Can't see the sun, can't see anything else, everything is him, suffocating, panting, smelling of alcohol...
Shen Que felt that everything in front of him was black, his head was buzzing, and the world was spinning.
She never thought that he would go crazy like this. This was the palace, and now it was a palace banquet, but he was so bold.
No, it's not bold, he has always been like this, he has always been careless.
The man's strength was getting stronger and stronger, and she couldn't resist. She couldn't even move. She could only be wrapped in him like that, just like before, he talked to himself and never asked her what she thought or what she wanted.
At that moment, Shen Que felt that his whole body was cold, and his hands and feet were also cold. He simply gave up resisting and resisted silently, silently shedding tears and letting him do whatever he wanted.
despair.
After two breaths, Li Luansong probably regained some sense, or perhaps noticed her silent resistance and slowly stopped moving.
The wrist that was holding her head was released. The moment he left her body, Shen Que hurriedly withdrew his arm, pushed him away, and left in a hurry.
Again, he didn't even give him a look. Li Luansong thought, it would be great if he could scold him a few words.
Endless sadness hit him overwhelmingly. Li Luansong wiped away the lipstick from the corner of his lips, and his heart overflowed with unwillingness. His madness and loss of control must have made Shen Zhen extremely angry and disappointed.
However, she didn't scold him.
regret.
He didn't believe that she would really never talk to him again, and wanted to use this method to anger her. Even if she beat him hard and let out the anger in her heart, everything would be easy.
However, she chose to resist silently. Her silence was so terrifying, and there was deep despair underneath.
Shen Que fled in despair, unable to calm down the excitement in his heart, and his steps were a little flustered and staggering.
She didn't expect that Li Luansong would go crazy like this. She just wanted to escape quickly without being seen.
As he walked, he straightened his hair and clothes.
"Ms. Shen."
A familiar voice called her, and Shen Que shivered in fright.
Looking up, it was Mutam, looking at her with a smile on his face.
Shen Que felt guilty, and his first reaction was to subconsciously glance in the direction of Li Luansong behind him, panicked and blurry, as if the person was no longer there.
Then he breathed out softly and said, "Your Highness."
"Master, why did you forget again? Didn't you change your mind? Why are you still calling me like this?"
The lingering lingering on her face was still unnaturally red, and her eyes were as wet as a frightened animal. Her eyes looked at people with a timid glint, which made her look even more pitiful.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Mutam asked with a frown, realizing that something was not good.
Shen Que said it was nothing, "I walked a little panicked, maybe it was too hot."
"Are you really okay? If anything happens, I will stand up for you." Mutam clenched his fists and waved twice.
"No, nothing happened." Shen Que calmed down his guilty conscience and said, "Let's go back."
Mutam then gave up and stretched out his left arm for her to hold gently while walking back.
Shen Que didn't dare to look back, he just turned his head slightly and looked behind him, then stopped looking.
Mutam, on the other hand, was walking half a step behind her, looking firmly in the direction of Li Luansong, his eyes were cold, and there was a killing intent in his eyes.
*
The next few days were busy and uneventful.
Shen Que took Mutam seriously to go to the store, and carefully introduced him to the business situation, the entry and exit of goods, and taught him to read the account books.
She couldn't help but think of the situation a few months ago when she took Li Luansong to teach him how to read the account books. It was the same as now, but it seemed that Li Luansong learned faster and got started more smoothly.
Probably because they are both from Daye, they speak more fluently with each other and think about problems more similarly.
Mutam studied very seriously. He looked away from the account book and saw Shen Que in a daze.
"What's wrong, Master?" He interrupted her.
"It's nothing." Shen Que said, "I haven't officially accepted you yet, so don't call me that, Amu."
Mutam smiled and said nothing. He closed his account book and walked slowly. Shen Que took the opportunity to drive away the old things and comparisons that should not have popped up in his mind and followed him.
"I'm very interested in the scale of your business and some of your livelihood these days." He stopped and turned around, standing in front of her, tall and straight as a pine, with a pair of beautiful, deep and slightly smiling eyes, looking down at the petite she.
"Shen Que, you should seriously consider expanding your business to the Soto Country."
This was the first time he called her by her full name, very seriously and solemnly.
Shen Que looked into those deep, light blue eyes and said, "I will seriously consider it, and please consider the preferential treatment policy and support given to me by His Highness."
This was a very official communication between friends. Mutam bent his left arm and pressed his chest, promising: "It will definitely be the most generous conditions, the most lenient policies, and the best treatment."
Shen Que agreed, "Then I will also consider incorporating the idea of running a school into it."
Mutam said: "That's great, I wish for it."
In this way, we have reached a preliminary cooperation happily. As for the details, we still need to negotiate slowly. This is not a matter of urgency.
Mutam thought for a moment and asked, "Have you started making preparations for running a school here? What are your plans?"
"The women's school and private school are both under preparation." Shen Que said, "Zhang Chengru was born in the imperial examination and is very knowledgeable. I want him to be fully responsible for running the school, appointing teachers, opening private schools, and recruiting students... As for the women's school , I manage it myself, it’s all women’s family, it’s not convenient for men.”
"What kind of girls' school?" Mutam asked.
"Flower arranging, incense making, female beauties, female doctors..." She counted her treasures on her fingers. "Maybe it can make their lives less boring, maybe it can make them earn some money, maybe it can help them broaden their horizons and make more friends. It doesn’t matter what the purpose is, it’s fine.”
Mutam found that her eyes sparkled whenever she talked about her ideals and ambitions. At that time, she was the most charming and confident.
"Okay." Mutam stroked his hands, "I support you so that women in Daye can live as freely and confidently as men."
Shen Que looked at him and smiled so happily.
"Yu Yu is teaching his disciples again." Shen Fu came in and looked at the two of them.
"Dad."
"Master Shen."
Shen Fu waved his hand, "Don't call me Sir. I'm not polite enough to call you Your Highness. There's no need for that. Just be more comfortable."
He smiled brightly, and the three of them sat down. Shen Que brought tea and asked, "What makes dad happy today?"
Shen Fu stroked his beard and said, "Am I happy? Is it so obvious?"
"Today I handed over my first official announcement to His Highness the King of Jin." Shen Fu took a sip of tea and said, "It's a pleasure."
"What's the matter that makes uncle so happy?" Mutam asked.
Shen Fu smiled, "Our family's business has benefited from the prosperity of Daye. Now that the country needs it, we should also do our part. I submitted my thoughts over the years.
I proposed to His Highness that we should take the lead and unite many businessmen and celebrities to jointly contribute funds and efforts to undertake the dispensing bureau, Anji Square, residential care home, Salesian Bureau, Luze Garden, etc. "
Mutam was puzzled and looked at Shen Que. He had never heard of these places.
Shen Que explained: "My father has always felt that there are many miserable people among the people, who live in desolate life out of helplessness. These places are used to settle these people who have no choice but to support themselves.
For example, a pesticide bureau. It is to provide medicine and medical treatment to the poor people. It is not for profit and only collects the capital. Especially the poor do not charge a penny. For example, Anjifang is a place specially designed to help poor people who are unable to work or are disabled. For example, nursing homes are places where lonely elderly people are raised. For example, the Salesian Bureau is a place used to adopt orphans. Another example is Luzeyuan, where the war continues in Daye. Those who have no owner's bones or the dead who cannot be buried due to poverty should be given a place to rest after their death, so as to prevent the corpses from being exposed on the streets and the spread of diseases. "
After saying these words, there was a moment of silence, but Mutam lifted his robe and knelt down on one knee, flexing his arms and cupping his fists, saying: "I admire Master Shen's far-sightedness and compassion for the world. If I, Soto Kingdom, If you can do such a good deed, why worry about failing to meet the people's wishes and prosper."
Shen Fu hurriedly helped him up and said: "We are just talking about these things on paper. We need to implement them step by step after His Majesty and His Highness give instructions. If the details and experience are appropriate, we can certainly imitate them in your country."
They talked for a long time that day, and Mutam was amazed by Shen Fu's talent and broad-mindedness.
Until the sun went down and candles were lit in the house, the conversation was still lively.
The sunset has faded, twilight has enveloped the earth, candles are shining brightly, and the father and son in the imperial study are having a lively conversation.
Regarding Shen Fu's broken son, Li Luansong immediately went to Emperor Xiaochun to report it, and the father and son were greatly impressed.
"Such a patriotic person is a blessing to me. I can let him go and do bold things." Emperor Xiaochun took a few more prescriptions given by Shen Que, and his health was no longer serious. "Implementing new decrees is not easy. , Song'er, just watch from behind and support him. If someone in the court obstructs him, you don't need to let him know, you can just deal with it."
"Yes." Li Luansong said, "This excerpt will definitely offend some people. My son will handle the matter behind it and will not distract Shen Fu."
Emperor Xiaochun nodded, glanced at his increasingly thinner son, and asked, "Is your injury fully healed?"
"Go back to Father, that's it."
"Well, if you choose a good day to establish the crown prince, your father will feel at ease."
Li Luansong nodded silently, his expression unchanged.
Emperor Xiaochun knew what was on his son's mind, and saw that he was depressed day by day. He was no longer as stubborn and unyielding as before, but now he became silent and obedient, and he became more and more worried.
Is this Li Luansong, who is so lifeless and rebellious, still him?
"You." The old father took his son's hand and said, "Some things cannot be rushed or rash. You still need to use your brain and follow the steps."
Li Luansong raised his eyes and smiled bitterly: "My father understands what I mean."
"Well, I don't understand when I look at you." He sighed, "The little lady's thoughts are different from ours. It also took my father a lifetime to figure out some of the ways. You have to be anxious and think about things." Only by thinking can you really get together with her, otherwise, everything will be your wishful thinking and it will be self-defeating. You have to slowly understand these truths yourself."
Li Luansong said yes.
Emperor Xiaochun looked at him with a confused look and couldn't help but said: "My father has already laid an opportunity for you. In the future, you can conquer the old father-in-law's barrier first."
Li Luansong then raised his eyes, looked at his father in confusion, and nodded in astonishment.
However, Shen Fu's first hint caused an uproar.
In the middle of the night, someone knocked on the door of Shen's house. There was a sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping. Candle lamps were turned on one after another. The boys who were keeping watch in the shop came to report one after another:
"The boss is in trouble, the shop was smashed."
