Rebirth of Yongle Merry

Shen Yunxu returned to the other courtyard at the foot of Bishan, Zhu Di had been waiting for him for a long time.

Taking Zhang Yu to inspect the Beibian camp, he originally thought that it would be a while before Zhu Di returned to Peiping, but he was surprised to see him standing under the wall of the Suli with his hands behind his back, dressed in a white and luxurious brocade embroidered He is well dressed, with thick eyebrows and deep eyes, and a tough bearing.The weather in early summer in May is exactly the flowering period of Sapphire, but the finely divided flowers similar to figs are covered by dense branches and leaves, but they are almost invisible.

Zhu Di turned around and looked at him peacefully, "Yun Xu, you came back very late today."

"Keep the prince waiting for a long time."

"I've never waited so long for anyone, but Yunxu, I don't mind making an exception for you."

Zhu Di's purple eyes were deep, and there was no expression of displeasure.This man would not confess his feelings frankly like Zhu Quan again and again, but his words and deeds made Shen Yunxu feel his heart throbbing.He never waited for anyone, but he was willing to make an exception for him, even Dai Sigong's rudeness, he also endured for him.Zhu Di is the monarch who will lead the Ming Dynasty in the future, with a high status, Shen Yunxu never thought that he would do this for him.

"Does your lord need some tea?"

"it is good."

Zhu Di replied with a smile, Shen Yunxu raised his head, only seeing himself in his purple eyes.

From the first time he was stared into by his eyes at close range, Shen Yunxu felt as if he had fallen into the vortex in the sea of ​​stars. Now in his eyes, he is the only one he sees!

The two walked under the long corridor. When the other courtyard was being rebuilt, Shen Yunxu had several large vats buried in the ground, with bronze bells hanging inside.His ancestral home is in Suzhou, and this idea originated from the Guanwa Palace built by Wu Wang Fucha for Xishi.There are many large vats buried in the ground of the Wa Palace in the Classic Records Museum, with hardwood floors on them. Whenever Xi Shi dances on it wearing wooden clogs, it will make a sound like a xylophone.He once asked Liu'er to experiment. When he plucked the strings in the corridor, the bronze bell could resonate with the rhythm of the piano, spreading the sound melodiously throughout the courtyard.

Connected to the main house is a small tea house with tea sets inside. Shen Yunxu’s intention is that when Zhu Di sits under the banana tree, tea can be continuously served, whether it’s day or night, he can enjoy it when chatting To Yuhua tea from Yingtian, his hometown.You can listen to the piano during the day, and listen to the chirping of mountain moths under the starlight at night. Unfortunately, after the renovation of the other courtyard, Zhu Di, who has been busy with military affairs, has never spared time to experience it.

"Yunxu, is this the place you prepared for me to drink tea?"

A bamboo mat was spread out under the banana tree, and Zhu Di sat on it with his knees bent, his clothes flowing, and his expression relaxed and casual.Liu'er brought the tea, and Shen Yunxu handed the teacup to Zhu Di's hand. The tea in the cup was up and down, and the tea was as green and clear as emerald.Zhu Di took a sip and looked at him with a half-smile. "If I waited for you for a long time, it would be worth it if I got this cup of tea."

Under such circumstances, Liu'er backed away wisely.

Shen Yunxu picked up the exquisite blue and white ceramic teapot and refilled the empty teacup. Zhu Di frowned and looked at the blood stained on the hem of his robe.

"Why is there blood on your body?"

Only then did Shen Yunxu realize that the hem of his robe was stained with the blood of Mrs. Wang's body.He stared blankly, then suddenly pushed away the tea tray and staggered to his feet. He couldn't sit and drink tea with Zhu Di calmly after knowing that so many innocent people died because of him.Because of Zhu Quan, he had one more chance to start all over again after death than others, but because of this, he was even more unable to ignore the death of the people around him.

"Yunxu, what's wrong with you?"

Zhu Di held his hand to prevent him from walking away, Shen Yunxu turned around, but didn't know what kind of mood he should use to face this person. "My lord, what do you want to tell me about pyrophyllite?"

"How would you like me to answer you?"

Zhu Di looked at him calmly, but never let go of his hand.Shen Yunxu shook his head and said: "That Mrs. Wang, I ate the noodles cooked by her, and the house she lived in was also designed and built for them. But today she died, and was hacked to death by her husband with a knife. By speculating in pyrophyllite, they owed a huge debt that they would never pay off for the rest of their lives, and even their six-year-old child was almost killed by the knife. Why is this happening, my lord, why is this happening?!"

"Yun Xu, I know you're having a hard time."

Zhu Di pressed his shoulders, trying to calm him down. "For a long time, you have put all your thoughts on improving and building the garden, and your temperament is indifferent to the world. I shouldn't involve you in it."

Shen Yunxu looked at Zhu Di, it wasn't that he took the responsibility away, so he could justify it.He could understand Zhu Di's choice. Zhu Yuanzhang killed almost all the founding heroes in his later years. The Lanyu case alone involved more than 2 people.After Emperor Jianwen came to the throne, he immediately arrested his uncles and imprisoned him. King Zhou, who had been on his pulse for him, was also dispatched to Yunnan.

After being reborn once, he knows better than anyone what direction things will go.And Zhu Di already had a premonition about his future, so he would not let himself be in a passive position.It's not that Shen Yunxu doesn't know the price of sacrifice, but the death of Mrs. Wang made him realize that he is powerless to watch those living people die one after another, especially when he himself becomes an accomplice!

When he decided to leave Suzhou and come to Beiping, he had the idea of ​​changing some of Zhu Di's decisions, but now looking back, he thought everything too simply.Being in the vortex, it is impossible for Zhu Di to change anything, otherwise he will be the one who perishes.

"All this is not your fault."

Zhu Di still didn't let go of his hand, Shen Yunxu supported his forehead in pain, "My lord, please let me be alone for a while."

Ever since he saw Mrs. Wang's corpse, he couldn't calm down. At midnight, Shen Yunxu woke up from a nightmare, covered in sweat.I found that Zhu Di was no longer around, he was ordered to supervise the construction of Datong City, and he was leaving Beiping in the morning, so I specially took the time to meet him this night.The two of them were like that night in the Mongolian pasture, Zhu Di still had a knife wound on his body, hugging each other and sleeping in the same bed.

The moonlight was clear outside the room, and Zhu Di stood alone under the wall of Xueli, lost in thought, until Shen Yunxu approached from behind and didn't realize it.

"My lord!"

"Can't sleep?"

Zhu Di turned around and looked at him under the moonlight, his faint purple eyes were so deep that he couldn't see the edge.Shen Yunxu couldn't take his gaze away. He was attracted from the first sight, and he often followed people with admiring eyes.

"Yunxu, we are already together, but you still look at me like this."

Zhu Di stretched out his hand to caress his brows and eyes, with a kind of doting tenderness. "It's already May, and the rapeseed flowers in Zhongdu have withered long ago, and the peaches and apricots in Jiangnan should also bear fruit. I suddenly envied the age of seventeen. If I was still young, I might be able to let go of many things freely."

He took his hands back and raised his face slightly to look at the bright moon in the sky.

The moonlight reflected on his sharp-edged facial features. It was the first time he had close contact with Zhu Di in the study. He rubbed his fingertips over the paper painted with horse heads on the wall. What he showed at that time was this kind of confrontation. The nostalgia of missing my hometown in the south of the Yangtze River.Shen Yunxu was overwhelmed by the sudden heartache, he already understood what kind of decision Zhu Di had made since he stayed up all night.

He has always been like this, when he is completely off guard, he makes certain decisions cleanly.

He blurted out in exclamation, "My lord!"

"You can always read my mind easily."

Zhu Di looked at him, his purple eyes were deep and clear. "If I were still seventeen years old, I would leave with you, but Yunxu, I'm sorry."

Shen Yunxu's eyes were clouded with mist, Zhu Di couldn't give up everything for him, except for his feelings for him, he also shouldered heavy responsibilities, implicating countless people's heavy responsibilities, no matter what he couldn't give up.But as long as he ever had such a thought, it was enough for him.

"Yunxu, when I met you again in the Mongolian tribe, I thought about keeping you by my side in the future. But now I don't want you to see my brilliance in your eyes, because the contradictions and conflicts over and over again have polished me. .Your physique is not suitable for staying in Beidi, I will send someone to send you back to Jiangnan, maybe you will recover soon."

"My lord!"

Shen Yunxu's tears fell, and Zhu Di took all the responsibility on himself, but he couldn't stay by his side to share it for him.Did he really just leave like this?Zhu Di pressed his shoulders, and said in a steady and forceful voice: "Yun Xu, if I succeed, I will personally find you in Jiangnan."

This is Zhu Di's promise to Jiangnan. Under his firm eyes, Shen Yunxu is no longer afraid of the upcoming parting.

This night, in the end, changed the taste.

Shen Yunxu was pressed between the bed pillows by Zhu Di, his bare body was sticky with sweat, and it was hard to tell whether it was his or the other party.Zhu Di's heat was deeply buried in his body, as if his whole body was scalded, he moaned unbearably, and bent his legs around his strong waist.It turns out that this is what it feels like to be lingering to death. The pleasure is like a wave, engulfing both of them in the vortex of desire.

At the Shuncheng Gate in the south of the capital city of Beiping, Shen Yunxu said goodbye to Qi Zhaonan and Shen Kunwu who came to see him off.

"Young master, have a good journey."

Shen Kunwu tugged on Shen Yunxu's sleeve, but finally let go reluctantly.He and Qi Zhaonan have decided to adopt Mrs. Wang's son, and this matter has also been agreed by Qi Kan.Shen Yunxu got into the carriage, raised the curtain and waved goodbye to them. "Kunwu, remember to take care of Xiaodoudou, and go back to Jiangnan if you have a chance."

The carriage started slowly, and gradually the tall towers and the people seeing off were gone.

Going all the way to the south of the Yangtze River, the long journey made Shen Yunxu feel very tired. If he hadn't brought Dai Sigong's specially prepared pills with him, he might have fallen ill due to exhaustion.His physique is getting worse and worse, which is the main reason why Zhu Di sent him back to Jiangnan.

Entering the territory of Hangzhou Mansion, as long as you persist for another two or three days, you can reach your aunt's house.Shen Yunxu stood in front of the inn door, waiting for the coachman to drive the carriage out.And behind him, Feng Ziyao and a Gong student were also leaving the inn.

"Zi Yao, what's wrong?"

Seeing his footsteps stop, Gong Sheng looked at him suspiciously.Feng Ziyao's eyes kept falling on Shen Yunxu's body. From where they were standing, what they saw was Shen Yunxu's profile, lake blue robes, and handsome and gentle eyebrows. Standing casually in front of the inn door, it was impossible to move. The feeling of looking away.

"Did you see that man? He aroused my desire."

Gong Sheng laughed obscenely, "You go up and talk to him, if he ignores you, I will lose you a lot of money."

The carriage drove over, and Shen Yunxu was only one step away from getting on the carriage, but was stopped by Feng Ziyao.

"Wait a minute."

The tall figure covered him, and Shen Yunxu turned around, stunned.This year, Feng Ziyao was 22 years old. He had just passed the imperial examination and was admitted as a Gongsheng student, and his official career was unfolding before his eyes.He thought that he died in the prison and was reborn, and he had no connection with this person, but he never thought that he would meet him in this place.

"We are all going in the direction of Qiantang. I want to go with you, is that okay?"

Meeting Shen Yunxu's jade-like black eyes, Feng Ziyao, who has always been deep and secretive, only felt his heart flutter. The front of this person fascinated him more than the side view.In an instant, he almost forgot his original intention to speak up, raised his eyebrows and smiled, conceited that Shen Yunxu could not refuse his smile.

"It's a beautiful thing that we can take care of each other on the road."

"It's not necessary."

Shen Yunxu refused, no matter whether it was before or after rebirth, he no longer liked this person.He was once moved by him, and was betrayed by him in the end. Now he is in a different way, and he never wants to have any contact with him.The carriage gradually drove away, Feng Ziyao stayed where he was, his face turning red and turning green.

"His nail is really simple."

Gong Sheng smiled maliciously and walked up from behind, Feng Ziyao had a gloomy look in his eyes.

In the evening of the same day, Shen Yunxu stayed at the inn, and the torturers also came one after another.

Facing him face to face, Feng Ziyao resorted to the most vicious method, assigning torture soldiers to arrest him and put him in prison.In the long and dark passage, in the cold prison, Shen Yunxu suddenly found that things were going in a familiar direction.

The last time he brought a snow-white fox all over his body back to Hangzhou Mansion from Gouling Mountain, he met Feng Ziyao in the inn, and then he had an accident and was beaten to death in prison.Everything that was vividly seen happened again in front of my eyes.He went to Beiping to find Zhu Di, and then followed Zhu Quan to Beyond the Great Wall, where he was imprisoned in a Mongolian ranch for two years... After so much, everything went back to the original point.

The heavy chains were locked, leaving only darkness in the cell.

He sat down slowly along the corner, feeling that his life was as unreal as a dream.

After Zhu Quan received the letter sent by Zhang Fu, he rushed to Beiping immediately, but when he arrived, Shen Yunxu had already left for Jiangnan.

So he continued to chase Jiangnan without stopping.

After being imprisoned all night, the door of the cell opened, and the light shone on Shen Yunxu's body. He slightly opened his eyes, and then saw Zhu Quan striding in.

"Seventeen?"

For a moment, it seemed that the dream was expanding, Shen Yunxu tried hard to get up, but there was no way to do it.Zhu Quan picked up his bruised body, carefully trying not to press on his wound, Shen Yunxu frowned slightly, and suppressed the pain in his throat, making his whole heart bleed.

"Yunxu, why is this happening? Why is this happening!"

Shen Yunxu shook his head weakly, the ending seemed to have been predetermined long ago, and even he himself didn't know what went wrong.

Zhu Quan's tears fell on the back of his hand, "Yun Xu, I'll take you back to find Master, he must have a way to save you."

"Seventeen, don't run around for me anymore."

A wry smile appeared on Shen Yunxu's lips. The pills that Dai Sigong specially prepared for him were all destroyed by the criminal soldiers. Even if he didn't die from his injuries, he wouldn't live long given his physique, and he would have to leave eventually. "Do you still remember the autumn tide on the Qiantang River? It's almost Mid-Autumn Festival again, can you take me up the embankment to have a look?"

"Yunxu, if you want to go, I will accompany you."

Zhu Quan bowed his head and kissed him gently on the forehead.

Shen Yunxu's eyes were covered with moisture, he knew the blood and dust on his face, but Zhu Quan seemed to be kissing his most beloved treasure, as gentle as if he was afraid of breaking him.The warm breath fell on his cool skin, and the envy in his eyes has not diminished because of more than two years of separation, it is still as strong as before.

Zhu Quan left the cell with Shen Yunxu in his arms, and the inspector, Ye Zhiqiu, brought Feng Ziyao and knelt outside to plead guilty.Angrily, he kicked Feng Ziyao's chin off and kicked him flying. "Yun Xu, how do you want me to deal with this person?"

Shen Yunxu closed his eyes weakly, "I don't want to see him again."

Blood was hanging from the corner of Feng Ziyao's mouth, he kept raising his head to look at Shen Yunxu, but he never opened his eyes to look at him again.He twitched the corner of his mouth unwillingly, but his jaw was kicked off by Zhu Quan, but he couldn't say a word.Zhu Quan called Yao Ping over, "Take these two people into the cell, and the prison guards who did something to Yun Xu, whatever punishment they gave, I will pay them back ten times!"

After speaking, he hugged Shen Yunxu and left without looking back.

The Qiantang River estuary with high beaches and shallow water is full of people watching the autumn tide.

Zhu Quan has always held Shen Yunxu in his arms. When he was a fox, he used to run across the dam of Hengjiang River here.

The tide rolled up the sand to beat the snow, and the surging waves rushed straight into the sky.It was a spectacular scene that he had never seen in his life. He was ecstatic and obsessed with chasing the tide that was moving forward like a white wall.In the end, Shen Yunxu grabbed his tail and hung his body upside down, scratching his paws in mid-air.Shen Yunxu said to him: "Don't run around, be careful of falling into the water, you won't be able to save it even if you save it."

The tide slapped on the embankment, splashing a water column several feet high, and the waves splashed, like rain and snow falling from the sky all over the sky.In the gentle watery eyes, his sanity and mood all became heavy.He jumped into Shen Yunxu's arms, gently licked the back of his hands with the tip of his tongue, and stood with him on the embankment facing the wind, watching the unique and magnificent autumn tide of Qiantang in the world.The tide surged and the waves piled up, that's how he fell in love with this man who smelled as good as the scent of flowers and plants on his chest.

Shen Yunxu leaned her face against his chest and remained silent.

"Yun Xu, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Zhu Quan choked up his voice.

He thought that Shen Yunxu would never be left alone to suffer in prison, nor would he die easily again.But he was still one step too late. It turned out that no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't change Shen Yunxu's fate.Seeing that he was about to die made him feel more distressed than facing the cold and stiff corpse covered with bruises and bloodstains from torture.

"Seventeen, when I was in prison last night, I had a dream."

Shen Yunxu recalled the scene in the dream: "In the dream, you and the lord, as well as General Zhang and his son, were playing horse-slings. In the end, you were the one who won, and your fourth brother lost so badly. I watched from the side, and everyone Laughing heartily, only after waking up did I realize that the dream was impossible, General Zhang would soon die in battle, your fourth brother would also become the emperor of Ming Dynasty, nothing would change."

There was a wry smile on his lips, "Even your master, he can't change the destiny, Seventeen, don't let him waste his practice for me."

"The only person you've ever liked is my fourth brother, isn't it?"

Zhu Quanhuan's strength on Shen Yunxu's waist intensified, and all the sourness poured into the eye sockets.Shen Yunxu raised his head and looked at him, his eyes were also gradually blurred.

"I'm sorry I didn't meet you sooner."

"Yun Xu—"

Zhu Quan was so choked with tears that he couldn't speak.

That time, outside Zhu Di's study, he missed Shen Yunxu while turning around.If he hadn't turned around at that time, would everything have been completely different?

"Seventeen, don't feel sorry for me anymore."

Shen Yunxu's hand lowered slowly.

Zhu Quan cried out, "Yun Xu, even if you can't have me in your heart, I still can't just watch you die. I'll take you back to find Master, and I'll take you back to find him, okay?"

Shen Yunxu shook his head slowly, he was hugged by Zhu Quan, and he could feel the warmth from his chest.This time, he no longer died alone in prison, there was someone who was always warm and accompanied him.

He murmured, "Seventeen."

Zhu Quan lowered his head to look at him, but his eyes were closed and never opened again.

"Yun Xu, Yun Xu!"

Huge waves beat against the dam, and the water column was several feet high, and the waves splashed.Zhu Quanfu cried bitterly on Shen Yunxu's body, and tried his best to love once, but he still lost this person in the end.
