Suzaku Street. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As one of the most famous street markets in Kyoto, its dynamics are also remembered by countless melon-eating people, and as the gathering center of Nankei Quan Chen, every day here is full of the eyes of countless people.

Not long ago, Zhao Wu, who bought the ownerless painting from Zhang Hua, who also had a low moral standard, and he who made the people who watched it refresh, returned from the street market with a happy face.

"Little grandpa, you're back."

When the guards outside the gate of Zhao Mansion saw Zhao Wu coming back, they immediately said respectfully.

As the Fuzhong, the current Duke Zhao Yunhai, the son of General Zhao, and the return of Zhao Wu also immediately shocked everyone.

I have to say that it is really important for people to learn to reincarnate, people like Zhao Wu who are afraid of others, and people who are worried about ghosts, don't know what good things they did in their previous life, and they have become the son of a prince in this life.

Every day, I was idle, waiting for my father to kick his legs, and then inherit his title, and since then the scenery has been infinite, there are no big ups and downs in life, and it is calm like a pool of stagnant water.

But although it is so stable, it also reveals a bit of helplessness.

Because the lives of people like them have been set, and every step and every footprint has become a fixed number, and it cannot be changed.

Whether it is joy or sorrow, I am afraid only they know it.

"Young Master, you're back." After the housekeeper saw Zhao Wu come back, he was like a translator in front of the devil, and said with a smile.

"Well, nothing happened in the house during the time I was out, right?" Zhao Wu said wholeheartedly, and after the housekeeper heard about it, he also said with a smile: "What else can happen if there is a master sitting in the mansion?" However, during the time you left, young master, the young lady came back. ”

"Oh? My runaway sister is back? Zhao Wu was a little surprised at this time, that sister Zhao Xue, who ran away from home and was determined to make a name for herself, would actually come back by herself?

"Are you sure she came back on her own? Didn't someone hold her back with a knife in her neck? Zhao Wu said with a mouthful of mud.

The housekeeper's angry face twitched. Can you speak? That's your sister, how do you speak? If someone really puts a knife on her neck, do you still have to clap your hands!

"No, the young lady came back alone."

"Weird then? Isn't that in line with my sister's character? Zhao Wu had a stupid and cute expression, but his face was too ugly, not cute, only ugly.

Even if the housekeeper has been in the mansion for more than ten years, he is almost a person who has watched Zhao Wu grow up, and after he saw Zhao Wu's expression now, the housekeeper was temporarily blind.

"My dad lost his temper, how is it now?"

"Miss has been grounded, the master just finished scolding Miss, and the mood is probably not very good."

"Forget it, don't go back, my dad is losing his temper, and seeing me may anger him again." Saying that, Zhao Wu shook his head and changed his brain, and actually retreated again, as if there was a similar existence in this family.

"Young master, where are you going if you don't go back?"

"Don't worry so much, anyway, you didn't come back to me, if you dare to tell my father, believe it or not, I'll come back and beat you to death!"

Zhao Wu grinned and put pressure on the housekeeper, and just now, the housekeeper who was temporarily selectively blind now seemed to be really blind.

His eyes were blank, what was in his mouth, and he walked back as if no one was around, Zhao Wu smiled with relief, and then glared at the guards outside the mansion, his eyes were full of fierce light.

The guards were not stupid, they immediately turned their heads, and never glanced at Zhao Wu, not only meeting Zhao Wu's requirements, but also not letting their eyes be harmed, yes, young master, I praise you for this request.

Zhao Wu was happy, and then he didn't know where he went with a figure-eight step, but before he could leave a few steps, Zhao Wu suddenly heard a plop not far away.

Zhao Wu was stunned for a moment, and then hurried away, but after seeing a shadow, Zhao Wu hurriedly ran over and pulled her and said, "Stinky girl, weren't you grounded by your father just now?" How dare you run out! ”

Zhao Xue, who had just come out of the wall, was startled, and then after seeing this face that she had been looking at for more than ten years, she pulled her brother with a flattering face, and Zhao Wu's arm said, "Big brother, it's a coincidence to meet you here." ”

"What a fart! I met my sister around my house.,What's the coincidence?,By the way, you haven't answered yet! ”

Zhao Xue's face darkened, and then immediately let go of Zhao Wu's thick arm, and said stupidly: "It's too stuffy at home, I'll go out for a walk while my father is taking a nap." ”

Walking? Zhao Wu glanced up, and the wall of his house was more than two meters high, and he also felt that his IQ had been insulted.

Someone comes out and doesn't go through the front door. Actually over the wall? Is this a walk?

"Tell me honestly, are you going to leave again?"

Zhao Xue's face changed, and she quickly put on a smile and said, "How is it possible, I just came back." ”

"What if you just came back, two years ago, after you ran away from home and were caught by your father himself, didn't you run away the next day?"

Mentioning the past, this made Zhao Xue's face a little ugly, looking at his brother who got along with him day and night, Zhao Xue was silent for a while and said: "Kyoto is too stuffy, I don't want to stay here." ”

"And where do you want to go?" Zhao Wu said in a muffled voice, and after Zhao Xue heard this, a strange look suddenly appeared on his face: "I want to go to the west to see the endless desert, go to the northern grassland to ride a horse and gallop, and go to the sea, I want to see what the end of the sea looks like!" ”

Zhao Xue is like a bird imprisoned in a cage, wanting to regain his freedom, although Kyoto is very big, but for Zhao Xue who has all over the world in his heart, Kyoto is just a bigger cage.

Everyone has their own dream in their hearts, and this dream may change over time, but now Zhao Xue is just going out to see more.

Look at the end of the mountain, on the other side of the sea, what is it.

But Zhao Wu knew that going out to see this was only the reason why part of his sister had been running away from home.

And the most important reason is that she is running away, escaping from growing up, and escaping from the upcoming marriage in a year.

"Next year, you'll be sixteen." Zhao Wu paused and said, and when he said this, the excitement that was still on Zhao Xue's face just now also disappeared suddenly, as if it had never appeared.

Stunned in place, at this moment Zhao Xue did not have the difficulties and willfulness of the past, she was like a little girl who had lost everything and had nothing, she only knew how to face the ending that had been set in her own way.

After Zhao Wu saw that his sister was depressed, he also sighed silently in his heart.

Now the woman is going to marry at the age of sixteen, from an innocent girl to a well-run lady. It's also quite cruel to make this transformation in a flash!

Ordinary women may feel lucky because they are about to meet someone they like to become their husband, but for the children of families like Zhao Wu and Zhao Xue, their marriages are all in the service of politics and interests.

Zhao Wu is a little better, as the son of the Duke of Guo, he may be able to include the person he likes in the mansion in the future as a concubine.

But like Zhao Xue, and in this era when women have no status, their happiness is directly equivalent to nothing, and as for fighting for it with their own hands, it is even more of a joke.

Even the high-ranking princess has been sent to various places one by one by His Majesty like a gift for the New Year, what kind of face and ability does a little daughter of the prince have to fight?

At the same time, Zhao Xue's situation is even more difficult, who can marry her, then this means that there is a Guogong as a backer behind her, and a father-in-law of Guogong, which not only makes her face bright, but also has a greater role.

For example, in the court, say a few good words in front of Your Majesty, especially, Your Majesty has not yet canonized the position of the East Palace, and countless princes who want to get that position are even more crazy about the recruitment of ministers.

When Zhao Xue was thirteen years old, a prince came to the door to talk about it, but Zhao Yunhai used his age as an excuse to shirk it one by one.

But this excuse may not be used next year, Zhao Yunhai can guess that as long as his daughter celebrates her sixteenth birthday, then many princes will ask His Majesty today!

At that time, I am afraid that my daughter is really going to enter misfortune.

He knew that Zhao Yunhai had always known that when his daughter got married, he would undoubtedly push her into the fire pit, but he had no choice. Zhao Yunhai really has no choice.

Whether a family is strong or not depends on the ability of the contemporary head of the family.

Now that the Zhao family has their own sitting, then everything is fine. But when he dies and his son Zhao Wu achieves this position, it is really hard to say whether the Zhao family can be as beautiful as it is today.

Zhao Wu was born to not like to participate in political affairs, and it was okay to lead troops to fight, but if he played yin with the old fritters in the court later, it was nothing more than hitting a stone with an egg!

If you don't give your son and find a strong backer, then the Zhao family will definitely disappear from everyone after three generations and disappear among the Nanqing magnates.

And this backer is his future son-in-law, that is, Zhao Xue's husband, and this candidate must be a prince.

Because it is possible for the prince to become the emperor, as long as Zhao Yunhai can help his future son-in-law and become the next majesty, then the Zhao family is the relative of the heavenly family, and it will not decay within a hundred years!

But this has to be exchanged for the happiness of his daughter, the family, or the happiness of his daughter? Zhao Yunhai chose the former, which was out of consideration that he was the head of the Zhao family.

As a father, he was blindly indulgent to Zhao Xue, indulging her to run away from home, and even after Zhao Xue was caught by himself and escaped again, he didn't punish her too much. Zhao Yunhai is making up for Zhao Xue, but his way is so ordinary, so ordinary that Zhao Xue doesn't understand it, and he doesn't understand it at all......
