Zhou Shengru: Why is the distance between Shiyi and Zhou Shengchen more than one step?

First, Luo Sanniang would not agree to Shiyi's stay in Xizhou

After Shiyi had a marriage contract, Luo Sanniang comforted Shiyi: If there was no such marriage contract, she promised Shiyi to keep her in Xizhou forever. But in Luo Sanniang's heart, she never thought of letting Shi Yi stay in Xizhou. There is a scene in the play, when Luo Sanniang receives a letter from Shi Yi, in the letter, Shi Yi expresses that she wants to stay in Xizhou forever. At this time, Luo Siniang came over to ask what was written in the letter, and Luo Sanniang said some silly things about Shi Yi to Luo Siniang. This shows that Luo Sanniang never thought of keeping Shiyi in Xizhou.

and later Luo Sanniang said that if there is no marriage contract, she would agree to Shiyi's request to stay in Xizhou forever, which is just to comfort Shiyi. But Luo Sanniang never thought that this sentence would become Shi Yi's regret and pain for a lifetime.

2. Rumors are the hindrance between them

Luo Sanniang and Shi Yi said that since Shi Yi returned to Xizhou, there have been rumors: King Xiao Nanchen and the daughter of the Luo family ignore the ethics of Gangchang and do things that are unreasonable. Zhou Shengchen also said that the most important thing for him is the military spirit. Various rumors in the market will not only affect Shi Yi's reputation, but also affect Zhou Shengchen's reputation, thus affecting Zhou Shengchen's military heart in the Wang army. So even if there is no marriage contract, all kinds of rumors are the biggest obstacle between them.

Because Zhou Shengchen has a special status and holds military power, the ministers in the DPRK and China are especially wary of Zhou Shengchen. Shi Yi is the only girl in the Luo family, and the Luo family has an extraordinary status in the minds of literati. Whether it is Shi Yi's identity or Zhou Shengchen's identity is dreadful, if one of Shi Yi and Zhou Shengchen will not marry for life, and the other will not marry for life, plus various rumors in the market, the court will not be able to tolerate Zhou Shengchen and Zhou Shengchen. Shi Yi, Zhou's birthday and Shi Yi are destined not to be with each other for life, and Shi Yi is also destined not to stay in Xizhou.

3. The relationship between Luo Feng and Princess Xinghua is not good.

The marriage contract between Luo Shiyi and the prince is annulled, and Luo Shiyi's uncle also passed away. In order to maintain the status of Wushuifang, Shiyi's uncle Luo Fengqiu, Shiyi's older brother, married Princess Xinghua when he was dying. But Luo Feng and Princess Xinghua both have their own favorite people.

Even though Luofeng and Princess Xinghua are married, their relationship is very unstable, especially when Princess Xinghua always wants to get rid of her marriage with Luofeng. Therefore, in this case, the separation of Luofeng and Princess Xinghua is inevitable. If Luofeng loses the identity of the concubine, the docks and water houses will no longer have the glory of the past. At this time, Shiyi's marriage must be sacrificed to maintain the status of Wushuifang, and Shiyi naturally can't stay in Xizhou for life without marrying.

Fourth, the relationship between Shi Yi and Zhou Shengchen cannot be changed

The identities of Shi Yi and Zhou Shengchen cannot be changed in any case, and it is well known that Shi Yi and Zhou Shengchen have a mentoring relationship. Zhou Shengchen made an oath in the main hall that he would never marry and leave no heirs for the rest of his life. Therefore, it is reasonable for Zhou Shengchen not to marry a wife. And Shi Yi clearly has a family of her own, and her identity is so noble, it is inevitable that she will be criticized if she stays in Xizhou and Zhou Shengchen all her life. Therefore, the teacher-apprentice relationship between Shi Yi and Zhou Shengchen is doomed that Shi Yi cannot stay with Zhou Shengchen.

5. Summary

Zhou Shengchen and Shi Yi are never just one step behind, there are too many obstacles between them. From Zhou Shengchen's vow to Shi Yi's marriage, it is impossible for them to be together forever, and Shi Yi's wish to stay in Xizhou forever will never be fulfilled.
