He doesn’t want to compete for a place in the court. He hates disputes and the unpredictable nature of people’s hearts.
In this Shen family, as long as there is one elder brother, it is fine.
Seeing his lonely expression, Shen Nanxiao reached out and patted his shoulder gently, "What are your plans next?"
Raising his head, Shen Jinzhao took a deep breath.
"I plan to go to the Jianghu. My brother knows that. Since I was a child, I have longed for the freedom and ease of the Jianghu knights wielding swords and traveling to the ends of the world. But in the future, I hope that my brother will take more care of Lulu. Her life is too hard."
"Before you leave, go say goodbye to her."
At least, don’t leave any regrets to yourself.
"Okay." Shen Jinzhao smiled with crooked eyebrows. He is still the warm and sunny second son of the Shen family, but his eyes have lost the original wantonness.
……
The misty rain pours on the low-hanging willow branches, and the swaying waves create moving ripples in the lake.
The clouds and smoke imbue the beauty of the willows in Qinghu Lake, the morning glow prompts the bright shadows of the peach blossoms on Su Di, and passers-by walk on the stone slabs, shaking off the smoke and dust.
In Qinghu Xiaozhu, Yin Luzhu raised his hand and poured a glass of wine for Shen Jinzhao, who was sitting across from him. The wine exuded a faint aroma of wine, lingering between the nostrils and lingering.
Shen Jinzhao picked up the wine in front of him and drank it all in one gulp, with a bitter smile on his face.
"Lulu, do you still remember the first time you drank?"
Yin Luzhu looked at him calmly and looked at the expectant light in his eyes. She nodded without any change in her expression.
"I remember it."
Shen Jinzhao slightly looked away from her and said to himself, "That year, you secretly came to Shen's house to play. It happened to be my father's birthday, and my mother brought out old spirits for him."
"The wine was green. You were curious, so you drank a big bowl. You were so drunk that you staggered around and fell into the doghouse, causing the rhubarb to curse and curse."
As he said that, Shen Jinzhao suddenly laughed, as if he missed those days.
"Do you remember that time?"
Yin Luzhu looked at him indifferently, with a smile that did not reach his eyes.
"That year, when you had just grown your hair, you begged me to take you to the temple. You said that you wanted to find a marriage for yourself, but the lots were drawn. They were drawn back and forth, and the numbers were always the same. You were so angry that you cried. , saying that she would definitely not be able to get married in the future. At that time, I also said, if no one marries you, then I will marry you."
"Hehehe." Shen Jinzhong laughed out loud, "This way, you won't cry anymore."
Yin Luzhu's long eyelashes trembled slightly.
She is not Yin Luzhu, just Fu Wansheng. She has never been involved in the past and Shen Jinzhao, and she cannot empathize with it.
From the time she was born, her father had been favored by the late emperor, and she was in the limelight. She was the legitimate daughter of a high family that was envied by everyone.
However, she is not happy.
She has seen her mother shed tears all day long because of her father's concubine since she was a child, and she has watched her father, who was deeply affectionate for her mother, protect the concubine in every possible way.
My mother also changed from the initial forbearance to hysteria like a demon.
There are always a lot of dissatisfaction in this deep house and compound. A copper lock can easily bury a woman's life.
A man's oath is always very vain. If you believe it in a moment of enthusiasm, you will be hurt.
Therefore, in this life, she only wants power and does not want to be a canary in someone's cage.
