When Chu Yuezhi returned to the house, he even forgot to take the candle, and hurried into the inner room.

Si Yuanting had already sat up from the bed, he was not conscious but instinctively looking for Chu Yuezhi.

"Si Jiu." Chu Yue returned to the side of the bed in three steps and took two steps. As soon as he stretched out his hand, Si Yuanting grabbed it, and then he was pulled into a familiar embrace.

"Why did you get up and where did you go?" Si Yuanting seemed to be in a low mood again, and the strength of his arms around Chu Yuezhi was a little out of control, and his voice was deep and low: "Why don't you stay in my arms for a long time?" with?"

Ever since they confessed their love to each other, Chu Yuezhi has fallen asleep in his arms every night. As long as he opens his eyes, he can see Chu Yuezhi. With a firm embrace, he can feel calm in his heart, but he just woke up suddenly and found that Chu Yuezhi was not in his arms, nor by his side, he almost thought that everything during this time was just a dream of his, and now that Chu Yuezhi woke up, he still didn't recognize him, let alone love him, and he was still floating in purgatory It is about to be completely swallowed by the dark swamp.

Half of Chu Yuezhi's body was trapped in Si Yuanting's arms, he was tightly hugged and unable to move, he let Si Yuanting hold him without struggling, and said in a soft voice: "If you come, call me immediately." Get up and pick it up, I see that you are rarely asleep, so I didn't wake you up."

Si Yuanting was quiet for a while when he heard the words, and when he spoke again, the faint tremor was no longer in his voice, and he asked, "What happened?"

"Military newspaper, it's not a big deal, I just got up to pick it up because it came in a hurry." Chu Yuezhi felt the strength on Si Yuanting's arm gradually relax, and then turned around in Si Yuanting's arms and hugged him with both hands Back, said: "Sorry, I scared you, didn't I?"

Si Yuanting lowered his head to find Chu Yuezhi's lips, and as soon as he kissed him, he poked his tongue into Chu Yuezhi's mouth and entangled him until his breath was taken away before he let go, saying: "I know this request is unreasonable. , but you don’t suddenly disappear from my side.”

Chu Yuezhi calmed down his panting breath, leaned his head on Si Yuanting's shoulder, and said, "It's not unreasonable, it's all right. Don't be afraid, Si Jiu, Chu Qi will always be by Si Jiu's side."

The dim light of the Ye Mingzhu is like the light that comes on when fireflies gather together, with a faint green color, although it cannot illuminate the entire inner room, it is enough for Si Yuanting and Chu Yuezhi to see each other.

Turning over and pressing Chu Yuezhi back on the bed, Si Yuanting loosened his collar, and scratched the long scar on his collarbone with his cool fingertips, as if he was caressing his most precious treasure.He often has some dark thoughts about Chu Yuezhi, such as imprisoning Chu Yuezhi, or letting Chu Yuezhi be in his hands day and night or having fun under him, because he can't lose, so He wanted to use all the means he knew to destroy Chu Yuezhi.

But he has been restraining all the time, he knows that no matter what he thinks, Chu Yuezhi will not reject him, so he works harder to make himself a normal person.His Chu Qi was so obedient in front of him, how could he be willing to destroy this beam of light with his own hands.

Chu Yuezhi lay under Si Yuanting, raised his right hand and pressed his palm against Si Yuanting's too thin cheek, and asked, "Did you have a nightmare?"

He never asked Si Yuanting what he dreamed about, but he knew that Si Yuanting had been having nightmares repeatedly.Si Yuanting didn't say anything, and he didn't want to ask more to avoid Si Yuanting's discomfort. He thought that those nightmares haunting Si Yuanting were all related to the past 21 years, and he thought about the long years when he left Si Yuanting behind. He was also afraid of hearing what Si Yuanting said to him in person, afraid that he would not be able to bear breaking down and crying in front of Si Yuanting, and also afraid that he would not be able to bear the pain of regret.

But if Si Yuanting wanted to tell him, he would definitely not run away.

"I often hear the cries and screams of family members who have passed away." Si Yuanting propped himself up on the bed with one hand, and his long hair fell down, casting a shadow on his face. When my father was dragged away, I was overturned to the ground by the officers and soldiers. I crawled towards my father. My mother wanted to hold my father and hug me. Finally, she chose to throw herself on the ground. She hugged me into her arms, that was the last time she hugged me, she cried hoarsely at that time, but the officers and soldiers still tore our mother and child apart, I watched my mother being dragged away but could do nothing.”

Chu Yuezhi listened silently, but couldn't help but shake Si Yuanting's hand.

"After entering the palace again, I have always hated the way others looked at me. Many times, I wanted to destroy this face, but I always remember that you like my face, and I also know that I will rely on you in the future. This face climbs up." Si Yuanting actually hated his own face very much, but he had to hold back his contempt and contempt for using this face to achieve his goals, "I became the kind of person I hated the most. I can't sleep well, and I dream that those people are rushing towards me, but I can't escape. Occasionally, I dream of my father and other elders, and I will be reprimanded for embarrassing the Si family. "

Touch Chu Yuezhi's neck along his collarbone, fold his fingers and palms together to form a control gesture, pause for a while, then let go and continue to caress Chu Yuezhi's face upwards, with his fingertips across the thin lips and straight lips. Straight nose, finally hold down the end of the peach-blossom eyes and scrape across the brow bone, Si Yuanting withdrew his hand and said: "Chu Qi, I don't know when it will be better, but as long as you don't give up on me, I will definitely do my best as you wish."

Even if he knew that Chu Yuezhi didn't mind, he would still feel ashamed. He knew his demons and illnesses better than anyone else, and he always believed that Chu Yuezhi should have someone better to match him.He is so contradictory, and also so afraid of being given up by Chu Yuezhi.

Because I have seen the light again, it is even more unacceptable to return to darkness again.

"You don't have to promise me again and again, I don't need you to force yourself too much." Chu Yuezhi's eyes were sour, and hearing Si Yuanting tell him these things with his own ears was far more painful than hearing it from others, but At this moment, he couldn't help feeling a little relieved in his heart. Physician Lu told him that it was far better for Si Yuanting to say it than to keep it in his heart, "Si Jiu, you don't have to force yourself to get better as soon as possible. Let's just let it be. If you are afraid, tell me, I will listen to you carefully, if you don't want to talk, it's okay, I will wait until you want to tell me things I don't know, And then, just like now, I'll be right next to you where you can reach out and touch."

Si Yuanting bowed his head and kissed Chu Yuezhi's forehead, then kissed the scar on his collarbone, and then grabbed Chu Yuezhi's waist and pressed him into his arms.

He once deeply resented God for giving him such a hopeless fate, but now he no longer dares to resent, no matter how painful and painful the first half of his life was, at least now, God has finally returned Chu Yuezhi to him.

The bed curtain fell, and the two people's pajamas were scattered in a corner illuminated by the faint light. They blended their bodies and skins but not for lust/desire, they just wanted to feel each other's true temperature and confirm each other's love through kisses and hugs. exist.

It didn't take too long for Zhou Ji to find out who had dealt with Shi Huai.

When Shi Huai was interrogated again, the first list he provided had already been submitted to Chu Yuezhi.

According to this list, Si Yuanting sent Dongchang guards to arrest several officials involved in the case and bring them to justice, as well as the rich Jia who were involved in the case in the capital were also imprisoned in Dongchang, and the women bought by these people were also arrested. rescued.Shortly after the officials and the rich Jia were imprisoned in the East Factory, the family members of these rich Jia tried to use silver to accommodate them, and Chu Yuezhi ordered those boxes of silver sent to be counted and recorded into the national treasury, and then A notice was issued to increase the crime of trying to bribe important officials of the court. If the crime is committed again, the whole family will be sent to prison. After the case is closed, they will be sentenced according to the law.As soon as this announcement came out, no one dared to think that as long as they gave enough silver, they would be able to make big and small things go away.

It was still the same interrogation room, but this time the person standing behind Chu Yuezhi became Zhou Ji.

Wei Yunxiao had already received Chu Yuezhi's mission, and left the capital temporarily after Fu Xingyun.

Shi Huai has been pampered and pampered all these years, and with his advanced age, he obviously can't bear the disaster of prison. In just a few days, his hair, which was originally black, has all turned gray, and even his body has lost a lot of weight. There are many wrinkles, making him look as if he has suddenly aged ten years again.

Chu Yuezhi was sitting on the chair, seeing Shi Huai kneeling, he raised his hand and threw the pair of golden walnuts in front of Shi Huai, saying: "I have a question these few days, I wonder if Shi Shangshu can answer it for me?" two?"

Seeing the pair of flawless golden walnuts, Shi Huai's face changed slightly, and after a while he said: "The old minister doesn't know what questions Prince An has, so he dare not rashly think that he has the ability to solve Prince An's doubts. "

Si Yuanting was also still sitting on the chair at the side of the interrogation room. He casually turned the finger on his thumb and said, "Shi Shangshu answered so cautiously, it doesn't seem like he doesn't know what Prince An's question is."

Shi Huai didn't dare to raise his head, but leaned over to look at the pair of golden walnuts thrown in front of him, and said: "The old minister is dull, please tell Prince An and the company."

Yue Mo thought it was ridiculous that Shi Huai was still trying to fool around until now, Chu Yuezhi sneered coldly, and said: "This pair of golden walnuts, the king thought they were made of pure gold at first, but later found out that this pair of golden walnuts is actually stronger than gold. It is even harder, even if it was put on the desk by the king, it did not leave any marks on the surface. Under suspicion, I asked someone to identify it, and then I realized that it was an alloy rather than pure gold. This pair of golden walnuts belonged to Shi Shangshu's mansion. I don’t know if Shi Shangshu knows about the things that were found, the source of the gold that was smelted, and why it took so much trouble to make alloys?”

"Old minister..." Gritting his teeth, Shi Huai squeezed out two words. Shi Huai knelt down on the ground and searched his stomach for a long while, but he couldn't think of an excuse. Cold sweat oozed from the corner of his forehead.
