half life slave

After the Lantern Festival, things in Yangzhou finally came to an end, and Rong Yu set off to return to the capital, no different from when he came, except that there was an extra person named Fang Yu.

According to his instructions, Lin Sheng sent a note from Xie An Zhonglang to Duan Xun's residence before leaving.Before that, Rong Yu had already inquired clearly that Duan Xun's eldest son loved calligraphy very much, so since he wanted to give it, he simply gave him a gift that the other party could not refuse, but he himself gritted his teeth and gave up.

Speaking of which, this post is still in the collection of foster father Gao Chun, and it was left to him when he passed away.

Lin Sheng came back with a smile on his face and talked about how Xun didn't make it in time to accept the signature at the beginning of the day. When he returned home, he happened to see his eldest son holding the signature with love, and his face became displeased.When sending Rong and the group on board, Duan Xun was still a little embarrassed, but seeing Fang Yu still in the crowd, he managed to show a little composure.

Going back and forth, in early spring, Rong Yu disembarked from the Tongzhou Ferry, and when he arrived at the place, he stood on the border of the capital with both feet, and the anxiety in his heart exploded vigorously.Originally, he wanted to get on the carriage and go back to the palace safely, but unexpectedly, the servant sent to meet him had already led a horse, and he only ordered him to return to the palace as soon as possible to pay the order and return to his order according to the emperor's word of mouth.

How big a matter has to be in such a hurry, in front of everyone, as if he can't do without him-this is also a way of showing grace, Rong Yu silently sighed, led the order to get on the horse, and dared not go all the way He rushed back to the forbidden center after a delay.

At noon, he had finished taking a shower and was about to go to Xinuange to meet Shen Hui.

Fantine was preparing refreshments in the side hall, when she saw him lift the curtain and show his head, she immediately beamed with joy, "You're back," she said, looking up and down with a smile, "Yo, I've grown taller, and I've grown up a bit, like You look more handsome than when you left, but such a good place in the south of the Yangtze River didn't make you fatter, you are still so thin, it's pitiful."

Rong Yu smiled, there was something in his heart, where did he get fat, because he asked, "Is the emperor free now?"

Fantine pouted in the direction of the main hall, "It happens that there is no one in front of you, go quickly, and have been talking about it for a while." Suddenly she lowered her voice, and asked him, "Is there anything wrong with Yangzhou? I'm not in a good mood, but today coincidentally, the mistress came and talked and laughed for a long time, and finally cleared the clouds, you should be more careful when you reply next time."

Rong Yu was stunned for a moment at the beginning, but soon he realized that the so-called master and empress refers to Miss Qin Ruozhen.

Before entering the hall, Rong Yu straightened his crown and restrained his complexion before he stepped in.The hall is burning with sinking water, and the smell is pleasant. Shen Hui is half leaning on the collapse, wearing the gown he wore when he lived in Yanju, and the black gauze corner scarf on his head. Can't stop it.

Sure enough, when he returned to the prison, he became the emperor looking down on the world again. A scene flashed in Rongyu's mind. It was the scene where he, Xiao Zhengzhong, and Xu Ziwei were talking about ancient poems and paintings together. Shen Hui with a relaxed smile on his face , chic and bright.At that time, he seemed like an ordinary refined scholar, at most he was a little arrogant with a bit of self-respect.

Can't help but make people feel a little nostalgic...

Shaking his head and getting rid of distracting thoughts, he went forward to salute and greet him, stood up and stood with his hands down, and restored the respectful manner that an imperial courtier should have.

Shen Hui looked at him leisurely, and smiled for a while, "I haven't seen you for a long time, and I feel more energetic. It seems that the new year is going well. I said that you have done a good job on this errand, and I can satisfy you with any reward you want. "

Rong Yu glanced at the smiling face, and replied sincerely, "I just want to share my worries for the emperor, and I dare not ask for rewards."

Shen Hui had expected it a long time ago, so he didn't say much. He picked up a memorial and asked while flipping through it, "You have a high opinion of Yan Ji, but not everyone in Yangzhou Mansion is satisfied with him. What are you doing now? Do you still think that he is suitable to be the transfer salt envoy?"

Rong Yu said yes, "The job of the Salt Envoy is extraordinary, and it needs someone who is fair and upright and not greedy for small gains to be competent, so I think that Yan Ji is a suitable candidate."

Shen Hui looked at him with a slight smile, "Are you so sure?" He waved to Rongyu, "I'll show you something."

Handed him the notebook he was holding in his hand, and when he looked at it, it was Yan Ji who played it years ago. The content was impeachment. The library purchased famous paintings, which disturbed the hearts of the people; even accepted bribes and committed obscene acts without permission.

After looking at it, Rong Yu had already figured it out in his heart, closed the booklet, put it on the table respectfully, and bowed his head without saying a word.

Shen Hui asked with great interest, "When you visit him, he will say that you deliberately make friends with foreign ministers. I approved you to go to Suzhou. I also know that the money for the painting is spent on your own salary. Fortunately, I know all of these. Only this last item, that skinny horse, was you still placed in the house?"

Reiterating the old saying, Rong Yu said frankly, "Yes, I can only let her live there." After a pause, he still told the truth, "She spent a total of 500 taels to redeem her body, and I have already returned it to Duan in another way." Xun. My Majesty, please enlighten me. In fact, it is not considered as accepting bribes."

"It can only be said that you are not accepting, Duan Xun is still offering bribes." Shen Hui said this, but his tone did not mean to blame, "Forget it, after reading this book, do you still have the original view of Yan Jiqi?"

Rong Yu nodded, "He didn't know that you sent a minister to make friends on purpose, and he didn't even know that you had allowed the minister to go out. Just judging from the content of his impeachment, there is nothing wrong with it. The minister thinks that maybe this is exactly what he wants to do. The benefits of being straightforward."

Shen Hui nodded slowly, playing with a string of beeswax Buddhist beads in his hand, smiled and said, "If you don't change your original intention, I will trust you. Don't stay there, I will buy you a lot of money to admire the name of the famous painting Post, submit it for my enjoyment."

Rong Yu couldn't help but also laughed, and presented Xiao Zhengzhong's calligraphy and painting, and ordered General Xu Ziwei to present him with the fan, and just wanted to joke around, when suddenly he heard a clear and soft voice from outside the Nuan Pavilion, "What are you talking about? Happy?"

The curtain was raised, Qin Ruozhen was smiling, and stood pretty at the door of the Nuan Pavilion.

Rong Yu originally thought that she had left the palace and returned home, but when he saw that she was still there, he hurriedly saluted and greeted her.Qin Ruozhen waved his hand indifferently, walked to the side of the couch to look at the painting with Shen Hui, and didn't give him a second glance when passing by him.

After looking at it for a while, Qin Ruozhen pointed to the fan and asked, "What kind of allusion is drawn on it? Why can't I understand it when I look at it strangely?"

Seeing her question, Shen Hui smiled and didn't answer, she only used her eyes to signal Rongyu to tell her the story, and when Rongyu finished speaking, she seemed to raise her eyes inadvertently, and her eyes turned faintly on his face, "It seems Rong Yu remembers these eclectic anecdotes quite clearly."

Rong Yu's body froze slightly, but he silently maintained a smile and stood respectfully.From the corner of the eye, Qin Ruozhen could see clearly that Qin Ruozhen was going to get the fan, just as Shen Hui was also reaching out to grab it, the two compartments touched each other, he grabbed her fingertips, then covered her palm with his palm, and tightly clenched her hand.

There was a blush on Qin Ruozhen's face, and he couldn't bear to break away. The two looked at each other and smiled, and there was no one else but each other in their eyes.

At this moment, it seems that there should be no other voices.

Rong Yu retreated out without a sound, and went outside, the spring breeze in March was still chilly, crisp and dry.After blowing for a long time, my face felt a little astringent, but my thoughts became more and more clear. I am afraid that in the future, the whole palace will be busy preparing for Shen Hui's wedding.

The emperor got married, and the inner court was extremely busy, especially the supervisor of ceremonies.Shen Hui didn't know when he ordered Chuanxi to go to the Inner Palace Supervisor, and incidentally ordered him to help Rong and take care of the wedding needs.

When we meet again, Rong Yu looks indifferent and congratulates him on his promotion.Chuanxi is rare to be subtle, and his tone is full of flattery, "From now on, I am yours. You told me to go east, and I will never look west. Anyway, I will help you with all my heart." Seeing Rongyu just showing a smile, he tightened his grip even more, "We grew up together, you don't know what I think? It's nothing more than wishing for more salary. After all, I'm different from you. There is still a big family to support, right? You know, I don't care about the rest at all. "

Rong Yu smiled after hearing this, and said lightly, "From now on, we will be good brothers, and I will rely on you to take care of me."

As the big wedding is approaching, the people from the Shangyi Supervisor have been holding up the gowns for a few days to be accommodated and inspected, and the emperor has to try them on before they can be formally ordered.He sent those fancy clothes with big ribbons and big belts to the Xinuang Pavilion, and watched Fantine lead the maids to dress Shen Hui up bit by bit.

The weight of Mianjiao alone weighs more than ten kilograms, it is difficult for him to control it freely, and he can also look around and look at Rong Yu who is standing in the distance, "I am trying on clothes, you look like nothing to do with yourself, even Forgot to come up to serve?"

Rong Yu was not sure whether he was deliberately picking on the thorns, so he hurriedly said that he didn't dare, and stepped forward to fix the jade belt for him, while saying, "The Ministry of Rites just sent the wedding process, wait for the emperor to look at it, and then make a decision."

Shen Hui said silently, "You read it for me, it's just that there are no omissions, those red tapes, I have a headache after reading too much, but I should send a few safe people to the Qin family to clarify the rules."

Tolerance and response is yes, but there is nothing to say for a while.Fantine dismissed the rest of the people, and said with a smile, "Long Live Lord's body is good, but it's a bit heavy. I'm afraid I'll be tired after a day of wedding. It's serious to have a good rest these few days. "

She entered the palace to serve Shen Hui since she was a child, and her words showed concern inside and out. Shen Hui nodded, but sneered, "I am the emperor, and the complicated rituals of the heavenly family can show dignity and dignity. Don't you Just talking about it, I will marry you off after I get married, and then you will know that wearing Fengguan Xiapei is not so easy."

Fantine blushed immediately and remained silent, Rong Yu was a little surprised, and blurted out to ask, "Has the Emperor suggested a marriage for Fantine?"

"It hasn't been finalized yet, but I have a few favorite candidates. One of them is her brother's subordinate. Wang Yue mentioned it to me, and her character is very reliable. In my heart, I want to promise her to Li Songyang. That talent is outstanding. In the future, Bao Buqi will be my great official in the frontier."

"I think Li Songyang is not suitable." His face and heart were not right, and he didn't care about thinking too much, "Although he is talented, he is arrogant and arrogant. In the future, I may not be able to treat my wives with respect. Fantine grew up beside the emperor and has never suffered any grievances. I think she is not suitable to marry someone with Li Songyang's temperament."

Fantine was stunned by what he said, Shen Hui looked back, looked at her face intently, smiled again, and said to Fantine, "Look how much this brother cares about you, I'm afraid you won't be able to marry well and feel wronged, What do you think of yourself?"

"Your servant can understand anything, just follow the instructions of Long Live Lord." Fantine raised her eyes to Rong Yu, gave him a grateful smile, and then said cautiously, "However, this servant also believes in what Rongyu said, and what he said is inappropriate. Thinking about it, he has his reasons."

Shen Hui remained silent, looked at the two in front of him for a while, and couldn't help joking, "I think the two of you are quite suitable, and if it's not for the servant, I will point him out to you as a match."

Rong Yu was stunned for a moment, these words were embarrassing, and he really couldn't continue.Fantine glanced at him with a frown, then looked at Shen Hui, and smiled to make fun of him, "Rong Yu has been hardworking all these years, why don't Long Live Lord love him and reward him as a farmer, so that he won't be alone The palace is too pitiful."

The so-called Caihu, also known as Dianshi, refers to the fact that the servants and maids in the palace form nominal couples, live together as partners, and comfort each other in lonely lives.At first, the inner court of Dayin strictly prohibited pairing food. Later, as the trend gradually developed and the status of servants increased, such behavior was also publicly approved by the royal family. .

It's a pity that such a form is totally inappropriate, at first hearing this, he only felt inexplicably ashamed and angry, and then suddenly became disheartened, he didn't even bother to argue, he just said in his heart, let him go.

After a while, Shen Hui said slowly, "In the palace right now, where can I find someone who is worthy of him?"

Rong and his heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but want to say a few words of gratitude, not because he praised himself, but because of this, he had no intention of giving a marriage, but just as he was about to say something, he heard him speak again, "When I see a suitable person in the future, I will give it to you. Speaking of which, you are not too young."

In an instant, it sounded like cracking thunder in my ears, and the blood in my chest surged, and I couldn't hold it back, and blurted out in anger, "The Holy Grace is merciful, and I am very grateful. It's just that I still have something to do, please allow me." The minister will take a rest tomorrow and leave the palace for one night."

Hearing his slightly abnormal tone, Shen Hui curled his mouth imperceptibly, turned his head and smiled at Fantine, "See, he can find all the vegetables he uses from me, and find them all by himself. I have never seen him so caring, wanting to go out of the palace for the night."

This is pointing him again, there is still a delicate little girl hiding in his house.

Rong Yu could tell that he didn't want to justify a single word, and simply lowered his head, for some reason, his hands hidden in his sleeves were unconsciously clenched.

However, although his hand was clenched into a fist, he still didn't know where to swing it, and where to swing it.
