Chapter 43 Chapter 43 She doesn’t love Shen Jingzhan but likes to have sex with him…
Let her persuade Shen Jingzhan not to live in another mansion?
Whenever Old Lady Shen mentioned this matter, Shen Jingzhan choked her back. Zhu Yinluan was not surprised that Madam Shen found the Shi family in a roundabout way.
She had been with Shen Jingzhan for the past two days, and Mrs. Shen couldn't take advantage of the situation, so it was understandable that she asked Shen Xiyun to persuade her.
The day before yesterday, she noticed that Madam Shen hesitated to speak when she looked at her.
What she wanted to talk about was not the affairs of the Zhu family and the Wei family, but the fact that she and Shen Jingzhan were going to move away, which was the first possibility she guessed.
After coming back to her senses, Zhu Yinluan breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. At least it was not those messy things between the Zhu and Wei families.
Although she has now successfully married Shen Jingzhan, she is no longer afraid of pressure from the Zhu and Wei families.
But her natal family and her former husband's family are like a sharp blade hanging over her head. If they fall, they will shatter her current peaceful and harmonious days and bring out her damp, dark and invisible past.
Those four years were so difficult. Even though she has gotten out of it, when she thinks back on it, she is still overwhelmed by the suffocating feeling of enduring too much.
She never forgot those difficult days and nights, but just kept them deep in her heart.
"Luan'er, what do you think?" Seeing her silence, Chen Xiyun asked her what she meant.
"I……"
have no idea……
Zhu Yinluan knew very well that her only support in the Shen family was Shen Jingzhan, but if she relied entirely on Shen Jingzhan and did not contact or maintain good relationships with the Shen family, it would definitely not work.
Even if they are just allies...
Once a marriage between a man and a woman is established, it is not just as simple as mutual affection and love. Besides, there is no such affection between her and Shen Jingzhan, only interests.
If something unexpected happens in the future, there will be no way out - for example, Shen Jingzhan no longer needs her as an ally, and she is divorced by the Shen family.
That would be a real disaster. After all, the Shen family has such a high status. If it really comes to that, they might have to leave the capital to gain a foothold.
These days, she was immersed in the nervousness of entering the Shen family for the first time, and indulged in the thrilling emotions with Shen Jingzhan at night. She was only thinking about how to deal with the old mother who came to eavesdrop, and she forgot to think about herself.
Now that she has entered the Shen family, perhaps she can rely on the Shen family to gain a foothold in the capital?
It’s a little difficult to do this, but... I can’t just do it without any plan. As for now, let’s just take it one step at a time.
After thinking about it, her mind became a little clearer, but she didn't know what to do. The people in the Shen family were not easy to approach, and they were all cunning.
"I wanted to move out before, but now I'm afraid..."
Madam Shen has already asked Shen Xiyun to persuade Shen Jingzhan.
If she still insisted on moving out, wouldn’t she offend Madam Shen and Old Lady Shen?
"Mother...what do you mean?" she asked Shen Xiyun.
Chen Xiyun told her, "Your mother-in-law said that after Jing Zhan passed the imperial examination, he became busy with court affairs and gradually came home less and less. Now he is often out."
"He is the eldest son of the eldest branch of the family, and the heir of the Marquisate. It will not work if he is away all the time."
That’s indeed the case, Zhu Yinluan didn’t say anything.
Shen Jingzhan will inherit the title eventually.
If he wanted to inherit the title, he had to stay in the Marquis Zhaoping's mansion.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yinluan suddenly felt fantastic. If nothing unexpected had happened between her and Shen Jingzhan when Shen Jingzhan inherited the title, would she have been the Marquis's wife?
How could she, a concubine's daughter, have such virtue?
Although thinking so in her heart, Zhu Yinluan still didn't reveal it.
Chen Xiyun continued, "Whether I talk to your mother-in-law about this matter depends on what you and Jing Zhan think. I'm afraid I can't get a say."
Having said that, Shen Xiyun did not raise any opinions on whether or not they should move out.
She knew very well that although Zhu Yinluan had a gentle personality, she was actually very tough and could make her own decisions, unlike her three biological daughters.
Sure enough, after she finished speaking, Zhu Yinluan said, "My daughter understands."
"Yeah." Having said that, Shen Xiyun did not say anything more about the matter.
Zhu Yinluan originally wanted to ask about the Zhu and Wei families, but she felt that it was not a good idea to let Chen Xiyun pay attention to the movements of her former mother's family, so she simply kept silent.
Forget it, when the enemy comes, we will fight him; when the water comes, we will block it with earth.
After leaving Shi's house, it was already very late.
Shen Jingzhan flipped through the policy papers for a while in the carriage. When they reached the main road in Beijing, he put down the book in his hand and asked her if she wanted to go out for a walk.
Zhu Yinluan was still distracted and was stunned for a moment.
"Isn't there a curfew in the capital?"
She seldom goes out after dinner time. It must be past curfew now, right?
"Luan'er, follow me, nothing will happen." He assured her and told her that the Dragon Boat Festival was approaching and the curfew time in the capital had been changed.
"Okay." Zhu Yinluan nodded.
The capital city was bright at night, with lanterns and candles hung on the eaves and corners of the houses.
The shops everywhere were still very busy and almost full of people.
Although the Dragon Boat Festival has not yet arrived, many shops have already prepared Dragon Boat Festival-related snacks.
"Luan'er, do you want to eat?" He noticed her eyes moving around.
Zhu Yinluan shook her head, "I'm not hungry yet."
Even though she said she was not hungry, Shen Jingzhan still asked his followers to buy some and put them in the carriage, saying that she could try them on the way back.
Shen Jingzhan was very generous to her. Not only generous, she just glanced at him almost imperceptibly and paused slightly.
He was actually able to notice that she was interested in the Dragon Boat Festival snacks. His attentiveness was astonishing.
Is this the terror of someone who can follow the emperor and issue imperial orders?
In addition, she also thought that in the past, when she had just married into the Wei family, she had also traveled with Wei Ruzhuo. It was the annual temple fair in the capital, which she had never seen before.
At that time, everything she saw was new and interesting, but he paid no attention to the interest he showed in her and never bought her anything.
He also thought that she was a concubine's daughter who had never seen the world and had no sense of propriety, so he told her not to look around when she was outside, so as not to make a fool of herself.
Zhu Yinluan, who was scolded at that time, felt embarrassed and felt so sad that she wanted to cry. Not to mention that she felt uncomfortable at that time, she still felt wronged when she thought about it now.
From then on, she forced herself to be dignified, contented, virtuous and obedient.
She had always learned and done everything Wei Ruzhuo wanted a legal wife to do, but in the end, even though she had done it, he despised her for being dull, boring and uninteresting.
Just as he was daydreaming, he was suddenly pulled into Shen Jingzhan's arms.
Zhu Yinluan was startled when she bumped into the man's broad and strong chest, "..."
She saw the candied haws brushing against her eyes. If Shen Jingzhan hadn't pulled her over, she would have bumped into...
The peddler apologized quickly, "I'm sorry, my lady and my husband! I was looking out for the carriage and not paying attention to the people behind me." The peddler apologized repeatedly and compensated the two with two strings of candied haws.
Shen Jingzhan took the candied haws and wanted to give the vendor money, but the vendor said he wanted nothing and that he was giving them the food to calm them down.
Finally, Shen Jingzhan only asked for a string of candied haws and asked Zhu Yinluan to eat it.
"You...don't want to?"
Zhu Yinluan was still protected in Shen Jingzhan's arms. With her pupils still open from the shock, she stared in amazement at the rosy candy in front of her that glowed with honey.
But he didn't notice that not far away, the peddler walked away and turned into the alley. Shen Jingzhan's followers who had been waiting in the alley handed him a bag of purses and praised him for what he had just done.
The peddler nodded and bowed, holding his purse with a smile on his face. "Thank you for your compliment, if there is such a job in the future, just call me humble servant!"
“…”
"Luan'er eats first."
Zhu Yinluan came back to her senses, got out of his arms and stood up, suppressing the unnatural expression on her face and putting on a serious look.
She looked around, hesitated for a long time, and finally took a bite of the candied haws.
This candied haws is too big, I can't bite it off in one bite, and it's even a little hard.
Thinking that she was outside, even if Shen Jingzhan didn't mind, she would always be careful.
So Zhu Yinluan just licked it lightly like a kitten licking a bowl and didn't eat any more.
She was concentrating on the candied haws, not noticing how deep the man's eyes were as he watched her every move.
After a long time, she raised her eyes and saw him staring at her. His expression was puzzled, but also pure and attractive, as if asking him what he was looking at.
She thought her lips were stained with sesame seeds sprinkled on the candied haws, so she not only licked it with the tip of her tongue, but also reached out her hand to touch it, but she didn't touch anything.
But Shen Jingzhan kept looking at her.
Just as she was about to ask directly, the man had already looked away. He said, "There are many people around at night, should I take Luan'er with me?" He let her continue eating the candied haws.
"never mind……"
Shen Jingzhan's appearance and figure were too eye-catching. He attracted a lot of attention when he was with her. If we walked hand in hand...
Although the two had already gotten married, it was not appropriate to do it in public, so she refused.
"I'll be careful and follow—"
your.
Before she could finish her words, the man grabbed her hand and pulled her towards him.
It turned out that a young child was stumbling past, holding a slingshot and a Lu Ban lock in his hands.
The child was so short that she didn't notice at all...
Zhu Yinluan's hand was held tightly by the man's big hand. This time she was caught off guard and the candied haws in her hand almost fell. She hurriedly reached out to grab it.
She did catch it, but the candied haws stuck to Shen Jingzhan's moon-white brocade clothes, and even her hands were dirty, all covered with sugar stains.
Zhu Yinluan didn't expect that the slap in the face would come so quickly.
It was so embarrassing that she wanted to help him wipe it, but her hands were also dirty.
The man chuckled, Zhu Yinluan blushed, she bit her lips lightly and looked up at him.
But she bumped into the man's gentle and smiling handsome eyes, and was too embarrassed to lower her head, "..."
Even when she returned to the Marquis' Mansion, the blush on Zhu Yinluan's face could not be removed.
Seeing that her face remained red for a long time, Mingya thought that she had eaten something inappropriate and asked her what was wrong with her.
She subconsciously looked at Shen Jingzhan, who had a faint smile on his face.
They kept the conversation to themselves tacitly.
Mingya noticed something strange between his master and his wife, but did not get to the bottom of it.
Perhaps because of the incident during the day, Zhu Yinluan always felt that when Shen Jingzhan kissed her today, he was more ferocious than before.
And right from the start he kissed her lips without stopping anywhere else.
His large palm was placed on the side of her face, controlling her.
Zhu Yinluan couldn't turn her head left or right and could only be forced to endure his kiss.
He kissed her lips for a long time, gradually moving deeper.
But when he touched the inside, he had already kissed her until she was out of breath, but he didn't forget to stop and ask her, "Is it okay?"
Zhu Yinluan's nose tip touched his nose tip.
She hummed softly, her face flushed like a peach.
Shen Jingzhan looked at her for a while, then suddenly pinched her waist and turned her around.
Zhu Yinluan was startled.
In the blink of an eye, she was already on Shen Jingzhan's body, looking down at him condescendingly.
Because he has been practicing martial arts for many years, there is not a trace of fat on his waist and abdomen, and it can be said to be hard.
The undershirt was so thin that she hardly dared to move for fear of touching something she dared not touch.
Why did he suddenly turn her around and let her be on top?
Zhu Yinluan wanted to get off, but the man's two big hands were pinching her waist. If she wanted to get off, she had to ask him to let go first.
She lowered her eyes to avoid the man, but he was right under her nose and she could see him no matter what.
She saw the man's chest under his open shirt, his deep collarbone, and his profile.
"What are you doing?" she asked in a low voice.
Before she finished speaking, Shen Jingzhan moved his waist and abdomen. He seemed to be just moving, but she fell down and lay on him.
Her lips brushed across his thin lips.
Without any extra words, he found her lips and kissed her.
He continued the interrupted kiss.
After the kiss, Zhu Yinluan finally understood why he changed positions.
Because he wanted her to take the lead, he gave her control.
This really makes Zhu Yinluan feel safe.
After her clumsy but slow response, Shen Jingzhan continued to kiss her, hooking her to kiss her, and even imitating her.
It's just that he is a better kisser than her. Compared with Shen Jingzhan and Xue, Zhu Yinluan felt the shortcomings of her kissing skills.
It’s not her fault. She and Wei Ruzhuo rarely kissed.
They kissed her at first, but she was very scared and didn't dare to respond. Wei Ruzhuo had no patience and gradually the kiss became less and less. He only cared about his own pleasure and never took care of her.
Zhu Yinluan felt shame about love at first, and later it was painful, but she had to do it in order to have a child.
But following Shen Jingzhan, she rarely felt the joy of performing the Zhougong ritual.
I also gradually understood why some men would linger in places of fireworks seeking fun.
In the dim curtains, the sound of the two people kissing could be heard.
As he gradually got into the groove, Zhu Yinluan's breath became short and he would pause from time to time. Over and over again, Zhu Yinluan slowly learned how to breathe.
The man's big hand followed the edge and climbed up the beautiful spring mountain.
The moment she clenched her fist, Zhu Yinluan couldn't help herself.
She burst into sobs.
This went on for several days in a row, and the maids outside couldn't help but sigh that the two of them were so sweet to each other.
Previously, I thought that the eldest son was not interested in women, but when he met the girl from the Zhu family, he actually pestered her to have fun every night, and every day they would make a fuss for a long time.
“…”
Zhu Yinluan lowered her eyes and saw the man's thin lips kissing the spring mountain made of snow.
Shen Jingzhan should have been giving advice and commands in the court, but now he was kissing her.
He was doing just that, and there was no trace of lust, or of the ugly impatience that filled his face.
Perhaps it was because he was so handsome, with eyebrows and eyes as beautiful as a jade man in a painting, a gentleman on the dais.
But this handsome man like a jade man in a painting, a gentleman on the altar, was defeated by her clothes and skirt.
Zhu Yinluan couldn't help but burst into tears.
The delicate and white hand as fresh onion grasped the man's arm, and the nails slid across the winding blue veins on the man's arm, leaving shallow scratches.
She felt a tingling sensation in her bones, and when his lips withdrew from hers, she even wanted to chase after him and let him kiss her again.
Zhu Yinluan didn’t know what was wrong with her.
She obviously didn't like Shen Jingzhan. She didn't love him, but she liked to be close to him.
He kissed her so comfortably, and he was very considerate of her feelings and observed her every move.
But he stuck to his guns and just lingered outside the Chunshan Gate, refusing to go beyond the line.
“…”
It was the same on this day, just in a different location.
Zhu Yinluan's lower back was in a mess.
There is him, and there is her.
Can't tell one from the other.
She was exhausted.
The whole person lay in his arms, dying and gasping for breath.
The two men's clothes were not completely removed.
But spring is everywhere.
If someone saw me, who would believe that I never took that step?
Zhu Yinluan listened to his heartbeat.
This time it was clearer than last time, her ear was right over his heart.
Is it because she also heard Shen Jingzhan’s heartbeat yesterday?
She felt that the sound of his heartbeat was very familiar.
She was so tired that her brain didn't want to work anymore. She only knew that it was familiar, but she couldn't trace the source of the familiarity.
Zhu Yinluan closed her eyes while thinking and slowly fell asleep.
I completely forgot about leaving his arms. The show was over, and it was time for us to "part ways" and sleep separately.
After a long time, the man lowered his eyes and looked at the girl's obedient face, then closed his eyes and felt her breathing gradually calming down.
He raised his hand and touched her peaceful little face, stroking her soft earlobe.
A satisfied smile gradually appeared on his handsome face.
Well...she was becoming less and less defensive against him.
After several days of investigation, the Zhu family got the exact news.
The adopted daughter of the Shi family and the one who married into the Shen family was indeed Zhu Yinluan.
It was Zhu Yinluan who was kicked out by the Wei and Zhu families and severed all ties with them.
Inside the main hall, no one in the Zhu family spoke, each of them was thinking about their own ideas.
Compared to Zhu Chentan's anger, Lord Zhu was only excited. For the first time, he took his concubine's daughter seriously in his heart.
Unexpectedly, after she left the Wei family, she was able to climb up to the Shen family quietly.
Having the son-in-law of the Shen family as his son-in-law is more than just a face-saving thing to say. If Shen Jingzhan calls him father-in-law in front of others, he will have everything!
Wouldn't the officials who used to look down on him come over and take the initiative to talk to him and make friends with him?
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. Lord Zhu's face turned red, and he hurriedly asked Madam Zhu to quickly send someone to deliver a letter to Zhu Yinluan, asking her to bring Shen Jingzhan back to the Zhu family, meet her relatives, have a meal, have a good chat, and get closer.
As soon as Zhu Chentan saw Lord Zhu's enthusiastic face, which completely disregarded her feelings, resentment emerged in her heart.
That little bitch Zhu Yinluan, once married into a wealthy family, she managed to win my father away without even showing her face.
Zhu Chentan wanted to smash the cup and bowl, but he couldn't...
Because Mrs. Zhu had told her in advance to calm down, and her future career and marriage still depended on Zhu Yinluan, she could not make a fuss anywhere. Not only that, she also had to find ways to get in touch with her.
That was her half-sister whom she had looked down upon since she was a child, and now she was asked to please her? !
Thinking of this, Zhu Chentan's face looked as disgusting as if he had swallowed a fly.
Who is Zhu Yinluan? She is not even worthy of carrying her shoes. If she knows what is good for her, she should let Shen Jingzhan go and leave the Shen family on her own initiative.
"Master, I'm afraid you forgot that she had cut off ties with the family before. You asked her not to come back, but now I'm afraid she can't deliver the letter."
Madam Zhu wanted to ask Lord Zhu to contact the Shen family. After all, when she closed the shop before, she scolded and threatened Zhu Yinluan. Now that he went to the Shen family, who knew whether he would drink tea or urine?
Unexpectedly, Lord Zhu passed the matter back to her and asked her to deliver the letter?
As the master of the family, he is afraid of offending the Shen family. She is just a concubine, so why shouldn't she be afraid?
That little bitch in life is now in a completely different position than before!
"If you can't deliver it, then think of a way." Lord Zhu said with a serious face, "After all, she is a member of the Zhu family. What's the point of marrying her without knowing why? As the mistress, you must find a way to make it happen!"
Mrs. Zhu was choked and couldn't find the words to reply.
Zhu Chentan couldn't help but interrupt, "Father, how could you have overlooked this? Zhu Yinluan has found the Shi family as her backer, and now she calls General Shi her father and Madam Shi her mother. How could she be willing to return to our home?"
"What's the big deal?" Lord Zhu's abacus clattered.
"She is capable of finding the Shi family as her backer. If her heart belongs to the Zhu family, wouldn't our family also be indirectly related to the Shi family?"
General Shi has a lot of say among the military generals!
Zhu Chentan was scolded, and her face became very aggrieved, "Father, are you saying that your daughter is incompetent? Has your daughter brought shame to the Zhu family?"
Lord Zhu was overwhelmed, after all, she was his eldest daughter whom he had cherished and pampered for many years, so his voice softened.
"That's not what I meant. I believe you will be more successful than your sister in the future."
"But for now, we still have to count on her. We should contact her as soon as possible, have her come home, work for the family, let you marry a rich man, and help your father and your brother get promoted. In the future, your mother might even be able to get a royal consort."
Lord Zhu coaxed the two of them in disguise.
Zhu Chentan calmed down, and Mrs. Zhu thought about the possibility he mentioned and started to change her mind.
Zhu Mingsheng, who was standing by, narrowed his eyes and suggested, "If we can't see Third Sister, why don't we go find the Shen family?"
"Why would the Shen family meet us?" Lord Zhu didn't want to offend the Shen family. After all, he didn't know what the Shen family meant.
The main thing is that there is no information at all about how the Shen family accepted Zhu Yinluan!
He planned to meet Zhu Yinluan first, and of course he had to pick the weak ones.
As for how to meet Zhu Yinluan, Mrs. Zhu will have to find a way.
Zhu Mingsheng said, "We went around in circles to find our third sister. We were trying to save face for her ruthless abandonment of our family, but don't others who don't know the truth think we are up to something?"
Hearing this, the three of them looked over.
"It would be better to send a letter directly to the Shen family. Mother would pretend that she knew nothing and say that the third sister had divorced the Wei family and had run away for a long time without any news. It was only when I attended the wedding banquet last time that I saw her and learned that she had married into the Shen family."
Master Zhu thought about it and thought that this was a feasible approach. He nodded and said, "For now, this is the only way to do it."
He looked at Madam Zhu and said, "There is no time to lose. Let's go to the Shen family tomorrow to hand in the greeting card!"
Madam Zhu made up her mind, "...Okay."
The next morning, she personally delivered the visiting card to the Shen family's door.
