Shen Langgui

Chapter 36

When Xun He wakes up, the familiar bamboo-wood bed top frame and quilt are still as soft and warm as ever. If it wasn't for the slight throbbing pain in his right leg reminding him of the fact that Xun He was injured, the shock of falling into the water before falling asleep would have seemed like nothing but a dream.

But not entirely true.After all, when he was exhausted, he saw Shen Yue's face.

how is this possible.

He doesn't know how to swim, so how could he dive into the water to save people?

More importantly, he had already died on the battlefield, and his soul returned to heaven, how could he still have a physical body to save himself from the fire?

Fantasy is born from the heart.When his life was hanging by a thread, the person in this world that he most wanted to see again was indeed him.

Xun He smiled wryly.

Just as he was struggling to get up, Yinzhang just came in and said happily, "Master, you are awake!"

Xun He nodded, and apologized: "I'm sorry, I made you false alarm again."

Yinzhang was really angry: "If you really put us at ease, you won't run into the river when you are chasing the bill." Before Xun He could answer, Yinzhang said again: "By the way, a man just came outside. The man named Qi Gong said he wanted to see the young master. I didn't know him, so I told him to wait outside..."

Before the introduction could be finished, Xun He exclaimed, "What?! Duke Qi? Hurry up! Help me out?"

"My lord, your legs..."

"What's waiting outside is the current sage! Why don't you care about your legs, even your life is gone!"

"What!..." Yinzhang shuddered all over his body, quickly helped Xun He get up to wash and dress up, took out his spare crutches, and Xun He limped to the front yard with a stick on his head.

The flower hall is spacious, and there are huanghuali tables and chairs on three sides of the middle hall. In the first armchair on the left, there is a person sitting upright. He wears a rose-colored narrow-sleeved cross-neck blouse and a tall scarf on his head. A solemn solemnity.

Who else but Chengdi.

"I've met Duke Qi!" Xun He threw away his crutches and knelt down on one knee to salute. Emperor Cheng helped him up, speaking in a hearty voice, saying that you don't need to be formal if you want to find He.

The boy Liu Er was serving tea, and Xun He stopped drinking it when he saw this: "Go down!" Then he told the introduction, "Go and get the old Ban Zhang from the Bogu shelf in my study and drink it."

Liu Er was overwhelmed by the sudden drink, but before he could be surprised, he let the introduction drag it down.

Emperor Cheng shook his head helplessly: "I just moved here where I wanted to go. I feel disturbed by your effort."

"Duke Qi is serious!"

Xunhe asked Emperor Cheng to sit down, and he wanted to stand by the side, but was pushed down by Emperor Cheng.

"When you're away from home, you can save on the complicated etiquette." Chengdi sighed again while speaking, "Xiantao is lazy, he only prepared Pu'er for tea, but you misunderstood me, thinking that I only drank Pu'er."

"Where did you come from, Mr. Qi? I don't know tea, so I got the Dongting beauty fragrance newly picked this spring. As everyone knows, although green tea has miraculous effects in relieving sleepiness, it consumes energy and should not be drunk. Pu'er is warm in nature and it is in the summer In this season, it is really a good drink to produce body fluid and cool off the heat.”

What he said made Emperor Cheng clap his hands and smile: "What a sharp-toothed Boss Qiu, he is worthy of being a businessman, and he can persuade people well. Hey, why did you bring a walking stick and hurt your leg?"

Xun He put the crutches behind him and said nonchalantly, "It rained heavily yesterday, I sprained my ankle on the way home, it's fine."

Xunhe's gown covered his legs, Emperor Cheng couldn't see why, so he nodded: "Be careful in the future."

"Thank you, Duke Qi, for your concern." When Xun He said, he introduced Zhang and served tea.

Emperor Cheng took the teacup and asked casually, "How is the business recently?"

"The ones at home are just children's playhouses. Thanks to the holy family, Jiuwan has added hundreds of thousands of new weaving volumes this year. I dare not neglect, and plan to go to the south of the Yangtze River in the middle of the month to check this year's sericulture harvest and silk reeling."

Emperor Cheng nodded, and his eyes were empty: "Go to the south of the Yangtze River... that can be regarded as returning to the hometown."

Hearing this, Xun He's brows and eyes showed a sad look.Emperor Cheng noticed it and asked: "But remembering the old man?...General Shen died for the country, but unfortunately he couldn't even save the whole body. I can only express my regret by personally arranging for him to be buried with national ceremonies."

Xun He nodded: "General Shen has a soul in the sky, and he will definitely receive His Majesty's kindness. However, I am worried... there is another two."

"Oh? You talk about it."

Xun He hesitated for a while, and then said, "My worry is that I'm not worth it for Duke Qi."

Qi Gong was taken aback for a moment, then nodded in understanding, and said to Xun He, "It's okay for you to say it."

After receiving the consent of Emperor Cheng, Xun He continued: "The Holy Majesty suppressed the proposal of rebuilding the Great Wall to keep the northern captives under control, and instead negotiated peace and reopened the Chinese and Western commercial roads. This is an act of benefiting the people by increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, but it was criticized by the court. What a pity and a sigh!"

Duke Qi was helpless: "Even your own uncle doesn't approve of moving the capital, but you understand me. Fortune tricks people, my confidant is not in court, but in shopping malls."

Xun He secretly gritted his teeth, summoned up his courage, and said: "I have a merciless request, and I hope Duke Qi will accept it."

"You said."

"I heard that in the Shangri-La highlands in the extreme south, giant trees block out the sun, and old trees form forests, and the wood is hard, repelling insects and beetles. Now the Guangling Palace is under construction. Therefore, Xunhe asked to go south this time, and find this good tree for Daqi at his own expense."

Hearing this, Duke Qi patted the handrail several times before sighing "tsk tut": "It's hard for you to be thoughtful. It's just that there are many criticisms about moving the capital, I'm afraid..."

Before Qi Gong finished speaking, Xun He rushed to express his position: "Qi Gong treats ministers with a kindness that is as heavy as a mountain, and ministers should form a grass ring to repay. The mere service is just to do my best to share the worries of the king."

Duke Qi, who has always been prudent, stood up at this time and patted Xunhe on the shoulder: "Jiangning weaving happens to be vacant, and it happens that you are going south, so you can fill in this job. After you get an official title, it will be more convenient for you to do things in the future." .”

Hearing this, Xun He didn't care if his leg was broken, he got up and knelt down again: "Thank you Lord Long En."

Emperor Cheng picked him up, helped Xunhe to sit back to his original position, and said: "I'm going back to the palace. You don't have to send it far, go back and rest." After saying that, he went out of the flower hall and waited by the door The guards followed behind.

Citing the chapters to know the interest, without waiting for Xunhe's orders, he walked in front to lead the way.

When he stepped out of the Qiu Mansion, a man wearing a straw hat came towards him. When he brushed him, Duke Qi seemed to have noticed something. He stopped in his steps, and his voice was clear, but he gave an order: "Stop."

The brawny man shivered, but he still obediently settled down.

Qi Gong moved his steps back and turned back on the stairs.

The reckless man didn't move at all, his hat was lowered to cover his face.

Duke Qi only saw a messy mustache under the Ruo Li. After a long time, Duke Qi seemed to be looking forward to it but also very anxious. His voice trembled slightly, and he ordered: "Raise your head."

The reckless man stalemate for a moment, finally let out a helpless sigh, simply took off his hat, and raised his head generously;

"Don't admit it, it's me, Your Majesty."

Duke Qi opened his eyes wide open.

Yinzhang was so frightened that he staggered and almost fell down the steps.

Unexpectedly, Shen Yue did not hide the slightest bit, showing off to the public generously.

"You!" Emperor Cheng, who had always been calm and calm, was flushed with anger at this moment. He pointed at Shen Yue's facade and couldn't swear for a long time. Finally, he ordered the guard behind him angrily: "Give me this bully who is lying to the sky and crossing the sea." Next, judge the crime according to the law!"

Yinzhang returned to the thatched house in a daze.

Xun He saw something wrong with the girl at a glance, and asked, "What's wrong? Emperor Cheng has gone back?"

Yin Zhang nodded.

"Then what's the reason for your distraught look?"

Yinzhang shook his head.

Xun He hid the account book, propped himself up, looked misty and hesitant, and asked Yin Zhang, "Who saved me yesterday?"

As if being stabbed in the middle, Yinzhang clenched his fists in his sleeves, turned his eyes, and thought about how to respond: "...the only one who knows how to get water in the mansion is Liu Er, the young man, and you still expect Peng Yu to get into the water?"

The light in Xun He's eyes dimmed instantly, he nodded numbly, and replied: "That's right."

Sure enough, it was my own illusion.

From then on, there was really no him in the world.

Yinzhang peeked at Xunhe a few times, and gritted his teeth secretly: It is a good thing not to know the whereabouts of that person, and I must not let the young master bother me any more.
