There are sharks in the South China Sea, whose tears turn into beads, and the color purple is especially precious.
According to rumors, its blood is blue, and drinking it can cure all kinds of diseases; eating its meat can keep you looking young.
Humans and sharks do not attack each other, but because they are interested in protecting the emperor Yan Yiyue, they come up with a plan, which leads to an imperial order to hunt down and kill the sharks.
Sharkou held the newborn child in her arms and looked at the situation. In desperation, she took out her Shark Pearl and forcibly transformed the child. Listening to her cries, she couldn't help but drop a purple pearl, and then took out a red piece. Qian Xiao wrapped the child in her arms and handed it to the people on the shore.
"Master Shu, I leave the child to you."
"The life-saving grace I gave you back then will never be repaid in this life. Don't worry, I will treat this child as my own and will never let her suffer any injustice." Shu Yuancun took the infant child and looked at Qiao with a determined expression. back.
"Please give your child a name. If you escape this battle, maybe we can recognize each other in the future."
"An Zhi Ting Lan has cattail blossoms, so let's call it Zhi Han."
Shargo took one last look at the child, suppressed her sadness, and turned to join the battle.
In just a few days, the vast sea surface was stained with shark blood, and the South China Sea turned turquoise.
Since then, all the surviving sharks have secluded themselves from the world, leaving no trace and no one has ever seen them again.
Shu Yuancun was holding the child in his arms and was thinking about how he should take it back to his home so that no one would suspect him.
Perhaps due to the blessing of Queen Shark and the others, news came from the Taishi Mansion that the first lady and the third lady gave birth at the same time. At this moment, the palace was already in chaos.
He learned that all the nuns had gone to the eldest lady's room, but the third lady's room was empty. She was left alone lying on the bed, and the maid next to her was so frightened that she shed tears. .
Shu Yuancun thought that this was an opportunity. He took his reliable Wen Po from outside and carried the child together to the third lady's courtyard while no one was paying attention.
Soon, the good news that the eldest lady had given birth to a son came out in the hospital.
The third lady also received good news about having twin girls.
Grand Master Shu's residence was blessed with three children in one night. The news spread like wildfire, and in an instant, the whole Mingjing city was buzzing with news.
Shu Yuancun roughly told the third wife Chen the origin of the child, and warned that it must not be leaked.
The third lady indeed took good care of the child, but her birth was not noble enough, so her status in the mansion was not high, so the child still received a lot of cold eyes following her.
Sixteen years later.
During these years, Shu Yuancun did everything he could to love and pamper this child.
Until this day.
After the morning court, he and Jiang Cheng were summoned by the emperor to the imperial study to discuss matters.
During that period, I heard Prime Minister Jiang once again mention the capture of the sharks decades ago.
"Your Majesty, I have heard in the public that sharks have started to appear in the market again recently."
Upon hearing this, the emperor's eyes flashed with golden light, "Is this true?"
Prime Minister Jiang clasped his hands in his fists, "I don't dare to deceive the emperor. Rumor has it that this is a female mermaid who is extremely beautiful."
He quietly raised his head and glanced up, the corner of his mouth turned up slightly, "I heard the emperor coughing a little in the court just now, but I have been suffering from the cold recently. I thought, if I capture that female shark, I will always be by your side. On the other hand, it may have the effect of strengthening the body.”
The emperor felt delighted after hearing this, as if the beautiful lady was already standing in front of him.
He glanced at Shu Yuancun, who was standing silently, and raised his hand, "Shu Aiqing, I see you haven't said a word for a long time, but do you have any objections?"
Shu Yuancun immediately saluted respectfully and said, "I don't dare."
"Forget it, let's leave this matter to Jiang Aiqing."
Prime Minister Jiang responded loudly and proudly: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will definitely handle this matter perfectly."
Seeing his confident look, the emperor suddenly felt very good and kept stroking his short beard.
After a moment, he changed the topic again, "By the way, there is news from the border town that Luo Jinyu has made military exploits again this time. Please think about what kind of gift you can bestow on me, please?"
Grand Master Shu cupped his fists and bowed his waist slightly. Just as he was about to speak, Prime Minister Jiang stopped him. "Reporting to the Emperor, I thought that General Anyuan was already a weak man and had been guarding the border all year round. I could give him a command." I wonder what the Emperor’s wishes are regarding the marriage?”
The emperor nodded slightly after hearing this, "Yes, Jiang Aiqing's idea is a good one, Shu Aiqing, what do you think?"
"What the emperor said is absolutely true, but I wonder which daughter the emperor would prefer?" Shu Yuancun's eyes were a little dodgey.
I'm afraid no one in the entire Mingjing City knows that there are four girls in the Shu Mansion. They all look the same as the other, and they are all of marriageable age.
How could Prime Minister Jiang not see his dodge? This was all a trap he deliberately set, just to ask such a question for the emperor.
He immediately took a step forward with a smile, "Your Majesty, I heard that the daughters of Grand Master Shu can all sleep in shame. They look like fish and geese. Now they have reached the age of marriage."
As he spoke, he looked at Shu Yuancun, waiting to see what would happen next.
As expected, the emperor clapped his hands happily after hearing this, "Yes, Shu Aiqing, what do you think?"
"Back to the emperor, none of my daughters can stand up to the stage. I am afraid they are not worthy of the brave General Anyuan."
"Hey, Shu Aiqing, you are being too modest. It's settled that your legitimate daughter will be betrothed to General Anyuan."
Shu Yuancun went back full of thoughts. He couldn't be happy along the way. He was extremely upset thinking about the emperor's search for the shark again and the marriage.
In the garden of Taishi Shu's Mansion.
Shu Zhihan was sitting on the stern of the boat, flipping through the newly acquired story book in her hand, and looking at the plot about killing the sharks, she felt inexplicably sad, thinking about it but couldn't get a clue.
She looked at the storybook, and every word in it was like a small needle pricking her heart. The pain was indescribable.
She couldn't help but cover her heart and couldn't help but ask herself, why is this happening? It's as if you are experiencing it yourself.
Looking at the pool of water in front of me, it is as clear as jade. A cool breeze blows across the water. The green lotus leaves on the water are surrounded by clusters of pink and purple lotus swaying in the wind.
She looked at this scene and felt peaceful in her heart.
Shu Zhihan looked at the pink lotuses standing still in the pond, stretched out her hand to touch the cool water, and felt a burst of softness, and her fluctuating heart seemed to calm down instantly.
She looked at the blue color in her hand and felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but at the same time mixed with a trace of gratuitous sadness.
"This pond full of flowers is really cute, but no matter how beautiful it is, it's not half as good as my sister Han." Xiao Heyi stood in the small pavilion and looked at Shu Zhihan on the boat.
Wearing a bright yellow dress, sitting alone at the stern of the boat, she looked particularly agile like the stars holding the moon.
Shu Zhihan was startled by the sudden sound. She raised her head slightly and saw a ball of red jumping out from behind the pillar. Looking at the person in front of her, she couldn't help but frown slightly and scolded: "You're not doing this. Did you want to scare me to death by appearing out of nowhere?"
"Oh, I don't want to tease you, but what kind of storybook are you reading? You're so confused."
"I haven't seen you for many days, but you still haven't changed, and you're still that dumb." Shu Zhihan couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, "Why did you come here suddenly, but you made a mistake again?"
The man standing in front of her was dressed in red, flamboyant and flamboyant. His handsome face was especially fair. His peach blossom eyes made it clear at a glance that he was a romantic and passionate man. There was also a frivolous smile at the corner of his mouth from time to time. Yi, a cynical, romantic and uninhibited playboy.
"My sister Han, when you say that about me, do you know how much my heart hurts?" Xiao Heyi clutched his chest tightly with his hands, looking heartbroken.
Shu Zhihan rolled her eyes at him indifferently, "Xiao Heyi, if I hadn't known you since you wore crotchless pants, I would have believed your pretense."
"Okay, I surrender. I was wrong. My good sister, don't bury me too much. At least you can save some face for me." Xiao Heyi raised his hands in a gesture of surrender.
"I don't dare. In this bright capital, who dares to say anything about you, Second Young Master Xiao? If you want to tell me who is the most popular person in the capital, it must be you, Second Young Master Xiao."
Xiao Heyi stretched out his hand and gently tapped her forehead, and said with a doting look on his face: "You are so sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued just in front of me. By the way, what are you looking at? You are so entranced." ?”
Shu Zhihan shook the storybook in her hand, "Here, this is it."
She looked erratic and shook her head subconsciously, "I don't know what happened. I felt very distressed when I saw what was written in the storybook. Especially when I saw the turquoise water in the pond, I felt... It’s an indescribable feeling, as if my throat is stuck and I feel like crying.”
Hearing her words, Xiao Heyi couldn't help but burst out laughing, as if he had heard a big joke, "I said sister Han, don't be ridiculous. By the way, you have cried since you were a child." ?"
"I hate it, don't tell you anymore."
Shu Zhihan stood up immediately, gently lifted up her skirt and stepped onto the shore, glared at him with a pout, then turned and left.
Not being able to cry has been her Achilles' heel since she was a child. It's not that she doesn't want to cry, she doesn't understand it, she doesn't seem to have the ability to cry.
Even when the third wife, Mrs. Chen, passed away, she felt very uncomfortable and wanted to cry, but she tried various methods but could not shed a single tear.
At that time, people may have thought that she was still young and therefore did not understand, but looking back carefully, it seems that no matter what happened, she never shed a tear.
So much so that her eldest sister and second sister never looked at her, and even laughed at her as a monster.
