he knew that the Lin family in Yuhang had a good relationship with Fu Linchuan and others. It was not surprising to see them here, so he first asked: "Mr. , we have never met each other. Xining was in the south in the late autumn of 21, why did you think of helping him?" (Shen Jiangdong and his wife met Lin Zhizhong for the first time, see Chapter 15 Wanli Sad Autumn and Chapter 92 Reluctantly Join Forces)

Lin Zhizhong said: "To be honest with Mrs. Shen, one reason is that Mr. Li's reputation is really bad. I heard that he gave his biological daughter to his former boss as a young talent and was promoted. During his tenure, he always did immoral things. , I saw him searching and arresting on the lake again, and I thought that he must be committing crimes again, and helping the two of you to get on a boat is just a matter of effort. The second one, Mrs. Shen's sword, looks very familiar to me."

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help looking at Siqing, who patted the rice noodles on his hand and pulled out the dagger in his sleeve, "This one? It was given to me by my uncle from the Wu family when I was young. Damn it. Brother Lin, you've got the wrong person."

Jiang Feng smiled and said, "So that's the reason." Then he looked at Lin Zhizhong's wife and asked, "This is... Mrs. Lin?"

Mrs. Lin agreed, and the two met again.

Wu Zhenying smiled and said, "I've always been curious, Xuan Bin Siqing, when did you two find out that these swords are a pair? I don't seem to have told you."

Jiang Feng said: "I found out the first time we met."

"When the couple got married, we weren't close at that time," Si Qing smiled, "I sat in the wing room with the bride, and there was an assassin lying on the beam."

Shen Jiangdong said: "You don't remember anything else when we got married, you just remember that there was an assassin lying on the beam of our house."

"That's not true," Siqing said, "Sister knocked down the assassin with two hits, and we found out that the swords are actually a pair."

Wu Zhenying asked again: "Yuanxi met the Lin family in Yuhang?"

Shen Jiangdong said to Siqing and Wu Zhenying: "In Yuhang last autumn, we went to see Sun Pingfu at night and were almost discovered, thanks to Mr. Lin's help. When we left Yuhang behind, it was also thanks to Mr. Lin. We didn't have time at that time I asked Mr. Lin's name, I never thought I would meet him here."

Jiang Feng said: "It's a pity that before I went to Yuhang, I even heard that the official surnamed Li had a good reputation. I didn't expect him to lead people to surround Yuanxi and me in Yuhang at night. Thanks to Mr. Lin, we were able to avoid each other by sending us a boat." round up."

Gu Heng said casually: "Who is the daughter of a serious family rushing to become a concubine?"

Yan Mowei at the side turned pale with anger, and twisted Gu Heng hard.

Gu Heng was originally satirizing this senior official surnamed Li for doing whatever he could to get a higher position, but who knew that he was touching Si Qing.Pian Siqing was also a talkative person, with a deadpan expression on her face, she said, "I did it, do you have any objections?"

The whole house was quiet, Shen Jiangdong was almost scared to death, Fu Linchuan and Wu Zhenying were also speechless for a while.

Siqing Xining returned to Beijing in 13 years, and was only listed as nine concubines at the beginning. In 14 years, Xining entered the palace as a concubine, and Xining was canonized as the Queen of the Central Palace in 18 years. When she asked Gu Heng like this, Gu Heng was completely unable to answer. .

Lin Zhizhong and his wife didn't know the inside story, so they were even more puzzled.I saw Siqing's husband-in-law on the mountain today. Could it be that Siqing is just his wife?
Mrs. Lin even speculated that Siqing must have been abducted by a kidnapper and sold to someone else to be a concubine, and later she escaped and met Fu Linchuan again.

Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Lin Zhizhong quickly interrupted and asked, "Is the companion who left Yuhang with you at that time okay now?"

Shen Jiangdong didn't know who it was for a while, but Jiang Feng remembered that Lin Zhizhong didn't see Sun Pingfu, and he should be talking about He Shouzhi, so he said narrowly: "He is very good now, if he takes another step, he might be a hero in Lingyan Pavilion .”

Siqing thought he was talking about Yao Yuantu, governor of Zhejiang Province, so she asked Lin Zhizhong, "How can Brother Lin not recognize Yao Yuantu? Isn't he also from the Gushan Society?"

Jiang Feng smiled and said, "It's not Yao Yuantu, it's He Shouzhi."

Siqing giggled and said, "Auntie knows how to tell jokes." Yin explained to Lin Zhizhong, "This man has gone to Dingfan." Then he said to Shen Jiangdong, "It was time to kill him."

Shen Jiangdong thought I killed him, how can you bring down the He family by yourself?So he just smiled and didn't speak, because he got up again to thank Lin Zhizhong, and asked where the Lin family lived in Beijing.

Uncle Lu ordered hot glutinous rice balls and removed the chopping board from the main hall.Everyone had dinner and exchanged greetings for a while. Mrs. Lin saw that it was late and she was worried that her sister Lin was at home by herself, so she bid farewell to Wu Zhenying first.

Wu Zhenying smiled and said: "I haven't seen your father for more than ten years. The last time I sat together was when I went to Yuhang to meet Brother Fu in the early years. It is rare for you to come to Beijing. Brother and sister Liang are here today. Let's do whatever Gotta have a drink."

Talking about everyone drinking wine to celebrate, I am infinitely moved.

When Shen Jiangdong grew up, the members of the Shen family were thin, and when they went out to dinner, the host and guest wore masks to be courteous. There has never been a casual dinner where the relatives and friends of the ancients gathered together and the host and guest enjoyed wine and chat like today.Everyone was very excited, and they all said that when Gu Heng's elder brother Xie Yan went to Beijing and Lin Zhizhong's cousin married Xie's family, they would come to meet again.

As soon as Lin Zhizhong and his wife left, Gu Heng couldn't help but asked, "What's going on?"

Si Qing said: "No way, Brother Shen, your supervisor is still being taken as a thief in the territory?"

Jiang Feng raised his eyebrows and said, "He insisted on going to see Sun Pingfu at night, and he wouldn't listen to what he said."

"If you don't see Sun Pingfu, maybe he won't come back to Beijing," Siqing said, "If he doesn't come back, I don't mind my own business, and maybe I won't get shot."

Gu Heng smiled and said: "You are the only one who will take regret medicine."

"It's nothing to be treated as a thief," Shen Jiangdong said, "I almost couldn't make it when I left. At that time, I thought that if I died in Yuhang, I might not be able to tell what happened next."

Wu Zhenying said: "You guys are really capable of tossing around."

Siqing smiled, "The first time I read "The Long Edition" was at Lin Shibo's house. At that time, I felt that the ministers in the court were fighting with style and how far away. Later, I saw it with my own eyes and found that it was similar to those in the world. There is no difference in fighting for territory... There is also, fighting in groups to see who is good at martial arts, and fighting inwards to see who is shameless."

Gu Heng was speechless, and quickly looked at Shen Jiangdong, "Is this okay to say?"

"I didn't mention you, Brother Shen," Siqing teased, "If I said you, I would have scolded myself."

Jiang Feng said: "I didn't ask Mr. Lin if Anping County troubled him later?"

Gu Heng said: "Probably not." Gu Heng remembered something while talking, so he turned to Si Qing and asked, "Why did you scare Du Sizhong away?"

"Why did I scare him away?" Siqing was dissatisfied, "He was going to Zhejiang."

But she didn't want to mention Fu Linchuan's past in front of Fu Linchuan's face. Du Sizhong told Ye Xiufeng about Fu Linchuan's past.

Gu Heng said: "However, his illness will be better if he returns to the south."

Although Gu Heng was talking to Si Qing, he kept observing Si Qing's expression carefully, for fear that what he said just now would really offend her.

Before Siqing entered the palace, Xiao Yi's rule from childhood to university was to keep quiet unless there was a big banquet, Fu Linchuan and Wu Zhenying didn't follow the rules, and Siqing and Gu Heng quarreled at the dinner table since childhood.

After Siqing entered the palace, the rules of Maode Palace and Ninghua Palace were completely abolished. Every time Siqing and Xiao Yi dined, they both sent the palace people away.

Shen Jiangdong and Yan Mowei were also adherents of "eat without speaking", but since they often went to Wuzhai for meals, they could only go to the village to do as the Romans do.Wu Zhenying came from a reckless background, and hated to be polite. Every time Wu Zhai got together for dinner, men and women would sit together, and it became a time for everyone to exchange anecdotes.

Today Gu Heng said the wrong thing, the scene was very embarrassing, Si Qing didn't say anything, and everyone didn't say anything, it was a bit weirdly quiet for a while.Siqing was a little absent-minded, and accidentally spilled soup on the skirt of her clothes, so she had to go to the inner room to loosen her outer shirt.

Wu Zhenying asked: "Today's gnocchi are delicious? Why are you so absorbed in eating?"

Jiang Feng said with a smile: "Uncle doesn't know, he used to be particular about eating without speaking, and he usually eats very solemnly. It's not like we are from a small family, and there are no rules for everyone's background."

Shen Jiangdong said: "Talking nonsense, except in the palace, where are there so many rules."

Seeing Siqing go into the inner room, Gu Heng couldn't help exhaling, but Yan Mowei gave him a sideways look, "Why don't you open which pot and carry which pot?"

Shen Jiangdong quickly comforted him: "Empress Mingde Li was originally hired to Song Taizong as a proper match, but she was not conferred the title of concubine first."

Who knew that Siqing came out after changing her coat and just heard this sentence, so she sat down and said, "Thank you, I don't have such big ambitions."

Shen Jiangdong seemed to be choked, and suddenly remembered the matter of Empress Mingde Li intervening in the government at the end of Emperor Taizong and wanting to establish another East Palace.I wanted to rescue Gu Heng, but I didn't expect to get into trouble.

At this time, he saw Uncle Lu's two white cats fighting together, and he had nothing to say to Si Qing: "Your Highness's cat—have you found it?"

Jiang Feng immediately gave him a sideways look.

Gu Heng was upset, "So it was your cat that was lost?"

"Yes." Si Qing said.

"Good guy, the guards all over the city are catching cats after they stop arresting people. Is it because your cat is lost?" Gu Heng said again.

"How do you know they won't arrest people anymore?" Siqing laughed.

Gu Heng was speechless, "Uncle Fu, take a look at her, don't you care?"
