When Izumi returned to Yanlan City, it was already the beginning of April, and as soon as she arrived in Fangzhou, the secret guard sent news from Beixuan: Emperor Shengrui Chen Xuan died of illness, and because he had no heir, he was passed on to his righteous brother Chen Lang.

Even if he is a romantic figure through the ages, he has made great achievements in front of him, and he cannot escape life, old age, sickness and death in the world. Thinking of Luan's long-cherished loss of his beloved, and then thinking about himself, Chuxiu is also very sentimental.

She originally thought that King Mu asked her to leave Jingzhou in order to suppress the Qingming clan and its cronies. As soon as he arrived in Yanlan City, King Mu also hurried back, and when asked about the reason, he heard that Concubine Luan was seriously ill in his house.

Izumi understood that it was only true that Luan Su was seriously ill and that it was true that he left, so King Mu was desperate to let go of the situation in Jingzhou and rushed back to say goodbye to her......

After leaving Yunfu for half a year, every grass and tree is still the same, just like the real owner of this mansion, Mrs. Xie, who has been unfading and full of spirit for many years. Obviously, Mrs. Tai had heard about Yun Xian and Luan Qing's marriage, and she had not had a good face since she came back, but she did not reprimand her much.

Izumi knew that she was at the expense of this matter first, and she didn't dare to say much, so she only buried herself in her duty and began to prepare for the marriage of the second lady Yun Muge. According to the discussion of the Yun and Ye families, it was decided to get married in the autumn.

Everything in Yunfu seems to be very calm, and it is as orderly as before. The biggest change is the son of the world, Yun Cheng, who has not seen him for half a year, he has grown taller, and now he is much taller than Xiu.

"It looks like a man." Although Yun Cheng is only twelve or thirteen years old and childish, his face is becoming more and more similar to Yun Ci, clear as jade, outstanding as the moon, and his temperament is unusual. The existence of this child seems to remind her all the time who is the only lovesick in her life, and who she is loyal to.

Thinking about it, Izuku couldn't help but feel gloomy for a while. Yun Cheng didn't see her strange appearance, and enthusiastically talked about what he had learned and seen in the past six months, and finally did not forget to mention the credit of Qianyun: "Aunt Qianyun took care of the child very well, mother, you should reward her." ”

"It's a reward." I haven't seen it for half a year, and Izumi feels that the appearance of the light rhyme has not changed much, but the mood has probably changed, and the cold temperament from before has disappeared a little, and there is a little more peace.

As long as she thinks of Qianyun's infatuation with Yun Ci, Izuku is also very relieved to hand over Yun Cheng to her to take care of. But...... Qianyun is twenty years old this year, and she has long passed the age of marriage, and she has really become an old girl. And the bamboo shadow is also alone, as well as the light heart and bamboo Yang......

In the blink of an eye, this is another year, and the few people who are most valued in Zhiyan Xuan have no major events in their lives, which is always a matter of her heart, and she feels a headache every time she thinks about it.

After thinking about it, I still have to start with Bamboo Shadow, as long as Bamboo Shadow's marriage is resolved, I can find my mother-in-law's house for the girls. So, one day at the end of April, Izuku left Zhuying alone to speak, which roughly meant that he wanted to persuade him to start a family as soon as possible and find a good girl who knew the roots.

"Do you have a girl in your picture?" Izumi was afraid of provoking his sadness, so she deliberately avoided talking about shallow rhyme.

Takekage thought for a moment and happily admitted, "Yes." If it weren't for the fact that you had come to me, Madame, I would have planned to ask you to marry after the second lady got married. ”

Izuku thought that Zhuying's mind was still on Qianyun, so she smiled and hinted: "The word love cannot be forced, and it must be happy with each other to last for a long time." ”

Zhuying was stunned for a moment, and smiled back very calmly: "You are right, so I can't tell her mind, I want to ask you to help talk about it." Zhuying didn't give Xiu a chance to test again, and said bluntly: "I want to marry Zhuyang." ”

"Zhuyang?" This answer was quite surprising to Chuxiu, she thought...... It will be light rhyme or light heart. However, thinking of Zhu Yang's dignified fist and foot kung fu, as well as his silent posture, he also has something in common with Zhu Ying.

"Is this what is in your heart?" Dexiu wants to confirm.

"Hmm." Zhuying lowered his head, and a rare flush appeared on his honest and resolute face: "It's true." ”

Although this choice was unexpected, it also made her breathe a sigh of relief, if Zhuying was really obsessed with shallow rhyme, or chose a light heart, it would be really a bit tricky. After all, the shallow rhyme and the light mood are the same sisters, no matter who the bamboo shadow chooses, I am afraid that it will be a kind of harm to the sisterhood.

"When?" She was happy for Zhuying from the bottom of her heart: "You actually hid it so tightly that I didn't even find out." ”

Bamboo Shadow smiled dryly and replied truthfully: "There is no time...... Cheng Tian and Zhu Yang have served by your side, and it has been a long time......" He paused helplessly and coughed lightly: "I don't know what she means, I'm afraid she doesn't want to." ”

Only then did Izuku see that the two women that Zhuying liked successively, Qianyun and Zhuyang, were both types who didn't like to talk and were calm and serious. It's just that the shallow rhyme is silent and thoughtful, and Zhu Yang is cold and hot-hearted, and he doesn't let his eyebrows go.

Zhiyanxuan, a writer and a martial artist, is actually a different woman, but they have the same end in nature. It's a pity that I don't care about it......

Izuku sighed silently in her heart, in the end she was still happy for Zhuying and Zhuyang. She suddenly remembered that when she questioned Zhu Yang's martial arts for the first time, Zhu Yang had stubbornly said that the "bamboo" characters were all first-class good skills, and that expression seemed to be not very convincing to Zhu Ying......

With a bamboo shadow, the husband sings with the wife, presumably the husband and wife have nothing to do to fight, which is also a pleasure. What's more, both of them serve by their own side and are closer.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiu responded: "You go, leave this matter to me, keep it and say that it will move Zhuyang." ”

Zhuying's eyebrows moved, faintly revealing some joy, and he thanked him restrainedly.

On the same day, when Zhuyang was on duty, Chuxiu passed her in to speak, but the side didn't say much, only asked: "Fang Zhuying asked me to marry you, are you willing?" ”

Zhu Yang'e raised her eyebrows, and a heroic spirit came out from between her eyebrows, and she pondered for a moment and asked, "Doesn't he like shallow rhyme?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Izumi knew that Zhu Yang must also be interested. Zhu Yang came to know Yan Xuan at the latest, at that time Zhu Ying and Qian Yun had gradually become estranged, if she didn't pay attention to it secretly, how could she know Zhu Ying's previous thoughts? Since you have paid attention, there is a play!

Seeing Zhu Yang's faintly jealous appearance, Izuku only felt funny, and hurriedly defended Zhu Ying: "Don't get me wrong, he has served by the side of Hou Ye since he was a child, and he has known Qianyun for a long time. If you say that there is affection, but what is his human nature, you and I can see it, and it is definitely not a half-hearted person. Since he asked me to marry you, he naturally let go of his heart. ”

Zhu Yang was noncommittal, and only said, "I want to talk to him alone first." ”

If it is in an ordinary high gate deep courtyard, the marriage of the subordinate is naturally decided by the master, not to mention that the woman has to discuss the marriage with the man in private. Only Zhu Yang's undisguised straightforward nature dared to make such a request.

Izumi also doesn't like pretentious women, and seeing that Zhu Yang is so refreshing, she simply nodded: "Okay, but there is one thing, whether you succeed or not, you don't have to make a difference with each other." ”

Zhu Yang didn't say anything more when he heard this, and went straight to Zhuying's courtyard.

In Pingsuri, although the two of them are the personal male and female guards of Izumi, they have always been evenly divided, and there is not much contact in private. Zhu Ying only opened his mouth to Izuku at noon, and in the afternoon, he saw Zhu Yang personally looking for him, and he guessed a little in his heart.

"You...... Here it comes. Bamboo Shadow only said this, and didn't know how to say it anymore.

In fact, if you look closely, although Zhu Yang is not as beautiful and outstanding as Qianyun and light-hearted, her sassy and heroic posture has a unique style, and it is also a temperament that a weak woman does not have. She was wrapped around her waist in a black suit, and her slender fingers held the long sword she carried with her, and she put it on the table with a "snap", and said straight to the point: "I don't like to retreat to second, and I don't like to be retreated to second." ”

Zhuying reacted for a moment before she realized the meaning of her words: "You know everything?" ”

"You're so concerned about Qianyun, fools can see it." As long as the light rhyme appears, the bamboo shadow's gaze will seem to fall on her, and sometimes it will be deliberately avoided. Zhuyang onlookers are clear, and they can see it clearly when they ask themselves.

Hearing this, Zhuying smiled bitterly: "These are all in the past, can you believe it?" ”

Zhu Yang looked him up and down, without squeaking, and waited for the following.

Seeing this, Zhuying no longer concealed it, and simply said the original thing: "I and Qianyun are both slaves of the Yun family, and we have known each other since childhood, she was transferred from Mrs. Tai at the age of twelve or thirteen to Zhiyanxuan, and I am opposite to her day and night, and it is difficult to say that I am not moved." ”

Zhu Yang didn't react when he heard it, and looked straight at Zhu Ying, as if he was listening and observing.

Zhuying sighed, and said: "Actually, I can't say how I feel about Qianyun, maybe it's because I'm used to seeing her every day, and I'm used to discussing things with her, and I always feel that if she marries someone else, I will feel uncomfortable...... But I knew that Qianyun didn't have me in her heart, and I showed her my heart twice, but she refused......"

At this point, Bamboo Shadow didn't continue, and he couldn't tell if it was gloomy or what, in short, his face was not very good-looking. Zhu Yang couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, thought about it, and asked him, "Are you very sad?" ”

"For a while." Zhuying nodded truthfully: "But then you came over, it was different...... Although I think I like Qianyun, I don't like her temperament of admitting death, and I don't like her stubbornness. You...... It's good, right is right, wrong is wrong, I love it. ”

"It turns out that you are a person who likes my temperament and likes light rhyme." Zhu Yang scoffed.

"It's not ......" Zhu Ying wanted to confess, but looking at Zhu Yang's direct gaze, he didn't know where to start. After a long time, it was a sigh: "Although I am not a person who is indiscriminate, I can't compare to the persistent love of shallow rhyme." In this life, there is more than one person who you like, but as long as you know who you want most, then it will be complete. ”

Zhuying has never liked to talk, and it is the first time that he has been dissected like this, even if he has faced Qianyun before, he has never said such things eagerly, as if he is afraid that the other party will not believe it. He looked at Zhu Yang's expression as he spoke, and when he saw that she still didn't react, he couldn't help but be a little disappointed: "It's me who is abrupt, if you don't want to, then forget it." ”

"I believe it." As soon as Zhuying's voice fell, Zhu Yang suddenly spoke.

"What?" Bamboo Shadow was stunned and had not yet reacted.

Zhu Yang picked up the long sword on the table, and said expressionlessly: "You just said that you and Qianyun have passed, ask me if you believe it." Now I answer you, I believe. A hint of cunning crossed his eyes and walked away.

The bamboo shadow stood in place for a long time before he understood the meaning of these words, and a burst of ecstasy surged in his heart. When he chased the door out, the other party was nowhere to be seen.

This is ...... It's done!

Three days later, the marriage of Zhuying and Zhuyang had spread throughout the Yunfu, and Izuku personally took the two of them to Rongjin Hall to meet Mrs. Tai and inform them of this happy event. Mrs. Tai was also very satisfied after hearing this, gave many rewards, and instructed Chuxiu to handle it well.

Coming out of Rong Jintang, Izuku began to think about how much dowry to prepare for Zhu Yang, after all, it was the first one in Zhiyan Xuan. What weight, what scale, set the rules this time, and you can do it when you get married in the future.

Thinking of the two big girls beside Yun Ci again, I couldn't help but sigh again. The three of them returned to Zhiyanxuan without saying anything all the way, and went out to deal with the affairs at hand. Today happened to be Zhuyang's turn to be on duty, and Zhuying said a few words of concern to her, and then returned to his house. As soon as he entered the garden, he saw a figure standing in front of the door from a distance.

It's a light rhyme.

Bamboo Shadow hesitated for a moment, but still smiled and stepped forward to greet her: "Why are you here?" What's going on there? ”

Qianyun pursed her lips and looked: "I heard...... Are you and Zhu Yang going to get married? ”

"Hmm." Bamboo Shadow said frankly, "I asked my wife to marry." ”

Qian Yun seemed to be in disbelief, and looked at him with wide eyes: "You like her?" ”

"Hmm." Bamboo Shadow nodded: "Zhuyang is very good, I like it too." ”

Only this sentence made Qianyun's heart uncomfortable for a while, but I couldn't say why. She lowered her eyes and no longer looked at the bamboo shadow, and was silent for a long time with only one sentence: "Congratulations...... She is more blessed than I am. ”

"Thank you." Zhuying smiled with relief: "You should also think about your own affairs, always stay up like this...... Nor is it a way. ”

Hearing this, a trace of loneliness flashed in Qianyun's eyes: "I have a sense of proportion." ”

"In any case, I will treat you and my heart as if they were my own family," he paused, and added, "just like my own sister." ”

Sister ...... From a sweetheart to a sister-in-law, what does this taste like, Qianyun herself can't tell. In the past, he was blindly persistent and willful.,Stubbornly decided to guard the clouds.,For this, he didn't hesitate to hurt Bamboo Shadow.。 But she always thought that as long as she turned back, the bamboo shadow would be there. It is also because of his protection that she has no hesitation, as if she has a reliance in her heart, there is such a person in this world, who has been waiting silently behind her.

However, looking back now, it is empty, and there are no memories left.

It turned out that Bamboo Shadow didn't have to be her, but she was very self-assured. Qianyun didn't say a word more, and left the garden of Bamboo Shadow with a smile.

She sincerely blessed him and was happy for him. But he also woke up to the fact that he had already squandered his persistent true feelings, and he had already re-loved. Some people, once they miss it, are not in ......

*****

Izumi never thought that the first marriage she ever had after returning to Yunfu was not Yun Muge, but Zhuying and Zhuyang. didn't wait for the second miss of Yunfu to marry the Ye family in Quzhou, this summer, Zhiyanxuan had an extra couple.

What she didn't expect was that in the second month of the marriage of the two, King Mu Nie Peihan made a decree as the regent of Nanxi to give the four archways of the Yun clan. And the person who came to deliver the decree was Nie Peixiao.
