Chapter 46: The old friend remains
When Shangguan Yu saw Su Muwan's face suddenly change, even his lips faded, he couldn't help but worry.
It would be fine if he didn't speak. As soon as he opened his mouth, Su Muwan was instantly awakened by him. She pushed Shangguan Yu away, jumped out without carriage moving, and then ran away like a life-long run. Even Shangguan Yu's swearing behind him failed to make her turn back.
At this time, Su Muwan had only one thought in her mind. She knew that her heart was in chaos. She didn't know how to stop this kind of thing from spreading. She had to ask others for advice, but she couldn't believe it.
In her mind, the only person she could believe was Shaohuajun. That was why she ignored the danger and Shangguan Yu's retention, and wanted to find Shaohuajun and asked him to help her solve her doubts. That was why she ran away regardless of the danger.
"My God, princess..."
The driver in charge of driving was startled by Su Muwan's sudden jump from the carriage. He exclaimed in disrespect. He quickly stopped the carriage aside and looked at Shangguan Yu in horror.
"Prince! Do you want a slave to chase him?"
The coachman looked at Shangguan Yu's sudden gloomy face and asked carefully.
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yu's originally ugly face became even more ugly. He didn't know where he had offended Su Muwan, nor did he know what was on him that made Su Muwan resist so much.
When he first saw Su Muwan from the palace, he discovered the strong hatred hidden in her eyes. Moreover, at that time she even had murderous intentions towards herself. At that time, she only thought that it was because she wanted to tease her that she would do such a move for her own protection.
Now it seems that the more you prove that it is not. It seems that you have a deep hatred with her. Wanwan, what is going on? What is hidden in your heart?
"Nothing happened today, you saw nothing. If the princess's incident leaked a little bit of news, the head on your neck would be lost."
Shangguan Yu calmed down his thoughts, whispered a low warning without looking back, and jumped flexibly from the carriage, staring deeply at the direction where Su Muwan disappeared. He was sure again that one day, he would unravel all the secrets in her heart and make her willingly become his own woman.
"Don't worry, my lord, I will never dare to spread rumors." The carriage was so scared by the murderous intent in Shangguan Yu's words that he trembled and quickly promised that he would keep his mouth shut.
Shangguan Yu took a deep breath and said to the coachman. "Okay, you go back first."
"Yes." The coachman did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly drove the carriage towards the direction of Prince Yu's mansion.
Su Muwan naturally knew where Shaohuajun lived, but after she ran for a while, she suddenly stopped.
He secretly scolded himself for being impulsive. Although she knew where he lived, if she went there at this time, it would definitely make Shaohuajun feel suspicious.
So what should I do now?
Suddenly, Su Muwan, who was walking on the street, lost her purpose and didn't know where to go...
Just wandering around aimlessly on the street, as I walked, I suddenly heard a shout behind me. "Be careful..."
Su Muwan suddenly came back to her senses and looked down at her feet. If she had made it so steady, wouldn't she have to stage the scene of "suicide" in Yichu?
She quickly withdrew her feet with lingering fear, and suddenly heard a warm voice behind her with a teasing sound. "Girl, I specially chose this beautiful time for sunset to kill myself, so that everyone who watches the sunset here will miss you in the future?"
"Shaohuajun?" Su Muwan turned around and saw the person she wanted to see, so there was an unconcealed joy in her voice.
Shaohua Jun smiled gently at Su Muwan, and then began to change the bait skillfully, while chuckling, "It turns out that Muwan still recognizes it, so why do you want to jump into the river? Do you want me to not dare to fish in the future, or to watch the sunset?"
"..." Su Muwan paused, and was about to explain, but when she said something, she smiled softly. Her thoughts seemed to have dissipated a lot. She said, "Shaohua Jun misunderstood. I just thought about something and was fascinated."
"Oh, it must be interesting to make you so fascinated by Mu Wan. It seems that you have listened to the story today."
Shaohuajun did not ask Su Muwan what she was thinking, but instead changed her way to let her express her doubts.
As he said that, he put away the premonition in his hand and picked up the fish basket as if he was about to leave.
"Shaohuajun?" Su Muwan was puzzled. Didn't he just say he wanted to listen to his story? Why did he put away the fish basket and fishing rod again?
"Mu Wan, can't good stories be served with good wine? I loved the half-life drunk you gave me last time. I studied it myself when I went back, but I didn't expect it to happen. Let's go to my humble house today. You tell me the story and I invite you to drink."
"Then it's better to obey your orders than respect." Su Muwan heard Shaohuajun want to invite her to his hut. Before the man could go, his bamboo forest hut appeared in his mind. His bamboo forest hut looked unique and fresh.
Follow Shaohua Jun out of the city and headed north. Soon after, the two of them walked up to the hill closest to the city. There were dense forests, various trees, mountain flowers, and a bamboo forest on the top of the mountain. Shaohua Jun lived on the highest point, which was so elegant.
When she walked to the familiar door, she couldn't help but think of a poem.
Last year, today, the peach blossoms in this door were red in the faces of people, and the peach blossoms were still smiling in the spring breeze.
Looking at everything that was familiar, she sighed that she had been living for a lifetime, and that old friends were still old friends. How lucky she was.
She walked into Yashe with great knowledge and sat casually on the bamboo chair like the owner, and felt very moved in her heart.
Su Muwan may have been careless for a moment and devoted too much effort to the past. She did not notice that Shaohua Jun was shocked by her natural unpretentious appearance. Even the eyes of her eyes looked at her had a little more meaningful feeling.
"Come."
Shaohuajun just thought she was real and didn't think about it any other place. He went back to the room in the cottage, took out two jars of wine, handed her a jar, and said, "Come and try it, did you buy it that day, or did the stalk I brewed?"
Su Muwan took the wine jar and was immediately intoxicated by the refreshing fragrance of wine. The past reappeared. He taught herself to make wine. She couldn't help but take a breath, and then the heaviness in her heart faded a lot.
"Good wine." Then Su Muwan praised without any concealment: "There is no winemaker in the world who can have the talent of Shaohuajun."
"Haha, the award is too much!" Shaohuajun's tone was still light, but there was a smile in his eyes. "Just like it, now you can start telling stories."
Hearing this, Su Muwan held the jar and drank a few more sips, looked out the window with her eyes suddenly faded, and then she said softly: "Shaohuajun, have you ever met someone? He is obviously bad, you hate him to the core, but when you meet him again, you find that that person is different from the impression, and even subverts all his previous perceptions of him..."
After a pause, Su Muwan suddenly didn't know how she should tell him about Shangguan Yu.
Shaohua Jun suddenly curled his lips and smiled slightly: "Since that's the case, why should you compete with the past?"
"Ah?" Su Muwan was stunned. Before she could finish her words, Shaohuajun seemed to understand her thoughts. A word made her unable to know how to answer for a moment.
However, Shaohuajun suddenly stood up, walked slowly to the yard, and stood in front of the bamboo forest swaying in the wind. Su Muwan was stunned and hurriedly followed.
The bamboo sways in the wind, and the sound of bamboo leaves rustling. The clear smell of bamboo leaves gradually fell clearly in front of Su Muwan's nose. She couldn't help but close her eyes and mobilize the senses in her whole body to feel the gift from nature at this moment.
"Mu Wan thinks, what are you seeing in front of you? What are you seeing after closing your eyes?"
Shaohua Jun suddenly spoke at this time, his voice was as clean as ever, and his whole body was as elegant as bamboo.
"Huh?" Su Muwan turned her head and looked at Shaohua Jun in confusion. The latter just raised her hand and pointed at the bamboo forest in front of her, explaining softly.
"Open your eyes and look at this bamboo forest. Only its color, its height, and its swaying in the wind. But when I close my eyes, I can not only feel this bamboo forest, but also the wind, the fragrance it blows, and the different feelings brought by all senses."
"Shaohuajun..."
Su Muwan looked at Shaohua Jun in surprise, feeling that she seemed to understand, but she didn't understand. She suddenly remembered a story about Huineng, the Sixth Patriarch of Zen Buddhism.
A banner was blown by the wind, and two monks went over to debate the wind banner. One thought it was the wind that blew the banner, the other thought it was the opposite. At this time, Huineng stepped forward to answer the conversation and said, "It is not the wind that moves, nor the banner that moves, the heart of the benevolent is moved."
Could it be that what Shaohua Jun wants to tell himself is the reason?
"Shaohuajun..."
Just when Su Muwan was trying to explain her thoughts, Shaohuajun shook his head gently and blocked Su Muwan's words first: "Mu Wan must have had a grove in her heart."
Yes, although she has been hesitating and hesitating, hasn't she already had an answer in her heart?
She always felt that Shangguan Yu had changed, but she had no chance or time to get to know Shangguan Yu well. She just kept listening to Shen Yun's one-sided words, thinking that Shangguan Yu was unattainable, and felt that her humbleness was not worthy of him, so she made mistakes again and again.
But she had known Shen Yun's true face in this life, so she had always been understanding Shangguan Yu with her own heart. If we talked further, Shangguan Yu had not changed at all, but that was his true face.
Su Muwan suddenly thought of something again. She suddenly felt that she had misunderstood Shangguan Yu in the past, and she shouldn't push Shangguan Yu away without saying a word in this life. This is unfair to him and to herself.
"I know what to do!"
Su Muwan suddenly tightened her hands and bit her lips and said, she turned her head gratefully again to Shaohuajun, sincerely thanking him: "Thank you, Shaohuajun, if it weren't for you, I might have been blinded by the illusion created in my heart."
Shaohua Jun smiled, but looked at Su Muwan meaningfully without saying anything.
Su Muwan put her hand in her heart and closed her eyes and felt her beating vigorously. She couldn't help but ask herself silently in her heart, do you really have no feelings for Shangguan Yu?
