The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 785 Yuan Shi
"My lord, please stop!"

As soon as Sheng Yuan left the street, he heard a gentle female voice not far away.

Looking back, a middle-aged lady came out of the carriage.

This woman looked unfamiliar, but she was very pleased with Sheng Yuan's name!
Eh? !This lady seems... very good at talking!

Sheng Yuan had a good impression of her, turned the rein, straightened his body and asked kindly: "Why did Madam call me?"

The noble lady bowed, lowered her eyes and announced her family name: "I am the wife of Duke An."

Upon hearing the other party's background, the kindness on Sheng Yuan's face disappeared in an instant, and even his tone became a little cold: "So you are Mrs. An Guogong! Disrespect and disrespect! Mrs. Yuan, I will be on duty soon, and I really don't have time to greet you , stay here!"

After that, she flicked her wrist, urging the steed to turn around.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Sheng!" Seeing that Sheng Yuan's words and deeds were exactly as he had inquired about, Mrs. Yuan rushed after him a few steps, and said quickly, "Before the old lady's words and deeds were inappropriate, I am here to make amends to you."

He was about to bend his knees.

"If you don't make it up, then you don't need it!" The horse's hoof moved a few steps to the side, Sheng Yuan avoided the other party's salute, "Old Mrs. An Guogong has already been punished, after she thinks about her mistakes, she will go to reflect in front of the Queen Mother."

Yuan said with a wry smile: "Anyway, it's because of my son that you, Mr. Shan, were shocked... As the saying goes, if the son doesn't teach, it's the fault of the parents, and I will make amends."

This person is a "Sheng Daren", no matter how she cares about it, Sheng Yuan is very comfortable with her words and deeds, so even if she refuses, her attitude is much better than before.

But Yuan's didn't want her to have a good attitude: "Master Sheng, may I invite you to the carriage to have a talk?"

"No!" Sheng Yuan immediately shook his head, "Mrs. An Guogong, you are a family member of a sinner, and I work in Dali Temple, how can you talk about it in private?

Besides, Zuo Sicheng is in charge of the son's case, so it's not easy for me to intervene. If you want to find a way, you knock on the wrong door. "

"No, no, Mr. Shanda misunderstood, I want the dog to make meritorious deeds!"

"Oh?!" Her words made Sheng Yuan interested.

The Yuan family saw that there was something going on, and hurriedly made persistent efforts: "Master Sheng, some words are of great importance. I am afraid that the walls have ears, so I have no choice but to invite you to the carriage to explain in detail."

Sheng Yuan's eyes wandered between her and the carriage.

To be honest, she really wanted to hear what the other party had to say.

"A quarter of an hour at most! I dare not delay my lord's official duties!"

"Okay!" Sheng Yuan nodded his head, intending to satisfy his curiosity, and quickly jumped off the horse.

"Miss!" Xiaoyao, who had been following silently by her side, suddenly called her.

"It's okay." Sheng Yuan smiled and handed the rein to Xiaoyao, "You heard it all, if Mrs. An Guogong and I chatted about a cup of tea at most, you don't have to follow, just wait outside! It's worth it!"

"I'll watch over the window for you." Xiaoyao cooperated with the horse and turned to the side of the carriage.

……

As soon as Sheng Yuan got into the car and took a seat, Yuan Shi hurriedly whispered: "I am not strict in teaching my son, I have violated the national law, so it is not too much to send him into exile... It's just that Brother Hai is not bad in nature, I want him to make meritorious deeds and atone for his crimes. I also ask Master Shanda to give him a chance to reform himself, so that he can make some contributions to Da Chu."

As Yuanshi spoke, her voice was full of weeping.

No one can help but soften their hearts in sighs after seeing that love for their children.

Unfortunately, Sheng Yuan was unmoved.

"Since Madam said so, I will believe it! Madam is so clear about righteousness, why don't you go and confess to Zuo Sicheng yourself, and the sentence may not be changed."

"Master Sheng, don't make fun of my mother and son!" Yuan Shi had a bit of a headache, and she said with a wry smile, "Our mother and son want to make meritorious service and atone for our crimes, and only you can help. If you don't care, we dare not fight with the first one." Two people said it!"

"It sounds...it seems that the news is quite valuable?" Sheng Yuan nodded, "Then tell me, but if it's not worth enough, I won't accept it."

"Yes." Yuan could only nod helplessly when she heard what Sheng Yuan meant.

"My son, Brother Hai, is not a bad boy. The reason why he violated the national law is because of other reasons..."

"The family members of those who committed crimes say so." Sheng Yuan waved his hands impatiently when she saw that she was laying the groundwork.

She wanted Yuan's words to be more concise, but the nervous Yuan didn't understand, she thought Sheng Yuan was impatient to listen, and said quickly: "It's true! I really didn't lie to you! He went with Brother Cong from the Ning family. Nan Province, the intention is to go on a study tour, to open your eyes and gain insights."

She spoke eagerly, without waiting for Sheng Yuan to talk, and hurriedly said: "It's just because of the relationship between my previous son and my husband. After Jiang Geer became sensible, he had a suspicion of Hai Geer...My Hai Geer is only five or six years old. He determined to earn a family business by himself.

But the old man and the old lady let the children in the family study and take exams... Others are okay, but my brother Hai can't continue to study. When he was ten years old, he seemed to find another way out, but because of this, the old man and the old lady He Guogong is more strict with him.

My brother Hai has limited aptitude, he is not good at reading, let alone the imperial examination?I saw that he was having a hard time, so I took advantage of his age to study abroad and let him go to Nan Province with Brother Ning Jiacong.First of all, I heard people say that this book is also a mastery of everything, and if you meet a good teacher and helpful friend on the way to study, he will get through the key points, which may not be beneficial.

Secondly, I want him to relax, otherwise, the good boy will become perverted!
Furthermore, I also want to give him a chance to practice and see if he can find a job that suits him. After all, no matter how big the Duke’s Mansion is, most of it is for Brother Jiang. His family property is limited, and in the end, it is up to him to live well or not.

A few months ago, he wrote in a letter saying that he had found a big deal. If it succeeds, he can earn a lot of money by himself like his cousin Brother Yu, and he will honor us in the future... But who would have thought that he would He committed the crime of smuggling and selling coarse salt to sea! "

Fearing that Sheng Yuan would be impatient, Yuanshi said these words without taking a breath.

Sheng Yuan, who listened to other people's family affairs with great interest, didn't remember why she was sitting here until Yuan stopped.

"This means that your son is eager for quick success!" Sheng Yuan commented with a smile that was not a smile, "Mrs. An Guogong, from what you have said, your son seems to be justifiable... But the harm caused by people who are eager for quick success is not small. If you offer aid to the enemy, who will the common people who have been victimized by the enemy turn to for reason?!"

Yuan's heart became tense when he heard the words, and he didn't dare to procrastinate immediately, so he hurriedly said: "Brother Hai should be punished for this move, but Mr. Sheng, if you think about it, just because he and Brother Cong are indistinguishable Inactive sons and daughters, just left the capital, how capable are they to smuggle and sell salt in other places?!"

As soon as she said this, Sheng Yuan showed a serious expression on his face.
