Shanglin Night Snow

The interior is brightly lit.

Shao Jingheng stood next to the imperial doctor, looking at the person on the couch who was still pale and drowsy with his eyes closed, his brows were frowned.

"Although it seems that they are all minor injuries at the moment, there is nothing wrong with it, but the official is not awake after all, so it is better to rest for a while." The imperial doctor was persuading.

Shao Jingheng shook his head: "No! You must return to the palace immediately, and you will come with me!"

Knowing that talking too much is futile, the imperial doctor silently ordered to pack the medical box.

Shao Jingheng stepped forward and was about to help the person on the couch, but he heard a soft hum and was suddenly delighted: "Your Majesty is awake? What's wrong?"

"Hmm..." Rubbing his forehead, Mu Yun prayed for a while before regaining his senses, and said in a raving voice: "Just now...the Yaobi Pavilion...is on fire?"

"Mm!" Shao Jingheng replied softly, "But there is nothing wrong now. His Majesty suffered some minor injuries, so it will be fine to go back to the palace and rest for a while."

"Back to the palace..." Mu Yunqi made a gesture to sit up, but unfortunately he raised his head and fell back on the pillow, looking distressed: "Jing Heng, I feel weak all over, dizzy and dizzy."

Smiling reassuringly at him, Shao Jingheng turned to his attendants: "Please tell me, the senior official, to order the chariots and horses to wait at the east gate of the palace. I will arrive with the official's house in a short time, and there is no need for others to follow here!"

"This..." The servant hesitated.

"Do as he says." Mu Yunqi was weak.

The waiter didn't go, Mu Yunqi was in a daze and let that person put on his clothes and shoes, and then he suddenly felt light all over his body, and when he came to his senses, his face flushed, his head quietly tilted to the side of the person's body and his eyes were closed tightly. Clinging to his neck with both hands, it may really make people think that he has passed out again.

About a quarter of an hour later, the person who was holding him slowed down: "Your Majesty, we have arrived at the east gate just now, and the carriages and horses are waiting outside."

The hands clasped behind the man's neck twitched, and Mu Yunqi opened his eyes and turned his face away, speaking hurriedly: "I... I'm better, but... I can go out by myself!"

Without dissuading him, Shao Jingheng put him down.

After the cold wind blew all the way, Mu Yunqi's consciousness gradually recovered, and the feeling of dizziness also weakened a little, but his whole body was still weak, and it was difficult to stand steadily.Fortunately, there is a moderately soft and hard human wall behind him to lean on - after changing several postures, Mu Yunqi had no choice but to appoint him, leaning almost half of his body on the latter, and the man seemed to be teaching a child to learn to walk. Wrapping around the armpit to the chest to protect him firmly, while walking slowly with his footsteps, it can be said to follow his steps.

Finally going out to get in the car, recalling that his weak state had been seen by all the courtiers, Mu Yunqi couldn't hide his annoyance, his blushing couldn't fade for a long time, so he could only try his best to think about the good: at least, this scene is not as embarrassing as before, Besides, after such a misfortune, it is a blessing among misfortunes that I still get my life back... after such a self|consolation, I gradually become more at ease.

The carriage was running smoothly, and because of the warmth in the carriage, Mu Yunqi felt a little drowsy unconsciously. He wanted to take a short break, but when he closed his eyes, his eyes were full of fire. jumping in.

"It's all right." Without asking any questions, Shao Jingheng patted the cool hand, as if comforting a frightened child.

After calming down, Mu Yunqi turned his head: "Jing Heng, talk to me."

"Hmm..." The man was surprised when he heard it at first, but after searching for a while, he said, "I don't know... how about the patch?"

Mu Yunqi was stunned, and smiled: "Very good, I can eat and sleep, and become round again in a few days." After a pause, he rubbed his brows: "Don't you ask how the fire started in Yaobi Pavilion? ?”

The man was straightforward: "I thought His Majesty didn't want to mention it for now."

Mu Yunqi smiled wryly: "I really don't want to think about it, but that love and that scene keep lingering in front of my eyes again and again, so I might as well tell it." He leaned back, changed to a more comfortable sitting position, and then said it himself.

After Shao Jingheng left Yaobi Pavilion, he fell into chaos unknowingly, and he didn't know that he was awakened by a puff of smoke a long time ago. When he opened his eyes, the surroundings were already blazing with flames. !In desperation, he thought of jumping out of the window to escape, but he managed to reach under the window, and even pushed a few windows but did not open them. Seeing that the fire was raging, he hurriedly fetched a chair nearby and smashed open the window to escape successfully. Therefore, when his forehead touched the tree trunk, he was already drowsy. Although the impact was not too severe, it was enough to make him lose his mind, and he woke up on the couch.

After hearing this, Shao Jingheng thought about it.

"Your Majesty, did you suddenly feel unwell when you were in the pavilion?" I asked after a while, but at first glance it sounded irrelevant.

Mu Yunqi tried his best to recall: "It's a good time to come here, but I'm a little tired. Since I entered the mourning hall, I was dizzy and dizzy from the incense smoke, and then I was with you in the pavilion..." Turning his eyes away: "There were some disputes, and the mood Disturbed, I calmed down after you left, I felt even more tired, and just fell into a groggy." At this point, I realized the hidden worry behind the person's words, and after a little consideration: "I have not been in good spirits for the past two days, it is not It’s not getting any better here.”

"That's it..." The man hesitated to speak, and after a while he was relieved, "Fortunately, His Majesty is fine, so I can take a rest tonight and recover tomorrow."

Hearing the relief in his words, Mu Yunqi leaned back sideways, leaning half of his body against his broad shoulders, with a smile on his face: "Jing Heng, it seems that I haven't brought a patch to the west courtyard for some days to find Buzheng to play, tomorrow how?"

"Your Majesty is here, the house is full of splendor! After only tonight, I think it's better for Your Majesty to rest for a while before going out."

As far as this is concerned, it didn't sound wrong at the time, and Mu Yunqi was only trying to cheer up at that time, because he had no interest in the past and future and was unable to think about it, so he made it ordinary.It wasn't until I woke up the next day that I realized the implication of these words. Looking back carefully, I was even more shocked to realize that the fire last night was unusual!

First of all, the incense, Mu Yunqi was consciously awake when he entered the Yaobi Pavilion, why did he become drowsy after a short time inside?Besides, the interval between Shao Jingheng's departure and the fire starting was no more than a quarter of an hour. Even if the piece of incense that Mu Yunqi cut off fell on the ground and remained alive, it was absolutely impossible to cause such a fire in a short time unless he was in a coma. He accidentally knocked over the candle and ignited the curtain, but this was impossible - because he clearly remembered that when he was choked awake by the thick smoke, the first thing he saw was the bright light on the desk!In addition, those few windows that cannot be opened...

Sighing on his forehead, he finally understood: the man obviously expected that this fire would inevitably push his Shao family to the forefront... Sighing secretly, he told his left and right: "Xuan Zhao Yude come to see you."...

Before I knew it, another few days passed.

It was getting dusk, and in the west courtyard of the Shao family, Huang Gou Buzheng was lying alone in the sunset, licking the fur on his chest boredly, the shadow of the dog behind him was drawn long by the sunlight, his dog ears drooped and stood up, collecting the words and phrases from the room .

"My little sister is really wronged by my elder brother. It is a meritorious service for my elder brother to return to Pingbei, but I don't know that it has become a crime now. Whenever there is any accident in the court, the first rumors to bear the brunt are the Shao family and elder brother. Is there any justice?" Gu Lianyou said bitterly.

Shao Jingheng took it for granted, "Since it's a rumor, why should we be afraid?"

The woman frowned: "But what if the truth cannot be found out? Elder brother is really willing to bear the unwarranted charges for a long time? Elder brother was originally a pillar of the country and a talented person in the community, but now he is suspected by the top, slandered by the bottom, and restrained everywhere. , even..." He paused, bit his lips: "In short, my little sister is worthless for my brother!"

The man shook his head: "This is a serious statement. Since there is no truth in the investigation, how can you bear the accusation?" He sipped his tea and showed his seriousness: "It is not advisable to hear the news, and besides, such rumors are obviously slanderous. Don't mention it again, or you will cause trouble!"

"This..." The woman's face turned red, and she pleaded guilty: "Little sister was angry for a while, and said something rude. From now on, I will take it as a warning and never dare to speak nonsense again!" .

Looking through the open window, there was a white cat in front of Huang Gou Buzheng at some point. Looking closely, it looked like the lion cat that he had seen that day. It had grown bigger after a while.

A cat and a dog have not met again for a long time, but they are still strangers. They looked at each other for a while, the yellow dog took two steps forward to show their affection, but the cat didn't appreciate it. The last game I couldn't finish - catch the dog's tail!

Feeling somewhat disappointed, Gu Lianyou slowly walked out of the courtyard gate.

After seeing off the guests, Shao Jingheng glanced under the window of the study, and saw that the vacant seat where he was sitting just now had already been filled.

Walking slowly, he bowed across the window: "On the way back to the palace that day, His Majesty originally said that he would bring a patch here the next day for a while, so I ordered someone to bring Buzheng here to wait for you. Five days ago, I thought His Majesty had forgotten about it."

The person in the window rested his chin on his hand, half-annoyed and half-sighed: "I wanted to come earlier, but someone advised me to rest for two more days. I listened to what he said, but I was blamed. It's no use to advance or retreat. It's really embarrassing."

Shao Jingheng smiled wryly: "At that time, I just had a premonition."

Mu Yunqi raised his eyebrows: "Premonition? Do you think I will blame you for the cause of the fire?"

"Will Your Majesty do it?" The man smiled without meaning.

Uncompromising, Mu Yunqi turned his gaze back to the case, and chanted softly:

"In March, the sky is full of frost and snow, and the peaches and plums in front of the frontier are blooming.

In the morning, the plains are surrounded by mist, and in the mountains, the mountains are surrounded by evening clouds.

The geese stay in the lonely city at sunset, and the wind urges the Qiang flute to be golden.

Yumen painting corners give birth to empty dreams, and the flowers fall in another spring of the Ming Dynasty. "

Looking up, "Jing Heng remembers the northwest?"

The corner of the man's mouth turned into embarrassment: "Your Majesty laughed at the graffiti." Turning around and entering the door, he seemed to sigh with emotion: "Speaking of it, the border crossing has its advantages. The scenery is different, the human nature is open-minded, and there is no external disturbance. concentrate."

"However, because of this, everything is done vigorously, and it is difficult to hear different opinions afterwards, so it is difficult to know when you have offended others!" Mu Yunqi sighed softly, obviously pointing to something: "Yuhou Shiqian, the capital of the Huben army, was killed by you when he fled. Tang Tinghui, the prefect of Liangzhou, lost the city and committed suicide, does Jing Heng still remember such things?"

The man frowned and thought for a moment, calmly: "I remember that Shi Qian was very happy. He defied the military order and took risks to lead the defeat without authorization, so he was dealt with by the military law; Afraid of words."

Mu Yunqi nodded: "That's good. Now there are people in the court who want to impeach you, but with your words, I will order you to investigate thoroughly, so that I can clarify the truth and clear you."

The man thanked him, but suddenly changed his words: "Speaking of thoroughly investigating the previous case, the Yaohua Palace fire incident, has the truth come to light now?"

Mu Yunqi shook his head: "This case has not been clarified yet! But it's coming soon. I ordered Zhao Yude to find out the truth within five days, and today is the deadline."

The other person was surprised to hear this, and blurted out: "Then Your Majesty still..."

"Do you still dare to come here to meet you?" Mu Yunqi answered with a sly smile in his eyes.

Dazed when he was young, Shao Jingheng bowed his head: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust!"

Without answering, Mu Yunqi turned to look out the window.Under the old tree in the courtyard, the yellow dog squinted and squatted in the shadow of the setting sun, and the round paws of the lion and cat scratched the back of the neck once and for all, looking like a childhood sweetheart.

"Jing Heng, have you ever trusted me?" The person under the window sighed as if in a daze.

The listener was groaning, when he suddenly heard a knock on the door outside.

"Go and open the door, it's Zhao Yude." Mu Yunqi looked back, and the look of sadness in his brows had faded: "I thought that this truth is also very important to you, so I asked Zhao Yude to come here to report."
