Shen Zhen panicked for a long time and didn't go away, Lu Yankan reached out and hugged the person on his lap.
"Shen Zhen." He stroked her back and said, "What did you dream about?"
In fact, when he opened his mouth to ask this sentence, he was very afraid, she had the same dream as his own.
"Don't be afraid, speak slowly."
Her eyes were slightly red, she took a deep breath, and said, "I dreamed of A-Niang."
"Well, then what?" Lu Yan continued to coax.
"She's in this room."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Yan looked at Shen Zhen with a complicated look. With him, is there really so much pressure
"anything else?"
Shen Zhen shook his head.
She couldn't say the rest.
"Haven't you heard of it? Dreams are the opposite." Lu Yan smiled.
Shen Zhen looked up at him.
Lu Yan grabbed her little hand and said, "I bought Liu Fangzhai's dim sum for you." After that, Lu Yan reached out and took the dim sum box on the round stool.
Shen Zhen took it.
"Get up and eat."
She was very worried this night, and Lu Yan could see that if she just dreamed of her mother, she would definitely not be scared like this.
Maybe Shen Zhen didn't even know that she had the habit of talking in her sleep. It's not that Lu Yan hasn't heard her call someone at night.
However, compared to this time, it is probably different.
After washing, Lu Yan hugged her body, put her chin on her shoulder, and bit her ear, "Tell me if you have something, don't think about it alone."
"I see." Shen Zhen said.
Shen Zhen's eyes are extremely beautiful, like gold foil has been sprinkled on the lake. Although Lu Yan occasionally felt that she was more pitiful when she cried, she really cried.
In the end he was reluctant.
Before turning off the lights, Lu Yan pinched the tip of her nose, neither light nor heavy, like a gentle reminder.
Shen Zhen didn't hide, let him play with it.
He stopped, and she lowered her head to sort out the duvets of the two of them.
She didn't want to say it, and he didn't force her. After all, there are a lot of things between them, the timing is not right, once they say it, it will only become more complicated...
The room suddenly darkened, Shen Zhen turned back and forth, Lu Yan wrapped her body with his hands, and said helplessly: "Go to sleep."
After a long time, when she was breathing evenly, he sighed and murmured, "Wait..."
The night is dark, the night is long.
That night, Lu Yan also had a dream...
Surrounded by cicadas in summer, he looked along the gaps in the elm branches and leaves, and he saw Shen Zhen, the same man in white, standing in the depths of the jungle.
The man was much taller than her, and he didn't know what to say when he lowered his head, which caused a smile on her brows.
Everything in front of him was blurry and clear, his fists clenched tightly, unable to move an inch.
After a while, he saw the man's hand fall on her ear.
Lu Yan opened his eyes abruptly, turned his head sideways, and recalled the scenes in his dream in disbelief.
Glancing at her ears again.
"Ho!" Master Lu smiled at Fang Liang. No matter how scary her dreams were, they were all fake.
But what he dreamed was real.
Before dawn, Lu Yan got up.
Yang Zong bowed and said, "Master, the visitation rights of Marquis Yunyang have come down."
Lu Yan raised his eyebrows, "Prince does things very quickly."
—
Such news naturally reached the Li residence.
Originally the sky was sunny, but it rained torrentially, and the huge raindrops fell on the eaves, which sounded empty and desolate.
"Hey, I saw my father-in-law in a while, you know what to say,"
Shen Hao pursed her lips, she really didn't want to make excuses with him.
The screeching of the carriage continued towards, Li Di sat with Shen Zhuo, looked at her profile, and suddenly broke the silence.
"Shen family, don't you have to hang yourself on the tree in the East Palace?"
Shen Yan looked at him, "Master Li, now I'm more and more daring to say it."
Li Di smiled.
The carriage bypassed the crowded streets, passed through Zhuque Street, and slowly drove towards Dali Temple and Prison.
In front of the door stood two prison guards.
Shen Jiao lifted her skirt and got out of the car slowly, and after landing, she took off her hat.
The prison chief picked up the record and asked, "Who is coming?"
"Shen Wenqi's daughter, Shen Yan."
"Shen Wenqi's son-in-law, Li Di."
As soon as the words fell, Shen Yan couldn't help but glance at him, only to think that this scene was extremely ironic.
The prisoner led the way, and they slowly walked inside.
Dali Temple implements separate custody management, and people like the Marquis of Yunyang who have titles and have been ranked above the seventh rank need to be detained separately.
They stopped in front of a wooden door, and the prisoner said: "Only one person can enter at a time, and only for a quarter of an hour, who will be the first?"
Li Di frowned, took out the money bag from his chest, and stuffed it into the prisoner's hand, "I'll go in with her."
The prisoner pushed it back, and the purse fell to the ground with a "dang" sound.
At this time, Zhou Shuan happened to walk over calmly from another cell.
Upright and resolute, heroic.
The so-called high-ranking officials crush people to death, and when they meet an official like Zhou Shuan who is directly appointed by a sage and holds real power, it is true that Li Di is not allowed to show great authority here.
"Lord Zhou." Li Di edited.
Zhou Shuan bowed, picked up the money bag, and put it back in Li Di's hand. He didn't mock him, but said directly, "Li Shilang, this is the order of the saint."
Shen Yan turned her head and said, "Master Zhou, can I go in first?"
Zhou Shuan nodded, turned around and took the key to open the long lock.
In this special cell, there was only Marquis Yunyang. He was sitting on the couch, his white hair was a little messy. Although he was down, he couldn't hide his gentleness and elegance.
"Aye." Shen Yan walked over, her eyes immediately turned red, "How are you?"
To be honest, the situation here is obviously much better than she expected.
After staring at each other for a long time, Marquis Yunyang moved his fingers slightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "Hum."
He is in jail, his four children are out of jail.
The worry and yearning in his heart increased day by day, but he really saw it, but he didn't want his children to see him like this.
The Marquis of Yunyang raised his hand and folded his hair on his temples.
The Marquis of Yunyang pointed to the medicine jar on the table and said to Shen Yan, "Someone sent a doctor here a while ago."
Shen Yan was stunned.
A while ago, the sage had clearly not allowed anyone to visit, so he visited privately and sent a doctor to the prison. This crime is not small.
Yunyang Hou saw her stunned, his heart sank, and he said with difficulty: "Zhen'er, where is Shen Zhen?"
Shen Hao held back the tears that were churning in her chest again, and said softly: "His Royal Highness's illness has been cured, Aye, everything will pass."
Four eyes met, Yunyang Hou's lower lip trembled, "It's all Aye's fault."
When time was running out, Shen Yan asked directly, "Where is your original construction plan?"
"Hey, His Royal Highness will come tomorrow, you don't have to worry about these things." Yunyang Hou paused, then said, "You live your life well."
The prisoner reminded from the side, "The moment has come."
Shen Jiao clenched her fists tightly, put it in her father's ear and said, "Don't believe Li Di's words."
Shen Yao came out and Li Di went in.
Zhou Shu'an was reading several cases pending in the temple, and Shen Yan suddenly said, "I dare to ask Lord Zhou, how did the doctor come in a few days ago."
Zhou Shuan lowered his eyes and turned the page again, "Zhou once owed a favor and had to pay it back, so he let him in." To be able to speak his favoritism so frankly, one can imagine how confident this person is.
The entire Jin Dynasty could make Zhou Shuan owe favors, and Shen Jiao could count it to Lu Yan as well.
"Thank you Lord Zhou for letting me know." Shen Yan said.
There was silence all around.
I don't know why, just now I was inside, a quarter of an hour was so short, and now outside, a moment is extremely long.
Time passed slowly, and Zhou Shuan suddenly closed the case file in his hand and looked at Shen Yan, "Don't Mrs. Li owe me a favor too?"
Shen Yan frowned, "When?"
Zhou Shuan walked slowly to her side, his eyes darkened, and he said solemnly, "Medicine shop."
When it comes to mentioning this matter, Shen Yan's heart is blocked. It seems that it was really him who reported her to Jingzhao Mansion that day.
In fact, Shen Yan also knew in her heart that if she really poisoned Li Di, even if she could hide it for a while, she would not be able to hide it for the rest of her life.
She took a half step back and said lightly, "What happened that day was just a misunderstanding."
Zhou Shuan didn't expose her either, and said calmly, "Really."
A quarter of an hour has passed, and Li Di came out. His eyes swept away, just to see Zhou Shuan looking down at Shen Yan. The same man, Li Di knew that a beauty like Shen Yan, even if she became a wife, would not make people less interested.
He walked to Shen Zhuo's side, wrapped his arms around her waist, and said softly, "Hey, let's go."
Shen Yan's body froze and she stared at him, but Li Di's hand tightened.
After the two walked out of the Dali Temple, Zhou Shuan calmly said to Chu beside him, "Have you prepared the evidence of Zhu Mao's corruption? Tomorrow, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will personally try it."
"Report to your lord, everything is ready." Chu Yixian has been by Zhou Shu'an's side for a few years, but he rarely sees his lord take the initiative to chat with him. Thinking of the scene just now, he is really curious and said, "My lord has seen Li Shilang before. lady?"
Zhou Shuan nodded solemnly, "I've seen it a few times."
The year he first saw her, he happened to encounter the spread of the plague outside Chang'an City. He went to Beijing to take the exam, and on the way met Shen Qi who entered the city with him.
A carriage with golden silk gauze hanging all around drove past him and stopped slowly. The people inside lifted the curtain and walked down.
"What's going on ahead?" was a very soft voice.
"Girl, the plague has spread to Chang'an, and the city was closed ahead of schedule today. If you want to enter the city, you have to do it tomorrow."
She glanced into the distance, "Then find an inn as soon as possible."
Shen Jiao brought a lot of entourage, and a group of Wuyangyang entered the inn together.
Begging for food abounds outside the city, and wealthy people like Shen's daughter, indeed, attract attention wherever they go.
She brought a lot of entourage, and those rascals didn't dare to come up and grab it, so they encouraged a few poor children with bad legs to go up and ask for money.
"My lord, my lord, I haven't eaten for three days, and I'm almost unable to walk..." The boy's clothes were messy, his face was sunken, and his eyes were as big as copper bells.
"It doesn't matter if I don't eat, I also have a younger sister, she is just three years old, the nobles help."
Seeing this, Qingli immediately took out her purse and waited for Shen Yan to speak.
Unexpectedly, Shen Yan thought she couldn't see it, and walked around.
She was dressed in a goose-yellow begonia patterned skirt, her upper body was a plain white gold-painted top, her head was wearing a gold-encrusted bead-stone emerald hairpin, and a blood jade bracelet was on her delicate wrist, making her skin paler.
There is arrogance and charm flowing between the eyebrows, which is indeed the style of the daughter of the powerful.
Hibiscus noodles, cold hearted,
There was a hint of sarcasm on Zhou Shuan's mouth.
Early the next morning, Shen Yan went downstairs, and she whispered, "Can we enter the city?"
"Okay, the household post was handed in. When the gatekeeper heard that we belonged to the Marquis of Yunyang, he nodded without saying a word."
"Before leaving, take the food and silk cloth left over from the carriage and share it with those children."
Qingli wondered, "Since the girl wants to feed those children, why didn't she give it yesterday?"
"As the saying goes, people don't suffer from widowhood, but they suffer unevenly. If we gave it yesterday, I don't know how many people will come today, and we may not be able to get out of the gate of the inn."
Qingli suddenly realized.
"Okay, let's go quickly." Shen Yan tugged at Qingli's sleeves.
Hearing this, Zhou Shuan in the dark raised the corner of his mouth again, not knowing whether to laugh at her or himself.
But the next time he heard her name, it was from those candidates.
"Hey, did you hear me, the eldest lady of the Marquis of Yunyang, and Li Di, the one who drank with us a while ago, exchanged messages."
At that time, she had become another woman.
