Fengqi Jingshi

Chapter 61 The Breeze Rises (2)

Shen Junzhuo looked at Shen Yu standing in front of him, remembered the magnolia hairpin, scoffed in his heart, sized him up, and said:
"I heard that your father is going to invite you to be crowned heir?"

Shen Yu felt that his legs were starting to tremble, and he tried hard to control himself, so as not to shake like a sifter in front of Shen Junzhuo, and to avoid embarrassment in front of Shu Yao.For some unknown reason, he had a feeling that this Uncle Jiu didn't take him seriously in the past, but today he suddenly changed his attitude - that attitude didn't value him anymore, but despised him even more, so despised that he felt It is a speck of dust, humbled into the soil.

He heard his own voice trembling:
"Yes, my father said that when the official family returns to the court, I will go to Shu."

Shen Junzhuo smiled lightly, the laughter sounded a bit teasing to Shen Yu's ears.But he didn't dare to look at his face anymore, he just lowered his head, standing there feeling uncomfortable, tense, embarrassed, afraid, humble.

There was a soft sound behind him, the sound of the curtain being lifted.Shen Yu turned her head and saw Mrs. Jiang coming with those concubine sisters. She suddenly felt that she had a savior, and hurriedly called out to her mother.

Mrs. Jiang glanced at him, then looked at Shen Junzhuo, and said:

"Uncle Jiu is free today, so there's nothing else to do in the court? Why did you sit here so long when you have time?"

Shen Junzhuo stood up, sneered and said:

"My sister-in-law is so forgetful. Everyone celebrates the New Year. Even the officials are exempted from early court, so why don't I also celebrate the New Year? But when my sister-in-law came, she really reminded me that I have something to do. Some people rely on the meritorious deeds of their ancestors. , the title has not changed for three consecutive generations. When it comes to the fourth generation, it has not made any achievements and is of no benefit to the court. If the title remains unchanged, it will be a bit out of order. Sister-in-law is a very disciplined person, don’t you think Woolen cloth?"

Madam Jiang's eyes were burning, and she looked straight at him.Who are these people talking about?It is the Maoguo Mansion!If he really wants to slander in front of the officials, it is entirely possible for Shen Yu to lower his rank when Shen Yu inherits the title.Although doing so is not good for him, it is very bad for Shen Minghe and Mrs. Jiang!
Such a blatant threat made Madam Jiang feel very embarrassed, and the anger in her heart was surging up and down, causing her chest to hurt.But even so, she didn't dare to confront him directly.He is just talking like this now, but he may not really do it. If it really angers him, it will force him to do it.

Mrs. Jiang only felt a severe pain in her heart. These thoughts circled in her mind for a few times, and finally suppressed her anger. With a cold face, she squeezed out a smile and said:
"Uncle Jiu was joking. It's not that our Shen family has made achievements. Aren't you the greatest benefit of the Shen family to the court? The official family needs your help to sit firmly in the Jiuzhong Palace. The country is stable and the people are happy. objection!"

Shen Junzhuo walked down from above, and said while walking:
"Sister-in-law, it's better not to put gold on your face. What I did has nothing to do with the Maoguo government. The officials know this clearly. In addition, I advise my sister-in-law to pay more attention to food on weekdays, such as longan, Eat less dried and fresh lychees, it will save you from being very angry all day long and hurting your body, if there is another trivial matter in this mansion, won't it just cause trouble for nothing?"

As he said that, he walked past Mrs. Jiang without stopping at all, lifted the curtain and went out, leaving the whole room silent.
