My country is dead again [Rebirth]
Chapter 163
Emperor Xie Tang's interest in the autumn hunt was spoiled by the remnants of the eunuchs. Halfway through the autumn hunt, Xie Tang returned to Beijing with a mighty team, and even left in a hurry. Even if he wanted to hold a banquet for the emperor, he was rejected.
After Shen Ci bid farewell to the twittering sixth prince, he originally wanted to stay away from Pei Yunjing's gang and go back behind the Nangu officials, but Pei Yunjing sent someone to look for him, not sure if he was afraid that he would be lost or that he would cause trouble, He silently followed the soldier, Pei Yunjing came out of the carriage to look at him, said nothing, and continued to order people to move forward.
He rested on the road for one night before returning to Nangu. It was still morning, and Shen Ci didn't want to go home, so he rode straight to the barracks.
Since he was six or seven years old, he often followed Shen Che to play in the barracks of the Guards Army, where he learned to ride and shoot, and fought with others.
In his eyes, this place is much better than the outside. The people in the school and near his home always like to gossip and talk endlessly when they hear about his life experience, and there are even rumors that they don’t know where to distort the facts, but everyone still agrees. I like to spread these things, those children are also very annoying, always forcing him to do something, if he can't beat him, he will go back and sue, and even pull his parents to the door to yell, insisting that he broke his hand and leg, and asked them to pay for it, I can't wait to beat him again a meal.
At the beginning, there were quite a few sergeants who retired from the Cangzhou Army with Shen Che and came to Nangu. Their sons were all older than him, and they had already served in the army. With them, Shen Ci has been doing well in the barracks , and the people here are still easier to get along with than the people outside anyway. If you lose a fight, you won't find someone to sue, and you will come back next time.
Shen Ci familiarly ran to the riding and shooting range with a bow and arrow on his back. The guards were usually lazy, and the officers didn't bother to take care of it. The riding and shooting range was empty all the year round. place to play.
"Shen Ci!" A few teenagers who were a few years older than him were shooting arrows there. They were all sons of the guard army here. They would be serving in the army next year. Is it fun?"
Shen Ci is younger than them all, but he has the air of a boss. In fact, this group of people really can't beat him, and they have turned their fights with him long ago. With a cold face, he took the bow that he usually played with from a young man. Li took it over, and threw the slightly lighter one on his back to the other party: "You play this one."
They were all used to Shen Ci's indifference that didn't match his age, and they joked: "The one you're carrying is already heavy enough, you almost had hand cramps when you tried it for the first time, don't you remember?"
"It's boring to be light." Shen Ci glared at them, and the group of people knew to expose his shortcomings, adjusted the tension of the bowstring, put on an arrow, pulled the string and shot it at the target.
The arrow was stuck on the edge of the red heart, Shen Ci was not very satisfied, he scratched his hair irritably, and shot another arrow, which was better than the previous one, and finally put down the bow and arrow with satisfaction.
"Hey, tell me, how is Lezhou?" A young man put his shoulders on his shoulders and asked, "Isn't the autumn hunting scene very big?"
"That's it." Shen Ci still looked indifferent, "It's not very fun, no one is hunting, they are all drinking and eating meat."
"But there are many aristocratic families, right?" Another boy looked over curiously, "Didn't Your Majesty bring along many concubines? Which one is the prettiest?"
Shen Ci rolled his eyes: "I didn't see it."
"What about the others? A lady from a rich family? A princess?" The man vowed not to give up, and pulled him to continue asking, "Is there anyone as beautiful as a fairy?"
Shen Ci pushed him away and said, "I don't know."
"Then what have you been doing?" Several people didn't let him go, they were full of curiosity about the autumn hunting in Lezhou, "Is there a few people in the palace?"
A white and tender face quickly appeared in Shen Ci's mind, with peach blossom eyes always sparkling, and a clean and pure smile, he paused, and said: "See, I saw one."
The teenagers' eyes lit up immediately, and they surrounded him and shouted, "Who is who?"
"I heard that the third princess is at a good age and looks very beautiful. Didn't you see the third princess?"
"Or the fourth princess? It seems that the fourth princess is also pretty!"
Before Shen Ci could speak, they started guessing in a hurry, and Shen Ci said flatly: "A prince."
"Prince..." Everyone was a little disappointed, but immediately became curious again, "What does the prince look like?"
Shen Ci frowned and said, "Two eyes and one mouth, what else do you want to look like?"
"You are always so boring." One person said, "That's the prince, can he be like an ordinary person? Isn't he a dragon and a phoenix?"
Shen Ci thought that you still knew the word Longzhang Fengzi, so he made a "tch" and said, "It's just a kid, what is Longzhang Fengzi?"
Just now that person slapped him on the head and said: "If anyone listens to your words, you will not be punished for the crime of disrespect."
"It was originally." Shen Ci snorted, "I haven't seen the other princes, anyway, the sixth prince is just a child."
"Sixth prince..." The older boy thought for a while, "I remember that the sixth prince seems to be 11 years old this year, isn't he the same age as you? You still call him a kid?"
"He looks younger than me." Shen Ci refused to accept, "He is more than half a head shorter than me, and he talks like a baby, and looks like a baby."
Shen Ci's voice was still immature when he spoke. Everyone wanted to laugh, but they didn't dare to laugh. Thinking of your cold face, which seemed indifferent, in fact, there was still a little fat on your face. It's similar to that of the sixth prince.
"Then have you seen the emperor?"
Seeing that they had found a new point of curiosity, Shen Ci said helplessly, "No."
"The emperor puts so many women in the palace every year..." The boys of this age are not afraid of anything, they see that there is no one around, and they forget that they taught Shen Ci not to talk nonsense, so they moved closer and said in a low voice, "I always thought he had an over-indulgent face."
Shen Ci thought about it quite seriously, and said: "Not necessarily, the sixth prince is quite good-looking, his father can't be ugly, right?"
"Isn't the sixth prince's mother from the Jiaofang Division? How can a prostitute look good? Maybe the sixth prince looks like his mother."
Shen Ci's face turned cold again, and the person who spoke just now realized immediately, and hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that, I didn't mention you."
"It's okay." Shen Ci shook his head and said again, "But don't say that about the sixth prince."
"The sixth prince is pretty good-looking?" Another person grasped the point of the previous words, "How good-looking is it?"
Shen Ci recalled again: "The face is very fair, and she looks better than a girl."
Everyone laughed again, and said: "How many girls have you met, and you say that they are prettier than girls!"
"I didn't lie to you!" Shen Ci snorted, picked up his bow and arrows and left, "The girl is not as good looking as him!"
Shen Ci calculated the time, and the salary should be paid in these two days. He took Shen Che's share every month, and today he went to the Thousand Household Office to pick it up. The people in charge of paying the salary knew him. Seeing him, he smiled and said, "Hey, did you come back from Lezhou with Fifth Young Master?"
"Yes." Shen Ci responded, signed for Shen Che and received his salary, "Leave."
"Wait, Fifth Young Master is looking for you."
Shen Ci looked irritable, but he still turned around and walked in. When he reached the main room, Du Xun stopped him and said: "The commander and envoy are here, and the fifth young master is talking to someone."
"Then I'll go back first." Shen Ci became even more annoyed, turned around and wanted to leave again.
"Fifth Young Master asked you to wait." Du Xun was a little annoyed, and stopped him, "Can't you just wait?"
Shen Ci gritted his teeth and leaned against the pillars to wait. The people in the room heard voices outside, and the door opened. Pei Yunjing was indeed with a man in official uniform. Looking out, the official glanced at him , Closed the door again and went back.
The commander Si Tongzhi asked in the room: "The one outside the door looks familiar, is it Mr. Pei back then..."
Most of the officials in Suifang knew about it. Although Shen Ci was young, he still looked like Pei Yuankai. Pei Yunjing responded, "Well, it's him."
"It's so big?" Tongzhi sighed, "Do you want to keep him by your side in the future?"
"The origin of his military status is unknown. If the Pei family doesn't suppress him, he won't know how he died."
The Pei family didn't want to suppress this kind of thing. Tongzhi smiled and said, "He knows it himself, right? He's still young and maybe he doesn't understand it very well. What about in the future? Will he have that thought?"
Pei Yunjing looked at him gloomyly, and said, "What do you want to say?"
"Actually, the Pei family doesn't have to keep him."
Pei Yunjing put down his hand that wanted to refill him tea, the teapot knocked heavily on the table, and said in a deep voice, "I really don't like him, but he is still my brother."
Shen Ci waited outside the house for nearly half an hour before the door opened again, and all ordered Si Tongzhi to leave. Pei Yunjing glanced at him and said, "Come in."
Shen Ci walked in and asked, "What's the matter?"
"This year is the time for the imperial court to check the third volume of military registration. In the past two days, the Ministry of War and the commanders and envoys will come. Don't come, stay at home." Pei Yunjing didn't seem to want to talk to him, and he was not very interesting. "Don't run around without my permission."
Shen Ci didn't like his commanding tone very much, but he just frowned, nodded and said, "Oh."
Pei Yunjing was even more unhappy, and looked at him and said, "Don't look at me like that, I'd like to see who is hiding this from you, thank you."
Shen Cili didn't even want to talk to him, and said: "Yes, thank you Fifth Young Master." After saying that, he didn't want to look at Pei Yunjing any more, and quickly walked out of the Qianhu Office, got on his horse and went home.
Pushing open the door, Shen Che didn't know what happened to Lezhou, so he was a little surprised to see him come back, and said, "The autumn hunting is over so soon? Why are you back?"
"The emperor was assassinated and went back to Beijing." Shen Ci smelled the aroma of the meal, ran into the house a few steps, called "Ms. Niang", saw that there were leftovers on the table, took the bowls and chopsticks for himself and filled the meal quickly Eat up.
"Eat slowly." Ye Xinmei didn't expect him to come back suddenly. Fortunately, she was used to cooking more food, but she stood up and said, "I'll cook another dish for you."
"No need." Shen Ci grabbed her, "Enough."
"You said the emperor was assassinated?" Shen Che also sat down, "Is nothing wrong?"
"It's okay, a few remnants of the eunuchs." Shen Ci said, "No one seems to be injured."
"Is Lezhou fun?" Ye Xinmei asked with a smile, "Have you made any new friends?"
Shen Ci slowed down the speed of eating, poked the white rice, and said: "I met the sixth prince, and I hit it off."
"Who is so so?" Shen Che was taken aback, "Sixth prince? You mean the emperor's son?"
Shen Ci nodded: "Ah, yes."
"How can you still know this kind of person?" Shen Che stared at him, "We still have a chat?"
"It's an accident..." Shen Ci took two mouthfuls of rice, "The sixth prince is not favored, if he is really a big shot, he won't let me see him."
"Even if he is not favored, he is still a prince, and he is not a big shot?" Shen Che knocked on him, "What are you talking about with the sixth prince?"
Shen Ci touched the knocked head, and said: "The sixth prince said that when he goes to Jiangnan to become a vassal king, he will transfer me to Jiangnan to stay with him, and then I will take you over."
Shen Che seemed to have heard some kind of joke, and said amusedly, "I've only met a few times, who are you, and I will help you with your future? Who are you lying to?"
"He didn't lie to me!" Shen Ci was still a little bit aggrieved, "Master, just wait. After a few years, when I get a job in the army, I can go to Jiangnan!"
Shen Che looked at him like a fool, and patted him on the head: "Silly boy, do you take it seriously when the sixth prince casually says it? Did he give you any token? When you get a job in the army, how do you find it?" he goes?"
Shen Ci was a little embarrassed, and said: "He left in a hurry, he probably forgot to give me the token... But anyway, he won't lie to me, he's not that kind of person!"
"What kind of person?" Shen Che became even more amused, "You are naive."
Ye Xinmei also said: "Yes, who is the sixth prince, you will forget who you are in a few years."
"You don't believe me when I tell you, anyway, he's not that kind of person." Shen Ci didn't bother to say any more, after eating a bowl of rice, he said with firm eyes, "He will definitely keep his promise."
I will definitely come to him again, and I will take him to the south of the Yangtze River to see the peach blossoms that stretch for miles.
Xie Tang, who was frightened and returned to Beijing early, actually recovered halfway, and went back to play all the way, deliberately detoured a little far, and returned to Pingdu slowly.
Xie Ruzhuo was a little unhappy, he only went out of the palace once a year in Autumn Hunting, and he came back before he had fully enjoyed himself, and he had to be locked up in the palace all day to read and write, no one to play with him, not even to play with him. No one he spoke to.
Thinking about it this way, he drooped his brows and eyes, pursed his lips and thought: He has to escape to Jiangnan quickly, and then take that brother there, so that someone can talk to him and play with him.
The next day after returning to the palace, the princes resumed studying. Xie Ruzhuo was the first one to arrive at the Wenhua Hall every day. He had an early morning greeting with his husband, and sat in the corner. He arranged the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and took out the book. Review carefully.
There are currently four princes who are of the right age to study in the palace. The fifth prince, the seventh prince and the eighth prince all have their own companions, but Xie Ruzhuo has never had one. Tu, who would think of sending his son to such a prince who is not favored at all, and Xie Tang is also indifferent to this matter, Xie Ruzhuo has never mentioned it, and he thinks it is good to be alone.
After a stick of incense, the Fifth Prince and his companion came over talking and laughing. The whole room insisted on passing by his corner, and deliberately knocked down his desk, knocking down the inkstone that was just in the inkstone. The ground ink knocked out and stained his book.
"Ah, it's dirty, I'm sorry." The fifth prince smiled at him, tore off a jasper pendant from his waist, and threw it on his table, "Father said he wanted to be friendly with younger brothers, but I dirty your book. I will pay you a piece of jade pendant, you can’t usually get this jade pendant, I will give it to you to have a look.”
Xie Ruzhuo has always been envious of Brother Wuhuang, but he really doesn't like Brother Wuhuang. He always speaks in a weird way and likes to ridicule him. Looking at the jade pendant on the table, he didn't speak. Brother Wuhuang threw the jade pendant like Is giving him something.
"Brother Wuhuang was careless, it's okay." Xie Ruzhuo smiled and handed the jade pendant back, "Such a precious thing is still suitable for Brother Wuhuang to wear."
"That's right, you are not worthy of such a fine jade." The fifth prince snorted coldly, grabbed back the jade pendant, and left without looking back.
Xie Ruzhuo got used to it a long time ago, he didn't take it to heart at all, and continued to read the book stained with ink, he would memorize it anyway, and he could understand it even if it was dirty.
Then the Seventh Prince and the Eighth Prince also came. In order to increase the number of people in the Wenhua Hall, Xie Tang also asked several other clan members and some families of meritorious officials with titles to send their children to study together. There are more than 20 people, Xie Ruzhuo is more and more inconspicuous sitting in the corner. During the break, other people gather to chat. He will not join, and those people will not come to him. The fifth prince said "the son of a whore".
It seems that since Xie Ruzhuo can remember, he has always been far away from the bustle, no matter where he is, he is the only one, no one cares about him, no one likes him, and no one will talk to him sincerely , play games with him that he also really wants to play.
It's not that he doesn't like excitement, it's just that he has long been used to quietness.
But he has always been very open. They don't like him, and he doesn't like them either. What's the point of playing with people you don't like? Isn't it more troublesome?
Besides, when he goes to Jiangnan, he can have someone to play with him in the future.
Hmph, that elder brother is good-looking and very powerful, you people can't compare to him at all.
Today, the gentleman is talking about "Zhongni Yanju" in the "Book of Rites". This Hanlin scholar likes to point people to answer questions. Almost everyone will be clicked by him once. Just a few questions, those people did not answer. Obviously It was because he hadn’t read the book carefully, so the gentleman glanced at it and said, “Your Majesty the Sixth Highness, let’s talk about it. Why did Confucius say, ‘Rites are rituals! Husband’s rituals are so well-regulated.’”
Xie Ruzhuo had finished reading the Book of Rites a long time ago, stood up and replied fluently: "Before this sentence, Confucius said that Zi Zhang, Zi Gong, and Zi You had their own shortcomings, so Zi Gong asked how to do it right. Tell him that "ritual" is used to control the right heat. The students think that everyone has the same shortcomings as the three of them. If there are no rules and regulations, then many people will do whatever they want, which is not conducive to the stability of the country. Therefore, we must observe the rituals like saints, work hard to correct the deficiencies, and gradually approach the so-called just right, self-cultivation and family harmony, so that our family and country can be stable, and we can have rules and regulations.”
The gentleman stroked his beard in satisfaction, nodded and said: "Although His Highness the Sixth Highness is young, he has far-reaching insights, which is very good."
Xie Ruzhuo smiled, said "Excellent sir", and sat down. The fifth prince turned his head and looked at him incredulously. He ignored it, spread out the rice paper, and recorded the content of the sir's explanation.
Mr. Dangtang arranged another short article for everyone to write, and after handing it in for review, it was time to leave school, but Xie Tang, who hadn't cared about the prince's study for several months, was in the mood to come here today to have a look.
Everyone hurriedly got up to greet them, Xie Tang seemed to be in a really good mood, he asked everyone to sit down again with a smile, and asked the teacher how everyone was doing.
"I arranged an article today. Both the fifth prince and the sixth prince wrote it well. The princes of the two county kings also made great progress. The seventh prince and the eighth prince also listened carefully today, and their handwriting is much better than before."
In fact, the husband often praised Xie Ruzhuo the most. Hearing that the husband praised himself in front of his father, Xie Ruzhuo was still a little happy. Seeing his father smiling all the time, he thought: Will my father also praise him today?
The fifth prince immediately stood up and ran over to hold Xie Tang, and said affectionately: "Royal father, you said two days ago that if I come back and learn well, I will give your new square jade ruler to my son. Today, the master praised Erchen for writing a good article, is the emperor going to give it to Erchen?"
Xie Tang laughed, patted the fifth prince's head, and said: "It was originally meant to be given to you, come and get it later."
"Thank you, father!" The fifth prince rubbed Xie Tang's arm, "I will work harder, and set an example for my younger brothers, which will make father happy."
"It's good for you to think like this." Xie Tang has always liked this son very much, he is sweet-mouthed and sensible, "Besides the prince, you are the eldest in the palace now, and you really want to set an example for your younger brothers."
Seeing this, the Seventh and Eighth Princes also ran up to Xie Tang and yelled that the imperial brother had a reward and they wanted it too. Seeing it, Xie Tang was even happier, touched everyone's heads, and replied: "There are all of them, wait for them." I will choose the one I like with you five emperor brothers."
The heirs of the two county kings and several sons of the Marquis Manor went to talk to Xie Tang, and they enjoyed themselves happily. Only Xie Ruzhuo sat quietly in the corner, still far away from the hustle and bustle.
No one mentioned His Highness the Sixth Highness, and no one gave him a second look, as if he had been forgotten long ago.
Xie Ruzhuo lowered his eyes, silently packed the things on the table and put them in his bookcase, and did not go up to speak.
The excitement doesn't belong to him, so why bother to dislike him in the past?
His mother didn't like him or even hated him, and his father never gave him a second look. His brothers and sisters laughed at him, and children of the same age rejected him. Maybe he was born as a child that no one liked.
Xie Tang was surrounded by the three princes and left. Xie Ruzhuo sat for a while and asked the courtiers waiting for him at the door: "Have you inquired? Elder Brother Huang is sure to go to the Empress's place today?"
"Yes, His Royal Highness is at the empress's place, and he should come out now." The minister replied.
Xie Ruzhuo nodded, handed the book box to the courtier, and walked to the Queen's bedroom alone, passing a small garden, and heard the voice of a child, he stopped and glanced, and happened to bump into the prince Xie Ruzhang.
"I've met the elder brother Huang." Xie Ruzhuo ran over to greet Xie Ruzhang, saw him holding his son who was not yet three years old, and said with a smile, "Is the elder brother bringing Ming Ting to see the empress?"
"Yes." Xie Ruzhang looks like a weak scholar, but his appearance is breezy and bright, which makes people very comfortable, and his smile is gentle and polite, "Sixth brother just finished school?"
"En." Xie Ruzhuo saw that Xie Mingting's round face was really cute, and the skin of a child of this age was also white, like a glutinous rice dumpling, so he couldn't help pinching his face, "Mingting is so cute."
Knowing that he was praising him, Xie Mingting grinned. Xie Ruzhang asked him to call Sixth Emperor Uncle. He was still slurring his words, so he called obediently, and went to hold Xie Ruzhuo's hand. He turned around and said to his father with a smile: " Father, this uncle is the prettiest."
Xie Ruzhang patted his head amusedly, and asked, "What's the matter, sixth brother?"
"There is one thing I would like to ask Brother Huang for help." Xie Ruzhuo rubbed his ears a little embarrassedly, "I want to leave the palace as soon as possible, but I don't know where my father wants me to go...I..."
Xie Ruzhang guessed what he meant, and asked, "Is there somewhere you want to go?"
"Yes, I want to go to Jiangnan." Xie Ruzhuo bowed again respectfully, "I beg the elder brother of the emperor to help me to talk to my father."
Xie Ruzhang was a little surprised. The prince was eager to go to Jiufan later, and he didn't want to go too far away from the capital. He said, "Jiangnan? Are you going so far?"
"I like Jiangnan." Xie Ruzhuo looked up and smiled, "Brother Huang, do you think it's okay?"
"Since you really want to go, I'll help you and tell Father." Xie Ruzhang was in poor health, and actually didn't meet his younger brothers very often, but when he saw them, they were all gentle and amiable, and they always responded to requests. They liked him very much from the bottom of their hearts, "The fifth younger brother should also go to the Imperial Palace next year, and there will be fewer people in the palace."
Xie Ruzhuo was overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked him. Seeing that he was thin and thin, Xie Ruzhang also knew the reason why he wanted to go to the feudal clan so early, sighed, and asked the maid behind him to give him a bag of snacks, saying: "This is Ming Ting has already eaten a lot of the snacks given to Ming Ting by his mother just now, I won’t let him eat more, you can eat them, there are peach cakes and kidney bean rolls.”
Normally, no one would give Xie Ruzhuo anything. He said no, but the light in his eyes could not be faked. He kept staring at the package of snacks. Xie Ruzhang also touched his head and gave him the snacks: "take it."
Xie Ruzhuo was a little moved in his heart, thanked him, took the snacks and walked back to the palace from another road.
He didn't take the dim sum back to the palace, he found a hidden corner on the road, squatted down and unwrapped the dim sum, and ate it bite by bite.
Liu Yan'er didn't like him taking other people's things, and told him that they were given by others because of their pity, and would throw away those things like crazy, and beat his palms red with a ruler, not allowing him to eat.
But he is still a child after all, and he also longs for others to like him more and give him some warm kindness, but he doesn't want his mother to be angry, so he can only hide in secret and eat these snacks in the end.
Xie Ruzhuo wiped off the crumbs around his mouth, carefully wrapped up the last bit of snack, carefully hid it in his bosom, and kept it for later eating, and he could take it out to eat when his mother refused to let him eat.
Today I was praised by my husband and met my cute little nephew. Brother Huang promised to let him go to the south of the Yangtze River, and gave him a pack of snacks. The snacks are very delicious. Smiling and bouncing back to the palace.
Liu Yan'er doesn't like to light too many candles in the room, the room is always a bit dark, Xie Ruzhuo peeked in from the door, and saw her sitting on the soft couch stroking the five-stringed pipa, but she didn't pick it up to play, The eyebrows are full of sadness, and there is no feeling in my heart.
He wanted to make his mother happy, so he walked in and bowed, and said with a smile: "Mother, today, Mr. praised me for a good article. At that time, the emperor was nearby and heard it!"
Liu Yan'er looked at him indifferently, and said: "Then your father praised you?"
Xie Ruzhuo opened his mouth, then lowered his eyes in disappointment, and said in a low voice, "Father probably forgot..."
"He didn't even look at you." Liu Yan'er sneered, "Men are like this, they can't remember the woman they liked, and they can't remember their son."
Xie Ruzhuo bit his lip, carefully tugged at Liu Yan'er's sleeve, and said, "Mother Concubine, I told Eldest Brother Huang that I want to go to Jiangnan, so I will be a fan. Next year, at the latest, the year after, we will leave here and go to Jiangnan." , It's beautiful there, and the concubine will definitely like it."
Liu Yan'er lowered her head and didn't speak for a while, but she rarely spoke to him in a soft voice: "Let's go, go wherever you want, don't come back..."
Xie Ruzhuo immediately became happy again, squatted in front of the soft couch, held Liu Yan'er's hand, and said softly: "Jiangnan must be better than here, the mother and concubine will feel better there, forget all the unhappy things, and don't worry about it." You'll never see someone you don't like again."
That was the first time Liu Yan'er rubbed his head gently, letting him know that his mother would love him too.
On that day, he felt that he was the happiest person in the world, and fantasized about the unhappy years in the future.
Leaving the palace he didn't like, going to a place full of peach blossoms in spring, taking his mother to pick up the elder brother who was willing to protect him, and spending his life in obscurity but contentment.
He wants to be a flying bird, forever, forever, to leave this cage and go to the free world to watch the moon rise and the sun go down.
But he didn't know that he couldn't fly out. In this life, he never flew out of this cage again. For the rest of his life, at the end of the journey, he was still the only one in the end, and the hustle and bustle of the world would never belong to him.
The author has something to say: a few small details compared with the previous article:
1. In the ending chapter, it was written that Xiao Xie said that in order to let everyone accept that he would not marry a wife and have children, he said that the elder brother Huang was very good to him, and that he gave him a pack of dim sum in the old year was touching. Although it was written decades later, Xiao Xie Xie himself is not sure whether it is true or not, but Brother Huang really gave him a pack of dim sum, which moved him very much.
2. In Chapter 22, Xiao Xie stared blankly at a bird flying out of the palace wall in the cold palace. Maybe at that time he was just fantasizing that he was that bird, flying out of this cage forever and going to the vast world.
3. Pei Yunjing helped Xiao Shen cover up his military status as mentioned in the previous article, and it is also compared here. He is a contradictory body, jealous and conscientious at the same time, but generally speaking, he still regards Xiao Shen as his own brother in his heart , I was a bit distorted and perverted by environmental factors since I was a child, but my nature is not bad.
4. Xiao Shen said over and over again that he would not lie to me. In Chapter 19, after he knew that the sixth prince had gone to the cold palace, he also said how he could lie to me... The world is not kind, the agreement of that year finally became a young joke, forever lost in time.
Fortunately, Xiao Xie in this life finally became a bird, left the cage, and went to Jiangnan with his brother who was willing to protect him forever. For the rest of his life, he is no longer alone. He has elders who love him and a lover to accompany him , possessing the hustle and bustle of the world.I cried while writing this episode, and suddenly felt that maybe in a parallel time and space, my two cubs really existed and lived happily together. (Wipe another tear)
The next one is the sub-cp episode, it will be updated tomorrow, and it will be updated the day after tomorrow.
Seeing that more than one cutie mentioned Xiao Xie's women's clothing, I plan to write a women's clothing in the modern campus episode later, okay~

After Shen Ci bid farewell to the twittering sixth prince, he originally wanted to stay away from Pei Yunjing's gang and go back behind the Nangu officials, but Pei Yunjing sent someone to look for him, not sure if he was afraid that he would be lost or that he would cause trouble, He silently followed the soldier, Pei Yunjing came out of the carriage to look at him, said nothing, and continued to order people to move forward.
He rested on the road for one night before returning to Nangu. It was still morning, and Shen Ci didn't want to go home, so he rode straight to the barracks.
Since he was six or seven years old, he often followed Shen Che to play in the barracks of the Guards Army, where he learned to ride and shoot, and fought with others.
In his eyes, this place is much better than the outside. The people in the school and near his home always like to gossip and talk endlessly when they hear about his life experience, and there are even rumors that they don’t know where to distort the facts, but everyone still agrees. I like to spread these things, those children are also very annoying, always forcing him to do something, if he can't beat him, he will go back and sue, and even pull his parents to the door to yell, insisting that he broke his hand and leg, and asked them to pay for it, I can't wait to beat him again a meal.
At the beginning, there were quite a few sergeants who retired from the Cangzhou Army with Shen Che and came to Nangu. Their sons were all older than him, and they had already served in the army. With them, Shen Ci has been doing well in the barracks , and the people here are still easier to get along with than the people outside anyway. If you lose a fight, you won't find someone to sue, and you will come back next time.
Shen Ci familiarly ran to the riding and shooting range with a bow and arrow on his back. The guards were usually lazy, and the officers didn't bother to take care of it. The riding and shooting range was empty all the year round. place to play.
"Shen Ci!" A few teenagers who were a few years older than him were shooting arrows there. They were all sons of the guard army here. They would be serving in the army next year. Is it fun?"
Shen Ci is younger than them all, but he has the air of a boss. In fact, this group of people really can't beat him, and they have turned their fights with him long ago. With a cold face, he took the bow that he usually played with from a young man. Li took it over, and threw the slightly lighter one on his back to the other party: "You play this one."
They were all used to Shen Ci's indifference that didn't match his age, and they joked: "The one you're carrying is already heavy enough, you almost had hand cramps when you tried it for the first time, don't you remember?"
"It's boring to be light." Shen Ci glared at them, and the group of people knew to expose his shortcomings, adjusted the tension of the bowstring, put on an arrow, pulled the string and shot it at the target.
The arrow was stuck on the edge of the red heart, Shen Ci was not very satisfied, he scratched his hair irritably, and shot another arrow, which was better than the previous one, and finally put down the bow and arrow with satisfaction.
"Hey, tell me, how is Lezhou?" A young man put his shoulders on his shoulders and asked, "Isn't the autumn hunting scene very big?"
"That's it." Shen Ci still looked indifferent, "It's not very fun, no one is hunting, they are all drinking and eating meat."
"But there are many aristocratic families, right?" Another boy looked over curiously, "Didn't Your Majesty bring along many concubines? Which one is the prettiest?"
Shen Ci rolled his eyes: "I didn't see it."
"What about the others? A lady from a rich family? A princess?" The man vowed not to give up, and pulled him to continue asking, "Is there anyone as beautiful as a fairy?"
Shen Ci pushed him away and said, "I don't know."
"Then what have you been doing?" Several people didn't let him go, they were full of curiosity about the autumn hunting in Lezhou, "Is there a few people in the palace?"
A white and tender face quickly appeared in Shen Ci's mind, with peach blossom eyes always sparkling, and a clean and pure smile, he paused, and said: "See, I saw one."
The teenagers' eyes lit up immediately, and they surrounded him and shouted, "Who is who?"
"I heard that the third princess is at a good age and looks very beautiful. Didn't you see the third princess?"
"Or the fourth princess? It seems that the fourth princess is also pretty!"
Before Shen Ci could speak, they started guessing in a hurry, and Shen Ci said flatly: "A prince."
"Prince..." Everyone was a little disappointed, but immediately became curious again, "What does the prince look like?"
Shen Ci frowned and said, "Two eyes and one mouth, what else do you want to look like?"
"You are always so boring." One person said, "That's the prince, can he be like an ordinary person? Isn't he a dragon and a phoenix?"
Shen Ci thought that you still knew the word Longzhang Fengzi, so he made a "tch" and said, "It's just a kid, what is Longzhang Fengzi?"
Just now that person slapped him on the head and said: "If anyone listens to your words, you will not be punished for the crime of disrespect."
"It was originally." Shen Ci snorted, "I haven't seen the other princes, anyway, the sixth prince is just a child."
"Sixth prince..." The older boy thought for a while, "I remember that the sixth prince seems to be 11 years old this year, isn't he the same age as you? You still call him a kid?"
"He looks younger than me." Shen Ci refused to accept, "He is more than half a head shorter than me, and he talks like a baby, and looks like a baby."
Shen Ci's voice was still immature when he spoke. Everyone wanted to laugh, but they didn't dare to laugh. Thinking of your cold face, which seemed indifferent, in fact, there was still a little fat on your face. It's similar to that of the sixth prince.
"Then have you seen the emperor?"
Seeing that they had found a new point of curiosity, Shen Ci said helplessly, "No."
"The emperor puts so many women in the palace every year..." The boys of this age are not afraid of anything, they see that there is no one around, and they forget that they taught Shen Ci not to talk nonsense, so they moved closer and said in a low voice, "I always thought he had an over-indulgent face."
Shen Ci thought about it quite seriously, and said: "Not necessarily, the sixth prince is quite good-looking, his father can't be ugly, right?"
"Isn't the sixth prince's mother from the Jiaofang Division? How can a prostitute look good? Maybe the sixth prince looks like his mother."
Shen Ci's face turned cold again, and the person who spoke just now realized immediately, and hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that, I didn't mention you."
"It's okay." Shen Ci shook his head and said again, "But don't say that about the sixth prince."
"The sixth prince is pretty good-looking?" Another person grasped the point of the previous words, "How good-looking is it?"
Shen Ci recalled again: "The face is very fair, and she looks better than a girl."
Everyone laughed again, and said: "How many girls have you met, and you say that they are prettier than girls!"
"I didn't lie to you!" Shen Ci snorted, picked up his bow and arrows and left, "The girl is not as good looking as him!"
Shen Ci calculated the time, and the salary should be paid in these two days. He took Shen Che's share every month, and today he went to the Thousand Household Office to pick it up. The people in charge of paying the salary knew him. Seeing him, he smiled and said, "Hey, did you come back from Lezhou with Fifth Young Master?"
"Yes." Shen Ci responded, signed for Shen Che and received his salary, "Leave."
"Wait, Fifth Young Master is looking for you."
Shen Ci looked irritable, but he still turned around and walked in. When he reached the main room, Du Xun stopped him and said: "The commander and envoy are here, and the fifth young master is talking to someone."
"Then I'll go back first." Shen Ci became even more annoyed, turned around and wanted to leave again.
"Fifth Young Master asked you to wait." Du Xun was a little annoyed, and stopped him, "Can't you just wait?"
Shen Ci gritted his teeth and leaned against the pillars to wait. The people in the room heard voices outside, and the door opened. Pei Yunjing was indeed with a man in official uniform. Looking out, the official glanced at him , Closed the door again and went back.
The commander Si Tongzhi asked in the room: "The one outside the door looks familiar, is it Mr. Pei back then..."
Most of the officials in Suifang knew about it. Although Shen Ci was young, he still looked like Pei Yuankai. Pei Yunjing responded, "Well, it's him."
"It's so big?" Tongzhi sighed, "Do you want to keep him by your side in the future?"
"The origin of his military status is unknown. If the Pei family doesn't suppress him, he won't know how he died."
The Pei family didn't want to suppress this kind of thing. Tongzhi smiled and said, "He knows it himself, right? He's still young and maybe he doesn't understand it very well. What about in the future? Will he have that thought?"
Pei Yunjing looked at him gloomyly, and said, "What do you want to say?"
"Actually, the Pei family doesn't have to keep him."
Pei Yunjing put down his hand that wanted to refill him tea, the teapot knocked heavily on the table, and said in a deep voice, "I really don't like him, but he is still my brother."
Shen Ci waited outside the house for nearly half an hour before the door opened again, and all ordered Si Tongzhi to leave. Pei Yunjing glanced at him and said, "Come in."
Shen Ci walked in and asked, "What's the matter?"
"This year is the time for the imperial court to check the third volume of military registration. In the past two days, the Ministry of War and the commanders and envoys will come. Don't come, stay at home." Pei Yunjing didn't seem to want to talk to him, and he was not very interesting. "Don't run around without my permission."
Shen Ci didn't like his commanding tone very much, but he just frowned, nodded and said, "Oh."
Pei Yunjing was even more unhappy, and looked at him and said, "Don't look at me like that, I'd like to see who is hiding this from you, thank you."
Shen Cili didn't even want to talk to him, and said: "Yes, thank you Fifth Young Master." After saying that, he didn't want to look at Pei Yunjing any more, and quickly walked out of the Qianhu Office, got on his horse and went home.
Pushing open the door, Shen Che didn't know what happened to Lezhou, so he was a little surprised to see him come back, and said, "The autumn hunting is over so soon? Why are you back?"
"The emperor was assassinated and went back to Beijing." Shen Ci smelled the aroma of the meal, ran into the house a few steps, called "Ms. Niang", saw that there were leftovers on the table, took the bowls and chopsticks for himself and filled the meal quickly Eat up.
"Eat slowly." Ye Xinmei didn't expect him to come back suddenly. Fortunately, she was used to cooking more food, but she stood up and said, "I'll cook another dish for you."
"No need." Shen Ci grabbed her, "Enough."
"You said the emperor was assassinated?" Shen Che also sat down, "Is nothing wrong?"
"It's okay, a few remnants of the eunuchs." Shen Ci said, "No one seems to be injured."
"Is Lezhou fun?" Ye Xinmei asked with a smile, "Have you made any new friends?"
Shen Ci slowed down the speed of eating, poked the white rice, and said: "I met the sixth prince, and I hit it off."
"Who is so so?" Shen Che was taken aback, "Sixth prince? You mean the emperor's son?"
Shen Ci nodded: "Ah, yes."
"How can you still know this kind of person?" Shen Che stared at him, "We still have a chat?"
"It's an accident..." Shen Ci took two mouthfuls of rice, "The sixth prince is not favored, if he is really a big shot, he won't let me see him."
"Even if he is not favored, he is still a prince, and he is not a big shot?" Shen Che knocked on him, "What are you talking about with the sixth prince?"
Shen Ci touched the knocked head, and said: "The sixth prince said that when he goes to Jiangnan to become a vassal king, he will transfer me to Jiangnan to stay with him, and then I will take you over."
Shen Che seemed to have heard some kind of joke, and said amusedly, "I've only met a few times, who are you, and I will help you with your future? Who are you lying to?"
"He didn't lie to me!" Shen Ci was still a little bit aggrieved, "Master, just wait. After a few years, when I get a job in the army, I can go to Jiangnan!"
Shen Che looked at him like a fool, and patted him on the head: "Silly boy, do you take it seriously when the sixth prince casually says it? Did he give you any token? When you get a job in the army, how do you find it?" he goes?"
Shen Ci was a little embarrassed, and said: "He left in a hurry, he probably forgot to give me the token... But anyway, he won't lie to me, he's not that kind of person!"
"What kind of person?" Shen Che became even more amused, "You are naive."
Ye Xinmei also said: "Yes, who is the sixth prince, you will forget who you are in a few years."
"You don't believe me when I tell you, anyway, he's not that kind of person." Shen Ci didn't bother to say any more, after eating a bowl of rice, he said with firm eyes, "He will definitely keep his promise."
I will definitely come to him again, and I will take him to the south of the Yangtze River to see the peach blossoms that stretch for miles.
Xie Tang, who was frightened and returned to Beijing early, actually recovered halfway, and went back to play all the way, deliberately detoured a little far, and returned to Pingdu slowly.
Xie Ruzhuo was a little unhappy, he only went out of the palace once a year in Autumn Hunting, and he came back before he had fully enjoyed himself, and he had to be locked up in the palace all day to read and write, no one to play with him, not even to play with him. No one he spoke to.
Thinking about it this way, he drooped his brows and eyes, pursed his lips and thought: He has to escape to Jiangnan quickly, and then take that brother there, so that someone can talk to him and play with him.
The next day after returning to the palace, the princes resumed studying. Xie Ruzhuo was the first one to arrive at the Wenhua Hall every day. He had an early morning greeting with his husband, and sat in the corner. He arranged the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and took out the book. Review carefully.
There are currently four princes who are of the right age to study in the palace. The fifth prince, the seventh prince and the eighth prince all have their own companions, but Xie Ruzhuo has never had one. Tu, who would think of sending his son to such a prince who is not favored at all, and Xie Tang is also indifferent to this matter, Xie Ruzhuo has never mentioned it, and he thinks it is good to be alone.
After a stick of incense, the Fifth Prince and his companion came over talking and laughing. The whole room insisted on passing by his corner, and deliberately knocked down his desk, knocking down the inkstone that was just in the inkstone. The ground ink knocked out and stained his book.
"Ah, it's dirty, I'm sorry." The fifth prince smiled at him, tore off a jasper pendant from his waist, and threw it on his table, "Father said he wanted to be friendly with younger brothers, but I dirty your book. I will pay you a piece of jade pendant, you can’t usually get this jade pendant, I will give it to you to have a look.”
Xie Ruzhuo has always been envious of Brother Wuhuang, but he really doesn't like Brother Wuhuang. He always speaks in a weird way and likes to ridicule him. Looking at the jade pendant on the table, he didn't speak. Brother Wuhuang threw the jade pendant like Is giving him something.
"Brother Wuhuang was careless, it's okay." Xie Ruzhuo smiled and handed the jade pendant back, "Such a precious thing is still suitable for Brother Wuhuang to wear."
"That's right, you are not worthy of such a fine jade." The fifth prince snorted coldly, grabbed back the jade pendant, and left without looking back.
Xie Ruzhuo got used to it a long time ago, he didn't take it to heart at all, and continued to read the book stained with ink, he would memorize it anyway, and he could understand it even if it was dirty.
Then the Seventh Prince and the Eighth Prince also came. In order to increase the number of people in the Wenhua Hall, Xie Tang also asked several other clan members and some families of meritorious officials with titles to send their children to study together. There are more than 20 people, Xie Ruzhuo is more and more inconspicuous sitting in the corner. During the break, other people gather to chat. He will not join, and those people will not come to him. The fifth prince said "the son of a whore".
It seems that since Xie Ruzhuo can remember, he has always been far away from the bustle, no matter where he is, he is the only one, no one cares about him, no one likes him, and no one will talk to him sincerely , play games with him that he also really wants to play.
It's not that he doesn't like excitement, it's just that he has long been used to quietness.
But he has always been very open. They don't like him, and he doesn't like them either. What's the point of playing with people you don't like? Isn't it more troublesome?
Besides, when he goes to Jiangnan, he can have someone to play with him in the future.
Hmph, that elder brother is good-looking and very powerful, you people can't compare to him at all.
Today, the gentleman is talking about "Zhongni Yanju" in the "Book of Rites". This Hanlin scholar likes to point people to answer questions. Almost everyone will be clicked by him once. Just a few questions, those people did not answer. Obviously It was because he hadn’t read the book carefully, so the gentleman glanced at it and said, “Your Majesty the Sixth Highness, let’s talk about it. Why did Confucius say, ‘Rites are rituals! Husband’s rituals are so well-regulated.’”
Xie Ruzhuo had finished reading the Book of Rites a long time ago, stood up and replied fluently: "Before this sentence, Confucius said that Zi Zhang, Zi Gong, and Zi You had their own shortcomings, so Zi Gong asked how to do it right. Tell him that "ritual" is used to control the right heat. The students think that everyone has the same shortcomings as the three of them. If there are no rules and regulations, then many people will do whatever they want, which is not conducive to the stability of the country. Therefore, we must observe the rituals like saints, work hard to correct the deficiencies, and gradually approach the so-called just right, self-cultivation and family harmony, so that our family and country can be stable, and we can have rules and regulations.”
The gentleman stroked his beard in satisfaction, nodded and said: "Although His Highness the Sixth Highness is young, he has far-reaching insights, which is very good."
Xie Ruzhuo smiled, said "Excellent sir", and sat down. The fifth prince turned his head and looked at him incredulously. He ignored it, spread out the rice paper, and recorded the content of the sir's explanation.
Mr. Dangtang arranged another short article for everyone to write, and after handing it in for review, it was time to leave school, but Xie Tang, who hadn't cared about the prince's study for several months, was in the mood to come here today to have a look.
Everyone hurriedly got up to greet them, Xie Tang seemed to be in a really good mood, he asked everyone to sit down again with a smile, and asked the teacher how everyone was doing.
"I arranged an article today. Both the fifth prince and the sixth prince wrote it well. The princes of the two county kings also made great progress. The seventh prince and the eighth prince also listened carefully today, and their handwriting is much better than before."
In fact, the husband often praised Xie Ruzhuo the most. Hearing that the husband praised himself in front of his father, Xie Ruzhuo was still a little happy. Seeing his father smiling all the time, he thought: Will my father also praise him today?
The fifth prince immediately stood up and ran over to hold Xie Tang, and said affectionately: "Royal father, you said two days ago that if I come back and learn well, I will give your new square jade ruler to my son. Today, the master praised Erchen for writing a good article, is the emperor going to give it to Erchen?"
Xie Tang laughed, patted the fifth prince's head, and said: "It was originally meant to be given to you, come and get it later."
"Thank you, father!" The fifth prince rubbed Xie Tang's arm, "I will work harder, and set an example for my younger brothers, which will make father happy."
"It's good for you to think like this." Xie Tang has always liked this son very much, he is sweet-mouthed and sensible, "Besides the prince, you are the eldest in the palace now, and you really want to set an example for your younger brothers."
Seeing this, the Seventh and Eighth Princes also ran up to Xie Tang and yelled that the imperial brother had a reward and they wanted it too. Seeing it, Xie Tang was even happier, touched everyone's heads, and replied: "There are all of them, wait for them." I will choose the one I like with you five emperor brothers."
The heirs of the two county kings and several sons of the Marquis Manor went to talk to Xie Tang, and they enjoyed themselves happily. Only Xie Ruzhuo sat quietly in the corner, still far away from the hustle and bustle.
No one mentioned His Highness the Sixth Highness, and no one gave him a second look, as if he had been forgotten long ago.
Xie Ruzhuo lowered his eyes, silently packed the things on the table and put them in his bookcase, and did not go up to speak.
The excitement doesn't belong to him, so why bother to dislike him in the past?
His mother didn't like him or even hated him, and his father never gave him a second look. His brothers and sisters laughed at him, and children of the same age rejected him. Maybe he was born as a child that no one liked.
Xie Tang was surrounded by the three princes and left. Xie Ruzhuo sat for a while and asked the courtiers waiting for him at the door: "Have you inquired? Elder Brother Huang is sure to go to the Empress's place today?"
"Yes, His Royal Highness is at the empress's place, and he should come out now." The minister replied.
Xie Ruzhuo nodded, handed the book box to the courtier, and walked to the Queen's bedroom alone, passing a small garden, and heard the voice of a child, he stopped and glanced, and happened to bump into the prince Xie Ruzhang.
"I've met the elder brother Huang." Xie Ruzhuo ran over to greet Xie Ruzhang, saw him holding his son who was not yet three years old, and said with a smile, "Is the elder brother bringing Ming Ting to see the empress?"
"Yes." Xie Ruzhang looks like a weak scholar, but his appearance is breezy and bright, which makes people very comfortable, and his smile is gentle and polite, "Sixth brother just finished school?"
"En." Xie Ruzhuo saw that Xie Mingting's round face was really cute, and the skin of a child of this age was also white, like a glutinous rice dumpling, so he couldn't help pinching his face, "Mingting is so cute."
Knowing that he was praising him, Xie Mingting grinned. Xie Ruzhang asked him to call Sixth Emperor Uncle. He was still slurring his words, so he called obediently, and went to hold Xie Ruzhuo's hand. He turned around and said to his father with a smile: " Father, this uncle is the prettiest."
Xie Ruzhang patted his head amusedly, and asked, "What's the matter, sixth brother?"
"There is one thing I would like to ask Brother Huang for help." Xie Ruzhuo rubbed his ears a little embarrassedly, "I want to leave the palace as soon as possible, but I don't know where my father wants me to go...I..."
Xie Ruzhang guessed what he meant, and asked, "Is there somewhere you want to go?"
"Yes, I want to go to Jiangnan." Xie Ruzhuo bowed again respectfully, "I beg the elder brother of the emperor to help me to talk to my father."
Xie Ruzhang was a little surprised. The prince was eager to go to Jiufan later, and he didn't want to go too far away from the capital. He said, "Jiangnan? Are you going so far?"
"I like Jiangnan." Xie Ruzhuo looked up and smiled, "Brother Huang, do you think it's okay?"
"Since you really want to go, I'll help you and tell Father." Xie Ruzhang was in poor health, and actually didn't meet his younger brothers very often, but when he saw them, they were all gentle and amiable, and they always responded to requests. They liked him very much from the bottom of their hearts, "The fifth younger brother should also go to the Imperial Palace next year, and there will be fewer people in the palace."
Xie Ruzhuo was overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked him. Seeing that he was thin and thin, Xie Ruzhang also knew the reason why he wanted to go to the feudal clan so early, sighed, and asked the maid behind him to give him a bag of snacks, saying: "This is Ming Ting has already eaten a lot of the snacks given to Ming Ting by his mother just now, I won’t let him eat more, you can eat them, there are peach cakes and kidney bean rolls.”
Normally, no one would give Xie Ruzhuo anything. He said no, but the light in his eyes could not be faked. He kept staring at the package of snacks. Xie Ruzhang also touched his head and gave him the snacks: "take it."
Xie Ruzhuo was a little moved in his heart, thanked him, took the snacks and walked back to the palace from another road.
He didn't take the dim sum back to the palace, he found a hidden corner on the road, squatted down and unwrapped the dim sum, and ate it bite by bite.
Liu Yan'er didn't like him taking other people's things, and told him that they were given by others because of their pity, and would throw away those things like crazy, and beat his palms red with a ruler, not allowing him to eat.
But he is still a child after all, and he also longs for others to like him more and give him some warm kindness, but he doesn't want his mother to be angry, so he can only hide in secret and eat these snacks in the end.
Xie Ruzhuo wiped off the crumbs around his mouth, carefully wrapped up the last bit of snack, carefully hid it in his bosom, and kept it for later eating, and he could take it out to eat when his mother refused to let him eat.
Today I was praised by my husband and met my cute little nephew. Brother Huang promised to let him go to the south of the Yangtze River, and gave him a pack of snacks. The snacks are very delicious. Smiling and bouncing back to the palace.
Liu Yan'er doesn't like to light too many candles in the room, the room is always a bit dark, Xie Ruzhuo peeked in from the door, and saw her sitting on the soft couch stroking the five-stringed pipa, but she didn't pick it up to play, The eyebrows are full of sadness, and there is no feeling in my heart.
He wanted to make his mother happy, so he walked in and bowed, and said with a smile: "Mother, today, Mr. praised me for a good article. At that time, the emperor was nearby and heard it!"
Liu Yan'er looked at him indifferently, and said: "Then your father praised you?"
Xie Ruzhuo opened his mouth, then lowered his eyes in disappointment, and said in a low voice, "Father probably forgot..."
"He didn't even look at you." Liu Yan'er sneered, "Men are like this, they can't remember the woman they liked, and they can't remember their son."
Xie Ruzhuo bit his lip, carefully tugged at Liu Yan'er's sleeve, and said, "Mother Concubine, I told Eldest Brother Huang that I want to go to Jiangnan, so I will be a fan. Next year, at the latest, the year after, we will leave here and go to Jiangnan." , It's beautiful there, and the concubine will definitely like it."
Liu Yan'er lowered her head and didn't speak for a while, but she rarely spoke to him in a soft voice: "Let's go, go wherever you want, don't come back..."
Xie Ruzhuo immediately became happy again, squatted in front of the soft couch, held Liu Yan'er's hand, and said softly: "Jiangnan must be better than here, the mother and concubine will feel better there, forget all the unhappy things, and don't worry about it." You'll never see someone you don't like again."
That was the first time Liu Yan'er rubbed his head gently, letting him know that his mother would love him too.
On that day, he felt that he was the happiest person in the world, and fantasized about the unhappy years in the future.
Leaving the palace he didn't like, going to a place full of peach blossoms in spring, taking his mother to pick up the elder brother who was willing to protect him, and spending his life in obscurity but contentment.
He wants to be a flying bird, forever, forever, to leave this cage and go to the free world to watch the moon rise and the sun go down.
But he didn't know that he couldn't fly out. In this life, he never flew out of this cage again. For the rest of his life, at the end of the journey, he was still the only one in the end, and the hustle and bustle of the world would never belong to him.
The author has something to say: a few small details compared with the previous article:
1. In the ending chapter, it was written that Xiao Xie said that in order to let everyone accept that he would not marry a wife and have children, he said that the elder brother Huang was very good to him, and that he gave him a pack of dim sum in the old year was touching. Although it was written decades later, Xiao Xie Xie himself is not sure whether it is true or not, but Brother Huang really gave him a pack of dim sum, which moved him very much.
2. In Chapter 22, Xiao Xie stared blankly at a bird flying out of the palace wall in the cold palace. Maybe at that time he was just fantasizing that he was that bird, flying out of this cage forever and going to the vast world.
3. Pei Yunjing helped Xiao Shen cover up his military status as mentioned in the previous article, and it is also compared here. He is a contradictory body, jealous and conscientious at the same time, but generally speaking, he still regards Xiao Shen as his own brother in his heart , I was a bit distorted and perverted by environmental factors since I was a child, but my nature is not bad.
4. Xiao Shen said over and over again that he would not lie to me. In Chapter 19, after he knew that the sixth prince had gone to the cold palace, he also said how he could lie to me... The world is not kind, the agreement of that year finally became a young joke, forever lost in time.
Fortunately, Xiao Xie in this life finally became a bird, left the cage, and went to Jiangnan with his brother who was willing to protect him forever. For the rest of his life, he is no longer alone. He has elders who love him and a lover to accompany him , possessing the hustle and bustle of the world.I cried while writing this episode, and suddenly felt that maybe in a parallel time and space, my two cubs really existed and lived happily together. (Wipe another tear)
The next one is the sub-cp episode, it will be updated tomorrow, and it will be updated the day after tomorrow.
Seeing that more than one cutie mentioned Xiao Xie's women's clothing, I plan to write a women's clothing in the modern campus episode later, okay~
