Chapter 117

In this life, she has been to the Fucheng of Daming Mansion, and the Fucheng near Daming Mansion, and what she saw and heard was very novel.If there is a chance, she wants to go out for a walk, she doesn't want to be trapped in the backyard for the rest of her life.

Although the steward council is a means of survival, it is not a necessary means.

There are many things you can do while alive, such as traveling all over the world?Eat all over the country?

"Really?" The sixth prince was ecstatic. In his opinion, women rarely endure hardships. It's okay to let them embroider and read books in the backyard, or secretly intrigue or something, just to compete for a man's attention. , just can't travel far.

Going out to travel and see is really not a comfortable thing. It is easy to say, but the official road is not very smooth.Just riding in a carriage is a big deal, as well as eating and drinking, it's okay in the town, but when you get out of the city, that's the big problem.

Then there is the wind and the sun. Women care about their skin the most. If the wind blows for a long time, the skin on the face will become chapped. If the sun is exposed for a long time, the skin will turn dark.Too cold to be unbearable, too hot to be unbearable.

Men don't care if they don't take a bath for half a month, and women can't live if they don't take a bath for half a month.

So, at first, the sixth prince really did not expect Shen Ruyi to agree.He also thought that if Ruyi refused to agree, he would spend more time, three to five years, and let Ruyi go out with him once, at worst, once a year.

The rest of the time, you can go alone.

Unexpectedly, Shen Ruyi agreed immediately.At this moment, the sixth prince hesitated: "Ruyi, do you really want to understand? You really promised me? Let me tell you first, going out is not a particularly comfortable thing. Even if we can bring a lot of people, sometimes we have to eat dry food for several days in a row. If there is no running water on the road, the toilet cannot be cleaned for several days. If there is no town for several days, we will not be able to eat dry food. They can eat prey in the wild, but sometimes there is no prey, for example, when it snows in winter, there is no prey, not even wild vegetables.”

Shen Ruyi raised her eyebrows: "Are you planning to escape? This is not a trip at all. Before going out, won't you ask someone to make a route? Let's just choose a few prefectures and stay in one prefecture for a period of time each time. During this period of time, we can go out of the city to play, and we can also play in the Fucheng, but we can’t make it to the next Fucheng in three to five days, so there is no village or town on the way?"

"Well, I just don't want to. It will be too difficult when you go out with me." The sixth prince rubbed his nose and smiled embarrassedly. To be honest, he himself is actually inexperienced, but he said before that he wanted to go out. If he leaves, his father and his brothers will find all kinds of excuses to scare him. After a long time, he really thinks that going out is a very difficult thing.

Men can suffer, but how can men make their women suffer?

No, I have to study it carefully when I go back, at least I have to improve the carriage so that it will not be so bumpy when running on the road.There is also the route, which must be prepared in advance, and the dry food prepared on the road must be sufficient.There are also manpower to bring, who must be proficient in various things, for example, hunting, finding wild vegetables, sleeping in the open, etc., you need to find good hands!
If it doesn't work, he will first send people out to exercise in these areas, and then after three to five years, when they have rich experience, he will go out with Ruyi for a walk.

I was so engrossed in thinking that I almost forgot that I was still holding Shen Ruyi's hand. After the soft and tender hand twitched twice, the sixth prince suddenly realized that his face was a little red, but he was really reluctant to let go. .

Besides, I didn't feel it carefully just now, I just thought about traveling.Really, travel or something, can you compare with your beloved?I actually forgot the origin and chased the end!It was so stupid that he himself couldn't bear to watch it.

"Well, you sit down first, I'll get you some snacks." Shen Ruyi also just reacted, her face was flushed, she looked at the stone table, didn't she ask someone to get some snacks just now?Why is there no one at this moment?

Turning his head, okay, Xia Bing is looking around the corner.For a moment, Shen Ruyi couldn't tell whether she was more ashamed or more annoyed.After struggling to break away from the sixth prince's hand, Shen Ruyi trotted to Master Shen's study with her skirt in her hand.

In the morning, she made some snacks and asked someone to send some to Lord Shen, but Lord Shen didn't come to the study all day, so the snacks were always there.It's just that Shen Ruyi looked around on the table, but didn't even see a plate, Xia Bing followed in a hurry: "Girl, what's wrong?"

"Didn't I ask you to come back to serve dim sum? Where are the dim sum?" Shen Ruyi asked, and Xia Bing raised the plate in her hand a little higher: "Miss, forgive me, what, the servant just found the dim sum, and it's just now I wanted to send it over, but I didn’t expect the girl to come back and carry it by herself. Will this servant carry it for you?"

In fact, it was brought out a long time ago, but seeing that the sixth prince was very excited talking to his own girl, her own girl didn't even struggle. As a good servant girl who thinks about her master, should she come out or not?This hesitation lasted until the girl came back by herself.

"No need, I'll take it by myself." After giving Xia Bing a blank look, Shen Ruyi took the plate over by herself.The sixth prince remembered that before Shen Ruyi said that this was the dim sum she made by herself, before the plate was put away, she couldn't wait to pinch a piece of it, and nodded after taking a bite: "Ruyi, the dim sum you made is so delicious! delicious!"

The corners of Shen Ruyi's mouth twitched, and when she was about to speak, she heard footsteps, she turned her head quickly, and Master Shen was leading Huichun into the door.When Shen Ruyi saw Lord Shen, Lord Shen had already seen the Sixth Prince sitting there, squinted his eyes, and Lord Shen went straight into the small pavilion: "Your Highness the Sixth Prince is here to look for this Marquis?"

The sixth prince hurriedly nodded with a serious face: "Yes, I want to discuss with Lord Hou about repairing the official road. Before the father said that the road was built, it was because he was going to send people to the border to deliver food and grass at that time, so he appointed that person. A road needs to be repaired."

Lord Shen nodded: "Didn't that road be repaired a year ago?" Fortunately, that road was repaired a year ago, otherwise, the Fourth Prince might not be able to come back safely this time.

"I want to ask, can we build another road?" The sixth prince paused and said, this is what he just remembered, but the more he thinks about it, the more he thinks it is feasible.However, he himself has only been in court for a year, and it has been less than three months since he started interfering in political affairs. If he raises such a thing, he will definitely be beaten back.

But Shen Houye is different. The matters raised by Shen Houye should be regarded as the top priority.Even if the father refuses to agree, he will let people discuss the pros and cons in advance.Even if Master Shen didn't bring it up, and Lord Shen has a lot of contacts, he can still ask others to bring it up, anyway, they are more important than him.

"What's the reason?" Marquis Shen tapped on the table with his fingers, and seeing that the dim sum plates on the table were almost empty, he turned his head and glanced at Shen Ruyi, who hurriedly saluted: "Father, you and His Highness the Sixth Highness take your time." Discuss, I'll go and make some snacks for you personally."

Lord Shen waved his hand: "No need, it's getting dark, you can just go back and be with your mother."

Shen Ruyi responded and saluted the sixth prince before turning around and leaving.

Xia Bing murmured from behind: "Girl, His Highness the Sixth Highness is very kind to you. If you marry the Sixth Highness in the future, you must be very happy in the future. By the way, didn't you say you wanted to make clothes for the young master?" Is it? The third girl was sent over by someone..."

Shen Jiamei?
"When did you deliver it?" Shen Ruyi asked softly, and Xia Bing replied with her head down: "I just delivered it this morning. The girl was busy taking care of the young master, so the maidservant didn't say anything, and then I forgot about it. I just thought about it now." Rise up, girl, shall we return the gift?"

"No need." Shen Ruyi waved her hand, walked quickly to the main courtyard, talked with Mrs. Shen for a while, and teased her brother again.Lord Shen Hou didn't come back until dinner time, and he didn't mention the sixth prince. After dinner as before, Shen Ruyi left and went back to his yard.

Nanny Lu came out to welcome her: "There is movement in the second bedroom."

"Second Aunt has been going to pay respects to the old lady every day these few days, I think the Second Household will not be too content with being ordinary." Shen Ruyi smiled, what is the Second Household thinking about?What kind of promise did the old lady make for the title of the Marquis Mansion?That is naturally the title of the Marquis Mansion.

Although the old lady can't get involved in the affairs of the court, she can write a note to the empress dowager or queen, expressing her willingness to support which son will become the prince, and there is a [-]% chance that the court will favor the mother.

Mrs. Shen is dead, isn't it difficult to deal with a baby who is not yet full moon?

"Second Aunt is a genius, I'm afraid that the old lady gave the second room some reassurance." The second wife would not take risks foolishly, but if the old lady did something, the second room could be completely relieved. , the situation is different.

"Maybe the old lady has already written the notebook?" After thinking for a while, Shen Ruyi raised her eyebrows and said, Lu Nanny nodded with a serious expression: "It is very possible, then shall we find out this notebook?"

"That's natural. This kind of thing shouldn't have happened." Shen Ruyi smiled: "I think, if it wasn't for ruining my mother's reputation, my father might be furious and thus harm the old lady's youngest son." , I am afraid that the old lady has already written a note for the palace?"

Ever since the old lady couldn't leave, she has been scolding every day.The one who was scolded the most was Mrs. Shen, no matter whether Mrs. Shen went to pay her respects, or whether she was in front of her, she scolded her.

Nanny Lu hesitated for a moment: "Girl, do we have to be on guard? In case the matter of the second lady is revealed this time, the old lady wants to burn everything..."

"As long as that person is alive, as long as the third uncle is alive, as long as the third aunt is alive, the old lady will not choose to die together." Shen Ruyi twitched her lips: "What's more, at the old lady's age, she is more and more afraid of death Now, if everything is destroyed, how long can the old lady live?"

Mrs. Shen's greatest reliance was the filial piety archway in the past, but now it has become Lord Shen.Shen Ruyi is not in a hurry, after another three to five years, her mother's support will always become her.At that time, there is no need to worry anymore.

"You ask someone to search in the second bedroom to see if you can find anything. It doesn't have to be a book, it may be a letter or something, or some kind of token. If it's a token..."

Shen Ruyi paused, the token that could convince the second lady was not an ordinary thing.But what unusual things can the old lady have in her hand?Was it left by the old Hou Ye, or was it given by Shen Hou Ye back then?Or, who did the old lady get it from?
I read a lot of story books, and I think a little too much about it.For example, the old lady made friends with a certain concubine, and then got a token that the second lady could ask for help or something.

Shaking his head, he ruled out this possibility. No matter how powerful the concubine is, she can't just interfere in the inheritance of other people's titles... No, the concubine can't interfere. The concubine's son...

But who would be foolish enough to offend Lord Shen, and then support a useless person?Not right, everything should not be too absolute, Lord Shen is not without enemies.On the contrary, those who want Lord Shen to step down will be caught in a large number.

"Girl?" Nanny Lu didn't hear the second part of the sentence for a long time, so she couldn't help but call out to Shen Ruyi, who patted her forehead: "Forget it, let people look for it first, and see what is more suspicious. I got it, but Erfang didn’t have it before.”

Nanny Lu hesitated for a moment: "Is there any general scope? For example, jewelry?"

"Letters, notebooks, jade pendants, jewelry." After a pause, Shen Ruyi said, if it's a keepsake, it can't be a big guy, right?But what if the old Hou Ye stayed behind, it's really uncertain.

After thinking for a long time, Shen Ruyi waved her hand: "That's all. Look for it first. It doesn't matter if you can't find it. After the birthday party is over, the second aunt doesn't want to say anything. There will always be times for her to speak. As for the old Mrs……"

It can't be killed. Last time, her teeth and nails were pulled out. So this time, are her limbs to be abolished?Why is this man always so greedy?As far as she knew, the old marquis was such a dedicated person. He never let his aunt give birth to a concubine in his whole life, but the old lady was still not satisfied, and even hooked up with... eh, little boy?That person is not young, is he?Maybe it was because he was good-looking when he was young?
In this world that depends on faces... a good person is an advantage.

No, this can't be said to be a guideline. Lord Shen is so handsome, so his grandfather and his parents should be good too, right?The old lady didn't even like it, which means that the face is not that important.

Amitabha, it's a sin, a sin, to slander the old man, grandpa, you have a spirit in heaven, you should pretend that you didn't hear it.

"By the way, you said before that the second room has something to do?" Shen Ruyi hurriedly pulled back her lost thoughts, and Nanny Lu couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth. The girl is really weird today, so she said three words If you lost your mind once, could it be that you have something else on your mind?
"Well, the Second Madam sent the nanny next to her to go out." While thinking about it, Lu Nanny replied respectfully: "In the kitchen, although the Second Madam didn't intervene, some time ago, a stranger went to see Li Madam home."

Nanny Li is the new chef in the kitchen, not from the old lady's side, but not necessarily from Mrs. Shen's side. How long has Shen Ruyi been the housekeeper?Even if those people want to rely on Mrs. Shen, they can't be loyal to Mrs. Shen immediately. They have to wait for Mrs. Shen to show some achievements before they will be sincere.

In fact, even if Mrs. Shen had gained a firm foothold and completely held the backyard of the Hou Mansion in her hands, it was impossible for everyone in the Hou Mansion to be loyal to Mrs. Shen.

Where there are people, there are disputes.Even if it is to show filial piety to a master, the people below have several considerations.Not to mention, this backyard is not only Mrs. Shen's master, the things in the backyard are either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind.

At this moment, it seemed that the old lady was overwhelmed, and Mrs. Shen had the upper hand.However, how many years the old lady has been running in the Hou Mansion, who can guarantee that the old lady will not have time to stand up?

And Mrs. Shen looks proud, but her foundation is not stable. Now Lord Shen has a lot of trust in her, but who can guarantee a man's mind?No matter how deep the love is, it can't compare to the natural love of blood. Lord Shen Hou will be moved by the old lady one day.

"Whose family can we find out?" Shen Ruyi asked with a chuckle, and Nanny Lu shook her head: "We don't have that many people outside..."
