Colorful

Chapter 72
Ji Cheng's side is extremely busy, but Shen Che's side is another story.

After surviving the hot summer, Fatty Chu Dechu felt that he was alive again, and he could work hard on women to his heart's content.The summer was so hot that he didn't want to move at all. He even gave up his favorite activities on weekdays and became a monk for dozens of days.

It's cold now, and it's only warm when you move, so every now and then, you have to invite your friends to and from the Qinlou Chu Pavilion.Chude caught Shen Che today, so naturally he couldn't spare him.Every time he saw Shen Che, he felt itchy, and wanted to see the Buddha wandering off the altar, but unfortunately he failed every time, but Fatty Chu never gave up, and he didn't believe that Shen Che was not a man.

Today I went to the Huamanyuan in Xiaochu Lane, a little-known little place where you can sleep casually with a few coins.

"Why do you always like to come to this kind of place?" Shen Che asked Chu De with a slight frown.Although Huamanyuan devoted all her energy to serving Second Young Master Shen, they had limited financial and material resources after all, and the food and drinks were not to his liking.

"You're so stupid." Chu De said angrily, "Who comes to this kind of place to drink and eat food? You don't understand the beauty of this place, all the female historians here are experienced, Whether it's skills or stamina, it's a few blocks away from those fancy and useless Huakuan ladies. I don't have too much money to burn, so I'm here to use it, I'm happy."

As soon as Chu De's words fell, he almost fell like a dog. He stood up straight and slapped himself. He was really mean. Mr. Cheng said it so smoothly that he forgot that he was in front of Shen Che.

Chu De came up to Shen Che's eyes in a cheap way: "Let me tell you, I just discovered the little Yuxian here not long ago. It's very wonderful and talented. Do you want to try it? You are attracted to it." The soul is almost gone."

Shen Che pushed Chu De's face away with his palm. Although he didn't do this kind of thing, he never spoiled other people's interest, not to mention that he came here to find interest.

"Go play what you want, leave me alone." Shen Che said.

Chu De got the order, so he didn't bother to pay attention to Shen Che, and went to enjoy himself with a few good buddies next to him.These people are all veterans of entertainment, and the trivial things have long failed to arouse their interest, so that they all have some special hobbies. For example, Chu De likes to perform in front of people, and he feels very happy.

That little Yuxian was born delicate and pretty, and when she was set off by all the ladies in the capital, she didn't look very good, but the smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, and there are many people who order her every day, all of them come for that beauty .

Although Shen Che couldn't see her beauty, but Xiao Yuxian's voice "humming and chirping" did have some taste.

Xiao Yuxian rode on Fatty Chu's body and waited hard on him, but her eyes were not honest at all at the Second Young Master Shen who was sitting on the main couch in the hall.

This is the first time for Xiao Yuxian to see Shen Che, and she was fascinated by his appearance with just one glance.Pure and noble, especially those eyes, bright and deep, like the star that guides the direction in the cold night, when the end of the eyes sweeps over you, it can make you numb from the tailbone up.

His demeanor is a bit cold, but it's not the desolate coldness of the world of ice and snow, but the kind of coldness that can bloom a strange fragrance of winter plums, which makes you want to get close to him very much.

Xiao Yuxian's whole body was burning hot, and she served Chu De more attentively, because she only saw another person in her eyes and in her heart.Xiao Yuxian screamed vigorously, hoping to use all her strengths to make Shen Che look at her more sideways, to be moved by her, and to give her a little favor.

Xiao Yuxian's hot energy made the eyes of the two people who came with Chu De straighten, and they waited in line.

Shen Che was still sitting on the couch with an old spirit, and his body became more and more straight.Blessed by Tuo Chude, Shen Che has seen a lot of such live erotic palaces, and he doesn't feel much taste, but he suddenly thinks of Ji Cheng whom he met in the early morning.In a blink of an eye, she seemed to see her twisting buttocks like a spirit snake in Tianxiang Pavilion again. Accompanied by the drumbeat, it made people's body heave and fall, and they had to move some thoughts.

It has nothing to do with love, it's just instinct.

Shen Che's heart throbbed, and he slowly closed his eyes and practiced exercises to adjust his breath.As he closed his eyes, the little Yuxian gradually became a dead fish, losing all vitality.

Chu De knew the reason, and slapped Xiao Yuxian's fat buttocks forcefully: "Didn't you eat?!"

Xiao Yuxian had a smile on her face, but tears were dripping in her heart, she was so different from someone like him, there was a thousand mountains and rivers in between, how could she attract his attention?It was he who wanted to show kindness, but how could she bear such filth.

Born lowly, fate cannot be changed.

Shen Che didn't know how long he had been adjusting his breath, the moon rose and the sun set, and the sun rose and the moon rose again before he opened his eyes.

Chu De was the first to discover it, and hurried to Shen Che: "What kind of tonic did you take this time, this meditation lasted for a day and a night, are you really going to become a Buddha?"

Shen Che slowly opened his eyes, and shook his robe contentedly. He hadn't improved his inner breath for a long time, but unexpectedly, he improved a lot this time.

The room had already been tidied up, and Chu De and their ridiculous banquet had ended for a long time.Shen Che's nose moved: "Why does it smell like incense and paper money?"

"Your nose is better than a dog's nose, isn't it?" Chu De snorted, "How much crime do you think you have done in your life? This morning, Xiao Yuxian threw himself into the river and died."

Shen Che's first reaction was to stare at Chu De.

Chu De hurriedly raised his hands in surrender: "Hey, don't look at me, you know me, absurdity is absurd, but I never bully them, and it's not easy for them to do business." Lie, he's a little bit better than a lot of libertines with a special penchant for violence.

"Then what river did she throw herself into?" Shen Che asked.

Chu De said: "You pretend, you pretend to me. I heard from the girl who served her that before she died, she burned incense and bathed, and went to the small temple around the corner to worship the Bodhisattva. She muttered that this life is dirty and the next life is only for cleanliness. Before she died, she would come here again." I stared blankly at you for a long time in the room. Alas, this girl is so overwhelmed. She is so filthy. The dirtiest thing is the human heart. It’s all your fault. You said that if you fell in love with her at that time, she would be overwhelmed. Do you want to jump into the river and start a new life?" Chu De regretted Xiao Yuxian's death very much, that's really wonderful.

Chu De sighed, but Shen Che didn't feel anything, he got up and walked out without turning his head.

Chu De chased after him and said, "Hey, you are too cold-hearted, aren't you? People want to reincarnate because of you."

Shen Che was too lazy to pay attention to Chu De's noise.In terms of guilt and sympathy, Shen Che didn't have any at all. She had made up her mind long ago that she wanted to die alone, and he just acted as a lead.

When Shen Che returned to the mansion, he first went to the old lady's room to say hello.The old lady was about to take a rest, but when she heard him coming, she sat up from the bed again: "Why are you back so early?"

It can be seen that Shen Che's late return and non-return have become the norm, which is why the old lady asked this question.

"I miss you." Shen Che smiled.

"It's just your sweet talk." The old lady said with a sneer, "Your mother's birthday is almost coming up, this year is a full birthday, she doesn't want to do it, but you, a son, have to think about it for her." The old lady was afraid that Shen Che would forget in a hurry. It would be bad to hurt An He's heart.

"I remember it in my heart." Shen Che said with a smile, "Is there anyone in this family that I can forget?"

The old lady also knew that Shen Che was smarter than ordinary people since he was a child, and he couldn't forget anything that entered his mind, but the old man just loves to worry, doesn't he?

"By the way, although there is no movement in the Wang family right now, you have to be on guard. There are a few girls in my house who know a little bit of kung fu and are also smart. Put one next to the younger sisters in the family, so that you can feel at ease." Shen Che said.

The old lady really smiled and said, "It's hard for you to be thoughtful, don't I worry all day long? Wang Yueniang has entered the palace, and I don't know what will happen to me."

Shen Che patted the back of the old lady's hand: "She is busy fighting with Concubine Wang Shu and Huang Zhaoyi now, and she has no time to do it for a while. Don't worry about it, old man, I will watch over you."

The old lady nodded, and was about to speak when a girl came in from outside and said, Grandpa Guo invites the Second Young Master.

Shen Che resigned from the old lady and went to the house of his father, Duke Shen Zhuo.Princess Ann and Shen Zhuo lived separately, and they sometimes lived together before they had children, but now they haven't lived in the same house for almost ten years.

"Father." When Shen Che entered Shen Zhuo's room, he didn't have a playful smile like he did in the old lady's room.

Shen Zhuo nodded: "Sit down. What's the matter with you? Although you are not a young man, I never care about your affairs outside, but this time you actually killed someone, and I was accused Come here, what do you think?"

Shen Che smiled and sat down, posing casually: "Why did you sue me?"

Shen Zhuo looked at Shen Che and said nothing, meaning to let him tell the truth.

"It has nothing to do with me, it's because the girl herself can't bear to be spoiled, and she has long wished to die." Shen Che said.

Shen Zhuo nodded, he knew his son, he was definitely not someone who came here indiscriminately, many things were just a cover, he only sighed that he was born in a family like them, but it dragged down Shen Che's heart ambition.

"By the way, is there any change in the Western Regions?" Shen Zhuo asked.

"It's okay now. In the past few years, Qiuci and Yanqi have fought fiercely and have no time to look around. However, the old king of Shule is dead, and the second prince has done a lot. I have already started to arrange for the exiled eldest prince to return to Shule. Actually, I What is more worrying is that Ge Luolu in the north has expanded too fast in recent years and is very ambitious." Shen Che said.

Shen Zhuo sighed: "It's a shame that Li Liangtu is so busy with court strife that he doesn't care about the affairs of the Western Regions and Beihu at all, and he still dreams of a peaceful world. If it weren't for your Jingshi Army, Anxi would have ruled the Northwest long ago and raised his troops." It's coming east." Li Liangtu is the prime minister, holding the most important weapon of the country, but his short-sightedness deeply makes Shen Zhuo hate him.

The members of the Shen family came from noble backgrounds, and at most they could reach the position of Taiwei, but the army does not care about politics, and there are many constraints. This world is still the world of civil servants.

Shen Che had no choice but to act in an open and aboveboard manner, so he could only turn to the dark side, doing some conspiracies and schemes to sow discord and secretly control the situation in the Western Regions.

It is lamentable.

"If you weren't your mother's son, with your aptitude, you would have passed the Jinshi exam long ago, and it would be a matter of time before you became a marquis and minister." Shen Zhuo regretted.

Shen Che said: "Father's words are wrong. Without a mother, where did I come from? Besides, my qualifications are too young, how can I be able to worship at my age? If I really reach that age to take power, Daqin doesn't know what has changed. What did it look like. I think it’s pretty good now, at least I can do my best to do what I want to do, and there are so many people helping me.”

Shen Zhuo patted Shen Che's shoulder lightly, and sighed: "Okay, let's not talk about this, I don't care about you if you have your own principles. It's just that you can't ruin your reputation outside like this, at such an old age, Before we talk about marriage, the hair of the old lady and your mother is going to be gray."

Shen Che stood up and said, "Why do you start nagging about these things?"

Shen Zhuo was ashamed, why would it be nagging when talking about marriage? "You can figure it out yourself, the old lady and your mother have already made up their minds, and they will definitely decide on your marriage next year at the latest."

Shen Che smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, as long as it can make the two old people happy. Speaking of which, if they hadn't been picking and choosing for so many years, why did they wait until now? Now they blame me for procrastination, how wronged."

Some people can get married easily, but some people have to work hard.

After Qizheng, Ji Cheng thought about all the unengaged men he knew in his mind, but he couldn't find a suitable one.In the past, he could make do with it, but now Ji Cheng hoped that the other party would be able to counter the Shen family, otherwise, he would always feel unsafe if he held the handle in Shen Che's hands.

The next day when Ji Cheng followed Shen Cui to the old lady's room to say hello, he immediately saw the row of strange girls standing in the room.

The old lady called Shen Xian and the others to the front: "This is the girl that the second elder brother found for you, and she has some skills in her body. From now on, I will take them with me when I go out. Your parents and I can rest assured."

Ji Cheng sneered in his heart, Shen Che's actions were quick enough, but within two or three days, he found excuses to stuff people in a fair manner.

Nan Gui's arrangement is a troublesome matter. If you are far away, you are afraid that Shen Che will become suspicious, and if you are close, you will be afraid that she will betray your master. Ji Cheng looked up and down the unremarkable Nan Gui. He really can't tell what kind of martial arts master it is, so it is safer .

"When you came here, did Second Young Master tell you anything?" Ji Cheng asked.

Nan Gui lowered his eyelids and said, "Second Young Master, let the slaves obey the girl's arrangements. If the girl has something to say, just tell me."

Ji Cheng smiled: "Second Young Master can arrange you by my side, you must be a smart person. Smart people don't say dark words, so I definitely don't trust you. Second Young Master must also know. You can find out What kind of news depends on your personal ability."

Nan Gui nodded: "I understand, girl."

There weren't many rooms in the small courtyard, so Ji Cheng arranged for Nan Gui and Liu Ye'er to live in the same room and monitor each other.

Within two days, the reply from Jindi arrived, but Ji Qing didn't send a letter. Instead, he asked Long Yin, the chief steward beside him, to rush to the capital overnight.

It is naturally impossible for Ji Cheng to bring Nangui with the dragon seal that Ji Cheng saw in Lanhua Lane.Restarting the smuggling of military equipment is not just for fun. After all, Ji Cheng is too young, how can Ji Qing feel at ease, so he asked Long Yin to come to the capital to ask specifically about the situation.

Ji Cheng knew that Guanshi Long was her father's most capable and loyal assistant, so he didn't hide anything from him: "Uncle Long, there is one thing that nobleman said is right, since he has made up his mind to do that, isn't it? We, he will also pick other people. Since he has already set his sights on the Ji family, the Ji family has no way out. Knowing too much about things, it is impossible to retreat completely." Ji Cheng said.

Long Yin nodded: "Master was also worried about the girl, so he asked me to come to the capital. The master understands what the girl said, and he also asked me to come to the capital to assist the girl."

Ji Cheng nodded: "I'm afraid I can't live without you by my father's side, and if we want to do that matter, the focus is on northern Shanxi. It's useless for you to help me in the capital. You can go back and talk to father, no matter what happens to me, No, I will return to Jindi next spring at the latest, so let him not worry about it."

Long Yin said: "Actually, after reading the girl's letter, the master already has a plan in mind. What does the girl think? The Tan family has been stuck with ordnance, and we used to have to ask their house for goods. How did this matter start now?" ?”

Ji Cheng said: "Uncle Long, I have a letter here for brother Ziyun. When I was discussing with the nobleman, my request was to let him keep the Ji family and Ling family. If we can join hands with the Ling family, this matter will be fine." It’s a lot to do. I hope Brother Ziyun will agree after reading my letter.” Ji Cheng sighed, she and Ling Ziyun are no longer the same, and he is not sure whether he will agree.

"Uncle Long, there are people watching me now, so this letter can only be forwarded through you. If there is anything in the future, I can only ask you to run on both sides. If you have someone you can trust, let him be in Jindi Running on both sides with the capital, if the letter falls into the hands of others, it will be a disaster after all." Ji Cheng said.

"I understand. I'll bring my apprentice here this time." Long Yin introduced Xiao Dechuan to Ji Cheng. He was only a twelve or thirteen-year-old child. It is indeed appropriate to send letters from both sides.

After returning to Shen's mansion, Ji Cheng thought that now she was just running errands for Shen Che, in order to reassure the master, she also had to reply, but she was too lazy to see Shen Che, thinking about it made her sick.Now Ji Cheng's news is considered well-informed. When she was in Lanhua Lane, someone had tipped her about Xiao Yuxian.

Ji Cheng has seen how Chu De's group of people played with women, and now they have played with their lives. This group of people are nothing like dogs, women are cheap, and being born as a woman is also sad.Ji Cheng also thought countless times that if he were a man, then all her troubles would be gone.

"Call Nangui over here." Ji Cheng said to Liu Ye'er, "By the way, how is she these days?"
