After all, everyone knew that Sheng Lanci doted on his daughter, so Sheng Weiqiao may be the one who had the wealthiest dowries in Nanfeng County in recent years. Although the eldest branch of Sheng Family had a son, Sheng Shuihe had no right to encroach on Madam Feng’s dowries!
As the youngest daughter of Feng Family, Madam Feng was also doted on by her family when she was a little girl. When she married Sheng Lanci, her dowries were extremely rich. Thanks to her husband, who was good at management, after years of running, the value of these dowries couldn’t be imagined now!
Sheng Weiqiao was the only daughter of Madam Feng, so she could monopolize the property left by her mother!
Rumors had already spread over Nanfeng County. People said that marrying a rich girl could make a man live in clover for several decades, but marrying Second Miss Sheng could make him live in clover for generations. As long as he didn’t have a child who was an infamo
Although Sheng Weiqiao thought that she should not reveal Sheng Shuihe’s history without Sheng Lanci’s permission, she had already made a slip of the tongue. It was impossible to continue to keep it secret because she knew Madam Feng was good at fishing for information.Especially in her eye, Madam Feng was as dependable as her own parents. So, after Madam Feng cleared the room, she told Madam Feng the whole story hesitantly at last. Then she said nervously, “Auntie, even my grandmother doesn’t know. Please do not tell others! Otherwise, dad said something serious would happen!”“If it’s true, then it must not be spread!” Madam Feng meditated for a moment, and looked up at her, “But how do you know what your father said is true?”Sheng Weiqiao was stunned and asked, “Why would dad lie to me?”“Do you remember that you were so repulsed by your brother when you brought him to Xuanyu Family for the first time?” Madam Feng was disappoi
Madam Feng felt speechless about her niece’s dullness, “Have you forgot the story your father once told you? Though it was made up to wheedle you, it did reflect the fact that your brother is gifted with schoolwork!”She sneered, “Though your father hasn’t intended to go back to Imperial Academy since he quitted, everyone knows that he hasn’t necessarily lost his interest in the imperial court. He is just worried about your grandfather! What’s worse, you’re a girl who is not allowed to participate in the imperial examination. Now he has brought back a talented son. Don’t you think that he’ll make Sheng Shuihe study diligently to offset his regret?”Sheng Weiqiao muttered, “Before when we were in Orange Osmanthus Courtyard to felicitate Eldest Cousin Feng, brother… brother did say that for the imperial examination next year, he would be there to watch!”“Right?” Madam Feng raised her brows, “You’ve seen today how much the girls admired you and y
When Sheng Weiqiao arrived at Xiezhu Pavilion, Sheng Shuihe just finished bathing.Perhaps for that reason, his pale face had a reddish tinge, which brought out more of his vigor.“We just came back. Why do you come to me again?” Seeing Sheng Weiqiao enter with a gloomy face, Sheng Shuihe didn’t take it seriously at first. He laughed and teased as fastening the belt of his raven loose-sleeved coat, “Did you fell for some cousin while we were blocked by those people just now so you come here for the inquiry about him?”Despite his smiling face, Sheng Weiqiao couldn’t bring herself to make a joke, and she ordered all the servants around, “You can quit now!”Though Sheng Shuihe was the inheritor of the first branch, he came back not long ago and hadn’t built a solid position here. While Sheng Weiqiao had been pampered by everyone in Sheng Family since she was born. So, as Sheng Weiqiao commanded, all the people who served under Sheng
Madam Bai, Second Madam of Sheng family, held little place in the entire Sheng Family. It was safe to say that she was the least popular sister-in-law and least valued by her mother-in-law and father-in-law. However, she was the legitimate daughter-in-law of Sheng Family. Considering what her birth daughter Sheng Weirao had undergone recently, everyone in Sheng Family took a forbearing attitude towards her.She was seen in the morning and seemed to be in high spirits. Her sudden disappearance at nightfall caused a huge commotion in Sheng Family.Nevertheless, it was not up to Sheng Weiqiao, a mere grandchild, to suggest how to deal with the emergency, even though she was treated as the treasure of Sheng Family.Xiquan said the reason why she came in a hurry and asked Sheng Weiqiao to go the second branch was that “Madam is worried that Third Miss couldn’t bear this. That’s why she wants you to take care of Third Miss!”Xiquan knew
When Yamen heard about the case from Sheng Family, they could hardly believe it!Usually, when it came to domestic affairs like this, even if people got killed, only the wife’s family would report the case to Yamen after discovering something went wrong. They had never heard about a case that was reported by the husband’s family before informing the wife’s family of it!Old Fang told them explicitly that Senior Master Sheng was determined to place righteousness above family loyalty, but people in the Yamen had a meeting after Old Fang left. They were all suspicious of Sheng Lanci, “No one is capable of hurting his own child! No matter how upright and principled Senior Master Sheng is, how is it possible that he leaves no chance for his own son to live? Maybe Eldest Master Sheng was fed up with his brother’s love affairs and his malpractices. So, he decided to take this opportunity to encourage Senior Master Sheng to get rid of Sheng Lansi in case he continu
The most famous doctor in Nanfeng County is Hang Hengfang. He was born in a family of scholars who were not successful in imperial examinations. He had failed the exams many times and spent all the money. Fortunately, though he performed not well in his study, he was very talented in medical treatment.After becoming a doctor, he was famous soon. He not only redeemed most of the property pawned before but had the courteous treatment in the county. Even the County Chief courteously treated him.However, the most commendable thing of Hang Hengfang was not his medical skills, but his personality. He attached importance to the harmony. With more than 20 years’ experience of curing illnesses, he never said anything wrong.Entering Huafei Mansion, he felt the pulse of Sheng Weirao and frowned, feeling nervous!Before Sheng Weiqiao and others asked, he sighed, “This lady was heartbroken and fell in a faint!”Sheng Weiqiao alm
Seeing her come in, people in the hall stood up to welcome her.Sheng Lanzi was particularly attentive, and he poured a cup of tea for Madam Feng, asking with extreme caution, “Did they leave? Why did they come here?”He was awkward when asking this question. After all, the reason why Senior Master Sheng didn’t call him in to talk was that he expected that people in Yamen would come, so there must be a man handling this. However, he threw the tough issue to his sister-in-law. There was no doubt that no matter what Madam Feng did, she would offend her in-laws.Fortunately, although Madam Feng looked serious, she said calmly without complaints, “It’s a little troublesome. When my husband comes out, we discuss it!”Sheng Lanzi was shocked and said, “Troublesome?”Although, in his view, it was troublesome to tell Yamen what to do. Judging by Madam Feng’s tone, she didn’t worry about offending her father-in-law or mother-in
“Second Aunt was not killed by Second Uncle?” Sheng Weiqiao had just fled from Xiezhu Pavilion before. Therefore, she naturally didn’t make it easy for Sheng Shuihe, who had come to her room.However, Sheng Weirao was currently living in Zhuying Mini Villa. Sheng Weiqiao worried that if she squabbled with Sheng Shuihe, her cousin would be disturbed. Therefore, she didn’t make any trouble for him. She implied Gongsun Yingjiang to stop Sheng Weiwu, who couldn’t help herself but punch Sheng Shuihe. After inviting him to the stone table under the pergola in the backyard, she still called Lvjin to make tea for him, although she kept a poker face in this process.She had planned to ignore Sheng Shuihe for a while. But who knew that after they were seated, Lvjin and Lvqi had been asked to leave. When Sheng Weirao had just taken up the tea bowl and was about to make a gesture of concentrating on tasting tea, she suddenly heard Sheng Shuihe mention lightly. Then she
Shu Zhaoyi lost her soul and returned to the Xuanjing Emperor placed outside the bedchamber, and was about to go in to see how the Xuanjing Emperor slept ... After she came back with the Xuanjing Emperor, because she was anxious to go to interrogate Meng Guiyu alone, she excused herself to drink wine to drown her sorrows, and left the Xuanjing Emperor after she got him drunk.This moment back can not help but go in to see, who knows just to the door to see the two chamberlains eyes and nose guarding.Seeing Zhaoyi come over, their faces all changed, and they bowed tremblingly, saying, "Long live the Empress!""There are people inside?" Shu Zhaoyi asked with a raised eyebrow when she saw that despite their respectful attitude, they never had the intention to give way.The two chamberlains looked at each other, with trepidation in their eyes, knowing that the Shu sisters were in great favor and neither were good-tempered.Especially at this moment, the ne
Shu Zhaoyi's expression was harsh, but Meng Guiyu's face was calm, and he said in a deep voice, "Back to Lady Zhaoyi, I really didn't know about Your Highness's suffering at all!"He glanced at Shu Guifei's remains on the door panel not far away, "As for why His Majesty and Lady Zhaoyi found that Lady Guifei was missing, they issued an imperial edict for the forbidden army to search everywhere, and in the end, it was me who sent Lady Guifei to His Majesty as well as to Lady Zhaoyi.... Ma'am, I reported up before that Lady Guifei wasn't personally found by me, but was reported up after his men found it. personally found, but rather after my men found it and reported it up, I went to see it!""After all, I have been favored by the two empresses and have joined the forbidden army as the Grand Commander of the forbidden army. When the forbidden army discovers a clue, it is natural to report it to me first, and then I will convey it to His Majesty and you, Your Highness!"
"Your Highness!" Meng Gui Yu's expression was somber, his eyes were also red, stepped forward and cupped his fists and said, "After I learned that Your Highness and her attendants had disappeared, I couldn't believe that Your Highness had been in an accident! However, the Queen Consort lived in the Qiongxue Palace and the left side of the inch by inch search down, the Committee did not see any silhouettes, can only be dispersed towards the distance. At this time to listen to the water division side of the report, said the spring wave lake floated up ... floated up a number of people, all for the palace attire, the leader of the even more expensive clothes extraordinary, I ... ministers eleven million hope that it is a mistake!""But the minister to the lake, personally saw this body pomegranate red dress shirt ... I remember, two days ago also see your concubine through ...""This must be which bitchy servant girl, stole this palace sister's robe!!!" Shu Zhao Yi covered
The sky was overcast as if it were night before the rain poured down.In the back room of the assassin's residence, the doors and windows were closed, and it was too dim to see the outlines of things.Yi Liu dressed in Xuan Shirt strong clothing, full head of green silk also with the same color of the handkerchief tightly wrapped up, foot soft sole light boots, quietly stepped over the scarlet ground tangled branches of lotus pattern unicorn play beads rug.The short sword in his hand was coated in black paint, dark and heavy that would not emit any reflections, best suited for the immediate environment.She narrowed her eyes slightly so as not to let the luster between the flow of her bright eyes be detected by her opponent.The thunder outside the house had been raging for a long time, and her confrontation with her opponent had lasted even longer.She's in no hurry.In addition to the fact that this was the Assassin's Palace, the home bas
Rong Sleeping Crane was busy smiling and greeted her, "Auntie! I disturbed you last night, are you resting well now?"Xuan Yu Feng first looked him up and down, saw his gray head and face, and his clothes were dirty, then said in a pleasant manner, "I am an idle person anyway, it is nothing to make a mess once in a while, but it is you ... how did you get this? How to make such a mess? I just saw with you a piece of over the guards, are good, thought you also safe and sound it!"Let's just say that he, "Auntie knows that this child of yours is both literate and skilled in martial arts. But the so-called not in his position does not seek his own politics, you now is not to the district Gongsun clan to sell their lives of the Wuyi camp leader, but the king of the big Mu County, is the husband of Qiao Er, lemonade father of the king! If it is because of the first to fight, there are any shortcomings, you call Qiao'er mother and son in the future how to do?""What's mo
"..." Rong Sleeping Crane froze and said, "Good girl, although Meng Boqin is gone, the Northern Border may not be peaceful ah! And you also know that I secretly came from the Western Border this time, so after settling your mother and son, I will talk to uncle for a few more days, and also have to hurry to return to the Western Border."Sheng Weiqiao said, "You have urgent matters, you go to the western border first! I'll go over slowly with lemonade, at most it's just a few more days of traveling."She frowned slightly, ''Before I left from the Western Frontier in such a hurry, the things I lost down were just that, Geun Li, Ju Li those people, and the twelve niang and whatnot ... I'm telling you, if it wasn't for the fact that you were in the way of Meng Boqin before, and you said that it was safest to take the sea route to leave, I would have wanted to go to the Western Frontier to witness it no matter what. I'd like to go to the western border to see them before I fe
"Think of the good in things!" The plan to use Zhao Shi as a front failed, Rong Yuhe could only go alone to face his wife's doubts, he was on his way to comfort himself, "I can't say that my daughter is worried and scared alone in the camp, and she is satisfied to see that I am well past it. Why is it that things are happening differently from what she told me before, and she's not in the mood to get to the bottom of it, so I'll be able to get by with a few perfunctory sentences?"With that thought he looked down at his neat as new robes, pondered for a moment, and decisively halted his mount!The left and right guards were instantly aghast, taking off the bow hanging on the saddle and nocking arrows from the arrow pot at their waist while asking in a low voice, "County King?""... "Rong Sleeping Crane looked at them as if they were enemies, the corner of his mouth twitched, and said, "It's nothing. Well, you guys stay here, lone go to the side forest for a bit!"
The green-clothed boy heard, a face of "difficult to say" expression, once again look at Zhao Shi, mouth vaguely said, "I do not know how to say ... anyway... several stewards feel very difficult to make a judgment. ...Several stewards feel that it's very tricky and can't make a judgment, so I can only ask the County King to personally decide!"Seeing this situation, Zhao Shi raised an eyebrow and said to Rong Sleeping Crane, "I'm about to go out to see how things are going underneath, you guys talk over here!"Just take the old maid and go.The room is left with Rong Sleeping Crane and the boy, that boy immediately swept away the calm in front of Zhao Shi's master and servant, said in a tone of excitement mixed with inexplicable excitement, "County King! To tell you the truth, you may not believe it: brother Ah Xi, he ... actually slept with the Empress!!!"Yung Sleeping Crane, who has taken a hundred and twenty-thousand percent care and is ready to receive
Zhao Shi sniffed, froze for a good while, before asking with doubts, "You ... you send all the horses of your Western Frontier elite cavalry over? Then what about the direct line that you single-handedly trained?"Not waiting for Rong Sleeping Crane to answer, he shook his head again, "Not right! You kid has always been treacherous, not taking advantage of others would be good, how could you do something so self-sacrificing?!"Mind electric turn, suddenly eyes bright, breathing are a little short of breath, eagerly asked, "I remember you promised Deng Chen Liyu to help him raise his son and grandson ...?""I'm not as old as his grandson, what do you mean by helping him raise his son and grandson?" Rong Sleeping Crane cried and laughed, "It's just a promise to shelter a few of his heirs."Zhao suitable toward him leaned his body, attentive to ask, "The previous dynasty has the emperor Na Ru Ru princess as a consort, when Ru Ru accompanied by 10,000 horses, tha
