Chapter 177: Past Events
The night was like a promise, there was no one on the empty and lonely street in front of the city, and Song Yuan walked alone on the street, looking decadent.
The palace is not far from the Guogong Mansion, but he has walked for a long time during this short journey.
"Leave the palace. Jin Guan's words lingered in his ears and could not be dissipated, so that every step he took, he felt like a thousand catties of iron were tied to his feet.
Does he think he is in the way or does he feel that he is not of any help to him anymore? Song Yuan couldn't figure it out, and a bitter smile reflected on his pale face.
Before he walked to the Guogong Mansion, he looked at the home that he had not often come back to, and thought of his mother, who often looked forward to his return home, and his father, who was now lying on the bed with a vicious illness and aged many years in an instant, and in a trance, his memory returned to his childhood.
At that time, he was just a child, and like all children, he loved to play and make trouble, but the difference was that he was more mature and sensible than other children, so he knew how to be measured, and even if he was playing, he would never do anything excessive. And this may be the reason why Emperor Xi valued him back then!
I still remember that year, it was my father's birthday banquet, and Emperor Xi brought a brocade official as big as himself to celebrate his birthday. That was the first time he saw Jinguan, and at that time, Jinguan was already a little bully. Because of the scramble for a kick, he beat another child with a blue nose and swollen face, and afterwards argued that it was someone who shot first, but he just wanted to protect himself, and he made a heavier move.
Emperor Xi blamed him for not knowing the severity, but he argued that if he didn't hit harder, he would be the one who was injured, and he would be the one who was laughed at if he was swollen like a big pig's head. He also said that he was the sixteenth highness of the Great Xi Dynasty and a member of the royal family, and if he was defeated by someone else's child and spread it, others would think that the people of the royal family were too weak and would damage the reputation of the royal family...... Anyway, under the strong words of Jin Guan, no one dared to blame Jin Guan for this at that time, even the father of the child who was beaten, Lord Luo, who was a high-ranking official in the court at the time, was fooled into thinking that he was not well disciplined, causing his child to collide with Jin Guan.
However, at that time, there was a person who did not choose to "go with the flow" with these people because of Jinguan's identity, but told everyone present what he saw truthfully, and told the truth about the fight between Jinguan and the child.
It was true that the two of them fought over the ball, but one thing was wrong from the beginning. In fact, the ball was brought from home by the little son of Lord Luo's family, and the Jin Guan saw that it was good-looking and chic, so he wanted to borrow it to play, but the child refused, and deliberately kicked it in front of the Jin Guan, and the little Jin Guan was red-eyed.
The child is anxious, and Jinguan's temperament is even more impatient, so he wants to go up and grab it, and he grabs it, so he fights. In the chaos, Jin Guan didn't pay attention, so he punched the child, and the child didn't care about Jin Guan's identity, so he punched back with a backhand, and then the two scuffled together.
And all this happened to be seen by Song Yuan, who was passing by.
When he told what he saw and heard truthfully, Jin Guan was so angry that he glared angrily, but Emperor Xi didn't, but appreciated his upright temperament at a young age, and there was no shortage of beautiful words in front of Song Yuanzhi.
Later, Song Yuan was asked to enter the palace by Emperor Xi, and he followed Jinguan as Jinguan's personal attendant.
At the beginning, Jin Guan was very dissatisfied with such a little bit who swept his face in front of the public, and often troubled him, but no matter how Jin Guan teased him, he would not show any anger, and over time, Jin Guan also felt bored, so he didn't continue to embarrass him.
However, it was because of such a thing that Jin Guan really opened his heart to accept Song Yuan.
During the Spring Festival of Song Yuan's first year in the palace, according to the convention, the palace only gave Song Yuan half a month to go home. At that time, Song Yuan was just a child, and he had already caused great harm to his little heart by letting him leave his parents, and he was only allowed to stay at home for half a month during the New Year, and before he could fully enjoy the warmth of his family, he was going to return to the palace again, which was undoubtedly a little difficult for him to accept.
After returning to the palace, Song Yuan was depressed every day.
Although Jin Guan has a lot of nerves, he can also glimpse his unhappiness from Song Yuan's lonely expression every day. But other people's affairs, if others don't want to say, Jinguan will not take the initiative to ask, although he wants to care about it, but he has never taken that step, until one day, Song Yuan, who has always been with Jinguan, did not appear, and he began to be a little nervous.
Maybe it was the company that made Jin Guan feel relieved about Song Yuan's exposure to him at the beginning, and Jin Guan was no longer as tired of Song Yuan's existence as he was at the beginning, but became anxious because he didn't see him. He ordered people to look for Song Yuan, but he couldn't find it when he searched through the entire Qinghe Palace.
Later, Jin Guan found Song Yuan sobbing with his head buried in his knees in the firewood room.
Jin Guan pushed open the door of the firewood room, walked in quietly, walked to Song Yuan's side and squatted down, for some reason, he felt a little distressed.
Song Yuan only remembered that at that time, Jin Guan gently put his hand on his back and patted it gently, but he didn't say anything, but he was himself, raised his head and looked at Jin Guan with teary eyes, and spit out: "I miss home......"
At that time, Jin Guan didn't say anything and took him into his arms.
To this day, Song Yuan still remembers that the warmth brought to him by that embrace, it was an indescribable feeling, but because of that embrace, he has since strengthened his determination to follow Jinguan to the death.
Later, they released their suspicions, and although they were masters and servants on the surface, in fact, they were no different from brothers.
Jin Guan will take Song Yuan with him wherever he goes, and Song Yuan will accompany Jin Guan wherever he goes, and he will never be absent from any occasion. However, Jin Guan's buttocks for doing bad things asked him to wipe it, he had to accept the punishment for sneaking out of the palace, and he was also the one who apologized after offending people...... However, even so, he still felt that the days by Jinguan's side were much more interesting than the life of a family son who was as plain as water.
The past is vivid, but now, he wants to let him leave his side, how does he not lose it.
"Young master?" a shout pulled back Song Yuan, who had been standing outside the door for a long time, and he came back to his senses and sorted out his thoughts.
"Young master, why don't you come in, it's so cold outside, be careful of catching a cold!" Steward Zhu opened the door and hurriedly pulled him in.
"How is Father?" Steward Zhu closed the door, and Song Yuan asked about Song Yuanzhi's condition with concern.
