This discussion in Xuanhui Hall lasted for the whole morning.
Today is New Year's Eve. Emperor Tongxu remembered that Xie Tingzhou had just arrived in the capital, so Xie Tingzhou declined politely, saying that he had just entered the capital yesterday and there were still many things in the palace that had not been taken care of.
After walking out of the Xuanhui Hall, Xi Feng immediately followed him. Seeing Xie Tingzhou's expression, he didn't say anything. He waited until he got on the carriage and said:
"Liu Cheng is targeting His Highness like this and is eager to throw the blame on you. I'm afraid he's going to jump over the wall."
Xie Tingzhou held his head, "Do you remember when I kicked his son off his horse that year in Chunsou?"
Xifeng thought about it seriously, "It seems like something happened. His old man broke his leg and lay on the cave for several months. Does your Highness mean that he is seeking revenge?"
Xie Tingzhou shook his head, "He did it so obviously that it made it difficult for people to see whether he was avenging his personal revenge or using his personal hatred to cover up his true purpose."
Xi Feng hates Shengjing. Everyone here seems to be wearing a layer of skin, making it difficult to see whether what is hidden under the skin is a human or a ghost.
…
Shen Yu was not on duty today, so she walked around the yard before going out.
She didn't climb over the wall, but walked straight out of the east gate.
Everyone in the palace knew that the prince had arranged for him to stay at Lu Mingxuan, where he used to entertain guests. They were not sure who he was, so they did not dare to stop him.
She walked along the road to the vicinity of Shen's Mansion. The door of Shen's Mansion was closed tightly. There was not even a red lantern hanging at the door, and it was very deserted.
It was not allowed to set up stalls near the official residence. Shen Yu walked a few streets and went around Baoshan Street to find a teahouse. After sitting down, she ordered a pot of tea and some snacks.
She had been to this teahouse before, and it was always packed every time. She didn't know why it was so deserted today.
The tea house is a gathering place for gossip. I originally wanted to come and get some news, but it seems that I can't.
"Little second brother."
The waiter had nothing to do, leaning against the counter and yawning. Hearing this, he walked over and asked, "What are your orders, sir?"
Shen Yu said: "Why is the store so deserted today?"
The waiter said nonchalantly: "It's like this every New Year's Eve. Who's still running out during the New Year's Eve?"
I lost track of time while running around, and it turns out that today is New Year’s Eve.
In previous years, I spent time with my father and brother, but now...
Shen Yu calmed down and said with a smile: "That's a pity. I just came to Jingzhong, and I still want to hear the interesting things in Jingzhong. It seems that I can't do it."
"You are looking for me," the waiter became more energetic. "If you want to talk about the interesting things about Shengjing, no one knows it better than me. I am here all day long, and nothing can escape my ears."
"The second brother sat down and said." Shen Yu poured him a cup of tea, "What do you call him?"
Although the clothes of the young man in front of me are not of the highest quality, they are not something ordinary people can afford to wear. The waiter in the waiter is a lower class person. It is rare to receive such preferential treatment, so he sat down happily.
"Just call me Xiaoshan. What do you want to hear, sir?"
Shen Yu threw a peanut into her mouth and said, "Whatever, pick the ones that are more recent."
The waiter thought for a while, "Speaking of it, a funny thing happened last month. The young master of the Liu family in the cabinet was kicked off by the Beilin Crown Prince many years ago. Oh, the Beilin Crown Prince is what the world now calls Mr. Lan Yue. , Master, have you heard of it?”
Shen Yu smiled and nodded.
Not only have I heard of him, I also slept with him.
"Last month, Liu Yu heard that Prince Beilin was going to Beijing, and he told him at Qionghua Tower that he would give him some love. But guess what?" The waiter took a sip of tea and continued: "In the end, he drank wine and left the building that night. I fell down and broke my leg. By coincidence, it was the same one I broke before.”
Shen Yu smiled and said, "It's really unlucky."
"Isn't that true," the waiter said, "Oh and also, a few months earlier, Minister Jiang went to the General's Mansion to propose marriage, but was rejected. Do you think the young lady from General Shen's family was blind? Even Minister Jiang was rejected. I didn’t like him, how high does he have to be? I have met Jiang Shilang, and I can’t find anyone else with that kind of charm in Shengjing.”
Shen Yu laughed dryly, eating melon and actually got it on her own head.
I don’t know whether I am blind or not, but if you keep talking like that, you will become mute!
"Oh, look at my mouth," the waiter slapped himself, "General Shen's family is full of loyal people, you shouldn't say that to Miss Shen."
"The Shen family is miserable. Three of them died at once. What do you mean-"
"What did you say?" Shen Yu suddenly interrupted him, "Three people died?"
The waiter was stunned for a moment, "Don't you know? The old general, the young general, and Miss Shen are all dead!"
Shen Yu clenched her fists, "Which Miss Shen?"
"It must be Miss Shen. She has been in and out of the border all year round. It is said that they died in the battlefield together." The waiter sighed.
Shen Yu's face darkened, "Is the news true?"
"Of course," the waiter said matter-of-factly, "On the day of the Shen family's funeral, I went to see three coffins, but it was said that the Major General's bones were not found, and only a tomb was erected."
Shen Yu's thoughts were chaotic.
No, in her letter to Shen Yan, she clearly told her that she would cremate her father. When the three-year mourning period was over, she would take her father's ashes to the border and let him go down the river to reunite with his mother as he wished.
But what happened now completely deviated from the route she had set.
She was mourned inexplicably, and Shen Yu was now a dead person in the world.
Why is this happening?
Did Green Medicine fail to deliver the letter, or did something go wrong?
Shen Yu put a piece of silver on the table and asked, "Brother, do you want to make some extra money?"
The waiter stared straight at the money, rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Young Master, are you kidding? Who doesn't like money? It's just... is this difficult? You know, I am a waiter in a shop, except for The waiter doesn’t know anything else.”
"What I want is your waiter," Shen Yu threw the money into his arms.
Xiao Erle took it, put it in his mouth and bit it, and suddenly became happy, "Master, please give me your instructions."
Shen Yu said: "I want you to keep your ears straight, don't miss any news, and I want you to control your mouth."
"Then if I hear any news, how should I tell the young master?"
Shen Yu now has no one available, but she can't blindly trust the waiter, so she said: "I will come naturally when I need to find you, you don't have to look for me."
The waiter smiled and nodded.
Shen Yu stood up, and when she turned sideways, she deliberately lifted her cloak, revealing a knife at her waist, and said with a smile: "Goodbye, little brother."
The waiter clearly saw the knife, his smile disappeared, and he muttered, "Don't leak the news, keep your mouth shut."
After leaving the teahouse, Shen Yu wandered around the street, visited several shops, and then entered a clothing store.
"Shopkeeper, do you have any fashionable styles?"
The shopkeeper raised his head, his face changed instantly, and he immediately said with a smile: "What kind of style do you want to see, young master?"
