In summer, the sound of cicadas can even be heard on the streets of Jiankang Prefecture.
The breeze blew the curtains with warmth, and Shen Jungao sat quietly on the waterside pavilion by the pond. There was a fishing rod beside his feet. The water in the pond was not turbid, but it was not clear how many swimmers there were. fish.
However, Shen Jungao's attention did not seem to be on the fishing rod. The fishing rod under his feet had been shaking several times. However, Shen Jungao was not in a hurry to lift it up. When he slowly reached out to grab the fishing rod, the fishing rod had already It stopped shaking, and it was obvious that the fish that had bitten the hook had broken free.
Shen Jungao didn't care about this, but he still lifted the fishing rod leisurely, hung the ear food again and threw it into the water.
"Is Mr. Shen fishing or feeding the fish?" The footsteps were accompanied by a pleasant voice. Princess Lechang did not know when she appeared behind Shen Jungao. She should have been watching here for a while, otherwise she would not know. Shen Jungao is so leisurely.
Shen Jungao didn't even raise his head, and he knew who was coming by the voice. There were many princesses in the Nanchen royal family, but Lechang's voice was probably the nicest one, so Shen Jungao was very impressed: "Your Highness is also very interested, and he even came to the East Palace. come from the garden.”
Lechang was not surprised by Shen Jungao's somewhat rude behavior. Shen Jungao was used to it, and he was an out-and-out relative of the royal family, so it was reasonable not to be polite. What's more, Shen Jungao was a junior member of the royal family. Teacher Enlightenment, if the discussion really comes up, Princess Lechang will have to salute him.
"Brother Huang never likes to come to this garden, which has led to many places here being abandoned. It's really a pity," Lechang couldn't help but sigh. "Only this circle of water pavilions is left for viewing and leisure. You can come and walk around at your leisure. It’s okay to go.”
Shen Jungao turned his head and glanced at Lechang in surprise. It seems that Shen Jungao has not seen His Majesty Lechang since the promulgation of His Majesty's imperial edict. Today is the first time. His Majesty's edict is very abrupt. To put it bluntly, To be honest, even Shen Jungao didn't expect that this time His Majesty would be willing to use His Royal Highness Lechang, the apple of his eye, as the biggest bargaining chip. But at least for now, Li Xingchen is still very satisfied with this condition.
But no one would want to make themselves a condition of the treaty, let alone a woman like Le Chang who has been arrogant since she was a child. Even if Shen Jungao knew that she and Li Xingchen had always had a secret relationship, this time It is unlikely that Lechang would be happy and accept the grievances between the country and the country.
As if he didn't want Shen Jungao to continue talking about this topic, Lechang looked at Shen Jungao's fishing rod curiously: "This pond has not been cleaned for a while. There are probably a lot of fish in the pond, but Mr. Shen I’m afraid I won’t be able to catch a single fish this way.”
"I fish just to enjoy the process," Shen Jungao said with a smile. "I'm afraid this fish will have to be released after being caught, so it's better to just let it break free. Being able to escape from this hook means that It is also a tenacious life.”
Lechang was slightly stunned, and Shen Jungao sighed softly: "In this troubled world, all those who struggle to find a way, especially the idle people..."
Before Lechang could speak, Shen Jungao pointed his finger at the calm water: "This pond looks calm and waveless, but who knows how many undercurrents there are underneath. Anyone who can dominate this pond will definitely not be weak.
Incompetent, the big fish eats the small fish, and the small fish has no way out, how cruel and true. I really can’t imagine what kind of changes will happen if this pond is given a storm..."
The book in Lechang's hand almost fell to the ground. She frowned slightly and stared closely at Shen Jungao. Lechang was a very smart woman, so of course she understood what Shen Jungao meant.
The smoke of gunfire is like smoke, and in troubled times, it is the time when heroes emerge in large numbers. Once there is a good opportunity, there will naturally be heroes who have already emerged and step into the forefront, leading the rolling trend of the entire world.
Nowadays, the country of Nanchen is in turmoil, and the internal fighting between the court and the public in the Northern Zhou Dynasty is becoming more and more obvious. These two behemoths have shown their decline due to the long-term confrontation and war. Maybe ordinary people don't care about what is happening, but anyone with a little courage can see it.
Come out, things are going to change today, and this time the trend will no longer be dominated by Nan Chen or Northern Zhou.
A new generation is rising, and the most eye-catching one now is probably the young man in Bashu.
Thinking of the person he admired and longed for, his future husband, Lechang felt a little dazed. And Shen Jungao laughed softly. Lechang came to the East Palace at this time. Of course, he didn't believe that he simply wanted to relax.
You must know that the back garden in the imperial palace is better than half of the decadent ones in the East Palace.
Obviously, Lechang was also keenly aware of all the weirdness in the whirlpool that had appeared, but now she was already in the whirlpool. Even if she realized something was wrong, it was no longer possible to escape.
Shen Jungao looked at Lechang with pity. The girl's figure in the wind was a little thin.
Shen Jungao didn't know if it was cruel to fall in love with someone he shouldn't love, but he knew that at least now Lechang was caught between Li Xingchen and Chen Xu, which was very unfair to this girl who had done nothing wrong. However, this kind of unfairness
No one can change fairness.
Children of the royal family may not be able to enjoy the honors brought by royal titles when they are born, but they must be ready to sacrifice for the entire dynasty at any time.
They are not victims, but they may become victims at any time. While enjoying the respect of everyone, the children of the royal family also have to bear too many hardships and grievances.
"I hope no royal family will be born in the next life." Shen Jungao murmured.
Lechang didn't hear clearly what Shen Jungao said, or rather she hadn't recovered from what Shen Jungao just said, so she asked in surprise: "Mr. Shen, what did you say..."
"Mr. Shen!" At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded, and Fu Yi came over panting - now compared to Fu Yi, Shen Jungao seems to be more like a Buddhist who is independent of the world and sees through the world -
- Of course, Fu Yi didn't have the leisure to care about these details now. Only then did he see Lechang standing behind Shen Jungao, "Ah, His Highness is here too. I am polite to you."
But before Lechang could return the gift, Fu Yi forced a piece of paper into Shen Jungao's hand. When Shen Jungao was about to grab it, the fishing rod under his feet began to shake again.
This time Shen Jungao didn't even lower his body to grab the fishing rod, because the words on the paper made him no longer interested in those things.
