My lord, you have to be good

After Shen Zhian returned to the house, he rummaged through the box to find a crumpled book, which took him a lot of effort.

He leaned on the bookcase, frowning and opened the book, the paper was slightly yellowed where he touched it, which could be seen from the age.

With his fingertips lightly brushing over the ink-stained words, Shen Zhian's eyes were a little moist, he sighed, picked up his pen and added another page.

Slowly putting down the brush, he looked at his unspeakable thoughts on the page, shook his head, laughed at himself moaning without illness, and laughed at himself that he deserved to die alone.

He hunched over and sat on the edge of the bed, tearing off the book page by page, tearing up a page, staring blankly for a while, tearing up a page, staring blankly for a while, until finally the narrow bed was all crumpled up Paper.

After about a stick of incense, Li Zhouwen knocked on the door and invited Shen Zhian to have dinner.

Seeing that it was him, Shen Zhian smiled politely, "Why bother Master Li to run back and forth."

"No trouble." Li Zhouwen said, "Brother Liang is embarrassed to come, so he asked me to see if the husband is asleep. He said that even if the husband is asleep, he must wake you up."

"Oh?" Shen Zhian raised an eyebrow, "Why do you have to wake me up?"

Li Zhouwen pursed his lips and smiled, "Brother Liang said that Mr. has a problem. If you accidentally fall asleep when you don't have class in the afternoon, you will toss and turn when you go to bed at night, so he has repeatedly instructed me to pull Mr. Get out of bed."

Shen Zhian was startled when he heard this, cleared his throat uncomfortably, and said, "Master Liang has a heart, although I am tired today, I have not fallen asleep."

"That's good." Li Zhouwen narrowed his eyes and said casually, "I have known Zi Zhan for so many years, and I have never seen him care about anyone, even that so-and-so treated him like that back then. Tian still wiped his face and looked up cheerfully, I thought this kid had lost his heart a long time ago."

Shen Zhi'an pursed her lips, "Liang Zizhan and she were both my students before. It is really rare for him to not forget his roots and know how to respect his teacher."

Li Zhouwen saw that Shen Zhian deliberately misinterpreted his meaning, and sighed in a hoarse voice, "Sir, do you really only regard him as your student?"

Shen Zhian hooked his lips lightly, "Otherwise?"

"..." Li Zhouwen was at a loss for words for a moment, "It's nothing, sir, just pretend I didn't say that."

*

This meal Liang Zizhan ate was tasteless, all he could think about was how to convince Shen Zhian at night, how to make him take the initiative to ask him for kisses like he was in school today.

And Shen Xing and Li Zhouwen who were on the side were also absent-minded and had their own concerns.

After the whole scene, only Shen Zhi'an ate well, not only that, he also added two bowls of rice in one go in front of everyone.

When he was about to add the third bowl, Shen Xing grabbed Shen Zhian's hand and stopped him, "It's too late, I won't be able to sleep if I eat it at night."

Shen Zhian smiled abnormally, he pushed Shen Xing's hand away, "It's okay bro, I'm hungry."

"That can't be eaten, I have something to tell you."

Shen Zhian shook his head, "I'll talk about it when I have tea, and I'll have another bowl of rice."

Shen Xing quickly removed the basket of rice, and said impatiently, "Don't eat it first, I really have something to ask you."

Shen Zhian's hand holding the rice spoon flew away, he was stunned, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Where did you put that jade slip, father?" Shen Xing asked.

Shen Zhi'an was taken aback again, he winked at Shen Xing, signaling to Shen Xing that outsiders were around, so he should speak carefully.

Shen Xing didn't take it seriously, and asked again, and added, "I know you're safe, but it's okay to say so."

Shen Zhian's willow eyebrows were completely twisted into a ball, his teeth unconsciously bit his upper lip, and he murmured, "Brother!" He tilted his head vigorously in the direction where Li Zhouwen was sitting, and said, "There is The guests are here, let’s discuss this matter later.”

Liang Zizhan kept looking at Shen Zhian from the corner of his eye. He was used to his calm and self-possessed appearance. It was the first time he saw Shen Zhian winking. He immediately felt cute. hand.

Shen Zhi'an avoided without a trace.

Liang Zizhan lowered his eyelashes, opened Shen Zhian's hand with a serious face, and interlocked his fingers, then Shen Zhian said just now, "This matter really can't be discussed later, because Mr. Shen asked for me. ..."

Liang Zizhan met Shen Zhian's probing eyes, pursed his lips, and said pitifully, "I broke the jade slip today."

"..." Shen Zhian's eyes darkened, "Why are you so careless?" He frowned, "Didn't the Holy One find out? What will you do when you go to court tomorrow?"

Liang Zizhan shrugged helplessly, and explained the ins and outs to Shen Zhian in detail. Shen Zhian listened, thought for a while in silence, and said, "Let me see where your jade slip is broken."

Shen Xing took out the jade slip that had been stolen this morning from his bosom, handed it to Shen Zhian and said, "This one was broken by Mr. Liang, look at it, Zhi'an, is father's jade slip different in this position?"

Shen Zhian took it, looked at it several times, and his complexion became more and more ugly, "If I remember correctly, the positions are about the same." His voice trembled slightly, "They are all near the top, and they can't even be concealed. "

Li Zhouwen was in a hurry, "Then what should we do? Even if Mr. Shen lent the jade slips to Mr. Liang, it would take at most two days. He can't always call him sick, right?"

Shen Xing nodded, "Then I'm really the number one sick child in Kyoto. It's useless to be an official in the future, and I won't even be able to marry a daughter-in-law."

Li Zhouwen's face darkened when he heard that, "You want to marry a wife?"

"Who can not marry a daughter-in-law?" Shen Xing pursed his lips funny, "You are going to have a son, why? Am I not worthy to carry on the family?"

"You—" Li Zhouwen was furious at him.

Liang Zizhan cleared his throat, "Okay, stop making trouble, let's talk about serious business, let Li Zhouwen throw the cuckold aside first, okay?"

Li Zhouwen: "...you are the green hat, I don't like wearing hats in my life!"

Liang Zizhan glanced at Li Zhouwen's head, "Hey! If you don't like hats, what about Pleasant Goat?"

"...What is that?" Li Zhouwen didn't understand a word.

Liang Zizhan smiled, "It's nothing...I'm with you..."

Before saying this word, Shen Zhian hissed impatiently, "Be quiet!"

Liang Zizhan immediately shut up.

Shen Zhi'an said seriously, "A craftsman has to work at least six days, and it is very difficult to hire such a person. After all, this is a job that loses one's head. Few people are willing to take it. It will definitely take more time in the process."

Shen Xing nodded, "That's right, finding a craftsman is really a big project, and now it's imminent, once the Holy Majesty finds out, Master Liang will be guilty of deceiving the emperor, not only he will be implicated, I will also act in a play today, I'm afraid It’s going to punish me as well.”

Shen Zhian bit his lip when he heard this, his mind was spinning quickly, in a flash, he racked his brains to think of someone, and couldn't help but blurt out, "Li..."

In the middle of speaking, Shen Zhian's voice stopped abruptly.

He suddenly remembered that the person who had been in charge of the Ministry of Rites was that person's father.

There is an unwritten rule in Kyoto that the jade slips of each term of resignation must be included in the national treasury and numbered for future use.

It is said to be retained, but it is actually discarded. The newly appointed minister of the Ministry of Rites is more serious and responsible, and has strict requirements on his subordinates, but many years ago, the people in the Ministry of Rites were notorious for fishing in troubled waters. Check carefully, and don't pay attention to whether there is any damage to the corners.

That man's father had bought so many jade slips in the Ministry of Rites before, so it was inevitable that he would steal them and leave a few intact ones. When the time comes, the broken jade slips can be sold for a very high price.

As long as Liang Zizhan went to find that person, he would be able to get a jade slip that could confuse the real one.

but……

Shen Zhian suddenly felt uncomfortable.

He didn't want Liang Zizhan to go to that person.
