15 The day before departure

Zhu Yinzhou stared at Lin Zhi and asked, "Where did you hear about this?" ”

"It's spread all over Chang'an City today, Shen Xiang ......" Lin Zhi paused, his face was shocked, "Is this actually true?" ”

"Isn't it always good? Why did you suddenly get away with it? Thinking of something, Lin Zhi guessed: "Could it be because Chen Lanshuang lived in the palace before?" ”

"Or is it because you didn't rush back on the day of the crown princess's birthday?"

Lin Zhi racked his brains and could only think of these two things, he was puzzled: "But didn't you go to the city gate to send the crown princess that day?" Why didn't you keep her then? ”

After saying that, Lin Zhi also felt that he was concerned and messed up, and Zhu Yinzhou was not the temperament to do such a thing.

Lin Zhi originally thought that in this world, only the gentle and tolerant temperament of the crown princess could stand Zhu Yinzhou's coldness for several years, but he didn't expect that the two would still reconcile and leave quietly.

Shen Xiang said that they had already reconciled, and that was what had happened before Shen Hanshuang left Beijing.

And Zhu Yinzhou not only did not stop this, but also sent Shen Hanshuang out of the city like no one else. Could it be that the two reached a consensus on the matter of reconciliation and separation, so they got together and dispersed?

Xu is because he has never been interested in any girl, Lin Zhi really doesn't understand how the relationship between the two has developed to this point.

But if there are more, it is not suitable for Lin Zhi to ask.

Just when he didn't know what to continue to say, he heard Zhu Yinzhou say softly: "I will go to Luoyang in the near future, and you should pay more attention to the affairs in the forbidden military camp." ”

"I know, my father said that you are going to investigate the murder of Jiang Jibai's family."

Lin Zhi couldn't help but think to himself: It is worthy of Zhu Yinzhou.

Shen Xiang's side took the first step to let the news that Zhu Yinzhou and Shen Hanshuang had reconciled spread all over Chang'an, and it seemed that he had no nostalgia for his granddaughter's marriage to the new prince, and Zhu Yinzhou was still calmly arranging official affairs, unaffected.

After Lin Zhi left the palace, Zhu Yinzhou stared at the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone that Shen Hanshuang had given him in the study for a long time.

Zhu Yinzhou knew that these were all carefully prepared for him by Shen Hanshuang. He had been keeping these things before, and he had never used them, but he was sold by Shen Hanshuang.

Buyers have already used them these days, and the original brand new items have been used by others.

No matter how precious the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone Zhu Yinzhou have seen and used, but they just put away all the things that Shen Hanshuang gave him, and they didn't use them intentionally.

In the past, Zhu Yinzhou had never thought about why he was like this, but now, looking at those dazzling traces left by others, he seemed to have vaguely touched the boundary of something.

His father once tempted him by sending him to Luoyang, but Zhu Yinzhou did not answer positively at that time, but only he understood that even if he was not on official business, he would go to Luoyang.

Since his father reminded him in the first year of marriage, Zhu Yinzhou planned to go with Shen Hanshuang to worship his father-in-law and mother-in-law every year. This year is no exception.

But when he saw the book that Shen Hanshuang left behind, Zhu Yinzhou knew that even if there was nothing else, he would have to go on this trip.

On the night of the wedding, he told Shen Hanshuang that he would not force her to be his wife, and if Shen Hanshuang wanted to leave, he would not force her to stay.

But at the very least, he wanted to hear her reasoning.

Shen Xiang wanted to make public that he had reconciled with Shen Hanshuang, and he wished that Yinzhou would not stop it, and he had no position to stop it.

And so it is, they have already reconciled.

Shen Hanshuang didn't want to be married to him anymore.

Thinking of this, I wish Yinzhou a gloomy mood in his eyes that is fleeting.

After a while, Zhu Yinzhou walked out of the study and returned to the bedroom of Mingxi Courtyard, which he had not set foot in for many days.

All the decorations in the house are still the same as before Shen Hanshuang left Beijing.

The broken sachet and the book she had left behind were still on the table.

It's not that he deliberately ignores it, and something can go back to before it happened.

Getting married requires both nods, but when it comes to separation, only one person needs to make up their minds.

Neither he nor she are the ones who will force each other.

Although he would go to Luoyang to see her, he just wanted to know why she wanted to leave. He won't pester her, let alone disturb her peaceful life.

Zhu Yinzhou read the book he had written three years ago, and then went to the household department with the book in person, transferred Shen Hanshuang's household registration back to the Shen family, and entered the palace to change the jade.

At this point, whether in front of or after people, he and Shen Hanshuang are no longer husband and wife.

As she wished.

*

Soon, everyone in Chang'an City knew that the marriage between the Shen family and the royal family had completely ended.

The attitudes of the bystanders were different, but many Kyoto noblewomen who knew Shen Hanshuang felt sorry and regretful for her-

"Seeing that His Majesty's enthronement ceremony is imminent, and the canonization ceremony of the crown prince and the crown princess is also being prepared, she has already reconciled with the new prince." The daughter of a Beijing official said with pity.

Yu Nanyi, the daughter of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department beside her, frowned and reminded: "Royal affairs, you and I are cautious. ”

"We just said a few words casually in private, and we didn't say anything inappropriate, so it will be fine." There is humanity.

"Haven't you always been close to Shen Hanshuang? What do you know? ”

Yu Nanyu shook his head and didn't say much.

She didn't expect that Shen Hanshuang would reconcile with the new prince so suddenly, and the news came out after she left Beijing.

The man stopped asking her, and said, "I suppose they should have been reconciled before the day the rebels forced the palace." ”

Even if there is a big problem between the two, no one thinks that Shen Hanshuang will give up the position of the crown princess that is close in front of him.

"I wonder which of them came up first?" Someone wondered.

"The prince looked cold and cold, and he really didn't look like he would be tempted by any woman."

The others said: "But Shen Hanshuang has been taking care of the palace and the back house with heart for the past three years, and she is a competent daughter-in-law and wife. In this way, maybe she is more affectionate? ”

"Then it shouldn't have been her proposal to reconcile."

Someone speculated: "Could it be that the prince doesn't want Shen Hanshuang anymore, so the two will reconcile?" Then Shen Hanshuang went to Luoyang, I am afraid that he felt that his face was gloomy......"

"That's it." Yu Nanyu reminded again.

When everyone saw that she looked serious, they didn't continue.

But most of them actually agreed with the man's speculation, thinking that it should be the prince's proposal to make peace, and Shen Hanshuang felt that he couldn't stay in Chang'an, so he would go to Luoyang to avoid it.

After all, the same thing is the same thing of harmony and separation, but the impact on men and women is very different.

After the prince and left, there were many girls who wanted to marry him, and among the nobles here, there were many people who had moved their minds.

But a woman who has been married to a woman will always bear the strange eyes of more outsiders. Don't say that if you find a good marriage, it is unknown whether you can stay in your mother's house or not.

Just look at Chen Xiang's daughter Chen Lanshuang, her husband rebelled and died, her mother's family not only didn't say to take her home, but also sent Chen Lanshuang, who was injured, to a relative's house in Luoyang, as if she didn't bother to take a look.

Shen Hanshuang has been loved and valued by her family since she was a child, even if she also goes to Luoyang, the Ming family over there should not make her life sad, and her situation should be better than Chen Lanshuang.

But it's not a decent thing to do after all. Otherwise, why should she avoid Luoyang?

Originally, many people were still waiting to see, wondering if Shen Hanshuang would regret reconciling with the new prince and missing the position of crown princess.

Now that Shen Hanshuang has gone to Luoyang, they can only secretly guess one or two.

Luoyang City.

Shen Hanshuang didn't know the various true or false speculations that had gone viral in Chang'an. Since the day she arrived in Luoyang, she has lived a very smooth life, except for thinking of the family in the Shen Mansion, she rarely thinks of the people and things in Chang'an City.

My grandmother is old, but she still likes to be lively, and she always takes Shen Hanshuang and Ming Shuxue together to visit this old sister today, and go to the newly opened teahouse tomorrow to taste new teas.

It's not like the next generation of grandchildren, but like the three sisters who have forgotten their old friends.

Shen Hanshuang also has a few close friends in Luoyang City who have known each other since childhood, and when she is not with her grandmother, Shen Hanshuang will be invited by them to play everywhere, and her life is very happy and relaxed.

The past in Chang'an City is getting farther and farther away from her, and Shen Hanshuang is also going with the flow.

What she didn't know was that Zhu Yinzhou would soon come to Luoyang.

The day before Zhu Yinzhou set off for Luoyang, he entered the palace to bid farewell to his father and mother.

The emperor told him to be conscientious in his official affairs and not to forget his private affairs.

The jade has changed, the matter of Shen Hanshuang and Zhu Yinzhou's reconciliation is a foregone conclusion, and the emperor is not good to intervene, so Zhu Yinzhou can only deal with it himself.

The queen didn't say much at that time, only after the emperor left in advance, she left Zhu Yinzhou, and then retreated from the palace maid next to her and spoke to him alone.

"I'm just asking about your official business, only about private matters."

As with Zhu Xun, the queen did not change her name to Zhu Yinzhou and called herself "Bengong". She also noticed that the emperor did not call himself "I" in front of his two sons.

It seems that although they have changed their identities, they are still only the parents of these two sons.

"This trip to Luoyang, is there a reason why Hanshuang wants to reconcile with you?" The queen asked in a gentle voice and straight to the point.

Zhu Yinzhou responded truthfully: "Yes." ”

Hearing this, the queen whispered: "You are an assertive child, and you never have to worry about me and your father." ”

"It's natural that you can take Hanshuang home this time, but there are some things that I can't rest assured." The queen stopped talking.

Zhu Yinzhou's trip was not to take Shen Hanshuang back, barely maintaining this marriage that she didn't want to continue, he just wanted to know the reason why she wanted to reconcile.

But he didn't explain, he just said as usual: "The queen mother said that it doesn't matter." ”

The queen looked worried, and asked him, "Do you know why I have never asked about the heirs since you got married?" ”

Zhu Yinzhou's heart was slightly paused, and then he listened to the queen continue: "Because Hanshuang doesn't want children, she has been taking the Child-Avoiding Decoction medicine. ”
