【Rebirth】Emperor's favorite

Suzhou is worthy of the reputation of "there is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below". Even in summer, the temperature is still suitable.

Especially on a rainy evening.

Shao Zixiao was only wearing a single shirt, walking casually in the yard.

Tired from walking, he sat down on the bluestone board and took a rest for a while.

Suddenly, I felt warmth behind me.

Shao Zixiao turned around, then smiled and said:

"Young Master Shen."

"Although it's already midsummer, it's still quite cool in the evening, not to mention it just rained today. Zixiao is greedy for the coolness."

Shao Zixiao smiled and tightened the cloak around her body.

"I didn't pay attention, thank you Mr. Shen."

"How many times have I said it, you don't need to call me Mr. Shen, just call me Jiuqing."

Seeing that Shao Zixiao smiled and did not answer him, Shen Jiuqing stopped pressing.

"Is Zixiao homesick?"

"Of course I do. I think about it every day. I miss my father, I miss my brother, and I miss him even more..."

"Him? Is he your sweetheart?"

Shao Zixiao nodded with a blushing face.

"An outstanding person like Zi Xiao must have fascinated many/boys and girls. May I know what is so special about 'him'?"

Shao Zixiao couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

"What fascinates many/boys and girls? There is no such thing. He...was the first person to express his affection to me, so I just..."

Shen Jiuqing was overjoyed when she heard this.

It seems that he has to find a time to express his love!

"Zi Xiao, I don't know when you plan to go back to the capital to find him?"

"I……"

"Don't get me wrong, Zixiao, I'm not driving you away, I just want to know what your next plan is. If you want to live in Suzhou for the rest of your life, my door will always be open to you!"

"Thank you, Mr. Shen. But, I definitely want to go back to the capital."

Hearing this, Shen Jiuqing couldn't help feeling sorry, because he didn't want to leave Jiangnan, so it's better not to express this love.

"I'll probably wait until he gets married and has children before going back..."

"What? Isn't he your sweetheart? How can you push him to others? "

"Because we are all men."

"What does it matter? Several of my friends have married men as their regular wives!"

"How is this possible? Isn't our Daliang not allowed to marry men as regular wives?"

"It's true. Take one of my best friends as an example. He was originally engaged to be the daughter of a big salt merchant. But later he fell in love with a man from a brothel, and he wanted to redeem himself for him. , and marry him as his wife.”

"and then?"

"Then his mother had no choice but to withdraw the marriage with the cheek. Unexpectedly, Miss Su agreed very readily, and even went to their wedding. Later, Miss Su pestered the two of them. Tell their stories and say they will be adapted into a storybook!"

"Is there really such a thing? But didn't Daliang clearly stipulate that he is not allowed to marry a man as his regular wife?"

"That was 100 years ago when Daliang just founded the country, right? You probably don't know. In fact, the great grandfather who made this rule fell in love with a man himself, but he couldn't love him. He watched him marry other men. This law was enacted in a fit of anger."
