Chapter 12

On this day, Wu Zhen and the emperor and the concubines watched a new rehearsal dance music in Xingyuan. When they were about to leave the palace, they met an acquaintance, Huang Yi and Huang Langjun. They were one of the candidates for her husband whom the Duke of Yu looked for. Later, they lost to her because of Biqi and Shooting. In shame, they resolutely refused to get married and became brothers with her.

Huang Langjun is now the commander-in-chief, serving as the duty of guarding the palace gate and inspecting the outer court. Her armor shines in the sun, like a giant tower gate god. The two have always had a good relationship over the years, so they speak casually. Huang Langjun is like others and has long heard of Wu Zhen’s marriage. When he saw Wu Zhen, he called her to chat with him.

"I really didn't expect it." Huang Langjun put his waist on his back, and his thick and firm face was full of sighs. Nine out of ten people Wu Zhen saw these days would say this.

"I wanted to introduce one of my brothers to you not long ago. I just returned from the Yizhou border. I am very good at riding and shooting skills and definitely not inferior to you. I thought that this time I finally had a man worthy of you, so I would not disappoint you. Unfortunately, before I could tell you, I suddenly chose a partner to get married. It's a pity."

It can be seen that Huang Langjun's pity comes from the bottom of his heart, but in fact Wu Zhen doesn't understand how he came from his understanding that "only only can he dare to marry Wu Zhen if he can compare with him" is so stubborn that Wu Zhen is too lazy to tell him what the reason is. He waved his hand lazily and said, "You actually just want to see me compete with others for riding and shooting. Forget it, next time I have the chance to compete with your brother, so you won't be thinking about it."

Huang Langjun didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly whispered: "Actually, I don't feel very good about that Mei Langzhong."

Wu Zhen was not surprised at all. The real man Huang Langjun was attracted to must have a tiger-backed, bear-backed, bear-shaped waist and nine feet tall, and his strength was amazing. Although he was a big shoulder and wide back, the young man had a little weight. He looked like a noble literati. It would be strange if Huang Langjun could look down on him.

Huang Langjun: "Do you know why? Because Langzhong Mei seems to have an objection to me."

Wu Zhen suddenly became interested, and just took a look at his laziness, and asked, "Why, do you know him? How could he have any objections to you?"

Huang Langjun scratched his head and was puzzled: "If I knew him, it would be great, but I don't know him at all. I have only met him a few times in the palace, but for some reason, he looked extremely cold when he saw me every time, which made me difficult to ask..."

Wu Zhen: "You are probably worried too much, he looks like everyone." Except for her.

Huang Langjun shook his head, "No, you haven't seen it with your own eyes, you don't know, it's just that kind of stunning gaze. Every time I'm seen by him, I feel that there are many knives behind me, which makes me feel uncomfortable. His eyes are also very terrifying, and it's like..." Huang Langjun tried hard to describe it: "It's like I snatched his woman."

Wu Zhen suddenly narrowed her eyes. She was not a stupid guy like Huang Langjun, and soon noticed some clues. Huang Langjun has been committed to recommending a man who is good at riding and cumming, and she is not bad for her father. Ruomei Zhuyu really has a relationship with her. She will definitely not be able to get better for such a strange man who has been trying to solve her lifelong affairs. Isn’t this really the “hate of taking over his wife”.

After thinking it through, Wu Zhen patted Huang Langjun on the shoulder and said, "Be careful in the future. If he really wants to hit you, I will not help you." Wu Zhen thought that Xiao Langjun has not fought with this stupid guy until now, maybe it was because Xiao Langjun could not beat him.

Although Huang Langjun didn't know why she suddenly said this, he still said angrily when he heard this: "It is said that brothers are like brothers and feet, and women are like clothes. If you have a family, you will treat your brothers like this!"

As soon as he said that, Huang Langjun realized something was wrong. Later, it seemed that it couldn't make sense. Although it meant this, it was just wrong.

Wu Zhen laughed out loud, "Brother, I'll give you a piece of advice. Next time I'll publicize finding a husband for me everywhere, remember to see if my young man with a fierce look is around me."

Huang Langjun's straight intestine suddenly reached the bottom, and he finally realized why Langzhong Mei was so fierce when he looked at him.

Huang Langjun: "Ah...so that's how it is."

Wu Zhen answered Huang Langjun's confusion at the gate of the palace. On the way back, he rode a horse and was about to go back, and saw a slightly familiar figure on the street.

I just talked about him and saw him now. Mei Zhuyu looked like she was out of the palace. Not long after she came out of the palace, he held a horse in his hand, but did not ride, but walked quietly along the street.

Wu Zhen didn't know what he thought, but didn't call him, slowing down his horse speed, followed him slowly, keeping a distance that he would not be discovered by him and would not be lost. She just watched the little Langjun walking alone in silence on the street, occasionally looking up at the elm tree beside the road, and then he stopped in front of a vendor carrying a small load.

There are always vendors carrying loads on the streets, some selling needles, threads, and some selling fresh snacks, some growing fruits and vegetables, and some selling beautiful seasonal flowers and thirst-quenching tea soup. The distance is a bit far, and Wu Zhen only saw the little husband buying some things on the carry, but he didn't know what he bought.

Wu Zhen suddenly grabbed the horse's belly and urged the horse to run a few steps, catching up with Mei Zhuyu. As she got closer, she saw that the pick was filled with early peaches, which were small in size and more blue than red, so she looked sour. The little man held the horse in one hand and wrapped it in a lotus leaf bag with the other hand, and there were more than a dozen green early peaches.

Hearing the sound of horse hooves behind him, he turned his head and looked at him, and it happened to meet Wu Zhen on his horse. His figure paused significantly, and the frosty expression on his face immediately melted.

Wu Zhen pulled the reins of the horse, glanced at the little peach in Mei Zhuyu's hand, and asked naturally: "Is this peach sweet?"

Mei Zhuyu looked at her immediately, and in a daze, and said, "Do you want to eat?"

He lowered his head and chose the one with the most red ones, raised it to hand it to Wu Zhen. However, just as Wu Zhen raised his hand to pick it up, he suddenly retracted his hand. Wu Zhen grabbed a piece of Kaoru and leaned on him, but saw the little man lowering his head and carefully wiped the peach clean, and then handed it to Wu Zhen again.

Wu Zhen took it and took a bite. Sure enough, she was sour. She covered her cheeks and inhaled. Seeing her reaction, Mei Zhuyu also took a peach and took a bite. Her expression was calm and she didn't seem to feel sour.

No matter how Wu Zhen looked at it, he felt that the peach in his hand might only be more sour.

“Not sour?”

Mei Zhuyu answered sincerely: "It's okay." There was an early peach tree in the Taoist temple where he grew up. The fruits were small and sour, but they still looked forward to the fruits of the peach tree every year. That one is much sour than this one, and there is nothing to bear when it comes to eating.

Wu Zhen pinched the sour fruits and looked at the little husband who was gnawing the sour fruits with some pity. I guess, hasn't the little husband eaten any delicious sweet fruits? I had known that I had packed the piles of fruits specially provided to the emperor and the queen in the apricot garden in the palace just now. In this season, the fruits have not grown up yet, and only the places like the palace can eat fresh sweet fruits. There is nowhere to buy them in other places.

He threw the fruit in his hand back into Mei Zhuyu's arms, and Wu Zhen suddenly said, "You go back." Then she rode back towards the palace herself.

Mei Zhuyu didn't know what she was going to do, and guessed that there might be something else, so she could only stand there and watch her figure disappear completely on the corner of the street. Then she withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyelashes a little lonely, and held the fruit that was bitten by Wu Zhen. The hard-earned relationship was too short, which made him at a loss and felt lost.

Then, not long after he returned home, the old slave brought in a basket of red fruits.

"Alang, Mrs. Wu came here just now and said that this basket of fruits will be given to you."

Mei Zhuyu understood why she suddenly turned around and left at that time, and she couldn't help but stand up after a while.

"She's gone?"

"Yes, put down your stuff and leave."

Mei Zhuyu sat down again, picked up a red fruit and took a bite. It was sweet. I wonder if it was too sweet, Mei Zhuyu felt a strange feeling. He felt that a soft vine grew in his body. The crazy-growing branches and leaves made his skin and limbs slightly numb and itchy, and at the same time tied up his heart, which made him feel a little suffocating.

After a long time, Mei Zhuyu breathed out a long breath, sat upright at the table, took out paper and pen, and prepared to copy a few quiet scriptures and calm down.

"Save your desires and your heart will be calm, and your heart will be clear..."

Sure enough, my heart is not clear and my spirit is not clear, so I want to fail to get rid of it.

...

"Mei Si, why are you still procrastinating? Go quickly!"

"Yes, go quickly, we're all waiting. Today you have to invite your cousin out!"

"Hurry, you are still not from our group. We are trying to establish a good relationship with Sister Zhen. You can't drag us down."

Mei Si was pushed out reluctantly by a group of friends, and he was half-willed and moved to the door of his cousin's house. Since the news of Sister Zhen and her cousin's marriage came out, the group of people who often played with Sister Zhen were thinking about finding an opportunity to meet their future "brother-in-law". However, this "brother-in-law" was really low-key. They sent more than a dozen posts one by one, but no response was heard. There was no way, so they could only offer Mei Si.

After all, it was a relative, so if Mei Si went out to invite him in person, he would have to give him some face.

However, Mei Si, who carries everyone's expectations, refused in his heart. He is the most complicated one among this group of people, and that is Sister Zhen! His cousin wants to marry Sister Zhen!

In fact, he is not familiar with this cousin, and his blood relationship is really thin and embarrassing. He has not even clarified the relationship between Sister Zhen and his cousin.

Rationally, I knew that Sister Zhen would be his cousin's sister-in-law in the future, but emotionally, he had the illusion that his cousin became a "sister-in-law". Who told him to regard Sister Zhen as the leader of the elder brother forever?

He was struggling with strange problems all the way, which made Mei Si not very smart enough. When he saw his cousin sitting coldly, he actually called out his brother-in-law.

Mei Zhuyu: "?"
