Shen Yanshu saw that her eyes didn't seem to be fake, and asked, "Do you really want to know?"

Concubine Ling said: "Naturally, when I entered the palace, I didn't dare to inquire about him, I don't know if he is doing well, I think that with his talent, there should be a better woman to accompany him in his life." ”

She has been silent in the harem for so many years, she originally thought that she had forgotten him a long time ago, but when she saw the jade gourd again that day, the past kept appearing in her mind, and she kept disturbing her mind.

There are some things that you can't forget, you can't erase.

Shen Yanshu said: "After you left the cabinet, he lost his soul and was decadent for a while, and the most unaccustomed thing was the officialdom and court, so he did not enter the office, but became a gentleman who taught calligraphy and painting, and I was his disciple." It's just ......"

"But what?" said Ling, raising an eyebrow.

Shen Yanshu continued: "About two years ago, he met the eldest princess Pingle in Jiangnan, and Pingle couldn't get used to his arrogance the most, so he asked him to cut off the index and middle fingers of his right hand, and now he can no longer draw with his right hand......"

"What!" When Concubine Ling heard this, she suddenly got up and looked at Shen Yanshu in shock, unable to believe it for a while.

You can't paint without your fingers, and for Huang Tingzhou, it's worse than killing him.

Shen Yanshu paused, his eyes were also full of sadness.

Although Huang Tingzhou has been cured now, but for him who can't write and draw with his right hand, it is really a torturous thing, Shen Yanshu is in a sinister situation now, Huang Tingzhou will not only care about his own sadness and ignore Shen Yanshu, but if there is no Shen Yanshu's matter, when he calms down, how lonely should he be?

Concubine Ling came back to her senses for a while and turned her head to look at Shen Yanshu.

"What can I do for him?" asked Ling.

Shen Yanshu shook his head: "You can't do anything, I think he doesn't want you to see what he looks like now, and he has never mentioned you." ”

Concubine Ling's eyes glistened with tears, and she looked up and tried not to let it fall.

"I want to see him. ”

————

There are more than 20 days left to be the day when Shen Yanshu got married, because of the help of the Song family and the Wei family, the affairs of the Shen family have been almost prepared, this day Shen Yanshu just sent away the grandmother who taught the rules, and before she could sit down, Qinglan trotted in.

"Miss...... Miss!" Qinglan panted and ran in front of Shen Yanshu, and her breathless appearance made Shen Yanshu hurriedly step forward to help her pat her on the back and smooth out.

The green kite on the side said, "What's so nonsense?"

Qinglan couldn't care less, gasped for two more breaths, and then said, "Fifth Miss is pregnant!"

As soon as Qinglan said this, even Shen Yanshu, who was usually calm, couldn't help but widen her eyes, Shen Yuyan was pregnant?

"This ......," said the blue kite, in surprise, "what is going on?"

Qinglan explained: "There was a mama who taught the rules just now, and the slave maid naturally didn't dare to come to report it. The second master and the old lady were both in the main courtyard, and they were very angry with the fifth miss, because the fifth miss had been having a poor appetite, and then fainted in the courtyard and was seen by the maid who sent the meal, so the eldest lady asked Dr. Ouyang to come over and ask for a pulse, who knew that the fifth miss was pregnant!"

More than a month ago, the Gu family planned to design Shen Yanshu, but they didn't want to design Gu Ziyi and Shen Yuyan into the circle, and now that the time is calculated, Shen Yuyan's belly is naturally the Gu family's child.

Qinglan continued: "Originally, the eldest lady wanted to suppress this matter, and after discussing with the old lady and the second master, they decided to let the fifth lady lose the child, and then find an honest family to marry at will, but the fifth lady said that she didn't say anything, so she made a crazy noise, which let others know." ”

With Shen Yuyan's temperament, since she is pregnant with the Gu family's flesh and blood, she will definitely not be willing to marry someone else like this.

Qing Kite said on the side: "The fifth lady is like this now, I am afraid that if I provoke the old lady, I will throw her to Zhuangzi again to fend for herself." ”

Qinglan said angrily: "That's what she deserves, I think she was so arrogant at the beginning, she has never been soft when she bullied us for so many years, and this time she finally suffered retribution!"

The two of them were talking, and when they saw Shen Yanshu's contemplative appearance, they were puzzled.

"Miss, what are you thinking?" asked the blue kite softly.

Shen Yanshu raised his eyes and said, "Qing Kite, if you spread this matter, it is best to spread it to the Hengguo Mansion." ”

Qinglan didn't understand: "Miss, now the old lady and the second master are already extremely disappointed in the fifth miss, she will naturally not be much better, but if the people of the Gu family know, will they take the fifth miss to the Gu family?"

A smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yanshu's mouth, and he said, "What I want is for Shen Yuyan to enter the Gu family." ”

Now the Gu family is a plate of scattered sand, and the people in the long room have no hope, and the concubines and side branches are staring at the position of the grandfather, although there is Hengguo Gong at this time to support the scene from chaos, but there is an undercurrent surging inside.

At this moment, if Shen Yuyan is allowed to pass, this sand that will not be scattered will be directly disrupted, and then they will be in chaos, see how they will deal with her Shen Yanshu?

Although Qing Kite didn't know what Shen Yanshu was thinking, she still did what she said, as long as it was ordered by the young lady, she had her reason.

"Ah Qi. Shen Yanshu called softly.

Ah Qi fell directly from the eaves and stood in front of Shen Yanshu: "Sister Yanshu." ”

"You go to the main courtyard to watch them, don't let Shen Yuyan have any accidents. Shen Yanshu said to him.

Ah Qi frowned: "Do you want me to protect that crazy woman? ”

Shen Yanshu chuckled and said, "You have to understand one thing, that is, valuable people need to be protected, but she is only valuable now." ”

Ah Qi didn't understand Shen Yanshu's words very well, but he could probably understand what she meant.

He nodded, heading in the direction of the main courtyard.

Shen Yanshu stood in place, but his thoughts kept flowing.

The chess pieces that were inserted in the Shen Mansion by the Hengguo Mansion at the beginning can now be sent back.

She looked up at the sky, the blue sky was picturesque, and it was cloudless, and it was indeed a good day to go out.

Changing into men's clothes, Shen Yanshu walked out of the back door.

The business of Yunshang Building is getting better and better, many people love to drink wine here and listen to the gossip and interesting things that others talk about, just after noon, this building is still overcrowded.

Shen Yanshu stepped into this Yunshang Building, and even saw people who came to chat with others with a bench, but fortunately, the place in this Yunshang Building is big enough, as long as they can afford tea, they will not drive people out.

"Shen Gongzi!" The guy in the store saw Shen Yanshu and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Childe, your guests are already waiting upstairs, and the little one will take you over." ”

"Good. Shen Yan replied, shook the folding fan in his hand, and followed the guy to the corner room on the second floor.

Pushing the door in, Shen Yanshu saw Concubine Ling sitting in the room.

Shen Yanshu glanced at the guy and told him to step back.

After closing the door, Shen Yanshu stepped forward and saluted: "Concubine Ling." ”

"This is outside the palace, it's better not to bring these rules, I'm your elder, you can call me Aunt Ling." Situ Linger said.

Shen Yan shook his head, but he complied with her wishes, and changed his voice and called "Aunt Ling." ”

"I only have an hour to spare. Situ Linger said.

Today, on the grounds that she misses her mother, she asks the emperor for the opportunity to leave the palace and ask her to clean the cemetery for her mother. Situ Zhe's family has been destroyed, and the emperor is naturally relieved of her, although there are some doubts, but Concubine Ling has always been filial, so she naturally agreed.

Shen Yanshu took her from the small room to the backyard of Yunshang Building, and then walked directly towards Yunzhai House.

Yesterday, he asked someone to bring a message to Huang Tingzhou, saying that he would bring a friend of his to see him today, and he was surprised at the time and said that he had any friends anywhere, and the girl must have been deceived.

I don't know how Old Man Huang will feel when he sees Situ Ling'er.

He must have wanted to see it but didn't dare to see it, right?

Situ Ling'er silently followed behind Shen Yanshu, not even paying attention to what kind of road was around, but at the moment when Shen Yanshu's footsteps stopped, his heart beat hard.

Shen Yanshu took her to the courtyard where Huang Tingzhou was, at this time Huang Tingzhou was practicing painting with his left hand in the courtyard, he was painting extremely seriously, frowning and always looking dissatisfied.

The painting on the paper is not satisfactory, but now he is no longer as irritable as he was at the beginning, even if he draws poorly, he does not tear the paper angrily, but just composures himself and slowly continues to paint.

Situ Ling'er stood at the door of the courtyard and looked in his direction, stunned.

Time seems to be particularly cruel to him, the young man who likes to wear a white dress in his memory has become the appearance that he has experienced so much, his eyes have become deep, his energetic face has become thin, he is wearing a gray gauze brocade robe, his thin body is hanging like a wooden frame, and even the hand holding the brush is thin as if only bones remain.

The mist covered her eyes, and Situ Ling'er's heart was filled with a burst of sourness, and the tears could no longer be controlled.

She slowly stepped forward and walked step by step in the direction where Huang Tingzhou was.

Shen Yanshu sighed, still standing at the gate of the courtyard and looking at them, he was not at ease to put Old Man Huang here, because Yun Hao said that he was afraid that Old Man Huang would be overly depressed and change back to his original appearance.

Hearing that there seemed to be a voice behind him, Huang Tingzhou stopped his pen, turned around, and saw Situ Ling'er who was coming towards him, his whole body was agitated, and he looked at her with wide eyes.

"Tingzhou, it's me. ”

Situ Ling'er wiped her tears and said in a choked voice, she was about to step forward, she wanted to tell Huang Tingzhou that she was Situ Ling'er, and wanted to say that she still remembered him over the years and thought of him all the time.

But before she could step forward, Huang Tingzhou's surprised eyes instantly turned into a frightened look, and he suddenly screamed and trembled.

"Tingzhou, you ...... What's wrong with you?" Situ Ling'er was frightened by his appearance, and was incoherent for a while.

"Ahh

Huang Tingzhou held his head and shouted to the sky, and suddenly ran into the room like crazy, slammed the door shut, and was stunned with his back against the door.
