Be an official

The autumn night is hot and dull, and the summer heat seems to have not completely dissipated.

The unbearable body made a slight sound on the bed, and the room was filled with the smell of sweat and musk.

Shao Yan suddenly turned over and sat up, panting heavily, the white obscene clothes on his body were wide open, revealing his wheat-colored chest, and the clothes on his back were completely soaked.

His body was in pain, he raised his head and stared at the gauze curtain in the night, and let out a wry smile. Whether it was before his rebirth or now, he was in his prime. Although he didn't think about it now, he still couldn't hold back his body. deep longing.

The upside-down glory in the dream is extremely tender, the cold eyes of the man under him are dyed with sparkling colors, the snow-white arms, the flexible waist, and the untouchable that is close in front of you, all turned into a dream in the dream. Deeply depressing thoughts.

Shao Yan just opened his eyes wide, staring at the dark gauze curtain, thinking of his Luo Er lying in his arms, the soft and protruding abdomen touched by his hands.

In an instant, the pain overflowed from the chest, and the body also cooled down—Huan Luo.

Today is Xiumu, there is no need to go to the morning court, Shao Yan got up lazily, and walked slowly to the front hall to eat.

The diners were still Jiang Xing Jiangyue, the housekeeper, and Chen Huanluo who was dressed in blue silk.

Shao Yan walked up to him, picked up chopsticks and a piece of steamed bun, and picked up vegetables while eating.

Chen Huanluo looked up at him, hesitated, "What's wrong with you today?"

The other party still lowered his head, hesitantly said, "No."

Chen Huanluo pursed his lips secretly, put down the bowl and chopsticks and left, until after he left, Shao Yan didn't take the initiative to say a word.

When the butler ordered the dishes to be cleaned up, Shao Yan still held the chopsticks and bowed his head in a daze.

"What are you going to do today, sir?"

Shao Yan threw down the bowls and chopsticks, sat on the back of the chair, lazily and a little bored, and yelled at Jiang Xing, "My lord will take you to the song and dance building, Jiang Xing, will you go or not?"

"What do you need to go to the song and dance building?" The butler frowned, watching Jiang Xing carefully pick up vegetables for Jiang Yue.

Shao Yan spread his hands, "It's okay, it's a good time to have fun."

"It's not right." The old housekeeper said, he thought for a while, and seeing Shao Yan's expression, he understood, and said in a low voice, "My lord, the golden wind and the jade dew will meet once again."

Shao Yan coughed twice in fright, and the housekeeper said with a smile, "If Mr. Chen knows where your lord is going, he will definitely be unhappy."

"Why?" Chen Huanluo never cared about his whereabouts, let alone being unhappy, maybe it was because of this matter that Shao Yan was depressed.

"Adults think for themselves"

Chen Xiuqi closed the revised memorial and made people serve tea.

He carefully looked up and down Rong Lingjun, "Is your body better?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. There is no serious problem."

Chen Xiuqi asked Mu Qing to pass a memorial to Rong Lingjun for review. After half a cup of tea, Rong Lingjun thought about it and said, "Your Majesty, I don't remember that there is such a person."

The memorial was played by the Ministry of Punishment, and the content in it is probably that the person who poisoned it was taken from a man in the government office. He served as a servant in the government office, and he made Rong Lingjun drink the poisonous tea. Before confessing, he hit the wall in prison and committed suicide. The government found drugs and hundreds of silver taels in his residence, but there was nothing else.

"I just can't think of anyone who wants to poison me. I don't have a big official position in the government office, and I don't have any grudges with others. I don't doubt the investigation of the Ministry of Punishment, it's just a little—"

Chen Xiuqi waved his hand, "I know what you mean, but you must be on guard against others. This time, Shao Qing saved you. The capital city is dangerous, and Ling Jun must take care of his body, otherwise I will not be able to explain to you, old Houye ah."

Rong Lingjun nodded, and after exchanging greetings with the emperor, he took his leave.

Chen Xiuqi opened today's memorial, his eyes were deep, there was another case on it, it was written that a woman sued the Prime Minister Shao Yan for wrongly arresting her husband, but she has not been interrogated or released yet.

And the name written on the memorial happened to be the same name and surname as the person who committed suicide in fear of crime in the previous book.

Two days later, on an auspicious day, the emperor canonized more than ten concubines. They had fun with the people and were welcomed by all officials.

In the imperial study room, Shao Yan could hear the sound of playfulness coming from the far flower gallery from outside the window.

"The palace is much more lively," he said.

Chen Xiuqi snorted, "Aren't you in a hurry to sue the officials?"

"The Ministry of Punishment will make the decision for me, and I will wait for the reply from the Ministry of Punishment." Shao Yan smiled unscrupulously, "Your Majesty, although I have not issued an order to prohibit rumors of what happened in the city, it still needs to be verified by someone with a heart. It was only then that Yuchen was found to be related, and no matter how wronged she is, no matter how wronged she is, it is impossible for her to identify the minister as the mastermind on her own."

The dim sum in the palace was delicious, so Shao Yan took the opportunity to eat two more yuan.

Chen Xiuqi shook his head, "Who in the court doesn't have eyes and ears?"

If you can't finish eating, take it away.

Shao Yan carried the oil bag in his pocket, wanting his family to taste it too.

There is another autumn scene in the palace, and there are more court ladies, and the pink shirts and dresses are full of noises.

Shao Yan raised his steps and planned to walk towards a place where there were few people, but a person fell from the flowers, and he helped him up, only to feel the fragrance hit his face.

The warbler whispers in my ear.

The body supported by his hands was unbelievably soft, as if it had no bones, Shao Yan shook his head inwardly.

"My lord—" whispered softly, and then a group of maidservants followed behind.

It is a common practice in the palace, but you have to choose the right person.

"It's okay, your mother should be more careful, don't hurt yourself when you play." Shao Yan took a step back, saluted, and said goodbye.

Shao Yan didn't know, until after he left, the woman who fell in his arms was still looking forward to her, but it had nothing to do with him.

Today's city is also very lively, and the families who have concubine concubines are all happy to give porridge to worship their ancestors, for fear that others will not know.

Watching the people coming and going on the side of the road bored.

Bai Zhaoyu came from behind the shop, glanced at the untouched tea and snacks on the table, "You want to go back so eagerly?"

Chen Huanluo frowned, "What else?"

Bai Zhaoyu stepped over, "Mister asked you to approach Rong Lingjun, why haven't you moved yet?"

"I won't..." He looked cold and tightened his hands in his sleeves.

The expected reaction, "Today you will stay and go to the same place with me", he smiled and approached Chen Huanluo, "There are some things that you don't know, but you can learn."

When Chen Huanluo refuted, Bai Zhaoyu immediately returned to normal, chatting normally, "Have you heard the recent rumors in the world?"

"what?"

"Ant king grass."

Chen Huanluo looked up at him, picked up the tea and drank it with his head down, thinking, "I've never seen it before. Besides, there are exaggerated claims."

There are rumors in the rivers and lakes that taking Ant King Grass can greatly increase the power in a short period of time, and it can also cure all kinds of poisons and prolong life.

It is impossible for anything to violate the existence of nature.

"It doesn't matter if it's true or not, but it's true that many people from the rivers and lakes have come to the capital in the name of the martial arts test." Bai Zhaoyu fiddled with his sleeves, "It's a coincidence, isn't it. There just happened to be a martial arts test. It's not surprising that Jianghu people."

"You have the idea of ​​having a winter test!" Chen Huanluo was cautious.

"Chen Huanluo, correct your words, it's not me, it's us. Besides, we have only one purpose for doing this."

Shao Yan hasn't left the palace yet.

To be precise, he stopped by to visit his acquaintances in the palace again.

Qi Wei watched Shao Yan drink three cups of tea in a row, and inexplicably felt his stomach bloated.

"Prime Minister, it's getting late." He reminded, always feeling that it's not good for Inexplicable to get too close to Shao Yan.

Shao Yan finally put down his teacup, "I just want to remind Mr. Qi that there are many people in the city recently, so we must step up our guard against the palace to avoid problems."

"You mean those people still want to come to the palace for a stroll?"

Shao Yan blinked, "After all, everyone has curiosity."

Whoever can't think about it, it's not impossible to come to the palace to watch and have fun, after all, people from the Jianghu, the heart of the Jianghu.

"I understand now. It's getting dark, why don't you send your lord out?"

Shao Yan was curious, "What are you in a hurry to do?"

Qi Wei covered his mouth with his hands and pretended to cough twice, his face flushed, he couldn't bear Shao Yan's stubbornness, "Today there is a new score for the song and dance building, cough, that one, my sister likes it, it's inconvenient to travel, I'll take it to buy it Spectrum."

Shao Yan pinched his chin.

What does it mean to look thoughtful!

"Okay, it just so happens that I'm fine. The guards in the mansion are young and it's inconvenient to go into that kind of place, so I went with Mr. Qi and just happened to listen to the music of the singing and dancing hall."

Qi Wei, "..."

I have absolutely no intention of inviting you.

The night market is bustling.

The two of them changed into casual clothes and wandered slowly on the road. Among them were not uncommon people from the Jianghu in strange clothes, and the weapons they wore were even more strange. It was also a novelty to see so many people from the Jianghu at once.

In the night, the singing and dancing building is even more colorfully lit, with glazed brilliance.

As soon as the two tall and handsome men entered the singing and dancing building, they immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Hundreds of eyes turned brightly for a moment.

In fact, Qi Wei is fine, he walks along the side very low-key every time.

The key point is that the person next to him who stood out from the crowd sighed in admiration, "It's really lively."

Qi Wei, "..."

He wanted to find a hole to slip in.

Before Qi Wei opened his mouth, Shao Yan talked to the mother-in-law of the song and dance building first, and the first thing he said was to find a good seat for me.

He rarely came to these places, whether it was in his previous life or now, but he had heard a lot about them.

The building is magnificent, and the singing girls are dancing among the crowd.

On the side stage on the second floor, behind the curtain, holding the music score they just bought, the two of them had tea and snacks, listening to a musical play being played in the center of the stage downstairs.

The woman is graceful, and the man hangs a brocade with a sword on his body. A flute sounds, and the singer weeps and sings for a long time.

In the private room, Chen Huanluo got up and wanted to leave.

"Stop." Bai Zhaoyu moved slightly, and called him in a cold voice, "Huan Luo, you haven't finished your drink yet, where do you want to go?"

The man sitting in his arms was three points softer than the dancing girl downstairs.

Chen Huanluo tightly clenched his hands in his sleeves, the feeling of being humiliated made his body tremble slightly, he never thought that Bai Zhaoyu would bring him to such a place, and even let him learn these things of serving men.

Bai Zhaoyu pushed the young man in his arms away, hooked his chin, "Go, feed him this glass of wine, let him learn what it means to be gentle and pleasant."

—Don't forget who saved them.

——Don't forget who made you almost fall into this situation.

To be a slave or a prostitute.

His delicate face was only as pale as ashes, Chen Huanluo turned around, sat down, caught the wine offered by the young man and drank it in one gulp, one cup after another, choking his heart and lungs.

It was not until late at night that Shao Yan and Qi Wei bid farewell outside the gate of the mansion.

The old butler hastily opened the door for him, holding the night lamp in front.

When passing by the hut surrounded by green bamboos, Shao Yan paused, turned sideways and asked softly, "Has he eaten on time today?"

The old housekeeper laughed, "My lord, I ate at a friend's place, and the lamp was turned off not long after I came back.

Shao Yan nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
