Across the Market

Chapter 223

Shen Yulou promised: "Mother, don't worry, my son will not disappoint you. My son will definitely win the spirit of the ancestors of the Shen family and my father, and honor the Shen family."

Aunt Shen's complexion suddenly changed, and then the expression on her face became more painful, she just murmured softly: "Yes, let your father live up to you... You must study hard and be a good man, and let your father take a look at it in the future to see who it is! The son you gave birth to is good. Yulou, you must live up to your mother."

Shen Yulou supported his mother, and continued to promise her: "Mother, don't worry, my son knows it well. If he doesn't pass Jieyuan in this township examination, his son will have no face to come back to see your mother."

"Okay, okay." Aunt Shen nodded again and again, holding Shen Yulou's hand with tears in her eyes, and said, "My son promises me that in the future, he will definitely become famous and strive for my mother."

Shen Yulou made another promise, then comforted Aunt Shen, and then personally sent Aunt Shen to the house to rest.

When he came out of his mother's house, he stopped by the kitchen, quietly watching the girl he liked wearing an apron and cooking with a large spoon in her hand.

Looking at such a warm picture, his heart suddenly felt warm, and he immediately thought about the future.

In fact, many times, the so-called ambitions in his heart were imposed on him by his mother since he was a child.In the past, the family was so poor that it was almost impossible to get rid of the pot. My mother would rather do more work every day to support him in his studies.Sometimes he didn't quite understand why his mother insisted on making him study for academic achievement, and why he wanted him to study beyond what the family could bear.

But he is a filial son, since he was a child, he did what his mother said, and never disobeyed his mother.

The only thing he didn't listen to his mother was that he wanted to marry Ah Fu as his wife, and wanted to be with Ah Fu forever.

While Zhu Fu was cooking, she always felt that someone behind her was looking at her. She suddenly turned her head and saw Shen Yulou standing quietly in the small courtyard with gentle and longing eyes.

Shen Yulou walked towards the kitchen, glanced at her younger sister Shen Yuzhu and said, "Yuzhu, I have something to say to Ah Fu, you go out first."

Shen Yuzhu winked at her brother, then smiled and went over to pinch Zhu Fu's cheek, and then ran away.

Zhu Fu stopped his movements, thinking of just now, his face was still slightly blush.

Seeing that she was not angry, Shen Yulou breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Ah Fu, I didn't have time to ask you just now, is there something important that you came to see me today?"

Zhu Fu nodded lightly and said, "Fuji's business is good now, so it will always expand its business in the future, so there are some things that we should understand."

Shen Yulou understood, frowned and said, "Do you want to know about the situation in the court?"

Zhu Fu said: "I just find it strange that with the fourth prince around, who would dare to be reckless?" She subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Shen Yulou, and said softly, "Listening to what Mr. Xie means, I'm afraid that the recent Songyang County A big event is about to happen, and anyone who dares to commit crimes under the eyes of the Fourth Prince must be either one of the Fourth Prince's own people, or someone who is as powerful as the Fourth Prince. No matter which one is, it can make Mr. Zhao and Mr. Xie troublesome of."

Although Shen Yulou was just a scholar, when he was studying at Jinling Academy, he had many classmates who came from Kyoto, and he heard a lot of them in his spare time, so he knew a lot.

The birth mother of the fourth prince is the Xian Concubine Cui, and the birth mother of the sixth prince is the Concubine Li Zheng. Cui and Zheng are both famous families.In addition, the queen has always been childless, and only a few years ago, she adopted a boy from a concubine with a very low status, that is, the tenth prince.

Now the court is divided into three factions. Although it looks peaceful on the surface, it is already turbulent secretly.

Shen Yulou briefly told Zhu Fu about the matter, and told her that even if she does business, she must not involve herself in the battles of these forces in the future.

Zhu Fu naturally nodded in response.

That night, Zhao Jing sent someone to Zhang's house to arrest Zhang Facai.

Aunt Wei originally held a glimmer of hope, but now she saw that the people in the yamen came directly to arrest him, and she was completely flustered.

Zhang Facai shouted loudly: "My lord, I was wronged, I was wronged." He didn't believe that he was taken away just like that. The aunt told him just now that the second girl of the Zhu family had died. Go to the Yamen to intercede for him.

But what happened?Instead, it was called Yachai to come faster.

Zhang Facai stomped his feet angrily, his bloated face was beaded with oily sweat, and his cry was comparable to that of a pig being slaughtered.

Zhao Tiehua tightly pressed his body that was about to break free with iron hands, and reprimanded him with a cold face: "Be honest, if you have anything to say, go to the yamen!"

Aaron also said: "There is evidence to arrest you. If the county magistrate hadn't found the evidence, how could he arrest you for no reason? Be honest with me, don't try to play tricks! Let's go!"

Aunt Wei cried all the way and watched her husband go out, until her husband disappeared from his back, she turned around silently, and then the tears in her eyes couldn't stop flowing out.

But at this time, a black shadow lying quietly on the roof left quickly like a gust of wind.
