Rebirth of the Faint Lord

Although Shen Nian called out the word "Emperor", he felt that he might be dreaming. The Emperor should be in the palace at this time, how could he appear in his room and read a book so leisurely.

Thinking this way in his heart, Shen Nian's eyes didn't move, he stared straight at the person in front of him.

Qi Junmu put down the book, and hummed lightly.

This sound shattered Shen Nian's fantasy, he was still not very clear-headed, so he murmured: "Why are you here?"

Shen Nian's voice was a little hoarse, and Qi Junmu's voice was a little harsh. He didn't answer Shen Nian's words, stood up and poured a glass of warm water to the man and said, "Drink some water first."

Shen Nian didn't move, she raised her head, her brows and eyes were in a daze and there was some suspicion, she was in a daze, without any of the cleverness of the past.

Qi Junmu looked at him, frowned, and passed the tea to Shen Nian's mouth after turning a corner.

Zhenbeihou looked down at the warm water in front of him.

He was indeed a little thirsty, and because of his illness, his mind was still muddled.In short, when he came back to his senses, he had already completely drank a glass of warm water with the emperor's slender and white hands.

Shen Nian blinked and blinked again, when the emperor put down the cup and asked if he still wanted to drink, he finally understood what happened, he asked the emperor to feed him water.

If someone finds out, don't gossip, for fear that it will bring disaster.

Shen Nian's face was hot and flustered, he wanted to stand up and plead guilty, but just as his legs landed and was about to stand up, he realized that his clothes were really inelegant.

Shen Nian really panicked this time, he wanted to stand up and retreat to the bed.

Standing and shrinking, the man didn't stand still. Fortunately, when he was about to fall, the emperor's hand firmly grabbed his arm.

Not to mention the flimsy summer clothes, because Shen Nian was sick and sweated constantly, his inner clothes were a little messy when he slept, and the clothes around his arms had been pulled up long ago.

Qi Junmu's hand was pressed against his skin, and for a moment, Shen Nian's whole body became stiff, with heat rushing towards his face, and he stood there without any other movements.

All of Shen Nian's feelings were in the place touched by the emperor, and he didn't know if it was because of the high temperature on his body, or because the emperor's palms were too hot, and the skin on his arm was hot and painful.

Qi Junmu looked at Shen Nian's flushed cheeks, and he tried his best to keep his face calm.

Speaking of which, he had never been so close to someone in his two lifetimes.Needless to say, gentleness, he has never touched a person or a heart at close range. At most, he would take her hand and put it on his face when she was uncomfortable.

Qi Junzhuo has a closer relationship with him than others, but Qi Junzhuo never loses his composure in front of him.Even if Qi Junzhuo pleaded guilty for him and went to prison to be punished, he waited for the matter to be found out.

When he picked up the person, Qi Junzhuo also walked out step by step.

Fortunately, touching Shen Nian didn't make him feel disgusted, and the flesh on Shen Nian's shoulders felt firm to the touch, which was the result of years of exercise.

The emperor thought about this, and pinched Shen Nian's shoulder uncontrollably.

Shen Nian suddenly looked up at the emperor with a look of surprise.

After realizing what he had done, Qi Junmu hurriedly coughed dryly, pressed him on the bed, and stood with his hands behind his back, "You don't feel well, so don't be too polite, just lie on the bed."

While speaking, he rubbed his hands behind him uncomfortably, and his fingertips seemed to still be hot.

Shen Nian lowered his eyes and leaned against the head of the bed, covering his body with the thin blanket. His face was still hot, but his tone was already very calm. He said softly, "Why is the emperor here? But what happened in the palace?" thing?"

"No." Qi Junmu sat on the chair beside the bed and said, "I just came to see you."

What he said is the truth, but in the current situation, it always makes people feel weird.

Qi Junmu calmed down and talked about what happened before he left the palace, and finally he said: "At that time, I thought that I could really relax only by the side of Marquis Zhenbei, so I came out of the palace to see you..."

The emperor stopped talking as he spoke, always feeling that it was strange to say such words on this occasion.

Hearing Qi Junmu's words, Shen Nian's heart beat violently again, but he said with a smile without changing his expression: "As a result, my minister was sick, and he didn't go out to meet him in person. The emperor didn't blame my minister for his etiquette." It's not a week, it's a blessing from God."

As soon as Shen Nian opened his mouth, the emperor found the feeling of the two of them getting along in the past, and the strange feeling just now disappeared.

He also said with a smile: "You are sick, and I came here without saying hello in advance. In the final analysis, it is also my fault. I blame you for what you did."

The heat on Shen Nian's face has almost dissipated, only the earlobes are still a little red, when he smiles, he is as warm as jade, the hair on his forehead and the clothes on his body are a little messy, very different from the serious clothes he used to wear.

In addition, it looks a little weak due to human illness, and it looks a different kind of fragile and beautiful.

The emperor was the same as in the past, his person was as cold as frost, and when he occasionally smiled like that, it was like thousands of flowers blooming.

Neither of them spoke again, and the atmosphere was not awkward.

Not long after, there was a light knock on the door, and Ruan Jiqing's voice sounded, he said: "Your Majesty, the porridge is ready, do you need to bring it in now?"

The voices of the two did not deliberately suppress, Ruan Jiqing faintly heard the voices of the two outside, he did not move at that time, he needed to choose a good timing.

Now the timing is right, the people inside are no longer talking, and it's time for him to appear.

Qi Junmu raised his voice slightly and said, "Come in."

Ruan Jiqing came in with the porridge with a smile on his face, and when he saw Shen Nian leaning on the bed, he said with a distressed face: "Master Hou, I haven't seen you for a few days and you have lost weight. I heard from your servants in the yard that , you haven't eaten much in the past two days, so the emperor ordered people to cook porridge."

Shen Nian who spoke in a few words was slightly sour in his heart, and he hesitated when he wanted to stay away from the emperor's heart.

At this moment, Qi Junmu stood up and said, "Ruan Jiqing, you wash up for Marquis Zhenbei, and let him eat hot food."

Ruan Jiqing was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the emperor irregularly.

Shen Nian hurriedly refused: "Your Majesty, I don't dare, I will do it myself." Ruan Jiqing is the emperor's close body, except for the Queen Mother, who in Daqi would dare to order him around?

If the word spread, didn't he intend to spy on the emperor's throne?Even if he doesn't want to die at that time, others will have to arrange some crimes for him to kill him.

"Just forget about your soft-handed and soft-footed appearance now." Qi Junmu said lightly: "Ruan Jiqing is by my side to serve you personally. He knows the importance and can serve you well."

Ruan Jiqing is used to watching people's faces, so he hurriedly said: "Master Hou, the emperor is concerned about you. You don't know that there is no one in this yard to serve you except slaves. When the emperor first came, you The servants in the yard are very idle, without any respect. You are sick, Lord Hou, but they don’t care at all. The emperor was angry at that time. No, they are still kneeling in the yard, waiting for you After waking up, I will lose my hair."

Ruan Jiqing's words were true and false, but his tone was extremely sincere.

Qi Junmu was indeed a little angry when he asked those people to kneel in the yard to reflect.Apart from Shen Nian's illness, it was more because someone wanted to take the opportunity of serving tea to get close to the emperor.

It's just that Ruan Jiqing is not saying that they are unruly when they are serving tea, and they are shy and winking while serving tea, unless they are blind and can't see what dreams they are having.I don't know if it's because I've read too many folk tales, and I'm thinking of turning a girl into a concubine.

If the emperor really loves beauty, all the maids in the palace are trained, who can't serve the emperor?At that time, Ruan Jiqing thought to himself, some people really dare to daydream, it is really imaginative.

The queen dare not have such a beautiful dream now.

Qi Junmu is the emperor, he holds the power of life and death in the world, but this is the Zhenbei Hou Mansion after all, and the servants are Shen Nian, he did not impose any other excessive punishment on those people.

Qi Junmu didn't stop Ruan Jiqing from rambling, he walked out while Shen Nian was in a daze and couldn't speak.

Zhenbeihou's mansion is very poor, and the courtyard where Shen Nian lives is also the same, it is not comparable to any palace in the palace.From the surrounding scenery, it can be seen that the owner of the yard is a neglected person, or doesn't put his mind on it at all.

For a moment, Qi Junmu suddenly wanted to understand why Shen Nian left so gracefully in his previous life.

He didn't make any achievements in the court, and he was suspected and guarded by himself. He didn't care about the Shen family. After learning about the messy things about Wen and Shen Qing, he chose to leave completely.

When he returned to Beijing, he was vigorous and vigorous, and when he left Beijing, he was chic and decisive.

This life has been restrained by him from the very beginning, if there is no accident, he will not be able to leave the capital.

The emperor was thinking wildly outside the door, Shen Nian inside the room did not really ask Ruan Jiqing to help him change his clothes.

He asked Ruan Jiqing to wait in the outer room, while he changed his clothes as quickly as possible, and then washed up.

When he was drinking the porridge, it was still a little hot, but he finished it quickly.

Seeing his flustered look, Ruan Jiqing smiled and said, "Master Hou, this porridge is very hot, please slow down."

"The emperor is outside, how can a subject let the emperor wait." Shen Nian said vaguely with porridge in his mouth, "I can't rely on the emperor's concern to act unscrupulously."

Looking at him, Ruan Jiqing rarely said a thoughtful word: "It's really rare for Lord Hou to understand these things. This servant has been with the emperor for so many years, and it's the first time he has seen the emperor take a person so seriously. Listen Said that Lord Hou was ill, the emperor even announced that Imperial Physician Bai came from the palace, and now Imperial Physician Bai is brewing medicine."

Speaking of this, he paused slightly and said: "It's not just Lord Hou, there are also the Queen Mother, Empress, Prince Jin, and Princess Fuhua in the palace, but Lord Hou is the only courtier. Lord Hou can see clearly, and the emperor is sure of it." It is gratifying."

After hearing his words, Shen Nian drank the porridge without slowing down, but she didn't say anything else, her mind became clearer.

Ruan Jiqing looked at him with a complicated expression.

When Shen Nian finished his porridge and went out, he saw the emperor standing in the yard and Bai Feng holding the medicine at a glance, Ruan Jiqing hurriedly stepped forward and stood beside the emperor.

Shen Nian lowered his head and walked over to salute, Qi Junmu helped him up and said, "Didn't you say that you don't need to be too polite?"

"Etiquette cannot be neglected." Shen Nian said lightly, and then led the emperor towards the study.

Qi Junmu said: "You are still sick, so I won't bother you here. When you get better, you can enter the palace as soon as possible." After speaking, he glanced at Bai Feng, whose expression did not change, and he handed the medicine to Shen Nian Wen said: "Master Hou's illness is nothing serious, the main reason is stagnation of qi and blood, just drink a few patches of medicine and it will be fine."

Shen Nian took the medicine, raised his head and drank it, his expression didn't change a bit.

Putting Yao Wan down, Shen Nian looked at the sky and said: "It's getting late, I will send the emperor back to the palace."

Qi Junmu felt that there was something wrong with his attitude, so he nodded and agreed after looking at him twice but couldn't see anything.When leaving Shen Nian's courtyard, a guard came to report that Mrs. Shen was waiting outside to come to see her.

Qi Junmu looked at Shen Nian and said, "I've been here since I came, and I haven't seen your grandmother yet."

Shen Nian was silent, Qi Junmu ordered the guards to let Mrs. Shen come in.

Mrs. Shen has always dressed plainly, and it is the same today.Seeing that the emperor was about to salute, Qi Junmu said: "There is no need to be too polite."

Because of Mrs. Shen's arrival, Qi Junmu did not return to the palace immediately, and a group of people sat in the front hall for a while.

Seeing that Mrs. Shen was Shen Nian's grandmother, Qi Junmu asked how her health was, and Mrs. Shen answered them one by one.

Mrs. Shen looked at the emperor with strange eyes, like hate but not like it, like sizing up and looking at others transparently Qi Junmu.

In fact, she really wanted to try her best to hide the complex look in her eyes, but maybe it was because of her mood, when she was too emotional, her eyes could always show emotion.

Qi Junmu raised his eyebrows slightly, he looked at Mrs. Shen and then at Shen Nian, and felt that there must be something else in the Shen family that he didn't know about.

Old Mrs. Shen also knew that she couldn't restrain herself, she stood up and said: "Your Majesty, forgive me. Your Majesty's eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to the late Emperor. When women see the Emperor, they think of the late Emperor."

Shen Nian's eyelids twitched quickly, and he took a serious look at Mrs. Shen.

Qi Junmu said with a smile, "So that's how it is."

As we all know, Shen Yi used to be Emperor Jing's companion, and when Shen's family stood in line with King Su, Shen Yi had a good relationship with Emperor Jing.Therefore, it is normal for Mrs. Yang to have met Emperor Jing.

Qi Junmu finds it interesting that Mrs. Shen mentioned this now to show that the Shen family has no resentment towards the royal family, or does she have other thoughts in it.

He thought about this in his heart, and said a few words to Mrs. Shen before standing up and leaving.

Shen Nian sent the people to the gate, there were guards all around the Zhenbeihou's mansion, and the people who watched the excitement were kept far away.

Among the crowd is Yang Jinglei, who silently protects the common people who want to see the beauty of the sky, lest they accidentally break the taboo and be caught.

Su Ren has been waiting at the door to maintain order, seeing that the emperor finally came out, he was very excited.

On this hot day, his official uniform was drenched in sweat, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat.

When Qi Junmu got into the sedan chair, he looked at Shen Nian and said, "You are still sick, go back quickly."

Shen Nian said: "This humble minister sends the emperor off."

Seeing that he was so stubborn, Qi Junmu had no choice but to sit in the sedan chair.

When the emperor's sedan chair disappeared, Shen Nian was still standing there. After an unknown period of time, the guards around him also left, so he slowly turned around and went back.

In Zhenbeihou's mansion, Mrs. Shen was sitting in the front hall, and there were no waiters around.

Shen Nian walked over and called out to his grandmother, Mrs. Shen looked at him and said: "He is the emperor, if he gets too close to the emperor, no one will end well."

Shen Nian did not raise his head, and said in a calm voice: "Grandmother, the Shen family supported King Su at the beginning, and the late emperor ascended the throne in the end. If it weren't for the old relationship between father and the late emperor, no one in the Shen family would have existed long ago."

Old Mrs. Shen trembled, and finally she got up and left without saying a word.
