Chapter 71: The Moon Before Flowers (Part 2)
Shu'er looked up at the moonlight among the flowers and murmured: "When I find myself, I will look for you again...at that time, will you still wait for me?"
Zhuge calmly stared at Shu'er's profile and said, "I will wait, but don't let me wait too long. The period of three years is three years. If you don't come to me after three years, I will go to you."
Shu'er turned to look at Zhuge Rongrong. The moment their eyes met, they were destined to be entangled in this life. He changed his usual casual and uninhibited attitude, and there was no teasing or confident smile. There was only seriousness and sincerity in his eyes. At that moment
, Shu'er almost surrendered. She wanted to tell him her life experience and difficulties: "Master Zhuge, I understand what you mean. You mean that what separates you and me is not the mountains and rivers, but my thin layer.
I won’t take off my mask for you.”
Zhuge calmly stretched out his hand to caress a strand of black hair on her temples, as if taking off the so-called mask for her. He said softly: "Miss Yan, don't worry, I will wait for you. If I don't wait for you, it will prove it."
I don't deserve you to be honest with me. Go back to Chen State to express your ambition first, and then go to Song State to untie your knot. Your Bilang Ningxiang is the right time to strike while the iron is hot, and sell more while it is booming. But Rouge
Gouache, just like clothes, cannot be static and last forever. Just relying on a cosmetics store will not make you rich. If you really want to make a fortune, you not only need to earn enough gold and silver, but you also need to recruit and cultivate operations.
Talent. Not only must you be able to do things yourself, but you must also be able to let things go, so that you can have a big business and a lot of money. When you have free time, remember to broaden your horizons and learn other ways to make money. When your business is pervasive in Chen Guo, you will be rich and powerful.
Go further.”
Shu'er thought: "What's the point of telling him that I am the princess of the Song Dynasty? I was thrown into the Jade River and escaped on the Zhuge family's boat... Could it be that I told him that my biological mother was the subjugated princess of the Flower Street and Willow Alley?
, the adoptive mother is a banned concubine in the Song Palace, and the nominal father is King Huai of Song. Is it possible that the real father will never know who he is? If he knew, whether he looked down on me or sympathized with me, he would be
I don't want it." Then the words came to her lips and she swallowed them back. She had been wearing this mask for too long. Only Lin Ying knew about it, and Lin Ying had already guessed it but didn't say it. How could she do it for once?
The heartbeat after drunkenness easily lowers the guard?
Shu'er lowered his head and sighed: "Master Zhuge, I don't know how to thank you..."
Zhuge calmly regained his easy-going and confident smile and said, "Why are you thanking me? I still have a lot of sweet words and lingering love words that I haven't said to you, so don't thank me now. The King of Shu just said so much to you, even though the moon is full tonight,
, the scenery is tempting, but I don’t want to follow behind him and be courteous to you. I’d better wait until you finish your business and completely forget all the words of that disrespectful person, and then I will express my sincere feelings to you.
loyalty."
Shu'er said angrily: "I didn't listen to his jokes!"
Zhuge Congrong was a little worried: "He is not joking. Although he speaks and acts carelessly and has no grace, I have never heard of him making such a joke with others. Alas, my first love rival is the king of a country.
Boss Yan, what do you think we should do?"
Shu'er asked with a smile: "What is the 'first love rival'? Is there a second or third one?"
Zhuge calmly continued to say worriedly: "Of course there will be! When you dressed up as a woman with cut sleeves, I almost thought I was also a cut sleeve. Before you changed into women's clothes and were busy in the world, you had already caught the eye of the King of Shu. Now you
I changed into women's clothes and looked like a king. I'm afraid that my love rivals will all be the kings of the country in the future, the civil and military elites of the dynasty... If this continues, I, a commoner warrior and an isolated island merchant, don't know what I can do.
I can’t get a wife!”
Shu'er was so amused by him that he laughed so hard that he almost fell from the tree. He rubbed his belly and said, "Your honey-smeared mouth is more powerful than all the martial arts in the world you have collected combined!"
Zhuge calmly smiled and said: "Don't look at me as if I only know how to wield a sword all day long. In fact, my adoptive father also taught me to read, write, play the piano and draw when I was a child! I am not bragging about myself. I am not as proud as you, the kings of a country."
I am competing for the favor of civil and military officials, but don’t underestimate me. If you don’t have a lot of education, if you don’t read thousands of books, if you don’t travel thousands of miles, how can you put so much honey on your lips?”
Shu'er said: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, you really have to put a lot of honey on your mouth to be able to docile the sister of the Xue family who has raised poisonous snakes and pythons. You are the only one who is the best..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhuge Calm calmed down his smile and explained solemnly: "Don't get me wrong. She and I have no friendship at all. We are just people we met when we were children. My adoptive father and her father are good friends who have known each other for many years, but I
But I didn’t have any friendship with her. When I was a child, I only lived in Yaowang Villa for a few days. At that time, I was very scared when I saw the giant python she raised, and I stayed away from her. Later for many years
I have never seen her again, and we are not familiar with each other."
Shu'er felt inexplicably happy after hearing his explanation, but she still said in a serious tone: "Master Zhuge, don't dislike her because she raised a giant python, and don't flatter me because I hold a sword."
Zhuge said calmly: "Speaking of the giant python, I thought of one thing. No matter whether my adoptive father and I leave tomorrow, you should leave Yaowang Mountain with King Shu first, and quickly go to the Biliangju workshop by the Biliang Lake to discuss business.
Don't delay any longer, otherwise the people in your Chen Guo store will worry about your safety."
Shu'er said: "You are so anxious to chase me away, are you afraid that your sister of the Xue family will order the giant python to eat me?"
Zhuge calmly said: "It's good that you know! I don't want to rush you away. I wish I could carry you in my arms and keep you with me. Even if I teach you all the martial arts I know, it doesn't matter. But the Xue family's giant python and
Poison is no joke. If they don't welcome you, for your safety, you'd better not stay here for a long time. If you follow the King of Shu and leave, I can feel a little more relieved."
Shu'er nodded: "Then I will leave Yaowang Mountain with King Shu tomorrow, and then he will return to Zichuan, and I will go to Biliang Lake. Master Zhuge, I'll say goodbye tonight, see you later."
Zhuge Calmly told him: "Before you leave tomorrow, you'd better change back into men's clothes. Although you made such a fuss today, I'm afraid people from all kinds of sects will know that you are a woman sooner or later, but since they can't beat you, you have Meng Lin."
Don’t worry too much about the sword you made to protect yourself. If the King of Shu assigns a guard to you, don’t refuse. After all, Xiling is difficult to travel, and not everyone in the ten sects and eight sects can protect you. You are a girl.
