Detective in the Red Chamber

Sun Shaozong thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure it out. He subconsciously picked up the teacup and took a sip, but suddenly his mind lit up: water? !

Prince Teng of the southeast?

Right now, the threat to the southeast sea has weakened a lot. If a part of the navy is transferred to the north along the coast, it can deter North Korea from top to bottom;

However, whether this speculation is correct or not, it is not easy to ask Xu Furen to verify it. I am afraid that we can only see the changes in the future situation.

After that, Sun Shaozong briefly discussed with Xu Furen the route of the mission and the basic attitude towards the Jurchens.

In fact, it is simple to put it bluntly, one sings a bad face and the other sings a red face.

And don't think too much, Sun Shaozong, as the deputy envoy, must be responsible for putting on a tough stance, otherwise why did the court insist on picking a military commander as the deputy envoy?

Chapter 934

That night.

Wang Xifeng was lazily lying on the bed, with one leg curled up and the other arched. At first glance, it looked rather indecent, but upon closer inspection, it was full of charm.

Physical injury was not the main reason for her leaving Sun's house, but after going through the bumps all the way, the annoying hot pain made her feel a little lucky that she did not stay in Sun's house and continued to press on Sun Shaozong' Reluctant'.

Because it was really bad, so after returning to Rongguo Mansion, Wang Xifeng lied that she caught the cold at Sun's house, and spent most of the day in bed.

However, although the body is free, the mind has been restless—who carelessly deal with the waves of people who come to visit the sick?

So it was not until nightfall that the room was finally quiet.

Unexpectedly, Wang Xifeng seemed uncomfortable again.

Although Sun Jia Erlang is really a cunning and hateful beast, but when he is by his side, how can the sense of fulfillment and security be compared to being alone and looking at the window?

I don't know what deal he can come up with.

If you dare to evade and perfunctory again, then you will... just...

Thinking about it carefully, Wang Xifeng realized that he didn't have many ways to check and balance Sun Shaozong except for "to die together".

After all, once this kind of thing spreads, it will be the result of the destruction of jade and stone.

And Jia Lian, the only one who could mediate in the middle, didn't take himself seriously at all - if he knew that he had lost his virginity to Sun Er, he might be happy to see it happen.

Speaking of the word 'cheng'...

Subconsciously, Wang Xifeng placed the catkin on her lower abdomen, and rubbed it lightly. If she really succeeded, she might not be able to hide it from Jia Lian.

It's just that although she is not afraid that Jia Lian will be annoyed by this, she is afraid that Jia Lian will climb up the ladder without skin and face.

Serving on the same bed with my sister-in-law is already embarrassing enough, Wang Xifeng doesn't want to bring her husband with her...

Hey~

At that time, this matter should have been handed over to Sun Er.

Just as he was thinking about going into a fantasy world, he suddenly heard a few maids outside laughing and making a fuss.

After all, Wang Xifeng had ghosts in her heart and was very sensitive to the movements around her, so she quickly restrained her thoughts and listened carefully.

After a while, she breathed a sigh of relief, but a sour feeling surged up uncontrollably.

But it turned out that the maids outside were teasing Ping'er who was about to 'marry'.

Thinking that in a few days, Ping'er will be able to justify his name and transfer to Sun Er's family, Wang Xifeng didn't have to feel jealous.

Just as they were about to raise their voices to disperse them all, so as not to be disturbed by listening, someone suddenly reported outside: "Grandma, the concubine is here."

In the Sun family, this title refers to Ruan Rong; in the Rongguo Mansion, it is the nickname for Aunt Xue.

Wang Xifeng was taken aback when he heard the words, and blurted out, "Why is aunt here? Didn't Wenlong take her to Zijin Street a few days ago?"

"Didn't you just go back to your house, and I just heard that you were sick."

It was just a response from the outside, but it was replaced by Aunt Xue's soft voice.

Wang Xifeng was taken aback, and hastily put her legs together, gritted her teeth and frowned, endured the pain, took off the inlaid jade forehead from the head of the bed, and hooped it crookedly on her head.

After tidying up in a hurry, Aunt Xue had already opened the door and walked in.

Seeing that Wang Xifeng's face was distorted, she was startled, covered her mouth and said, "What's going on? Didn't you say that you suffered from the wind and cold, why did you feel so uncomfortable?"

Wang Xifeng tried her best to suppress what was wrong with her body, forced a smile and said: "It is true that I heard that my aunt is coming, and when I wanted to get up to greet her, I accidentally bumped my head."

As he said that, he kneaded a lot at the top.

Only then did Aunt Xue feel relieved, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, she pushed her body back onto the bed, and said with half reproach and half concern: "You child! Since you are already sick, why are you polite to Auntie? Have you ever consulted a doctor? What medicine did you take?"

"I've already seen the doctor at Sun's house, and he said there's nothing serious about it, I just prescribed a few doses of common decoction..."

Wang Xifeng didn't know how much she had to deal with similar scenes today, so while enduring the pain, she answered fluently without revealing any flaws.

But Aunt Xue saw that she was in good spirits and didn't look sick, so she felt relieved, but then she hesitated to speak.

When Wang Xifeng saw this, she immediately understood that she was coming this time, and she was afraid that she had other things to say besides visiting a doctor.

So he wrapped his arms around Aunt Xue's waist, and said with a coquettish smile: "Auntie just said that we don't need to be courteous, and it took only a blink of an eye, how can we be restrained?"

Seeing her struggling to stand up again, Aunt Xue simply curled her legs up behind his head, combed the broken hair on her forehead, and sighed: "I have something in my heart, and I still can't make up my mind." , After thinking about it, I'm afraid I can only ask you to refer to it."

Wang Xifeng leaned on her lap, and through several layers of clothes, she could still feel the soft and elastic touch. In addition, the white hand in front of her was not inferior to Erba Shaoai in terms of fineness and smoothness. I feel a little sigh.

How unfair is this world for a beautiful woman like my aunt who can only stand alone for more than ten years, letting her years pass away and her youth disappear?

Hearing that she was full of helplessness, and feeling pity in her heart, she couldn't help feeling a little complacent - although she and her grandson were not on the right track, they were better than the loneliness of my aunt in the past ten years.

With such thoughts in my heart, I naturally ironed it out a bit when I spoke: "We are the two of you here, what's on Auntie's mind, but it's okay--even if I can't come up with an idea, I will never spread it to the outside world. .”

Only then did Aunt Xue stammer: "Actually, it's nothing. It's just about Baochai and Baoyu. You also met a few days ago. Baoyu..."

Speaking of it, it was the sequelae caused by the Qiuwen incident.

Jia Baoyu managed to save Qiuwen's life by spoiling himself, but in Aunt Xue's opinion, this was a big minus.

After her daughter refused to marry Sun Shaozong, she used to talk about her concubine and concubine, but Jia Baoyu almost lost her life just because of a maid. Wouldn't it be a hundred times more troublesome than Sun Erlang's family in the future?

So in the past few days on Zijin Street, she couldn't help it, recalling that Sun Shaozong was in bed that day, and half-jokingly recommended herself.

Although……

With the current relationship between the two, it would be a bit embarrassing if they really married their daughter.

But just as Sun Shaozong said, with this relationship, he...he will always treat his daughter differently.

After all.

She came to ask Wang Xifeng for advice, but she hoped that the other party would express her support so that she could cross the threshold in her heart with firm belief.

Of course, words will certainly not be so straightforward.

"I think that Lin girl is also pitiful, and Tong Baoyu has a deep-seated love. If this entanglement continues, I really don't know how to get rid of it..."

"Although that Erlang of the Sun family is not as caring as Baoyu, he is also a family friend with us, not to mention his character and ability..."

"I tried it once, but he already had a concubine and a concubine in his family, and that girl Baochai is not willing to fight with others..."

If you don't want to fight with others, how can you hold on to Baoyu?

Wang Xifeng curled her lips secretly, but after careful consideration for the Xue family, she felt that this marriage was really interesting.

In terms of identity and background, although Sun Er is not comparable to Jia Baoyu, the uncle of Zhunguo, but in terms of talent, he is several blocks ahead of Baoyu, and his future prospects are even more limitless.

As for spoiling concubines and concubines...

The second grandson is not very comparable, and the three or five wives and concubines are all exposed to rain and dew, so it is not a big problem.

As long as Xue Baochai can give birth to a son-in-law as soon as possible after marrying into the Sun's family - it's better to have more children - why do you need to care about these?

And Sun Er's ability to sow seeds is beyond doubt.

After a brief calculation in her heart, Wang Xifeng finally said: "Speaking of which, this is indeed a good marriage, but it still depends on Baochai's mind - after all, this girl has always had a strong heart."

"Besides, the second lady has to discuss it first, so as not to cause trouble..."

Hearing this, Aunt Xue hurriedly interjected: "I went to inquire last time, that's what my sister meant!"

"Is there such a thing?"

When Wang Xifeng heard the words, his heart moved, and he immediately understood that Mrs. Wang probably had the idea of ​​climbing high again.

In this way, this marriage is considered cheap for both parties.

Immediately Wang Xifeng nodded and said: "Since that's the case, then Auntie might as well calm down for a while, and let me recover from my illness, and then go to see how both of you are thinking."

As he said that, he felt a little guilty for no reason, so he added with a smile: "If my aunt is worried, why not go to Sun's house with me, and see with my own eyes, what are the concubines of the Erlang of the Sun family? Character, talent and appearance."

Chapter 935

November 23 at noon.

The Crown Princess hid behind the Moon Gate, looking from a distance, and saw her father, with a happy face, shuttling between the wine tables, followed by Sun Shaozong and Sun Zhaolin, one on the left and one on the right.

Of course, under the background of Sun Shaozong, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Sun Zhaolin's sense of existence has been weakened to the limit - after a whole circle, he only got two sentences "a tiger father has no dogs".

On the contrary, there are as many people who want to figure out the relationship between Sun Shaozong and Sun Tao, inside and outside the words.

in fact……

According to the current customs, it should be my husband-in-law who accompanied my father to toast at this time.

As far as the status of the prince is concerned, if he doesn't take the initiative to mention it, who would dare to work on his master?

Thinking of this, the Crown Princess felt a little melancholy inexplicably, and subconsciously stared at Sun Shaozong for a few more times. She didn't know how many thoughts turned in her mind, but finally she just whispered: "Go and call Zhaolin to the flower hall. Said that I have something to ask him."

…………

Sun Zhaolin's face was blushing because he and Sun Shaozong held back a few glasses of wine for his father, and he talked a lot more than usual.

When the maid found him, he was pestering Sun Shaozong, asking about the details of Lin Qicheng's case. Hearing that his sister had an invitation, he didn't dare to neglect him, and hurriedly followed the maid to the flower hall on the west side.

When the cold wind blows on the road, the feeling of alcohol surges up even more.

When he arrived in the flower hall, he shook his head dizzily, and couldn't even understand what his sister said.

In the end, it was the female officer Zou Qingyun who served him a cup of hangover soup, helped him to sit down and rested for a while, and then regained his strength.

It's just that after he woke up, he recalled the few words of his sister just now, but he couldn't help being horrified in his heart!

So he repelled the left and right, and said anxiously: "Sister, you just said that His Royal Highness wants to have a secret talk with Shao Zong's second brother at our residence?!"

As he said that, he trembled all over, and said tremblingly: "Could it be...Could it be that he wants to take a desperate...take a risk?!"

He mistakenly thought that the prince wanted to use his own family to plot a rebellion.

"Where did you want to go?!"

The concubine couldn't laugh or cry, if he hadn't seen that he had reached the age to talk about marriage, she wouldn't have taught him the same thing as when she was a child, I'm afraid she would have slapped him on the forehead long ago.

"But……"

Although her sister's reaction was obviously different from what she had expected, the doubts in Sun Zhaolin's heart did not weaken much.

He waited for Ai Ai to distinguish: "Second brother Shaozong has always had no taboos when going in and out of the Prince's Mansion, why did he choose to have secret talks in our mansion, and let me restrain the servants from approaching at will--sister, don't you think it's strange? "

Naturally, the crown princess was also full of doubts.

But she was sure that this secret talk was definitely against the five senses - otherwise, the prince would not have specially asked her to accompany him.

But this is not easy to talk about with Sun Zhaolin.

So the princess concubine said perfunctorily: "Don't worry, I will wait next door. Don't say that the prince has no such intentions. Even if he really wanted to, he would never mention it when he knows that the wall has ears."

Only then did Sun Zhaolin feel relieved a little, and asked his sister a few more words, and then went down and ordered someone to arrange a private banquet for the prince to pass on at any time.

After seeing off her younger brother, the princess was alone in the flower hall, but she couldn't help thinking about it.

In her opinion, it is not uncommon for the prince to host a private banquet for Sun Shaozong, but why did he ask her to accompany him?

This is really bad etiquette!

Could it be that……

Has the prince seen through his shameful behavior in private?

But it shouldn't be.

Such a secret matter, even the maids around her don't know about it, let alone the prince who won't see each other for ten days and a half months.
