Shang Junlin woke up from his dream and felt that his arms were empty. He stretched out his hand and tried to reach for the person in front of him. He was completely awake.
The scene in front of him made him pause.
Although it was also an imperial palace, it was obviously different from the one he was used to. It was closer to the one Shen Yu had before he entered the palace.
Eunuch Meng walked in carefully when he heard the commotion. "Your Majesty?"
"Where is A Yu?" Shang Junlin picked up the clothes beside him and asked.
"This... Your Majesty, may I know who you are asking about?"
Eunuch Meng was even more careful. The palace servants beside him were also tense. Recently, the emperor's temperament had become more and more violent. They could lose their lives if they made a mistake. They had to be extra careful.
Shang Junlin sized him up without batting an eyelid. There were no traces of lying. He looked around. The layout of the bedchamber did not seem to be something that could be changed overnight. In addition, the palace servants' fearful expressions did not seem to be fake.
All the signs pointed to the most impossible answer. He did not know how he came to a world without A Yu.
No, he could not make a conclusion now. It was possible that A Yu was not by his side. He had to figure out the situation in front of him first before he made a decision.
Soon, Shang Junlin understood his situation. In this world, the one who entered the palace was not Shen Yu. It was Shen Qingran, the son of a concubine from the Count of North. He was not even seen before, let alone being loved by the emperor. He was directly thrown into the palace to fend for himself.
Fortunately, there was no involvement. Shang Junlin sighed and raised his hand to signal Eunuch Meng to continue.
"Young Master Shen was taken out of the palace. Your Majesty said not to care about him. I heard that he is now with King Yue..."
"King Yue?" Shang Junlin interrupted Eunuch Meng.
Yes, in this world, King Yue was not punished. Now that he had gathered a group of people, it was obvious that he wanted to rebel. Shang Junlin thought about how Shen Yu cared about King Yue in the beginning. He vaguely understood something.
He summoned the Hidden Dragon Guards. "Go and investigate King Yue. Tell me everything about the people around him. Tell me everything."
"Yes." The Hidden Dragon Guards accepted the order and left.
After a few days, Shang Junlin figured out what had happened in this world. Because Shen Yu did not enter the palace, many things developed differently from his previous life. His actions became more and more brutal, causing the people to complain. The King of Yue took this opportunity to wantonly win the hearts of the people. The people behind the King of Yue had not revealed themselves yet.
Shang Junlin already knew who the mastermind was. He was not afraid of these people. The most important thing now was to find Shen Yu. If he guessed correctly, at this time, Shen Yu should be beside King Yue.
His A Yu had chosen King Yue in this world.
This realization set off a storm in Shang Junlin's heart. He wished he could destroy everything in front of him to vent his anger.
While the Hidden Dragon Guards were investigating the King of Yue, Shang Junlin purged the Imperial Court. He got rid of those who were disloyal and had a firm grasp of the Imperial Court's power.
Shang Junlin's actions were too fast. Those who thought they were well-hidden were uprooted before they could react. Shang Junlin did not even give them a chance to retaliate. After he dealt with these people swiftly, the Hidden Dragon Guards also sent news back.
After handing over the Imperial Court to the Prime Minister and Fang Jun, Shang Junlin secretly left the capital.
He had obtained Shen Yu's location. He wanted to find him. At the same time, he also sent people to look for the Ji Clan. He did not know if the "Seal" on Shen Yu was still around in this life. It was better to be prepared if he could find the Ji Clan.
As for Imperial Physician Gu, Shang Junlin could not find him in the Imperial Physician Hospital. He only found out after he sent people to investigate. Imperial Physician Gu was implicated in a case from four years ago. Since then, Gu Huai had disappeared.
Shang Junlin ordered people to look for Gu Huai. In his previous world, Gu Huai was already married to Imperial Physician Gu at this time. With Gu Huai's obsession with Imperial Physician Gu, Shang Junlin did not think that Imperial Physician Gu would watch his beloved die in prison. After sending people to investigate, they found some clues. The real Imperial Physician Gu should have been taken away by Gu Huai.
King Yue's fief was located in the south of Yuezhou. It was not as cold as the capital during winter. It was just that there was a lot of rain. After Shen Yu came here, he was not used to the cold and wet weather. He was sick for a long time before he slowly recovered.
After a few years, he was able to adapt to the climate here.
"Young master, His Highness King Yue sent a message saying that he has something to do today and can't come." The maid carefully handed the cloak to him. She could not help but complain about the injustice for her young master.
How could King Yue have something to do? It was obvious that he was fascinated by the newcomer.
Shen Yu's hands paused. He took the cloak and put it on. "The weather is good today. I will go out for a walk. I don't need anyone to follow me."
"Yes."
Shen Yu tidied himself up and left the residence.
In fact, he knew that the King of Yue failed to keep the appointment mostly because of Shen Qingran. Since Shen Qingran came here, she liked to target him everywhere. She wanted to take away everything he cared about, including the King of Yue. Everyone thought that he would be angry, but in fact, he didn't feel much in his heart.
Shen Yu was thinking about something and did not notice that someone was riding a horse in front of him. When he heard a cry of surprise, he fell into a warm embrace.
Shen Yu was hugged and turned around. He looked up at the man who was tightly pursing his lips. "Thank you for saving me, young master."
Shang Junlin stared blankly at the person in his arms. He had been in this world for several months and finally found A Yu.
A Yu in this world looked very sick. Her face was pale and her body was weak. It was as if she could be blown away by the wind. When the horse galloped towards them, his heart almost stopped. At that moment, his actions were faster than his thoughts and he carried her away from danger.
She didn't care if she would leave a bad impression on Ah Yu if she did this for the first time.
"Sorry, sorry. Are the two young masters okay? I don't know why the horse was frightened and almost caused a disaster." At this time, the rider stopped the frightened horse and walked over.
Shang Junlin woke up from his dream and let go of the person in his arms. "Are you hurt?"
Shen Yu shook her head.
No matter what, the man on the horse had to stay and compensate. Shen Yu didn't want to be in a deadlock with him, so he accepted the compensation. After the man left, only Shen Yu and the man who saved him were left.
"May I know how to address you?" Shen Yu was a person who would repay kindness. This person saved him and he would not do nothing.
"My surname is Lin." In the end, it was the fief of the King of Yue. In order to not attract attention and to get closer to Shen Yu, Shang Junlin changed his appearance and identity.
He did not know what had happened in this world, but according to the information that the Hidden Dragon Guards had found, his Ah Yu was completely devoted to the King of Yue. How could Shang Junlin allow this situation to continue? No matter how difficult it was, he would think of a way to get Ah Yu back to his side.
"Young Master Lin." Shen Yu looked at the sky and saw that it was almost time for dinner. He invited Shang Junlin to have dinner together. "To thank Young Master Lin for saving my life, would you like to have dinner with me?"
Shang Junlin could not ask for more.
Shen Yu chose a restaurant he frequented and asked while walking, "I often come here. Is there anything you don't eat?"
Shang Junlin shook his head. "I'm fine with anything."
Shen Yu was a regular customer. The boss welcomed them personally and led them to the private room that Shen Yu frequented. "Young Master, do you want to eat your usual food today?"
Shen Yu ordered a few signature dishes and gave the choice to the man sitting opposite him.
Shang Junlin ordered a few dishes. Shen Yu was surprised to find that the man ordered all the dishes that he liked.
There was wine on the table. Shen Yu poured a cup for each of them.
When she poured the wine, her wide sleeves slipped down and revealed a thin and white wrist. Shang Junlin looked at the wrist that was almost skinny and his heart ached.
Shen Yu put the wine cup in front of the man. He thought of something and said, "This is fruit wine. It's not easy to get drunk. If Young Master Lin wants to drink something stronger, I'll ask them to serve you again."
"No need. Fruit wine is very good. It's easy to forget yourself when you're drunk."
Not long after, the dishes were served. The two ate and chatted. For the first time, Shen Yu felt that there was someone in the world who could get along with him so well.
During the meal, the relationship between the two of them had become much closer.
After the meal, the two walked out of the restaurant side by side. Shang Junlin looked at the gradually darkening sky and said, "It's getting dark. Let me send you back."
Perhaps the other party's gaze was too gentle, Shen Yu did not refuse. His vigilance against strangers seemed to have no effect on this person.
The two of them chatted as they walked, and the other party could pick up on any topic. It had been a long time since Shen Yu had a simple chat with someone. When he talked with someone, it was mostly with a purpose. Today was the first time.
When they talked excitedly, Shen Yu's eyes became brighter and brighter. The way he addressed Shang Junlin also changed from the unfamiliar "Young Master Lin" to the slightly intimate "Brother Lin".
"Brother Lin, you said that you just came to Yuezhou. Do you have a place to stay? If you don't mind, you can stay here for a while. "
Shang Junlin did not expect that Shen Yu would directly invite him to stay. He was stunned.
When he spoke, Shen Yu was looking at him. Naturally, he saw his movement. He realized that his words were inappropriate and hurriedly said, "I was just kidding. I …"
"It's not that I don't want to." How could Shang Junlin miss such a good opportunity? He interrupted Shen Yu, "I was afraid that you would find me troublesome. Why would I dislike you? To be honest, I just came to Yuezhou and I haven't found a suitable place to stay. I wonder if A Yu can take me in for a few days? "
Shen Yu pursed his lips, "Brother Lin, you don't have to make up for me."
"I'm not making up for you. I'm the one who wants A Yu to make things convenient for me."
Shen Yu liked peace and quiet. The place he lived in was a little remote. It was a small house, but the layout inside revealed the owner's care. The corridors, the pavilions, the terraces, and the attic were all pleasing to the eye.
Shen Yu took Shang Junlin to walk around the courtyard. Shang Junlin took the lantern from the maid and walked beside Shen Yu, "Sorry, I'm not used to being served."
Shen Yu waved his hand and asked the maid to leave, "I don't like it either."
Usually, Shen Yu rarely let the maid serve him. He wouldn't let others do his personal things.
The housekeeper received Shen Yu's order and tidied up the place where Shang Junlin was going to live. He led him there. Shen Yu also went back to his own courtyard to rest.
The next morning, Shen Yu woke up, "What's that sound outside?"
"It's Master Lin practicing swordsmanship." The maid answered.
Shen Yu changed his clothes and walked out. As expected, he saw the man practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard. Seeing him, the man put away his sword and walked over.
"Why are you up so early?"
As he spoke, he took the cloak from the maid and put it on Shen Yu. His movements were so skillful as if he had done it thousands of times.
Shen Yu was stunned, "I usually get up around this time."
"It's too early." Shang Junlin paused, "You're not in good health. You should sleep more."
