Chu Ruojun sat in front of the bronze mirror, letting Bai Zhi decorate her carefully, and at this moment, a knock sounded, and the crisp three sounds shook Chu Ruojun's heart.

It was Shen Yi who came, he came to take himself to see Concubine Liu, and Chu Ruojun hurriedly opened the door.

He was not Shen Yi, there was a strange man outside the door.

He looked at Chu Ruojun, his eyes were full of anxious looks, "Miss Chu, it's not okay to take care of things, he has something to say to you, you can follow me and go quickly." ”

Chu Ruojun was shocked: "Steward? What is the steward? ”

"It's the steward of the theater, he's old, he thinks it's no longer good, I have something to say to you, I want to take you there."

Chu Ruojun felt a chill in her heart when she heard this.

Since Ye Shuwan had an accident, Chu Ruojun has never set foot in the theater again, only a few months have passed, but he didn't expect that he would drive to the west.

What can the steward say to himself, it must be about Ye Shuwan.

Chu Ruojun was so anxious that she ran out quickly and led a horse, the sooner the better!

It's too late to leave a word, if Daddy and Grandma ask where they are, and Bai Zhi can explain, they must be able to understand that she is so flustered, she is racing against time with death.

What can't be abandoned, if you want to go where you should go, all of them are left behind, Chu Ruojun promised in her heart that when the matter is over, she will definitely be his princess with peace of mind.

But not now.

The people in the theater were already waiting outside the door, Chu Ruojun jumped off the horse, and suddenly pushed open the door of the steward under their guidance all the way.

"Stewardship." Chu Ruojun took a light breath and slowed down her voice, "....... I'm coming. ”

The steward was lying on the recliner and glanced at her sideways, his eyes changed thousands of expressions in an instant, and Chu Ruojun was a little puzzled, why was it so complicated.

His whole body was in a trance, and he wanted to raise his hand but couldn't.

Chu Ruojun's heart sank, and she hurriedly stepped forward to his side.

The steward turned his head, smiled at her reluctantly, and whispered his name: "Wanwan." ”

Chu Ruojun carefully held on to the recliner, he was so confused that he couldn't even recognize himself.

The steward stared at her side face and sighed, "You've lost weight." ”

In the early morning sunlight that poured in from the window, he looked at the dress she was wearing, and added, "It's so cold, and you wear too little." ”

Chu Ruojun silently bowed her head.

In the warm breeze of March, the steward looked at her lovingly: "I'm tired, I'm going to another place, this theater, soon there will be a new steward, a new corner, we will all be forgotten." ”

"There's one thing I can't let go." The steward said hoarsely, "Originally, I didn't want to tell you, for fear that you would cause a big disaster on the spur of the moment and hurt you at that time, but I was aggrieved in my heart and brought under the coffin board, unwillingly." ”

Chu Ruojun nodded, "Just say it, I'll hold it." ”

"In recent days, I often dream of Wanwan, and I dream that she is wearing a dress and singing to me with her water sleeves." The steward muttered softly, "She's blaming me, why didn't she stand up, she's blaming me, why didn't she avenge her, she's blaming me, why didn't she tell anyone." ”

"Steward, what's going on?" Chu Ruojun was a little anxious, but he was still a little gentler with the way he was now, and said softly, "The reason why Sister Wanwan committed suicide was not because she couldn't think about it after being defiled?" ”

The steward let out a long sigh and shook his head.

"No, that's not the case...... The reason why she committed suicide ...... "The steward closed his eyes, and for a long time did not make a sound, and the room was as silent as death."

Chu Ruojun was shocked, afraid that he didn't open his eyes and left with unspoken words.

With some trembling fingers, she reached out and probed his snort.

"That day, I actually saw it." The steward suddenly spoke, "That day, the county lord of Nan'an came to her and stuffed a pill in her mouth, it is said that if there is no antidote to that medicine, it will die of pain, like thousands of ants gnawing on the flesh and skin, at that time, in order to get the antidote, even his own parents can do it, the county lord can't help you, so he starts with Wanwan, she wants to control Wanwan and attack you." ”

His voice was fluttering, and tears slipped from the corners of his eyes, "That day, I saw it, but I didn't stand up." ”

In the warm March, Chu Ruojun instantly fell into an ice cave.

The cold air came from all directions, and she shivered from the cold without giving her any chance to prepare.

She was stunned for a moment, and repeated in a low voice: "Lord Nan'an...... It's the ....... of Nan'an County."

"I ......" the steward didn't know how many times he sighed, "I'm timid and afraid, I don't dare to offend the county lord, Ruojun, you must be blaming me, blaming me for why I didn't stand up in time, but you don't know, this world is the world of the Shao family, I'm just a theater manager who is looked down upon, you are a young lady, you won't understand our sadness." ”

"I'm just alive, and I'm doing my best."

Chu Ruojun was silent, her throat sour.

"This is what I picked up on the ground." The steward slowly opened his hand, and a golden ring was placed in the palm of his hand, "This should have fallen when she forcibly stuffed the medicine into Wanwan's mouth, I inquired, it is not something that ordinary young ladies can wear, and who else will it be if it is not hers." ”

Chu Ruojun's pupils constricted, and she reached out and pinched the ring, which shone in the sunlight, so brilliant that it made people desperate.

He was still talking, as if tirelessly, that he used to be greedy for life and afraid of death, but when it was really time to die, he found that it was not so terrible.

He said: Ruojun, I want you not to seek revenge, you will definitely not listen, so I want you to be careful.

Under the golden eyes, Chu Ruojun watched as the steward slowly closed his eyes, and did not make a single sound.

Chu Ruojun smiled bitterly.

She wanted to ask why, but there were many things that were unanswered.

When the steward went, the people in the theater knelt down and howled to let the steward go into the ground.

Chu Ruojun stared at them silently, her heart ached terribly, that kind of pain, as if the wound that had healed had opened again, spurted blood suddenly, and caught people off guard.

Bai Zhi finally waited for her young lady to come back, hurried over, and saw Chu Ruojun's cold face.

She hesitantly called her, "Miss......"

Chu Ruojun looked at her, her voice was a little curious, but she was talking to herself: "Sister Wanwan, I have never owed her anything." ”

"Huh?" Bai Zhi was puzzled, took Chu Ruojun's hand and went back to the house and said slowly, but Chu Ruojun didn't want to speak, she thought of how Zhao Sangongzi was heartbroken and how heartbroken she was in that winter, when Sister Wanwan knelt in front of her brother's grave.......

Chu Ruojun raised her eyes, her eyes were as cold as ice, and she pondered for a moment before she said slowly: "What's there, come at me." ”

Bai Zhi said with concern: "Miss, don't be impulsive, the steward hasn't told you, and I'm afraid that you will get into trouble on the spur of the moment." ”

"yes, I know." Chu Ruojun picked up the hot tea and drank it all, obviously drinking tea, but with the heroism of drinking.

Seeing her stand up, Bai Zhi couldn't help asking, "Miss, where are you going?" ”

"Go see the lord of Nan'an."

Bai Zhi's eyes couldn't help jumping, and she couldn't restrain herself anymore and called out, "Miss, you can't go!" ”

"If you don't go, it won't be me Chu Ruojun." Chu Ruojun sneered like ice, "I can't help her now, but I want her to know that what she did is not unknown to anyone, don't want to harm people's lives and still be free, I want her to know that I am always thinking about her life, but unfortunately she hurt the wrong person." It would have been fine if I hadn't known, but now that I know, it's impossible for me to swallow my anger! ”

"Miss, if you do this, she will poison you even more."

Chu Ruojun knew her good intentions, and her tone was calm, "She has already poisoned me, I don't believe that the last official ship incident was not from her and the Queen Mother, since God refuses to accept me, it means that I haven't come yet." ”

"The matter of the official ship has always been investigated by Young Marshal Lin, and he must have clues." Bai Zhi sighed and said, "If Miss wants to do something, you might as well discuss it with Young Marshal Lin first, don't be impulsive, don't go your own way." ”

Chu Ruojun didn't think much about it, and smiled at her, "Yes, why didn't I think about it." ”

As soon as I arrived at the courtyard, I met the old lady, and when the old lady heard that she was going to find Lin Changtian, she hurriedly waved her hand, "No, you can't go." ”

"Why?"

"Because you are not as good as before, since you promised Shen Yi, you must treat him exclusively. You know what Lin Changtian thinks about you, and if you do this, it will only make Lin Changtian even more uncomfortable, obviously you can't give him anything, but you still have to use his feelings. The old lady sighed abruptly: "Ruojun, you can't do this kind of thing of stepping on two boats. ”

Chu Ruojun bit her lip, "But, he's my brother, can't I find my brother for something?" ”

The old lady sighed helplessly, "Ruojun, he is not your own brother after all, right." ”

She frowned, "That's what Grandma said." ”

He is talented in the world, Wen Taowu is strategic, all of them are heroes, what many women think, only Chu Ruojun regards him as his brother, no matter how he collides, no sparks can be sparked.

However, she was not without guilt in her heart, and when he insisted on taking away his handkerchief and showing his heart to her, it was clear that they would never go back to the way they were.

"I'm not going to look for him, grandma don't worry, I'll go out to breathe."

The old lady smiled at her kindly, as if she was greatly relieved, "Go ahead, after all, there won't be much chance to go out in the future." ”

In the future, I will be like other women, husband and child, considerate husband.

Moreover, I have to be with I don't know how many women, the side concubines, the concubines, and the concubines, all of them are surrounded by a man.
