Dressed as the mistress of the Hou family, I became the white moonlight in the Beijing circle

Shen Ji moved his mouth, but didn't say a word.

Xie Li stared into his eyes, feeling increasingly nervous and panicked.

Shen Ji's eyes were a little dodgey, and he said sadly, "Now we have sent people to chase him quickly. Before the news comes back, we can't pinpoint the person behind it."

"Then I can only wait now? Can't I do anything else?" Xie Li looked excited, nameless fire burst out of his heart, and he could barely control his volume.

Shen Ji's eyes were sour, and all he could say could only be turned into a sigh, "The matter has come to this, there is no other way. General Song's only daughter will marry you, and you are a member of the fourth prince's party. So, Song The general can be considered a member of our ship."

"Of course the fourth prince doesn't want to see the loss of a strong general. His current mood is no better than yours..." Shen Ji's thoughts were also a little confused, but he had to stabilize Xie Li first.

"Don't worry, General Song's position is very important. If something goes wrong, the Fourth Prince will definitely try his best to protect him."

Xie Li's eyes showed uneasiness, he took a deep breath and murmured, "I hope so."

Shen Ji raised his hand and patted his shoulder, his furrowed brows not slackening at all, "I will take a rest tomorrow and will wait for news at home. You can go to court with peace of mind and don't reveal your flaws."

Xie Li lowered his eyelids and was silent for a long time before nodding lightly.

"I'm coming back." Shen Ji lowered his arms and whispered, "Be careful and don't let your family worry."

Xie Li's expression moved slightly, he looked at him and whispered, "I understand."

After saying this, Shen Ji turned around, followed his memory, and left the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion.

"There is such a thing!"

Fang Xu suddenly sat up from the imperial concubine chair, his face turned pale and his breathing became a little heavier.

Bai Ji nodded with a solemn expression, "I heard this clearly. General Song was deceived and led his army to leave the capital. The fourth prince has already sent people to chase him!"

Fang Xu was a little stunned. He put his bare hand on his heart and said hoarsely, "No wonder I'm always upset..."

"Madam..." Su Zi frowned and spoke weakly, "Mrs. Shizi's side..."

Fang Xu's eyes flashed, and he calmly ordered, "The result has not yet been determined, so don't let Huixin know about it yet. Although the paper can't contain the fire, this matter is weird. How long can it be hidden?"

"Who would harm General Song?" Bai Ji couldn't figure it out, his little face wrinkled up, and he asked in a low voice, "This order comes from the emperor, it can't be the emperor..."

As soon as the words came out, Fang Xu instantly raised his eyelids and his gaze shot towards Bai Ji like a knife.

Su Zi clicked her tongue and quickly ran to the window and lowered the half-open window, fearing that no one would hear her words.

Bai Ji paused and lowered his head in embarrassment.

"Walls have ears, what are you talking about?" Fang Xu's face turned cold and his eyes were angry, "If someone listens to you, your head will probably move!"

Bai Ji shrank his neck, not daring to say another word.

"Madam, I think what Bai Ji said is not unreasonable..." Su Zi returned to Fang Xu's side, frowning and lowering his voice, "General Song is indeed under orders from the one above, you can't... Then You were also deceived, right?"

Fang Xu's face was solemn, and his eyes became extremely complicated, "How could I not think of what you can think of? How could Master Shen not think of it?"

"There are a lot of people sneaking around secretly. Besides, the mastermind behind this time is the one. Even if we catch the evidence, what can we do to him?" Fang Xu pursed his lips and snorted coldly, "We can't sue him to the government. ?" Bai Ji pursed his lips and murmured in a low voice, "Then it will scare the prefect to the point of peeing..."

Fang Xu pinched the bridge of his nose and looked tired, "It's too late today. Let's rest first. I'll go find the old lady early tomorrow morning and tell her about this."

After finishing his words, he did not forget to say, "Huixin, please seal your mouth tightly."

"Yes."

next day
The sky was bright and foggy, becoming increasingly cold.

Shen Ji sat in the study early. There were many greeting cards piled up in front of him, and one of them was thrown out alone.

Shen Ji's eyebrows were slightly lowered, and he was fascinated by the words "Guogongfu" on the post.

"What is my son doing?"

Hearing the noise, Shen Ji's expression moved slightly, he raised his eyebrows and saw Shen's mother standing at the door holding a plate.

Mother Shen looked at him with a smile, her eyes full of love.

"Mom." Shen Ji raised the corners of his lips and his eyes softened, "Why did you get up so early?"

"I heard your voice was hoarse yesterday. Your father went to cook ginger soup for you early and sent me to bring it to you." Mother Shen put the soup bowl on the table with a kind smile, "My son finally took a day off. , why bother to be busy with political affairs early in the morning?"

Shen Ji put his arms on the table and covered the greeting cards on the table with his long sleeves. He smiled and responded, "Although I am sleeping, I still have no time to rest. My son is used to it."

"The official career is full of ups and downs, and it's not easy to survive in officialdom." Shen's mother sat on a wooden chair not far away, her smile deepened a little, "I'm always busy with my duties, so drink the ginger soup first. To prevent the wind and cold from getting worse.”

Shen Ji smiled helplessly, picked up the porcelain bowl, stirred the ginger soup in the bowl with a spoon, and took a sip.

Looking at her son, Mother Shen looked pleased and suddenly said, "Son, Mom has made a good friend recently."

A little surprise appeared in Shen Ji's eyes. He drank the remaining ginger soup and said warmly, "It's a good thing that I can make friends."

Mother Shen grinned, dropped her hands on her knees, and whispered, "She is a well-known matchmaker in the capital. Mother has entrusted her to serve as your adviser."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Ji almost spat out the ginseng soup he had just drank. He coughed twice, raised his head in disbelief, and asked loudly, "Mom... why are you suddenly thinking about this?"

"You still have the nerve to say that!" Mother Shen glared at him and said angrily, "You are eighty-eight years old this year. You can't be too old to be called an old man. All the relatives and friends around you are already married, and the children are all running around. , look at you again?"

"Both mother and your father are old. Before she dies, all she wants is to see her future grandson! Can't such a simple request satisfy your parents?"

Shen Ji was speechless for a while, but after a long while he persuaded in a low voice, "My son has his own plans, but his ambition has not yet been realized. My son has no plans to get married yet."

"Your ambitions are so big. You have just become a Shangguan. How long will it take for you to realize them?" Shen's mother pursed her lips and said with a dissatisfied look on her face. "Besides, ambitions and having grandchildren are not in conflict!"

Shen Ji was worried in his heart, but it didn't show on his face. He pursed his thin lips tightly, obviously intending to fight with his parents.

"That matchmaker is very reliable. Even if you want a fairy from the sky, she can find it for you!" Shen's mother joked with a smile and waved her hand, "Tell me what kind of woman you like. Mom, ask her to find out for you. inquire about."

Shen Ji's eyes flickered a few times and he said, "My son only likes those who are widowed and still have children." (End of Chapter)
