Rong Xiao looked at Shen Ruogu's disillusioned appearance, walked to his side with some worry, squatted to comfort him, and patted him on the shoulder.

"I'm going to have her buried properly."

Shen Ruogu nodded, squeezing the blood-stained envelope tightly, feeling very sad in his heart.

He put the envelope in his arms, ignoring the blood that remained on it, just thinking that this calmed his mind a little.

After a long time, Shen Ruogu stood in place, looking at the person called by Rong Xiao, covered the old woman's body with a white cloth, and sent it out of the door, and the maid also came to the ground and cleaned the floor.

Everything is as if it never happened, the scenery outside the window in Jiangnan is still refreshing, and the air is still so relaxed.

But Shen Ruogu felt that it fell on deaf ears, and Rong Xiao called him many times before Shen Ruogu reacted.

"What's wrong with you, why don't I take you to the riverbank."

Today's plan to return to the capital was ruined again, Rong Xiao looked at Shen Ruogu worriedly, the unstable appearance now is really distressing, Shen Ruogu is like losing his soul.

nodded, and let Rong Xiao lead him to the side of the river embankment.

The breeze blew cool, waking up the hazy thinking, Shen Ruogu opened his eyes, looked at the strong embankment, looked at Rong Xiao and said: "I really feel very tired, everything has not gone well since Ah Jue left me, and it is time to improve myself." ”

Rong Xiao shook his head, "You should have been protected by us, but you have to work so hard!" There was some distress in the words.

Shen Ruogu took two steps forward, leaving only a back for Rong Xiao, "You don't understand, Ah Jue is such a powerful man, what I want is to accompany him to achieve his hegemony, not to be a vase, which can only be appreciated." ”

"I don't care about that, if you follow me, it will be a rich day."

Rong Xiao really couldn't hear Shen Ruogu say that man, especially the look on Shen Ruogu's face, which made his heart feel as if he had fallen into a vinegar jar, which was both sour and astringent.

Shen Ruogu bit his lip and didn't know how to answer him, but finally shook his head, "I just regard you as my best friend." She couldn't forget that man in her heart, but in order to be touched by this friendship, she couldn't agree now.

Rong Xiao only felt that he was in a hurry, he shouldn't have said this just now, so he quickly shook his head with a smile and said, "I understand what you mean, I shouldn't say this either, let's go back if we turn around again." ”

The wind was blowing between the two people, and Rong Xiao seemed to be able to smell the light tea fragrance on the use of the drum, and the two of them were silent for a long time.

Shen Ruogu's eyes slowly regained their calm, "That old man died for me, I just owe him a favor and a life, I decided to ......"

Shen Ruogu looked at Rong Xiao firmly, as if he suddenly realized, and said, "I want to go back and find out the truth about the general of Zhenbei back then, so as to sue his spirit in the sky." ”

Rong Xiao's face didn't have the excitement he had before when he heard this, "Did you really make this decision?" Do you know how hard it is to get ahead?"

Shen Ruogu nodded, "I know, but what's the matter, I want to avenge him with my own hands." Shen Ruogu was firm in his heart, "How the people of this world treat me, and why should I treat them with courtesy." ”

Rong Xiao looked at Ruo's resolute face, as if he felt that this person was pushing himself farther and farther, Rong Xiao couldn't see clearly what Shen Ruogu was thinking now, but that cold face was the last thing he wanted to see.

This also confirmed that Shen Ruogu closed his heart even more, Rong Xiao did not object, but nodded silently, indicating that he supported Shen Ruogu.

The two returned to the capital the next day, and the emperor pacified the Jiangnan Water Ring because of Shen Ruogu, and exposed Wu Lin's corruption, and instantly Shen Ruogu became a hot upstart in the court.

In this tide, no one dares to fight against Chen Ruogu, since Shen Ruogu can come back safely from Jiangnan.

Most of the nobles in the court had already guessed that Shen Ruogu had avoided the heavy trap set by Wu Jianguo.

The emperor was extremely happy, holding the Buddha beads in his hand and kept turning at Shen Ruogu and said: "Shen Aiqing, you went to Jiangnan to stabilize the world for me, and even made my vision highly respected by the world, I didn't mistake you." ”

"Come on, give all the treasures sent by the South China Sea and foreign countries to Shen Aiqing, what kind of relatives do you want, just mention it."

The emperor is happy, Dayue, this hall looks kind, and many people look at Shen Ruogu with envious eyes and admiration on their faces.

But only Shen Ruogu could tell what their faces meant, Shen Ruogu was silent, thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, I have suffered a lot of injuries in this Jiangnan, so I implore the emperor to let me rest for half a year, and then serve the country after recuperating my body." ”

Shen Aiqing...... This. ”

This request made the emperor a little embarrassed, and finally found a person who was so close to his heart, and Shen Ruogu was different from others, he was really exercising his orders for use.

If Shen Ruogu is released for half a year, the wind and clouds on the tide will not know how many ministers in the middle of the wave court, and the others will be even more surprised, hearing this means to hide for a while.

But Shen Ruogu is now in the prime of life, this person is not a coward, with him daring to face Wu Jianguo, he will still want to be so cautious.

Could it be that something big happened, or Wu Jianguo threatened Shen Ruogu, all of this was unknown, they could only look at Shen Ruogu uncertainly.

"Please ask the emperor to be perfect, after suffering so many injuries, and a woman really doesn't dare to be strong."

The emperor sighed and looked at Shen Ruogu with a sigh, "It's my fault to blame you, Shen Aiqing is indeed a woman, it's okay to rest, if Aiqing wants to rest, just rest for half a year, come on, spread the right will, do what Shen Ruogu said." ”

After the next dynasty, Wu Jianguo, who was the leader, was followed by several officials to block Shen Ruogu's way back.

Shen Ruogu looked up at Wu Jianguo, who had an old-fashioned face, but he was not afraid at all, and he was dressed in an official uniform, making him look as handsome and dazzling as a young man, "What does Lord Wu mean by this?" ”

Shen Ruogu looked at Wu Jianguo, who was blocking in front of him, and asked with a smile, Wu Jianguo looked at the unpredictable expression on Chen Ruogu's face, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"What do you mean? I don't understand what Lord Wu is talking about. ”

"Since you have climbed to this position and harmed my nephew, you should know what you should suffer next, could it be that Lord Shen was scared, so he took the emperor's opportunity to escape from the court."

Shen Ruogu shook his head with a smile and said, "According to Lord Wu, am I afraid of you?" ”
