Thirty-eight years of Jiahua in the country.

As the sun sets, the sky gets darker. Zhu Ran sat on the edge of the bed, full of thoughts.

Suddenly, the door was kicked open with a bang. Zhu Ran subconsciously stood up, and when he saw that it was Zhu Heyu, he had to bow down with a smile on his face and say goodbye.

"The concubine invites the prince..."Before he finished speaking, he was blocked by Zhu Heyu's mouth full of alcohol.

Zhu Ran staggered his head and said reluctantly: "The prince is drunk, and the concubine will change your clothes." ”

"Yan'er...... Yan'er... Don't leave me, don't leave ...... I—" said and covered her mouth again.

Zhu Ran forgot about the struggle for a while, and was stunned in place, it is rumored that the prince who is strategizing in the field and not messing up in the love field is so humble at this moment! Yan'er? Could it be Du Yuyan, the daughter of the prime minister of the dynasty?

Just thinking about it, Zhu Heyu threw her on the bed, and the corner of the bed knocked her head, it hurt, and Zhu Ran didn't know if she was bleeding.

Zhu Heyu eagerly took off her clothes, maybe he couldn't use the word off, he was so drunk that he didn't untie the tie around her waist, but tore her clothes directly from the collar.

Zhu Ran knew what was going to happen next, took a deep breath, and turned his reluctance into a bitter smile.

Zhu Heyu pressed her two arms, as if she had used the Force, and there was no pity at all, let alone the least respect.

The pain was intertwined, and Zhu Ran clasped his palms with his fingernails to relieve the pain. But her heart really hurts, she has another man in her heart, and at this moment this cruel thing is cruelly reminding her to accept reality.

This is her first time, breaking all the imagination of a young girl. There was no wedding dress, no groom, no wine, just the pain and humiliation of sharing a bed with a strange man.

The charm dissipated, and the person became a little sober.

"Someone, hold the lamp!" Zhu Heyu shouted outside the house, his tone was not good.

The maid crept in, and two stubby red candles lit up the room. Zhu Ran shrank back into the couch and covered the quilt tightly. Zhu Heyu saw it in his eyes, a little disdainful, picked up the clothes on the ground and put them on.

According to the rules, Zhu Ran should get up and change Zhu Heyu's clothes at this moment. But Zhuran really can't do it, although she is so humble at the moment.

Zhu Heyu glanced at Zhu Ran when he walked out of the door, "This king is drunk and lost his words, you should know what to say and what not to say!" ”

Zhu Ran couldn't see his disdain, he smiled forcefully, but his heart was cold: "Don't worry, the princess understands." ”

"Miss, are you alright?" After Zhu Heyu left, Shui Xin asked worriedly with a crying voice, "First of all, the prince kicked in the door, and the menacing was really scary!" The prince didn't bully the young lady, right? ”

"Nope!" Zhuran's eyes were hot, and a warm current gushed out, she still had someone to care about.

"You... Don't come in, leave me alone. Zhu Ran heard the footsteps gradually approaching the door, and said in a somewhat fast tone. Her arms were covered with handprints left by Zhu Heyu when he pressed her, bruises, and on her body... Embarrassed, how could she let Shui Xin see it.

"Well... Good! Shui Xin withdrew the hand that was about to open the door, "That Shui Xin is guarding the door, and the young lady will call me if she has something." ”

The sky was bright, the room was empty, and her heart was empty. Mother and Lu Zihan are all she has, and now her mother is the only one left, she can't choose to let her mother suffer, so she can only choose to live a life of grievances in the palace.

"Prepare the bath water for me, Shui Xin will go to the side room and prepare my clothes." Zhu Ran said to the outside of the house, still deliberately boiling the water.

Hearing this, the maids hurried in and brought the barrels that had been prepared long ago.

Zhu Ran lies in the water covered with rose petals, and the water temperature is moderate. Ruoyi, who was serving, blushed and didn't dare to look at Zhuran. Zhu Ran knew what she was embarrassed about, the bruises that Zhu Heyu left on her last night.

"Go down, I'll just wash it alone." Zhu Ran said tiredly.

Ruoyi went out, Zhu Ran rubbed his body vigorously, from top to bottom, but the more he was like this, the more disgusting he felt.

The room was full of moisture, curling, damp, Zhuran closed his eyes, immersed the whole person in the water, until he couldn't breathe, he groped for the wall of the barrel, poked his head out, put water in his nose and mouth, and coughed violently.

She just wanted to wake herself up, die, and kill herself, which was too much luxury for her.

Half a month ago

This is the first time Zhu Ran has dressed up so seriously, smeared rouge, painted sand red, and painted his eyebrows, although the eyebrows are a little strange.

Zhu Changjun sent someone to pass the word in advance and asked Zhu Ran Shenshi to wait for him in the study, but at this moment, the time had passed, and Zhu Ran didn't even see a shadow. Zhu Changjun called Zhu Ran to the study to surprise her. Since that incident, Takecho-gun hasn't seen her for a long time. Today, I specially sent someone to dress her up carefully, I don't know what it means, thinking of this, Zhu Ran felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"The prince came to the cold house today, and the lower officials are really disappointed!"

"Zhu Shangshu doesn't have to be polite, everything is based on military affairs."

"The prince is please!"

"Your Excellency, please."

Zhu Ran didn't see anyone in the house, so he heard his voice first. As the door opened, a tall dark blue shirt crashed into her eyes. Just as he was about to look up at his appearance, Zhu Changjun nudged Zhu Ran and said, "Don't hurry up and salute King Ruixin." ”

Is he the new king of Ruixin? I couldn't help but think about it more, and half bowed and saluted, "The courtier Zhuran has seen King Ruixin." ”

"Flat. In this king's second house, Miss Zhu doesn't have to be polite. Zhu Heyu didn't look at Zhu Ran, but looked at the booklet handed over by Zhu Changjun with a focused expression.

"This is the second daughter of Xia Guan!" Zhu Changjun whispered beside Zhu Heyu.

Zhu Heyu raised his head at this time, just as Zhu Ran got up, his eyes were facing each other, Zhu Ran wanted to see the handsome face of the Ruixin King who was rumored to be in the field and brave and wise, but the cold light projected in his eyes couldn't help but make her shudder.

Zhu Ran thought: Why are his eyes so weird, it seems that there are three points of affection, three points of anger, and the rest of the points can't tell what it is.

Zhu Changjun saw that Zhu Heyu's face was as usual, but his body seemed to exude anger, and he wondered if he had guessed his mind wrong.

Zhu Ran didn't know what Zhu Changjun meant at the moment, hesitated for a moment and said: "Presumably, the prince and his father have a government affairs to discuss, and the courtiers are currently retiring." ”

Zhu Heyu was expressionless, and Zhu Changjun waved his hand and motioned for Zhu Ran to go out.

"What does Zhu Shangshu mean?"

The moment the door was closed, the words that had no temperature were getting into Takeran's ears.

Zhu Ran may never have known that the two men she met when she came to the study twice changed the fate of her life. The cause of the past life, the effect of this life, maybe this is fate.

As soon as he walked out of the study, he saw Shui Xin running towards him.

"Why did the young lady come here, the second lady is looking for you!"

"What is Mother looking for me?"

"Miss...... Why is the young lady dressed so beautifully today? Shui Xin rubbed his eyes and asked in disbelief, "I was far away, and when I got closer, I saw that today's young lady is so beautiful." ”

The afternoon sun was shining into Zhu Ran's eyes, Zhu Ran blinked, and asked with a smile: "Is your young lady only beautiful this day!" ”

"No... No, Miss is naturally beautiful every day, but today she is exceptionally beautiful! ”

"Okay, you haven't said what my mother is looking for me?"

Shui Xin pursed her lips and smiled: "Miss won't know if she goes!" All in all, not a bad thing! ”

"Mother, are you looking for a daughter?" Before Zhu Ran entered the house, he smelled the fragrance of pastries. When I got inside, I ran straight to the table.

"Did my mother ask me to eat osmanthus cake?" Zhu Ran took a piece and took a bite.

"How old are you, and you're still so greedy!" Dong Yuqing was bowing his head and embroidering things.

Looking up at Zhu Ran, his face changed suddenly, but he still spoke slowly: "Why are you dressed like this today?" ”

"It was the father who arranged for Li's mother to paint the makeup for his daughter, and also gave her a few clothes." Zhu Ran saw that Dong Yuqing's face became ugly, and hurriedly explained.

"Does Mother think there's anything wrong?"

"Don't draw your eyebrows so heavily in the future, your first curved light eyebrows will be fine. Today's eyebrows are slightly heroic, not suitable for women, Mother Li has always been good at drawing eyebrows, even I feel that today's eyebrows are not suitable for you, but Mother Li doesn't know! ”

Thinking of Zhu Changjun's abnormal arrangement today, and thinking of Zhu Heyu's strange eyes when he looked at him, and his mother's slightly meaningful words, Zhu Ran's heart was a little restless.

Reluctantly stuffed the remaining mouthful of pastry into his mouth, swallowed it and said: "What about the thrush, I have a personal idea, my mother doesn't like today's eyebrows, I'll wash it off!" ”
