Early the next morning, Drunken Osmanthus Shu Changyu took sick leave and did not go to court.
Before dawn, Li got up early in the morning and went to the ancestral hall.She knew that Shu Changyu was not in good health, and she hadn't slept all night.When I got up the next day, I looked quite haggard.
Seeing her like this, the maid who dressed her up felt that something had happened, but since the third young master came back last night, no one knew what happened.
Didn't the third young master come back safely?Ma'am, what else is there to be sad about?
The servant girl didn't dare to say anything, and tidied things up for her quickly.
When Mrs. Li came, it was still dark.As soon as she entered the ancestral hall, she saw Shu Changyu kneeling in the middle.
The ancestral hall was empty, only Shu Changyu was kneeling in the middle.A row of candle flames danced under the row of dark tablets, stretching the shadow of Shu Zhangyu long behind him.
He knelt there with his back straight.He has been in poor health since he was a child. Although he is tall, his shoulders are narrow.Kneeling here so tall and straight, looking at it from a distance, it is thin and bony.
Li Shi immediately burst into tears.
This child of hers...why is his life so miserable?
In the past, she would be the first to tell General Shu who was far away in the north of everything that happened at home.But for today's matter, she sat in front of the desk until midnight, and she didn't write a single word except for a sheet of tears.
If General Shu knew about this matter, Li believed that he would definitely come back with a gun and kill the son with his own hands.
Mrs. Li couldn't figure out why his son, who was so well-behaved and never broke the rules, would do such a rebellious thing?
Although Shu Changyu was raised by her side since childhood, she worried less than Shu Changche who was far away at the border.He has always been self-restraining and polite, and he never does what he shouldn't do, and he knows all the truths that need her to explain.
Why now, I don't know what it means to be in heat, and to be polite?
It's not good who he likes, he likes the princess, the daughters of other courtiers, or even a commoner woman, a brothel prostitute...
all good!Why is it a man, and a prince who might inherit the throne in the future!
Although their sparse family has made great achievements, the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers is the most clear.They are the swords of the court, they can be held in the hands of the king, but how can they...how can they lie on the king's pillow.
Mrs. Li couldn't figure it out. She, the most worry-free child, would do that thing that would break the sky.
She raised her hand to wipe away her tears and walked in.
Shu Changyu didn't move when he heard footsteps.Just staring at the plaque on the ancestral hall with the inscription "Full Family Loyalty".
"Have you figured it out?"
Standing beside him, Mrs. Li asked in a calm and cold voice.
Shu Changyu didn't look up, but lowered his eyes.As soon as he opened his mouth, his voice stagnated in his throat, and suddenly stopped, and he couldn't make a sound.
After a while, he mechanically cleared his throat, and said in a hoarse voice, "Go back to mother, my son already thought it through yesterday."
"Are you going to continue pestering the Second Highness?" Li Shi raised her voice when she heard this.
Shu Zhang Yu paused, then hummed in a low voice.
"Shu Changyu... Shu Changyu!" Li's voice trembled, but he didn't call him any more affectionately. "Wei Niang really didn't expect... how can you become so selfish!"
Shu Chang Yu did not make a sound.
"You just know that your father and I can't do anything to you, don't you?" Her voice trembled. "What about the Second Highness? How the Emperor will treat him, have you ever thought about it? The Second Highness is just a child, who doesn't know anything yet, and you are the only one who obeys everything, so you just led him on the wrong path because of your own selfishness. bring?"
"He is such a half-grown child, does he know what love is at this moment? Shu Changyu, he is ignorant, but you should be! It doesn't matter if you harm yourself, it doesn't matter if you harm your family and reputation, why bother to harm the Second Highness?" !"
Shu Changyu listened mechanically, but still didn't say a word.
He knelt all night in the cold wind, and his lips were covered with a layer of frost.He had been running around all day yesterday, dizzy and dizzy, and knelt like this all night.At this moment, his ears were ringing, his eyes were dizzy, and he couldn't hear what Li Shi was talking about.
No matter what you say, just don't compromise with her.
Shu Changyu knelt there straight, eyes lowered, without saying a word.
He didn't expect himself to be so determined.For the first half of his life, he only obeyed the admonitions of his family. The education he received was all about self-denial, courtesy, loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.
But now, the other end is Jing Mu.
Originally, his concentration was different from that of ordinary people, but he suppressed himself for a long time, but he still couldn't stop it.
Even if he can't stop himself, then no one can stop him.
In this kind of matter, he is really surprisingly resigned to death.
This is the first time Li Shi has seen him act like this.
"Since you don't want to repent, just kneel here." Li raised his hand to wipe away the tear that couldn't help falling from his eyes, and said coldly.
"Yes." Shu Changyu vaguely heard her words this time, and said.
Li's eyes were red, he turned around and left.
She still felt that Shu Changyu's actions were extremely wrong, but she didn't know what to do, and she dared not tell the pillars of the family.
After Li Shi went out, Shu Changyu slowly raised his head.
He fixed his eyes, and in his blurred vision, the plaque in front of him that read "Full Family Loyalty" had turned into a green face with fangs, and it was facing him with its bloody mouth open.
Shu Changyu never thought that he would be an enemy of the people of the world, and the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty. One day, he would be an enemy of the entire Shu family like this.
-
As soon as Mrs. Li went out, a servant girl reported that Prince Dun had come to the General's Mansion.
Li's face turned pale, and he almost stopped standing.
The servant girl had sharp eyes and quick hands, and quickly reached out to support her.
"Dun...His Royal Highness Prince Dun, do you have anything to say?" She asked.
The servant girl quickly replied: "His Royal Highness said that he heard that the third son was ill, so he came here to visit."
Li Shi pursed her lips and ordered: "Let him wait in the front hall for a while, I will be there in a while."
Hearing the words, the servant girl hesitated and said, "But... madam, the third young master?"
Li frowned: "You don't have to worry about it."
Then she turned and walked toward the hall.
When she reached the front hall, Jing Mu was already waiting there.On one side, Gu Lanrong, who didn't know anything yet, was asking the maid to pour him tea.
Gu Lanrong was still there with a smile and said: "Yesterday, I didn't see Jingchen when he came back late. It must have been a long journey and he couldn't bear it, so he just rested at home for two days. There is nothing serious."
Seeing Mrs. Li coming in, Jing Mu got up and saluted her: "I've seen Mrs. Shu."
Li Shi's expression was a bit uncharacteristic.She looked down at the bowed Jing Mu, and said with unpredictable emotions: "My lord saluted the old man, but he really broke the old man."
After all, she raised her head and told Gu Lanrong, "Go down if you have nothing to do."
Gu Lanrong saw that her expression was not right, so she didn't stay for long, and hurriedly smiled and went forward to salute the two of them, and then backed away.
"Why did the prince come here today?" Li Shi sat down slowly, took a sip from the tea cup on the table, and asked after looking at him.
Jing Mu was taken aback.
He originally started to miss Shu Changyu when he went back yesterday, tossing and turning, unable to sleep by himself.Finally at dawn, I was able to see him in the hall, but I heard that he was ill.
Jing Mu didn't suspect him, thought it was because of the bumps on the road, and said that he didn't delay the time, and made the carriage go fast, so he fell ill again.The more anxious Jing Mu was, the more eager he was to see him, so he simply came to the General's Mansion.
He originally thought that he would be reprimanded by Shu Changyu for coming uninvited, but he didn't expect that Li Shi's expression changed drastically and he looked at him coldly.
Could something have happened?
He was suspicious in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Huishu, the student heard that Shaofu was sick today. It should be because he was tired on the way back from the tour. The student has nothing to do today, so he came to visit One or two, it's also very reassuring."
While he was talking, Li Shi looked him up and down.
Li Shi originally thought that he was just a brat, and his son would like him only if he was possessed by a demon.Unexpectedly, he hadn't looked at it carefully on weekdays, but now it seems that this Jing Mu is first-class in terms of appearance and demeanor.
He was born taller than his peers, and now roughly speaking, he should be taller than Shu Zhangyu.His facial features are not like that of Emperor Qianning, but they look like the resolute and sharp-faced Emperor Xian.Especially those eyebrows, when there is no smile, the momentum is extremely overwhelming.
"It's not a serious problem." Li Shi came back to his senses and replied lightly. "The respected minister is still recuperating from his illness, and he can't see the wind. Please forgive me, please go back first."
Jing Mu was stunned again.
Last time Shu Changyu caught a cold and became very ill, but Mrs. Li didn't stop him yet, why now—?
He simply asked: "Madam Shu, what happened?"
Li raised her eyes to look at him, and met his gaze unexpectedly.
His eyes are really magical.Looking straight at herself like this, those eyes were as deep as a pool, which made her feel a little empty for no reason, and she walked away after only a moment.
Jing Mu could tell at a glance.
"Mrs. Shu?" he asked.
"It's nothing." Li Shi lowered his eyes, and simply raised his eyes to look directly at him, and said. "My lord, I just ask you to hold your hands high and keep a distance from your respected ministers in the future, then it will be considered that your lord has done me a great favor."
Jing Mu was taken aback for a moment: "Mrs. Shu..."
Mrs. Li interrupted him, and continued: "The matter between you two is known to the old man. The prince is a noble man, so there is nothing to be afraid of, but my family can't stand this trouble, and the respected minister is innocent all his life. I can't bear the reputation of 'Ning Xing', which has been infamous for thousands of years. The old man has already told the sage, and he will let the respected ministers go south to rule the river in a few days. I hope that after a few years of separation, the prince can also figure out your identities and relationships. By then, you It's not too late for the two of you to meet again."
Hearing this, Jing Mu didn't care about other things, he stepped forward two steps, and even his face turned cold with nervousness: "Mrs. Shu, the weather along the Yellow River in the south is bad. Young Fu's body..."
"Even if the child of my Shu family dies, he cannot be a person who harms the court, let alone a plaything of the Tian family." Li Shi stood up with a cold face. "see a visitor out."
Just then, a young man ran in hastily.
"It's not good, old lady!!" He ran to Li Shi and knelt down, trembling. "Just now, I went to clean the ancestral hall and saw the third young master... the third young master passed out inside!"
The author has something to say: I called my mother today and talked about writing a novel.
Empress Dowager: You should read the report of the [-]th National Congress of the Communist Party of China more, learn more from the instructions of the General Secretary, and write according to the ideas of the party and the country.
I:? ? ?
Mom, the party and the country did not instruct boys how to fall in love with boys_(:_」∠)_
Before dawn, Li got up early in the morning and went to the ancestral hall.She knew that Shu Changyu was not in good health, and she hadn't slept all night.When I got up the next day, I looked quite haggard.
Seeing her like this, the maid who dressed her up felt that something had happened, but since the third young master came back last night, no one knew what happened.
Didn't the third young master come back safely?Ma'am, what else is there to be sad about?
The servant girl didn't dare to say anything, and tidied things up for her quickly.
When Mrs. Li came, it was still dark.As soon as she entered the ancestral hall, she saw Shu Changyu kneeling in the middle.
