At noon, a cold wind blows, even if you sit in the house, it will be unbearable, and its cold is like a resentful woman, silently, silently looking at you with that resentful eye.

Jiang Qinghuan walked barefoot on the bluestone road for most of the day.

Shen Xiu was wrapped in a pure white jacket, and he still hadn't eaten the water, and he was already a little shaky when he walked.

But if he didn't coax Shen Xiu out, Jiang Qinghuan wouldn't go back to the house, wouldn't wear shoes, and there was a stubbornness that ordinary people couldn't understand. Including Shen Xiu, he didn't understand what Jiang Qinghuan was doing.

The prefect of Gangneung, surnamed Jiang, was also a person with a pivotal position in the imperial court when he was young, and it is said that he also entered the Hanlin Dynasty. It's just that now he is old and powerless in the officialdom, so he retired to Jiangling. and did not marry a wife and have children at the peak of his youth, so he collected a group of helpless and neat orphans in the troubled times in Gangneung as his own children.

When the age is right, give a dowry so that they can marry a wife and have children, or marry a family.

Jiang Qinghuan is different, what kind of difference it is, Shen Xiu can't say why. Xu is the prefect of Jiangling is particularly favored to Jiang Qinghuan, and Xu is Jiang Qinghuan's maverick character.

Every time Shen Xiu closed the door in indignation, he couldn't resist Jiang Qinghuan's stubbornness.

Shen Xiu looked at Jiang Qinghuan's proud back, and couldn't help but secretly think, the master in the temple often said that all living beings are equal, but it is clear that everyone is destined to be unequal at all.

In the ups and downs, Shen Xiu woke up in the breeze, lifted the curtain, and looked at the gloomy sky outside. That kind of coldness is very like every year in Gangneung.

After the deadline, Shen Xiu wanted to escape from the imperial capital, escape from the control of the Shen family, and escape from Xiao Rou's protection and secret surveillance.

In the dark night, Shen Xiu had been scared into a cold sweat many times by nightmares, in which Jiang Qinghuan's eyes were bleeding, and he reached out to her neck, as if he was crazy and asked Shen Xiu why he wanted to hurt her.

There are also countless people who can't see the strange or familiar faces killed by Shen Xiang to ask for an explanation from themselves.

Shen Xiu is actually afraid of blood, the dark, many things, and unknown people and things ahead.

But all that was waiting for her in front of her was a dazzling, red wedding dress.

That dress embroidered with the sun, moon, mountains and rivers, as the situation in the court became more and more distinct, the Shen family seemed to be eager to let Shen Xiu wear it, change his body, and take back what belonged to the Shen family.

On the night when the moon and stars were scarce, Shen Xiu returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Shen Xiang sat on the hall with a gloomy face, Shen Xiu glanced at it timidly, and then took a step back quietly with his hands behind his back.

Without any punishment, Shen Xiang hummed lightly, looked at Shen Xiu quietly, and seemed to pass through Shen Xiu, seeing Shen Xiu's past, present and future.

Shen Xiu lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything, plopped and knelt on the ground.

Shen Xiang didn't say anything, she didn't dare to ask. Even now, she doesn't know who to believe. Is it the face that Shen Xiu saw in front of him, or the other face that others told Shen Xiu behind him.

Shen Xiang personally entered the palace, and with the identity of the prime minister, he went straight to the emperor's dormitory to ask for a marriage, and the marriage date was divided by Si Tianjian and set on the third day of the next month.

Shen Xiu received the decree on the second day, and was hit into a little delirious. Half a ring, and after the old man in the palace called to get up a few times, she staggered to her feet.

The scholar took out a pen and paper and helped Shen Xiu back to his room.

The lights and candles in the room were bright, and after Shen Xiang returned home, he looked at Shen Xiu with complicated eyes, and coaxed her with a smile: "Ziyuan, you can write what I say on this paper." ”

Shen Xiu obediently took the pen and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't. She was silent, quietly clenched her sleeves, she was very sure that Shen Xiang couldn't see anything in her ignorant pupils, she imitated it very well, she would hook the corners of her mouth as usual, make a coquette, and then complain twice, doing some senseless struggles to make people feel convinced of her ignorance.

After a long time, Shen Xiang patted Shen Xiu's head, and the smile on his lips deepened.

Shen Xiang put the letter written by Shen Xiu in his sleeve, walked towards the door with satisfaction, thought about it, looked back at Shen Xiu with a smile, and said, "Don't be careful." ”

After Shen Xiang left, Shen Xiu held his chin with both hands and looked at the heavy sky outside boredly. Unexpectedly, I found that the house was brightly lit, and the shaking firelight reflected the window paper in golden red, half ringing, and a figure clumsily climbed through the window.

Shen Xiu looked at Shen Yi who was limping over, incredulous, "You? ”

Shen Yi looked at Shen Xiu with a smile: "You look back and take a closer look, you were arrested just a little longer than you walked, you have no chance of doing anything, you will definitely never be able to get out after you come back this time, but I was killed by you and knelt on the offering hall for a day and a night." If you don't make a lot of trouble, I'm afraid I won't be able to get back, but after you left, something really happened, and if you can leave completely, that's a good thing. It's a pity that you came back, so you can be calm and get married. ”

So although he usually talks a lot, he doesn't look at Shen Xiu so seriously as this time, and he doesn't breathe and says so much.

Shen Xiu sat up slowly, and under Shen Yi's gaze, he clenched a willow leaf in his hand, and looked at the book on the case, and the ink marks on the book actually dispersed little by little.

"Brother—my dream, it's time to wake up." Shen Xiu's expression was in a trance for a moment, and he said word by word, "I heard that not long after I left, the Shen Mansion was surrounded by heavy soldiers, and it was like an iron bucket. ”

Shen Xiu said, waved his hand, looked around, and held the jade pendant on his waist with his hand, "What happened, can you tell me?" ”

Shen Yi's mind was dizzy for a while, his vision was blurred by blood, and Shen Xiu's voice became farther and closer, for a long time, Shen Yi's eyes seemed to be much clearer, pulled the corners of his mouth, and smiled as usual: "It's okay, the child thinks so much." ”

Shen Xiuqiang opened his eyes and suddenly shouted: "Brother, after I came back, I used to think that the imperial capital Haiyan Heqing was clear. ”

Shen Xiu's eyes struggled, waiting for Shen Yi's explanation, and the face facing each other was blurry and clear in front of her eyes.

Shen Yi actually always wanted to take Shen Xiu away and take him out of the imperial capital, and the farther he went, the better.

However, Shen Xiu is a member of the Shen family, so he must put the interests of the family first. Shen Xiu likes Gu San, Gu San's departure from the emperor is an opportunity, Shen Xiu will chase after him without hesitation, Shen Yi thought, maybe when Shen Xiu comes back, those turmoil will probably subside.

took advantage of the wonderful coincidence of Gu San's departure, made up a flawless lie, and spread a fake letter, making Shen Xiu believe that everything had not changed, and she was still clothed and fed, with nothing to worry about.

Under the level of singing and dancing, there are enemy countries eyeing each other outside, and there are disputes between various forces inside. However, Shen Yi didn't want Shen Xiu to understand.
