Shen Yu felt something warm on his lips, and then the bitter medicine was poured into his mouth.
"Oh …" Shen Yu resisted and pushed the man who was half on top of him.
Unfortunately, all his resistance was in vain.
The tip of the man's tongue pried open his teeth. The purpose of the man was to feed him the medicine, so he didn't go too deep. Shen Yu's hand that was pressing on the man's clothes unconsciously tightened.
The medicine that he didn't have time to swallow slid down the corner of his mouth and wet the collar of his neck.
Shen Yu couldn't refuse. On one side was the man's strong tongue, and on the other side was the medicine that was constantly being poured into his mouth. He could only comply with the man's wishes and swallow the medicine bit by bit.
After swallowing the medicine in his mouth, Shen Yu felt that his lower teeth were gently scraped. He looked up and saw the man get up as if nothing had happened and was about to continue feeding him.
Shen Yu didn't care about anything else. He grabbed the bowl of medicine and drank it without hesitation.
He finally figured out how Shang Junlin fed him the medicine when he was unconscious. However, Shen Yu felt that it was better not to know.
Seeing that Shen Yu obediently drank the medicine, Shang Junlin's eyes flashed with a trace of regret. He brought over the candied fruits that he had prepared earlier.
Shen Yu ate some and finally felt that the bitterness in his mouth wasn't as bitter as before. "Your Majesty, don't you want to eat some?"
Without waiting for Shang Junlin to answer, Shen Yu picked up a candied fruit and fed it to the man's mouth. "Anyway, you suffered because of me. Your Majesty, you should taste the sweetness that I fed you."
Shang Junlin lowered his eyes and ate the candied fruit in Shen Yu's hand.
"Is it sweet?" Shen Yu tilted his head and looked at Shang Junlin's face.
"Yes." The candied fruit was sweet, but the candied fruit that Shen Yu fed him was even sweeter.
After drinking the medicine, Shen Yu's clothes were a little dirty. He didn't want to lie on the bed anymore, so he ordered Shang Junlin, "Your Majesty, my clothes are dirty. Quickly bring me a clean one."
As he wished, Shang Junlin found him a set of clean clothes.
Shen Yu stained his inner clothes. Before he changed his clothes, he glanced at Shang Junlin and said, "Shouldn't Your Majesty look away from indecent things?"
She motioned for him to leave quickly.
Shang Junlin remained unmoved. "Which part of your body have I not seen?"
Shen Yu looked at him without saying anything. Finally, Shang Junlin was defeated, "I will turn around and not look, okay?"
After that, Shang Junlin turned around.
Shen Yu saw that he really had no intention of leaving, so she quickly changed her clothes and put on her outer robe: "Okay."
Shang Junlin turned around and walked over to help Shen Yu tidy up his messy outer shirt.
Breakfast had already been prepared. Knowing that the two masters had already woken up, Eunuch Meng ordered the servants to serve the food one by one.
Shen Yu sat opposite Shang Junlin and pointed at a few dishes that he had never seen before: "Are these the new dishes developed by the plantation?"
"This is a medicinal cuisine specially prepared for you."
Shen Yu had eaten medicinal cuisine before, and without exception, there would be a faint medicinal smell. However, the dishes in front of him, even though he was so close, he couldn't smell a trace of medicinal smell.
Shen Yu picked up a piece with her chopsticks and put it into her mouth. The meat was fresh and tender, and the taste was indeed different from what Shen Yu usually ate. However, it didn't taste like the medicinal cuisine that he had imagined.
"I know that you don't like the smell of medicinal herbs, so these medicinal cuisines have been used to suppress the smell of medicinal herbs." Shang Junlin seemed to have sensed Shen Yu's doubts and explained.
"Did you find the grey-clothed man?" After eating, Shen Yu thought of the strange grey-clothed man.
He was very sure that he didn't know that person. Why would that person find him? What made him even more puzzled was, how could his illness be induced just by passing by?
Shen Yu's illness had been there since he was a child. All the doctors who had treated him said that his illness came from his mother's womb. Shen Yu had never doubted this point. Now, it seemed that there was a hidden story behind this matter.
As they were talking, the leader of the imperial guards asked to see Shen Yu outside. Shang Junlin didn't hide it from him and let him in to report.
The leader of the imperial guards first greeted Shen Yu and Shang Junlin before he started to talk about business.
"I sent people to search the mountain for a night and successfully caught a few people with evil intentions. They were sent to the prison for interrogation. The person that Your Majesty mentioned was also caught, but it wasn't my people who caught him."
"Who was it?"
"I brought them along with me."
The people who came were wearing black uniforms. According to the leader of the imperial guards, these people were also active in the vicinity of Cang Qi Mountain and happened to catch the grey-clothed man who wanted to escape. If it wasn't for them, the grey-clothed man might have really escaped.
The grey-clothed man was very familiar with the imperial guards' style. He avoided all of their detection routes and also had a way to deal with the Hidden Dragon Guards. After a few rounds of camouflage to avoid detection, he disappeared from Cang Qi Mountain without a trace.
"Thank you very much. If you need anything, you can ask directly." Shen Yu said.
"We are just following our master's orders. There's no need for you to say anything.
Thank you. "One of the black-clothed men replied.
Shen Yu wasn't surprised by this reply. These two men looked like well-trained secret guards. He just didn't know which family in the capital had the ability to train such a team.
After the imperial guards left, Shen Yu told Shang Junlin about his doubts.
Shang Junlin pondered for a moment: "As far as I know, the existing aristocratic families in the capital are not enough to train such a group of people."
Shen Yu: "No matter who they are, they have helped us. We should thank them properly."
Shang Junlin: "You are right."
Shen Yu: "Your Majesty, do you think that these people are the same group of people who are investigating the 'Fei Meng' incident?"
Shang Junlin: "Do you mean that these people are Gu Huai's people?"
Shen Yu nodded: "But we can't be completely sure."
Shen Yu suddenly remembered that in his previous life, Gu Huai always had a group of people who were loyal to him. He had seen the strength of those people. If he had to say, they could be compared to the black-clothed men this time.
The gray-clothed man was locked up in the dark prison and there would be special people to interrogate him. Shang Junlin and Shen Yu only needed to wait for the results.
Shen Yu found that Shang Junlin liked to stick to him even more. Except for the time when he had to review memorials every day, he liked to spend the rest of his time with him. If Shen Yu didn't find it boring to review memorials next to him, Shang Junlin wouldn't even let him leave during that time.
"Your Majesty, you can't do this," Shen Yu helplessly looked at Shang Junlin who was holding onto his clothes: "I just want to go out for a walk."
"You can wait for me to finish my official business first." Shang Junlin didn't let go.
Shen Yu argued: "Your Majesty, we need to be independent of each other. Even if we are an ordinary husband and wife, we can't always stick together."
After much persuasion, Shen Yu finally won some private time for himself.
"You."
Shen Yu turned around and saw a young man in a navy blue short-sleeved shirt walking towards him.
"Young Master Gu."
"Can I have a private talk with you?" Gu Huai glanced at Mu Xi who was beside Shen Yu and added: "It's about 'Fei Meng'."
"Of course," Shen Yu turned to Mu Xi and said, "You can leave first."
The fish had taken the bait.
Originally, after confirming that his body was fine, Imperial Physician Gu could leave. Shen Yu wanted to confirm some things, so he asked Shang Junlin to keep Imperial Physician Gu.
Imperial Physician Gu's younger brother, Gu Huai, was also asked to stay.
The next step was to create an opportunity for Gu Huai to meet him alone.
Shen Yu wasn't worried that Gu Huai would harm him. His people were all in the manor, and there were also the Hidden Dragon Guards in the dark. As long as Gu Huai was smart, he wouldn't choose to do anything to him under such circumstances. If he really did do anything to him, he could just get rid of him directly. There was no need to say anything else.
"You've been waiting for me?" Without any outsiders, Gu Huai didn't hide himself anymore.
The young man's facial features were still young, but his aura gradually overlapped with that of the person Shen Yu knew in his previous life. Especially his eyes, which were like a bottomless abyss, overflowing with hostility.
"I just guessed that you would come to find me." Shen Yu leisurely poured himself a cup of tea. "Do you want it? It's the best 'Rain Mist Silver Needle'. "
In his previous life, that person told him before he took action that if there was a chance, he would invite him to drink the 'Rain Mist Silver Needle'. Unfortunately, he only received the tragic news of that person dying together with the enemy.
This time, he came back with his memories, so he treated it as the last appointment in his previous life.
Without waiting for Gu Huai to answer, Shen Yu poured a cup for him.
"Do you like to make your own decisions when you're with Her Majesty?" Gu Huai took a sip.
"Children shouldn't meddle in the affairs of adults." Shen Yu slowly took a sip of tea. "You should cherish this opportunity. Next time, if you want to drink it, you can only make it for yourself."
Gu Huai was speechless. After a long while, he said, "You're not much older than me."
"Yes," Shen Yu directly admitted. "But I'm married. Haven't you heard? After marriage, I'm an adult."
Gu Huai took a deep breath and decided to get down to business. "I want to know if the Imperial Palace is involved in the matter of 'Fei Meng'."
From the clues he found, the Imperial Palace and "Fei Meng" were inextricably linked.
"I can't guarantee others, but I can be sure that Her Majesty is absolutely not involved in the matter of 'Fei Meng'. I was the one who suggested to investigate 'Fei Meng'." Shen Yu's expression became serious.
"I believe you." Gu Huai took a deep look at Shen Yu, took out a secret letter from his chest, and pushed it in front of Shen Yu. "This is the clue my people found. You may have found some of it as well."
"The people who caught the gray-robed man were your people, right?" Shen Yu didn't take the secret letter, but asked about another matter.
Gu Huai: "Yes, before the cooperation, I should have shown you some sincerity.
Besides this time, the people who shouted out the identity of the King of Yue in public were also arranged by me. "
Shen Yu: "What is your purpose?"
"I want to find the initiator of 'Fei Meng' and avenge my family!" Gu Huai didn't beat around the bush. When he said these words, his tone was cold.
"Before the matter of 'Fei Meng' is completely resolved, I can only say this much." Gu Huai loosened his clenched fist. "If something happens, I hope Her Majesty can protect my brother. When the time comes, don't worry about me."
"Imperial Physician Gu definitely doesn't think so." Shen Yu shook his head. If not, how could Gu Huai survive after being implicated in such a big case in his previous life?
It was impossible to investigate the truth of his previous life. Fortunately, he had changed Imperial Physician Gu's ending.
When Shang Junlin finished his work and came looking for him, Gu Huai had already left. Shen Yu was staring at the empty cup in a daze.
"What did Gu Huai say to you?"
Shen Yu wasn't surprised that Shang Junlin knew about his private meeting with Gu Huai. He had already talked to Shang Junlin about it. He handed the unopened secret letter to the man: "It's about 'Fei Meng'."
Shang Junlin put the secret letter aside and said thoughtfully: "Why didn't Gu Huai come directly to us?"
"Maybe he has a knot in his heart. If he is really a child of that family who survived." Thinking about it, Shen Yu felt that if his family died because of the imperial family's muddleheadedness, he wouldn't be nice to the imperial family either.
Of course, this was on the premise that his family wasn't like Zhen Bei Hou.
It was better not to have them.
"Your Majesty, don't you want to see what's inside?" After returning to the room, Shen Yu saw that the man had no intention of opening the secret letter and asked.
"Guijun, come and look with us."
Shen Yu walked over and was pulled onto the man's lap. His waist was tightly hugged.
Shen Yu struggled, but the man didn't move. This position was too dangerous. Shen Yu didn't dare to move too much. He could only accept his fate and nestled in the man's arms.
Shang Junlin opened the secret letter and Shen Yu looked at it.
Indeed, as Gu Huai said, they had already found some things inside, but there were also many things they hadn't found out yet. For example, "Fei Meng" didn't originate from Da Huan, but was brought by a woman from a foreign vassal.
"Why didn't the palace record such important information?" Shen Yu asked.
Shen Yu was puzzled.
"Someone must have deliberately erased it."
After reading the secret letter, Shen Yu was about to get up: "After reading it, Your Majesty should let me go …"
Shen Yu suddenly shut his mouth and turned to look at Shang Junlin.
"Guijun neglected us today because of someone else. Shouldn't you compensate us?" The man murmured discontentedly, "Guijun even poured tea for him …"
