After the hero goes crazy

Lu Zhi didn't even have time to think about his state of mind, he ignored Wen Jingsui, but looked up into the distance - it was Wen's mansion.

At this time, it was just dawn and it was raining heavily. If a frail scholar like Wen Jingsui didn't stay at home and read the Four Books and Five Classics, preparing for next year's autumn, why would he wander around when he went out?
""University", "The Doctrine of the Mean"...have you read it? Have you learned the Six Arts?"

Shizi muttered unhappily.

"Brother? Brother?"

After Wen Jingsui finished speaking, seeing that the other party ignored him, he couldn't help shouting a few more words softly.

The sound of the rain 'crashing' not only interfered with people's sight, but also interfered with his hearing.

He vaguely seemed to hear the person in front of him muttering something, as if he mentioned the words '"University", Six Arts" and so on.

—Could it be that he is a scholar?
Wen Jing wiped his face and went to see him again.

In the heavy rain, the water vapor formed heavy rain and fog, but he could vaguely see that the person in front of him was extremely tall.

He is considered tall among men, but the person in front of him is half a head taller than him.

The coir raincoat draped over his body was soaked, and the rain was dripping down the sides of his shoulders.

Most of the man's face was blocked by the bamboo hat, only a white and pointed chin was exposed, without a beard, and it was very delicate.

A head of long black hair was wetted by the rain and wrapped around his back, looking black and smooth, like the best brocade.

Young, strong, and seemingly handsome.

At this moment, a person quickly appeared in Wen Jingsui's mind——Lu Zhi, the eldest son of Dingguo Shenwu General's Mansion.

This person is not as good as a weak crown, and he seems to have practiced martial arts since childhood. According to rumors, he has a beautiful appearance and is extremely sought after by ladies in the capital of God.

He once saved Liu's life in the Xicheng case that day.

As soon as this thought came to Wen Jing Sui's mind, he was immediately alert.

It was still dark, and it was raining heavily. There are all the residences of officials of the Daqing Dynasty in the vicinity, so it is impossible to enter here by mistake.

He came from the alley, and Yao's house was deep in the alley.

Thinking of this, Wen Jingsui immediately became certain: this person came from the Yao family.

"Brother—"

He already had calculations in his heart, so he no longer showed a gentle face like before, and his eyes showed a bit of rivalry, and he took a step forward:
"Are you OK?"

Under the bamboo hat, Lu Zhi raised his eyebrows, and heard the temptation in Wen Jing's casual words.

The young and famous talent may have guessed his identity, and he deliberately provoked him at this time.

It seemed that not only he could not get used to Wen Jingsui, but the eldest son of the Wen family also seemed hostile to him.

Before he had time to think about the reason, Dang even complied with his heart and chuckled lightly:
"Ah--"

The son's voice was cold, like a jade stone hitting each other:
"The two collided, and it wasn't me who had something to do." He was very confident in his own strength, and after finishing speaking, he deliberately asked a question:
"It didn't hit you, did it?"

Wen Jingsui's expression was startled, and he could hear the unkindness in Lu Zhi's words.

His shoulder was indeed aching, but what made Wen Jingsui feel even worse was his heart.

The person in front of him was strong and rebellious, like a lion with great ambitions, intent on encroaching on his territory.

Wen Jingsui collected himself, then suppressed the uneasiness that seemed to be offended in his heart, cupped his hands, and said with a warm smile:

"It's fine."

He reminded in a side-by-side manner: "At this time, it is windy and rainy, and the sky is not yet bright. The ground in this alley is not level, so you must be careful when walking in Xiongtai."

"It's nothing!" The son was full of fighting spirit at this time, and he was even more cautious than when facing Chen Taiwei:

"Since the ground is uneven, after the wind calms and the rain stops, I will ask people to rest the road to see if it dares to make me fall."

One speaks with meaning and hides a needle in the cotton; while the other is young, wild and full of arrogance.

As soon as the two finished speaking, they looked at each other through the rain curtain, and their hearts were filled with anger.

Wen Jing follows everyone like his surname, with a cold and gentle temperament, he is a modest gentleman.

But at this moment, he couldn't help but feel turbulent and angry.

"At this time, the sky is not yet bright, and I feel that the young master is a bit unfamiliar. I don't know what to do here?"

"I'm here to see—" Lu Zhi said a few words to him, feeling angry in his heart, always felt that Wen Jingsui was not pleasing to the eye, and wanted to teach him a lesson.

Thinking of this, he subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch the side of his waist, but the touch was empty.

Only then did he remember that his portable sword had been lost in King Qi's tomb during the fight with Chen Taiwei.

Shizi felt angry for no reason, and heard Wen Jingsui ask him why he came, halfway through, he suddenly remembered that Yao Shouning was a young girl who hadn't left the court after all.

He couldn't say that the two went out at night, but she didn't return overnight.

So the words come to the lips, and then become:
"a friend."

He said confidently, and looked up at Wen Jingsui through the bamboo hat, with a bit of pride.

"What about you?" He asked back:

"It's not yet dawn, and it's raining so hard. What are you going to do when you go out so early?"

Wen Jingsui seemed to be fascinated by the water mist, squinted his eyes, and then smiled with a good temper:
"I want to meet my—" he said here, paused, and finally said in a deep voice, "the person I like."

Lover!
These three words are extremely lethal to Lu Zhi.

The smug smile on his face froze, and his expression became a little embarrassed.

When the two collided before, Wen Jingsui was not as strong as him, and he was forced to stagger back, but at this moment, under Wen Jingsui's words, his shoulders collapsed, his body shook twice, and he couldn't stand still.

"..."

The corners of Wen Jingsui's mouth hooked unconsciously, then took a step forward, and said again:

"Our two families have a verbal agreement, and we will only get engaged after the scientific examination next year." He added, and then bowed his hands again to make an apology:

"It's thunderous and rainy tonight. I'm afraid I'll disturb her, so I want to pay a visit. When I see a stranger passing by this alley, I'll be more vigilant. I hope my brother will forgive me."

'Clatter——' The rain was so heavy that it hit the roof and made a 'cracking' sound. Wen Jingsui's back was straight, and his tone was gentle, but his words seemed to contain the meaning of a sword:
"But I think Xiongtai's temperament is like Zhilan, not like that unbearable villain—" He pointed out something, and then laughed:

"That's why I said a few words of warning after I offended: the wind is heavy and the rain is heavy, the place is muddy and uneven, brother, walk carefully!"

"How do you know I'm not a villain?"

Lu Zhi was almost defeated by Wen Jingsui's three words 'the person he likes'. The more he listened to him at this time, the more unhappy he became, so he asked again.

Wen Jingsui just smiled, seemingly calm and relaxed.

The son was angry and flustered, and for the first time in his life, he felt a sense of being at a disadvantage.

"Hmph!" Shizi's expression darkened, and he was a little glad that he was wearing a bamboo hat to hide his embarrassment:

"You missed it."

Holding on to his momentum, he turned around and left after saying this.

Behind him, Wen Jingsui seemed to be looking at him through the heavy rain, Shizi's footsteps were staggering, he tried to stay calm at first, but then he walked more and more anxiously.

'The person I like'...

'The person I like'...

'The person I like'...

The three words echoed in his mind like a curse, whipping his heart and making his eyes bloodshot.

Although Lu Zhi was dissatisfied on the surface, he knew in his heart that he fled in embarrassment.

He vaguely seemed to realize something, but he refused to admit it.

In the torrential rain, Wen Jingsui stood where he was, watching Lu Zhi's figure walk away quickly.

Even though he didn't see Lu Zhi's face, and didn't ask his name, but with the man's sensitivity, he still guessed Lu Zhi's identity and confirmed that he might be his rival in love.

"Rival..."

Wen Jingsui sighed softly, and the gentle and firm smile he had originally had when facing Lu Zhi gradually faded away, turning into a look of disappointment.

In the previous confrontation, it seemed that his sharp words had the upper hand, but both parties were probably aware of each other's existence.

He and Yao Shouning seem to be very close, but their names have not been determined after all.

Mrs. Wen's actions that day pushed her further away.

Later, I heard that the son went crazy in public and beat the people in Prince Jian's mansion who came to make trouble. Compared with the two, whoever wins and who loses, anyone with a discerning eye knows in their hearts.

If the prince has no intentions towards Yao Shouning, let it be, the Yao family will only be grateful to him;

But if he has feelings for Yao Shouning, with Mrs. Wen's actions that day as a comparison, the situation will naturally be more beneficial to the son.

It is precisely because of this that Wen Jingsui did not say the word 'fiancee' out of impulse.

He likes Yao Shouning.

This kind of liking began to be cultivated when she knew that she might be his future wife.

He was sure that the two families would get married. He intentionally indulged his own desires, and then inadvertently spied on Yao Shouning's temperament. She was innocent, lively, kind and sensible. She was pampered and raised by her family, but she was not arrogant and willful. Such a girl , who doesn't like it?

He likes it more and more, after so many years, it has long been difficult to restrain it.

Who would have thought that there would be twists and turns in this matter?
What's the use of showing off the advantage of the tongue for a while?If he was really so confident, why bother to explain his relationship with Yao Shouning to an irrelevant person?

After all, it was because he cared too much about it, so he lost his sense of proportion.

'Wow--'

As the rain poured down, Wen Jingsui's smile disappeared, the look in his eyes faded, and a layer of uneasiness and melancholy shrouded his expression.

He met Lu Zhi, and dealt with this prince who has been plagued by rumors recently. Although he didn't see his face, he could feel that this prince had a firm personality, and he was not a pompous or vicious person.

With outstanding temperament and good looks, he is a great enemy to the Yao family.

"Shouning..."

He sighed softly, and under the cover of the rain, he whispered Yao Shouning's name.

Under this cry, there is no sweetness in my heart, only sorrow and anxiety.

The mist filled the rain, making the sky even darker—just like his future, he already had no way out.

He went to Yao's house in despair, and stood at the back door of Yao's house.

I saw that the back door was closed tightly, and the rain under the eaves was like a curtain, but at the gate that was supposed to be protected by the eaves, there was a puddle of wet water, as if someone had stepped on it.

Wen Jingsui was even more shocked when he thought of Lu Zhi who had left here earlier.

He stood for a while, and finally turned around in silence and turned back.

On the other side, after Mrs. Wen quarreled with her son, she was caught by his aura, and before she could stop her, she saw her son rushing out of the house.

She was stunned for a long time, until Wen Xianrong Wen Xun arrived, and the mother and daughter heard that Wen Jingsui had gone out, so they rushed to look for him.

But halfway there, he saw Wen Jingsui who was in a daze.

"Big brother!"

Wen Xianrong called out happily.

But her elder brother didn't respond.

He seemed to have suffered a great blow, his shoulders drooped, his face was pale, and his eyes seemed to lose their spirit.

Wen Xianrong has never seen his confident and calm elder brother like this.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?"

"Son, don't scare me..." Mrs. Wen panicked when she saw her son like this.

The mother and daughter, one on the left and the other on the right, hurried forward to help his arm.

"I'm fine..."

Wen Jingsui shook his head, trying to force a smile to appease his family, but the corner of his mouth weighed more than a thousand catties, and he couldn't lift it at all.

"Big brother..."

"I..." Wen Jingsui's eye circles were red, thinking of the previous scene, he choked up:

"Mom, I really like her and I don't want to lose her..."

Mrs. Wen had raised her son for many years, and it was the first time she saw her son showing such a helpless expression.

At this time, she would rather her son talk back to herself, even if she was so angry that she was furious, it would be better than the current appearance.

"Mother understands, let mother think about it, let mother think about it..."

Wen Xianrong's eyes fell on his mother and elder brother, and from these few words, he had already guessed some clues.

The mother had already put on a gesture of 'giving in'. After hearing this, the eldest brother's eyes showed a little brilliance, but Wen Xianrong sighed secretly, hesitant to speak.

She was born in an old-fashioned family like the Wen family, and was brought up by Mrs. Wen alone, but with a future mother-in-law like Liu, and a quirky boudoir friend like Yao Shouning, she also cultivated her to be far superior in a certain way. Mrs. Wen's grasp of human nature and cleverness.

Compared with her mother's optimism, she saw the hidden crux of the problem.

Mrs. Wen's life is very smooth.

Although her husband has a stubborn temper, he has an upright character, respects her, and is responsible for the family.

Her two sons and daughters are also well-behaved and obedient, and the son is very competitive, which has raised her noble heart.

But she forgot that everything in this life was not as she wished.

The wife of the Yao family is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

How could Liu's daughter, who was raised in the palm of her hand, allow others to pick and choose?

Mrs. Wen said too much last time, maybe the time for the elder brother has long passed.

"..."

She glanced at the eldest brother whose eyes were rekindled with hope because of Mrs. Wen's words, and then glanced at the mother who was coaxing her son in a low voice, moved her lips, and swallowed the words that came to her lips.

Mother, in this world, many things are not what you want.

Shouning is very good, not your choice under compromise!

Wen Xianrong lowered his head and touched the bottom of the umbrella. For the first time in his life, he felt a little pitiful for his always perfect elder brother.

The eldest brother is really good, but unfortunately, his life is not very good, and his mother dragged him back.

Ugh--
