34. Chapter 34

In the Linglong Mountain Pavilion late at night, Shen Yan was lying in the quilt, her mind was complicated.

At this time last night, she only had the shadows of Zheng Xun and Shen Ming in her mind, and tonight, another shadow suddenly broke inβ€”Xu Yan.

She only came back after she walked out of the Lingering Garden, and she didn't think about the ups and downs of her feelings at that time, and the more she thought about it now, the more restless she became.

Xu Yan would hug her? What does that mean? Is it just comfort? But his posture and voice at that time were clearly ...... Shen Yu is not a little milk baby who doesn't understand people, and at this time, she only thinks that one head and two are big.

No matter what, in her past and present lives, she was just a girl who had never been in love, even if she was unscrupulous with Uncle Dong when she was laughing, she rarely had physical contact, let alone hugged each other like this.

In retrospect, the first contact with Xu Yan was in the Zheng Family Library, when she almost fell to the ground, she was grabbed by his waist and taken into his arms; The second time was in Chiayi, when she fell off a boulder, Xu Yan rescued her from the water and helped her deal with the injury on her leg. Those two times were forced by the situation, and there is nothing wrong with it, but what about this time......

Shen Yu gradually felt that her face was heating up.

She remembered the "hallucination" of the night in the Lingering Garden, what did she think...... Is King Duan interested in her?

Uh, think too much!

Shen Yu suddenly turned over and buried her head in the quilt, trying to drive away those annoying thoughts. Before the sound of the brocade quilt stopped, I heard Mrs. Shen's smiling voice come from the next time, "Auntie, what's the matter, the tantrum?" There can be such a big movement when you turn over! ”

"Mother?" Shen Yan turned her head and found that Mrs. Shen had walked in, and Shi Nan behind her was carrying a small brocade box in her hand. The heat on her face had not yet receded, and she didn't dare to tell her honestly, so she had to lie again with her conscience, "I can't sleep with my eyes open all the time, and that's why I'm irritable and turn over." Mother, did you just come back, why don't you rest? ”

"Don't worry about your voice, come and see." Mrs. Shen sat down beside her, stretched out her hand and touched Shen Yan's slightly hot face, "Don't put your head in the quilt anymore, beware of dizziness, look at this hot face." As he spoke, he took the brocade box from Shi Nan's hand and handed it to Shen Yan, "This is given to you by Zhen'er, so don't be too sad." ”

Shen Yu took it, but she didn't rush to open it, and asked Mrs. Shen, "Are you going to your aunt's house?" ”

"Today, Mr. Zheng's affairs are handled in the yamen, and I will go by the way."

"Mr. Zheng's business...... What's going on? ”

"After the study building caught fire, it burned down two houses next to it, and Mr. Zheng was buried in the fire and injured people, and the government is investigating."

"No results?"

Mrs. Shen said helplessly: "Even if there is a result, where will they sue me?" However, I listened to your uncle's tone, and Xue Wanrong was involved in the investigation, so I asked him to discuss this matter with the inspector, and I am afraid that this matter will be heard by the heavens. ”

When Shen Yu heard this, her heart was a little relieved.

Zheng Xun's death is indeed regrettable, they can't save his life, so they can only help fulfill their last wishes. Xu Yan's recital should arrive in the capital first, and Jiang Wenying's recital will then go to the imperial case...... Although Shen Yan didn't understand the temperament of the Son of Heaven, if she thought that Xu Yan had arranged it, Xue Wanrong would definitely not be able to ask for anything.

Xue Wanrong has done a lot of evil, this time he can't escape a capital crime!

As soon as Shen Yu sighed here, she heard Mrs. Shen purse her lips and say, "Today, your aunt mentioned a person to me, and he should immediately hand over the post of worship after arriving in Luling in a few days, and you will probably want to meet him." ”

"Who?" Shen Yu was curious.

"Zhu Yun."

Zhu ...... Zhu Yun! Shen Yu instantly understood the meaning of Mrs. Shen's words, and was immediately embarrassed, and said, "I don't see him!" ”

Mrs. Shen seemed to have guessed Shen Yu's reaction, but she just looked at her and smiled, and said in a low voice: "It's already a big girl, what are you shy." Although Zhu Yun has been in the capital for three years, I can see the meaning of his letter, the person has not changed at all, and his mind is the same. Hey, I've been worried for so long, and now I can breathe down. ”

"Mother!" Shen Yu immediately interrupted, "Are you planning to sell me to Zhu Yun?" ”

"How could you talk like that?" Mrs. Shen was annoyed and took out a letter from her sleeve, "This is a letter he wrote to your father, the meaning is clear." He is about to be transferred to our fellow acquaintance of Luling, which is really rare at this age, and you also know that Lu Zhi's friendship with his family will not be bumpy in the future. As for him, although he has escaped a little, he is sincere and treats people well, and he really can't find it with a lantern. ”

…… Shen Yan listened to her praise and wanted to cry without tears.

Jumping out, Zhu Yun is more than just jumping out!

And she and Zhu Yun also have constant personal grievances, if you want to talk about marriage, it is really unimaginable.

Shen Yan sighed speechlessly, knowing that she couldn't dispel Mrs. Shen's thoughts at this time no matter what, so she had to say: "Everyone hasn't arrived yet, mother, your abacus is crackling." It's getting late, so let's rest early. So he got out of the bed, put on a dress, and sent Mrs. Shen back to rest.

When she returned to the bed, Shen Yan's head was bigger.

That Zhu Yun ...... Thinking of that smiling and uninhibited face, Shen Yu wanted to reach out and slap him twice.

Zhu Yun is seven years older than her, and Shen Yu has known him when she was four years old, and it has been ten years.

When I first met, Zhu Yun was just a schoolboy, because of his intelligence and understanding, he was deeply loved by Shen Ping, and later worshiped Shen Ping as a teacher and learned calligraphy, so he often studied with Shen Ming.

Shen Yu loved to pester Shen Ming to play at that time, so she didn't toss Zhu Yun a lot, if sometimes Shen Ming was not available, Zhu Yun would accompany her to play farke.

However, Zhu Yun's temperament is completely different from Shen Ming's, he was very stubborn when he was young, and although he later accepted his temperament, he still jumped out of naughtiness. used to take Shen Yu to climb the rockery to play, and almost broke her leg.

As she grew older, Zhu Yun became more and more fond of teasing Shen Yan. However, Shen Yan is not really a five or six-year-old girl, she can't fight with her arms, legs and feet, but she is even more powerful than Zhu Yun in terms of intelligence and insight, Zhu Yun can't get cheap several times, but she is not discouraged at all, the more frustrated she is, the more courageous she becomes, and she has to come to Shen's house to tease Shen Yu if she has nothing to do.

Others are also clever, and when they are sixteen or seventeen years old, they can already bargain for Shen Yan.

Shen Yu loved and hated this brother when she was a child, and she worked hard to deal with it, and most of them blew their noses and glared at each other.

thought that he would form an enmity with him like this, but who knew that when Shen Yan was nine years old, Zhu Yun, who was already sixteen, refused the family affairs arranged by the family, and actually ran to Shen Ping, saying that he wanted to marry Shen Yan as his wife!

Of course, Shen Ping did not agree to this on the grounds that Shen Yu was still young.

And when Shen Yu heard the news, her mood could only be described as shock.

Then, he avoided Zhu Yun like a plague.

At that time, Zhu Yun's talent and learning had been quite praised, and when he was eighteen years old, he won the Jinshi in one fell swoop, although he did not have the scenery of the top spot, but he also entered the Hanlin Academy under the arrangement of the teacher, but he was promoted to the seventh grade of the editor, and then he practiced for a while in the Jingzhao Yamen, and this time he was directly promoted to the same knowledge from the fifth grade, which is also rare.

Zhu Yun was taught by Shen Ping when he was a child, and because he was a brother and sister to Shen Ming, he also had a very close relationship with the Shen family, and he had intermittent correspondence with Shen Ping over the years, and Shen Ping and his wife praised him.

Before, Shen Ping and his wife thought that Zhu Yun would stay as a Beijing official, so they didn't think about anything else, this time Zhu Yun came to Luling as an official, and the letter clearly mentioned the old things, where could Mrs. Shen not be moved?

Shen Yan thought about these, and became more and more unable to fall asleep, and lay down with her eyes open until the second half of the night, before falling asleep.

Because Shen Yu was too frightened that night and hurt her throat, Mrs. Shen asked her to recuperate at home for two days before she was willing to let her out.

Shen Yan hasn't rested well in the past few days, and her spirit was a little wilted when she went to the academy.

Although Xue Wanrong could not preside over the affairs because of Zheng Xun's affairs, the matter of soliciting books was still carried out in an orderly manner. There are many bibliophiles in the Luling area, and at this time they have dedicated three or four thousand kinds of books that have not been collected by the academy and the government, and they are all placed in the small courtyard behind the Jingzhao Pavilion after sorting them out, and they are carefully collected.

Of course, these books will not be used directly, but will be transcribed by the students for the purpose of compiling and revising the "Great Canon", and the original copies will be returned to the donor.

Because of the complexity of the contents and the uneven quality of these books, after they are gathered, they must first be selected, and valuable copies should be selected for later use, and the rest will only be recorded, and then a detailed bibliography will be drawn up by a special person.

Shen Yu's talent is limited, and if she wants to specialize in bibliography, she is not as good as the older scholars; Although the calligraphy is not bad, the daughter's handwriting is beautiful, and it is difficult to meet the requirements, so she is not needed for these two items.

However, there is one thing that she is difficult to compare with others, and that is classification.

I have studied the collection of books with Shen Ping for more than ten years, and I have visited many famous book collectors over the years, but all the purchases, identifications, decorations, displays, copying and supplementing biographies related to the collection, as well as collections, inscriptions, and imprints, Shen Yu has been involved, and the most important thing is that the Shen family has a collection of 100,000 volumes, and those books are stored in different categories.

The most important thing after she arrived at Jingzhao Pavilion was to help determine the category of books, and occasionally help write a simple bibliography.

There are many unique books in these books, which Shen Yu has never seen before, some books have been hidden from generation to generation, and there are many inscriptions and imprints of famous artists on them, and those book seals are like a piece of history, which makes people addicted.

Shen Yu likes these, and comes over to help very diligently every day, and has some long-term plans.

At this time, she was holding a copy of "Confucius's Family Sayings", the category of this book is very certain, but because there is a precious folded jade seal on the book, it is extremely valuable, and there are now fourteen or fifteen seals. This is Dong Shujin's father Dong Zhen presented, it is said that it was purchased at the price of thousands of taels at that time, and the book cover was specially made and stored in a brocade box, which is very precious.

Shen Yu flipped through carefully, quite a bit of a feeling of "public fat and private".

It was cloudy and dark outside, and I thought it was going to be a good rain, and the light inside was like a bean, and it was delightful to read a book slowly. She was secretly rejoicing, and suddenly felt that the light in front of her was dim, and when she looked up, she saw that Xu Yan was already standing in front of her case, looking down at her, her eyes were burning, and there was a faint smile.

I haven't seen each other for a few days, and now that we meet again, Shen Yan's heart jumps for no reason.
