After Feng Qingge helped Phantom go back to his room to sleep peacefully, the two of them returned to their new house hand in hand. Xue Xichen sat on the bed in silence, the festive day somewhat cast a layer of sadness because of Phantom's pain.
Feng Qingge brought Xue Xichen foot-washing water. He bent down and held Xue Xichen's slender feet, took off her embroidered shoes, and helped her take off her socks. Xue Xichen was embarrassed and shrank her feet, wanting to refuse.
Feng Qingge held her feet tightly and said softly: "Xichen, I am your husband."
"But..." Xue Xichen looked shy and a little embarrassed, "Qingge, you are an emperor, how can you condescend to wash my feet."
"Xichen, I am no longer the emperor! At home, I am just your husband. My wife is burdened by this, so as a husband, I naturally have to serve you."
Feng Qingge gently put Xue Xichen's feet into the warm water and began to gently scrub Xue Xichen's toes in the water, washing Xue Xichen's feet gently.
The light itch caused by the touch made Xue Xichen's heart beat faster involuntarily. The special feeling coming from Feng Qingge's fingertips was like a goose feather tickling her heart. In her eyes, only Feng Qingge's
Her long black hair was wrapped in a red scarf.
His slender fingers gently wrapped her feet and rubbed them gently. The warm water formed a strange stream of warmth coming from the soles of her feet. As Feng Qingge's fingers seeped into her skin little by little, it surged up from bottom to top.
It spread all over her body, making her feel dizzy and restless.
She couldn't help but pull off Feng Qingge's hair tie, the red scarf fell down, and her long black hair poured down like water, sliding in front of her eyes with a brilliant light, like black velvet and fine silk, making people unable to put it down.
Feng Qingge's body stiffened slightly and her hands paused slightly.
"Qingge, your hair is so beautiful."
Xue Xichen admired the perfect long hair that was as smooth and shiny as black silk, and sincerely praised, "It's more beautiful than my hair, I'm really jealous..."
Xue Xichen pulled her hair and compared it with Feng Qingge's beautiful long hair, her face full of depression.
Feng Qingge laughed and shook her head. He held Xue Xichen's feet, lifted them out of the water, and gently wiped them clean with a soft cloth.
Her eyes rolled, and she was filled with bad thoughts. Xue Xichen lifted her foot that was placed on Feng Qingge's knee, playfully poked his chest, and said mischievously: "Qingge, it's late at night! Shouldn't we?
It’s time to rest.”
A strange look flashed across Feng Qingge's eyes. He grabbed Xue Xichen's restless feet and smiled fondly: "You are still so naughty! Wait a minute, I'll pour the water first."
Feng Qingge walked to the door with the footbath and reached out to open the door. The door opened automatically and Mu Qingfei appeared at the door.
"Qingfei?"
Feng Qingge was slightly surprised when she saw Mu Qingfei. It was late at night and it was his big day. Mu Qingfei couldn't have come to have a wedding, right?
His eyes fell on the footbath Feng Qingge was holding, and a strange light flashed in Mu Qingfei's eyes. He calmly watched Feng Qingge pour the footbath water into the flower base, and suddenly said, "There is news from the capital, Xiao
Liuyue resigned from the post of prime minister, took down his armor and returned to his fields, and has now left the capital."
"Xiao Liuyue resigned?"
Feng Qingge was surprised when she heard what Mu Qingfei said. Xue Xichen came out after hearing the sound and asked in shock: "Senior brother resigned? So suddenly?"
Mu Qingfei said: "The specific reason is not known. News from the capital said that a few days ago, Xiao Liuyue suddenly reported to the emperor in the morning that he would resign and go into seclusion. The emperor tried to persuade him to stay, but Xiao Liuyue had already decided to leave. The emperor
Repeated attempts to stay were ineffective, so I could only nod and agree."
"How come?"
Xue Xichen found it unbelievable, "This is really not like senior brother's style! Senior brother has great ambitions and thoughts of serving the country and the people. He will not just abandon it irresponsibly. Could it be that senior brother and Feng Biqing
What differences arose between them, and the senior brother had no choice but to resign?"
"Never heard of it," Mu Qingfei replied, "Since Xiao Liuyue took over as prime minister, Feng Biqing has been extremely fond of Xiao Liuyue. Almost all important matters have been decided through Xiao Liuyue. I have never heard of any relationship between him and Feng Biqing.
What a contradiction."
Feng Qingge said: "No matter what the reason is, Xiao Liuyue must have his own intentions. However, an unruly person like him may also be tired of the dangers of officialdom and resign. After all, in the past, he wanted to help Feng Bi
Qing, he had to give up his happy life and go into the troubled waters of the court. Now that the overall situation of the world has been decided, he can retire with success!"
"You said that senior brother is tired of officialdom?"
He won’t give up easily! There must be something in this!”
Feng Qingge said: "Where will Xiao Liuyue go after leaving the capital? Qingfei, have you heard about it?"
Mu Qingfei shook his head, but Xue Xichen said: "According to my understanding of senior brother, he will return to Jiangdu. Jiangdu is the base of Wushuang Sect. If he wants to return to Wushuang Sect, he will return to Jiangdu. Qingge, you can rest assured, I
I believe that senior brother will not come to Baidi City."
Feng Qingge was silent. Unexpectedly, Xue Xichen already understood his worries before he said it clearly. To be fair, his life was peaceful and happy now, and he really didn't want to be involved in the past grudges. A phantom was enough to give him a headache, Xiao
It would be best if Liuyue did not come to Baidi City!
Just be afraid...
Mu Qingfei said: "If Xiao Liuyue returns to Wushuangmen, Xichen, you must have a way to get the news, right?"
Xue Xichen tilted her head and looked at Mu Qingfei, who smiled calmly. Xue Xichen curled her lips and muttered: "I will ask Yanniang to pay attention. However, I don't think senior brother will return to Wushuangmen with great fanfare, especially
, if he still has some purpose..."
Feng Qingge said: "Now, we can't do anything! Let's move quietly! Xichen, the treasure map you mentioned before, you said that the map was given to you by Feng Biqing, then, Feng Biqing
Do you know the secret of the treasure map?"
"Maybe he doesn't know..." Xue Xichen hesitated, "If he knew, why would he give me such a valuable thing?" She blinked, "Qingge, don't you doubt that my senior brother left this time?"
Is that why Jing is looking for this treasure map?"
Feng Qingge said: "I am just guessing. However, since this picture was given by Feng Biqing, there is no guarantee that he does not know... Xichen, no matter what, you must keep this picture safe and do not let Xiao Liuyue get it.
!”
Xue Xichen nodded vigorously, "I know!"
Mu Qingfei asked: "When do you plan to leave?"
Feng Qingge and Xue Xichen looked at each other, and Feng Qingge said: "If Xiao Liuyue really comes here for this picture, of course the sooner the better! Qingfei, you go make preparations first, and we will set off on a different day!"
"Okay! Then I won't disturb your wedding ceremony!"
Mu Qingfei showed an ambiguous smile and turned to leave.
Xue Xichen blushed deeply, stared at Mu Qingfei's retreating figure and cursed, "Damn Mu Fox! You're so cunning! You have such a nasty mouth!"
"I'm grateful for his understanding!" Feng Qingge laughed loudly with an ambiguous expression, "Madam, it's getting late. I'll serve you and rest for my husband!"
