Bronze Sparrow Spring Deep

Ever since Ning Qingru agreed to leave the palace with him, Shen Yanzhi really never had a good night's sleep again, tossing and turning, waking up every night with a sweaty pillow towel.Suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were dark, the surroundings were quiet and silent, the dark wind entered the cold window, it was extremely cold, and he subconsciously wrapped the quilt tightly, only then did he remember that Shu Yi was staying at his house again with Xie Mu, seeing that he was sleeping soundly, Not daring to wake up, just curled up silently——

But he didn't want Shuyi to wake up slowly when he woke up, turned over and stretched out his arms to embrace him, his voice hoarse, "Why did you wake up? A nightmare?"

Shen Yanzhi was noncommittal, moved his body obediently, and listened to Shu Yi and said, "Is it always like this recently? No wonder you don't have energy during the day, can you drink the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor on time?"

"En", Shen Yanzhi replied softly, "I didn't miss a single meal."

The prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor is to soothe the nerves, but he has a heart disease, and he needs heart medicine for heart disease. Naturally, he knows where drinking medicine can cure it?Shen Yanzhi raised his eyes to look at Shuyi, the medicine was in front of him, but whether he would give it or not was another matter.

"Then let the imperial doctor come to see me tomorrow, it won't work if you keep procrastinating like this."

Feeling Shuyi's arms tightened again, Shen Yanzhi smiled invisibly, "Got it, it's late at night, go to sleep quickly."

He didn't hear Shuyi's response, and raised his eyes again, only to feel that Shuyi's breathing gradually became steady, perhaps he had already fallen asleep.Sighing deeply, he stretched out his arms to embrace the past, buried his head in his chest, remained silent for a while, opened and closed his mouth several times, and finally mustered up the courage to say in a muffled voice,

"Shuyi...do you like me?"

……no answer.

He asked again, "Do you only like me?"

Both nervous and glad there was no answer.

The summer night was cool and hot, even though there were ice cubes, it was hard to dissipate the heat in my heart, let alone the two of them hugging each other tightly.But this was Shen Yanzhi's first good night's sleep these days, and he closed his eyes again, feeling the ups and downs of the breathing of the person in front of him, inexplicably at ease, until dawn.

Sending Ning Qingru out of the palace is difficult or easy, most of the guards in the palace recognize him, and it would be too risky to pretend to be him and go out of the palace, so Shen Yanzhi can only find someone with a good figure and Ning Qing from the palace. Qing Ru was a similar servant, and ordered him to wear a mask and pretend to be a mute to follow him into the palace.

The guards at the palace gate changed every shift every three hours. Taking advantage of this loophole, they entered the palace during the first shift, disguised Ning Qingru as a servant, and followed Chun'er out of the palace. In the palace, wait for the guards to change shifts before taking the real servants out, so as to avoid the guards' interrogation.

And Shen Yanzhi himself, pretending to be an eunuch, was sitting in Yunqi Palace at this time, watching Ning Qingru come out from behind the screen after changing clothes, everything was like a dream.

Ning Qingru straightened her belt, looked up at Shen Yanzhi, hesitated to speak, Shen Yanzhi also looked at him, and smiled lightly, "If you have anything to say, just say it, but for Shuying?"

The people in the palace were sent out by Ning Qingru at the behest of Shen Yanzhi, and they probably wouldn't be able to come back within an hour or two, just like the day when Shen Yanzhi escaped a year ago, they were empty and they didn't want to hurt others.

One or two hours is enough for them to finish everything.

Ning Qingru lowered her head, and said solemnly, "If you want to leave, go as fast as you can. I am here, so why worry so much? Zijin is waiting on the carriage outside the city gate. Since she is running for her life, don't go all the way to the south of Dali. Go south, go west, you don’t have a customs clearance certificate, don’t risk going out, but the closer you are to Ningguo, the better.”

"Why?"

Shen Yanzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "If something goes wrong here and the emperor sends someone to arrest you, who would have thought that you would go all the way to the border of Ningguo? That's the safest place."

Ning Qingru was taken aback, then she came to her senses and nodded, "Thank you."

Handing the mask to him, there were almost no flaws, and Shen Yanzhi instructed again, "Remember you are a mute, and your face was burned by fire so you wore the mask. If the guard asks that you only hide behind Chun'er, she will take you safely." go out"

"Understood, thank you"

After speaking, the two of them didn't waste their words anymore. Seeing that the time for shift change was approaching and everything was ready, Ning Qingru thanked her again, and then left with Chun'er, put her hand on the door, paused, and turned her head , or decided to spit it out quickly, "You once said that Shuyi was devoted to me, but it was true but not true. He never persecuted me, and I always feel grateful in my heart, but as time goes by, even a fool can I can feel the sincerity—”

"Get out, get out!", Shen Yanzhi lowered his voice, not knowing what Ning Qingru was going to say, but he didn't want to listen.

But Ning Qingru didn't stop, but continued with a smile, "If I say that he didn't force me to do it not because of sincerity but concern, can you believe it? Since I entered the palace, he has hardly touched me. But to me, even if we are hugging each other, your name is always mentioned—"

"To shut up!"

"Back then you were disfigured and fell out of favor. Shu Yi came to my palace every day. No one dared to mention the word 'Chenghuan'. I still remember that day when I was admiring plums and playing the piano in the pavilion. I took the risk to mention you. Just went to Wende Palace?"

Shen Yanzhi's fingers were trembling, he could hardly make a fist, and he couldn't say a word. Seeing his appearance, Ning Qing shook her head with a smile, and sighed, "I know you saved me today because of your pity, and because of being an eyesore. , I used to feel sorry for you and Shu Yi, who couldn't understand people's hearts, and couldn't understand the lingering love, but until now, there is only one thank you, no more grievances, you... take care..."

Opening the door and leaving, one of Shen Yan was left in the room in a daze. Ning Qingru's words were like a bucket of cold water pouring down his head. So far, he has come to this point with no complaints or hatred, and everything in the past has drifted away like clouds, and he no longer cares about the truth and gains and losses.

But every word of this sentence came to my ears, it was like a bone scraping knife raging on every inch of flesh and blood in the whole body, and the pain penetrated into the bone. What good is the truth?Even if they know, what can it bring them?Having known Shuyi for nearly six years, he never thinks that he has done anything wrong, or that Shuyi will not admit his mistakes, lovesickness... affection...

Being confused and trapped in the heart is nothing more than letting the years smooth the edges and corners between the entanglement and pain, in exchange for staying together.

The person Shen Yanzhi arranged probably went to report Shu Yi when Ning Qingru left the city gate, Yunqi Palace?Shu Yi originally wanted to cover it with being busy with the government affairs, but when he saw the sachet that Shen Yanzhi often wore recently in the eunuch's hand, he was startled.

The moment he walked into Yunqi Palace, a familiar feeling came over his face, just like when Shen Yanzhi suddenly disappeared back then, Wende Palace was also eerily quiet that day.Shuyi probably guessed what was going on, strode to the door and pushed it open suddenly, only to hear a burst of suppressed weeping.

Stepping into the room, he closed the door smoothly, and saw Shen Yanzhi kneeling inside the moon gate, covering his face with his hands and raising his head when he heard the sound, his eyes were bloodshot, extremely tragic.

Shu Yi looked at him, frowned, and asked sharply, "Where is Ning Qingru? Why are you here?!" Seeing Shen Yanzhi lowering his head again, Shu Yi immediately realized what was going on, and his voice became a little louder , "Do you know what you're doing!"

Surprised and puzzled, he didn't believe that Ning Qing had the guts to escape, let alone that Shen Yanzhi would personally help him escape, why would Shen Yanzhi?How could Ning Qingru believe him? !

After waiting for a while, Shen Yanzhi let go of the lower lip he had been biting, and murmured, "I know..."

"Then you know the law and committed a crime?! Shen Yanzhi! You—"

"I have nothing to say!" Shen Yanzhi raised his head suddenly, with tears in his eyes again, and his voice choked up, "It was the minister who let him out of the palace, despised the majesty of the royal family, and violated the law knowingly. How the emperor wants to deal with the minister, the minister will be punished." No complaints”

Shu Yi felt baffled, "You have never had any friendship with him, why did you let him go?!"

Shen Yanzhi paused for a while, then suddenly moved and walked a few steps forward on his knees, reflected in Shu Yi's eyes, his thoughts turned, as if he knelt in the Wende Palace that day, and he staggered on his knees like needles, saying something to himself, as if Zigui's cry of blood still rings in his ears, like a drowning man seeking a hug from him helplessly...

It's been a long time since I've seen him with such a posture and such eyes, the person who should be on the top of my heart, isn't he pampering him enough?

"Do you know how long it's been since you knelt before me?"

As soon as the words were finished, Shen Yanzhi walked to his feet, suddenly stood up, put his arms around Shuyi's neck, and burst into tears, which made Shuyi unexpected.He could only hold his shoulders vainly, and there was still a bit of hatred in his words, "Are you crying? Kneel up straight, and speak clearly!"

But Shen Yanzhi just didn't let go, instead he moved forward a little bit, "For peace of mind...he entered the palace for the sake of Ningguo, so there is nothing wrong with him, no matter who the emperor cares about and loves, he will always stay in the palace. where it fends for itself.

But I don't know what the emperor is thinking. Now that I am not in the palace, it is easy to enter the palace, but it is even more difficult to stay by the emperor's side. If Ning Qing is in the palace for a day, the minister will be terrified all day. In the eyes of the minister, the minister cannot tolerate him..."

"So you let him go?" Shuyi turned cold, and pushed Shen Yanzhi away from him. He knelt on the ground without helping him, pinched his chin with one hand, and forced him to look up. Shen Yanzhi clearly saw some tenderness in his own eyes.

"You don't believe me?"

Shen Yanzhi wanted to shake his head, but he couldn't move because of Shuyi's restraint, so he could barely hold onto Shuyi's wrist, mourning, "It's my mistake to hide the truth from the emperor, but if it weren't for this, the emperor would never let him out of the palace, The old minister had no choice but to—"

"Hush—" Shu Yi interrupted him, and put his index finger against his mouth to make a silent movement, he said slowly, "I'm asking you, what are you worried about?"

Shen Yanzhi opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word, he waited for Shuyi to let go, but Shuyi seemed to insist on asking him for an answer, but whether the answer was wrong or not, how should he answer?No matter how easy it is to do, if Ning Qing hinders his mind, he must leave.

After being silent for a while, he finally opened his mouth slowly, "The minister is not happy, he has to go!"

Unexpectedly, Shu Yi was taken aback, but suddenly laughed, "Just because of this? He doesn't care about the people of Ning Kingdom, and you don't care what I think?"

Slowly let go of the hand that was pinching Shen Yan's chin, and wiped away the tears in his eyes little by little with his calloused fingertips. Most of the fire in his heart had disappeared. Seeing the pitiful look of the person in front of him lowering his head, he felt Still a child who hasn't grown up.

"Where do you think this is, come and go whenever you want?"

"I won't leave," Shen Yanzhi suddenly grabbed Shuyi's hand and pressed it against his face, "I will stay here with the emperor, and I will never leave again."

When it came to the end, he choked up again, Shu Yi really couldn't do anything with this person, he acted a little impulsively and recklessly, but he was the first-class in acting like a baby. He could only sigh deeply, and hugged him in his arms. No wonder, he clearly saw a smile on the corner of his mouth, but he didn't say a word of cruelty, and let him mess around.

Looking at the eunuch's palace uniform on Shen Yanzhi's body, Shu Yi scolded angrily, "I don't need to go to the Imperial Academy these days, this dress is pretty good, and serving me will wear you down for a few days."

Shen Yanzhi closed his eyes, speechless, and only had one thought in his mind.

——I waited for four years, waiting for a share of repentance, from now on, I will not wait any longer... What I want, I will take it myself.

The author has something to say: This chapter... forcibly whitewashed (please ignore the fact that the update is getting later and later)

It's nearing the end... I really want to clear up my feelings, I can't type a single word...

By the way, after reading the comments, many little angels wondered why Shen Yanzhi helped Ning Qingru escape, and he thought there was mostly jealousy in it.Just like a pair of male and female friends, no matter how pure the relationship between the man and his confidante is, if it affects the mood of the woman, then the existence of the bosom friend is a mistake, eh!I remember I said this when watching family dramas, hahahaha
