After traveling through time, I became Han Zhang’s grandson?
Chapter 41: Planning
"That's too much. This is such a blatant murder and heart-breaking move. Do you still want to marry the eldest daughter of the Yu family?" Gu Tingye and Han Ming rode back on horseback.
"I'm a petty person, and I usually take revenge on the spot if I have a grudge."
Han Ming didn't care about anything else. Since Yu Yanhong dared to humiliate Yanran in public, she had to bear the revenge.
"I didn't slap her on the spot, which was considered giving face to Old Master Yu."
Han Ming's words made Gu Tingye smile helplessly: "You, you haven't even married yet, and you're already so protective of me."
Han Ming blinked and looked at Gu Tingye strangely. He really wanted to say, this is nothing compared to you. You have been scheming from before marriage to after marriage.
Anyone who dares to touch Sheng Minglan will be treated as if his life is in vain. How dare you say that to me?
He gave Gu Tingye a blank look, rode his horse back to the rest area, and landed gracefully, causing many girls in the boudoir to exclaim in surprise.
"Do you have anything else to do tonight?" Gu Tingye also dismounted handsomely, but unfortunately no one cheered. After all, Old Gu had a really bad reputation.
"Forget about drinking, I still need to take a look at Zecheng at the Hanlin Academy."
Han Ming's words made the Sheng family's ears move, as if they heard the names of their own family members.
"Didn't you arrange it?" Gu Tingye was puzzled.
"If that's the case, the censors will report me tomorrow." Han Ming took the shoulder strap neatly and handed it to Yong Zeng.
He nodded slightly to Yu Yanran and Sheng Minglan, and without much conversation, was about to leave.
As a result, Gu Tingye's shout made Han Ming's legs tremble.
"Wei Xingshou and Yunniang miss you so much, why don't you go and see them?"
This also made many people stand there in shock. Sheng Changfeng directly said: "Brother Han, I testify that what Brother Gu said is correct."
Han Ming turned around and looked at Gu Tingye and Sheng Changfeng with a gloomy expression: "Get out!"
Seeing Han Ming leaving angrily with a flick of his sleeves, the Princess Jiacheng in the stands stared at him with wide eyes.
“Interesting, very interesting…”
The maid asked in confusion, "The county lady wants to play polo?"
"No, I'm not talking about the ball, I'm talking about the person."
It seemed that at this moment Han Mingcai was a bit like a mortal, not like the banished immortal from heaven, who made people dare not approach him easily.
"Ha ha ha ha..."
"Ha ha ha ha..."
Gu Tingye and Sheng Changfeng smiled maliciously.
Yu Yanran stood there a little confused, thinking about the relationship between her brother Jingyuan and people like Wei Xingshou and Yunniang.
Sheng Minglan looked helplessly at Second Uncle Gu and Third Brother. These two... did a great job! Let Han Ming find me to take the blame again!
Blackbelly Orchid is officially online!
The polo field returned to calm again, and a new round of polo matches began again, but many people's minds were distracted with Han Ming's departure.
I felt that the polo match afterwards was extremely boring and lost its passion.
Han Ming, who left first, was thinking about his plan in the carriage and constantly improving the details.
Yong Zeng, who was standing by, took out a small notebook from his pocket and kept recording something.
"Yong Zeng."
"Yes, brother." Yong Zeng looked up at Han Ming.
"After you return, send a visiting card to the Sheng family for me, and give it directly to Lord Sheng."
"Okay, brother, shall we start?" Yong Zeng said excitedly with his eyes wide open.
"Hehe..." Han Ming's lips curled up into an imperceptible smirk.
. . . . . .
On the afternoon after the polo match, Han Ming went to the Sheng family, accompanied by Sheng Changbai, who looked bitter and resentful.
In the end, Han Ming was reluctant to tire him out, so he chose to work together in the Hanlin Academy.
After finishing the job, Sheng Changbai was not allowed to refuse and went straight to Sheng's house for a meal.
"Tell me, you are the eldest grandson of the prime minister's family. Why do you come to my small Sheng family to make a living?" Sheng Changbai reluctantly welcomed Han Ming into the study.
"Didn't I sneak out to play polo this morning..." Han Ming yawned and rubbed his swollen temples with his hands.
"Well, I won't cover for you anymore." Sheng Changbai and Han Ming rubbed their heads at the same time.
"Then I didn't team up with Yanran, and fought with your sixth sister."
Han Ming felt a headache and wondered if he should take a sick leave and stay at home for a few days to rest.
"Well, playing basketball on a team with Sixth Sister..." Sheng Changbai didn't think too much about it and answered casually.
Then, as if suddenly realizing something, his eyes widened: "What did you say?"
"I'm saying, I played a game of ball with your sixth sister today, and I'm worried someone might spread rumors and give your sixth sister a reputation for having an affair with someone else."
Han Ming ignored Sheng Changbai's surprise and told him about his idea of coming to eat for free.
"So you want to meet my father and explain it to him face to face?" Sheng Changbai felt that Han Ming was making a big deal out of nothing.
"Hmm." Han Ming picked up the tea beside him and took a sip. An instant sense of comfort spread throughout his body.
"Do you need me to accompany you?" Sheng Changbai looked at Han Ming carefully. He always felt that this guy had some bad intentions.
"No, I'll just talk to Master Sheng alone. Some things are better left undisclosed."
Han Ming had a mysterious smile on his face, which made Sheng Changbai feel a chill running from his tailbone to the top of his head.
This is definitely an expression that means someone will get into trouble. Every time Han Jingyuan shows this kind of smile, someone is bound to be in trouble.
. . . . . .
In Sheng Hong's study, Han Ming bowed respectfully to Sheng Hong and then sat aside.
Sheng Hong looked at Han Ming with a smile and nodded, saying, "Since the palace examination, Mr. Han has been running back and forth between the Hanlin Academy and the Imperial Palace. How come he has time to come to the Sheng family today?
"Today I have come to thank the Sixth Miss of the Sheng Family for her sincere gratitude."
Han Ming crossed his hands and saluted deeply. His movements were so standard and serious that Sheng Hong's eyelids jumped, because he had seen such a great salute in the court before.
Following the grand ceremony, there will inevitably be a wave of angry scolding of officials, slamming down the stairs, and blood splattering five steps away.
Sheng Hong's hand trembled slightly under his sleeve, and then a forced smile appeared on his face.
"Why do you have to do this, Mr. Han? I can't afford such a generous gift. I wonder what my son Ming'er has done?" He said as he helped Han Ming up.
Han Ming smiled brightly, "Master Sheng, you may not know that today, Madam Wu of Yongchang Marquis's Mansion is holding a party on the polo field..."
Han Ming recounted everything that happened in the morning. At first, Sheng Hong was surprised to hear that Minglan had such good polo skills. Then he was a little angry when he heard that Changfeng, the third brother of the Sheng family, gave up without caring about the situation.
When he heard that Minglan and Han Ming were teaming up to play polo, he felt a little dissatisfied. Until he heard that the eldest daughter of the Yu family was actually Han Ming's wife-to-be, he began to praise Minglan with some emotion.
"I didn't expect there would be so many twists and turns in this. Ming'er did a great job. Whether it's from the perspective of a girl's affection or the relationship with the Yu family, this is worthy of praise."
Sheng Hong stroked a strand of beard on his chin and smiled, looking very proud.
"That's why I made a special trip to the Sheng Mansion to express my gratitude. Later, I will have Yong Zeng send some thank-you gifts."
Han Ming clasped his fists and bowed again to express his gratitude.
"Oh, Mr. Han, please don't do this. This matter is nothing. There is no need to bother with so much trouble."
Sheng Hong laughed heartily. He loved fame the most. If this matter were to be made known to others in the future, his Sheng family would still be known as a family that raised daughters well and was loyal and righteous. Wouldn't that be a good thing?
"It's not a big gift, but it's a token of my appreciation. I hope Uncle Sheng will accept it."
Han Ming actually called him that, and Sheng Hong felt even more flattered. There were not many people in the whole of Bianjing who could be called uncle by Han Jingyuan. His own Minglan really made him proud.
"Oh, you're welcome. I understand Jingyuan's intentions, but I never thought that your family would marry into the family of the old Grand Tutor."
Sheng Hong sighed a little, and at the same time, he made a side comment with a hint of gossip.
"I have been engaged to the eldest daughter of the Yu family since childhood, but it was arranged when Madam Fan was still alive. Now she is gone, and my stepmother doesn't care at all."
"When Lord Yu's family was exiled, life was difficult. The dowry that Madam Fan had left for Miss Yu was secretly resold, making their life even more difficult."
"I wanted to wait for the Yu family to return to Beijing and then go to their house to propose marriage, but they kept blocking me. I can only wait patiently."
"So, the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children is really hard to say. The eldest daughter of the Yu family, a legitimate daughter, lives like a concubine's daughter. Ugh!"
Han Ming pretended to sigh helplessly and drank his tea, but he couldn't stop smiling in his eyes.
What he said was partly true and partly false. He did not lie about Yu Yanran and his deceased mother, but when it came to the marriage contract and the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children, Han Ming was talking nonsense.
Sheng Hong was not born of a legitimate wife, so he was very sensitive to the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children. In the Sheng family, no one was allowed to talk nonsense about legitimate and illegitimate children.
But facing Han Ming's words, Sheng Hong had no way to refute it. He even brought his own childhood into Miss Yu's perspective, and felt a little sorry for the child.
"What a pity..." Sheng Hong sighed.
"Master Sheng, there is no need to feel sentimental. Even if the road ahead is a den of tigers and wolves, I will definitely move forward and seek the beautiful woman! I will not let down the Tathagata and you."
Han Ming quoted a famous quote from his previous life, which shocked Sheng Hong.
Because this sentence well reflects the reason why he insisted on taking Lin Qinshuang into the mansion as a concubine.
This sincerity and unwavering love made Sheng Hong see his younger self.
I can't help but feel a sense of mutual admiration for Han Ming. The love between Han Ming and Yu Yanran is a reflection of what happened between me and Shuang'er.
"Don't worry, Jingyuan. I believe that with your sincerity, your wish will come true."
Sheng Hong was so moved at this moment that Han Ming felt a little sweaty on his back. Was this a bit too much?
"Thanks for your good wishes, Uncle Sheng." Han Ming grinned.
No matter what, the first step of the plan has been accomplished!
