Frost shines on Qingcheng

Jingyu lay stiffly beside Shen Shuangzhao all night, and she fell into a light sleep near dawn.Not long after sleeping, she woke up again.Turning his face, he saw Shen Shuangzhao's sleeping profile.

At this moment, the surroundings are very quiet, looking at Shen Shuangzhao, Jingyu's thoughts can't help but drift back to the day when she first met her.

That was four years ago.During that time, the master was not in Bihai City for a long time, only the suzerain was in the city.Although she was the Lord's personal maid and knew kung fu, but that time was unusual, she did not travel with the Lord.

Later, the suzerain also left the city, and she knew that the two had gone to Shuilan City to discuss an alliance.I thought this was nothing more than normal, but I never thought that one day later, I suddenly saw the army leaving the city one by one, and then there was news that Shuilan City had been breached.

By the time the lord let her go to Shuilan City, it was already the night of the lord's wedding day.That night, she went up to Qingshuang Hall with the Lord, and saw Shen Shuangzhao for the first time.

At that time, Shen Shuangzhao was seriously injured and had a high fever, her face was bloodstained, and her clothes were messy, Jingyu almost thought that this was a little beggar picked up by the Lord.

What surprised her was that the always arrogant and ruthless Lord personally took a handkerchief and soaked it in water to wipe her face meticulously. The "little beggar" was still babbling in a coma, and she could only hear vague pleadings like "don't go", but the name she had been thinking about all the time, Jingyu, was never clear.It's really distressing to hear.

It was only later that she gradually understood the ins and outs of the matter, but what puzzled her was the relationship between the Lord and her.

Undoubtedly, Luo Qi killed Shen Shuangzhao's senior sister, snatched away her lover, invaded Shuilan City, and caused Shen Wanrong to become what she is now. Shen Shuangzhao must have hated the master deeply, but the master treats her feelings are much more complicated.

If it is said that the Lord hates her, that is not true.After all these years, the lord has not treated Shen Shuang well, everything is the best in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and he even made her the city lord.But the Lord doesn't seem to love her either, otherwise, how could the Lord hold back from touching her in these four years?After all, there are still so many girls in Bihai City.

Perhaps, as Shen Shuangzhao said last night - Luo Qi has always regarded Shen Shuangzhao as a dog, a beloved dog.Although she treats her well, eats, drinks, and takes good care of her, she is never allowed to betray herself. She wants to "lead" her and control everything about her.Furthermore, it was precisely because he regarded Shen Shuangzhao as a dog that even though Luo Qi doted on her, he would not do certain things with her.After all, in Luo Qi's eyes, the two of them are not equal - she is the master, and Shen Shuangzhao will always be a puppet crawling under her feet.

Jingyu frowned, in fact, why isn't she?

Just thinking about it, Shen Shuangzhao turned over and woke up from the dream.According to habit, she straightened up and leaned against the head of the bed for a while to relax.

"City Lord..." Seeing her wake up, Jingyu immediately got up and knelt down on the ground.

Shen Shuangzhao's eyes were sleepy, if Jingyu hadn't taken the initiative to speak up, she might not have remembered forcibly forcing Jingyu to share the same bed with her last night.

Jingyu looked up at Shen Shuangzhao, rubbed her eyes, yawned, and lowered her head silently.

"It was hard for you last night. Get up. Go back to rest today, and arrange for someone else to take over what you have to do." Recalling last night, Shen Shuangzhao was inevitably a little embarrassed. After drinking, she would always have some unreasonable things happen Come.

Jingyu didn't care about being tired, what she was thinking about was the punishment she received after the Lord returned from Bihai City.

……

After three days, Luo Qi did come back from Bihai City.Since the invasion of Qingcheng and Shuilan City four years ago, Luo Qi has lived here often. On the contrary, it was Bihai City where she grew up, and Luo Qi only went back two or three times a month.

The regular meeting in the morning ended, and Shen Shuangzhao and Zhang Shan walked out of the main hall and were still discussing business matters: "The east wall of the city is damaged and collapsed, you send people to repair it quickly, otherwise the yellow plum season will come in a while..." The two came out and did not leave After a few steps, Shen Shuangzhao heard the voice she didn't want to hear the most before she finished speaking halfway.

"If you can't memorize such a few things, how will you control Bihai in the future?" Luo Qi's stern voice came from the hall a few meters away, "If you can't remember this sentence, don't eat your lunch It's..."

Shen Shuangzhao stopped in her tracks, and did not continue in the middle of her speech.Zhang Shan stood still with her, apparently he also heard Luo Qi's voice, and knew what Shen Shuangzhao was thinking.

A child's cry soon came from the hall, Shen Shuangzhao frowned, then turned around and left.She didn't want to see Luo Qi, and she was always afraid to avoid her.

"Shen Shuangzhao!" Before she could go far, she was spotted.Luo Qi came out of the hall, and his slightly angry voice became more real and clear, filling Shen Shuangzhao's ears.

Zhang Shan glanced at Shen Shuangzhao, Shen Shuangzhao sighed silently, and said to Zhang Shan: "You should know what to do about the city wall. If there is nothing else, you should go back first."

"Yes..." Zhang Shan agreed, he also hated Luo Qi.If it is possible, one day, he will definitely get rid of her, and the hatred of the country and the family will be settled once.

Zhang Shan left, Shen Shuangzhao turned around helplessly: "What's the matter?"

Luo Qi walked towards her and said with a smile, "You know I'm back, why didn't you come to find me?"

"You are not here these few days, and you are looking for me for every detail in the city. I am too busy, how can I have time to take care of you?" Shen Shuangzhao answered in a neutral manner, unable to grasp a trace of her emotions.

Luo Qi sneered: "Isn't it hard for you to live without me? It's so hard that I have to use the body of my personal maid to relieve your pressure."

"It seems that the maids in my dormitory should be replaced, otherwise, how could such privateness of the bed fall into your ears?" Shen Shuang replied with a smile on her face, "Or, Jingyu has such a Hobbies, I like to share with you..."

Luo Qi took a deep breath: "You still want me to whip you, don't you? But I don't have time to pay attention to you today, I brought a little doll back, and I need to behave well for her."

"..." Shen Shuangzhao had no interest in this, and wanted to leave in a hurry without saying a word.

Luo Qi smiled, just looking at her leaving back.Afterwards, she stepped into the hall again and asked, "You'er, do you still remember what to call me?"

"Auntie..." Luo You stared blankly at Luo Qi with black and white eyes, and there were still tears in her eyes from crying just now.

Shen Shuangzhao hadn't gone far, when she heard the conversation between the two of them, her heart sank instantly.If so, that child, wouldn't it be... She clenched her fists, and her nails poked her fingers sorely.

afternoon——

Shen Shuang took care of the books, concentrating on studying various difficult and obscure medical books.During the war that year, Shen Wanrong was injured and managed to save her life, but she seemed to have lost her soul, leaving only an empty shell.

In the past few years, Shen Shuangzhao not only visited famous doctors for Shen Wanrong, but also learned medical skills by herself.She couldn't bear the fact that her mother had become a piece of wood that couldn't speak, cry, or laugh. Shen Wanrong was her only hope in life, and she had to get better.

After finishing a book and just closing the book, Shen Shuangzhao remembered the scene outside the hall in the morning.I don't know, but the little doll has memorized all the books.If not, according to Luo Qi's punishment, such a young child...

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became, Shen Shuangzhao wandered around the room for a while, but decided to run to have a look.

"City Lord..." The maids outside the palace saluted respectfully when they saw her.

Shen Shuangzhao asked: "Is there a child inside?"

"Yes."

Shen Shuangzhao: "How long has the child been inside?"

"My lord rushed back overnight yesterday, and she slept with the child in her arms last night. Early this morning, my lord took the child to learn to read and write inside. After counting, it has been two and a half hours."

"So long? Can I have lunch at noon?"

"Go back to the city lord, because the lady can't memorize the book, the lord is very angry, and ordered the servants not to eat for the lady."

Shen Shuangzhao nodded: "I see." After saying that, she walked inside.

In the empty hall, Luo You was the only one standing with a book.Her little face was covered with wet or dried tears.

Is it her daughter?Counting it, Luo You is also three years old... Shen Shuangzhao approached her step by step, and finally sat on the ground.

Luo You only glanced at Shen Shuang with tears in her eyes, and then she continued to look down at the book.

Shen Shuangzhao looked at Luo You through the light outside - even though she looked cute and cute, it was a pity that she didn't look like that person, and there was no trace of that person.Between the sadness, there is also a trace of loss.

"Is You'er hungry?" Shen Shuangzhao squatted on the ground, her hands gently hugging Luo You, her voice was quite gentle, "May I take you to eat?"

Luo You shook her head again and again, the tears she had finally held back were about to burst again, and she said in a deep cry: "Auntie said that you can't eat and rest until you finish reciting."

Shen Shuangzhao gazed at her tenderly, stroked her soft hair: "How old is You'er?"

Luo You looked at her resentfully, then stretched out three fingers to answer her.

Shen Shuang took care of the little person in her arms, took the book from her hand after much deliberation, and then hugged her: "We won't recite, I will take you to dinner."

Luo You lay on her shoulder without saying a word.

Just as Luo Qi was about to enter the palace gate, he happened to run into Shen Shuangzhao who came out with the child in his arms.

"Where are you taking her without my permission?" Luo Qi stood in front of her, showing no intention of giving in.

Shen Shuangzhao said: "I heard that she stood for several hours without eating. The child is so young, she won't be able to bear it."

"Can't stand it?" Luo Qi seemed to have heard a joke, "I used to come here like this. I can do it, why can't she?"

"She is only three years old, and she can't even speak well, yet you let her be taught such difficult words, Luo Qi, you are clearly trying to make things difficult for her." Shen Shuangzhao aggressively told what she believed to be the truth.

Luo Qi raised his eyebrows and looked at her, his words were thorny: "Why, can't bear it? Because it's her child, do you feel so distressed?"

Shen Shuangzhao turned her head to the side, first pursed her lips tightly and said nothing, then raised her eyes and looked at Luo Qi calmly: "Yes, I love her child so much."

Luo Qi snorted coldly: "I am still related to her by blood, how about you? Shen Shuangzhao, don't forget that the child in your arms is not named Shen, but Luo."
