wise man

Chapter 18

This man was playing tricks on himself?It's really bad.

"My lord, are you making fun of me?" Yang Zhen's men squeezed hard, causing Chen Shoushi to cry out in pain: "Yang Zhen, are you rebellious?"

Yes, I will "rebel", regardless of its ancient and modern times, regardless of its status, Chen Shoushi, I like you, even if you are the Son of Heaven, the Jade Emperor, I like you.

He has never been so "presumptuous". Although he has always had the upper hand in his studies since he was a child, he is known as a school bully, but he was born in a humble and poor family, so he has always lived a low-key life.

Origin, this is a real issue, even when he is being pursued by a girl, he also clearly knows that it is just a vain scene that is divorced from reality.When it comes to reality, he's beaten back to dust.

He has never tried love, never took that step, because he is afraid that once it comes to practical issues, the frayed underwear he hides under the shiny coat will completely expose him.

When he became a civil servant, he thought that he had finally reached the "high level" in the so-called social class, at least the middle and high level. However, he found that it was not what he wanted. He was programmed by those dogmatic official documents. Lost that fresh self.

Social status and self, he wanders in such contradictions.

Until he traveled to ancient times, where he didn't know what dynasty it was, and met this man named Chen Shoushi.His arrogance and desire to control seem to represent the power that suppresses him in the modern age, while his tenderness and care induce his self that is ready to move in the modern age.

He seems to be his destiny.He fascinated him, made him accept his current identity logically, respecting him while loving him.

He couldn't tell how much the original Yang Zhen had influenced him, or if the two had completely overlapped.All he knew was that he loved him wholeheartedly.

He even imagined that if Chen Shoushi wanted him, and because of his real status, he had to marry a wife, would he be willing to just be his man-favorite?

As a modern youth, he said No, but if not, what would he do?Lost him completely?

This made him painful and entangled, but he was unwilling.He traveled from modern times, and he longed for exclusive love.He wants to break the rules of this dynasty, he wants to be his only one.

He wanted to change his fate against the sky.Although, he was not so brave before, he lived a humble and low-key life, and even learned to compromise with life.However, at this moment, he wanted to change everything.

"Chen Shoushi." He called again, this time very smoothly, with a slightly raised tone, just like the corners of his mischievous lips.

The man turned around and tapped his forehead with his fingers: "Presumptuous!" There was a bright smile in his eyes.He seemed to have suddenly discovered how interesting it was to tease his little guard.

Yang Zhen rubbed her forehead and said aggrievedly: "You ordered me to call you." Then she moved her face closer and called each other more intimately: "Chen Shoushi, Chen Shoushi..."

Suddenly, Chen Shoushi covered his mouth with his wet and warm hands, his eyes were dark, staring at Yang Zhen with dangerous eyes: "Shut up!"

Yang Zhen's heart skipped a beat. The dangerous information in Chen Shoushi's eyes... was like a wild beast seeing its prey.

He quickly stood up straight, lowered his eyes, and pursed his lips into a line.

Chen Shoushi turned his head, turned his back to Yang Zhen, and fell silent.

Yang Zhen didn't know what he was thinking, he just massaged his shoulder quietly, meticulously.He didn't have time to digest the scene just now.Go back and think about it, he told himself.

"Yang Zhen." After a while, Chen Shoushi called out.

"Yes, my lord."

"Tomorrow we will set off at [-] o'clock, you can go back and rest."

"But, my lord, you haven't..."

"I'll do the rest myself. I'll call Zhuzi to clean it up tomorrow morning. You can go."

"Yes. Good night, my lord." Yang Zhen bowed and saluted before leaving.

He didn't say a word of extra nonsense, because he felt that Chen Shoushi tonight was a little unusual, and he was afraid that he would step on a mine and blow himself up.

This man is really moody.Obviously he ordered himself to call him by his name, but when he did, he got angry again.Laugh for a while, get angry for a while, tease him for a while, and scold him for a while.

Harm his heart ups and downs with his emotions, sooner or later there will be heart problems.

Yang Zhen felt a little annoyed, and when she returned to the side courtyard, she kicked a stone and landed on the stone table in the courtyard with a "dang", which scared a person—Cuiwei.

Cuiwei was sitting there, dangling her calf in a leisurely way, almost being hit on the head by a stone, she jumped up immediately: "Little Hazel!" She shouted, "What's wrong with you!"

Yang Zhen hurriedly said, "Sorry, sorry, Miss Cuiwei, I didn't know you were here."

"I saw you as soon as you entered the courtyard. You lowered your head. What are you thinking about? You still look unhappy. Could it be that you were scolded by the master?" Cuiwei looked at him by the light of the lantern on the porch.

"No, I read it wrong." Yang Zhen changed the subject, "What are you doing here?"

"Moon admiring."

Yang Zhen looked up at the crescent moon in the sky: "It's so small, what's so good about it?"

Cuiwei said: "The air here is good, the breeze blowing on my body is very comfortable, I'm fine anyway, I'll just sit for a while."

Yang Zhen's heart skipped a beat. When he went to the capital tomorrow, his eyes were darkened and he didn't know anything.The damn ex didn't leave any information for himself.Or, if you probe this girl's tone, maybe you can get some information?

He sat down across from Cuiwei, put on a smile of "everyone loves, flowers bloom", and said, "Miss Cuiwei, since we left home, has there been any changes at home? We will return to Beijing tomorrow. Be well prepared."

"Yes, I have already reported to the master." Cuiwei held her chin, "If you want to know, I will tell you."

"Okay, okay." Yang Zhen showed great interest.

Cui smiled and said: "Our family has a very good thing."

"what's up?"

"A few days ago, the empress summoned our wife into the palace, saying that she wanted our second young master, Princess Shang."

"Second Young Master? Princess Shang? Which princess?"

"Of course it is Princess Fengyu, the eldest daughter of His Majesty the Emperor. Our second young master is eighteen, and the princess is seventeen. They are about the same age, and they are a perfect match. Besides, Princess Fengyu has liked to play with our second young master since she was a child. The two are a match made in heaven. couple."

"But our master is the young master, why didn't the palace propose a marriage for him first?"

Cui Wei glanced at him: "You are really getting more and more confused, why do you seem to be a different person, don't you remember anything at home?"

"I..." Yang Zhen felt bitter, so she had to make it up, "The master didn't say anything about it, and it's not easy for me to ask as a servant."

"Oh, that's how it is." Cuiwei said, "Isn't it true that the master is dedicated to making contributions and does not consider the personal relationship of his children at all? Earlier, His Majesty wanted to propose marriage to the master in person, but the master refused, and his attitude was quite tough. Because of this matter, the old man is angry He must be punished to face the wall and think about his mistakes, and even wrote an apology to His Majesty."

Yang Zhen thought to herself, I guessed it right.My lord stayed away from the capital just to find freedom.It's nice that he's a strong-minded, independent guy.

"Later, the master came to Changzhou County. He said that the officials in the capital are all superior and don't know the suffering of the people at all, but he wants to really do practical things for the people."

"Yes, the master cares about the common people. This is what I admire the most."

"But, master, I'm very worried."

"worry about what?"

"He is far away from the master and his wife, and only the second young master is in the family. When the second young master adopts the princess, won't he be in the limelight? I am afraid that the little prince will step down by then!"

Yang Zhen secretly said, I'd better stay in Changzhou County forever, we have more freedom here, as for the little prince, let the second young master be the one, who cares?

"Why are you still happy?" Cuiwei was a little annoyed seeing him smiling, "Aren't you worried about Master?"

"The master has his own opinion, why should we worry about him? But, thank you sister Cuiwei for caring about the master."

For a moment, Cuiwei's expression was a little uncomfortable, and a suspicious red appeared on her face.But under the moonlight, Yang Zhen didn't see clearly.

imperial capital.Hongmeng.

When Yang Zhen saw the two majestic and domineering qi on the city gate, she couldn't help suspecting that she was delusional. "To open up Hongmeng, who is the seed of love? It's all just for the love of the wind and the moon." He remembers the song in "Dream of Red Mansions" clearly.How come it is such a coincidence that this imperial capital is actually called Hongmeng?

Duan Guo Gongfu.

On the sand and on the poultry pond, it is dark, and the clouds break through the moon and the flowers play shadows.The wind is erratic, and people are quiet at first.The servant guarding the gate welcomed their young master, Chen Shoushi.

Chen Shoushi and Yang Zhen rode side by side, one white and one black, their clothes also one white and one black.Go to the gate of the mansion, rein in the horse, and be busy with the wind and dust.Chen Shoushi said: "It's worth galloping all day, we finally arrived."

The servant took the horse and led Chen Shoushi into the mansion with a lantern.Yang Zhen followed behind, making up her mind to be like Lin Daiyu when she entered Jia's mansion: "Pay attention to every step, always pay attention, and don't want to say a word easily, take an extra step", because everything here is important to him. unfamiliar.

In the high hall, Duke Duan Chen Jingting and Princess Ji Ruohua were sitting and drinking tea, and the second young master Chen Qifeng was sitting beside them.Suddenly, a servant rushed in to report: "Master, madam, the young master is back!"

Chen Jingting's face sank immediately, but Ji Ruohua was overjoyed: "Shi'er is back?"

Chen Shoushi led Yang Zhen into the hall, took two steps, stepped forward and knelt down: "My child pays homage to father and mother!"

Yang Zhen also knelt behind him.

Princess Ruohua quickly came to help the eldest son: "Son, why are you back so soon?"

Chen Qifeng came over and bowed to his elder brother: "Brother, you are back."

Yang Zhen thought, why do brothers need so much courtesy?Also called "you"?Thinking about it again, maybe the duke's house should be like this.Chen Shoushi is the elder brother and inherits the title, so the younger brother respects him more.

It's just that I don't know the names of the master, madam and the second young master at all, so I can only be confused.

Chen Shoushi stood up, seeing his father's face sinking like water, but not happy, he bowed again and said, "Father, my son..."

"What? I couldn't bear the hardships of Changzhou County, so I came back?" Chen Jingting said coldly, "I failed His Majesty's cultivation and offended Long Yan. I thought I was very capable. Why can't I stand it now?"

Chen Shoushi knelt down with a "plop".Yang Zhen felt a pain in her heart when she heard this. This kneeling, I'm afraid her knees will hurt a lot.Chen Shoushi knelt down, but he couldn't stand, so he had to kneel down.

"Father, it's not that the child can't bear it, it's just that there are some things that I want to ask His Majesty for permission."

"What face do you have to ask His Majesty?" Chen Jingting was even more angry, "Your current status is just a small county magistrate. You dare to return to Beijing without an edict or an order from the officials. You are becoming more and more arrogant. Already!"

Yang Zhen's scalp tingled when he heard it, it turned out that the adult's life at home is not easy.He also ordered himself to come back and entrust his father to play for the emperor.If I came alone, I am afraid that my leg will be broken by this master, right?

Chen Shoushi raised his head, his face was a little pale, and his expression was stubborn: "Father, I thought you would support me."

Chen Jingting wanted to reprimand his son, but Princess Ruohua quickly persuaded him: "Master, Shi'er must have worked hard all the way, let him eat first. Let's talk about things later."

Chen Jingting waved his hand: "We have already had dinner, you go back to your own courtyard to eat."

Chen Shoushi said "yes", stood up, and went out together with Yang Zhen.

Yang Zhen followed Chen Shoushi and the servants who led the way, going round and round for a long time.Duan Guogong's mansion is really too big, if he came alone, he would not be able to find Bei at all.

As soon as I looked up, I saw the word "Jinyuan", which was Chen Shoushi's yard.

"Shoushi, Jin, your lord is really a hard diamond!" A sentence of emotion floated out of Yang Zhen's mouth, and Chen Shoushi glanced at him: "What stone?"

"Oh, it's the hardest stone, called diamond." Yang Zhen explained indiscriminately, "King Kong is inherently hard, otherwise why do martial arts practitioners say 'the body of diamond is indestructible'? So this diamond is also extremely hard."

"You talk nonsense all day long!" Chen Shoushi scolded.

"The subordinate just wants to make the adults happy."

Chen Shoushi turned around and looked at him.The orange-red light reflected on his face, casting a layer of warm tones.With bright starry eyes, he patted his shoulder and said, "I'm fine."

As soon as the words fell, two servant girls rushed out, knelt down and called out: "Master, are you back?"

"Ziyan, Wisteria, get up." Chen Shoushi ordered, "Hurry up and make tea, I'm thirsty to death all the way."

"Your servant obeys!" The two ran in happily, "Come quickly, young master."
