"I have to go to see Cong Zhizhang, so I won't stay here any longer. The guards of Jin have already secretly met with the people we left in the palace. We have arranged the rest of the things. Just continue to be your queen.
If you continue to be pregnant, your body will slowly change until the child is brought here." Xuan Yi looked at the queen and said softly, "Ruoshui has left Wumeng Kingdom, and I want to know what Cong Zhizhang is thinking now."
The queen nodded again and said softly: "I heard that the Cong family has closed its doors these days to thank guests. It is said that something inappropriate happened, and it is related to Mr. Cong's junior sister. It seems that both the Cong brothers have fallen in love with each other.
Mr. Cong’s junior sister has angered Mr. Cong’s master, saying that the Cong family intentionally bullied Mr. Cong’s junior sister. It seems that she is a girl named Su, and she is somewhat related to our Leng family.”
"Humph." Xuan Yi smiled faintly, "Relationship? This relationship is too far away."
The queen saw Xuan Yi's tone of voice with some disdain and immediately shut her mouth. She was not a descendant of the Leng family. To be precise, she was a descendant of the Leng family, but her surname was not Leng, nor was she born to Miss Leng's family.
It's just that her mother and the lady from the Leng Mansion are sister-in-law. Her uncle is the husband of the lady from the Leng Mansion.
"Young Master Cong is not in the Cong family at the moment." The queen changed the topic and said softly, "He was taken away by his master. I heard that he was locked up, probably in the place where he studied. I'm afraid that place is
It’s not easy to enter, so be careful.”
Xuan Yi nodded and stood up, "Take care of yourself."
The Cong family's courtyard in the capital was not large, and its location was somewhat remote. Xuan Yi's carriage was parked far away, in front of a restaurant.
Someone saw it and walked up to him as if he were meeting a familiar person. He greeted the driver of the carriage and said with a smile as if greeting guests: "Hello, dear guests, do you want to stay in a hotel or eat? Although it's not as good as here."
Yunxianglou is famous, but the food and wine are also good."
The coachman nodded, not surprised by the other party's enthusiasm, and handed the carriage to the visitor. Several people followed Xuan Yi into the restaurant. They heard the waiter inside smiled and said: "I'm so sorry, dear guests, we
My boss has some distant relatives coming over, so I’m going to entertain you all today. Our boss said that today’s meal will be his. I’m really sorry. Please, please.”
The diners who were eating didn't object much when they arrived. Anyway, they had eaten about the same amount. They could just pack up what they had eaten at the beginning and take it home. It was a wasted meal. Naturally, no one would blame the owner of the store for entertaining distant guests at this time.
Relatives, especially the guests, are all very generous. Especially the one in the middle is handsome and handsome. You can tell at a glance that he is a rich man.
Xuan Yi sat down at a clean table that had been cleared away. The waiters immediately brought tea and water. After sending away the diners, the waiters immediately hung a closure sign at the door and closed the door. The kitchen at the back immediately prepared exquisite wine and food.
, and arranged for Jin Guards and the others to sit down at the table next to them.
After a while, a middle-aged man came out from behind. His face was very delicate, his brows were at the temples, and there was a hint of fascination in his frail manner. When he got closer, he looked much younger than his actual age. He seemed to be
He looks just in his early thirties, seven or eight years younger than his actual age.
"You are here." He spoke in a very gentle tone, without the cunningness of a businessman. He sat down opposite Xuan Yi, hesitated, and asked softly, "How about Ruoshui?"
Xuan Yi smiled, sighed softly, and said: "You obviously like Ruoshui, but you have refused to tell her. She doesn't know that she is the daughter of Emperor Liu and Senior Yimin, let alone Prince Rui and Prince Ruishui.
Princess Rui is her biological grandfather and grandmother, but you have always refused to express your feelings because of your status. Now that she has fallen in love with Cong Zhizhang, you are really willing to look after the Cong family for her."
The man just smiled gently and said lightly: "I am twenty years older than her, so it is okay to be her father. She likes Mr. Cong, which is good. Although Mr. Cong is more stupid and loyal, he is not bad in nature and has a pure personality."
, and she is a teacher from a well-known and decent family. If Ruoshui has been growing up as an ordinary woman, it will be a good end for her to marry again and not experience the right and wrong in the world. I hope she lives a happy life. If she is happy, I will be happy."
Xuan Yi did not argue with him and said indifferently: "It's up to you. By the way, I just found out that your father is still alive. You look more like your father. Although he is very old, he still has a good appearance.
, my body and bones are also very good, I almost died in his hands. He is still the same cruel and ruthless."
The man was startled and blurted out: "Is it really him who always appears around Ruoshui but never shows his true face? However, I have not been with him since I was a child, so naturally I don't know him. I originally
It was the product of an occasional one-night affair between him and my mother. I didn't regard him as my father, and he never knew that he still had a son like me alive."
Xuan Yi just smiled and said, "Actually, you are just a child who had a one-night romance between Shen Moyan and a slave who took care of him. You were sent out to study with your master shortly after you were born. In fact, you are not Shen Moyan's child at all.
If you don't say it, Ruoshui won't know. Besides, the grudge between your father and Ruoshui's parents has nothing to do with you, so why should you keep fussing over it and not letting it go?"
The man smiled bitterly, "I know you are trying to comfort me, but unfortunately my mind has been made up. I would rather protect Ruoshui as a friend for the rest of my life than let Ruoshui be embarrassed because of my existence. One day she will
Knowing her life experience, she will also know my identity one day. She can definitely recognize who my descendant is from my appearance. As long as she has met my father, as long as she knows about her parents, I will be with her.
They are enemies, and I don't want her to feel sad about it. It's better for friends to become enemies than for husband and wife to become enemies."
"Well, I'm an outsider and I don't know what you think. Just take care of yourself." Xuan Yi smiled.
The man also smiled, poured the wine and put it in front of Xuan Yi. Xuan Yi knew that the man in front of him never drank. Ever since he knew that he was Shen Moyan, he had found a slave to vent his drunkenness, and with him, Shen Moyan didn't care at all.
The descendants who remembered this no longer drank alcohol, and usually only drank tea instead of wine.
Watching Xuan Yi drink the wine, the man suddenly remembered something and said softly: "I just remembered something. The woman you are marrying now is named Xian Ziya. She looks very similar to Ruoshui? She also has a sister named Xian Ziya.
The two are identical sisters."
"Yes." Xuan Yi nodded, smiled slightly and said, "It's rare that you care about things other than Ruoshui."
