whirling jade

The Wen family in Taiyuan has a female named Huanzhi'er, who is graceful and elegant, dignified in appearance, soft in nature, knowledgeable in books and etiquette, and well behaved.The Wen family and the Shen family have been friends for generations, and their ancestors made a marriage contract for the descendants.

It's strange to say that since the marriage contract was established, all of Wen's and Shen's sons are male, and the marriage has been delayed again and again.Up to the Shen Qing generation, when Shen Qing's father passed away, Shen Qing was only eight years old.Shen Qing was 25 years old, Wen Chang's daughter-in-law gave birth to a daughter named Zhi'er.

Originally thought that Shen Qing was a bit older, and Shen Qing's father had passed away long ago, so it's worth not mentioning the matter of getting married, but he didn't want the Wen family to see that the Shen family is now in the court like a fish in water, it is even more sticky.The Patriarch of the Wen family was supposed to be the Taiwei, he said to Shen Qing, "How dare the younger generation disobey the marriage contract made by the ancestors." Shen Qing knew it in his heart, thinking that Wen Zhi'er was not yet a year old, so he let the Wen family mess around.

The Wen family intended Wen Zhier and Shen Qing to develop a relationship, so they often sent Wen Zhier to the Shen family to be with Shen Qing and Mrs. Shen. Shen Qing felt a little helpless about this matter. Who is Shen Qing in the Wen family?Shen Qingke is 25 years older than Wen Zhier.Facing a child, how could Shen Qing have feelings for a man and a woman?

Then as Wen Zhi'er grew up gradually, Shen Qing also got to know Wen Zhi'er well.But in Shen Qing's heart, he always regarded Wen Zhi'er as his younger sister, and Wen Zhi'er also treated Shen Qing as his own brother.Others said that the Wen family had a daughter who was well educated, quiet and sweet.Shen Qing disagreed with this statement.

There is a jujube tree in the backyard of the Shen family. When Wen Zhier was five years old, the jujube tree just matured. Wen Zhier wanted to eat sweet dates, but he was too small, and he could only reach half of the trunk with his hand.Shen Qing leaned against the jujube tree and asked her with a smile: "Want to eat jujube?"

Wen Zhi'er nodded, Shen Qing said again: "Call me brother, I'll pick it for you." Wen Zhi'er was stunned for a moment, then rolled his legs and started to climb to the top of the jujube tree.Shen Qing was startled, and quickly hugged Wen Zhier down, Wen Zhier was immediately displeased when Shen Qing hugged him down, Shen Qing thought that Wen Zhier was going to cry in the next second, but Wen Zhier blew his beard and stared, "Shen Hengyu! You are courting death!"

Shen Qing froze in place at the moment, what made Shen Qing even more horrified was the sound of footsteps coming from the front door, followed by the voices of Madam Shen and Wen Zhier's father Wen Taiwei.The sound of footsteps and voices were getting closer and closer, and before Shen Qing had time to react, Wen Zhi'er had already stood still, and when he saw the black man coming, he took his time and saluted dignifiedly, "Zhi'er has seen his wife, he has seen his father. "

Wen Zhi'er's soft voice won Mrs. Shen's favor even more.Shen Qing was completely at a loss for what to do now, this Wen Zhi'er seemed to be very complicated.

Wen Zhi'er was well-versed and courteous, but in front of Shen Qing, she would yell at Shen Hengyu, eat peaches regardless of her image, and speak loudly while eating.People who have met Wen Zhi'er all say that Wen's daughters are gentle and gentle, and they are gentle and exemplary. Only Shen Qing knows that Wen Zhi'er is just a playful child.

Shen Qing regards Wen Zhi'er as a sister and cares for her, and Wen Zhi'er is also dependent on Shen Qing like a relative.The two are siblings and confidants.

In the year of Wen Zhi'er and Ji, love first opened, seeing Wang Sui, the young son of the Wang family, is like day and night, I only hope he is safe.Shen Qing was forced to get close to Wang Sui frequently, others saw that Prime Minister Shen intended to support the young prince of the Wang family in Taiyuan, even Lou Zhi didn't know what Shen Qing wanted.In the year of Wen Zhier's birthday, Shen Qing posted a post asking Wang Sui to come to the prime minister's mansion for a drink, it's also good if he doesn't drink, as soon as he drinks, Wang Sui's temperament is revealed.

Shen Qing felt at a glance that Wang Sui was a cruel and cruel person, but Wang Sui always treated people with courtesy, so Wen Zhier didn't know about it.A maid from the prime minister's mansion wet Wang Sui's clothes while pouring wine for Wang Sui. Wang Sui smiled and waved his hand, "Forgive your innocence." The maid retreated tremblingly.Wang Sui beat the maid to death in the backyard on the pretext of going to the toilet.

Shen Qing was angry, but he had no choice but to touch Wen Zhier secretly many times, but Wen Zhier insisted on going his own way, only thinking that Wang Sui was gentle, refined, courteous and knowledgeable.Shen Qing had no choice but to send someone to secretly protect Wen Zhier.

Wen Zhi'er thinks she has affection wholeheartedly, and Wang Sui also has affection.For three days and three nights, she personally showed off the purse with the picture of lovebirds, a pair of jade hands, full of scars.On Wang Sui's birthday, she traveled southward for more than half a month, and finally got a high-quality mutton jade, which she carved for Wang Sui and presented it with branches.When the snow fell, she showed the sachet with her own hands and put some red beans in it, hoping that Wang Sui could understand her intentions.When the flowers bloomed, she wove the concentric knot with her own hands, and the workmanship was exquisite, and she gave it to Wang Sui, who would be delighted to see it.

Unexpectedly, Wang Sui threw the purse into the slop bucket of the back kitchen, Wang Sui smashed the jade engraved with Lian Lizhi himself, Wang Sui threw the sachet to the watchdog at the back door of the Wang Mansion, and Wang Sui hung the concentric knot on the door of the latrine. superior.

"Prince Wang, why didn't you respond to Zhi'er's gift? When will the Wangfu come to Wenfu to propose a marriage? If Wang Gongzi feels that Zhi'er is impatient, Zhi'er can wait for another two years. But Zhi'er is already old, if it takes too long , Zhi'er may not be able to wait any longer."

"Propose marriage? When did I say I would marry you?"

"Didn't Prince Wang accept Zhi'er's gift?"

"Gift? Oh, I threw it away a long time ago, so it was you who gave it to me. The Wen family is a big family, why is the daughter born so slutty?"

In the end, it was a joy in vain.

If you have no intention, I will rest.

Wen Zhi'er had seen it all since she was a child, and even though Shen Qing was calm, she was still very angry.Wen Zhi'er curled up in a corner, her shoulders trembling, and she gritted her teeth to prevent herself from crying.Wen Zhi'er said that children of aristocratic families should not lose their manners in front of others.Shen Qing was annoyed, why didn't he dissuade Wen Zhi'er earlier.He picked up his saber and strode towards the door, "Housekeeper! Prepare the horse!" So what if he slaughtered that boy from the Wang family today?

Just as Shen Qing was about to straddle the horse, news came from his confidantes, Shen Qing is such a proud person, he is not surprised, not reserved.But at the moment it was in disarray.

"There are rumors in the market that the prime minister and today's son are very good at marrying Longyang. From the south to the north, everyone knows that the habit of breaking sleeves is not worthy of being an emperor. Many people in the market are already planning to rebel."

"Go back."

Shen Qing staggered back to Wen Zhi'er, "Zhi'er, I'm sorry. I don't have the ability to seek justice for you now."

Wen Zhi'er's eyes were red: "Shen Hengyu, do you have something on your mind?"

"nothing."

"Don't lie to me, you always look dead when you have something on your mind. Hey, what's wrong with you?" Wen Zhi'er stretched out his hand and poked Shen Qing's arm.

Shen Qing laughed at himself when he heard the words: "Didn't you already guess it?"

"So it's about you and the emperor?"

Shen Qing didn't move, for a moment, Shen Qing said in a deep voice: "Zhi'er, how about I marry you?"

Lou Zhi wakes up feeling sore all over, thinking of being drunk last night, and groping to the side, it is already cold, Yiheng Hall is quiet, as if Shen Qing has never been here, as if last night was just a dream.Only the red marks on his body and the smell of alcohol in the hall remind Lou Zhi that last night was not a dream.

Lou Zhi didn't call the palace servants, but dressed himself neatly, opened the door, and unexpectedly saw a white dress in front of the door.The white man heard the movement behind him, turned his head and smiled and said, "Are you awake?"

Lou Zhi thought of last night, the shyness from inside to outside burst out on his face.You don't need to look to know that Lou Zhi's face must be flushed at the moment, Shen Qing laughed softly, "Why? Isn't it time for you to be unrestrained last night?"

Lou Zhi became angry from embarrassment: "Shen Hengyu, you are bold!"

Hearing this, Shen Qing dragged Lou Zhi back into the hall, and closed the two finely crafted doors, Lou Zhi was pressed against the door by Shen Qing, Shen Qing's warm breath hit his face, Lou Zhi unconsciously fainted. She closed her eyes, did not wait for the imaginary kiss, but heard Shen Qing's deep voice: "Qioni, what are you doing with your eyes closed?"

Lou Zhi opened his eyes, just as he was about to explode, Shen Qing's two thin lips pressed down lightly, and stars fell on Lou Zhi's lips, face, nose, eyebrows, and eyes.Lou Zhi slowly pushed Shen Qing away, and said coyly, "I...I should go up."

"Yes, I will leave." Shen Qing smiled and withdrew.

Lou Zhi solemnly sat on the dragon chair, all civil and military officials bowed down together, Shen Qing looked indifferent, standing below, somewhat out of place with the prostrate officials.

"Everyone loves you, what's the matter?"

"I report to my emperor that the disaster situation in Jinling has eased. I am gratified and congratulated. Congratulations, Your Majesty."

The one who spoke was Taiyuan Wen, Wen Zhier's father, Wen Duo and Taiwei Wen.

Lou Zhi was in a trance, recalling that in the 25th year of Dayu, Shen Qing rashly entered the palace, begging to see Lou Zhi.When did Shen Qing come to see Lou Zhi on his own initiative, and when was it not Lou Zhi who summoned him.When Shen Qing stood in front of Lou Zhi, what he said was to beg him to make an order, Shen Qing begged to marry Wen Zhi'er, Wen's daughter.

"Are you serious?" Lou Zhi's hands trembled a little.

"Naturally, I beg the emperor to issue an order."

"Go back."

"emperor..."

"Get out!"

Afterwards, Shen Qing went to the palace to ask to see Lou Zhi twice, but was rejected by Lou Zhi.Unexpectedly, Shen Qing gradually stopped mentioning this matter.But what Lou Zhi didn't know was that Shen Qing fought bloody battles with the street gangsters who wanted to rebel, and finally captured more than 8000 people.

What Lou Zhi didn't know was that Shen Qing's back was pierced by a streetman with a long knife, and now there is a bowl-sized scar on his back.

The good times don't last long, people's words are terrible, rumors spread again, Shen Qing can kill 8000 people, but he can't stop the mouths of the people in the world, helpless, Shen Qing enters the palace again.

"Please let the emperor let his ministers go." Shen Qing hugged his clothes and fell to the ground.

Lou Zhi was slightly startled, "You actually worshiped me for Wen?" Lou Zhi felt his heart sink.

"Your Majesty, please let the minister go." Shen Qing just repeated and left.

Lou Zhi's hands trembled slightly, and he wanted to open his mouth to say something, but he couldn't find his own voice.After a while, Lou Zhi laughed softly, "Prime Minister insists on leaving?"

"I ask the emperor for permission."

"Okay! I'm sure!" Lou Zhi said loudly.

Shen Qing was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect that Lou Zhi would really let him go.

"Shen Qing listens to the order," Lou Yi lowered his head and stopped looking at Shen Qing, "Prime Minister Shen has worked hard for me all his life, so I will allow you to leave."

"Thank you my emperor."

"Come here, Prime Minister Shen intends to rebel. After three days, he will be beheaded and his head will be hung on the city wall to warn the world."

After Lou Zhi finished speaking, he got up and walked to Shen Qing's side, looking down at him.Then he said into Shen Qing's ear in an inaudible voice, "Do you know that the lover's head should be hung high on the city wall, it's better than him wandering with others."

"The emperor wants to execute Shen Qing?"

"Exactly, what does Prime Minister Shen like?"

"The emperor wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die." Shen Qing stood up slowly, looked straight into Lou Zhi's eyes, "Let the emperor do what he wants."
