Chapter 62

In the whistling wind from the window, there was even more leakage, and there were small moths around the candle flame in the room, as if they were about to pounce on it in the next moment.

Rong Jin's chin rested on Shen Yu's shoulder, his eyelashes were half-open and half-closed, and his body was tense to the extreme, and then gradually relaxed, and he gasped slightly.

Compared to the outright torture at first, she can also find fun from it.

It's just a pity that a skirt that I borrowed was ruined again, and it's not easy to return it, so it's better to buy a new pomegranate skirt for Bai Rui.

Shen Yu's slender fingers ran through her long loose hair, and the fingertips seemed to be stained with a faint fragrance of osmanthus flowers, caressing her back unhurriedly, as if to soothe.

There was some discontentment in his low voice, and he asked, "You haven't answered what I asked before." ”

asked her who she liked and who she wanted to marry, but Rong Jin didn't want to answer this, so he rarely took the initiative to gag him, thinking that he would be able to take advantage of the situation after he was entangled, but he didn't know that Shen Yu would ask again.

Rong Jin lay on his shoulder, making a sleepy appearance, but he didn't hear it.

Shen Yu kneaded her pantothenic waist, and suddenly hugged her and got up: "I have good patience today, you can spend it here." ”

Rong Jin had nowhere to rely on him, but to cling to his shoulder, and the distance between the two could not be closer.

"I ......" Rong Jin's back against the begonia window, and he could even feel the carved patterns on it, and he couldn't pretend to sleep anymore. The look on her face couldn't tell whether it was pleasure or torture, she thought about it and asked rhetorically, "Does Childe really want to hear it?" ”

She always looks gentle on weekdays, as if she has no temper at all, and is rounded and flattened by others. It's really so cold that when I lift my eyelids to look at people, I don't seem to be able to mess with them.

Shen Yu was silent for a moment by her gaze, and licked the tip of his teeth: "You say." ”

The two of them are doing the most intimate things, but the words that can come out of Rong Jin's mouth are full of alienation: "...... I didn't like anyone, and I didn't want to marry anyone. ”

Whether it is Shen Yu or Shen Heng.

She is not Lu Qianjin, who grew up in the palm of her hand, and when she takes a fancy to the handsome man she likes, she can tell her father and mother shyly and ask them to come forward to arrange the marriage.

Since childhood, I have to protect my little sister and beg for a living under my stepmother, all I have been thinking about over the years is how to save more money, and there is no place for the wind and snow.

Shen Yu was worried about her and Shen Heng's affairs, because he was very unreasonable, and he always wanted to hold her firmly in his hands, and because Shen Yu didn't understand her at all.

The four eyes looked at each other, and they were speechless.

In the end, Shen Yu raised his hand to cover her black and white pupils, and then pasted them again, almost sticky for a kiss.

Xun Shuo once reminded him openly and secretly, telling him to "restraint" and not to be too nonsense, but Shen Yu didn't take it to heart and left it behind in a blink of an eye.

When Rong Jin was carried back to the bedroom by Shen Yu, he was already so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, so he had already closed his eyes and fell asleep before he touched the pillow.

On the second day's breakfast, an extra bowl of ginger soup was added.

"Shen Xiang ordered, it was said to drive away the cold," Bai Rui's cheeks were slightly red, and he leaned closer to bite his ears, "Although the warm pavilion is burning the stove, it is better to be cautious, I am afraid that it will be troublesome if it is infected with wind and cold at this time." ”

She was originally pointed out to come to Meiyuan to serve, knew the meaning of the master, and also had a little intention of clinging, but these days it seems that it is a dead flag

Drum.

The person who looks like snow in the mountains is like this in private.

With people in her heart, she naturally never looks down on others, what can she do?

Rong Jin didn't have much blood on his face, so he drank the ginger soup according to his words, and then turned out the pills and chewed them slowly.

The sweet and bitter smell of licorice spread between her lips and teeth, and she changed her new clothes, looking at the sky, and still went out.

But Ruyizhai still hung a sign saying that it was closed, and the doors and windows were closed.

Rong Jin stood not far away, looking at it in a daze, and his heart was a little empty.

But this loss did not last long, she quickly collected her mood, turned around and went to the silk shop on the street, and picked a red dress similar to the one that Bai Rui gave her.

Rong Jin carried his baggage and did not return to the Summer Palace immediately, as if he was wandering aimlessly on the long street.

Until she heard someone call her name, she looked up and saw that the curtain of the carriage on the side was opened, revealing a half familiar face, it was Xie Qiutong.

She looked bad, she looked extremely haggard, as if she hadn't slept all night.

Rong Jin stepped forward and greeted through the window: "Where are you going?" ”

"Go to the incense pillar on the immortal platform and ask for a peace charm." Xie Qiutong held her forehead, seeing that her cheeks were slightly red by the wind, she couldn't help but sigh, "In this weather, why are you stupidly walking outside?" Get to the car. ”

Without waiting for Rong Jin to hesitate, he urged again: "I'll send you first?" Or, do you want to go to the Immortal Tower? ”

Xianrentai is a famous grand scene outside Huyang City, legend has it that there were immortals feathered here thousands of years ago, so this place has heaven and earth to create, Zhong Lingyu is beautiful.

In addition to the locals of Huyang, there are often people in the nearby states and counties who come to burn incense and worship the Buddha, and ask the immortals for protection.

In the summer, the flood flooded half of the city, but the water only rose to the bottom of the steps of the immortal temple, and never crossed it.

Because of this, even the rogue rebels who had been in rebellion and plundered villages and towns in the early days were always afraid and did not offend this temple.

Xie Qiutong took a sip of tea and spoke eloquently.

Rong Jin sat upright, with the burden of the dress on his lap, and said softly: "You ask for peace charms for Chen ......"

"Yes," Xie Qiutong rubbed the corners of his forehead, "I'm going to see that person tonight, I can't rest assured." ”

Rong Jin saw Shen Heng come to deliver the invitation yesterday, and naturally understood who the "that" in her mouth was referring to, and she was relieved, but she didn't know where to start.

Seeing Xie Qiutong drooping his eyes sleepily, he didn't bother again.

It wasn't until the carriage stopped outside the temple that Xie Qiutong opened his eyes as if he had just woken up from a dream.

It was a cold winter, the flowers and trees were withered, and Rao was such a beautiful realm, and it was inevitable that it would be a little depressed. And because of the bad weather, there are not many pilgrims who come to worship the Buddha.

/>

Rong Jin carefully helped Xie Qiutong up the steps, entered the immortal temple, accompanied her to incense, worship the Buddha, and then ask for peace charms.

The yellow talisman was painted with cinnabar with intricate charms, and the monk first gave Xie Qiutong a piece and then handed it to Rong Jin.

Rong Jin was stunned, but he still took it with both hands and recited the Buddha.

On the other side of the table sat an elderly monk, with long eyebrows, snow-white beard, weathered face with ravines and ravines, drooping eyelids, and the temperament of an old god was exuding throughout his body.

Table case

On it, there is a sandalwood stick.

Xie Qiutong pinched the peace charm and hesitated for a while, and finally walked to the other side and said to the old monk: "Master Yuanyin, I want to ask for peace on behalf of my husband." ”

The old monk didn't say much, but just placed the stick holder in front of her: "Please." ”

With the shaking of the stick, the bamboo sticks collided back and forth, as if they had hit the heart, which was inexplicably a little unsettling.

When a sign fell out and fell on the table, Rong Jin's eyelids suddenly jumped, and then he saw the top of the signature clearly, and wrote "sign down" in a steady handwriting, and the next line of small characters was not very real.

Xie Qiutong could see it clearly, his face turned white in an instant, his lips trembled slightly, and he looked at the old monk with some pleading in his eyes: "What is the explanation of this sign?" ”

The old monk quietly picked up the bamboo stick, looked at it, and said slowly: "This is dangerous, but there is no endless road, and the dead wood may also be able to meet spring." ”

This sentence can barely be regarded as comfort, Xie Qiutong pressed the hand of the long case and tightened it slightly, and asked, "What if you don't go?" ”

The old monk looked compassionate: "Donor, if you are destined to have such a fate, it is not humanly possible." ”

Xie Qiutong was silent for a long time, not knowing what he was thinking about in his heart.

She drove out of the city with anxiety and anxiety without closing her eyes all night, but she was physically and mentally exhausted when she got such a result.

Seeing that her body was unstable, Rong Jin stepped forward to help her, and said in a low voice: "Madam, even if it is for the child in the womb, you must take care of yourself." ”

"That's it." Xie Qiutong held Rong Jin's hand back, smiled dismally, wanted to leave but stopped but stopped, and said to her, "Do you have anything you want to ask?" I'll wait for you. ”

Rong Jin thought about it and shook his head again.

She used to copy Buddhist scriptures for peace of mind, but it was useless to ask about some things, so it was better not to ask.

Out of the Immortal Temple, Rong Jin helped Xie Qiutong to get into the carriage, and after the guard collected the footstool, he did not drive back immediately, and replied in a low voice: "Along the way, it seems that someone is following ......."

"But just following from a distance, as if there was no malice."

An Shi is not an ordinary nursing home, Xie Qiutong can trust his judgment, his frowning brows stretched slightly, and then looked at Rong Jin.

Rong Jin raised his hand and rubbed his eyelids, and responded softly: "Maybe it came with me." ”

Except for going back to Ruyizhai, when she went out, she didn't ask Changfeng to ask the accompanying guards, and Shang Lu was on an errand and didn't accompany her anymore.

But Rong Jin knew in his heart that Shen Yu couldn't rest assured that she would go out alone.

There is no one on the surface, but eighty percent of them follow secretly.

She was already aware of it when she was wandering around the streets today, and now the guard's words completely confirmed this suspicion.

After getting her sentence, Xie Qiutong didn't ask the bottom of the question, but just ordered to go back to the city.

Each has his own thoughts, and he is silent all the way.

It's just that not long after entering the city, there was a faint noise, and listening to the battle, it seemed that many people had gathered.

The carriage was blocked and had to be stopped for the time being.

"Shen Xiang ordered to behead the officials who had deceived their superiors and deceived their subordinates and embezzled disaster relief money and food on the street...... An Shi's gaze crossed the crowd of excited and applauding people, paused, and said in a low voice, "I also invited the family members of the big families in Huzhou to be punished." ”

The summer floods flooded the fertile fields, and there was almost no harvest, and the life of the people in the winter was even more difficult.

There are also people who stock up on food early, thinking that they can take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune.

Shen Yu previously intended to make these big families open a warehouse for disaster relief in order to tide over the difficulties, but most of them were pushing back and thinking about perfunctory prevarication.

Now he specially invited people to watch the punishment, but in fact it is no different from shock.

A magistrate on the beheading platform was a descendant of the Yuan family, where did the elderly old man see the corpse of his own nephew, although he was forced to sit down, but when he saw the blood of others, he had already rolled his eyes and fainted.

Shen Yu turned his face without warning, and when Lu Jia got the news, it was too late for the clan to reveal it.

The other few who watched the punishment were not much better, all of them were colorless and trembling.

None of them were innocent, but it was the first time they had seen such a bloody scene, and they were almost disgusted by the thick bloody atmosphere.

Looking at Shen Yu who was quietly sipping tea not far away, he always felt that this madman seemed to be preparing to press them on the beheading table.

Rong Jin lifted the curtain and looked at it, and saw the embarrassed appearance of the heads of the families watching the execution on the high platform, and also saw Shen Yu who had been spending a lot of time.

He was not wearing the purple official uniform, but the usual style of white, wearing a crane, and it was vaguely visible that there was a hand stove on his lap, and he used the azure Buddha lotus cover that she sewed.

At first glance, he looks like a weak scholar.

After Rong Jin smelled the blood, he immediately lowered the curtain, afraid that the smell would smoke Xie Qiutong: "It seems that it won't be finished for a while, so let's take a detour." ”

Xie Qiutong pressed the incense handkerchief under his nose and answered.

It was only then that the carriage turned around, and without taking two steps, it stopped again.

Changfeng's voice then came: "On the order of Shen Xiang, come and invite Miss Rong." ”

Xie Qiutong's face was slightly gloomy, but there was no look of surprise, obviously he had known where she came from for a long time.

Rong Jin was not much surprised by this.

After all, her origin is not clear, if Xie Qiutong is really defenseless, he can talk to her, how can he survive in the palace and open such a shop?

The two of them tacitly agreed, but neither of them broke it.!
