Those Years In Quest Of Honor Mine

Zhong Wan wore Yu She's robe loosely, sat up with effort, and leaned against the head of the bed with half of her chest exposed.

Zhong Wan's lips were red unnaturally, he licked his lips, closed his eyes and wanted to rest for a while, Yu She leaned on him again.

Zhong Wan has been dealt with by Yu She to be honest. He just said everything he could say and couldn't. He said all the good things softly. It hurts, don't believe it, don't believe it..."

Even when Yu She was on the bed, he didn't show any unnecessary expression, he still had the same deserted look as before, he asked in a deep voice, "Why don't you believe me?"

Zhong Wan was really frightened by Yu She's tossing, and whispered, "I open my mouth, you can see for yourself."

Hearing this, Yu She's throat tightened.

Zhong Wan instantly realized that he had said the wrong thing again, and said pitifully, "What are you going to do..."

Yu She said in a deep voice, "Didn't you say you want to open your mouth for me to check? Open your mouth."

Zhong Wan's face turned red again in an instant, "Don't...don't make trouble."

Yu She's expression was serious, pinching Zhong Wan's chin, he took it seriously.

Zhong Wan was very embarrassed, but Yu She was not moved by it, and said lightly, "Open it, let me see...have you eaten clean?"

Zhong Wan's face was on the verge of burning. He originally thought that being blocked by Yu She just now and being forced to say that he really liked it was shameful enough. He never expected that although Yu Xiaowang didn't talk much in this regard, he could speak every sentence well. Kill people.

Now Zhong Wan just wants to find a crack in the ground to get in. He broke away from Yu She, put his head on Yu She's chest, and said in a muffled voice, "I've eaten it all, it's already... swallowed in my stomach."

Yu She slid his hand down, pressed on Zhong Wan's stomach, and rubbed it meaningfully.

Zhong Wan curled up impatiently, "Young Master Yu, please do me a favor, even if you bought me with money, you still have to let someone rest for a while, right?"

Yu She laughed upon hearing this, "Isn't it me who bought you?"

Yu She bowed his head to kiss Zhong Wan, when a palace official came in, Yu She picked up the quilt beside him and covered Zhong Wan, took his outer robe and put it on the bed, "What's the matter?"

The palace man bowed his head and said, "Go back to my little prince, news just came from Beijing that the assassination has some clues, and it was indeed Prince Yu who did it. Now there are all the witnesses and material evidence, the Holy Majesty said, I will return to Beijing tomorrow."

Yu She looked back at Zhong Wan and finally came.

Emperor Chong'an may have wanted to wait for the news in the palace, but the twelve extra assassins were always in his heart, making him restless. Now that King Yu's assassination charge has been confirmed, he doesn't want to be in this unsafe place anymore Delayed.

The next day, everyone returned to Beijing.

When starting from the palace, Yu She was not able to accompany Zhong Wan in the carriage. According to the arrangement of the Ministry of Rites, he had to ride a horse and lead him in front of Emperor Chong'an's Luan, pretending to be a filial son for others to see, while Zhong Wan dozed off in the carriage. .

After leaving the palace and walking for an hour, a servant following outside the carriage gently patted on the window and asked, "Master Zhong, do you want some tea?"

Zhong Wanzheng was a little thirsty, he opened his eyes and beat his neck, and said to the car curtain, "Okay."

The carriage stopped, and a young eunuch climbed into the carriage holding a food box, knelt down and poured tea for Zhong Wan.

The Luan driver in front didn't stop, Zhong Wan's car couldn't stop for too long, the carriage followed slowly, Zhong Wan squinted at the little eunuch, sat up straight and smiled, "I'm sorry, I didn't know the father-in-law just now People in front of the imperial court, father-in-law doesn’t have to take care of me, I’ll just do it myself.”

That day when Emperor Chong'an called him to play chess, Zhong Wan saw the little eunuch once, he had a good memory and recognized him.

The little eunuch smiled, "Master Zhong, do you still remember the servant?"

The little eunuch poured the tea deftly, took out two plates of exquisite snacks from the food box, and said with a smile, "Master Zhong, please use."

Zhong Wan leaned on the edge of the car window and said gently, "I'm sorry to bother you, Eunuch, but I'm not thirsty yet, let's put it down for now."

The little eunuch smiled at Zhong Wan tacitly, and said softly, "Master Zhong, is it possible that he is afraid that the slave will be poisoned?"

Zhong Wan became more polite, "Eunuch is joking."

But just don't touch.

The little eunuch said helplessly, "Master Zhong is too careful, the emperor is willing to let you have something to do. After punishing the young master yesterday, the young prince went to plead for mercy, so he let you go right away? Your majesty really values ​​you."

Zhong Wan lowered his head and smiled, he knew that Emperor Chong'an would be fooled by him once, but not a second time, this time he simply skipped the interview and sent an eunuch to deliver the message.

"Look, young master, what is this?"

The little eunuch took out a book from his bosom, and offered it to Zhong Wan with both hands.

Zhong Wan didn't take it, and asked, "What is this? An imperial decree to marry the little prince?"

The little eunuch smiled and motioned Zhong Wan to look for himself, Zhong Wan picked it up, opened it, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

"The young master is still a slave, and this matter has always been a concern of the sage. As early as when you first entered Beijing, the sage, the sage had ordered the young prince Yu to bring your contract of sale and take you to The yamen went through a formality to restore your identity, but unfortunately the little prince was not happy, so it was delayed."

"Later, the Holy Majesty thought about it again, and felt that it was not enough just to go to slavery. What kind of person are you? Isn't it a pity to have such an ordinary life?"

Zhong Wan carefully looked at the imperial brush on the booklet word by word, and was in a daze.

"Speaking of this, there is an old story that Young Master Zhong may not even know about himself. This servant also accidentally heard it from the old men who served the Holy Majesty." The little eunuch laughed, "I will teach you a lesson?"

Zhong Wan knew that this was a trap, but he still nodded unwillingly as it involved the past.

"It's too early to say that, seven... oh no, it was eight years ago, when Prince Ning had an accident." The little eunuch said, "Master, you have not been imprisoned yet, and you should be protecting those young princes of Ning. Master is anxiously waiting for news at Prince Ning's Mansion, so you don't know."

"You don't know, Mr. Shi Jin Shi once knelt for seven hours outside the Holy Lord's bedchamber!"

There was a rusty taste in Zhong Wan's mouth, and he didn't want to hear any more.

But the little eunuch is still talking.

"Old Madam Fu, the emperor's master of two dynasties, what an arrogant person, our sage also gave him a teacher's ceremony back then, the emperor respected his master, and after he ascended the throne, he was exempted from the three kneeling and nine kowtow ceremonies of Old Madam Shi , but old lady Shi Fu Jiu knelt outside the hall that day, kowtowing continuously."

"Old Madam Shi said that Gui Yuan is still a half-grown child, no matter what King Ning has done, Gui Yuan must not know, old Madam Shi begs His Majesty, don't let this case implicate you, the imperial examination will be held soon You have studied hard for many years, if you go to prison, your life will be over."

"At that time, you had just passed your 16th birthday."

"Old Madam Shi seldom praises you, right? But that day, Madam Shi told the emperor that Zhong Guiyuan is a Wenqu star descending to earth, so it cannot be ignored."

"Your majesty is also in a dilemma. There is no other way. Let Mrs. Shi go back to the mansion first. The old Mrs. Fu refused to listen and just knelt there. Think about it, the people coming and going... oh."

Zhong Wan's lips trembled slightly, "You..." Zhong Wan's voice was hoarse, he pursed his lips into a line, and refused to speak out.

Zhong Wan wanted to say, that is the emperor of the two dynasties, the head of the Imperial Academy, so no one will help him?

The little eunuch sighed, "Finally, the emperor reluctantly approved the document for your arrest. After the document was passed on, Mrs. Shi fainted, and the father-in-law dared to send you out of the palace. Alas..."

The little eunuch looked at Zhong Wan, and stepped on where Zhong Wan felt pain, "Master Zhong, Mrs. Shi understands best that he will not let you go to prison even if he dies, just because he is afraid that you will spend your life doing nothing like you are today. You have wasted yourself in vain."

"Even if Young Master Yu redeemed you later with money, even if you go to slavery...it's already too late." The little eunuch regretted, "You understand the reason, don't you?"

Zhong Wan's Adam's apple twitched slightly, and said in a low voice, "Understood... the laws of this dynasty, those who violate the criminal laws will not be allowed to participate in the imperial examination for life."

"Now this opportunity has come!" The little eunuch smiled happily, "Look carefully at this document, the emperor has already made it clear, our emperor is willing to violate the laws set by the ancestors for you, and fulfill the wish of Mrs. Shi , make a decree so that you can take the imperial examination again, Master Zhong is just twenty-five years old this year, and he is still very young, even if there is a few years of delay in the middle, I think...you still have a chance to win, right?"

"Middle?" Zhong Wan sneered, and put the imperial decree on the table, "As long as I go, the champion will still be mine."

The little eunuch was taken aback for a moment, he was not very old, and he had heard all the previous events from other people. In his heart, he actually had some disdain for the notorious concubine Yu She raised in his room, but he was just a dead man.

But at this moment, he actually tasted a bit of scholarly frivolity from the corners of his brows and eyes.

Vaguely, he really had a bit of faith. If this broken sleeve enters the imperial examination again, maybe he can really make a name for himself.

The little eunuch didn't dare to think any more, and smiled attentively, "That's that."

"Master Zhong, look at it." The little eunuch opened the bookfold and said softly, "This is the imperial pen of the Holy Majesty, it only needs a seal. As long as the young master can persuade the young prince to get married smoothly, this big seal will be stamped on it." !"

The little eunuch didn't believe that Zhong Wan could bear this kind of temptation, he smiled, "You can not only be worthy of the old master's friendship, but also comfort the underground souls of relatives, what a wonderful thing."

Zhong Wan stared at Shuzhe intently, his eyes trembled slightly, and before he could speak, the little eunuch said softly, "Naturally, the young master may think that when the young prince succeeds to the throne in the future, he can also give you the same edict. but……"

The little eunuch whispered, "The Holy Majesty said that the prince is young, and he is afraid that he will be confused, so one day in the future, he will issue an edict ordering loyal officials and clan relatives to testify, ordering the prince to announce to the world when he sacrifices to heaven. Emperor's order."

Zhong Wan clenched her fingers.

The little eunuch said softly, "So only the Holy Majesty can do it for you to change the law. Master Zhong, this is not a big deal. You just need to persuade the prince a few words. Are you really not tempted?"

Zhong Wan stared at the imperial decree, the little eunuch saw the hesitation in Zhong Wan's eyes, and lowered his head in satisfaction, "The slave will go first, young master think about it carefully, old master Shi is watching you from the sky."

The little eunuch slipped out of the car, Zhong Wan looked at the memorial on the small table, lost in thought for a long time.

It would be a lie to say that you don't mind.

Back then, he also wanted to wear fresh clothes and anger horses, and see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day.

An hour later, Xuan Jing came down in place of Yu She. Yu She was already impatient. He rode his horse to the front of Zhong Wan's chariot, got off the horse and got on the chariot. When he got into the chariot, he was choked, "What are you doing? of!"

"It's okay, I accidentally burned something." Without waiting for Yu She to ask again, Zhong Wan hugged Yu She and buried her head in his neck. Yu She was stunned by this hug. , Zhong Wan sighed for a long time, "Ziyou...I really like you so much."
