Shen Langgui

Cheng Yin always thought that Master Shen could be described as decathlon, he could not be 'capable', as long as Master Shen studied a little, he would become 'capable'.

Except singing.

What other people sing brings the fragrance of birds and flowers, but for Master Shen, it is probably called destruction.However, Shen Yue is very self-aware. In the past, even if he was pulling songs in the army, he would just watch the excitement and not open his voice, but on the way back after this big victory:

"...the wind blows the white clouds, oh~ where have you been?"

"When I miss you, I look up and smile, oh~ you know that?"

Shen Yue's old troops were notoriously wolves and tigers, and when the enemy's black clouds overwhelmed the city, they were able to remain calm, but Shen Yue's howl made him turn his back on his back and lose his life, and the generals crawled away separately.However, with a knife on the prefix of the word "loyalty", Cheng Yin resisted the urge to foam at the mouth and fell unconscious, resigned to his fate and kept pace with Shen Yue and continued to be abused by him.

After thousands of miles, Shen Yue howled all the way, and the army and horses behind him kept a respectful distance, following symbolically one mile away.It's fine to yell on the road, but when I'm about to enter Beijing, Master Shen's embarrassment will be thrown at the foot of the imperial city...

Cheng Yin finally couldn't help it: "Master, your chest injury is just right, let's take a rest before singing, otherwise Mr. Qiu will be so distressed when he sees you later!"

Having been stabbed to the point in one fell swoop, Shen Yue obediently kept silent, smiled slightly, and smiled like a fat-headed wine bag, and replied: "Okay."

This battle was not easy, with many casualties, and Shen Yue's old army was devastated.So, after Shen Yue regained consciousness, he ordered Sun Bijiang and Zhang Chuang's soldiers to help the coffin and return to the Central Plains first, and he and the seriously injured soldiers recuperated for a few days before leaving.

After marching for nearly twenty days, they finally arrived at Jiangning, at the foot of the imperial city.

What is unusual is that the gate of the imperial palace, which has always been open, is crowded with people at the moment, but it seems to be well-ordered.Shen Yue saw clearly the yellow-robed man in the middle of the line, and immediately jumped on the horse and knelt down: "My minister Shen Yue kowtowed to the emperor, long live the emperor."

It is an unprecedented and supreme honor for the emperor to welcome all the officials in person.

"Shen Aiqing get flat quickly!" Emperor Cheng said, he stepped forward to help Shen Yue up, and asked with concern, "How is Shen Aiqing's injury?"

Shen Yue cupped his fists: "Thanks to the emperor's mercy, the wound has healed."

"Okay, okay, then I can rest assured..." Emperor Cheng looked strange, as if he didn't know whether he should say the next words or not.

Shen Yue glanced at the people in the front row from the corner of his eye, Zi Chong, Shen Chao, Jiang Xingjun, etc. were all there, even Pan Fuwang was present, but there was no Xun He.Now that the emperor was right in front of him, Shen Yue couldn't express anything, so he suppressed his doubts, and followed Emperor Cheng into the deep palace hall amidst the majestic and solemn music playing.

Then there was the usual early court, apart from the usual memorials to officials, it was promotion and awards.There were not many generals who could be reused in Emperor Cheng's reign. Taking advantage of the outstanding military exploits led by Shen Yue, Emperor Cheng granted several official positions, and even Cheng Yin was awarded the title of second-class bodyguard.Only to Shen Yue, Emperor Cheng kept it secret.

And Shen Yue was always absent-minded.Many questions linger in his mind: Zi Chong's eager sympathy, Shen Chao's eyes dodging guilt, Jiang Xingjun's and Pan Fuwang's hesitation, and most importantly, Xun He's absence from beginning to end...

This time, Shen Yue escaped from death and led his troops to return triumphantly. Even if Xun He was crazy busy, he wouldn't pick this critical moment to go on a business trip.Shen Yue's heart was in a state of confusion, and the numbness twisted into a rope, which tightened Shen Yue's heart, which was recovering from a serious illness.

Shen Yue was in a daze, as if he hadn't heard anything from the people around him, until he retired from the imperial court, but Emperor Cheng didn't let him go, but hand-picked Shen Yue to go to the imperial study, accompanied by Zichong and Shen Chao.

Just before stepping into the threshold of the imperial study, the two dolls, one big and one small, stuck to Shen Yue:

"uncle!"

"uncle!"

Only then did Shen Yue realize: "Oh! First prince and second prince, uncle hasn't seen you for a while. Why are you here?" Shen Yue raised his head, and saw the answer, and saw Shen Yaoqing getting up from his seat, looking at Shen Yue Getting closer.

"See the empress for a lowly position! Your empress is a thousand years old..."

Before Shen Yue could finish his sentence, he was lifted up by love. Women are no better than men, they can make their emotions disappear. The queen's eyes were flushed, and she held Shen Yue's wrist, choking: "Brother, you are back."

Emperor Cheng led Shen Yue in, and ordered: "Ayue must have been tired after traveling thousands of miles. Envy Tao, give me a seat." The word "Ayue" means that Emperor Cheng no longer regards himself as a king, but treats each other as relatives and friends. What we are talking about is not national affairs, but family affairs.After everyone was seated, Emperor Cheng said again, "Ah Yue, all the people in this room are your close relatives and trustworthy people. When the news of your injury came back, everyone was worried. So, when you come back this time, you must take care of yourself." Take good care of your body and let your relatives and friends rest assured."

The implication of Emperor Cheng is that he must take care of himself in the future, but why did he suddenly remind him?Shen Yue couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart anymore, so he knelt down and kowtowed his head: "Be bold in a humble position, please tell the emperor clearly, I... did something happen to Xun He?"

Emperor Cheng was silent.

Zichong forced himself to be calm, knelt down beside Shen Yue, and supported him with his arms: "My condolences to A Yue, Xun He died of illness half a month ago..."

Shen Yue felt like being struck by five thunders.In any case, I couldn't accept it. The person who had sex with me on the eve of the expedition, the person who told me to "eat well" before parting, the person who could support himself through the gate of hell just by missing him, was gone.

"A Chao, take A Yue back, let's rest for the next few days, and stay with him well." Emperor Cheng couldn't bear it, and stepped forward to warn him.

"No!..." Shen Yue fell to the ground and groped to get up, "I want to go home, I want to see Ah Li." Shen Chao originally helped Shen Yue, but he pushed him away, so he had to follow In the back, I saw my elder brother stumbled all the way and staggered out of the palace gate.But before he walked down the steps, Shen Yue's eyes darkened and he collapsed on the ground.

Emperor Cheng asked Xiantao to prepare the chariot, Shen Chao knelt down to thank him and declined, and walked out of the palace with his brother on his back.Walking to the gate of Taiping Gate, Shen Yue faintly woke up, and when his consciousness returned, Shen Yue angrily jumped off Shen Chao's back, untied the reins connected to the carriage, got on the horse's back, and rushed out like a sharp arrow off the string.

Cheng Yin didn't have time to ask more questions, so he rode his horse and galloped to keep up.

Inside and outside of Xianmiandu, it is decorated with pale white.Only the Bianhua flowers along the way up the mountain, contrary to the withered and bleak ones when Shen Yue left, bloomed into a bloody and dazzling red.

Shen Yue rushed up the mountainside.

The mountains are quiet.The carp in the tank sensed movement and floated up to purr and bubble; the branches and leaves of the nameless mountain flower were still verdant, and even a plain white fragrant flower the size of a palm bloomed.

Everything is the same as before.

Only that person has become a cold tablet on the altar table, behind the three or five fruit bowls.

Shen Yue's knees were weak and he fell to the ground, but his eyes were still fixed on the tablet, and he called out the name on the wooden board in disbelief:

"Qiu Xunhe!!"

When he fell down, a package in Shen Yue's arms shook out, and every time Shen Yue crawled forward, the contents inside spilled out.When Cheng Yin came up to the mountain, what he saw was not only Shen Yue crawling around, but also pine nuts scattered all over the ground.

Cheng Yinyou remembered that day, when Shen Yue heard the soldiers talk about how delicious the pine nuts in Daxingan Mountains in his hometown were, he excitedly ran to ask the little soldiers for them.Then Shen Yue peeled off one, tasted it and praised how delicious it was, but he never saw him eat another one on the way, instead he carried it in his chest like a treasure, and brought it back to Jiangning thousands of miles away.

Love is more than knowledge, and drunk is more than wine.

Flowers bloom and wither, but they are empty.
