9 Chapter 9

The lake at dusk is very peaceful.

Slender branches hang from the willow tree.

The shadow of the sun slanting to the west covered the lake and the avenue like a light veil of sunset.

"My great-grandfather lingered on the sickbed, and my grandmother had to take care of the house's affairs, and now is the time to be busy, and I don't have anyone I like now, so I won't bother her with unnecessary things."

Perhaps because of his weak heart, he lowered his eyes and looked at the golden lake, and continued: "I don't like those noble girls in the capital either. ”

Li Wenjian bowed his head: "When the marriage relationship is sound, it is natural to choose one you like." ”

An Xu Zhi's fingers hanging on his side bent nervously twice, and after considering his words, he asked Li Wenjian: "Your Highness, if the person I like is from a humble background and is not from a famous family, do you say that grandmother will agree?" ”

The young man's gaze was sincere and warm, hiding a cautious heat.

Li Wenjian said: "Tai/Zu was born in a poor family, and he was a butcher in the mountains and fields back then. Although he was born in the countryside, he was upright and bold, and later Emperor Lu had no way, so that the people in the world were born in fire and water, and the oppressed Tai and Zu waved their arms, and the heroes of the world followed him, and then defeated the Emperor and established the East Fence; His father was also the son of a butcher, but he studied diligently, treated people with sincerity, and was appreciated by Ah Weng, and was exceptionally admitted to Longxi Academy, and later recruited him as a quick son-in-law of the East Bed. It can be seen that the pearl of luminous light does not have to come out of the river of Mengjin. Your grandfather and grandmother were courteous to your butcher-turned-father, and if the person you liked was of high character and worthy of being a family wife, they would not hinder you. ”

An Xu Zhi was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and the corners of his lips, which were originally slightly pursed, curled slightly.

This question has bothered him for a long time, and Zhao Yu will be out of the palace next year.

Zhao Yu has no lofty ambitions, she entered the palace just to mix a bite of food in the troubled times, and her biggest dream is to live a peaceful life after leaving the palace and give her grandmother a pension.

She was afraid of trouble.

If you want to ask her to marry, you must dispel her worries.

It was Ann's acceptance that was very important to him.

Li Wenjian's words gave him great confidence, and the joy in the young man's eyes could not be hidden. He restrained his thoughts and suppressed his joy in vain, but he still inadvertently flowed from the corners of his eyebrows, and nodded slightly: "I know." ”

After a pause, he said, "Aunt Wei is here again." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Li Wenjian's face, and saw that his brows were furrowed, revealing an impatient expression.

"You leave her alone."

An Xu Zhi retracted his gaze and asked tentatively, "Do you really want to watch her marry Yue's family?" ”

Wei Wanyu was really spoiled.

Because Li Wenjian was ashamed of Wei Zhan, he doted on Wei Wanyu since she was a child, and even though her temperament was tricky and arrogant. It's just a small fight on weekdays, but this time he dared to use the marriage as a raft to blackmail him.

"She wants what she wants, and naturally she wants it." Li Wenjian said slowly.

An Xuzhi finally lived up to Wei Wanyu's trust, and did not open his mouth to intercede, because he was too familiar with Li Wenjian's temperament, and his heart was like a rock, and he could not be broken at will.

After An Xu Zhi returned to his residence, he immediately carefully took the green hosta in his arms and played with it. She has a gentle temperament and does not like to swagger, so she will definitely like this hairpin.

Imagining Zhaoyun's long hair pulled up, and the plain appearance of this hairpin, the corners of his lips curled.

The warm orange light reflected his figure on the wall, gently swaying with the east wind entering the window.

After smiling at the hairpin for a while, he turned around and took out a silk silk from the box, wrapped the green jade hairpin gently, for fear of being bumped somewhere, and then pressed it under the pillow.

Zhao Yu is not in the East Palace these days, and maybe he will be transferred to work on an errand somewhere, and he will give it to her in two days.

By the way, I resigned, but when I thought of going south to Jiangnan, I might not be able to see Zhao Xun for several months, and I was worried and reluctant in my heart, and the corners of my mouth that were originally upturned drooped down without warning.

However, His Highness's words today gave him great encouragement and prompted him to make up his mind that when he returned from Jiangnan, he would discuss with her to marry her.

After four or five years of getting along, it is ruthless and affectionate.

He understood, there was some affection, although he had never said it, but he never needed to say much, he could understand.

He believed, and she understood.

But there are also vague concerns.

Is she willing to be Bai Yu's wife, is she willing to be An Xuzhi's wife?

How can I dispel her worries and make her agree to marry him without worries?

The young man lay down on the bed with longing and apprehension, muttered the word Zhao Xun repeatedly in his heart, and then fell asleep with a state of mind of gain and loss.

At the same time, his sweetheart was looking at the patterns in the room, and after seeing a lot, he felt that it was not worthy of the white elm's demeanor.

This is the first pair of shoes she gave to Bai Yu, and probably the last.

She has already thought about it, and she wants to make the foundation loose and soft, so that he can walk safely and smoothly in the future. The pulp needs to be pasted in several layers to be durable.

How long has he worn a pair of shoes? Maybe two years, maybe three years......

The reason why I remember it so clearly is because a few years ago he came to deliver something to her in the winter, she buried chestnuts in the stove, and before leaving, she pulled a few grains for him, and when the door of the stove opened, sparks splashed out and landed on the instep of his foot, burning a big hole in the upper of his shoes.

Later, she paid attention to his shoes from time to time, almost always the same pair.

So she naturally thought of giving him a pair of shoes.

She regretted that she should have prepared for him earlier, and made him many, many shoes, enough for him to wear for a long, long time.

She and the crown prince have already talked about it, and His Royal Highness will not want her life for the time being.

But there was one thing that His Highness did not mention, and she did not know how to speak.

- The prince did not say how to place her.

She unexpectedly accepted the favor, and with her identity, she could at most be a nameless concubine in the East Palace.

Heaven is so graceful that you can get a few points on an insignificant concubine?

Besides, she came from a humble background and had a weak family background, how far can she go in the palace where she worships high and low?

The most important thing is that she wants to leave the palace, and her grandmother is still waiting for her to be reunited.

But this thing is not up to her, and her coming and going has never been up to her.

It was because Li Wenjian didn't mention it, and she didn't mention it either.

As if this is the case, nothing will happen, as long as she is honest and honest, she will be able to leave the palace as scheduled next year.

But her illusions were shattered the next day.

The morning sun had not yet fully risen, so Zhao Yu got up early and planned to go to the medicine room after freshening up.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Mu Gui standing in the courtyard.

"Move to the Changqiu Palace?" Zhao's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Mu Gui as if asking for help.

"Not far to the west of the Chengming Palace, the fourth princess was clamoring to come to the East Palace to live some time ago, and His Royal Highness just asked people to clean it up." Mu Gui said.

Zhao Yu didn't answer, he looked at Mu Gui with his eyes, his tight heartstrings suddenly broke, and his heart was hesitant and worried. What she had been worried about for a long time still happened.

After sending off Mu Hui, Zhao frowned and returned to the room. It's spring, the chilblains on the hands are gradually healing, the wound is itchy, but the back of the hand was burned again yesterday, and I can't pick it out, so I can only let the itch slowly drill into the bones.

When the itch was terrible, she unwrapped the gauze and soaked her hand in warm water.

The scarred and swollen hands in the water were magnified several times.

It was the result of years of hard work.
