Time travel is not a slave

"This is the Zhaixing Pavilion, the highest place in the palace. Let's watch the fireworks here."

Qin Zhan said softly to Shen Shiyi on his shoulder.

Shen Shiyi's eyes were dim, and he nodded.

The empty pavilions on all sides of the Zhaixing Pavilion were covered with window panels, leaving only the side facing the fireworks outside the west city. Inside, a stove was burning with warmth without smoke.

The brilliant fireworks bloom, as if to end the old year and start the new year.

Shen Shiyi leaned on Qin Zhan's shoulders, probably because his body was warm. Although the Zhaixing Pavilion was not cold, but the cold night was heavy, it was more comfortable to lean on a warm place.

"Last New Year's Eve, I seemed to live a more stable life."

Shen Shiyi said suddenly.

"I was alone in the house, watching the night by the fire. I couldn't keep my eyes open, so I fell asleep by the fire. The next day, I felt dizzy and painful. It turned out that I had some coal poisoning. At that time, I thought , or make it heavier, it’s so annoying. There were no such dazzling fireworks back then, nor you, nor the Shen family. The fireworks are beautiful, and the people are really annoying.”

Listening to Shen Shiyi's words, Qin Zhan gave a low "um", and hugged Shen Shiyi's body leaning on his shoulder even more tightly to make her more comfortable, "Or send the Shen family back to Jinmen. As you know, the prefect of Jinmen, he will take good care of the Shen family. In this way, there will be no more annoying people."

Shen Shiyi smiled, and his tone lost the Xiao Suo just now, "No need, I'll do it myself."

Shen Shiyi was impatient with alcohol, and she would drink it after a few glasses, but the alcohol dissipated quickly. After a gorgeous fireworks ended, her alcohol was almost gone. She straightened up from Qin Zhan's shoulder, and turned her head to look at Qin Zhan, who was reflected by the stove With bright eyes, "Let's go, I should go back."

Qin Zhan looked at Shen Shiyi, who had become clear again, stretched out his hand, pulled Shen Shiyi into his arms, and clasped his arms around him. Behind Shen Shiyi, so that she could not avoid it, he lowered his head and stared into Shen Shiyi's eyes , "You're awake, I don't want to wake up yet. I brought you back from Jinmen, so I will naturally protect you. But this year, you have suffered more than before alone..."

Shen Shiyi shook his head, "I'm better now, much better than before. In the past, I always felt that I was a rootless duckweed. I fell asleep with the stove and never woke up again. I have no regrets. Now I have a foundation, I have concerns, which is very good.”

Qin Zhan held Shen Shiyi in his arms, let her lean on his chest, and sighed, "When the annoying things are over, let the emperor marry you, okay?"

Dry hands caressed Shen Shiyi's head. On New Year's Eve, Shen Shiyi was also a little soft. She nodded slightly, "Yes."

This is the first time Qin Zhan has waited for Shen Shiyi to agree, and his heart is excited. He looked down at the person leaning on his shoulder, and couldn't help but want to circle the Shen family, but he knew that Shen Shiyi would not be like this, and his thoughts changed a lot. , only converged into one sentence, "Just do it, I'm behind you."

When Shen Shiyi returned to Shen's house, it was rare that the west courtyard of Shen's house was still brightly lit. Shen Shiyi habitually took a look at the west courtyard, then turned and walked towards the east courtyard.

"Second sister, you are back. Father and mother are waiting for you."

Shen Baozhu suddenly came out from behind the west courtyard door, looked at Shen Shiyi and said.

Shen Shiyi gathered the cloak on his body, waved his hands, "I drank some wine today, and I'm going to sleep."

With that said, Shen Shiyi walked towards the east courtyard.

However, Shen Baozhu hurried up and grabbed Shen Shiyi's arm, "If you keep your parents waiting for so long, Second Sister should go and say hello to your parents, don't let them worry."

Shen Shiyi slapped Shen Baozhu's hand away, and seeing her covering her hand with panting breath, her eyes gleaming with water and anger looking at herself, Shen Shiyi said coldly, "I have always been alone during the Chinese New Year. Have you forgotten, big sister?" ?”

Shen Baozhu was frightened by Shen Shiyi's cold voice, and thought of the huge difference in status between the two of them now, so she held back the anger from the bottom of her heart, and watched Shen Shiyi return to the east courtyard, and even locked the door behind her.

"Baozhu, what's wrong with you? Where's that evil obstacle?"

Shen Baozhu's eyes were wet, she shook her head, walked to Jiang's side, and leaned on her mother, "She has gone back. I asked her to come over and said that Mom and Dad are waiting, but she ignored it."

Jiang Shi became even more angry when she heard this, "The lonely man and widow went with the fourth prince, and he didn't even think about her doing so. It would blacken the Shen family's reputation. What should I do with Baozhu? Baozhu was rejected by the prince, maybe she has it." Instigate, otherwise my son is born beautiful, how could he be looked down upon by men like that."

When Shen Baozhu came back, she told about Wang Qilin's blunt rejection. Jiang was naturally angry. It was Shen Zhaokun who said to wait for Shen Shiyi to come back, and then discuss whether there is room for discussion. Unexpectedly, Shen Shiyi would not come directly.

Shen Zhaokun also had a sullen face at this time, and waited until Jiang's mouth had vented his anger before he said, "This child is not close to us, so don't talk about it in front of her in the future. Prince, you are not worthy of Baozhu." It’s up to you, now that she’s outrightly refusing, stop thinking about it, wait until tomorrow Shiyi comes over and ask her to find you a well-matched candidate or a new official in the Six Departments, a small family and a small family, so that you can live a more comfortable life .”

Shen Zhaokun has been in the capital for many years. Although he doesn't admit it, he clearly knows that he is really not a person who can be counted in this capital. It's just that Shi Yi was let go by the queen, so he has some confidence.At that time, Wang Siye was the number one noble family in Kyoto. The Jiang family and his eldest daughter dared to miss the Wang family.But in his heart, there is still a glimmer of hope.After all, Baozhu was brought up by the husband and wife holding it in the palm of their hands. If they can have a good future, wouldn't their husband and wife, as well as Cong Huan, be able to live a good life along with it?It's better than the smugness of that distant dick.

But right now there is no hope of climbing high, Shen Zhaokun thought of Shen Shiyi again, it seems that the Shen family still has to rely on the second child if they want to gain a foothold in the capital.

Jiang Shi listened to Shen Zhaokun's words, but didn't say a word, but rolled his eyes rarely, and put his arms around Shen Baozhu who was showing aggrieved face, "You don't understand, Baozhu, mother will definitely find a good future for you."

Shen Jinzhu and Shen Conghuan were also in the hall, watching their father and mother arguing with sad faces, and the elder sister looked aggrieved again, and just looked at each other.

"Third sister, second sister is bad, every time she is mentioned, parents will quarrel."

Shen Conghuan was young, only knew how to have fun, but didn't understand people's hearts. At this time, hearing his parents argue for the second sister, the eldest sister looked aggrieved, thinking it was the second sister's fault.

Shen Jinzhu grew up looking at her complexion, although she is only one year older than Shen Conghuan, she knows a lot more. It can be heard that her parents regret treating her second sister badly when she was a child, and now they can't lose face to rely on, can't take advantage of it, and feel aggrieved.

Shen Jinzhu envied that the second sister could wrestle with her parents now, looked at Shen Conghuan and said, "Tomorrow you are free, don't just think about going out to play, it is true to learn some serious skills from the second sister. I am a girl My child, it's useless to learn, you are different, if you want to be an official in the future, you still have to rely on the second sister."

Where did Shen Conghuan think about his future? He was well-clothed and well-fed since he was a child. In the most difficult time for the Shen family, Shen Zhaokun and his wife would not be short of Shen Conghuan, so he never thought about anything. What he thought at the moment was that his parents would not force him to go. School is the best.Hearing Shen Jinzhu's words, Shen Conghuan rolled his eyes, "Father and mother finally have something to do, so they don't stare at me, so I won't make trouble. What if my mother finds out that I'm looking for my second sister, she will hold me back again?" What if I study?"

Seeing what the fourth brother said, Shen Jinzhu wanted to persuade her again, but she heard her mother categorically say, "Tomorrow, I will go to Xie's mansion and greet the old lady!"

Shen Jinzhu didn't understand anything else, but she felt that Xie's house only saw smiling faces on the surface, but in fact she was not allowed to do anything, so she didn't like Xie's house.

Shen Zhaokun frowned even more, "Why do you go to Xie Mansion properly? It's Chinese New Year, and uncle came back from Jinmen to celebrate the New Year. Let's go, so we don't have to disturb the family reunion."

Since that night when he realized that he was in Xie's mansion, Shen Zhaokun didn't want to stay in Xie's mansion anymore, and he felt uncomfortable all over when mentioning it.

Mrs. Jiang didn't know Shen Zhaokun's worries, and only said, "Mrs. Lin wrote me a letter, saying that my uncle came back and wanted our family to go back and have a reunion. It's hard for the whole family to recognize relatives and reunite with each other. Don't let me go because of a little misunderstanding." The birth share. She also mentioned Baozhu, saying that Baozhu is too big, and she should find someone else. The second child doesn't care about her sister, let's go to Xie's mansion to find opportunities, and we can't really let my Baozhu marry those little sesame seeds. Officer?"

Shen Zhaokun opened his mouth, not knowing how to persuade him.He doesn't even have an official status now, and if he can find an official in Kyoto to marry, there is a high probability that people will consider them as timely family members, otherwise, they will not be able to enter the door, let alone a married family.But the second child, Shi Yi, was about to reach the sky in one step and enter the royal family, Jiang and Shen Baozhu's horizons also increased, they didn't look down on the people below, they only looked up.The style of the old man in the pavilion is naturally attractive.But that wasn't a good match after all.However, seeing Jiang's appearance and his daughter's aggrieved expression, it is not easy to pour cold water on him now, so he has to follow the two people's wishes for the time being.

When Shen Shiyi got up early in the morning, Mother Xu told her that the old lady's family had returned to Xie's mansion for New Year's greetings.

Shen Shiyi looked at himself in the mirror, and casually took a jade hairpin and handed it to Xiaocui behind him, "Today I'm also practicing boxing at home, if you don't go out, just tie your hair tightly."

Hearing this, Xiaocui paused for a moment, then tied all of Shen Shiyi's hair in her hands, tied it on top of her head, and fixed it with a hosta.

The first day of the Lunar New Year is a good day to reunite with family members and celebrate the festive season. Shen Shiyi usually spends it alone, but now with Xiaocui, Xu's mother and others, it is considered lively.

Shen Shiyi's meals were always simple, so today he called Xiao Cui and others to his side, and it was rare for them to have a hearty meal.Not long after lunch, a servant came to report. Jiang and his family came back excitedly, and locked the door behind them as soon as they entered the west courtyard.

"Miss, this old slave went over to check on you."

Mother Xu said so.

Shen Shiyi shook his head, "Jiang's other things are not brilliant, and he is quite good at playing tricks at home. You don't have to go, the so-called blessing or misfortune Jiang has something on his mind, it will always be revealed. Just watch."

After a while, Shen Shiyi was tired from shooting arrows, so after washing up, he read a book and gradually became tired. At this time, Shen Zhaokun, who hadn't seen him for a long time, came to the east courtyard.

"I'm looking for you for my father, and I want to talk about something serious."

Shen Zhaokun's face was rarely calm, so Shen Shiyi let him into the study.

"Your brother, it doesn't look like you are always running around like this. Last time at the Meiyuan Literary Conference, your mother came back and said that Wang Siye will recruit a group of candidates to enter the Imperial College after the next year. Although your brother is not a candidate, he can also enter the boyhood Ban. You have some face in the capital now. After all, Cong Huan is your younger brother, and you don’t look good when he makes trouble. If he walks the right path and strives for success, he will be able to help you in the future. "

Guozijian can select outstanding candidates from all over the country to study hard in Beijing. This is another way out for candidates who fail the imperial examination.In addition to juzi, there are also honorable nobles from local families in Kyoto, who will also have a place to study in the Imperial College.Shen Shiyi, a sixth-rank Sicheng, was sent to the Guozijian because she was incapable, but if she moved out of Qin Zhan, a place would be no problem.

Shen Shiyi heard what Shen Zhaokun said, and looked at the person in front of him, "Cong Huan has been in the capital for many years, why do you want to enter the Imperial College this year? With Xie Shangshu's ability, he could have been sent in long ago, right?"

Shen Zhaokun frowned impatiently when he heard the words, "You mention what he is doing, just talk about yourself, can you just say a word!"

Shen Shiyi looked at Shen Zhaokun quietly, "I thought you knew better than your mother..."

Shen Shiyi didn't finish his sentence, so Shen Zhaokun got up and flung his sleeves to leave, leaving a sentence of "Got it", and strode out of the study.

"Miss, the master seems to be serious this time. Since it's about the young master's future, you..."

Xiaocui speaks frankly. She has been an official slave all these years, and she has also seen some difficult things for people. The superior can handle it with a word.So I don't understand Shen Shiyi's thoughts at this time.

Shen Shiyi picked up a book, and opened the place he had seen a few days ago, Xiaocui then fell silent, and walked out lightly.

Shen Shiyi, who was in the room, read even a single word.It was because Shen Zhaokun was uncharacteristically serious that he couldn't agree to this matter.

Their father and daughter, how could they be so confident in their affection for her to make a move?There is also Shen Zhaokun, who has always been foolish, but this time he is so serious, neither stalking nor begging for mercy.If he really values ​​Shen Conghuan's future so much, and gives up so easily, then there is only one explanation, that is, he has other channels to solve the problem of Shen Conghuan's admission to school. He came here today just to ask Shen Shiyi to have an attitude. .

Thinking of Shen Zhaokun's changed face when he came back from Xie's mansion, and thinking that there was a rumor the day before yesterday that Xie Qingshan had returned to Beijing from Jinmen for the New Year, Shen Shiyi thought that it must be Xie Qingshan's words that moved Shen Zhaokun.

This is all obvious, and it is not difficult to guess, but Xie Qingshan has not sent Shen Conghuan to the Imperial College for so many years, but this time he easily promised, what is Shen Zhaokun asking for in exchange?Shen Shiyi couldn't think of anything else but himself.

My uncle and grandfather have already set up a ring for me, but I don't know who will be the first person to appear on the stage?
