Chapter II. 221
Shen Gui walked out of the porter and went straight to Tie Li'er's room. Long before he went out in the morning, he saw Yan Qinghong and Tie Li'er in the same room. At this time, if you want to find Yan Qinghong, the fastest way is to find Tie Li'er first.
These two lovers, although they have a deep affection for each other, have not yet officially married because of the special identities of both parties; But fortunately, they themselves don't care about it. Today, these two get along like a loving old husband and wife.
Shen Gui, who was full of worries, wanted to kick open the closed door, but his feet were half raised, as if he thought of something, and finally he could fall. After hesitating for a while, he knocked lightly on the door.
Tie Li'er opened the door in confusion, and when she saw Shen Gui with an eager face, she immediately put on a somewhat ambiguous expression, and said with a smile:
"What's wrong with my brother? Did you hit a nail at Le'an in the morning and feel confused? Now you're coming to my sister, do you want me to help you get an idea? However, you are in the wrong place and in the wrong person. There's nothing I can do about this, sister. Don't blame me for not helping, these two eldest ladies, one is my future sister-in-law, and the other is your 'little sister'......"
"No, it's not ......" Shen Gui saw that Tie Li'er had entered the 'gossip mode', and hurriedly waved his hand to deny: "I'm here to find Yan Er." ”
This time, Tie Li'er was ashamed of a big red face! Up and down in this Shen Mansion, who doesn't know about him and Yan Qinghong? But everyone also understands the difficulties of the two of them, and at most they will discuss it privately on weekdays, and no one will talk about it in person at all. So at this time, Tie Lian'er thought about it, this Shen Gui should have secretly hated himself and Yan Qinghong, and saw the excitement between him and Li Le'an in the morning; Now they are deceiving each other with words, and they are clearly here to 'avenge blood hatred'!
"Why are you here with him? I don't know! ”
With the sound of the door, Shen Gui, who was confused and inexplicable, touched a disgraced face at Tie Li'er.
In the end, Shen Gui still found Yan Qinghong, who was visiting his sister, in the library building.
"I said Yan Er, you don't even know a few big characters, why are you coming to my library?"
Shen Gui looked at Yan Qinghong, who was sitting on the first floor of the library building, with some confusion, and then looked down at the title of the book in his hand: "Persona of the Western Regions". "What's the matter? Planning to go to the West Xinjiang to relax? ”
Of course, Shen Gui said that Yan Qinghong didn't know a few words, and it was just a joke between friends. After all, even if he Yan Qinghong can't support the wall in the mud, he is still the second prince who has been literate in Sanbei Academy since he was a child.
When Yan Qinghong heard Shen Gui's voice, he immediately closed the book in his hand and put it aside, muttering in his mouth:
"Who is going to go to Western Xinjiang? I just wanted to find a book with pictures to read...... The books in your library are all densely packed with small print, and when you read them, you feel like you want to sleep......"
"What about Princess Fengyang? Is there anyone else in this building besides your brother and sister? ”
"Shuqing is reading on the third floor, and there is no one else in this building. I said, are you going to say you can't do anything? Still cautious in your own home? With Liu Banxian, a Heavenly Spirit Veiner, to help you watch the door, is there anything else you don't worry about? ”
When Shen Gui heard this, he also felt a little nervous in his heart. So he turned around, sat next to Yan Qinghong, and said straight to the point:
"What do you think about this now?"
Yan Qinghong was a little dazed by his brainless words. Then he thought about it, and the swinger didn't know what to think about, his cheeks were crimson, and he said hesitantly:
"Uncle Tiejia is serving the old prince in Nankang, and his father is about to mourn ......"
"Didn't ask you two about the! I'm asking about Concubine Lan's mother! ”
As soon as Yan Qinghong heard about his mother's parents, he immediately stood up, stretched out an index finger and pointed to Shen Gui's lips; Then he sneakily followed the staircase of the library building and peeked up a few times. Noticing nothing out of the ordinary, he returned to his seat, lowered his voice, and said:
"Let's go out and talk, Shuqing is still ......"
"That's it! How long are you going to hide it from me? ”
Yan Shuqing's voice came from top to bottom, and it reached the ears of the two of them very clearly. Yan Qinghong slapped his thigh, pointed at Shen Hui and shook it back and forth a few times, and the meaning of blame was self-evident.
When Shen Guiyi saw Yan Shuqing appear, he also felt a little embarrassed. After all, he didn't know what kind of 'accident' happened to this Fengyang princess and Li Le'an, but at this time, he had no time to take care of those children's affections......
"Brother, since Shuqing knew that you didn't care about your life and death and rushed into the fire of Beilan Palace to save Shuqing's life, I have a new understanding of you, brother; But now that the mother concubine has been dead for many days, there is still no result in this matter, how long are you going to delay? ”
Yan Qinghong didn't know where his sister learned about these things. But at this time, in the face of her questioning, no matter what I said, I felt that something was wrong. After being silent for a long time, Yan Qinghong pointed at Shen Gui and said:
"We have investigated this matter before, and found that the real culprit of the murder and arson is Liu Zhi, the young supervisor of the Imperial Horse Prison; And a few days ago, Lu Xiangyin, the supervisor of the Imperial Horse Prison, died in the hands of Shen Gui...... If you don't believe you asked him yourself, this matter is considered ...... here."
Shen Gui, who received the 'ball' from Yan Qinghong, can only bite the bullet and nod vigorously to Yan Shuqing, who is covered with frost. Unexpectedly, Yan Shuqing just sneered in the face of these remarks:
"Hmph...... Zai Li is just a eunuch, if he doesn't have the support of a master behind him, how can he make such a big move? Elder brother! Don't you really know? Or are you pretending to be confused in front of Shuqing? The real murderer who killed our mother and concubine must be Yan Tian's brute......"
"Fengyang...... That's your eldest brother......"
"Phew! I don't have such a rebellious mother-killing brother! Yan Qinghong, I originally thought that your debauchery and self-abandonment were just a layer of skin that you had to put on in order to protect yourself under the strength of Yan Tian and your father; Look at how cowardly and incompetent you look now! Is it that this outer skin has been worn for too long and can no longer be taken off? Or are you just that gentleman who doesn't care about anything, just a waste who is greedy for life and afraid of death! If this is the case, then even if I, Yan Shuqing, am blind, I will still have some unrealistic expectations for you, the second brother of waste! ”
After Princess Fengyang angrily reprimanded Yan Qinghong, she immediately took the door away; On the other hand, Yan Qinghong, who was still sitting on the chair, did have a wry smile on his face.
Shen Gui turned around and looked at Yan Shuqing's white dress, which disappeared from the door of the library building, and looked back at Yan Qinghong, who was still shaking his head, and asked with an awe-inspiring expression:
"Actually, I've always wanted to ask you, what do you think about this? Today, as an outsider, I can only do this. The rest is your Yan family's family affairs, even if I really want to help, I really don't have any position......"
When Yan Qinghong heard Shen Gui's question, he was also quite serious. He waved his hand, looked at the direction Yan Shuqing left, and said in a calm tone:
Don't look at Shuqing's righteous words, in fact, she is more panicked than anyone else. Although my father didn't like me very much, the second son who didn't attend, he has always loved Shuqing very much. Now that her father has died, she has really become a child without a father and a mother. So, no matter what she says, no matter what she thinks of me, I can actually understand it. And I, as an older brother, don't want her to be involved in these things. I just want her to continue to be his princess of Youbei, and it is best to find another wishful husband and live the rest of her life in peace and happiness......"
Shen Gui clearly felt his love for his sister as a swinger. However, although Shen Gui can understand this way of caring for his sister, he doesn't agree with it in his heart.
At this time, Yan Qinghong turned his head, looked directly at Shen Gui with his eyes, and then picked up the topic he had been interrupted by himself and continued:
"Of course I know about the fire in Beilan Palace, and the main messenger behind it is the crown prince. But now he has the upper hand. As you say, all I have in my possession are a few ill-intentioned notes written by unknown people, and I can't count them at all. But in the future, if by chance, we can really work together to bring down the crown prince, then I don't want to sit on this vacant position of Emperor Youbei. Who made the men of the Yan family's generation only two brothers? Moreover, my brother also told you today, I, Yan Qinghong, have never thought of becoming an emperor since I was a child. This is not out of self-humility, but out of a real mentality. Although I came from a royal family, I didn't know what I wanted to do and what I should do; But I Yan Qinghong don't want to do something, I still know it very well! ”
Shen Gui looked at Yan Qinghong, who looked extremely determined, and felt both surprised and empathetic in his heart. He returned to the original life and lived a very ordinary life, studying, working, and living step by step without a trace of waves; But in the blink of an eye, I was living in an environment that I used to think was 'extremely ridiculous'. The helplessness and confusion in his own heart, presumably Yan Qinghong at this time is also empathetic.
"I, too, was dragged by Li Xuanyu's great shaman. Since I came here, every relative and elder has told me more than once that I want to do what I really want to do and what I really like to do. It can be said that to this day, I still suffer from their kindness. But I also understand very well that some people are born destined to do something. Now, the time has not yet come for me to return, so I can't understand it yet; And Yan Qinghong, your time has come! As long as you want to continue to live, you are destined to embark on this path! ”
The original Shen Gui was an extremely staunch atheist; But since he came to this Huayu continent and experienced the unexplained 'miracles' with his own 'inherent concepts', he began to believe in that kind of mysterious and mysterious doctrine.
And the thing that made him change his concept and begin to gradually believe in it still has a name in Shen Gui's heart, called fate.
