Before Xiao Yichen and I reached the front hall, we heard Xiao Yifeng's angry voice coming out, "What on earth is the King Xian doing? I have been waiting here for so long." Then I saw the housekeeper hurriedly coming.
Walking out of the house, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xiao Yichen and I finally arrived.
"Brother Emperor, what are you doing with such a big fire? Aren't I here?" Xiao Yichen held my hand and walked in, saying calmly, with a familiar smile on his face.
"Yichen, what are you busy with..." Xiao Yifeng looked up and paused when he saw me. I nodded and smiled at him as a greeting.
Xiao Yichen coughed and said, "You were looking for me urgently just now, but now that I'm here, you're no longer in a hurry. Why are you looking for me?" He led me and sat down next to the main seat, and the servant immediately brought me two
Cup of tea.
Xiao Yifeng looked away slightly embarrassed, and said sadly: "She helped me yesterday, but she didn't come to see me later. I was afraid that something would happen to her, so... But now it seems that I am worrying too much.
.”
After listening to Xiao Yifeng's words, I smiled apologetically and said, "I was negligent and forgot to say hello to General Cheng Yang." After I handed the jade pendant to Cheng Yang yesterday, I rushed to find Xiao Yichen.
I didn't even tell him. Xiao Yifeng might have thought something happened to me.
Xiao Yichen glanced at me tenderly and continued: "I made Brother Huang worry because Lin'er was negligent for a moment... However, I should thank Brother Huang for helping me bring Lin'er back safely."
I glanced at Xiao Yichen in surprise and felt that he was a little different. He and Xiao Yifeng used to be very close. But just now, although he was smiling, his tone was distant. Over the past year or so
Did it really change their relationship?
Xiao Yifeng's eyes darkened, he looked at Xiao Yichen, and sighed: "Yichen, you are such a blessed person..." He stared at me with his eyes slightly narrowed, as if he was looking at another person through me. My heart tightened.
, I was also not sure, did Chengyang say something about the past yesterday?
Xiao Yichen saw him staring at me without blinking, and immediately understood what the blessing in his words meant, and said with a smile: "Yes! I have been waiting for this blessing for a lifetime..." He walked over and held it.
He picked up my hand and continued: "I will go to the palace tomorrow to ask for orders from my father, the emperor, and my mother. In this life, the world is ever-changing, and my heart is fixed, and I can't tolerate anything else."
Hearing this, my eyes met Xiao Yichen's bright eyes. The deep affection in his eyes made me indulge in it involuntarily. I smiled shyly at him and lowered my head.
Xiao Yifeng's hand holding the cup trembled inexplicably, she looked at Xiao Yichen with a surprised expression, and said in a dull voice for a long time: "Congratulations!"
Xiao Yichen was about to reply when suddenly the housekeeper ran in hurriedly and said with a sad look on his face: "Your Majesty, the housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion came to report that Concubine Ran of the house left an hour ago..." Xiao Yifeng's face turned pale.
After a while, he stood up and walked out.
I was shocked, Concubine Ran? Is she still the princess of the Mist Kingdom? I stood up suddenly and asked excitedly: "Concubine Ran, is she the princess of the Fog Kingdom?"
The housekeeper looked at me and nodded. I couldn't believe it and was stunned.
Luo Yiran, she was sixteen when she married Xiao Yifeng, and she is only eighteen this year... I know that when Xiao Yifeng married her, it was not because he liked her, but just to win over Wu Guo. After hearing Luo Zixuan say that Xiao
Yifeng took in several more concubines, and later when I heard Luo Zixuan say that she still had a miscarriage, I knew that a woman like that must have had a difficult life in the Prince's Mansion. Otherwise, how could she have had a miscarriage.
There was a sadness in my heart, and the mist in my eyes suddenly rose. Xiao Yichen looked panicked, and raised his hand to touch my face. Knowing that I must be sad, he comforted me: "Lin'er, don't be sad. Maybe, this is for Yiran."
It’s a kind of relief, but it doesn’t necessarily mean..."
I was slightly startled, raised my head and looked at him, relieved! Maybe! I still liked Xiao Yichen at that time. Because of her identity, Jinkouyu said that she had to marry Xiao Yifeng and accepted her fate, but fate was not kind to her! She was originally
On the side, not long after they married, her husband married several women one after another; God gave her a child, but then took it back...
I wiped my eyes, sighed, and said to Xiao Yichen: "I want to go see Yiran..."
I originally planned to visit her in two days, but now I have heard such sad news before we even meet! Things in the world are really unpredictable, and none of us know what will happen in the next second?
I tightened Xiao Yichen's hand and felt a little calmer in my heart!
When I arrived at the Prince's Mansion, white water chestnuts were hung outside the house. Looking at the white silk ribbons floating in the wind, my heart was heavy. I was happy when I left the Prince's Mansion, but I felt sad when I came back... Looking at the still gorgeous
How many people's hearts are locked up by the mansion and the high courtyard walls?
"Lin'er." Xiao Yichen saw that I was just staring at the door in a daze, knowing that I might be thinking of the past.
I took the initiative to put my little hand into his big hand, crossed my fingers and said, "Yichen, let's go back to Qingqingju as soon as possible! The air here is not as good as there."
He looked at me intently, wanting to see into the depths of my heart. He held my hand a little tighter and said with a smile, "Okay." He took my hand and walked into the door.
There was a feeling of mourning in the prince's palace, and the servants were a little frightened. Xiao Yichen held my hand tightly all the way, and just waved to the servants who were saluting without making a sound.
I don’t want to talk either. I don’t know if I will see him lying there so quietly. Will I not be able to help but slap Xiao Yifeng twice? I obviously don’t love you, but I have to fight for it. If I fight, I don’t know how to cherish it.
, and failed to protect her...
Entering Xiran Pavilion, the servant went in to report. After a while, Xiao Yifeng came out, followed by a group of women in different clothes. I looked over and saw that except Yuan Zhiyou, I had never seen anyone else. My eyes changed from one
I glanced at the face of the woman wearing a goose-yellow skirt and turned back again. Her face... actually looked a bit like mine!
Flashing through his mind, Luo Zixuan said that the women Xiao Yifeng married later had some similarities with me, and he looked at everyone's eyebrows and noses - there were indeed some similarities, maybe the eyebrows, or the lips...
...But among them, only the woman in the goose-yellow dress looks the most like me.
Suddenly, everyone called out: "Concubines, please pay your respects to the wise king." Xiao Yichen waved his hand, and they stood up and looked at me, with doubts in their eyes. Especially the woman in the goose-yellow dress and Yuan Zhiyou.
, his eyes never moved away after seeing me.
Yuan Zhiyou reacted, walked towards me, and said with a smile: "Feng..."
Xiao Yichen was startled, then suddenly spoke up and said: "Brother, Princess Yiran was my friend before, and later became my sister-in-law. After hearing this sad news, regardless of her status, I should come to see her off on her last journey.
Can we go see her?" I felt relieved. Yuan Zhiyou almost called out my old name. But if Xiao Yifeng knew about it, who knows what he would do?
Xiao Yifeng glanced at Yuan Zhiyou with hesitant eyes, then looked at me, and said calmly: "Let's go in and have a look!" After speaking, he sighed deeply.
My heart started to feel heavy again. I ignored those surprised eyes and walked into the inner room with Xiao Yichen.
The house was very quiet, all the windows in the room were closed, and the light was a bit dim.
The pink bed curtain hung low, and she was still lying on it quietly. It looked like she was asleep, not dead. I reached out and touched her delicate eyebrows, but her body had no warmth.
...My heart suddenly became heavy, but was she really dead? It wasn't like she was asleep... She raised her head, tears running down the corners of her eyes and into her hair.
Xiao Yichen pulled me over and held me in his arms, saying softly: "Don't cry, if she still knows you are sad, she will be sad too." I shed tears in his arms, nodded at the same time, and finally just put my face down.
She buried her in his arms and used his clothes as handkerchiefs.
Xiao Yifeng stared blankly at her crying heartbrokenly, and the doubts in her heart deepened, how could she know Yiran?
Yuan Zhiyou's brain cells were a bit exhausted. Her eyes were moving back and forth between them. She didn't understand why Xiao Yifeng's attitude towards Yun Fengqing? When she left before, he was so sad that he looked for her like crazy, and
Now standing in front of him, he felt so alienated... What was even stranger was that there seemed to be a change between Xiao Yichen and Yun Fengqing... A pair of Danfeng eyes flashed.
