Silent Night Thoughts 01-04 by Xiao Yu

a)

The night is as cool as water, and the moonlight is as silver as silver.

The long-abandoned Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion is as clean and tidy as ever.

In the garden, there are still carefully planted peonies, blooming in full bloom, pure white, noble purple, all like the character of the left phase. Noble, dignified, never lose character.

There is still a faint tranquility fragrance in the room, the green smoke is faint, and the fragrance is quietly precipitated. Even the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the desk are all the Zihao and Duan inkstones that Lord Zuo Xiang is accustomed to, the tip of the pen hangs quietly, and the ink is fragrant.

It's just, it's too quiet. The whole house was too quiet, and there was not the slightest bit of anger. There are only two people in the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, and they are just standing in the garden at the moment, not speaking, not moving.

Shi Jingyuan stood quietly in a corner of the garden at the moment, watching his master quietly look at the flowers in the garden. Peony, also known as Jiang Li, Li Cao, did Lord Zuo Xiang also expect that there would be such a day, and planted this fate in the garden early, and when the time came, he drifted away, adding to the troubles and sorrows of the person on the ninefold order at this moment?

Shi Jingyuan still remembers the chaos two years ago. was obviously the one who was tied to Ling Chi on the school field, but in the end, with the posture of a celestial man, he stood in front of the lord who killed him with the strength of gods and ghosts. Even though his flesh and blood were flying, even if he was full of pain, even if he was riddled with disabilities, he still stood in front of the emperor like that, blocked all the attacks for him, and resolved all the crises for him in a few words.

Shi Jingyuan has thought more than once: That person, is he really a human? His wisdom, his calmness, his strength, one has to wonder, is he really human? Is he really not an immortal who accidentally fell from the sky?

But that person will also be separated from his flesh and blood, he will also grin in pain, he will also be angry, he will also be sad, he will even press the emperor on the leg and beat his ass like a child, will there be such a god?

Shi Jingyuan glanced at the quiet Yan Rin worriedly, at this moment he seemed to have completely fallen into his own thoughts, he didn't dare and didn't want to disturb.

It's been two years, Rong Qian seems to have evaporated from the world, and Yu Yanrin is frantically looking for it all over the world, and every time he stands in the Zuo Xiangfu, he hurts his nerves. He looked at the peony he planted with Rong Xiang on his birthday in the Zuo Xiang's mansion; He watched the small swing and small hammock that Rong Xiang made for him when he was a child in the Zuo Xiang's mansion; He looked at the food box in Zuo Xiang's mansion that contained the snacks he made for Rong Xiang...... Familiar things, every time they arouse his thoughts, after all, it is a gloom, and he will never be speechless.

These things, he thought that Rong Xiang had given up, Rong Xiang didn't care about them, Rong Xiang had long been forgotten in the long river of time in the corner of memory and sucked dust, but now he found out that it turned out that the things related to himself were so cherished and collected by Rong Xiang. Originally...... It's always been him who was wrong!

Shi Jingyuan watched Yan Rin standing quietly in the garden looking at the sky and the full moon, watching his palms clenched little by little, unable to let go anymore, and lowered his eyebrows. What he can do for Yan Rin now is only when he misses it, accompany him to Zuo Xiangfu to take a look, stand for a while, and let him use a sharp knife to cut an extra wound in his heart every time he comes.

On the day Rong Qian disappeared, Shi Jingyuan had just followed Yan Rin's instructions to deal with everything that should be taken care of, what should be monitored, and what should be handled, and hurried to the imperial study, and the order he got was that "no one is allowed to approach." He paced outside the door, worried, anxious, not knowing what the two were talking about.

Although Rong Qian saved Yan Rin, in the face of a king who killed him with Ling Chi's punishment, it is inevitable that he will not have resentment; Although Rong Qian was injured by Ling Chi, the strength of the school still frightened him, if Rong Qian wanted to do something to Yan Rin, Yan Rin would never be able to fight back.

One stick of incense, two sticks of incense, Shi Jingyuan became more and more anxious and worried at the door, if the stone land could reflect his mentality at this time, it must have been smoothed out.

After waiting for an hour, Shi Jingyuan didn't dare to wait any longer, and beckoned fiercely: "Follow me in!" The general manager of the king hurriedly stopped him: "Shi Shizi, the emperor has an order, and no one is allowed to approach." You'd better do what you want. ”

Shi Jingyuan's eyes glared: "The emperor and Rong Qian have been in the study for so long, and everything that should be said has been said, don't forget, Rong Qian is still guilty, and his Ling Chi is not finished yet!" If the emperor has anything at this time, who can take care of it?! If the emperor blames it, I will bear it! "Shi Jingyuan is Yan Rin's first trusted person, and when he drinks it at this time, he has his own prestige.

Since everyone took the blame, Chief Manager Wang no longer stopped him, and Ren Shi Jingyuan took a group of people into the imperial study. Shi Jingyuan didn't care if Yan Rin would be blamed at the moment, what he cared about was Yan Rin's safety. Although Rong Qian placed himself by Yan Rin's side, he only identified Yan Rin as the master, and he only had this one master.

grew up together, studied together, practiced martial arts together, plotted and planned together, quietly overthrew Rong Qian's regime together, and looked at the world together. He watched Yan Rin grow up, he watched Yan Rin mature, he watched Yan Rin suffer, he watched Yan Rin happy, he once said to Yan Rin when he was a child: "Jingyuan will always protect the emperor, even if it is death, I will definitely protect the emperor!" And Yan Rin, who had grown up, also looked directly into his eyes and said with a heroic momentum: "Jingyuan! As long as I have been an emperor, you will be a great official for as many years! You and I have come here, and I will go with you! ”

Yan Rin is his king, his master, and his partner, his younger brother, and he will try his best to protect the thoughtful person in his life. Shi Jingyuan knew in his heart that the value of his survival in this life was only Yan Rin. He once swore that he would protect the emperor, share his worries and solve problems, accompany him when he was lonely, and never give up no matter how difficult it was!

Almost without touching his feet, he rushed straight to the study, and pushed open the door of the imperial study without caring about the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, but there was only Yan Rin alone in the room. At this moment, he was lying on the soft couch, motionless.

Shi Jingyuan's heart froze, and he flew forward and pounced: "Your Majesty! How are you? Emperor!! Come! Tell the Imperial Doctor! ”

Yan Rin's face was pale, her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and her lips, which were always red and bright, had faded all their color at the moment. Knowing that he was injured, but he didn't know where the injury was, he was frightened and blamed for himself, and he was always wise and calm, and he was in a mess at the moment, except for Doctor Xuan, he didn't know what to do.

Rong Qian thief! He actually hurt Yan Rin! If he knew that he wouldn't be such a well-behaved courtier, and directly ignored Yan Rin's holy decree and broke in to guard him, he might not have been injured. Shi Jingyuan gritted his teeth at this moment, he really wanted to catch Rong Qian back and Ling Chi a few more times!

"Jingyuan ......" made him lower his head with a low shout, and saw that Yan Rin had slowly opened his eyes and looked at him. With joy in his heart, he quickly knelt down on one knee: "The minister's escort is late, please ask the emperor to surrender!" ”

Yan Rin ignored him, glanced around anxiously and grabbed Shi Jingyuan's sleeve tightly: "Jingyuan!" What about appearance? Where's Rongxiang?! Shi Jingyuan looked up in surprise, but what he saw was Yan Rin's frightened and frightened expression, and the black pupils exuded a child-like dazed fear, just like the helpless child who grabbed himself and asked over and over again when he was snubbed by Rong Qian.

However, he had no choice but to answer: "This ...... Wechen didn't know. When Weichen came in, the emperor was the only one here, and he didn't see Rong Qian's figure...... "Before he finished speaking, Yan Rin grabbed his hand tightly and slipped down on the couch, Shi Jingyuan was frightened, but he didn't know what to say, let alone what to do.

Yan Rin's face was pale, his eyes were full of moisture, his lips trembled and muttered: "He still left me and left, he still didn't forgive me, let me admit my mistakes, I begged him to stay, begged him not to go, and he ignored it." I know I'm wrong, why? Why didn't he even give me a chance to correct my mistakes? Why?! ”

Panic and fear, remorse, pain and sorrow, but they can't call back the most important person. The man had left him behind.

Rong Xiang, gone.

Shi Jingyuan looked at him and felt distressed, but he could only call him softly: "Your Majesty ......" He has always known Rong Qian's status in Yan Rin's heart, he has always known that whether he loved him and respected him like a god when he was a child, or gradually grew up and regarded him as a thorn in his eye, Rong Qian always occupied all positions in Yan Rin's heart. His every move is the object of Yan Rin's attention.

When he was a child, he respected Rong Qian as a god, and regarded Rong Qian as the most important existence in the world. He relied on Rong Qian, he believed in Rong Qian, he was close to Rong Qian, Rong Qian was in his heart, his relatives, his mentor, his protector, and his most powerful courtier.

When he grew up, Rong Qian began to alienate him, began to snub him, began to care about him, began to control him, checked and balanced him, he was wronged, he was frightened, he panicked, he was sad, and finally he was forced to let go of all the good for him, all the love for him, deal with him wholeheartedly, parry him, fight him, and beat him from thirty-three days to the eighteenth layer of hell. However, this time's willfulness made him fall into that dark hell himself.

Accustomed to his kingly momentum and his thunderous methods, at this moment he returned to the helpless boy many years ago, Shi Jingyuan couldn't find anything to say except for being distressed. What can he say, what can he say, as soon as Rong Qian leaves, no one can heal Yan Rin's injuries.

It was only when Yan Rin fell asleep that the imperial doctor dared to come up to diagnose. When he learned that Yan Rin's injury was actually a traumatic injury on his buttocks, Shi Jingyuan couldn't cry or laugh. He didn't know that Rong Daxiangguo actually had a habit of spanking people, and he actually beat the emperor!

I slept for a night, I was in a daze for a day, and for a day and a night, Yan Rin didn't say anything, didn't move, didn't eat or drink. Shi Jingyuan watched, accompanyed, and worried, but after all, he couldn't show his usual shrewdness and ability. Even what he can't accept, how can he persuade Yan Rin to let go? Say that the emperor is for the well-being of the people in the world, say that the emperor you are doing the right thing, what is wrong is Rong Qian, or that such a chaotic minister and thief is not worthy of the emperor's concern? In fact, you can say as many words as you can, but you don't want to deceive yourself hypocritically. Rong Qian is special to him and Yan Rin.

After a day and a night, Yan Rin seemed to have something more in her body, reversing her previous helplessness and fragility, what should be dealt with, what should be decisive, not bad, just as good. On the morning light, he played and folded according to the criticism, shrewd and capable as usual, and even the methods and means of doing things were more cautious and sleek than before, so that Shi Jingyuan couldn't help but have the illusion that he was hallucinating. He summoned Feng Changqing into the palace, and he didn't know what he asked, so at dusk that day, he took Shi Jingyuan to Zuo Xiangfu.

He stood against the light like that, looked at the peony in the garden and said slowly: "The peony is called the flower phase, these flowers were given to Rong Xiang on his 30th birthday, I don't remember it, but these flowers still grow so well." Shi Jingyuan knew that he didn't use the word "I", so he didn't interrupt, just listened quietly. He paused and continued: "Rong Xiang said, let me be a good emperor and a happy person." Rong Xiang used himself to achieve my reputation, Rong Xiang used his future to achieve my success, and Rong Xiang wanted me to be a generation of Ming Jun, which is the case...... I will live up to expectations! ”

After that day, Yan Rin was even more diligent in governance, so diligent that Shi Jingyuan felt that Yan Taizu Yan Li was nothing more than that. When he was young, he accompanied Yan Rin to study, and when he read the history of his ancestor Yan Li's founding of the Yan Kingdom, the two always admired him deeply. admired Taizu's grand ambition and princely demeanor, admired Fang Hou's amazing talent, wisdom and bravery, and also regretted Fang Hou's untimely death, but he never understood the reason why Taizu rose up after Fang Hou's death, and did not understand Taizu's pain and remorse. However, Yan Rin finally understood how painful it would be for such a person who was close to you and loved to leave forever, and how to regret not being at the beginning.

The heartache of the ancestors did not understand until ten years after he read the history books.

The cool breeze blew, Shi Jingyuan came back to his senses from his thoughts, and saw that Yan Rin was still standing in the garden in a daze, and finally couldn't help but go up and put the cloak in his hand on Yan Rin: "Your Majesty, it's late at night, it's cold, go back to the palace." Yan Rin didn't speak, only nodded slowly, and her voice was a little hoarse: "Go back to the palace." ”

Go back to the palace, go back to that huge cage, go back to the tomb where he and Rong are close to you, go back to the sorrow and repentance that you can never break free, for a lifetime, to see all the bitterness and joy there, to enjoy all the loneliness there, to understand all the states of mind of your ancestors there. According to what Rong Xiangxiang wants, to establish a strong era, to be a Ming monarch who is rare to see in a hundred years, and to create a country that belongs to Yan Rin. It's just that there is no real Yan Rin anymore, and that Yan Rin is dead.

Died in the misunderstanding of the appearance, died in a little hatred, died in the remorse after knowing all the truth, gave birth to Huafa overnight, and suddenly grew up overnight.

He can't go back, he will be happy if he can't go back and see Rongxiang, he can be satisfied with Rongxiang if he holds Rongxiang, and he can give up the past of the world with Rongxiang. He grew up, and Yongxiang left. There is no longer only Rongxiang in his world, he is no longer only tasked with satisfying Rongxiang, and he no longer only has Rongxiang's smile in his mind. He wants to control all the connections and networks, he wants to control the overall situation of the world, and he wants to shoulder the sorrows and sorrows of all the people in the world.

From then on, there was no longer Yan Rin, only the emperor.

The two walked in the palace, one in front of the other, silent and silent. Suddenly, Yan Rin stopped, turned around and asked Shi Jingyuan: "Jingyuan, do you remember when we first met?" ”

Shi Jingyuan smiled: "Your Majesty, Weichen naturally remembers." "Not only the first meeting, but also the bits and pieces of growing up together, he remembers them.

Yan Rin looked at his smile, couldn't help but buried his head and sighed slightly: "I am the only one left by my side......" Shi Jingyuan was stunned when he heard it, only watching Yan Rin's back gradually walk away. That tall posture, how can it be so chic as it seems, and how much unbearable weight is borne on his shoulders.

Shi Jingyuan looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and his thoughts couldn't help but drift far away......

***********************

(b)

The day Shi Jingyuan first saw Yan Rin was a rare cloudy day in summer, and it was unexpectedly cool. Without the scorching heat of the past, without the noise of the cicadas in the past, the breeze in that day blew so comfortably in people's hearts, just like the encounter of fate.

King Beijing took Shi Jingyuan into the palace to see the driver. When Shi Jingyuan entered the palace for the first time, he also brought a lot of novelty, looking left and right, his little face was full of excitement and curiosity. The palace is different! It's so big, so stylish, so beautiful! When will he be able to come here to accompany the emperor and be a loyal minister in the history books? He also wants to be like those princes and generals, go to the border, behead corrupt officials, and use his own strength to prop up a clear blue sky!

Thinking about it, the little man was a little immersed in his own vision, and even excited a little nervous, and he was not very comfortable walking.

Walking into the imperial garden, Shi Jingyuan heard a crisp children's voice with a hint of grievance and pleading: "Don't! Yan Rin don't let Xiang Xiang go out of the palace! Appearance, did Yan Rin do something wrong? Rong Xiang is angry with you, you punish me for writing and endorsing, I will definitely change it, I will not make Rong Xiang angry again! Don't leave Yan Rin alone in the palace! ”

A warm and soft voice sighed and said: "Your Majesty, how many times have the ministers said that if you want to say 'I', you can't always call yourself by my name." You are no longer small, and it is time for the ministers to keep their duties as kings and ministers. If the ministers are still living in the palace, does the emperor want the ministers to say that the ministers do not know the etiquette of respect and humility, do not know the shame of incorruptibility, and try to control and coerce the emperor? Does the emperor want his ministers to bear the reputation of disloyalty and injustice? Rong Qian looked at the child who was pulling his cuffs and begging, but he still refused the child's request with all his heart.

Shi Jingyuan stretched his neck to see what the emperor was like, but the manager Wang who led the way stopped at the right time and quietly waited for Rong Qian and Yan Rin to end the conversation, so it was useless to let Shi Jingyuan pull his neck into a giraffe. So Shi Jingyuan's heart seemed to be scratched by a hand, a little itchy, and a little impatient.

The crisp children's voice sounded again, and at this moment there was a faint cry: "Appearance! I...... I...... I know that Rong Xiang will never blackmail me, and I will not let the minister say that Rong Xiang is not! I will be obedient, I will listen to the words of the face! Rongxiang, don't you want to leave the palace, okay? "The sound grew quieter and quieter, and by the end it was almost inaudible.

Rong Qian looked at the depressed little man in front of him and sighed, this child was still too dependent on him. If he is still as soft-hearted and indulgent as he was in previous lives, how can he grow into a generation of Ming Jun? This child is the most diligent, hard-working, and wise child he has met so far. How can you soften your heart again and ruin such a beautiful person? He is a goshawk, he doesn't throw himself off the cliff, he can't fly.

He then said to the little Yan Rin: "Your Majesty, the minister knows the emperor's heart. However, the emperor has grown up and can take charge on his own, if the ministers are still living in the palace, how should the ministers of the court treat the ministers, will they not say that the ministers are trying to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes? The emperor can order that no one is allowed to say that the ministers are not, but how can it be forbidden for everyone to speak out? Even if one day the minister is attacked by a group because of the name of the 'chaotic minister and thief', and the attack and kill, it is the minister's fate......" The face was extremely gloomy between the words, as if the tragic day was close at hand.

Before he finished speaking, he heard the child's voice interrupt him hurriedly: "Rongxiang! I...... I promise you to leave the palace! However, can Rong Xiang go into the palace every day to see me and talk to me? I'll be obedient, will you come and accompany me? The voice was like that of a kitten, docile and soft.

Rong Qian couldn't help but snicker proudly in his heart, he knew that this kid was reluctant to damage his reputation, he had always been sensible, and this was what Yan Rin liked and was proud of Rong Qian the most. So he finally gently coaxed Yan Rin, who buried his head: "Okay, as long as the emperor studies hard every day, the minister promises to accompany the emperor every day when he goes down to the court!" ”

"Rong Xiang wants to talk! Appearance, you have to remember to come to accompany me every day! Yan Rin hurriedly took his hand and asked him for reassurance.

"When did the minister stop talking? As long as the emperor does a good window lesson and studies seriously, the minister will enter the palace every day to accompany the emperor, is this good? Rong Qian tried his best to soften his voice to coax him.

"Hmm......" Although Yan Rin asked for the guarantee that Rong Qian would accompany him every day, he was still depressed about Rong Qian's departure from the palace, and his mouth was so upturned that he could hang up the oil bottle. The joys, sorrows, and sorrows of children are so obvious that they can be seen at a glance.

To be honest, Rong Qian himself was very reluctant to leave the little Yan Rin alone in the palace. This child is the one he has been taking care of since he was an infant. In the past, it was because the old forces had not been cleared, and Yan Rin was too small, so he didn't worry about leaving him alone in the palace, so he insisted on entering the palace to accompany him.

At night, he held Yan Rin in his arms, coaxed him to sleep, and dipped ink in ink to write annotations on the fold; During the day, he coaxed him to eat little by little, stopped him from crying and made him laugh; When he grew up, it was he who held Yan Rin's arms, held the tender little hands, and led him to step out of every step of his life little by little; When he reached the age when he wanted to hold a pen and read a book, he took Yan Rin's little hand and taught him to hold the pen and dip it in ink to write the first word in his life...... has been inseparable from this child for too long, and he is reluctant to leave him at this moment, but he has to leave the palace after all. The emperor has grown up, and he, a powerful minister, stays in the palace again, and he is not in line with the etiquette, and he is even more suspected of controlling the emperor.

Just as I was about to coax again, I heard the report from the chief manager of the king: "Your Majesty, Rongxiang, the king of Beijing took the prince into the palace to see the driver!" I saw that Yan Rin immediately raised her hand to wipe her little face, and immediately sat up straight. Rong Qian looked at Yan Rin's demeanor and nodded with satisfaction, his children are good! Although he is still young, he knows how to prioritize, knows how to maintain the majesty of the emperor, and can control his joys, sorrows, and sorrows, which is really a good material for being an emperor!

Seeing that Yan Rin was ready, Rong Qian said loudly: "Please come in with the prince and the prince!" The chief steward Wang took the king of Beijing and the prince into the imperial garden to meet him. Only then did Shi Jingyuan see Yan Rin. A small child on the throne, carved in pink, with big black eyes with some moisture, two red clusters on his cheeks, and a baby's fat little face, looked very cute, but there was a slight grievance in his expression.

"Weichen knocks on the emperor, greets the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." King Beijing knelt down and saluted Yan Rin, and when Shi Jingyuan saw his father kneeling, he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to Yan Rin in the same way. It turned out that the emperor was so cute, and with this cognition in his heart, Shi Jingyuan couldn't help but quietly raise his head to look at Yan Rin again.

"Shi Aiqing doesn't have to be polite, let's be even, princess, give the prince a seat." Yan Rin's childish voice issued orders in an old-fashioned manner, and Rong Qian held his chin on the side and smiled like a flower. After King Beijing stood up, he hugged his fist towards Rong Qian on the side: "Is it good to be close?" Jingyuan, hurry up and salute Rong Xiang! ”

Is this appearance? This is the legendary Zuo Rongqian? Rongxiang's name, he doesn't know how many times he has heard his father say it. Rong Xiang controlled the government and governed the Yan State in an orderly manner; Although he is young, he is both civil and military, and it is difficult to have a second person in the world; Rong Xiang is the best candidate sent by God to assist the new emperor; Rong Xiang is the most amazing person in the world. Since even his father did not hide his admiration for Rong Xiang, Shi Jingyuan, a child, naturally stared at Rong Qian without blinking. Such a big hero, don't take a few more looks, if you don't have a chance to see it in the future, what can you do if you forget what you look like?

Although his eyes were straight, Shi Jingyuan, who had a good family education, still did not forget to maintain etiquette, so he knelt down in a proper manner, and kowtowed to Rong Qian in a proper manner: "Jingyuan knocks to see Rong Xiang!" ”

Rong Qian looked at the delicate and sensible Shi Jingyuan and smiled: "The prince of the world, please get up!" Shi Jingyuan's attitude is regular, and his eyebrows are clear, and he looks like a good boy at first glance. Rong Qian couldn't help but have some love for children at this moment.

Knowing that Yan Rin was depressed at the moment, Rong Qian smiled and said to him, "Would the emperor like to play with Shi Shizi in the past?" "But I haven't written today's window lesson yet." If you don't complete the window class well, Rong Xiang won't come to the palace to accompany him!

"Don't get in the way, let's have a good time with Shi Shizi today. You're about the same age, so you can play together. "Xie Rongxiang!" After all, Yan Rin is a child, and when he heard that he had this playmate to play with him, he was naturally happy, so he pulled Shi Jingyuan and ran out.

Running into the wide courtyard, Yan Rin looked at Shi Jingyuan and his eyes narrowed with joy: "Jingyuan!" Come and play war games with me! After saying that, he happily picked up the small wooden sword that Rong Qian made for him and waved it in a flash, and shouted in his mouth: "The heinous enemy general is not captured in front of me!" ”

Shi Jingyuan couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw his clumsy appearance, a round ball, but also clever and cute, and pretended to be a general with a small wooden sword. So he couldn't help but step forward and said to Yan Rin: "Your Majesty, the sword is not held like this, it should be like this." Holding his hand on Yan Rin's little hand and adjusting the position of his sword, Shi Jingyuan was like a little teacher, taking Yan Rin's soft little hand, waving the sword in the air.

"Jingyuan! Will you wield a sword? That's great! Rongxiang won't teach me how to use a sword! Yan Rin watched Shi Jingyuan make the sword flower fly in the courtyard, which was very gorgeous, and couldn't help gnawing on her nails and drooling with envy. He also wants to learn martial arts, and he also wants to become a martial arts master, so that he can protect his appearance with his own hands!

Shi Jingyuan put the wooden sword behind his back and knelt down on one knee to him: "Your Majesty, Rong Xiang must have Rong Xiang's thoughts." The emperor is still young now, and I am afraid that the emperor will hurt himself. In the future, the emperor's thoughtfulness will be protected by Jingyuan! Jingyuan will practice martial arts well and protect the emperor well! ”

Yan Rin was very happy to hear this, and ran forward in three steps and two steps to pull Shi Jingyuan's hand and shake it: "Jingyuan!" You have to talk the talk! In the future, you will often come to the palace to play with me! Well, but after I'm done with the window lessons! If I don't do a good job in the window class, Rong Xiang will be angry, and if Rong Xiang is angry, he won't come to the palace to accompany me! ”

Shi Jingyuan also nodded happily: "Okay!" The emperor is in charge of the court, and Jingyuan will help the emperor go up to the border pass, and beat away all the enemies who threaten my Dayan, so that they will never dare to offend my Dayan Tianyan again! The villain said it with great momentum. He raised his head and chest, and his shining eyes were full of princely arrogance!

Yan Rin also nodded: "Okay!" I will be the emperor, Jingyuan will be a big official, we will protect the people of Dayan together, let Dayan be smooth and rainy, and let the people of Dayan live and work in peace and contentment! ”

King Beijing looked at the little Yan Rin and couldn't help laughing: "The emperor has such grand ambitions at such a young age, it is really my blessing for Yan!" "Even though he is a child, he knows how to take on the responsibility of being an emperor, and he may not be able to figure out what he is going to do, but he can clearly recognize the existence of this responsibility. King Beijing looked at Rong Qian, who was smiling and looking at the two children but didn't say a word, and sighed secretly in his heart: Being able to teach the emperor so successfully, Rong Qian, what kind of god is he?

Rong Qian was in no mood to pay attention to King Beijing's mood, he only knew that the children there at the moment had such bright and lovely smiling faces. That's not his lord, that's not the object of his simulation, that's his child, the only child in the world.

Although he is not perfect, in his heart, this child is the most important existence in the world. What is simulation at this moment? What are grades? What is so important to be here, listening to the child's crisp laughter and seeing the child's bright smile? What else is there to pursue? Isn't Yan Rin's happiness more important than anything else?

Rong Qian smiled at the corner of his mouth, standing in the shade of the tree and quietly looking at the two struggling children, their little faces brighter than the sun, listening to the young but ambitious ambitions of the two children, and the laughter that was more beautiful than the silver bell, the joy in his heart penetrated into his heart bit by bit, and he couldn't help but smile from his face to the bottom of his eyes. Such a pleasant and gentle but dazzling brilliance, even at a glance, the humility at this time also makes people feel as if the gods are full of compassion and universal beings.

That afternoon, the scene of children playing and laughing in the courtyard, Zuo Rongqian's gentle gaze and happy smile from the bottom of his heart, became the most beautiful scenery that King Beijing had ever seen in his life, and that short moment was also the moment when he felt the most soft and happy in his heart.

It's like an ink painting, with a single stroke, it is eternal.

*************************

(c)

It was the height of summer, the weather was hot, the heat was so hot that it was almost breathless, and the cicadas in the garden were silent, I am afraid that they had fainted from the heat. At this time, the huge Beijing Palace, it was also quiet. Why? The prince of Beijing is on fire at the moment, who dares to say one more word and make one more action?

In the middle hall of the palace, King Beijing was so angry that his face turned purple, and the cups and bowls of porcelain that fell to the ground all reflected the anger of the prince who reached the boiling point at this time. The princess stood aside to persuade or not, and her own prince didn't give her room to open her mouth at all, so she couldn't even plead, just looked at the little man kneeling in the middle worriedly.

This is the culprit of the prince's anger. Shi Jingyuan finally knelt obediently in the middle hall at this moment, reining in all his naughtiness.

"Humph! You've grown. was able to take the sword given by the emperor to the outside of the mansion, not only did you take my words as a deaf ear, but you also went to the restaurant to fight! And Lukfook! He stopped drinking, and Shi Jingyuan's personal servant, who was kneeling in the corner and trembling like chaff, cried: "The slave knows that he is wrong! The slave didn't stop the son, the slave took the son out of the house to get into trouble, and there was no next time, the prince spared his life! ”

"Do you want to have a next time? Come! Drag me out and hit a hundred boards! As soon as the order came out, Liufu cried and begged the prince to spare his life. A hundred big boards, how can there be human lives when they are beaten down! Oh my ancestors, you really killed me!

"Daddy!" Shi Jingyuan was also anxious when he heard that his personal servant was going to suffer a hundred boards, and he couldn't help but plead. It is he who wants to go out, and Liufu is subordinate naturally wants to listen to the words of the master.

"It's all the child's fault! You can punish the child, Luofu is just listening to the child's order, begging the father to take back his life! ”

"Humph! You don't have to rush to be punished, I have an account to settle with you! Shi Jingyuan had no choice but to bow his head and shut up, only looking at Liufu, who was dragged away, so anxious that his tears were about to fall, and he only turned his eyes to his mother for help. The princess received her son's pleading eyes, so she had no choice but to speak: "Lord, let all the mistakes be blocked by the subordinates for Jingyuan, I'm afraid he will be even more fearless, but the subordinates are wrong if they don't stop the master, in order to set an example, just break in half." ”

King Beijing then snorted: "Don't drag it out quickly!" Fifty boards! Hit me hard! Jing Yuan had to watch with tears in his eyes as Liufu was dragged down, but he also knew that this was the most his father could give in.

"Shi Jingyuan! You kneel for me! You can't help but use the sword given by the emperor without authorization, and take it out of the house, it's a big mistake, you actually ran to the tavern to cause trouble, let the subordinates beat other people's injuries, and make the whole market chickens and dogs jump! Where do you still have a little self-consciousness as the prince of Beijing? It's a scourge! King Beijing counted his mistakes, and the anger that had calmed down a little rose again.

"That's because those thugs go to the tavern every time to extort money, so the children teach them a lesson in order to eliminate harm for the people." Shi Jingyuan couldn't help but defend himself.

"How dare you quibble? Give me to kneel in the yard! I don't speak, I'm not allowed to get up! When Shi Jingyuan heard this, he had to lament and walked to the sun-exposed courtyard and knelt. Being basked in the sun like this, Shi Jingyuan couldn't help but envy Liufu who was beaten fifty boards. At least fifty has a side, and you can go to rest after the fight, which is like him, now kneeling in the sun and basking in the sun, I don't know when it will be a head.

Two hours later, Shi Jingyuan only felt that the bones of his whole body were scattered, and he couldn't help but regret going to eliminate harm for the people. His mouth was dry and dizzy from the sun, and he wanted to faint. But Xuewu's body couldn't faint, and if he pretended to faint, he was sure that he would die even worse.

"Lord Wang, Jingyuan has been kneeling for two hours, he is not yet eight years old, and this punishment is enough." The princess felt sorry for her son and began to be a lobbyist constantly. "Hmph, if you don't punish him once, he will become more and more lawless! Princess, don't intercede for him! ”

"What if I intercede for the Son?" A warm and clear voice pierced the air, and King Beijing looked up and saw Rong Qian in civilian clothes standing outside the hall with a smile, and couldn't help but be surprised and greeted him: "Rong Xiang, please forgive this king for not welcoming distinguished guests from afar!" ”

Although the king of Beijing is the prince, Rong Qian is the left minister of the court, and all the decisions in the court are held in the hands of this seemingly gentle and harmless young man. The chaotic dynasty that was in chaos when the emperor died was managed by Rong Qian in just six years. His vigorous and resolute actions, his power and magic methods can be seen in general, even if the King of Beijing sees it, he must be polite.

Rong Qian was dressed in green clothes, and he was even more clear and elegant in his elegance. He smiled and waved towards the King of Beijing: "It was Rong Qian who took the liberty to visit the Beijing Palace, and asked the prince to forgive Rong Qian for being rude." Although he said this, there was no look of apology on his face.

"Rong Xiang is in charge of the mansion, I don't know what advice?" Rong Qian, the king of Beijing, who knew everything about the day, appeared in his palace, and he definitely didn't come to visit the door for nothing, let alone take a walk here after dinner.

Rong Qian didn't answer, but said with a smile: "I came from outside the hall just now and found that the prince was kneeling in the courtyard, but what did he do wrong and was punished?" He couldn't help but sigh when he saw Shi Jingyuan's crumbling little body, corporal punishment, corporal punishment, what he hated most was corporal punishment! This is obviously still a child, why is the punishment so harsh? If the child is disobedient, at most a few spankings will be wrong. Why did the ancients like corporal punishment so much?

Although he tried his best in his heart to slander the corporal punishment and scold the violent King of Beijing by the way, he still had a light smile on his face. King Beijing sighed and said, "Let Rong Xiang see the joke." The dog is stubborn, so he is punished. ”

Rong Qian waved his hand and said with a smile: "As far as Rong Qian knows, the prince has always been smart and motivated, wise and polite, and even more civilian. Today's events, I'm afraid there is also some misunderstanding. I'm afraid the prince has been kneeling outside for two hours, right? He was still a child, and that punishment was enough. The punishment is heavy, and it is not good for the health of the son. I saw that the prince had repented, so I asked the prince to look at Rong Qian's thin face and stop blaming the prince. ”

Now that Rong Daxiangguo has opened his mouth to intercede, it is impossible for King Beijing to insist on his punishment anymore, so he has to send someone to call Shi Jingyuan in.

Rong Qian sat down naturally, took the tea offered by his subordinates and began to drink it leisurely, pitiful King Beijing kept looking at his face and desperately wondering in his heart why he came from. Although Shi Jingyuan didn't make much trouble in the market, Rong Qian was paying attention to him, so he also knew what good things he was doing.

Seeing the little man being helped by his subordinates limping and grinning his teeth, and as soon as he came in, he was about to kneel down to salute him, and his already distressed psychology of the abused child exploded instantly, blocking the legs that wanted to kneel, but instead took Shi Jingyuan to his side and summoned someone to ice his knee joints.

Rong Qian saw the child's adoring gaze lingering on his face unabashedly, so he smiled and said, "Why was the prince punished by the prince today?" As soon as he heard Rong Xiang ask about his misfortune, even Shi Jingyuan lowered his head and did not speak. Although he felt that he had done nothing wrong to eliminate harm for the people, it was better not to let Rong Xiang know about such things that made his father angry. Rong Qian looked at him and smiled: "The son of the world has not done anything wrong, the fault is ......"

Shi Jingyuan heard it, huh? My father was so angry that he was going to die, but he actually brought it over in a few words, and said that he didn't do anything wrong? When he looked up in surprise, what he saw was Rong Qianyun's light smile. That kind of smile, looking down on everything, seeing everything, chic and indifferent, makes people's hearts quiet instantly.

Rong Qian ignored the colorful faces of the people next to him and continued to smile and said, "The motive is good, but the means are too bad!" If you want to teach Street Fighter a lesson, you also need to pay attention to strategy, and Shizi's method is too stupid! Go back and think about how you can teach others a lesson next time without taking the blame on yourself. ”

The King of Beijing was shaky after saying this, he tried his best to educate his son here, and he was good, but he came to add fuel to the fire, not only did not scold, but taught him how to make trouble next time, and he could still sit in the courtyard and drink tea leisurely. This, this, this...... Ahh......hhh

Seeing that King Beijing had almost been hit, Rong Qian finally smiled and got down to business. That day, Yan Rin took a carriage to move all the things in the palace to him, and he also understood Yan Rin's loneliness, since Yan Rin asked Shi Jingyuan to enter the palace to accompany him, Shi Jingyuan is also a young talent, knowledgeable and sensible, and there is nothing wrong with entering the palace to accompany him, so he asked Shi Jingyuan to enter the palace to accompany Yan Rin. Shi Jingyuan is a malleable talent, and Rong Qian can't help but be proud of his children's vision at the moment.

Rong Qian took a sip of tea, looked at Shi Jingyuan and asked lightly: "Shi Shizi, let me ask you, if you were by the emperor's side, what would you do?" "Rong Qian's question is very simple and straightforward, for children, there is no need to use the vanity and grievances of officialdom. Your child will always be direct.

Shi Jingyuan happily repeated what he said to Yan Rin that day without thinking about it, and replied: "By the emperor's side, I am a courtier. As a minister, you must first protect the emperor Zhou Zhouquan, make suggestions to the emperor, give advice to the emperor, share problems for the emperor, and protect the country for the emperor! Although Shi Jingyuan has never been a big official, he has read a lot of ancient books. Whenever he sees a loyal minister and a direct minister, his little heart full of a sense of justice is inevitably excited.

Looking at the villain's face of ambition, Rong Qian suddenly thought of the friend who stupidly ran to be a loyal minister, before entering the WTO, was Jinjie also like the villain in front of him, full of blood and passion? Thinking of Jinjie and Shi Jingyuan's loyal ministers, Rong Qian couldn't help but smile: "Okay! If I say this to you, I will let you go to the emperor's side to accompany him. You have to swear that you will give up your life to protect him, share his worries, accompany him when he is lonely, no matter how difficult it is! The words were extremely solemn, and Shi Jingyuan also nodded seriously: "I swear!" I will sacrifice my life to protect the emperor, share his worries, accompany him and not let him be lonely, no matter how difficult it is! ”

"This ...... Appearance! King Beijing couldn't help but open his mouth to dissuade. He doesn't know how much of a bully this mischief is, what if he takes the emperor badly? What did they give to Rong Qian?

Rong Qian raised his eyes and said: "Shi Shizi is a person I am optimistic about, he has the bearing of a companion, so the prince should not be too modest." If there's anything wrong, I'll do it. ”

Since Lord Zuo Xiang has spoken, King Beijing can't find an excuse to excuse himself. Rong Qian sat down enough, and said enough, so he stood up and said goodbye. Before leaving, he looked at the little Shi Jingyuan and said with a smile: "Shi Shizi, Rong Qian is looking forward to your future!" ”

At that time, Rong Qian's upright posture was simply as lofty and great as a god in Shi Jingyuan's opinion. He looked at the departing back of Rong Xiang, and was full of his heart to treat him as a god-like existence. His gentle face, his gentle eyes, and his gentle words were like a soldering iron that was deeply seared into Shi Jingyuan's heart. Rong Xiang is the most noble and great person in the world!

He never thought that for a long time to come, his enemy would be Lord Zuo Xiang. However, he decided that it was Yan Rin, not Rong Qian, so he walked without hesitation.

**********************

(iv)

The cool night breeze passed through the carved railings of the building, and through the red-painted lattice windows, it gently swirled around the room, teasing the flickering candles. As soon as the light and shadow dimmed, the words in the book fell into darkness and could not be read clearly.

Shi Jingyuan raised his head and sighed softly. Because he saw that the child sitting on the dragon chair had fallen asleep on the table at some point. Walking over and gently putting the cloak on Yan Rin's back, he looked at the almond crisp that was already cold on the side of the desk, his brows furrowed slightly, and when he looked at Yan Rin again, his eyes had precipitated a little distress.

Obviously, that person will basically not come again, Yan Rin's heart is clearly clear, but he still prepares that person's favorite dessert every night, waiting quietly like this, hoping that at some moment, the person he respects and loves the most will suddenly come to him.

Shi Jingyuan shook his head, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why are you so obsessed with Rong Qian, even if you can't bear to be tired and fall asleep after all, you still insist on waiting for his arrival here?

Hearing the sound of drums outside, knowing that it was nearly midnight, Shi Jingyuan hesitated, but still went to hug Yan Rin lightly. He was only eight years old, and at this moment in the middle of the night, the wind was urgent, and it was not good to sleep on the desk, but he couldn't bear to wake him up, so he wanted to carry him to the dormitory.

As soon as he put his hand on Yan Rin's shoulder, before he could exert his strength, Yan Rin jumped up as if he noticed something, grabbed his hand and shouted: "Appearance!" Being tightly grasped by Yan Rin, Shi Jingyuan couldn't help but be stunned, and after Yan Rin saw the person in front of him clearly, his voice finally sank like a deflated ball.

"Jingyuan ......" he called in a low voice, his disappointment overflowing. Shi Jingyuan said to him gently: "It's late, the emperor should go back and rest early." Yan Rin didn't answer, just stretched her neck to look out the window, and finally just buried her head and said, "Okay." ”

It's not that Shi Jingyuan doesn't know Yan Rin's feelings for Rong Qian, it's not that he doesn't know Yan Rin's dependence on Rong Qian, it's not that he doesn't understand Yan Rin's closeness to Rong Qian, it's just that looking at this half-grown child sitting on the dragon chair and looking lonely, his heart hurts for a while, Rong Qian, Rong Qian, why did you forget this child you worked so hard to protect in the past?

Shi Jingyuan knew that in order to protect Yan Rin, Rong Qian insisted on entering the palace under the pressure of public opinion, and Yan Rin's food, clothing, housing and transportation were all inquired about by Rong Qian himself. When it was cold, he would hold the little Yan Rin in his arms and use his body temperature to warm him, and when he was sleepy, he would put down all the official documents and sleep with him by the bed, and when he was hungry, he would personally draw up a nutritious menu, for fear that Yan Rin would not eat well and his health would be bad.

In the past, in Shi Jingyuan's heart, Rong Xiang was the most capable and generous person in the world. He is both civil and military, he is wise and brave, he is bold and careful, and he is omnipotent. The dynasty, which had become chaotic due to the death of the first emperor, was strangled in the soil by Rong Qian with vigorous and resolute means in just six years. Those who watched the throne were slowly dwindling; All forces against the new emperor were purged little by little; The atmosphere in the court has improved little by little, and there is Rong Qian's hard work. No one knows how he did it, but the truth is that he did.

In my memory, my appearance is always in a crimson official robe, but I always have a chic and complacent bearing, a little gentle and casual. His appearance is always different from ordinary people, no matter when, he can attract all the attention with his absolute presence, even if he is just a cloth and green shirt, it is unforgettable at a glance.

And the wisdom and talent of Rong Xiang made Shi Jingyuan admire. When he first entered the palace, he could always hear Yan Rin tell him a lot of strange stories, sometimes about loyal and patriotic generals, sometimes about chivalrous and courageous green forest masters, and sometimes even some unheard of myths and legends, and these stories that fascinated Shi Jingyuan all came from the mouth of Rong Xiang. Yan Rin once said proudly: "With appearance, those books are all decorations!" ”

Rong Xiang will always come to the imperial study after the next court, and analyze the report just now in the court to Yan Rin Jingyuan little by little, what is good and what is bad; Rong Xiang would always hold Yan Rin's hand while hunting and teach him how to better draw the bow without causing injury; Even when Shi Jingyuan did something wrong and caused Yan Rin to be wrong, Rong Qian never blamed him, but said to him with a gentle smile: "The motives of the son of the world are good, but the method is too stupid!" "And then it will slowly analyze them, just like it was a long time ago.

Shi Jingyuan often thinks: Why is there such a perfect person? When you think of his upright back, you will have a sense of admiration; Thinking of his gentle smile can impress his bearing; When you think of his teachings, you will fall under his talents. How did such a perfect person exist in the world? Dayan may be destined to be different and strong because of Rong Qian.

However, this is just Shi Jingyuan's wishful thinking. When they slowly learned to see the darkness in the Qing Dynasty, when they slowly sorted out the intricate relationships, and when they slowly learned to be able to play haha at the officials in the court and skillfully dismiss one after another, I don't know when, they couldn't see Rong Qian's face clearly.

When did that face, which always had a smile as warm as jade, slowly covered with frost?

When did those eyes, which are always wise and considerate, slowly blindfolded the world?

When did it start that the person who always did everything to protect and guide Yan Rin slowly walked away from him?

When did it start when he found out that Fang Jue was confused? That person is no longer always smiling at them, no longer always teaching them patiently and gently, no longer putting all his attention on them. He went from not entering the palace for a day, to the third day, to the fifth day, to the half moon, and in the end, he couldn't even see him once in a few months.

He didn't check Yan Rin's schoolwork, and he didn't want to know Yan Rin's thoughts, every time he saw them, his still young and handsome face was always able to pile up wrinkles to show the impatience of his master.

Yan Rin often hugged his knees and sat curled up in the dragon chair, biting his lower lip, with tears in the corners of his eyes, and asked him over and over again: "Jingyuan, did I do something wrong to make Rong Xiang angry?" Is there something I'm not doing well enough that Rong Xiang is not satisfied with why he doesn't come to see me? Am I too stupid and stupid to always fail to learn, which makes Rong Xiang disappointed and sad? However, Shi Jingyuan finally just looked at his teary eyes and bowed his head speechlessly.

Yan Rin often took great pains to collect all the things that might please Rong Qian and brought them to Rong Qian's front as if they were treasured, but in the end, Rong Qian said coldly: "The emperor has been very idle recently?" ”

No matter how hard Yan Rin tried to show a smile in front of Rong Qian, in the end, she just drooped her head, and was made by Rong Qian, who was as cold as ice, and finally returned in tears.

Yan Rin didn't understand, and Shi Jingyuan didn't understand either, why Rong Qian was inexplicably like a different person. Where did the person who spoiled them, loved them, protected them, and taught them go?

However, Yan Rin was depressed in the palace, but Rong Qian was depressed outside the palace. It's been more than a year, how many times have you seen him in private during this time? Looking at the child's sad and aggrieved eyes, looking at the child's pleading and sorrowful face, looking at the child's cautious attitude, those words seemed to still be in my ears.

"Looks! I, I miss you! Why didn't Rong Xiang come to the palace to see me? Did I do something wrong and make Rong Xiang angry? ”

"Looks! Today's window class was praised by Taifu! So, will you just go into the palace and accompany me for an hour? Just an hour! It won't delay the rest of the face! ”

"Looks! Today I asked the imperial dining room to make Rong Xiang's favorite dish, today is Rong Xiang's birthday, I have been very well-behaved during this time, you will come to see if I am okay? ”

"Looks! Are you angry? I, I must change! If you say it, I will change it! I won't let Rong Xiang get angry and disappointed anymore, I won't stop trying, I ...... Whatever Rong Xiang wants me to do, I will do it! Don't you care if I'm okay or not? ”

The soft children's voice, mixed with crying, made Rong Qian's heart tight, as if he couldn't breathe. His children are so obedient, so sensible, so diligent, and so hard-working, and he has never seen a child like him, who treats his affairs as the most important thing in the world.

When he took over this soft and boneless little body from the hands of the former emperor, he solemnly swore that "the ministers will live up to the emperor's trust!" He would say this reverently once in every life. It had nothing to do with the topic, nothing to do with the simulation, but he wanted to swear solemnly like this once, and he wanted to fight so hard for this lovely poor child.

However, in the first life, he worked hard for the emperor, fought hard to kill the enemy, and cleared all hardships and obstacles for him, but the little emperor became suspicious of him at the instigation of the minister, and finally let him die alone in the fields. However, he doesn't complain, it's that he doesn't get close to this emperor well, he will doubt, he will be afraid, he will panic, it is all taken for granted, everything is his fault, there is nothing wrong with the emperor.

In the second life, he still worked hard for the emperor, and did not forget to accompany him in all kinds of hardships, give him the best, and spoil him to lawlessness, but in the end he was secretly poisoned to death by the absurd and willful emperor, exhumed the coffin and whipped the corpse, and slaughtered all his relatives. However, he didn't complain, it was he who neglected to educate the emperor to be close to and care for others, and it was his mistakes that led to the emperor's mistakes, so in this life, everything was his fault.

In the third life, he still worked hard for the emperor, found the best teacher for him, didn't dare to go if he wanted to be close, didn't dare to do anything if he wanted to be estranged, trembling, and waited for the emperor to grow up, but the emperor still gave up on him easily in the opposition of the Manchu Dynasty, confiscated his home, exiled his family, and was finally beheaded in the world. However, he didn't complain, he forgot to let the children face the hidden dangers by themselves, and he forgot to teach the children to solve the problems by themselves, so in this life, it is still his fault.

This is the fourth time, and this child is also the loveliest, most loving, closest to him, and the most enlightened child, and he can't ruin this child because of his own mistakes!

So he only said over and over again: "Your Majesty, the minister is very busy and has no time to accompany you!" ”

"Your Majesty, you have grown up, and the ministers are too busy to spend time with you."

"Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't dare to be angry with the emperor, Weichen is very busy, so he won't accompany the emperor much."

The tone is getting colder, more impatient, more and more distant. It's not that he can't see the child's aggrieved face, it's not that he can't see the child's sad figure, it's not that he can't see the child's efforts, but he has to face such a Yan Rin and speak coldly, always saying that I am very busy, and the emperor is very busy.

In fact, I wanted to say to him: "Your Majesty, you didn't do anything wrong, you did a good job." ”

"Your Majesty, you are getting smarter and more motivated, the minister is very happy to see you working hard."

"Your Majesty, you can think about the minister, the minister is very happy, the minister is very honored, the minister is very happy!"

"Your Majesty, the minister is not angry with you, the minister is proud of you, and the minister is proud of you. The ministers will always protect the emperor, and the ministers will never leave the emperor! ”

However, after all, I just want to, I still can't do it in reality, even if my heart hurts like I'm burning, I still keep my sanity, and only in the process of quietly communicating with Taifu in private, I can talk more to Taifu, hoping to teach Yan Rin more.

He was taught the principles of being a man through Taifu, taught him the bearing of being a king, taught him the method of knowing people through Taifu, and taught him the ability to be motivated through Taifu...... In fact, I want to personally pull him by my side, over and over again, little by little, to teach him, lead him, and protect him. But after all, it can't.

Shi Jingyuan finally let Yan Rin go back to the dormitory, and when he left, Yan Rin grabbed him and said softly: "Jingyuan, is it that I am too useless, I always let Rong Xiang protect me, so Rong Xiang is tired of it, and he will ignore me anymore?" ”

Shi Jingyuan couldn't answer for a while, and the ripped sleeves of his robe many years ago, a little bit of red blood from the plum blossom version suddenly appeared in front of him. He couldn't help but think a little confused, Rong Qian, did he still remember that in order to save Yan Rin, he could not even want his life?
