After Xu Yan's death, the East Palace was indeed very depressed for a while, and everyone knew that they were childhood sweethearts, and it was normal for him to be like this, so it was human nature that he couldn't help but persuade him.

On this day, Mrs. Lu finished teaching him, and seeing that he was still depressed, he thought about it and said to him: "The minister knows that His Royal Highness and Xu Liangdi are in love, but the deceased are gone, and the living should also learn to let go." ”

Xiao Cong was silent for a while before saying, "Teacher, there are no relatives around me. My aunt is gone, my mother is gone, and now even Ah Yan is gone, and Lingxi is about to go to the fiefdom, by my side... There are no relatives left. ”

When Mrs. Lu heard this, she was distressed, but she still groaned: "Your Highness, do you know why the mourning period is set in the ancient ceremony?" ”

Xiao Cong looked at him and repeated a little blankly, "The period of mourning clothes? ”

"The period of mourning clothes is the period of mourning set by the ancients for themselves, in that time, no matter how much pain is too much, but once that time is over, you should come out of your grief and do what you should do."

Xiao Cong smiled miserably: "After my mother left, I didn't mourn for her for a day, and when Ah Yan left, I wasn't around, Taifu thinks, how long is my mourning period?" ”

Mrs. Lu suddenly bowed down and arched his hand, and said quietly: "The filial son mourns for his mother, for a period of three years, and the husband mourns for his wife, only for a year. ”

Xiao Cong thought for a long time and laughed at himself: "The student is ashamed, please teach the teacher." ”

Mrs. Lu said, "No." Seeing Xiao Cong's puzzled face, he said again: "In the ancient rites, there is no relevant ritual, so," he said word by word: "The prince of the country, since he is worshiped by the world, he can only take the world as his own responsibility at all times, regard all the people as his own son, and cannot be neglected by one person." ”

When Xiao Cong heard this, he lowered his eyes and was silent, and when Mrs. Lu saw him like this, he couldn't bear it in his heart, so he was also silent and bowed and said goodbye.

After he left, Xiao Cong held his forehead alone and wept for a long time. When they saw each other again two or three days later, Mrs. Lu was shocked to find that he had regained his former gentleness and calmness, so he was very pleased.

Only Jingyi, the person next to the pillow, knows, even after that, he always has a gentle smile on his lips, but in his eyes, there is more sadness that others can't see.

Even the young Lingxi faintly felt that his brother was different from before, as for the difference, she couldn't tell, probably the most obvious point is that he used to like to participate in the poetry meetings of the bachelors, although he knew that his poems were not very good, but when the interest came, he could also get one or two acceptable poems, but now, although he occasionally participates in poetry meetings, he no longer composes poems.

Shen Yun doesn't write poems or fill in the lyrics anymore, even if he accompanies those sons and brothers to sing the wind and the moon, he casually chooses some good sentences from his predecessors and echoes them, just perfunctory in the past.

On this day, she was a little unwell, she had already taken leave with her sister-in-law, and was going to rest alone in the room, but who knew that at night, the girl next to Du Yue'er suddenly came, saying that she was going to ask her to save the scene, Shen Yun hurriedly asked what was going on, and the little maid said: "The moon lady was supposed to accompany Qiu Gongzi well, but suddenly there was a Pei Shiyu Pei Gongzi, drink wine and drink bars, and he has to do the flying flower order, he himself is like this poetry collection, of course it's nothing, but how can the moon lady fight him," she said, He lowered his voice and said: "If you want to say that on weekdays, such a situation is just taken advantage of by them, but when the moon lady went to change clothes, she saw that her monthly letter suddenly arrived, last time she was because she drank too much in the monthly letter, and it took more than half a month to stop, this time I didn't dare to do it again, and I had to let the slave come and ask the snow lady to save the scene." ”

Shen Yun heard this, and said with a faint smile: "I know, you go first, I'll come later." As she spoke, she opened her makeup and prepared to make up.

When she packed up and walked outside Du Yue'er's room, she heard a young man inside: "The desert sand is like snow, and the moon in Yanshan is like a hook." After a moment of silence, those people laughed and said, "The moon lady is not connected again, and she should be punished." ”

Shen Yun thought for a while, sighed, and pushed the door in, and said loudly: "Young Master Qiu is here, why don't you call the slave family." ”

When the people inside heard this, they all turned their heads to look at her, and when Qiu Gongzi saw that it was her, he said strangely: "Didn't you say to your sister-in-law that Snow Lady is unwell today?" ”

Shen Yun smiled and said, "No matter how unwell the slave is, I heard that Qiu Gongzi is here, and I must come to accompany him." ”

As he spoke, he walked to Du Yue'er, who was already a little confused and reclining on Qiu Gongzi's body, put on her slippery coat, and said to the previous girl: "Yue Niangzi is drunk, help her out to wake up the bar." The girl wanted to help Du Yue'er up, but was stopped by Qiu Gongzi: "No, no, the poem of Yue Niangzi has not been connected yet." You'll have to drink this cup first. And he poured her wine again.

Shen Yun stretched out his slender hand to take the wine and drank it all, frowned lightly, endured a churning in his heart and said: "This cup of slave for the moon lady has drunk, let's come back again." ”

She hadn't eaten much since the morning today, and she really didn't want to drink a drop of wine at this time, but there was nothing she could do now.

When Gongzi Qiu heard this, he let Du Yue'er go for the time being, and said to Shen Yun instead: "The lady is late, she has to punish herself again." As he spoke, he poured another full glass of wine and handed it to her.

Shen Yun listened, didn't say much, raised the cup and was about to drink, but his hand was suddenly held by Pei Shiyu, who was sitting on the other side, and he only heard him say: "This cup is still drinking for the lady." So saying, he took her into his arms, and drank the wine from the cup with her hand.

When everyone saw it, they laughed and said, "That's not good, the prince has to drink three cups if he wants to drink." ”

Pei Shiyu just smiled when he heard this, and then he still poured two cups in a row with Shen Yun's hand, and drank them one by one, and then said to everyone: "Since the Snow Lady has changed here now, then let's change the title." Let's take the word 'snow' as the title. When he said this, he only looked at Shen Yun affectionately, and Shen Yun just felt funny in his heart, she had been in the teaching department for so many years, and this kind of flirtatious person had already seen a lot, so she quietly broke free from his arms, and only looked at him with a smile.

When Qiu Gongzi heard this, he thought about it and said: "Why do you want to say goodbye to you in the snow, there are only green pine branches." ”

Shen Yun said lightly: "Bai Xueguan is far away from the mountains, and Huang Yunhai is fascinated. ”

That Pei Shiyu still looked at her steadily: "Snow on the river, independent fisherman." ”

The people behind answered a few more words, and there were also those who didn't answer and punished the wine, and after a while, it was Shen Yun's turn again, and she continued: "Look down for fear that the dansha will fall, and the wings are often wiped out with snow." ”

Pei Shiyu smiled slightly: "Thousands of miles of empty water soul, ten thousand branches of broken nose and fragrant snow." ”

After a few more rounds, everyone had drunk, but Shen Yun and Pei Shiyu were stunned and didn't take another sip of wine, and in the end, everyone just looked at the two of them in amazement.

"There is a lot of snow, covering the door, and people can't help but keep their souls, and they lose Jiang Meiyun."

"Spring snow is full of air, and the touch is like a flower."

"The sea breeze is cold after the snow in the Tianshan Mountains, and it is difficult to travel with the horizontal flute."

"Gradually autumn, the snow is clear and thin, and it is infinitely dependent on people."

"It's snowing outside the window, hugging the stove and opening the wine vat."

......

In the end, Qiu Gongzi couldn't help it, and interrupted them: "Okay, okay, you two are powerful, we people are willing to bow down, okay?" It's not over yet. ”

The two of them listened, looked at each other and smiled, and at this time one of the people in the seat said: "Why don't we join the pair to play, the person who comes out of the upper link designates the right person, and if you can't come out, you will drink." If the right one comes out, the right one will drink. ”

Qiu Gongzi was happy when he heard it, "Okay, then I'll go out first, listen to it: Haixia is born with the rising sun." After speaking, he arched his hand to Shen Yun.

Shen Yun replied without thinking about it: "The mountains are green and the sky is clear." ”

Another person said: "The strings are wonderful." He also bowed to Shen Yun.

Shen Yun rolled his eyes in his heart: "Send romance in the song." ”

After that, those people took turns to embarrass her, and their purpose was actually very simple, how could they take advantage of her if they didn't get her drunk.

It's a pity that they all miscalculated, Shen Yun answered for a long time, and they didn't take a sip of wine, but they were drunk one by one.

She was actually very irritable, her body was already unwell, and she had been with these stupid things for a long time, and the fire in her heart was almost uncontrollable, so she chuckled and said: "The slave also thought of a few upper links, but for a while he didn't get the lower ones, please help me take a look." After speaking, he reported three or four in one breath:

"The Big Dipper, the bottom of the water is fourteen o'clock;

Independent small bridge, the figure does not flow to the river;

Move the chair and lean on the same moon;

The underwater day is the heavenly day. ”

Those people listened, scratched their ears and cheeks and thought for a long time, their faces were flushed, but they still didn't come up with a reason, Shen Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but at this time, Pei Shiyu, who had not spoken just now, said: "The Big Dipper, the bottom of the water is fourteen o'clock; The lonely goose in the south building, with a pair of shadows flying in the middle of the month. ”

When Shen Yun heard this, he had to grit his teeth and take a drink from the wine glass, and his heart was churning again.

Seeing this, Pei Shiyu said again: "Independent small bridge, the figure does not flow into the river; Lonely Sleep Hotel, Dream Soul once came to his hometown. ”

After listening to him, Shen Yun had to pour himself another drink, and felt that his eyelids were astringent and his head was heavy.

Pei Shiyu continued: "Move the chair and lean on the same moon; Wait for the lamp to go to the pavilion to attack the book. ”

Shen Yun was helpless, so he had to drink another glass, and his head sank even more, and he couldn't help but think with some regret, alas, impulse is the devil.

Pei Shiyu saw it, and said: "The underwater day is the heavenly day; As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and gently lifted her chin, looked directly into her eyes and said, "The person in the eye is the person in front of you." After finishing speaking, he took a sip of wine, but he didn't swallow it, but covered his lips and fed the wine into her mouth, Shen Yun only felt a buzzing in his head, and as soon as his body was light, he was hugged horizontally, led by the envoy, and went to his room.

What happened next doesn't need to be detailed.

However, Pei Shiyu didn't take advantage of it in vain, she gave her head very generously, and she also deliberately gave Shen Yun a box of things, she looked through it, there were all kinds of things in it, there was everything. Everything else was fine, but the few books and some good paper, pen and ink inkstones made her feel a little surprised. Just as she was about to test the pen, Du Yue'er came, and when she entered the door, she took her hand and said, "Thank you for helping me out yesterday." ”

Shen Yun smiled and said, "Sister Yue'er didn't relieve me less in the past?" She said, pointing to the big box on the ground, "Besides, aren't I still crooked?" ”

When Du Yue'er heard this, she also smiled, and the two sat and gossiped, and Yue'er went back.

After she left, Shen Yun sat alone under the window and posted it, thinking while writing, this incident is a lesson, first of all, you can't underestimate these sons, and secondly, you still have to practice again because of your own drinking.

She was so cranky that before she knew it, it was dusk again, so she had to cheer up and dress up, waiting for the guests to roll out the nameplate.

After waiting for this, he waited for Pei Shiyu again, and without thinking about it, he directly ordered Shen Yun's famous brand, for this kind of generous master, how could Xiang Yanyu not like it, and immediately happily personally led him to Shen Yun's room, and kept telling her to serve her well.

So after chatting about some ups and downs, naturally, Shen Yun could only greet him again.

For several days after that, he came to the teaching department every day to report, and only ordered Shen Yun's famous brand, at first everyone didn't care too much, after all, this situation was not unheard of before, a person like Shen Yun, if there would be a man who was fascinated by her and scattered all his money, everyone really didn't think it was a strange thing, besides, after all, the family was a royal businessman, and some were silver envoys, what is this, where do you want them to help worry about it.

However, Pei Shiyu's next move really surprised everyone.

On that day, he came to the Teaching Department to report on time as usual, but was told that the Snow Lady had been "inconvenient" these days, and even the name plate had been removed.

At that time, he was out of breath, saw her, took her hand and asked, "Xue'er, would you like to go with me." ”

Shen Yun was a little stunned for a while, and suddenly thought of Su Huaijin for no reason, so he nodded in a ghostly manner.

When Pei Shiyu saw it, he was overjoyed and said to her: "Wait for me." "A gust of wind went away.

After he left, Shen Yun came back to his senses after a long time, and sighed with a chuckle: "What kind of wind is this?" He threw away his hand and stopped thinking about it.

Who knew that a few days later, Pei Shiyu sent someone to deliver another box, and Shen Yun was really stunned when he opened it.

Inside is a set of red wedding dresses and hair crown jewelry made of red gold.

Du Yue'er happened to be there at that time, and after reading it, she had mixed feelings in her heart, said congratulations to Shen Yun, and left by herself.

Shen Yun still felt quite confused, and saw that there was a letter to himself inside, so he opened it and looked at it.

"Xue'er Qingqing is like meeting, since I and you have parted, it has been more than seven days, the old saying has clouds, not seen for a day, such as every three autumns. I haven't seen you for seven days, how many years should I be? However, after my unremitting running in recent days, the matter of redeeming your body has been certain, Qing should sweep the moth eyebrows, comb the cicada, if there is no accident, I will come to greet me on the sixth day of the next month, and the son will return, and it is appropriate to live at IKEA. Shi Yu paused. ”

When Shen Yun saw the first sentence, she was already in tears, for many years, no one had called her Qingqing.

So, on the first night of the sixth day of the new year, she bathed in incense, put on her wedding dress, tied up her hair crown, and waited from dark until dawn, and then waited until dawn, but she never waited for that beloved.

She listened to the drum three times, then burst into tears, and muttered to Du Yue'er, who was accompanying her: "He said that if there is no accident, he will come to greet him, but now, what happened to him?" ”

In fact, there was no accident, after Pei Shiyu left that day, he went to tell his cousin Wen An and asked him to help find a way to get Xue'er out of the teaching department.

Wen An listened to his narration, spread his hands, and said, "What can I do?" If it is an ordinary Qing person, it is a big deal to spend more money and redeem it, but you have said that she is an official slave and has become a lowly citizen, who can change this. You still want to go home and see if your aunt doesn't kill you. ”

Pei Shiyu couldn't, so he had to go back to his mother to make trouble, and finally went on a hunger strike in a fake way, his father left early, his mother took pity on him, and he had always been obedient to him, but this time he was also troubled by him, so he had no choice but to find his sister and say: "Hasn't Zi Zhan been serving under the East Palace?" Can't you let him go to the East Palace? Wen An's mother was so entangled by her that she couldn't do anything, so she had to make a shy face and let her son find a way.

Wen An is a filial son, and his mother opened her mouth, so she had to run to beg Xiao Cong.

Xiao Cong listened, pondered for a moment, and said to him: "I know, you go and ask for a detailed account of the little lady, and the palace will let the people from the household registration office find a way." ”

But before Wen An could hand Shen Yun's file to Xiao Cong, Pei Shiyu and their family changed their minds.

Here's the thing.

After the Pei family sent the wedding dress and jewelry, they asked Shen Yun for the birth date and asked Mr. Yin and Yang to calculate it, and the gentleman said that it was very good, he was a rich and noble prosperous man, and everyone was naturally very happy when he heard it. Pei Shiyu's mother was still not at ease for some reason, so she found a Mai god to see her secretly, thinking that it would be safer to meet her again. Who knew that after the god looked at her face, he came back and said to the Pei family: "This little lady can't be married." ”

Pei Shiyu was anxious when he heard it, "Why does Mr. Yin Yang say that she is a prosperous husband, and she can't marry you here." ”

The look said quietly: "The son doesn't know, this little lady is indeed a prosperous husband, but it is too prosperous, you can't afford it, if you forcibly marry back, I am afraid that your family will not be at peace from now on, and if it is not good, it will be difficult to protect the life of the family." ”

That Pei Shiyu's mother listened, where did she dare to welcome her in, no matter how much trouble Xiao Pei had, she resolutely refused to let him see her again, that Xiao Pei was not an iron-clad person, and after making trouble for a while, it had no effect, so she threw away her hand and went to find a new love.

It was Xiao Cong, thinking that Wen An begged himself seriously, but there was no follow-up, and he asked a few questions. Wen An told the truth, and he sighed after listening to it: "A good story, but lost to the ghost and god, but I just pity that woman, empty joy, you should also compensate for others." ”

Pei Shiyu's mother thought about it, so she asked her family to prepare a large box of gold, silver and jewelry and carry it to the Teaching Division, and asked them to tell Xue Niangzi that they couldn't marry her, and it was Xiao Pei's own blessing.

At that time, she had already changed her wedding dress and untied the hairpin ring, and when she heard the words, she was silent and blessed the people who came, so she asked them to carry back the wedding dress and jewelry.

When they left, she distributed all the jewels in the box to everyone in the teaching department, and took out half of the gold and silver and gave it to Du Yue'er, who had been with her all these days. ”

Shen Yun shook his head with a smile and sighed: "I don't love him, I just think that this may be the only chance I can escape from this place, so I will agree to him, although I am repented of my marriage, I don't feel so sad, I just feel embarrassed and a little disappointed." ”

When Du Yue'er heard this, she also smiled, and said a little distractedly: "But also, how can you look down on him." ”

After speaking, the two were silent for a while, and Du Yue'er suddenly looked out the window and muttered, "Xue'er, do you want to hear my story." ”
