Sheng Weiqiao was shocked when hearing the words. She stopped crying and said in amazement, "Don't act recklessly!"
"Then you must stop crying!" Sheng Shuihe said, "Otherwise, I will kill Xu Caikui. When I accompanied you to Jihong Pavilion to pack, I paid special attention to the position of Jihong Pavilion. I won’t go to the wrong place!"
"Why did you enter her boudoir at night? How rude you are!" Although Sheng Weiqiao knew he was born in a group of pirates, she had never seen his slaughtering except for his killing Young Master Han.
However, Sheng Weiqiao hated Young Master Han and even cut off his head. Of course, she would not feel that Sheng Shuihe was a terrifying person after shooting Young Master Han dead. On the contrary, she felt satisfied with that.
Sheng Shuihe always acted as the elegant Eldest Childe of Sheng Family instead of the "Crow Slaughterer" who frightened others at sea. Though Sheng Shuihe had done a lot of
After sending Sheng Weiqiao back to the wing-room to rest, Sheng Shuihe returned to the principal room himself. Gongsun Xi, who had disappeared just now, came in and made the bed for him.Sheng Shuihe stood in front of the red sandalwood screen carved with birds and painted with mountain, water, building, and pavilion, undressing his robe. He put his coat on the red sandalwood magpie-head shape diamond pattern hanger next to him, and commanded, "As for the incident in Bishui County, Empress Dowager made a seven-day appointment with my sweetie. I have thought about it. It will be great if I take this opportunity to let the Empress Dowager and the eldest branch of Meng Family owe my sweetie a favor. Go to arrange this matter now!"Gongsun Xi's hand which was putting the jade pillow paused and a suspicious expression appeared on his face. Then he whispered, "Chief, how could Empress Dowager ask Third Miss to deal with this issue?! Does she doubt..."
"F*ck the tie of blood! No one in Xu Family is ruthless and treasonous like her!" Xu Zijing pondered as he showed Sheng Shuihe into the Marquis Mansion. He said indignantly, "We did you wrong. She's already engaged. I was discussing with your aunt about marrying her into her fiancé's family as soon as possible and letting them lecture her. So she wouldn't keep jeopardizing the friendship between us two families by her indiscretion and ignorance!""Uncle, that's definitely too much!" Sheng Shuihe instantly changed face. He stopped and said, "Since time immemorial, girls have been the side who receive courtship in a marriage. How could a girl's family take the lead and ask her fiancé to marry her? If you really do that, what would her husband's family think of her? It would for sure ruin her marriage life! I will never accept that. If you don’t withdraw that proposition, you would make us seem disloyal!"Xu Zijing's mouth twitched. This nephew was never at a
Xu Zijing waited for a while before saying vengefully, "Your personality is nothing like that of Sheng Family! Brother Xinzhang was slick in establishing social relations, it was not hard to bond with him, not to mention the broad-minded Master Sheng!"You are only saying this because you haven't seen my father in person in the past few decades." Listening to his words, Sheng Shuihe smiled the whole time and added, "I will guarantee that if my father were to learn that his beloved daughter was kicked out of Xu Family, he would sever all social ties with Xu family and would go even further than me. Uncle, although Old Marquis Xu and Old Madam Xia wrote many letters to you ever since we came to Chang'an, it seems like that you are still unaware of what it meant for Weiqiao being the treasure of the entire Sheng Family!"He sneered in his heart. Sheng Lanci was capable of giving the entire family business to someone who was not related to this family by blood
"Of course, he hinted us to show our sincerity!" Xu Zijing patted the table and said confidently, "From yesterday, no matter how we pleaded for him, he didn't change his attitude! If he really plans to break with us, he would not have spent half a day staying here! It can be judged that he doesn’t want to break with us. Indeed, he has some requirements which cannot be indicated clearly!"Madam Nan was stunned, saying, "But we have said all we can do for him! We are so sincere. Doesn’t he believe us? If he doesn’t trust us, why would he have given us a hint?""Maybe his requirement is so embarrassing." Xu Baomo was worried. He thought about the question from his point of view, saying, "Does he like Caikui and want to marry her?"His sister was really precipitant this time, but she was pretty beautiful!As handsome and outstanding young men like them, when they went to the family of their elders' friends, they would plan for nothing
Actually, the reason why Old Marquis Xu and Old Madam Xia concealed Sheng Shuihe's experience from Xu Zijing and his wife in the family letter was that they were afraid that this issue would be spread out. If it was leaked out, it would bring trouble to Sheng Shuihe's future and also hurt the friendship between the two families.But the reason why they even didn’t tell Xu Zijing and his wife that Xu Baomo had betrayed Sheng Weiqiao the year before was that Xu Baomo was brought up by them after all, and he was their only grandson. Therefore, they could beat him or scold him, but they cared about this grandson the most.Otherwise, they would not try to match their prospective granddaughter-in-law candidate Sheng Weiqiao to Xu Baomo.Although Xu Baomo was personally surprised by the match at first, then he got frightened. Finally, he wanted to avoid it, but from the point of view of his grandparents, their grandson was definitely young and had a p
Certainly, Sheng Weiqiao was familiar with Ruru, because Senior Master Sheng, who was her grandfather, left his newly-married wife and joined the army to defend his country and fight against them. They were the most dangerous enemies for Country Mu at the border!When Country Mu was newly founded, Emperor Gaozu and Taizong, the first two emperors, had tried to wipe them out, while the remnants of defeated troops escaped into the desert though chased by the cavalry for thousands of miles!After decades of recuperation, the power had been transferred to the grandson of Emperor Tai Zong, Zhao Zong, who was the grandfather of the current Emperor.Zhao Zong wished to carry on the mission of his ancestors for the credits on him in history. However, Ruru's days were not numbered yet while the natural disasters in the middle of Zhao Zong's ruling period happened many times!At first, one large-scale earthquake that hasn’t happened in a cen
Sheng Weiqiao inwardly recognized Sheng Shuihe’s sharp ears as she heard Jinli's footsteps. She was surprised at the news Jinli brought. She jumped off the bed and went to open the door for her, "A guest during the Spring Festival? Is he one of Xu Family's members?"Jinli shook her head, "No. He seems to be an old acquaintance of our master."Sheng Siblings put on a serious face. Sheng Weiqiao shoved Sheng Shuihe, "Go dress up and receive our guest! If we keep him waiting, he could think we are meant to slight him!"Because Sheng Shuihe was the only one asked to go, Sheng Weiqiao could simply quit for the time being. She exited from the door and let Jinli help Sheng Shuihe to change. It was considerate of Sheng Shuihe to have prepared two suits of formal clothes in both his bedroom and his study for unscheduled visits like this.Otherwise he would have to pass through the main reception hall, where the guest was already seated, in
Honestly, Sheng Weiqiao feared to communicate with the nobles in Chang'an, because her visit to the Empress Dowager had put an end to her happy life here. Though, according to Sheng Shuihe's analysis, Her Grace wasn't really mad at her.However, Sheng Shuihe wouldn't have come to Chang'an if he didn't pursue a successful career. As his sister, she couldn't lock herself at home without contacting people before her brother married a woman who would then help to handle the domestic affairs. Even if she had planned to return to Nanfeng County as soon as the result of the examination came out, she shouldn't leave before everything was settled for Sheng Shuihe.Thus, she instantly nodded, "Yes, we'll go to the study after lunch."Sheng Weiwu was still asleep, under the effect of her drug. And Gongsun Yingjiang was too lazy to get up. Sheng Siblings were the only two sitting by the lunch table. They roughly finished eating, rinsed their mouths, wiped
