The next day, Rong Se got up yawning, changed his clothes and prepared to go to court. By the way, he listened to Yun Chu's report on how he had disciplined Qiu Zihan last night.
"Although he didn't see us, something happened at Fu Sheng Tower yesterday night, so he couldn't help but think of the master." Yun Chu put down his toiletries and stepped aside. The master never let anyone get close to him to serve him.
Rong Se said nonchalantly: "Just think of it if you want to. If he dares to say it, won't he be beaten?"
He dared to let people take action, so he was not afraid of the Qiu family turning against him.
Yun Chu choked up and said hesitantly, "But his Qiu family..."
"It should be Qiu Sinan who is jealous of me." Rong Se glanced over, "The Qiu family is not that important. Qiu Sinan knows how his son achieved his fame. Besides, isn't he busy guarding against Liang Shenyu?"
Marquis Dingbei has been guarding the border these years and seems not to have made any move in the court of Jinjing. However, Rongse knows that he is just waiting for the right time, a chance to return to the capital for revenge.
Qiu Sinan will definitely not be able to defeat Liang Shenyu.
The morning court session was nothing but the same old talk. Rong Se was not as knowledgeable about government affairs as his original owner. He pretended to listen to the end of the court session and left faster than anyone else.
You must be positive after get off work.
He was walking in front when a voice suddenly came from behind: "Your Majesty, please stay—"
The man came in an official robe, with gray hair and beard. He stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, wait a minute, wait a minute."
"Master Qiu." Rong Se said with a smile on his face, "Run slower, and speak if you have anything to say."
Qiu Sinan said bluntly: "My son's words and actions last night were rude to you, Your Majesty. I hope you will forgive me."
Rong Se smiled but didn't smile.
The words sounded nice, but he was still not sure who had hit someone, so he came to test him. Rong Se's already bright face naturally had some sharpness when he smiled. He said, "Really? Then, Master Qiu, do you know what your son said?"
Qiu Sinan knew what was going on, and from what he said, he could tell that Rong Se had admitted that what happened last night was the work of his Regent Palace! He broke out in cold sweat and said with his eyes downcast, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I will discipline you strictly in the future!"
Rong Se was not interested, and hurried to Fusheng Tower, then he sneered and said, "Okay, Master Qiu, I am not interested in the Qiu family's affairs."
Yan Jue walked away quickly.
Qiu Sinan's expression changed unpredictably as he stood there. He knew very well that the Regent was ruthless and cruel. If he heard about what happened last night, he would definitely not let it go easily. That's why he became suspicious when he found out that his son was only beaten and not seriously injured.
Although Rong Se accepted it, he did not express his intention.
Should we just let it go or continue pursuing the matter?
As he was thinking, he suddenly felt a pair of sharp eyes. He raised his eyes and saw a man in a red robe embroidered with a lion beast walking slowly towards him. His pupils suddenly contracted.
It is said that thieves have guilty consciences. Qiu Sinan has been in the court for many years and knows how powerful Marquis Dingbei is now. Therefore, he was panicked for a moment, and the man had already walked past him.
It was as hot as scorching fire in July, but Qiu Sinan felt chilled all over by that mocking and cold look.
As soon as Rong Se left the palace, he heard someone quickly approach him and say, "Did the Qiu family offend the prince?"
Rong Se paused. Liang Shenyu was standing next to him, but the distance was too close. He silently moved aside to a suitable distance before saying, "It's not an offense. Why?"
Liang Shenyu smiled warmly: "Nothing, nothing, I just came to say thank you to the prince, thank you for Fushenglou's righteous words that day."
He acted harmless, or at least seemed gentle and humble, but Rong Se felt a little offended. He always had a natural keen intuition about danger, but after thinking it over, he still patiently said, "Don't worry."
On the surface, he appeared calm and composed, but in his heart he was shouting at the top of his lungs: You must remember this! You must remember this! At least I spoke for you!!!
It's still possible to make some chicken soup for the Yun brothers and Lan Ying, but this one is different. He is the protagonist in the original novel, who is brave, warlike, gentle, strong, and has both intelligence and quotient. The original novel describes him as the most beautiful person in the world, a graceful and elegant man, and most importantly, the original owner's plans were almost all ruined by this man.
In order to save your life, build good relationships.
Liang Shenyu lowered his eyes and said slowly, "As the prince, why would you go to Fusheng Tower in person?"
When the two stood together, Rong Se noticed more clearly how tall the general was. He had to look up if he wanted to see Liang Shenyu. The sense of oppression was very strong. Even though the distance was far enough, Rong Se still felt a little stuffy.
This feeling of being suppressed made him look unhappy.
What Liang Shenyu saw was a beauty frowning. Perhaps it was not quite appropriate to call the regent who dominated the court like this, but he was indeed a beauty, with charming eyes and brows. However, his gentle temperament diluted the coldness and sharpness between his eyebrows and eyes. His eyes were bright and affectionate, making people unable to take their eyes away.
Liang Shenyu's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and he remained silent with his eyes half closed.
Rong Se only felt that Liang Shenyu's eyes were becoming more and more strange, which made him feel like a thorn in his back. He was uneasy and silent for a moment, then said, "My Lord, just treat it as a temporary whim of the king."
Liang Shenyu smiled: "So that's how it is."
Rong Se sighed silently.
What else can I say?
That I'm just doing my old job?
The two said goodbye at the palace gate. The sky was gray, hot and humid. Liang Shenyu sat in the carriage of the Marquis' Mansion, closed his eyes, and suddenly asked, "What's going on with the Qiu family?"
"Oh, about that." Song Yan said outside, "Didn't Qiu Zihan hold a banquet at Fushenglou yesterday, inviting the prominent young masters of the aristocratic families in Jinjing and the Regent King, but the Regent King didn't show up at all. Since he didn't go, many young masters of the aristocratic families who wanted to make friends naturally didn't go either. Not only did Qiu Zihan make a scene and lose face, he also got drunk at Fushenglou and said some nonsense in public. As luck would have it, he was found unconscious in the alley on Yaoqin Street in the West Market before dawn today, covered in injuries."
There was a hint of schadenfreude in his tone.
Liang Shenyu asked lazily, "What did Qiu Zihan say to make the prince so angry?"
Song Yan said, "It's understandable that the Regent was angry. I heard that Qiu Zihan mentioned someone's life experience and even dared to say that the Regent was born to be - ahem, to be slept with." He paused and then said seriously, "The Regent didn't kill him, which means he has a good temper."
The background of the Regent Prince has been criticized. His biological mother was born in a brothel and served Emperor Yuanguang and the previous emperor. In the end, it was Cao Lun who led a group of court officials to remonstrate with the emperor, which forced the then Queen Mother Yan Shuang to death. Few people have mentioned this matter since the Regent Prince came to power in the past two years, but everyone knows about it.
No wonder you're angry.
Liang Shenyu said nothing, but when he heard those humiliating words, he suddenly thought of that ruthless and beautiful face, and the small bright red mole under the corner of the eye. He suddenly felt his throat dry, licked the canine teeth with the tip of his tongue, and his expression gradually darkened.
“That’s brave enough.”
Liang Shenyu chuckled in an almost malicious tone and said softly, "He dares to think so."
