When Shen Lan was sixteen years old, he married the 14-year-old sixth princess Zhenyin.
Before the autumn of that year, the emperor issued an order to go hunting in the paddock this year. Everyone knew that this was to select a husband for the princess. So, all the young nobles in the capital came out in full force to win the honor of the Lord.
The eldest son of the prime minister's family has already married the third princess. Everyone is guessing that this time it will probably not be the turn of the prime minister's family. But Shen Huan disagrees. According to her, the second brother Shen Lan and Princess Zhen Yin are similar in age. Besides, before The second brother serves as the right guard in the East Palace. I'm afraid he can meet the princess from time to time. It's unknown whether they have a mutual affection for each other.
However, it is better to ask the person involved about this kind of thing
It rained last night, but this morning it cleared up after the rain. The breeze blew through the remaining lotuses, raising ripples in the blue wave pool. The water droplets on the remaining lotus rolled, swaying and dripped into the water patterns in circles.
Turning around the pond, he saw the second brother coming towards him from the corridor. He was dressed in white as snow, with wide sleeves facing the wind, and fluttering clothes. He was elegant. When he saw Shen Huan, he showed a gentle smile and raised his sword eyebrows, which made his eyes look like The cold pool is deep and beautiful
Shen Huan also smiled. The second brother didn't like to wear white clothes before, let alone wide sleeves. But Shen Huan always praised his eldest brother for his handsomeness and elegance in white clothes. He heard it so much that he also learned to wear white clothes. Wearing white clothes, he looks more free and uninhibited than his skinny elder brother.
Shen Wen was fascinated by his appearance in white clothes. She once praised him as "looking like Pan An, but better in appearance than Ji Kang" and said that he was like Ji Kang's "The rock is as independent as a solitary pine, and as majestic as a jade mountain that is about to collapse."
Although Shen Lan laughed after hearing this, from then on she was completely dressed in white and no longer wore two colors.
When Shen Lan approached, Shen Huan smiled and said: "This young master is so popular, good things must be coming soon!"
Shen Lan laughed and said, "Ah Huan, when did you learn to read faces?"
Shen Huan smiled and said: "Second brother, anyone can see such an obvious face."
Shen Lan deliberately pretended not to know and asked, "Oh? Why can't I see it?"
Shen Huan said: "Is it possible that you want to imitate that woman and look in the mirror all day long to see if you are lucky?"
The brother and sister looked at each other and then burst out laughing.
After laughing, Shen Huan asked seriously: "Second brother, do you like Princess Zhenyin and want to marry her?"
Shen Lan's eyes darkened and he said calmly: "Ah Huan thinks, so what if you like it? So what if you don't like it?"
Shen Huan sighed: "If the second brother likes it, you can give it a try this hunting and get the glory of the Lord; if the second brother doesn't like it, there is no need to go on this hunting."
Shen Lan smiled at her, but the smile was full of helplessness, and said: "Ah Huan, you are still young, and you don't know that in this world, you can't just do whatever you like."
Shen Wen pouted and said, "Why not? I just do whatever I like!"
Shen Lan laughed and said, "Silly sister, how many people in the world are there with such true temperament as you?"
Shen Huan was stunned, and Shen Lan added: "Besides, you are still young. When you grow up, will you still be so willful? Now you have your parents and brothers to protect you. One day we will no longer be here. Ah Hu, you How?"
Shen Huan heard what he said seriously and hurriedly said: "Brother, what are you talking about? Why are you all not here? Don't you want Ah Huan?"
Shen Lan was stunned and said: "It's not..."
Shen Huan was about to burst into tears and said, "Then you are not allowed to say this. I will be fooling around like this all day while you are here. If you are gone, I will follow you. You must not leave Ah Huan alone!"
Shen Lan sighed softly, stretched out his arms to hold her in his arms, and said softly: "Ah Huan, no matter what happens, my second brother will be by your side and will not abandon you."
Although I don’t know what my second brother is thinking, that year, the prime minister’s family still married Princess Zhenyin, and she became the most distinguished relative and powerful minister. Looking at the court, no family has such honor for a princess or a princess. , the two princes-in-law, looking at the affection between their youngest daughter and the princes, I am afraid that there will be another princess soon?
But, how else could we say "Misfortune lies on the back of good fortune, and good fortune lies on the back of misfortune"? When the Shen family was at its peak, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the prime minister became the head of the country, but overnight, he also became the leader of the hierarchy. Prisoners!
After counting the prime minister's crimes, the prisoner under the command quickly became a soul under the sword!
The only remaining members of the Shen family are Shen Lan and Shen Huan. One relies on the protection of Princess Zhenyin, and the other relies on the "mercy" of the new emperor.
Thinking of this, Shen Han burst into tears again. Second brother, second brother, are you still free and easy? Or are you trapped in house arrest and broken bones? Second brother, will you still be the Ji Zhongsan in Ah Huan's heart? No matter when, I will never abandon my good brother. There are only two of us left in this world!
