The Pearl of the Lady

135 Chapter 2 Breaking the Marriage ([-])
The aunt's thick palm patted the woman's back. The woman coughed and nodded, "Ahem, yes, Shen Ling, I don't ask you to take responsibility. I will raise the child by myself. In the future, I will tell the child that his father is a Very nice people."

The February exam, now August, Shen Yuran took a look at the woman's belly, "I think the girl is well-proportioned, she doesn't look like she is more than six months pregnant."

"Yes... yes." Everyone suddenly realized.

Everyone around looked at the woman's waist and abdomen, and the aunt let go of her hand, looking suspiciously.

"I... I remember wrongly, Shen Ling went back to see me once before, probably it was about that time."

"Can you remember this kind of thing wrong? The girl's memory is really not very good." Shen Yuran was so angry that she was framed like this, and she spoke lightly and mocked.

The woman was obviously at a loss, and she hesitated and couldn't speak.

"Where did the shameless person come from to slander Zhuangyuan Lang?"

"I said that Zhuangyuan Lang is not such a person?"

"I... I recognized the wrong person." The woman dropped this sentence, covered her face and ran away.

The crowd also dispersed, and the aunt patted Shen Yuran on the shoulder, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."

What can Shen Yuran say, aunt is just an ordinary person.I can only wave my hand helplessly, indicating that it's okay, let's go.

Wei Qi took a small silver spoon and was scraping the fruit puree to feed the red feather bell (a kind of bird with a melodious song) inside.

He was silent for a moment after hearing his subordinate's report.

He continued to feed the little bird without changing his face, and nodded, "I know this king, I don't raise fools, sell it a little farther away, let's go down."

He teased the little bird with a spoon, and hummed a few jokes softly, "It's just that I have a sudden opinion, and I can't let it go, but it's not that the past has been seen, and this life continues the past."

The little bird seemed to be making fun of it, and when it called, the red feather bell sounded very pleasant. Wei Qi put down the spoon, took a sip from the teacup, and closed his eyes, as if he was enjoying the bird's call.

"Pray for the mother-in-law."

"My son, sit down quickly. How are you doing? In a few days it will be your opening day. Are you ready? When your aunt visited me in the palace a few days ago, she said that your uncle had prepared a gift for you." Woolen cloth."

Wei Qi smiled and sat down, "It's all ready, everything over there is complete, there is no need to move the furniture, just move some books and soft goods over there, and the banquet is also prepared, don't worry, I will invite uncle .”

He Jieyu's mind was broken, so she wasn't embarrassed, she just smiled, "Mother knows you are filial, so it's just a word of advice."

She has not been favored all these years, women in the harem can't earn favors, what do they live for, don't they live for their mother's family and their son? Yes, the He family is his natal family after all, if the natal family gets up, it will also help the second prince.

"What's your mother doing lately?"

"Your sister is also 15 years old this year, and it's time to get married. The queen doesn't care at all. I've been busy picking candidates recently."

What she said was a false complaint. I'm really happy. If the queen cares, He Jieyu will be afraid. She and the queen are not close. She offended the queen in the early years, and she was on guard against the queen's marriage to the third princess. One by one, the concubines were worried that the queen knew what she was thinking, so she didn't bother to bother, so she simply let her figure it out on her own. Anyway, His Majesty had to decide who was chosen, and he always had to check it out.

Wei Qi smiled, "The concubine mother has been picked out."

"Not yet. We have to find someone from a good family background to help you. Your sister is asking too much. This is not good and that is not good. I have been bothered by this matter recently."

"My son has a suitable candidate to recommend."

"Tell me."

"This year's new champion, Shen Yuran."

"I've heard of this person before. I heard that he is young and talented, but...is his family background poor?" He Jieyu was a little hesitant.

"Shen Yuran was born in the Shen family in the south of the Yangtze River. The Shen family is a big name in the literary world, and Jiangnan is also a place where talented people come out. Many court officials have studied in the Shen family's academy. His family has a high status among the literati. It's also a force."

After all, He Jieyu came from a small family, and she didn't know anything about Chaoshang. After hearing what Wei Qi said, she nodded and said, "I just don't know if your sister likes it or not. After all, it is her lifelong event." .”

Wei Qi smiled and nodded, "Of course my sister is willing, but I think my sister will like him. If I have a chance in the next few days, I will arrange for my sister to meet Shen Yuran. If my sister is willing, let's talk about it with my father."

He Jieyu nodded, "My son is thoughtful, and you have to consider your own affairs. You will be [-] this year, Princess Anle."

Wei Qi interrupted He Jieyu's words, "Mother and concubine don't need to talk about it, my son knows it well."

"Brother, why did you bring me here?"

"I sent you this season's jewelry, and I haven't finished watching it yet?" Wei Ting complained impatiently.

Wei Qi patted her to stand up straight, "Take you out for a breath of fresh air."

"Master Shen, go slowly."

"My father-in-law stays, there is no need to send it off."

Shen Yuran has just arrived at the Hanlin Academy, and she is mainly responsible for sorting and sorting work, but if you want to improve your work, you can't arrange any work for you, so you can do whatever you want. go ahead.

Shen Yuran took over the extra job of delivering booklets to His Majesty. This job is actually not a good job. The road is far away. It is impossible for you to ride a horse or a sedan chair in the palace, so you have to walk. If you can see Your Majesty, that's okay It's worth it, this job is not Shen Yuran's turn, but you can't see His Majesty for this matter, the process is like this, take the paperwork to the door of the inner study, and the eunuch will take it in and present it to Your Majesty.

So no one is fighting for this job. Where are the senior ministers? One said that he was old, and the other said that he was unwell. Shen Yuran took the initiative to take over this job. Zhou Yi even laughed at him several times without seeing His Majesty.

But opportunities are reserved for those who are willing. Maybe when His Majesty will be free and have nothing to do. He wants to ask about the usual work of the Imperial Academy. It happens that Shen Yuran is well prepared. He can not only answer the classification questions, but also other questions of His Majesty All the questions were answered very well, and the chat was very pleasant.

Knowing this, everyone regretted it, but His Majesty has already said that this job is yours, young people do it well.

Then other people can only envy, there is no other way, Zhou Yi was so angry that he rolled his eyes at Shen Yuran a lot.

Shen Yuran had to go to the imperial study every day, and it was impossible for him to see His Majesty every time, but he could see His Majesty once every ten days and half a month, which was much better than others.

It's far away, let's not mention it, Wei Ting can't go out of the palace, and this is the only chance to see Shen Yuran.

Shen Yuran handed the booklet to the manager, and said goodbye politely.

Wei Ting became impatient and anxious, and complained to Wei Qi, "The sun is so strong that it makes me dizzy. What if I get tanned?"

Wei Qi said, "You're not in vain." He patted Wei Ting on the shoulder, "Look over there."

Wei Ting pouted, "Is there anything to see, I'm so annoying."

Then I was stunned.

The young man is wearing an ordinary official uniform, but he looks very unusual, probably because the blue color suits him especially, making him appear chic and upright, handsome but not weak, his bearing is excellent, not to mention his appearance.

The strength of Chang'an City proves his beauty, can he not look good, Shen Yuran smiled politely at the manager, and Wei Ting here was also drunk in his dimples.

Pulling Wei Qi's sleeve, he kept asking, "Who is that?"

Wei Qi smiled slightly, and said softly, "That's Shen Yuran, the new champion."
