Embroidered color and fragrance

Chapter 88
As soon as the curtain was lifted, before Zhu Xun could see the inside, there was a bang, and a basin of cold water poured over his head to cool him down.

"Who!" Zhu Xunbing jumped up, pulled his collar, and wiped the water from his face, "Who, who plotted against me!"

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the back of a somewhat familiar woman sneaking into the green gauze cabinet, the curtain was still shaking. When he turned his head again, he saw Shen Zhan sitting on the kang drinking tea in a stable manner. Looking at him, his eyebrows didn't move a little, but there was a smile in his eyes.

"She..." Zhu Xun pointed at the Bisha cabinet, then at Shen Zhan, "You..." and then at himself, "I..."

Shen Zhan put the cup down with a thump, and looked at him leisurely, "You're looking for death?"

"Shen Laoba!" Zhu Xun came back to his soul and jumped up all of a sudden, but his buttocks were hurting from the wound, and he gasped again, "You... what do you mean, you pour cold water on me as soon as I come, I will It's freezing."

As he spoke, he couldn't wait to take off his clothes, so Shen Zhan coughed and said angrily, "Put on your clothes!"

"I'm cold!" Zhu Xun was shivering, "Find me some clothes to wear. Look at my injuries, it hurts me to death." He turned around as he said, and looked at the scars on his back. Welt marks, and pulled down the waistband of the trousers to reveal half of the buttocks, "There are also on the buttocks."

Shen Zhan's face turned dark. This kid must have done it on purpose. He took off his clothes in front of his wife, and he kicked him, "Min Wang, take off his clothes and throw him out."

"Ouch." Zhu Xun held his buttocks and yelled in pain, "Old Ba, Ba Ge, Ba Ye! You are too mean, we are still not brothers." Of course he refused to leave, looking at Shen Zhan eagerly , "Find me a change of clothes. Also, why did you splash me with water."

Finally back to the topic, Su Wanru was so stupid, standing behind the curtain, she couldn't help but spit.

"You don't like it!" Shen Zhan glanced at him, but he didn't really throw him out, pointing outside, "Go to my room to find clothes by yourself."

Zhu Xun looked outside, then at Shen Zhan, glanced at the green gauze cabinet from the corner of his eye, nodded his head and folded his clothes, "Then I'll change clothes, and I'll talk about big things with you when I come back later." run out.

As soon as he went out, Su Wanru ran out from the green gauze closet, clutching her bag, "Shen Zhan, I want to go back. You can come to see me tomorrow." Then she walked outside, Shen Zhan stared at Su Wanru didn't speak, a strange smile flashed across her eyes.

"Ha!" Suddenly, when the door curtain was lifted, Zhu Xun suddenly jumped out from the outside, and said triumphantly, "I want to see who is plotting against me!"

Su Wanru froze for a moment, then looked at Zhu Xun.

"Huh..." Zhu Xun also stood still at the door, tilting his head and looking at Su Wanru.

It's eerily quiet inside and out, and you can hear a needle drop!

Su Wanru glanced back at Shen Zhan, and finally understood what the strangeness in his eyes meant just now... She didn't know Zhu Xun, but Shen Zhan did.

They are not normal people and never play cards according to the rules.

Zhu Xun saw her go in, but didn't ask, and changed his clothes with curiosity, knowing that she would come out as soon as he left...

hateful.

Su Wanru smiled at him, picked up the bundle in her hand and threw it on Zhu Xun's head, "Crazy, grab my braid, believe it or not, I'll shave your head bald."

"Beauty!" Zhu Xun's head exploded, his eyes were red, and before he finished speaking, Su Wanru slapped him several times, and he shouted, "Beauty, beauty, did we have some misunderstanding? Last time I I didn't offend you, why did you do it as soon as we met. You are so good-looking, please be gentle."

Su Wanru hated it even more, and hit her several times in a row.

Shen Zhan was sitting on the side, looking at Zhu Xun happily, this time he didn't need to do anything, Su Wanru cleaned it up by herself.

Her daughter-in-law has a very high vision, a guy like Zhu Xun can only be beaten.

He also said that he is fragrant and sweet, and he is a gold medal!
"Huh!" Zhu Xun yelled again, "No, you said I'd pull your braid?" He has martial arts, unless he stands still, how can Su Wanru hit him, and now he's so old that he'll just jump away. Yuan, staring at Su Wanru, suddenly said: "It's you! That ugly girl in the afternoon."

Su Wanru squinted her eyes, anyway, Shen Zhan was not afraid when she saw it, so what was she afraid of.She was alone in the capital, and it was her fault that she caused the sky to fall. No one can blame her for being implicated by her in the future!
She turned her heart, smiled at Zhu Xun, and said, "Master, what a coincidence."

There was a buzzing in Zhu Xun's head, and he couldn't figure out the situation for a while. He looked at Shen Zhan and then at Su Wanru, and asked doubtfully, "What's your relationship with Lao Ba?" Then he said, "And what's your relationship with Zhao Zhongyuan."

Su Wanru folded her arms and looked at him with a kind smile on her face.

"I understand." Zhu Xun's eyes lit up, and he pointed at Su Wanru, "I'm so angry that I'm so confidant!"

Many things were strung together in his mind. After meeting Su Wanru for the first time, he called out "beauty", and then Shen Zhan beat him up for no reason. Today he grabbed her by the braid, and Shen Zhan threw a knife out. ...

The fight between Shen Zhan and Zhao Zhongyuan was nothing serious at all.

The two of them were just for the poisonous little girl in front of him. He said a few times, as if he had discovered a big secret, and pointed at Su Wanru, "So that's it, I understand."

"What do you know?" Su Wanru looked at him and said, "Tell me."

Zhu Xun said: "You and Lao Ba are in collusion, and you have secretly communicated with Zhao Zhongyuan... You can't be a spy from somewhere, are you, to use the beauty trick to sow discord?" The beauty trick was very successful.

Su Wanru was still smiling, and turned her head to cast a glance at Shen Zhan, who was pinching his knuckles, telling him to stay calm!
"It must be." Zhu Xun was dazed by Su Wanru's smile, pointed at her and said, "You...you don't want to trick me, do you?"

Su Wanru took two steps back, and then a black shadow rushed over, and Zhu Xun heard a scream, and was thrown to the ground, and was beaten up.

"You don't want to live anymore, do you? Talk to my wife like that, she tricks you, where's the face from you!" Before he got angry in the afternoon, he came to the door right now, Shen Zhan wanted to kill him he.

Zhu Xun held his head and screamed, but Shen Zhan cut his hands backwards and shouted, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, I was wrong!"

"Where is it wrong?" Su Wanru squatted in front of him, "Tell me."

Zhu Xun wanted to cry, but said, "I shouldn't be open-mouthed, and I shouldn't be pulling your pigtails. Or, you can pull my pigtails too, okay?"

"Master Hou." Su Wanru looked at Shen Zhan, "I want to visit Marquis Changxing, do you think it's appropriate?"

Shen Zhan nodded, "Appropriate!"

"Don't!" Zhu Xun regretted endlessly, he shouldn't have come here today, he shouldn't have stopped this woman, why is he so unlucky, "I was wrong, I was wrong!"

Su Wanru coughed, "Do you remember?"

"Think!" Zhu Xun nodded.

Su Wanru smiled and said, "It's okay when you think about it, you have to promise me one thing."

"What's the matter?" Zhu Xun felt that he had been tricked, but he knew it was a trap and he still had to jump, because life was more important, "As long as it doesn't violate human ethics, doesn't betray the family and country, and doesn't harm others..." He was rambling After talking a lot, Su Wanru became extremely irritable, patted his head, and said, "Shut up!"

Zhu Xun shut up.

"I can't think of it now. But remember, you promised me something today." Su Wanru said: "I will go to you in three days, and you have to do this for me. If you go back on your word, I will visit you Dad, tell him you're out there messing around."

Zhu Xun felt that this was a bad thing, but he nodded anyway.

Shen Zhan let go of his hand, and Zhu Xun sat on the ground with his wrists turned in pain, looking at Su Wanru with aggrieved eyes, "You guys are too deceitful."

"You deserve it." Su Wanru said, "You have nothing to do and find something to do." Her eyes light up when she sees a woman, she annoys this kind of person the most.

Loafing around, dude!
Zhu Xun looked at Shen Zhan sadly, Shen Zhan rolled his eyes at him, he got up and said strangely: "Brother, this girl can't really be the girl you said."

"It's your sister-in-law!" Shen Zhan said, looking at Su Wanru softly, and patted the seat beside him, "Come and sit."

Su Wanru was very face-saving and went to sit next to Shen Zhan.

Shen Zhan shook her hand and rubbed it, frowned and said, "Does it hurt?"

"No." Su Wanru replied: "It was beaten with a bundle, but it didn't touch hands."

Shen Zhan nodded, relieved.

Zhu Xun opened his mouth and couldn't close it for a long time. After a long time, he sat down again with a thud, and then the wound opened and he jumped up in pain again, with tears in his eyes, and said: "Myna, you are still the majestic one in my memory. , killing Shen Zhan everywhere?"

Shen Zhan raised his eyebrows, and said in a provocative tone, "Try?"

"This..." Zhu Xun couldn't believe it, but looking at Su Wanru's face, he felt understandable. This girl is good-looking, but no matter how good-looking she is, she can't even lose face for a woman, right? "Brother, you I'm so disappointed."

Su Wanru looked at him with her chin raised, and smiled at him.

"Don't!" Zhu Xun waved his hands, "Don't smile at me. Your smile is too permeable." This girl was probably transformed into a goblin.

Su Wanru ignored him, Zhu Xun gathered his clothes and remembered that he was wet, he couldn't help shaking again, looked at the two people and said: "I'll go change." He said he wanted to go out, Shen Zhan said Said: "Take this."

As he said that, he threw a bottle over, Zhu Xun caught it and walked out the door with a grin.

It's medicine!Su Wanru took a serious look at Shen Zhan, but said nothing.

"Let's rest here tonight, you can choose the room you want, and I promise not to visit you at night." The two talked for a while, Shen Zhan took her hand and coaxed, "OK."

Su Wanru wanted to know what Zhu Xun would say later, so she nodded, "Okay!"

Shen Zhan held her face and kissed her, and just as he let go, he heard someone snort at the door, and muttered in a sour tone: "It's great to have a wife."

"There's a lot of nonsense." Shen Zhan frowned, and said angrily: "Tell me, what's the matter, I came here to get beaten in a sudden surprise."

Only then did Zhu Xun remember something serious, sat down swayingly, but stood up in pain, and said, "The Holy Majesty said today that he would marry Zhao Zhongyuan and you!" The tone said, "I didn't know that the two of you were so idle that you actually had time to lead people into group fights. It seems that it's time to start a family and start a business, and find someone to take care of it."

Shen Zhan's face darkened.

Su Wanru's eyes lit up, Zhao Zhiang finally did something sensible.

"Old Ba, you can't agree to this matter. Who knows what's wrong with the marriage giver. Don't talk about virtue, at least you have to look good." Zhu Xun said and cast a glance at Su Wanru, "I have to. Only seven or eight points of her will do."

"Where are you looking?" Shen Zhan gave him a warning look, and asked, "Didn't I say I would give you a marriage together?"

Zhu Xun choked, coughed in embarrassment, and muttered: "Thank you."

Wanting to persuade him to resist, so that he could reap the benefits of being a fisherman, Shen Zhan said with a half-smile: "The wound on your body was caused by Marquis Changxing?"

"Hmm." Zhu Xun froze.

As soon as he entered the palace, his father was already waiting in the imperial study room, and when he saw him, he dragged him out without saying a word, and whipped the whip hidden in his sleeve in front of the Holy Majesty. .

How wronged he is, he really didn't do anything today.

"It deserves it!" Su Wanru looked at him and said, "If you don't grab me, you won't be beaten if you try to persuade me to fight."

Zhu Xun's eyes widened when he heard this, and he looked at Su Wanru and said, "It's all because of you, if you don't run away, can I go after you?"

"You are a prodigal son, you are right to hit me." Su Wanru sneered, "You still have the strength to argue with me, I think it's a light blow."

Zhu Xun was furious, and pointed at Su Wanru, "You... just wait for me."

"Wait, how about it!" Shen Zhan coughed, Zhu Xun was speechless immediately, and muttered: "You guys bully people together!"

With that said, he turned his head angrily and ignored them.

Shen Zhan just drank tea, Su Wanru ignored him, she was thinking about the marriage offer...Shen Zhan and Zhao Yan probably wouldn't agree, although they might not be able to control their own marriage, but it's true that they The head is on, and I don't want to be meat on the chopping board.

"Giving a marriage is also good." Su Wanru decided to persuade Zhu Xun, and by the way told Shen Zhan, "Think about it, you will get married sooner or later, you are always invisible to the ladies in the capital, but you don't Maybe just marry someone with a bad family background, then it's better to give the saint a face, right."

"Besides, it's hard to violate the sacred order. You weigh the weight, are you capable of doing something that violates the sacred order, and if you don't, you'd better be honest. You can't afford the consequences."

"Have you ever lived with your father? This meal of whips is just an appetizer, and there may be more ruthless ones later."

Zhu Xun was taken aback by what Su Wanru said, but Shen Zhan looked at her with a half-smile and didn't speak.

She decided to talk more, or at least make an effort.

"Also. This marriage is a good match. Even if the lady of everyone is not very good-looking, she must have a good temper, and she is not bad at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is a perfect match for you." He said again: "Besides, This is a marriage. It is good for you and your family to marry two surnames. You have just been awarded the title, don't look at the achievements of the dragon, but one day your father will go, and your family will rely on you to support the lintel. Tell me what you support. Is it based on military merits, or you hang yourself for crying and making troubles."

Zhu Xun's eyes moved, obviously moved by her words.

"Zhu Shizi." Su Wanru got up, looked at him with a kind tone, persuasive, "If you are afraid that you won't find someone you like, then turn passive into active, and go to inquire quietly by yourself. After you have selected a candidate, invite someone to go The premise of the saint is that as long as it is suitable, you will complete a major event in life with an imperial decree. In the future, your father will not care about you, and you can fly freely in the sea and sky, how wonderful!"

Zhu Xun didn't speak, Su Wanru sat back, gave him a look of "I'm doing it for you", looked sideways at Shen Zhan, and nodded to him earnestly and encouragingly.

What I said applies to Zhu Xun, and it also applies to you.

Shen Zhan squinted his eyes, clenched his fists, and his knuckles creaked. If Zhu Xun wasn't here, he would have knocked her down and beat her up.

Su Wanru's eyes flickered, she held the tea and drank it with her head down, and stopped talking.

"It makes sense." Zhu Xun nodded and said, "Anyway, I want to get married, and I can't meet someone I like anyway, so it's the same with whoever gets married, there is no difference."

He walked back and forth in the room, "It makes sense."

Su Wanru nodded her head in agreement, "Surely it makes sense, how could I harm you, right?" She added: "Think about it, you're an adult when you get married, and your father won't be so dishonorable with the whip. Even if he wants to do something, he has to give his daughter-in-law some face."

Zhu Xun nodded and gave him a thumbs up, "It makes sense."

Su Wanru acted like an elder, nodding her head and said: "Go quickly, go and tell the Holy One that you all agree."

"Okay." Zhu Xun said as he walked outside, and suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing behind him, he gave way instinctively, and with a bang, the tea cup flew out of his head and hit the door frame, sinking Zhan Yinze's voice sounded, "Where is your brain growing? After hearing her say a few words, you will believe it completely?"

This white-eyed wolf is not persuading Zhu Xun, he is clearly persuading him.

He turned back and poked Su Wanru's head again, "Don't play tricks with me, I'll tell you. It's the marriage bestowed by the Holy One, and I have a way to make her die suddenly."

"It's so cruel." Su Wanru slapped her mouth, she didn't quarrel with Shen Zhan in front of Zhu Xun, and saved him some face, "Okay, what Master Hou said is right." She smiled at him as she spoke. .

Shen Zhan felt comfortable.

"That's right." Zhao Zhuxun turned his head and stared at Su Wanru, "Why should I listen to what you said. I won't get married, I can't find someone I like, and I won't marry anyone!"

Su Wanru gave him a blank look, "Am I talking nonsense. Think about it yourself."

"I've thought about it." Zhu Xun didn't leave, and looked at Shen Zhan, "Baye, myna, think of a way."

Shen Zhan pursed his lips, sneered, and said, "I don't want to!" Why should he go to the holy place, besides, he is not afraid of giving a marriage, at worst, he will kill that woman.But Zhao Yan is different, does he dare to kill the other party?

If you can't kill her, just marry honestly, and wait until you get engaged to see if he still has time to think about her wife.

Su Wanru just looked at him with contempt, she could guess what Shen Zhan was thinking!
As long as you have an idea, Zhao Zhongyuan also has a way.

"Then what should we do!" Zhu Xun had one head and two big ones, Su Wanru's eyes lit up and she waved at him, "If you really don't want to get married, don't want to be married, I have a solution, do you want to hear it?"

Zhu Xun looked at her suspiciously, "You...help me?" He was lying to him just now.

"Yes." Su Wanru said: "Based on my relationship with Lord Hou, I will not harm you."

Zhu Xun doesn't believe her at all, this girl is a ghost, she might be sold out by her, "You should think about yourself. For a while, I flirted with my starling, and for a while, I secretly communicated with King Ning. I've never seen a woman like you, it's terrible."

"Say it again." Su Wanru was furious, pointed at Shen Zhan and said, "Did you hear that, help me teach him a lesson."

Shen Zhan raised his foot and kicked, Zhu Xunzi jumped away and ran away, shouting as he ran, "It's so boring for you to bully people together."

Su Wanru drank tea with a straight face.

Shen Zhan turned his head to look at her, and poked her forehead, "Even Zhu Zhengyan knows about you, so where do you let Master's face go?"

"Shen Zhan!" Su Wanru said angrily: "You have to make it clear that you said whether you are a daughter-in-law or not, and I never agreed to it from the beginning to the end. Also, Prince Ning didn't reveal what he meant to me, and I didn't care about him either." Even if there is, so what, you can ask King Ning if he dares to marry me back to be the princess. "

Right!It is impossible for Zhao Zhongyuan to marry her as a princess, and it is impossible for Su Wanru to marry him as a side concubine.

It's impossible for these two people to say anything.

"Little girl." Shen Zhan said with a smile, "Let's go, Master will accompany you to bed."

Su Wanru glared at him, gnashing her teeth, Shen Zhan immediately changed her words, "Master will send you back to your room to sleep." After that, he would not come out.

"I'll go by myself." She pushed him away carrying the bag and walked out, with Shen Zhan sticking behind.

The next morning, Su Wanru got up early and was about to leave with her luggage. As soon as she got out of the yard, she saw a shirtless person wielding a knife in the snow, jumping up and down, and her figure was light and flexible. stupefied.

"Master, isn't it pretty?" Shen Zhan came over with a knife, sweating all over, leaned over and kissed her, "Why don't you sleep more, it's still early."

Su Wanru pushed him away, and said with disgust: "Your clothes are not rented and you have to pay rent, you are shirtless all day long."

"I'm used to it." He wiped off his sweat, and dragged him into his yard. "This morning, my master had someone stew bird's nest for you. I heard that women eat it well, so I just asked someone to get it!"

Su Wanru slapped her lips, and said, "I'm going back to the embroidery workshop. I don't know how to deal with the rest of the things yesterday, so I'm going to go back and have a look."

"I'll take you back after dinner. I'm going to the palace early this morning." Shen Zhan pointed to the Nuan Pavilion, and the two went in. Shen Zhan wiped his clothes casually, put on his clothes, and had breakfast together. Take her back by car.

As soon as he turned back, he saw a man squatting in front of his house. When he saw him, he jumped up and shouted: "Old Ba."

Shen Zhan stopped his horse and looked at him, Zhu Xun got on his own horse, "Are you going to the palace, I will go with you."

"Let's go." Shen Zhan nodded. As soon as the two of them started, they saw a sedan chair coming out of the alley of the opposite house. Zha Rongsheng followed the sedan chair. Zhu Xun saw that his eyes lit up, and he waved and shouted: "Master Ning, good morning!" !"

When Zha Rongsheng saw Shen Zhan, he snorted and didn't speak.

Zhao Yan lifted the curtain to look over, smiled slightly, and said, "Master, good morning!" Shen Zhan was ignored.

"You guys go first." Shen Zhan straightened his clothes, "I just sent the little girl back, I have to wash and change clothes, she is too noisy, this clothes are wrinkled, not good!"

With that said, he rode away with his head held high.

Zhu Xun was stunned, turned to look at Zhao Yan, Zhao Yan smiled at him, and put down the curtain.

"This..." The corners of Zhu Xun's mouth trembled, he looked at Shen Zhan's back again, and said to himself, "Brother, are you showing off?"

Just that girl, two people fighting like this?

Pretty is beautiful, but thinking of Su Wanru's poisonous mouth, he couldn't help but feel his scalp go numb.

The two walked very slowly, so when they arrived at the imperial study, Shen Zhan also arrived. Eunuch Tu, who was beside Zhao Zhiang, bowed to the three of them, and said, "Wait a moment, the slaves will report back."

"Master Hou." Zhu Xun talked to Shen Zhan, "If the Holy Majesty asks you to marry him later, you must not agree."

Shen Zhan glanced at him and said nothing.

"My lord." Zhu Xun leaned over to talk to Zhao Yan again, "My lord, the Holy Majesty will mention the marriage offer later, you must remember to decline."

Zhao Yan smiled at him and said nothing.

The door of the imperial study room opened, Eunuch Tu smiled and said, "Xuan!"

The three of them entered the imperial study one after the other. Zhao Zhiang was wearing a dragon robe and sitting behind the table. Probably because he had spent the past few decades on the battlefield and suffered a lot from a low background. He looked about sixty years old. His face is full of wrinkles, but his eyes are clear and majestic.

The three saluted, Zhao Zhiang put down the vermilion pen in his hand, leaned on the dragon chair and looked at Shen Zhan, "I heard that you were injured in a fight?"

"Yes." Shen Zhan replied: "But after resting overnight, it's already fine!"

Zhao Zhiang just smiled and said: "Nowadays the world is peaceful, but my general is not willing to be idle, fighting with others in the street to train soldiers, I am really pleased."

Shen Zhan didn't speak, but lowered his eyes.

"And my son." Zhao Zhiang mocked, "I don't even know that this frail son has a good fist and kick, and he can even fight my beloved general. It seems that Cao Enqing can come back and replace you The three went."

Zhao Yan also lowered his head and did not speak.

"And you." Zhao Zhiang pointed at Zhu Xun again, "You owe it to your father to clean up. You didn't persuade them when they were fighting, and you were still watching the fun by pulling the little girl's braid!"

Zhu Xun wanted to cry but had no tears.

"Let's talk about it." Zhao Zhiang asked: "There are fights and quarrels, and there must be a reason for being young and energetic to disagree. If you are all together, let's talk about the reason with me."

Shen Zhan didn't say anything, Zhao Yan didn't say anything, Zhu Xun looked around and replied, "My lord, I don't know!"

"Did I ask you?" Zhao Zhiang slapped the table and shouted, "Kneel at the door for me!"

Zhu Xun ran to the door and knelt dejectedly. The wind from outside rushed in from under the threshold, and he shivered from the cold.

"Who will speak first?" Zhao Zhiang turned his eyes to look at Zhao Yan, "Say it!"

Zhao Yan glanced at Shen Zhan from the corner of his eye, stepped forward and bowed back and said, "Return to father, my son and Marquis of Zhennan were in Yingtian, and they were unhappy because of the interrogation of a few bandits."

"Go ahead!" Zhao Zhiang said.

Zhao Yan sighed, and said: "The Marquis of Zhennan is galloping on the battlefield, his methods are sophisticated, and his interrogation is unavoidably straightforward... My son has never seen this before, and I just think it is cruel. I argued for a few words, and almost made a move at that time... ..."

Zhao Zhiang frowned and looked at Shen Zhan, "Is that so?"

"Yes!" Shen Zhan nodded.

Zhao Zhiang sneered, showing a look of understanding, "My love will never show mercy to the enemy, everyone in the world knows that. My son has read poetry and books since he was a child, and he is as lofty and outstanding as a literati. He can understand even if he can't see killing. .”

Zhu Xun, who was kneeling at the door, nodded his head in agreement, "Yes, it's just that there are differences of opinion and turmoil."

"Shut up!" Zhao Zhiang pointed at Zhu Xun, then turned his head and pointed at Zhao Yan, "You also know that you have read a lot of poetry and books, and you are noble and outstanding. If you have conflicts, don't talk about it, and you will fight." Pointing to Shen Zhan, "I I expect you to go out and kill the enemy, but you are fighting in the city, you are idle and your bones are hurting, right?"

The two of them had nothing to say, they looked down at their feet.

"It's all free. Shen Zhan has just received an errand from the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army. Zhao Zhongyuan, what do you say you are doing?" He paused as he spoke, and said, "Chen Sichang of the Imperial Academy is compiling the "Zhou Lu Da Ceremony", and you report it today , I will follow him to compile books in the future.”

Zhao Yan's eyes moved, and he nodded.

"I told the queen that I will choose a suitable marriage for you, and your marriage will be done within the next year." Zhao Zhiang also looked at Shen Zhan, "You find your mother when you are free, and let her check it out. You treat the marriage as a son, but she is still blaming me in her heart when she turns back."

Shen Zhan replied: "Yes! Send someone to look for it now."

Zhao Zhiang was surprised that neither of them objected to the marriage, especially the rebellious Shen Zhan, "You really agreed?"

"Agree!" The two said in unison.

"Okay!" Zhao Zhiang finally felt much more at ease when he took the case of the dragon, "If you are all as well-behaved as you are now, I don't have to worry about you. There are still fights, one of my sons, one of my generals, just in the street You come and I fight together, it's not ashamed to be ashamed."

Zhao Zhiang became angry while talking, and pointed to the corridor outside, "Eunuch Tu, get three brooms, let them clean the outside, when it's clean, when will you go back."

Shen Zhan and Zhao Yan had no intention of objecting at all, and they should have left the door by bowing.

Zhu Xun was dumbfounded, followed him out, took the broom, "Master Hou, do you really agree?"

"Do you dare to resist the order?" Shen Zhan asked back.

Unwilling to give up, Zhu Xun asked Zhao Yan again, "My lord, do you agree?"

"Father's fate is hard to break." Zhao Yan glanced at Shen Zhan and smiled faintly, "Since we have to get married, it's better to go earlier, and one day we can see a house full of children and grandchildren."

The corners of Zhu Xun's mouth trembled, and he swung the sweeper to sweep the floor cracklingly. Eunuch Tu followed behind and shouted, "My lord, my lord, if you sweep like this, you will throw up ashes, turn around and choke on your majesty."

"Got it, got it." Zhu Xun waved his hand and muttered impatiently, "Why do you want to give me a marriage, and I didn't fight."

Shen Zhan glanced at Zhao Yan provocatively, and said in a deep voice: "After the prince gets married, he will leave Beijing. The fief should be settled earlier, so as to avoid making mistakes again. The Holy Majesty will withdraw the franchise and choose the fief for you personally."

"Don't worry about it, Lord Hou." Zhao Yan smiled lightly, "There are a few elder brothers who have not yet married, and my marriage may have to wait. On the contrary, Lord Hou, who is young and vigorous, supporting the lintel alone, should get married as soon as possible. .”

Shen Zhan raised his eyebrows and said: "You are right. I originally decided to get married at the end of the year, but it was too hasty and I was afraid that I would slow her down."

"Why didn't you mention it just now?" Zhao Yan chuckled lightly, with a mocking tone, "Is it because I came here reluctantly, afraid that she would escape again?"

Shen Zhan threw the broom on the ground, and said, "It's out of love for her to escape, you can only see my private affairs with her."

Zhao Yan's face darkened, thinking of Su Wanru's attitude with Shen Zhan, he didn't speak.

Zhu Xun looked at the two thoughtfully, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, clapped his hands and walked over and said: "I see, you are holding back your energy to cheat each other." Thinking of his own innocence, he said angrily: "childish!"

Zhao Yan and Shen Zhan ignored him.

"What are you doing?" The fourth prince, Zhao Xu, and the seventh prince, Zhao Dong, are together. Zhao Xu is a little bit blessed, because his left leg is lame due to an injury in his early years, and people can see his belly every step he takes. With bumpy flesh, the seventh prince, Zhao Dong, was tall and thin with big eyes. At first glance, he thought he was a boy of seventeen or eighteen.

Zhao Yan stopped and cupped his hands, said: "Fourth Brother, Seventh Brother!" Then said: "I feel that the corridor is a little dirty, we happened to be idle, so we swept it together."

"Ha." Zhao Xu thought it was funny, leaned against the wall and laughed for a long time, then pointed at Shen Zhan, "You can just sweep it, but Shen Laoba also sweeps the floor."

Shen Zhan cupped his hands in a perfunctory manner, and said, "Move your muscles. Your Highness will come and try."

"Don't!" Zhao Xu smiled, and pulled Zhao Dong to gloat, "Let's go quickly, so as not to be swept up in ashes by them."

Zhao Dong glanced at everyone, his eyes swept over Zhao Yan and Shen Zhan, he smiled and turned to go to the imperial study room. When he came out, there was no one outside, and the smile on Zhao Xu's face also stopped, and he whispered Said: "It is said that the dispute was caused by the cruel method of interrogating the prisoner? This reason is so good that even the emperor believes it."

This contradiction is so ingeniously stated that it is difficult for the listener to decide who is right or wrong.

"Don't forget how he became the king." Zhao Dong sneered and said, "Zhao Zhongyuan has never been stupid."

Zhao Xu nodded, frowned and said: "Nothing was found out in Zhongdu. Zhao Zhiting was still supervising the work, and he couldn't come back years ago." He added: "But this is also very good, at least Zhao Zhongyuan is not possible. Get Shen Zhan!"

"Shen Zhan has been in secret contact with the crown prince for a long time, and even the emperor knows about it." Zhao Dong replied, "Shen Zhan, don't think about it."

Zhao Xu didn't speak, but he was dissatisfied in his heart, "You have heard about the Five Armies Commander's Mansion. He told his father that he would spread the camps and guards. Why did you and I never think of such a piece of gold? Shen Zhan, fight for it." If not, we must not keep him."

"Wait a little longer." Zhao Dong said in a deep voice: "Father cannot do without him now. He still counts on Shen Zhan and Changxing Hou to lead troops to destroy Dari Achi. Even if he has made a big mistake now, He is still the fierce tiger on the desk of Father Huangshou Town, higher than you and me."

Zhao Xu knew it very well, that's why he wanted Shen Zhan, but Shen Zhan was not an idiot, and he didn't come here just for a little favor.

"It's not that he respects the prince too much, it's just because his name is right and he is reliable in dealing with him." Zhao Xu dismissed, "Otherwise, you think that with the prince's virtue, what ability can people respect and rely on?"

Zhao Dong has no objection to this point, and he also despises the crown prince and his useless son.

The two chatted and went out the door.

Su Wanru was sitting in Aunt Huo's room talking, and Zhou Xian forced her to ask, "Does King Ning like you? What is he going to do? Is he going to take you into his mansion? Will he make you a side concubine?" ?”

"What side concubine, do you think I can be a side concubine with my identity?" Su Wanru gave Zhou Xian a white look, and Zhou Xian said, "Why not, when you have an heir, it's best to have a son, so you can be a mother and a son." You are now a side concubine, he likes you so much, he will definitely fight for you."

"Besides, he has a fief. When you go to the fief, you'll be the one who dominates the concubine. As long as the prince protects you, you will be more beautiful than the concubine."

Su Wanru looked at her helplessly, "Then you go?"

"Don't!" Zhou Xian laughed, "I'm not as good-looking as you, the prince doesn't like me. Besides, I want to marry a pork seller as the main wife."

Su Wanru knocked her on the head, "Then you still persuade me to be a concubine."

"Isn't it different? He's a prince!" Zhou Xian said, looking at Aunt Huo, and said, "Auntie, you're right."

Aunt Huo shook her head amusedly, looked at the two of them, and said, "Su Jin is very successful, so don't give her any random ideas." She could see that Su Wanru didn't intend to seek wealth and status, which should be There are other secrets.

"Guan Mo came here last night." Aunt Huo said, "The matter of embroidery has been settled, but now we have another problem. There are so many jobs coming at once, and we still don't have enough manpower."

Su Wanru thinks about it, and frowned and said: "We have to think of a way." She paused, and said in a low voice: "There are so many embroidery workshops in Beijing, aunt sent someone to inquire, is there anyone who can't support it?" Yes, we will bring them together, not necessarily who will belong to whom, we can seek common development together.”

Aunt Huo's eyes lit up, she nodded and said, "I'll do this for two days."

"Su Jin, Su Jin." Zhou Xian pulled Su Wanru and said, "The Marquis of Zhennan beat them all up, you know. Before we left, the yamen servants over there rushed in, and each of them took this thick one." The stick..." She gestured that her arms were so thick, "I was so scared to death, I heard screams behind me, I guess I'll have to lie down for half a year if I don't die."

Su Wanru didn't care about them, so she looked at the time and said, "We've vented our anger, and we haven't denounced them for cheating yet." She yawned again, "I'll go back to my room for a while, and come back to work later. Auntie ,Fine?"

Aunt Huo laughed, nodded and said: "You are indeed tired, and your complexion is not very good, go and rest, I am here."

Su Wanru smiled and nodded and went out the door, but instead of going back to her room, she went to the sidewalk. As soon as the door was closed, Duan Zhen was already waiting for her inside, walking back and forth, "Princess, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. You guys did a good job yesterday. You didn't rush out to protect me, otherwise it would be hard for everyone to turn back." Su Wanru breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I plan to go to the clan mansion to meet my second brother first, and wait Once it's arranged, I'll let you guys know."

"You have a solution?" Duan was shocked, "Don't take any risks."

Su Wanru nodded, and said: "Don't worry, I won't be aggressive about things I'm not sure about." Then she said: "Go back and tell everyone not to be impatient, and do what you have to do. Without my order, no one is allowed to act rashly." . Just live the same life as before.”

"Yes." Duan Zhen said yes, and said a few words with Su Wanru before leaving.

Su Wanru went back to her room, changed her clothes, washed and lay down for a while. In the afternoon, she worked in the showroom. After dark, everyone sat together to eat and talk about what happened yesterday. Several children ran around the table, it was very lively.

After dinner, everyone was not in a hurry to leave. They all stayed behind to light the lamps and continue working. The children sat on the floor and played. Su Wanru's eyelids kept twitching, feeling restless.

Could it be that Shen Zhan had an accident in the palace and was punished by the Holy Majesty?

Probably not, the Holy Majesty only said to give him a marriage, he didn't say to punish him, and he would never be willing to punish Shen Zhan.

She went out with a lot of preoccupations, and as soon as she reached the entrance of the alley, she heard a thumping sound coming from inside. Her heart skipped a beat and she turned around to see if there was no one else, so she hurriedly opened the door that led to it. , rushed over in a hurry, and said: "Princess, something happened."

"What's the matter?" Su Wanru's eyelids twitched more and more, and she saw Hu Shisanniang knelt on the ground with a thud, and said in a choked voice, "Song Qiao is gone. He planned to tie up the Fifth Prince yesterday, but later because of the fight over there Didn't succeed, today..."

Su Wanru immediately thought of that aggressive young man.
