Shang Shaoyan was happy in his heart, so he couldn't help but put on a smile on his face, but he still refused: "You should take care of your own affairs. If I'm not wrong, you're probably going back to Bei Zhou soon."

According to Shang Shaoyan's knowledge, the third prince of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, that is, Qiao Xiuyu's brother, has already entered into a fierce battle with several other contenders for the crown prince. go back.

Qiao Xiuyu sighed: "Indeed..."

Shang Shaoyan tapped his forehead funny: "Why are you sighing? It's not a farewell. It's not worth your frowning."

"As long as I think about being separated from you for so long, I feel uncomfortable." Qiao Xiuyu said, holding Shang Shaoyan's fingertips with some hesitation, seeing that the latter did not refuse, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "An'an, I really like you."

Shang Shaoyan was about to hold Qiao Xiuyu's hand back, but when he heard the words, he paused, feeling a little helpless—it's not that she doesn't like Qiao Xiuyu, but this is ancient times, unlike the 21st century, when you want to talk and sleep, if you want If the two are not suitable, they can still break up and divorce, which is not a good thing in this world now.

Furthermore... Shang Shaoyan thought calmly, Qiao Xiuyu has a special status, he is the prince of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, if he is really with him, he will become a concubine and be imprisoned in the backyard of the deep palace, this is not her want.

She doesn't want to be anyone's wife, she just wants to be herself.

So until she stood at a high enough position, Shang Shaoyan couldn't respond to Qiao Xiuyu's feelings.

But she still couldn't bear it, raised her hand to caress Qiao Xiuyu's exquisite eyebrows, and sighed with a smile: "It's not that I don't like you, it's just that I have something to do. I'm not willing to marry at this age, let alone have to pay Go back to Northern Zhou with you, and die of old age in the deep palace compound... I wanted to ask you to wait for me for two years, but I also know that this is not fair to you. I can't delay you for my own sake."

The look in her eyes couldn't be more serious, Qiao Xiuyu looked at her, and found a trace of guilt in her eyes.

Qiao Xiuyu laughed, and then sat down, huddled on a swing with Shang Shaoyan, a little crowded, their body temperature and breathing were entangled with each other, but Shang Shaoyan didn't feel disgusted.

Qiao Xiuyu pondered for a moment before slowly saying: "Actually, I didn't live well in the past, and I was often bullied."

Shang Shaoyan tilted his head and looked at him, a little puzzled——Qiao Xiuyu is the direct prince, so the people in the palace should not dare to neglect him.

Qiao Xiuyu understood the doubt in Shang Shaoyan's eyes, and explained with a smile: "My mother gave birth to me in the temple. At that time, my father was not enthroned, so I was thrown into the river by an uncle. Hu Shuxiang's family adopted me and raised me."

After a pause, he said: "It's not that I haven't lived a happy life... When I was five years old, the wife of that family became pregnant and gave birth to a boy. It should have been a happy and happy life, but the bad thing is An old Taoist came out of nowhere and said that my fate and that child’s destiny was inseparable. If the old Taoist took me away, maybe the child would still have a chance to survive. Although they love me, they always care more about their own children, so it is understandable to send me away. "

Shang Shaoyan felt distressed when he heard it, and silently held Qiao Xiuyu's hand.

Qiao Xiuyu continued: "I didn't know until I was taken away by the old Taoist. It was my uncle who discovered my existence and wanted to wipe me out. I tried my best to escape from them, but found that I had nowhere to go..."

Seeing that Shang Shaoyan's eyes were already a little red, Qiao Xiuyu hurriedly said: "Ah, it's actually not a big deal. I was taken back by my father and queen two years later. I have been living well since I was eight years old."

Shang Shaoyan wanted to ask a few more questions, but she remained silent.

She didn't dare to get involved in Qiao Xiuyu's past, otherwise it would be even more difficult to get out.

Qiao Xiuyu smiled, and didn't care about Shang Shaoyan's silence: "In short, I cherish everything in the world since I was a child, even if they don't belong to me; but because of those bad memories, it's hard for me to cherish a People. An'an, what I want to say is...you are one of the few people I cherish very much, I don't want to embarrass you, you don't have to feel sorry for me, and you don't have to feel that you will delay me. "

He smiled, and put his hair behind his ear for Shang Shaoyan, extremely gentle: "I always knew that I was not a smart person, but perhaps my greatest advantage is my patience, I am willing to wait for you, An An. Your appearance is not what I expected, and I believe that I am also an accident in your life. But this is the greatest joy of life."

After a pause, he joked, "Unless you don't want me anymore, then I will never pester you."

After Shang Shaoyan heard these words, he only felt pain in his heart.

Why isn't Qiao Xiuyu smart?He is clearly the most transparent and purest person in the world, and he really knows what "love" is.

Although he is not in love with her yet, he is so sincere and loves the world so much.

Shang Shaoyan settled down, then leaned on Qiao Xiuyu's shoulder, and said seriously: "Don't worry, I won't want you."

He repeated like a promise: "I will never want you."

……

On the day Shang Shaoyan set off, the sun was rarely seen in Shengjing. Although the weather was still cold, it was not far away from spring, so Shang Shaoyan didn't bring too many heavy clothes, except for Shang Yunlan who was taken from the library. The few books that were copied down, some gold and silver, and nothing else.

It was Bailu and Baifeng who went to Shuzhou with Shang Shaoyan. When Li Mama saw him off, she had a sad face: "County Lord, the mountains in Shudi are high and the roads are far away. I heard that the people are tough, so you must be careful with your weak appearance." .”

Shang Yunlan who was listening on the side: "..."

To die of laughter, no matter how powerful a person is, Shang Shaoyan can defeat a hundred with one.

Shang Shaoyan secretly glanced at Shang Yunlan, and then nodded obediently to Nanny Li.

Nanny Li checked the luggage again, and then sighed: "Why did the county lord bring such a small amount of things? Is it enough?"

Shang Shaoyan said with a smile: "Enough, enough, what is really missing, just buy it on the road."
