Your favorite life

Seeing Heshen crying sadly, Hongli felt extremely uncomfortable.

"...Don't do this, Zhi Zhai. Maybe in the future when you enter the officialdom, I will have to be the emperor in front of others, but in private, I will always be your fourth master."

Hongli didn't expect his identity to be exposed so abruptly. He had thought of countless ways to tell him slowly, but it came suddenly, so it's no wonder that Zhizhai couldn't bear it.

Although it hurts to see Heshen crying Hongli, but for some reason, there is still a touch of relief in his heart.

Because He Shen was not overjoyed when he heard that he was the emperor, nor did he bow down in fear, but only the most real helplessness and pain.It can be seen from this that what He Shen really cares about is the fourth master, not the identity of the emperor.

This feeling is really wonderful.From childhood to adulthood, everyone's feelings for him are based on his identity.He was the prince then, and later the emperor.What everyone faces is not pure Hongli, and the feelings they give are not directed at pure Hongli.

Only Zhi Zhai, only this Zhi Zhai, whom he has known for several years, is facing the pure fourth master with the emotion in his heart.All thoughts are exposed in front of his eyes, without any cover.

Hongli's thoughts were extremely complicated, and he didn't know what else to say.Only the silent Hongli and the weeping Heshen were left in the room, and the atmosphere suddenly became very strange.

He Shen was not as optimistic as Hongli thought.

Although Hongli has repeatedly assured that nothing will change, he even told the situation after he entered the officialdom.But He Shen still felt empty in his heart, as if he was about to suffocate.

Hongli felt that sitting all the time was not a problem, so he hugged Heshen.Unexpectedly, what came into my eyes was a small face full of tears, and those big hazy eyes were full of fear, without focus.

Such a heartbroken appearance made Hongli's heart ache, and the relief just now disappeared in an instant.For a moment, it seemed as if someone had grabbed the most vulnerable place, and the pain was unbearable.

"Zhizhai, wake up."

He Shen raised his head, looking at the familiar face in front of him, his heart ached unbearably.He turned out to be the emperor, he turned out to be the current emperor.Thinking that he had revealed in front of him that he wanted to achieve success by knowing the emperor without any concealment, had he been watching his jokes all the time?

"Zhi Zhai, everything I have to you is true. In front of you, I am not the emperor, not long live, I am just your fourth master. You believe me."

Seeing that He Shen was still so sad, Hongli couldn't help revealing the secret deep in his heart.

"Do you still remember this jade pendant?" Hongli asked in a deep voice, taking out the jade pendant from He Shen's arms.

When he mentioned the jade pendant, He Shen was instantly distracted.

"This is what I gave you back then."

"You?" He Shen was stunned for a moment.That warm figure back then turned out to be the emperor?He actually knew the emperor so early?

"When we were intimate for the first time, I found this pendant. What I thought at the time was that my fate with Zhi Zhai was destined by heaven. I have known you since Zhi Zhai was so young."

Seemingly preparing for the next words, Hongli paused for a while before continuing: "Do you know Nalan Rongruo?"

When Hongli suddenly said this name, He Shen felt a little inconceivable.Still he nodded.How could he not know the number one talented man in the Qing Dynasty?

"He was poisoned to death by the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang."

"Ah?" He Shen exclaimed.It's incredible.The most dignified man of the Qing Dynasty, the most talented man, ended up like this?Almost instantly, He Shen knew that there must be some royal secret in it.

"The holy ancestor and Nalan back then are just like you and me today."

He Shen's eyes widened, seemingly in disbelief.

"Do you know why I dare not intervene in your errands? Let you wait in Xian'an Palace? I'm afraid, I'm afraid that I won't be able to protect you, and you will end up in the same fate as Nalan."

Hongli's tone gradually became agitated: "He was the imperial bodyguard back then, and he almost walked in and out with the holy ancestor. But with the wisdom of the holy ancestor, it is inevitable that there will be omissions, and it was this momentary negligence that cost Nalan his life."

"The holy ancestor was heartbroken back then, and he was not very close to the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang. I don't know if the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang regretted it. Anyway, I went there in a few years."

"Because of Nalan Rongruo's affection, even though Nalan Mingzhu has always supported the elder brother in his schemes, he did not lose his life."

When Kowloon seized the heirloom back then, He Shen also understood the thrills involved.

Suo'etu supports the prince, and Nalan Mingzhu supports the elder brother.In the end, Suo'etu was imprisoned by the Quanzong family, and soon died in prison.All his henchmen were dismissed from office and exiled, and his two sons were also executed.

Although Nalan Mingzhu was deposed from his position because of the crime of crony, but later he was reinstated as an official.The difference between the two is huge.

It turned out that He Shen didn't understand the reason, but only now did he understand after hearing Hongli talk about these royal secrets.

"Zhi Zhai, I don't want you to be accused of being a sycophant because of me, and I don't want you to die because of me. So I have been hiding my identity and dare not let others discover your existence. It took a long time to get close to you. I've made up my mind. So Zhizhai, don't be afraid, I'm just your fourth master, not the emperor, not long live."

Hongli talked badly, but He Shen was still a little dizzy, and he left Yixuan Pavilion in a daze.

Hongli felt that He Shen should think about it carefully, so he didn't stop him, but asked He San to send He Shen home.

He returned to the palace to deal with urgent business.

He Shen still felt a little overwhelmed along the way, and his mind went blank for a while.

Fourth master is the emperor?Your Majesty!No matter how much you think about not caring, can you really not care at that time?

Thinking of what Fourth Master said, He Shen took out the jade pendant in his arms, and the blurry figure in his mind became the shadow of Fourth Master.It turned out that they had already met at that time.

Is this fate?

Thinking about wearing this jade pendant for more than ten years, no matter how difficult it was, he never thought of selling it.

Later, I met Si Ye again in Guangji Temple, listened to Si Ye exhort him and taught him, and went to Yixuan Pavilion to talk about life, explain poetry and books, and Si Ye held his hand and taught him to copy the emperor's handwriting.

As time goes on, the friendship grows deeper.If there is no fourth master, he doesn't know what he will be like, he may be cynical or go with the world.

Thinking of his tolerance with fourth master during his relationship with fourth master, fourth master never showed any superiority in front of him.

Although He Shen has a gentle temper and tolerance on the surface, he is extremely proud in his heart. If it weren't for the kindness and gentleness of the fourth master all the time, how could he be willing to have friends with him and be subdued by his wife?

Thinking back on the past like this, one night passed without knowing it, and He Shen understood his thoughts.

Thinking back on the details of being with Fourth Master, He Shen gradually had an idea.

Since fate is destined, he will never let it go.What a sycophant, what a spoiled pet, let him go to hell.He will work hard and become an important minister standing beside fourth master.It will make everyone look up to fourth master and him, and make it impossible to slander the friendship between him and fourth master with dirty words.
