Chapter 95 Su Ji
"I don't think so." Shen Zhan leaned close to her ear and kissed, "I have been busy with the guards recently and went to Liaodong. Before I left, I saw more than a dozen portraits... Now I feel tired when I close my eyes gasp."

Shen Zhan told the story of his past ten days in detail.

"I see what the Holy Majesty means. Which prince is going to be granted a fiefdom in Liaodong? Before the Holy Majesty makes a decision, I have to set up all the guards, so as not to meet anyone and offend others."

Su Wanru sneered, and said in a sour tone, "You're still afraid of offending someone."

"I'm afraid." Shen Zhan coughed and said, "The little devil is hard to deal with. I don't have time to fight with others right now. I'm very busy."

Su Wanru pouted and rolled her eyes, and said calmly: "Why are you telling me this, I don't want to hear it."

"I say mine, you can listen to you or not." Shen Zhan said, resting his head on her shoulders, "Building a guardhouse is more difficult than I imagined, how the surrounding land is planned, even though I opened up wasteland It’s ours, but we have to go through the motions with the local government and sign the contract, which is enough for me to get tired, so I will go out to do errands after the new year, and I will probably be out for half a year.”

"I'm worried about you being in the capital." He frowned and said, "I'll leave Qingliu to you, how about it?"

Su Wanru would not be foolish enough to ask for his people, she immediately vetoed: "No, I have enough manpower now. I will take Du Zhou over in a few days, so don't make things difficult for him."

"It's up to you, up to you." Shen Zhan didn't object, but actually sighed, "You can do whatever you want, as long as you like it."

Su Wanru looked at him suspiciously, he was very strange today, not only easy to talk, but also claimed to have changed from "Master" to me, she tilted her head and asked, "Is it really difficult in the guard?"

"Well. It's not easy." He said, sat up straight again, held her face in his hands and said, "However, as long as I want to do, there is nothing I can't do."

Su Wanru snorted coldly, and after thinking about it, she said, "You don't have to search from place to place in person, you make a list of paperwork, send them down level by level, and tell them your request in black and white, and someone will take care of it for you. If you are afraid that they will not concentrate on their work, you can reveal some intentions to appoint local people, those officials who do not have brothers and nephews, you can arrange one or two people to go in, and you will not be afraid that they will not be dedicated."

The reasoning is the same, not to mention Shen Zhan, even Zhao Zhiang let the local officials do things without leaking some oil from their hands.

People are profit-seeking, and if there are benefits, some people will go forward. There is no benefit, even if the heavenly king and Lao Tzu assign them face to face, there are many obediences and inconsistencies.

"This is a good idea." Shen Zhan brightened, and hugged her like a treasure, "Go on."

Su Wanru paused for a moment, and then said: "It's the same in the middle of the capital. In the past, the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies was an idle yamen. Now that you have made such a fuss, you will undoubtedly become a piece of fat. You can go up and set up an idler in each guard, or It is a guerrilla general, or a commanding officer. Anyway, the imperial court pays a salary, and the various places are hard, so no one will go to the post, and neither the left nor the right will hinder your affairs, but with this crop, everyone has expectations, and no one will stop you."

"You have power outside the capital, they are far away and have no feelings, but with these few errands, and the appointment is in your hands, it is quite different."

Shen Zhan didn't speak. After a while, he nodded and said, "You reminded me. I'm afraid these few things alone are not enough. The military ranks of the guards should also be listed in detail. It doesn’t matter who comes and who goes to the person who pushed me.”

They are all idle jobs, just for the sake of following Yin En.

Su Wanru nodded, Shen Zhan would understand at once, and when he calmed down and thought about it carefully, the arrangement would be more comprehensive, "Zhao Zhiang will not object to this matter, thinking that you have solved his important matter of sealing Yin."

"Little girl." Shen Zhan hugged her and kissed her, and said with a laugh: "Your little head is really enough!"

Su Wanru was angry, so she pushed her up, "You can go, I've finished what I need to say." She said she wanted to stand up and leave.

She was idle and stupid, giving him advice on how to manage Da Zhou, it would be of no benefit to her if he managed it.

"Let's go!" Shen Zhan hugged her and got up, "Come and have dinner with me, and when it gets dark, let's go visit the clan mansion."

Su Wanru thought he was just talking casually, but now she mentioned it again, and couldn't help saying: "What's so interesting about the clan mansion, I won't go there!"

"Then you go with me." Shen Zhan smiled, holding her face, "I have never been to the clan mansion either."

Su Wanru gave him a blank look, although her heart was pounding and she wanted to go very much, but she didn't dare to show it on her face, she said with restraint: "Zhao Jun is still there, you can go there if you want, you can go shopping if you want place?"

"There's nothing wrong with it." Shen Zhan blinked his eyes, "It's going to take a little trouble, but now there's a good reason for it."

It's about idle work in the guard.

"I'm not going!" She turned her face away and pushed her away, sitting at the table pouring tea, Shen Zhan was sitting opposite her, looking at her, "Still angry?"

Su Wanru ignored him.

"Okay! I was wrong that day, and I won't do anything when I see him in the future." Shen Zhan promised, "Whatever you say, I will listen to you."

She didn't believe him at all, and she got excited after a while, and it didn't matter what he said.

"Zhao Zhongyuan said something that day, and I thought about it over and over for several days." Shen Zhan snatched her teacup and drank tea, Su Wanru said: "What did he say."

Shen Zhan drank his tea and looked at her with deep eyes, with emotional turbulence inside, which Su Wanru couldn't understand at the moment, "He said I don't understand your pain..."

She frowned, how could Zhao Yan say such a thing suddenly.

"I thought about it." Shen Zhan leaned on the chair, folded his arms and looked thoughtful, "I understand, but whether I understand or not, the feeling will naturally be different from different angles."

Su Wanru understands what he means. Shen Zhan is a person who is said to be complicated, but in fact he is very simple. He sets a goal for himself and moves forward bravely. Cause and effect.

He didn't understand because he didn't have the word imperial power in his heart. He wandered in the market since he was a child, and he saw people living in poverty, eating bran vegetables and cold steamed buns. Who owns the world at the end is irrelevant to him.

He just wants to be fed, to be warm, to look like a human being, that's all.

"What are you thinking about?" Shen Zhan held her hand across the table, "I've thought about these things for a while, instead of worrying about what I understand and what I don't understand, why don't you tell me frankly, I will go through fire and water if I can do it, and I will go through fire and water if I can't do it I risk my life to help, how about it."

He said with a very serious look of cutting his heart out.

Su Wanru's heart was shaken, was Shen Zhan hinting at her, telling her that even if she wanted to save Su Ji, take revenge on Zhao Zhiang, take over the world and change the name of Da Zhou to Hou Song, he would not hesitate?

She shook her head secretly, no... no, no one would be so stupid.

For the sake of the love of your children, you have to start all over again for the sake of your son and daughter's love, and just discard it... No one in this world can do it.

She... She couldn't bear to let him do this either.

Even if one day we meet each other in battle, we will fight for strength, but we must never let him give up everything he has earned so hard to help her start all over again.

What's more, there is no possibility of re-starting, and even, he died before he was able to succeed.

does it worth.

She deserves it, but Shen Zhan doesn't.

"Okay." Su Wanru said sullenly: "I have nothing to confess to you. I am just such a person. You know all three or five friends. What do you want me to confess?"

Shen Zhan didn't speak, but patted her head.

"Let's go." She lowered her head and played with her nails, "Buy your errands well, and don't make wedding dresses for others."

Shen Zhan slapped the table and shouted: "Whoever dares to take food from me, I will kill him."

Su Wanru chuckled, and muttered, "Crazy! You think you're fighting for steamed buns."

"It's just steamed buns." Shen Zhan came over again and hugged her in his arms, "But steamed buns are not as important as a wife. After I leave, you can stay in the capital honestly. Anyone who wants to bully you can go to Qingliu. There is still Qiu Rong in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, he came back with me, and will stay in the capital as an official from now on."

Qiu Rong, this name is a bit familiar, she seems to have heard of it.

"Is it your lieutenant general?" Su Wanru asked, "Didn't you stay in Gansu to lead the army?" Shen Zhan's soldiers were all in Gansu, and when he came to the capital, he left Qiu Rong to lead the army there. Years later it becomes loose sand.

"There is still someone over there, let him come back and run errands for me first." Shen Zhan said: "I will introduce him to you sometime."

Su Wanru said nothing, if she had a choice, she didn't want to know any of them.

"Little girl." Shen Zhan picked her up and put her on his lap, "Don't be angry anymore, huh?"

Su Wanru didn't speak.

"I was wrong, and it's all my fault. From now on, I will only move my mouth and not my hands." He coaxed her with a smile, and seeing that she didn't respond, he said again: "From now on, only you will not flirt with Zhao Zhongyuan, and I will turn a blind eye. Just close your eyes, okay."

"When did I flirt with each other?" Su Wanru was even angrier.

Shen Zhan coughed a few times, "Yes, no, no, it's me flirting."

"Shameless, Zhao Zhongyuan wouldn't be willing to flirt with you." She rolled his eyes at him.

Shen Zhan smiled again and said: "Why don't I teach you how to bark like a dog..." Then he said: "The barking of Er Gouzi, sir... I learned how to slip away."

"What two dogs, who wants you to bark like a dog, you are free." Su Wanru pinched him, but Shen Zhan didn't feel any pain, and nodded, "Then don't learn, I will sing a song for you."

Su Wanru remembered that he bullied her at the beginning and asked her to sing, so she said maliciously: "Okay, let's sing."

"Sing it." He coughed and snorted, "Sister's little hand..."

As soon as he started, Su Wanru was furious, covered his mouth, and said through gritted teeth, "Shen Zhan! If you dare to sing me a word again, I'll kill you!"

Shen Zhan smiled, his eyes seemed to be shining, he looked at her brightly, and said in a muffled voice: "Little hands, they are soft."

"You!" Su Wan punched and kicked angrily, "Rogue, bandit, shameless..." Anyway, she greeted her with all the words she could think of.

She was tired of scolding, but Shen Zhan was happy to hear it, stared at her holding her face together, then moved his lips, and kissed him in a mess, Su Wanru pinched his arm hard, and said angrily: "There is no such shameless person in this world. "

"What do you need for face? Just want a daughter-in-law." Shen Zhan leaned against her and said with a playful smile, "If face doesn't work, only a daughter-in-law will."

It's good-looking, funny, and has enough brains.

A daughter-in-law is as good as his daughter-in-law, he wished to compare all the women in the world, so that they would know what a real woman is.

He has to be like his daughter-in-law, and anything else, that's a...

Shen Zhan looked smug, and complained softly, "If you don't fight, you will be lazy. After running for more than ten days, you haven't eaten, slept or drank, and you feel very tired. You feel that you have lost a lot of weight."

Fei took her hand and touched his chest.

Su Wanru felt that she wasn't thin, and the flesh on her breasts could still shake, she withdrew her hand with a dark face, and said with contempt: "Shameless!"

He laughed under his breath, feeling disappointed, "What a broken place, it's suffocating."

Su Wanru burst out laughing, "What a lousy place, who told you to come here, and you're still suffocating, I don't think you're happy."

"That's you." Shen Zhan said, "You're not here, let's see if I come."

Su Wanru ignored him.

"Let's eat." Shen Zhan whispered: "Take you to the Ruyun Pavilion, eat whatever you want!"

She stared at him contemptuously for a moment, and Shen Zhan smiled and pulled her out, "He is stingy and doesn't even treat you to delicious food. I will treat you to whatever you want."

"Boring!" Su Wanru was dragged out by him. There were only three people living in the backyard. It was daytime and everyone was working in the front, so the backyard was empty. He walked leisurely and took her over the wall. Lu Cheng Waiting outside in the car, saw her bowed and said: "Girl."

"I think Lu Cheng and Qingliu are good. Let's arrange the marriage for them tomorrow." Su Wanru stopped in front of Lu Cheng, and said provocatively: "Mr. Lu is thinking about his great-grandson, and it will be all over as soon as possible." He has one thing on his mind."

Lu Cheng was taken aback for a moment, then his face changed drastically, he and Qingliu?
"Girl... girl, I was wrong." Lu Cheng looked scared, "From now on, you can do whatever you say, except for Min Wang and I, we will follow your orders. Please spare your subordinates."

Su Wanru folded her arms and looked at him, thinking of his appearance in the temple that time, she sneered, "Am I bullying you? Ask your master." Then she looked at Shen Zhan, "Am I bullying him."

"No, you are giving him face when you talk to him." Shen Zhan agreed, "Just do as you say."

Lu Cheng wanted to cry but had no tears. He sat on the shaft of the car sadly, holding his whip and hanging his head.

Su Wanru held back her laughter, snorted and got into the carriage.

Shen Zhan followed, coughed and said, "Go to Ruyun Pavilion."

"Oh." Lu Cheng waved his whip weakly. He knew that Su Wanru was trying to scare him, but he couldn't bear it. He was really frightened. He couldn't bear to listen to her... In the future, if the girl enters the door, it will be Ma'am, how is he doing this day?

"Why didn't you see Min Wang?" Su Wanru was sitting in the car, pushing Shen Zhan to prevent him from coming over, so he took her hand and kissed her, saying, "Let him tonight." Go and apologize to you, there are no girls in my house, so I can find a woman and tell him."

He looked serious, and she couldn't help laughing, and said, "Are you willing?"

"I'm not willing." Shen Zhan shook his head, "But you're happy, as long as you're happy."

Su Wanru had nothing to say, so Lu Chengcheng added, "Min Wang likes to eat dumplings made by Aunt Liu."

"There is no good person." Su Wanru laughed and asked Lu Cheng, "I think you like food."

Lu Cheng shook his head and said emphatically, "Min Wang likes to eat."

A few people were joking, and entered the Ruyun restaurant through the side door, only then did she know that someone rich and powerful had bought up the entire restaurant, and led her to choose a private seat on the second floor. No one will ever see you with me."

He was so abnormal today that Su Wanru couldn't get used to it.

When the food was served, it was a rare table, and she said in amazement: "The two of us can't finish it."

"You can't eat well if the dishes are missing." He picked up vegetables for her, and usually eat together. She is very picky, and she can't move after a few mouthfuls of a dish. Cook more today, and you will be full after a few mouthfuls of each dish." Eat more, too thin, ugly!"

Su Wanru glared at him and asked, "Who do you call ugly?"

"I'm ugly." He pointed, "It's ugly."

She laughed and muttered something, the two of them ate slowly, Su Wanru tried her best to eat more, but she finished seven dishes and one soup, and he held her chopsticks again, huh la la poured all the leftovers into his own bowl In the middle of the day, he finished eating three or two bites, and said with a frown: "I don't count, and I will fight with me when I'm full."

"Who ever quarreled with you, you made trouble yourself." She ignored him, put down the chopsticks, leaned on the chair and couldn't move, and thought it was ridiculous, so she couldn't help laughing.

The two talked aimlessly for a while, and the sky gradually darkened. Shen Zhan got up and said, "Let's go, visit the clan mansion."

As he spoke, he pulled her up and went downstairs to the carriage. Lu Chengcheng brought over a set of servant clothes, and Shen Zhan stood outside the carriage, "It's convenient to change clothes."

Su Wanru didn't say anything, she changed her clothes in the carriage, and found that Lu Cheng got her some stage paint, so she wiped some on, Shen Zhan came in and shook her head, "It's still so pretty, let's paint some more. "

As he spoke, he did it himself, and painted her face black, making her look short, thin, dark and ugly, not inconspicuous at all.

Su Wanru let him do whatever he wanted, she didn't care what she looked like.

As soon as the two people's carriage arrived at the side door of the clan mansion, someone inside opened the door, stood respectfully at the door, and saluted: "Master Hou, why are you free to come here today?"

"Come and see the brothers." Shen Zhan got off the car, without looking back at Su Wanru, he put the shoulders of the guards in front, "How about it, it's easy to work in the clan mansion."

The man shook his head and said helplessly: "To tell you the truth, this is a place where gangsters eat and wait to die. The brothers' bones are loose."

"Practice when you feel relaxed." Shen Zhan laughed, "I happen to be free today, so I asked my brothers to come over and do some tricks."

The man's eyes lit up and he was very excited, "Grandpa...I'm going to call the brothers over here." After saying that, he ran towards Ruyi Gate, stood at the door and yelled, "Master is here, everyone who is not on duty will come out."

Su Wanru followed behind Shen Zhan, when she heard cheers inside, someone shouted: "Change me, I'll kowtow to the Lord and come out, just a while, just a while."

"Nonsense, if you go, I won't go."

After the noise, there was a rush of footsteps, and a dozen people ran out, and when they saw Shen Zhan, they knelt down on one knee and shouted: "My subordinates greet you!"

"Okay, okay." Shen Zhan waved his hands and said, "This is not a battlefield, let's be more casual."

Everyone laughed with excitement on their faces, "Master, you have been back to Beijing for a long time, brothers want to see you, but are afraid of disturbing you, why do you remember this place today?"

"Just passing by." Shen Zhan put his hand behind his back and looked around, "Zong's man-made is not bad, it's better than you who are exposed to the wind and sun outside."

Everyone shook their heads, "Grandpa, I'm afraid you think we're troublesome, but I have to say something. Although it's comfortable to nest here, and you don't have to turn your head away, it's not as free and easy as when I followed you, brothers Almost suffocated."

Shen Zhan laughed loudly, raised his brows and said, "When I'm free, I'll take you for a walk outside the pass, and meet Dari Achi."

"Master, the brothers are waiting for you at any time, as long as you give an order, the brothers will not fail to respond."

Looking at the picture in front of her, Su Wanru couldn't help sighing, even though some people were no longer on the battlefield, those who were thinking about him were still thinking about him, and those who were convinced were still convinced.

"Let's go!" Shen Zhan pointed to the inner courtyard, and didn't ask whether Zhao Jun was there or the servants of the clan's mansion, "Go and practice."

Everyone surrounded Shen Zhan and walked inside.

Su Wanru and Lu Cheng followed behind and came to the place where she stopped last time. The yard where Su Ji was locked up was only a few dozen steps away. Shen Zhan suddenly turned around and said, "Find an empty yard. Bad influence."

"Then go to the yard." Someone pointed to the nearest yard, "There is everything in it, brothers, practice a few hands in it when you are free."

Shen Zhan nodded, strode ahead and entered the yard, Su Wanru stopped outside the yard, and saw that in the yard, everyone took off their coats, shirtless in winter, yelling, Shen Zhan one-on-four, You come and I go, the fight is in full swing.

The servant in the yard next door was very itchy. Su Wanru looked around and saw that Lu Cheng had also entered the yard. She backed up bravely. After walking a few steps and turning a corner, she saw two guards. It wasn't surprising to her, and asked, "Did you do something?"

"It's on." Su Wanru coughed, and said in a rough voice, "Aren't you going to take a look?"

The two of you look at me, I look at you, grabbed Su Wanru and said, "You can be my servant for a cup of tea, we'll come as soon as we go."

Even if someone comes at this time, they can't do anything, everyone is not talking, and Shen Zhan is also there.

Who ate the bear's heart and leopard's gall, and ran into the clan's mansion to rob people.

As soon as the two left, Su Wanru hurriedly ran to the wall. The wall was too high for her to climb over. She looked around and found a wooden ladder in the corner. She was stunned for a moment and thought it was strange to have a ladder here, but she didn't think much of it. Thinking about it, I went up and dragged the ladder to the wall.

Her palms were covered with sweat, her heart was pounding, she turned her head from time to time to see if anyone was coming, even the legs that were stepping on the ladder were trembling.

Second brother, second brother... are you okay?

She climbed up, but her feet slipped and fell down. She sucked in the pain on the ground, and without caring much, she got up and grabbed the ladder and climbed up in three or two steps, standing at the top and passing her body. half the wall.

The yard is not big, there are three rooms in a row, and a hole is dug in the gate of the yard, it should be delivered food on weekdays.

There was no one in the yard, but the door was open. Under the eaves was a dark quilted priestly robe hanging neatly. When the wind blew the robe moved, she watched the tears fall uncontrollably in an instant. down.

"Cuckoo." She didn't dare to call Su Ji, and imitated the bird song that Su Ji had taught her. She couldn't learn it well, and was ridiculed by Su Ji, "Cuckoo..." She yelled softly two more times Voice.

The yard was quiet, but it was boiling outside. She was afraid that Su Ji wouldn't hear it, so she picked the mud off the wall and threw it into the yard.

"Second brother." She covered her mouth anxiously, tears streaming down, "Second brother."

Her eyes were dim with tears, she couldn't wait to see her, but she was afraid, she didn't know what she was afraid of, her heart was beating in her throat...

At this moment, suddenly there was a movement of people in the main hall, and she saw a figure coming out of it, staggering across the threshold, seeing the darkness in front of her eyes, she held on to the ladder firmly, and murmured : "Second brother."

Su Ji has become fatter, just as Zhao Jun said, he is not only fatter, but also a lot fatter. He used to have thick eyebrows and big eyes, handsome features, thin, slender, and a comfortable temperament. Not like a martial artist, but like a man who has read poetry Scholars, she dare not recognize Su Ji now, her face is stretched out, her eyes are lifeless, and her fat body is wrapped in an ill-fitting robe, standing at the door, which makes her feel a little strange.

"Second brother!" Su Wanru called softly, Su Ji walked a few steps quickly, looked at her in disbelief, then stopped, her eyes turned red for a moment.

A year apart, the brother and sister looked at each other silently.

"Wanwan." Su Ji waved her voice hoarsely, "Go back, it's not fun here, be good."

Su Wanru covered her mouth and nodded, "I'm going..." she said, "Wait for me, wait for me to rescue you, and take you along."

Su Ji stared at her face, with tears streaming down her face, pursed her lips, and said: "Second brother, it doesn't matter whether you live or die, you have to live well, remember not!" Then said: "You are outside alone, don't be self-willed, the food is unpalatable I have to eat, and the bed is too hard and I have to rest, remember not.”

He didn't mention anything, didn't ask anything, he just told her to take care of herself.

"I know." Su Wanru wiped her tears, "I just want to say one thing, second brother, you have to remember... Wait for me, I will definitely rescue you, trust me."

Su Ji was stunned and couldn't bear it. Her younger sister was the proud daughter of heaven, who was raised in the hands of his brothers. Now she is suffering like this. He shook his head and said, "Second brother doesn't matter if he lives or dies. You live well."

"Remember." Su Wanru knew that she didn't have much time, "I will definitely rescue you when I sacrifice to heaven next year. Take care of yourself."

As she spoke, she glanced again, and with difficulty retracted her gaze and quickly got off the ladder, she heard Su Ji say through the wall, "Okay, second brother wait for Wanwan."

Su Wanru nodded, regardless of whether Su Ji could see it or not, she dragged the ladder back and put it back. She wiped her tears and took a deep breath to calm down her emotions.

The courtyard next door was still making noise, she could hear Shen Zhan's yelling, she pursed her lips and said nothing, when the two guards on duty came back, cupped their hands at her, and said, "Please, please."

"It's okay." Su Wanru returned the salute, went back to the door and continued to watch with her head down.

Shen Zhan was sweating, seeing Su Wanru had come back from the corner of his eye, he laughed and said, "Change four more, your skills are not good!"

Su Wanru felt a little cold, she rubbed her hands and leaned against the wall, she couldn't feel her toes.

I don't know how long it took, Shen Zhan came out with his clothes on, talking with everyone while walking out, Su Wanru was waiting by the carriage, and when he got into the carriage, he just sat on the shaft and didn't speak.

In the clan's mansion, everyone gathered together to speculate, "Isn't the Lord coming here for no reason, could it be related to the Mansion of the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies. He wants to spread camps and guards widely."

"Will you take us there?" Someone asked: "If you go to the guard, it will definitely be better than here. The sky is high and the sea is wide, and it is much better than this Laoshizi place."

Everyone was talking in whispers, when Zhao Jun got the news and arrived, he found out that Shen Zhan had already left. He recruited someone to ask and found out that Shen Zhan was here to find everyone to fight and practice boxing. Didn't say a few words.

He felt strange, could it be that he wanted to pick someone from the clan's mansion to serve as an errand in the five armies' governor's mansion?
But he is not short of manpower, there is no need to come here to pick people.

Can't tell.

Zhao Jun couldn't figure it out, and was closing the door of the study when he heard someone outside reply: "Your Highness, Prince Zhu is here."

"Invite him to come in." Zhao Jun waited for Zhu Xun in the room, as soon as he came in he yelled, "Master Hou is gone?"

Zhao Jun nodded, and asked strangely: "You have heard Hou Ye say how the guards are arranged, and how he arranges the plans in his hands." This is a piece of fat, even if it is in his hands, it cannot be underestimated .

"I don't know." Zhu Xun said: "I met him last time in Jinxiufang, and I haven't found time to meet him. If His Highness knows, I will help you to ask? But he doesn't have to tell me, if my father It’s more like asking.”

"No need." Zhao Jun replied: "He will play sooner or later if there is any movement, and we will know when the time comes."

Zhu Xun gave a cry of rescue, but did not speak.

The carriage stopped in the alley of Baoying Embroidery Workshop, Shen Zhan opened the curtain to look at her, and said with a smile: "How is it, how is the master?"

Showing his true nature again, she thought he would never call himself "Master".

"Smart and powerful, with one against ten, you can kill all directions." She was perfunctory, and gave him a blank look, "Put on your clothes well, and you will suffer when you get sick."

Shen Zhan just laughed, pinched her face, and said: "Got it. You go back and rest, and I will take you to visit the clan mansion some other day." He whispered: "What happened today, tomorrow everyone I will definitely guess why I am going, so it will be smoother to mention setting up idle jobs tomorrow. How about it, I am smart."

"Yes, you are the smartest." Su Wanru laughed, jumped out of the car, and said, "Go back, I'll be seen later."

Shen Zhan nodded and patted her head, "Go to bed early, I will come to see you in a few days, and I have something to do these days."

Su Wanru didn't say yes, but she didn't refuse either. She turned around and walked inside. After walking a few steps, she looked back at him. She saw Shen Zhan and looked at her with a smile. .

"No one noticed?" As soon as she left, Shen Zhan put away his smile, and Lu Cheng replied, "Yes, the ladder was taken away, and no one noticed."

Shen Zhan nodded slightly, thought for a while, and said, "Should I also go see Su Ji?"

Lu Cheng coughed and said nothing.

He went back with this in mind, and left the matter to Zhou Feng, "Prepare for the ceremony." Zhou Feng nodded, "The subordinates are all ready, who are you going to add to it? What are you going to prepare? "

Shen Zhan sat behind the table, flipped through the pile of letters, opened them with frowned eyebrows, looked up at Zhou Feng solemnly, and replied: "Just get me a decent dagger and a bronze cauldron. some."

Zhou Feng was drinking tea, and spouted out again, "Give this year's gift, sir, who are you going to give it to?"

"Master is going to find an excuse to visit the clan, have a drink with Su Ji, and give him some new year gifts." Shen Zhan didn't look at him, and ordered casually.

He should go there, Su Ji doesn't want to see him is Su Ji's business, he has to do everything right.

Zhou Feng said in horror: "Master Hou, you... you want to give Su Ji a gift?" He turned around in his heart, thinking about the joints inside, he seemed to understand something, but he seemed to have thought of nothing.

She didn't know Su Wanru's specific identity, neither Shen Zhan nor Lu Cheng mentioned it, it's not that she doesn't believe him, but she just thinks that he's a lot of things, and it's inevitable that she will talk nonsense if she finds out.

I kept it a secret.

Shen Zhan said patiently, "Well, I met him in the early years, and you know about it. Now that the New Year's Day is approaching, it's normal to visit old friends."

Although he was locked up in the clan's mansion, there was no problem for him to take a look.

"Okay, okay." Zhou Feng stopped asking, walked a few steps and looked back at what Shen Zhan wanted to say, then paused and walked out quickly.

Shen Zhan dropped his pen and put his foot on the table to think about something. Lu Cheng replied outside: "Master, Qiu Rong is here."

"Please come in." After Shen Zhan finished speaking, a tall man walked in the door after a while. His left eye was covered with a cloth, and a scar stretched from the brow bone to the ear, distorting the originally delicate facial features. Some infiltrating, menacing look.

"Brother." Qiu Rong sat down opposite him, his voice was very different from his appearance, not only clear but also very soft, "I have repaired several courtyards, and I think there will be nothing wrong before the year. How do you spend the New Year?" , here or go out?"

"Do you have a place to go? If you don't have a place to go, it's in the capital." Shen Zhan retracted his legs and said, "I'm just taking you to meet my sister-in-law."

Qiu Rong laughed when he heard that, shook his head and said: "Mynah, don't tell me I really want to see you. I have heard that you have been studying for so many years, but I don't know what kind of fairy you will look like." Then he said: "Then I Do you want to prepare some gifts for sister-in-law, what does sister-in-law like?"

Shen Zhan thought for a while, Su Wanru really didn't reveal what she likes in particular, she used to have everything, let alone like it, but now she has nothing, let alone like it, "Get her two jars of something sweeter fruit bar, she likes to drink."

"Success." Qiu Rong didn't pay much attention, got up and said, "I'll look for it, there are really not many fruit wines that can be eaten."

Shen Zhan nodded and watched him go out.

Su Wanru stood in the aisle, and Su Ji's appearance appeared in front of her eyes. She was fat and puffy, and her vigor had been honed to the point where she was left silent. She burst into tears. She missed that handsome and heroic second brother, and felt even more distressed for this handsome and handsome second brother. The second brother in his twilight years.

She knew very well that Su Ji's ability to live strong was already the greatest perseverance. He was defeated, his family and country were gone, it was already difficult for him to endure humiliation, and she couldn't ask for more.

All that needs to be done is to rescue him as soon as possible and make him the former Su Ji.

"Princess." Duan Zhen, Liu Changwen and Hu Shisanniang were all there, "You...have you really seen the Second Highness?"

Su Wanru nodded, "It was the Marquis of Zhennan who helped. I saw him. He is fat and not in good spirits, but he should be in good health. He can walk and talk..."

"That's good, that's good." They don't have high requirements, as long as the person is good, and the person is still there, that is hope. The three of them were excited and burst into tears. Princess, what other plans do you have, just tell us, we will do it right away."

Can't wait, want to get things ready and rescue Su Ji.

"Let's put the patriarchal mansion in Wu Zhongjun's hands first." Su Wanru pursed her lips and said, "We have to find a way to put someone next to him, no matter who it is, there will be a watcher. Moreover, not only by Wu Zhongjun's side, but also in Beijing. Every mansion has to arrange people, and you start to choose the right one, preferably a woman, who will be more convenient to do business and travel."

"We thought about it too, but it's not easy to handle." Liu Changwen hesitated, and arranged for people to go to other mansions. It seemed easy, just watch Ren Yazi sell them in, but it's not the case, Ren Yazi picks and sells people There are also those who are particular, and the buyer of the other party is also more particular about it.

Moreover, when newcomers enter the mansion, most of them are working in the outer courtyard, and they can't find any useful information at all. If this is the case, it is better not to let them go, which will only add to the burden.

"I'll figure out a way, one mansion after another." Su Wanru looked at Hu Shisanniang, "When the time comes, these people will ask my aunt to teach them how to move around in the mansion."

Hu Shisanniang did a good job in Prince Ning's Mansion. Not only did she become a mother in charge, but she also gained the trust of Zha Rongsheng.

Putting eyeliner is a long-term plan. Even if Su Ji is rescued, these people can still be used.

"Okay, then let's go select people." Liu Changwen didn't ask any more questions, they had no doubts about Su Wanru's ability now, "You have to be careful over at Jinxiufang, I think they have suffered from you twice in a row , will definitely not let it go."

"I'm afraid they won't move." Su Wanru said: "I know this matter well, and I will definitely mention it if I need your help. Also, let Du Zhou come earlier, and I have something to discuss with him."

"Already on the way." Duan Zhen said, "He and Dr. Mei will be there in two days."

Su Wanru nodded, explained a few more words, and everyone dispersed.

She went back to her room and lay down without sleeping all night, her mind was tossing and turning, Su Ji in gray and white gown for a while, and Shen Zhan shirtless for a while, overlapping each other made her have a splitting headache.

She simply sat up, took the fan and continued to embroider, but her heart gradually calmed down. After a while, she washed up and went to the front.

Shen Zhan was not here again, she was preparing for the New Year with everyone. On the day of the 23rd, everyone was busy dusting and cleaning. Su Wanru and Zhou Xian helped each other wash their hair. The sun was warm, and she wore her hair in the Wipe, the lady at the door came in with a smile, and said, "Sister Su, your elder brother has arrived."

"Here?" Su Wanru stood up abruptly, put down the comb and ran out, Zhou Xian also ran out to look with curiosity on her face.

Su Wanru ran all the way to the front yard, when she saw Du Zhou and Mei Yu entering the door together, she laughed and shouted: "Du Zhou!"

"Oh, my..." He wanted to say the princess, but he stopped, "My sister..." rushed over.

The corner of Su Wanru's mouth twitched, she caught Du Zhou with a smile on her face, and said in a low voice, "Why don't you have any manliness at all, you won't be allowed to behave like this here in the future."

"Princess, I've been clean since I was a few years old." Du Zhou grumbled, Su Wanru nodded, "I know, I'm wrong."

Du Zhou laughed.

Su Wanru greeted Mei Yu and said, "Doctor Mei, the journey is going smoothly, thank you for your hard work."

"It's okay, it's okay." Mei Yu blushed and didn't dare to look at Su Wanru. Du Zhou frowned and realized that Su Wanru came out with her hair covered, so she pressed down and said, "My little ancestor, it's freezing cold today Yes, why are you wearing wet hair, what if you get a cold, what if you get a headache, you can’t take care of yourself anyway.” Then he said: “It’s shameful for you to wear hair, Mei Ziqing is a foreigner .”

Su Wanru brushed Long's hair in embarrassment. She thought Du Zhou was alone, so she smiled and said, "I'll do it in a while. Follow me to see aunt."

"Okay." Du Zhou nodded, suddenly remembered something, and looked back at the door, Su Wanru thought there was someone else, so she also looked at the door, and saw a khaki dog sneaking in from the door. Staring at her, she barked twice in a low voice as if flattering her.

"Dog?" Su Wanru was stunned, and Du Zhou said angrily, "Don't mention it, I don't know whose dog it is, it followed us halfway, and we couldn't even shake it off." He also robbed him of food.

Su Wanru was stunned, she walked over and waved, and the dog ran in with light steps and familiarity.

"Er Gouzi!" Su Wanru was surprised.

It was Shen Zhan's dog.
