Chapter 439: The Childe and the Girl are a couple
As the sun turned to the evening, Xue Rui, who had been handling the case for days, finally relaxed, sat in the carriage and looked for an opportunity to hold Yu Shu's little hand, until he was thrown away by her.
"I'll go upstairs first." Yu Shu entered the backyard, left Xue Rui, trotted upstairs, drank a pot of tea on the boat, and endured all the way back.
Xue Rui watched her run away, and smiled secretly in his heart, when he got off the boat, he could see that she was in a hurry, but she didn't say a word, and he was embarrassed to ask directly, so he had to ask the coachman to hurry back.
A moment later, Yu Shu changed into clean shoes and socks in the room, sat on the recliner and rested relaxedly, holding the book of "Treasures" in his hand, and wanted to look at it a few times in his free time, pondering the first few practical and easy-to-maintain feng shui treasures, his eyes flashed, and he vaguely had the idea of making money in his heart.
Xue Rui asked her to come and ask her for dinner, Yu Shu was writing a charter in the study, he just got up and didn't want to delay, thinking that it would be good to go all out, so he sent his subordinates away.
In this way, half an hour passed, Xue Rui waited left and right, the food was cold, and he couldn't wait for her, so he went up to call someone in person, and after only saying three words, he coaxed Yu Shu downstairs-
"Who shouted hunger on the way back, and now they are hungry."
"Big brother eats first, I have to write these well."
"Then you write, eat alone, I'll wait for you to come along."
"No, I'm going to be better for a while."
"Don't worry, I'll just sit here, you're busy with yours, don't pay attention to me."
"Let's go, let's eat first."
Xue Rui looked at Yu Shu with a helpless expression, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly. Others don't know her, and with the cruel things she does, she always thinks that she is a person who has no one in her eyes and doesn't eat it, but he knows that she is fine, and that hard-hearted heart is just facing outsiders, and when it comes to "her own people" in her eyes, this girl has always been accommodating, and her heart is not like words.
In other words, it is a blessing to be taken to heart by her.
He thought about it carefully, just looking at the people around Yu Shu, who did not accept her favor, Yu Xiaoxiu had such a good sister to be carefree, Zhao Hui had such a righteous daughter, so that he could change his face and get rid of bad luck, Xia Jiangmin made such a sister in order to stay in Kyoto peacefully, Xin Liu knew such a friend, so he saved his life at the moment of life and death
Also, Jingchen.
If it weren't for her affection and righteousness, accompanying her all the way, this Da'an Daozi would not know where she is, whether she is dead or alive.
When Xue Rui thought of Jing Chen, he was a little unhappy, every time he saw Yu Shu's dead eyes on Jing Chen, he was envious and depressed, as if he had swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and regretted it in his heart. It was obvious that he met her first, but because of a moment of hesitation, he let others get close to the water and get the moon first.
Fortunately, the Taoist priest didn't know the goods, so he turned back in time and snatched the person back, otherwise he didn't know how long he would swallow this bitter water.
After dinner, Yu Shu was not in a hurry to ponder her money-making charter, and seeing that the courtyard was quite cool, she asked people to move tables and chairs, and sat outside with Xue Rui to breathe.
Xue Rui was suspicious of the darkness, so he called Gui Qi to add a few lanterns on the second floor to illuminate the courtyard.
In the morning, there was not enough light rain, and the night became hot again, as if there was a quilt in the sky.
Yu Shu is not afraid of the cold but is very afraid of the heat, and he feels thick when he wears a single blouse, and he misses the days when he could wear short-sleeved shorts, but the ancients had a ritual system here, and men could not expose their hands and feet casually, let alone women.
Xue Rui held a folding fan, and when he saw her gently pulling her neckline, he thoughtfully changed the direction and shook the wind for her.
Yu Shu didn't be polite to him, and leaned towards him, tilting his neck to let the cool breeze get closer, squinting his eyes and looking like he was enjoying it, Xue Rui wanted to laugh, but the movement of shaking the fan in his hand never stopped.
Fluttershy, who was waiting on the sidelines, sees this and turns around and goes upstairs, where she meets Xiaoqing coming down the stairs with a lamp.
"Why are you going?" Xiaoqing asked.
"Go back to the room and find a fan, you see the girl is hot." Fluttershy gestures to the two sitting in the middle of the courtyard.
Xiao Qing glanced over, rolled her eyes, grabbed her, and whispered, "No need to go, isn't the son fanning the girl." ”
Fluttershy glared dryly and said, "How can you let the prince do it, and let the shopkeeper see it later, thinking that we are lazy, and we will be reprimanded afterwards." ”
Xiaoqing looked at the courtyard without impatience, and said to her: "Don't worry, the shopkeeper will definitely not teach us a lesson, if you take a fan at this time, the prince will be unhappy." ”
Fluttershy looks at each other for some reason: "What's this?" ”
"The prince is happy to please the girl, what are you going to do?"
"Huh? What does the prince do to please the girl? ”
Xiaoqing covered her mouth and smiled, scolded her lightly for being a silly girl, then dragged her to the corner of the stairs to a no-man's land, and whispered to her ear:
"Don't you see that the prince and our girl are a couple?"
"Really?!" Fluttershy loses her voice.
"Shhhhhh
Yu Shu was lazy by the little breeze, and was a little sleepy, and was about to say to Xue Rui to go back to the room to rest, when his eyelids were raised, but he saw his eyes over her head and behind her.
Yu Shu turned his head and saw that at the back door, Gui Qi led an official in a gray short robe to step forward.
"Your Excellency."
"What's wrong?"
"Something happened in prison."
Yu Shu's face tensed, and he sat up straight, only afraid that Ji Xingxuan, who was locked up in prison, would have another moth and branches.
Xue Rui also frowned, put down the folding fan in his hand, and said coldly: "Tell me clearly." ”
The official looked left and right, and did not shy away from Yu Shu, lowered his head and said quickly: "The prisoner Ji Xingxuan fell into a coma with a high fever early this morning, and she didn't wake up when she splashed water and salt, probably because of the overdose, and her subordinates were afraid that she would not be able to survive, so I came to ask my lord, do you want to stop the punishment for treatment first." ”
Xue Rui's face changed suddenly, and he scolded: "Excessive punishment? How did you do it? I don't know if this is an important crime of the imperial court, and there must be no accidents without going to court? ”
Ji Xingxuan was actually detained in the prison for two purposes, one was to use torture to interrogate and find out the people behind the scenes, and the other was to guard her thoroughly, so that she would not be killed.
So he told his subordinates from the beginning not to be severely punished, and to keep her life.
The person who came shrank his neck and reported stubbornly: "My lord is aware that according to what the cell boss said, he has always been tortured at his discretion, and he has not applied an overdose, and this prisoner can still resist a few days ago-"
"Okay," Xue Rui interrupted him, stood up and ordered, "Quickly go to Jinguitang to find Lang Zhong, and I'll take a look in the prison." ”
Seeing this, Yu Shu also stood up, stretched out his hand to hold him and said:
"I'll go with you and see."
Xue Rui was about to shake his head, when he saw Yu Shuzheng's face rise and said with a chiseled voice:
"Ji Xingxuan, I know better than you, I'll go with you, if she dares to play tricks, I can give you a reminder."
Yu Shucai didn't believe that Ji Xingxuan's fainting was an accident, she was only afraid that Xue Rui would be careless about her for a while, so she insisted on following him.
Xue Rui hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed to her to go along, and the two quickly changed their clothes and rushed to the prison at night. (To be continued.)
