The moonlight was like water, and the light words were like silk teasing Qin Feng's heart.
He is just timid and afraid of his wife, and he is not a straight man. Ya'an has already said that, so how can he not understand the other person's intentions?
The horses in the stables were trampling their hooves, and the streets outside the old restaurant were filled with pedestrians and constant noise.
But at this moment, Qin Feng and Ya'an seemed to only be able to hear each other's breathing and heartbeat.
He looked at the other party quietly, and a bright red bloomed on her jade-like face.
Women have taken the initiative to do this. It would be too cowardly if they didn't express any more... Although the imperial edict has not been issued and Qin Feng has not reported to the two ladies, he can no longer care about it at this moment.
So much, he slowly raised his right hand and slowly approached the other party.
Ya'an's hands were clasped under her white sleeves. She was nervous and looking forward to it, and even worried that Qin Feng would hear her beating heart.
She was ready and leaned forward slightly.
But at this moment, a familiar voice sounded from the door of the old restaurant.
"Brother Qin, why are you here?"
Qin Feng's body froze, and he hurriedly retracted his right hand, and then looked for someone to greet him. The person who greeted him was Zhan Qingfeng from the Demon Slayer Division.
At this moment, the other party was holding a wine bottle in his hand, with a hint of drunkenness on his face. It was obvious that he had just finished drinking.
Ya'an also turned his head and looked away. After recognizing the other party's face clearly, a dangerous light appeared in his eyes.
She naturally recognized this guy and was deeply impressed by him. When she and Qin Feng went out on missions, it was this guy who had no eyesight who repeatedly ruined her good deeds.
And tonight, at such a critical moment, he appeared again at an untimely time!
With all the old and new grudges added together, Ya'an wanted to kill him with a thousand knives!
Get out of here quickly... Ya'an thought silently in her mind, narrowed her eyes slightly, and used her eyes to warn the other party to be more understanding.
However, the drunk Zhan Qingfeng obviously lost his judgment on the dangerous situation and couldn't care less about it, so he leaned over with the wine bottle in hand.
As he got closer, with the help of the lamp hanging in the stable, he could see clearly that there was another person beside Brother Qin.
She was wearing an elegant long dress as white as the moonlight, and her beautiful face would captivate the whole country, but her look was a bit too cold.
At this time, it was already dark, and a man and a woman were alone outside the restaurant.
Zhan Qingfeng understood something instantly and pointed at Qin Feng with a mean smile: "Brother Qin, you are dishonest. There are two beautiful ladies at home who are as beautiful as flowers, but you still dare to come out and eat.
But why do I feel that the girl looks so familiar?"
Zhan Qingfeng looked at her for a few times and felt that she seemed familiar, but in his memory, there was no woman who could match her.
"This shouldn't be the case. Why can't I remember who this beautiful woman is?" He shook his head, thinking that he had drunk too much and his thoughts were disordered.
You are teasing the princess, you are going to the toilet with a lantern, seeking death... Qin Feng hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Brother Qingfeng, you have drunk too much, go back and rest quickly."
Zhan Qingfeng waved his hand: "It's only two kilograms, so it's not much. Even if you give me another three kilograms of liquor, I can still drink it!"
Ya'an said coldly: "If I remember correctly, you should be on duty at the gate of Fengtian City at this point. If you leave your post without permission while on duty, and you drink and cause trouble, according to the laws of Da Gan Demon Slayer Division, your crime can be punishable by death!"
"Ha." Zhan Qingfeng smiled disdainfully: "The night watch for the city is at Xu hour. It's just a quarter of the hour now, and there are still three-quarters of an hour left. With my pace, I can rush to the city gate, and I still have at least a quarter of an hour to spare. Where can I go? Considered AWOL?
Wait, who are you and how do you know that I am responsible for guarding the city gate at night?"
Because it is me who asked you to guard the city gate at night... Ya'an took a breath and suppressed the anger in her heart. How could she be too rude in front of the person she likes?
After Zhan Qingfeng disrupted the situation, the previous atmosphere was gone. She could only suppress her feelings and choose to go home.
"Ready your horse." He called softly.
A figure appeared out of thin air, it was a lean middle-aged man, it was Mo Lintian, who served as Ya'an's bodyguard when he managed Jubaozhai.
This movement startled Zhan Qingfeng and made him extremely frightened. Is this a groom? Are you kidding me? Whose groom is at the peak of the fifth grade?!
Mo Lintian nodded in greeting to Qin Feng, and then looked at Zhan Qingfeng with a strange look on his face. He had never seen such a guy who was not afraid of death...
Without paying much attention, he just shook his head and Mo Lintian pulled out the carriage in the stable. After Ya'an got on the carriage, he got on the horse and drove away.
Zhan Qingfeng, who saw the horse clearly, was dumbfounded and said in a trembling voice: "Step on... the snow dragon colt?"
Working as an errand in Fengtian City and guarding the city gates, he had long since developed the ability to read horses and identify their owners.
It is obvious that only the rich and powerful can own such a magical horse!
Coupled with the fact that a fifth-grade peak warrior serves as the groom, it is self-evident how noble the girl in the white dress is!
Perhaps because he experienced too many shocks in a short period of time, Zhan Qingfeng became more sober and finally remembered why he felt that the girl looked familiar.
"I remembered! She...she and Mr. An from before, their facial features are almost carved out of the same mold!
Brother Qin, is that girl a compatriot of Mr. An?
It's terrible, it's terrible, I just spoke so freely, will I be blamed by her later?" Zhan Qingfeng turned pale with fright.
"Don't worry, we are not compatriots." Qin Feng shook his head.
"Seriously? Brother Qin, please don't lie to me!" Zhan Qingfeng said excitedly.
"She is Mr. An, and Mr. An is her."
A woman disguised as a man?!
Zhan Qingfeng's eyes widened and he understood instantly.
He recalled the scenes when he was on the mission. It turned out that Mr. An was not as good as Long Yang. She was originally a woman, and she loved Brother Qin!
And he was not very discerning, so he ruined the contact between her and Brother Qin again and again!
"No wonder after I returned to Fengtian City, not only was I not promoted, but my salary was reduced, and I was assigned to the most painful and tiring night duty..." Zhan Qingfeng suddenly realized.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "No, for the sake of my future career, I have to find a way to make up for it...Brother Qin, which family does she belong to? I will visit you someday to express my gratitude.
I apologized profusely and just hoped that she would not forget the faults of villains and let me go.
I just don’t know if my meager offering can buy me a sufficient amount of apology.”
The voice fell, but there was still no response.
Zhan Qingfeng looked up and saw Qin Feng looking at him with sympathy.
Qin Feng patted Zhan Qingfeng's shoulder and sighed: "Fortunately, you are alone and have nothing to worry about. In the next life, your eyes will be brighter and your mouth will be stricter."
Zhan Qingfeng was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he said with a cry: "Brother Qin, don't scare me, she...who is she?"
"The current princess——Ya'an."
Snap!
The jug fell and the wine spilled all over the floor.
Zhan Qingfeng sat paralyzed on the ground, at a loss. It was only after Qin Feng left that he burst into tears.
When people around him asked him, he didn't answer. He just kept repeating "he's dead".
The duty time had passed, and Zhan Qingfeng, who was tired from crying, did not go to the city gate to change his shift. Instead, he got up and stumbled to Piaoxiang Courtyard, took out all his savings and ordered an oiran.
It was originally the wife's money he had saved, but death is like a lamp going out, and these money and things cannot be taken away, so it is better to indulge in one last indulgence before death.
It has to be said that the courtesan of Piaoxiangyuan is indeed different from ordinary women, which made him forget his sorrow for a short time.
In the following days of waiting for death, Zhan Qingfeng did not receive news of beheading. Instead, he was summoned by Lord Deng and scolded by Yu Yitong. The reason was naturally because he left his post without authorization and slept with the courtesan while on duty.
It was inevitable that he would be fined and his salary would be cut off, and he would be beaten to pieces with a hundred big boards.
But these are nothing compared to death.
Therefore, the colleagues who were in charge of the penalty and onlookers saw a rather strange scene. Zhan Qingfeng was slapped and cried with joy at the same time.
What Qin Feng said was naturally just to scare Zhan Qingfeng. After all, the latter had ruined his good deeds.
It's just that he didn't expect that his words would bring such results.
Of course, these are all things for later.
...
Ya'an, who returned to the palace, recalled what she said outside the stable. She didn't realize it on a whim at the time, but thinking about it now, it only made her blush and her heart beat faster.
"How...how could I say something like that."
However, after feeling shy, she thought of Qin Feng's gesture of raising his hand and the deep affection in his eyes, and her shyness instantly turned into deep joy.
"You also said that you regard me as a good friend, so you know... you also have me in your heart."
The candles in the palace were bright, and the night wind blew through the curtains, swaying slightly, just like her mood at the moment, which made her feel a little drifting.
Ya'an lay on the soft bed, swinging her feet gently.
When the maids not far away saw this, they were all frightened.
They have served His Highness Ya'an for who knows how many years. In their eyes, His Highness Ya'an is well-educated and as graceful and noble as a queen. When has she ever shown such a daughterlike attitude tonight?
"Your Highness, what's going on?"
"Don't ask too many questions, don't look too much, just do your duty."
At this moment, the voice of the guard outside the palace sounded, which was the arrival of the queen.
After hearing the summons, Ya'an hurriedly got up from the bed and tidied up her appearance. Within a moment, she returned to her usual appearance.
The queen entered the hall, glanced at the palace maids, waved her hand and said, "Everyone, please step aside."
"Mother, it's getting late, why do you want to come here at this time?" Ya'an asked curiously.
"But what happy thing happened to you?" the decent and dignified queen said softly.
Hearing this, Ya'an's eyes dodge a little: "It's just like the past, nothing special happened. Why did the queen say that?"
"I see your brows are full of joy, so I can't help but be a little curious."
Is...is it so obvious?!
Ya'an turned away his head and pretended to be calm: "Maybe it's because he has improved his cultivation, so he feels better."
"So that's it." The queen stopped asking any more questions and told her the purpose of her visit...
After hearing this, Ya'an stood up suddenly, her expression changed with shock: "Father, is he going to decree a marriage?"
"Yes." The queen nodded slightly, also a little confused: "His Majesty didn't care about these things in the past, but today he took the initiative to come to me to explain this matter."
"Mother, you... agreed?" Ya'an asked uneasily.
"Since it is His Majesty's will, I can't say much."
"Mother, you...how could you do this? You clearly know who Ya'an's respected person is!" Ya'an's voice suddenly became louder, and even the maids and guards outside the palace heard it.
The young palace maid was curious and wanted to poke her head in to see why His Highness Ya'an suddenly lost his temper. Fortunately, the older palace maid stopped him in time to avoid making a big mistake.
The queen frowned and said, "How can it be so inappropriate to lose your composure? I haven't said yet who the person to whom I have decreed the marriage will be."
"No matter who it is, I..." He stopped abruptly in the middle of his words.
Ya'an seemed to have guessed something, and her whole heart was in her throat. She looked at her mother in disbelief, and did not dare to mention the person's name directly. She just asked cautiously: "Who is it?"
"Qin family, Qin Feng."
Ya'an staggered when the familiar words were spoken, but fortunately the queen's quick eyesight and quick hands helped her in time.
The queen was about to accuse, but seeing Ya'an's expression crying with joy, she could only sigh helplessly.
"I'm so happy..."
On the other side, Qin Feng returned to the Qin Mansion. After finishing dinner, he thought about today's events and felt that his head was as big as two.
The beauty is so kind, and the emperor has given her the marriage, so the matter is already a certainty, but after all, she and the two ladies have to get through to each other first, otherwise there will only be a gap in their hearts, which will affect the future life of the couple.
"Jianli has already suffered something like this once, so we must not talk to her about it first.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! To be on the safe side, it’s best to talk to Fei Lan first, using reason and emotion. If you can successfully persuade her, you can also ask her to help me.
Please advise Jianli."
After thinking about it, Qin Feng exhaled and walked towards Fei Lan's room.
Outside the door of the house, the familiar fragrance of medicine hit her face. Cang Feilan was standing there quietly, waiting for the medicine to be boiled. She also did not forget to practice, closing her eyes there to recuperate.
When Qin Feng saw the decoction, his body actually had a stress reaction, and his waist ached slightly. He knew that tonight would be another protracted battle.
Cang Feilan heard the noise and opened her eyes: "Ms. sir, why are you here? I'm going to find you later."
As he spoke, the tips of his ears turned slightly red.
Qin Feng took a deep breath and calmed down before speaking: "That's it, madam, I encountered something these days and I don't know how to deal with it, so I wanted to come over and ask for your opinion."
"What's up?"
"Well, I have a friend..."
From a third-person perspective, Qin Feng tells an emotional story about an infatuated man who clearly wanted to stay with his wife and grow old together, but was forced to marry another princess because of the marriage granted by the emperor.
Among them, the man's mental journey can be described as bumpy and tangled!
"How could such a thing happen?" Cang Feilan frowned.
"Yes, but His Majesty granted marriage, but my friend had to marry him, but he was worried about creating a rift with his wife, so he wanted to ask me to ask you, how would you respond if you encountered such a situation?
"
Qin Feng carefully observed Fei Lan's reaction, only to hear the other party say in a cold voice: "If it were me, I would naturally kill that dog emperor."
