Chapter Ninety-Eight: Staying Around
Leaving Helan Minyue's mansion and walking on the streets at night with the breeze, Li Hong's thoughts were very confused. What Helan Minyue said tonight touched him a lot. Actually, what Helan Minyue said is not wrong, it is true that the current life may not be what she likes, and all this she gets now may not be what she wants. But these things that other women could not obtain in their lifetime, she got them so easily. If you want to say it's unfair, how unfair is it to other women who want to live like this? And who should they tell about their unfairness?
Therefore, there is no unfairness in this world, and the real unfairness is the real fairness in the eyes of the world.
Thinking like this, Li Hong unconsciously walked to Yanshoufang. From a distance, he saw that the lights of the green onion noodle restaurant were still on, he hesitated on the horse, but jumped off the horse and came to the door of the green onion noodle restaurant.
"Knock-" He knocked lightly a few times, and the door opened, and then Zhou Juan's tired face was revealed.
These eyes were a little red, and they stayed up all night, but these eyes full of sleepiness instantly lit up when they saw Li Hong, just like the stars in the sky, glowing with brilliance.
When Zhou Juan saw Li Hong at the door, she asked excitedly and worriedly, "Why are you here?" β
"I was passing by here, and I happened to see that the lights of the noodle shop were still on, so I wanted to come and tell you that I should rest early." Li Hong looked at Zhou Juan and said lovingly, "Girl, you can only be beautiful when you go to bed early and get up late, and you don't have to be too tired." β
"It's okay, you can rest in half an hour, you can come in and sit." Zhou Juan turned sideways and said to Li Hong. Li Hong hesitated for a moment, but still refused, "It's not early, I'm going back, so I won't go in and sit, you can rest early after you finish your work, don't be too tired." β
"yes, I know." Zhou Juan's heart is sweet, a big man runs to his door in the middle of the night, just to persuade himself to go to bed early, this is unbelievable to anyone, because this is not scientific, but Zhou Juan feels that it is very appropriate to put it on Li Hong, because she knows that this man loves her, so she will make such a stupid move.
"Then I'll go." Li Hong said, and turned to leave.
"Hong-" Suddenly, Zhou Juan opened her mouth and shouted. This is the first time she has called Li Hong like that.
"Are you okay?" Li Hong turned around and asked.
"It's fine." Zhou Juan said, "Pay attention to safety on the road. β
"I know." Li Hong replied and strode away. Zhou Juan watched Li Hong's figure disappear from her sight, and she reluctantly closed the door. As soon as she turned around, she saw her younger brother Zhou Xing looking at her with a frightened expression.
"What's wrong with you?" Zhou Juanqiao's face was slightly red, and she didn't dare to look at Zhou Xing.
Because Li Hong appeared here, Zhou Xing stammered when he spoke, "No, it's nothing, was it Tai, Li, Langjun just now?" β
Zhou Juan didn't dare to tell Zhou Xing about Li Hong anymore, for fear that Zhou Xing would find out that she liked Li Hong, so she urged, "He just left, you can go and rest if you have nothing to do, and you will go to the yamen tomorrow." β
Because of Li Hong, Zhou Xing found a clerical job in the prison of Chang'an County, although the work was a little harder, he may come into contact with Xing Prison, which made Zhou Xing very happy, he is now in the prison all day except for going home at night, either reading books or fiddling with torture instruments.
Although he is young, how can Zhou Juan's demeanor and expression hide from him?
However, his sister likes His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to be interested in his sister, which is a good thing for Zhou Xing. Therefore, when he saw that his sister's face was red, he did not ask anything more, but went into the house to sleep.
β¦β¦
Back in the Cheng'en Palace, Li Hong found that Zhao Hongskirt and Princess Gesang had not rested, Zhao Hongskirt was practicing, and Princess Gesang was sitting aside and listening to her play the piano. Seeing Li Hong walk in, the two of them hurriedly got up and saluted. With her previous misjudgment, the relationship between Princess Gesang and Li Hong was a little awkward, and it was not as natural as before.
"Your Highness, you have drunk, the slave will go and serve you a bowl of sobering soup now." Zhao Hongskirt said, and was about to turn around and leave.
"No need." Li Hong called out to her, "You continue to play the piano, I just want to listen to it for a while." β
"No!" Zhao Hongskirt bowed down to receive the order, and sat down in front of the guzheng again and began to play the tune.
Zhao Hongskirt played a new tune, which was specially written by Li Hong, called "Liang Zhu", Zhao Hongskirt liked this title very much, and liked this piece even more, the music was not only beautiful, but also touching. And she also heard the prince say in a few words that this song is about a pair of infatuated men and women. Many times, when Zhao Hongskirt is practicing this song, she will think, what is an infatuated man and a woman? I like His Royal Highness the Prince, is this considered an infatuated man and a woman?
"Your Highness, you seem to have something on your mind today?" Princess Gesang walked up to Li Hong and asked.
"There are no worries, only happy events." Li Hong said lightly.
"Happy event?" Princess Gesang asked puzzled.
"Lonely princess, you are also tired, so go back to rest early." After Li Hong finished speaking, he closed his eyes and quietly listened to the music played by Zhao Hongskirt. Princess Gesang saw that the prince didn't treat her very well, thought about it, and before the words came to her lips, she sighed slightly and left.
"Zhao Hongskirt, do you know what love is?" Li Hong asked suddenly.
Zhengββ
The guzheng made a discordant note, and Zhao Hongwei was a little flustered, not knowing why His Highness suddenly asked like this, and was stunned for a while. After a long time, she timidly replied, "Back to Your Highness, the slave doesn't know." β
"Lone doesn't know." Li Hong laughed at himself, "But sometimes, Lone is also thinking about finding a woman to wander the world with him, and die in the place where the spring flowers bloom facing the ancient temple." It's actually a good lifeβ"
"Your Highness-" Zhao Hongwei was frightened, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't go crazy, right? Otherwise, how could such a thing be said?
Just when Zhao Hongskirt guessed Li Hong's thoughts, Li Hong said again, "But sometimes I think that as long as this world has not reached the point where it is heartless and outrageous, everyone needs to carry a big or small sky, because there are always people who need to live a stable life under this sky." β
When Li Hong said this, he thought of Zhou Juan, who looked tired when he opened the door at the scallion noodle restaurant tonight. sighed, and said to Zhao Hongskirt, "In the future, you will have Zhao Hongskirt, don't call yourself a maid anymore." β
"Yes." Zhao Hongskirt replied in a low voice.
After Li Hong said this, he got up and left.
What's wrong with the servant, the handmaid is not a human being? A noblewoman, isn't it the same every night to be brutalized by her man?
