Jun You Ji Fou - Chapter 78
In the next seven days, there was no trace of Su Shiyu. It wasn’t until the exclusion period expired that Chu Mingyun finally saw him in Chaotang.
Su Shiyu stood on the right, as always, with a convergent and gentle look, Chu Mingyun looked at it, but always felt that he was thinner again, with a sharp line that outlined the outline of the mandible, and closed the pen shallowly to the distinct neckline.
Li Yanzhen stopped Su Shiyu to ask questions when he was heading down, and Chu Mingyun walked out of the palace door alone, his steps slightly paused, and then leaned silently against the walls of the vermilion palace.
Chang’an City was getting colder, the clouds were low, the pine was thin and dense, and there was light snow again in the cold wind, and Yingying shattered on his shoulders, and a trace of dampness was fainted. Chu Mingyun was faintly unconscious, his eyes seemed to fall. Out of reach.
I don’t know how long I waited before Chu Mingyun heard the familiar footsteps, before turning his head, a soft voice suddenly sounded in the silence:
“Brother Su!”
The girl who appeared from nowhere flew up to meet, standing on tiptoe and holding up a crab-green umbrella, blocking the wind and snow, and covering the people under the umbrella, only to see a white coat like snow.
Chu Ming Yunwei frowned, and immediately recognized her as the luthier in the city of Xiangyang.
Lan Yi turned over inadvertently there, just seeing him, could not help but froze for a moment. Su Shiyu saw her weird expression, took the umbrella in her hand and raised it, and then looked over. The white velvet snow covered the vague footprint, and there was a trace of water on the wall of the vermilion palace, but there was no one. “What’s wrong?”
Lan Yi turned back and shook his head hesitantly, “Nothing.”
Su Shiyu didn’t ask much, and instead said: “How come you suddenly entered Beijing?”
“Master,” Lan Yi lowered his voice, “something went wrong.”
Su Shiyu glanced around and made a silent gesture. He didn’t dare to wait in front of the palace for a moment before he went into the study room when he returned to the study room while blowing the snow on his robe.
Lan Yi opened the door and asked: “Son, did your majesty really die from poisoning not long ago?”
Su Shiyu acted and looked at her, “Where did you learn?”
“So it’s true?” Lan Yi looked a little dignified. “I stayed in Luoyang a few days ago and happened to be invited to play the piano for a private feast. There were only two or three guests besides me. They drank more Well, I forgot to avoid me. I only heard from their conversation that I was headed by the king of the river, but it was also about the poisoning of His Majesty.”
“I immediately blocked the news. There are very few people in the DPRK and China who know it. How can they know as far away as the kingdom is concerned.” Su Shiyu pondered. “Is he also involved in the King Xiling, or do the princes want to join forces? ”
“I don’t seem to have something to do,” Lan Yi shook his head. “Yuan Min’s words are all worried, and the meaning in my obedient is to get secret information that the court suspects that the poisoning of your majesty is caused by the princes. Send troops to fight and clean them up completely. Son, you know, since the prince’s order, the kingdom of the princes has been torn apart, and the son-in-law and the son-in-law have struggled against each other. Fear of killing them all this time.”
Su Shiyu frowned slightly, “The court did not mean to punish the princes. The news they learned, I was afraid that someone would deliberately spread it.”
“Also, son, not only the Hejian King got the news, Yuan Min mentioned that he came to the limelight this time, but also came for several princes who entrusted the Hejian King. The pressure is extremely great. Yan went back.”
“Isn’t it possible?” Su Shiyu’s eyes narrowed slightly, “What’s the matter?”
“I don’t know this.” Lan Yidao said, “Yuan Min seems to be a little afraid, and the few sentences mentioned are carefully avoided.”
Su Shiyu thought for a long while and sighed, “I’ll pay more attention to it, I’ll work hard for you.”
Lan Yi smiled, “The son is polite…”
Su Bai suddenly pushed in the door, “Son, Shang Shuyue…” He saw Lan Yi at a glance, his voice turned sharply, his eyes clearly surprised, but he pressed the curved lips: “Hey, how do you come Changan?”
Lan Yi glanced at him, and then looked away and hummed softly, “I didn’t come to you anyway.”
“Who is rare? You look for me,” Su Bai said in disgust. “Not that I said, are you fat again?”
Lan Yi twisted his head, brushing his eyes wide, “Blind you–”
“The two of you are noisy again.” Su Shiyu looked helpless and looked at Su Bai. “What’s wrong?”
Su Bai quickly took back his eyes, “Master Yue hosted a banquet in the restaurant to invite your son to come.”
“Is there anything to say?” Su Shiyu asked.
“No, I just hope you have to go by.”
The city was covered with frost, the blue brick deva lined with white snow, like a roll of freehand ink and wash, the hustle and bustle between heaven and earth seemed to be swallowed by the wind, and it was particularly sparse at the city gate, and a restaurant on the street was silent to the extreme. There is no guest in the lobby, and the store also retreats without a trace. The black shadow guards are guarded on both sides of the stairs. Two people sit opposite each other in the only elegant room upstairs.
The middle-aged man with a gentle face put the wooden box on the table and pushed it over, “Please.”
Su Bai’s fingers loosened the celadon jug. Chu Mingyun casually reached out and lifted the wooden lid. The box full of red gold shimmered, and he closed it again with no expression. “What does Master Yuan mean?”
Xiang Guoyuan Min, the king of the river, smiled, “We have a little heart and talk about sincerity.”
Chu Ming Yunzhong held the hip flask again, Gu Zitian filled the glass, “I can’t understand, can’t I just say something?”
“Master Chu is really refreshing.” Yuan Min paused, and said carefully: “Under the order of my lord, and hope that in times of crisis, Master Chu can help.”
Chu Mingyun looked at him with a smile, “Do you want to hurt me?”
Yuan Min’s expression stiffened, “…admiral said so, it seems that the news we got is true.” He sighed a long time, “since both the adults and I know the truth, then I will say it straight, the loyalty of the lord It can be learned from the sun and the moon. It is really distressing to be implicated in the crime of the villain.”
“What does it have to do with me?”
“If no one knows today, the power of the soldiers is under your control, and the words of anyone can make us feel more at ease than Master Chu.” Yuan Min said.
“You want me to protect you, but what good does this do to me?” Chu Mingyun rubbed his fingers over the cup. “Furthermore, do you say that loyalty is loyalty, without proof and without evidence, how can I believe you?” ?”
Yuan Minzhi looked at him, “What do Master Chu want?”
Chu Mingyun laughed softly and slowly raised his eyes, “Do I want you to give up the military power in Fengyi?
Yuan Min’s sitting position was tense, his hands clasped together, and he did not answer for a moment.
Drinking all the wine and adding another one, Chu Mingyun said slowly: “Isn’t this the best way to prove your loyalty to the court? Anyway, the military power has also been dispersed by the heirs, and the poor one is clutching in his hand, what? I can’t do it. What’s the point of having a peace of mind?”
Yuan Min fought fiercely in his heart, trying to speak: “Master Chu…”
“I only need this,” Chu Mingyun interrupted, and put his index finger to his lips, squinting slightly drunkenly, “I don’t like bargaining, I can’t bear it, just go, I can be when you haven’t been.”
Yuan Min sinks his heart violently and asks, “What does Master Chu want to guarantee himself?”
The meaning behind the words was already a compromise. Chu Mingyun smiled and said: “Simple, the military power is in my hands, you are related to me. Isn’t it enough to reassure Yuan Yuan?”
Yuan Min’s expression changed a lot, and finally got up and saluted him. “Since this is the case, Lord Lao Chu is bothered. I will stay shortly to avoid being hit by someone, and I will make it known to the Lord when I go back.”
Chu Mingyun smiled sideways, “No.”
Yuan Min left and left, and the footsteps disappeared at the end of the stairs. Chu Mingyun once again took a jug of wine and lifted the wind curtain. The cold wind rushed in, wrapped in fine snow, and the people were a little clearer. “Come out.”
There was a noise behind him, thinking that Fang Cai Yuan Min had been facing the curtain for so long, but he finally found no compartment behind him, and Zhao Kejing walked out of it, “Lord.”
“In a few days, I will find a reason to transfer you out of Chang’an. You come to take over the military power of the Hejian King, but don’t worry too much. At that time, the news was not only given to the Hejian King. The other princes are watching and not using it. It will be the same for a long time, it’s all yours.”
“Yes,” Zhao Kejing said, “but I am afraid that King Xiling will not hand over military power, right?”
Chu Mingyun drank a glass and drank, before he smiled and said, “Isn’t it for him? At that time, all the other princes have laid down their military power, wouldn’t it seem strange to have him alone?”
“If he gave it, what else would he fight? But if he didn’t give it, I would be able to cut him down in the name of the court and the alliance of princes. It’s hard to choose, it doesn’t matter, I give him time to think about it.”
Zhao Kejing nodded. Chu Mingyun had already drunk a lot of wine in these few words. He hesitated and said, “Lord, you…”
“Go back if you are fine.” Chu Mingyun truncated his words.
Zhao Kejing swallowed back and respectfully retreated.
In the pavilion, he was left alone with his companion, Chu Mingyun let his head fall, and his sight fell aimlessly on the snow-covered long street outside the building. Suddenly a black spot approached in a piece of bright white, and stopped in front of the restaurant opposite him. Someone got out of the curtain and was like Chilan Yushu.
Chu Mingyun’s hand holding the cup could not help tightening, and could not move his eyes, staring at him as he stepped into the restaurant, and after a short while, the figure appeared again in the opposite elegant room. The person who talked to him was covered by the rolled curtain, and he didn’t know what to say. He suddenly looked up and froze.
Chu Mingyun didn’t look away, facing Su Shiyu across Fanxue Long Street.
Suddenly he felt that he had accumulated a lot of repressed feelings in the past few days. By clearing the alcohol, he finally burned in this eye, and silently burned so that his lungs were burned into ashes, and he could not discern any emotions, leaving only the empty. pain.
Then he saw Su Shiyu approaching a pretty young girl behind him, the curtain fell suddenly, and she cut off her eyes.
Su Shiyu returned to her eyes and turned her eyes to Yue Yuxuan, who put down the curtain on the side. “Sorry, what did Master Yue say?”
Yue Yuxuan raised his hand and gestured to the other two people in the room, laughing: “Trusted, Su, don’t blame me.”
Su Shiyu turned to see the girl and some cramped middle-aged people beside her, sighed, and said to the middle-aged man: “Sincerely, Lord Xiang is so favored, but I have already shown you that I did not intend to start a family, or do not have to delay me. , Please choose another son-in-law.”
“What are you talking about, Mr. Su,” Mr. Xiang became more embarrassed and took her daughter to sit next to Su Shiyu. “Just want to invite you for a light meal, just have a meal!”
The girl nodded shyly at him, she looked very clever.
Su Shiyu couldn’t say anything better, but couldn’t help but looked at the thick curtain again, his heart was absent, and his thoughts were full of Chu Mingyun’s expression of silence, as well as… the scattered tables full of wine.
As the wine and vegetables started to line up, Master Xiang was looking at his daughter, and Su Shiyu stood up without warning: “I’m really sorry, I suddenly remembered that there was something important. I said goodbye, and I will return to ask the two adults to make a guilt.”
“Hey wait, Master Su…” Master Xiang stood up in shock, Su Shiyu nodded at him slightly, and then quickly walked away, he stayed for a moment, and looked at Yue Yuxuan anxiously, “Your Excellency, you, you Didn’t you say there was a chance? Why did Master Su just leave like this, why didn’t you help me say anything…”
Yue Yuxuan lifted the curtain outwards and saw Su Shiyu walking across the street in the snow. He turned back and smiled at Master Xiang without answering.
The building was quiet, and the shadow guards guarding the sides of the stairs were motionless, allowing Su Shiyu to step into the attic indifferently.
Su Shiyu couldn’t help but paused when the door closed. Chu Mingyun held his head with one hand and looked at him in a sound. He slowly raised the corner of his lips, his eyes gleamed, and he looked drunk and not drunk, “What do you do if you stand so far away, afraid I won’t succeed if I eat?” Su Shiyu reached out his hand, spread his palms upwards, revealing a plain white wrist, his voice was low and his voice was solemn: “Come here -”
Su Shiyu withdrew his gaze, walked to the other side of the table and put down the curtain, the cold wind and snow were covered, and there was finally a little warmth in the room. He paused, and then took away the wine in front of Chu Mingyun. His fingertips touched the ice cold on the body of the pot. He realized that the wine was cold. Su Shiyu frowned slightly, and finally he sighed helplessly: “Winter cold, Cold wine hurts.”
Chu Mingyun looked at his empty hand and slowly gathered it, as if holding something void. He lowered his hand and smiled, and the tail ticked slightly, “What is your relationship with me now, and still have to teach me?”
“There is no lesson, even if you don’t like to listen, but still…”
“I’m in trouble.” Chu Mingyun interrupted him. “I can’t see it or not, can’t you see it, Su Shiyu?”
“…” Su Shiyu couldn’t answer for a while.
Chu Mingyun played with the empty wine cup and lowered his eyes to stop looking at him. “You just came over there just to say this?”
Su Shiyu sighed: “Yes.”
“What’s this, care for my colleagues?” Chu Mingyun sneered, his voice sighed, and then he whispered again: “Do you have anything to explain to me?”
Su Shiyu was puzzled, “Explain what?”
Chu Ming Yun Yang threw the glass out of his hand, hit the ground with a loud noise, and stabbed him in the ear. He slowly raised his eyes and fixedly stared at Su Shiyu, “Why?”
He stood up abruptly, but shook his body instability. Su Shiyu quickly supported him. Chu Mingyun clenched Su Shiyu’s wrist with his backhand. He continued: “Why not kill me?”
Su Shiyu suddenly stunned, watching Chu Mingyun stubbornly staring at himself, frowning, “Why not kill me?”
Suffering from soreness in my heart, I was almost breathless. He couldn’t make a cold look that he didn’t care about, no control over Yuan Min, no calmness, and he could only stand in front of him with his helmet undressed. : “If you don’t have me in your heart, why didn’t you kill me? Why should you hide it for me?”
“Why?” Chu Mingyun looked directly at Su Shiyu, his eyes deep, as if he wanted to look into the bottom of his eyes and see clearly. “You are not bad at all. If you don’t want to be forced, I will hold you and kiss you.” There are so many opportunities at that time, why don’t you kill me, if you don’t have me in your heart, why don’t you just kill me as a chaotic thief?” “Or does it mean that as long as Rong Se is still able to embrace you, you are all comers? I don’t care who I am?”
“…Calm down.” Su Shiyu slowed his voice.
“Can you look at my face?” Chu Mingyun grabbed Su Shiyu’s hand, held it, and walked down his own skirt. “Do I want to hug you again?”
Su Shiyu hurriedly closed his hand, but Chu Mingyun was squeezed to death. His robe was ripped loose, his shirt was open and fell on Su Shiyu’s eyes, a white chest, the skin under his palm was hot, and his heart was beating violently under it.
Chu Mingyun took another step forward and put it on his forehead, saying, “Do you want it?”
Su Shiyu closed his eyes and took a deep breath, “Master Chu…”
“Su Shiyu!” Chu Mingyun interrupted him with hate, loosened the grip on his hand and pinched his chin, “Are you really bloodless, tearless, and heartless…”
Su Shiyu raised his hand to open his hand and covered his eyes again, the other hand tightened his collar and turned to press him against the wall behind him and kissed him.
Chu Mingyun froze suddenly, could not move at all, could not see anything, could not hear the sound of wind and snow outside, all consciousness left him, leaving only a deepening touch on his lips.
Su Shiyu used real force to suppress him, and his fingers were stuck under his collarbone. He even read a trace of anger from it, but Su Shiyu’s kiss was diametrically opposite, which was the ultimate tenderness and patience. The thin twitch on the lips twisted, the tangles between the tongues, a little licking, like a pity to appease, swallowing his almost collapsed entanglement emotions together with the clear alcohol in his mouth.
It’s not just him who can’t bear the outburst. Who can think that Dr. Yu Shi would be so disregarding the consequences, not knowing how to end, only knowing the relationship between each other, destined to be entangled. Su Shiyu also closed her eyes, almost emptying herself, and stopped thinking about anything, only focusing on kissing this familiar person.
As if the flowing clouds gathered and the flowers dried up into gray, Su Shiyu let go of his breathing, his eyes silent. Chu Mingyun didn’t know how long he was silent before finally regaining his voice, and asked him very softly, “… Are you pitying me?”
“Calm down?” Su Shiyu said.
Chu Mingyun pulled down his hand to cover his eyes, and already had red eyes, but still looked at him fixedly.
Su Shiyu froze for a moment, somewhat confused, “You…”
“Shi Yu,” Chu Mingyun raised his hand and rubbed the corners of his eyes. “You just hit my head, it hurts.”
“……Sorry.”
“Oh, tease you.” Chu Mingyun smiled, and after a while asked again: “Did I scare you just now?”
Su Shiyu let go and stepped back, looking at him and saying, “You are drunk.”
“…Yes.” Chu Mingyun leaned against the wall behind him, raised his hand and pressed his forehead, “I’m drunk.”
“How much did you drink?” Su Shiyu asked warmly.
Chu Mingyun thought for a long while in confusion, “Not sure.”
Su Shiyu looked at the table case where a bunch of empty hip flasks were scattered, and suddenly realized what was happening, “You came to such a remote restaurant and emptied other people. What are you going to do, only you are here?”
But at the moment drunk and rushed up, Chu Mingyun didn’t listen to his words in a faint and dumb way, Gu Zi pressed his forehead with a slap and frowned, “Headache.”
“…” Su Shiyu finally smiled helplessly. “Drinking cold wine and blowing wine should deserve your headache.” Having said that, he moved closer and rubbed his hands on Chu Mingyun’s temple, “Don’t move.”
Xu was really drunk, Chu Mingyun quietly lowered his eyebrows, and suddenly took Su Shiyu’s hand for a long time, and called him lightly and dumbly, “Shi Yu, I…” The eyes closed completely and fell straight on Su Shiyu.
Su Shiyu hugged him in time and looked down, he clearly slept deeply, but still frowned. Su Shiyu looked at Chu Ming quietly for a long time, and finally sighed silently, bending down to hug him horizontally.
When the Yingwei, who was guarding downstairs, saw these two men, he finally couldn’t help but reveal a complicated look. Su Shiyu slowly put Chu Mingyun on the cushion in the car, suddenly remembered something before leaving, staring at him with a faint smile, and said to the shadow guards on both sides: “If he wakes up and forgets what happened, there is no need Tell him.”
The two shadow guards glanced at each other before responding: “Yes.”
