Welcome to the previous chapter, you can unlock a new chapter if you subscribe! Shen Yu was very satisfied with his last few days in the Hou fu.
The only accident was that three days before entering the palace, the palace issued a decree to confer Shen Yu the title of Noble Lord. This had never happened before in his previous life.
Shen Yu calmly received the decree in the eyes of gratification, envy, jealousy, and resentment. The eunuch who announced the decree wanted to please him and said a lot of pleasing words.
"Marquis, you've really brought up a good son. This blessing is yet to come."
Da Huan was popular in the south. There was a system of titles for men after entering the palace. Under the Empress, the highest position was Noble Lord. In the eyes of others, the legitimate son of Zhen Bei Hou could be said to have reached the sky in one step.
Duke Zhenbei smiled proudly on the surface, but in his heart, he was unable to smile. If he had received the news of his legitimate son being favored before he had even entered the palace, he would have been overjoyed. But now, he was more worried than ever.
Shen Yu's attitude was too unpredictable.
Along with the decree, there were also various rewards from the palace. There was no official wife in the Hou fu, so all the rewards were sent to Shen Yu's courtyard.
Shen Yu received the decree and came back. Looking at the big and small boxes in the courtyard, he was silent.
A eunuch came with a list: "His Majesty said that all the things on this list will be handed over to Young Master Shen."
Casually opening a chest, a huge pearl came into view. Shen Yu paused and opened the other chests. Without exception, they were all rare treasures. Looking at the list that the little eunuch took, his eyes couldn't help but overflow with a smile.
But he didn't know that the young emperor who would be cursed by the people in the future because of adultery was such a rich master.
Shen Yu didn't look at the rest of the boxes. He directed the servants to move the boxes to the small storeroom. He began to think, did Shen Qingran also receive so many rewards in his previous life?
Shen Yu did not remember such a thing happening, whether it was in his memory of his previous life or the book he read after his death. When Shen Qingran entered the palace, he did not receive the title of Noble Lord, nor did he receive any additional rewards. Just because he was the eldest son of Count North Marquis, he could not let the man sitting high on the throne think highly of him.
"Young Master, it seems that Her Majesty likes you very much." Mu Xi took off the cloak for her weak and sickly young master, feeling a little happy.
The people who served Shen Yu came and went. Mu Xi was one of the few who stayed. She knew that her young master had suffered a lot in the Lord Protector's mansion because he was the eldest son of the Di Family. This time, because of Zhen Bei Hou's selfishness, he had to serve the emperor as a man.
The current emperor of Da Huan was famous for his war. His temperament was violent and his methods were ruthless. His reputation in the aristocratic families was not good. Mu Xi had been very worried about Shen Yu's encounter after entering the palace. Now that she saw that the Emperor valued her young master so much before entering the palace, she felt a lot more gratified. The matter had come to a conclusion. She only hoped that her young master's future would be smoother.
Shen Yu responded noncommittally. His thoughts were deep and would not be as simple as Mu Xi thought. However, the Emperor's actions could indeed help him a lot.
Not guessing the Emperor's thoughts, Shen Yu asked, "How is the manor?"
"Everything has been arranged according to what you said." The manservant standing at the side answered in a low voice.
Shen Yu nodded. He had always been very fond of his own people. He wiped his hands with a handkerchief and said to Mu Xi, "I have arranged everything at the manor. When I enter the palace, you take my token there …"
"Young master, nubi will not leave." Without waiting for Shen Yu to finish speaking, Mu Xi knelt down. "Nubi is all alone. Young master is nubi's only family. Nubi is not willing to leave!"
Mu Xi's voice was not loud, but her attitude was firm. She knew that this was the escape route that her young master had arranged for her, but she was not willing. "Young master, how can you enter the palace without a familiar person by your side?"
Shen Yu looked at the person kneeling below and knew that she had made up her mind. He did not try to persuade her anymore. "I know. Get up."
How could Shen Yu not consider what Mu Xi was thinking? Over the years, he had cultivated a lot of useful subordinates, but the palace was not like other places. He was destined to not be able to bring these people into the palace. However, this was not a big deal. There was naturally a use for them to stay outside.
After giving the corresponding instructions, Shen Yu waved his hand to let the people leave. Mu Xi helped them change into their pajamas. Once again, she raised her head to look at Shen Yu. She wanted to say something but hesitated.
Shen Yu lay comfortably on the bed. "Ask whatever you want."
"Young master, why did you cancel the plan?" Mu Xi struggled for a moment but still asked.
She was not the only one who wanted to know this question. The people who were arranged to be in the manor also wanted to know. Shen Yu knew that they would want to ask this question for a long time. After all, when the palace issued the decree, his resistance did not seem to be fake.
The people who followed Shen Yu all knew that he wanted to get the power of the Count of Zhenbei's Mansion. It should belong to him. There was no reason for others to take advantage of it.
However, Shen Yu fainted too suddenly and did not leave any clues. His people did not dare to act rashly and could only wait for Shen Yu to wake up.
Who knew that Shen Yu, who woke up, was abnormal. He no longer resisted the idea of entering the palace. The master did not say anything and avoided entering the palace. Instead, he changed the plan.
Regarding this development, everyone was at a loss. Mu Xi had been asked this question countless times, both openly and secretly.
"Did they send you here to ask?" Shen Yu thought for a moment and roughly guessed what had happened.
"I'm also very curious." Mu Xi did not deny it.
"I'm tired of staying in the Count of Zhenbei's Mansion. It's good to live in another place." Shen Yu's voice was as usual, as if he was not the one who had his official career cut off and could only stay in the harem.
Mu Xi was anxious, "But you don't have to follow the wishes of those people to enter the palace."
Shen Yu slightly raised his lips, "Do you think the current development is really what those people want?"
Thinking of the end of Madam Ru, Mu Xi was silent.
"Well, don't think too much. I naturally have my reasons for doing this."
After comforting the worried maid, Shen Yu's eyes darkened. He entered the palace because he found clues related to his mother in the palace in his previous life.
Shen Yu, the wife of Count of Zhenbei, was a short-lived woman. Except for her son, there was nothing else related to her in the world. Shen Yu did not have many feelings for this mother whom he had never met. He just wanted to find out something.
Closing his eyes, he seemed to return to the rainy night in his previous life. A faint voice came through the rain.
"… Are you sure about this news?"
"… It's destined … It's destined … The palace …"
Shen Yu rubbed his forehead and felt a fishy sweetness in his throat.
"Cough! Cough! "
"Young master! Young master … "
Something was knocked over, making a loud "bang" sound. Shen Yu leaned on the bed and his vision turned black.
"Someone, call the doctor!"
Before he could say anything, Shen Yu fell into darkness.
When he woke up, it was already noon of the next day. As soon as Shen Yu moved, the maid beside him found out and hurriedly got up. Not long after, the doctor came in.
Count of Zhenbei and an unfamiliar man followed behind the doctor.
Shen Yu couldn't get up and lay on the bed without moving. After the doctor felt his pulse, he was taken away by a servant. Shen Yu looked at Count of Zhenbei and the unfamiliar man weakly and did not speak.
It was the first time that Count of Zhenbei saw his eldest son so weak. His delicate face was pale and his eyelashes drooped slightly, giving people a feeling that he was weak and in urgent need of protection.
He turned his head and cupped his hands to the man behind him, "Thank you, Imperial Physician Gu."
Imperial Physician Gu returned the salute, "It's my duty."
Imperial Physician Gu stepped forward and took Shen Yu's pulse. Shen Yu looked at him for a while and then looked away. Imperial Physician Gu, Gu Chong, was the youngest and most promising imperial physician since the founding of the Great Huan Dynasty. When he was 27 years old, he became the head of the Imperial Academy of Medicine. In the same year, he lost his life because of a man-made disaster.
Shen Yu remembered him because of a person he met later. Half of that person's face was disfigured and he looked like an evil spirit that crawled out of hell. Only when he talked about Imperial Physician Gu did he sound a little human. At that time, Shen Yu was in trouble. That person wanted to take revenge on the same group of people that Shen Yu wanted to deal with. The two of them formed a temporary cooperation, but the conditions were not good at that time. They could only take risks. Their goal was achieved, but that person also died tragically.
It was the first time that Shen Yu encountered such strong feelings. It was also the first time that he doubted that he liked the Prince of Yue. After that, he found the two people's bones and buried them in a beautiful place. He didn't expect that he would meet Imperial Physician Gu so soon after his rebirth.
After taking Shen Yu's pulse, Imperial Physician Gu asked someone to bring the original prescription. After thinking for a while, he wrote a new prescription, "Young Master Shen's body is too weak. The medicine needs to be adjusted slightly."
"Will Imperial Physician Gu be responsible for my illness in the future?"
Shen Yu suddenly asked. Imperial Physician Gu was stunned for a moment, but he quickly answered, "It depends on the Emperor's arrangement."
Shen Yu nodded and didn't speak anymore.
After resting for two days, Shen Yu's body was a little better. It was also the day for him to enter the palace.
The Emperor understood that he had just recovered from a serious illness, so he simplified the process. Duke Zhenbei was not happy, but Shen Yu couldn't ask for more.
On that day, Shen Yu saw the man who was bound to him in this life for the first time.
The man was wearing a black imperial robe. He was tall, so the heavy imperial robe didn't make him look bloated. Instead, it made him look more imposing. He was indeed similar to the Prince of Yue, but he was many times more handsome than the Prince of Yue. How blind was he to like the Prince of Yue in his previous life?
"What are you thinking about?" Shang Junlin looked at the beautiful young man who was staring at him in a daze and slowly walked over.
The man's voice was low and sweet. After he deliberately lowered his voice, there was a special taste of tenderness. Shen Yu's ears twitched, and he felt a little bewitched.
One should enjoy life to the fullest. Such a great beauty was also pleasing to the eye.
"I'm thinking that Your Majesty is more beautiful than I imagined." The last syllable was slightly raised, as if he saw something he liked.
No one noticed that the young Emperor, who had always been calm, paused his footsteps.
"You like me?" Shang Junlin strode over and stood by the bed. He looked down at the young man who was sitting on the bed, and a sense of oppression poured down.
This was the pressure of a superior, with a murderous aura. The palace servants on the side had already knelt down and trembled. Only Shen Yu's expression didn't change.
"Who doesn't like Your Majesty's heavenly appearance?" In the silence, Shen Yu raised his head, and a smile spread in his eyes. "I naturally like it very much."
The south of Dahuan was popular, and there was a system of titles for men who entered the palace. After the Empress, the highest position was the Noble Lord. In the eyes of others, the legitimate son of Duke Zhenbei's family could be said to have reached the sky in a single bound.
Duke Zhenbei smiled proudly on the surface, but in his heart, he was unable to smile. If he had received the news of his legitimate son being favored before he had even entered the palace, he would have been overjoyed. But now, he was more worried than ever.
Shen Yu's attitude was too unpredictable.
Along with the imperial edict, various rewards from the palace came to Duke Zhenbei's residence. Duke Zhenbei's residence didn't have a proper wife, so all the rewards were sent to Shen Yu's courtyard.
Shen Yu came back after receiving the imperial edict. Looking at the big and small boxes in the courtyard, he was speechless.
A eunuch came over with a list: "His Majesty said that all the things on this list will be handed over to Young Master Shen."
