Zhou Zhi said to Zhou Heng: "Brother, I want to sit in your palace for a meeting. Will you welcome me?"
Zhou Heng smiled: "Of course."
Su Xiaoling held Su Xiaolu's hand and said helplessly: "Xiaolu, you can't do this next time, you know? My sister is living a good life in the palace, don't worry about me."
Su Xiaoling knew that Su Xiaolu took the risk to see her because he was worried about her.
But sneaking into the palace is no small matter. What if you are discovered and treated as an assassin?
After entering the palace, Su Xiaoling also experienced some things. She knew that the palace was not that simple, nor was it as peaceful as it seemed on the surface. There were too many dangers lurking in the dark. She did not want Su Xiaolu to do anything dangerous.
Involved in danger.
Su Xiaolu nodded: "I won't do it next time."
Seeing that Su Xiaoling was well, she felt relieved.
After returning to the palace, Su Xiaoling dismissed the maids, leaving only Dou Fu and Fenxiang guarding outside the palace.
The two sisters talked a lot, and when Dou Fu knocked on the door to remind her, Su Xiaoling took Su Xiaolu's hand and sent her out.
"Sister, goodbye."
Su Xiaolu hugged Su Xiaoling, and then left with Zhou Zhi.
Su Xiaoling watched their backs fading away, thinking a lot.
Zhou Heng gently held Su Xiaoling's shoulders and said softly: "Don't worry, I will take you out of the palace as soon as possible."
Only after leaving the palace would there be no complicated palace rules restricting Su Xiaoling's travel. At that time, she could go home anytime she wanted.
Su Xiaoling nodded: "I'm fine. Take everything slowly and don't be in a hurry. Brother Heng, I don't want you to be too tired or hard."
"With Xiaolu's temperament, I really don't know what kind of man can walk side by side with her in the future."
Zhou Heng smiled and sighed softly.
"I also hope that Xiaolu likes people with strong martial arts skills. Maybe she will meet them after she leaves home and travels around the world."
Su Xiaoling leaned on Zhou Heng's shoulder and said with a soft smile.
"Does she like men with strong martial arts skills?"
Zhou Heng's eyes were thoughtful, Xiaolu liked men with strong martial arts skills, so wouldn't Azhi...
Zhou Zhi's thoughts were very deep, but when he looked at Su Xiaolu, the affection in his eyes could not be deceived, even if he showed it for a moment.
"Yeah, I asked her before, and that's what she said. Thinking about Master Guiyou's coolness, and the master has always asked Xiaolu to go out and practice more, I think what she said is true. She
He loves liveliness so much and has a restless temper. In the future, people with similar interests will not be able to survive without martial arts and liveliness."
Su Xiaoling said with a smile, she couldn't stop smiling when talking about Su Xiaolu.
Her sister will definitely have her dream and live a happy life in the future.
Zhou Heng sighed in his heart.
There was a faint feeling of distress in my heart. Su Xiaolu would like it, but Zhou Zhi didn't.
The regret of losing this love will accompany Zhou Zhi throughout his life, and Zhou Zhi still doesn't know the outcome. As his elder brother, Zhou Heng feels very sad.
——
"Thank you."
After leaving the palace, Su Xiaolu thanked Zhou Zhi. If it weren't for Zhou Zhi, she wouldn't have had the chance to stay with Su Xiaoling for so long.
Zhou Zhi smiled and said gently: "You're welcome, I owe you a lot more than this."
"Are you not used to entering the palace rashly?"
Zhou Zhi asked softly. He knew that Su Xiaolu was brought up under Su Xiaoling's care, and he also knew that the sisters had slept together for so many years. The relationship between the two sisters was too deep.
When Su Xiaoling got married, the person who was least used to it was Su Xiaolu.
Su Xiaolu nodded. She was indeed not used to it. She often couldn't sleep for so many nights.
"I'm afraid that my sister will have a bad life, but there are many rules in the palace, so I can only come and take a look secretly."
Su Xiaolu expressed her worries. She glanced at Zhou Zhi, smiled and said, "Thank you today, I'm going home first."
Su Xiaolu walked a few steps and then stopped. She turned back, smiled, raised her hand and said, "Happy New Year."
Zhou Zhi also smiled: "Xiaolu, happy New Year."
Watching Su Xiaolu leave, the smile in Zhou Zhi's eyes lingered for a long time.
He looked up at the sky. Something cool fell on his face. He raised his hand to catch it. It was snowing.
Big snowflakes fell, and the corners of Zhou Zhi's lips slightly raised.
This year, it's really good.
Su Xiaolu walked on the busy street, bought some snacks, and walked slowly home.
Because of the snow, people are very happy, and they are saying, "Auspicious snow heralds a good harvest."
Su Xiaolu thought that next year would be a good year because there would be more spiritual energy in the air.
If the spiritual energy is full, the crops in the field will surely grow happily.
She has decided that after Su Hua gets married, she will leave Beijing and visit Qinghai.
Since the white fish appeared, she had thought about countless possibilities, but they were all gradually overturned.
The changes in the world may not be as drastic as she thought. This change may be just a gradual change, and it may take many years for people to realize it.
But it will take time to prove what it will be like.
On the first day of the new year, Sun Baoqian and Su Hua returned to Sun's house.
Mrs. Zhao sighed softly, if Su Xiaoling had married into an ordinary family, she would have returned to her parents' home today.
After the New Year, life returned to normal.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Su Xiaolu received a letter from Old Man Wu.
She couldn't wait to open it, wanting to see if Old Man Wu would bring her any new news.
The old man told about the whirlpool in the letter.
This is what the letter said.
Girl, your Master Guiyou and I went out to sea to see where the white fish came from, but there were officers and soldiers guarding that sea area, and they were stingy and didn’t allow anyone to get close. Hehe, this is not a problem for your smart master.
, two packets of medicine will take effect.
As soon as the master turned over, he became their savior. Of course, the benefactor wanted to take a look at the sea, but they were not allowed to touch the fish. The master just wanted to see where this thing came from, but in fact, there was nothing interesting to see.
It's just a big whirlpool.
The master doesn’t know how to swim. Your master Guiyu dived and took a look. He said there were many fish and there were also big whirlpools on the bottom of the sea. Other than that, there was nothing special. However, your master Guiyou observed many times and said that the whirlpool was gradually getting bigger.
It gets smaller, and the white fish...are so plentiful.
There is something wonderful about that white fish, it seems to come out of a whirlpool, but I can't see clearly what's in the whirlpool.
If you are interested, you can come to Qinghai and see for yourself. The master will have to live here for half a year this year to see if there will be any other changes in this white fish. Continue to think about it, that's it.
Su Xiaolu finished reading the letter, closed the paper and put it away. She was going to reply to Old Man Wu, but she didn't move the pen after picking up the pen. She watched the ink fall into a big ball on the paper, so she put it away again, but still didn't write the letter.
, she will go there in person when the time comes.
On the twentieth day of the first lunar month, Zhou Zhi sent a letter saying that he had left Beijing.
On the twenty-fourth day of the first lunar month, Su Chong's position was also reduced. He was the eighth-rank Xuangjie captain. He was currently a sinecure and could be moved wherever needed.
On the second day of February, Su Chong got married.
