Chapter 142 Unforgettable

The Beisan Palace is still in ruins, surrounded by weeds and ruins. Although it does not match the other gorgeous palaces in the Forbidden City, it is very suitable for Lin Rongyu who is currently down and out.

The servant of the Jingu Supervisor led him here, and then he left as if fleeing.He looked intently and recognized that this dilapidated house was actually the one where Emperor Shengping imprisoned him back then. The world was a big dream, and it turned out that the starting point was also the ending point.

As if seeing an old friend, he gently caressed the tables, chairs and beds, brushed off their dust, and then sat on the bed with his knees hugged, watching the dust flying, just like 22 years ago, his heart was emptied.

It's just that at that time, he might still vaguely hope that he could be needed and remembered by others, and perhaps he secretly hoped that he could leave some marks in the world.Over the years, he has indeed done many reminiscent things, but some people are happy because of those things, while others are gnashing their teeth and resentment.However, at this moment, he sincerely hopes that this world can completely forget him and annihilate all evidence of his existence.

Rong Yu lived quietly in Beisan No. [-] Institute for a few days, no one came to disturb him.After a while, occasionally someone from the Jingu Temple would ask him to go out and clean some unused palace.

Coincidentally, the day was a little cloudy, and the stubborn leg disease inevitably started to attack again. He took advantage of the interval between sweeping the floor to rub his knees. This repeated action made the young servant on the side very dissatisfied, and went straight to him and scolded him. Warn him not to try to be lazy, otherwise he will be dealt with severely by the Ming officer.

Rong Yu was too lazy to distinguish, just about to nod, but suddenly felt the sting of thousands of arrows on his leg, he couldn't help but staggered two steps, the broom in his hand fell, and the dust rose and stained the opponent's clothes in an instant.

After standing still a bit, he was about to apologize to the servant, but when he raised his eyes, he saw that he had raised his arm, and he had no strength to move any further, so he had to turn his head sideways, close his eyes and wait for the palm to fall.

Unexpectedly, there was no expected pain, he opened his eyes, and saw that the servant's hand was grabbed from behind, and the face of the person standing behind him was quite familiar.Suddenly remembered that it seemed to be the current palm print of the Jingongjian.

Compared with ten years ago, that person's face is much plump, and his brows still have the shadow of that year, but he no longer has the pitiful look of trembling.Rong Yu still remembered his name - Lu Xiao, who was the servant he rescued from Qin Ruozhen in Kunning Palace back then.

Lu Xiao glanced at Rong Yu calmly, and then ordered everyone in the courtyard not to assign him chores, beat him, scold him, or set foot in the small courtyard where he lived to harass him.

Now all the people in charge of the Twelve Supervisors have changed, and most of them are not familiar with each other. Unexpectedly, at this time, they have to meet old people to help them.He nodded to Lu Xiao to express his gratitude, and the other party nodded in response, but he didn't talk to him from the beginning to the end.

Since then, life has obviously improved, and the meals are richer than before, and there are even servants who come to clean the room for him. He shows a little gratitude, and those people rush to ask him to sit down. The humility of the attitude makes people suspicious It was in a dream.

Therefore, apart from loneliness, life is really not difficult.Rong Yu stared blankly at a small piece of blue sky above his head every day, no matter how calm he was, he had to admit that such a life was too boring.He began to want to find some paper and pens to pass the time, but he knew that such behavior would be forbidden by the emperor, so he could only secretly look for opportunities.

He begged a little servant who brought him meals to find some discarded pens and ink, and to help him bring a piece of paper every day, and promised that he would hide the pen and ink well and burn the paper after writing.After getting the pen and paper, he would practice calligraphy and play every night, and unconsciously write some memories of the past, such as playing chess, singing, making tea, burning incense, burning kisses, inextricably lingering, and embracing and tracing. At that time, there was a delicate fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus outside the window, and orioles were hidden deep under the leaves of sycamore trees.

It was really hard to write on a piece of paper. After it was full, he looked at it carefully, recalled it slowly, and then lit a fire to burn it to ashes.

When spring came, new swallows flew under the eaves, and he watched them build their nests, sometimes it took a long time to watch them.In the evening, put the folded branches and new mud together, and place them where the swallows fly by. The next day, seeing them accept his gift with joy, I will be really happy for a long time.

Suddenly one day, the little waiter who often came to deliver meals did not appear, but was replaced by an unfamiliar person.Rong Yu felt that something was wrong, and sure enough the next morning, a group of servants broke into his room and searched for suspicious items in every corner. Fortunately, he buried his pen and ink under the locust tree in the courtyard the night before.The crowd left angrily without finding anything, and after a while, a large bundle of bamboo strips was delivered, and they said to them, this is the emperor's order, since he has nothing to do all day, he will weave all these bamboo strips.After that, the servants will send new ones every other day according to the number, and the cycle goes on and on, every day.

I really don't know when this will continue, until Chuanxi quietly came with a close servant and asked him what he needed, he honestly put forward, "I'm trapped here now, even if I get tuberculosis, it's not unusual I beg Sun Gong to arrange a manpower to take the opportunity to transport a "dead" Lin Rongyu out of the palace, shouldn't it be difficult?"

Chuanxi was stunned for a moment, with a look of embarrassment on his face, Rong Yu saw that he was not afraid, but just worried, and added fuel to the flames, "It's been half a month since I came back. Your Majesty is the first to ascend the Great Treasure, and everything is complicated. I'm afraid I'll be overwhelmed sooner." No one has forgotten. An insignificant servant died of illness. Could it be that Mr. Sun has to report to the emperor? Mr. Sun also knows that if the emperor wants my life, how can I live to this day? I will disappear forever in the world. Isn't it more in line with God's will?"

The subject changed, and he said again, "It's different now, but I know Sun Gong still values ​​friendship in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't have spoken out for me in front of the emperor several times. If Sun Gong still wants to reminisce about the old love, I will I am very grateful. Otherwise, I, a sinner, will be in trouble after all if I know too many things, and I will inevitably hinder others."

Chuanxi understood the reminder in his words, which involved the fact that he concealed and framed his colleagues for himself back then, so he couldn't help but snorted and stomped his feet, "If you don't say that, I meant it too." After finishing speaking, he felt that he must not believe it , shook his head and said, "I know I'm not a good person, I'm not good at seeing profit, I'm greedy for wealth and honor, I admit it, but I'm still a human being, and I also care about human feelings. We grew up together, just like my brothers What, how can I just watch you suffer, that's all, just treat it as my own merits in the future."

Rong Yu smiled, his heart immediately relaxed, the two sides agreed to just wait for the news of the joy, and once the time is right, they will ask their confidantes to smuggle him out of the palace.

Before leaving, Chuanxi suddenly said, "Don't say it's me, even Cen Jin, who is usually hostile to you, never intentionally misrepresented you. What the emperor read to you that day was actually not written by him, but he borrowed it from him. The name is to anger you. That person has a lot of backbone, he dares to reject even the emperor's confession, because he has completely lost his black hat, he is already a person who has made an extraordinary recovery, and I am afraid that he will have no chance to stand up again in this life."

Rong Yu listened silently and did not reply, but a warm feeling slowly emerged in his heart.

During the waiting process, the days were still as usual. He was basking in the sun in the courtyard that day, thinking whether to weave a bamboo basket or a pillow mat, when suddenly there was a choked sound from behind, brother.

Looking back, I saw Lin Sheng standing behind him, looking at him incredulously, and tears fell from his eyes in a short while.

Rong Yuyu got up, Lin Sheng stepped forward and pressed him down, squatted beside him, sobbing silently, "I came to see you...how did you become so thin, they..." He pulled the strips and said angrily , "Are they torturing you like this every day? You can't stay here anymore, let's go, I'll go back to the prince, and you go back to Wu Wang's mansion with me."

It took Rong Yu a long time to press him down, "I'm glad to see you here, please help me up, let's talk inside."

Lin Sheng helped him into the house first, and when he saw the situation in the room, he burst into tears again, "Is this a place where people live? You have never suffered such a crime in your life, and you must not stay here. I said it a long time ago , if he sits in this position, he will definitely not treat you kindly, but he is too vicious."

Rong and Wuyan smiled, and poured him some tea, "I lived here many years ago, and I'm not that expensive. As for him, he didn't kill me or impose any punishment on me. that's too bad."

"Come with me, go to the palace, I will support you, the prince will definitely agree, if he knows what you are like now..."

Rong Yu shook his head, "Don't tell him, it will only cause trouble. Ah Sheng, I really want to go with you, but I can't. My health is not as good as before, and it will be a burden to go anywhere. And I promised the late emperor to stay here ,Live well."

Lin Sheng had tears in his eyes, and said in a bitter tone, "Just because of this one sentence, you trapped yourself here? He is... not here anymore! Wake up, why have you ever lived for yourself in this life?"

Bear the words in his heart—the less people know about his escape plan, the better. If something happens, he doesn't want to hurt Lin Sheng. He waved his hand with a smile. .Since it is agreed, it must be done.”

Even though it was against his will and Shen Hui's request, he could only satisfy one of them, and survive, but he couldn't grow old in this square inch of the world.

Not wanting to confuse Lin Sheng too much, Rong Yu turned to ask him about King Wu's recent situation and Fang Yu's arrangement.As Lin Sheng answered, he calmed down a little.

After talking for a long time, it was not until the servant next to King Wu came to him that Lin Sheng brought up the topic of taking and leaving again.

"Let you live well, I understand this naturally. But what are you doing in the palace? What's the point of living like this? How will you live in the future, have you thought about it clearly?"

It is indeed comfortable outside, but can the sea and the sky be brighter when you go out, Rong Yu was silent for a while, and told him with a smile, "I still have memories. With those memories, I feel that I can live."

"You have worked so hard for him all your life, but you still don't regret it. With a person like you, the late emperor should be smiling even under the nine springs."

Lin Sheng left this sentence with emotion, staring at him for a long time with tears in his eyes, before turning and leaving.

Whether Shen Hui is smiling or not is not clear, I can only ask him when I see him again, and I don't know if he is willing to wait for me by the Naihe Bridge for a few more years.

Another new year, the emperor changed the name of the year, and this year is the first year of Xianping.After the fifteenth day, Chuanxi suddenly ordered someone to bring a message, saying that it would be convenient to do things in the evening the next day.Unexpectedly, the world is unpredictable, the next day at dawn, Rong and Shang were fetching water to wash, suddenly a group of servants rushed in from the courtyard, the leader of whom he did not recognize at all, the man looked around and asked him if there was anything he needed to clean up .

Rong Yu was puzzled, shook his head, and asked him where he was ordered to take him.

To his great surprise, the visitor then announced the emperor's oral order to escort him to the Imperial Mausoleum in Nanjing immediately, and then he will think about his mistakes in the imperial mausoleum, and he is not allowed to leave without an edict.

This sudden "emperor's grace" caught him off guard.The servants did not give him a chance to ask any more questions, and quickly pushed him out of the Shenwu Gate. Before boarding the car, they saw a man in Tsing Yi looking at him from a distance. After staring for a while, the man suddenly stood up. He bowed to him with his hand.

Rong and Kan looked familiar with the man in Tsing Yi, and when he got into the car, he remembered that it was Cen Jin who he hadn't seen for a long time, but it was a pity that he didn't recognize him just now, and now he was speeding out of the city with the carriage, and he would never have the chance to see this old friend again in this life .

Going back and forth, two thousand miles of water, and back to Nanjing from the capital.It was dusk when we arrived at the imperial mausoleum.At the turn of spring and summer in the south of the Yangtze River, the mountains are full of green shade, and the sun is setting, and the tired birds in the forest return to their old nests one after another.

The mausoleum guard took him to a small courtyard, pointed to the room inside, "You will live here from now on."

After saying that, he ignored him and turned around.Rong He casually looked at it. Although the room was not big, it was cleaned and tidy, and the daily necessities were also available. He was overjoyed that this was much more comfortable than the Beisan School.

After simple packing, he started a new life here.But the strange thing is that no one assigned him what to do, because he saw that other people would go to the imperial mausoleum every few days to clean and trim the flowers and trees, and Rong Yuyin asked the manager for instructions, but he was noncommittal and never took the initiative found him.Even if he really lived a life of seclusion.

And here he is not restricted to use paper and pen, and he can even find some books.Apart from the fact that the mountain is somewhat humid and leg diseases are more likely to occur, Shouling has no other shortcomings.

One night, the wormwood in the room was burned out, fearing that there would be many mosquitoes in the mountains, so Rong Yu asked the steward for some new ones, he nodded in agreement, and told Rong Yu to go back first, and he would send someone to bring them later.

One person enjoyed writing in the room, and remembered the words he had reconciled with Shen Hui that day, so he wrote silently on the paper.

The door opened with a creak, and Rong Yu didn't raise his eyes. From the corner of his eye, he saw a person coming in. He thought it was the servant who delivered the wormwood for him, so he smiled and said, "Put it by the bed for me, and run a little bit if you are tired." , thank you."

He turned around to get some scattered silver to others, only to hear a voice whisper, "Rong Yu."

With a shake of his hand, the purse fell to the ground with a crisp sound.Rong Yu raised his eyes hesitantly, the voice was so familiar that he would never hear it wrong, but how is it possible?That person is no longer there.

When the person approached a little bit, Rong Yu felt confused, a layer of sweat was seeping on his back, but he just stared at the person persistently.

"Rong Yu, it's me." His voice was clear and calm, except for rare occasions, with a slight tremor, "Look at me."

Biting the tip of her tongue hard, a gust of blood gushed into her mouth, proving that she was not dreaming, took another deep breath, and looked deeply at the person standing in front of her.

Sword eyebrows slanted, phoenix eyes were smiling, it was the face he thought about day and night, haunting his dreams, and at this moment, he was actually right in front of his eyes.

Stretching out his hand tremblingly, the moment he touched that cheek, he couldn't help trembling all over, whispering like a dream, "Shen Hui..."

There were waves in the man's eyes. When he heard him call him, he immediately nodded, smiled, grabbed his hand, and pressed it to his face, "It's me, it's really me. Rong Yu, I've been waiting for you for a long time. "

Standing opposite each other like this, after a long time, Rong Yu calmed down a little and asked, "Why are you here? You are not..."

Shen Hui nodded first, then shook his head with a smile, "If I don't tell the world that I am dead, how can I be with you, how can I fulfill my promise to you?"

It's such a good reason, but it's too unbelievable, and he was puzzled, "What about the emperor? He knows it too? How could he promise you to do this?"

Shen Hui slightly raised his head, with a haughty expression, "He doesn't have the guts to kill his father and king. I'm willing to give up the throne early, so he will be happy to accept it."

"Then it was said that you were sick, refused to seek medical treatment, and only favored priests... Are these all false?"

"That's true." Shen Hui lowered his eyes and smiled embarrassedly, "As for the Taoist priest, it is also useful. I took his elixir to make it seem like I was dead, and deceived everyone. However, the elixir still hurts a lot. body..."

Before he finished speaking, Rong Yu asked quickly, "What's wrong with your health? What's wrong now?"

Shen Hui didn't answer, but just looked at him, his eyes became softer and softer, "I'm fine, I'm just weaker than before, and I'm getting old after all. You also said me, look how thin you have become, that day you When I came here, I looked at you from a distance, and almost cried, why are you so haggard... Could it be that he is torturing you again?"

It turned out that when he saw himself coming here, he was both happy and a little fooled in his heart, and asked, "You are really at ease. Since you have come here, why have you been hiding these days and refused to come out to see me?"

Thinking of his grief when he was shocked to hear the news of his death, the unforgettable pain was just a prank, everything was planned by him, but he kept it from himself.Gritting his teeth with tolerance and hatred, but seeing that Shen Hui's face was much thinner than before, he felt sad again—he gave up his position as the supreme under heaven, just to fulfill the promise to stay with him, such a sacrifice is not insignificant .

Unable to bear to get angry with him, Rong Yu just snorted and ignored him.

"Don't be angry, I'll explain it to you." Shen Hui took a look at his expression and understood everything, and said carefully, "I really can't help it. It will take a while to recover after taking the medicine, and I'm afraid you will believe it. What a stupid thing to do, I have to let the second brother take you back to Beijing... I know, you have been wronged, and it is over. Next, you should take care of your body first, and when you get well, you can vent your anger as much as you want ,OK?"

Rong Yu thought about it and asked, "Where is the emperor, do you guarantee that he will keep his promise? Will he have other thoughts in the future, and the people in this imperial mausoleum, can you trust them?"

Shen Hui said frankly, "Don't worry, the whole tune who has seen me in everything has left. No one here knows me. Brother Xian has dispatched his cronies again. The second brother only needs to be his emperor in Beijing. What's more The Tiger Talisman of Sailor and Guan Ning’s cavalry is still in my hand. He dare not do anything to me, and I will treat him well after all.”

"Did you involve the King of Wu?" Rong Yu reacted very quickly, and immediately thought of the pass, "This matter is so confidential, and you are in the border of Nanjing. If he becomes suspicious, will it be disadvantageous to the King of Wu in the future."

Seeing that his eyes were full of worry, Shen Hui felt love and helplessness at the same time, sighed lightly, and his eyes were filled with tenderness, "I have made all the arrangements, can you not think so much, is it not enough to worry about in this life? My son has done so many things, it should be treated as his repayment to you. Can't you trust me? I am his father anyway. "

That's right, a person who has been an emperor after all, it's easy to plan a strategy. Now that it's done, it can only go on like this.Rong and smiled, and didn't say any more unnecessary words.

But when he showed his face, it was clear that the clouds were scattered and the moon was boundless. Shen Hui was dazed, and said after a long while, "When you get fit, let's leave here when you get fatter. Great rivers and mountains, I will accompany you wherever you want on."

It was obvious that he couldn't settle down by himself, and he didn't have the patience to stay in the cemetery at all. Rong Yu let out a light snort, and lazily said, "I have bad legs. I can't go up the mountain, and I can't go down to the sea."

"I know, I know, I can carry you on my back, let's run horses on the beach, you just sit, and I will do all the work."

"How old are you, can you still recite it?"

Seeing the face and smiling, Shen Hui became more energetic now, and said with emotion for a long time, "Fortunately, I left that oral order, otherwise I'm afraid I won't see you."

Without mentioning this, I almost forgot, Rong Yu looked at him with raised eyebrows, "Are you afraid that I will die in love?"

Looking at that expression, it is clear that you are thinking too much, and you are almost writing the words "pretending to be passionate" on your face.

Shen Hui said embarrassingly, "I'm afraid that you think you will be trapped in the palace for a lifetime. I asked him to call you back to watch you. In order to prevent any changes, I want him to erase all your deeds. It is not allowed to be written into the history books. I know you don’t care about this, but I still feel sorry for you, really. But when you think about it, there is nothing to be persistent about. Rather than being distorted and tampered with by them, it is better not to mention it at all. Would you Blame me?"

Rong Yu smiled, his attitude was very free and easy, "It's nothing, you don't even care about your own, what else do I care about, you know it all, why bother to ask."

If he hadn't met Cen Jin to greet him that day, Rong Yuzhen would have thought that Shen Yu had reneged on his promise. Now it seems that Shen Hui's influence in Shen Yu's mind is indeed strong enough.

He pulled his lips and smiled softly, "I originally planned to run far away, but fortunately the emperor sent someone in time, otherwise I would have left early. Whether it is going abroad or going to the customs to enjoy yourself, what can I do, I want money and contacts Well connected."

Thinking about it this way, it should be considered that Shen Yu has done a good deed. At least he mentioned that he kept someone. Shen Hui smiled flatteringly, "I know you are capable and capable, and you can live well anywhere. In fact, I can't live without you." , really, it's me."

As he spoke, his eye circles turned slightly red, and Rong Yu's mouth and nose were sour from seeing it, he licked his lips, sighed silently, then grabbed Shen Hui, and kissed his lips quickly and accurately.

The body is tightly pressed together, it is a warm and familiar feeling, but suddenly there is a pain in the knee, Rong Yu staggered twice, Shen Hui hurriedly supported him, helped him go to the bed and sat down, and was in a hurry again to fetch hot water.

Seeing him doing this unskillfully, Rong and felt mixed feelings in his heart.Shen Hui moved slowly for fear of hurting him, and his tone was full of love and affection, "It got worse when I was in Nanjing, I really shouldn't let you come to this place. The imperial mausoleum is not good either, the humidity is too heavy, turn around Let's find a place with a good view to live in the northwest of the Fortress."

Rong Yu nodded with a smile, only feeling at ease in his heart, except that the pain all over his body was still reminding him that he could finally let go of all the long-term thinking and exhaustion, and he really needed a good rest .

Shen Hui looked at him distressedly, stroked the blue color in his eyes, took off his coat for him, covered him with the quilt, then sat on the edge of the bed and watched with a smile.

"I won't be the emperor anymore, but I'm not good at serving people. There are places where I don't serve well. In the future, don't laugh at me, and don't bully me."

Rong Yu listened amusedly, and gave him a sideways glance, "You really despise people, how I treated you in the past is still the same now."

Shen Hui deeply believed that they had "come and go" for so long, and Rong Yu had long regarded him as a lover and a partner in his heart, and he never showed any sense of inferiority, even on the night of parting, he dedicated himself like that, Rong Yu It should just be a smile and say, he doesn't want this.

The more I think about it, the more I fall in love, but it's a pity that he is too thin now, otherwise I really want to hold him in my hand and fall in love with him once.Shen Hui thought about it, starting from tomorrow, he would put the best food in Nanjing in front of him—although he was no longer the emperor, he still didn't want to be arrogant, and he always wanted to serve his lover well first.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Rong and patted the bed, and moved his body inside, "Stay here with me tonight."

These words sounded like the sounds of nature, Shen Hui was full of joy, and felt that he should listen to him in everything, and quickly took off his coat, while slandering himself, the so-called strict control of his wife is nothing more than that.

Turning off the lights, there was only a faint moonlight in the room. Shen Hui was reluctant to sleep, and kept staring at him sideways. Seeing his eyelashes drooping and his face calm, he really seemed to be asleep. He was neither reconciled nor dared to move. Mosuo lightly held his hand, then listened and hummed, "I had a dream last night. I dreamed that when I got home and opened the door, someone stood in the courtyard and said to me with a smile, I'm back. I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Tears welled up in his eyes in the darkness, Shen Hui held his hand tightly, and said softly, "I am here, I have always been here, I will wait for you every day from now on, and I will say this to you every day."
