Chapter 156: Male concubines are difficult (16)

Shen Yan was fed some cold water in his mouth, and half-opened his eyes in a daze.

Because of the fever, his vision was still a little blurry, and he only saw a dark shadow in front of him. He just thought he was dreaming about his father.

"I'm not your father." Liang Yu said lightly.

"Shen Yan, don't die, you haven't paid me what you owe me"

Liang Yu looked at his eyes and knew that the man was not awake, and said, "I will go to Xiliang, you can do it yourself."

"It's not my father." Shen Yan only felt that his head was very heavy, and his mouth was bitter and uncomfortable. Hearing that familiar voice, it was difficult to figure out who the person was. He couldn't help grasping him with ecstasy, "You, you are Liang Yu"

But the other party ruthlessly took his hand away.

"Don't go, please!" Shen Yan screamed, his throat felt dry and uncomfortable when he spoke, and a numbness came from his waist, and he completely lost consciousness.

When he woke up in the morning, Shen Yan was stunned for a while.

He shook his head, feeling that the fever had subsided, and then thought about what happened last night, whether he was dreaming or really saw Liang Yu.

I just hate myself for burning so hard that I can't tell if it's reality or an illusion.

But he vaguely remembered that Liang Yu seemed to be talking about Xiliang. If he really went to Xiliang, he would be far from here, and he couldn't go so far without money.

Shen Yanqiang went to the wharf with energy, but the foreman scolded him immediately when he saw him: "I haven't come to work for three days, what do you think this is, come and leave when you want, lazy and crippled waste, in the future Don't come!"

Shen Yanhui lost his face, and his only job was lost because of illness.

He was angry and angry, and turned to leave.

Shen Yan went to the river, took some water and washed his face, and he became more awake, but because he hadn't eaten for a day, his eyes turned black for a while, and he fell headlong into the river.

When he woke up again, Shen Yan realized where he was.

This is actually a brothel. When he fell into the water, he happened to be seen by the flower boat swimming in the lake, and the old bustard rescued him.

Seeing that although his clothes were a bit tattered, his appearance was beautiful. Although he was a little thinner, he was also a fair and tender beauty, so he began to lobby him to stay in the brothel.

Shen Yan naturally refuses, no matter how downhearted he is, he is still the son of King Han.

The old bustard couldn't coax him softly, and immediately changed his face and imprisoned him in the room.

The plan is to raise his spirits first, and then start. There are many ways to do it, and it is really impossible to get the next medicine in minutes.

Shen Yan had been hungry for several days, only thinking that he would have the strength to escape when he was full, so he was very cooperative.

After waiting for him for more than a month, he gradually became full of energy, his cheeks were rosy, he changed into gorgeous clothes and returned to the old mansion.

Although he is missing an arm, this neat appearance can't be found in Jiangnan.

How can I let him go.

"Yu'er, tomorrow is when you get married. Daddy, I will find a good master for you." The old man said to Shen Yan outside the door that night. After raising him for so long, he should Kind of paid off.

Shen Yan didn't dare to use his real name, and only called himself Shen Yu to the outside world.

These words made Shen Yan furious. He tried to escape these days, but failed every time. If he didn't want to leave today, he would have to be forced by this unscrupulous old bustard to pick up customers tomorrow.

If he, the prince of the palace, really fell to this point, how could he have any face to live in the world.

Shen Yan was pushed to the extreme. At this time, his anger was born out of courage, and he had no choice but to maintain his dignity as Prince Han. He decided in his heart that if the old man forced him tomorrow, he would be dead.

In the middle of the night, Shen Yan was suddenly awakened by a strange noise.

"Who?" Shen Yan got up in fright, was that the sound of the door being locked just now?

"Young Master Shen, you don't want to pick up guests, right?" A soft voice appeared outside the door, Shen Yan calmed down, lit the candle in the room, and recognized that this voice was from the top restaurant in the building.

"Can you help me?" Shen Yan was overjoyed, did he finally meet a good person.

"Naturally, like you, I was also tricked into this fire pit." The person outside sighed quietly, "It's just my way of helping you, you may not like it, but it must be useful"

"Any way, as long as you can let me out." Shen Yan stepped forward and wanted to open the door to talk to this person, only to find that the door was locked outside.

My heart sank.

The small restaurant outside smiled, but did not answer.

When Shen Yan was suspicious, he lowered his head and saw liquid flowing in under the door. He smelled a faint smell of oil in his nose. He was so frightened that he took a few steps back. In the next second, flames burst out from the door.

"If you're not dead, you'll be able to leave here." The small restaurant outside said, turning around and leaving.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and instantly engulfed the whole room, but because he was afraid of escaping, Shen Yan's room didn't even have a window, and the smoke and fire rose from the room.

Miao, forcing him to crawl on the ground, did not expect the burning beam on his head to fall, and finally fainted to death in the scorching heat of moxibustion and the thick smoke

When the people in the building found out that the place was on fire, the old man screamed and scolded, broke into the door, and the rough servant poured water in from the backyard.

The unconscious Shen Yan was woken up by the cold.

He found himself sleeping in a rotten alley. Although it was freezing cold, he was instantly refreshed.

This smile caused a sharp pain in his face.

Shen Yan gave a wry smile, and the small restaurant didn't lie to him. Thinking that his face was burnt out in the fire, the old bustard threw him out, and he was really free.

Shen Yan stroked his face, knowing that he must be disfigured, he couldn't help feeling sad, but it was better than being insulted in a brothel.

At this time, my heart was sad, and I looked up at the sky, and my eyes were already filled with tears.

In just a few short months, he has paid for all the sufferings in the world, why is he still so alive, desperate to survive, just because of his father, no, if he really can't survive and die, his father loves him, it must be will understand.

He just wanted to see that man again

He must go to Xiliang.

- a year later.

Xiliang Kyoto.

In the Beicheng District of Kyoto, there is a newly built Xiaohou Wangfu.

This time, the king's surname is Liang, and he has no real power. It is said that he was specially awarded the title because he saved the Queen of Xiliang.

Although he has no real power, this young waiter has a close relationship with the queen, so there are many dignitaries who come to compliment and interact with each other, and the number of customers is increasing.

On this day, a job advertisement was posted on the outer wall of the palace.

As soon as I heard that the mansion was recruiting people, many people immediately went to watch, but this was a surprise.

It was written on the recruitment list that the Houfu only provided three meals and lodging, but no money was included. Those who came to sign contracts for 20 years, and those who breached the contract would lose a thousand taels of silver.

"This is the first time I saw such a shameless job listing, and I still have to sign a contract for 20 years without paying wages. Isn't it obvious that it is selling one's body and exploiting it, bah! It's just

A powerless little prince, who really thinks he has become a prince and aristocrat to bully people like this, he is stingy at home, and only a fool would do it."

There was a lot of discussion, and the crowd was angry.

A group of people were chatting and discussing, when a man in tattered clothes and disheveled came over.

When I got to the wall, I tore off the job list and said in a low and hoarse voice, "I'm going."

A group of people clicked their tongues and watched the beggar walk to the door and knocked on the copper door, their eyes widened.

When Qing said anything, he saw the beggar being brought into the house.

The door to the palace was closed again.

Shen Yan followed the servant with his head down. He glanced around along the way. Seeing this gorgeous mansion, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Although it is not comparable to the Han Palace, it is also not comparable to ordinary people.

Over time, the identities of the two changed sharply.

He was even worse than the former Liang Yu, and now he is in a state of dilapidation, and he really can only ask for food.

Begging all the way, walking thousands of miles, his body and mind have been frustrated by this hard life, but in the end he came to Xiliang, and as he thought, it was not difficult to find Liang Yu.

The servant took Shen Yan to see the housekeeper.

Shen Yan was still a little uneasy in his heart, after all, it was the mansion, and he didn't know if he would be left behind.

The housekeeper looked at him and looked at him, before nodding for a long time: "Although his face was disfigured, he was a little ugly, he broke a hand, and he was so thin that he collapsed in the wind, but he still had the strength to take him down to wash his body. , change your clothes, and be responsible for the laundry in the future."

Shen Yan raised his head, his eyes finally got some brilliance.

He opened his mouth but still didn't speak.

It's just strange that the housekeeper, knowing that he is a one-armed man, still asks him to do the laundry.

Later, I still didn't have the courage to ask questions. Those young masters who used to have tempers are no longer qualified to play.

In this way, Shen Yan became the servant of the Houfu.

After two days of work, I found that the servants of the mansion are living a good life. Although he has no salary, the food and lodging are still good. Compared with the life of begging for wind meals and sleeping rough, this is already paradise.

He couldn't help but inquire about Liang Yu's news, only to find out that he has been busy with business recently and has not returned to the house for the past two days. Although Shen Yan is a little disappointed, the most important thing for him now is time.

Under the same roof, there are always opportunities to meet.

Finally, at dusk, Shen Yan finished the laundry work and dried the clothes on the rope. At this time, he was too tired to straighten his back.

He kept beating his back against a wooden stake, scolding in his heart that this work was not done by humans.

Maybe when he saw Liang Yu, he could make a friendship with him and ask him to let him change his life easier?

He can also write.

When I was complaining in my heart, I suddenly heard two women passing by talking: "The waiter has returned to the house, and the housekeeper asked the kitchen to be quicker."

Shen Yan was stunned at first, but when he realized who they were talking about, he rushed towards the main courtyard.

On the way, Shen Yan kept thinking about what to say when he saw that person.

He has so much to say.

When rushing to the gate of the main courtyard, Shen Yan suddenly braked.

For a while, he was secretly wandering outside and didn't dare to go in. He just stuck his head out of the courtyard and looked in. He saw Liang Yu was talking to a few workers in the courtyard.

And Liang Shaoqing with such a hearty laugh is obviously a side that Shen Yan has never seen before.

- I didn't even have the courage to take a step forward.

He was hesitating whether to wait a few days to see him again, when someone suddenly slapped him on the back.

Shen Yan turned his head in fright, and saw the wrinkled face of the old butler, he smiled stiffly: "Butler"
