Shen Langgui

Then Xun He went out to fetch things, only Shen Yue and Zi Chong were left in Nanmu Hall.

Shen Yue had a strange thought just now.Zichong is Xunhe's only elder now, and now he and Xunhe are considered husband and wife, so for Shen Yue, seeing Zichong is equivalent to meeting... his in-laws.

"Ayue? Ayue?" Zi Chong yelled several times but there was no response. When he looked carefully, he found the corners of Shen Yue's lips twitching, "Hey, what are you thinking about!"

"Ah?!" Shen Yue was taken aback, "No...it's nothing. That... Zichong, it was a hard journey..."

Zichong: "..." A normal Shen Yue wouldn't ask such a question at all, Zichong didn't want to dwell on this matter, so he changed the subject, "Ayue, this time, thank you too."

"Oh. Ah? Thanks for what?"

Zichong: "..." After coughing twice, Zichong said, "During the time you stayed in Yongzhou, the people you entrusted took good care of you, so although you said you were relegated, you didn't suffer much."

Shen Yue finally returned to normal, nodded and said: "That's good, otherwise Ah Li will be very worried about you."

"Speaking of Xun He, it can be seen that he is very happy to meet this time."

"Yeah." Shen Yue knew that Zi Chong's way of playing cards was unreasonable, and he was afraid that he would turn to the old score in the next sentence.

Unexpectedly, Zi Chong's next sentence was: "Xun He followed you, I don't worry."

"...Really!?" Shen Yue suddenly had mixed feelings, after all, Zi Chong knew something about what hurt Xun He back then.

"It was back when I was in Suzhou and Hangzhou, this child confessed to me about you. Now you are together again..."

"He told you?" Xun He is unlikely to mention the reunion to others.

Zichong waved his hands: "Even if you don't say it, you two can't hide your eyes and manners. Xunhe has many problems, but he still has his cuteness. The most rare thing about him is his shrewd nature, but this shrewdness never Don't use it to deal with relatives and friends. On the contrary, when you have conflicts with your closest relatives, Xun He would rather wrong himself than argue. My brother-in-law has this temperament, and Xun He inherited him."

Shen Yue suddenly realized why Xun He didn't justify anything six years ago and allowed himself to spoil him, and finally kicked him out.

Taking a sip of tea, Zichong continued: "Xunhe once told me that when he was in Pengmen, he fought with others. Although he won in the end, he didn't feel the pleasure of victory afterwards. On the contrary, he fell into endless guilt. , this makes him feel more tormented than losing a fight. Therefore, as long as it is not about survival, Xun He would rather give in."

"The time has passed, and 30 years have passed in the blink of an eye. At the beginning, I watched the birth of the two brothers Xunhe."

"Two brothers?" Xun He seldom recalled the past, Shen Yue vaguely remembered that Xun He mentioned once that he had an elder brother who died young.

"Yes, Xun He also has a brother who is a twin. It's a pity that my brother-in-law protects him wholeheartedly. In order to prevent assassins, he traded his son with the crown prince. In the end, the crown prince, who is now the emperor, survived. Can be found He's elder brother died at the hands of the assassin. Xun He's life was saved by crying."

"How to say?"

"Although the two brothers are exactly the same, but the younger brother is squeamish and loves to cry. The brother-in-law was afraid of side effects, so he exchanged the quiet and well-behaved elder brother with the prince. Hey, Xun Yue was born beautiful and has a good temper. The princess couldn't put it down back then. Unfortunately, she said no." Gone.……"

Outside the Nanmu Hall, Bi Liantian lit a light cigarette.Personnel is bleak, looking back on his years.

"In what year did Xun He's brother die?" Shen Yue thought for a moment and asked cautiously.

Zichong withdrew his thoughts: "It's... the [-]th year of Xihe."

Shen Yue nodded: "In that year, during Emperor Wen's southern tour, he stayed at Prince Xian's Mansion for a few days, and King Xian held a feast for this purpose. All prominent officials from Suzhou, Hangzhou and other places were invited, and the Shen family was also invited. List."

"With the momentum of the Shen family back then, King Xian must not be missed. But Ayue, why are you mentioning this?" Zi Chong was puzzled.

The cause and effect are intertwined, Shen Yue's eyes showed a little sadness, and said: "I was 12 years old back then, and I attended this banquet with my parents. During the banquet, I sneaked to the back garden of the palace to play, and saw a crying baby under a tree. The adult's introduction to this child is almost the same as what you just said. So, if there are no accidents, the baby I saw is Xun He."

What Shen Yue said shocked Zi Chong, who had always been calm.

It just so happened that Xun He came back after fetching things, besides gold and silver, there were also a lot of medicinal ingredients, and then he continued to remind him.

Zichong sighed: "Nephew, you are younger than me, but you understand the way of being an official better than me. In this regard, uncle is a younger generation."

Shen Yue didn't care to pay attention to the conversation between the two of them, and let himself fall into reverie: If Xiao Xun He was really taken away back then, would the ups and downs and sufferings of Xun He's first half of his life be avoided afterwards?
