When the sky was just dawning, Song Wenyu rushed back to the house from the Great Compassion Temple. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Ah Jin wearing a cloak and sitting in the room in a daze. Song Wenyu stopped by the door, first surprised that she was not sleeping on the bed, and when he squinted and looked at Ah Jin from beginning to end, his heart was pinched.

"Ah Jin, are you injured? What the hell is going on? Somewhat flustered, he ran to Ah Jin and crouched down, carefully checking her condition. I saw that her lotus root powder clothes were mottled with blood, and large patches were dotted on her clothes, and even the cracks between her properly trimmed nails were dried blood.

"It's not my blood," Ah Jin set his eyes on Song Wenyu's body, "It's Senior Sister's." ”

Song Wenyu looked at Ah Jin in a daze, and only felt that today's Ah Jin was a little different from usual. When she looked at him, the alienation and hatred in her eyes pierced his heart.

Song Wenyu hugged Ah Jin into his arms and hugged him tightly with all his strength.

"You all know what happened in the Zhu Mansion," Ah Jin's pleasant voice sounded in his ears, and the calmer her tone, the more uneasy Song Wenyu's heart became.

"As soon as I returned to the royal capital with Prince Run, I heard about it," Song Wenyu replied. In fact, he didn't just hear about it, he knew the whole thing. Not long after he stepped into the city gate, Zuo Langwei came to look for him and took him to see Luo Teng.

"Shouldn't Zhu Liangdong be dead, why are there so many people protecting him," Ah Jin said, his hands hanging at his side suddenly moved. Song Wenyu clearly felt that she was pushing herself out of his arms little by little. Song Wenyu silently encircled her in his arms, unwilling to let her leave, "Does my senior sister deserve to die?" Why...... He was so ruthless. ”

"Ah Jin, Ah Jin, you listen to me. Ah Teng ...... "Song Wenyu used all his strength to imprison Ah Jin in his arms, as if he wanted to melt her into his own blood. Ah Jin struggled for a while, and when he saw that he was so determined, he simply gave up the struggle and let him hold him. It's just that this warm embrace, no matter what, can't warm her heart.

"You can't tell why, and you know, it's not my senior sister who deserves to die. It's them who deserve to die. Ah Jin's voice was soft and soft, and such cold words came slowly in his ear. Every word is full of unwillingness and resentment.

Song Wenyu's body shook when he heard this, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back, "Ah Jin, don't think so." The more you think about it, the more you're getting into it. ”

"No, maybe this is the most sober time I've had in a while," Ah Jin looked away, landing on the reflection of the two embracing each other in the bronze mirror. She stared indifferently at the two people overlapping in the mirror, the images in the mirror were blurry, and her love for Song Wenyu suddenly became blurred, "Song Wenyu, you and I are not fellow travelers after all." Let's still ...... Say goodbye. ”

"What did you say?" Song Wenyu looked at Ah Jin blankly, unable to say anything else.

Ah Jin nudged him indifferently and broke free of his embrace. The two looked at each other, but there was no longer the affection in their eyes. There is only indifference and estrangement, "Leave it at that." From then on, you and I, one parted and two wide, each rejoiced. ”

So saying, she stood up and was about to go out the door. Seeing this, Song Wenyu stood up abruptly and clenched Ah Jin's sleeve, "Ah Jin! ”

This call is extremely humble and cowardly. Ah Jin paused, but did not look back. Outside, the sky was getting brighter, and the sun was about to rise in the sky. Ah Jin squinted, looked at the glow in the distance, and said softly: "You should also know that it is best for you and me to separate at the moment." After the Zhu Mansion incident, the imperial court and Tongtian Pavilion will be incompatible, like fire and water. If you want to keep me, you will abandon the safety of the Song family. Or do you want to keep me for credit? ”

"Am I such a person in your eyes?" These heart-wrenching words made Song Wenyu's eyes also begin to redden, and he took a step back, almost unsteady.

"Whether it's or not, it doesn't matter," Ah Jin didn't reply to her positively, but just took out the book that had been written in his sleeve, and said to Song Wenyu: "This is the book I wrote and left, the seal has been stamped, you just need to stamp your seal, and we will ......"

"Ah Jin!" Song Wenyu pulled Ah Jin in front of him, grabbed her shoulders with both hands and said, "We haven't come this far, it's really not ......."

"But you can't deny that this is the most effective way," Ah Jin looked at him, his eyes still warm. Only the hands that trembled slightly hidden in the sleeves revealed the true emotions in her heart, "You can't deny it, we don't have time...... Ah Yin made too much noise last night, and the officials will definitely notice it. You...... Are you really not afraid that the Song Mansion will be implicated? ”

Song Wenyu pursed his lips and did not speak, nor did he mean to let go of Ah Jin. The two of them were at a stalemate, as if time had stood still. In the end, it was Ah Jin who spoke again: "Put it down." If I want to leave, you won't keep me. ”

"Do you want to leave," Song Wenyu looked at Ah Jin intently, "If you don't care about that, do you want to leave." ”

“…… Wen Yu," Ah Jin didn't expect that these words would come out of Song Wenyu's mouth. She could barely control her emotions and wanted to throw herself into his warm embrace. But thinking of everything the two of them might have to face in the future, she still chose to make herself hard-hearted, "I should go." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Ah Yin appeared in the courtyard at some point. The young man in white stood with his hands in his hands, quietly looking at the two who were experiencing life and death. As soon as Song Wenyu looked up, he saw this indifferent young man. His appearance made Song Wenyu understand Ah Jin's determination to leave.

"Cherish," Ah Jin lowered his eyes, no longer looking at his panicked appearance.

Ah Yin's appearance seemed to unload all the strength of Song Wenyu's body in an instant, Ah Jin easily brushed his hand away, he just looked at her with anticipation and pleading. But from beginning to end, Ah Jin did not look at him again.

She didn't dare, and she couldn't.

"Wen Yu, don't leave it at that...... Treasure. He watched Ah Jin come to Ah Yin's side, and before leaving, she turned sideways and said this to him, before the sky was completely clear, the two sisters and brothers jumped and left the small courtyard.

Song Wenyu looked at the empty courtyard in front of him expressionlessly. It's as if the beautiful woman is still there.

When Huairen entered the east wing, he saw such a scene.

"Young Master, what are you...... What about the young lady? Huairen was puzzled, and walked up to Song Wenyu and wanted to help him up, but found that his hands were cold, "Young Master? ”

"Huairen, she's gone." Song Wenyu raised his head and looked at Huairen, with indescribable despair in his eyes.

Huairen was stunned for a moment, still pondering the meaning of this sentence, and suddenly Song Wenyu's body sank, and he fainted in his arms.

……

"She's gone?"

Together with the news of Song Wenyu's illness, it was the news that Ah Jin said goodbye without saying goodbye.

"Yes, but the Song Mansion announced to the public that he had returned to his parents' home." Feiyun Road.

"Let's go, she will follow Liang Qi'an back to Unruly Mountain, and she will be able to live and heal." Xiao Zhan knew about her injury, and when he heard the news, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Thinking of Song Wenyu, who was sick in bed, he had a somewhat complicated mood, "Since Wenyu is sick, let Xinglinyuan go to a doctor to give him a good life." He is in the prime of life, but he doesn't want to fall into any disease at this time. ”

Xiao Zhan's words were old-fashioned, but Feiyun didn't feel anything wrong. As soon as he and Feiyun had finished ordering this, he saw a waiter respectfully come to him with a bowl of decoction. Seeing this, the medical officer beside Xiao Zhan hurriedly stepped forward to test the poison, and after confirming that it was okay, he retreated to the position where he was standing.

Xiao Zhan took the medicine with both hands and entered Xiao Wusheng's bedroom, and when the king saw him coming, he first saluted respectfully, and then waited for Xiao Wusheng to sit up from the bed.

"Father, it's time to drink the medicine," Xiao Zhan knelt beside the bed, looked intently and cooled the decoction with a cool expression, and scooped another spoonful to Xiao Wusheng's mouth.

Xiao Wusheng opened his mouth and took a sip, only to feel that his mouth was full of bitterness, which made him frown.

"Zhu Liangdong's matter, how did you handle it." Xiao Wusheng asked while drinking the medicine.

"It's only been seven days since the retainers posted the notice, and there are no less than twenty sufferers who have come to beat the drums. There are peddlers and pawns, and there are also merchants from various families," Xiao Zhan replied, and the action of feeding the medicine in his hand did not stop.

Before I knew it, a bowl of medicine had bottomed out. Seeing that Xiao Wusheng had drunk the medicine, Wang hurriedly handed over a handkerchief and candy. Xiao Zhan took the handkerchief, wiped Xiao Wusheng's mouth carefully, and put the plate with candy in Xiao Wusheng's hand.

Just now, Xiao Wusheng just listened to him with his eyes closed, and he didn't express his opinion, he wasn't sure if Xiao Wusheng would protect the Zhu family.

"Let Dali Temple take care of these crimes, since it is to take people, you must first sort it out, so that you know it in your heart."

"Yes," Xiao Zhan glanced at Xiao Wusheng, and he was a little confused about what Xiao Wusheng meant.

"Go down, I'm a little tired, and I want to rest." Xiao Wusheng didn't touch the plate of candy, just closed his eyes, waved his hand, and said tiredly.

"Yes," Xiao Zhan didn't say much, bowed to Xiao Wusheng and withdrew. Xiao Wusheng turned his face and watched his long figure gradually disappear at the door, then he turned his head and stared at the intricate patterns on the bright yellow curtain in a daze.

"Sage......" the king called softly, "let's eat a candy, the medicine smells very bitter." ”

Xiao Wusheng shook his head, and then said slowly: "Arnold's whereabouts, have they found out?" ”

The king's face was sad, "Sage, now it's not just from Longwei who is investigating, Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, and Jingzhao Yamen are all investigating the whereabouts of His Royal Highness Jiu." ”

The difference is that only Long Wei knows Xiao Nuo's true identity. 18

Xiao Wusheng listened to it and closed his eyes in pain, "She's taking revenge on me." ”

The Wang waiter couldn't tell who Xiao Wusheng was referring to, so he could only stand aside respectfully, waiting for Xiao Wusheng's next words. However, Xiao Wusheng only said such a sentence, and then stopped saying it.

Xiao Zhan returned to the palace from the palace, and as soon as he entered the study, he said to Feiyun: "For a while, I told everyone to be careful. Now that the sage's attention is on Tongtian Pavilion and the Ninth Brother, let's not come forward at this time. ”

Feiyun understood his concern. The talented people under their command are more or less inextricably linked to Tongtian Pavilion, and if they are discovered by someone with a heart, not to mention the extraneous branches, maybe they will give the Zhu family a chance to escape.

After Xiao Zhan said this, his fingers tapped the handrail again and again, Xiao Nuo appeared in front of everyone in such a way, which was the last thing he wanted to see. If it wasn't for the last resort, he really didn't want to stand on the opposite side of Tsutenkaku.

"Have you figured out how to face Tongtian Pavilion in the future?" Seeing that he was silent, Feiyun asked tentatively.

Xiao Zhan paused, and glanced at Feiyun meaningfully, "The master is still hating Liang Qi'an." ”

Feiyun opened his mouth, but the word of hatred never came out. He hated him, of course, but what did he hate about him? Hating him for being too jade tree in the wind, and showing alone in the forest, will he bring disaster to the princess?

At this moment, Feiyun didn't know whether he hated him or was jealous of him.

"If the imperial court wants to take down Tongtian Pavilion, what does the prince plan to do?" Things have come to this point where this choice is inevitable. Xiao Zhan is also troubled by this.

He sneered, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "Man, that's it. It's obvious that you made a mistake, but in the end, you always like to blame others for your mistakes. ”

What he said was Xiao Wusheng's current state of mind.

"Let's discuss this matter later. In any case, the Zhu family must not be able to escape this time. Xiao Zhan raised his head, no longer hiding the sharp edge in his eyes.

……

After Song Wenyu recovered from his illness, a piece of news came from the DPRK. Zhu Liangdong, the head of the Zhu family, was sentenced to death for selling his official position and seeking money and killing him. The Zhu family was distributed and confiscated the family property. But after a few days, the Zhu family, which was in full swing, collapsed like this.

Song Wenyu listened to the news brought back by Huairen, and his heart was very calm. Although he did not participate in the trial of the entire case, he vaguely felt that the key to the Zhu family being convicted so quickly was still on Ah Yin. If it weren't for Ah Yin's appearance that stimulated the saint, I'm afraid the Zhu family would still be able to survive for a while.

Song Wenyu covered his mouth with his hand and coughed a few times, and asked softly, "How is Luo Dalangjun doing, do you know?" ”

"What else, buy drunk every night, and don't listen to anyone's advice. I heard that a few days ago, he had a fight with someone in Suzaku Alley......" Huairen sighed, "But the leader of Luo is not lightly angry." I heard that Meng Dalang Jun has already returned to Luofu with Mrs. Luo to serve the sick. ”

"Sickness." Song Wenyu repeated these two words thoughtfully. I'm afraid it's not to serve the sick, but to escape the disaster. The Zhu family has fallen, the prince has completely become a monk, where should the little Meng family and the little prince go?

At the moment, it is one to be able to keep one. This is a rare tacit understanding between the Meng family and the Luo family.

Thinking of this, Song Wenyu suddenly stood up. Seeing this, Huairen hurriedly went to help, but was gently blocked by Song Wenyu, "Give me a change of clothes, I want to go to the Great Compassion Temple." ”

Since that night, more than half of the monks of the Great Compassion Temple have been killed or wounded, and there are broken walls and ruins everywhere. Now is the time to rebuild, and the deposed prince Xiao Shuo is officially ordained there. Since then, the Great Compassion Temple has become a taboo for people living in the inner city. I just feel that it is not very auspicious there, if it is not for worshipping the Buddha and incense, it is better to go less.

But Song Wenyu wanted to do the opposite.

"Young Master, what are you going to do there?" Huairen asked puzzled.

"Burn incense and worship the Buddha, go and get rid of bad luck," Song Wenyu replied a little perfunctory, but if he showed Huairen his true purpose, Huairen would not let him leave the Song Mansion no matter what.

Song Wenyu replied so firmly, Huairen half-convinced him to help him change his regular clothes, and helped him into the carriage. When the car arrived at the gate of the Great Compassion Temple, Song Wenyu got out of the car and sent Huairen to prepare incense and candles. He came to a messy back mountain and inquired where Xiao Shuo was now. Under the guidance of the monks, he finally came to the door of Xiao Shuo's meditation room and stood still.

Song Wenyu stared at the closed door and steadied his mind for a moment, then he reached out and pushed the door open. A vague scent of sandalwood emanated from the room. Song Wenyu stared at the back of the man in the gray monk's robe in front of him, and he didn't dare to recognize it for a while. It wasn't until the sound of the knocking wooden fish stopped for a while that he said loudly: "Your Highness." ”

Xiao Shuo put the small hammer aside, got up and bowed to Song Wenyu and said, "There is no His Highness here, only the poor monks. ”

"The dust is ......" Song Wenyu looked at Xiao Shuo, who had become a different look, with mixed tastes. The person is still such a person, but the temperament of the whole body and the tone of speech have already been judged by the two of them, "Master Chen, I came to fulfill the wish of an old man." ”

Xiao Shuo's eyelashes trembled slightly, and his heart was like stagnant water, and he had a little emotion because of this sentence. His face was as usual, but there were ripples in his heart. His silence seemed to be expected by Song Wenyu, so he continued unconcernedly: "Do you know the Medicine King Valley? She entrusted herself there for the end. ”

After saying that, Song Wenyu arched his hand and turned around and walked out of the meditation room. Outside the Zen room, the spring and the sun are warm, and it is a rare good weather. Song Wenyu raised his head and squinted at the brilliant weather, and his thoughts about Ah Jin were even more flooded.

……

An uninvited guest came to Jichang Palace today, and her arrival was completely unexpected by Zhu Liangxin.

Since being placed under house arrest by Xiao Wusheng, Jichang Palace has become a veritable cold palace. Not only was there no Mama Kong by Zhu Liangxin's side, but even Rong Yue folded in this time. There is really no caring person around her who can serve her thoughtfully.

So she wasn't surprised that this uninvited guest could drive in for a long time without hindrance. She just wondered why she had thought of coming here.

"Why did you come here?"

"Naturally, I'm here to say hello to the queen." Wen Aya replied gently.

The queen squinted, looking at Wen Aya's still clear eyes, and couldn't guess her true meaning for a while. So she snorted lightly and laughed: "Concubine Wen Shu is now a double body, and I am afraid that I will be unlucky when I come to this place." ”

Wen Aya smiled and sat on the stool next to her, her face full of innocence, "Why should the queen be so arrogant." ”

The queen's hand on the group chair clenched slightly, she stared at this face that looked five or six points similar to Concubine Liang, and couldn't help but secretly hate, "It turns out that Concubine Wen Shu came to see the jokes of the palace." ”

Wen Aya turned her head, tilted her chin slightly and looked at the bat auspicious clouds painted on the main hall, with a smile on her lips, "In two days will be the day of Commander Zhu's execution, the concubine thought, the queen mother has been living in a simple house recently, and there is no one around to serve her intimately, so I guess I don't know what happened outside the palace." ”

"What did you say?" Zhu Liangxin was stunned for a long time, as if someone had suddenly pressed her into the cold and biting water, and struggled for a long time before she could find her voice.

Wen Aya stood up, bowed to Zhu Liangxin Yingying, and turned around to leave. Zhu Liangxin stared at her fluttering figure with wide eyes, and stood up suddenly, completely losing his manners, "You stand for the palace!" You said...... You said that the Zhu family is Langjun, what's wrong? ”

The more she hissed, the more Wen Aya walked out of the cold palace with her head held high and a smile. Along the way, Lu Wei helped her, her mind turned a thousand times, and she was a little afraid. She was Xiao Zhan's helper who arranged for Wen Aya to protect her and support her, but all along, she didn't take Wen Aya in her eyes. But Wen Aya's performance today completely shocked her.

The two of them walked on the palace road that could not be seen at a glance, and the four attendants followed not far away. Wen Aya walked forward aimlessly, and suddenly heard Lu Wei say softly: "Niangniang, let's take a step." ”

"It's okay, I don't feel tired." Wen Aya replied with a smile. It seems that she is really happy in her heart. Lu Wei raised her head and quietly glanced at her, and lowered her eyes without a trace. This woman smiled so softly and freely, but it made Lu Wei's heart feel cold.

"I don't know how the queen will hiss after we leave. Come to think of it, it's really a bit exciting, and some of it even makes me want to stay and have a look. "She has never liked to use the palace to claim herself, and she has her own temperament, so it stands to reason that she can't survive in the palace. However, Xiao Wusheng connived at her like this. Gradually, even if she did something unruly, others would not be surprised.

Everyone has only one consensus, Wen Aya and Wen Shufei are Xiao Wusheng's top pets. Wen Aya knew very well that she was not anyone's top favorite. The man who was over half a hundred years old, when he looked at him affectionately, he was clearly not looking at her, but wanted to see another woman through her.

Even so, she didn't care. She doesn't care what grace lasts, who she cares about......

"If Niangniang does this, if it reaches the ears of the saint, I am afraid that the saint will have a dislike for Niangniang." Compared with Wen Aya's cheers, Lu Wei didn't dare to agree.

Wen Aya pursed her lips, "He won't." When he looked at my face, he couldn't get his temper out at all. ”

Wen Aya laughed self-deprecatingly as she stroked her tender face. She looked at the blue sky in the distance a little confused, and muttered to herself, "Lu Wei, it's really strange for you to say that these nobles in the palace." I knew this was the case, so why bother in the first place. ”

Lu Wei didn't answer her, there were idle people waiting behind her, she really didn't want to continue this topic with Wen Aya. Fortunately, Wen Aya is not a person who likes to immerse herself in sadness, I saw her grinning, and the whole person became bright again, and the previous sorrow and sadness were swept away and no longer existed.

"Okay, help me up, I'm a little tired." As she spoke, she stood still and went no further. Lu Wei nodded, and hurriedly beckoned to the four attendants, asking them to carry the step to Wen Aya.
