Troubled Times Survival Raiders

During the Cold Food Festival, one of the most important things is to carry wine to the grave, so as to reflect the respect of the time.

According to the custom in their hometown in the past, the Shen family took wicker to plug in the door to drive away evil spirits, and made "zituiyan" and thick soup.

Shen Yu also received a new fire from the palace. There is a saying in "Zhou Li Xia Guan": "The government decree of fire in the palm, change the national fire in four seasons, so as to save the disease." Every Qingming Festival in the Forbidden City will take the fire of elm and willow to give to the ministers.The gift of new fire should be limited to assistant ministers, relatives, generals, privy ministers, ministers of various ministries, etc., but Shen Yu received this kindness for no reason.

He has stopped worrying and worrying, just thinking about how he can repay this affection.

Shen He chooses a good day to take his family out on a trip. They want to go back to their hometown to pay respects to the grave and go outing at the same time.

Shen Lin's husband Ding Yi's family is out of town, and he can't go back to his hometown to visit the tomb. He also made an appointment with his friends to go mountaineering and sacrifice, so he gave Shen Lin a vacation.Shen Lin finally took a breath, and clung to her brother all the way, looking out the window.When he left the village, he was too young to remember anything, so everything he saw felt fresh.

"Lin Lang, sit down and don't fall down." Shen Yu pulled her younger brother to her side.His tone was reproachful, but when he looked at the eyebrows and eyes similar to his own, his eyes were always full of warmth.

Watching Shen Lin grow up day by day, it was like seeing another self being fulfilled, without any regrets.

It was only a year or two since they left the village, and because the ancestral grave was in their hometown, only Shen Mu was buried here.However, Shen He bought all the surrounding fields and kept them as the Shen family's ancestral tombs and sacrificial fields, and asked people who lived in the farm to look after them.

Because of this, they were not very surprised to see the lush green and the neatly cleaned stone steps, but Shen He nodded and said: "It's hard for them, it's not because the master is not negligent. "

They first went to the Zhuangzi to rest their feet, then prepared the three animal wine ceremony, and then went to the cemetery to sacrifice.

As soon as Shen Yu entered the cemetery, Shen Yu could see that something was wrong. It seemed that everything had been repaired here. The sacred path was paved with blue and white stone bricks, a stele pavilion was built, and the tomb watch was re-erected.But the tomb is smooth, filled with red soil evenly, without any weeds.

First of all, the words Master Shen's taboo Mu came into view.The tombstone has also been washed, the handwriting is clear, pure and thick, deep and profound.

Shen He dubiously looked at the guard on the village, and was about to ask what was going on, but the man didn't dare to take credit for it, and immediately replied: "Master, this is all ordered by the government. The master of the government said that our old lady is The righteous people enshrined by the late emperor must not be neglected, and the tomb must be rebuilt according to the rules. We have been watching from the sidelines, and the work is done quickly and beautifully."

"It must be you who won the first prize, and the adults in this county thought of repairing our tomb." Shen He sighed.He has seen more about the warmth and coldness of human relationships, and he has become more and more disappointed in his heart, let alone joyful.

Shen Yu thought more about it. He made a special trip back to his hometown to pay homage after he was in middle school, and there was no such scene at that time.What's more, he and his father guarded the tomb here before, and not many people knew about it. Even if they were attached, it should be the county magistrate where his household registration is located to curry favor.

After much deliberation, there might be Wu Junyi's shadow among them.

But, would Wu Junyi really care about such details?Shen Yu was not sure, but just thought about it erratically.

With his hands on the cold and delicate blue and white stone, Shen He had already lit the incense, and after three prostrations, he offered the incense and the offerings in the cemetery.Then he personally wiped the clean tombstone again, making it shiny.

Shen Yu knelt in front of the grave, lit the paper money, and silently told her grandfather that she had become an official and that Lin Lang had also started studying.As for Qi Lang... Qi Lang is in the Guozijian, and he will try his best to take care of him if he can.Yueniang also gave birth to a son, who mingled with the king of Chu Qinse.

He didn't know whether his grandfather, who once hated the King of Chu, would change his mind now that the King of Chu was getting along with His Majesty's monarch and ministers, or whether he was angry because Yueniang married into the palace.His legs kneeling on the ground trembled slightly, and his eyes were a little sore.

Shen Lin didn't have a deep impression of her grandfather, she was still childish.Seeing Shen Yu kneeling on the ground and unable to get up, he took the initiative to run forward and pulled his brother hard. Shen Yu smiled and led him to stand up.

After the sacrifice, the whole family walked up to Zhuangzi together. Shen He casually asked the villagers about last year's harvest, but the villager said excitedly, "Thanks to Your Majesty, last year the county master sent someone to deliver the seeds. Send out new farm tools and tell everyone to farm according to the pattern. At the beginning, some people were gossips, but later I saw that it saves a lot of effort to use them. Last year's harvest was bumper, and now everyone has to pray for His Majesty and pray for blessings!"

Zhuang people look loyal.Shen He frowned slightly without saying a word, but Shen Yu felt a burst of joy from the bottom of his heart.

Not only to prove that his hard work has paid off, which he has known for a long time, but also for the subtle loyalty in these words.This is what Wu Junyi deserved.

Shen Yu lived in the farm for a few days, drinking and composing poems with his father, or visiting farmers, or chasing and fighting with his younger brother, fighting with herbs, which had a lot of wild fun.

However, the holidays are limited, and they have to go home.The one who is most reluctant to part is Shen Lin.He remembered that the homework assigned by his husband had not been done yet, and he felt unspeakable fear of going home.

It's a pity that the elder brother who loves him the most is not good at talking about this matter, let alone his always strict father.Mother is the most kind, but unfortunately she only believes in Shen Yu.Shen Lin could only hold her mouth in displeasure, sitting in the carriage and watching getting closer and closer to home.

Not long after Shen Yu returned home, she heard a major event: Wu Junyi fell ill.

It turned out that in order to improve the status of a martial artist, Wu Junyi deliberately went to teach martial arts in person. He liked Zhou Kuang and made a special trip to write an essay about it.

Chen Hongpeng has put a lot of thought into it, and he has rectified a lot of martial arts in an orderly manner.Although he is not the chief official in name, everyone knows that His Majesty values ​​him.

There are about a hundred students here. Apart from those sent by their parents on their own initiative, there are also many abandoned children picked up by guards on patrol and who meet the requirements.These children are now learning from the most basic things like zama step and boxing to keep fit.

Wu Junyi walked around a few times, seeing that the children were doing well, he was happy, so he agreed to teach them how to ride horses and shoot arrows.His own horse has a strong temper, and he asked the instructor to bring a horse over for fear of frightening the child.

Unexpectedly, the instructor usually only teaches boxing techniques and doesn't know how to do it, so he casually brought a horse.This horse has a habit of wrapping its tail around the rein and pressing it down hard when running.When Wu Junyi got on the horse and galloped, the mount suddenly had a habit attack. Wu Junyi pulled the rein hard, but the horse was suddenly frightened and threw him off.

At that time, the scene was extremely chaotic, Wu Xue went up and down, kneeling down, and the ministers rushed to the front, crying and crying, calling the imperial doctor.

Although Wu Junyi was stunned for a moment, he soon regained consciousness due to the stinging pain.While he was conscious, he asked someone to ask if there was anything wrong with the horse.

The person in charge of raising the horses trembled and reported the truth. Wu Junyi frowned and asked, "In that case, it will hurt the students sooner or later. Why do you keep it?"

"The horses in the capital are limited, so we have to keep up with the military supplies first. This horse is the instructor's mount, and I know its habits well, so I can barely manage it. I deserve death for my crimes, and I beg your majesty to punish me!"

Wu Junyi was so painful that his eyes went dark from time to time, but after hearing these words, he still felt a pain in his heart: After all, it was only because Daqi didn't give birth to horses.He asked someone to release the instructor and the horse feeder, but the horse could not be kept, and was slaughtered to make the students full.After a soft phone was sent back to the palace, he ordered someone to quietly call the imperial physician to come for treatment, and only said that he had caught a cold and was slightly ill.

He not only wanted to stabilize the government and the opposition and prevent the situation from changing, but also to keep Chen Hongpeng and his martial arts.

Even if he has the heart to forgive, if this causes the root cause of his illness, or... if there is an eventuality, he will lose his head in this martial arts, and all his efforts in changing customs will be in vain.

Shen Yu didn't know the inside story, but only heard from his colleagues that the emperor was slightly ill.But thinking of Wu Junyi's preferential treatment all the time, he felt very sorry.On the day when he returned to the palace, he still couldn't bear it, and took advantage of his free time to walk to Qianqing Palace.

"Who is coming?" There were heavy defenses in front of Qianqing Palace, but the little eunuch relaxed instantly after seeing the person coming. "Master Shen, what can you do?"

"I want to see His Majesty, can I pass it on for you?" Shen Yu asked.

The little eunuch hesitated for a moment, then nodded immediately.He still remembered what Eunuch Li said, that the person in the court who cannot offend now is Mr. Shen. "Master Shen, wait a moment, and let the servant enter the internal communication."

Shen Yu only waited for a moment before seeing Li Qi come out. "Why is Lord Shen here?"

Li Qi's eyes were red, bags under his eyes were black, his face was pale, and he looked like he was suffering, as if it wasn't the emperor who was sick, but him.Shen Yu looked at it and suddenly became suspicious.

"I heard that His Majesty is slightly ill, and I want to come to visit you." He restrained his thoughts and replied seriously.

Unexpectedly, Li Qi said: "It's good that Mr. Shen has this kind of heart. Your Majesty doesn't want to see anyone now. Mr. Shen, please go back."

This was the first time that Shen Yu was shut down by Wu Junyi.

When something goes wrong, there must be a demon.Shen Yu became more and more firm in her judgment. "Eunuch Li, I won't disturb Your Majesty, I just want to take a look. Tell the truth, how is Your Majesty's condition?"

"Lord Shen, please rest assured, Your Majesty is fine." Li Qi repeated what Wu Junyi explained, but his heart was tense, and what he said was also dry.

"Eunuch Li, you are serving in front of your Majesty. Naturally, what should you say and what should not be said. Let me ask you again, how is your majesty's condition?" Shen Yu asked again with a heavier tone.

This time, Li Qi gritted his teeth and said, "Master Shen, please come in."

Shen Yu stepped into the palace without hesitation.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, Li Qi's tears kept falling like broken beads. He wiped his tears with a handkerchief and said sadly, "Master Shen, when your Majesty went to learn martial arts, he fell off the horse!"
