The small courtyard in early spring was covered with a thick layer of snow, and because of pregnancy, Shen Xizhen didn't dare to carry light work lightly, so he slowly walked inside with his skirt.

As she walked, she remembered the scene when she first met Chu Zihou in the Plum Garden, when the ground was covered with such thick snow, and the air was also full of cold breath, but his eyes were so warm, his smile was so kind, and his expression was full of joy as if he had found what he cherished most in this world.

At that time, he was like an uncarved piece of jade, so beautiful that her heart trembled.

Now, he has become her husband, and after just a few years of polishing, he already has the momentum and charm of a man, which makes her involuntarily attracted.

She loved him more than ever.

Come to think of it, he and she were really born for each other.

Thinking of those emotional years with him, thinking of the loving entanglement between them. Mian, her face flushed again.

She also secretly determined: she must strive to reunite with him as soon as possible and live a life of husband and wife hand in hand.

…………

In the Yuanqing Palace of the Tribute Kingdom, Yan Hao and Chu Zihou changed their conversation after they finished talking: "Zhang Chun, do you have any intention of falling in love with someone?" ”

Chu Zihou was shocked when he heard this, but his face did not show it at all, and he replied in an extremely calm tone: "Weichen has not met a suitable one, and he wants to do something big in the past few years, so he hasn't considered this matter yet." ”

Yan Hao immediately clapped his hands and said, "Great, great, my younger sister, Princess Jingyuan's youngest daughter has reached the age of marriage, and she is looking for a reliable and talented person, I am choosing among so many ministers or ministers' sons." In the end, I still feel that you are the best fit for her. ”

If Chu Zihou agrees, it will be a strong alliance. Yan Hao thought happily.

Chu Zihou couldn't cry or laugh when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Weichen doesn't dare to climb high. It's the truth. ”

Yan Hao waved his hand and said: "This is a question of whether to climb high or not, I think you are just right, Princess Jingyuan's youngest daughter is called Zhang Shufang, she is seventeen years old this year, she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is definitely a perfect match for you." Then Yan Hao asked his father-in-law to bring Zhang Shufang's portrait to Chu Zihou to see.

Chu Zihou couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw it, it turned out that the appearance of the character in the painting was somewhat similar to Shen Xizhen. Because of this, his expression became a little softer.

Yan Hao, who was closely observing Chu Zihou's expression, immediately lost no time in saying, "Zhang Chun, don't lie to me. Your eyes lit up when you saw her portrait just now. ”

Chu Zihou hurriedly explained: "It's really because she is beautiful, so Weichen will have a moment of a little disrespectful, but Weichen didn't ......" Before he finished speaking, Yan Hao said: "Don't be in a hurry to make up your mind, tomorrow she will enter the palace with Princess Jingyuan to watch the play, and I will invite you to go at that time, and you will talk about it after you have seen her up close." ”

"This ......" Chu Zihou suddenly said bitterly.

Yan Hao thought he was embarrassed, and said with a smile: "The man should get married and the woman should get married, what's so embarrassing, you remember to come to the banquet and palace tomorrow evening." ”

"Okay." Chu Zihou responded. But I began to think of a way to slip away.

Although she looked a little similar to Shen Xizhen, it was difficult for him to hide his joy all of a sudden, but he also knew that she was not Shen Xizhen, so he couldn't let himself do something sorry for Shen Xizhen.

It's just that. It's not good to go against Yan Hao clearly, so as not to make it difficult for him to do things after angering him. But he couldn't do what Yan Hao wanted, so he went back to the little white room with a heavy heart.

Lie on your back on the spacious bed in the small white room. Imagining the scene of sleeping in the same bed with Shen Xizhen here in the past, his heart became firm again.

But how can you refuse Yan Hao's kindness?

Chu Zihou thought for a long time. Finally came up with a solution.

Therefore, in the evening of the next day, Chu Zihou went to the Yanhe Palace with confidence.

Yanhe Palace is a place for the nobles of the Gongguo Palace to watch plays and enjoy dances. The design is very grandiose, and the details are exquisite, when Chu Zihou came in, Yan Hao and the queen had already arrived, Yan Hao saw Chu Zihou coming in and immediately beckoned to Chu Zihou.

"Sit here." Yan Hao pointed to the chair beside him and said.

Chu Zihou hesitated for a moment before sitting down.

"Since you are my military advisor, you naturally have to sit by my side." Yan Hao said in a natural tone.

Chu Zihou smiled and did not speak.

After a while, Princess Jingyuan came in with a woman about sixteen or seventeen years old.

There is no need to doubt that it is Zhang Shufang.

Yan Hao asked her to sit on a chair not far from Chu Zihou.

Chu Zihou found that she was more bright and moving than in the portrait when she came in, but he already had Shen Xizhen in his heart, so he didn't have much feeling for her.

After she sat down, Chu Zihou didn't even look at her again.

Yan Hao frowned slightly.

In other words, Zhang Shufang is famous for her beauty in Gongguo, and there are not many people who come to ask for marriage, why does this kid refuse to even look at her?

Is it shyness?

Not really.

Yan Hao was a little puzzled, he leaned close to Chu Zihou's ear and said, "I know that there used to be a person named Liu Xia Hui who was not close to women, but I didn't expect Zhang Chun that you have more self-control than Liu Xia Hui." But it's not good for a man to have too much self-control, and he should always be crazy when he should be crazy. ”

Chu Zihou didn't know how to answer, just laughed,

Yan Hao then put on a Yan sù face: "Then what do you mean-aren't you even interested in looking at her and chatting with her?" ”

Chu Zihou gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, don't hide it, Weichen is because of ......." but he couldn't say anything.

"Why? Do you like your brother? Yan Hao asked in a cold tone.

Chu Zihou hurriedly said: "Of course not, it is really because of Weichen...... There is a hidden disease, so there is no way. ”

"Do you have a hidden disease? How so? You look so healthy as a person. Yan Hao frowned again.

Over there, Zhang Shufang had received Yan Hao's hint in advance, so he paid special attention to Chu Zihou. When she saw that Chu Zihou looked like a talent, and his demeanor was elegant and generous, she was immediately moved, so she paid special attention to him after sitting down.

I didn't want to hear him say that he had a hidden illness, and suddenly he was disappointed like a basin of cold water poured down.

She didn't expect that the person she finally fell in love with would be in such a situation, so what should she do?

If you miss him, can you find something more suitable for your eyes?

But she had already vetoed most of the outstanding unmarried men in the tribute country.

She involuntarily turned her head sideways and looked at Chu Zihou boldly. (To be continued......)
