Blessed

Chapter 53
Shen Wei cleaned up and changed into a dark green robe embroidered with golden silk moiré patterns and a white jade belt. He was tall and handsome. , a person was walking slowly from the Chaoshou veranda, thinking about something.

The relationship between him and Princess Jiahe is really hard to say. Marrying her at the beginning was at least considered sincere, but she felt wronged by marrying him. In the days after marriage, she always spoke sarcastically. He only married Ji Yunliu after giving birth to the eldest son Shen Xian Those who entered the door, at that time Jiahe didn't care much about Shen Xian, and usually left them to the maidservant to take care of. Ji Yunliu was gentle and honest after entering the door, helping the mansion to take care of the common affairs that Jiahe didn't want to do.

Princess Jiahe ate vegetarian food and chanted scriptures all day long in the Buddhist hall. On the other hand, Ji Shi, who is soft-hearted and weak-boned, could not be biased. Until Ji Shi gave birth to Shen Yan, Jiahe also gave birth to Shen Mei within a few years. She just finished her confinement. She just used the excuse that she was not feeling well and lived in a farmhouse in the countryside, and never fed Ah Mei herself for a day. He had never seen such a cruel mother.

The Ji family almost became his first wife, and was willing to be his concubine regardless of past suspicions. She was also gentle, virtuous, and understanding when she married into the Duke's mansion. She helped take care of Shen Xian and Shen Mei, treating them like her own. , he disliked Jiahe even more, gave Ji a face, loved her, and respected her.

Going to Ji's courtyard, the woman standing under the verandah wanted to enter the room to announce, Shen Wei waved his hand to signal them to leave, he opened the door and entered, bypassed the carved nanmu screen, and saw Ji leaning against the noble concubine On the couch, the fatigue between his brows was evident, he stepped forward to hold Ji's hand, and whispered, "Yunliu, are you okay?"

Ji opened his eyes and struggled to get up, "Master Guo, you are here, these servants are really, if you don't come in and tell me, I have lost my etiquette."

"But is it uncomfortable?" Shen Wei sat down on the imperial concubine's couch, put his hands on her shoulders, and prevented her from getting up, "You don't need to get up, I'll ask someone to take a sign and go to the palace to ask the imperial physician to feel your pulse."

Ji said, "My concubine is fine, it's just that the mansion has been busy with general affairs these few days, and I'm a little tired. It's good to rest for a few days."

"A few days ago, I went to the palace to meet the Holy Majesty, and I gave you root old ginseng." Shen Wei held her hand, "Someone will bring it to your room later, and you let the small kitchen make soup to nourish your body."

Ji's eyes were a little red, "Thank you, Duke Guo, for caring about my concubine so much, what can I do with my concubine."

"Stop talking like that, I, He Dehe, should be able to marry someone as virtuous and gentle as you."

The two talked for a while, before Shen Wei asked, "I heard from the maid that you asked me for something else?"

Only then did Ji look embarrassed, she opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say for a while, and then sighed after a long while, "Master, my concubine is raising a few children in the mansion, and my son was kind to my concubine when I was young." The older I get, the more I don't know how to get it, and I feel strange, the concubine is not his biological mother, and the concubine is not good to take care of him too much. Since, since the last incident, the concubine feels that the son is a bit withdrawn, and I have said a few words to him, but The child has grown up and has his own ideas..."

Shen Wei realized something, "Did that evil animal do something again?"

Ji half sat up, "Grandpa, you are not allowed to talk about the son like that, he is a little withdrawn, although what happened last time was wrong, it was only because you were away all the time at home and there were no male elders to teach..."

"Tell me, what did he do again!" Shen Wei's face was full of frost.

Mrs. Ji sighed, "This time it's about the little princess. Two days ago, the princess fell into the pond and caught the wind and cold. In a rage, the prince killed all the maids and women on duty in the princess' courtyard."

"This evil beast!" Shen Wei slapped his hand on the small desk next to him angrily, "You have to rest first, I still have some things to deal with."

Mrs. Ji hurriedly said, "Master, you must tell your son carefully, don't get angry..."

Shen Wei had already rushed back to the courtyard in anger, and asked the guards to call Shen Xian over. He was the only one left in the secluded study room. He leaned on the grand teacher's chair, thinking of the previous incident, he knew that a maid had crawled into Shen Xian's bed Well, such a servant can be sold with sticks, but he tied her up, made people cut off the flesh of her face, and made people torture and kill that maid.

This is wrong, he has fought in the battlefield all his life, and his methods are also open and aboveboard, why did he need to use this kind of method to shock people, he thinks this is wrong, it is a problem with his conduct.After he found out what happened that time, he was punished to be locked up in the Buddhist hall for a month, but this time he repeated the old trick and killed all the maids and women in the yard with a cane.

The guards quickly took the eldest son to Shen Wei's study. Shen Wei looked at his son with a clear face. He was wearing a big cloak, and his face was like a crown of jade.

Shen Xian opened his mouth first, "Father, why are you looking for me?" His tone was also very indifferent.

Shen Xian said with a cold face, "I heard that you shot all the servants in the yard because of A Mei's matter?" He did not deny the servant girl's dereliction of duty in this matter, but at that time the little princess was only surrounded by four people. The five servants, in order to wake up the servants, he killed the servants in the whole yard with sticks. The method was too cruel, and Shen Wei didn't like his approach.

"Yes, father." Shen Xian didn't defend himself, "It's because they neglected their duties and didn't take good care of A Mei, so they should all be killed. Let's see who else will neglect their duties next time."

"You bastard." Shen Wei patted the case and said angrily, "You should handle things like this? Your methods are so cruel and inhuman, how will you convince the public and the people under you in the future? You are wrong like this , I know I haven't been with you all these years, and I haven't raised you well, so, I will go back to the gate of the dorm in half a month, so you can go with me." He was so angry that he was the only eldest son in the family. , who is only twelve years old, how could he be willing to suffer this, but what he said out of anger, I hope he will be soft.

"Since the father decides, the child must obey." Shen Xian's tone was alienated and indifferent, and he strode out of the study room, only to be left in the study room by the Duke who scolded him as a rebellious son.

After leaving the study room, Shen Xian walked through the verandah, and asked the young man who was following him, "How is the Princess?"

The servant replied, "The imperial doctor came to see him in the morning and said that there is nothing serious, but he still needs to take some decoction for a few days. Besides, the governor of Fuchang county came to see the little princess earlier in the morning, so he probably hasn't left yet."

Shen Xian paused, turned around and walked towards Ningcui Courtyard, the servant followed silently all the way.

Going to Ningcui Courtyard, Hanxiao and a few maidservants guarded under the verandah, and there was no sound in the room. With a smile, she saw Shen Xianfu saluted, "My son, the Lord of Fuchang County is inside, the little princess has taken medicine, and Fu Lord Changxian talked for a while, and I'm afraid he fell asleep right now."

Shen Xian waved his hand to let the maidservant step back, and pushed the door open to enter.

The little princess said she was tired and had already fallen asleep. Yuzhu was leaning on the imperial concubine's couch with her, and was reading a book, a little fascinated, but she didn't hear footsteps until Shen Xian stood still in front of her, tall and She was startled when the shadows covered her. When she looked up and saw him, she called softly, "Brother Shen."

Shen Xian nodded slightly, leaned over to see that Shen Mei was still in good condition, breathing evenly, then he straightened up, looked at the scroll in Yuzhu's hand, "Why did Yuzhu come here today?"

Yuzhu quietly climbed down from the imperial concubine's bed with the book in her hand, Shen Xian put her arms around the little girl to help her, and didn't let go until she stood still.

The two went to the side room, Yuzhu put the scroll in her hand on the case, and solemnly bowed to Shen Xian, "Yuzhu went over today to say thank you to Brother Shen, because several guards followed, little aunt is safe go home."

Shen Xian laughed softly, Yuzhu looked up at him, and saw the handsome young man looking at her with a smile on his face, without the usual indifference and indifference, with curved eyebrows and eyes.Shen Xian slightly leaned over and grabbed Yuzhu's waist, hugged her and sat on the grand teacher's chair, "You don't need to thank me, since you call me Big Brother Shen, you will be treated as your sister just like Ah Mei."

When he said this, Yuzhu felt a little embarrassed.

Both of them were sitting on the grand teacher's chair. Shen Xian flipped through the volume casually. It was a book of experiences and stories. It told the story of a ranger traveling around the world. It was an interesting book. Shen Xian asked, "Can you understand it?"

Yuzhu's heart trembled, she sat upright and said, "I just finished learning the thousand-character prose a few days ago, so I can understand a lot, but I don't understand some parts."

Shen Xian looked through it, "Just ask me if there is anything you don't understand."

Yuzhu just said that, her inner core is dozens of years old, how can she really not understand, seeing Shen Xian looking at her, she can only point to one place and say she doesn't understand.

When Shen Xian explained to her, Yuzhu felt like she was sitting on pins and needles, her little butt writhed on the grand master's chair.Seeing her childish nature, Shen Xian laughed, told a story and stopped talking, he quietly looked at the withered grape clips outside the window, and said slowly, "In a few days, I will go to the shed with my father to close the door, I don’t know when and what month I will return.”

Yuzhu was startled, why, why did she suddenly have to go to the Sanmen Gate?Isn't that the place guarded by the Duke?Dreadful military land.

Shen Xian continued, "A Mei has been in poor health since she was a child. She has stayed in the mansion all year round. She has a weird temper and doesn't like to socialize with others. The best friend she has gotten along with in the past few years is only you. When I leave, I still hope you I can come and accompany her often.”

His temperament is a bit similar to Shen Mei's, withdrawn, he doesn't trust others at will, but he likes the pink and tender Yuzhu'er at the first sight, such a cute little girl, even Shen Mei likes it when she looks at it, he He also has a good impression of her and loves her like a younger sister.

In this world, there are only these two people who can get his love.

Yuzhu grabbed the hem of her clothes tightly, "Brother Shen, why is it so sudden?" Ah Mei has few people in the house who love her, if the prince leaves, how will she, a little girl, live in the house from now on.
