Chapter 393: Those who are close to red are red; those who are close to ink are black

In the evening, Shen Xia accompanied Song Ming and had dinner in the room.

Shen Xia looked at Song Ming: "Second brother, these are your favorite foods. I asked the kitchen to make them."

Song Ming grinned and said, "Well, thank you Xia Xia."

Shen Xia picked up a piece of food for Song Ming: "Second brother, are you being distant with me?"

"No, I just feel so happy that Xia Xia has me in her heart." Song Ming said with a smile.

"No matter what happens in the future, Xia Xia will always have her second brother in her heart." Shen Xia looked firmly into Song Ming's eyes and said affirmatively.

"Okay, I believe it." Song Ming nodded, then raised his hand and gently wiped the red oil from the corner of Shen Xia's mouth.

Xia Xia’s words are more important than anything else.

Shen Xia thought that she was different from men.

Men may get tired of the old and love the new, but she won’t. She will treat everyone equally.

"Second brother, Princess Anping and Gu Zizhan have been engaged since childhood, but I have refused this matter, but it seems to be useless. Gu Zizhan is unwilling to back out."

Shen Xia simply and clearly explained what happened with Gu Zizhan.

Song Ming understood it immediately.

The Xia Xia now is no longer Xia Xia.

Xia Xia is Princess Anping, also known as Gu Yuan.

She is engaged to Gu Zizhan.

The one who married them was Shen Xia.

Even the marriage certificate is in Shen Xia's name.

So Gu Yuan's name means unmarried.

He is not honest anyway, so it doesn’t matter, but what about the eldest brother?

"What about brother? How do you arrange for Xia Xia?" Song Ming asked tentatively.

Shen Xia looked at Song Ming's inquiring eyes and said, "It's still early now. Even if Gu Zizhan doesn't agree to cancel the engagement, his mother won't agree to the marriage, so he should take care of his own affairs first."

Shen Xia put down his chopsticks and took Song Ming's hand: "Second brother, will you leave me because I accept Gu Zizhan's marriage proposal?"

Song Ming embraced her and said with a smile, "No, although I feel sorry that you, a princess, have to suffer for so many years because you were lost, but in my heart, it is because you were lost that we met you. I am satisfied with just a little bit of your love. Am I being selfish?"

And Xia Xia also gave birth to a child for us.

Looking at the lovely children, what else could be more satisfying?

I feel that these are all blessings from God, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to marry Xia Xia.

Besides, Xia Xia herself is not the kind of person who gets bored easily.

I don’t know what problems will arise because of the addition of Gu Zizhan.

"No, it is my happiness to meet a few brothers."

Shen Xia stared into Song Ming's eyes and at the corners of his lips.

It was lightly covered, very soft.

Only when she was with Song Ming did she feel that she was tired of him.

When she was with a few other people, she always felt like the one being bullied.

So when she bullied Song Ming.

She finally realized the pleasure of bullying others.

Listening to his voice when he is excited makes people feel happy.

Jixiang Ruyi outside was listening to the voice inside.

Close the outer door quickly.

At this time Qianyu just came over and said she was looking for Shen Xia.

But looking at the closed door.

It was the maid guarding the door.

Listening to the faint voice inside,

The hand under the sleeve clenched into a fist.

At this moment, he really wanted to kidnap the person.

It would be great if there were only the two of them in the world.

Jixiang looked at Qianyu: "Qianyu, Madam has something to do, and you have something to do, come to Madam tomorrow!"

"Okay." After saying that, he turned and left.

Because the next day was fine.

So Shen Xia hesitated with Song Ming for a long time.

Of course Song Ming was also satisfied.

Song Ming handled all the funeral arrangements.

The next day Song Ming went to attend the morning court.

It also caused a joke.

Because there are no empty seats in the morning court.

Therefore, when Song Ming wanted to walk up to Lord Xu, the lord next to Lord Xu looked confused and at a loss.

He thought to himself: Where did this pretty boy come from, and how could he dare to dream of standing in this position?

However, Song Ming didn't care about other people's gazes and doubts, since Lord Zheng told him to stand here anyway.

So the two of them looked at each other, their eyes full of vigilance and confusion.

The other ministers also cast curious glances at him, secretly wondering who this young man was and how he dared to stand so boldly in front.

Did I drink too much yesterday and my mind is not clear?

Just then, Zheng Jinshu walked in and saw the tense atmosphere among the crowd at a glance.

However, since this is Tai Chi Hall, even officials of high status would not dare to cause trouble here.

Zheng Jinshu hurriedly stepped forward and introduced to everyone: "This is Mr. Song Mingsong from the Agriculture Department."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Although they didn't know Song Ming, they were familiar with the name.

After all, food production is the foundation of a country.

Once Song Ming was mentioned, everyone immediately understood that he was a third-rank official.

The adult who was burning with anger just now quickly stepped back.

The positions at the morning court were based on official positions, so after Song Ming stood in that position.

Everyone has to step back.

At this time, Zheng Jinshu's father looked at Zheng Jinshu and said, "Shu'er, this is the Lord Shennong."

Zheng Jinshu nodded: "Yes, father,"

Zheng Jinshu's father was the Minister of War.

He looked at the young man in front of him, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.

His youngest son has always been a concern to him. He has been doing nothing for so many years, which makes him very worried.

It is said that those who keep company with vermilion will be red, and those who keep company with ink will be black. How come he was not influenced at all by Gu Zizhan, that black sesame-filled kid? But unexpectedly, in that remote countryside, he actually made a great career quietly.

Now he has returned to the capital and is promoted to the fourth rank official, even surpassing most of the children of aristocratic families in the capital.

How dare I have this idea before!

Never dreamed of it.

Moreover, his official position is now the same as his own, and he is even more powerful than his brother.

Zheng Jinshu's father knew very well that these achievements were inseparable from the young Shennong in front of him.

Song Ming looked at the middle-aged man who looked 50% like Zheng Jinshu and said, "Hello, Mr. Zheng."

Zheng Youye smiled and nodded: "I didn't expect that Mr. Song is so young, he is really young and promising!"

Song Ming smiled modestly: "Master Zheng, you are too kind. Young Master Zheng is still more outstanding."

The two of them exchanged polite words.

Although Song Ming was not good at speaking in too many roundabout ways, he could still handle general greetings with ease.

The people around turned their eyes to Song Ming, their eyes full of surprise and curiosity.

They never expected that this Lord Shennong was so young, which was very different from the image they had imagined.

Everyone originally thought that Lord Shennong, who had such a deep understanding of agriculture, should be a white-haired, experienced old man, but they did not expect that he looked like a young man in his twenties.

Those who had daughters to be married began to feel excited.

Whether they were of higher or lower rank than Song Ming, they all had some ulterior motives in their minds.

For a time, many families began to consider marriage.

In the capital, daughters were used as tools for marriage alliances and to consolidate relationships.

How could such an opportunity be missed?
