mountain and river oath

Zhao Jing walked out of the bamboo spring with Shu Zilan in his arms, Shu Ting raised his sword and looked at Zhao Jing warily,

"Put down my son," Shu Ting said.

"At this special moment today, are you sure you want to keep your son?" Zhao Jing looked at Shu Ting and said.

Shu Ting remained silent.

"You are Shu Zilan's bodyguard, but your heart is for King Yu. You hide such things from your master for King Yu. Shu Zilan is a real person. He is not a cat or a dog. He is full of talent and pride. Treat such a group of people as a joke." Zhao Jing looked at Shu Ting and said sharply.

Shu Ting bowed his head guiltily and remained silent.

"Get out of the way" Zhao Jing said.

Shu Ting stood still.

"Why do you want to use force with me? Or are you waiting for the spies from King Yu's mansion to report to King Yu, and for King Yu's people to come?" Zhao Jing looked at Shu Ting mockingly and said.

"I can't let you take Young Master away?" Shu Ting said.

"Wait for your son to hear the sound of gongs and drums all over the city here, and know everything. Since you are hiding it, keep it hidden," Zhao Jing said.

Shu Ting hesitated.

Zhao Jing walked straight over.

Shu Ting immediately met with the spies of Prince Yu's mansion, bowed his head and whispered in secret, the spies nodded repeatedly and left in a hurry.

"My lord, Mr. Shu was taken away by Zhao Jing," Sun Yi said.

"Do you want to send someone to chase it back?" Sun Yi said.

"No, I'm still worried about how to arrange Rong Qing. I didn't expect Zhao Jing to take the initiative to do it, which saved me a lot of things. At this time, Zhao Jing is the most suitable person. Let him take Rong Qing out to relax. , When they come back, everything will be dusted," Zhao Chongdao.

"Subordinates understand," Sun Yi said.

Shu Ting's sword was lowered slowly, Zhao Jing carried Shu Zilan over the wall and went out, a carriage was parked not far away, Zhao Jing hugged Shu Zilan on the carriage, Shu Zilan snuggled in Zhao Jing's arms softly , Zhao Jing sat carefully, careful not to bump into Shu Zilan, he looked at Shu Zilan and sighed in his heart, it would be great if he could always be so submissive and obedient.

The carriage traveled all the way and arrived at a monastery at noon. Shu Zilan opened her eyes in a daze,

"Where are we?" Shu Zilan asked.

"Woyun Temple" Zhao Jing said, he got up and got out of the carriage, and stretched out his hand to Shu Zilan outside the carriage, Shu Zilan ignored Zhao Jing, looked at Zhao Jing suspiciously and said, "Is there something you are hiding from me?"

"No," Zhao Jing pretended to be calm.

"There must be, otherwise you wouldn't take me away from the capital without my consent," Shu Zilan affirmed.

Zhao Jing was surprised by Shu Zilan's sensitivity in his heart, and tried his best to keep calm, for fear that Shu Zilan would see the clue, "Tomorrow is my mother's memorial day, I want you to accompany me"

"Lie." Shu Zilan looked at Zhao Jing, and said decisively, "You must have something to hide from me. This matter is related to me. I can't accept it." Shu Zilan guessed, carefully observing Zhao Jing's expression.

"No, you're thinking too much," Zhao Jing said calmly.

"Okay, if you don't tell me, I'll go back and check it myself." Shu Zilan got out, sat on the driving seat, and waved the whip. Zhao Jing hurriedly grabbed Shu Zilan's hand.

"Speak." Shu Zilan looked at Zhao Jing.

Zhao Jing didn't know what to do, he didn't expect Shu Zilan to be so keen.

"Let go" Shu Zilan pushed Zhao Jing's hand away,

Zhao Jing grabbed it, and the two started to fight,

"Did you think that I was so easy to get you in the morning, that I couldn't beat you?" Shu Zilan said dissatisfiedly.

"Would you like to go back tomorrow?" Zhao Jing discussed.

"Stay here by yourself, I'll go back alone," Shu Zilan said.

"Okay, I'll go back with you," Zhao Jing said helplessly.

Shu Zilan got into the carriage, Zhao Jing jumped into the carriage,

"Hurry up, coachman," Shu Zilan said.

The coachman looked back at Zhao Jing, Zhao Jing nodded slightly, the coachman raised his whip, and the carriage was running fast on the flat road, the two of them were silent all the way in the car, Shu Zilan frowned, he almost had a premonition that Zhao Jing was trying his best things to hide.

In the evening, Shu Zilan ordered the carriage to stop directly at Prince Yu's Mansion. When Shu Zilan got off the carriage, he saw lanterns and festoons in front of Prince Yu's Mansion, red curtains hanging on the door, and a bright red letter "Happy" prominently posted on the gate, festive The drum music of Shu Zilan faintly came from the gate of the house, and what Shu Zilan vaguely worried about along the way finally came true. Zhao Chong got married today.

Shu Zilan staggered, his face was pale, Zhao Jing walked up to help him worriedly, Shu Zilan pushed away fiercely, a smile uglier than crying appeared on his pale face,

"Don't worry, I can do it. Today I'm going to congratulate him in person. Congratulations to him for finally getting married. Congratulations to him for giving birth to a precious son early." Shu Zilan said coldly.

"I'll accompany you," Zhao Jing said.

Shu Zilan ignored Zhao Jing, he went straight in with a smile on his face, the gatekeeper recognized him and said, "Mr. Shu is here, I also said that you have a deep relationship with the prince, why is the prince married, but you are not here?"

Shu Zilan ignored it, and walked into the atrium. The nobles of the capital were all there, and they all offered wine to Zhao Chong at the banquet. The smile on her face cooled instantly, Shu Zilan walked over, and said with a smile, "My lord is out of touch, why didn't you invite me for today's wedding, it seems that I have to ask myself to leave Prince Yu's mansion."

Zhao Chong looked nervous, he opened his mouth not knowing what to say,

"Congratulations, my lord. Shu wished my lord an early son, but Shu went out in a hurry today and didn't bring any presents, so I will make up for it another day. I hope my lord doesn't mind." Shu Zilan greeted with a smile.

"Rong Qing, I..." Zhao Chong sweated nervously on his forehead.

"Blessings have been delivered, I'm leaving." Shu Zilan turned and left. Zhao Chong stepped forward and grabbed Shu Zilan's arm, and said in a low voice, "Let's talk in the back hall."

"No need, my lord has a heavy task today, how dare Shu act like an uninterested person and disturb the bridal chamber of my lord?" Shu Zilan said.

The people around laughed when they heard this.

"Rong Qing, listen to me." Zhao Chong looked around and lowered his voice.

"There's nothing to talk about between us." Shu Zilan pushed Zhao Chong away and said coldly.

Zhao Chong wanted to say something else, Shu Zilan turned and left, and Zhao Jing followed suit.

Shu Zilan stood up straight, but when she got into the carriage, her body trembled suddenly. Zhao Jing supported her with worry, but she felt that Shu Zilan was cold and weak. Getting into the carriage, Zhao Jing sat on it, Shu Zilan's face was hanging to one side, unable to see his expression clearly.

The carriage stopped in front of the Shu residence, Shu Zilan got off the carriage, and walked in front sadly, Zhao Jing followed unhurriedly,

"You go back, I'm fine." Shu Zilan turned around and said, his red eyes were bloodshot.

Zhao Jing walked up, looked at Shu Zilan with distress and said softly, "Cry if you want to cry, cry out loud"

Shu Zilan turned around stubbornly and walked without speaking.

Zhao Jing really hated Shu Zilan's stubbornness, he walked over and hugged Shu Zilan fiercely, Shu Zilan struggled desperately, Zhao Jing hugged her fiercely, Shu Zilan's struggling strength gradually disappeared, his hand firmly grasped Zhao Jing's lapel, leaning gently on Zhao Jing's body, he cried silently, crying so aggrieved and sad, those silent tears, just like the grievance, sadness and helplessness in Shu Zilan's heart, flowed out at this moment, in the dark Seeing the sun for the first time, it wet Zhao Jing's clothes in small grains. Zhao Jing felt sad and wished to replace him with his own body, but he knew that he couldn't, some disasters had to be borne by himself.

Shu Zilan was crying weakly, Zhao Jing helped him into Huanhua Courtyard, Shu Ting walked up, was surprised to see the two people who had already left came back, looked at Shu Zilan's disheveled face, and immediately understood that the matter had been exposed, Shu Zilan Lan knows.

Shu Ting wanted to come forward to help, Zhao Jing waved his hand, Shu Ting retreated hesitantly, the door of Huanhua Courtyard was closed, Zhao Jing walked over, lit the candle, and helped Shu Zilan sit on the couch, Shu Zilan He stared blankly at the sky, without joy or worry, with a dull expression.

Zhao Jing got a cup of tea and handed it to Shu Zilan, Shu Zilan shook her head,

"Have a drink," Zhao Jing said softly.

Shu Zilan was silent.

Zhao Jing had no choice but to put down his teacup and stay by Shu Zilan's side.

"Go back," Shu Zilan said.

"I don't trust you," Zhao Jing said.

"I'm fine," Shu Zilan said.

Zhao Jing looked at Shu Zilan with concern and said nothing.

But Shu Zilan was stabbed by the concern in Zhao Jing's eyes, and said impatiently, "You go, you go far away, I don't need your sympathy, you go"

Zhao Jing remained silent.

Shu Zilan suddenly stepped forward and pushed Zhao Jing, Zhao Jing grabbed Shu Zilan's hand, Shu Zilan pushed it away fiercely, and smiled coldly, "Who has respected me for one or two of you? Who ever asked me, do I need wishful concealment and wishful protection? I am a man, so I am not a dainty woman? Hahahaha" Shu Zilan suddenly laughed, laughing madly, "I am just a Shameful man, hahaha..." Shu Zilan collapsed on the ground with a smile, like a rose trampled in mud, fragile and embarrassed.

Zhao Jing anxiously wanted to help Shu Zilan up, but Shu Zilan pushed her away and asked, "Why didn't you tell me? Why did you keep it from me? You think I can't bear it?"

"I" Zhao Jing didn't know what to say.Maybe he, like Zhao Chong, doesn't know Shu Zilan well. This arrangement is obviously to protect Shu Zilan, but it hurts Shu Zilan more deeply. Shu Zilan is a strong man, not a boudoir daughter. Don't want this kind of wishful thinking protection. This kind of protection treats Shu Zilan as a woman, which is extremely humiliating to him.

"I'm sorry," Zhao Jing looked at Shu Zilan and said apologetically.

"You didn't apologize to me, I should say sorry to you." Shu Zilan looked at Zhao Jing with tears in her eyes.

"Get up, it's cold on the ground." Zhao Jing helped Shu Zilan up, and Shu Zilan waved his hands. He looked at Zhao Jing with a bleak smile in his eyes and said, "Thank you for staying with me at this time. I am a failure, failure I am completely useless to the country, useless to my family, and helpless to others. I have nothing to do with myself, and I am proud and arrogant, but I am always wasting."

"Rong Qing" Zhao Jing looked at him worriedly.

"I know you have always felt sorry for me. For a relationship, you imprisoned yourself in a square inch. You are extremely incompetent, and everyone in Yuwang's mansion looks down on me. They think that I am valued by Zhao Chong because of that relationship. Looking at me is like looking at a male favourite, I, Shu Zilan, have suffered so much because of myself." Shu Zilan said with a self-deprecating smile, the sorrow in her eyes made Zhao Jing feel extremely distressed.

"Let him go," Zhao Jing said.

"I can't let go," Shu Zilan said, "20 years, 20 years of being together day and night, how many days and nights we were together, how happy we were at that time" Shu Zilan said in a daze, as if returning to that happy time.

"Then we must continue to endure such humiliation," Zhao Jing said.

Shu Zilan remained silent.

"You are an eagle flying in the sky. You have strategy, intelligence, and intelligence. You should not imprison yourself in a square inch for a man. Your life revolves around this man. This kind of life will only destroy you. Yes, the relationship is for better fulfillment of each other, mutual achievement, and mutual progress, rather than constant harm, forgiveness, continued harm, and let one of them be exhausted." Zhao Jing said.

"If feelings can be so rational, they are not feelings, and those injuries and pains will disappear in these trade-offs." Shu Zilan looked at Zhao Jing and said.

"You are not suitable, do you still want to go on?" Zhao Jing said.

"Actually, I always knew that we were not suitable. There were many contradictions in our personalities and aspirations. It was just 20 years ago. I was used to forbearance, accommodating, and surrounding Zhao Chong. Without him, my 20 years of life would be nothing. "Shu Zilan said sadly.

Zhao Jing remained silent, he knew that these 20 years were the 20 years of Shu Zilan and Zhao Chong's childhood sweetheart, he did not participate.

"However, it's time to make a decision." Shu Zilan looked at Zhao Jing and said slowly, his application gradually recovered, "Thank you for always being by my side"

"You still want to drive me away," Zhao Jing said dissatisfiedly.

"I'm sorry for you, never again." Shu Zilan looked at Zhao Jing and said, only this man warmed him up when he was in trouble, and gave him selfless love.

Zhao Jing laughed, Shu Zilan followed suit, and felt warm, warming his cold heart.
