Chapter 200: Determination
Because there were no outsiders, he didn't pay so much attention to it, so Yu Zheng took Zhou Boxu directly to the main courtyard.
The three people sitting around the table were full of food and drink, lazily supporting their heads, and there was not a word of gossip.
When Zhou Boxu saw Yu Lan's appearance, he couldn't help but think that many years ago, Yu Lan was always like this. After school, he hid and ate snacks, and after he was full, he held his head and talked to him lazily.
For years, he lost count of how long it had been since he had seen her like this again.
Zhou Boxu's eyes sank, and he looked at Yu Lan's heart surging in front of him.
This is the person he has been thinking about for many years, and it is right in front of him at this moment, and he can touch it as soon as he reaches out a few steps forward.
"Husband, Lord Zhou." Jiang Shu was the first to see the two people outside the door and was surprised.
Sun Yijun and Yu Lan turned around when they heard this, and when they saw Yu Zheng and Zhou Boxu, their expressions were different.
Sun Yijun was taken aback, and hurriedly sat upright and tidied up his appearance.
Zhou Boxu was dressed in a dark blue brocade shirt, with a silver crown and bundled hair, his face was cold and solemn, and he stood with a long body, like a pine and cypress in the cold wind.
Yu Lan stared fixedly, a little unable to believe what he was seeing.
Over the years, although they have been in Beijing together, they have rarely seen each other. Every time we meet, it's just a glimpse from afar, and there is not much overlap.
Suddenly so close, the two looked at each other, and thousands of thoughts rushed into their hearts, blocked in their throats, and they couldn't say a word.
They were speechless.
Yu Zheng glanced at them and asked Sun Yijun, "Do you want to call Yu Yuan?" ”
When Sun Yijun heard this, he glanced at Zhou Boxu again and said, "He must be in Cuiyun Tower at this time, and I will take a carriage to pick him up." ”
"Yes, too." Yu Zheng turned sideways to give way.
Sun Yijun hurriedly got up and walked quickly.
The sun is about to set, Zhuang Yun and Jiang Ning are out of school, and they will come to the palace in a short time.
Yu Zheng said slowly: "Let's go to the front hall." ”
Jiang Shu came to his senses, and his apricot eyes flashed: "My clothes are dirty and I have to change my body, husband, you wait for me, Sister A and Lord Zhou will take the first step." ”
"Okay." Zhou Boxu answered, turned around and walked up.
Yu Lan glanced at Yu Zheng and got up to follow.
Yu Lan and Zhou Boxu both knew the road in Fuzhong, so they didn't have anyone to follow.
The two walked slowly from the backyard to the front hall, separated by a long distance, very rusty.
When he walked to the garden in the front yard, Zhou Boxu in front of him suddenly stopped.
Yu Lan was stunned and paused.
Zhou Boxu turned around, looked at Yu Lan's shocked little face, and said respectfully: "On the honorable ceremony, the princess is in front." ”
When Yu Lan heard this, he felt that his heart was blocked in one breath, and his beautiful eyes glared at Zhou Boxu with resentment, and stepped forward angrily.
After many years, he is still so virtuous, and he always talks about the number of courtesies and humility.
When Yu Lan passed in front of Zhou Boxu, he brought a cool breeze, and the cold Zhou Boxu's eyes shrank.
She seems to be angry?
Why is she angry? Don't want to see him?
Zhou Boxu frowned, hung his head slightly and followed behind Yu Lan.
Just like before, he always couldn't understand why Yu Lan was angry, so he could only follow her silently and accompany her.
The people of the palace had already cleaned up the front hall, and after the two of them sat down in the front hall, the maid immediately served hot tea.
Yu Lan had been drinking all afternoon, and when he saw the tea, he frowned, and he really couldn't drink it.
After the maid retreated, there was no one else in the hall, Zhou Boxu stared at Yu Lan for a long time, and hesitated to speak.
"Recently, there has been a big thief in the city, not only robbing money, but sometimes robbing sex, the princess should be more careful when traveling."
At the end, Zhou Boxu added: "Just in case, I'll send the princess back tonight." ”
"Master Zhou is really conscientious." Yu Lan's expression was faint and slightly sarcastic.
Zhou Boxu knew that she resented him, but he didn't care, but he didn't know how to please her.
They finally met once, but they couldn't waste this opportunity.
"How have the princesses been doing all these years?"
When Zhou Boxu said this, his throat was slightly hoarse, and his eyes were burning at Yu Lan.
Yu Lan's heart rolled, and he said unclearly: "What do you say? ”
She was only nineteen when she gave birth to Zhuang Yun, and she began to be widowed before she was twenty, and it was eight years in a flash.
These eight years are a woman's best years, she has spent all her time as a widow, and he even asked her if she was okay?
Yu Lan only felt ridiculous, and a sarcastic smile appeared on his lips.
This smile fell in Zhou Boxu's eyes, deeply piercing his heart, and he said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I lost you." ”
Yu Lan said: "I have never blamed you for this. ”
She didn't have a choice for what happened back then, and Zhou Boxu didn't have a choice, because she didn't blame him.
If Mrs. Zhou hadn't stopped her with death, Zhou Boxu would have asked for an order to go to the battlefield, and it would have been impossible to come back alive, and there would have been no such person in this world.
What is really strange about her is the coldness of Zhou Boxu and her self-righteous silent guardianship over the years.
"I know." Zhou Boxu stared at Yu Lan from afar, as if he had made up some kind of determination: "I won't retreat in the future." ”
When he learned of Yu Zheng's intentions in Lin'an Mansion, Zhou Boxu was full of shock and felt that it was impossible for Yu Zheng to achieve his wishes.
However, just a few months have passed, Yu Zheng not only got his wish, but also had a child.
Zhou Boxu couldn't help but think of what Yu Zheng had said that day.
Things are man-made, and people will win the day. There is nothing that can't be done, only people who can't do it.
He had been thinking about it all this time, and finally figured it out.
He wants to marry Yu Lan, and he only wants to marry Yu Lan in this life. If he can't get what he wants, he will die and will not be able to see him.
He had been in remorse for years and did not want to spend the rest of his life in remorse.
The mistakes of the past cannot be changed, and we can only wake up in time and not make mistakes to the end.
Suddenly hearing Zhou Boxu say this, Yu Lan's heart trembled, and there was a moment of blankness in his mind.
After coming back to his senses, Yu Lan asked him with slightly red eyes: "Mrs. Zhou agreed?" ”
Zhou Boxu shook his head, and his tone was firm: "My mother doesn't know yet, but the same thing won't happen a second time." ”
Yu Lan looked at the man in front of him and felt a little strange.
In her memory, Zhou Boxu was a taciturn and stubborn teenager. He is both civil and military, tall and handsome, affectionate and single-minded, which satisfies all Yu Lan's beautiful imagination of men.
But today's Zhou Boxu has faded away from the jerky and unruly of a teenager, and has become calm and serious, depressed and cold, and his brows are always slightly twisted, which makes people know that he is unhappy at a glance.
He's not happy, she's not happy, why are they like this?
"You've really thought about it?" Yu Lan asked with red eyes as he squeezed his hands.
Zhou Boxu nodded solemnly.
Yu Lan's heart was surging, and he choked up with a little trepidation: "If you leave me behind this time, no matter what the reason, I will not forgive you again." ”
He can have a last resort, but she also has her own arrogance.
"No, even if I die, I will never let you go again." Zhou Boxu said, wanting to get up and approach Yu Lan.
"Mother."
Zhuang Yun's voice came from outside the hall.
When Zhou Boxu heard the sound, he had to sit back and turn his head to look at the door.
Yu Lan quickly wiped the wetness from the corners of his eyes with a Jinpa, and raised a smile: "Yun'er." ”
Zhuang Yun entered the hall and was a little surprised to see Zhou Boxu.
"Young Master Zhuang." Zhou Boxu saluted him.
Zhuang Yun walked up to Yu Lan after returning the salute, and keenly noticed that Yu Lan's expression was wrong: "Mother, are you crying?" ”
Zhuang Yun raised his eyes and looked at Zhou Boxu, which meant obviously.
There are only the two of them in the hall, if Yu Lan cries, it must have something to do with Zhou Boxu.
