Hypocrites

Deng Yang still didn't understand the meaning of those words, and he still repeatedly assured Liang Heng that he would never take Shen Yu to and from unruly places, let alone eat and drink indiscriminately.Liang Heng had already thought of more, not because he had a quick brain, but because he lived in a different environment from Deng Yang, and he was wary of the eunuchs around him day and night.

Liang Heng said: "Have you met Niu Lu?"

"No, what do you mean?"

Liang Heng's face turned dark in an instant, and Deng Yang guessed the implication when he said this: "You, you said it was the eunuch... the eunuch poisoned you?"

Liang Heng shook his head and asked the medical officer, "Is there a way to detoxify?"

The medical officer replied: "Xingsan Wan is not arsenic and poisonous wine. After taking it, you only need to have intercourse to relieve it. However, the patient missed the opportunity and suffered from internal heat and external cold. In addition, the previous doctor misused the dry medicine, and it was baked by charcoal fire for days... ..."

Deng Yang's face turned red.

"The internal heat is more severe, and the cold and heat are mutually intensified, so it can no longer be dissipated by the usual method. Another method is needed."

"If Mister has a way, just prepare and heal the person."

The medical officer did not dare to be negligent, and took the order to retreat.

Deng Yang said: "Do you suspect that Niu Lu poisoned it?"

Liang Heng said coldly: "Your family is close to Niu Yuan, maybe he accidentally found out that Brother Yu is still alive. Once Niu Lu knows, he will definitely tell his clan uncle Niu Shida, and Niu Shida will definitely tell Tong Fang With Qiu Zhiyuan. The eunuch's eyes are wide open, anyone may poison him. It's ridiculous, today I tried Qiu Zhiyuan, but he tricked me into thinking that he didn't know about Brother Yu."

Deng Yang didn't understand: "But why? Niu Lu might have reason to hate Shen Yu, and what kind of feud did those three in the palace have with Shen Yu, insisting on killing him?"

"The eunuchs colluded to protect each other and were each other's minions. Shen Gong killed Shan Guangyi and offended Liwu's Shan officials. Why did Qiu, Tong, and Niu, who were far away in Wangdu, instigated the fire in front of the late emperor? The three became tigers They know this truth very well. How can an eunuch compete with courtiers? Combined with the eyes, ears and contacts of the entire eunuch party, they can turn their hands into clouds and rain."

Deng Yang shuddered, and suddenly understood why Liang Heng would rather sneak out of the palace to see Shen Yu, rather than appoint a close minister to take him by his side.Not showing his face in front of people is still the end. If he really confronts the three eunuchs tit for tat, and Shen Yu is the son of a criminal minister, without an official, nobility and no backer, then he is really a mermaid.

"It's also possible," Deng Yang tried to make the situation easier, "it might be a misunderstanding, I really took someone else's aphrodisiac/medicine by mistake, and it might not be discovered by the eunuch's eyeliner. I have only been in the city for a few days."

After Deng Yang finished speaking, he wanted to slap himself and stuff this stupid thing back into his stomach—aphrodisiacs/medicines would only appear in two places, the flower building and the couple's bedroom, even if it was really a servant in Deng Yang's house messing around, how could he put The medicine got mixed into the guest's water.

There is no female worker in his family at all!

"Whether it's an eunuch or not, someone has the intention of doing harm anyway. It's not safe for brother Yu to stay in your house."

Liang Heng looked towards the courtyard in front of the steps of the hall, the branches were covered with severe frost, and the lamps were lit in the dark garden, the halo was weak and cold.The servants brought many ice cubes one after another, piled them up in the corners, and the edges and corners were hard, forming crystal hills.

Rich people often store ice in winter to prepare for summer heat in the coming year.

The medical officer ordered someone to fetch well water, which was kept in the iceberg, and almost all the water containers of the Deng family were activated. About a hundred buckets of water were all reflected in the starry sky above Wangdu City.

For a moment, the front yard was filled with cold air, and the stars twinkled.

"What is this for?" Deng Yang asked.

Liang Heng was also baffled, knowing that he saw the medical officer carrying Shen Yu out, laying a bamboo mat on the floor, and asked him to sit upright and take off all his clothes.Liang Heng used to sleep with Shen Yu in his arms, and vaguely knew his figure, but his back looked very thin and powerful, which was still beyond his imagination, and a little blood came to his face immediately.

Deng Yang shouted: "No, no! Mr. Mai, why did you tell him to be naked in the ice and snow? If he is not sick, he will freeze to death!"

yes!Liang Heng suddenly woke up with a jolt.

The doctor hall said loudly: "Not only do you have to take off your clothes to be frozen, but you also have to pour a hundred buckets of ice water over your body, and you will be applauded if you die from freezing!"

Deng Yang: "..."

Liang Heng: "..."

"He he he," Deng Yang said with difficulty, "Is he really saving Shen Yu?"

"I, I, I, I don't know," Liang Heng said blankly, "I used to seek treatment from him when I was sick. Could it be that even Mr. Mai has become Qiu Zhiyuan's lackey now???"

The two were undecided, and the medical officer's room had already started. Two robust servants carried a bucket of ice water and dumped it all over Shen Yu's body.Shen Yu sat with his back facing the hall, he didn't know if he was awake or in a daze, a puff of smoke rose from his head immediately, as if his soul ascended to heaven.

"You really want to do this?!" Liang Heng couldn't bear it.

Shen Yu didn't know if he heard his voice or what, his figure shook.

The medical officer replied: "If you don't fill up a hundred barrels, all your previous efforts will be wasted, and the cold will worsen!"

Bucket after bucket was poured down, and the icy water filled the flying stone pavement in the courtyard, and a thin layer of ice formed in the cold weather, which made the two people in the hall shiver.Looking at Shen Yu again, his back with a normal complexion seemed to be covered with hoarfrost, and the cold water poured on him no longer smoked, as if his popularity had dissipated.

"This won't work!" Deng Yang shouted, "It's going to kill you!"

Liang Heng: "Just...wait a little longer, we can't waste all our previous efforts."

Deng Yang: "Look, he's frozen!"

Liang Heng: "I know."

Deng Yang: "Look, he doesn't move anymore, he's frozen like a stick!"

Liang Heng: "Stop talking!!"

On the contrary, it was Deng Yang who was concerned about it and became confused, and became more impatient. Even though Liang Heng's face turned pale, he did not add to the chaos.

Liang Heng trembled uncontrollably, as if the ice water had been poured on his head, and he was the one who lost the temperature.It would be great if he could suffer for him, Liang Heng thought.

"I can't continue anymore! I've never seen this kind of therapy in my life!" Deng Yang couldn't bear it anymore, and suddenly took a closer look, and a puff of white smoke rose again from Shen Yu's body.

The smoke became more and more intense, and it continued to emanate from his hands, feet, vest, and top of his head.A layer of blood appeared on his pale skin, and then burned crimson.

"That's what's coming out." The medical officer breathed a sigh of relief.

In the hall, the medical officer prescribed a prescription, and instructed Deng Yang: "The most important thing tonight is to cover it with a quilt, so that there is no air leakage. When the heat radiates, he will unconsciously kick the quilt, so someone needs to take care of him."

"I'll go see him." Liang Heng got up.

Shen Yu's room was in the left wing, and the window sash in the room was covered with cloth, so as not to leak a trace of cold air, and the oil lamp dimly traced his quiet face.Liang Heng sat beside him, seeing his face flushed, he tried his forehead with the back of his hand, and sure enough it was burning.

"Aren't you going back?" Deng Yang urged.

Liang Heng was stunned for a moment, then said: "I'll stay and look after him tonight."

Deng Yang lost his voice.Liang Heng was not made to be an emperor, the fate of his blood pushed him to the throne, but he seemed to only want to be the carefree young prince who went to school with his friends in the prince's palace.

With such a half-hearted mentality, how can one survive in the center of the power vortex?Not to mention taking on the responsibility that should have been.

"I'll go back tomorrow morning." Knowing that he was hesitant, Liang Heng made a promise.

Deng Yang had no choice but to let the young emperor be self-willed.

There were two people left in the room, so quiet that only Shen Yu's regular breathing could be heard.Liang Heng didn't want to turn off the light, so he let the candlelight cover Shen Yu's face, his eyes traced carefully, it seemed that he had changed from a piece of ice to a piece of charcoal, and his breath was so hot that even Liang Heng could feel the heat.

Not long after, Shen Yu was really unsteady, and pulled the quilt off his chest.Liang Heng gave him a ride back, but was taken down again.

Liang Heng reached into the feather quilt and held Shen Yu's hand.It was as if a rolling iron had been immersed in cold water and found a vent, the hot current flowed into Liang Heng's heart along the place where the palms were touching.Shen Yu found a trace of coolness in his drowsiness, and unconsciously squeezed Liang Heng's hand tightly.

Liang Heng smiled slightly, and stretched out his other hand.

It was late at night, and the candlelight in the lampshade became the only light in the night.

"I'm really sleepy too, can I sleep next to you?" Liang Heng blew out the candle and asked in a low voice.

Of course Shen Yu acquiesced.With his heart pounding, Liang Heng took off his outer shirt and black shoes, and got into the hot goose feather quilt.As long as Shen Yushen fell asleep, Liang Heng would pretend that he was still the person who would stay with her until dawn on New Year's Eve, and could cling to him unscrupulously, with his face on his slightly open chest.

The night breeze blew on his cheeks, making it cool, and Shen Yu felt very comfortable after sticking it on, so he didn't lift the quilt anymore.

"Shen Yu..." Liang Heng said quietly, "Can you come to my side?"

Shen Yu's chest rose and fell, and his scorching breath hit Liang Heng's head.

"I'll help you whatever you want...don't leave me alone..." Liang Heng's voice gradually lowered, and he fell asleep easily next to Shen Yu.

Under the dark sky, the thin ice in the courtyard reflects the Milky Way, and the handle of the bucket hangs high in the north sky, like a silver bottle pouring down, and the light and shadow are colorful near the window.Shen Yu opened his eyes, his eyes were dark and unclear, and in the silence, he slowly hugged Liang Heng's back.

The rooster crows at five o'clock, and the sky is white.

The servants got up early to spread salt and cleared the ice in the courtyard to prevent slippery and fall.

The movement woke up Liang Heng. His limbs were wrapped around Shen Yu's body like vines, and they were tightly attached everywhere, so that he could feel the sequelae caused by the heat all night to a certain part of Shen Yu's body.

It happened that Shen Yu's waist was sandwiched between his legs, and his lower abdomen rubbed against that place. Liang Heng immediately realized that something was wrong, and was extremely embarrassed.Fortunately, Shen Yu hadn't woken up yet, and his relaxed expression in his sleep looked detached, calm and inactive, as if his fever had subsided and his condition had improved.Among them, it could not be without Liang Heng's credit for covering him tightly all night.

Liang Heng didn't dare to wake him up, and quietly crawled out of the bed.

"I'm leaving." Liang Heng bid farewell in a breathy voice.

Shen Yu's eyelids moved in response.

Liang Heng thought he was about to wake up, so he became nervous and slipped away immediately.

Deng Yang hadn't got up yet, the armor that Liang Heng wore yesterday was neatly placed on the front seat in the hall, Liang Heng put it on as it was, without Duan Yanling's help, it was really troublesome to put on.

Back to Zhangyi Palace, because the silver-armored guards of Tianlu Pavilion are the emperor's cronies, and there is no restriction on entering and leaving, Liang Heng was not subject to any interrogation.Even when he walked up to Tianlu Pavilion, Siji was still guarding the door, as if he hadn't left all night, he was so sleepy that he almost couldn't stand still, and he didn't notice anyone passing in front of him at all.

Needle drop could be heard in the attic.

Burnt cold incense wafted from the mouth of the copper furnace beast, Duan Yanling fell asleep behind the desk, and Xinzhou was arranging a table of volumes, when he heard the door open and close, he turned his head and hurriedly greeted Liang Heng.

Yesterday when Liang Heng left the palace, he didn't say that he would spend the night outside. Xinzhou stayed up all night waiting for him. At this moment, his eyes were black and blue, and his expression was a little tired.

Liang Heng, on the other hand, had a good night's sleep and was in a very happy mood. Under the service of Xinzhou, he took off his armor and put on his normal clothes, and asked, "Have you finished annotating Yanling?"

Shinshu nodded.

"Okay, let him go back to catch up on sleep."

Xinzhou noticed the little emperor's unusually brisk tone.
