Those Years In Quest Of Honour Mine

"After the Longevity Day, you will return to Qian'an with me."

As soon as he entered the city, Zhong Wan told Lin Si: "If there is anything unfinished, you should deal with it early."

Lin Si was startled and gestured: I can't go, I have to stay in Beijing to help you.

"No need." Zhong Wan shook his head, "After seeing Xuan Rui Xuanyu, the emperor should be completely relieved. It's useless for you to stay here. It's better to go back with us. In the future, the sky will be high and the sea will be wide. Live."

Without waiting for Lin Si to refute, Zhong Wan said again: "You also said that Yu She doesn't miss old feelings. He opened one eye and closed one eye to let you go last time. What about next time? I'm afraid that there will still be fights. The fifth princes have the support of the Yu palace, and the fourth princes may not be able to hold them. You are not safe in his palace. I can't keep you here."

Lin thought, no longer insisted, nodded hesitantly.

Zhong Wan patted him on the shoulder, "Go ahead."

Lin Si kowtowed Zhong Wan, and went quietly as he did when he came. Zhong Wan raised the curtain of the car, looked at the city gate that was not far away, and adjusted his clothes.

Zhong Wan was worried about being questioned. He didn't get off the bus. Outside Yan Pingshan went to hand over the papers with the small officials of the Ministry of Rites and the officials guarding the city. They received the news that Qian'an Wangfu was coming to Beijing half a month ago. Chao Xuanrui's car saluted, and asked about the number of servants accompanying him, leading everyone into the city.

The former palace of King Ning was taken back by Jinshang. After being repaired, it is now the residence of the fifth prince Xuanxin. When passing by the palace of Ning, Zhong Wan opened the curtain.

When he took the throne today, at least he was very generous with his younger brother, and he was granted a mansion by the king, and he chose a high-ranking lady to give him a marriage. He had a posture of an elder brother like a father.

At that time, King Ning’s outside family Zhong Mansion had already committed a crime. Zhong’s family had many girls and boys, and two imperial concubines, but there were not many males in the family. Basically all of them were involved. There was a boy who was barely involved because he was too young. Later, he was taken into the mansion by King Ning and recognized as a righteous son, blocking Yushitai's mouth.

With the shelter of King Ning, Zhong Wan grew up carefree.

After receiving such great favor from King Ning, he almost failed to save Xuanrui when the incident happened. Zhong Wan had no face to look at the place where he grew up. After taking a deep breath, he lowered the car curtain.

Everyone was taken to another mansion, the place is not big, but it is still exquisite.

Yan Pingshan is not accustomed to dealing with these little officials. Zhong Wan himself took a few purses in his sleeves, jumped out of the car, walked over and greeted them intimately, and smiled at the little officials of the Ministry of Rites. .

"I also ask the prince to rest here. It's best to freshen up a little bit." A small official smiled and said, "Before and after the Shenshi, the palace will come to invite people."

Zhong Wan handed the lotus up, "Thank you."

Zhong Wan had no time to rest after sending out the good students from the ceremony department, rubbing her sore neck, and went to the inner courtyard to greet everyone to clean up the young lady’s room. Zhong Wan stood in the courtyard and asked through the curtain, "Miss’s boudoir is furnished. Is it okay?"

Xuan Congxin was seen by him since he was a child, and he didn't avoid suspicion. He walked out with a fox fur cloak, "I have done it all the way and finally sew it, you see if it fits."

Zhong Wan hurriedly took it, and smiled: "So these days it was made for me? I thought it was for your eldest brother..."

"You are more afraid of the cold." Xuan Congxin is much earlier than her innocent and stubborn sibling brother. She has a cool temper, and her tone of voice is light when she cares about people. "It is really cold in Jingzhong, so go to the house early. Don't get sick again when you come back."

"I know." Zhong Wan smiled and wrapped the cloak, and promised, "This is going."

Xuan Congxin looked around, silently noted the size, and said, "It's too late to change, you wear it first, and when someone is sent to you at night, I will close the neckline."

Zhong Wan couldn't laugh or cry: "I'll forget it."

Xuan Congxin didn't say much, and after speaking, he turned and entered the house.

Zhong Wan didn't have time to rest, then turned around and went to Xuanrui courtyard.

Xuan Rui's face was very bad.

Half of them came back to Beijing and remembered the old things, and half was frightened by Zhong Wan.

Zhong Wan didn't expect that the boss of Xuanrui was so young that he couldn't help but feel scared, a little embarrassed, and leaned at the door with a smile: "If the prince goes to the sage like this, the sage will be able to help the poor of Qian'an, even the prince can't eat enough."

Xuanrui knew that Zhong Wan was teasing him, but still couldn't laugh. He pursed his dry lips, eyes full of anxiety, "I have been flustered since I entered the city, and my mind is full of the scene of me being trapped in the palace seven years ago. , Father is gone, you have been taken away, I..."

Zhong Wan sighed.

Zhong Wan whispered: "It's me who is not good. I was also desperate to find you at the time, but the news from Prince Yu's mansion was incomprehensible. I... forget it, it's all over."

Xuan Rui worried: "If he asks me, ask me..."

"He won't ask about things that make you embarrassed. He doesn't want to mention old things more than you." Zhong Wan said sternly, "He just wants to be at ease. You can make him feel at ease. If you really want to end you, then Qian'an gave you a pot of poisoned wine, why bother calling you here? Do you think the history books are not enough?"

Xuan Rui looked a little better when he heard that, Zhong Wan said softly: "It's all over, come back... I'll send you there."

"Really?" Xuan Rui's eyes lit up, "You accompany me into the palace?"

"Of course it's fake." Zhong Wan smiled, "I think, can I get in? I'm guarding outside the palace."

Xuan Rui smiled helplessly, but finally felt relieved.

At the time of Shen, there was indeed someone from the palace, and only Xuan Rui and Xuan Yu were heard.

Zhong Wan followed as a servant, but was stopped before the gate of the palace was even reached. Xuan Rui Xuanyu got out of the carriage and followed the people in the palace.

The two followed the eunuchs, being careful all the way, and they didn't know how long they had been walking around. They finally saw the emperor and knocked on their heads.

Xuanrui didn't dare to look up at all, asking what to answer, speaking not much louder than a mosquito, and relying on the help of the old eunuch to speak loudly.

In comparison, Xiao Xuanyu responded more appropriately. He was only two or three years old when King Ning Incident, and he didn’t remember anything. He grew up carefree these years and was much more courageous than his elder brother. When he was questioned by the emperor , And looked up at the emperor, secretly surprised.

This "Uncle Emperor" was a little too old, he looked like he was sixty, and the grandfather who was Xuanyu was old enough.

Emperor Chong'an has gradually become older in the past few years, and his speech is a little short of anger. He looked at Xiao Xuanyu carefully, smiled kindly, and asked about his schoolwork.

Before Xuan Yu spoke, Xuan Rui first secretly broke out in a cold sweat.

Back then, Emperor Chong'an asked Xuanrui the same thing. The next day, he and Zhong Wan were sent to the palace.

Emperor Chong'an... would he use this pretext to keep Xuan Yu in Beijing?

Xuan Rui was in a state of anxiety, Emperor Chong'an had given Xiao Xuanyu a few words casually, and Xuan Yu answered them one by one.

Emperor Chong'an nodded in satisfaction, and said warmly: "Very good, how about your brother's husband? How is your knowledge, is it strict?"

Xuan Yu lowered his head and replied, "I didn't extend the teacher, but followed..."

Although Xuan Yu was young, she instinctively felt that she couldn't say Zhong Wan's name, so she paused and said, "I learned it from a literate housekeeper at home."

Emperor Chong'an was silent for a moment and asked, "Is Guiyuan teaching you?"

Zhong Wan, the word is far away.

Xuan Yu frowned in confusion. How did you know this?

Emperor Chong'an slowly said, "It's natural to have him teach you."

Emperor Chong'an spoke slowly and seemed to be in a trance. It took a while before he said, "If he had entered the palace exam back then..."

Xiao Xuanyu listened quietly, not daring to answer. After waiting for a long time, Emperor Chong'an didn't say any further. He waved his hand and didn't ask about the two of them again. Xuan Rui secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After a while, it was getting late, and Emperor Chong'an seemed to be a little bit weak. He gave two people a table of royal meals, and the old eunuch took them with him.

Xuanrui Xuanyu was taken to the Xiaonuan Pavilion, no other people, Xuanyu asked in a low voice: "How come the emperor heard about Zhong Wan, so..."

The old eunuch who was serving next to the emperor came in with the person who passed the meal, and Xuan Yu shut up immediately. The corner of the old eunuch's mouth was slightly bent, pretending not to hear, and he served the two of them.

"The old slave just heard about it." The old eunuch said with a smile, "The schoolwork of the little majesty was taught by Master Zhong himself?"

Xuan Yu Nahan: "Father-in-law also knows Zhong Wan?"

Behind the old eunuch, a little servant hid his mouth and smiled silently.

Who doesn't know Zhong Wan, who is in love with the world?

Xiao Xuanyu had naturally heard of those things, and realized that they were laughing at Zhong Wan, and her face turned pale.

Xuan Rui glanced at Xuan Yu: The eunuchs next to Emperor Chong'an were not something they could offend.

Xuan Yu bowed her head, stiffly grilling rice.

The old eunuch turned his head and glanced at the little waiter, and said unhurriedly while serving the dishes: "Naturally know, the youngest man in this dynasty, who doesn't know?"

Xuan Yu looked up. He didn't know that Zhong Wan was so good, so he stayed for a while: "Huh?"

The old eunuch smiled and said slowly, "Although the Zhong family has been defeated, Lord Ning raised him like a son. Such a family, such a background, such a talent, which government will not be able to go to three provinces and six branches in the future? Young Master Zhong is proud and arrogant. He wants to take the right path of the imperial examination. He has also taken a steady pace... Chunwei's Xieyuan, Qiuwei's Huiyuan, if not..."

What the old eunuch could not say, "The old slave heard that the youngest champion in the previous dynasty was 18 years old. If Master Zhong could enter the palace exam..."

"I'm afraid it's the youngest champion in a few dynasties." The old eunuch pulled out the dust from his waist, turned and hit the little eunuch who didn't know anything about it.

Outside the palace, even the wise man Zhong Sanyuan stood up in the cold wind and sneezed.

"Really cold……"

Zhong Wan had been waiting for two hours, and the carbon in the furnace was all burned out. He was afraid of freezing his legs, so he simply got out of the car and walked back and forth to move his hands and feet.

It's already Hour, and it's getting dark early, Zhong Wan glanced at the gate of the palace from a distance, actually not worried.

In the worst case, the Emperor Xuan Yu stayed as a proton, but this may also be very small.

It makes sense to leave the feudal prince Shizi holding the military power in Beijing for education. What is Xuan Yu?What to guard against?Prevent Xuan Rui from gathering dozens of rebels in Qian'an?

Qian'an is so sparsely populated that people have to be rescued by the court every three to five times. Zhong is like an emperor. Hearing that Qian'an has rebellion, he is the first to agree, wishing this group of poor ghosts would roll to another hilltop and save years of relief. .

Zhong Wan rubbed his hands stiffly, his hands were cold and he lost consciousness, and now he was supported by the heat in his chest.

Suddenly there was the sound of carriages and horses in the distance, and Zhong Wan lifted his spirits and looked over.

As the car gradually approached, the lights on the carriage shook, and the word "Yu" was printed on the lights.

Zhong Wan snorted in his heart.

The carriages of Yu Wangfu gradually approached, and Zhong Wan's thoughts were flying.

Princess Anguo has her own car, not her.

The leisure and miscellaneous branches of Prince Yu's Mansion can never come out of the palace at this time.

The only people sitting in the car could be Wangye Yu and that one.

Zhong Wan took a sigh of relief and said silently in his heart, Lord Yu, Lord Yu, Lord Yu...

On the carriage beside Zhong Wan is the lantern of Qian'an Palace. It is impossible for the other party to not see it. If it is Prince Yu in the carriage, he will not take care of it and will naturally leave, but if it is Yu She...

No matter how favored Yu She is, he hasn't attacked the Jue after all, and when he saw King Qian'an's frame, he still had to stop and avoid.

The carriage of Prince Yu's Mansion was getting closer and closer, and a layer of sweat formed on Zhong Wan's back in the cold wind.

After a while, the carriage stopped.

Zhong Wan closed her eyes and finished his mother's work.

Yu She's carriage slowly stopped by the side of the road, a steward got out of the car, saluted from a distance, and then got up and ran over.

Zhong Wan was overjoyed. In the cold weather, Yu She would not be willing to get out of the car. She should have sent the steward to ask, knowing that there was no one in the car, so she naturally left.

The steward greeted him and looked up and was stunned.

The manager immediately recognized Zhong Wan and said loudly: "Zhong...Master Zhong?!"

Zhong Wan collapsed, can you keep your voice down?!!

Zhong Wan grasped his frozen hand, took a deep breath, and smiled faintly: "It's me, the prince has not come out after entering the palace. Please also ask the little prince Yu to go first.

"I guessed it." The manager looked at Zhong Wan up and down, with an excited tone, "I'll tell the master to go first, you are here!"

"No, no..." Zhong Wan was choked by the cold wind and coughed, "No no..."

The steward had already ran back on the hot wheels.

Zhong Wan coughed and couldn't catch his breath while clutching the collar, wishing to eat the steward raw.

He watched from a distance as the steward ran to Yu She's carriage, bowed and whispered something.

It's over, it's over...

This time it's over...

Zhong Wan's heart beat fast, thinking about how to deal with Yu She in a while.

The steward stood in front of Yu She's car for a long time, and Zhong Wan wondered if Yu She had already arranged for the Imperial Forest Army to shoot him.

"This is... what is it?"

Zhong Wanshen couldn't say anything clearly. He squinted and looked at Yu She's car.

After half a cup of tea, the steward greeted him, and the carriages of Prince Yu's Mansion moved, slowly, and left.

Is this gone?

Zhong Wan quietly watched Yu Wangfu's car drive away, might as well be suddenly filled with cold wind into his lungs, and coughed earth shaking again.

The servant with the car hurried over to Fu Zhongwan and said eagerly: "Would you like to go back first? This...this..."

"No... it's okay." Zhong Wan helped the servant to slow down for a while, laughed at herself, "I frightened myself, thinking, thinking too much."

Zhong Wan watched Yu She's carriage drifting away, and smiled.

Yu She's temperament has not changed, it has nothing to do with himself.

Even if you knew you were here, what happened?

Get out of the car and tell yourself an old story?

Tomorrow, about everyone in Beijing will know that they will meet him at the gate of the palace.

Zhong Wan couldn't help laughing, then he really couldn't wash it.

Zhong Wan took a few bites of cold wind, her chest was cold, and her body seemed to be a little hot again. At a critical juncture, Zhong Wan didn't dare to make fun of his body. If he fell down at this juncture, those children would be really innocent.

Zhong Wan didn't dare to hold on, after listening to the servant's words, asked him to call himself a sedan chair.

Zhong Wan didn't let anyone follow, and got into the sedan chair by herself.

Zhong Wan leaned in the sedan and let out a sigh of relief.

For seven years, the romantic young man who was so affectionate at the time has become a broken sleeve in the storybook.

Nothing is visible anymore.

Zhong Wan's body was hot and cold, as if he was asleep or not asleep, confused and dreaming.

The man in the dream was a teenager and didn't like to talk. He sat under the window and wrote quietly. Outside the window was full of peach blossoms, and a little bit of English fell on his shoulder.

The bearer carried him and swayed for an unknown period of time, and finally got off the sedan chair.

Zhong Wan was shocked and woke up.

Zhong Wan rubbed his eyes, startled in a daze, so how could a person who is taciturn and behave like what Lin Si said?

Zhong Wan's body was frozen stiff, and when he was about to struggle to stand up, the car curtain was lifted.

Outside the sedan chair, Yu Ziyou, who was tall and dressed in ink-colored fox fur, lifted the sedan curtain blankly, and said every word: "Bell, return, far away."
