From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 923

The sky was clear, the stars dotted the night sky, and the moonlight was like water, slowly pouring down, painting the earth silver.

The world seemed to be covered with a hazy gauze, and the gauze was stained with white frost, but when the cool night wind blew, everything was floating again.

Zhao Jianjia's hair was also floating, and the years seemed to have left no traces on her face. Her skin was still fair and tight, and her eyes were still as clear as water.

It's just that her temperament has changed. She no longer has the willfulness and arrogance of the past, but is replaced by an indescribable grace and gentleness.

She had a faint smile on her face, and that smile was so warm and tender.

Her voice was calm, but it was filled with unnoticeable joy: "Actually, home is pretty good. I have Ziyuan and Qingyuan to accompany me, and Moxiang can help me with some chores. Little Wenxin has just learned to speak, and she is very cute. Seeing her well-behaved appearance, I feel very happy."

"Aunt Xue and mother help me take care of her. It's great that the family is happy."

At this point, she looked at Zhou Yuan and said, "It's a pity that you are not here."

Zhou Yuan felt guilty when he heard this, and held her hand, whispering, "The war is almost over. From now on, I will stay at home and not go anywhere."

Zhao Jianjia blinked and said, "You promised me so many things, you can't break your promise. Go to the grassland to see the clear blue sky and the herds of cattle and sheep, and go to the sea to see the rising red sun and the raging ocean."

Zhou Yuan hurriedly said, "Of course we have to do it. These are all in our future plans."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly stopped being nervous. Looking back, he realized that Jianjia was deliberately using such words to comfort himself.

He sighed and said, "Jianjia, no matter what, we will have time to stay together."

Zhao Jianjia smiled and said, "I just don't want you to be so stressed. I went south this time because I really missed you."

"The situation at sea is so dangerous, and you always take everything on your shoulders. How can I not worry about you..."

"Now that I see you are fine and healthy, I feel relieved all of a sudden."

Zhou Yuan couldn't help but hold her in his arms and said, "I will cherish my life. After all, you are waiting for me to go home."

Zhao Jianjia said "hmm", blowing the night wind, leaning in his arms, quietly looking at the stars in the sky.

At this moment, she felt at ease and at ease.

In a trance, she remembered a lot of things, and a smile gradually appeared at the corners of her mouth, and her eyes curved into crescents.

Zhou Yuan couldn't help but ask, "What are you laughing at?"

Zhao Jianjia said, "I remember the first time I met you, on the morning of the second day after the wedding, which was more than three years ago."

"In fact, I wanted to see what you looked like on the day of the wedding, but unfortunately you were covered with a veil, and my mother also watched me closely and didn't allow me to do anything wrong."

Isn't that when I traveled through time?

Zhou Yuan said: "At that time, you despised me."

"Well... despised..."

Zhao Jianjia tilted her head and smiled: "You are as thin as a monkey, look fragile, have a bad reputation, and have an affair with a prostitute. As the most talented woman in Yunzhou, I naturally despise you."

"But you are also very strange. You actually agreed to such an outrageous thing as the three-point agreement, and you are unwilling to study."

Zhou Yuan said: "I still don't want to now. I am a lazy person."

Zhao Jianjia said: "Later, I realized that you are too talented. You have only studied for a few years, but you are already full of knowledge and talent. You are the kind of person who is like the star of literature."

I am ashamed to say that I am not the star of literature. I just stand on the shoulders of civilization and have not been influenced much.

Zhao Jianjia seemed to have not had such intimate words for a long time, so she wanted to talk.

"You fiddled with those strange tools, saying they can strengthen your body, but I still don't believe it."

"Then you cut some bamboo and said you wanted to go fishing, and you really went early in the morning, like an old man."

Zhou Yuan smiled gently and said, "People are like this, sometimes old, sometimes young, affected by the environment."

Zhao Jianjia said, "You used the excuse of helping me raise money, took the fifty taels of silver given by your mother, and went to the brothel for entertainment."

Zhou Yuan said, "Just tell me whether you have raised it or not."

Zhao Jianjia nodded slightly. Recalling the past always brings her a lot of sweetness. This may be the happiness of "talking about the night rain in Bashan".

"You went to Baiyun Mountain to practice Taoism for three months. After you came down the mountain, you were really completely different. Your body became stronger, and your temperament changed, as if you became younger."

Zhou Yuan swore that any normal person who went to Baiyun Temple to practice Taoism for three months would become younger.

Because desire has filled every part of the body.

"You helped Ningyue plot against the Xu family, but you deliberately hid it from me and pretended to be heartless, causing me toTarget you, make you angry..."

"Then you tell the truth, make me feel guilty, and make me willing to follow you."

Zhou Yuan was sweating profusely, and couldn't help laughing: "When did you figure this out?"

Zhao Jianjia snorted and said softly: "After Lin'an Prefecture, I figured it out, but I think it's not important anymore."

"Because I was indeed a little naive at that time. If you didn't do this, I might have continued to quarrel with you."

Speaking of this, she couldn't help laughing, her heart sweet, and buried her head in Zhou Yuan's arms.

She whispered: "These years, you are always not by my side. When I miss you, I will think of those things in the past."

"Every little bit, as if it happened yesterday."

"And now, my husband has become a great hero. "

Zhou Yuan stroked her cheek and smiled, "I remember you said that your ideal husband is a versatile man who can govern the country with both civil and military skills. Now I seem to be one."

Zhao Jianjia shook her head and said, "Yes, but... it doesn't matter. At that time, I was full of girlish fantasies. Now I have a better understanding of life."

"There is no such thing as a versatile man in the world. Everyone is full of shortcomings. Understanding and caring for each other, and facing the complex world together, this is the most important thing."

"There is no best, only the most suitable."

"Husband, you are the most suitable person for me."

At the end, she opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but finally smiled and said nothing.

Her personality is not flamboyant.

She is not very good at expressing her inner emotions.

Her love and care, worry and dedication to Zhou Yuan are never less than anyone else.

She is just introverted and will only say those emotional words when she is most vulnerable.

"This is not a good thing. "

Zhou Yuan whispered: "Always recalling the past will bring people into a sad mood. Even if those things bring you sweetness, a faint sadness will appear after the sweetness. "

"Jianjia, look more to the future! Imagine your future life!"

Zhao Jianjia was very fragile at this moment.

She hugged her beloved husband and whispered: "I don't want to think about it, I want to hear you tell me."

Zhou Yuan said: "The future, there are too many things to imagine in the future."

"After the sea is opened, you will see all kinds of Western fun things, handicrafts, paintings and dramas, and experience the unique culture on the other side of the ocean."

"You will see a group of outstanding talents emerging from the Great Jin Dynasty due to economic take-off and changes in the times. A large number of poems and lyrics will be published, and the culture will usher in a peak. "

"We live in this most prosperous era to enjoy the knowledge and spiritual consumption that our predecessors could not enjoy. "

Zhao Jianjia's eyes sparkled, and her face showed a longing look.

She whispered: "Spirit? That's great, what else is there besides spirit?"

Zhou Yuan said: "And the body, your husband's internal strength is getting deeper and deeper, and I guarantee that you can experience the best happiness."

"Don't say such nonsense."

Zhao Jianjia gently hit his chest, and then whispered: "Mother said that you need a male child with the surname Zhou, and asked me to work hard."

Zhou Yuan picked her up and laughed: "I will work hard too!"
