Lin Risheng found it difficult to agree with the emperor's employment strategy, but he still admired Shi Jiaheng's observation and analysis skills. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info he sighed deeply: "Although I am an official in the imperial court, my knowledge is far from being comparable to Brother Shi. After listening to your words, I know how correct the emperor's words are, and I am really not suitable to be an official. The emperor's scheming city, even if I stay in the Hanlin Academy for ten or twenty years, I can't see through it. ”

Shi Jiaheng waved his hand modestly and said: "Brother Lin, don't be discouraged, although I have served in the imperial court for a short time, I have been in the army for many years, and these things have been slowly figured out." ”

Lin Risheng laughed at himself: "Actually, I'm not as good as Yunxi. ”

Chu Yunxi also smiled bitterly and said, "Don't talk about me." I'm actually doing stupid things with wishful thinking. At that time, the belief of avenging my father, relieving the worries of the saints, and eliminating harm for the world supported me, and made me firmly believe that everything I did would eventually be recorded in history, regardless of success or failure. I think that at that time, if I had exposed Chu Xiaolian's identity a year earlier, it is estimated that I would have been beheaded on the charge of slandering and slandering important ministers of the court, but at that time, it happened to be the time when the prime minister's power was at its most expanded, and the emperor just used our reason to kill him to alleviate the resentment of the ministers against the court. Chu Xiaolian is just a tool for killing the enemy and a shield to block arrows, even if we don't expose him, sooner or later, the saint will kill him and sacrifice the banner to calm the anger of the people, now it seems that if Chu Xiaolian did not kill my father and replace him, with my father's character, if he can't retreat bravely as soon as possible, he will eventually be a sacrifice to the court. In this world, there are no definite rules for loyalty, good and evil, right and wrong, and wrong, and those noble qualities taught by the saints are ideals, but they are just illusions that cannot be realized at all. ”

"So we just need to follow our hearts and do what we feel is right, and we don't have to be afraid of the outside world." Shi Jiaheng had something to say, Chu Yunxi pretended to be a god and lowered his head.

After this meeting, Chen Siyu let go of his high heart and lived with peace of mind. Although she was unwilling, donating her family property could save her grandfather's life, and the business was still worth it. The Chen family's core industry account book, she has always carried with her. After her endless accounting day and night, she only left part of the ancestral property and ancestral house of her family, and the rest of the property was sold by Chen Hong into silver, and she will be escorted to Chang'an in the near future.

The servants in the family were also dismissed, and those who were returned were returned, except for a few desperate family slaves who were unwilling to leave the old home in Hangzhou to guard the houses and fields, only Xiao Hongye, who was willing to serve the young lady, and Chen Hong, who was willing to take care of the old lady, were left.

I can't be distressed, she accepted her fate, business is like this, ups and downs are common, when you are rich, you can be rich in the world, and you can be penniless when you are poor, fortunately, they are not poor to live on the streets, and when they take their grandfather home, he can enjoy his old age in peace for the rest of his life.

Although the emperor had judged Lin Risheng's diagnosis to have ulterior motives, he still persistently asked the emperor to accept his treatment. Although he no longer needed to bother to present his grievances in front of the emperor, he still had to risk the wrath of the dragon face to kneel down and ask for Saint Ann. Because no matter how supreme and noble the emperor's status is, he is only a patient in urgent need of treatment. Maybe the emperor was really tormented by headaches, and even if he hated to see him again, he couldn't quit his dependence on acupuncture and medicine. This time he really learned a lesson, never before the emperor in front of a private matter, he silently did his job, did his best to take care of his patients, Rao is the emperor is too suspicious and indifferent, but also has to be moved by his brilliant medical skills and selfless attitude.

The Emperor's headache could not be cured, but he was satisfied that the pain had gradually subsided. On the last day of the third course of treatment, the monarch and minister, who had been in silence, finally started a last conversation.

The emperor's praise spread to the Imperial Hospital, which made the imperial doctors ashamed and indignant, and spread to the Hanlin Academy, making their peers envious and jealous. When he returned to the Hanlin Academy to resume his own work, those colleagues who had once ridiculed him for indulging in the art of Qihuang and not doing their jobs suddenly became attentive and enthusiastic, and overnight, the medical skills that had brought him ridicule suddenly became the greatest pride in his life, but he did not feel the slightest brow raised, but felt extremely cold. The cold state of the world and the warmth of human affection are ruthlessly amplified here, making him feel as if he is soaked in ice water all the time, except for loneliness and helplessness, hatred and disgust.

Chen Siyu was in the hut where Chu Yunxi once lived in seclusion, taking stock and liquidating the hard work of the Chen family for several generations. She had mixed feelings, but she couldn't do anything about it. Although Lin Risheng came to visit her every time with the intention of persuading her, but every time she persuaded her, she seemed to have returned to normal, and began to make some playful jokes to make him happy, and make some pranks to make him happy, so that he could come with a sad face every time and leave happily.

After a long time, Gu Mengying could see some clues even if it was made of wood. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and she has already heard about them, so she decided to take advantage of Lin Risheng's duty in the palace to go and see this Miss Chen.

As soon as there was a knock on the door, Xiao Hongye put down the work in his hand and lazily opened the door. Lin Risheng has been the most frequent in the past few times, although Chen Siyu treats him as usual, but she can't hide her annoyance, every time she sees him, there is a nameless fire surging up, but she can't attack, she can only ignore him with a cold face.

She walked very slowly, and the people outside the door lost their patience, and the knocking became more and more impatient. She opened the door with force to show that she was angry inside, but unexpectedly there was a maid standing at the door.

The maid poked her head in curiously and asked, "May I ask Chen Siyu, does Miss Chen live here?" ”

Xiao Hongye pushed her angrily, blocked the door and waved her hand: "What's the matter, I don't know you, there's no Miss Chen here, hurry up." ”

The maid was pushed down the steps by her, and was about to pinch her waist to quarrel with her, when a lingering voice sounded in the sedan chair parked in the corner: "It's me, Miss Xiao." Gu Mengying lifted the curtain from the sedan chair.

Xiao Hongye looked at her rather grand dress, sneered, and said in her heart that she was here to provoke the demonstration, so she snorted very unkindly: "It turned out to be Mrs. Lin, I don't know what you have to do?" ”

Gu Mengying took a step forward and smiled gently, "Can I meet your young lady?" ”

Xiao Hongye replied with a smirk, stepped back, grabbed the door bolt, and was about to close the door: "My young lady is not here today, you can come back another day." ”

Gu Mengying blocked the crack in the door and pleaded repeatedly, wanting to see Chen Siyu.

Xiao Hongye ignored her and continued to close the door, the maid also came to help, and the three of them were at a stalemate, and Chen Siyu's calm and calm voice came from the courtyard: "Hongye, please invite Mrs. Lin in." Her voice was not loud but clear, not fierce but with a sense of majesty in it.

Xiao Hongye unwillingly threw open the door and made an extremely ugly face to them, the little girl was young and vigorous, and she was angry and wanted to fight with her with the momentum of a cockfight. Gu Mengying was magnanimous, but she was not sensible.

Xiao Hongye didn't let her love, turned around and went back to the kitchen, all of this was seen by Chen Siyu, who was sitting facing the door, but she turned a blind eye and completely connived at Xiao Hongye's arrogant and presumptuous attitude.

The maid was not light, and she knew that Chen Siyu was definitely not a weak person like Miss who could deal with it, so she stood in front of Chen Siyu, a vicious eagle, like a hen protecting a chicken.

Chen Siyu's face did not change, his smile was still the same, he sat upright, and only made a gesture to invite Gu Mengying to take a seat: "The room is shabby, and there is no good tea to entertain, please forgive me." Although she said this, she sat motionless, and her attitude was extremely sluggish.

The maid wanted to say a few words to her, but Gu Mengying blamed her for not having rules and ordered her to wait in the courtyard, and then said politely with an unchanged smile: "It's okay, I'm not here to taste tea, don't be busy." ”

Chen Siyu really couldn't stand her hypocritical appearance, she was obviously gritting her teeth with hatred in her heart, and she had to pretend to be kind and gentle on her face. It's better to tear the skin of the face and crispy it. She didn't have the energy and mood to accompany her to do enough superficial articles, so she went straight to the point: "Then we won't say polite words and go around the corner." Mrs. Lin, we have no personal relationship before, and this is the first time we have met, so I want you to come to me for Lin Risheng. ”

Gu Mengying's apricot eyes turned around on her, and saw that although she was wearing plain clothes and no jewelry, she could still have her cheeks like a peach without powder, and her texture was as delicate as snow, pretty and colorful, and delicate. On the other hand, she has a golden jade and a golden lotus crested head, but it is complicated and cumbersome, not as natural and naïve as her, and she is cowardly, but she still maintains a smile with good literacy, and praises: "Miss Chen is a person who has seen the world, she is really very refreshing, not twisted, I don't know how to phrase it, you opened your mouth first." ”

Chen Siyu discarded the fancy words in her business dealings, and laughed bluntly: "I am happy because I am open in my heart and have a clear conscience, if you use the identity of the main room of the Lin Mansion to catch the traitor of your husband's outer room, then you are very wrong." She deliberately said something ugly to embarrass her, just to force her to be angry and angry, to reveal her jealous nature wrapped in the appearance of elegance and cultivation.

Who knew that Gu Mengying was like a ragdoll without a temper, no matter how maliciously she teased, she still smiled timidly: "Don't say that you are not, even if you are me, you are not such a jealous woman who can't tolerate people." ”

Speaking better than singing, Chen Siyu pursed his lips, secretly disdainful in his heart, and his words were even more mean: "Interesting, Miss Gu, I am not a deep lady like you, I have grown up in the battle between concubines and wives and concubines since I was a child." I can count money when I can speak, I can count accounts when I can read, and I can boast that I have met more people and visited more places than you read. You don't have to play with your heart in front of me, Lin Risheng is your husband, and you can't tolerate me if you have a little affection for him. ”

Gu Mengying said sincerely: "No, I really came to invite you." ”

Chen Siyu sneered: "Please let me leave, don't worry, when Grandpa's case is over, I will automatically leave without you inviting me." ”

Gu Mengying hurriedly defended: "No, I invited you into the house, in the future, we will take care of Xianggong together, regardless of size, I recognize you as a sister, do you think you are optimistic?" ”

Chen Siyu was stunned, as if she had heard a big joke, shook her head and laughed, and deliberately threatened her: "Jealousy really makes people unscrupulous, Miss Gu, look at your weak book, it seems that you will not be fierce." Our matter was told to you by your brother, I think I must be a demon daughter who specializes in seducing people in his mouth, you are not afraid of luring wolves into the house, one day I will learn from Zhao Feiyan to kill you, this class Jieyu? ”

Gu Mengying's cheeks flushed, hesitated for a moment, stared at her with a pair of innocent and harmless beautiful eyes, and held her hand earnestly: "To be honest, I was also worried, worried that I wouldn't get along with you properly. But I can see him continue to be depressed. He was not happy to live with me, but since you came, although his sadness has not diminished, his smile has increased, and he is like a dead tree in spring. He has you in his heart, if he can make him happy, what does it matter if we live together, Empress E's daughter is also a good story. As long as he is happy, I am willing to give everything, I will treat you like a sister, as long as you are willing to enter the house, I will never be embarrassed by you, nor will I be jealous or angry, we will get along as a family in the future, isn't it? ”

Her eyes were as clean as ice springs on the mountains, and Chen Siyu looked at her as if she was looking at a child. The simplicity and immaturity of her words, the lack of deep scheming at all, the heartfelt excitement, the sad tears in her eyes, and the lonely and lonely look made people feel distressed, and she could not continue to brutally hit her like an enemy. She trembled like a lost deer, begging for her soft-hearted rescue, and like Lin Risheng, she couldn't beat or scold, and couldn't love her.

In the face of them, her combat power suddenly disappeared, and she had to disarm and surrender. She is also a person who eats soft rather than hard. She let out a long sigh, and the whole person suddenly collapsed from a hedgehog with steel thorns to defend against the enemy: "Lin Risheng married you, it is his blessing." With you taking care of him, I am also relieved. ”

Gu Mengxiang listened carefully to her every word as if she was a student, she was very relieved that she was not that kind of vicious person, and she was also proud of her nobility and persistence: "Remember what I said, never say such things, and never give him to others, he is yours, your husband." You are generous enough to work with others, but I can't. My backbone and pride do not allow me to be such a lowly person, otherwise I would have looked down on myself. ”

"How can you trust my sincerity?" Gu Mengying was a little anxious and asked eagerly.

Chen Siyu comforted her and said, "I believe, if you don't believe it, I won't tell you this." ”

Although she seemed to be helpless in accepting her fate, she also had the open-mindedness when she let go, she indifferently told the true feelings in her heart, and she also moved Gu Mengying: "I like him and want to marry him, but he can't marry me, that's it, I won't follow him with a dead face, and I won't go to great lengths to break you up, let alone try to squeeze into you." If your husband is not happy and happy, you have to find a way to understand his sorrows and share his worries, instead of holding back and putting your husband on others, as long as you put your heart into it, you will not lose him. He is a soft-hearted and kind-hearted person, and one day he will be touched by your sincerity. ”

Gu Mengying knew that if she forced Chen Siyu to stay in the Lin Mansion, not only would she not be able to fulfill the affection between the two of them, but she would not be able to complete her virtuousness, but she would use her own affectionate kindness to weave an emotional net to trap them and lock herself. She also sighed, feeling sorry for her and pitying herself: "Miss Chen, you tell me this, what about you?" ”

Chen Siyu smiled mischievously and joked: "I ask myself that you don't have to be inferior in appearance and talent, can't you find someone better than your husband." ”

Gu Mengying couldn't hold back her laughter, felt closer and closer to her, and sighed: "You are such a brave and strong girl, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to live." ”

Chen Siyu smiled with relief and made the most wonderful annotation for Gu Mengying's life: "That's because I'm different from you, I still have a grandfather, a family, and friends, and your world is only him." ”

But the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear. It's always easier to see through others than through yourself.
