100 Returning to the Shen Family(1/2)

The boy didn't answer, and walked forward with a calm expression. When he was so neglected, the girl in yellow felt a little embarrassed and couldn't help biting her lip and slowed down.

Another girl in green clothes was afraid that she would be embarrassed, so she quickly took the conversation, "Luoluo, why did you talk about Prince Yu very well? It's better to say less about his gossip. My elder brother travels every day, so where would he pay attention to these things? Don't ask any more."

Ding Luo glanced at the boy in front of him and pouted angrily, "But I'm curious. Prince Yu has never heard of him approaching another woman in the past few years. He happened to run into him today. Brother Qin happened to be back from the Donghui Township Office. Maybe he knows what the inside story is. Ah Dai, aren't you curious about Prince Yu?"

Qin Dai shook his head, "We can't ask about the matter of that high prince, and His Majesty also strictly prohibits others from discussing Prince Yu privately. Have you forgotten?"

"But we are whispering here, no one knows."

"Okay, just bear with it. Today we are here to pick up the elder brother. Don't mention Prince Yu anymore. Let's talk about other things when we go back."

While they were talking, the three of them had already walked to a pavilion. Two carriages were parked outside the pavilion. The coachman and a few maids stood by the carriage and waited.

As the censor, Qin Zhao was a common thing to go out for office work. Knowing that he would come back today, the Qin Dynasty asked Ding Luo to specially go to Yanyu Pavilion three miles outside the city to wait for him.

Qin Zhao suddenly said: "Three miles outside the city are also under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Yin. The fourth sister doesn't have to come to greet me in person."

Qin Dai smiled gently, "Brother went out for a long time to do the job, and my aunt kept chanting all day long. My third brother was busy taking the exam. I have always been a waste of time. When I heard that my elder brother was coming back, I came to welcome my elder brother back home for my elder aunt."

She made sense, and Qin Zhao didn't say anything else, and walked towards the horse she rode.

He came on a horse just now, and he was not responsible for escorting Zheng Jing. After investigating the incident in Donghui Township, he took someone to escort Zheng Jing back to Yong'an, and sent another team of people to secretly send back the collected evidence of the crime. He turned around and went to other townships for inspection.

When he came back this time, he wanted to go directly to the Censorate to report his duties, but the Qin Dynasty stopped him in Yanyu Pavilion and specially prepared a carriage to greet him. His mother had instructions, but he had to ignore him and could only go back to the mansion first.

When the Qin Dynasty saw that Qin Zhao did not take a carriage, he got on the carriage, and said nothing, he got on the carriage with Ding Luo and asked the coachman to set off for a trip.

Ding Luo lifted the curtain, looked at the man riding a horse in front, pursed his lips and said, "Adai, are Brother Qin in a bad mood?"

"I don't know, maybe I'm tired."

Ding Luo put down the curtain of the car, looking a little annoyed, "So that's the case. No wonder I didn't pay much attention to me just now. If I had known that Brother Qin was tired, I would have come back early and wouldn't have seen any Prince Yu."

Qin Dai smiled gently, "If you really want to be so scrupulous, you should scold me first. If I hadn't heard the news from the official road, you wouldn't have been curious to watch it."

Ding Luo looked at Qin Dai with a angrily look, "Adai, you say good things to comfort me again." That's right, her mood also felt much better because of Qin Dai's comfort, and she was not as depressed as before.

Qin Dynasty smiled without saying a word, lifted the curtain and looked outside, the city gate was already close.

As soon as Shen Biyue entered the city, she was going to attack Meng Liu and Meng Qi to find Hou Wu. Before she could give her instructions, Hou Wu appeared himself.

Since he handled the matter in Liji County, he has escorted the dowry all the way back to Yong'an.

On the way, she was waiting for Chen Biyue to send a message back, but unfortunately she seemed to be in the world and had not been in contact for a long time. After returning to Yong'an City, he did not dare to notify Mr. Meng. Even as soon as he entered the city, the old man knew, but as long as he did not contact him, he would not come to him with his pretended reserved temperament, so as not to be scolded in advance.

Fortunately, he finally received a letter from Meng Qi five days ago, so he quickly sent someone to guard the city gate and kept a communication with Meng Qi. When he heard that King Yu had returned to the city, he rushed over immediately.

There were many people at the gate of the city and it was hard to speak. These few people stood straight, and even the soldiers guarding the city looked suspicious from time to time.

They moved to the teahouse and entered a teahouse. They were located in the middle, secluded and quiet.

Before the tea delivery person came, Meng Qi closed the door.

"Hou Wu, where did you take your dowry?" she asked straight in.

Hou Wu glanced at Mo Sheng and said, "The old man has a house in Quchifang southeast of the city. The villain transported all the carriages to the house."

Chen Biyue felt a little relieved. Seeing Hou Wu looking at Mo Sheng secretly, she said, "Her name is Mo Sheng. She is the girl I picked up on the road, my own person."

Since he was his own person, Hou Wu did not ask again.

At this time, the servant who sent tea to knock on the door, interrupted their conversation, and Mo Sheng went to open the door.

The room was silent, with only the crisp sound of tea cups colliding and the elegant fragrance of tea gradually spreading.

Chen Biyue liked the fragrance of tea very much, so she asked the servant, "What kind of tea is this?"

The servant was making tea, his hands and feet were very quick and he didn't delay his speech. "This is a treasure in our teahouse. The pearly white of Tong Jeju can only be picked in March every year. It will disappear after the month, and the yield is very small. This batch of tea was collected last year."

Mo Sheng was curious, "Why is it called Pearl White?"

"After the tea leaves are soaked, the bottom of the leaves will have a pearly white color, which will taste it very much and contain a strong fragrance. Girl, please try it." As he said that, he pushed the brewed tea in front of them.

Chen Biyue took a cup and drank it lightly. She tasted the sweetness for the first time. Her stamina was elegant and rich, and her mouth left a fragrance. She couldn't help but nodded and agreed: "What a good tea. When will you still have tea this year?"

"When I came in late March, there was tea in the building."

She put down the teacup and smiled, "I like this kind of tea very much. Can you please leave a box for me? I will come and pick it up then."

"Yes, yes, but I don't know which house the girl is from." The servant scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed, "Because there are a lot of customers who ask to keep tea at the teahouse, I'm afraid I'll get confused."

Chen Biyue nodded and expressed her understanding, "I am a girl from the Shen family."

"It turns out it's Miss Chen. It's a villain who doesn't recognize Miss Chen. Please forgive me." The servant was shocked and his attitude immediately became respectful. However, there were several girls from the Shen family, and I don't know which one was in front of him.

He looked at the curtains that Chen Biyue was wearing. He didn't have the same horizon. The servant sighed in his heart, which was a pity and left after making tea.

The tea room returned to tranquility. Chen Biyue took off the cover and said to Hou Wu: "What's going on over the Chen house?"

"The little master has disappeared for so long, and even we are in a hurry. What's more, the Shen family, Duke of Wei has sent a large number of people to find the little master's traces, from Fengshuizhou to Yong'an City to find people all the way, but the noise is very small and I dare not make too much trouble. I also sent people to Meng's mansion to hold people accountable."

"Where is the Meng family?"

"The villain didn't dare to tell the old man, but Duke Wei sent someone to the mansion first. He accused the Meng family of ignoring the young master and the dowry and being directly driven out of the mansion by the old man." He did not report it, and he would definitely be cleaned up by the old man when he went back this time, and he would not give up until he was hurt.

Chen Biyue sneered: "Grandfather didn't care about me. He was obviously thinking about the dowry of Ah Niang. He knew that his grandfather hated him so much that he was itchy and even came to him for nothing. He was stupid enough. What happened to my father?"

"Mr. Shen was naturally scolded by Duke Wei, and it was not easy for Mrs. Chen to have sex with him. These days, Mr. Shen has a lot of temper for the sake of his little master."

Gan Ling was angry, this was the news she wanted to hear the most.

"What will my little master do next?"

"I haven't been hiding my return for a long time. You will have someone come over to the carriage later and send someone to the Chen Mansion, and say that I and the dowry will go to the gate of the city to the east."

Hou Wu took Meng Liu and Meng Qi away, and they were no longer suitable to follow her.

Chen Biyue looked at Mo Sheng, "You follow me later, follow my instructions in everything you do, and don't make any decisions."

"Mo Sheng understands."

The two sat for a while before heading to the East City Gate.

The city gate to the east is close to the mountains and forests, and compared with the other three city gates, there are fewer people.

A long convoy was parked next to the East City Gate, and two servants stood next to each carriage, which looked particularly eye-catching.

Seeing Chen Biyue coming, the two servants in the first car immediately said, "I have met the little master."

"Why did Hou Wu send you two here?"

The two servants in front of me were Meng Liu and Meng Qi who had just left.

Meng Liu scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "The guard of Hou led us to see the old man. The old man said we were ugly and the little master looked down on him, so he asked us to follow him again."

Meng Qi glared at him, "You can say such words in front of the little master? You're not going to die!"

Meng Liu said "ah" and regretted it, "Can you say this? The old man didn't give any instructions!"

Chen Biyue found it funny and ignored them.

After waiting at the city gate for a while, the people from the Shen Mansion came hurried over.

There are dozens of domestic slaves in a row. The leader is an energetic old man with a kind appearance and a pair of eyes that are small but contain a sharp look. One glance is enough to make people tremble.

He came solemnly and respectfully to welcome the eldest daughter of the eldest daughter who had been away from the Shen family for nearly nine years.

From a distance, I saw a row of carriages at the city gate. A girl in green wearing a light blue curtain was standing in front of the carriage. She was graceful and beautiful, with a beautiful and dignified posture, and looked quite elegant and charming. There was also a girl in blue and black clothes standing beside her.

The old man stepped forward and looked at her quietly, while laughing charitably, "I am the chief supervisor of the Duke of Wei's mansion. My surname is Feng. Just call my sister-in-law Feng."

Chen Biyue took off the curtain on her head and looked at him quietly, "Uncle Feng, did you send someone to pick me up?"

Bo Feng nodded and smiled, "That's right, my master missed Sister Yue for a long time, so I specially asked the old slave to pick up Sister Yue back."

Meng Liu sneered at the hearing, and really wanted to see the little master, why didn’t he come here in person?

Chen Biyue saluted respectfully, "Yue'er has met Uncle Feng."

"My sister Yue has been running all the way and has been waiting at the city gate for so long. I guess she is tired. Let's go back with the old slave. The masters in the mansion are waiting for Sister Yue."

When he heard that he was going back, Chen Biyue tightened the curtain with both hands, looking nervous, "Uncle Feng, will it be bad to see my elders when I go back like this?"

"The master hasn't seen Sister Yue for a long time. He is very imagining. No matter what kind of clothes Sister Yue wears today, they will be very happy when they see it." Bo Feng did not show any contempt or disgust because of her timid look, but instead smiled at her kindly.

Chen Biyue pursed her lips shyly, "I understand, thank you Uncle Feng."

Bo Feng glanced at the group of people guarding the carriage, "Who are they?"

"They were hired by me to guard the carriage on the way." She pursed her lips, her nose sore, and said softly, "Madam Xuemei suffered a serious injury in order to protect me. I asked the servants of the Shen family to take her back to the house to seek medical treatment. Can Uncle Feng tell me how Madam Xuemei is doing now? Is it still safe?"

"It is also Xuemei's blessing to be able to make Sister Yue worry about her, but she no longer serves the Shen family. Her wife has been serving the Shen family for many years. This time she protected Sister Yue again and asked someone to send her home."

Chen Biyue was a little surprised, "Can't her injury be cured? I thought the doctor from Yong'an could cure her, so I rushed to ask the servants to send her back." As he said that, his eyes were filled with water and tears were about to burst into tears.

Feng Bo sighed: "Even if Xuemei is cured, she can't stay in the Shen family anymore. No matter what the reason is, she threw Sister Yue on the road, no matter what the fact is, and even delayed the Sister Yue outside for so long before she came back. The Duke was even more angry because of this. Not only her, but even the servants who sent her back were driven out."

"How could such a thing happen? But Uncle Feng, I'm safe!"

"Protecting the Lord is the duty of the servant. Xuemei was sent to pick up Sister Yue back. It is her honor to protect Sister Yue. But if the Lord is not good, it is a serious crime. If the merits and demerits are offset, she is already an irrelevant outsider for the Shen family."

She lowered her head silently, looking a little sad.

Seeing this, Feng Bo advised: "I know that Sister Yue has been in Fengshui Prefecture since she was a child, but Sister Yue is all from the Shen family. You should understand that the rules of the Shen family are strict and the relationship between the master and the servant is also strict. It is natural for the servant to protect the master. If you encounter such a thing in the future, Sister Yue will suffer as long as you do. Don't have any guilt, otherwise you will suffer a great loss."
