Chapter 165 Past Life
The news that Xue Shu was going to the Taoist temple was tightly guarded by Xue Lu and Xue Chen, and not many people in such a big capital knew about it.

For Xue Yue, this matter was a scandal that humiliated his family, and Xue Lushi and Xue Chen didn't need to tell him, he also consciously kept his mouth shut.

Outsiders only know that Xue Shu has reconciled with the Sheng family, but they don't know where she is.

One night, Jing Xing came to Tingzhuyuan to drink with Xue Chen.

After she left, Xue Chen didn't seem to have changed much. It's just that the once gentle and gentle gentleman now looks depressed, and he no longer regains his former glory.

Xue Shu floated in the air, like the perspective of some lonely ghost.

She saw Jing Xing raised his hand and drank all the strong wine in the cup, seemingly unintentionally said: "These days, why haven't I seen your younger sister? Didn't she make peace with the Sheng family?"

"...She's gone," Xue Chen lowered his head when mentioning Xue Shu, with a melancholy tone, "It's uncomfortable to stay at home."

Jing Xing nodded.

Having struggled in the officialdom for several years, Jing Xing has been able to cover up all his emotions almost perfectly.

But Xue Shu just felt that he was struggling now.

After a while, Jing Xing said, "Where did you go?"

"A Taoist temple outside the city," Xue Chen smiled wryly, "I don't know where that girl knew about that Taoist temple. It's so desolate and remote, and it's hard for her to find it."

"Where is it?" Jing Xing asked again, "It's just right, I want to go out and relax."

"Let's relax?" Xue Chen turned his head and looked at him, "Is there not much going on in the court recently? You are a busy person, do you have time to go out and relax?"

Jing Xing sighed, with a bit of melancholy on his face: "If you don't go out to change your mind, sooner or later you will be pressed out of something."

Xue Chen nodded, expressing his understanding: "In a few days, I'll take you there."

That place was so outrageous that Xue Chen didn't even know how to tell him.

Jing Xing also nodded and poured another glass of wine.

This night, after Jing Xing returned home from Tingzhuyuan, he stayed up all night.

For several days in a row, Jing Xing hardly even had time to eat and sleep. He cleaned up all the government affairs in his hands, and then pretended to be an idler, and went to Tingzhuyuan: "Let's go."

Xue Chen took him into the mountain.

The mountain road is steep, and there is a winding path that was cleared not long ago, which can barely accommodate two horses walking side by side.

From morning to night, they finally arrived at the Taoist temple.

The Taoist temple in front of me was indeed desolate and lonely. There were no lanterns lit in front of the door, and the wind coming out of the Taoist temple carried a rotten smell.

Even if the walls are repainted and the gate is re-changed, the desolation of the Taoist temple cannot be concealed.

Jing Xing secretly took a breath of air.

Xue Chen was familiar with the road, and led Jing Xing around a large circle, and entered a garden.

Different from the outside, this garden is full of vitality, and there are faint voices of women talking and laughing.

Jing Xing didn't go in.

He just stood at the door with Xue Chen and listened for a while, until the candles were extinguished in the garden, he turned and left.

The two did not spend the night here, and rode back the same way.

It's not that I don't want to live, it's that I don't have a place.

On the way back, Jing Xing asked again: "I remember back then, didn't your sister make a lot of noise to marry that Mr. Sheng? Why did you get back together again?"

At the beginning, in order for Xue Shu to marry Sheng Gu, even the queen was alarmed.

With such a big battle, how can we just leave?
How weird it is.

Mentioning this matter, Xue Chen sighed again.

He said that Sheng Gu poisoned Xue Shu.

Fortunately, Qingyu was alert and came back to send reinforcements.

Xue Shu doesn't have many poisonings, and now there are decoctions in the garden, as long as they are well maintained, this poison is nothing.

Jing Xing didn't speak any more.

The two walked down the mountain in silence and returned to the capital.

*
The screen turned again, and it was a picture of purgatory on earth.

Zhu Yaoxing was silently excited.

I'm coming!

Take a good look at how cruel Jing Xing really is!

Xue Shu would remember this place even after she died.

It is the backyard of the Sheng family, the open space just past the Chuhuamen.

Jing Xing was dressed in ink, and was riding on a tall horse, holding a snow-white handkerchief in his hand, and was slowly wiping off the blood on his hands.

However, his expression was indifferent, as if what he wiped was not blood, but tea that had accidentally spilled on his hands.

Sheng Song and Mrs. Sheng were hung by two rough hemp ropes, dangling in the corridor.

Sheng Gu fell to the ground in a pool of blood.

If Xue Shu hadn't been too familiar with Sheng Gu, she wouldn't have dared to be sure who that bloody mass on the ground was.

Zhu Yaoxing also has a conscience.

He was afraid that Xue Shu would not be able to accept such a bloody scene, so he cut the scene directly.

*
I don't know what time it was, anyway, it was night again, in Tingzhu Garden again, Xue Chen and Jing Xing were drinking in the corridor again.

They talked about Xue Shu again.

Xue Chen said that he had visited Xue Shu two days ago, she looked good, and he thought Qingyu took good care of her.

I heard that Xue Shu now goes out to climb mountains from time to time, and her health is probably better than in the capital.

Jing Xing lowered his head and smiled.

"It's good to live well..." Xue Shu heard Jing Xing say this in a low voice.

*
In the soul state, Xue Shu could not feel the passage of time.

I don't know how long it has passed, it seems that many springs and autumns have passed, Jing Xing's temperament has become more and more concise, and his gestures and gestures are all the aura of a superior, which makes people dare not look directly at him.

At that time, he had already supported and protected the young emperor to become emperor for several years.

In order to stabilize the government and the public, he was named the regent, and while handling the government affairs for the young emperor, he also paid attention to the growth of the young emperor, so as not to be misled.

Daliang is rich and prosperous, even if some unreliable emperor disturbed it, but the family is still rich, the people are still happy, and the court is still stable.

Even so, Jing Xing had to face many things every day.

It seems that it is harder than when I was studying, and it is much harder.

But he seems to have never married a wife.

Xue Shu had never seen any woman beside him.

On this day, a spirit banner was hung in the backyard of the Xue family.

After only hanging for three days, Xue Yue personally ordered to remove the spirit banner.

He said bad luck.

The short period of three days was just a blink of an eye. For Jing Xing, who was entangled in government affairs, he didn't have the energy to notice it at all.

After a long time, Jing Xing finally got some free time and came to drink with Xue Chen.

But Xue Chen has moved out of Xue's house with Lu Qin.

Orphaned and widowed, they live in a courtyard left behind by the Hou Mansion.

It was so convenient for Jing Xing to find someone.

He didn't even need to ask, someone took him there respectfully.

A spiritual place was set up in the courtyard.

Xue Shu's spirit seat.

Lu Qin's head was covered with white hair, his eyes were cloudy, his spirit was a little listless, and he coughed a few times from time to time.

When Jing Xing came, she had just finished burning incense, and Zhang's mother was waiting for her to wash her hands in the corridor.

As usual, Jing Xing bowed his hands respectfully to Xue Lushi, glanced at the tablet behind her, and asked casually: "Auntie, this is..."

Too far away, he couldn't see the name on the tablet clearly.

"It's Shu'er..." Lu Qin's voice was hoarse, "She's gone."

Xue Shu was still floating in the air, watching every move of the people in the yard.

She saw Jing Xing asked again, then strode into the room, hugged her tablet in her arms, her eyes were blood red.

After repeatedly confirming the name on the tablet, Jing Xing suddenly vomited blood.

Jing Xing was always in good health, why would he suddenly vomit blood.

Xue Shu didn't quite understand.

She only saw Jing Xing's blood stained on her tablet, sprayed on the ground, a bright red.

He hugged her tablet and cried a lot.

Nearly fainted halfway.

Then, Jing Xing went to the Taoist temple where she lived alone, and asked the old Taoist to take him to see the place where her bones were buried.

There is no monument and no spirit.

The old Taoist said that Xue Shu didn't want it.

Jing Xing didn't say anything, just nodded and left.

After returning to the capital, Jing Xing seemed to be the same as before.

He promoted his subordinates and cultivated his confidants.

After the young emperor gradually grew into what he expected, Jing Xing left.

He returned to the Taoist temple.

Tuo Laodao buried him beside her.

Buried closer.

But it doesn't have to be too close.

So as not to disturb her tranquility.

Then he went to the garden where Xue Shu lived.

Lying on the bed that Xue Shu once lay on.

A cup of poisonous freedom.

 They were buried together in the previous life, so it can be regarded as he (orz
