The atmosphere was inevitably a little awkward and dreary.

Song Chaodu was secretly surprised, the women of Great Xia were indeed much more open than the previous dynasty, but it was very rare for people like Lian Ruohan to dare to love and hate. In addition to secretly admiring Lian Ruohan's boldness and enthusiasm, he couldn't help but worry about Xia Xiang, how innocent Xia Xiang was, and there was a strong rival of Cui He and a rival in love when he saw His Royal Highness.

However, Li Dingshan was happy to see this and was very happy for Xia Xiang. He also knows Xia Xiang's personality very well, and before he got married, he would definitely not have anything out of the ordinary with Lian Ruohan. And he also saw that Lian Ruohan was still a virgin, and it was precisely because of this that he admired Lian Ruohan's pattern and courage even more. Whether it is Cao Shuli or Xiao Jia, perhaps the gentleness and strength of the two can be compared with Lian Ruohan, but when it comes to rebellious spirit and fearless spirit, the two are much worse.

Cao Yongguo felt a bitterness in his heart, the marriage between his daughter and Xia Xiang was basically hopeless, Lian Ruohan was so radical and fearless, which not only greatly surprised him, but also made him admire Lian Ruohan's courage to challenge the world even more. Xia Xiang has Lian Ruohan as his wife, which is really a blessing for three lives.

"When Lian Niangzi and Xia Xiang get married, this king will definitely give a small gift." King Jing also asked Yu Lian Ruohan, he knew very well that if the third prince inherited the throne, not only would his position as King Jing be difficult to protect, but even the king would be demoted to a commoner, "The matter of Jin Jia and Ye Muping, please entrust Lian Niangzi." ”

"His Royal Highness King Jing doesn't have to be polite, this matter is also the little woman's business." Even Ruohan bowed to King Jing and left.

Li Dingshan sent out the door, he had something to say to Lian Ruohan.

Standing at the gate of King Jing's Mansion, Li Dingshan looked at a tall ginkgo tree by the river. The leaves of the ginkgo tree are already golden, and a few leaves have fallen on the Anding River, floating on the water, drifting with the current, not knowing where it will go.

Life in the world, most of the time is no different from the fallen leaves on the water, no one knows where to float next, Li Dingshan felt a little emotional in his heart, and there was a lot of relief, he knew that it was time to explain the truth to Lian Ruohan. No matter how strong Lian Ruohan is, she is also a woman and needs friendship and family affection.

"Lian Niangzi, from now on, you and I will be a family." Li Dingshan stood with his hands in his hands and smiled indifferently, "The two most proud students in the old man's life, one is in politics, Xia Xiang, who has a lifelong appointment with you, and the other is in business, who helps you take care of your business...... Xiao Jia. ”

Lian Ruohan confronted his father in public, let out a bad breath, and was still a little disappointed in his heart, Li Dingshan was about the same age as his father, but he was much kinder and kinder than his father, his indifferent air and calm bearing, as well as his identity as Xia Xiang's teacher, made her feel very kind. When I heard that he was still Xiao Jia's husband, I was even more surprised, and suddenly had a kind of family-like warmth.

Lian Ruohan looked upright, and solemnly bowed to Li Dingshan: "The little girl will also be a student of Mr. from now on." ”

Sure enough, it is a very smart woman, Li Dingshan laughed, and held his hands weakly: "Even the lady doesn't have to be polite, the old man can see you and Xia Xiang love each other in his lifetime, achieve great things, give birth to a few children, see you and Jia'er help each other, lay down a piece of the country, let the good times always spread all over the Great Xia and the South China Sea countries, and die without regrets." ”

Lian Ruohan's face turned red, and he said in a low voice: "Don't hide it, Mr. Han'er and Xia Xianzun are not ......."

"The old man knows your hardships in his heart." Li Dingshan didn't wait for Lian Ruohan to finish speaking, and said with a smile, "Since you are also a student of the old man in the future, the old man will make the decision first and answer this family business for Xia Xiang." If he disagrees, the old man will not spare him. ”

"No, I don't want him to marry me out of necessity or guilt." Lian Ruohan is arrogant and has countless suitors around him, so he will not let Xia Xiang think that she will not marry him, and he does not want to marry her for any unavoidable reason, "Please keep this matter confidential on my behalf, I want to continue to get along with Xia Xianzun as before." ”

How could Li Dingshan not know what Lian Ruohan thought in his heart, such a high-ranking woman must not let Xia Xiang think that she was bent on marrying him, she had her self-esteem and arrogance.

"Okay, the old man must keep it a secret." Li Dingshan smiled mysteriously, "It's okay to find an opportunity to tell Xia Xiang about Jia'er's side of you." There is also an old man walking in King Jing's mansion, he should also know. ”

"Got it." Even Ruohan didn't ask Li Dingshan much why he wanted to hide it from Xia Xiang, and she could guess that Li Dingshan's previous stealth was for Xia Xiang's sake. She said goodbye to Li Dingshan and returned to Guanxin Pavilion with Ling'er.

Ling'er was sullen along the way, and when he arrived at Guanxin Pavilion, he served tea for Lian Ruohan, and then said the words that had been held all the way: "Lady, you can't just be so cheap Xia Xiang, he wants to marry a lady without much effort, and there is no door!" ”

"Ling'er, I'm tired, let's rest first." Lian Ruohan didn't want to mention it again.

"Yes, lady." Ling'er has followed Lian Ruohan for many years, knowing her temper, she didn't say anything more at the moment, turned around and went out.

When he woke up the next day, Lian Ruohan was still in a state of unease, had breakfast, returned to the study, studied ink and paper, pondered slightly, and wrote a poem: "By asking Xiao Xiang Ziyan, he once learned to dance for a long time." If you have to become a star, why die, Gu Zuo Mandarin Duck is not envious of immortals. The flounder mandarin duck is really enviable, don't you see you when you go and come twice? The hated tent is embroidered with a lonely luan, so as to take the door curtain and double swallow ......"

It is the "Ancient Meaning of Chang'an" by the early Tang Dynasty poet Lu Zhaolin.

After a few glances left and right, put down the pen, Lian Ruohan pushed open the window, the window is in autumn, like a landscape painting splashed with ink, far mountains and near water, even the Taihang Mountain in the west is also faintly visible. It is the most beautiful season in Shangjing, if you go to Xishan, whether it is Yanshan or Xiangshan, it should be the time when the autumn leaves are red. The autumn leaves are all over the mountains, and it is extremely splendid.

I remember that at this time last year, she climbed the mountain with Ling'er and a few friends to look into the distance, and her mood was as clean and blue as the blue sky. At this moment, she was inexplicably uneasy and irritable in her heart. The uneasiness is because of the break with his father and the family, and the irritability is because of Xia Xiang.

I believe that Xia Xiangyuan will also cry out for injustice in Zhending.

Lian Ruohan has always liked to be a maverick since she was a child, although she has a strong personality, she is not selfish, and she will not let others accommodate her in everything because of her own selfishness. She just tries to be herself and strives to be perfect in everything she does. Although it is hard and tiring, it is difficult to do this, but it is also enjoyable.

Only the matter of marriage has made her entangled. It was the marriage that was the main reason why she changed her surname in a fit of anger. Father and mother were married, and when they grew up, they followed the orders of their elders to get married. After getting married, they are like strangers, and sometimes they don't see each other and say a word for a month.

After his father took a concubine, he was extremely cold to his mother, and he often didn't see his mother for half a year. My mother lived alone in a small courtyard, and was so depressed that even after my mother became seriously ill, my father did not visit my mother once. It wasn't until his mother died of illness that his father showed his face. In her early memories, her father's coldness towards her mother was more ruthless than that of a stranger.

When her mother died, Lian Ruohan was only ten years old, and her younger brother Lian Ruoque was only five years old. Her father loved her and her younger brother very much, but she couldn't accept her father's love no matter what, and when she saw her father, she remembered her mother's lonely life. Although she was extremely indifferent to her father, her father still patiently cared for her and loved her, hoping that she could be obedient and marry Lu Zhiyue according to his wishes.

She thought that her father's love for her was out of guilt, and she didn't want her father to treat her as a marriage tool. As a marriage tool, the mother has a miserable life, has no happiness at all, has no autonomy over her own destiny, and is completely at the mercy of others. She will no longer be a pawn of fate like her mother, nor will she marry a man like her father, and she will be lonely and helpless all her life.

She wants to be strong, self-reliant, and not dependent on men!

But women can't participate in the imperial examination, can't change themselves through the examination for fame, and can't become officials, so there is only one way to go - business. Lian Ruohan spent three years planning, another two years to sort out Cui's connections, left a letter to his father at the age of fifteen, and then said goodbye without saying goodbye, and spent three years to establish a huge foundation of good times.

In the past three years, although she and her father have been in contact from time to time, they have not seen much or even less. In a limited number of meetings, her father either urged her to marry or let her go home, and didn't care about what she did, even if he knew that the good fortune she founded was expected to become the first business house in Daxia, his father still had a faint expression, because in his opinion, a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, and no matter how big the foundation is, it is better to marry a good family.

Lian Ruohan drifted away from his father.

However, she is not unwilling to marry Lu Zhiyue because she is angry with her father, and she really has no love for Lu Zhiyue. Lu Zhiyue has a weak personality, likes to ask for immortals, doesn't want to be famous or an official, just wants to be at ease, and is very similar to Cao Shujun. The difference is that Cao Shujun was lucky to meet Xia Xiang, and he still has a skill, but Lu Zhiyue is different, she is contaminated with all the problems of the children of the family, and what makes her unbearable is that Lu Zhiyue has no ambitions.

Today, he took out Lu Zhiyue's letter to his father in public to dissolve the marriage contract, and even Ruohan had already prepared, and what he wanted was that there was no room for maneuver. But she didn't expect that her father would retreat for the sake of face, and promised her to meet the king, and in a hurry, she used Xia Xiang as a shield, which was also a last resort.

I'd rather die in Xia Xiang's chess game than die in the chess game between Wang and Lu Zhiyue, Lian Ruohan thought hatefully, Xia Xiang, don't be complacent, this lady is not that you have to marry, but in comparison, you are more or less ambitious than Lu Zhiyue than Wang Yingjun.

But I believe that Xia Xiang will respond with a wry smile, please, who did the official recruit to provoke whom, not to mention that you were used as a shield, and you had to step on a few feet, the official is the most wronged one.

Lian Ruohan was fascinated for a while, and kept thinking that if Xia Xiangzhen knew about this, would he laugh at her and tease her, or would he be indifferent and not take her seriously? Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly pushed the door and came in.

"Lady, Cao Niangzi and Cao Langjun are visiting."

Cao Shuli and Cao Shujun are here? So fast. Lian Ruohan got up and greeted the door.

Under the dripping eaves outside the door, stood Cao Shuli and Cao Shujun. Cao Shuli lost a little weight, and her thin cheeks were more missive and less innocent. Cao Shujun is still the same, his eyebrows are flying, as if he is a child who has got candy.

After seeing the ceremony, Lian Ruohan led the two into the house. Cao Shujun sat on the chair with a big grin, took a sip of tea and said, "Lian Niangzi, since you and Xia Langjun left, I moved out of the Guanxin Pavilion. Living alone in the open space is lonely and cold, and it is not as lively and popular as your own house. The main thing is that the Guanxin Pavilion is without you and Xia Langjun, how can you still contemplate the heart? ”

Compared with Cao Shujun's radiant spirit, Cao Shuli sat upright on the chair, showing off her eyebrows, slightly melancholy, and didn't say a word.

Cao Shujun didn't care about Cao Shuli's loneliness, and continued to gush: "Even the lady, you don't know, since you and Xia Langjun left, I have been working day and night, carving out more than a dozen jade chains. By the way, I forgot to ask Xia Langjun if everything is okay? Actually, I didn't forget to ask, I wanted to leave it to my sister to ask. But my sister was full of worries, and she didn't want to ask anymore. ”

Lian Ruohan guessed that it must have been Cao Yongguo who went home, and told Cao Shuli what happened in King Jing's Mansion, and it was Cao Shuli who frowned. She asked softly, "Lady Cao, are you worried about Xia Xianzun?" ”

"Summer ...... Prefectural honor? Cao Shuli woke up like a dream, was stunned for a moment, and then laughed at herself, "Yes, he is now the leader of a county, and he is not the same as before." He...... Are you alright? ”

"Alright, all right." Even Ruohan will not tell Cao Shuli that Xia Xiang is in crisis in Zhending, except for making her more frightened, it is not beneficial, it is better not to say, "Xia Xianzun just arrived in Zhending, and he opened up the situation, and now Zhending County is governed in an orderly manner, known as Xia Qingtian." ”

"No matter where his talent goes, everything will go well." Cao Shuli nodded, and the melancholy in her expression eased a little, "Xia County Zun has just arrived in Zhending, and it is the first time to serve as the magistrate, and many places rely on Lian Niangzi, please also ask Lian Niangzi to help." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he had lost his mouth, and he smiled apologetically: "Lian Niangzi and Xia Xianzun are a family, and it is within their duty to help each other, so it is rude and rude for me, an outsider, to talk too much, to be rude." ”

"Sister, you don't have to be like this, it's a good thing that Xia Langjun and Lian Niangzi tied the knot, you see that I used to like Lian Niangzi, didn't I accept everything calmly?" Cao Shujun didn't like Lian Ruohan anymore, but he knew that the matter had come to this, and it would be useless to think about it, and it would only increase his troubles, so it was better to put it down, he put the fan in his hand, "Take a step back, Xia Langjun can pick two doors on one shoulder, and he can marry two ladies." ”

A sentence woke up the person in the dream, Cao Shuli's eyes lit up instantly, there is still fate between her and Xia Xiang, not that fate is over. Suddenly, the dark clouds in my heart drifted away, and I smiled: "Let Lian Niangzi smile, I also care about it." Recently, nothing happened, embroidered a sachet, a little care, not a respect. ”

Lian Ruohan took Cao Shuli's sachet, the sachet was exquisite, every stitch and thread was meticulous, and said with a smile: "Thank you Lady Cao, I remember that Xia Xianzun also has a sachet, which was given by you, right?" ”

"Yes, he also had a poem embroidered on his sachet." Cao Shuli's face was slightly shy, "It's a song of the Yue people." ”

"The mountains have trees and branches, and the heart is happy...... How could Xia Xianzun not know your intentions? After he went to Zhending, he never forgot you. Even Ruohan said this against her heart, she didn't know if Xia Xiang remembered Cao Shuli, and she had never heard Xia Xiang mention Cao Shuli, of course, she didn't spend much time with Xia Xiang, and most of the things she talked about were serious, but she was willing to believe that Xia Xiang was concerned about Cao Shuli, but Xia Xiang didn't want to say it in front of her.

"Really?" Cao Shuli looked surprised and bowed her head slightly, "Even the lady is lying to me again, he is the magistrate of the county, and he is busy with affairs, where will he have time to remember me?" Even the lady was by his side, and he probably forgot about the affairs of the capital. ”

"Xia Langjun forgets that no one will forget me, if you can't forget me, you will definitely not forget you, sister, you don't have to guess, if you really want to know Xia Langjun's mind, wouldn't it be simple to go to Zhending County and ask him face to face?" Cao Shujun glanced at Lian Ruohan up and down again, "Lian Niangzi, there is one thing I don't understand, why don't you choose the king, Lu Zhiyue and I have to choose Xia Langjun, how is he better than us?" ”

Lian Ruohan was not in a good mood, but Cao Shujun's words were like a breeze, which instantly made her heart open and dissipate, and she laughed: "Seeing that the king is a dignified prince, the little woman can't climb high." Lu Zhiyue, like Cao Langjun, is playful by nature, asks for immortals, has no ambitions, only Xia Xianzun is dedicated to the country and the people, and has a big husband, who does he choose? But I just chose him, not necessarily to marry him. ”

Cao Shujun rolled his eyes and said very dissatisfiedly: "Where do I have no ambitions? How can Lu Zhiyue compare to me? I am the first handsome young man in the capital. Hmph, even the lady, you are too underestimated, Xia Langjun is just moving, the rest of the things are operated by me, if there is no craftsmanship of my carving master, where is the jade chain and Ruoer? Does Lu Zhiyue know how to make fans? Can you carve jade? What is he capable of other than an empty stomach and a high heart? ”

Lian Ruohan smiled even more happily: "If Lu Langjun listens to your words, he has to fight with you." Although Lu Langjun can't make fans and carve jade, he now has ambitions and is interested in his career. Xia Xianzun has already elected him as the county lord of Zhending, and he also has a good relationship with Ye Muping. ”
