Listening to Shen's father and Shen's mother's affirmation of Mu Zhao, there was a little joy in her heart, she has always been not very emotional, except for her relatives, there are few emotional fluctuations, but at this moment, she is very sure, she cares very much about what her relatives think of Mu Zhao.

"Wood powder hibiscus flowers, red calyx in the mountains. The stream is lonely, and they open and fall. ”

There was a red note on the desk, and the graceful handwriting on the paper caught her eye.

This is a letter sent by Mu Zhao not long ago.

There are only a few short sentences on the letter, which is Wang Wei's poem.

This poem seems to let her know his heart.

The hibiscus flower at the top of the branch blooms with a bright red calyx in the mountains. The mouth of the stream was silent, and there was no trace, and they all bloomed and fell alone.

She seemed to feel the loneliness of his time in this world, he was like a hibiscus growing at the top, even if it was dazzling and dazzling, but it suffered from loneliness and defeat alone.

He seems to be as warm as jade, but his heart is lonely and depressed.

She picked up the pen and wrote down the words "The sea dream is long, and you are worried about me" to show her answer.

"Ah Ci, you go and inquire about Mu Gongzi." Shen Nanyan couldn't understand the reason for his loneliness and depression, and called Ah Ci to inquire.

Ah Ci responded, and was about to retire, she thought about it, and finally felt that it was inappropriate to inquire about other people's privacy, "Hey, Ah Ci, you don't have to go." ”

Her series of actions made Ah Ci a little confused: "Miss, how do I feel that you have been weird since you left the palace." ”

"Weird?"

"Yes, I always feel that you have a heart for Mu Gongzi." Ah Ci puffed out his cheeks and said.

"Attentive? It's just curiosity. She replied lightly, trying to cover up the anomaly of her behavior today.

"Well, it looks like I'm thinking too much." Ah Ci didn't think about it deeply, and quickly put this matter behind him.

The days have been as smooth as water, and nothing major has happened in recent months.

In the past few months, she and Mu Zhao have exchanged letters, and each other's interests and ambitions can also be glimpsed, and there is a feeling of sympathy for a while.

It's just that summer is coming, the days are getting longer, and the climate is hot and dry, which makes people feel irritable.

The Shen Mansion has now lost its military power, but Shen Jin is still there, although the Shen family is not as beautiful as it was that day, but it is also either rich or expensive, naturally, it is unwilling to treat itself badly in terms of food and clothing.

Today, she is wearing a plain skirt embroidered with hibiscus patterns, covered with a good soft white gauze, embellished with a few hostas, and her makeup is light and fresh, which gives the summer heat a little coolness.

"Ah Ci, you ordered someone to prepare the carriage, I have to go to the Li Mansion today."

A few days ago, I just got the news that Master Li died in his homeland a month ago.

I heard that before leaving, he specially changed into the official uniform of joining the WTO, and just lay quietly on the couch, unable to sleep for a long time.

In just a few months, the tough and healthy people of the past are long gone, it is really regrettable, as the veteran of the three dynasties, he has been for the country all his life, he has done his best, and he has died, and he has not forgotten to miss the country, which is really sad and lamentable.

Lord Li had previously rejected the proposal of the descendants of Song Heng's official Meng Ze in front of the palace, and Lord Li had been honest and upright all his life, and as his descendants, he would definitely not live a very prosperous life.

There were people in the court who admired and admired Lord Li for a while, and they secretly helped the descendants of the Li family, and the Shen family was in an awkward position at this time, and the military power was withdrawn.

But for Shen's father, Lord Li really deserves to be a true gentleman, and there is no personal honor or disgrace in front of the country, and he should be a man like Li Shilang. If one day, if he dies on the battlefield, he will naturally have no regrets.

Therefore, Shen's father quietly instructed Shen Nanyan to let her go to the Li Mansion privately.

Naturally, there will be no more attention to the deep boudoir woman than Shen Jin's father, and Song Heng or the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government don't care much about it, and Shen Nanyan is not suitable for going to the Li Mansion.

"Miss Shen, I am grateful for General Shen's kindness, and I hope that Miss Shen will say hello to General Shen for me when she returns home." The calm literati voice is strong and powerful, with gentle kindness.

"Lord Li is polite." Shen Nanyan smiled slightly.

Li Wen is the son-in-law of Lord Li, and his official position is not too high, only from the fourth grade, compared to the courtiers in the court, it is far worse, plus Lord Li refused the grace of his son to attack his father's lordship and the grandson of Meng Ze, so naturally Li Wen is the only official in the Li Mansion, and Yu Lu is far from being able to afford the expenses of a large family.

"Ah Yan, you send Miss Shen." Li Wen commanded to a young boy next to him.

"Got it, Daddy." The young man smiled with his eyebrows, not at all like the elegant character of the Li family's literati.

The two walked out of the Li Mansion together, the young man was a lively character, and he pulled her to chirp and ask questions along the way.

"Sister Shen, on the day of the palace banquet, did you see what the emperor looked like?"

The questions of teenagers are always so simple that they are ridiculous. But she was full of interest today, but patiently commented: "The emperor is handsome and chic, and his appearance is excellent." ”

"Then Sister Shen, do you like the emperor? I thought about entering the palace to be his concubine. ”

This is a presumptuous question, if the young man in front of him is only thirteen or fourteen years old, this move is really rude.

"I don't like it." She said softly, as cold as a cicada.

Hearing this, the young man turned his head, looked at the surprise that flashed in her eyes, and was about to speak.

In the next second, a gentle voice rang out.

"Miss Shen, Mr. Li."

Outside the door of the Li Mansion, a man stood in the wind, his figure was elegant and slender in white brocade, and a gentle smile was raised at the corner of his mouth, as beautiful as a picture.

She was stunned for a moment and looked at him in a daze.

The man standing next to him was over thirty years old, knowing that his talent and appearance were not as good as Mu Zhao's, and he didn't care much about Shen Nanyan's behavior.

"Sister Shen, what are you staring at Brother Mu all the time?" Before she could speak, the boy exclaimed as if he had found a treasure.

It's good for people to be lively, but if you can't understand the situation, then it's not very wise, it's better to be the one who sees through and doesn't say anything.

The teenager told her about her behavior and thoughts, which really embarrassed her.

Hearing the young man's words, Mu Zhao was stunned, and Junxiu's face showed a stunned look.

Accustomed to seeing Mu Zhao's gentle and jade-like face like a crown of jade, the first time she saw him in a daze, she wanted to laugh a little.

Mu Zhao saw a smile flashing on her cold face, and even there was a smile in her eyes, she was even more confused, but she also knew that it was not a good place to talk now, so she had to say: "Miss Shen, don't come unharmed, the book that Miss bought a while ago has arrived, I wanted Brother Shen to hand it over, but I happened to meet Miss Shen here today, and Miss Shen happened to go down and pick it up." ”

In just a few sentences, it can also explain her actions, and it also found an excuse for the two to be alone, and spreading it will not damage her reputation.

"Then thank you Mu Gongzi." She wouldn't say no.

After getting rid of the boy, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Mu Zhao couldn't help but smile and said, "Ah Yan has a lively personality and is a little out of line, Miss Shen doesn't have to mind." ”

Mu Zhao is always so understanding, every time he thinks about others, as gentle as a spring breeze.

"Mu Gongzi is always so understanding." She stared at Mu Zhao's face and couldn't help muttering.

Mu Zhao smiled a little bitterly for a while, and it was difficult to hide his loneliness between his eyebrows: "Really? It's just that it's all exquisite, and it's just sleek. ”

She didn't pay attention to it just now, but when she looked closely, she found that his figure seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and the white brocade robe was much wider on him, and there was a black blue under his eyes.

"No, in my heart, Mu Gongzi is like a fairy-like character, compassionate to all beings, and can always easily warm others."

Shen Nanyan said what was in his heart, since he first met Mu Zhao, he could always surprise and shock her, and at the same time, he always helped her out of the siege so appropriately.

After months of letters and letters, she seemed to get a glimpse of his heart, and he seemed to have a sense of loneliness and sadness, with a faint self-loathing and misanthropy.

"Huh." Mu Zhao chuckled, with a hint of self-deprecation: "Miss Shen, this kind of vulgar person is not worthy of your praise, Miss." ”

"Mu Gongzi ......" Although she has a glimpse of his heart, she doesn't know where the sorrow comes from? Untie the knot in his heart, she has more than enough power.

Mu Zhao smiled apologetically: "That's it, it's my fault to complain here, it's my fault to disturb Miss's interest, let's send someone to send Miss back home." ”

Although Shen Nanyan has the heart to persuade him, he has nowhere to do it, and he is used to being cold on weekdays, so he generally doesn't like to talk much, and he doesn't know how to persuade others, so he just nodded lightly, "There is Lao Mu Gongzi." ”

On the way back when the servant sent her back, she was polite and polite, just like Mu Zhao's personality, which made it easy for people to have a good impression.

The carriage still came for a while, and she sent Ah Ci to buy things, so she was a little bored, and she asked casually, "Does your son-in-law come to the Li Mansion every day?" ”

It was a casual question, but she forgot the deep meaning, now most of the officials in the court are secretly promoted even if they are promoted, and now she asks this question, and she thinks that the private education of Mufu and Li Mansion is very good, and when it reaches the ears of the king, it will cause suspicion.

Xiao Wu is a transparent person, and the conflict was resolved in a few words: "Gongzi and Li Yan have some friendship, but I came to Li Mansion a few days ago." What does Miss Shen think of Li Yan's little son? ”

As early as when she asked, she realized how inappropriate that sentence was, and she was a little annoyed by today's instability, and saw that the little girl deliberately diverted the topic, so she was naturally happy to hear it: "Li Gongzi has a cheerful and lively personality, not like the elegant literati character of the Li family, and today I see that he has a steady breath and a tall figure. ”

The little guy nodded: "Miss Shen is really smart and clear, and her insights are unique. ”

Although these words are praise, this little guy is neither humble nor arrogant, and people do not feel flattery at all.

Just a small guy can see Mu Zhao's usual personality, he is extremely intelligent and careful. Even the people around him are people who observe words and feelings.
