Shen Zhan looked at her fixedly.

The afterglow fell on his face, and there was a kind of handsomeness between his eyebrows, and he was dressed in a fox robe, which made him stand tall.

Ye Lingwu silently took a small step back: "Why is Master Hou here?" ”

There are only women's seats in the inner courtyard, how can he a man "happen" to pass by here, the only way to say is that he came to her on purpose.

Shen Zhan didn't answer, Ye Lingwu didn't want to leave casually, thought about it, and asked again: "In the past three years, how has Master Hou been doing in Northern Xinjiang?" ”

Shen Zhan's eyes darkened, and he replied: "It's all good to eat, drink and have fun." ”

Ye Lingwu smiled dryly and said: "This is very good, during the three years that the Hou Ye was not in the capital, Wangshu often listened to the queen's mother thinking about you when he brought me into the palace, and the old lady too." ”

Shen Zhan's eyes were deep, and the words hidden in his heart were silent for a long time before he spoke: "What about you, have you been okay for the past three years?" ”

Ye Lingwu said: "Everything is fine. ”

Shen Zhan said sarcastically: "You have been married to Scholar Jiang for three years and have no heirs, which also means that everything is fine?" ”

"......" This person also talks about children.

Ye Lingwu stiffened his neck, took a deep breath and said: "There are thousands of ways for husbands and wives to get along, and not having children is one of them. ”

Shen Zhan pulled the corners of his mouth disapprovingly, and said, "What you said is good, I just heard that Scholar Jiang has been frail and sick since he was a child, and Lady Jiang is only afraid that she knows how cold and warm she is living these days." ”

I was scolded again.

Ye Lingwu said: "How I'm doing without worrying about the Hou Ye." ”

"I don't worry at all, what does it matter to me that you don't have children." Shen Zhan's words were extremely contradictory, even with a little imperceptible jealousy.

Ye Lingwu frowned, and said, "If Master Hou wants to enjoy the plum, please take care of yourself, Lingwu won't bother." ”

“…… Someone's coming. Shen Zhan said in a deep voice.

Ye Lingwu just raised his footsteps for a moment, and when he listened carefully, there were indeed footsteps coming this way.

Now that she is a wife, if someone sees her alone with Shen Zhan, I am afraid that it will not sound very good.

She looked flustered, her eyes wandered, and she saw a rockery barrier not far away, so she ran in without thinking.

Who knew that the snow on the ground had not cleared, and a small part of the snow melted away to form thin ice.

“…… Hmm"

Ye Lingwu snorted in his throat, his facial features were wrinkled, fortunately, he was dressed thick enough, and this back fall did not hurt the bones, but the flesh was a little painful.

Shen Zhan, who heard the movement outside, frowned, and was just about to go over to inspect when he heard a squeamish female voice from behind.

- "Why is Brother Bang Zhou here, it makes Hongling very easy to find." ”

The sixth princess stood at the entrance of the road, and saw Shen Zhan standing with her back to her, standing tall under the plum tree, and her straight face instantly showed joy.

Seeing that Shen Zhan ignored herself, the sixth princess was unconvinced, and slowly leaned over and said: "Brother Bangzhou's return to Beijing banquet today is so lively, when Hongling and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came together, I also saw Fu Xiaoguoye, who had not been out for a long time. ”

Shen Zhan glanced at her lightly, and said impatiently: "The sixth princess is not in the women's seat, why did she come here?" ”

The sixth princess pouted and asked, "Brother Bang Zhou is not here, why can't Hongling come?" ”

Shen Zhan was silent.

Behind the rockery barrier over there, Ye Lingwu stood up with difficulty, patted the snow on his body lightly, and secretly scolded the sixth princess in his heart for being a god of decay and naturally restraining her.

In the past three years, she has gone to many banquets with Jiang Yuan into the palace, and every time she feasts, she was inevitably scolded by the six princesses, so that she always took advantage of the excitement and returned in defeat.

Later, she learned to be smart, she couldn't afford to provoke and couldn't hide, as long as it was a palace banquet, she should push it on the grounds of poor health, and over time, she and the sixth princess hadn't seen each other for almost a year and a half.

When I met the six princesses again, she had changed a lot, her original round little face disappeared, and her angular cheeks were much better looking than before, but they were a little more mean, and she was dressed in white velvet and red to make her delicate, and it was not difficult to see that she was going to the banquet after dressing up carefully today.

Ye Lingwu secretly exposed half of her face, and looked through the plum blossom branches in front of her, and saw the sixth princess looking up at Shen Zhan with a cold face on her face.

"Brother Bangzhou, after you came back, the queen mother still mentioned your marriage to Your Majesty, and the queen mother also asked when you would go to Changhua Palace to talk to her."

“…… Your marriage to me? Shen Zhan's tone was solemn.

The sixth princess lowered her head, nodded and said: "Yes, the queen mother has been worried about your hard time in northern Xinjiang all these years, and I only asked me to go to northern Xinjiang to find you half a year ago, and then when I returned to Beijing, I told the queen a lot of things about me and you, and the queen mother was very happy to hear it, so she mentioned a marriage to His Majesty." ”

Seeing that Shen Zhan's eyes were displeased and he didn't say a word, the sixth princess hurriedly added: "This is because Your Majesty naturally didn't agree, but Your Majesty said that you will discuss it after you return to Beijing." ”

Ye Ling's misty eyes flickered.

The queen boasted that she had no quarrel with the world, and would actually ask the emperor to marry the two. It's not for nothing that the emperor didn't agree, if he really wants to marry the sixth princess to Shen Zhan, the Baili clan is really dominant.

"The next marriage is not up to the queen and His Majesty, the sixth princess has indeed reached the age of marriage, and when the queen mother is the master of your marriage in the future, Benhou will personally give a dowry to the sixth princess." Shen Zhan's tone was cold and cold, without the slightest fluctuation.

The sixth princess was stunned, her eyes suddenly became cloudy, and she said aggrievedly: "Brother Bang Zhou thinks that Hongling is not worthy of you?" Yes, Hongling's mother is just a little beauty, and her family status is indeed not worthy of the Ningbei Hou Mansion, but ...... Hongling has admired you for so many years, and for you to be willing to go to Northern Xinjiang alone to accompany you, isn't Brother Bangzhou a little moved? ”

"Nope." Shen Zhan was crisp and neat.

"......" The sixth princess was stunned and stunned for a moment.

Ye Lingwu smiled coldly, and hurriedly covered his mouth so that he didn't laugh.

The sixth princess looked ashamed, but she still didn't give up: "Brother Bang Zhou doesn't want to get married, is there still that person in his heart!" She has been married for three years. ”

In Yusu City that year, she saw Shen Zhan and Ye Lingwu putting wishing lamps on the river bank on the covered bridge, which was the first time she saw the general of the Zhu Kingdom, who was known as the "cold-faced Yama", and also had a tender side.

Jealousy and anger almost consumed her.

She was jealous that the person Shen Zhan liked was not her, and she was angry that the person Shen Zhan liked was not her, but she was still the daughter of a lowly businessman.

It's even more insulting than a slap in the face.

Later, when she heard that Ye Lingwu married Jiang Yuan, it was probably because of her self-esteem, and when she thought that the arrogant Shen Xiaohou would also have someone who couldn't get it, the pleasure of revenge couldn't be expressed in words.
