At noon, Chen Xiang brought a huanghuali food box to Wen Chu. She said, "Today is a holiday. The prince is alone in the Yamen. I think there is no food there. You can go and deliver it." "
Wen Chu raised his head and asked in confusion: " How can he be hungry for such a big man? With so many people around him, there will always be someone who can get him food. Why should I go all the way in vain?"
Chen Xiang did not expect Wen Chu to do so. Saying this, after thinking about it, I realized that this is indeed a good thing. But the prince personally ordered her to do this. Song Yusheng said that it was a holiday today and there was no one in the yamen to cook, so he asked her to call Wen Chu to deliver it to him. If Song Yusheng hadn't asked Wen Chu to send him off, Chen Xiang would not have troubled her for no reason.
Thinking about this, Chen Xiang quickly said: "No, no, the prince is not used to the things bought from outside, so he should give it to his family."
Wen Chu still refused. , and then said: "Then just let the secret guards deliver it. I am clumsy, and the food got cold before it was delivered."
She really didn't understand why the meal was delivered to her, and why she thought it was appropriate to call the secret guard to deliver it.
Clumsy, Chen Xiang felt that Wen Chu was right. She was afraid that Wen Chu would spill the soup, so she didn't even put the soup in. After all, it is much better for the prince to eat dryly than to see a messy food box.
Agarwood can't continue talking to her, otherwise sooner or later she will be asked to go around.
She simply put the food box on the table, "Go and deliver it quickly, otherwise it will be after dinner later." She left with these words.
Wen Chu looked at the food box left by Chenxiang and had no choice but to obey and deliver it.
But then I thought about it, wouldn’t this mean I could leave the house? And there is no Song Yusheng around! Although the secret guards will follow her, as long as she doesn't do anything, they won't care about her.
When she thought about this, she felt energetic again. She picked up the food box and walked outside immediately.
As soon as Fang walked to the door, he saw Dongyue waiting there. Wen Chu had a bad feeling and stepped forward and asked, "You don't want to go with me, do you?"
Dongyue looked at her as if she was mentally retarded and said, "What else? I think life is too boring. I have nothing to do and I will be a doorkeeper here for you?"
Isn't it because of her? Are people dishonest?
When Wen Chu heard Dong Yue ridiculing her, she was not willing to be outdone and replied: "It seems that those ten whips still can't make your mouth honest."
Wen Chu has always been unforgiving, Song Yusheng did not dare to speak to her. Stubborn, Dongyue, doesn’t she dare? It was as if she wanted him to follow her so much, but it was annoying to follow her.
Dongyue received those ten whippings and it took a full half month to heal. The whiplash injury was the most grueling. It took a long time for scabs to form, and during this time, they would crack again because of the continuous training. This was repeated. .
Although the whip was given to him because of his bad mouth, didn't Wen Chu also choke on him? She was fine and had nothing wrong with her, but now she was deliberately teasing him about it.
Although Dongyue had healed her scar and forgot about the pain, the ten lashes had just been completed, and the pain was still vivid in his mind. He felt a burst of pain just thinking about it, and he could only hold in his breath while he was alive. However, when Wen Chu saw that he remained silent, he looked even more like a villain who had succeeded.
Seeing her look like this, Dongyue's breath that she had finally held back surged up again. She couldn't speak and had nowhere to vent her anger, so she actually held back tears.
Wen Chu was startled, but seeing Dongyue, who was still angry and glaring at her, suddenly a big tear fell from her wide eyes.
He was born young, so he made her look like a vicious old woman bullying others.
"Hey, hey, why are you crying! Oh my God." She really didn't expect Dongyue to be so unable to hold her breath.
Dongyue also didn’t expect that he could make her cry. He is the youngest among the four secret guards. It is already an extraordinary thing for him to be able to do this at his age. . He didn't say a word when he was whipped, but now he was made angry by her and cried in public? !
When he thought about the secret guards around him, he felt that his life was over. His reputation in this life would be destroyed today, and he would never live in the future!
Dongyue wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes, and said harshly: "Cry, cry, cry! Who is crying!"
How dare Wen Chu continue to talk, she said: " Okay, okay, you said you didn’t cry, so you didn’t cry.”
After saying this, he shrank his head and left.
Dongyue was even more angry after hearing what she said. Why did she say it like he was trying to kill a duck? He just reacted and was about to have a seizure, but saw that she had already walked away.
He gritted his teeth and followed.
There was already a carriage ready at the back door of Song Mansion. Wen Chu got on the carriage and followed the people out.
Dali Temple is not far away from Song Dynasty. Because Dongyue is watching her, she doesn't dare to do anything. Besides, she made him cry just now. He must be eager to grab her now. The little braids are coming.
After a while she arrived at the entrance of Dali Temple.
The front door of Dali Temple looks fresh and upright. There is a huge plaque hanging in front of the door, with the three characters "Dali Temple" engraved on it. Because today is a holiday, the front door is also deserted. Dongyue stepped forward and showed Song Yusheng's sign to Menzi. When Menzi saw it, he quickly took the person inside.
The further you walk inside, you will find that the main decoration here is wood carvings and stone carvings, which makes it look cooler and more solemn than elsewhere. The gate led the two of them around several turns and passed through Ersanyi Gate before arriving at the courtyard where the Qing's Wing of Dali Temple was located.
The disciple brought the person back and said, "Brother, guard, this is our Lord's wing."
After that, he left here.
Every person in the office of the Dali Temple Minister is in his own room. This entire courtyard is where Song Yusheng works. Wen Chu and Dongyue walked into the courtyard. After stepping into the courtyard, Wen Chu seemed to hear something. .
She didn't take it seriously at first, but it wasn't until she walked into the door of the wing that she heard two people arguing inside the room.
She naturally recognized one of them as Song Yusheng, and the other one also sounded familiar. She quickly remembered that it was Song Yusheng's father, the Duke Song Lin.
She listened to Song Lin and said: "That's your cousin after all. You are both from the Song family. You usually have a relationship where you don't see each other when you look up. You have to do things like this? You Didn't you listen to a word of what grandma said that day? "
In the room, Song Yusheng didn't even raise his head, sitting on the chair looking at the pile of documents. When he took office, he still had a lot of official affairs to deal with. When he heard Song Lin's words, he just said: "I will do everything right? Is this perfect? If he doesn't make mistakes himself, can he be found out? When he wanted to kill me, why didn't you say that he did a great job? If I hadn't been saved, would I still be sitting here now? It was just a mistake for him to kill me like this. It’s just that the matter was found out, isn’t that soft-hearted?”
Song Lin was at home, but he heard that something happened with Song Yuyuan, saying that he had committed some dereliction of duty before, and asked the people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate to arrest him. When he got up, Song Lin suddenly thought of what Song Yusheng had said the day he came back. I was afraid that he had really done something to his own relatives, so he hurried to Dali Temple. After hearing what Song Yusheng said, it seemed that this was indeed the case.
Song Yusheng raised his eyes and glanced at Song Lin, and said: "The most he can do is to be demoted. I didn't kill him because of his surname Song. You actually said that I was not kind enough and that you were too accommodating." I’m sad, father.”
Song Yusheng seemed to be smiling when he said this, but Song Lin was. This smile frightened him so much that he couldn't help but take a few steps back. He frowned, pointed at Song Yusheng and said: "You follow the way of Confucius and Mencius and practice the way of a gentleman, how could you do such a thing!"
Song Yusheng is a dignified young man praised by the world, and a younger son who makes the Song family look good.
This is not something a gentleman can do, let alone what Song Yusheng should do!
When Song Yusheng heard what he said, his hand shook uncontrollably. The ink stains were smeared on the document. He looked at the dark ink, sighed lightly, finally put down the pen and raised his head. Looked at him.
"Father, why don't you understand? Just because I have to do such a thing, I have to practice the way of a gentleman. People are against each other, and virtues and policies come and go. It's just that there will be more help when the right way comes, and less help when the wrong way. It doesn't matter, in order to get what I want If you want, I can always be a gentleman.”
"But please understand, father, that I am a gentleman to get what I want."
Wen Chu was so confused by these words outside, rationally told She shouldn't listen anymore, but her feet felt like they were filled with lead and she couldn't move any further.
Song Lin said: "You are such a person? Are you actually such a person?! Have you read the sages' books for more than ten years and gone into the dog's belly? Why do you say you are like this?! "
Song Yusheng seemed very confused, and his tone was full of confusion. He asked, "Dare I ask what kind of person my father is?"
"Those who do not abide by moral conduct and do not abide by family rules!"
"Those who do not abide by moral conduct and do not abide by family rules." Song Yusheng repeated Song Lin's words, then laughed and continued: "Three hundred family rules of the Song family Disciple training, among several descendants, I am the only one who can recite it by heart, my father said. I don't follow the clan rules, why? I am like this, am I not fulfilling my father's wishes? Isn’t it enough?”
“I want both. Father, you can’t be so greedy. "My heart."
Song Yusheng's words made Song Lin extremely angry, and he said: "Why did your grandfather beat you like this with thirty whips back then? How can you still have the dignity to kneel down like this?" How dare you meet the ancestors of the Song family in front of your grandfather's memorial tablet!"
"It was my father who forced me to come here. I have become what my father hoped for. Why are you afraid of me? Why do you have the face to see your grandfather?" He chuckled lightly. "The master died unjustly back then. Do you have a clear conscience after hearing about the disaster of destroying your family?”
Wen Chu was somewhat impressed by the death of Taifu.
The Taifu mentioned by Song Yusheng was named Wen Lilian. At that time, he and Song Shoufu taught Emperor Linghui how to read in the Wenhua Palace, and he was also regarded as Emperor Linghui's teacher. Wen Chu had never met the chief minister because he died before she was born, seemingly from corruption and bribery. There were no eggs left after the nest was overturned. The Tutor made such a mistake, and the Wen family suffered accordingly. The men who deserved to be exiled were also exiled, and those who deserved to die died with them, while half of the women were transferred to the Jiaofangsi, and half of them died. On the road to exile.
The reason why Wen Chu knew this Tutor was because of her father, Emperor Linghui.
Emperor Linghui seemed to be very intolerant of the death of his teacher. If anyone mentioned Taifu Wen, or if he thought about it himself, he would always hide his face and cry.
Wen Chu bumped into him no less than three times.
Song Yusheng asked Song Lin whether they had a clear conscience regarding the death of the Taifu. Could this matter be related to the Song family?
Could it be that Song Yusheng’s thirty lashes were also related to this matter?
That shouldn't be the case. When the Tutor died, Song Yusheng was probably just a child, a fool who couldn't even speak.
Inside the room, Song Lin looked at him in disbelief, "What do you know? How did you know?!"
Song Yusheng looked a little funny when he saw him like this. Always wearing an extremely decent smile, just like the way he has appeared in front of the world these years, he said: "If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing yourself."
Song Yusheng only said this sentence. As for what he knew and how he knew it, he did not answer.
Song Lin was extremely panicked, but Song Yusheng still said calmly: "My father should know what kind of person I am, but whether I am a blessing to the Song family or a misfortune to the Song family depends entirely on my father." Thinking "
Song Yusheng actually hoped that he could expose him. It would be better to tell the world that he was a jade-faced Rakshasa, a vicious person with a human face and a beast's heart who had no regard for ethics and attacked his relatives.
But Song Yusheng knew very well how Song Lin would choose. He would pretend that nothing happened, that he was still the same Song Yusheng with a clear breeze and bright moon, and that he had never been here today.
Sure enough, he heard Song Lin say: "I don't know what happened today, but you should take care of yourself in the future."
Song Yusheng sneered and was too lazy to look at him again. He lowered his head and looked at the documents on the table again.
Seeing him like this, Song Lin knew that the two of them had nothing to talk about, so he rolled his sleeves and walked outside.
Wen Chu outside the house came to his senses when he heard that there was no sound inside. She really couldn't listen to what the two of them were talking about. Now that she had listened to it all, she would be killed if she didn't keep it all!
Wen Chu thought that Dong Yue was still around and that there was someone with her, and her heart calmed down a little. However, when she turned around, there was no one behind her. Wen Chu was so engrossed that she didn't know Dong Yue at all. When did he disappear?
She then thought that she must have made him cry at the entrance of Yuhui Hall just now, and he ran away deliberately without calling her!
Wen Chu secretly cursed this petty Dongyue and wanted to leave this place.
However, it was already too late.
She heard the sound of the door opening behind her, followed by an angry shout.
“Stop!”
