Out of the carriage, Shi Yu looked at the stone steps up the mountain, and then looked at Jing Heng.

"This is where the Overseer wants to bring me?"

Although she didn't want to sweep Jing Heng's excitement, she wouldn't have to climb the mountain this big night......

Seeing the thoughts of the person in front of him, Jing Heng hooked his lips and grabbed Shi Yu's waist, tiptoed, and quickly flew towards the mountain.

Shi Yu was startled, afraid of falling, and hurriedly hugged Jing Heng.

The original long stone steps, Jing Heng flew a few kung fu, and arrived at the destination.

When he stopped, Shi Yu realized that there was still a house built on this mountain, and a plaque was hung at the entrance, but it was empty and there was no inscription.

"This is the Overseer's private residence?"

Shi Yu looked at Jing Heng curiously.

The latter nodded, took Shi Yu's hand and walked in with her.

"This house was built three years ago, and Wechen happened to find that it has an excellent view, and there is also a natural hot spring, so he asked people to build this house."

Shi Yu took a closer look, and because of the obstruction of the trees, he couldn't see this place when he was down the mountain.

However, as Jing Heng said, this place does have an excellent view, and it can almost overlook the entire imperial city.

Because of the Chinese New Year's Eve night, the thousands of lights in the city reflect each other, and it looks beautiful, but it is ......

Shi Yu retracted his gaze and looked at the surrounding houses again.

It's just that the silence in the mountains, coupled with the shade of trees, is somewhat lonely compared to the lights in the city.

"Did the Overseer spend his previous Chinese New Year's Eve here?"

Seeing Jing Heng nodding, Shi Yu frowned slightly, "It's too quiet." ”

"On Chinese New Year's Eve in previous years, Weichen didn't like to be lively, but felt more comfortable in this mountain."

"And this year, doesn't the Overseer still like to stay in the palace?"

"It's not."

Jing Heng shook his head, a pair of eyes reflecting the lights in the distance, and his eyes were burning.

"With the emperor to accompany you this year, it is naturally good wherever you are."

There are many rules in the palace, if you stay in the palace, there are all kinds of rules for keeping the year, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to be idle in the second half of the night.

Of course, he also has selfish intentions, and when he thinks of this year's Chinese New Year's Eve, he can spend it in this house with the people in front of him, and his heart will be full of warmth. It seems that even the loneliness in previous years can be washed away.

"With the Overseer with me, I also feel that it is better to be anywhere, of course, it is better in this house than in the palace." Shi Yu opened his mouth with a smile, after all, there are not so many rules here.

Looking at the smiling eyebrows and eyes of the person in front of him, Jing Heng's eyes became brighter and brighter.

After a while, he said to Shi Yu seriously: "Your Majesty, there is something that Weichen did not tell you. ”

"What's the matter?" Shi Yu asked subconsciously.

Jing Heng secretly took a breath, and was about to open his mouth to confess, "Weichen ......"

As soon as he said two words, on the other side, the little maid in the house walked over.

"Lord Qiqi, the hot spring has been arranged."

Hearing the hot spring, Shi Yu's eyes lit up, "Overseer, I want to go to the hot spring." ”

Looking at Shi Yu's excited appearance, and then looking at the little guy who appeared at an extremely bad time, Jing Heng swallowed the unfinished words and took Shi Yu to the hot spring.

According to Jing Heng's previous instructions, the little ones prepared clean robes and prepared a pair of melon and fruit snacks, and when Shi Yu and Jing Heng arrived, they retreated with interest.

Shi Yu wore a middle coat and went down to the hot spring, and the hot water temperature suddenly dispelled the cold in the mountain, making people's bones all over the body seem to stretch.

Jing Heng looked at the fabric on Shi Yu's chest after his middle coat was wet, and frowned.

"Why does the emperor still have to bind his chest?"

A few days ago, he had some special robes made, and after wearing them, even if they didn't tie their breasts, they wouldn't be too obvious.

Shi Yu looked down, and his body sank into the hot spring water.

"It's not like there have been a lot of things lately, all kinds of sacrifices and banquets, I think it's better to be on the safe side."

Shi Yu's words did not make Jing Heng's eyebrows stretch, "Has the emperor ever thought about when to disclose the identity of a woman?" ”

Shi Yu was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head, "If the identity of the woman is revealed, it will inevitably cause an uproar, and in this way, it will be too difficult to get out of the whole body." ”

Moreover, although Chu Yan and Jiang Xia successfully entered the household department, this does not mean that the next step will be smooth.

After all, there are too many obstacles to the matter of women being officials, and now they are only small household officials, and they have not really shaken the position of those courtiers, and if they want to continue to implement it in the future, it must be difficult and dangerous.

If his identity as a woman is disclosed again, there will be a lot of scolding from the court at that time, and he may not be able to protect it, let alone continue to promote women as officials.

Shi Yu raised his eyebrows and thought about it, the look on his face couldn't be more obvious.

Jing Heng knew the worry in Shi Yu's heart, but because of these words, his heart sank.

"Weichen understands the emperor's worries, but hasn't the emperor thought about restoring his status as a woman and marrying Weichen?"

Ever since Jiang Xia's fortune telling, he has always been a little uneasy in his heart.

He believed that Nie Shiyu liked him, but if he liked him, he had to do it...... He didn't think so.

Maybe it was because he wasn't honest enough, or maybe there were other reasons, he vaguely felt in his heart that there was something between the two of them after all.

And this feeling made him desperate to catch something, for example, he wanted to marry Shi Yu, and he wanted to tell everyone openly that she was his own.

Shi Yu looked at Jing Heng unexpectedly, and when he looked at the person in front of him, he suddenly felt a little more empty in his heart.

Married to Jing Heng? She hadn't thought about that yet.

I was willing, but I felt that it didn't seem necessary.

Whether it was the trouble of her disguising herself as a man, or Jing Heng's status as a eunuch, they couldn't think about these things like ordinary men and women.

"Overseer, I think this matter ......"

"Is it because of Weichen's eunuch status?" Seeing the hesitation and resistance on Shi Yu's face, Jing Heng asked.

At this moment, he couldn't wait for Shi Yu to nod his head, saying that it was indeed because he was afraid of his identity as a eunuch that he didn't think about it.

After all, if that's the case, it's not a problem at all.

Jing Heng's frank words had already reached his lips, but Shi Yu shook his head without hesitation.

"Overseer, it's not because of this, if I really cared about this, I wouldn't be with you."

Jing Heng's heart sank, "That's because ...... The emperor doesn't like Weichen so much? ”

Shi Yu was stunned for a moment, and continued to shake his head to deny, "No, I just think that just revealing my identity as a woman is troublesome enough, if I still want to marry the overseer, then I am afraid that the court will really blow up at that time." ”

Shi Yu's explanation did not make Jing Heng's heart comfortable, he looked at Shi Yu quietly, and after a while, as if he had mustered up the courage, he asked again.

"If these problems can be solved, is the emperor willing to marry?"
