The Laughing Usa of the Red Chamber

As soon as Shen Yulin said a word, everyone in front of the hall had different thoughts.

Glancing at Lian Bi whose eyes were twinkling slightly, Shen Yulin said again: "Take it down and sell it at a distance."

Chen Yanyu was in charge of the General's Mansion, and the spies from all the families couldn't get in. Only this Lianbi was bestowed by the concubine in an upright manner, and he couldn't be kept behind. But they forgot that he was a slave of the royal family and a slave.

With Chen Yanqing's words, the housekeeper didn't say much anymore. He was originally the secret agent of the Qi family, but he taught Chen Yanyu to capture the whole family. go down.

Qi Xiaozhi sighed: "The girl's home, Yulin...is it over?"

Chen Yanqing, who has always been simple and honest, never even frowned. Human life in border towns is worthless, and there are not a few servants who were accidentally beaten to death by their masters. At first, he would feel pity, but after seeing too much, he became numb. Now he still feels that Shen Yulin Too softhearted.

Shen Yulin said with a smile: "I hate this backdoor trick the most, but it's making Uncle Chen and Xiaozhi laugh at it."

In his previous life, he had survived many near-deaths, and he hated the spies, but this time he bumped into one in the general's mansion, and at the same time was worried about Zhao Yanran, so he got so carried away...

Shen Yulin's heart sank slightly, he... became impetuous.

Seeing his eyes drooping slightly, Qi Xiaozhi thought that he had touched something sad, and hurriedly said: "It's because I was thinking about it when I laughed..."

Thinking about it carefully, it's nothing. He was raised by a pair of old servants since he was a child, and he hasn't seen Yue Yue for 17 years. Although Lian Bi's name was given by the concubine, if it wasn't for her intention, how could he say such words? Is it a serious matter to act like a slave and sell a big-hearted slave?

Qi Xiaozhi took a sneak peek at Chen Yanqing, and said in his heart, dealing with the general's servants in the general's mansion, this is the only way...

Chen Yanqing didn't pay any attention to this little episode, and said to Shen Yulin: "Your mother is talking about you every day, come in quickly."

As he spoke, he lifted the curtain and stepped in.

He didn't understand the world, and he ignored Qi Xiaozhi. Seeing Qi Xiao's face full of uncontrollable disappointment, Shen Yulin comforted him: "Uncle Chen has such a temperament. Back then, Marquis Yunji chased after him for several days. Just changed the sentence 'what are you going to do'."

As he spoke, he couldn't hold back a low smile.

Qi Xiaozhi and Su Mingyin also recognize each other, and usually only think that he is unattainable, but never thought that he would have such a time, so he couldn't help laughing out loud.

He was originally a generous person, so he no longer restrained after hearing this, and followed Shen Yulin in.

All the way into the Hanging Flower Gate, the two of them saw exquisite and elegant decorations everywhere. Facing the floor-to-ceiling mercury mirror with golden thread borders, the orchids on the flower stand were even more beautiful and dusty, which made people's eyes shine.

Chen Yanyu's wife had avoided going out long ago, and only a few maids and Zhao Yanran who was leaning on the couch and embroidering flowers were left in the side hall.

After seeing each other for a month, Zhao Yanran's complexion became even better. She was wearing a long dress with a peach blossom brocade and light yellow girdle, which was extremely bright and charming. It could be seen that Chen Yanqing took good care of her.

"You little heartless person, you still know to come to see your old lady!" Zhao Yanran threw down the needle and thread in her hand, sat up straight, and hummed.

Shen Yulin said with a smile: "Mother, don't worry, my son has just received an errand, and he is naturally overwhelmed. Didn't he come here just after he had some free time?"

As he said that, he pulled Qi Xiaozhi over, "Qi Xiaozhi, I mentioned it to my mother."

Zhao Yanran looked and saw the smiling eyebrows slanted into his temples, his starry eyes were shining brightly, although his face was darker, but his facial features were very good, he was indeed a handsome young man.

Yulin mentioned that it was the destination he was looking for for Tanchun, but...

Tanchun...

Before Zhao Yanran came, she felt sad, but she saw behind the screen that Chen Yanqing was going out shirtless.

It's hot these days, Chen Yanqing always does this when she returns to the main hall, Zhao Yanran doesn't care, but today the child is here!

She hurriedly said, "Put on some clothes!"

Unknown, Chen Yanqing went in, stepped out, and said with a smile: "I'm not cold."

In the eyes of Shen Yulin and Qi Xiao, his strong and well-proportioned tendons were purely showing off.

Qi Xiaozhi is better, he is not weak among his peers, but he is a bit ashamed, Shen Yulin has spent two lifetimes in vain, seeing this scene, he can only sigh.

Chen Yanqing couldn't resist Zhao Yanran, so she went to find a shirt to tie.

Chen Yanqing was not used to serving others, she did everything by herself, the maids in the main hall were all serving Zhao Yanran, at first they felt weird, but after a long time, they no longer took it seriously.

Shen Yulin and Zhao Yanran hadn't seen each other for a long time, and soon they talked with Qi Xiaozhi.

Chen Yanqing took a dish of peanuts and sat beside him without interjecting, smiling innocently.

......

"Now that you are on an errand, you have to walk around more with others. I heard that the Imperial Academy is the most noble place, and there is no way for others to get in if they want to find connections..."

Zhao Yanran was really a beautiful woman when she was silent, but now that this string of words was slamming down, Qi Xiaozhi was dumbfounded.

Shen Yulin responded with a smile one by one, and said: "This year Enke is mostly old acquaintances from the academy, mother don't have to worry."

Zhao Yanran took the tea from Chen Yanqing, drank half a cup, and said: "You have been successful since you were young, I don't understand it, so I don't want to say anything, but remember not to offend others, the same goes for Kid Qi, Do your errands in a safe and sound manner, so that you can get ahead..."

Qi Xiaozhi listened, and the initial surprise and doubt faded away, but he felt a little swelled in his heart.

Their family was originally an aristocratic family from the previous dynasty, but it fell after the disaster of war, and only their line of direct lineage remained.His parents passed away early, and his elder brother devoted himself to becoming an official to revitalize the family business. No one has talked about him like this since he was a child.

Seeing the gentle look on Shen Yulin's face, Qi Xiaozhi couldn't help feeling envious and jealous.

The same is because his parents died young, why didn't he have such a foster mother to care about?

Seeing that Qi Xiaozhi's mood suddenly fell, Shen Yulin couldn't help saying: "Xiaozhi?"

Qi Xiaozhi couldn't hide what was on his mind, he just sighed and said: "It's okay, I just saw my aunt, and I miss my mother."

Zhao Yanran was aware of his situation, and felt that she must be getting along with Yulin to teach others to fall in love with each other. She couldn't help feeling guilty, and then remembered that this young man almost became her son-in-law, so she said: "Since you are a good friend of Yulin, you will come here often in the future. Even, my aunt also regards you as a son."

Chen Yanqing's eyebrows twitched, and his eyes scraped across Qi Xiaozhi's handsome face like a knife, as if he wanted to poke a hole in it.

Qi Xiaozhi is careless, he was overjoyed, and immediately smiled and said: "Auntie's kindness, Xiaozhi is willing... Xiaozhi thinks that Auntie is very kind, and wants to recognize you as a godmother, I don't know what Auntie wants?"

Chen Yanqing chewed the peanuts together with their shells.

Recognizing a verbal godmother is not a big deal, Zhao Yanran agreed with a smile, and the small gold-painted Wufu small porcelain plate containing peanuts in Chen Yanqing's hand cracked a crack and made a soft sound.

Seeing the three of them looking at him at the same time, Chen Yanqing put down the small porcelain plate as if nothing had happened, and smiled at Qi Xiao: "I'm called godfather."

Outside the window, the setting sun is slanting, and the years are quiet and beautiful.

☆☆☆☆☆.

After that day, because he was avoided intentionally or unintentionally, Ji Qian never saw Shen Yulin again.

As the days got hotter and hotter, the summer clothes were changed into spring clothes, and the second day of July was Shen Yulin's birthday.

Since it was the first birthday after he became an official, it should be more grand. Shen Xiang invited many acquaintances from the court and China for him, all of whom were naturally from Yongning's lineage.

Shen Yulin was the same as Shen Xiang today, wearing a jade-white light Confucian shirt, but the embroidered style is slightly different, from a distance, he looks like father and son rather than master and apprentice.

Some "smart people" looked at each other and smiled, tacitly.

The guests had already arrived, and Shen Yulin was about to start the banquet, but suddenly heard a cold voice coming from the door, "Today is Yulin's birthday, how can I miss my king?"

Everyone saw that it was Ji Qian who was wearing a bright purple cloud-patterned gown. Behind him were four attendants, two holding gift boxes and two holding whisks, all with lowered brows and narrowed eyes.

During the banquet, everyone quickly saluted together, Ji Qian waved his hands and shouted, Shen Xiangfang smiled and said: "My lord loves Yulin so much."

The corners of Ji Qian's lips curled slightly, and with a glance, someone had already cleared a good seat for him.

Shen Yulin smiled slightly and froze, holding the wine glass in his hand. After a banquet, he was so exquisite that he didn't even say a word. Under the eyes of those smiling black eyes, he only drank wine glass by glass with his head down.

"Even though it's fruit wine, it should be in moderation." Ji Qian's seat was right next to him, and at this moment, his whispered words seemed to ring in his ears, Shen Yulin's phoenix eyes drooped slightly, and he lowered his head not to look at him.

The little thing looks so much like the cat raised by the mother concubine, Ji Qian thought so, and stretched out his hand to rub the top of his hair.

Shen Yulin was startled, and lowered his head even lower, perhaps because of the strength of the wine, he felt his cheeks were hot, like a fire.

Others only said that the prince appreciated the young champion very much, but Shen Yulin felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

As a human being in two lifetimes, except for the elders, has anyone ever treated him like this, and he is still a homosexual who cares about him, but he has to avoid it, how can this not make him feel ashamed and angry.

Seeing that his face was flushed, Ji Qian smiled slightly and said, "But are you drunk?"

It was rare for Shen Yulin to see Ji Qian smiling so heartily, so he couldn't help shaking his head blankly.

"Also... I should be the one who was drunk..."

As Ji Qian said, he took the wine glass in Shen Yulin's hand, and drank half of the remaining wine in it.

Listening to his murmur, Shen Yulin felt that his ears were almost on fire, his cheeks were so hot that they were aching, but when he looked up, he saw the thin lips sticking to the wine glass he had used, and his heart felt a burst of pain. throbbing.

Although it is done in secret, no one will notice, but he, how could he... so...

"Would Yulin accompany me to sober up?" Ji Qian raised his thick eyebrows slightly, with a smile on his lips.

It happened that at this time Shen Xiang came back after toasting a round of wine, seeing his lover's face was flushed and there were several jugs of wine empty on the table, because he was worried that he would hurt himself if he drank too much, he said: "Alright, Yulin will take the prince to the courtyard for a walk , just to teach the prince to look at the place where the son is studying."
