Chapter 17: The Future Husband
Li Lin walked on the street,
As she walked, she thought about what Li Qi had said to her.
When I looked up, I saw Zhao Zhen eating in the restaurant.
Next to him sat two girls who were drinking with him.
Zhao Zhen talked and laughed with them, and teased their faces with his hands from time to time.
Li Lin looked at this scene and felt depressed in his heart.
Remembering what Landauth said again.
She sighed heavily, she really didn't like Zhao Zhen anymore.
"How can you marry him? How can you stand such a frivolous person? Li Lin asked himself.
She remembered the day she stole the VIP card, and she saw the box full of membership cards from Li Qi's drawer.
Not only Chunfeng Tower, but also the beautiful places of the capital, they have almost all been there.
Li Lin thought about it, and turned his head away with anger in his heart.
She came to the abode of the Lance priest.
Randolph was meditating.
"Master, I suspect you were wrong last time." Li Lin said.
Lan Daoshi, who was meditating, opened his eyes slightly and looked at her, and asked, "Why do you say this?" ”
Li Lin said with certainty: "I don't think you can tell me accurately, my future husband who I saw last time must be wrong, and I can't marry him." ”
Landauth stroked his beard and smiled.
"How can this be wrong, everything is arranged by God."
"Can you help me one more time?" Li Lin asked him.
"It's all a heavenly machine, I can't leak it, I opened up to you before because I made you suffer for twenty years because of my gaffes, and I feel ashamed."
Lan Daoshi said faintly.
"Please, Master." Li Lin with sincerity.
This matter really bothered her too much.
Although Zhao Zhen is a high-ranking prince and pampered, it is the dream of women in the world, but she can't tolerate living with a man who is in the twilight of his life.
Daoist Lan thought for a moment, and had to say, "Then I'll help you again!" You should be cautious this time. ”
He said: "Tomorrow at noon, you will stand in front of the corona in Xicheng, and the corona needle will point to noon, and the first man you will see facing east will be your husband, so be sure that it must be noon!" ”
Li Lin looked at him gratefully and asked, "Then what if there was no one at that time?" ”
"Then you take two steps to the east, and in short, the first man you see at that moment is the future husband."
Li Lin remembered these words.
That night, she had insomnia.
He hopes that the people who appear tomorrow, even if they look average, must have a sense of responsibility.
She remembered her fantasies about her future husband many years ago, when she wanted to marry a general, and the two of them would fight side by side on horseback to kill the enemy.
However, at the moment her request is simple, as long as he is single-minded.
The next day.
Li Lin came to Xicheng early.
Walk to the corona that Landau said,
It used to be a bustling part of the city, but then South Street sprung up, and then it gradually became sparse, and occasionally a few people passed by the market.
However, most of the vendors and shops are concentrated on South Street.
She stood quietly in front of the corona, watching the reflection of the hands.
It was still half an hour before noon, but her heart was already tense.
Then it was about her fate, and occasionally some men and women walked behind her, talking about the woman who was staring at the corona in a daze.
One square, two squares...
The reflection is getting closer and closer to the noon scale.
As long as the years passed, Li Lin's heartbeat accelerated.
Li Lin looked at the reflection nervously.
When the shadows are only one tick away and about to overlap.
Suddenly, a voice sounded behind him, "Sister Lin, what are you doing here!" ”
Li Lin's scalp was numb, and when he turned around, he saw that Yuan Shu was looking at him with curious eyes.
Li Lin saw that it was a scale off, and his heart almost jumped out of fright.
He shushed him: "I have something very important, don't talk to me yet." ”
Yuan Shu was originally passing by here, but when he saw her from a distance just now, he thought he had recognized the wrong person, so he walked over in a fog and asked in a low voice, "What's on here?" ”
Li Lin made a gesture: Shhh
Yuanshu shut up.
Li Lin nervously looked at the scale of the corona.
Seconds passed, and the shadow of the corona hand finally stayed at noon.
Li Lin turned to look east, and there was no one else except Yuanshu.
How is this possible?
She asked Yuanshu tremblingly, "Was there anyone else on the way over just now?" ”
"Yes." Yuan Shu pointed in that direction: "Uncle Nine is also over there." ”
"Uncle Nine?"
Then, Li Lin saw Zhao Zhen walking over leisurely, and he appeared with a smile to greet her.
"What a coincidence!"
Li Lin was so frightened that he took a step back.
No way!
It's not true, why is it still him?
She looked at Zhao Zhen's annoying smile.
"Why are you here?" She asked angrily.
Zhao Zhen was puzzled by her question.
"How?"
Without waiting for an answer, Li Lin had already gritted his teeth and ran away.
Behind him, Zhao Zhen and Yuan Shu looked at each other.
"What's wrong with her?"
"I don't know."
Yuanshu circled around the corona, and when he looked closely, he didn't see anything unusual, and scratched his head inexplicably.
At this time, an old lady happened to pass by and said to Yuanshu: "Don't look at it, little official, this corona was hit by a cow a few days ago, and now it is not accurate, it is a scale slower." ”
"Oh!" Yuan Shu replied that he was not interested in this corona.
I'm just curious what Li Lin is doing here.
For the past two days, Li Lin has stuffed himself in his room,
Knowing where her fate was, she was a little depressed.
And Yuan Shu has had an inexplicable revolutionary friendship with her since the last time he went to Chunfeng Tower with Li Lin, and when he heard that Li Lin was sick, he came to visit her in Zheng Guogong's mansion.
Li Lin's room is simply and plainly furnished, not at all like a girl's boudoir.
In her room, there was also a march map made of sand and dirt, and Yuan Shu was suddenly interested.
Look left and right, fiddling with flags on the sand table.
He has never been to the border pass, and he has never even been out of the capital, and he has always been curious about things outside.
Look at the various small flags planted on the sand, and envy Li Lin's former battlefield life.
After playing for a long time, I suddenly remembered that I was here to visit the patient.
Li Lin kept wandering and ignored Yuan Shu.
"Sister, what were you doing in front of the corona that day?" Yuanshu couldn't help but ask.
Hearing the corona, Li Lin's mood sank a little more.
"It's fine."
Yuanshu saw her depression.
"If there's anything you're struggling with, I can help you." Yuan Shu said righteously.
After all, they are now comrades-in-arms.
Li Lin was stunned for a while and asked him, "Do you believe in marriage?" ”
"Huh?" Yuanshu was stunned for a moment and looked at her puzzled.
At his age, he hadn't thought about it.
"I'm going to ...... may marry Zhao Zhen. Li Lin said.
"Ah???h
Yuanshu's eyes widened.
"Why? Do you like him? ”
Li Lin shook his head, "I don't like it." ”
"Then how can you be so sure?" Yuan Shu was puzzled.
But after thinking about it, isn't this exactly what Zheng Guogong and the others wanted?
"Is Zheng Guogong going to force you to marry Zhao Zhen?" Yuan Shu asked.
Li Lin's face was very ugly, "It's probably fate......
"Nonsense!"
Yuan Shuyi said solemnly: "Where is the fate of the place, if you don't like it, you don't like it." ”
He had never believed in these things.
