"Where is Junjun? Why haven't you seen anyone all day? It's rare to go back to Wuchang. I don't have to deal with government affairs for a few days, so I can accompany you, but I'm still running around."
The second night after Chen Shuren returned to Jiangxia County, when he had dinner, only Chen Yuanyuan and Dong Xiaowan were with him, but Li Xiangjun was nowhere to be seen, which made him a little unhappy.
Of course, it's not because he's anxious. In fact, he's already too busy with the women around him. Occasionally, if one of them is missing, he's still happy to have some free time.
I just feel that I have so many beautiful beauties, but I often fight outside. It takes several months to find time to intensively care for and care for them. It is inevitable that I have left the beauties in the cold, so I have to make up for it when I return to Jiangxia County.
Chen Yuanyuan and Dong Xiaowan couldn't explain why, so Shen Shuren waved his hands and hugged each other: "No wait! I'll give you two a chance!"
Chen Yuanyuan and Dong Xiaowan looked shy, and hurriedly picked up vegetables and cups, nestled on both sides of Shen Shuren, and waited on him to eat.
After three rounds of drinking, and feeling slightly tipsy, a maid from outside came back to report that Miss Li was back.
Of course Chen Shuren would not be angry with his concubine, so he would just let her in.
Li Xiangjun moved his lotus steps lightly, stepped inside, gathered his crotch and bowed down, and softly apologized.
"What's the point of apologizing? Where have you been today? It's too late for you, Miss Yuanyuan, and Miss Wan to thank you." Chen Shuren sat in a carefree manner. After being served by beauties for a long time, his patience with the beauty was inevitably a little slack.
As he got older, his behavior, words and deeds became more and more indulgent.
This also means not treating your own woman as an outsider. We have been an old married couple for several years, so of course we can do it as easily as possible.
Li Xiangjun was about to reply when a young girl came out from behind her and greeted Shen Shuren as well. Shen Shuren rubbed his eyes and then cleared his throat with a light cough, losing the flirtatious and obscene attitude just now.
"Miss Bian? Why do you think of coming here to have a meal today? Sit down quickly, someone comes and add a bowl. By the way, I have received the news that Governor Fang and Miss Fang will arrive in Wuchang tomorrow. You and Miss Fang also
If we are destined, we can take the time to get together when the time comes.
Their family has lived in Wuchang not long ago. Governor Fang was ordered to take office in Sichuan. The military situation is urgent and he will leave soon. I may also lead troops on a patrol to establish a new foothold for the imperial court in Sichuan, at least to Chongqing.
.So, if you want to catch up with Miss Fang, you have to hurry up."
Bian Yujing saw that Shen Shuren had changed from his previous appearance and turned back into a polite and humble gentleman. If it were before, she would have been grateful when she saw that the other party respected her so much. But today she came here with something on her mind.
Seeing this contrast, I just feel a little awkward, even a little bit sad.
Sad for herself.
In front of Sister Yuanyuan and Sister Junjun, Shen Futai never pretended to be pretentious and acted wildly. Maybe this was a scene that only his own people could see.
This sense of sadness should not occur from a moral perspective, but occasional fluctuations in emotions are really beyond the control of reason.
Bian Yujing was distracted for a moment and just stood there pitifully, not answering. After the atmosphere was awkward for a few seconds, Shen Shuren also noticed that something was wrong.
Obviously, the other party's sudden visit at this time today was unlikely because he heard that Fang Ziling was going back to Wuchang.
Bian Yujing bit her lip several times, trying to muster up the courage, but in the end she only dared to say indirectly:
"I heard from Sister Junjun that Mr. Shen is going to marry the little princess of Prince Lu's Mansion, and the slave family also came to congratulate you in advance. Your Excellency is scholarly, far-sighted and extraordinary, and a capable royal woman with a noble stomach is a good match.
It can be said that once the golden wind and jade dew meet, they have defeated countless people in the world. I wonder if my little sister will have the opportunity to ask adults for advice from time to time in the future..."
When Shen Shuren heard this, he suddenly raised his hand to stop the other party with confidence. Bian Yujing's expression darkened and he was a little embarrassed to continue talking.
However, Chen Shuren stood up suddenly, stood tall and tall, and walked towards Bian Yujing domineeringly. At the same time, he pulled out a jade fracture fan inserted in his waist, but did not unfold it, but just turned it in his hand. In the winter,
There is no need to unfold the fan.
"Miss Bian, we have been friends for a year or two. In order to plot against Hou Fangyu and Zuo Liangyu, I tried every means to redeem my sister's life. You were also eager for justice and provided good offices. I have always said that I want to thank you very much.
You later helped me a lot, and your knowledge and knowledge were definitely among the top three among the women I have seen in my life. I originally thought that you were discouraged and just wanted to practice, so I didn’t dare to be bad.
You are pure.
Secondly, I am entangled with the reins of fame and power, and I don’t know how long I can be quiet and at ease throughout the year. I have always felt that I have neglected these confidantes around me, and I feel indebted to them, so I don’t dare to care about women and care for them anymore.
However, if Miss Bian has a worldly heart, she doesn't mind these shortcomings of mine. I would rather invite Miss Bian to talk about the past and the present together in this life, discussing the gains and losses of the world. In the future, I will sing and comment on it, excerpt and compile it, and it will be a family conversation by chance.
"
After Chen Shuren said something, he walked forward slowly for two steps. By the time he finished speaking, he had already arrived in front of Bian Yujing.
Bian Yujing also felt the pressure, her heart was beating harder and faster, her cheeks were filled with clouds, and she looked around. She had already prepared for the worst, and she had to shamefully take the initiative to state her intention, and she was willing to commit herself to serving the broom for the rest of her life.
It's just that I can't say it too directly, so I word it tactfully.
Unexpectedly, Chen Shuren was very sympathetic to her, and everyone was so close to each other. There was a certain atmosphere in which everyone had a similar understanding.
Chen Shuren didn't want a young girl to take the initiative. He knew that Bian Yujing was not just trying to make him rich, but at least he sincerely appreciated his vision. If others respected him, he would naturally save face for them.
Bian Yujing's face turned red. He took a few deep breaths, and his chest heaved violently. Then he bowed down and said: "My little sister admires the wisdom of adults. I am willing to serve you in this life. All I want is to spread paper and grind ink... Red sleeves add fragrance to accompany reading."
Before she finished speaking, Shen Shuren lifted the jade folding fan bone to Bian Yujing's delicate chin, and then slowly stroked it up to her cheek, lifting her pretty face that did not dare to look up.
Then, he domineeringly picked up Bian Yujing by the waist, and with her skirts flying, she returned to the bedside, and domineeringly put Bian Yujing on her lap, and they drank together.
"We are all acquaintances now. From now on, you four should get along well with each other as sisters."
Chen Yuanyuan and Dong Xiaowan were nearby, looking slightly embarrassed for a few seconds, but they immediately recovered and came over to chat and laugh with Bian Yujing. Only Li Xiangjun was truly relieved and smiled happily.
Chen Shuren also knew that in this kind of situation, it was inevitable to give a sweet date to comfort her, even if it was just like Duan Zhengchun did to make the girl happy, it would be good.
So he was also very responsible, letting Bian Yujing sit on his lap, still holding Chen Yuanyuan and Dong Xiaowan in the middle with his left and right arms, and said generously:
"I am also preparing to marry the princess. From now on, the back house must be well behaved. Let's make a gentleman's appointment. After that, I will go to the land of fireworks to look for flowers and willows. At most, I will only go to drink, listen to music, and have official dinners.
.
The most amazing women in the world who are good at playing string instruments, singing, and playing music have all been taken into my residence. Wouldn't it be a shame to look for those vulgar fans to entertain themselves?"
The limitations of the times are here. It is impossible to say that I will not go to entertainment venues to drink and have banquets in my life, otherwise I will not be able to maintain official relationships.
But it can still be done without spending the night with a woman in a romantic place or seeking sexual pleasure.
Shen Shuren is not a very fond of the new and dislikes the old. At most, it can only be said that he likes the new and dislikes the old a little bit. But Qinhuai Eight Beauties have already obtained half of it, so what else can he do to be a monster?
When Chen Yuanyuan and others heard what he said, they completely wiped away the worries in their hearts. They were all surprised and happy, and they even came up to cover their mouths in pity, so that he didn't have to make random promises:
"The slave family knows that the young master is not an impatient person, so why should he make such a promise? There is nothing he can do about it. If it were anyone else, there would be a young and promising young master like him, a high-ranking official, favored by so many beauties, and we would be very satisfied...
…”
Shen Shuren's hand tightened domineeringly, and Chen Yuanyuan and Dong Xiaowanjiao were immediately silenced: "When did I, Shen, stop keeping my word? What I have decided is settled like this!"
"Son..."
…
The girls were touched by his promise, and naturally they couldn't help but feel flattered and affectionate for a while.
Bian Yujing had just broken through this layer of ambiguous window paper and made the relationship between the two parties clear. Of course, Shen Shuren would not be polite. He stayed with Bian Yujing that night and talked heart-to-heart together. Where friendship is entangled, everything will fall into place naturally.
A trip to Wushan together is indispensable.
Bian Yujing was new to human affairs and could not bear to be criticized. Shen Shuren cherished the beauty and cherished the jade. In the end, he did not seek to have all the fun, but was tender and affectionate, and had no words for the whole night.
The next day, Bian Yujing was inconvenienced and could not get up early. Shen Shuren also accompanied her and ordered the maids to bring breakfast and even lunch to the place where they slept.
Bian Yujing struggled to take the tableware to serve the young master to drink porridge, but Shen Shuren snatched it away with his hands. He put her on his lap again domineeringly, took the jade spoon with his own hands, and fed it to Bian Yujing.
Bian Yujing's face turned red, her heart was filled with embarrassment and joy, and she was completely lost in thoughts, just letting herself be manipulated.
I don’t know how long it took, and the two of them were slowly cleaning up, but a maid outside announced that Governor Fang and his family of Sichuan had entered the city and were coming to visit today, and Magistrate Fang (Fang Yizhi) had come to the house in advance to stand in front of them.
After hearing this, Chen Shuren had to get up and ordered the maids to wash and dress Miss Bian properly.
Chen Shuren went out with a slightly pale face, and saw Fang Yizhi already waiting there. Not long after, Fang Kongzhen and Fang Ziling also came to visit, and there were even envoys who came to announce the decree.
Of course, Chenshu people could only make a big gift first and set up incense eucalyptus to receive the order.
Everyone in the house, whoever passes by, will naturally kneel down and wait on both sides of the road. Only the closest servants of the Shen family can wait in the room where the eucalyptus is placed. As for hiding and not seeing anyone,
That is absolutely impossible.
Chen Shuren had no relatives or family in Wuchang, so the four personal concubines around him naturally had to come out to serve him. Anyway, those who announced the decree were all eunuchs, and there were no men, so they were not afraid of being seen.
Chen Yuanyuan, Dong Xiaowan, Li Xiangjun, and Bian Yujing finally knelt on the ground on both sides. The scene was really dazzling. Even though the visitor was a eunuch, they couldn't help but be surprised: This is His Majesty's palace, and there are not so many stunning women.
Bar?
But Bian Yujing and others couldn't help but feel proud of You: The young master is about to be knighted. In the past hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, since Wang Yangming, how can there be any civil servants who have been awarded the title of earl for military merit? It is military generals. Recently,
Li Chengliang is the only one.
"...I hereby grant the title of Krupp, the governor of Huguang, Shen Shuren, and give me the national surname..."
Chen Shuren waited for the eunuch to finish reading, then respectfully accepted the order and thanked him.
——
ps: I'm not good at writing this. There's no other way. People who show up always have to fill in the holes.
However, I promise that this book will only fill in the holes and not dig them in the future regarding women. After Bian Yujing, there will be no more unclear relationships with Qinhuai women, and political marriages are still necessary. Wait until the holes between the little princess and Fang Ziling are filled.
Just finish it.
That's it for today. Although the writing is terrible, at least it has filled in the pitfalls of Bian Yujing, so it has a beginning and an end.
