Hypocrites

"Young Master Shen."

Xinzhou was obviously not surprised to see him.Shen Yu had already lost interest in questioning, the Chu Palace behaved in such a way that the upper beam was not upright and the lower beam was crooked. He took a step towards the private room, and Xinzhou immediately stopped him.

"His Royal Highness is meeting with friends, so we can talk about things later."

Shen Yu sneered, pushed the person away, and the beaded curtain closed, immediately separating out a small world full of the smell of wine and laughter.

All the seats were plump and handsome teenagers in fresh clothes and feather fans, flushed from drinking, stumbling around, embracing each other, and even lying drunk on their knees.

The drunken young master even came to pick up Shen Yu's pants, yelling "It's too late, I will punish myself with three pots", trying to wrap him around him.

Shen Yu pulled out his leg, pushed the foolish young man back into his companion's arms, and walked straight to the banquet.

A golden cup of fine wine and lychees, behind the table was Liang Heng with blurred eyes, he also slumped on the shoulder of the hostess, who was telling some joke, His Royal Highness laughed so hard that he was held by the waist so as not to fall.

Shen Yumen seemed to stop before the case, feeling that Liang Heng could no longer recognize him at this time.

The drinker took a look at him, and his eyes fell on the hem of his embroidered gold thread and the jade pendant, without saying anything, he gently persuaded Liang Heng with a cup of small gold cup.

The glass of wine stopped in the air, and because of the rush, two drops were spilled.Shen Yu pinched the wrist of the wine companion.

The wine accompaniment poked out his eyes, he didn't look like a man in the world, he was a bit domineering.

Even the wine hall was three points quiet.

Liang Heng was a little sober during the confrontation, recognized Shen Yu, and said relaxedly: "You are here, want to play with me? Yes, come on, come on."

Only then did the accompanying wine calm down, and asked in a warm voice: "His Royal Highness's friend?"

Liang Heng said: "Mr. Gongli's son, who accompanied me to study."

When the word "reading" was said, the whole room roared with laughter.Shen Yu didn't change his expression amidst the mocking booing from the young masters, and said to Liang Heng: "I'm here to accompany you, not to drink with you. Your Highness, Cao Min invites you to return to the palace to attend the school, cherish your time, and don't waste it casually."

Liang Heng was very surprised: "You, even if you are nagging in class, why do you still want to chant scriptures during the holidays? Apart from persuading me to study, you have nothing else to do?"

Shen Yu ground his molars.

The accompanying drinker found it interesting, and asked, "Your Highness has invited a new wife?"

"Yes," Liang Heng said, "I heard that he is a famous teacher in Ruyang. It is unlucky to meet me. I get a headache when I see the scriptures." He peeled the lychee and stuffed it into his mouth, lazily unwilling He moved and waved his hand at Shen Yu: "Sir, if you let me go, I will let you go too. Go do your own thing and leave me alone."

Shen Yu: "The class was supposed to be taught a quarter of an hour ago, where is the holiday?"

Liang Heng: "..."

The bead curtain parted again, Xinzhou heard the movement, turned around, and Liang Heng walked out of the gentle town with two wide tears on his face.The young masters were reluctant to part: "His Royal Highness often comes!"

Shen Yu followed Liang Heng closely, like escorting a prisoner.

Liang Heng held Xinzhou's hand that came over, in disbelief: "I really have class in the afternoon?"

Xinzhou lowered his eyebrows and looked pleasing to the eye: "I think His Highness knows."

Liang Heng couldn't stand still, he staggered to and fro, and wished he could faint and ask for leave. Yesterday someone told him that he didn't have to wake up this morning, and he could just sleep until the sun was up, so he thought that there was no class.Going out to have fun, and no one reminded him.

The rich aroma of the fruit wine stained Liang Heng's body, reminding Shen Yu that he was also dizzy from drinking the first day he saw Liang Heng.Xinzhou faithfully offered his arm to support, but Liang Heng wanted to lean on Shen Yu's body, probably because he was so dizzy that he couldn't control the direction, so he tilted his head and pulled Shen Yu's sleeve.

Shen Yu was pressed by half of his shoulder, thinking of the attendant who served Liang Heng wine in the private room.Liang Heng is not a royal nobleman who abides by etiquette, he is naturally lazy, indulgent and frivolous, and it may be that he learned it from the wind and moon field.

With contempt, Shen Yu asked Xinzhou about the wine companion.But Xinzhou said: "You are joking, how can it be a young man with wine. That is Mr. Duan of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Duan Boyu, Prime Minister of the Southern Qi Kingdom, has been diligent and conscientious for the country all his life. His eldest son, Duan Yanling, spends his days in the blue sky accompanying the crown prince who skipped classes to have fun.

Liang Heng didn't know how much he drank, and he didn't make any fuss, but he was sleepy when he walked. Xinzhou tried to pick him up from Shen Yu's back, but Liang Heng was too tightly entangled, so Shen Yu had to carry him all the way back to the Chu Palace.Shen Jin stood at the door and looked around, seeing the unconscious prince, she shook her head silently.

The young man had a light frame and a high body temperature, and he was carried on Shen Yu's back. The smell of alcohol made Shen Yu almost faint.He put Liang Heng on the couch, and the servants from the Huangmen swarmed up.

"Pour some cold water. Your Highness gets thirsty every time he drinks too much."

"Ouch, I'm going to throw up!"

Shen Yu immediately bounced away, and sure enough, Liang Heng turned up in discomfort, fell into the basin held by Huang Men, vomited a few times, and lay back down with his eyes closed.

Even his eyelids were crimson.Shen Yu waited for a while, but he was not awake.

Drunk, congratulations.

Shen Yu said to Xinzhou: "There is no class today."

Wangducheng Huaishufang, the house that the Shen family bought in Wangcheng, lived in for a few days, and the servants were busy repairing and renovating the deserted courtyard.

Woody vines covered the pergola, clusters of white flowers hung down, Shen Jin sat under the flower vines drinking tea, student Song Jun accompanied him.

Shen Jin's ability to take care of himself and his achievements in learning are two extremes. When he suddenly wants to live in Wangcheng temporarily, Mrs. Shen is the most worried. All peers.

When Shen Yu found them, Song Jun was peeling a few lychees, piled them crystal clear on a porcelain plate, and placed them by Mr.When Shen Yu saw Li Zhi, he thought of Liang Heng's ridiculous behavior in Chen Yutang.

"He drank with people and got so drunk that he didn't remember any lessons."

Shen Jin ate fruit and drank tea, but didn't speak, Song Jun asked curiously, "Prince Heng? I heard Mr. Cui and others can't do anything about him. What do you think, teacher?"

Shen Jin replied to his son, "You sue me, who can I sue? Your Majesty?"

The listener was interested, and Shen Yu was taken aback for a moment, then he found it strange.It has been more than half a month since I arrived in the royal city, and I haven't heard of the emperor summoning me, and I have never come to the Chu Palace to inspect the prince's homework.

Shen Jin asked Song Jun, "Why do you work hard every day?"

Song Jun was originally from Yingchuan. When he was young, he admired the fame and worshiped Shen's School in Ruyang.

Shen Jin asked Shen Yu again: "You don't need to be an official, and you don't work hard for fame and fortune. What is it for?"

"Why do you have a brother?" Song Jun smiled and answered for him, "If you don't study hard, you will be punished by the teacher."

Shen Yu was thoughtful.

"Prince Heng doesn't need to obtain fame, nor will he be whipped." Shen Jin sighed, "Why is he willing to sit peacefully in the study and listen to the hypnosis sutra?"

Liang Heng was drunk for three days and didn't go out of the apse for three days. Shen Jin also learned to be smart, and stopped running back and forth for nothing, and ordered his son to check the situation for him.

This day Shen Yu went to the Chu Palace again, the streets in the royal city were so hot that no one was seen, only the scorching sun dazzled people blindly, Shen Yu wore a silk hat to shade the sun, and the situation was quite different once he entered the Chu Palace—rockery lake , The green willows are shaded, the flowers are in full bloom, the birds are singing and the swallows are turning, the endless bamboo curtains in the corridor block the sun, and the blue spots of light and shadow swim with the wind.

The lake surface is breezy, and a water pavilion stands in the center, with layers of light veils flying around, revealing numerous figures in the water pavilion.

Before I got close, I heard laughter and laughter.

There were people standing at the four corners of the waterside pavilion, Liang Heng was blindfolded and stretched out his hands to fumble around. He didn't wear royal clothes today, he changed into a light gauze dress, the long sleeves of the clothes bounced around with him, he was very lively.

Some of the people who played with him were Xiao Huangmen, and some were the sons and brothers whom Shen Yu had met in Chen Yutang.

Blindfolded, Liang Heng spotted a person, and guessed who it was from his facial features. If he guessed right, he replaced him, and if he guessed wrong, continue.

Everyone loves to tease him, and they run past him with loud noises.When Liang Heng touched Xinzhou, this was the most obedient one, and he didn't move and let him do what he wanted, Liang Heng smiled confidently: "I know!"

Duan Yanling quietly winked at Xinzhou, and the two changed identities in front of Liang Heng.

"Is it Xinzhou?" Liang Heng stretched out his hand to touch Duan Yanling's face, and Duan Yanling pressed his waist against the pillar of the pavilion.The blindfolded ribbon was white, Liang Heng's lips were bright red, and Duan Yanling's breath flowed over his cheeks, corners of his lips, and shoulder sockets, presumptuous and intimate.

Such a bold act, but no one stopped it.

With the curtain parted, Shen Yu looked cold, and suddenly looked at Duan Yanling in the pavilion.The beams and pillars painted in relief supported the weight of the two of them, Duan Yanling put his arms around Liang Heng and smiled at him.

"Xinzhou?" Liang Heng stroked Duan Yanling's chin.

"It's wrong." Duan Yanling said intimately, holding Liang Heng's shoulder and pushing, the people in the pavilion swarmed up, like catching a flower falling in the gentle wind, Liang Heng deviated in their teasing , fell in front of Shen Yu.

"Don't move!" Liang Heng hurriedly said, grabbing Shen Yu's sleeve, touching his neck along his shoulders, touching the corners of his lips and the bridge of his nose.

His fingers were soaked in the lake wind and water vapor, and they were icy cold, and they were very comfortable to touch in summer.Shen Yu stood ice-cold, as expected, motionless.

Liang Heng's hand climbed up to his eyes: "Duan Yanling!"

Duan Yanling leaned on Ping Lan and smiled, full of confidence and contentment.

"Lian Zhen!" Liang Heng called again.

Tingxieli didn't know who it was.

Shen Yu pulled up his sleeves and turned around to leave. Liang Heng was blindfolded, but was almost thrown by him, so he took off the blindfold with an ouch.

A kind of absurd and surprising anger rushed straight to Shen Yu's forehead, Liang Heng could always bring him new disappointments.But the angrier he got, the calmer he became, and he walked along the shore of the lake full of hibiscus at a leisurely pace. The blue waves were rippling and the scenery was pleasant, until Liang Heng trotted to catch up.

"Shen Yu!"

Finally called the right name, Liang Heng called him while running.

"Your Highness." Shen Yugong stopped respectfully.

Liang Heng was panting, and came to pull his sleeves.This His Highness is really approachable, he can cuddle and flirt with anyone.

"Why are you here? Is there any class today?"

"No class," Shen Yu replied, "His Royal Highness, feel free to play, there will be no class in the future."

Liang Heng looked at him stupidly.

"Students are filial piety when they enter, younger brothers when they leave, be sincere and trustworthy, love everyone, be kind, and study literature if they have spare capacity," Shen Yu said coldly, "Virtue is the foundation, literature and art are the end. I see His Highness's deeds, It is not enough to study the scriptures.”

He spoke eloquently, and Liang Heng could half understand it. Fortunately, he had one advantage - he was good at observing words and expressions. He felt that Shen Yu seemed to look down on him a bit.

"What do you mean?" Liang Heng straightened his face.

Shen Yu laughed: "The grassroots retire."

He waited for Liang Heng to call him to stop, or scold him in a petty temper, but nothing happened.Shen Yu walked out of the Chu Palace without looking back, without any hindrance.

After that day, Shen Jin couldn't control his son anymore - Shen Yu didn't want to go to the Chu Palace again.Shen Jin didn't ask why, and knew without asking, that there used to be a young man surnamed Chen in Guangling who studied diligently and diligently, but became lazy when he was admitted to Shen's school, and Shen Yu chased him around Anjingfang three times with a feather duster.

Shen Jin sometimes felt that his son was too young and mature, but it was not born like this, and he was punished for being lazy and lazy in the past, and he forgot when the ring and whip could not fall on Shen Yu's back.

"I'll give you a few days off, what do you plan to do?" Shen Jin asked Shen Yu, hoping to get an answer other than studying and writing.

"Go out." Shen Yu said.

Shen Jin nodded in relief: "Where are you going?"

"Xishi Bookstore, together with Song Jun and Mr. Cui."

Song Jun came from the same school as Shen Jin's eldest student, and Mr. Xiao Cui was the second son of Cui's family, Ji, one round older than Shen Yu.The two of them, Shen Jin, knew each other very well, one was more bookish than the other, and the one who talked inseparable from each other was also known by Shi Ziji.

Shen Jin asked: "Can't you have friends who are similar in age and more lively?"

For this request, Shen Yu could only think of Liang Heng.Thinking of Liang Heng, he sneered.

In Xishi Bookshop, Shen Jin bought a hundred volumes of scriptures from his home as soon as he arrived in Wangcheng. Both father and son became distinguished guests. Shen Yu wanted to have a party with his friend Bookstore. tea.

The business of the book store is good, and the people of Wangcheng love to read. Before entering the store, they heard shouts:

"Pictures of Beautiful Men in Wangdu, the second volume is out, if you want to buy it, hurry up, while stocks last!"

Shen Yu: "..."

Shen Yu greeted a familiar figure from the back in the store: "Mr. Cui."

Sure enough, it was Cui Ji, and he was also crowded in front of the booth with the people who bought "Pictures of Beautiful Men in Wangdu". The hand-painted faces on hemp paper were compiled into a volume, and the address of the Venerable Master's house was annotated on the side.Cui Ji was flipping through another book, and Shen Yu saw the beginning of the volume - "Two or Three Things the Chu Palace and the Prime Minister's Mansion Have to Say".

Shen Yu: "..."

Cui Ji put down the book: "Oh dear brother, it's so early."

Shen Yu: "What is written in the book?"

Cui Ji walked with him to the backyard of the store: "Let's spread the word nonsense, chew on the tongues of Prince Heng and Mr. Xiang's mansion. It's because the Municipal Department doesn't care if it's not banned."

However, Shen Yu saw Liang Heng and Duan Yanling messing around with his own eyes, so he didn't say a word.
