Jing Mu can also be regarded as a high-profile return to the imperial capital, after all, no one thought that the child who was sent out by the Dingbei Hou Mansion to ask for guilt would come back as Xie Yuan.

For a while, Jing Mu was also well-known among the sons of the family.

It's just that these have nothing to do with Jing Mu.

Early the next morning, he arrived at Changshu Garden, and went over to ask Mrs. Yu of the Beihou Mansion to relieve her worries.

so as not to end up with a reputation of unfilial piety.

Probably because he went too early, Yu relieved his worries and didn't get up yet.

"Jing Mu came to say hello to his mother, and he was tired of reporting it." Jing Mu said very politely.

"The second son will be reported later, and the slave will go to report."

Jing Mu stood in the garden and waited quietly, hanging his head, looking respectful.

He didn't look around, and there was no impatience on his face.

When Jing Mu was welcomed in by an aunt, it had been a long time.

Jing Mu politely thanked her and followed behind her aunt.

When he entered the room, he saw his mother sitting on the throne, looking graceful and luxurious.

Jing Mu saluted and said, "Jing Mu greets my mother." ”

"Get up."

Jing Mu stood up according to his words, looked at each other in pairs, and didn't know what to say.

"Did my mother sleep well last night?" In order not to make the atmosphere too embarrassing, Jing Mu chose a topic that would not go wrong and asked.

"Okay, what about you?"

"So is my son."

Jing Mu didn't mention anything about the desolation of the courtyard where he used to live, that is, the Moon Shadow Pavilion.

Bringing up these unpleasant topics on the second day of my arrival will inevitably leave a handle on it.

And now, he doesn't really want to make the already unfamiliar relationship more rigid.

He also wanted to try to make amends.

I really didn't have much to say, in order not to make the atmosphere awkward, Jing Mu sat down for a while, and after finishing the process of asking for peace, he said goodbye and left.

"I heard that Jing Mu has arrived?"

"I arrived yesterday, do you want to see the emperor?"

"It's gone." Min Yan put the brush down and put the words aside.

"It's not good for him to be too obviously favored, so be it, send someone to watch more, don't let people bully him." Min Yan commanded lightly.

"I see that I am dying, and I still have the leisure to worry about whether others will be bullied, you are really ......" Song Tingyu came in with the medicine.

"Ayu." Min Yan called.

The chief eunuch who was guarding the side, after Song Tingyu came, retreated quietly with great discernment.

Song Tingyu put the medicine aside on the table and said lightly: "Drink the medicine." ”

Song Tingyu looked at Min Yan, who had been staring at the medicine bowl and had not drunk the medicine for a long time: "Don't worry, it's not a medicine that can prolong your life, it's just that it can make your death less painful." ”

Min Yan sneered: "I just think it's too bitter, and it's a black bowl." ”

"Since you have done it, you have to suffer the consequences, when you connived at Sui Ya, why didn't you think about drinking bitter medicine?" Song Tingyu said without sympathy.

The topic came around here, Min Yan had nothing to say, and honestly drank a bowl of decoction, and after drinking, he turned the bowl over and said, "Look, after drinking, there is not a drop left." ”

"Isn't that how it should be? How? Do you still want rewards? ”

"Ayu, are you still angry?" Min Yan asked very cautiously.

"What do I have to be angry about?" Song Tingyu smiled: "It's you who don't cherish life, not me." ”

"I'm still waiting for you to return to your hometown after you die, it's really boring to stay in the imperial capital all these years. You can't travel the world, and you can't do what you want. ”

"I also want to thank you for giving me freedom."

Min Yan was silent and didn't speak, Song Tingyu had never been so thorny when he talked to him.

After all, he failed a person who really treated him well.

After the results of the Six Sons Rebellion came out, Ah Yu once said something most sincere to him.

He said: "Ayan, I will not have parents, relatives, and lovers in this life, and Cheng Ji and I will never go back to the past." ”

"If that is the case, I will have only one friend left for the rest of my life."

"I often feel lonely, Ayan, if you don't give up, let me stay with you."

"I will protect you, you are my only family!"

When he said this, it coincided with Cheng Qi's wedding, and Song Tingyu was still a cloth cloth at that time.

And then no matter what happened to him, it didn't matter if he was harassed by the ministers, or if he was hurt by Sui Ya.

Song Tingyu has always been with him.

This companion is more than ten years.

"Senior brother, I'm sorry!" Min Yan looked at Song Tingyu with a very serious expression.

"Who is your senior brother? Don't scream. ”

Speaking of which, he and Song Tingyu really don't have a serious brother-in-law relationship.

When he was young and learning art, he was not a Confucian in the palace who had both ability and political integrity.

It's the people of the rivers and lakes.

In order to stay away from the strife in the palace.

also so that he can grow up safely.

At that time, Song Tingyu had just lost his father, and he had no mother since he was a child, and there was no one else to take care of him.

Because his master and Song Tingyu's father were old friends, he kept Song Tingyu by his side to raise him for a period of time.

Song Tingyu did not worship him as a teacher.

Therefore, he and Song Tingyu are not considered serious brothers.

Song Tingyu suddenly smiled: "You don't have to feel sorry for me, you just need to do what you think is right." ”

"The important thing is that you don't leave regrets."

Since I have to take the exam later, I must go to the bookstore. Jing Mu relied on the news collected by Bu Gu and smoothly found the location of the bookstore.

It's about to be spring, and there are a lot of people in the bookstore.

Jing Mu casually walked around the store and found that the books in the bookstore were not like those in southern or northern Xinjiang, and there were very few miscellaneous books.

In addition to selling the Four Books and Five Classics, the compulsory books for the imperial examination, and the policy treatises, there are also many books for people's entertainment.

Jing Mu bought some pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and some books related to Chunqiu, and left the shop.

"Yo, isn't this the second son of Jing Mujing?"

Jing Mu was suddenly stopped by a group of rich and noble brothers, and Jing Mu smiled a little: "What's wrong?" How many people are in trouble? ”

"It's okay, can't you come and have a look?"

"I've only returned to the imperial capital for the second day, so I shouldn't have offended a few people, right?" Jing Mu smiled: "A few people blocked me on the road, what do you want to do?" ”

"It's just that you don't like it, why should you go back to the imperial capital when you are a person who was sent out to ask for sin?"

"Call me ......"

Before the words were finished, several people who were so arrogant that they wanted to beat Jing Mu all fell to the ground.

Jing Mu looked at the dark place, and said in a loud voice: "The girl came in time!" ”

Yuwenxi came out of the shadows: "Originally, I was thinking about how to meet the second son?" I didn't expect to meet the second son being bullied here. ”

"I dare to bully our second son, I'm really tired of it." Yuwenxi saluted and smiled very delicately.

"Will the girl be too ruthless?"

"Will the prince feel ruthless? When you were in southern Xinjiang, Wenxi almost felt that you had no heart. ”

"Now it's Jing Mu."

"Two different identities are the same person, Wen Xi can feel that you have a compassionate heart."

"Don't worry, it's not dead, it's just an ordinary drug."

Jing Mu smiled and said with some kind dissuasion: "Look at the clothes, these people are the sons of the family." If the girl wants their lives, she is afraid that it will not end well. ”

"After all, this is not southern Xinjiang, and the identity of the Yu family is not beneficial to the girl."

Although Yuwenxi has always guarded against Jing Mu and does not deal with him very well, good intentions and malicious intentions can still be distinguished.

Yu Wenxi saluted and said: "Thank you for reminding the second son, when doing things in the future, Wenxi will definitely be careful." ”

"Never cause trouble to the second son."

The reason why Jing Mu gave her this kind advice was nothing more than that she didn't want her to be involved in herself.

Yuwenxi still knows this.

Their relationship is not good enough to think of each other.

"The girl might as well check the identities of these people, after all, I am also a newcomer to the imperial capital, but I arrived a day earlier than the girl, and I haven't had time to offend so many people."

"Yes."

Although he had already ordered Yuwenxi to investigate, Jing Mu did not have much hope for her.

After all, Yuwenxi's duty is to guard him and prevent him from harming the Yu family.

If the person who threatens his life has nothing to do with the Yu family, he can even get rid of him.

It is hard to guarantee that Yuwenxi will not sit idly by.

After all, getting rid of him and not making people suspect the Yu family is probably Yuwenxi's dream all along.

"Let's look it up." After Yuwenxi left, Jing Mu ordered not to be alone.

So impatient?

Jing Mu looked coldly at the unconscious person lying on the ground.

Is it really anyone who can bully him?

If it weren't for the fact that he had just come to the imperial capital, it was out of time, and he really wanted to do it!

It's just that he can't destroy his future for the sake of such a few people.

It's not worth it!

Jing Mu straightened his clothes, which were not too messy, and left with a different face.

As soon as he returned to the Hou Mansion in Dingbei, he hadn't walked back to his yard, and he hadn't even drunk half of the tea, when he saw the little servant stop him and said, "The Hou Ye wants to see you." ”

Jing Mu didn't have any surprises after hearing this, after all, since he entered the Hou Mansion yesterday, until now, he has never seen his father.

Jing Mu followed the little guy to Zang Fengju, and after arriving at the door, the little guy retreated, leaving him alone to knock on the door and go in.

After Jing Mu entered, he saluted honestly and said, "Father." ”

"Are you still used to living at home?"

"Habitual." Jing Mu replied with low eyebrows.

"Do you mean to participate in the Spring Festival?"

"Yes."

"You're still young, and you have to be self-motivated. If you are interested, you can go to the home school to study with other children of the Jing family. ”

"Yes." Jing Mu responded.

"I heard that when you were in Northern Xinjiang, you were quite close to the head of the Cheng family?" Dingbei Hou asked lightly.
