Just in time for rain [恰逢雨连天] - Chapter 242

[242. Chapter 241]

The whole mountain seemed to be silent for a moment.

The green color is continuous, like a silent undulating wave, and suddenly there is a bird call, and the sound is so crisp that it will wake up the dreamer.

Shen Xi stared blankly at the carriage opposite, the tung oil top, the elm wood body, and the ink-colored curtains, which were so common that they could be seen everywhere.

What does it mean that Emperor Jin’an came back from the dead?

No way, is it… thirteen?

He got out of the carriage, his mind went blank, he forgot to take the official shelf for a while, he stepped forward to lift the curtain, stretched out his hand, and was shocked to realize that he was still holding a folding fan. When I changed hands, who knew that before I touched the car curtain, the curtain was lifted from the inside.

Zhu Nanxian and Su Jinchao looked at Shen Xi.

Leaving Sui Palace in the past was almost cutting off the past, growing up together, trusting each other, in exchange for life and death.

Don’t live and die.

Their stunnedness and shock were no less than Shen Qingyue’s.

Su Jin smiled and called softly, “Qingyue.”

Shen Xi wanted to give her a smile, the corners of his lips were clearly raised, but a sigh that seemed to be smiling like a complaint overflowed from between his teeth. It is to dissolve all the sorrows and joys in the internal organs and reveal them.

In the past three years, no, it should be said that since Shen Jing passed away, he has never been as happy as he is today.

It’s not pure joy, it’s just a sense of fulfillment.

It was as complete as if he was in the East Palace many years ago, and he and Zhu Nanxian were arguing while rushing to hug the newly born Lin’er.

It was like in a deep palace, he lay down on a snowy field, lit up the night sky with a fan, and talked rhetorically with Su Shiyu.

And after that, the soldiers killed each other, plotted against each other, and they should all be turned into clouds.

Then he looked at a carriage closely behind Zhu Nanxian, who was sitting there, Shen Qingyue was so smart, what else could he not understand?

Yao Youcai, who was kneeling by the side, was extremely puzzled when he saw this scene.

When Lord Shen saw Emperor Jin An, he was shocked and surprised, all of which were expected by his Yao county magistrate.

But Lord Shen is Yongji Emperor’s brother-in-law after all, and Yongji’s trusted minister. How could he be so ill-conceived about the resurrection of the dead that the late emperor was not even a little bit wary?

He couldn’t help but mention: “Sir Shen, this is His Majesty Jin An, who has been living in Shu for the past few years, and the lower official can testify.”

“And the one next to him, this one is Su Shiyu. Mr. Su, the lower officials have inquired about it, and Mr. Su should have been serving his sentence in Ningzhou, but for some reason, he has come to the middle of Shu.” The

other Liang Dushi seemed to be in a situation here, and he had already brought several officials and small officials with him. When he came over, he happened to hear Yao Youcai’s words, and he was shocked.

Thinking about the situation when he met “Ten Highness” just now, although Su Jin had few words at that time, he was very arrogant, and he really didn’t look like a squire following the prince’s side.

It is said that in the imperial court, Lord Shen and Lord Su were invaluable close friends. Although Su Shiyu was in trouble and Shen Qingyue seemed indifferent, the close friendship between Shen and Su was inevitably criticized in private, but today I see these two standing together. , such as bamboo and orchid, bright moon and breeze, can be called double walls.

It’s hard not to believe that she is Su Shiyu.

Thinking about it again, if this squire is really Lord Su, then the “Ten Highness” beside her is really the resurrected Emperor Jin’an?

That’s right, Emperor Jin’an and His Majesty Yongji are also brothers, about the same age as His Highness the Tenth, and also…have the Nine Dragon Dagger.

Thinking of this, Liang Dushi froze and knelt down, wanting to make amends, but he didn’t know where to start.

Yao Youcai believed in Liang Dushi and said, “Master Shen, although Master Zhai is in the name of escorting prisoners to Beijing for trial, he is actually escorting His Majesty Jin An and Su Su to leave Shu, not to mention why His Majesty Jin An would do so. Resurrection from the dead, Master Su alone, should have served the sentence but not served it. This is the crime of deceiving the king. If the two of them go far away, they will only suffer the townspeople of Xiaguan and Cuiwei Town. If I’m going to be imprisoned, please adults do it for me.”

“Nonsense!” Shen Xi interrupted without waiting for Yao Youcai to finish.

He glanced at Zhu Nanxian, and had a panoramic view of the crow-green thin cloak and the jade button around his waist, his heart was as bright as a mirror.

“The two people in front of you are clearly His Highness Ten and his personal squires.”

Yao Youcai’s eyes widened, and he was a little confused about the situation for a while.

Lord Shen is someone who grew up in the palace, he said no, did he really make a mistake?

He recalled what had happened last night again.

Last night, there was civil strife in the Yunlai Inn. First, the head of the household department, Mr. Lu, knelt down on Emperor Jin’an, and then the deputy censor, Mr. Zhai, paid tribute to Emperor Jin’an. Later, when Mr. Shu and Mr. Liu arrived, they all bowed to Emperor Jin’an.

How could Zhu Jinan, who has been recognized by so many important court officials, be wrong?

Or, Master Shen doesn’t want to believe it?

“If you don’t believe me,” Yao Youcai said in a hurry, “The identities of His Majesty Jin An and Lord Su, the subordinate officials are to listen to what the cabinet’s first assistant, Lord Liu, and the cabinet assistant, Lord Shu, will never be false, and not only subordinate officials. I heard that the townspeople of Cuiwei Town were also present at that time-”

“This official has been with Su Shiyu for many years, and he grew up with the late emperor. Can you deny the two of them and need someone else to help you distinguish?”

Shen Ximu Lu was dissatisfied, even more like impatience, and shouted, “Zhai Qiguang!”

Zhai Di, who got off the carriage early, stood by the side and waited, stepped forward: “Sir.”

Shen Xi pointed at Yao Youcai with a fan, and frowned. : “What’s the matter with this person?”

Zhai Di also glanced at Yao Youcai, bowed in apology and said: “Yesterday, Mr. Liu received a petition stating that this person, along with his fourth uncle, the governor of Jinzhou Prefecture, took advantage of the new farmland policy to deceive the people and bully the land, and ordered an official to escort him to Beijing. After this person was convicted, here—” Zhai Di tapped his right forehead, “he was not sober all the time, and for a while he said that after the late emperor ‘Bin Tian’, he did not keep his filial piety, so the late emperor wanted to punish him, Suddenly, he said that he was wronged. Today, it is not bad to recognize His Highness the Tenth Highness as the late emperor, but after all, it will not involve others. When it was more serious, he said that he had someone in the capital, and no one could move him because of the hood that covered him. That lord, it’s you, Lord Shen.”

Shen Xi raised his eyebrows, as if surprised: “Is there such a thing?”

Yao Youcai was stunned: “Sir Shen, you don’t remember, it was the beginning of the spring this year, and the lower official still returned. The trustee handed you a greeting post.” There was also a silver note of 500 taels hidden in the post.

Zhai Di said: “Lord Shen, look, you are sick again.” Shen Xi looked at Yao Youcai

for a while, then shook his head: “If you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself.”

, “What are you still doing, waiting to bring disaster to this official? Find a rope to tie his hands and feet, and then block his mouth tightly.”

Liang Dushi was like watching a play, and he was caught up in the twists and turns in front of him . He was so confused that he didn’t have time to tell right from wrong in his rush. The only person he knew in front of him was Lord Shen, and the biggest official was this Lord Shen.

If you don’t listen to Lord Shen, who else can you listen to?

So he went into battle in person, no matter what Yao Youcai shouted, he tied him aside.

Only then did Shen Xi give Zhu Nanxian a bow: “It disturbed His Highness the Tenth.”

Zhu Nanxian shook his head: “It’s okay.” Then he asked, “How did Lord Shen enter Sichuan?

” It was for Comb and Yun Xi, and now seeing Zhu Nanxian and Su Jin here, knowing that Zhu Lin, who was worried about him, must be in the carriage behind him, he just replied, “Some personal matters.”

He didn’t go into details, and he couldn’t tell in front of others that Liang Dushi had come back to wait for orders after disposing of Yao Youcai.

Shen Xi said: “To disturb Your Highness today, I feel really ashamed, why don’t I let this minister open the way and send His Highness twenty miles away.”

Zhu Nanxian didn’t refuse: “Sir Shen is very polite, as long as it doesn’t delay your important business. Good.”

Liang Dushi watched this scene from the side, and was really puzzled.

Didn’t they all say that Lord Shen had a disagreement with the Tenth Highness? Lord Shen is not usually a person who likes to pretend, so why did he meet his tenth highness today with such a thoughtful etiquette?

There was a fog in his heart, and there were many clues in the fog. Just as he was about to sort out a clue, he suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes screeching from one end of the mountain road.

A fast horse stopped at the barrier, the man on the horse rolled over, and Minato and an official said something anxiously in the ear.

When the official heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward to report: “It’s all a matter of your lord. Your Majesty has already arrived at the Jinzhou Mansion in the middle of Shu, and has come to pass on the urgent order of the lord Shu. From today onwards, no matter who leaves the middle of Shu, please set up a barrier to prevent them.”

When Liang Dushi heard this, he was stunned again.

In the first place, Master Liu asked him to set up a barrier, and he gave him the title of “catching Qin criminals”. This time, Master Shu asked him to set up a barrier without even giving him a title.

What happened in this Shuzhong?

But after this, his cautious heart was raised again, and he was thinking about whether to stop the carriage of the Tenth Highness and Lord Shen. Didn’t the Tenth Highness say that there was an order from His Majesty? Otherwise, wait until the word of mouth arrives before letting go.

Who would have thought that he had not yet said his thoughts, but Su Jin, who was beside him, had already seen his thoughts and preempted him: “Liang Dushi, has your Majesty’s verbal order not yet arrived?”

Liang Dushi replied: “Return to the Tenth Highness, return to Lord Shen , Your Majesty’s oral order has not yet arrived, or…”

Or else, Your Highness and Your Excellency will wait for your Majesty’s oral order to arrive before leaving.

Su Jin knew what Liang Dushi wanted to say, but how could she let him say it, she smiled and said, “This is very new, they are all from Jinzhou Mansion to Jianmenguan, how can you be a person from Lord Shu, Will it come before His Majesty’s people?”
