The queen was dissatisfied and said: "Where are you going? Today, Xiao Xian accompanied Shen Mingzhu to the Shen Mansion and returned home. Shen Can and Shen Mingtang also took leave at home and did not come to the Yamen for duty."
She also knew that Shen Can had been squeezed out and nothing would happen when he came. Yan Ge always controlled the cabinet, not to mention Shen Mingtang.
But knowing is one thing, but doing it is another. Even if she knows that someone is being excluded by her father, she will still feel uncomfortable if she doesn't want to come.
In her mind, Shen Can and Shen Mingtang should be thinking hard to gain a foothold in the cabinet, want to compete with Yan Ge Lao, and may even want to take advantage of Xiao Xian's opportunity to kill their father. She was about to step down, so she was always very nervous and asked her father to be careful.
It's a pity that Shen Can didn't have any intention at all. Not only did he not want to squeeze out Mr. Yan Ge, he didn't even want his own position. He took leave to receive his daughter and son-in-law at home.
But it made sense for Xiao Che to leave. Those who came to congratulate Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu had already begun to leave one after another.
Many people are puzzled. They feel that they came a long way and walked for months. They finally got here, only to leave in ten days. The journey back took another month and cost a lot of money. Is it worth it?
But those who came to attend the wedding thought it was worth it, after all, it was only once in a lifetime!
It is impossible for King Yan and Princess to get married for the second time, so it is just this once in a lifetime. If you don’t participate, you will be at a huge loss.
So even if you risk your life to come, after seeing that grand scene, you will have no regrets in this life.
The eyes and ears in the palace reported everything about the Shen Mansion in detail, but what they could report was only what Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu wanted them to know. They would not know anything about what Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu were not willing to let them know. .
Therefore, the so-called surveillance in the palace only knows the superficial things about Shen's house, which everyone knows.
It was also a big event for the princess and the prince to return to the Shen Mansion. The people nearby also came to join in the fun and watch the ceremony in front of the mansion. It was still very lively.
Although it was not as grand as the wedding day, there were many people crowded in front of the door and it was very lively.
When Shen Mingzhu returned home, the banquet was held in the hall of the main courtyard, not Cuizhuyuan. Shen Can was very happy to see her daughter and son-in-law loving and harmonious, so she drank a few more drinks and asked Shen Mingtang and Pei Jing to accompany her. Have a few more drinks with the prince.
Shen Mingtang also invited Feng Mingdi. After the banquet, he left first because he had something to do, saying that he was going to the capital for a stroll. Others went to the garden for a walk in groups and drank tea. Everyone was happy and not at all nervous. and worry.
Shen Mingzhu and others were drinking tea in the pavilion, and Aunt He came over and said softly: "Auntie, I want to discuss something with you."
Shen Mingzhu vaguely guessed something and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll be there in a moment."
She said hello to Xiao Xian and asked him to talk to Shen Mingtang and Pei Jing. She went to Shen Can's study without taking the girl with her.
He drank a little too much and stared in the study for a while. Now that he was more awake, he remembered the problem he had been worrying about and asked Aunt He to call Shen Mingzhu.
Shen Mingzhu entered the study. In the afternoon, there was a faint mixed smell of ink and flowers, which was very strange and nice.
