The Philosopher's Dandy Dream

Glasses of wine made the drinker dizzy, and Liu Shenyan gradually felt that Yu Zeshun in front of him was about to become two people.Forced to brace himself up, Liu Shenyan said vaguely, "It's late at night, so let's go and rest!"

Rest?Yu Zeshun covered himself again, "A bed."

A bed?Liu Shenyan tried his best to open his eyes. The wine was really strong, although he couldn't taste anything, "No, it's okay. Here, why is this wine..."

"If you leave it for a long time, it will become lingering... It used to be regarded as strong wine, but it was me, uh, it was too long..." Before Ze Shu could finish speaking, Liu Shenyan was already staggering and a little unsteady.Yu Ze suddenly got up, helped Liu Shenyan into the house.

"Rest!" After Yu Zeshun pushed Liu Shenyan to the inside of the bed, he lay on his side on the outside of the bed.

Xu was tired after a whole day of tossing around, and it was dawn in no time.

Before the beating sound stopped, Liu Shenyan opened his eyes and saw Yu Zeshun get off the bed.

"What? It's not easy to take?" Liu Shenyan found that his voice was a little hoarse.

Yu Zeshun handed Liu Shenyan a glass of water.

"Warfighters don't pay that much attention."

"Be particular about it?" Liu Shenyan smiled, "I'm afraid I won't have the chance to be particular about it."

"Yes! For our group of generals, there is indeed no chance, but each of the group of soldiers is waiting for three acres of land, a cow, and their wives and children are hot on the kang. They don't pay much attention." Yu Zeshun rolled up his own Sleeves, went to the well outside the door to fetch a bucket of water, and handed Liu Shenyan a basin by the way, "Let's make it alive."

Then he sat at the door, fiddling with the knife he carried with him.

Looking at the pot in his hand, Liu Shenyan weighed it in. It was quite heavy, and the material could not be seen clearly. He estimated that it had been used for many years, "Tsk tsk, this thing is probably..."

"Afraid of what?" Yu Zeshang stopped wiping his knife and looked back at Liu Shenyan.

Liu Shenyan got up and poured the water from the bucket into the basin, "It's an antique."

"Not bad." Yu Zeshun gave Liu Shenyan an appreciative glance, lowered his head and continued wiping the knife, "It has indeed been with me for several years."

Liu Shenyan looked at his own reflection in the basin, fortunately, he was not too haggard, so he splashed some water on his face, it was really cold.

"Heh, he is really the handsome cousin of Wanchen."

"Huh?" Yu Zeshun was a little confused.

"Like the grown-up in my family, although he said it simply, it's still hot soup. To you, it's like well water..." Liu Shenyan laughed and soaked his whole hands in the water, which was really bitingly cold.

"Just get used to it!" Yu Zeshun threw a face towel from his side to Liu Shenyan, "I'm afraid you, my son, can't bear it."

"Tsk tsk, there's no other way, isn't it?" Liu Shenyan took a handful of water and poured it on his forehead, "Is this always the case at General Yu's house?"

"Otherwise?" Yu Zeshun wiped the knife, raised it above his head, cold light shone, yes, Yu Zeshun put the knife back into the scabbard in satisfaction.

"You like that knife?"

Liu Shenyan took a basin and poured a basin of water into the courtyard.

"It's my life." Yu Zeshun's words seemed to be addressed to Liu Shenyan and to himself.

"Oh." Liu Shenyan walked to the well with a bucket, put it aside, then pulled a hemp rope to hoist up a bucket of water, and then poured it into the bucket he carried over, but the bucket wasn't full?Liu Shenyan let go and let the bucket fall into the well, splashing some water.

"Tsk, this rope is really rough." Liu Shenyan felt strange pulling the second bucket of water up. The well seemed to be very deep.

"I braided it." Yu Ze swept Liu Shenyan's hand pulling the rope, and it seemed that there was no callus.

Yu Ze got up and walked to Liu Shenyan's side, quickly picked up two buckets of water, filled the bucket that Liu Shenyan brought over, "It's done."

"..."

……

When it was time for dinner, Liu Shenyan was a little surprised, Yu Zeshun was really a wonderful flower in Beijing, and he did almost everything by himself.Even, his own small courtyard is almost self-contained, with a small, low kitchen.

"You've always been so self-reliant?" Liu Shenyan poked the small dish in front of him with his chopsticks, stir-fried tofu with shallots?

"You should like something bland." Yu Zeshun sat across from Liu Shenyan, looking at Liu Shenyan's chopsticks poking in a pile of tofu.

"How do you know?" Liu Shenyan was taken aback for a moment. It seems that there are not many people who know that he likes bland food. Generally, those who know him well think that he prefers meat.

"Yun Xiao...uh, Jiuliu once... mentioned it." Yu Zeshun was a little embarrassed.

"Jiu Liu..." Hearing this name, Liu Shenyan's hands trembled, "How did she know?"

"She, she said that you prefer light pastries, and that when you eat meat, you always frown indistinctly..." Yu Zeshun lowered his voice as he spoke, he was just casual before. Ask, now, how can I remember so clearly?

Listening to a man talking to him about how familiar a woman is with his taste, Liu Shenyan couldn't move his hand, opened his mouth, hoarse his voice, and tried to find his own voice, "She...is she okay? ..."

"...Okay..." Yu Zeshun responded casually, with a bit of worry on his face, it was really unclear what happened to Yun Xiao now.

"In... Yufu?" Liu Shenyan was a little afraid to ask. Last year, he remembered that Jiuliu was seriously ill.

"It's gone." Yu Ze sighed.

"Really? I used to expect her to live a long, long life." Liu Shenyan was inexplicably melancholy. Although he knew in his heart that Jiuliu had gone, he never got a letter of approval. Now the coffin is closed...

"Huh?" Yu Ze's face remained calm, and he was a little surprised in his heart. Liu Shenyan probably didn't know the identity of his sister, "It's just a flower house..."

Liu Shenyan listened to Yu Zeshu talking about Hualou, so he interrupted, "Jiu Liu is not someone who can choose Hualou's background. In that Hualou, Jiuliu can be regarded as a strange woman."

"A strange woman?" Yu Ze smiled wryly, he was not surprised at all that his sister was a strange woman, she was born in a family, and she couldn't help herself in everything, it really hurt her.

"Yes!" Liu Shenyan picked up a piece of tofu and put it in his mouth. "When we met for the first time, she bumped into my arms and asked me, son, if you will be a king. I said yes, and then she said I said to my mother behind me, this son agreed to take care of me, and then she dragged me into the wing room."

"Then?"

"Then she pulled out a knife."

"……Then?"

"Searched all the silver in my body."

"then?"

"Pull off the young master's clothes and escape from the window."

"...the second floor?" Yu Zeshun tried to ask, Yun Xiao's body is not good, jumping out of the window may be a bit reluctant.

"Yes... I went to see it the next day, and there was a man-high haystack underneath... It is said that she worked in the back kitchen for several days, and that pile of straw was stacked by herself for several months..." Liu Shenyan thought about the past Things, once again amazed that in this era, there are women who are so thoughtful.

Yu Zeshun didn't care about this, but just looked at Liu Shenyan, "You didn't resist?"

"Why?" Liu Shenyan smiled, "A weak woman..."

"It's very dangerous for you to be like this... It's not necessarily weak..." Yu Zeshun hesitated to speak, Liu Shenyan's thoughts like this may easily lead to death very quickly, and there are not many women in aristocratic families who are easy to get along with.

"Really?" Liu Shenyan glanced at Yu Zeshun indifferently, as if to tell him not to worry, and picked up another piece, "Life and death are fate..."

Yu Zeshun looked at Liu Shenyan in front of him. It's not a good feeling for an official son to be in such a state of mind. However, there are some things that he knows well... Yu Zeshun suppressed his worries and changed the subject , "Then why did she finally arrive again..."

"It is said that her father disliked her slavery, so she sold herself again." Liu Shenyan smiled. Although he did not agree with Jiuliu's actions, he admired her heart, because she sold herself, not herself. Gan is lowly, but she took off a bit of vulgarity, and became calm and calm, like an empty valley orchid, and her temper is strong, standing there is a kind of contradiction, "I gave her the word 'Jiu Liu'. The left side of the word is a king, and it is a stone. , 'Jiu' and 'Liu', the jade is dusty."

"Heh..." Yu Ze sneered and said, "It's lucky to meet you for being so stubborn."

"Jiulu, she's still a miserable woman..."

"Really?...Holding you with a knife...so...I don't know what to say about you!!" Yu Zeshuang's face turned cold, how many things Yun Xiao did after breaking his promise, was his father Knowing that he didn't tell himself, it's still...Yu Zeshun's heart turned cold, his father...

Liu Shenyan looked at Yu Zeshun's face turned cold, thinking that she couldn't get used to Jiuliu, so she added, "She often throws some hairpins to some beggars."

"Oh?" Yu Ze frowned.

Liu Shenyan glanced at Yu Zeshun's reaction and continued.

"She said those kids reminded her of herself..."

"Really?...I don't know about this..." Yu Zeshun was a little lost. What exactly happened to Yun Xiao after he and his father changed the battle, he didn't know. After a few years, when he learned about her again, She is already in Hualou.Listening to Liu Shenyan's words, Yun Xiao seemed to have had a desperate time, did she miss something?

"Really?..." Liu Shenyan was silent for a moment, and then he was surprised to find that he was the only one eating the plate of tofu, "Why don't you eat it?"

"There is only one pair of chopsticks!"
