Ye Lingwu was about to stand up in a panic, but as soon as he had a weak shoulder, he was pressed back by a pair of thugs, and a low male voice came from behind him.

- "Don't move, it'll be right away." ”

Ye Lingwu didn't dare to move, she could only feel the big palm coiling on the top of her head, and the man's mature breath wrapped her completely, and after a long time, the sense of oppression retreated.

She breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look, Shen Zhan had an oval bronze mirror with a wood carving frame hooked with fine flowers in her hand.

"Qingqing take a look, are you still satisfied?" Shen Zhan stretched out the bronze mirror in front of Ye Lingwu, Ye Lingwu took a closer look, it was not good-looking, but it was not loose at all, and the hairpin on his head was on the bun, with a hint of "woman" posture.

"Full... Satisfied, Hou Ye is naturally satisfied with the hairpin for the younger generation, but this step is rewarded by the queen's mother, it is really inappropriate for Hou Ye to send me, how can I afford the gift of heaven. ”

As she spoke, she raised her hand to get the hairpin on her head, but before she could touch the hairpin, her wrist was firmly held by a slightly cold big palm, and she couldn't move at all.

Ye Lingwu was stunned for a moment, and raised his eyes to meet Shen Zhan's black eyes, he stood in front of him like a tall and straight mountain, both safe and depressing.

"How old are you and me, but you can't be called a junior elder, right?" The tenderness in his eyes was no longer there, and there was a little more strange affection.

"......" Ye Lingwu hurriedly withdrew his hand and turned his head sideways.

Shen Zhan looked at Ye Lingwu's careful thoughts in his eyes, and hooked the corners of his mouth slightly.

In the past, before going to the battlefield, the general had to arrange the troops, and the one who was interested in a hundred miles was the general, and the one who was interested in it was half a mile, and he was not in a hurry, as long as the result was obedient to his will, so it didn't matter if he took his time.

Shen Zhan lowered his eyelashes and said lightly: "Originally, the hairpin was to be carefully selected, but His Majesty has ordered to leave the Southern Regions the day after tomorrow, and I should have gone back to the barracks tonight, but thinking that I couldn't meet for a long time after today, I still went home." ”

Ye Lingwu frowned.

I don't know why, when I heard him say this, I secretly despised whether I was too ignorant, she had a short mouth and a short hand, she had eaten and drunk for so long in the Hou Mansion in Ningbei, although these were all given by Mrs. Shen, but in the final analysis, the source was Shen Zhan.

Now that the master's family is going to travel far away, should she say some parting words and comfort her?

But what should I say, it's a pity that she doesn't know poetry and books, otherwise she would have to quote the ancient saying to express her "missing" no matter what she said at this moment.

After thinking about it for a long time, Ye Lingwu felt the indescribable taste in his heart, only to feel that his head was about to get bigger, and finally said helplessly: "...... I, I'm waiting for Hou Ye to come back in the Hou Mansion, I know that I didn't play well in this chess today, and when Hou Ye comes back, Ling Wu will accompany Hou Ye to play a serious game. ”

Shen Zhan looked at the girl, and his expression was finally gentle: "Okay." ”

His words were simple and calm, Ye Lingwu opened his lips and stopped, feeling inexplicably sad, thinking that every time he traveled far away, he would inevitably use a knife and a gun.

Last time, when I saw Shen Zhan covered in blood when I was in the Governor of the Moon Prefecture, I felt terrible at the time, but later I saw that he was covered in injuries and felt that this person was quite strong, but now Ye Lingwu only felt panicked in her heart, if she could, she was willing to pray to the heavens every day for his safe return.

Back in Jinghe Hall, Ye Lingwu's whole person was fluttering, lying on the bed like a numb, turning over and over on the bed as if he was pasting pancakes.

She tossed and turned like this for more than an hour, got up and walked a few steps in the house, still feeling bored, and finally lay down on the soft couch, opened the flower window, and looked at the starry sky to feel a lot more comfortable.

On the second day, when I went to the main house to serve Mrs. Shen, I unexpectedly had two big dark circles under my eyes, and I was nagged by Mama Xuan on the side for a long time.

Suddenly, news came from the outer courtyard - Shen Zhan was about to go to the Southern Regions, and he was preparing to leave outside the mansion at this moment.

The old lady Shen, who was still drinking the decoction with peace of mind, had a sudden change in expression, put down the bowl and hurried to the outside of the house, Ye Lingwu and Mama Xuan almost didn't follow.

Outside the mansion, the people who saw them off were surrounded by water, in addition to the Ningbei Hou Mansion, the officials who had a good relationship in the city also came, and the pomp and circumstance were huge.

As soon as Ye Lingwu squeezed out, he heard Qin Mingyu's crying.

But it was not surprising that everyone heard this.

Over the years, whenever Shen Zhan traveled far away, the dignified and generous housewife of the Hou Mansion would always cry silently, and it took a while to ease up.

Ye Lingwu was petite, standing tightly blocked in the crowd, and she could only look at the man on horseback through the gap.

The brocade dark cloak covering Shen Zhan's body fluttered in the wind, and above his head was the black flag of the word "Shen", which was already awe-inspiring just by looking at it from the gap.

Seeing Shen Zhan leave, the couple in the second room comforted Qin Mingyu and Mrs. Shen to go back to the house, and the house was scattered.

Ye Lingwu crossed the threshold with the hem of her skirt and was about to return to Jinghetang, when she turned around and saw Shen Ci leaning on the door frame, staring at herself for I don't know how long.

Since the last time they returned to the Jiuyun Palace, they hadn't spoken.

In fact, Ye Lingwu didn't know what she was angry at the time, probably because she felt that Shen Ci had deceived her, and she didn't believe it, but how many men in this world could be trusted, when she was young, she looked at Ye Huaisheng's sweet words to her mother, and felt happy in a loving home.

But time told her that those who said but didn't do it were not worth entrusting.

The four women made the little servants come and go, and Ye Lingwu would not fall into her mouth when she greeted her, but she left as if she were blind.

It's time to listen to school again.

Ye Lingwu looked out the window, the sky was gray and cloudy, as if it was going to rain, and people's mood was depressed.

After a while, it really started to rain lightly.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and by the time Wei Fuzi finished class, the drizzle had already tended to be heavier.

The raindrops kept dripping under the eaves, and Ye Lingwu and Rongxiu stood under the porch, just waiting for Shen Pan'er to be troubled by Wei Fuzi, and the rain could be lighter.

Ye Lingwu hung his head, and when he saw a small pebble at his feet, he gently crushed the pebble with the tip of his shoe to play.

I don't know how long it took, there was a sudden darkness above her head, and she suddenly looked up, and saw Shen Ci standing in front of her with an ink oil paper umbrella, the young man was still in a brick-red brocade robe, with high black hair, and a pair of fox eyes that were rarely serious at the moment.

"Is my cousin stupid, I don't know how to hide from the water dripping on my clothes." The opening is still underbeaten.

"Aren't you too, your shoulders are wet." Ye Lingwu retorted. Even though she has an umbrella and gets her clothes wet, she is not more stupid than her.

Shen Ci snorted unnaturally, and replied: "Yes, I am the only one who can't bear the beauty blowing into the cold wind, so I specially asked the Rong family for an umbrella to send it, but the beauty still looks disgusted, my life is really bitter." ”

"When did I get rid of it?" Ye Lingwu blurted out, but when he heard the Rong Xiu on his side, he sneered, and then realized that he had fallen into Shen Ci's way.

"Since the poor beauty of the second son is blown into the cold wind, let's hurry up and send it, this summer is hot, and the beauty in the eyes of the second son is really delicate." Ye Lingwu's cheeks were slightly red, and he glanced at Shen Ci.

Shen Ci took a few steps forward, the young man's scorching breath came to his face, Ye Lingwu watched Shen Ci tilt the umbrella in his hand towards her head: "Isn't it delicate, the delicate flowers in the garden were hit by the rain before they could be appreciated, and they fell to the ground, which is a pity." ”

Ye Ling took a step back without a trace, and was about to refute him, but saw Shen Yue'er walking out of the school, and said with a light smile: "Second brother, the fourth sister didn't bring an umbrella today, you only gave an umbrella to your cousin, don't you give it to your own sister?" ”

After all, they are brother and sister, Shen Ci saw that her smile was meaningful, and immediately guessed what this girl was thinking, lazily stuffed her hand into Ye Lingwu's hand, and said to her: "Just an umbrella, you two fight." ”

After saying that, he left in the rain.

In the end, Ye Lingwu and Shen Yue'er didn't leave, and waited for the rain to stop, and Shen Pan'er "escaped" from Wei Fuzi's men before leaving together.
