Chapter 249: Don’t go away tonight

Su adults make a fake, this time is really suffered internal injuries. The back of a large footprint-shaped bruises not to mention, but also a dull pain in the chest, every breath tugs on the lungs as if, talking can not lift the breath.

After King Yu helped him into the carriage, he sat up himself.

Su Yan said, “The eunuch said that the injury is not serious and will be fine after a few doses of soup. Your Highness doesn’t need to personally escort, I can go back myself.”

Yu Wang where assured, had to send people to the bed in the bedchamber before he would let go.

“Mother’s side, I do not know how to persuade the royal brother, the eye looks to be letting you go, in case the future and then find you trouble …… or you temporarily go to my royal residence to live for a while?”

Su Yan shook his head, “The name is not correct, and it will draw criticism in vain, whether it is to say that I am climbing the clan, or that the king is enlisting courtiers, it is not good.”

King Yu immediately brain twitch, want to say “you come to be the Yu Wangfei will be justified”, but also worried that it will anger (only in front of him) public and private Su Royal Secretary, the pro-exit and swallowed back.

“There is no need to be so nervous. I see that although the empress dowager had an angry face before she left, it doesn’t look like she is targeting me, I think the imperial master used some reason to convince her.” Su Yan laughed, “Besides, if I am worried every day that I will be cleaned up by the empress dowager, then what kind of official would I still be, hurry up and hang up my crown and go back home.”

King Yu loved his spontaneity, so he also smiled and said, “OK, you have a good heart. I’ll leave a set of guards in your residence, in case there is something to bring to block a block, can also inform me in time.”

Considering the need for more rest for the injured, King Yu didn’t bother, and after a few words of advice, he got up to take his leave.

Su Yan courteously sent the guest off in front of the bed.

King Yu walked to the door, raised his eyebrows as if on a whim, and then folded back, leaning down and saying, “This king has saved your life again.”

Is this a show of grace, or an invitation for credit? Su Yan secretly skimmed his mouth, but after all, he was saved by him, so he arched his hand and replied, “Thank you, Your Highness, for saving my life. If the king has any dispatch that is reasonable, I will not refuse to comply.”

King Yu thought for a moment and said, “Overdrive misses you, come to the royal residence as a guest sometime later? Bring him some sugar figures and sugar gourds, he loves those.”

Su Yan suspected that A overdrive children simply did not remember him. After all, the time together is so short, where the child remembers people, was used by the unscrupulous father as a front.

–Trying to trick me into giving you a free babysitter again! But his own words had already been spoken, so he could only promise, “When I have time on my hands, I will go and visit Little World Son.”

King Yu smiled with satisfaction and casually pulled out a sweat-wiping pad tucked under Su Yan’s pillow and tucked it into his pocket and left.

Su Yan stared at his back: took two of my handkerchiefs, right? Prince, why do you always love to do this kind of trivial things?

Never mind, it’s just a paddle, he doesn’t bother.

Not long after, Su Xiaobei came in and reported, “My lord, Tongzhi Shen led the team back to the city. I heard that the escaped Mr. Crane was not captured.”

Su Yan said, “Just come back safely, if you didn’t catch it, you didn’t catch it, where is he?”

Su Xiaobei: “Went to the Northern Zhenfu Division.”

Su Yan pondered, and suddenly slapped the bedpan: ”He’s weak-minded! Otherwise, definitely have to come to me first to see. Xiao Bei, you help me run a trip, just tell him that …… the emperor ordered me to reprimand him for his incompetence, and told him to come over immediately to be scolded.”

Su Xiaobei hid a smile and walked away.

The more Su Yan thought about it, the more he felt bad, and suddenly recalled an old incident – in Lin Hua Pavilion, Ruan Hong Banana had said that Chang Chun Yuan was spreading rumors about Shen Qi.

What kind of gossip could be taken up by the herdsmen of a men’s style house? It’s also a matter of reputation. He had long wanted to find out what was going on, but he was busy dealing with the bombing case, and then one thing after another, he put it on hold.

Now along with the suspicions turned out, Su Yan a do not do anything, and called the little Jing in, instructed him to think of a way to go to the Changchun courtyard to inquire about.

Su Xiaojing may not be reliable to do other things, this kind of gossip gossip job than anyone is keen, patting his chest to ensure that must be asked clearly.

After the two boys left, Su Yan thought a lot of things, the Wei family and the Empress Dowager, the Royal Master and the young master, as well as hiding the end of the “game” and the game has not yet finished the game of chess. He also thought of last night’s injuries Ruan Hongjiao, I do not know how the injury, intends to wait until tomorrow, I can move a little, run a Mr. Yingxu’s medical hut to visit.

At dusk, Shen Qi came, carrying a pocket of strobilus fruit.

He sat in front of the bed, carefully peeling the fruit with a small knife, with his head bowed and his eyes restrained as if he was an honest descendant of a good family. After peeling, he used the tip of the knife to tie the right size of fruit meat, and sent it to Su Yan’s mouth.

Su Yan turned his face away a bit and didn’t take it, staring at Shen Qi and asking, “How is Shi Qianhu?”

“The man is awake and physically unharmed after the drug has worn off, but there’s no sign of the man who came to hijack the prison wagon. The same goes for the other Tee Riders.” Shen Qi patiently held up the pulp waiting for him to open his mouth.

Su Yan hesitated briefly and said, “Fortunately, those remaining members of the Vacuum Cult have not lost their conscience, and only robbed the prison wagon without harming the jinyi guards who escorted the wagon, or else the lives of Shi Qianhu and the others would be in danger.”

Shen Qi’s hand stopped in mid-air, gazing at Su Yan with a somewhat somber expression, “What are the doubts, although directly ask, my husband’s heart has been emptied out to you, what’s the difference between a few words of truth? Why do we have to come to the point of side conversations between us.”

Su Yan was so said by him, the guilt in his heart was born, opened his mouth and took the fruit meat, chewing it carefully.

The flavor is too bland compared to latter-day apples, only slightly sweet, and the aroma is quite unique.

When Su Yan finished eating, Shen Qi cut another petal, this time using the tip of the knife to cut a sharp vector shape on the outer layer of the fruit flesh, like two long pointed ears, pulled upwards and turned into a small rabbit. He picked it with the tip of the knife and sent it to the other person’s mouth again.

The rabbit, Pimpinago, is a bit cute in shape, but poked in the belly by a sharp blade, an icy mix of tenderness and violence.

Su Yan sighed silently, opened his mouth and ate, then asked bluntly, “The remaining members of the Vacuum Sect hate the Brocade Guards to the bone, which has no undead conscience, when they robbed the prison wagon, why did they only leave the lives of Chien-Tu Shih and the others, not afraid of them waking up early and spoiling the big event?”

“Good question.” Shen Qi said, “If it were me, I would have to make up for them one by one before I could save them without worrying about them – unless it’s too late.”

Su Yan pondered. Shen Qi continued, “I led the team to open the road in front of me, not too far away from the team escorting the prison wagon, and at any time may turn back to check. In this case, the other side naturally wants to kill quickly, hurry to open the prison car, and immediately transfer out of the city after receiving Mr. Crane, where else can they waste time on killing.”

–This speculation is in line with common sense. Su Yan nodded silently and asked, “The felon’s prison wagon was specially made by the Northern Zhenfu Division, and everything from the door locks to the shackles were made of fine steel, so how did they open the chains?”

Shen Qi said: “I checked the lock chain, there are many small gaps caused by chopping, which means that the people who robbed the prison car used brute force at first, but it didn’t work. But the lock still opened, I checked the lock hole, found that there are small traces of sharp tools scraping, indicating that there are lock picking experts among them. There are also experts in the Jinyiwei who specialize in opening all kinds of locks, and after taking the lock to him, it confirmed my speculation.”

Su Yan felt that this speculation was justified, so he nodded and said, “I’ve asked you once first, so that the imperial master can cross-examine you later, so that you don’t have to be hasty in your wording. Of course, if your explanation is unconvincing even to me, the Imperial Master will be even less likely to believe it.”

Shen Qi’s hand movement was a beat, and he started to cut the rabbit’s ears again, “Then do you believe me?”

Su Yan smiled up, “If I don’t even believe in you, who else under the sky can I believe in?”

“…… You don’t love to eat pibil fruits, you don’t have to force yourself.” Shen Qi put down the fruit meat, wiped his hands clean with a cotton towel, wiped the blade again, and took it back to his waist.

“Who said that, I love it.” Su Yan went to get the large half of the pulp that was left to be cut.

Shen Qi snatched a step ahead of him and stuffed the fruit flesh into his own mouth, gnawing only the core in three or two strokes. He threw the core into the empty plate and said, “The fruits you love to eat are either very sweet, very sour, or have a special flavor. This kind of flavorless fruit, you don’t love to eat.”

Su Yan held his hand, a little sad in her heart, “Qilang, if you like someone, you can’t help but love what you love and hate what you hate, this is human nature. You have to give me the chance to like it.”

Shen Qi’s fingers rubbed in his palm, and said in a deep voice: “I just want you to do as you please, without the slightest hint of reluctance, not even for my sake. I often ate Frequent Fruit, it was after I knew you, not because I liked its bland flavor, but its name.”

The fruit of frequency, the fruit of acacia. How can an inch of acacia be bland?

Su Yan couldn’t help but feel his eyes moist. He felt that in his hand, Shen Qi’s fingertips were slowly depicting a familiar pattern – the heart shape he drew in the other party’s hand when he said goodbye to Shen Qi on the night of the Lantern Festival – and now it was sent back in its original form and also bloomed in his hand.

Shen Qi finished drawing, rolled up his fingers root by root, clutched the heart, and said, “My heart is still the same as the gentleman’s heart – is this ‘heart’ the other heart?”

Su Yan reached out her arms to hug him and choked, “Yes. Qilang, I shouldn’t …… I ……”

Shen Qi returned a closer embrace and said in a warm voice: “There’s no need to say it out loud, I know. If you don’t even suspect this, you won’t be the clear-headed and chesty Su Qinghe I know.”

Guiltily and touched, Su Yan stroked his groove-filled back, a hint of eagerness in his slight voice: “Don’t you leave tonight.”

Shen Qi was tickled by this never-before-initiated invitation to a ball of heart fire, and while his lips and tongue intertwined in a deep kiss, he stripped off his upper body clothing and pressed him onto the quilt.

After kissing for a while, Su Yan couldn’t help but cough. Shen Qi took a deep breath, suppressed the dryness that filled his heart, rolled him into a prone position, and checked the large black and purple bruise on his undershirt.

“I heard, Cining Palace guards did it.” Shen Qi tried his best to calm his panting, took out a bottle of ointment from his pocket, applied it to the bruise, and gently rubbed it away with the root of his palm, “Today, the Imperial Temple was really dangerous and dangerous, and for the first time, I actually felt grateful to King Yu.”

“…… There’s still the Imperial Master,” Su Yan said sullenly, “The Imperial Master appears to be unconcerned on the surface, but if he didn’t have the heart to save me, how could he have rushed here from the palace in a hurry. To save me again, and to take into account the mother and son relationship with the Empress Dowager, and to take into account the reaction of the court, it’s really hard for him.”

Shen Qi’s hand stalled, and soon continued to knead again.

“I know that the Imperial Master has been guarding against you. Suspiciousness is a common disease of emperors, and he is no exception, especially since you are not of the same temperament as him, which is even more unfavorable to you. However, I will do my best to mediate, so that the emperor will trust you and reuse you. Even if his wariness of you is hard to dispel, he will at least stop suppressing you out of some sort of balance.”

“I’m happy that you have this heart to protect me.” Shen Qi said, unable to resist lowering her head and pecking his bare neck.

Su Yan vaguely felt that there was something wrong, but at this moment the pulsating warmth engulfed everything, he turned his head backward and kissed Shen Qi.

Before Shen Qi left, she left two pimples on his pillow and said, “The ointment is a bit pungent, so sniffing the fruity scent might make it better to sleep.”

Su Yan had trouble sleeping because of his chest pains, and finally fell asleep after tossing and turning for a long time.

He seemed to have dreamed a dream that was bound and glued and hard to break free of, and woke up with a bewildering emptiness, having forgotten what the dream was about.

After sitting on the bed and staying for a while, it occurred to him that he should first write a “Impeachment of Wei’s Twelve Crimes Speech” to organize the impeachments he had previously made at the court meeting into a text and formally submit it to the emperor.

The petition not only included all the crimes of the Wei family, but also included the results of the trial of the relevant cases, as well as the court’s appeal to “get rid of the corrupters and traitors, and to rectify the discipline”.

He knew that once this zhangzhi was published in the di newspaper and announced to the world, the shock waves that would be created would be far better than the one that brought down Feng to the evil.

There is no longer any way to dodge the thunder and clouds or swords and shadows.

From now on, he would truly stand on the cusp of the imperial court, meeting all the attention from allies and political enemies, relatives and enemies, those who understood and those who did not.

He wanted to stand firmly in place, sheltering what should be sheltered, resisting what should be resisted, giving back what should be given back, and ultimately accomplishing the flourishing rivers and mountains in his heart.
