Daughter of aristocratic family

It was already early in the morning when I returned home from outside the city. The lantern hanging at the door of the house exuded warm light and illuminated the steps at the door of the house.

When they went in and saw Zhao Cui and the others, Zhao Wangshu immediately told them the good news, "Princess Pingyang is willing to go to Princess Chang's Mansion to help her eldest brother propose marriage."

When Mrs. Zhao Cui heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "Great, your eldest brother's marriage can be completed now."

"Yes, waiting to drink brother's wedding wine." Zhao Wangshu smiled and raised his eyebrows.

"By the way, when will the eldest princess go to propose marriage?" Zhao Cui asked.

"The eldest princess asked you to go to the princess's residence the day after tomorrow to discuss the date."

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhao Cui nodded and said, "Okay, okay, we will be there on time the day after tomorrow."

The day after tomorrow, Zhao Wangshu accompanied his family to the Princess Pingyang's mansion. While they were talking, Zhao Wangshu and Yao Shanzhi were drinking tea.

"When spring comes and the flowers bloom, I'll treat you to dinner." Zhao Wangshu said with a smile.

Yao Shanzhi stretched out three fingers and said, "One meal is not enough, at least three meals."

"Ten meals are fine." Zhao Wangshu raised his glass, "Thank you very much."

"You have thanked me many times, please don't thank me again." Yao Shanzhi clinked glasses with her.

After a while, the maid came to report, "Mrs. Zhao and the others are going back."

"Gardenia, see you next year." Zhao Wangshu stood up and said.

Yao Shanzhi pouted, "I'm in good health."

Zhao Wangshu smiled and reached out to touch her face, "Gardenia, be good."

"Yue'er, I'm not a child anymore." Yao Shanzhi stamped her feet.

"Our Gardenia is a big girl now." Zhao Wangshu continued to coax her.

Yao Shanzhi pushed her out, "I'll take you out."

Zhao Wangshu met his family and learned that they had made an appointment with Princess Ping Yang to go to Princess Duan's mansion tomorrow to help Zhao Yin propose marriage.

The next day, the sky was clear and the sky was as blue as water.

Zhao Wangshu brought a gift to Yun Hao and was going to his house to celebrate his birthday. When she went out, she saw Yun Hao coming to pick her up.

Yun Hao was wearing a deep blue brocade robe with a cloak of the same color outside. His black hair was tied with a jade crown. The moment he saw her, his face was expressionless and his smile was as bright as the clear sky.

He walked towards Zhao Wangshu and said, "Wangshu, I'll pick you up."

"What, are you afraid that I won't go?" Zhao Wangshu asked with a playful smile.

"I wanted to see you earlier." Yun Hao said affectionately.

Zhao Wangshu looked at him and smiled sweetly: "I also want to see you soon."

The two got on the carriage. Zhao Wangshu refused to sit side by side with him. Instead, he sat opposite him, holding his chin in his hands and staring at him.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?" Yun Hao touched his face and asked in surprise.

Zhao Wangshu shook his head, "I think you are particularly handsome and fascinating today."

Yun Hao said: "My Wangshu looks beautiful every day."

The carriage was moving slowly on the road, and the two of them were chatting in the carriage. The atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

When they arrived at Yun Mansion, Zhao Wangshu handed him the brocade box. Inside was a portrait of him that she had drawn by herself, "Happy birthday."

Yun Hao opened the brocade box and saw himself riding a horse in the painting. A gentle smile appeared on his face, "I like it very much. Thank you Wang Shu."

"As long as you like it." Zhao Wangshu smiled sweetly. Yun Hao put the painting away and took her hand, "I will take you around the house to get familiar with it."

She nodded in agreement, and the two of them walked together in Yun Mansion.

The Yun Mansion is very large, with pavilions, pavilions, rockery and pools, and every plant and tree is full of emotion. However, in such a large Yun Mansion, there is only one master like Yun Hao.

Yun Hao introduced her to various places in the mansion, giving her a preliminary understanding of the place.

Walking outside a bamboo forest, there was still snow from last night on the bamboo leaves, which were crystal clear in the sun.

Yun Hao said: "My father planted this piece of bamboo with his own hands, and it has been more than 20 years ago." As he said that, he reached out and folded a bamboo leaf and placed it in the palm of her hand.

Zhao Wangshu swept away the ice dirt on the leaves and was surprised to find words on the bamboo leaves. He read them carefully and it said: I would like to share the prosperity of the world with you.

"Did you carve this word on it?"

Yun Hao nodded, "You give me heart-shaped leaves, and I give you bamboo inscriptions."

Zhao Wangshu rolled up the bamboo leaf and put it in his purse, "I want to make it into a bookmark and put it in my favorite book."

The two continued to wander around Yun Mansion. Yun Hao pointed out the scenery in the mansion and told some past events from time to time. Zhao Wangshu listened with interest and gained a deeper understanding of Yun Hao.

Unknowingly, they walked outside an exquisite pavilion with a stone table and benches and a frozen pond next to it.

"This is a place I often came to when I was a kid." Yun Hao recalled the past. "In order not to practice martial arts, I would row the boat to the middle of the pond."

Zhao Wangshu was surprised, "I didn't expect you to be so naughty when you were a child."

Yun Hao smiled and nodded, "Yes, I was very naughty when I was a child and always made my father angry. But this is a good place for me to relax. Sometimes, I will stay on the boat all day and look at the pond. The fish are swimming around.”

"I will accompany you from now on." Zhao Wangshu held his hand.

His father died when he was five years old, and his mother took refuge in a nunnery. Without the care of his parents, little Yun Hao would be so sad.

Yun Hao felt the warmth of her palm, and the loneliness and loneliness deep in his heart seemed to be dispelled.

He hugged her into his arms and whispered in her ear: "Wangshu, never leave me."

"I will always be by your side." Zhao Wangshu hugged him back.

The two hugged each other quietly. Zhao Wangshu saw the clusters of camellias in full bloom next to the pavilion and said, "Yun Hao, pick some flowers for me to wear."

Yun Hao smiled slightly, held her hand, walked over, reached out and picked out a gorgeous camellia, and pinned it in Zhao Wangshu's hair. His eyes were full of smiles, "Although this flower is beautiful, it is not half as good as yours."

Zhao Wangshu stretched out his finger and tapped his lips, "Master Yun, your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter."

"Then Miss Zhao, do you like it?"

"There is such a handsome young master who talks sweet words to me every day. How could I not like it?" Zhao Wangshu smiled wildly.

Next to the camellia, there stood a huge stone with two large characters engraved on it, "Zhi Ge".

Zhao Wangshu looked at those two characters, his writing was powerful and vivid, "These two characters are so well written, you can tell at a glance that they were written by everyone."

"Written by my father." Yun Hao looked at those two words, "On the battlefield, fighting turns to force, and in life, stopping fighting turns to peace."

Yun's father was a military commander with great military exploits, and his son should have become an eagle on the battlefield like him, galloping across the battlefield.

But the emperor refused to let him lead the army, so he not only disbanded the Yun family army, but also trapped him in the capital.

"Stop fighting with force, stop fighting with peace." Zhao Wangshu muttered softly, "Yun Hao, your father is a wise man."

Since ancient times, emperors have been suspicious and always worried about threats to their power and status. They have been wary of those who might threaten them and even taken actions to eliminate these threats.

Yun Hao nodded, "I will always keep his teachings in mind."
