Chapter 106: Jade Pot Light Turns
Shen Jiasui spent the entire afternoon with Zhao Huaizhen and Tuoba Ning.
Tuoba Ning was very positive about choosing a son-in-law.
She spent the whole afternoon dragging Shen Jiasui and Zhao Huaizhen to various occasions, and saw almost all the young talents in the capital.
As for Zhao Huaizhen, she was much more lazy and rarely even raised her eyelids when she met someone. She only became energetic when she saw her own brother.
"elder brother!"
Zhao Huaizhen waved towards the attic opposite.
Over there is the chess tower. Zhao Huaizhang, the son of Prince Rong, is standing by the window. He seems to be concentrating on watching the game of chess. He is wearing a lake blue brocade robe.
Hearing the call, Zhao Huaizhang turned around and saw three girls standing by the railing.
When the eldest princess returned to the capital that day, Zhao Huaizhang had met his foreign cousin Tuoba Ning. But now the only thing he didn't recognize was the girl on his sister's left.
But he quickly guessed the girl's identity.
Ever since the last flower-viewing banquet, my sister has often mentioned a girl, saying that without her, the Prince Rong’s Mansion would be in big trouble.
He also kept praising the girl for her fearlessness in the face of danger and her great martial arts skills.
Zhao Huaizhang thought so as he stood by the window and bowed to the person opposite him.
On this side, Shen Jiasui hurriedly knelt down to return the greeting.
This was her first time meeting Prince Rong.
I remember Huai Zhen once said that it was Prince Zhao who stopped Prince Xiang who was poisoned by the foul drug in time on the day of the flower viewing banquet, so as to prevent a greater disaster.
Zhao Huaizhen smiled brightly, and suddenly his eyes rolled between Zhao Huaizhang and Shen Jiasui, and an idea came to his mind.
But she had many concerns in her heart. She didn't expect that at this time, her brother made a gesture to her and turned around and left the chess building.
Shen Jiasui couldn't help but think of Emperor Sheng's joke at Zhuhua Pavilion this morning. He frowned and whispered:
"Huaizhen, Ning'er, I'm going to change my clothes first and come back to see you later."
After she finished speaking, she turned and left, but Zhao Huaizhen held her back.
It turned out that Prince Zhao had already left the chess tower and was walking towards this side.
Zhao Huaizhen smiled and said, "Jia Sui, wait a minute. I'll go with you after I talk to my brother."
Tuoba Ning also joined in the fun, "Then I'll go there later too."
Shen Jiasui: “…”
At this time, Zhao Huaizhang had already gone up to the attic. Shen Jiasui thought about it and moved quietly behind Zhao Huaizhen and Tuoba Ning.
Zhao Huaizhang walked onto the corridor with a smile on his face, and Zhao Huaizhen and Tuoba Ning immediately came to greet him.
Zhao Huaizhen grabbed his brother's hand and said impatiently: "Brother, this is the Jiasui I always told you about!"
Shen Jiasui lowered his head slightly, and at this time he had no choice but to step forward and said, "Meet Prince Zhao."
Zhao Huaizhang's gaze gently fell on Shen Jiasui.
Although he had guessed Shen Jiasui's identity, it was hard for him to imagine that such a girl who looked even a bit thin was actually the man with strength as an ox mentioned by his sister.
He bowed solemnly and said sincerely, "Miss Shen, I have told you everything about that day. I didn't have the chance to see you before, but I am always grateful in my heart."
"Now, Miss Shen, please accept my greetings from Zhao Huaizhang."
As Zhao Huaizhang spoke, he bent down deeply and saluted towards Shen Jiasui.
Shen Jiasui was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly took two steps forward, raised his hand and said, "Prince Zhao, there is no need to do this, please get up quickly!"
A purple skirt broke into Zhao Huaizhang's lowered field of vision. Perhaps the person was too eager, the skirt swayed and swayed like cloud shadows.
He slowly stood up and looked up, and was caught off guard by a pair of bright eyes.
After just one glance, Zhao Huaizhang looked away.
He and Shen Jiasui retreated almost at the same time, putting some distance between themselves.
Zhao Huaizhen came forward at this time. As expected, she just spoke a few words to her brother, then took Shen Jiasui and Tuoba Ning by the hand and walked downstairs.
Zhao Huaizhang stood there and watched the three of them leave, with a complicated look in his eyes.
He didn't have to come, but he couldn't hide his curiosity and wanted to meet the "incredibly wonderful" girl his sister mentioned.
It can be seen that it is just adding to the regret.
Miss Shen is really good.
But General Dingguo's Mansion...is something he cannot touch.
If it was my father who ascended the throne...
As soon as this thought came to mind, Zhao Huaizhang's expression changed slightly.
He quickly calmed down, looked around casually, and then went downstairs from the other side with a calm expression.
In the dark, someone saw everything that happened here, and then left quietly...
————
It gets dark early in the capital city in December, and all kinds of colorful lanterns are lit up early in the imperial garden, making everywhere as bright as day.
The dinner time was approaching, and people gathered in groups of three or four and flocked to Baohua Hall, the largest banquet hall in the imperial garden.
From afar, melodious music can be heard, the bright moon hangs high over Baohua Lake, and colorful lights surround it. It is truly "the sound of phoenix flute moves, and the light of jade pot turns."
Amidst the noise——
"elder sister!"
Shen Jiasui walked through the crowd and looked up. Shen Jiaheng's eyes were bright and he was waving at her desperately.
Shen Jiasui curled his lips and waved his hand. Suddenly, a crowd of people gathered in front and walked towards the Baohua Lake, naturally revealing the other person next to Shen Jiaheng.
He had already changed into his usual dark brocade robe and was standing still, also casting his gaze over.
It was exactly the hour of You.
Bang, bang, bang——
The fireworks on the shelf beside Baohua Lake were lit. Amid cheers, the lights rose to the low sky and then bloomed one after another.
Everyone's eyes were drawn to the performance, and exclamations and cheers mixed with the music could be heard everywhere.
Shen Jiasui didn't move.
Jiang Xun didn't move either.
Amid the bustling crowd and under the fireworks in the night, the two people's eyes vaguely intertwined.
Shen Jiasui saw that the fireworks were like thousands of stars, falling behind him.
At this moment, she seemed to see an unprecedented gentleness on Lord Jiang's face, with a smile and joy.
Bang, bang, bang——
For a moment, Shen Jiasui couldn't even tell whether this was the sound of fireworks breaking free from their restraints and blooming in the sky, or his own heart escaping control and beating wildly.
She opened her mouth, as if bewitched, and silently called out: "Master Jiang..."
She had called him Lord Jiang countless times in the mud and desperate situations.
Even on her deathbed, when she saw the red edge of the dress, her last words in the world were: "Master Jiang..."
These three words have been engraved into her bones and blood, and have accompanied her through the most desperate and helpless moments.
Fireworks fell like rain.
Jiang Xun was so focused that he understood Shen Jiasui's silent words in an instant.
She stood in the noisy crowd and called him softly - Lord Jiang.
At this moment, my heart feels soft and indescribable.
He has been in this world for ten years...
The past ten years were mostly dark and difficult, and it was his teacher and the Crown Prince who pulled and pushed him time and time again, helping him to get to where he is today.
And in the tenth year after he had given up hope, she appeared.
It was so dazzling and warm that it left the most delicate touches in his heart, so that he crossed the distance he had set for himself again and again and involuntarily moved closer to her.
He became more greedy.
He was no longer content to just watch her from a distance.
He didn't want to call her Miss Shen in a distant way, he also wanted to call her softly -
Jiang Xun had just opened his mouth when drums suddenly sounded from all directions. The crowd turned around instantly and headed towards the Baohua Palace.
Shen Jiasui's sight was blocked by the crowd, so she didn't see Jiang Xun whispering so gently and cherishingly:
"Years old."
