Chapter 22 1 Mindfulness of Kindness

Rong Yu turned around, pulled up his robe and sat down, Fang Lang said, "I'm just an idler who wants to take care of injustice. Since I'm a guest in Yang's mansion, I can't allow others to be rude to Mrs. Yang. You just obey Mrs. Yang." I mean, write an IOU and then borrow something."

Yang Cong choked, these few words he spoke calmly, not aggressive, but with a sonorous sound.Looking at other people, they are young, gentle and elegant, with clear and bright eyes, pointing directly at people's hearts, so they feel a little timid.After thinking about it again, it's not easy to do too much in front of outsiders, so I have to say sternly, "Okay, you wait! The house I live in is still my Yang family's house. My father took pity on you to borrow here temporarily. I don't know Anyway, I will tell my father and the elders of the clan to take back this house, and where will you go when the time comes!" After saying that, he walked away angrily.

Yang Nan looked at his back, trembling with anger.Mrs. Yang sat slumped on the chair. After a long while, she couldn't hide her emotions and cried softly.

"Mother, mother, don't be sad. We just need to move, and we won't live in his Yang family's place. From now on, we will have nothing to do with them..." Yang Nan knelt in front of Mrs. Yang to comfort her, but she couldn't hold back her sobs.

Mrs. Yang stroked his head, shook her head and sighed, "Why don't I want to leave here? They plan to devour us two alive sooner or later. How dare they do that when your father is around. But right now, we have nothing to do." Income, relying on my little dowry to live, is already stretched, how can I have spare money to buy a house."

Seeing their mother and son hugging their heads and weeping, Rong Yu suddenly became hesitant, and said to the two of them, "Madam, please don't be sad. Lin has an ancestral house that is unoccupied. If Madam doesn't mind, you can move there temporarily."

Mrs. Yang raised her eyes in surprise. She knew that for a person she met for the first time, this enthusiasm was unavoidably suspicious, so she immediately explained, "Madam, don't blame Lin for being abrupt. It's because I run around on business all the year round and I haven't been in the capital for a long time. It would be a waste to leave the house in vain. Even though I met Madam for the first time today, acquaintance is always fate, so I made such a proposal, Madam please think about it."

Mrs. Yang had stopped her tears at this time, and looked at him gratefully, "I really made you laugh just now. Thanks to your presence, our mother and son are saved from more insults. I know your kindness in my heart, and let me Thinking about it again, if the Yang family is really pressing, I have no choice but to bother Mr. for the time being." She said, calling Yang Nan to pay respects to Xie Rongyu.

Rong Yu hurriedly supported Yang Nan, and said with a smile, "Madam is too polite, please don't mind, I actually have my own selfish intentions, I just want you to look after the house for me, I would be embarrassed to do so. "

He knew that if he was not desperate, the mother and son would not accept the favor easily, so he could try his best to save their face by saying this.

Thinking that Tuo Linsheng had to do the job of finding a house, Rong Yu looked back at him, only to see that he was shaking his head, the expression on his face could only be described by four words: helplessness.

Rong Yu smiled, blinked at him, and then said to Mrs. Yang, "Lin has been bothering Madam for half a day. I have something to say, so I will leave first. I will ask Ah Sheng to ask you later. If you need anything, please let me know." Just tell him, don't be polite."

Mrs. Yang hurriedly got up, gave him a solemn blessing, Rong Yu bowed her hand in return, asked her to stay, and Yang Nan accompanied her out of the main hall.

After leaving Yang's residence, Yang Nan bowed to him again, "Mr. Lin's great kindness to our mother and son, Yang Nan is very grateful! In the future, he will definitely repay the kindness of Mr. Lin."

Rong Yu helped him up again, staring at him, he couldn't help but outline Yang Cunzhou's appearance in his mind, and now he looked at him again and found that he looked quite like his father, so he couldn't help but asked cautiously, "I just listened to Yang Cong's words, your lord..."

"Yes, I'm a prisoner." Yang Nan clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, "My father was originally the Minister of Dali Temple. He was accused and imprisoned by the emperor because of the dispute between the country and the country. The Yang family was originally from a small family. Settling down to buy a property, now that my father died, the elders and uncles in the family drove our mother and son out, and gave us nothing except the mother's dowry, and took care of my mother borrowing things twice a day. This is to force us I am willing to die! I only hate that I am too young to go out and start a career. When I grow up, I must fight for my parents and make people who bully me and look down on me look good!"

The so-called human feelings are cold and warm, and the world is hot and cold, but that's all.Rong Yu's experience in his previous life is somewhat similar to his, so he can understand it naturally, but he can only comfort him not to think too much, it is important to take good care of his mother, thinking of Yang Cunzhou, he asked him, "Your father is still in prison?"

Yang Nan shook her body slightly, her shoulders trembled uncontrollably, and cried for a long time while saying, "Father, he's dead..."

Surprised and surprised, he tried his best to hide his shock, "Dead? As far as I know, the emperor didn't order the world to sentence Mr. Yang to death. How could it be..."

Yang Nan raised his head abruptly, his face was full of tears, and there was still a trace of hatred in his eyes, "The people in the prison know that the emperor hates his father deeply, and will kill him sooner or later. Taking advantage of a snowy night, he got his father drunk and removed the charcoal. Basin, my father was...frozen to death."

Rong and his heart tightened, he hurriedly stabilized his emotions, he was about to say a few words of comfort, but he was really speechless, in the end he had no choice but to leave in a hurry, and left the Yang Mansion as if fleeing.

He didn't say a word all the way, just rode his horse to the Forbidden City, it seemed that this was the only way to temporarily vent his depression.Lin Sheng had never seen him unable to control his emotions, and he didn't dare to say much for a while.

When he was outside the Donghua Gate, Rong Yu noticed Ah Sheng's worried and frightened face, and then realized that he had never lost his composure in front of others before, so he couldn't help but sneered, "I'm sorry, I will have to trouble you to find him for me starting tomorrow." Housekeeper, settle down the mother and son of the Yang family."

"My lord, why are you being polite to me, but, have you really thought it through? They are family members of criminal officials. Although the emperor didn't ask about the crimes of their mother and child, let others know that it's not good for you to help me like this. Isn't your lord afraid of being implicated by them?" ?”

Of course Rong Yu thought about this, but seeing that their mother and child were having a hard time, she couldn't help but wanted to help, in exchange for peace of mind.

However, from Yang Nan's tone, it can also be heard that he is dissatisfied with Shen Hui. If he is asked to know who he is, he may refuse to accept any help. After thinking about it, he told Lin Sheng, "Don't worry, Instead, cover up my identity for me, choose a quieter house, and handle things more carefully, and make sure not to let the people in the palace and the Ministry of Internal Affairs know."

Seeing how persistent he was, Lin Sheng could only nod his head in agreement, without further words.

After returning to Qianqing Palace, Rong Yu had already adjusted his mood.Shen Hui leaned halfway on the soft bed, seemed to be in a good mood, saw him coming, smiled and waved to him, "There are still capable people in Guochao, this scroll of Mrs. Xiang is very beautiful, and it is not in the same way as Qiu Shizhou. "

Walking to his side, there was a roll of figure paintings on the desk. In the painting, Mrs. Zhongxiang was holding a feather fan, looking back sideways, looking back and looking forward with a lively expression.The portrait of the insider is rather quaint, with flowing long sleeves and a skirt that drags the floor, somewhat similar to the picture of Gu Kai's daughter Shi Zhen.

Rong Yu nodded and asked with a smile, "It is indeed different from Qiu Shizhou's aesthetic taste, and more ancient. I don't know where the emperor got it from?"

"There is a man named Sun Chuanxi in the imperial prison. You mentioned it a while ago, and today he sent this to me. It is said that it was made by a painter named Xiao Zhengzhong in Suzhou. He was a Jinshi in the 35th year of Shengping. It is quite famous in Wuzhong generation."

It turned out to be this person. Rong Yu recalled that he had heard Chuanxi mention that Xiao Zhengzhong had been in the Imperial Academy for a period of time, but because he had never had any ambitions, he simply resigned from his official position and sent his boat south to return to his hometown to devote himself to poetry, calligraphy and painting. .

That day, Chuanxi had praised him for his good paintings and calligraphy. It seems that after such a long time, he still has no memory of him.

"What do you think of this person? I want to call him back and serve as a painting academy to wait for an imperial edict."

Allow yourself to think about it, and think it's wrong, "I heard that Xiao Zhengzhong's calligraphy and painting were already famous when he was in the Imperial Academy, but he was pushed out by his colleagues because of his jealousy. I don’t dare to be called, and see that his paintings and calligraphy are all self-contained, free and unrestrained, such a talent, I think it is more suitable for him to stay in Wuzhong for a generation to focus on the landscape, so as to give him a wider space to display his talents.”

Shen Hui pondered for a moment, then asked back, "Does staying by my side limit talent? According to what you say, why are so many people struggling to become officials?"

Rong Yu replied with a smile, "Yes, but there are differences. Talented people can be roughly divided into two categories, those who are obsessed with mountains and rivers, or those who care about the world. Mo Nonghan is seldom interested in understanding the way of officialdom and the needs of the court. The latter has his own strategy in his chest, and never bothers to just engage in some literati ingenuity. Therefore, the two have completely different yearnings for life, and they may not be able to meet each other. If we understand each other and get together in one place, it is naturally difficult to work together harmoniously."

Seeing that Shen Hui squinted his eyes and listened earnestly, he smiled again and said, "The Emperor should have more people who have the strategy of governing the country, and even the Academy of Painting should recruit people who hate the ten continents. If we leave him among the people, maybe we can produce more masterpieces."

Shen Hui chuckled, turned his head and stared at him, "What about you? What kind of person are you?"

I asked you about this question, but in fact he didn't want to understand his position, saying that he was serving Shen Hui's servant, but Shen Hui didn't let him just take care of daily life, on the contrary, he was more and more asked to participate in the government affairs of the court , Whether there will be any errands assigned to him in the future, he doesn't know for the time being, so he can only answer cautiously, "I can't stabilize the country, I can't enjoy poetry and painting, I just serve a servant of the emperor."

Shen Hui's face darkened, "When it comes to other people talking eloquently, what they say is transparent, and when it comes to yourself, you know how to pretend to be stupid. You don't have to be too modest, I have expectations for you." After a pause, he suddenly asked , "Have you met Wang Yue?"

Rong Yu nodded and said yes.Shen Hui asked again, "What do you think of him?"

Rong Yu thought back, and responded, "I just met him once, and I thought he was loyal and resolute. If the emperor uses it well, he will be a minister who can do something."

Shen Hui frowned and said, "I want to make good use of him, but there are also people who hinder me from using him. If you go out in the future, you can go to him more often. The position of the commander-in-chief of the [-]th Regiment Battalion is extremely important. I know what kind of people are in my Imperial Guard."

Tolerant and busy, I think that once he ascends the throne, he will naturally encounter some obstacles in supporting his cronies, but I don't want him to worry about it day and night. Seeing him staring at the picture of Mrs. Xiang now, his sword eyebrows are slightly frowned, and his thoughts are far away , couldn't help but blurted out, "I see Mrs. Xiang in this painting, she looks a bit like Miss Qin."

Shen Hui didn't take it seriously, and snorted, "Mrs. Xiang is Yuan Youzhi and Li Youlan. Mr. Si didn't dare to say it. The person you compared to is very bold and hot. Those affectionate poems in the past are proof. You Didn't you help me get back a lot?"

It's okay if you don't mention this, but when you mention it, you can't help but feel embarrassed, and you can't say a word for a long time.

When Shen Hui looked back, he saw that his eyes were half-downcast, his eyelashes were covered with thick black and thick, lining his face as soft and fair as jade, and because he lowered his head, his jaw became thinner, with an indescribable elegance and gentleness .

His heart skipped a few times for no reason, and he smiled slowly, "I've read the lyrics you filled in, and it's still a bit spiritual. When I have free time, I will sing with you seriously, and there will be only you and me."
