Happy Marriage

An Sheng lowered the curtain of the car, listening to the louder voices outside, mixed with bursts of scolding: "Get out, get out, get out of the way!"

The children ran after the car, shouting loudly as they ran: "Crazy woman, crazy woman."

Then he scolded even louder: "Get out of the way, don't interfere with our official business."

The car was rolling, and it turned out to be passing on this street.

It was probably because Xia Ziwu's story was too lively in the capital, mixed with the kind of shady and ambiguous things, which always made people excited and explored, and there were endless speculations. Many people poured out of the shop, stood on both sides of the street to watch the lively scene, gesticulating and blocking a street.

For a time, you stepped on my shoes, I squeezed your bun crooked, full of complaints.

After all, An Sheng couldn't help it, he lifted the curtain of the car to a corner and looked outside.

Xia Ziwu was locked in a prison car, with unkempt hair and blood stains on his face, his eyes staring straight ahead, full of ashes.

She placed herself on the back of the tiger, and there was no light in front of her.

This life is probably over like this.

Leng Nanxian stretched out his hand behind himself and gently covered her eyes: "It's okay not to look at it."

An Sheng closed his eyes and leaned into the warm embrace of the person behind him.

For many days after Xia Ziwu left, the Xue family was crying, and her spirit was not as good as the day.

Member Xia was so devastated that he became unwilling to enter that house again, and was even a little timid.

Even above the court, it was difficult for him to look up, for fear of seeing the slightly strange eyes of his colleagues.

They did not dare to blatantly test and ridicule, not because of their affection, but because of the Dingguo Houfu.

Everyone in Beijing knows that Yu Shizi of Dingguo Marquis Mansion holds Xia Mansion's daughter Xia Ansheng in his hand. Who would dare to be so blind?

Even after the old marquis returned to Beijing, he met Xia Yuan in the hall, and they all laughed and chatted with a familiar look.

Privately, the people of the DPRK and the Chinese believe that the two families are tacitly acquiescing in the matter of their children, and they are just waiting for it.

Marquis Dingguo never mentioned anything about the relationship between An Sheng and Yu Jingyun, but was very enthusiastic about Xia Yuanwai.

Xia Yuanwai thought in his heart that it was just that the heat had not yet arrived.

If you really climb to the Dingguohou Mansion, you will rise with the tide, even if you can't soar to the top in your lifetime, and go to the next level, at least this honor will be enough for you to travel unimpeded on the court, and you won't be as difficult as the first half of your life.

In the court on this day, the discussion was about the entry of the envoys of Xiliang to Beijing. In addition to defense is the top priority, the first thing that bears the brunt is the diplomatic relations between the two countries.

This is about the stability of the diplomatic relations between the two countries and the stability of the society. Others spoke lightly, and there was no place to interject.

After the dynasty was dispersed, outside the palace gate, Xia Yuanwai met Taishi Shen.

Shen Taishi has a high position and authority, so when he retired from the court, he walked in the front of the hundred officials. At this time, he was not in a hurry to get on the carriage, but stood outside the palace gate and looked behind him, as if he was waiting for someone on purpose.

He is the minister of the humerus of the current emperor. He is like his father and is respected by all officials. Therefore, all the civil and military officials passed by him and bowed their hands to say goodbye.

Only Marquis Dingguo was an exception. Marquis Dingguo and Taishi Shen were not in harmony. When they got together, they would quarrel. It's just that everyone doesn't know where the grievances between the two came from.

The Marquis of Dingguo beat Taishi Shen and passed by, blowing his beard, raised his face high, and tsk tsk: "Master Taishi, if you are a single person, you have nowhere to go after going down, you can sit in my Dingguohou mansion. "

There is only himself in Shen Taishi's mansion, no wife and children. This is a matter known to the civil and military of the whole dynasty. Everyone also thinks that the words of Dingguohou are ridiculing Shen Taishi for having no heirs.

Taishi Shen was not annoyed, but just smiled slightly: "The flowers in your Dingguohou mansion are becoming more and more charming, and the changes are too impermanent. I really have no luck with Shen."

Marquis Dingguo snorted softly: "That's better than standing alone and backing to the mansion to endorse against the wall."

Taishi Shen's face was obviously radiant and cheerful in the past two days: "This is to calm the mind and calm the mind, to be frugal in order to cultivate morality, to read and to be happy, and to cultivate one's self-cultivation."

Marquis Dingguo gave a shudder exaggeratedly, clutching his teeth: "Sour, sour, so sour, so sour that my teeth hurt, I can't stand you scholars who keep their mouths open and shut their mouths, and it's as if they don't eat grains and miscellaneous grains, and they are like fireworks in the world. , but a mouth, it is a rancid smell."

Seeing that the war between the two was about to escalate again, the civil and military officials quietly stepped aside to avoid being affected by the war, and they were suddenly dragged over to judge.

One civil and one military, the backbone of the family, the two humerus ministers who supported Chang'an for half a day, arguing and arguing like a child.

In the end, when it is difficult to tell the difference, I like to find someone to judge, and distinguish between right and wrong.

Xia Yuanwai was no exception. He was full of awe for Shen Taishi, but his relationship with Dingguohoufu was not ordinary. If it was mixed in, it would not be good for anyone.

Therefore, when they passed by Shen Taishi and Dingguohou, they also bowed their hands respectfully and had to avoid them.

However, Taishi Shen stopped arguing with Marquis Dingguo and stopped Member Xia: "Master Xia!"

Member Xia paused and glanced left and right, only to believe that he was indeed calling him.

Shen Taishi actually took the initiative to speak to himself, he felt a little flattered.

He hurriedly stood still, and raised his hand to salute Shen Taishi again: "Master Taishi, what advice do you have?"

Taishi stepped forward and supported Xia Yuanwai.

"Why should Master Xia be more polite?"

Outside Xia Yuan, when he saw Taishi Shen, who was highly respected and respected, he couldn't help being excited: " Taishi Shen is worried about the country and the people.

The Duke of Dingguo on the side snorted lightly: "The hard work is true, but the merit is not necessarily high."

Xia Yuanwai felt that what he said might be inappropriate, and the Duke of Dingguo had an opinion on him, and he was a little embarrassed for a while.

Taishi Shen smiled "hehe", but did not take Dingguohou's ridicule to heart: "Master Xia is so polite, it's good to see the outside world, I have a long history with the second lady of your house, and I have long wanted to find you for a cup of tea. Today It's better to meet by chance, let's go to the teahouse and sit for a while, I wonder if Master Xia will appreciate your face?"

Shen Taishi personally invited the invitation, and Xia Yuanwai was so excited that his face was flushed with excitement: "The lower official is so honored, I can't ask for it. However, Master Taishi actually knows the little girl?"

Taishi twitched his beard and smiled: "Not only do I know it, but I like it very much."

Member Xia grinned with excitement: "How lucky is the little girl to be able to love the teacher?"

Marquis Dingguo interjected reluctantly: "An Sheng is a smart and clever girl, who doesn't like it? Master Xia is really lucky."

Xia Yuanwai immediately responded enthusiastically: "Master Hou has won awards and awards, the little girl is too rude, and she can actually catch your eyes."

The master smiled slightly: "The first time I saw Ling Ai, I knew that she was a thrifty and kind-hearted child, and I liked it from the bottom of my heart, so I wanted to sit down with Master Xia for a long time. This is not a place to talk, Let's find a clean and elegant place, sit down and drink two cups of tea, what do you think?"

When Marquis Dingguo heard the words of Taishi Shen, his heart suddenly became a little anxious. Seeing the signs, he was thinking of getting ahead!

Although he is a rude person, he is clear-sighted, and he can see some things clearly.

Originally, that kid Leng Nanxian was close to the water tower, and hugged the girl Xia Ansheng in front of him. Now that everyone else is starting to get dressed up, isn't he a step too late?

He grabbed Member Xia's sleeve and said, "There is no good banquet in the meeting, so he invited you to tea out of nowhere, that is because the weasel has no good intentions for the New Year's greetings to the chicken, so you must not go. Let's go, the two of us. Go to the restaurant for a drink, and rest when you are drunk, that is the true nature of a man."

And Taishi Shen didn't show weakness here, he stretched the other sleeve outside Member Xia: "This is a personal matter between me and Mr. Xia, what is it with you? Do you need to point your fingers here and speak out?"

Since then, all the civil and military officials who passed by looked at Xia Yuanwai sympathetically, just as if he was implicated in the dispute between the two again.

Xia Yuanwaiguo is really a bit embarrassed. As far as the public is concerned, he should be impartial and maintain neutrality.

For privately speaking, since he and Dingguohoufu have a relationship, they are the future in-laws, and they should be one-sided.

He was a little embarrassed and said to Taishi Shen: "I still have something to do in the house today, why don't I go to the office another day, and I would like to invite Master Taishi and Hou Ye to have a drink?"

When Taishi Shen saw that the Duke of Dingguo was staring at him today, he seemed to have insight into his own mind. If he didn't speak quickly, he was afraid that he would be robbed first.

He smiled slightly, taking retreat as advance: "I just heard that Mr. Xia has some unique views on the aspect of national taxation, so I want to listen carefully and discuss with Mr. Xia. Although this is a confidential matter, Mr. Hou is a I am a loyal and brave person in Chang'an, it is fine to listen to it, and the Hou Ye can go with us."

Shen Taishi's remarks are not without purpose. Although Xia Yuanwai has served in the Ministry of Household for so long, although it is true that he has not achieved anything, he does have a little bit of Jiujiu in his heart. If you can go to the Holy Listening through Master Taishi, this is really a credit. Therefore, he was a little moved for a while.

Shen Taishi took the opportunity to say: "Let's go, Lord Hou, I am the host today, let's go to Lanyuelou for tea?"

As for the Marquis of Dingguo, he was most afraid of listening to the civil servants discussing state affairs together. He listened to him with no clue, and he had two big heads. What's more, he came to the court before dawn, and listened to the "good policy" for a long time in the courtroom. National Capital", has long been tireless.

Although he has the intention to put a pole between the two, but think about the twisted tea ceremony, and when the two of you will come and go, talk endlessly, chat with enthusiasm, and sit beside yourself is embarrassed.

So he snorted softly: "Who cares about your cup of bitter tea? The tea cup is not as big as my wine cup, and it is not very refreshing to drink."
