Yanmenchun

Chapter 77

Shen Tuchan didn't go into the inner room, she walked through the hall of the inn to the small yard, where the sweeping woman was feeding food to the fish pond, Shen Tuchan asked her for another jug ​​of wine, and she drank from the jug While watching the mother-in-law feed the fish.

She was sitting on a big rock beside the fish pond, she couldn't fall off, and the old woman was terrified when she saw it.

Jiang Lan looked at her with folded arms not far away. Shen Tuchan felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him, so she turned her head and said, "Your Highness, don't you want to rest?"

Jiang Lan looked away: "I'm afraid you're drunk."

Shen Tuchan might be really drunk, she giggled and said, "No, my drinking capacity is the same as my father's, and I can't pour a thousand cups."

She said that she was lying on the stone with her whole upper body. Jiang Lan approached and looked down at her. This was a very insecure gesture, but Shen Tuchan didn't care at all, she looked at the sky nonchalantly.

Jiang Lan couldn't help asking a question that he had been wondering for a long time: "When you were young, did you ever go into a snow-capped mountain?"

Shen Tuchan nodded, but did not speak.

Jiang Lan looked at the jug in her hand and asked again, "Why did you enter the snow mountain?"

Only then did Shen Tuchan give him a stingy look, and said nonchalantly: "I was murdered, I was tricked into it."

Although he had guessed for a long time, but hearing what Shen Tuchan said, Jiang Lan was still depressed.

Seeing that he didn't ask any more questions, Shen Tuchan propped herself up and sat up. She sat cross-legged on the stone, looked up at Jiang Lan and said, "Your Highness, I am just joining hands with the East Palace for mutual benefit. Your Highness just treat me normally."

Jiang Lan stared at her eyebrows and eyes: "What if I can't do it?"

This is very straightforward.

Shen Tuchan said very coldly: "Oh, that's your business."

After she finished speaking, she got up and left.

Jiang Lan didn't stop her, but sent her all the way to the door of the room before turning and leaving.

After that day at the inn, Shen Tuchan barely talked to Jiang Lan during the second half of the journey back to Beijing.

Even Xiao Man could see that something was wrong, and said curiously: "Miss, do you hate His Highness King Yan?"

Shen Tuchan shook her head: "I don't hate it."

Xiao Man was even more puzzled, and Shen Tuchan had no choice but to explain: "He is very good, but I don't care about it."

Xiaoman nodded and stopped talking, she would not have such stupid questions anymore, King Yan would not have a concubine who was far away at the border.

As long as Shen Tuchan doesn't take revenge, she won't get married. Jiang Lan can't afford to wait for her.

After entering the capital city, Shen Tuchan went to Cilian Temple, and Jiang Lan returned to Yanwang Mansion.

The vernal equinox is already in the Cilian Temple, and gray hairs are about to grow.

Seeing Shen Tuchan's return, she knelt down and saluted with tears in her eyes, and said in her mouth: "It's really the Buddha's blessing, the Bodhisattva's blessing, the lady's trip is safe and sound."

Shen Tuchan only stayed in the temple for one day before returning to Zhenbeihou Mansion.

As soon as the old lady saw her, she pulled her and said: "I'm thin, there is no flesh on my face, look, this thin chin is even pointed."

These words are a bit exaggerated, but Shen Tuchan lost some weight because of eating and sleeping in the open. She smiled and said nothing.

When coming out of the old lady's room, Shentu Danlin asked, "How was your trip?"

Standing in the gazebo, the vernal equinox in the capital city is very windy, Shen Tuchan stretched out her hand into the wind, as if trying to catch the wind, she looked at the tree trunk that had sprouted green shoots and said: "I have already got the answer. "

Before Shentu Danlin could ask, he grabbed the wind again with his hand: "Brother, I must kill Li Xiangshan."

Shentu Danlin looked at her resolute expression, and suddenly understood that the death of his parents must have something to do with Li Xiangshan, he took a step forward, and asked eagerly: "Did he kill my parents? "

Shen Tuchan acquiesced, turned to look at him and said, "I must let him die."

Shentu Danlin clenched his fist heavily, the revenge of killing relatives is irreconcilable.

After Shen Tuchan said that sentence, she quickly restrained her hatred and asked, "Has there been any major events in Beijing recently?"

Shentu Danlin's expression was serious: "Yes, the food allocated to Sichuan and Shu was looted by refugees in Hanzhong."

Shen Tuchan was playing while walking on the road, the news had already spread to the capital, and the court probably became a mess.

Shentu Danlin knew at a glance that this matter was related to her, so he said in detail: "The following only reported the looting by the refugees, His Majesty was furious, and was about to send people to investigate, when there was another news that Hanzhong Commander Si Yuan Zhi was assassinated, died in his own house, and was decapitated directly."

When he said this, he looked at Shen Tuchan without blinking. Shen Tuchan's expression was normal, and he said: "The court is in chaos, and everyone thinks that the people below must have a different heart, but the people below There was another news that Hanzhong was impoverished, the government suppressed it, and the refugees starved to death. Although His Majesty was suspicious, the prince tried his best to ask His Majesty not to punish the crime first, and sending imperial envoys is the most important thing. Looting military and official rations is a serious crime, but if Hanzhong is poor , starving and dying everywhere, how can he be punished rashly."

"What's the final result?" Shen Tuchan couldn't help asking.

Shentu Danlin smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty sent an imperial envoy to hand over this matter to the Crown Prince to investigate. You have won."

Shen Tuchan didn't laugh, but said seriously: "No, we won when he really peeled off his skin, but we have to win."

Li Xiangshan won Mobei, and she wanted Hanzhong.

Feng Yingru wrote many letters during the days when Shentuchan was out of Beijing, and Shentuchan sent a post to Feng's family on the same day.

She originally went out without telling Feng Yingru, but she didn't intend to hide it when she came back. She went to Feng's residence and brought a gift for Feng Yingru on the way.

Feng Yingru was a little surprised when she saw that she had brought so many things, so Shen Tuchan smiled and listened to her and told her about her trip to Hanzhong.

Feng Ying was astonished and checked her back and forth to see if she was injured.

Shen Tuchan was very itchy by her touch, so she avoided it and said, "It's so good, nothing happened."

Feng Yingru sighed. Although she was a casual and open-minded person, Shen Tuchan was not only casual, but also willful.

She pinched Shen Tuchan's nose and said, "You, who can stop you!"

Shen Tuchan smiled and said nothing.

Feng Yingru then said the serious matter of calling her over: "You are about to pass, what are you going to do with your graduation ceremony?"

Shen Tuchan was stunned for a moment, she had completely forgotten that there was such a thing, and the noble girls and Ji in the capital city had to do something about it.

Seeing her bewildered face, Feng Yingru worried for her and said, "Although it's autumn, I'm excited, so I wanted to help you out a long time ago. I will be a praiser. If Princess Baoqing doesn't become another If you like it, I will ask Lord Xianrong to be another liker, as your honorable guest, it would be best if Prince Gong and Princess Concubine are willing, and if you don’t, please invite my mother!"

She talked and laughed.

Feng Yingru was doing it entirely for her own good, the higher the status of the praiser and guest, the better.

Shen Tuchan naturally had no possibility of refusing the good intentions, and said with a smile: "Of course, I'll listen to you."

Feng Yingru smiled again and said, "Then the next time I see Princess Baoqing, I will ask her directly."

Before Shen Tuchan nodded, Feng Yingru continued: "Old Madam, remember to prepare a hair crown for you? To be on the safe side, I'll go to my mother to ask for a good one. My mother has good things from the first queen mother."

Those things should have been reserved for Feng Yingru as a dowry, Shen Tuchan quickly refused after hearing this, "Si Si is really nice, but my grandmother remembers this, don't worry, my grandmother has a lot of good things."

Feng Yingru asked uncertainly, "Really?"

"It's true." Shen Tuchan replied affirmatively, but she thought of the things her mother left her, and the hairpins her mother once brought.

Feng Yingru had no choice but to give up.
