第一百五十六章 灵济宫中遇贵人(下)
最新网址：m.ltxsdz.com
见沈悦有些惶恐，回过神来的朱夫人连忙摇了摇手，又嗔怪地看了那两个妈妈一眼。虽说她也曾经差过人去南京，可听自己人说的，总不过是表面那些，因而她略一思忖，就索性屏退了几个妈妈，单留着沈悦闲话些家常。李庆娘起初还有些不放心，但见朱夫人确实和气亲切，她也就忖度着悄悄退出了屋子。
朱夫人嫁了李东阳多年，尽管恪守本分不问政务，但毕竟出身公侯，丈夫又位高权重，所问自然不全是那些家长里短，反而涉及极杂，时而刚刚还在问三山寺寺后的桃花，一瞬间却又转到了鸡鸣寺的钟鼓，继而又转到一些市井之人少有接触的官场人事。沈悦打叠了精神应对，虽也有好些只能摇摇头，可大多数却都能答得上来。如此一来二去，最初朱夫人还只是他乡闻乡音的亲切，继而就真正生出了几许惊叹来。
就是京城的大家闺秀，也多半只是吟诗作赋爱好风雅，少有这般真真正正大方而又知道世情的！
朱夫人在考较沈悦，沈悦何尝不是在揣摩这位顶尖的贵妇。因而哪怕极其艰难，她也在试图一点一滴地把话头绕往自己希望的那个方向。终于，当朱夫人说到秦淮河上的文德桥时，她便深深吸了一口气，突然面带叹息地说道：“夫人说起文德桥，我倒想起了一件事。就在数月前，文德桥上才发生了一起轰动整个南京城的大案子。”
“哦？”
见朱夫人露出了诧异的表情，沈悦便竭力用最平稳的声调说起了那一场从喜事演变成悲剧的变故。当她说到投水那一刹那的时候，原本以为自己把持得住，可身躯却不由自主颤抖了起来，就连声线也有些变调。好在朱夫人只以为她是情绪激动，并没有在意，只是面色怅然地叹道：“这样的奇女子，真是可惜了。此事的后续我倒是听外子说起过，只没想到那时候竟如此惨烈，那赵钦实在是死有余辜。”
“只可怜沈家一下子没了女儿，那位徐公子一下子失了未婚妻。可终究沈氏有错在先，难得这位徐公子还亲至沈家认下了这门亲事，继而便上了应天府衙击鼓告状。据说应天府衙审案的时候，他的一番诘问气得赵钦当场吐血，一时轰动全城。后来他为亲生父亲挡了盗匪的一箭，又是满城风雨。再加上他先前把养父留下来的田地一股脑儿都捐了出去，算一算已经是好几桩惊世骇俗的事情了。别人都羡慕他得了朝廷褒奖，又封了勋卫，要我说，宁可就这么平平安安过日子，不要发生这许多变故。”
“你说得不错，平安是福！”
沈悦所说，朱夫人也听李东阳说过一二，但毕竟是遥远的南京发生的事，李东阳日理万机，哪里会有这般仔细，至于京城中人就更不可能议论这种南京发生的大案了。因而，她赞同地点了点头后，先是饶有兴致地问了应天府衙审案的全过程，突然想起沈悦提到勋卫二字，不觉就诧异地挑了挑眉。
“等等，你说他封了勋卫？这怎么可能？”
“可真的是封了呀。”沈悦原待点出徐勋便是眼下吏部那一场争袭风波的主角之一，话到嘴边却又生怕画蛇添足，立时吞了回去，却是假作好奇地问道，“夫人怎说此事不可能？”
朱夫人仔仔细细想了想，终究是想起了最近兴安伯府的争袭官司，略一思忖就笑道：“也没什么，只不过惊讶于皇上褒奖之隆罢了……对了，你一个姑娘家，怎生今日独自来灵济宫？我瞅着你呵斥了那对愚夫愚妇，退到香炉旁有些黯然，可是有什么难处？”
尽管是带了些心机来见朱夫人，但这位夫人的慈和没架子，却也打动了沈悦。她几乎就想和盘托出自己的事，可张了张口，却终究不敢说出来，良久才垂下头忍住了眼眶中直打转的眼泪。
“多谢夫人垂询，也说不上什么难处，只是……只是我家里有些变故，此番几个家人护送我到京城来投亲，不巧那位亲戚竟是早两年就病故了，所以我今日到灵济宫来替她祷祝一二，一时有感而发，所以才有些伤心。”
“这已经够难了，还说不上什么难处？”朱夫人嗔怪地摇了摇头，打量着面前这颇讨人喜爱的少女，再想想李东阳一个月几乎天天泡在宫里内阁直房中，待李兆蕃也只是礼法多于亲近，她身边竟是连个说话的人都没有，一时动了恻隐之心，“若是方姑娘还要在京城逗留，我家里空房还有几间……”
“虽是亲戚故去，但京城还有其他亲友，万万不敢再烦难夫人！”沈悦没想到朱夫人竟是这般古道热肠，不禁心中有愧，慌忙站起身来深深万福道谢，末了又诚恳地说道，“李阁老乃是当朝重臣，也不知道有多少人盯着，若是因为我让哪个御史有了误会，小女子就万死莫赎了。今日得见夫人，小女三生有幸！”
见沈悦深深行礼，态度却是大为坚决，朱夫人不觉大为意外。要是换成别人，得知她这阁老夫人愿意收留，必然求之不得，可这小丫头竟是不假思索推辞了，而且理由正大光明，确实想得周到。也不知道是何等家里教导出了这样的女儿，倒是有些意思。
