A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 675: Not Recognizing Relatives

Shen An went to the front.

The main hall was wide open, and Zhuang Laoshi and Aunt Chen were accompanying the guests inside.

Usually when guests come, the most male guests are accompanied by Zhuang Laoshi, and the most female guests are accompanied by Aunt Chen, but at this moment they are both here.

"...It's just in the past few years...Hey! That unruly slave back then...that's all. It's useless for me to tell you this. I'll wait until Brother An comes."

The speaker was a woman.

The woman was wearing light-colored clothes, looking up and smiling, looking graceful and graceful.

Zhuang Laoshi stood on the side and smiled awkwardly: "Mr. Lang just came home and was having dinner..."

How could you come to see me during meal time? Do you know how to be polite?

The woman smiled slightly, with a few fine lines at the corners of her eyes, "You also have lunch at noon?"

The rule of the Song Dynasty is not to eat at noon, but to finish the meal in the morning and evening.

Zhuang Laoshi smiled and said: "Yes! Lang Jun said that it is good to follow the rules and make yourself comfortable. As for the rules that shackle others, you can abide by them or not."

A trace of gloom appeared on the woman's well-maintained face. Just as Shen An came in, she stared at it, then slowly stood up and said, "You are Brother An, right? Sure enough, you look exactly like your father..."

Shen An glanced at her, cupped his hands and said, "I haven't asked for advice yet..."

There was a post, but Shen An still asked knowingly.

The woman said in surprise: "Your cousin Shen Mi... I am your aunt, my surname is Liang."

Shen An said "oh" and sat on the edge, his eyes were indifferent and his tone was also indifferent: "When my brother and sister first arrived in Bianliang, they had no relatives... May I ask who you are?"

These words were very cold, and combined with Shen An's even colder face, there was an atmosphere of keeping strangers away.

Liang was stunned, and then laughed heartily: "Hahahaha!"

Shen An inexplicably thought of Liang Hongyu, that woman who was so arrogant that she must have a hearty laugh.

Shen An didn't answer, Liang's laughter couldn't be continued, and it ended in an anticlimax.

There was still no shame in her eyes, "Brother An, when you came, the servants in the family didn't know you. Afterwards, Diao Nu concealed the matter until it happened last month. Your uncle returned from Yizhou When Jing heard about this, he was so furious that he almost sent the unruly slave to Kaifeng Mansion..."

This string of rhetoric was very smooth and logical, explaining in a logical and orderly manner how Shen An's brother and sister went to Beijing to find relatives and were rejected. They also dealt with the person involved, which was considered as venting their anger.

She was smiling, and Shen An was smiling too, and then asked, "Why didn't you send it?"

Liang's smile froze on her face.

This is just rhetoric, rhetoric to get both sides to step down. But you actually ask, is this shameless?

Most people would be vague about this kind of thing, but Shen An was different and directly asked why he didn't send it.

Of course you can’t give it away!

Because that is the master's intention. Once it is really sent, the servant will expose the matter. Shen Mi has been serving as an official in Yizhou, which can be explained by his ignorance, but the Liang family in Bianliang at that time was in embarrassment.

Liang's expression became stiff, then relaxed, and said, "There is some misunderstanding here, but your uncle has been thinking about you brothers and sisters..."

"We brothers and sisters are very good!"

Liang said with a normal expression: "Really?"

Shen An stood up and walked to the gate and said, "It's not about money or power, what else is wrong?"

He stood inside the door, his burly body gradually blocking most of the light, and he looked somewhat steady.

This is the head of the family!

He is already qualified to call himself the Shen family of Xiongzhou, and he has worked hard for all this.

At this moment, regret was like poison, corroding Liang's heart.

If she had accepted the Shen An brothers and sisters, now her family could borrow everything from the Shen family...

So much money, so many connections... the secret fragrance of the dew, the wealth that can rival a country; Bao Zheng's father-like concern for Shen An; and the current official family, who also knew Shen An when they were in the dormitory...

The most terrifying thing is the future prince Zhao Xu. That man and Shen An have a brotherly relationship.

How radiant is the Shen family!

These were originally the help of her family, but now the two families have become passers-by. What a shame!

Liang returned home feeling a little dejected. Shen Mi, who had just returned from Yizhou and was waiting for the reassignment of official positions, was drinking tea.

He was good at making tea, and the white foam formed mysterious patterns on the surface of the tea, which was pleasing to the eye.

"Official..."

"Um!"

Shen Mi raised his head and said coldly: "Anbei ignored you?"

His face is relatively broad, his complexion is slightly dark, and his eyes look at Mr. Liang indifferently, showing dignity.

"yes."

Mrs. Liang lost her previous grace, sat down and said with a wry smile: "At the beginning, our family had enough food for two people, but Shen Biancai was about to disappear. The outside world said everything, and some even said that he had defected to the Liao people. I am thinking that you are here As an official in Yizhou, I can't be implicated, so..."

"That's why you made your own decisions, and that's why you responded with indifference?"

Shen Mi picked up the teacup and took a sip, then narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother An and his sister were lonely and helpless at the time. I was far away in Yizhou at the time and didn't know about these changes. Otherwise, how could I sit back and watch them trek from Xiongzhou to Bianliang? Then? Do you know how dangerous it is along the way?"

Mr. Liang lowered his head.

Shen Mi said coldly: "The folk customs along the way were not good, and child abduction and trafficking were frequently prohibited. How old was Brother An at that time? He had to bring an ignorant sister with him. It was a dangerous experience... But when he was full of hope, When you came to Bianliang, you turned away the brothers and sisters..."

Mrs. Liang raised her head: "Official, concubine..."

"shut up!"

Shen Mi's face was livid, and he slapped the tea cup on the ground. He stood up suddenly and said, "Yizhou is a remote place. How can my career be worse? You made your own decision and almost broke Shen Bian's branch. Incense, if it weren’t for the years of friendship between husband and wife, I would..."

He stood there with cold eyes.

Mrs. Liang slowly knelt down, her eyes unclear whether it was regret or something else.

Shen Mi strode out, and a servant girl came in and helped Liang up, saying, "Madam, please don't be angry. That Shen An...is a martial artist, right? Many scholars say he is a martial artist, and martial arts people have no future!"

Liang sighed: "But the officials say he is a famous general."

The servant girl smiled: "Madam, there are famous generals. Wasn't Di Qing also a famous general back then? Didn't the officials back then rely heavily on him? But what happened later?"

Liang sat down slowly, picked up the tea cup, looked at the birds painted on it, and murmured: "I was afraid of being implicated back then. It is not easy for an official to be an official in Yizhou. In addition, after Da Lang You still have to study. If you can become an official, you can't bear the name of a relative of Shen Bian, right? So... I have often heard news about Shen An in the past few years. I can't even dream about it, but I... regret it. "

After hearing this, the servant woman advised: "Then Shen An is a junior. Go and tell him in person. Does he still dare to take Qiao?"

Liang smiled bitterly and said: "When he said he didn't know his brother and sister, the servant reported back that Shen An immediately covered Guoguo's ears and blocked her in front of her. It was obvious that he was a brother who loved his sister. Now that he is rich and proud, , how could you forgive me so easily..."

When the servant girl heard this, she said: "Madam, I heard that the Liao people congratulated the Song Dynasty for its victory over Xixia! They also said that Bao Zheng and Shen An are both famous generals. Even the Liao people admire him, so you can see that they are very proud."

Liang raised his head with a blank look in his eyes: "Liao people... Liao people are very powerful. What the Song Dynasty is most afraid of is the Liao people..."

The grassland on Bashang is green, and the river is like a jade belt, flowing in an arc and winding through the grassland. A group of sheep gnawed on grass by the water, bleating from time to time.

Just opposite, densely packed tents covered the grassland, and groups of cavalry were slowly walking around.

Farther away, a palace stood, shining in the sun.

"So... Li Liangzuo was defeated?"

Yelu Hongji, who was holding a book in his hand, was very gentle and elegant, but several officials and generals standing below did not dare to show their anger.

"yes."

"How did you lose?"

"Li Liangzuo commanded an army of 40,000 people. On the Song side, Bao Zheng led the army and was assisted by Shen An. He led more than 60,000 troops but only had 10,000 cavalry. The two sides fought a decisive battle outside Yuanzhou City. The Song army's crossbows were fierce, but Li Liangzuo He insisted on charging into the formation, and at the critical moment, the gates of Yuanzhou City were wide open, and the Song people actually ambushed inside. Thousands of cavalry attacked and defeated Li Liangzuo in one fell swoop."

A general said greedily: "Your Majesty, Xixia is weak. Should we..."

Yelu Hongji said calmly: "Li Liangzuo was trying to kill people with a borrowed knife. When he saw that the situation was wrong, he ran away. Anyone who thinks Xixia is weak will be unlucky."

"Can Bao Zheng know the soldiers?"

This is an issue he is more concerned about.

"I don't know, but it is said that Shen An is at the front in this battle."

"Then Bao Zheng is the boss!"

Yelu Hongji smiled and said: "The southerners have actually produced a famous general. Yes, if there is a chance in the future, I hope to kill him myself."

"Your Majesty, the people of Song Dynasty dare not peep north. Unless the Liao cavalry goes south, your wish may not be realized."

"Yes! The Song people only dare to quarrel with the Xixia people, how can they dare to fight with the Liao people!"

Everyone sighed, feeling how lonely it was to be invincible!

At this time, a chamberlain came in and looked around.

"I'll take my leave."

After the others left, Yelu Hongji asked, "What are the father and son doing?"

The chamberlain said: "Your Majesty, we are having a secret discussion, and there are a few traitors here."

Yelu Hongji said calmly: "From the emperor's younger brother to the emperor's uncle, he was the marshal of the world's troops... His son Nerugu is now the Privy Councilor of the South Academy. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net Isn't that enough? "

He just raised his eyes, and the emotionless look in his eyes made the chamberlain tremble. Then he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, traitors are always greedy."

"Yes, greed, this is his sin."

Yelu Hongji said calmly: "In this case... I will relax the defense here later."

The chamberlain nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty, don't worry. If it is loose, it will only become tighter."

Yelu Hongji picked up the book again and said, "Keep an eye on Jun'er. If something happens, you will be punished and your family will be harmed."

"yes."

Cold sweat broke out on the chamberlain's forehead. He knew that Yelu Jun was currently the emperor's heartthrob and the future prince. If something happens to Yelujun, no one can run away.

The third update is here, good night!
