Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Border Pass Waits for the Monarch to Return
Since Lin Huai was born to make trouble that day, Shen Anyan has had many days of peace.
On weekdays, I embroider purses, make snacks, and discuss with my uncle whether there are any special actions in the Lin Mansion recently.
Even Gu and Shen Anni, the two most yin and yang weird on weekdays, were scared to talk a lot less when they saw her.
The days are gradually very quiet, and the present world is stable.
But the stability of the present world in the mansion is not the real stability of the present world.
The paradox of life is that sometimes what you think is stable underneath is surging and breeding even more turbulent undercurrents.
Shen Anyan naturally knew that it was impossible to really be as calm and waveless as it appeared on the surface.
But every time she asked about Shen Qiyuan, she was told that there was nothing abnormal.
By the time the dark tide finally came to light, it was already the height of summer.
This year's summer heat is particularly heavy, and the cicadas on the trees outside the blue screen window are constantly chirping all day long, and the restless people are not at peace.
Shen Anyan has always been afraid of heat, so she used ice in the house early, and even felt that the steamed chestnut flour cake with osmanthus sugar that she liked before was too sweet and greasy, and replaced it with a lychee smoothie.
If Bian Niang hadn't stared at her, she felt that she could eat three bowls in one go.
It's a pity that even if she used ice, stuck the cicadas, and ate the smoothie, Shen Anyan still felt uneasy in her heart, she always felt that Shen Qiyuan was hiding something from her, but she couldn't say what it was.
Although she is doing it all over again, because the marriage contract with Lin Huaisheng has been dissolved, all kinds of things have changed one by one, and she can't just copy the previous experience.
She understands that returning to the age of fifteen is already the grace of fate, so she has been mentally prepared for it and is not entangled in the fact that everything changes.
Therefore, when she received the news that the foreign captives had attacked the border gate on this day, she was just stunned, and quickly realized that this matter had been so long in advance.
Shen Anyan connected the strings and felt that something was wrong these days, and only then did he understand that Shen Qiyuan was hiding his fears that this was the matter.
She was a little angry for a while, and she didn't know why Shen Qiyuan didn't believe her so much, so she even put aside the lychee smoothie and didn't care about eating, so she changed the gauze skirt she wore in the outer room and ran to Wuning Pavilion to ask Shen Qiyuan.
But when she really saw Shen Qiyuan, she softened her heart again.
If there is really a foreign invasion, there are not many generals used in the DPRK and China, and Shen Qiyuan will not be able to escape the will of going to the border to quell the rebellion.
This time it was really another twist and turn, and it was rare to see it for a long time.
Thinking like this, how can she be willing to spend the little time she has to see each other on being angry and noisy?
Shen Anyan got straight to the point and asked, "Uncle, did you already know that the foreign captives were going to attack the border pass?" ”
Shen Qiyuan knew that he couldn't hide it from him, so he didn't hide it anymore, and said slowly: "I know some inside information, but the reason is too dangerous, so I can't tell you for the time being." ”
Shen Anyan knew that he was worried about her again.
But is it really the best choice to blindly want to protect and hide the truth?
She didn't know how dangerous Shen Qiyuan's mouth was, but if he didn't tell her just because of the danger, then, in his heart, was she such an embarrassing person?
Shen Anyan felt aggrieved and was about to say something more, but Shen Qiyuan had already spoken.
"Third girl, Your Majesty's edict will be issued soon, and in the current situation, it is impossible not to appoint me for the suppression of rebellion at the border pass. So, I have something to say to you. ”
Shen Anyan didn't know what she was going to say, but intuition should be an extremely important thing, so she couldn't help but lean over and get serious: "What's the matter?" ”
Shen Qiyuan seemed to be a little sentimental.
He is always a very clean person, and it is rare for him to have such a sad appearance, which makes people feel that he is like a rather fragile dream, and he can't help but hold his breath, wanting to know such a complicated matter of Shen Qiyuan.
"That day, the old lady said that she wanted you, and I knew you were unprepared. I'm afraid you've been flustered for a long time, but I'm glad you finally said that you were willing to marry me. At first, I just hoped to use the marriage contract between you and me to help you clear up some troubles, but now that I think about it, I am afraid that my matter has become a new trouble for you. ”
Shen Anyan wanted to say that he was not very bothered.
But Shen Qiyuan didn't give her a chance, he just continued, as if he didn't expect Shen Anyan to respond to him.
In other words, he was afraid that Shen Anyan would respond to him.
He didn't want to know about the unfortunate outcome that was coming.
"You don't have to worry so much, some people are just an oil-paper umbrella in the rainy season of your life, and they will naturally withdraw from the stage when the rain stops. After all, you have to keep filial piety for your brother for three years, and in these three years, if you meet a lover, I will also let go with confidence. ”
When he said this, he only felt that he was a clumsy liar.
Because the real liars are three parts true and seven points false, the truth and the false, the false and the real, make people feel convincing.
But he was too clumsy, when facing Shen Anyan, he was always so clumsy, so clumsy that none of the whole article was true.
You could have worried about me a little more.
If there's one person in Kyoto who cares about my safety, I hope that person can be you.
Some people are the umbrella of your life in the rainy season, but can I be the umbrella that will never be abandoned.
Sunny or rainy days, it can be there, and the rainy season is over, and it will not retreat.
Will you meet someone better than me in three years?
What will that person look like, will he be as humble and gentlemanly as Xie Zeyun, gentle as jade?
I hope it's not someone like Lin Huaisheng.
No matter who it is, I will not be reassured and I will not let go.
Can you forget all the above words, can you just wait for me to come back?
Shen Qiyuan sighed, looked at the elegant little girl in front of him, and didn't know where to start.
And Shen Anyan understood the uneasiness under his words, and the reluctance to give up under his magnanimity.
He didn't think she would understand that, but she did.
But just as Shen Qiyuan didn't say anything, Shen Anyan wouldn't be able to pick everything out.
But even if she didn't say it, she was moved.
Shen Qiyuan is like the sunshine in the daytime, always making people feel that he should exist.
Rightfully bright.
Warmly deservedly warm.
But Shen Anyan knows that nothing in this world is just what it should be.
Shen Qiyuan's warmth is not something that should be taken for granted, and she will also warm the other party in her own way.
She hopes that she can be the same as Shen Qiyuan, a person who can illuminate others, more greedy, she hopes to become the sunshine between Shen Qiyuan and herself.
Shen Anyan finally smiled, and brought a snack to have a tacit understanding, so why bother to say more about relief: "Uncle don't worry, I will wait for you to come back." ”
