Yunqi Jiangxin

Lying in the inn for two days, Rong Xun listened to the news that You Fu was quietly taken away and the prefect Cao was secretly imprisoned, while watching Wang Nuo's various acts of harassment to Miss Tu Wan in the past two days. , a big headache.

"I said you, what is your name Tu Wan, change your name to Tu La!"

The door was opened, and Tu Wan walked in with an angry face. Wang Nuo followed behind and muttered in dissatisfaction. Tu Wan shot him in the eye. Man, how can your husband bear it?"

"I want you to take care of it!"

Tu Wan couldn't take it anymore, she slammed the door shut with her hands, added the bolt, and directly planned to see nothing.Then he turned around, smiled at Rong Xun embarrassedly, and Rong Xun also smiled and motioned her to sit down.Tu Wan sat down and asked straight to the point: "I heard that you have captured Na Youfu, I want to know who will interrogate him and when will he be killed?"

Rong Xun smiled and comforted her and said, "Don't worry, the private use of official organs, torture and kidnapping, and private mining are enough for him to bear. In addition to the things behind the prefect Cao, I think it should be They will be escorted to Beijing and will be interrogated by Dali Temple." Seeing the anger in Tu Wan's eyes, he said, "You mentioned You Fu's evil deeds in Liang County, as well as your father's and sister's affairs. If you have evidence, you can also give it to me. , I'll see if I can pass it on for you."

Tears flashed across Tu Wan, she handed over a stack of letter papers, she got up and wanted to kneel and thank, Rong Xun kept supporting her, it took her a long time to calm down, and asked: "Wang Nuo said, you knew that Governor Cao was not a good person early on? "

Rong Xun heard the man in black talk about the prefect of Cao, and learned that he was a tyrant in Longzhou in his early years. His ancestors were officials in Longzhou for generations, and he did many evil deeds. Niang, after the founding of Huangyu, there were too many gaps in the states, so he suddenly became the magistrate, and You Fu's private jade mine mining was also instructed by him.He shook his head and said: "When I came out of Longzhou, I saw that the elderly people in the local area were afraid of him, and I heard about his family's evil deeds, so I guessed that such a person might not be what he behaved. "

After hearing this, Tu Wan understood. Seeing that she was injured, and there was another guard standing beside her with an expressionless face, she didn't dare to stay longer, and went out after thanking her.

Not long after, Wang Nuo's unrelenting teasing and Tu Wan's shameful scolding came from outside the door again. Rong Xun couldn't help smiling. I'm afraid that in a short while, another pair of happy friends will be born.

Happy to be happy, but Rong Xun's happiness didn't last long. On the third night, when he was about to fall asleep, a black shadow touched the bed majestically.Before Rong Xun had time to struggle, he was severely suppressed and kissed until he was almost suffocated. When he smelled the familiar smell from that person, Rong Xun sighed in his heart, but he really couldn't hide.

The person who came was Long Xiu. After finishing his mouth, he began to tear Rong Xun's clothes without saying a word, and asked angrily while tearing: "I heard that you were captured on purpose to save people? And you are helping others to block knives?" How courageous! Are my words falling on deaf ears, right?"

Seeing that he was very angry, Rong Xun didn't dare to speak back, and let him tear. Soon, several whip wounds on his body and a knife wound on his right shoulder were exposed.Long Xiu took the candle and looked at it carefully, layers of black mist appeared on his face.

"...It just looks serious." Rong Xun hurriedly said, "This time it was really an accident, I knew it well..." Long Xiu became even more angry before he finished speaking, and quickly changed his words: "Why are you here?"

Long Xiu stared at him for a while before saying: "The construction of embankments at the estuary of the whole prefecture, and the construction of canals and defense projects all the way south along the river, are related to the century-old plan of several prefectures. I must personally preside over the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven." With a snort, he grabbed the phoenix ring on his chest: "In the end, I heard that your life was in danger, and even the ring was given to someone else."

Rong Xun felt wronged, so he could only say weakly: "Everything is fine..."

"Go back to me obediently tomorrow." Long Xiu said, blew out the candle, hugged him and fell asleep.Knowing that he had made up his mind, Rong Xun thought he was going back to celebrate Qing Tian's birthday, so he didn't say anything.

The next day, Wang Nuo looked at the strange man who came out of the room calmly and calmly early in the morning. Seeing that he was tall, with exquisite facial features but not angry and powerful, he didn't dare to look at him blatantly. After a few sneaky glances, he still looked To the gentle Rong Xun, he confirmed again and again: "Are you going back to the capital? Brother Niu Zi said he wanted to invite you to attend the ceremony. If it wasn't for you this time, Mrs. Niu wouldn't know what would have happened? And Tu Wan..."

Tu Wan threw it over with a sharp eye: "Who wants you to care?"

Rong Xun smiled and saw Miss Tu blushing slightly, and said, "I've been away from Beijing for a long time, and my niece's birthday is coming soon..."

"That's it! Let me follow the gift." Wang Nuo said, reaching out to grab Rong Xun's wrist habitually, but suddenly felt Long Xiu's gaze over there, and for some reason withdrew his hand abruptly, and asked a little aggrieved Said: "If I go to Kyoto to open a branch in the future, can I ask you out for a drink?"

When Rong Xun saw that he was different from his usual fearless appearance, he was suddenly a little happy. At this moment, he looked at Tu Wan and said, "Ms. Tu, will you go home next time? Youfu's case is over and I want How to tell you?"

Tu Wan was stunned, a little dazed, Wang Nuo over there had already replied first: "Just write to me and tell me, I'm about to take her home to recover from her injuries!"

Tu Wan became angry, and scolded: "Who wants to go with you?" Wang Nuo was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "You promised yesterday, but you still want to go back on your word? You have no fixed place and bad temper, why don't I look at you?" OK?"

"Who has a bad temper?" Tu Wan raised her eyebrows, her eyes were almost on fire.

Seeing that the two of them started their daily routine of alternative communication, Rong Xun smiled and waited for them to finish their quarrel, but his hand was suddenly grabbed and Long Xiu had already dragged him outside, "Wait a minute!" He said hurriedly, "I'm not yet know how to notify them."

Long Xiu wanted to say that someone would take care of these things, but he also thought that Rong Xun would definitely not follow him, and wanted to ask how long it took you to be so close to others, several thoughts popped up at the same time, he stopped for a while, just stood where he was, Rong Xiu Xun then sighed and said, "Wait a little longer..."

Long Xiu clasped his hands, moved closer, and asked, "How long will you wait?" Rong Xun was about to speak, but felt a burst of silence. When he turned his head, he saw that Wang Nuo and Tu Wan had stopped arguing. Staring at him curiously, especially his hand held by Long Xiu, Wang Nuo turned his head sideways, Tu Wan's cheeks were flushed, and he didn't know if it was a quarrel or something else, Rong Xun hurriedly pulled back as if nothing had happened. Hand, said to Wang Nuo: "Give me your address."

"Oh...oh!" Wang Nuo came back to his senses, hurried to the counter, borrowed the shopkeeper's pen and paper to write a note and handed it over.

Rong Xun took it over, looked at it, nodded at him, and walked out first. Wang Nuo and his wife saw them get into the carriage. Only then did they feel that Rong Xun's "going home" was true. waved goodbye.

The wound on Rong Xun's shoulder was so deep that the bone was visible, it was not an "accident" that could be prevaricated. He knew that it was luck that he was able to get out of the body this time, and the two of them hadn't seen each other for almost half a year. And something else happened.The two of them were silent for a while, but luckily Long Xiu left when he arrived in Quanzhou, leaving behind two secret guards and a doctor with a bad face, Rong Xun heaved a sigh of relief when he saw him leave.

It turned out that half a year had passed in a blink of an eye, Rong Xun thought a little dazedly, the carriage kept heading north, which happened to be the opposite direction of his past six months, and what he saw and knew all the way south was replayed in his mind.

More than half a month later, the carriage drove into the gate of Kyoto, and the late autumn wind had already arrived here before him.

The winter of the previous year, Rong Xun had waited for two years and finally came. He proposed to go out for a few days. At that time, Long Xiu was silent for a moment, his face darkened, and Mr. An hurriedly said: "The sky is getting bigger and bigger. It's cold, His Highness hasn't fully recovered yet..."

After hearing this, Long Xiu said, "That's right, you can leave the palace freely, but you have to come back every day. You can go anywhere you want by Lixia, but you have to come back before Lidong." After hearing this, Rong Xun knew that this was a conclusion, Still struggling and said: "This is different from what you promised."

Long Xiu grabbed Rong Xun's wrist, with a dangerous look in his eyes, he said in a low voice, "Even if you want to be a kite, the end of the thread must be in my hands." After finishing speaking, he flicked his sleeves and went out .

On the same day, Eunuch An came over with a jade pendant, but Rong Xun had no choice but to take it. He comforted himself that at least he could go to see Changle and Qingtian anytime.

That winter, every time I went out of the palace, there was really nowhere to go except Changle and Qingtian.Before he was nine years old, he lived in the palace, and after he was nine years old, he lived outside the customs. Whether it was Dasheng's Jingdu or Huangyu's Kyoto, they were all strange places to him. Changle or Longxiu dragged themselves there.

To Kyoto, he was just a stranger, with neither a favorite place nor a well-known corner. He still remembered many times when he stood on the street, at the gate of the city, or somewhere on the outskirts of the city, looking at the passing crowd and their surroundings. The smiling face, the heart is empty.

After entering the palace, Eunuch An was already waiting there. Not long after Long Xiu came back, a lot of things were bothering him. Feng Ziyou went on a medical trip two months ago, and Liao Jiang was waiting there to help him check the wound. In fact, the wound was about to heal. Scab, it was Eunuch An who was considerate and asked Liao Jiang to report on the situation of Changle and Qingtian.

Sure enough, everything was fine in Changle, and I didn't worry too much when I received his letters on time, but I started to catch a cold just after the autumn, and it didn't feel good again and again, so Rong Xun thought about going to see it quickly, and Mrs. He held it down, saying that it would not be too late to go after the wound was out of the way, and then moved out of Longxiu, Rong Xun had no choice but to give up.

After several days of patience, Eunuch An came to deliver the afternoon soup as a routine, and said cautiously: "Your Highness, Your Majesty asked you to meet him in the Imperial Study Room later."

Specially calling him, presumably the case between Zhifu Cao and You Fu has come to a conclusion, so Rong Xun nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go there before dinner."

"Yes..." Eunuch An agreed, seemingly hesitant, Rong Xun looked at him, and asked, "Eunuch An, do you have anything to say?"

Eunuch An was a little hesitant, and slowly opened his mouth: "Your Majesty has been angry in court several times recently, and he also looks a little unhappy in private. The old slave is thinking about it, and I'm afraid it has something to do with the case His Highness is involved in." See Rong Xun nodded, and then said in a low voice: "You also know that His Majesty has always been very diligent. Recently, he often worked on paperwork until midnight. This old slave is really worried that this will damage His Majesty's health."

"Eunuch An can persuade him more."

Eunuch An shook his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, forgive me, this old slave is so bold, please don't tell Your Majesty."

Eunuch An served Long Xiu's grandfather all his life, and grew up with Long Xiu. His feelings for Long Xiu are not ordinary servants.Rong Xun looked at him and said softly, "Don't worry, Eunuch An."

"It's only been four years since the founding of the country, so how can we take care of everything? Your majesty's political achievements can bear the word of diligence. In fact, your majesty has heard about the Longzhou matter, but before you can do it, your majesty has hit you right." Now, Your Majesty... I'm afraid I'm blaming myself, and I feel... a bit ashamed..."

After Rong Xun heard this, he didn't know how to answer the conversation for a while. It is true that Long Xiu often came back late at night recently. Rong Xun only thought that he had a lot of things to do every day, but he didn't expect to have such thoughts.

Speaking of which, this person is three years younger than himself.

He was silent for a while, then said, "I know..."

Eunuch an saluted and went out.Rong Xun looked at the soup on the table. Ever since he got better, he could say that he could rely on the medicinal diet. After Long Xiu knew about it, he ordered Mr. An to deliver the soup in person every afternoon, and watched him drink it before leaving. I left for half a year, and after I came back, all kinds of nourishing soups became twice a day, and I couldn't avoid it.

He sighed, waited for a while and went to the imperial study.

Long Xiu didn't say much, just handed him a case file for him to read.Starting from You Fu's private opening of the jade mine, all the way to trace the life of the prefect Cao, Rong Xun found out that You Fu was a counselor under the prefect Cao in his early years. Because of his decisive and ruthless work, he was single-handedly recommended by the prefect Cao after the founding of the country I went to Bingzhou to be the county magistrate. After the magistrate Cao found a jade mine in Long'an County a year ago, he took advantage of You Fu's full term and took him back to his own site to preside over the excavation. Who would have thought that Tu Wan accidentally discovered it. The witnesses and material evidences are conclusive, and now the two have been sentenced to death, and were beheaded two days ago.

After Rong Xun finished reading, he wrote the letter to Wang Nuo at the side, looked up, Long Xiuhao walked over and took the case file back.

When Rong Xun wrote the letter just now, Niu Zi and those lame people kept appearing in his mind, and his heart was full. Now when he saw Long Xiu, he didn't know what to say. Seeing that he was about to leave, he hurriedly Said: "...Thank you."

Long Xiu paused, turned around and looked at him, Rong Xun's face was a little hot, and he simply said: "It's not this case, you... didn't kill those prisoners..."

Long Xiu nodded and didn't say anything. Seeing that the corners of his eyes were dim, Rong Xun took a breath and said after thinking of Mr. An's words, "As for this case, don't worry about it. I... I’ve read a lot, and you’ve already done a good job... After all, it’s only been a few years, so you can’t do everything well..."

Rong Xun finished speaking in a bit of embarrassment, without looking at the other party. He didn't hear a reply after a long time. Just as he felt strange, Long Xiu had already walked up to him and asked, "Is the wound healed?"

Unexpectedly, the other party would ask this, Rong Xun blurted out and replied, "It's almost done..." Before he finished speaking, he was already hugged, and then the imperial study room passed by quickly, and in a blink of an eye, he had already arrived at the back of the study room for Long Xiu's small bedroom Resting room.

When his back touched the couch, his clothes had already been stripped away. Rong Xun didn't expect that he would attract such a reaction from the other party when he said something serious. He was a little annoyed, but Long Xiu was absolutely strong between the beds, and it was useless to resist. , Rong Xun hurriedly said: "The wound will burst open..."

"Oh?" Long Xiu touched the newly grown tender red part after the scab fell off, squinted his eyes and said, "You dare to block others' knives, why don't I ask you to apply the medicine for two more days?"

The old account was turned up, Rong Xun was speechless for a while, since the young emperor who has been going out early and returning late since his return, no matter in body or in mind, I am afraid that he has endured it for a long time.He looked at Rong Xun who was trembling again and again, and snorted softly.

"Half a year, hmph" Long Xiu interrogated in a low voice, hearing the other party's weeping gradually out of control, his hoarse voice was deeper than his movements: "Do you still dare to walk for so long? Huh?" Rong Xun was forced by him to be immobile, with no way to retreat, nowhere to go, so he shook his head and begged for mercy but couldn't speak, the sapphire on his wrist trembled slightly, Long Xiu looked at the lustrous jade color in the dark room Against Rong Xun's arm, his heart was beating like a drum, he didn't care about anything else, and indulged wantonly.

For a while, the imperial study room was boundless, and outside, the rain that foretells winter suddenly began to fall.
