Tanhualang

Shen Jing took a step back and cupped his hands: "Don't dare to work, sir."

"Heh, what else are you afraid of?" Jia Yi leaned against the car window, smiling leisurely, "I don't know if you don't ask, I don't know if you are a mere seventh-rank editor, where did you get so much courage? How dare you use Fang Wei's name to scare me? After inquiring about it, I found out that Shen Tanhua was backed by the Lord Yu, who was behind the mountain. But I didn't know Mount Tai. I thought that Shen Tanhua was a gentleman who read sage books , I didn’t expect to have such a good skill.”

There was something in Jia Yi's words, Shen Jing's face changed immediately after hearing it.

Although Lu Meng didn't know what to say, he also heard that Jia Yi's words were not good, and his face suddenly showed a look of injustice. Just as he was about to speak, Yu Zhijing raised his hand to stop him, and said with a smile on his face: "Jia Yi My lord speaks too seriously. How dare I offend my lord when I wait for the younger generation? If there is anything to do, just ask your lord, and we will definitely obey."

"I hear those words pleasing to my ears, or the number one scholar will speak." Jia Yi loosened the curtain, stepped down from the front of the carriage, paced up to the three of them, and finally fell on Shen Jing, "Either someone is less than the number one scholar, and you are the one Well. Xiao Shen, I advise you to study hard, but it’s just a Jinshi exam and become a Hanlin, so don’t take yourself too seriously. How about a Jinshi, so what about the Hanlin? It's just a useful dog in front of the nobleman. I heard that a while ago, you insulted Prince Yu in the palace and offended him greatly? You look like a smart man, how could you do such a stupid thing? In the future, without a backer, I have to learn to be an honest person with my tail between my legs. Shen Tanhua, don’t you think so?”

As soon as the words fell, the curtain of the carriage at the entrance of the alley diagonally opposite was lifted. Zhao Heng got out of the carriage wearing a cloak, and looked at Jia Yi coldly: "In such a cold day, who is so idle, teaching others how to behave in the street?"

The sky was dark, Jia Yi turned around, stared at the person in front of him for a while before he recognized who it was, hurriedly lifted up the hem of his clothes and knelt down: "I have seen His Royal Highness King Yu!"

Shen Jing was pulled by Yu Zhijing, and together with Lu Meng, they also knelt down.

Zhao Heng walked up to Jia Yi wrapped in a cloak, and sneered: "What principles of life did you say just now? It's a little far away, and I didn't hear you clearly. Could you please say it again?"

"I don't dare." Jia Yi hesitated, thinking that Zhao Heng really didn't hear clearly, "It's just that yesterday... I had some official business yesterday, and I didn't explain it clearly to Editor Shen. I happened to meet him when I was on duty today, so I wanted to talk to Shen The editor will say it again."

"Official work? What important official business, and this king is involved in it?" Zhao Heng said, "You really think that this king is deaf, and didn't hear what you said? It's true that you are relying on quietness. A mountain, dare to make things difficult for court officials, and slander princes and ministers behind their backs?"

Jia Yi lowered his head, and immediately didn't dare to defend himself: "I made a slip of the tongue! Your Highness, forgive me! Your Highness, forgive me!"

Zhao Heng lifted the hem of his clothes, kicked the man in the chest, and kicked the man out: "Chew your tongue and chew on this king's head! Who gave you the courage!"

Jia Yi was kicked and rolled all the way, and got up and knelt on the ground to practice kowtow: "Your Highness, spare me! Your Highness, spare me!"

The three knelt behind them, Lu Meng muttered softly, "...that's a good kick. This man is really worthless."

Yu Zhijing glared at him, then turned her head and asked Shen Jing in a low voice: "I heard that Jia Yi is the queen's cousin. How did you offend him?"

Shen Jing shook her head: "I'll tell you later."

Jia Yi was still kowtowing, and two figures came over the street. Before they arrived, they heard laughter: "Who is this short-sighted person, who dares to offend His Highness?"

Shen Jing was apprehensive at first, but when she heard that it was Cao Feng, she was relieved.

Zhao Heng had no intention of giving up, before Cao Feng approached, he stepped forward and kicked Jia Yi again: "If you have anything to say in the future, remember to tell me face to face, don't hide behind your back and make irresponsible remarks. "

Jia Yi was kicked crookedly in the corner, and he didn't get up for a long time.

Only then did Cao Feng bring an attendant, Shi Shiran came over, first went to look at Jia Yi, and suddenly looked surprised: "Huh? Why is it you, Mr. Jia?"

As he said, he went to him, and at the same time, he took his pulse and tried it: "The pulse is fine, there should be nothing wrong."

"What could be the matter?" Zhao Heng snorted beside him, "Is Gu still afraid that he will die?"

"How did Mr. Jia provoke His Highness, and make His Highness so angry?" Cao Feng patted Jia Yi twice, and persuaded, "Quickly accompany Your Highness, this matter will be over."

Seeing someone smoothing things over, Jia also knelt down and kowtowed to Zhao Heng to make amends.

Cao Feng walked up to Zhao Heng, and persuaded him with a few words: "Your Highness, the Prime Minister, can pull a boat, so don't be as knowledgeable as he is. They are still waiting, and if they miss the business, it will not be worth it."

After finishing speaking, he ordered the followers behind him: "Go and call the two Jinyi guards, and help Mr. Jia to see the imperial physician, so as not to be shocked."

Cao Feng's entourage went away in response, Zhao Heng let Jia Yi go, turned around and went to the carriage with Cao Feng.

Passing by the three of Shen Jing, Zhao Heng walked over without looking back, but Cao Feng was a step behind, turned around and smiled at Shen Jing: "It's a very cold day, I'm afraid I'm going to freeze to the bone, get up quickly."

Only then did the three get up, and turned to look at Jia Yi, who was being carried into the car by his attendants.

Lu Meng covered his mouth, and praised in a low voice behind Shen Jing: "As expected of a prince, you are really domineering. Shen Jing, you are a good backer!"

Yu Zhijing scolded him in a low voice: "Stop saying a few words."

Just as he was talking, Zhao Heng's carriage rumbled closer and stopped in front of the three of them.Cao Feng raised the curtain and smiled through the car window: "We have a wine meeting, where are the three of you going? If you have nothing to do, why don't you go together?"

Seeing Shen Jing bowed his head and said nothing, Yu Zhijing smiled and cupped his hands to Cao Feng, "Thank you, sir. But Xiao Lu and I have already made an appointment, so don't bother me."

Cao Feng smiled: "Then you two won't be delayed. Where's Shen Jing?"

Shen Jing looked up and smiled: "Thank you. I still have something to do at home, so I have to go back."

Cao Feng nodded, just as he was about to lower the curtain, Zhao Heng leaned over, raised his hand to block the curtain, and looked straight at Shen Jing: "Come up."

Shen Jing frowned, but Cao Feng smiled from the side: "Come up quickly. Wouldn't it be a good idea to take you home on the way? It will save you two colleagues."

Shen Jing looked back, seeing that Yu Zhijing and Lu Meng were silent, so she said goodbye to them and got into the carriage.

Zhao Heng sat on the carriage with a stern expression on his face, presumably the anger just now hadn't dissipated.Sitting quietly next to Cao Feng, looking at his nose and nose with concern, he had nothing to say.

Jing Jing walked halfway, Cao Feng just coughed, broke the awkward silence, and asked Shen Jing: "Is your illness cured? Seeing that your complexion is still not good, why is this worth it? Don't stay at home for a few more days .”

Shen Jing smiled: "Anyway, there's nothing to do at home. It's better to talk to them in the yamen, at least it's not so boring."

Cao Feng picked up the teapot from the kang table and poured tea, and asked, "What is the name of the number one scholar, Yu Jingzhi, or Yu Zhijing? There is also that role model, is it called Lu Meng, right? You Sanding Jia is very familiar with it." , No. [-] in the top spot, and we usually get together, is it possible to study how to make articles every day?"

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Heng interrupted him, and asked Shen Jing in a low voice: "Why did that person trouble you just now?"

Shen Jing hesitated for a while, but said truthfully: "The Ministry of Industry drew up the details of the memorials for flood control in the south of the Yangtze River, and sent them to the Ministry of Households for verification. The person in charge of the floods in the south of the Yangtze River was originally Mr. Xia Zeji, but for some reason it was replaced by Mr. Jia. Yesterday he brought the detailed draft from the Ministry of Industry, saying that there are some places in the detailed manual from the Ministry of Industry that do not match the memorial, and he asked me to check the detailed list first.”

Cao Feng interjected: "I don't know why some people dare to make His Highness angry, so it's because of you. Have you met this Jia Yi before? Or did you have any dealings with him?"

Shen Jing thought for a while: "I haven't seen it. I haven't even heard of it."

Cao Feng thought for a moment after hearing this: "This is strange. The Ministry of Household Affairs has always been like this, some are powerful, and some are responsible. This Jia also relies on the Queen's backing. Although he is usually a bit public, he wants to find Trouble, you should also go to the people from the Ministry of Industry, how did you find your head? There must be some reason for this. I will ask them to inquire carefully later."

After saying this, the carriage has already arrived outside the quiet courtyard.Shen Jing stood up, not daring to look up at Zhao Heng, lowered his eyes to say goodbye to the two, and was about to get off the carriage, but was stopped by Zhao Heng: "Wait a minute."

Cao Feng is the most eye-catching, so he got up and went out of the carriage when he heard the words, passed by Shen Jing, patted his arm and said with a smile: "People have three urgencies. I will borrow your family's treasure land for a while."

Only Zhao Heng and Shen Jing were left in the carriage.

Shen Jing still lowered his eyes, Zhao Heng knocked on the kang table next to him: "Sit down."

Shen Jing went to sit down as she said, but still didn't say a word.Zhao Heng glanced at him, and sneered: "It's obvious that you hurt people, but you are so sick. Let other people see it, I'm afraid they will think that I am the one who started chaotically and ended up abandoning him."

Shen Jing smiled: "It's just that my mouth got angry, and I couldn't eat for a few days, so I lost some weight. It's already healed, so don't worry about it, Your Highness."

"You—" Zhao Heng choked on his words, "Don't you have nothing to say to me?"

Shen Jing was silent for a moment after hearing the words, and then said in a low voice: "...I am the one who failed Your Highness."

After a pause, eyes still lowered, he said with difficulty: "I hope His Highness will take good care of himself in the future, don't-"

"Quiet." Zhao Heng interrupted him, his face became more serious, "You are sure that I will get married sooner or later, aren't you?"

Quiet and silent.

"I promised you that you would not marry a concubine, so you definitely won't." Zhao Heng suddenly stood at Yu, Xi, Tuan, Team, Du, Jia.Standing up, his face was ashen, and he walked in front of Shen Jing, "I understand the thoughts of brother Huang, he will definitely love me. If you hadn't been there that day and said such things, today and now, brother Huang would have already agreed. It's me—why can't you trust me once?"

Shen Jing heard the words, raised her head and looked at Zhao Heng: "Why am I where, doesn't Your Highness know?"

"..."

"Your Highness threatens the Holy Majesty, the Holy Majesty has no way to persuade you. But the Holy Majesty has a way, and asked me to persuade Your Highness—"

"You didn't have to persuade me!"

"Your Highness means," Shen Jing raised his voice and interrupted him, "do you want me to stand by and watch you, kneeling in the ice and snow for me, enduring the bone-piercing pain?"

"..."

"Your Highness," Shen Jing let out a long sigh, clenching his hands into fists against his chest, "Don't you think that I have no heart? Look at me now—since I came out of the palace that day, as long as I think of you kneeling in the snow here, spoiling yourself like that—"

His voice choked, and after a long pause, he said in a low voice, "Your Highness is kneeling there, do you feel that you are the only one suffering?"

Zhao Heng was stunned by what he said, stepped forward to hold Shen Jing's hand, and lowered his voice: "...Miao'an."

After being silent for a long time, he sighed softly, "Don't you understand now, Your Highness? Today, His Highness is kneeling there, and the Holy One has a way to get His Highness to get up. In the future, His Highness does not want to marry a wife, and His Highness will have a way to make His Highness agree. His Highness feels If you know His Majesty, why doesn't Your Majesty know His Highness?"

He broke away from Zhao Heng's hand, stood up, and walked around Zhao Heng: "Your Highness, you and I... that's it, it's a good get-together and break-up."

He lifted up the curtain with one hand, but Zhao Heng held his arm from behind: "If I say I won't get married, I won't marry. Shen Jing, remember Gu's words, let's look back. If the time comes, I will always marry you." If there is no concubine, then you will come back to me after all."

Shen Jing listened to him silently, without responding, broke free from his hand, wrapped his cloak and stepped out of the carriage.
