The forces in the Shangyin Imperial City are intertwined, and there are many open and secret exchanges between the high-ranking families.

As a result, guests come to those mansions from time to time, but the Regent's Palace is different.

Su Zhi is a rebellious person, that is, an old minister who has gone through two dynasties in the court, he is already very respectful if he can calm down, and he is usually cold to others.

It is precisely because of Su Zhi's lonely and arrogant temperament that few people lick their faces to climb the relationship with such a prominent identity as the Regent Palace.

King Lu came to the palace, it is a rare thing, although the maids in the palace are not in a hurry, but they are all a little nervous, after all, many things are very handy.

Su Zhi and King Lu entered the Chao'an Hall and sat down, and the maid served tea, but Shen Luo still did not appear.

"Ninth brother, I don't go into the palace to meet the emperor first, in order to come to your mansion to see your princess, why, are my younger brothers and sisters so afraid of seeing people?"

"Seventh Brother—"

"What did King Lu say?"

Su Zhi's words were interrupted by a light voice.

Su Cen and Su Zhi looked towards the entrance of the hall together, and saw a slender woman walking in wearing a brocade dress and a long skirt with brocade twisted silk.

Her walking posture is not dignified and atmospheric, about a brisk pace, but shows a girlish coquettishness.

Su Cen looked at the people who walked in, and when he turned his puzzled gaze to Su Zhi, Shen Luo was already standing in the hall.

"I heard the maid say that just now my girl rushed out of the east courtyard, and collided with King Lu regardless of it along the way, and I ask King Lu for forgiveness."

As he spoke, Shen Luo curtsied his knees and bowed, and then looked at Su Cen in front of him.

About the Su family is good-looking, Su Cen has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and the contours are distinct, although he is only wearing an ink-colored simple robe, which is not luxurious, but he only sits there, and his whole body still exudes the innate dignity of the royal family.

Compared with Su Zhi, Su Cen looks much more burly, which can be described as heroic and extraordinary, giving people a sense of majesty.

In comparison, Su Zhi looked a little thinner.

Especially his peach blossom eyes, he used to only feel amorous, but now compared with Su Cen, it is inevitable that people feel that he is not frank enough, as if the corners of his eyebrows and eyes are engraved with grievances and calculations, like a poisonous snake that will attack people at any time.

"Hahaha..."Su Cen first raised his head and laughed a few times, then looked at Shen Luo and said: "Why should my brother and sister be so rusty, since you are the princess of Lao Jiu, you should be like him, and call this king the seventh brother." ”

"Seventh brother." Shen Luo smiled and blessed his body again.

probably didn't expect Shen Luo to not even be polite for half a sentence, Su Cen was slightly stunned, and then laughed again.

only laughed for a while before he was quite happy and said: "Ninth brother, my brother and sister are worthy of the woman you fancied, it's really interesting!" ”

"Seventh brother praised, the elegy used to be in the deep palace, and now in the imperial city, where can she compare to the seventh sister-in-law's knowledge, she is just bolder, but there is nothing interesting."

Su Zhi beckoned to Shen Luo and motioned for her to sit next to him.

Shen Luo paused for a moment, and then took a step.

Fang Cai also righteously cleared up the relationship between the two people, but at this moment, when he heard Su Zhi say the word 'elegy', Shen Luo was still sad in his heart.

She knew her identity and purpose best, but the word 'elegy' still stabbed her like a thorn.

You are a killer, you should not have compassion, and you must understand that everything you have now is just a dream that will be shattered at any time.

"Excuses?"

Su Zhi's voice was still low in his ears, and Shen Luo raised his head to look at him: "What's wrong?" ”

Su Zhi glanced at Su Cen: "The seventh brother said that you have time to go to the Lu Palace, and the seventh sister-in-law can't talk to those noble ladies in the imperial city." ”

Pressing down the sourness in his heart, Shen Luo looked at Su Cen: "Just now I was thinking about my personal maid, so I was a little distracted, and I ask Seventh Brother for forgiveness." ”

"If you call this king a seventh brother, where will this king care about you, but since my younger brother and sister feel sorry, I have to talk to your seventh sister-in-law."

"That's nature."

King Lu speaks as well as his appearance gives people the same feeling, quite a kind of informal pride, and it is very comfortable to get along with him.

If you don't return to Beijing for a long time, you should go to meet the emperor first, although King Lu was curious for a while, and ran to take a special look at Shen Luo, but he didn't say anything for long and left.

Originally, Su Cen was in charge of welcoming Su Cen today, but when he left from the Regent's Palace, Su Cen said that he would just enter the palace by himself.

About this is the character of King Lu, Su Zhi was not polite, so he only sent Su Cen into the carriage into the palace, and he returned to the palace with Shen Luo.

"What's wrong with the princess? This king feels that from the beginning of the court in the temple, you seem... Not very happy? ”

Su Zhi's steps were slow, he took Shen Luo's hand, and kept staring at the subtle changes in Shen Luo's face.

Turning his head to Su Zhi and smiling, Shen Luo said, "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about Fran......

"Stand down, all of you."

Now that the distinguished guests came, the little maids at the natural door, and the maids who served, there were quite a few people, and at this moment, in addition to Banxia, there were also a few girls who followed behind the two.

Hearing Su's order, the maids all retreated.

Banxia's steps were a little slower, and when he saw Shen Luo, he glanced at him, and then walked with the rest of the people, but he went towards the west courtyard.

"Shen Luo."

When everyone was cleared, only Shen Luo and Su Zhi were left on the stone road, Su Zhi took Shen Luo's hand, stopped suddenly, and called 'Shen Luo'.

His eyebrows jumped, and Shen Luo frowned and was about to reproach Su Zhi and ask him to be careful of the trouble coming out of his mouth.

Without waiting for Shen Luo to speak, Su Zhi's fingers reached Shen Luo's lips and stopped.

"Shhhh

The man's slightly rough fingertips rubbed lightly in the center of Shen Luo's eyebrows, and he said slowly: "Don't frown, Shen Luo." ”

As if deliberately emphasizing something, Su Zhi called Shen Luo's name again.

“… Lord, the partition wall has ears. Shen Luo replied indifferently.

Immediately, as if she didn't want to see Su Zhi's pious expression, she turned her face away, but her eyes were swaying.

"Is my Ah Luo unhappy when he hears the word 'elegy'?"

No.

She instinctively wanted to deny it, but she couldn't open her mouth because of her sore throat.

She felt aggrieved.

A killer who grew up in purgatory, she actually felt wronged? A fake princess who came to Shangyin with a purpose to stir up the storm, she actually felt wronged?

Oh, how ridiculous is that......

But people are so cheap, those things that don't belong to you, you know that they are destined to not last long, but you still have greed and attachment at the moment you get.

The man between his eyebrows gently caressed and left, and then his body was dragged into a warm embrace.

"Shen Luo, do you know how happy I am?"

Su Zhi buried his head on Shen Luo's shoulder, because of the lowering of his head, his already hoarse voice became more and more blurred, like a lover's whispering.

"Someday... Shen Luo, I will be upright and marry you. ”

Is it a promise?

Shen Luo crouched on Su Zhi's chest, listening to his sonorous heartbeat.

But her heart couldn't beat. Her heart can be hard, she can die, but she can't beat for him.

Shen Luo, you remember, promise is the lightest thing in the world, and when the wind blows, it disperses.

"Okay?" Su asked.

The wind of early June carried the scorching summer heat, and at this moment the breeze was blowing the man's black hair.

Whew... But it covered up the answer of the person in his arms, and the man did not dare to ask again.
