Traveling through ancient times, I married an ugly brother

Xing Lie rushed all the way, and arrived at Shen's house on the eleventh day of the first lunar month.

Shen Changjun was surprised to see Xing Lie, and said jokingly: "You are not in the palace with your sweetheart, why did you come here?"

It's good not to mention it, but Xing Lie's heart began to throb again when he mentioned it, and his eyes were a little red.

"What's the matter? What happened?" Shen Changjun hurriedly asked upon seeing this.

Xing Lie lowered his head and did not speak.

"Come on, let's go into the room and talk." Xing Lie must have not eaten well and slept well during the journey. He looks thinner than when he was in the capital.

Seeing Xing Lie's appearance, the Shen family didn't dare to come forward to say hello, they just used their eyes to signal Shen Changjun to comfort him.

The two came to the living room, Jiang Liu served them a pot of tea and some pastries, then went out, leaving the space for him.

Shen Changjun poured a cup of hot tea for Xing Lie, and then said to Xing Lie: "Take a sip of hot tea first, to keep you warm. Seeing how thin you are now, you should only focus on your journey on this journey. Let's eat some pastries."

Although Xing Lie couldn't eat, he drank the tea obediently, then picked up a piece of pastry and ate it.

After eating, Xing Lie said in a hoarse voice: "The emperor knows about us."

That voice sounded extremely aggrieved, and then he told the story of the matter little by little, and then asked Shen Changjun, "What should I do."

Shen Changjun was quite surprised when he heard this, he did not expect that Zhu Xuanye would rather give up the crown prince to be with Xing Lie, and he admired him very much.

However, he looked at Xing Lie. It would not be easy for him to be with Zhu Xuanye. Even if the emperor didn't find them this time, sooner or later, Xing Lie would still leave. The position of Khan is still waiting for him to inherit, but this accident caused him to leave early.

Shen Changjun sighed, he couldn't think of any good way for a moment.

"Let's stay here first, this matter has to be discussed in the long run." Shen Changjun patted Xing Lie's shoulder and said.

"Yes." Xing Lie agreed.

In this way, Xing Lie settled down in Shen's house, and several days passed after this stay.

Seeing that after the [-]th day of the first lunar month, the Shen family was going to the capital again, Xing Lie became irritable.

But on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Amulang and Wu Fan came from the capital and brought bad news.

The Turks have made a comeback. It is said that this time they did not attack the Huns first. Because the Huns suffered the most damage in the last battle, the Turks are going to annihilate the Huns first.

Because Xing Lie could not be contacted, the news was passed to Amu Lang, hoping that he would find Xing Lie and tell him the news.

After Amulang received the news, he immediately rushed to the palace to look for him, but he heard from the prince's cousin that Xing Lie had already left.

If Xing Lie was not found, Amulang prepared to go by himself. In fact, even if he found Xing Lie, he would go with him. A Khan is his adoptive father.

Wu Fan was going back to Shenjia Village to visit his father, so Amulang had no choice but to send Wu Fan to Father Wu's place first, and then to the Hu barbarians, but he did not expect to meet Xing Lie here.

When Shen Changjun heard the news, he was surprised and said, "What? Fighting again?"

"Yes, it seems that I didn't learn enough lessons last time!" Amulang said bitterly.

Shen Changjun stroked his chin, not knowing what he was thinking about.

Xing Lie stood up anxiously, and said: "I'll go back immediately." Saying that, he was about to leave.

"Wait, why are you in a hurry again?" Shen Changjun stopped him helplessly.

Xing Lie said suspiciously: "Now we don't have any shortage of food, and I don't need to collect food here, so naturally I can go back alone."

Shen Changjun rolled his eyes at the sky, and said: "It's not for you to collect food, but I have thought of a way to let you and the prince be together in a fair and honest manner."

When Xing Lie heard this, he immediately stepped forward excitedly and grabbed Shen Changjun's shoulder and shook, "What is the method? Tell me quickly, tell me quickly."

"Stop, stop, stop, shaking makes me dizzy, and the solution is about to be shaken out." After Shen Changjun said this, Xing Lie immediately stopped and stopped, but still opened his eyes wide with anticipation. Shen Changjun couldn't bear to delay for even a second, so he spoke his mind.

Following Shen Changjun's words, Xing Lie's gloomy eyes lit up bit by bit, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

After Shen Changjun finished speaking, Xing Lie had completely pulled himself together.

"Mr. Chang, you are really my noble person. If I succeed, I will definitely repay you well." Xing Lie's mood at this moment cannot be described in words. His best friend who supports him in good times and bad times, he... "Mr. Zhang, thank you, thank you."

Xing Lie integrated all his gratitude into this thank you. He remembered the kindness of the other party in his heart. If he could really get what he wanted, he promised that he would make the Shen family's foundation last for a hundred years.

Xing Lie and A Mulang took the dry food prepared by the Shen family for them on the road and set off

Zhu Xuanye was in the palace at this time, sitting on a chair, holding a pen for correcting memorials in a daze.

Naturally, he also heard about the Turkic people coming to invade the Huns again. He thought, if Xing Lie knew about it, he would definitely return to the Hu barbarians.

Zhu Xuanye also wanted to go to the Hu barbarians to find him, but he also knew that he couldn't just leave like this.

He has thought a lot in the past few days, thinking about what will happen to him if he is not a prince, thinking about his mother and concubine, thinking about his seventh brother, he also has his responsibility.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Shen family will embark on the road to the capital again.

This time, in addition to the original team, there are three more young scholars.

They were not in a hurry, but stopped and stopped, so that they did not reach the capital until the end of February.

It was the first time for Shen Fengshan and the others to come to the capital. After arriving here, they were shocked to see streets that were many times more prosperous than Fuying County or even Jindu Prefecture.

Whether it is a woman or a young man here, they are all thin and fat, graceful and charming. If you use one word to describe it, it is beautiful, and if you use two words to describe it, it is good-looking.

"Hey, let me tell you, you guys always stare at other girls and boys to see what's going on, don't embarrass me." Shen Changjun looked helplessly at the three underage nephews, and couldn't help but take a picture of them alone. Said with one spoon.

"Uncle, we have no other ideas, let's just take a look." Shen Fenghe first said with a smile.

Although Shen Fengshan is the calmest among the three brothers, at this moment he also lowered his head in embarrassment and refused to look around.

Shen Fengmao also smiled shyly, and said embarrassedly: "Uncle, we are still young."

It made Shen Changjun laugh out loud.

The Shen family finally arrived at their destination, and a group of people jumped off the donkey cart and the hired donkey cart one after another, and entered the Shen family's yard.

"Uncle, is this where we live?"

Uncle, houses in Beijing are very expensive, right? "

"Uncle, the houses here are not much better than the houses in our village."

It may be the first time they have traveled far, so they have been in constant excitement. There have been endless problems along the way. Even when they arrive at the place now, there are still a hundred thousand whys.

"Yes, yes, this is where we will stay in the capital from now on. I will clean up the rooms for the three of you and come out later. There are still many vacant rooms here. You can find one you like. If you need anything, just say it tomorrow. When you go to the library to have a look, there are all scholars there, you can communicate with each other, and make friends if you have a destiny."

"Okay, uncle." After the three agreed, they all happily chose their own rooms and went

The next day, Shen Changjun took his three nephews to the library, and then let them take care of themselves. They could read books or read newspapers. He was in the newspaper office next door, and he would go there to find him if he had anything to do.

The three boys all nodded to show they understood.

After Shen Changjun entered the newspaper office, he saw Zhu Xuanyao sitting in the newspaper office with a sad face in a daze.

Shen Changjun was quite curious, he walked over and asked, "Xuan Yao, what are you doing, why are you so dazed? You're still frowning."

Zhu Xuanyao glanced at him, sighed, and said, "I'm worried about my fourth brother. I don't know what's wrong with him recently. He has a straight face all day long, and he has lost a lot of weight."

After Shen Changjun heard this, he knew the reason, and sighed in his heart, he and Xing Lie were both in such pain, it is really asking what love is in the world, and it teaches life and death to agree with each other", I hope Xing Lie will go well and win as soon as possible.

In the palace, Concubine Li called Zhu Xuanye to her bedroom, and said with concern: "Ye'er, what happened to you recently? How did you become so thin? Tell your mother and concubine why you are in trouble, don't worry about it alone. .”

"Mother Concubine, I'm fine, but I don't have much appetite to eat recently, so I've lost weight." Zhu Xuanye didn't want the other party to worry, so he found a reason to prevaricate.

"Is it because the cooks in the palace are not allowed to be used, and the concubine mother will replace them with another batch for you."

"No, concubine mother, don't worry, it may be that the recent season is relatively dry, so I can't eat, and it has nothing to do with others."

Concubine Li heard what he said, so she didn't ask any more questions, she turned her head to Momo and said, "Go and get that bowl of tortoise paste."

"Yes." Momo turned and went out.

"Ye'er, you have to pay more attention to your body. Seeing you like this makes my mother feel uncomfortable." As she spoke, Concubine Li actually wiped her tears.

"Concubine mother, I'm fine, don't worry about me, I know my own body well." Zhu Xuanye embraced his concubine mother and patted him on the shoulder.

At this time, Meme walked in with Guiling Paste.

Concubine Li wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said: "You don't want me to worry, so you drank this bowl of turtle paste. Look at how thin you are now."

"Yes." Zhu Xuanye agreed, then picked up the bowl of tortoise paste and drank it.

Concubine Li felt relieved when she saw that he drank the turtle paste.

"Mother and concubine, I have official business to do, so I won't accompany you." Zhu Xuanye stood up and said after drinking the tortoise paste.

Concubine Li also understood that he was busy with affairs, so she nodded and said, "Well, eat well, don't let the concubine mother worry."

"I know, the minister there has retired." Zhu Xuanye saluted the imperial concubine and left.

Concubine Li looked at his back and let out a long sigh.
