half life slave

After finishing the sentence, everyone was shocked.Rong Yu also stared, and subconsciously looked at Xu Ziwei, seeing him half leaning against the wall, with a sad expression on his face.

The disciples shook their heads and sighed, and filed away.Rong Yu got off his horse and stepped forward to support Xu Ziwei who was already on the verge of falling.His eyes were confused, he looked for a long time, and seemed to recognize him, and then sighed, "A gentleman does not know that there is evil, but the villain An Xinyu is flawless."

Rong and Moran, Feng Min's sudden death made people feel sad and shocked, and he felt speechless. After a while, he patted Xu Ziwei on the shoulder and motioned him to go back to the room of the tribute courtyard to speak.

Gongsheng's room has always been plain, with only the simplest furnishings.Seeing the packed luggage on the table now, Rong Yu felt slightly surprised, "Xie Yuan is going back so soon?"

Xu Ziwei smiled lightly, asked him to sit down, and poured tea with him again, "You also saw that there is no place for someone to stand in the capital, so what if you don't go back?" After finishing speaking, he straightened his clothes and saluted him Said, "I didn't know the identity of the factory owner earlier, and if I was rude, I hope the factory owner Haihan."

Rong Yu smiled and comforted him and said, "It's okay, it's just a small matter. You don't want to pursue my deliberate concealment, and I am honest about it. I should thank you very much. Xie Yuan will go to Huating to work, not far from Suzhou. When he returns to Wu In the midst of this, you should forget the unpleasantness here, and let go of your mind. Lin believes that with the talent of Jie Yuan, there will be a chance to be reused by the court in the future."

Xu Ziwei shook his head lightly, with a hint of arrogance on his brows, "In the past, Mencius resigned from office and returned to his hometown. The King of Qi wanted to buy a house for Mencius in the capital and support his disciples with a salary of ten thousand bells. Then his righteousness cannot be retained. Although I want to be rich, I don’t want to do it. Xu is not talented, but he also wants to imitate the former sages. Since the court has trapped me in injustice, I don’t want to accept the humble official position of Huating. .”

Such a choice is not unexpected, Rong Yu can understand his sadness, sorrow and anger, but he is still somewhat embarrassed, and smiled reluctantly, "Then what is Jie Yuan's plan in the future?"

"Traveling all over the green mountains, sailing boats on five lakes. Freehand freehand, looking at flowers while drunk. The so-called worldly paradise is Wuzhong, with millions of gold and water from east to west." Xu Ziwei said, sighing, with a wry smile on his face, " It’s true that wealth and glory should not be forced, and if you can’t force it, you will be ashamed. I only realized this truth now, and I hope it’s not too late.”

Although he is handsome, but Rong Yu has heard earlier that his family is not rich, and he still has a widow to support, so it will be difficult to make a living only by selling calligraphy and paintings in the future.With a slight movement in his mind, he said with a smile, "I don't know if Xie Yuan brought some excellent works during this trip, can you give Lin a certain one?"

Xu Ziwei was taken aback, then he took out several sets of scrolls from his luggage and unfolded them one by one.There are landscape paintings, as well as figures of flowers and birds.He concentrated for a moment, pointing to a painting of a lady in white and light color, "If the factory master does not give up, I will give this painting to you."

Rong Yu looked intently, and in the painting was a beauty standing in the autumn wind with a fan in her hand, with fluttering clothes, staring into the distance, lowering her eyebrows and sighing softly, as if there was infinite sadness.The background of the picture is only a corner of the slope and rocks, and there are a few sparse bamboos on it. There are so many blank spaces, which makes the painting more bleak, and there is no inscription on the whole picture.

"Guess the factory owner, who is the person in this painting?" He asked with a smile.

His eyes fell on the fan, and he answered him, "I'm always afraid that the autumn festival will come, and the cool wind will take away the heat. Abandoned donations are in the box, and the kindness is in the middle. Xie Yuan painted, but Ban Jieyu?"

Xu Ziwei nodded lightly, and a desolate smile floated on the corner of his mouth.Holding the painting, I went to the desk, dipped the brush in the ink, and inscribed on the left side: "Collection of fans in autumn, why is the beauty so sad, please look at the world in detail, most of them don't chase the cold."

In the past, Ban Jieyu fell out of favor with Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty. When she saw the tuanfan that had been with her owner in the summer, but was discarded in the box in the cool autumn, she couldn't help feeling that her fate was similar to the tuanfan. The group fan song, chatting with feelings and self-injury.

The feelings and the scenes fit Xu Ziwei's current state of mind.Although he said that he was free and easy, in fact, in his heart, he probably still couldn't let go of the loneliness and anger of frustration.

Rong Yu thanked him, put away the painting, and then gave him the money.He refused to accept it in every possible way, but He Rongyu insisted again and again, so he had no choice but to accept it, bid farewell with a bit of sadness, and said that he would go south and return to Gusu immediately.

Rong Yu offered to send him to Tongzhou Ferry, but he refused, "Don't bother, I will go to Beijing alone, and I don't need anyone to see me off when I leave. If there is a destiny in the future, I hope to meet the factory master again in Wuzhong." He said His eyes darkened, and the implication was that he would never set foot in the capital again in this life.

Although there are thousands of words in my heart, at this moment, it seems that I can only say sincerely, "Jie Yuan is precious."

Xu Ziwei nodded with a smile, turned around and strode away.Standing at the entrance of Gongyuan Street, Rong Yu watched his gradually receding back, and after a long time, he was still in a daze.

Although in the years to come, he encountered similar situations time and time again, watching his friends and enemies drift away, and faded out of his life from then on, Xu Ziwei's somewhat lonely figure remained for a long time. , making him unforgettable.

Maybe it's because among all the people, he was the one who was hurt the most and the most innocent by the times.

"My lord, we'll be home soon. Don't you want to go back and have a look?" Lin Sheng knew that he was unhappy, and changed the subject, "You haven't seen Miss Fang for a few months, at least go and see her. Why don't you see me next time?" , she should complain again, I didn't bring you back with me."

Seeing his tolerance and disapproval, Lin Sheng looked at his face and persuaded, "I know you are unhappy, why go back to see the emperor in an unhappy state? Go and listen to what Miss Fang has to say, or let her tell you Sing a tune to relieve boredom, and when you feel better, it would be better for us to go back."

Knowing that Lin Sheng had good intentions, and feeling that he really should visit Fang Yu, Rong Yu ordered the others to go back to the palace first, accompanied by Lin Sheng, to the mansion that he hadn't set foot in for a long time.

Because he hadn't been here for so long, it was ridiculous that the porter and the waiters in the yard only knew Lin Sheng, but they didn't know who he was.Rong and Wuwu alarmed the crowd, waved to Lin Sheng that there is no need to tell, and went straight to the inner courtyard.

Fang Yu was playing with her pipa in the room, when she heard the sound, she suffocated when she saw it was him, her eyes suddenly showed surprise, but she didn't meet her, she still leaned against the door and slightly lowered her eyelids, looking at him lightly. Shallow smile.

"Are you passing by today on business, or are you coming back to take a look?"

Before Rong Yu could answer, Lin Sheng hurriedly said, "Since I'm passing by, I'll come to see you."

Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, as if he was reminiscing Lin Sheng's words. Half a day later, a charming smile slowly appeared on his face.

Because she lives in the east wing now, it is inconvenient to go to her room, so she only takes a rest in the upper room which has been vacant for a long time.

Along the way, Lin Sheng told her in a low voice, "My lord is not happy today, what skills do you have to make him laugh, why don't you use it quickly?"

"Then let me sing a song for you, or tell a joke. Oh," she frowned suddenly, "unfortunately, I made an agreement with the shopkeeper of Nizhen Pavilion before, and today I will go get the hairpin I ordered , if I don’t go now, that money-hungry master should sell my things to others again.”

Lin Sheng curled his lips when he heard this, "What's this worth? I'll just get it back for you. You just need to treat your lord well, relieve him of his worries and make him happy. Just wait, I'll go to Nizhen Pavilion right now, come back soon. Let me see that the adults are smiling." After saying that, he ran out in a hurry.

Only Rong Yu and Fang Yu were left in the room.She didn't speak, just brewed a small pot of tea with the montgomery flower, put it in a secret teacup and handed it to him, and said softly with a smile, "I'm using your money to buy new jewelry because I'm greedy for beauty." Bring it, you won't blame me, will you?"

Rong Yu didn't mind these things, and said with a smile, "You don't have to be bored at home all the time, you should go out for a walk more. It's almost Qingming, and people in the capital often go to the suburbs for spring, and some go to Baoguo Temple and Baiyun Temple to pray. You If you want to go, let Ah Sheng tell me, and I'll send someone to follow."

Fang Yu hummed, and asked quietly for a while, "What about you, can't you go with me?"

Rong Yu responded casually, "On the day of Qingming, the emperor will drive back to Longguan for a spring outing, and I must accompany him."

Fang Yu smiled softly, "What about weekdays? Don't you have time to go out for a stroll? Why is Ah Sheng so free, as if he can leave the palace at any time."

Rong Yu nodded, "I really don't have his freedom. He can come out just by telling me. If I go out of the palace, I have to get permission from the emperor."

Fang Yu fell silent after hearing this, eyes drooping, slightly displeased.

Rong Yu thought about what to say, and said in a warmer voice, "Fang Yu, have you thought about the future? A while ago, I asked people to find a few small business houses, all of which were clean. If you want, you may as well Pick one of them. As for your identity, there is no need to worry about it. It will never be leaked out. I can still guarantee this. If you get married, you can live a stable life. Can be relieved."

She still didn't speak, her gaze fell on an unknown place, after a long time passed, she raised her head and smiled at him, "Okay, I'll follow your orders. Anyway, you bought me back."

There was a hint of anger in these words, Rong Yu shook his head and smiled, "That's not what I mean, these things ultimately depend on your wishes, and I won't force you."

Fang Yu snorted, and changed the subject inadvertently, "Are you going back to the palace today, my lord?"

Seeing her face and nodding her head, she stood up with a smile, "Then let me sing a song for you, I haven't sung it for a long time, don't make fun of me for not singing as well as before."

But after a while, she took the pipa, plucked the strings a few times, and refilled another cup of tea for him. Just now she sat down, cleared her throat and sang: "If you don't love lovesickness in your life, you will love it, and you will hurt lovesickness."The body is like floating clouds, the heart is like flying catkins, the breath is like gossamer, there is a lingering fragrance in the air, what can I hope for a thousand gold wanderers.When does the syndrome come?When the lamp is half dim, when the moon is half bright.

She already had a gentle and delicate voice, but this Zhe Gui Ling sang with thousands of turns and lingering ups and downs.

Rong Yu could not help feeling ups and downs as he listened, not sure what she meant by singing this song at the moment, so he simply pretended to be nonchalant and drank tea, thinking that he should talk about the topic of marriage discussion more thoroughly.

Who knew it was just a song, she saw that his expression was not right, and Bolu asked angrily, "My voice is really not as good as before? Why doesn't your lord even say hello?"

Rong Yu came back to his senses, shook his head with a faint smile, suddenly felt a burst of tiredness, and said apologetically, "You can sing very well, but I don't know the rhythm very well, so I don't know how to praise you."

She half-closed her eyes, her smile was vague, and her voice was soft, "Then I'll sing another song, and your lord has to think about how to praise me while I'm singing."

After all, he played a hillside sheep with his hand. The sound of the piano sounded hazy and blurred, which made people feel a bit illusory for no reason.And with the bursts of drowsiness that suddenly hit, Rong Yu felt more caught off guard, the people and things in front of him became swaying, and his consciousness gradually faded away. He tried hard to struggle out of this blur, but he only felt Feeling weak all over, powerless.

When he still had a trace of control, he supported the table and stood up, "Help me find Ah Sheng, I should go back."

There was a sudden warmth in his arm, she was the one who supported him, but it was just a single movement, which made him even weaker to stand still, and leaned towards her unconsciously.

She slowly helped him to the side of the bed, and gently pushed him onto the bed. He turned his head and looked around, but he couldn't tell who this strange bed belonged to. He could faintly hear someone calling his name name.

In less than half a cup of tea, Rong Yu wished that all five senses would be lost, and he had no strength to open his eyes again, so he had no choice but to let himself sink into this trance, slowly ignoring people and things.
