Chapter 489 Reunion
At this time, Shang Ruyi, who was overjoyed, also began to notice that figure. Even she felt a little familiar, but not too familiar, and when she raised her hand, covering it When he was trying to make a careful identification on his forehead, he suddenly heard Yuwen Ye next to him take a breath.
“…!”
Shang Ruyi didn’t care to look forward anymore and turned to look at him in surprise.
Seeing that Yu Wenye's face had never shown much emotion or anger, a trace of surprise appeared on his face at this time, and even more clearly, there was an expression of joy in the surprise.
Then, he murmured: "Yes, it's him -"
Is it him? Who is it?
Shang Ruyi became more and more surprised, and turned around to look forward. His legs unconsciously tightened the horse's belly, making the sitting horse go faster.
Finally, the team they led slowly approached the pavilion where they rested.
Shen Wuzheng, who was wearing a blue shirt with a breeze hanging under his sleeves, had already walked forward with a smile. His gentle eyes had already filled up the moment he saw Shang Ruyi's figure in the sun. Full of smile, it overflowed even more at this moment, flowing into the two deep dimples at the corners of her lips, brewing an intoxicating tenderness.
Shang Ruyi didn't care about anything else at this time. He tightened the reins and quickly dismounted the horse before it even came to a complete stop, and walked quickly to him.
"Brother!"
"Ruyi!"
When the brother and sister met, they were both happy and excited. After Shang Ruyi called out that "Brother", he even She didn't even know what to say, but Shen Wuzheng immediately held her hand and looked her up and down, and frowned: "lost weight."
"Huh?"
Shang Ruyi was stunned, not knowing how much weight he could lose in less than a month since he left.
But if Shen Wuzheng said yes, it must be.
Ever since he was a child, he has always been consistent in the Shen family. Even if he is married, he seems to be unable to change his obedience to his brother.
He just smiled and said: "I am Xia Xia."
Shen Wuzheng gave her an angry look. After all, he was reluctant to say harsh words and asked again: "Are you injured?"
"No."
"I heard the news that you went into battle in person."
"Brother, those are all exaggerations by those people. Don't believe it. I don't even know the city tower." Never played before.”
“Really?”
“Of course!”
Shen Wuzheng chuckled, obviously not believing her guarantee, but now that his little sister was intact and alive in front of him, most of the uneasiness and danger in the past could be forgiven.
After feeling completely relieved, he raised his head again and looked behind Shang Ruyi.
At this moment, Yu Wenye is still riding on the horse.
Facing the uncle Shen Wuzheng, even as a general, he should dismount and say hello, but at this time, he sat motionless on the horse.
But, it’s not that he is arrogant.
It was that he was using most of his strength to suppress the excitement in his heart at the moment, but even with such efforts, he couldn't control his rapid breathing, his heartbeat was thundering, and he looked behind Shen Wuzheng with wide eyes.
The other person finally slowly walked down from the pavilion.
He walked swayingly, seeming to still have a bit of the suave style of a young man from an aristocratic family in the past. However, it had been too long since he had done it, and it felt strange to do it again, and his movements were a bit stiff, falling behind his old friend. In his eyes, it was more or less funny.
But Yu Wenye couldn’t laugh.
Not only could he not laugh, but at this time, even Shang Ruyi, who was originally overjoyed with his brother, couldn't laugh when he looked over Shen Wuzheng's shoulders and looked at that person.
Her breath was choked.
Shen Wuzheng didn't say much. He just pulled Shang Ruyi and took a step aside without leaving a trace, finally letting the two people face each other directly.
Yu Wenye's eyes slowly turned red. After taking another deep breath and suppressing the sourness in his heart, he suddenly turned over and dismounted, walked forward in a few steps, but... Stop when you are still a few steps away from the other person.
The other party has already opened his arms towards him with a smile -
"Feng Chen, I'm back!"
"...!"
Yu Wenye said nothing and remained motionless. He seemed not to respond to the other party's request for a hug, and the other party did not seem to really intend to hug him, so he immediately lowered his arms. , showing an unhappy look: "Why are you still the same?"
But, it's not the same.
At least usually, Yu Wenye is not so excited that his eyes are red and his breath is disordered like this moment.
He looked at the other party steadily, with obvious excitement and joy of meeting again after a long separation in his deep eyes. He was silent for a long time, and finally said in a hoarse voice: "You are finally back."
"..."
"Go far!"
The person standing in front of him was his father, Pei Shi, who was convicted of dissuading the emperor from stopping the conquest of Liaodong and was exiled to Lingnan. He had not seen him for a long time. Pei Xingyuan!
As soon as he heard his voice, Pei Xingyuan's originally playful smile turned serious. He said: "Yeah!"
At this moment, Shang Ruyi's eyes almost had a surge of scalding heat, almost bursting out of her eyes. She hurriedly turned her head and barely stopped, but when she looked back at the two of them, the blurry sight of that day in the East appeared again. Outside the capital, Yu Wenye stood on the roadside and saw off Pei Xingyuan.
As time goes by, the sun and the moon change.
Unexpectedly, the scene in front of her and the scene back then miraculously overlapped in front of her eyes.
The world is really so absurd and helpless.
|
Yu Wenye let the army behind him rest for a while, while he took Shang Ruyi, Shen Wuzheng, and Pei Xingyuan and sat into the pavilion.
Seeing each other again after a long absence made them a little excited.
Especially Pei Xingyuan, he is a moody person, and he never hesitates to express his emotions to others. At this time, he even said with a smile: "It's been so long, Feng Chen , You have a great future!”
“…”
If it had happened in the past, Yu Wenye would definitely ignore his words.
But at this time, there were still some ups and downs in his eyes. He just looked at Pei Xingyuan and said, "When did you come back?"
"Me? I came back just two days ago with our old man. ."
"Pei Shibo now——"
< br>"Don't worry, he's in good spirits. He said he was going to go to court as soon as he came back to reinstate his official position. Fortunately, I stopped him, otherwise I don't know what troublesome words he would say again. What if he does it again? I can’t bear to be exiled once.”
Everyone laughed.
Although when he was exiled, Yu Wenye gave him money and told the officials to take care of him, but Lingnan was a wild land after all, and he must have suffered a lot no matter what, but even so, it did not damage his optimism and cheerfulness at all. Seeing him like this, Shang Ruyi couldn't help but laugh.
During the conversation, Shang Ruyi learned that after the new emperor ascended the throne, he issued a general amnesty to the whole country - this matter was of course led by Yu Wenyuan - he had pardoned many officials who had been exiled before, and the Pei family was among those pardoned. The exile was finally over, so they were fortunate enough to return to Daxing.
Shang Ruyi said: "By the way, Mr. Pei, how could you two--"
Hearing this, Pei Xingyuan looked to the side and looked at Shen Wuzheng, who was silent with his lips pursed, and sighed. He immediately said: "When I come back, I naturally want to find some old friends to catch up with, but Feng Chen has already gone to Fufeng, and the others -"
At this point, his expression darkened.
Shang Ruyi also remembered that he had said before when he was exiled that all the friends who were brothers to him in the past would avoid seeing him when he was in trouble. Naturally, such "friends" would not have to see each other again; and Lei Yu, she But it’s hard to see it again.
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi's mood also dropped.
But Pei Xingyuan was Pei Xingyuan. Even if he was in a gloomy mood, he immediately cheered up. He wiped his face and forced a smile, saying: "After asking around, I found that this dear friend has actually returned from his studies."
As he said that, he smiled and put his arms around Shen Wuzheng and said, "We haven't seen each other for many years."
Shen Wuzheng brushed his hand away expressionlessly: "That's outrageous. ”
Pei Xingyuan was not discouraged by such a "cold reception". He just curled his lips and said: "You have been studying for so many years, but you are still the same. I would say that it is really a waste of time to talk to you about old times."
Only then did Shang Ruyi know that they knew each other - but it was not surprising. After all, Shen Shiyan and Pei Shi were old friends. The two were of similar age, so they knew each other more or less. However, in the past, she lived in seclusion and didn't interact much with the young ladies from other families, so she didn't know about her brother's friends. What's more, after Shen Wuzheng went out to study, he lost contact with these young ladies from the aristocratic families.
Pei Xingyuan said again: "I heard from him that you are coming back today, so I came with him to pick you up."
As he spoke, he puffed up his chest: "Isn't that enough? Friend.”
Yu Wenye still ignored him.
But nothing could hide the deep joy in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
Shang Ruyi immediately smiled and said: "Master Pei's return this time is a great joy. When we return to the city, we will immediately hold a banquet to welcome Master Pei and wash away the dust, okay?"
Pei Xingyuan immediately With a smile on his face: "Still Mrs. Sister-in-law - Ruyi is still kind!"
When he calls "Mrs. Sister-in-law", he still stands as a friend of Yu Wenye, and by calling "Ruyi" directly, he treats himself as a friend. Shang Ruyi knew that although he meant to ridicule Yu Wenye for not showing too affectionate attitude, it was also a special kind of cherishment for the old days after a long separation.
In this way, she didn't blame him for "offending", she just smiled and shook her head.
Shen Wuzheng on the side gave Pei Xingyuan an angry look.
At this time, Yu Wenye turned to look at Shen Wuzheng again and said, "By the way, big brother——"
Shen Wuzheng raised his hand slightly and said, "You should call me Fu Ming. ”
Fu Ming is his word.
Hearing this, Shang Ruyi couldn't help but smile. You must know that Shen Wuzheng is a cold person, and he has always had an inexplicable hostility towards Yu Wenye before. Now he is asking him to call him by his name, of course because there is already Yu Wenye's eldest brother in Daxing City, so he calls him " "Big brother" is a bit awkward, but at the same time, it can be regarded as his recognition of this brother-in-law.
When Yu Wenye heard this, his eyes flickered slightly and he said, "Brother Fu Ming."
Shen Wuzheng nodded lightly.
Yu Wenye said: "Brother Fuming has been——"
"He,"
Besides, Pei Xingyuan smiled broadly before Shen Wuzheng could speak. : "He is now a famous man in Daxing City."
