Tang Zhaozong introduced a large number of Rus cavalry and beauties from the Rus Province of the Tang Dynasty, and he had a hard time.

After all, from that Tang Dynasty's Rus Province, it was easier for him to use some famous hermits to attract those people into his cage, but it was not so easy for him to succeed in the Tang Dynasty.

Also, in Tang Zhangwei's eyes, Tang Zhaozong, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, played with some beauties, and his voice was nothing, and even Tang Zhangwei would deliberately encourage him to do so.

That Feng Meiwei was sent by Tang Zhangwei, specifically to confuse Tang Zhaozong.

However, when Tang Zhaozong really worked hard, Tang Zhangwei would be nervous on the contrary.

Because, Tang Zhaozong is no longer familiar with the real situation in the Tang Dynasty. Second, that Tang Zhaozong will add trouble to Tang Zhangwei.

When Tang Zhangwei sent the beautiful Feng Meiwei into Tang Zhaozong's harem, he hoped that Feng Meiwei could play a role.

Unexpectedly, that Tang Zhaozong didn't add eyes to that Feng Meiwei, but only let Feng Meiwei be a palace maid.

When that Tang Zhaozong led those under his command to organize a powerful army with their special skills, those who were favored by Tang Zhaozong shirked one after another, they didn't like to cause trouble.

After all, it is not a wise choice to have conflicts with Tang Zhangwei and Bai Cunxiao.

That Tang Zhangwei was a smart man, and he encouraged Tang Zhaozong to recruit soldiers from the Rus Province of the Great Tang Dynasty.

Then, Tang Zhangwei skillfully stuffed his own people into these people.

Of course, that Feng Meiwei and some other beauties were also stuffed into Tang Zhaozong's court.

However, Tang Zhaozong actually let these people start as palace maids, which surprised Tang Zhangwei.

Feng Meiwei was desperate at first, but when she found out that everyone started as a palace maid, she began to breathe a sigh of relief.

Feng Meiwei swore that she would survive in this harem, and she would live well.

What is free to do? What's the use of freedom for me?"

"When did you receive this newspaper?" Lisa whispered, not answering his question.

"The day after your visit."

"But ...... Have you never even cried?"

"Nope. I was just shocked; But where do the tears come from? Do you cry for the past...... But that's gone with me, isn't it...... Her fault did not ruin my happiness in itself, but only proved to me that I had never been happy at all. What's there to cry about? Who knows, though? If I had gotten this news two weeks ago, maybe I would have been a little sadder......"

"Two weeks ago?" Lisa asked rhetorically. But what happened in those two weeks?"

Sunloff didn't answer anything, but Lisa suddenly blushed even more than she had just been.

"Yes, yes, you guessed it," Sunloff suddenly continued, "in these two weeks I have truly understood what it means to be a woman of pure heart, and that my past has left me even further."

Lisa was embarrassed and walked slowly to the flower bed, to Lenochka and Shurochka.

"What's the matter? You say, you say."

"Really, I don't think I should ...... Ah, but," said Lisa again, smiling and turning to Sunlov, "it's only half the frank, so what is it to be open?...... Did you know? I received a letter today."

"Is it Pan Shen's?"

"You said the same thing to me the day before yesterday. I want to know if you are pregnant with what we are used to calling love. That kind of intense. Blazing affection for him?"

"As you understand it,...... It's not."

"You didn't fall in love with him?"

"Nope. But is it necessary?"

"Why not?"

"Mother likes him," Lisa continued, "he is a good-hearted man; I don't have any reason to disagree with him."

"And yet you hesitate?"

"Yes...... And, perhaps,...... You, your words, are the reason for my hesitation. Do you remember what you said the day before yesterday? But it's a weak-willed ......."

"Oh, my child!" Sunloff suddenly exclaimed, his voice trembling, "Please don't be clever, don't call the cry of your heart weak-willed, your heart is unwilling to commit to others without love. For one you don't love. Those who don't want to belong to him, please don't take on such a terrible responsibility......"

"I listen to you, and I don't take any responsibility," Lisa began......

"Listen to the voice of your heart: it alone can tell you the truth," Sunloff interrupted her ...... experience, reason,...... It's all illusory and empty! Please don't deprive yourself of the best and only happiness in the world."

"Is that what you said, Fyodor. Ivanech? You yourself are in love and married,...... But are you happy?"

"I think, Fyodor. Ivanech," Lisa said in a low voice.

At that moment, Sunlov noticed that Lenochka and Shurochka were standing beside Lisa, silent, looking at him with a look of surprise. He let go of Lisa's hand and hurriedly said, "Please forgive me," and then walked back into the house.

"I ask you only for one thing," he whispered back to Lisa, "don't make a decision right away, wait a minute, and consider what I have to say to you. Even if you don't believe me, even if you decide to marry according to reason,...... Even in this case, do not marry Mr. Panshen: he cannot be your husband...... Really, can you promise me that I won't rush a decision?"

Lisa wanted to answer Sunlov...... But she couldn't say a word, not because she had already made up her mind to "make a hasty decision"; It was because her heart was beating so hard and there was a feeling of fear that took her breathless.

Wasn't it not so long ago that he felt himself, as he said, sink to the bottom of the river? What changed his condition? What brought him out and into it? One of the most common, and then, according to his own habits, subtly turning the subject to himself was deeply influenced by Pan Shen. Because she did not regard him as a guest, and thought that to relatives, almost a man of her own family, there was no need to accompany him as if he were a guest, so in less than half an hour he was walking with Lisa on the boulevard in the garden. Lenochka and Shurochka ran around the flowerbed a few paces away from them.

Lisa, as usual, was in a calm mood, but her face was paler than usual. She took the small, folded newspaper from her pocket and handed it to Sunlov. "Otherwise, I will be wasting my time here." Sunlov did not answer him immediately: he seemed to be absent-minded."
