Moon Maze Ferry

Lu Fufeng slammed the cup on the ground, and cursed: "This little bastard, he really doesn't know what to say to the extreme, completely disregarding ethics and etiquette, acting recklessly, and has no sense of shame!"

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, he picked up a cup and wanted to smash it hard, but someone lightly grabbed it in his hand.

Lu Fufeng looked up and hurriedly said in panic: "It turns out that the prince is here, this... this damned slave, why didn't he notify you."

Yiren smiled and said, "You're welcome, I told you not to bother to pass it on."

Today he was wearing a lavender-colored robe and a camisole-colored vest, which made his skin fairer. He waved a gold-painted fan in his hand, making him look even more handsome.

Behind him was a man in black with a thin face, expressionless, always following behind Yiren, following Yiren's footsteps fast and sometimes slow, always maintaining a fixed distance, like a marionette.

Yiren sat down on Lu's red sandalwood Eight Immortals chair, and said with a smile, "Is it because of the exhibition pavilion?"

"This, this..." Lu Fufeng sighed and fell into the chair.

"I have also heard about this matter. Although it is a good thing that Concubine Huimin escaped from death, it violated the rules of many ancestors. Several royal officials said that they would jointly report to the emperor to rule Zhanting is a capital crime, and I am working on this matter!"

"This little bastard doesn't understand the etiquette of men and women, and the etiquette of superiority and inferiority. He disregards human life. He should be punished!" Lu Fufeng said angrily.

Yiren smiled but said nothing, he took the blue and white porcelain bowl, flipped the floating leaves on it with the lid, and said indifferently: "Lu Zhanting is wild by nature, it is reasonable for him to do some outrageous things.

"However, there are rumors that his medical skills are so superb that he is worthy of being the second son of the Lu family. It's just that he is young and he is a little edgy."

When he said this, seeing Lu Fufeng's face turned pale, he continued to smile and said: "Young people will always make some mistakes, and parents and elders have to take more care of them." After speaking, he put down the tea bowl and said that he still had things to do elsewhere go.

Lu Fufeng sent him out the door all the way, Yiren got on the sedan chair, and the man in black approached him and said, "It seems that the rumor that Lu Zhanting is not Lu Fufeng's biological son is true, otherwise he would not have provoked Yushi to kill his son .

"I think he was really angry this time. Lu Zhanting cured Hui Min, who was sentenced to death, it was almost like slapping him in the face. He said he wanted to punish Lu Zhanting for his crime of indecency, rather than reward him for his skills." Not as good as a man's resentment."

"This Lu Fufeng wants to save face the most. Now that Lu Zhanting is famous, it's no wonder he doesn't want a piece of the pie."

"It's just that Lu Zhanting really doesn't know what to do, and wasted all the painstaking efforts of the prince."

"Lu Zhanting is Lu Zhanting, he is not Lu Zhanting if he doesn't act rashly." Yiren smiled disapprovingly, and he smiled softly: "Let's think of other ways, but he still has to stay in the palace and suffer some more. "

Less than a day later, Lu Fufeng, the oldest academician of the Inner Hospital, pleaded guilty to the emperor, weeping and crying, saying that he had no way to teach his son, he only taught medical skills, but forgot to pass on medical ethics to his second son Lu Zhanting, so that Lu Zhanting For doing such a rebellious thing today, he begged the emperor to punish him and Lu Zhanting together.

All the ministers pleaded for Lu Fufeng one after another, and Yiyu refuted it very simply, saying: "Healing the sick and saving lives, human life is a matter of heaven and earth, and matters of urgency should be followed by power, where are there so many taboos."

Yiren just smiled lightly when he heard this, and he patiently appeased some whining censors.After seeing off the endless stream of people, the man in black said, "If Lu Zhanting finds out that the lord has bothered you so much for him, his body will be broken and he will not be able to repay the lord."

Yiren sighed slightly, as if he had some long-suppressed emotions, but also seemed to be a little emotional, and said softly: "Lu-zhan-ting!"

Lu Zhanting was playing with the spider right now, he had no idea that his fate had turned upside down a few times.

Spider flattened a piece of red handmade mud, made many small holes with the tip of a needle, and pressed some shallow wrinkles on it with a dishwashing loofah, and a mole that could almost be faked was released.

Lu Zhanting was both surprised and delighted, and said, "Spider, what a skill!"

Zhu'er glued it to his face, beat his waist and said, "Miss, please do me a favor, please give me a reward! Look at the cold weather, the old man's waist and legs hurt!"

She made Lu Zhanting laugh out loud, and kept asking where he learned it.Zhu'er was a little embarrassed, and said that she had a hobby of imitating others since she was a child. Every time she went home to visit relatives, her biggest hobby was to lie on the fence of her house and watch the people outside.

Huimin was sitting by the wall basking in the sun. Although her face was pale, she was in good spirits. Her eyebrows were thick and raised high, giving off a provocative air, but the lines of her lips were extraordinarily soft. , Even if there is no expression, it is half a smile.

Hui Min looked at Lu Zhanting and Zhu'er who were playing, and suddenly thought, if Lu Zhanting doesn't dislike Zhu'er being ugly, and Zhu'er doesn't dislike Lu Zhanting being a eunuch, then there's nothing wrong with them being a couple.

Huimin can't be considered a kind person. Years of court life have made her a hard-hearted person.

But for some reason, when she heard Lu Zhanting's hearty laughter and Zhu'er's cheeks were flushed red with joy, she couldn't help feeling a little tenderness in her heart.If her children can live to this day, they will be about the same age as them.

"Brother Lu, if you recover from your illness, will you go back?" Zhu'er hugged her knees, looked at Lu Zhanting who was concentrating on cutting branches with a knife, and asked in a low voice: "Will you forget to come when you are busy?" see us?"

Lu Zhanting waved the branch, smiled sideways and said, "Spider is afraid that I will go back, is there no one to play with you?"

The spider lowered its head and hummed.

Lu Zhanting smiled, turned back and continued to play with those sticks and branches. After a while, he erected all the bundled roots.

Zhu'er looked at the large tree roots curiously, and then she saw Lu Zhanting take off his clothes, cover them on the tree boards, fasten his belt, and weave a grass ring to hang on the top.

Zhu'er looked at the puppet in amazement for a while, and immediately clapped her hands and applauded. She ran back to her room, brought her clothes to cover the tree branches, tied a scarf, and put on a garland.

The two ran around among the puppets like children, chasing each other, Huimin wanted to scold, but somehow her heart softened, and she just hummed softly.

Zhu'er took out the silk handkerchief and tied Lu Zhanting's eyes, said with a smile, "Brother Lu, if you catch me among these people, I'll sing for you."

Lu Zhanting greeted with a smile, he groped while listening to the spider's silver bell-like laughter.The two were turning around among the puppets, very happy. Lu Zhanting's hand suddenly touched a body. The tentacle was the faint temperature of the human body. He laughed and pulled off the handkerchief covering his eyes, saying, "I can catch you now." Come on!"

What he looked up met Yiyu's cold eyes, and he took a step back involuntarily.

A blush flashed across Yiyu's handsome face, although his face was expressionless, there was a gloomy look in his eyes.Lu Zhanting knew the young emperor's expression too well, he knew why Yiyu got angry, and he didn't know how to toss himself later.

He hurriedly knelt down and said: "Slave pays respects to the emperor, long live my emperor!" He looked down at Yiyu's pair of exquisitely crafted coiled dragon boots slowly approaching him, and subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Yiyu actually bent down, stretched out his slender finger like white jade to help him up, and he said calmly: "Send Huimin Huang Taifei back to the house!"

Lu Zhanting felt his cold fingers gently slide over his cheeks, his muscles tightened for a while, and his whole back was stiff. He heard Yiyu's light command, "Pull the curtain!" Lu Zhanting's entire expression changed, The eunuch behind him put on a plate of yellow cloth.

"Emperor, Your Majesty, we can go back to the house." Lu Zhanting smiled and said, "It's too windy here, it's easy to catch cold."

Yiyu smiled, but his eyes were cold, he leaned close to Lu Zhanting's ear and said softly: "Great talent Lu, have you found confidence from an ugly monster so quickly? Why don't you let me test it?" Test her."

He turned his head and pointed to the spider who was still kneeling on the ground, and said, "Let her pull the curtain."

Little Fuzi shouted at the spider: "Get up, the emperor ordered you to draw the curtain."

Lu Zhanting looked at the unfurled golden curtains surrounding him and Yiyu, and he saw Zhu'er looking at him with timid eyes full of tears, as if asking himself for help.

Yiyu hugged Lu Zhanting tightly with his right hand, bent his head between his neck and took a deep breath, his teeth gnawed on the skin of Lu Zhanting's neck.Lu Zhanting looked at Zhu'er's terrified eyes, and suddenly pushed Yiyu away forcefully.

Yiyu was caught off guard and staggered. If the eunuch behind him hadn't rushed forward to help him, he would have almost fallen on his back.

Xiao Fuzi pointed at Lu Zhanting and said sharply: "You slave is so courageous, come here, take him down for me!

But Yiyu waved his hand, he stood up straight, looked at Lu Zhanting, who was pale but stared at him with his lips tightly pressed, and said softly: "You finally showed your true colors, and I like you like this."

He clenched his fists and said coldly, "None of you should interfere."

He approached Lu Zhanting, looked at him, and suddenly punched Lu Zhanting in the abdomen. Lu Zhanting bent over in pain. Just as Yiyu was about to approach him, Lu Zhanting suddenly stood up and punched Yiyu's jaw, attracting attention The guards and eunuchs exclaimed.

Lu Zhanting panted and looked at Yiyu, Yiyu stretched out his hand to stop the guards from rushing over, and gently wiped the blood from his mouth.

Yiyu moved forward unhurriedly, while Lu Zhanting retreated involuntarily. He knew that these princes were all good at martial arts, especially this Yiyu who was good at riding and shooting since childhood.He was extremely lazy since he was a child, and nine out of ten martial arts classes he escaped to have fun outside.

He retreated again and again, and he had already retreated to the edge of the curtain. The eunuch behind him pushed him forward, and he couldn't help but rushed towards Yiyu. Yiyu grabbed his shoulder and hit him hard with his knee. His abdomen, he was beaten by Yiyu within a few strokes and fell to the ground.

Enduring the pain, he slowly got up from the ground, but before he could stand still, he was thrown to the ground by Yiyu's sweeping leg, and then kicked hard.

After several repetitions, Lu Zhanting's eyes were completely white, and he couldn't see Yiyu's appearance clearly. He could only hear the crying of the spider. He wanted to get up again, but he couldn't even move a finger.He felt that Yiyu was pulling his clothes, but he was powerless to stop him.

Yiyu stripped off his clothes, he only wanted to possess him as soon as possible, no matter how embarrassed and reluctant Lu Zhanting was.

There is the sound of physical collision in his ears, but the pleasure of Yiyu's body can't cover the anger in his heart, he always feels unwilling, he feels that he has got what he wants, but he seems to be lost.

He slammed into Lu Zhanting hard, almost screaming in his heart: What do I want from him?

That unwillingness existed a long time ago, perhaps since he first saw Lu Zhanting.

It was a winter afternoon, the inner academy had just finished school, and Yiyu stood on the back of a child, looking down on these attendants, the sons of the ministers, he wanted to choose one of them to be his war horse, all the children gathered around All around him, looking at him with longing eyes.

Yiyu looked at them condescendingly, not only was he more noble than them, he was also far smarter than them, so it was true that they were only worthy of being his mounts.

But when his eyes jumped over these heads, he found Lu Zhanting. He was sorting his books in a hurry. Yiyu still clearly remembers that Lu Zhanting was wearing a blue jacket vest and a black hat. small melon cap.

Lu Zhanting clamped the book under his elbow, jumped off the chair and walked towards the door. He seemed to be in a hurry to leave, and he didn't even glance at the excitement here.

Yiyu suddenly felt uncomfortable, and he shouted, "Stop!"

But Lu Zhanting didn't respond, he continued to run and walk towards the door, until someone shouted: "Lu Xiaoer, the prince told you to stop!"

Only then did Lu Zhanting turn his head in a daze, and Yiyu found that the boy had a small face, and his facial features were not extremely handsome, but the flying eyebrows, the looming mole between the left eyebrows, the light-colored thin lips, and the pointed chin, the whole The combination makes people feel very comfortable after seeing it.

Yiyu was carried in front of Lu Zhanting by the temporary war horse below, and he said coldly, "Aren't you going to participate in our game?"

Lu Zhanting stretched out a finger, scratched his forehead, and said, "I promised to see Yiren's calligraphy and painting."

A trace of unhappiness suddenly flashed in Yiyu's heart, and he said, "Are you familiar with Yiren?"

Lu Zhanting tilted his head and seemed to think seriously before replying, "I don't know him well!"

After hearing this, Yiyu suddenly felt happy again, he smiled and said: "Then you stay and play with me, I will choose you as a war horse today!" The children beside him lamented.

Who knew that Lu Zhanting smiled, it was a kind of smile that Yiyu often saw in the future, with a bit of laziness and indifference, he said: "I don't know you well, do I?" He turned around and walked towards the door again .

The academy was extremely quiet, and when Yiyu saw him walk to the door, he couldn't help shouting: "Lu Xiaoer!"

Lu Zhanting turned his head and smiled, and said, "My name is Lu Zhanting!" Then, he quickly ran out of the courtyard gate and disappeared from Yiyu's sight.

Yiyu suddenly felt a little tired, and Lu Zhanting under him collapsed on the ground like a puddle of mud. No matter how big the impact was, the bluestone brick surface behind him rubbed against the impact, and all the stinging pain could not make his body The body has a little reaction.

He seemed to be dead, Yiyu couldn't hear his breathing except for his own panting, he suddenly felt a kind of fear.

Yiyu couldn't help stretching out his fingers, trembling to test his breath, when the hot air sprayed on his fingertips, he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

He stood up a little bored, asked the eunuch to tidy up his clothes, and then said: "Help Lu Zhanting into the room, and call an imperial doctor to take a look later." He paused, suddenly changed his tone, and said sternly : "Don't let him die so easily."

When Lu Zhanting woke up a little, he found himself lying back in the room, and the spider was sobbing softly beside him.He wanted to laugh, but found that no matter what slight movement he made, his whole body would hurt badly.

"Don't cry, don't cry, I'm not dead yet!"

"Brother Lu, why did the emperor treat you like this? Will you be bullied like this in the future?" Thinking of Lu Zhanting's life like this in the future, Spider sobbed even harder.

"No, Zhu'er." Lu Zhanting smiled wryly, "He's played enough, he can probably let me fend for myself."

While talking, Wang Shouren came in.Lu Zhanting turned his head away, Zhu'er wiped away his tears, and made room to feel Wang Shouren's pulse.

Wang Shouren took the pulse expressionlessly, lifted the quilt to look at Lu Zhanting's injury, and then said to Zhuer: "Master Lu's trauma is more serious, and some wound medicine needs to be applied immediately, you can follow me to the pharmacy to get it later." Come and use it for Master Lu."

Lu Zhanting originally thought that he would have something to say, but who knew that Wang Shouren behaved like an ordinary imperial physician from the beginning to the end, he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, he seemed a little disappointed and also a little sad.

As a result, when the spider came back to apply the medicine and talked to him, he also acted out of his mind.

"Brother Lu, if one day you go out, will you soon forget the spider?" Seeing that Lu Zhanting didn't say a word, she hurriedly said, "I don't want Brother Lu to think about me every day, once a year... …No, just think about it once every ten or eight years.”

Lu Zhanting sighed, and said, "I won't miss you once in ten or eight years. We will meet every day in these ten or eight years, so there is no need to miss you."

Spider fell silent, she quickly changed the subject and said, "Brother Lu, let me sing for you!"

She didn't wait for Lu Zhanting to agree, she began to hum in a low voice. Zhu'er's voice was clear and soft, and she sang very pleasantly.

"Peach leaf after peach leaf, and peach tree with peach root. Compassion and pity are two pleasures, and I am courteous alone. Peach leaf after peach leaf, crossing the river does not wait for oars. The storm is impermanent, and there is no life to cross the south of the Yangtze River. Peach leaf after peach leaf, crossing the river does not need oars. But there is nowhere to cross the river. Bitter, I come to welcome you.”

When Lu Zhanting heard her singing "Peach leaves come after peach leaves, you don't need boats to cross the river. But the crossing is not difficult, I will come to greet you", sighed softly, and slowly fell asleep.Between half-dream and half-awake, Spider's silver bell-like voice was still in my ears.

Sleeping in the middle of the night, when someone suddenly pushed the door open, Lu Zhanting tried to open his eyes, and saw Huimin leaning against the door panting, she said coldly: "Get up."

Lu Zhanting got up in surprise, Hui Min whispered: "Hurry up, come and help me!"

Lu Zhanting got out of bed quickly, and supported Huimin as promised. She grabbed his hand so hard that her nails almost got embedded in Lu Zhanting's arm.

The two almost stumbled into the backyard, Huimin said coldly: "Wait a minute, no matter what you see, don't make a sound, understand?"

Even though Lu Zhanting was full of doubts, he could only nod in agreement under Hui Min's cold gaze.

Hui Min stretched out his hand to open the door, and with a quick glance, Lu Zhanting cried out, but as soon as he uttered that sound, Hui Min, who had been on guard for a long time, tightly covered his mouth.

But Lu Zhanting's glasses were still looking directly into the room. In the middle of the small room, there was a spider hanging, the spider who just sang softly to him.

"Don't make a sound!" Hui Min whispered in his ear, seeing Lu Zhanting nodding, she put her hand down.

"How did this happen? How did this happen?" Lu Zhanting asked repeatedly with tears in his eyes. He wanted to rush in, but was stopped by Hui Min.

She said coldly: "You don't need to look, she is already dead. I didn't call you until she died."

Lu Zhanting opened his mouth in surprise, and looked at Huimin with disbelief.

Huimin then said indifferently: "You don't have to look at me like that, that's not what I mean." She sighed slightly, the coldness in her eyes seemed to melt a little, she sighed: "Do you want to escape? Spider I thought of a good idea for you."

She looked back and saw that Lu Zhanting was still there, she didn't seem to listen to what she was saying at all, and slapped Lu Zhanting with a wave of her hand.She used so much force that it seemed to touch her own wound, Huimin covered her stomach and said with a sullen face, "If you don't want Zhu'er to die for you in vain, you can listen to me clearly.

"There is not much time, and the eunuchs from the mortuary will arrive soon. According to the usual practice, they will send Zhu'er's body out of the inner palace overnight. Zhu'er is a native of Jinling, and her body will be sent to the west of the city Yizhuang, waiting for her family to retrieve the body. That place is already outside the palace.

"According to Emperor Shengwu's grace, Spider will get a thin-skinned coffin later. As for me, I have a little time alone to say goodbye to her. You can take this opportunity to escape from the palace."

"Why did she do this? Why?" Lu Zhanting said in tears, "I've always been so unbearable, and I don't deserve her to treat me like this."

Hui Min sneered, and said, "This question, you can ask yourself when you go to hell."

She said, took out a kit, and said: "I never like to owe others, you saved my life, after you escaped from the palace, go to Yangzhou Mansion to find our Ye family, here is a letter from me , my brother will definitely take you in after seeing it.”

Lu Zhanting was hidden under Zhu'er's bed by Hui Min. He heard people coming and going in and out of the house, Zhu'er was put down and placed on the bed.Lu Zhanting looked at the beam of the bed, he said sorry over and over again.

Someone carried Spider's body out of the house, put it in the yard, placed it in a thin-skinned coffin on a corpse truck, and closed the coffin lid.

At this time, Lu Zhanting heard Hui Min's voice and said, "My master hasn't said goodbye yet. Now that Emperor Shengwu is dead, don't those who go to the mortuary have to follow the rules of our ancestors?"

Lu Zhanting held his breath and listened to what the head eunuch said, and after a while, he heard Hui Min softly say, "Come out!"

Lu Zhanting immediately crawled out from under the bed, Hui Min said in a low voice, "Hold out the spider's body, and you hide in it! Hurry up, go out in the middle of the night, there will be no guards to check."

Lu Zhanting gently pushed open the coffin lid and carried Zhu'er out. Looking at Zhu'er's gray and lifeless face, he couldn't help but feel sore, and gently put her under the bed.

Huimin also seemed to be very nervous. Her hands were tightly grasping a crutch, and her knuckles were faintly white. When Lu Zhanting turned his head, she seemed to be slightly relieved. She patted Lu Zhanting's back lightly and said softly. Said: "Son, run!"

Lu Zhanting lay down in the coffin, and the moment he dragged the lid on the coffin, he looked at the face that was usually full of sneering, and said thank you softly.

Huimin hesitated for a moment, but still stretched out her hand to gently stroke Lu Zhanting's face, saying: "My child, you must be careful in everything in the future." Then she closed the coffin lid together with Lu Zhanting.

Soon, Lu Zhanting felt the car moving. He counted the roads and curves. Even though Shaohua Palace was less than half a stick away from the nearest Xizhimen, he still felt that it was the most unbearable waiting in his life. .

"Old Zhang, someone died again?" Lu Zhanting knew from the accent that it was Yang Zhilong, the captain of Xizhimen City Guard.

"It's the little maid of Shaohua Palace."

"Oh, the people in Shaohua Palace are still alive?" The guards guarding the city burst into laughter.

"Would you like to see it?"

When Lu Zhanting heard this, he couldn't help clenching his fists lightly.

"No, the face of the young maid of Shaohua Palace is disgusting, let alone dead."

The old man answered repeatedly, and then the car started to move again, Lu Zhanting breathed a sigh of relief.The car kept moving forward like this, and Lu Zhanting was in a daze in the coffin, almost falling asleep.

In the mist, for a moment he seemed to see the spider in front, he chased and chased, and pulled the woman's back, it was indeed Yiyu's sneering face.

Lu Zhanting immediately woke up from fright, and broke out in a cold sweat. He was just glad that he was dreaming, when he heard a strange sound, and when he listened carefully, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

It was the sound of hooves, the sound of many horses stepping out.

Lu Zhanting almost didn't have to think about it carefully, and he could guess that those horses were following him.

He gritted his teeth and lifted the coffin lid violently, the coffin lid turned over and just hit Lao Zhang's head.

Lu Zhanting jumped out of the coffin, and apologized to the old Zhang who was knocked unconscious on the ground. He looked around, and this place already belonged to the western suburbs of Jinling.After carefully identifying the direction, Lu Zhanting ran into the depths of the jungle.

He ran for about a stick of incense, and found that not only did he not get rid of the hoofbeats, but the hoofbeats got closer and closer to him.

Panting for breath, he seemed to hear barking in the wind, and he suddenly realized that the people sent by Yiyu had brought dogs.

Lu Zhanting looked around and saw a few plants of Yanbaiqian. He was overjoyed and pulled out those grasses. Enduring the extremely smelly smell of grasses, he stuffed them all into his mouth and chewed them up. Then he took off his coat and used The grass paste smeared all over his body.

He was about to throw his coat into the water, but was suddenly snatched by a masked man in black.Lu Zhanting was taken aback, but the man in black motioned him to keep quiet, and the man in black disappeared without a trace after a few quick leaps.

At this time, Lu Zhanting wanted to run again, but it was too late, so he had to hide in the grass beside the road.

When he saw Yiyu, who was dressed in black and looked even more handsome under the torch, his heart couldn't stop beating violently.

Lu Zhanting seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat, the more he heard his own heartbeat, the more nervous he became, and the faster his heartbeat.The gray hounds also seemed to have lost their way, barking in mid-air.

Yiyu reined in the horse's head, looked around, and said calmly, "Scatter around and search for me, he must be nearby!" He took a deep breath, and said coldly, "I want to live!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden movement in the bushes over there, several hounds immediately chased away like crazy, and Yi Yu immediately turned his horse's head and shouted: "Hurry up!"

After they all disappeared without a trace, Lu Zhanting fell to the ground as if collapsed, panting weakly.After a while, he got up vigorously and disappeared into the vast night.
