Shen Yu saw that the sky was dull and it seemed like it was going to rain heavily, but his king had not come back yet, so he was helpless in Qutai Palace. After finally seeing Zhou Wu nagging him and sending him back, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. When Zhao Zheng dismissed the other palace people, he said angrily: "Your Majesty, you still know how to come back and take a look at this pile of memorials." I’m not sure how long I’ll have to stay up before I fall asleep.”
Shen Yu was the only one in the entire palace who dared to speak to him like this. Zhao Zheng pretended to be angry and said, "I think you are becoming more and more unruly." Over the years, Shen Yu became more and more bold in front of him. The reason why he tolerated it was because of others. The maids in the palace had more or less hidden thoughts about him that they shouldn't have. Dudu Shenyu had no such thoughts, so he often talked to her when he was bored.
Speaking of which, Zhao Zheng, a grown man, has always been a bit slow in emotional matters. What exactly does he think about Zhao Gao? He keeps it in his heart, and he still can't figure it out. When he had nothing to do, he asked Shen Yu a few questions in a vague way. After asking more, the two of them got along like this.
And Shen Yu also gradually discovered that the majestic king who let his king kill and make decisions in front of outsiders was actually just an ordinary person when it came to matters of love in private. And how Zhao Zheng struggled to come out of such a difficult situation in those years, she also saw everything in her eyes, and secretly felt sorry for him.
"But, you are like a queen?" Zhao Zheng has the most trouble with dealing with the harem. In the past, the affairs of Lu Buwei and Lao Ai made him disgusted, so he has only married one queen so far. Who wants to have a relationship with the queen because of this? The rumor of harmony actually spread to the whole world. But that's fine, no one will bother him with this anymore.
"The queen came once and left when the king was not around." Zhao Zheng saw something strange on her face. Although he tried his best to hide it, he still couldn't hide it from his eyes, so he asked immediately: "Did she criticize you?" Shen Yu shook his head and did not answer his words, but said something else: "The king wants to find that beautiful Yushu, and Shen Yu dare not stop him, but he can just ask the king to find an excuse to call the branch in advance, otherwise Shen Yu It’s hard to explain jade to the queen.”
After Shen Yu finished speaking, there was a faint look of displeasure on Zhao Zheng's face, but it was not for Shen Yu, but for the queen. After a while, he sighed and said: "It's true that she was caught between the widow and Xiong Qi these days when Mr. Chang Ping's accident happened." It's embarrassing. But I have promised her early in the morning that no matter what happens to Xiong Qi in the future, as long as she is at peace, I will not touch her, so why should she come here every day to make herself unhappy?"
Although Zhao Zheng and the Queen have treated each other with respect over the years, he doesn't care about the Queen at all. Shen Yu sees all this, so he can't help but say the truth: "Your servant is brave, the king just treats the Queen as someone who cannot refuse." The woman who lives together, but the queen treats the king as her only husband."
Zhao Zheng smiled when he heard this: "She scolded you, but you spoke up for her." Shen Yu shook her head: "The queen is also a hard-working person. Now that she is pregnant with the king's heir, her emotions are inevitably easy to get excited and more sensitive. Although the king is always I took the time to visit her every day and never looked down on her, but she may have noticed what happened to that young lady."
Zhao Zheng's eyes lost focus and murmured: "She is not easy for everyone to know, but I can't give her what she wants, and I don't want to keep perfunctory with her. I can grant her anything else she wants. These... years I made it clear to her before. Now that she's pregnant, won't I go over and move around more frequently?"
Shen Yu thought about it carefully and felt relieved. She had heard about the affairs between Lord Changping and the king, and she had heard about it. If this matter were left to other kings, the queen might not have it so easy. The king thought of her good nature and kindness, and put The harem was kept in perfect order, and the abolition of the queen was never mentioned once. Later, the queen became pregnant but almost caused a miscarriage due to an accident. The first thing the king knew about was not the child but her safety...
She was lost in thought, but was brought back to reality by Zhao Zheng's next words: "You said that I am different from the past, can you really tell?" Shen Yu collected her previous thoughts and replied: "In the past, the king interfered with the queen's etiquette. Occasionally, the queen is allowed to touch her, but recently..." Zhao Zheng suddenly realized that these days, whenever someone touches his hand, Zhao Gao's smiling face will appear in his mind, and he will avoid it unconsciously. "Do you think I really like him?" Shen Yu nodded: "My servant thinks that the king really likes her."
He and she in the mouth of Jun and Maid are actually Zhao Gao, but Zhao Zheng has not told Shen Yu about Zhao Gao. Every time he asks her, he tells her something vaguely, and Shen Yu always thinks that Zhao Gao is talking about it. It was the woman he had been thinking about for many years, but the relationship between him and his uncle Changping Jun was tense at the moment, and the queen was pregnant. He didn't want to escalate the situation, so he kept it secret for the time being. Zhao Zheng knew that she had a different idea, but he deliberately kept it secret.
In fact, Zhao Zheng has never understood that his teacher's face is handsome and elegant, and his demeanor is elegant. He is good-looking, but he is not as soft as a woman. It stands to reason that his figure is strong and well-proportioned due to years of martial arts practice, and his body is as tall and straight as a bamboo, and there is no trace of femininity in him. Why do I want to go there when I look at him...
Suddenly, Zhao Zheng suddenly recalled watching "Yueren Song" in the past:
It always feels weird.
In fact, I'm not used to it, but it's just one person falling in love with another person. The only difference is that the other person also happens to be a man. It's not you, but you are worrying about others.
Thinking back on the questions and answers between teachers and students back then, it was an inexplicable feeling. Zhao Zheng couldn't help but breathe. In order to prevent Shen Yu from noticing that he was strange, he temporarily suppressed the restlessness in his heart and waved his hands. , and when Shen Yu went out, the restless feeling could no longer be suppressed and began to rush around in his chest.
In fact, after getting along for a long time after the reunion, Zhao Zheng faintly noticed that his feelings for his teacher Zhao Gao had changed. Before entering the Qin Dynasty, Zhao Zheng relied on the teacher Zhao Gao he had in mind. Now that the person is there, he is also dependent on her, but this feeling of dependence has changed unknowingly. Only after being touched by Shen Yu today did he realize that he likes her.
In the past, Zhao Zheng only hoped that his teacher Zhao Gao could stay with him so that he could repay his past kindness and relieve his loneliness as a king.
Now I want more.
Started to hope to spend a lifetime with him...
Such a change made Zhao Zheng unexpected and even a little overwhelmed. The distance between them is not only that they are both men, but Zhao Gao is the teacher who he bowed to and worshiped in the past. This is an identity that is known to the entire Qin State and even the world. Now that he is in a high position, as long as he makes a little mistake, he can be overwhelmed by just worldly vision. It wouldn't matter to him alone, but that might directly ruin the future of teacher Zhao Gao.
Besides, he said at that time: Actually, I’m not used to it.
He also said today: You child, you have been honest since you were a child.
Xiao Gao only regarded him as a student, but he shamelessly missed his teacher.
That night, Zhao Zheng listened to the sound of the cold wind and rain outside the window, and asked himself countless times in his heart: After living for twenty years, is this the first time that I want to be with someone so much that I just give up?
This thought actually kept me awake all night...
One month later.
The work finally came to an end this afternoon, and they planned to repair for the day. "Li Taishi, farewell." A few days ago, because of his meritorious service in admonishing Zhao Zheng, Li Si got the position of chief historian of the prime minister's office and became an official of the prime minister's office. However, he has not given up on creating new characters. Now he is running in both directions and is extremely busy all day long. So Zhao Gao knew that he could not rest anymore, so he said goodbye first.
Zhao Gao originally thought that Li Si would nod his head and leave like in the past, but today he asked, "Aren't you in a hurry?" Zhao Gao's mind was so sharp, and he immediately knew that he was asking why he had not been awarded an official position for a long time. Urgent matter. Zhao Gao smiled so lightly that he remained silent for a long time before saying: "Some things cannot be rushed if they are urgent. In this case, why should Zhao Gao be in trouble with himself?"
Li Si was startled when he heard this, and looked into his eyes steadily, but saw that he always had a leisurely and distant expression, and could not see anything strange. He chuckled lightly and said without saltiness: "I'm actually looking down on him." you."
After bidding farewell to Li Si, Zhao Gao took the sign and left the palace. He had been tired for a day, and was already very exhausted when he walked all the way to Guowei's Mansion. At that time, Wei Liao was playing chess with him. When he saw him come back, he grabbed him and sat him down before he could take a breath: "Come on, little friend. , I’m not interested in doing this alone, so it’s up to you to take over this mess.”
As he said that, Wei Liao left the maid who was waiting about ten feet away and went into the house to get a pot of wine and two copper princes, obviously intending to drag Zhao Gao here. Zhao Gao is naturally reserved, and others cannot tell when he is not in good spirits. Only Zhao Zheng knows him well, but he will be the first to notice anything unusual. So now even Wei Liao didn't know that he was extremely tired. Zhao Gao couldn't bear to dampen Wei Liao's interest, so he braced himself and took the bronze knight with a smile, and the two sat in front of the bamboo forest to talk.
The more he drank, the more drowsy Zhao Gaotou became. It was rare for him to get drunk, but today, due to his poor condition, he couldn't hold on after a few drinks. The sky was getting dark, and when he took a nap with his hand, Wei Only then did Liao notice something strange about him, and asked in surprise: "Little friend?" Zhao Gao gently shook his hand to indicate that he was okay. Unexpectedly, with this shake, his hand slipped and his head lowered, and Wei Liao would knock it on the table. Before he could get up to help someone, he saw a hand covering the edge of the case.
With a "bang" sound, Zhao Gao's forehead hit him. Zhao Zheng didn't even frown. He calmly withdrew his red hand and let him lean against him again. "Your Majesty?" Although Zhao Gao knew that it was inappropriate for him to lean on Zhao Zheng like this, he still wanted to pull Zhao Zheng's hand over for inspection. However, he couldn't muster any strength and struggled several times to move, but to no avail. .
Wei Liao stared at this "uninvited guest" unceremoniously, stood up and saluted him, and changed his attitude to get rid of Zhao Gao's trouble: "The king's teacher, the king himself will take care of it." Zhao Zheng wished he would ignore it. , I was secretly happy but still kept my face. When I asked where Zhao Gao's room was, I immediately asked him to rest. Wei Liao was afraid of exposing his identity, so he drove away all the servants in the mansion before leaving.
As soon as the surroundings were quiet, Zhao Zheng looked down at him and asked with concern: "Can Xiao Gao still leave?" Upon hearing this, Zhao Gao raised his head to look at him hard with his drunken eyes, wanting to say that it was inappropriate for him to appear here like this. He returned to the palace as quickly as possible, but he was so drunk that he found it difficult to even speak, so he could only nod his head and say "yes" with difficulty.
When he raised his head, his chin and neck formed an elegant arc. His face was stained with a thin layer of crimson, and his eyes became blurry. When he answered, the bulge on his neck slid slightly. Although this drunken state was not It seemed like a woman's charm, but it had a different kind of sultry flavor, which made Zhao Zheng's mouth go dry and his Adam's apple twitched. Afraid that Zhao Gao would notice something strange about him, Zhao Zheng did not dare to look at him again and hurriedly said: "Xiao Gao, I will carry you." Unexpectedly, Zhao Gao lowered his head again and fell asleep.
