Chapter 838 Snow Mountain Past (4)
Three days later, Enshu was carefully dressed up and sent to the residence of County Magistrate Zhao.
Just when Enshu thought he was about to fall into another fire pit, he discovered that County Magistrate Zhao was the man in blue he had seen that day.
He has handsome features, and he looks at Enshu with a gentle smile:
"Your name is Enshu? Is it the Shu of the Shueren Snow Mountain? What a nice name. En County Magistrate said that you were born unable to speak, right?"
"It doesn't matter if you can't speak. I can teach you to write."
"Why are you shaking? Are you scared? Don't you want to stay with me?"
"I'm sorry, I asked for you without asking for your opinion. You look a lot like my little sister, who was also born with white hair, which is a rare disease in our area."
"My whole family loved my little sister so much. We always felt that God owed her something, so we all wanted to do our best to make it up to her and give her the best. Unfortunately, God was too cruel and took her away from us. If she were still alive, she would probably be as old as you."
"The first time I saw you, I thought of my sister, so I impulsively asked the county magistrate for you. If you don't want to, just shake your head and I'll have someone send you back."
Enshu was indeed afraid at first, a kind of fear that came from distrusting everyone after being hurt so much.
But at this moment, I don’t know whether it’s because his eyes are too gentle or I really don’t want to go back to that devilish uncle.
When she heard that the other party was going to send her away, she quickly grabbed his hand and shook her head desperately.
The servant next to him shouted, "How dare you! My young master is of such a noble status, how can you touch him casually?"
Enshu was so scared that he trembled all over and quickly let go of his hand.
The man in blue smiled nonchalantly and extended his hand to her: "If you are willing, you will be my sister from now on."
The snow outside had stopped, and the sun finally broke through the layers of dark clouds and peeked out towards the world.
The golden light shines through the window and falls on the man's soft palm, which is particularly warm.
She reached out her hand ignorantly, trying to grasp the light in his palm.
County Magistrate Zhao wrapped his big hand around her small hand and laughed heartily: "Great, my sister is back!"
In the next few years, Enshu felt like he was living in a dream every day.
In the “dream” there are beautiful clothes, gorgeous jewelry, and endless delicious food.
No one dared to bully her anymore, and everyone called her Miss respectfully.
County Magistrate Zhao really spoiled her like a younger sister. He taught her to read and write and bought her many new and interesting things.
In spring, he would take her to the endless grassland for horseback riding.
In the summer, he sat with her in the yard, watching the stars while telling her about his experiences in the prosperous Central Plains.
He said to Enshu: "My brother has been here for two years. In addition to training, he also heard that there is a snow lotus on the top of the snow mountain that can prolong life. Father hopes that I can find the snow lotus and pay tribute to the queen mother."
"Unfortunately, my brother went into the mountains several times, but not only did he fail to find the snow lotus, he couldn't even climb up the Goddess Peak."
"When my term is over, I will take you back to my hometown. Then, we will go to the Lantern Festival and eat soup dumplings and roasted pigeon from Tianxianglou. And if mother sees you, she will definitely like you very much."
He also said: "Actually, if you look closely, you and my sister are not exactly alike. Her hair is more yellowish, while yours is pure white like snow."
"Enshu, you are so beautiful, more beautiful than any other woman I have ever seen."
"I want to take you back to the Central Plains. Can we be together forever?"
Enshu nodded, then snuggled obediently on her brother's lap, her long snow-white hair falling down softly, with a beautiful luster like brocade.
My brother is actually very busy. He has to go to the yamen very early every day and does not return until nightfall.
Every day near dusk, Enshu would stand in front of the hanging flower gate with a small lantern, quietly waiting for his brother to return.
She liked to see her brother's bright smile when he ran towards her.
Sometimes, he was busy with official business and didn't come back until midnight, and she would just wait at the door foolishly.
All the tiredness in his body disappeared instantly when he saw her.
He rubbed her head, reproachfully yet lovingly saying, "I've already sent someone to tell you that I'll be home late tonight because of something. Why are you still waiting like an idiot?"
Enshu didn't say anything, just looked at him and smiled.
The smile was so sweet, but it made him feel particularly distressed.
Originally his term was only two years, but for some reason he did not return until the fourth year.
Once, Enshu wrote a line on a piece of paper: "Not going back to the Central Plains?"
Her brother didn't say anything, but there was a bit more complicated emotions in his eyes when he looked at her.
She waited for a long time but her brother didn't answer. It was so long that she felt sleepy. When she was leaning on the recliner and about to fall asleep, she vaguely heard a sigh:
"Xiao Shu, it would be nice if you looked more ordinary..."
Time flies, and she has grown into a 14-year-old girl, graceful and beautiful like a fairy.
However, an overly beautiful appearance is not a good thing.
In the past, when she was not very good-looking, County Magistrate Zhao often took her out for fun.
But in the past two years, he has never taken her out.
Even when there were guests at home, he would remind her in advance not to come out of the backyard.
Enshu is a very well-behaved and obedient girl. She does whatever her brother tells her to do.
She was most afraid of doing something wrong, and her brother would get angry and send her back to her second uncle to live their previous life.
As for revenge for her parents - she had thought about it.
She once wrote to her brother tentatively to ask if there was any way to kill Magistrate En.
My brother was surprised at the time, and then patiently explained to her:
"This is where the En family has lived and multiplied for generations, with tens of thousands of people gathered here. In order to appease them, the court allowed their clan leader to serve as the county magistrate. My brother came here just to assist in governance. Unless it is a serious crime that cannot be punished, the higher-ups will not touch the En County Magistrate."
Enshu didn't say anything more after hearing this. She didn't want to embarrass her brother, and she didn't want to transfer her personal grudge to her brother.
A few days later, County Magistrate Zhao went into the mountains again to try to find the legendary snow lotus.
In the past, he had been looking for snow lotus to make profits for his family. But now, he had a selfish motive and wanted to exchange snow lotus for an imperial edict.
Unexpectedly, they didn't find the snow lotus, but accidentally discovered the weapons forge that En County Magistrate privately set up in the mountains.
En County is located in a remote area and the people are ignorant. They only know about clan leaders but not the imperial court.
The imperial court was already very wary of them, so it sent a county magistrate to assist in governance, hoping to educate the people. Unexpectedly, the county magistrate actually had ambitions to rebel.
As a court official, County Magistrate Zhao realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately reported the matter to the court.
Unexpectedly, there was a spy around him, and the secret letter was intercepted before it could leave En County.
As a result, County Magistrate Zhao was arrested by the county magistrate and taken to the foot of the snow-capped mountains.
