Sheng Shian

Shen Shi saw that the lantern was gone, his eyes were full of light, he laughed at himself: "What Hou Ye said is true, then go back earlier, I prepared a birthday banquet for Hou Ye..."

Liu Changze paused, "Can you leave the mansion?"

Shen Shi raised his eyes, and the dim light shone on his face, looking confused and affectionate, "At this time, does Hou Ye still care about this with me?"

Liu Changze shook his head.

Shen laughed.

……

Liu Changze followed Shen into the house, only to find that the table was dyed with red candles, and there were eight treasures on the table. As soon as Shen entered the door, he took off the red hijab hanging on the door. , Eunuch Lu told me that Lord Hou promised a thousand gold and never broke his promise."

"I'm sorry I didn't take it seriously in the past..." Shen Shi covered his face with the hijab and sat on the side of the bed, "I don't know if Hou Ye remembers that he promised to give everything to compensate me?"

Liu Changze was dumbfounded. He looked at the room full of red candles, at the person in front of him who was desperate for him and buried himself in the dust, "You...why do you..."

Shen sat up straight, "I have nothing else to ask for, just ask Lord Hou to lift the cover for me, just as..."

"Just grant me one wish."

From under the red cover, Shen Shi watched Liu Changze's brocade and silver boots gradually approaching, without any joy. The man finally stopped in front of him, then reached out and rubbed the top of his head, squatted down, and coaxed softly: "Change to another one." , I promise you all."

Finally, Shen Shi couldn't help but leaned on his shoulder and trembled, but he didn't want to cry a little, it was too embarrassing...

Liu Changze stroked his back until he calmed down.

"You don't leave me with a single thought..."

Liu Changze straightened him up, straightened his sleeves, "You are a minister of the Great Qi, and you have made great contributions to saving the country. In the future, you may be crowned king or minister. You will marry a virtuous woman who is knowledgeable, sensible, gentle and loves to laugh. Don't belittle yourself! .”

Shen laughed when he heard it, and then laughed for a long time. If his dignity can be exchanged for him to stay, then it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter...

Shen understood so clearly that it was impossible for him to take the place of that person no matter what.

He lifted his hijab off with one hand, looked at Liu Changze with red eyes and smiled, and said, "I put it down."

With this sound, Liu Changze's heart ached sharply, and there was blood in his throat.

But he just chuckled.

In fact, he seldom smiles, all of which have been used up in the past few days.

Shen Shi stood up and picked up the wine from the banquet, his hair was dazzling red, Shen Shi offered a toast to him, "Thank you, Lord Hou, I hope we can meet sooner in the next life."

Shen smiled and shed tears, raised his head and drank it all.

Liu Changze couldn't refuse. He took the wine and said, "In your next life, don't meet such a thin lover like me again."

Shen Shi covered his face with his hands, and slid down against the edge of the bed. He finally cried out hoarsely.

I let go.

Liu Changze, I let go...

He saw Liu Changze fainted at his feet, with blood overflowing from his mouth...

……

Edict from the Son of Heaven:

Xiaoyao Hou Liu Changze committed suicide in fear of crime, thinking of his meritorious service in calming the chaos, his merits and demerits were equal, and he was buried in Yong'an Mausoleum.

Edict from the Son of Heaven:

Liu's party, in vain of the emperor's kindness, conspired to treason the country, an unforgivable crime, should be implicated in the nine clans, and the whole family would be executed. But thinking of Xiaoyaohou Liu Changze's contribution to saving the country and killing relatives righteously, the family of Xiaoyaohou was pardoned, exiled to Lingnan, and set off today.

Shen Shi pushed open the gate of the Ministry of Justice, and there was a disheveled man inside. Seeing him coming, he smiled sadly, "You won again..."

Shen Shi dismissed the crowd, "The Holy One sent me to see you off."

"Why do you have to be hypocritical, left and right are just one death, death by white silk, death by poisoned wine, death by thousands of cuts, there is a difference."

Shen Shi brushed off the thatch on one side of his bed and sat down, set the table with food and wine, and said slowly; "If there is no difference, why did you deliberately go back to the mansion to worship Ran Niang..."

Wen Tong spat, "You are proud of being able to see through others!"

Then he smiled maniacally again, "So what, the person you tried your best to protect is still dead... This is called the cycle of karma, retribution is not good!"

Shen Shi poured the wine on his face.

"Who are you showing this self-defeating look! Ran Niang is dead, you must let her die without peace!"

Wen Tong suddenly jumped up and grabbed Shen Shi's collar, his eyes were full of desperation.

Shen Shi didn't change his face, and scolded angrily, "You hate yourself for nothing, so you can't see others getting better, are you happy! Is there any point in pushing yourself into a desperate situation and trying to make up for it! You can just hide it from Wen Chazi, You didn't leak the fireworks on purpose, how could he find out!"

"Shut up!" Wen Tong roared.

Shen Shi scolded: "You obviously regret it, why don't you dare to admit it! Don't you dare to face yourself even now?"

Wen Tong's veins throbbed when he heard this, but he never landed that punch.

He let go of Shen Shi, and went to the corner of the wall by himself, thinking foolishly, "I want to know you, I want to live a long life, there are no hills in the mountains, and the rivers are exhausted..."

Seeing his appearance, Shen didn't want to talk anymore. A person who pretends to be asleep will never wake up. He pushed the door and walked out...

But I heard the person behind him say, "Help me take care of Wen Chazi..."

Wen Tong's eyes were blurred and he picked up the wine glass on the table. Without the fireworks tube, how could Wen Chazi have survived...

……

"My lord, if I die that day, will you still remember me?"

"What nonsense, Ran Niang will never grow old in my heart. If she dies, then I will go with her."

"I don't allow it."

"Why are you so savage."

"My lord must promise me that if I go there one day, my lord must go on as usual every day, eat well, and remember to put food on the table when drinking, and it is best to pay it again... One more time, Mei Jiao Niang..."

……

He smiled calmly, "Niang Ran, I listened to you well, I didn't seek death or life, it was just a situation in the temple, which was not satisfactory...

Shen closed his eyes and sighed, but there was still that glib, glib Tanhua Lang in his eyes...

……

Liu Changze slowly opened his eyes, in front of him was a magnified old face.

He looked around and seemed to be in a carriage, "Doctor Kong, what's going on?"

Imperial Physician Kong sighed, "Pay off the debt."

Liu Changze was surprised, "You dare to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor!"

"Who made this old man greedy and owed love to a snow lotus..." Imperial Physician Kong was obviously very annoyed, "I exchanged the Nine Turns Fake Corpse Pill from the pharmacy in Santiao Street by Meng Fu merchant! It's cheap for you boy! "

"You! Do you think saving me will be enough!" Liu Changze said angrily.

Doctor Kong waved his hand, and took out a letter from his sleeve, which read: A word from a gentleman is hard to follow.

"Master Shen said that he wants you to live well."

……

Shen was looking at the carriage that gradually disappeared on the city wall...

The attendant asked, "My lord, do you want to check the whereabouts?"

Shen Shi waved his hands and looked into the distance...

"If mountains and rivers don't meet, they will never see each other again in this life."

Nagasawa, take care.

……

Three years later, on the eve of the imperial examination.

Shen Shi went to Wenfu, and Wenchazi was lighting incense sticks to Wentong and Ran Niang's tablets.

"Master Shen is here."

Shen Shi asked, "Are you still unwilling to remove the tablet?"

Wen Chazi shook his head firmly.

"Tomorrow's imperial examination, if you pass the imperial examination, you will be the focus of attention." Shen Shi said: "You were not implicated by the Wenfu because you killed your relatives because of righteousness. disaster..."

"Wen Chazi, thank you Master Shen for your kindness." Wen Chazi knelt down and bowed, "But Master Wen's kindness to me is like a reborn parent. No matter what he does, he will always be my mentor and my father."

Wen Chazi said seriously, "There is absolutely no reason for a child not to serve his father."

Shen Shi smiled gratifiedly, touched his bun, "You have grown up a lot."

……

Before the imperial examination started the next day, it caused an uproar.

It turned out that Da Qi's famous General Chang Sheng went to the exam with a white body, which attracted everyone's attention and criticism.

Later, there was Shen Xueshi, a powerful official at the center of the dynasty, who shed tears in the hall of the tribute courtyard. He resigned from office and returned to his hometown when he was not able to stand up for a year...

On the day when the list was announced, there were many people in the court.

Fushun and Chang Shangshu went out side by side, and sang on the emperor's list, "In September of the 17th year of Xianhe, we began to promote the extreme kindness: the first class was awarded Jinshi and the second Wenlin Lang, and the second class was awarded the Jinshi and the second Bing Shilang , the third and fourth-ranked Jinshi were born, and the fifth-ranked was born with the same Jinshi, so I hereby declare that the list will be released!"

At this time, there was a vision of the rosy light in the sky, and the sudden change of color caused a lot of noise and scrambling for word of mouth.Everyone looked at it, only heard the sound of the roll call, and saw that the candles in the hall were easy to change, like a boiling pot, like a fire alarm, like rebellious soldiers entering the city, like crows returning to the forest...

In the end, the three tripods are sung, and the white horse neighs with thirty bridles, which is a scene of prosperity.

……

"Shen Qing, if you leave too, I will be really alone..."

Shen Shi kowtowed outside the gate of Shenshen Palace, "I owe you the grace of God."

"What else do you wish for?"

Shen smiled slightly, "I left in a hurry, and I haven't heard the biography yet, so I don't know who will win this department?"

"No. [-] scholar, Song Linwen. Second place, Wen Chazi. Tanhua, Xiao Jibei."

Shen was startled, "Linwen is still young..."

"I can't lose two champions..." Emperor Chengming said: "Shen Qing, you saw Lin Wenlei pouring out the tribute to the court, and you recommended Xiao Jibei and Wen Chazi to be admitted, and you didn't hesitate to resign to force me. Now you have regrets." ?”

"Song Ge is regretful all his life. He never snatched a champion hairpin. When he was young and vigorous, he tried to retake the exam many times. Now his grandson has won the prize. It is really gratifying. Why do you regret it?"

Emperor Chengming looked at him with a complicated expression, and then sighed, "I always feel that I have known you for many years..."

"Almost five years." Shen saluted.

Emperor Chengming lowered his eyes and said, "Xiao sent the number one scholar in North Africa, if you are willing, I will allow you to stay in Beijing..."

"My lord, in the past three years, the remaining scourges of the Fuliu family have been eliminated, and everything in the court has returned to the right track. Now the world is safe and peaceful, with talents emerging in large numbers, and ministers are useless..." Shen whispered, "Kuang Xiao sent Bei Juelu Although he was still alive, he went to the entrance examination, causing the official position to be vacant, and Qiu Wei was regarded as a child’s play; Wencha’s father’s crimes were serious, and thousands of people criticized him, and he was on the top of the three tripods.

"The minister is the chief examiner, so he will do his part."

"...Why does Shen Qing have to be so grand..." Emperor Chengming straightened the scarf for him, looking at his upright figure like rime, and his scholarly eyebrows and eyes like splashed ink, he felt a dull pain in his heart, "Three years ago, you treated me Disappointed..."

Shen Shi took two steps back, lifted his robe and knelt down, kowtowed heavily to Emperor Chengming, and to the Zichen Palace, saying: "I wish the heaven and earth are clear, and the sea and rivers are clear; I wish the king live forever, and the prosperous world will be safe!"

Emperor Chengming closed his eyes and walked towards the palace, halfway, but for some reason, he suddenly called out, "Eunuch Lu, it's autumn..."

I saw Fushun put on a white fox cloak for him.

Emperor Chengming looked at him for a while, then sighed, "Elder-in-law taught you very well."

Fushun bowed his head and said nonuo: "My father-in-law said that this is the cloak that the Holy Majesty likes the most..."

Emperor Chengming's vision was dim and long, reminding him of his childhood.

"Eunuch Lu, do you think Taifu will like it if I beat this white fox?"

"This is the first time the Holy Majesty has ejaculated, the Taifu will definitely be happy."

He happily embraced a ring of white fox fur that was taller than him, and ran to the small tent in the Mulan paddock. When he reached the tent door, he saw the young master sleeping on the Taifu's lap...

Fushun asked again: "Didn't the Holy Majesty say that Lu Yuan Tianhan should be given to Mr. Shen? Why..."

Emperor Chengming hugged him tightly, and said flatly: "I can't bear it."

Fushun didn't dare to say anything.
