The winter in the palace seemed to be extremely long. Shen Huizhen hibernated in the Chonghua Palace all day long, and hardly heard anything outside the palace.

The emperor has approved his invitation to save the palace expenses, and at the same time, he has also approved to hold a Jiazi banquet in the palace on the winter solstice day, and carefully preside over all matters of the banquet.

Rumors gradually began to circulate in the palace, saying that the emperor would establish a crown prince in the spring of next year, and the candidate would naturally be the eldest son of the emperor, Prince Qin, while the king of Chu would go to the fief after his wedding and stay away from the capital.

As the end of the year approached, the influence of rumors became more and more obvious.

In previous years, officials from all walks of life would offer charcoal tributes to the two princes at the end of the year, and the amount of charcoal tributes reflected the direction of the court.According to Huaifeng, there has never been a year in Chonghua Palace where the number of charcoal tributes was so scarce.

Compared with Chonghua Palace, Jianfu Palace can be described as festive and lively.

Listening to Huaifeng's dissatisfied complaints, Shen Hui just smiled, continued to flip through the book in his hand, and told him to reward the things.

So Rong Yu looked at the jewels and playthings piled up in his room, at a loss for what to do.

Now he is an internal servant who can sit on an equal footing with Twelve Si Bingbi. He already has his own separate room and lives comfortably.

Maybe it won't be long before Shen Hui will reward a few servants to serve him.In a few years, will he take in a few godsons like other servants with status, build a house outside, move all these gold and silver properties in, and even buy a few young and beautiful girls, put As a decoration in the house?

Just look at it and be happy, those people who have been here don't all say that and do it like that.

Rong Yu couldn't imagine that scene, if one day he became like that, would he still recognize himself.

Because I was a medical student in my previous life, when I came to this world, I knew my own situation, so I immediately visited the sensitive place.What makes people desperate is that his reproductive organs are indeed gone. The only consolation in despair is that some parts are still there. At least there is no need to lose dignity when he relieves his hands. Seep out.

But in other words, because the place is still alive after all, it is not completely impossible for something to happen, so if some ministers marry wives, it may not necessarily be a display.

But after all, what he likes is a man, he used to be, and he still is.

Of course, this doesn't seem to matter anymore. He never thought of finding a lover in this world. His body and mind are already broken, and he still carries the memories of his previous life. A complete happiness, then he is willing to bear it, and he can also enjoy it.

This is the only reason and meaning that he is still trying to live.

Confused in his mind, he almost unconsciously picked up a five-color landscape phoenix-tailed statue. The glaze of the official kiln was as thick as cream, as smooth as jade, and its luster was soft, and the ripples could be seen through the moonlight.Putting down the Fengwei Zun, he picked up a night pearl the size of a longan.Subconsciously, he blew out the candle, and the brilliant light of the night pearl shone brightly in the room, like a moonlight.

After that, he sat down dejectedly, unable to distinguish between joy and sorrow.

I am just a servant, what is the point of owning these things?Or even if they are not servants, as Chuanxi said, what is the point of possessing these things?

It is true that they are all the most beautiful in the world, just like the ancient books and paintings he prefers, they can be fascinating, but compared to artifacts and curios, people are just passers-by in time, and maybe no one can really own them except the emperor.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little relieved. As an eunuch, he was destined to be alone in this life, but he could have the opportunity to see with his own eyes the majestic and magnificent palaces, the majestic capital city, and the ultimate artwork that has been accumulated for thousands of years. And the wisest group of people of this era.

Then becoming a bystander and witnessing the glory and glory of an era may be another meaning that is not too bad for him to travel through.

With a sigh of relief, he slowly lit the fire and lit the candle again.

On the day of the winter solstice, the grand banquet was held in the Qianqing Palace, and the royal family invited the elderly over 60 years old in the capital to gather together to celebrate the peace of the world and the prosperity of the world.

Because of the large number of guests, Shen Hui only brought Huaifeng to serve him.Rong Yu had a few hours of leisure. Sitting in the room, he could hear the sound of cups and cups coming from the Qianqing Palace in the distance. After concentrating for a while, he lowered his eyes and continued to focus on Su Zimei's story of the Canglang Pavilion. .

Suddenly there was a commotion and running outside the house, someone knocked on the window lattice, and when he went out to look, he saw Fan Ting, one of the maids of Chonghua Palace, standing at the door, with secret excitement in the dark complexion, whispered, "Something went wrong." .”

For a moment, Rong Yu heard his heart beating, he calmed down and asked her what happened.

"A servant brought by His Highness today broke the glazed cup bestowed on the old man Jiazi. His Highness wanted to punish him in a rage, but he knelt down suddenly, in front of Lord Long Live and the people in the hall, I begged His Majesty to spare him because of his past affection, His Majesty panicked at that time, and kept calling him nonsense, but this little servant kept talking more and more, and actually covered all the scandals in Jianfu Palace in the past. Shake it out, the Qianqing Palace was in an uproar, Zhao Yushi was so angry that he dropped his cup, it was quite lively."

Rong Yu felt that his fingertips were getting colder, and the chill outside was forcing him up layer by layer, enveloping him, he shivered, and then asked Fantine, "Where is Your Highness, how is Your Highness?"

"Your Highness only advises the emperor that this matter is related to the dignity of the clan, and we will discuss it later. It is not appropriate to be angry on such a festive day today." Fantine's tone was tinged with pleasure, but she didn't understand what Rong Yu was doing with a sad face, Nahan said, "This is a good thing for our Highness, why do you seem unhappy?"

Rong Yu shook his head hastily, and smiled quickly, but he knew that the flashing smile was probably not better than crying, "And then, how did you deal with that servant?"

Fantine didn't expect him to care about this, so he hesitated and said, "Let's hand it over to the Supervisor of Rituals first, and I'll probably die, such a shameless thing..." She widened her eyes and covered her mouth with a smile, "I I know why you are unhappy, it turns out that you are sad for the death of the rabbit!"

Trying his best to hide the sadness in his heart, Rong Yu smiled at her, trying to be as natural as his usual smile.

The scandal at the Winter Solstice Banquet had the most direct impact on Rong Yu, because it made him meet Qin Ruozhen for the first time.

Hearing that the previous banquet was about to end, he and a group of palace officials went to the gate of Qianqing, preparing to welcome Shen Hui back to the palace.

It was just in time for Shen Hui to personally send Qin Ruozhen out. Seeing this situation, everyone in the palace seemed to be a little bit excited.Rong Yu stepped forward silently, seeing Huaifeng slightly raised his eyebrows at him, with a smile in his eyes.

Sensing that Shen Hui's expression was a little tired, but he didn't know what else to do, so Rong Yu had no choice but to greet Qin Ruozhen according to the etiquette.He swept across Qin Ruozhen's face at the fastest speed. It was beautiful and soft, not gorgeous, but possessed the unique charm and gracefulness of a young girl.

A sense of cramping oppressed his heart, and Rong Yu retreated silently, into the shadows, to a place where no one could see.

He heard Shen Hui say to Qin Ruozhen, "The palace gate is about to be unlocked, so I'd better go back early. Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Stepping back slowly, he took a deep breath of the bitter air.He wanted to suppress the feeling of restlessness in his heart, even though he couldn't explain why he felt this way.

A few days later, Huaifeng brought new news, "Gao's palm print sent the subordinates, saying that the emperor personally interrogated the servant, not only about the scandals of His Royal Highness, but also that His Royal Highness usually ignores the princess and speaks slightly. If there is any disagreement, he angrily reprimanded the princess, and said that he has always been complacent in the palace recently, saying that sooner or later the position of crown prince will be his, and it will be easy to abandon the princess by then. It has been reported that the imperial physician has come to the imperial court for diagnosis and treatment."

Shen Hui half-closed his eyes and listened. After he finished speaking, he only asked, "What else did the emperor say?"

Huaifeng frowned and pondered for a while, "The people sent said that the officials have impeached His Royal Highness for disregarding the face of the royal family and acting licentiously. There are very few princes in history. The emperor read the scriptures and only asked a question. What? I don’t know what this means.”

Shen Hui waved his hand, signaling Huaifeng to go down.For a long while with his arms resting on the case, he was silent all the way.

The afternoon sun slanted in and fell on the desk to form a beam of light. Shen Hui inadvertently moved his supported arm into the halo, probably to make his body feel warmer. He said softly, "Gao Qian Praise you for being nice."

This is for the people behind. At this moment, there are only two masters and servants in the room.

Rong Yu was a little speechless, but he knew that he had to answer, "The high palm seal is too famous, and I dare not be a minister."

Shen Hui smiled, "Speaking seriously, it's overrated, and you haven't done anything. Is a servant good or not? It's not about whether you can read and write. You should know what it is." He stopped, waited and talked with He answered yes in a low voice, and then continued, "How do you think you are doing?"

There was a moment of helplessness, thinking of the usual loyal clichés of the servants, but I felt like I couldn't get out of my mouth, so I answered helplessly, "I haven't made an inch of merit, so I don't dare to say what I have done, but I am right Your Highness has no second thoughts."

"It's easy to talk about. You are loyal to Gu, but you still compare Gu to Emperor Yang. If you are not loyal, you will be compared to Jie Zhou?"

Rong Yu suffocated, knowing that he was beating himself, he knew everything he had said to Gao Qian, maybe he knew more, in short, he had nothing to hide from him.

Listening to his chaotic breathing, Rong He pressed his lips tightly, trying his best to calm down.

A ray of sunlight caressed Shen Hui's face, making him feel a little dazzling. He sat back and leaned on the chair, his voice seemed a bit illusory, "Actually, you are wrong, Yang Guang has always been loved by Dugu Jialuo, Gu is not that lucky, how can he compare with him?"

This has been his heart disease for a long time. No matter how good he is and how hard he works, it is difficult to get his father's favor. In the eyes of the emperor, he is a capable son, and at the same time, he is also a man with a deep and unpredictable mind. Defense means not getting close.

The tolerance is in the throat, and I try my best to make my voice sound as smooth as possible, "I didn't mean to compare Emperor Yang to His Highness, His Highness Wanwang forgives the sin. Your Highness said that Empress Wen loved Emperor Yang, and I thought that favoring and loving are different. It is pampering, which does not require reason, but love is rational, that is, knowing the shortcomings of the person you love, and still accepting it. Empress Wen only loved Emperor Yangdi, so she made the wrong choice. It ruined the country of the Sui Dynasty, and also ruined the life of the youngest son. I think that His Highness should not yearn for such emotions."

After saying these words, he was unable to hide the abnormal beating rhythm of his heart, so he had no choice but to let the anxiety spread from the bottom of his heart to his whole body.

Shen Hui turned around and smiled noncommittally, "Why don't I give you a chance to prove it, I want you to meet the emperor as the chief servant of the Chonghua Palace, and tell him that you once tried to rape for the King of Qin, and for the sake of Saved by Gu, let's see if the emperor will stop pampering his eldest son and instead distribute that favor to Gu, the second son who is not valued."

After finishing speaking, he showed his face and smiled, and for a moment, Rong Yu seemed to see the wind moving the lotus blossoms, "Whether you are capable or not, whether you are successful or not, this is the best time for you to be loyal to Gu."
