Zhong Wan was wearing Yu She's robe loosely, sitting up with difficulty, leaning on the head of the bed with half of his chest open.
Zhong Wan's lips were a bit unnaturally red, he licked his lips, closed his eyes and wanted to rest for a while, Yu She leaned on top of him again.
Zhong Wan has been cleaned up by Yu She to be honest. He just said all the things that he can say and can't say. He has said all the good things softly, and now he can only beg for mercy, "Yu, Yu Xiaowang, I'm really loud. It hurts, I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it…”
Even on the bed, Yu She didn't show any superfluous expressions. He was still as cold and cold as he used to be. He asked in a deep voice, "Why don't you believe me?"
Zhong Wan was really frightened by Yu She's tossing, and whispered, "I opened my mouth, you can see for yourself."
Yu She's throat tightened upon hearing that.
Zhong Wan instantly realized that he had said the wrong thing again, and said pitifully, "What the hell are you doing..."
Yu She said in a deep voice, "Didn't you say you want to open your mouth for me to check? Open your mouth."
Zhong Wan's face instantly turned red again, "Don't... don't make trouble."
Yu She's expression was serious, she squeezed Zhong Wan's chin, and she took it seriously.
Zhong Wan was very embarrassed, but Yu She didn't stop and said lightly, "Open up, let me see... Have you eaten clean?"
Zhong Wan's face was about to catch fire. He originally thought that it was shameful enough to be forced to say that he really liked being blocked by Yu She just now. drive people to death.
Zhong Wan just wanted to find a hole to crawl in. He broke away from Yu She, put his head on Yu She's chest, and said in a muffled voice, "I've eaten clean, I've already... swallowed it in my stomach."
Yu She slid his hand down, pressed it on Zhong Wan's stomach, and rubbed it meaningfully.
Zhong Wan curled up impatiently, "Yu Xiaowang, okay, even if I bought it with your money, you have to let me rest for a while, right?"
Yu She heard the words and smiled, "Didn't you buy it from me?"
Yu She lowered her head to kiss Zhong Wan, and a palace servant came in. Yu She picked up the quilt beside him and covered Zhong Wan, took the robe and put it on himself, "What's the matter?"
The palace servant lowered his head and said, "Back to the little prince, news just came from the capital, saying that the assassination has been raised, and it was indeed what Prince Yu did. Now that there are witnesses and physical evidence, the sage said that he will return to Beijing tomorrow."
Yu She looked back at Zhong Wan and finally came.
Emperor Chong'an may have wanted to wait for news in the palace, but the twelve extra assassins were always in his heart, making him restless. Now that the crime of King Yu's assassination has been settled, he doesn't want to be in this unsafe place anymore. delayed.
The next day, everyone returned to Beijing.
When leaving the palace, Yu She failed to accompany Zhong Wan on the carriage. According to the arrangement of the Ministry of Rites, he had to ride a horse and be led in front of Emperor Chong'an's luan, pretending to be a dutiful son for others to see. Zhong Wan himself sat on the carriage and dozed off. .
After walking for an hour after leaving the palace, a servant who was following outside the carriage gently patted the window and asked, "Master Zhong, do you want tea?"
Zhong Wan was just a little thirsty, he opened his eyes and beat his neck, facing the curtain of the car, "Okay."
The carriage stopped, and a little eunuch climbed into the carriage holding a food box, knelt down and poured tea for Zhong Wan.
The Luan driver in front didn't stop, Zhong Wan's car could not stop for too long, the carriage slowly followed, Zhong Wan squinted at the little eunuch, sat up straight and smiled, "I'm sorry, I didn't know who my father-in-law was. The person in front of the imperial family, father-in-law doesn't have to take care of me, I'll just do it myself."
That day, when Emperor Chong'an called him to play chess, Clock Wan had seen this little eunuch once. He had a good memory and could recognize it.
The little eunuch smiled, "Master Zhong still remembers the servant?"
The little eunuch wisely poured out the tea, took out two trays of delicate snacks from the food box, and said with a smile, "Master Zhong, please use it."
Zhong Wan leaned against the car window and said gently, "I'm bothering father-in-law, but I'm not thirsty yet, so let's leave it for now."
The little eunuch tacitly smiled at Zhong Wan, and said softly, "Could it be that Young Master Zhong is afraid that the servant will be poisoned?"
Zhong Wan became more polite, "Father-in-law is joking."
But just don't touch it.
The little eunuch said helplessly, "Master Zhong is too careful. How could the emperor be willing to let you have something wrong? After punishing the young master yesterday, didn't the little prince let you go as soon as he went to intercede? The saint really values you."
Zhong Wan lowered his head and smiled, and he knew that Emperor Chong'an would be fooled by himself once, but not a second time. This time, he simply skipped the interview and sent an eunuch directly to pass the message.
"Look, Master, what is this?"
The little eunuch took out a bookfold from his arms and placed it in Zhong Wan with both hands.
Zhong Wan didn't take it, and asked, "What is this? Is it an imperial edict for the little prince to marry?"
The little eunuch smiled and motioned to Zhong Wan to look at it for himself. Zhong Wan picked it up, opened it, and the smile on his face gradually faded.
"Young master is still a slave now, and this matter has always been a problem with the sage. As early as when you first entered the capital, Master Zhong, the sage had instructed Mr. Yu to take your deed of betrayal and take you there. The yamen will go through the motions and restore your identity, but unfortunately the little prince is not happy, so it was delayed."
"Later, the sage thought about it again, and felt that it was not enough to just go to slavery. Who are you? Isn't it a pity that you have lived your life like this?"
Zhong Wan seriously looked at the imperial pen on the booklet, word by word, and was dazed.
"Speaking of this, there is an old story that Master Zhong may not even know about himself. The servants also listened to the elders who served the sage by chance." The little eunuch smiled, "The servants will teach you a lesson?"
Zhong Wan knew that this was a trap, but he still nodded reluctantly because of the past.
"It's too early to say that, seven... Oh no, eight years ago, when Prince Ning had an accident." The little eunuch said, "Young master, you haven't been imprisoned yet, you should be protecting the little masters of Prince Ning. I'm anxiously waiting for news at Ning Wangfu, so you don't know."
"You don't know, the old lady Shi Jinshi once knelt for seven hours outside the hall of the Holy Emperor!"
There was a rust smell in Zhong Wan's mouth, and he didn't want to hear it anymore.
But the little eunuch was still talking.
"The old lady, the two emperors of the two dynasties, what an arrogant person. Our Holy Master also paid him the apprenticeship ceremony. The emperor respected the teacher. , but that day, the old lady Fu Jiu knelt outside the hall and kept kowtow."
"Mr. Shi said that Gui Yuan was still a half-year-old boy. No matter what King Ning did, Gui Yuan must not know about it. Mrs. Shi begged the Holy One, don't let this case involve you, it will be a palace exam soon. Now, you have been studying hard for many years, and if you get out of prison, your life will be over."
"You had just passed your sixteenth birthday at the time."
"Mr. Shi rarely praises you on weekdays, right? But that day, Mrs. Shi told the emperor that Zhong Guiyuan was a star of Wenqu, and he couldn't let it go."
"The emperor is also embarrassed. There is no way. Let the old lady go back to the mansion first. If the old lady doesn't listen, she will kneel there. Think about it, the people who come in and go out... oops."
Zhong Wan's lips trembled slightly, "You..." Zhong Wan's voice was hoarse, he pursed his lips into a line and refused to speak any more.
Zhong Wan wanted to say, that is the emperor of the two dynasties, the head of the Hanlin, no one will help him
The little eunuch sighed, "In the end, the emperor reluctantly approved the document for arresting you. After the document was passed on, Mrs. Shi fainted, and the father-in-law dared to send people out of the palace, alas..."
The little eunuch looked at Zhong Wan, where Zhong Wan hurt him and stepped on it, "Master Zhong, Mrs. Shi sees it most clearly, he will not let you go to prison even if he dies, just because he is afraid that you will be like today, living your life and doing nothing. You are wasting yourself in vain."
"Even if Prince Yu came to spend money to redeem you, even if you go to slavery in the future... it's too late." The little eunuch said regretfully, "You understand the reasoning, don't you?"
Zhong Wan's Adam's apple moved slightly, and said in a low voice, "Understood... In this dynasty's law, those who violate the criminal law will not be allowed to participate in the imperial examination for life."
"Now this opportunity has come!" The little eunuch smiled happily, "Look carefully at this book, the emperor has already said it clearly, our emperor is willing to break the law set by the ancestors for you, and fulfill the wish of the old lady. , I will give you a decree so that you can take the imperial examination again. Master Zhong is just twenty-five this year, and he is still very young. Even if it takes a few years in the middle, the servant thinks... You can still win, isn't it?"
"In?" Zhong Wan sneered and put the imperial edict on the table, "As long as I go, the champion is still mine."
The little eunuch was stunned for a moment. He was not very old, and he heard everything from others. In his heart, he was a little disdainful of this notorious male concubine that Yu She kept in his room, but he was just a dead man.
But at this moment, from the corners of his brows with broken sleeves, he actually showed a bit of scholarly frivolity.
Vaguely, he really believed it a little bit. If this broken sleeve were to enter the imperial examination again, he might really be able to make a name for himself.
The little eunuch didn't dare to think any more, and smiled diligently, "That's what it is."
"Young Master Zhong, look." The little eunuch opened the bookfold and said softly, "This is the royal pen of the saint, and it is only a seal. As long as the young master can convince the little prince to get married smoothly, this seal can be affixed. !"
The little eunuch didn't believe that Zhong Wan could stand this kind of temptation. He smiled and said, "You are not only worthy of the old lady's friendship, but also comfort your relatives underground souls. What a good thing."
Zhong Wan stared at Shuzhe, his eyes trembled slightly, before he could speak, the little eunuch said softly, "Of course, the young master may think that in the future when the young prince succeeds the throne, he can also give you the same edict, but… "
The little eunuch said in a low voice, "The sage said that the prince is young, and I'm afraid that he will be confused, so there will be a day in the future when an edict will be issued to order loyal ministers and clan relatives to testify, ordering the prince to declare to the world when he sacrifices to heaven, and within 30 years, he will not violate the law. The emperor's order."
Zhong Wan clenched his fingers.
The little eunuch said softly, "Therefore, only the Sage can do it for you to change the law, Young Master Zhong, it's not a big deal, you only need to persuade the prince a few words. Are you really not interested?"
Zhong Wan stared at the imperial decree, the little eunuch saw the hesitation in Zhong Wan's eyes, and bowed his head in satisfaction, "The servant will leave first, young master think about it carefully, Mrs. Shi can watch you from the sky."
The little eunuch slipped out of the car, Zhong Wan looked at the memorial on the small table and was fascinated for a long time.
It would be a lie to say that you don't mind.
At that time, he also wanted to be angry and look at all the Chang'an flowers in one day.
An hour later, Xuan Jing came down in place of Yu She, Yu She had long been impatient, he rode his horse to the front of Zhong Wan's car, dismounted and got into the car, he was choked as soon as he entered the carriage, "What are you doing? of!"
"It's okay, I accidentally burned something." Zhong Wan didn't wait for Yu She to ask again, he hugged Yu She and buried his head in his neck. Yu She was stunned by this hug. , Zhong Wan sighed for a long time, "Ziyou... I really like you so much."
