The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 390 Spring Rain

The rain fell continuously, and the raindrops slapped on the ground, like plump and clear grapes bursting open.

For a long time, I have never seen such a heavy rain.

Seeing Shen Ye making fun of herself with a smirk on her face, Wan Yu had a sudden idea, pretending to be serious, and took up the posture of a concubine, and scolded Shen Ye: "Bold Shen Ye, you can make fun of me, too?"

Shen Ye frowned and looked at her, and then pointed to Wanyu's naturally drooping right hand: "In the past, when my mother lied, she would rub her right thumb and index finger together. Now it's like this, it can be seen that she is joking with this humble minister."

Wanyu put her hands behind her hands in a panic, and smiled helplessly: "I really can't handle you." She shook her head, arranged her clothes and sat down in the pavilion, carefully watching the raindrops falling from the sky, and muttered: "The wind and rain are as dark as the rooster crows." Endless."

"Rooster crowing?" Shen Ye scratched his head, listened to it carefully, and wondered: "Why is the cock crowing? In the sky of Jiangye, if it crows, wouldn't it be chicken essence."

Wan Lai couldn't laugh or cry, she frowned at him: "Are you serious, my lord?"

Shen Ye nodded calmly, and his handsome eyes sparkled brightly: "This question should be asked by a humble minister, but can you take it seriously?"

Wanyu shook her head with a smile, and said helplessly: "You have not been good at poetry and poetry since you were young. You are going to make a joke."

Shen Ye let out a 'hi', and leaned on the wooden pillar of the long pavilion: "What's the point of learning from someone who is well-mannered? What's the use of learning those obscure verses when a man's ambition is everywhere, or galloping on the battlefield?" He weighed his hand Saber, proudly said: "It's not as real as kung fu."

"I remember that in the mansion, when you were sent out by Ama, you only scratched the surface." At this point, I suddenly remembered a question that had been lingering in my heart, so I asked: "In the past, the lord rescued the eldest sister out of the water." When I was young, there was one thing that I felt fresh. Remember when you are young, you are afraid of water."

Shen Ye nodded: "It's still the same today."

Wan Yu said: "Then why did you go into the water to save people? If you were not careful, wouldn't you risk your own life?"

"Ma'am, do you want to hear the truth?"

"nature."

Shen Yeli straightened the hem of the official clothes, and said in a steady voice: "There are two reasons. First, the person who fell into the water is the young lady. Because of love, the humble servant should rescue her. Second, the person who fell into the water is the queen and the queen mother." , out of selfishness, this minister is also saved. I don’t want to be just a gatekeeper or a palace guard, I want to make a better future for myself.”

Such honest words from such a calm person are rarely heard in the palace.

In fact, who is a saint?
It's just that after getting along in the palace for a long time, I always have to hide my selfishness, even if it's for myself, I have to pretend to be righteous and save all sentient beings.

Seeing Shen Ye like this, Wanyu unconsciously became a little more curious about him: "Your father died of pox, and after his death, the court branded him anti-Qing and Fuming and wiped out the whole family, but you don't hate it, on the contrary Still want to be loyal to the court?"

"It's hatred, but the person who burned down the ancestral house of the humble minister in the past has already been executed." Shen Ye paused, and said with clear eyes: "Your Majesty, do you know who did it?"

Wan Yu thought about it for a while, and asked tentatively, "Your Majesty?"

Shen Ye nodded heavily, his brows were full of reverence: "Today's sage, who has mastered military strategy and strategized, can guide the country to defeat the Wu army externally, and punish traitors and crooks selflessly internally. This humble minister is honored to serve in front of the imperial court. blessing."

It turns out that in the eyes of others, the emperor is so beautiful and flawless.

Wan Yu never thought about it carefully, she only knew to blame the emperor for being ruthless, but since she entered the palace, she knew the reason why the emperor was ruthless.

After all, I have gained too much, so I have to look around in Shu, delusional thinking about getting a piece of this person's heart, so I want to take his whole heart as my own.

Little did he know that in his heart, he was the only one, the one to rely on, and his own heaven.

And he is a king with the world in mind, and to him, he is just a icing on the cake.

Facing a decoration, the emperor is really benevolent.

Thinking of this, Wanyu suddenly wanted to laugh.

Laugh yourself sad, and laugh at all the women in this world.

"What are you thinking, ma'am?"

"Think about some vulgar truths." Wan Yu's thoughts were pulled by Shen Ye's question, and then she asked with a smile: "Master Shen, do you have someone in mind?"

Shen Ye shook his head, and replied with a little shame: "Of course there is."

"If one day, my lord gets married with her, will my lord only treat her well?"

Without hesitation, Shen Ye firmly nodded and said, "That's natural." After finishing speaking, his voice softened a bit and he murmured, "But, where is there such a chance? I'm just the most inconspicuous person in this palace. It’s just a guard, what good can she get by following me?”

"My lord, do you know what women in the world want most? Glory and wealth, or good clothes and good food?" Seeing that Shen Ye was in a daze, Wannai shook her head and said in a deep voice, "From what I see, it is probably to look forward to, a pair for a lifetime. People. If you are willing to treat her sincerely, you have already given her the most beautiful things in this world, so why should you belittle yourself and care about these many external affairs?"

While talking, in the distance, I saw a cloud cicada coming in the rain, holding an oil umbrella, running towards the pavilion as if flying.

Wan Yu looked at her from a distance, afraid that she would fall, so she called out loudly: "Slow down, step carefully."

Yun Chan thought that she was still in the rain, so how could she take care of her?

Like a mandarin bird falling into the water, the man thumped into the long pavilion, and then said out of breath, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the maidservant is late, are you not freezing?"

Wan Yu wiped the raindrops off Yun Chan's face with a silk cloth, and said with a smile, "How can you be so hypocritical? It's you, look, your clothes are all wet."

Yun Chan shook her head and replied that it was nothing, only then did she see Shen Ye sitting alone in the corner of the long pavilion.So Fuli greeted him and said, "Master Shen is auspicious."

Shen Ye waved his hand to give up, then pointed to the rain falling outside the pavilion and said, "This kind of rain, I'm afraid it will fall all night, let's protect your mother and go back to the palace earlier."

Yun Chan agreed, and bid farewell to Shen Ye while supporting Wan Yu.

At night, the rain fell more densely, Shen Ye gathered his clothes tightly, thinking about going to sleep in the pavilion tonight, suddenly an eunuch stood behind him and threw an oil-paper umbrella to him: "Master Shen, the night is rainy, Our empress ordered the servant to bring you an umbrella, you should go back and rest quickly."

Shen Ye took a closer look, only to realize that the person was Li Yin who was next to Wanya, so she hurriedly put away the oil umbrella, said thank you, and walked out of the pavilion to meet Li Yin.

After Li Yin walked away, he slowly took out the gold-sprinkled magnolia note in his arms, held it tightly in his hand and waited for a long time, and whispered softly: "One life, one pair?"
