As soon as Zhuo Jinxuan entered the capital, he befriended Mu Qianfeng and lived in Mu Qianfeng's mansion. It didn't take long for Bai Shuqin to come, and Zhuo Jinxuan recognized Bai Shuqin at a glance as the girl he was looking for, so he didn't have the slightest defense.

Every time Bai Shuqin came to meet him, Zhuo Jinxuan didn't have any defenses, and always treated him with sincerity, not only that, but his love for Bai Shuqin became deeper with every approach.

It was also at that time that Bai Shuqin knew that Zhuo Jinxuan was proficient in chess, calligraphy and painting, and the two of them played chess, read, and painted together from time to time.

When the two people were in love, Bai Shuqin asked Zhuo Jinxuan to paint a portrait of himself, knowing that Zhuo Jinxuan had painted for others, and selfishly asked Zhuo Jinxuan to only paint a portrait for himself, Zhuo Jinxuan was entangled for a long time, and finally agreed.

Just when Zhuo Jinxuan fell in love for Bai Shuqin, Bai Shuqin gave him a heavy blow. Bai Shuqin asked him to meet him at the old place where the two were dating, and asked him not to take the imperial examination, because the man she loved was going to participate in the imperial examination, to win the champion, and to marry her.

And Bai Shuqin also said his purpose for approaching him, which was nothing more than worrying that Zhuo Jinxuan would win the champion position, and that man and Bai Shuqin loved each other, and he had to marry Bai Shuqin.

Zhuo Jinxuan endured the pain and cut his love, and finally chose to give up. And what he promised Bai Shuqin before, he also did it, even if Bai Shuqin didn't love it, but he loved it.

Looking back now, Zhuo Jinxuan doesn't regret it, at least, he has paid for this relationship, and he has nothing to regret. It's just that Bai Shuqin's approach made him feel a little unworthy.

"Bai Shuqin, even if you and I have never had this bad relationship, we are just strangers, but how can you be ruthless to this extent because of your own love. For him, you deliberately approached me, made me fall in love with you, and persuaded me to give up the imperial examination at a critical juncture, it doesn't matter, I can do it, because this is what I owe you, and I am the one who let me meet you in the first place. But have you ever thought about how you can do it if the person you hurt is not me, but someone else? "Zhuo Jinxuan has always been obsessed with this matter, in a way, the person Bai Shuqin is looking for is him, and he is the one who hurts.

Only then did Bai Shuqin realize how excessive what he had done, he looked at Zhuo Jinxuan with teary eyes, and apologized stupidly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry Jinxuan." It's me who is not good, if it weren't for my obsessive mind, you wouldn't be in prison here, and you should have a bright future in officialdom. Although Bai Shuqin and Zhuo Jinxuan have been together for a long time, she knows very well how erudite Zhuo Jinxuan's talent is and his character is also outstanding, otherwise her younger brother, who has always been eccentric, would not have taken a fancy to Zhuo Jinxuan at a glance, and even wanted to escort Zhuo Jinxuan.

"It was I who made Mu Zeguo lose a talented person." Bai Shuqin really regretted it, if she hadn't listened to that man's words at the beginning, she wouldn't have missed it with Zhuo Jinxuan. "Jinxuan, are you willing to marry me?" After thinking about it, Bai Shuqin struggled in every way, and finally asked, she wanted to marry Zhuo Jinxuan, but she was worried that Zhuo Jinxuan would dislike her.

She has heard about Zhuo Jinxuan's life over the years, and firmly believes that Zhuo Jinxuan has her own heart.

"That wife of yours is already with another man, and since I know that he is not you, I will not be with him again. Jinxuan, as long as you don't dislike me, I'm willing to get back together with you. Bai Shuqin looked at Zhuo Jinxuan expectantly, his gentle and watery eyes flashing with scorching sparks.

Three words and two words are enough for Yun Qing to figure out the ins and outs, listening to Zhuo Jinxuan's confession, it is even more a deep trace on his heart, it turns out that Jin Xuan has been hurt so deeply, and he still doesn't understand Jin Xuan, Yun Qing blames himself at the same time, but also worries that Jin Xuan still has this princess in his heart, and he is with her.

Things have come to this point, and it seems that Zhuo Jinxuan no longer needs them to save him. Fairy Ying vaguely guessed the direction of the matter, pulled the corners of Yunqing's clothes, and wanted to persuade Yunqing to leave, but at this moment Yunqing was unwilling to leave, he wanted to wait here, waiting for Zhuo Jinxuan's attitude.

"Do you remember the one thing I promised you?" Zhuo Jinxuan sat up straight and did not answer Fairy Ying's question directly, which was a disguised explanation of his mind.

Princess Wenluo was confused for a long time before nodding. Zhuo Jinxuan promised her a lot of things, such as his piano sound can only be listened to by her alone, such as loving her alone, such as fulfilling her, such as giving up the imperial examination, such as leaving the capital, such as not appearing in front of her again.

Zhuo Jinxuan agreed to many strange requests of Princess Wenluo, without the slightest hesitation, Princess Wenluo's heart was complicated, and what is still fresh in his memory is that he promised that he would not paint a portrait of the second person.

She still remembers that it was on a particularly sunny afternoon, it was Princess Wenluo who took the initiative to ask Zhuo Jinxuan to go out, and the subordinates of Mu Qianfeng's mansion replied that Yan Gongzi was not there, and went to the gallery, this was the first time that Princess Wenluo knew that Zhuo Jinxuan could paint, so she went quietly, standing at the door of the gallery, she saw Zhuo Jinxuan painting a portrait of a woman, at first Princess Wenluo looked at it with an appreciative attitude, but when she saw that the painting was born in Zhuo Jinxuan's hands, a nameless fire rose in her heart - jealousy. She hated Zhuo Jinxuan for painting portraits of other people, so she rushed in without thinking about it, dragged Zhuo Jinxuan out of it regardless of it, and dragged Zhuo Jinxuan to the place where the two of them often dated.

It was there that Princess Wenluo asked Zhuo Jinxuan to paint a portrait of herself, and asked Zhuo Jinxuan not to paint it for anyone else.

"Do you remember?" Looking at Bai Shuqin's stunned appearance, Zhuo Jinxuan patiently repeated, the matter between them must be understood today.

Since you don't love anymore, it's time to put everything off at this moment.

"Is this life for me alone?" Bai Shuqin trembled and said the guess in her heart, and a bad thought took shape, which made her extremely nervous.

In her heart, she refused to listen to Zhuo Jinxuan's next words, but she understood that they couldn't drag it out like this anymore. Zhuo Jinxuan was determined to make it clear, and she would never give up so well, even if she didn't want to know.

"Hmm." Zhuo Jinxuan nodded coldly, this reunion made Zhuo Jinxuan recognize his inner feelings, he had already looked down on this feeling, and he was no longer entangled in it.

Zhuo Jinxuan is very fortunate that in his limited life, there will be someone who will save him, even if they can't be together, but it doesn't matter, as long as he loves it.

"There is one thing I have to confess to you, and I don't need to hide it from you anymore." violated the oath to Bai Shuqin, "I painted a portrait of a person, and the oath I promised you back then was just over, you should understand what I mean." ”

Bai Shu Qin Mu was stunned. After a long time, he trembled and said, "Who is that person?" How is she? There will be ...... between you" The latter words, Bai Shuqin Lion didn't have the courage to say more.

Over the years, she has always hoped that Zhuo Jinxuan can meet someone he likes and live happily together, because a woman like her is really not worthy of him, and it is not worth his life's wait. But as long as she thinks that Zhuo Jinxuan is in love with someone else, just having someone to accompany Zhuo Jinxuan instead of her, she can't be jealous.

This contradictory thought tormented her deeply, and it was not until this moment that she realized what it meant to be heartbreaking.

"We're not going to be together, you don't have to worry about that." Zhuo Jinxuan rudely interrupted Bai Shuqin's words, in his heart, Bai Shuqin has long become a burden, even if Zhuo Jinxuan himself does not admit it, he can't erase this fact, if it weren't for Bai Shuqin's selfishness, he wouldn't have to suffer from this kind of distorted love kidnapping, if time can be turned back, Zhuo Jinxuan is resolutely unwilling to meet Bai Shuqin, this price is too great.

And behind this price is the harm to the people around you. It's not worth hurting so many people who care about him for the sake of a person. At this moment, for some reason, Zhuo Jinxuan suddenly remembered the aging faces of his parents, and tears flowed in his heart.

It turns out that he will also be resentful.

"Bai Shuqin, do you know? If there's one thing I'll do in this life, it's meeting you. Inexplicably, Zhuo Jinxuan said sadly, "When I met you, I have lived a life of "poverty" and nothing to do every day, not knowing what I can do. Why did I meet you when I was a child, and why did I take your promise, I was so stupid. The voice was poignant, and the words were heartfelt, "Between you and that man, it is your business that has nothing to do with me, forget about the things when I was a child, it will only be a stain on my Zhuo Jinxuan's life." I don't have any other requirements for you, if you still have a little affection, just let my parents go, they are innocent, no matter what crime you want me to confess, I will admit it, I don't care about the stench for 10,000 years, as long as you don't hurt my parents. ”

As a death row inmate, all Zhuo Jinxuan can do is to protect his family as much as possible, he is a man who knows how to minimize the seriousness of the matter.

And Zhuo Jinxuan's words just hurt Bai Shuqin, Bai Shuqin was so humiliated that she could barely raise her head, she had already hurt Zhuo Jinxuan's heart, and she no longer had hope for her, even if the former affection was consumed a little bit.

"Jinxuan, I won't hurt your parents, as long as you don't admit your guilt, I will rush back to explain the whole story to my father and ask him to retry this case." Bai Shuqin hung his head and said.

"A retrial? Bai Shuqin, I understand your kindness, and this is the end of the matter. Don't toss anymore, no matter what you do, it can only end up between us. In order to make Bai Shuqin die, Zhuo Jinxuan took out the painting of him in prison from under the grass, and said to himself, and the voice happened to be heard by Bai Shuqin, "I don't love you anymore, why should you." ”

Bai Shuqin stared at Zhuo Jinxuan's hand, and watched him take out a portrait of someone else, and was even more shocked that the person in the painting was a man.

The man was wearing a white robe, his hair was tied up, the corners of his lips were hooked with a cold and detached smile, his eyes were as black as stars in the sky, brilliant and cold, his cheeks were fair, his contours were distinct, his tall nose was slightly wrinkled, no matter how he looked at it, he was a man.

This made Bai Shuqin instantly think of his biological brother Mu Qianfeng, not that the person in the painting was Mu Qianfeng, but that Zhuo Jinxuan actually liked men, and she had seen Mu Qianfeng and a group of men get together, which made Bai Shuqin unacceptable no matter what.

The man he likes actually likes a man, and his younger brother actually wants to be with a man, which makes Bai Shuqin, who has lived for so many years and has never thought about how to accept this aspect.

The matter of her younger brother has already dealt her a heavy blow, how could she have thought that the person Zhuo Jinxuan likes would also give him a heavy blow. She only thought that Zhuo Jinxuan would fall in love with someone, but she never thought that the gender of the person Zhuo Jinxuan liked was actually unacceptable to her.
