However, he was naturally serious and cold-blooded. He had been on the throne for several years and had the imperial power in his hands. Even though he deliberately restrained himself, some of his great power was still revealed unconsciously.
Several young men became visibly cautious.
Shen Xu no longer raised his head to peek.
Emperor Qing'an felt a little regretful and said in a gentle voice: "You have entered the palace to be your grandson's companions, and you will live with your grandson in the East Palace from now on. The several masters in the upper study are all great Confucian scholars who teach riding. The martial arts masters who practice martial arts are all masters in the world. If you devote yourself to learning, you will definitely gain something."
All the young people responded in unison.
Emperor Qing'an then asked a few questions about the young men in order of age, including age, preferences and so on. In the end, it was Shen Xu's turn.
"Are you Shen Xu?" Emperor Qing'an's eyes flashed with a smile unconsciously, and his voice became gentler.
Shen Xu straightened his chest: "Yes."
I can't change my natural loud voice even if I want to. With this opening of my mouth, my voice is loud and full of energy.
Emperor Qing'an smiled again: "You have been chosen as your grandson's companion and are leaving the border town. Is your father reluctant to leave you?"
Eunuch Wang saw this and secretly sighed in his heart. Shen You really was in the emperor's heart. It had been almost nine years since he left the capital, and the emperor was still thinking about him like this.
Shen Xu replied: "After receiving the letter from His Highness the Crown Prince that day, my father immediately went home and discussed with my mother. My father was indeed reluctant to let me come to the capital, but he had to listen to my mother. My mother ordered Boss, I am also happy, so my father had no choice but to agree."
Emperor Qing'an laughed dumbly: "So, you are willing to go to the palace as a companion. From now on, you will have to live in the palace for a long time and you will not be able to see your parents all year round."
Shen Xu didn't take it seriously, straightened his back and responded: "A man will leave home and pursue his future one day. You can't cry over such a trivial matter."
Emperor Qing'an was so amused that he burst into laughter.
In the past few months, Emperor Qing'an hadn't laughed as much as he did today.
Seeing Shen Xu being so frank and cute, Zhu Dong also laughed: "That's good. From now on, when you live in the East Palace, you don't have to worry about food, clothing, food and housing. Just study hard and practice martial arts."
Shen Xu responded neatly: "Yes."
No matter how reluctant Emperor Qing'an was to leave, he couldn't keep a few more young people. He turned to the prince and told the prince: "Send them to the study on my behalf, and tell the tutors to teach them well. From now on, I will teach them every ten days." Test their classwork."
The prince hurriedly responded with a yes.
After the group of young men bowed and left, they followed the prince and the prince away.
Emperor Qing'an watched Shen Xu's figure leave, a smile flashing in his eyes. Soon, the smile quietly disappeared again. It was replaced by a touch of sadness.
As soon as Shen You was born, he had "no father and no mother." Even though his second uncle and aunt loved him, they could not replace his parents. Therefore, Shen You gradually developed a cold and taciturn temperament. Shen You worked as a servant by his side for several years. , I have laughed only a handful of times.
Taking a step back, even if he recognized Shen You back then and took Shen You back to Prince Yan's Mansion. With Shen You's embarrassing background, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to grow up in the Shen family...
Shen Xu is completely different from his biological father. He has been loved by his parents since he was a child, and he grew up happily and carefree. He has a frank and straightforward temperament, is optimistic and loves to laugh. All the regrets that Shen You had when he was young were made up for by Shen Xu. .
Who could not love such a young man?
…
At this time, Feng Shaojun and Tongshi Lei Xiaoxue were in the silk and satin shop.
The three sisters-in-law traveled together and came to the most famous silk and satin shop in the capital. They drank tea and chatted leisurely in the private room. Sisters Shen Miao and Shen Hao were already looking at the clothing materials with great interest.
Mrs. Tong laughed softly and said: "My son is growing up day by day and is working outside all day long. It is not easy to meet him. It is better for a girl to be with him all day long."
"When I knew I was pregnant, I just looked forward to giving birth to a daughter. Unfortunately, it was a boy."
Feng Shaojun smiled and took over the conversation: "I like my daughter, and I will have another one in the future."
In this year and month, having many children brings happiness. Regardless of children, the more children, the better.
Among the four sisters-in-law of the Shen family, the eldest sister-in-law in Jiangnan is undoubtedly the most impressive. She has given birth to children one after another over the years, and now she has three sons and one daughter.
In this way, there are ten grandchildren in the Shen family, seven boys and two girls. One of them is far away in Jiangnan, and then there is Shen Miao.
Lei Xiaoxue sighed sadly: "There is also a disadvantage to having a daughter. The older the daughter is, the cuter she is, and the more the brat will miss her."
Feng Shaojun burst into laughter.
Mrs. Tong also covered her mouth and laughed.
Shen Miao is thirteen years old this year and has two years to go before she has haircut.
The Dalang of the Fang family and her childhood sweetheart had already been considered a couple by default. Li wanted to get married as soon as possible, but in the final analysis, it was Dalang who pushed her.
No wonder Fang Dalang felt uneasy. Cui Dalang had already given in silently, but there were quite a few young men in Jiangjunfang who were secretly in love with Shen Miao, and they grabbed a lot of them. Ever since he entered the military camp last year, he had been shamelessly urging Li Mrs. Li really couldn't resist her son's request, so she proposed it to Lei Xiaoxue twice in private.
"What? Are you dissatisfied with Fang Dalang?" Feng Shaojun joked with a smile: "Do you want to choose another uncle?"
Lei Xiaoxue thought for a while and smiled: "I watched Fang Dalang grow up. He is handsome, diligent in martial arts, has a good character, and is very fond of Miao'er. There is nothing wrong with that. I just can't bear to let my daughter get married early. . Even if the marriage is arranged, you will have to stay for two more years before getting married."
When Lei Xiaoxue married Shen Jia, it was an absolute marriage.
Life has been going so smoothly these past few years.
When they arrived at Shen Miao's place, Lei Xiaoxue had no intention of clinging to a high-ranking family... Of course, the Fang family was also a hereditary Jin Yiwei, and their family status was by no means low. Fang Peng's official career had been smooth in recent years, and he was now a fourth-grade military general.
The best thing is that when Shen Miao married Fang Dalang, her husband's family was next door. If she wanted to see her daughter in the future, she could just go there. It couldn't be better.
Lei Xiaoxue just couldn't bear to part with her daughter, so she habitually muttered a few words to Fang Dalang, and then asked Feng Shaojun: "What are your plans for my good son's marriage?"
Feng Shaojun immediately said: "My dear, I'm only eight years old. Let's wait until I get my haircut before we discuss the marriage."
Come on, I have a mouth that specializes in making fun of others, but when it comes to my own daughter, isn’t it the same?
Lei Xiaoxue joked with a smile: "Sanlang and Silang of the Fang family, Sanlang of the Cui family, and the bunch of brats in Jiangjunfang are all looking at the good ones. You have to keep a close eye on the good ones, don't let the brats get away from you. He left early."
Feng Shaojun raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Whoever dares to climb on the wall of my house, I will break his legs."
Lei Xiaoxue: "..."
This is so heartbreaking! That brat Fang Dalang likes to climb the wall and sneak over when he has nothing to do.
Lei Xiaoxue looked distressed and heartbroken, which once again amused Feng Shaojun and Tong.
