Seeing Shen Rui doing this, Xu was stunned: "Didn't Brother Rui have had a good time with Brother Shou? The new friends you have made in the past two years are only three, two..."

"As the saying goes, don't listen to the old man's words and suffer losses. Although I don't know what's the most powerful relationship, my father's knowledge must be better than mine. My father must do this for my own good." Shen Rui said with a little sadness.

Xu originally wanted to reveal Shou Ge's identity directly in front of Shen Rui, but when he saw this, he felt compassion.

Shen Rui was like a little adult, and only showed a little childlike appearance when he was with Gao Wenhu, Shouge and others. Now even if he is filial to elders and obedient and obedient, he will definitely be reluctant to leave his new friends.

Xu swallowed the words on his lips and comforted him: "Don't think too much, maybe your father might be flexible... After a day of fatigue, you go back and rest, and ask the kitchen to take hot soup to drive away the cold at night, and stay outside for a while..."

Shen Rui responded and came out of the room, feeling guilty in his heart.

On a whim, did you scare Xu?

If you think about it carefully, you are really reckless.

If Brother Shou did not come to the Shen family, everyone would gather outside. Even if there was a mistake, it would be the responsibility of the guards. He would be vented by his side and be angry. When Brother Shou came to the Shen family, the Shen family would not be able to escape from the safety of the Shen family.

Such as poisoning and assassination are too fantastic and can’t be easily touched, but even if it’s a blow-out or a stomachache, it’s hard to say that the Shen family will be harmed by the emperor and the queen.

The panic between the Third Master and Xu is understandable.

On the contrary, because I had not experienced the power of imperial power, I actually used these clever tricks to put the Shen family in danger.

How many years can the friendship between this young man with the East Palace last?

If you fail to pass the imperial examination in ten or eight years, and you cannot pass the imperial examination three times or five times after the imperial examination, let alone what the Zhengde Dynasty will do, you can't say that you can get into the Jiajing Dynasty in one go.

As expected, after being a "little three yuan", he became a little fluttering and put the cart before the horse.

The most important thing at the moment is the imperial examination.

Shen Rui thought this way and after returning to Jiuruju, he picked up the book again.

Even though he knew that the provincial examination was not easy, he still planned to take a try in the next year. After all, there would be less than two years left.

When Shen Jue woke up, his mouth was dry and rubbed his eyes and woke up from the bedroom. He walked through the main hall in a daze and walked to the study. He saw Shen Rui holding up his pen and writing something.

"Everyone is gone?" Shen Jue said embarrassedly: "How did I fall asleep?"

Shen Rui put down his pen and snorted, "Who insisted on eating a few more cups of wine, can't stop him?"

Shen Jue smirked and said, "Didn't that boy Shou's proud boy? It's like he can eat wine. It's like someone else has never eaten wine. He is really not good enough. It's our cousin, but he is with Shou and I'm in the same place..."

Shen Rui shook his head and said, "No matter what the reason is, you should consider it yourself. You should know that you can stop. Fortunately, I was drunk and just sleep honestly. If you start drinking like someone else, you will be embarrassed and go out in the future. Don't be allowed to drink at other people's houses."

There was a kettle on the desk. Shen Jue poured half a cup of tea for himself, drank it all in one go, and said with a smile: "Isn't this in front of my second brother? I just drank happily. If I were one of them myself, I wouldn't drink it like this."

Shen Rui looked at Chen Jue and frowned slightly.

Just now, no one noticed it at the table, but Shen Rui saw it clearly. Chen Jue deliberately attracted Shou Ge and He Tai to fight for wine.

He wants to get drunk.

Some things can only be understood by Chen Jue himself.

Shen Rui sighed in his heart and said, "Come back and change your clothes, this stinking body of wine can kill people.

Chen Jue raised his arm, lowered his head and smelled it, but he couldn't stand it. He hurriedly said, "Then I'll go back first." After that, he left hurriedly.

Shen Rui could guess Chen Jue’s thoughts, which were nothing more than missing my life’s relatives.

In the past two years, Shen Rui has adapted to his heir and regards Chen Cang and Xu as a relative. He has no longing for the fourth wife's birth.

It’s not that he holds grudges, but only remembers the unkindness of Zhang Lao'an and Chen Juren, but forgets the kindness of giving birth to him; it’s that he has his own understanding, and after coming to the Ming Dynasty, he has a limited time to spend with his family members in the four rooms, so he can’t really have any feelings.

Chen Jue is different. His parents are both here. Even if the eldest wife of the Zongfang family is partial, she is still her own mother, not a stepmother; her father and grandfather regard him as a favorite of her, including grandparents and grandchildren, and father-son.

The Chenzhou and Qiao couple have been nervous for the past two years, and they can't tell the matter between the couple, so it's not surprising that Chen Jue's negligence is not surprising.

Whether it is his longing for Songe Bensheng's relatives or the polite and distantness of the Shenji family in Beijing to Chen Jue, Chen Jue feels pain.

Chen Jue also needs to have a cognition about the relationship between his blood relatives and his descendants, which is the price of growth.

At dusk, snowflakes began to float in the sky.

Chen Cang came back from the yamen.

"I hope this snow will fall more heavily and relieve the drought next spring." Chen Cang took off his official uniform and told Xu.

Northern Zhili has been drought for nine years, and the imperial court prays for rain every spring. Although Chen Cang is now the main hall of the Ministry of Justice, he has been in the Ministry of Revenue for many years and cannot help but pay attention to farming and people's livelihood.

"It's not yet the twelfth lunar month. Judging from the years in previous years, there was less snow before the twelfth lunar month, and there were a few heavy snowfalls in the twelfth lunar month..." Xu said.

After Chen Cang changed his clothes and cleaned his hands, the couple sat opposite each other.

Chen Cang held the teacup and looked up at his wife and said, "Madam is restless, what is this?"

Xu sent his maid out and whispered: "Master, the third uncle recognized Brother Rui's new friend, Shouge, today, as the little nobleman in the palace."

Chen Cang was lowering his head to eat tea, but he almost choked when he heard this and coughed several times.

Xu quickly stood up, picked up the teacup in Chen Cang's hand, put it in one place, and patted her husband's back.

Chen Cang coughed a few more times, and Fang Shu coughed.

His brows frowned, and there was a deep Sichuan character pattern in his eyebrows.

"Didn't the eldest brother of the Yang family be a guest of honor today? How did he react?" Chen Cang thought for a while and asked.

Xu said: "I asked my third uncle, and the third uncle said that the children were happy and they couldn't see any concerns about the superiority and inferiority.

"Madam, don't you tell me about my second brother." Chen Cang's tone was affirmative.

Shen Rui acted like an adult or a child. Such a thing could be revealed directly, and he would not be scared.

Xu nodded and said, "I originally wanted to tell him directly, but later I thought I would wait for the master to come back before talking about it. This is not a trivial matter. The master always asks me to make an idea first and then teach me how to deal with it."

Chen Cang said without thinking, "My second brother will take the career of officialdom in the future, and his reputation is most important. The suspicion of the slander is not affected by the suspicion of the slander... I would rather he be down-to-earth than he will take the shortcut in Zhongnan but leave a verbal handle."

Xu frowned and said, "How come I don't know the great relationship? But seeing that Brother Rui finally got two playmates, I was afraid of hurting the child's heart... Children as old as others are naughty, but Brother Rui is so sensible that it is painful to meet a few like-minded partners, showing some innocence. If there is another change, he will become a wooden man again."

Chen Cang shook his head and said, "Although the lady is kind, she doesn't care about it now. Don't say what others will think when the matter is spread, even the Supreme Lord in the palace is not allowed to be staring at our husband and wife's response."

Everyone knows the benefits of getting close to the Eastern Palace, but how many people dare to come to the Eastern Palace privately? Not to mention the emperor and the queen stare at it, even the jealousy of court officials is not something that ordinary people can deal with.

Now it seems that Shen Rui’s interaction with Xiao Guiren seems to be a secret and is not well known; but in fact, as long as there is a factory guard, how can this be kept secret?

The emperor knew it, it was not a secret in the palace; it was not a secret in the palace, it was not far from being transmitted outside.

Thinking of this, Chen Cang couldn't sit still.

He stood up and said, "Although I am the main hall of the Ministry of Justice, it is not easy to meet you except for the court meeting. This matter cannot be written into the memorial. I'd better go to the Yang family and see what Yang Jiefu said..."

The room was already dark, and it was time to light the lights, but Xu was not talking too much. He immediately ordered someone to prepare a carriage, and then took out a big sweater to change it to Chen Cang.

If it is not so urgent, how can the Shen family show the fear of the nobles falling down and leaving their ministers?

Yang family, study room.

When Yang Tinghe Luoya came back, he was blocked by his son and asked to speak in the study.

"What's so impatient?" Yang Tinghe said unhesitantly.

This son is filial and quick-witted, because sometimes he acts too rigidly, and he is not as cunning as he is. The reason why he suppresses his eldest son and does not allow him to take the provincial examination early is that he wants to train him for a few more years.

Otherwise, no matter how good Yang Shencai was in his studies, he would not dare to let others go to the officialdom with such a temper.

Yang Shen looked solemn and said with a long sigh: "Dad, today's Shen family banquet, Shou Ge is also a guest.

"Brother Shou? Which Brother Shou?" Yang Tinghe asked, then he realized that he stood up and stood up: "What, Brother Shou?"

Yang Shen nodded like pounding garlic and nodded, "Well, it's not the first time Brother Shou has gone back to the Shen family. He went there once in the first half of the year and looked at them. He has been in contact with each other and has a lot of friendship."

"How could it be?" Yang Tinghe said in surprise: "How did they know each other? Didn't Shen Rui study behind closed doors before entering the school in the house?"

Today at the Shen family, although Yang Shen did not dare to mention Shou Ge's identity to Shen Rui, he also asked about the origin of the two indirectly.

Yang Shen said: "The two did not know each other directly. It was Shen Rui who helped a young man during the county trial. Later, he was invited to visit the house and met Brother Shou. The boy was named Gao Wenhu, a child of an ordinary family. He was only thirteen years old and had a good relationship with Brother Shou. He had a good relationship..." Speaking of this, he paused and said: "Looking at Brother Shou and everyone, his friendship with Gao Wenhu seems to be ranked first. He is the second son of He Xueshi's family, He Tai, and then Shen Rui... He has no friendship with others..."

Yang Tinghe looked heavy and said, "What's Shen Rui's reaction? Look at him, he looks like he knows Brother Shou's identity?"

Yang Shen shook his head and said, "I don't know. Seeing that Brother Rui really values ​​Gao Wenhu, he never took the initiative to get close to Brother Shou's friends. However, when Brother Shou and He Taizhi and Chen Jue got together, Shen Rui had no intention of stopping him."

Yang Tinghe heard this and said curiously: "Who is this Gao Wenhu? Why are Shou Ge and Shen Rui valued him instead?"

Yang Shen raised his arms and measured Gao Wenhu's height: "It looks half a head taller than an ordinary adult, so tall, and has a tall figure. However, he is simple and simple in dealing with others, which makes people feel undesirable. Not to mention Brother Shou and Shen Rui, even his son thinks Wenhu is quite friendly."

Although Yang Tinghe did not see Gao Wenhu, he could understand his strengths when he heard his son's description.

Although Shou Ge is young, there are no real children in the palace, and he doesn't have much thought. Shen Rui is so old that it's hard to see through at a glance.

They all value Gao Wenhu, most of the reason why Gao Wenhu is careless.

Smart people are not very cautious, Gao Wenhu has no intention of making them worry about dating.

From this point of view, Shou Ge and Shen Rui's behaviors are somewhat similar. I just don't know if these two people are mutually exclusive or are they attracted to each other?

But the white dragon fish suit is not a good thing.

Yang Tinghe browsed and thought about how to advise on this matter. Since he knew it, it would not work to pretend to be confused, but he should also think of a proper way to prevent the East Palace from getting tired of it.

The father and son were talking when they saw the butler come in and report, "Master, the master of the Shen family is here..."

Yang Tinghe was stunned at first, then said to Yang Shen: "Follow me to welcome Mr. Shen."
