I'm a bully in troubled times

Xun Shu eloquently left Jiang Yu with two pages of paper, densely packed with small characters.Starting from the death of Jiang Yu's parents, he briefly talked about what he had done over the years and the preparations he had made for the reform, and then introduced in detail the drawbacks he had concluded that Yan State needed to reform, and the decrees he was implementing now.

Of course, these things cannot be explained in a few words.There was a whole cabinet of books in Xun Shu's study, all related to this, and all of them were left to Jiang Yu.

"Uncle knows that he is ashamed of you, but as a subject of the Yan Kingdom, as your father's son... May you complete the career that uncle did not compete for, carry out the new policy, reform the ills, and revitalize my great Yan... Uncle dies without regret. "

At the end, Xun Shu expressed the hope that Jiang Yu could continue the reform.

"Your uncle is very ill, but he is still talking about you. Every time he says a word, he has to rest for a while. When I finish writing this letter, he falls asleep again." Xun Rong wiped Tears said.

"What's wrong with uncle?" Jiang Yu asked.

"The imperial doctor said that it was caused by overwork." Xun Rong said.

Getting sick from overwork... Just like Jiang Yu thought.

He solemnly folded the letter Xun Shu left him and took it back into the envelope, put it in his arms properly, and bowed to Xun Rong to salute: "Jiang Yu has remembered all the instructions of my uncle, don't worry, Auntie, Jiang Yu will never leave." I will not live up to my uncle's entrustment, and I must fulfill my uncle's will."

Xun Rong said: "I don't understand what happened in the court, but what your uncle said is naturally correct. Since you have this kind of heart, your uncle has the knowledge, and he has closed his eyes."

Now that Xun Shu is dead, the funeral has to be done.

According to the rules of this era, women cannot lead funerals, and Xun Bowen is still young, so Jiang Yu and Xun Rong made a decision and decided that Xun Bowen would lead the funeral, and Jiang Yu would help him.

The funeral etiquette was cumbersome and complicated, and the hierarchy was strict. After Jiang Yu took over, he began to proceed in an orderly manner.Jiang Yu first ordered people to report the funeral to the Rong family and the colleagues who were close to Xun Shu during his lifetime. At noon, Xun Shu's relatives and friends put on condolences, came to Xun Shu's residence to express condolences, and presented Xun Shu's clothes and quilts, called To flint.

Afterwards, you have to bathe Xunshu and put the food in Xunshu's mouth, that is, put pearls, jade, shellfish, rice, etc. in Xunshu's mouth, so as not to go to the underworld to starve. clothes, three sets in total.After attacking the corpse, there are Xiaolian, Dalian and so on.From the jade in the mouth to the funeral clothes, from the coffin to the cemetery, different grades are different.

This is also the first time that Jiang Yu has organized a funeral for someone. The complicated etiquette, coupled with the Xun Rong and Xun Bowen who cried day and night, made Jiang Yu tired and heavy every day. up.

The so-called crying day and night means that Xun Bowen and Xun Rong's families pay homage and cry every day before sunrise and sunset.Jiang Yu listened too much, so he couldn't help being influenced.Fortunately, he only takes hemp, so he doesn't have to cry hoarsely like the mother and son.

Halfway through the funeral, after Xun Shu was sacrificed before sunset one day, Jiang Yu returned to his own mansion from Xun's mansion, and the carriage stopped suddenly at the gate of the mansion.

"My lord!" Gongsun Ke seemed to have seen something, and his voice was a little surprised.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Yu opened the curtain and looked out, only to see the thin figure of that man standing in front of his house in the twilight.

Jiang Yu was dazed, thinking that he was hallucinating.Taking a closer look, the man was standing motionless beside the stone lion, it was not a hallucination.

In the season of late spring and early summer, the evening wind was very gentle, neither hot nor cold, gently brushing Qi Ranming's hair and clothes, his whole body almost blended into the twilight.He carried a sword on his back and a bone flute hanging from his waist, but after a month or so, Jiang Yu felt that he seemed to have lost weight again.

He looked travel-stained, as if he came here in a hurry, with a tired look and a little sadness on his face, just looking at him quietly.

"My lord?" Gongsun Ke didn't know what happened between the two, so he asked Jiang Yu as if asking.

Jiang Yu lowered his eyes, got off the carriage, and ordered, "Go in."

Although he got off the carriage, Jiang Yu didn't take another look at Qi Ranming, and walked straight to the gate, while the coachman drove the carriage and left through the side door.

Seeing Jiang Yu approaching him, Qi Ranming was a little nervous, and involuntarily touched the flute on his waist, lowered his eyes, and waited for Jiang Yu to ask him something.But unexpectedly, Jiang Yu bypassed him and walked to the gate.

Seeing that Jiang Yu was about to walk in.

"Jiang Yu!"

Just as Jiang Yu crossed the threshold, he heard Qi Ranming's anxious voice.

Jiang Yu's footsteps paused slightly, and when he turned around, he saw Qi Ranming looking at him with flustered eyes, which made Jiang Yu a little afraid to look at him, as if he had done something wrong and was sorry for Qi Ranming, so he avoided his sight, faintly Asked: "What are you doing here?"

Now that you have left, there is no need to come again.

Qi Ranming was a little taken aback, and didn't understand why Jiang Yu asked such a question.He seemed to want to go forward, but stopped again, hesitated for a while, lowered his head and asked in a low voice, "Why did you leave without saying goodbye?"

"I left without saying goodbye?" Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows.

Qi Ranming didn't know what Jiang Yu's reaction meant. He was still belatedly aware that Jiang Yu misunderstood that he wanted to leave.

"Isn't it?" Qi Ranming stood there almost at a loss, as if he was the one who was abandoned, and Jiang Yu actually saw a bit of grievance from it.

He couldn't see him like this, so he frowned as if giving up, and said, "Forget it, come in and talk."

Qi Ranming's eyes lit up slightly, a little joyful, he stepped forward a few steps, walked to Jiang Yu's side, and walked in with him.

The two were silent all the way, Jiang Yu originally planned that since Qi Ranming came and went without a trace, and he didn't have the energy to watch him come and go again and again, then forget it.But when Qi Ranming came to look for him again, Jiang Yu really lost his temper, so he just kept silent, waiting for Qi Ranming to talk about his coming.

But Qi Ranming has always been clumsy with words, and at the moment he is in a nervous mood, he doesn't know where to start.All the way, he secretly looked at Jiang Yu with his eyes, and when Jiang Yu looked at him, he looked away again, pretending to be looking at the road.

Until Qi Ranming followed Jiang Yu to the door of the bedroom, Qi Ranming didn't speak.

Jiang Yu rested his hand on the door as he pushed the door, turned his head and looked Qi Ranming up and down, and said, "What do you want to follow here?"

The bedroom is a special place after all, Jiang Yu's words were almost teasing and mocking.

"..." Qi Ranming felt ashamed, but didn't want to just leave in such a vague way, and asked, "Jiang Yu...do you misunderstand me?"

"Misunderstanding?" Jiang Yu opened the door and walked in, Qi Ranming still followed.

"Light up the lights." Jiang Yu said.

Qi Ranming lit the lamp as he said, and when he lit the lamp, he remembered: "Can't you see clearly again?"

"The room is relatively dark, a little blurry." Jiang Yu said.

After lighting the lamp, Jiang Yu pulled up a chair and sat down, leaned into the back of the chair, rubbed his temple with his right hand, sighed, and said, "Tell me, what are you doing here?"

"Are you tired?" Qi Ranming approached Jiang Yu, and before his hand touched Jiang Yu, he was slapped away.

Qi Ranming's hands froze in mid-air, a little stiff, only listening to Jiang Yu say:

"If you keep going back and forth like this, I don't have time to make trouble with you."

"What back and forth?" Qi Ranming was a little puzzled.

Hearing this, Jiang Yu raised his eyes and took a closer look at Qi Ranming. Seeing that he really didn't understand, he wondered if he had misunderstood something, and said, "Explain and explain what you have been doing these days."

Qi Ranming paused, and replied: "I didn't know where to go, so I walked around, and when I heard the news of the death of the ruling lord, I rushed over here."

After Qi Ranming left Quwo, he walked slowly along the road from Quwo to Jicheng, and when he was tired, he found a place to rest.It wasn't until the news of Xun Shu's death spread from Yan State that Qi Ranming heard it, and realized that Jiang Yu hurried back to the country probably because of receiving the news of Xun Shu.

But even so, he couldn't think of any reason why Jiang Yu would leave without saying goodbye, leaving him alone in Quwo.If Jiang Yu had told himself earlier, he would not have insisted on going to Shi Xiang's mansion to go there.

"Since you don't know where to go, where did you plan to go when you packed your bags that night?"

"Pack your bags?" Qi Ranming was stunned for a moment before he suddenly understood, "You think I'm packing my bags and leaving?"

Jiang Yu: ...Isn't it? ? ?

Really misunderstood?

Kind of embarrassing.

"That night I was just..." Qi Ranming paused, his voice was lower, a little guilty, "I was just looking for night clothes that night... I wanted to go to Shi Xiang's mansion to teach him a lesson."

Who let him assassinate you.Qi Ranming thought.

Jiang Yu: "..."

This oolong made a big fuss, fortunately he has been sad for so long, thinking that Qi Ranming's heart is still uncertain, he still yearns for a life of dissolute love and freedom, he is disappointed in himself, just like he was disappointed in Ying Xi and Ji Zhong and left them. he.

Qi Ranming lowered his head and continued to explain in a low voice: "...I was afraid that you would be angry and not allow me to go, so I didn't tell you."

Well, the previous misunderstanding should be nothing.

Jiang Yu murmured: "I thought you were so angry that you wanted to leave because of my indiscriminate killing..."

"..." Qi Ranming raised his eyes and said, "No way."

"I said I wouldn't go."

This time it was me who made the mistake, and left him alone in Quwo without asking.Sure enough, when you are in love, you should communicate more, and you can't guess by yourself.

"...Sorry." Jiang Yu said, "I misunderstood."

Qi Ranming hesitated for a moment and said, "Aren't you angry because I interfered with you?"

Jiang Yu: ... the co-author, did he think that he would not want him because of this anger?

"No." Jiang Yu said in almost embarrassment, "I'm mad at you for acting on your own before you recovered from your injury and didn't tell me."

Qi Ranming: "I'm sorry."

Jiang Yu: "..."

"In that case, if you don't dislike it, you can continue to live here. It's just that I'm busy these days, so I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you."

Jiang Yu avoided the affairs of Ji's mansion to avoid further disputes, and ended the conversation briefly.

Qi Ranming thought about it for a long time, and choked out a word of comfort: "My condolences."

Jiang Yu shook his head: "...It's just that the etiquette is too complicated, and I can't bear it. It will be great when I can reduce some funeral rites."

Qi Ranming said softly: "The ruling lord must have entrusted you with the reform, if you find it cumbersome, just change it."

"That's a good idea." Jiang Yu smiled, "However, it's not easy to change the funeral ceremony. It needs to be carefully planned."

The reunion after a small farewell, but the two did not feel better than newlyweds.Perhaps the misunderstanding that occurred before was too embarrassing.Qi Ranming's eyes were fixed on him all the time, making Jiang Yu feel pressured and guilty.

He was tired all day, thinking that Qi Ranming was also tired from traveling all the way, so he said: "If you are hungry, go eat something, rest, if you have anything to say, we can talk about it in two days."

"En." Qi Ranming nodded, and was about to leave when Jiang Yu stopped him suddenly, and Qi Ranming turned his head.

Jiang Yu said to him, "Come here."

"What's the matter?" When Qi Ranming asked, he had already taken a few steps towards Jiang Yu, and stopped a foot in front of Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu looked up at him: "Come here a little more."

The distance was too close, which made Qi Ranming a little uncomfortable, but he still got closer.

Jiang Yu raised her hand, put her palm on the back of Qi Ranming's neck, rubbed the skin of his neck with her fingertips, and pressed slightly with her hand, forcing Qi Ranming to lower her head.

Qi Ranming put his hands on the armrest of the chair and bent down.Until the faces of the two were so close that even the fine hairs on their faces could be seen clearly.

Jiang Yu caressed Qi Ranming's side face, looked into his eyes, and said in a low voice, "You said so, I won't leave."

The scorching breath hit Qi Ranming's face, and Qi Ranming's Adam's apple moved.

Jiang Yu tilted his head slightly, and pressed Qi Ranming's head on his shoulder with more force, then he lowered his head, and took a hard bite on the side of Qi Ranming's neck, leaving a deep tooth mark, and licked the teeth with the tip of his tongue. print.

Qi Ranming frowned in pain, but heard Jiang Yu say in his ear: "Even if you want to leave in the future, I won't allow it."

Qi Ranming was held down by him and couldn't move, so he let out a low "hmm".
