It was raining continuously. On this day, Nalan Fengjin and Du Yuze just came back from Qingcheng. They were walking happily together, and Du Yuze thoughtfully held an umbrella for her. But for some reason, when they first reached the woods at the foot of the mountain, Du Yuze suddenly
Her expression became solemn, and after walking for a while, she saw that Du Yuze's expression was getting worse and worse. She was about to ask, but his acupuncture points were suddenly pressed by him. Her eyes were full of doubts, but she saw him pick her up and place her on a tree by the roadside.
On the high tree, he blocked her with the dense branches and leaves of the tree trunk, and whispered to her: "Stay here and don't make a sound."
Nalan Fengjin glared at him and thought to himself, you tapped my acupuncture points and tried to speak, but you couldn't speak. But when she saw him so nervous and solemn, she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. She didn't realize that someone was following her just now.
them.
Not long after he landed, he saw a group of people appearing not far away. The first one to arrive was a large and gorgeous carriage.
The wheels stopped in the mud. Nalan Fengjin saw clearly from a high position that a group of people stopped in front of Du Yuze. A lady got off the carriage. Originally, a maid held an oil umbrella to protect her from the rain, but she took it over.
The order said: "You guys wait a hundred steps away."
"Yes." Everyone responded in unison and backed away a hundred paces.
The woman walked slowly to Du Yuze and stood in front of her. Her exquisite embroidered shoes were stained with mud, which made her frown slightly.
Nalan Fengjin suddenly heard Du Yuze kneel down and say: "The sinner Du Yuze kowtows to the Imperial Concubine. May the Imperial Concubine be blessed with peace and prosperity. May she live a thousand years."
At this moment, Nalan Fengjin realized who was in front of Du Yuze. With her acupuncture points pressed, she could not speak or move. She could only let the wind and rain gradually wet her body, and she became colder from the outside to the inside. A huge wave of
Uneasiness flowed in her heart, gradually turning into fear. She looked at Du Yuze intently.
Under the tree, Du Yuze's figure was stiff but still upright, and the imperial concubine Du Yuxin said: "Go back with me."
"No." The umbrella in his hand had been thrown aside, and the rain gradually wetted his hair.
Du Yuxin slapped Du Yuze hard on the face and said sternly: "What did my mother teach you when she was alive? You abandoned your sister, the Du family, and everything just for a woman!?"
Du Yuze darkened his eyes and remained silent.
Du Yuxin flicked her sleeves and said angrily: "If you don't go back with me, I will kill her." She raised her hand and pointed in the direction of Nalan Fengjin. At this moment, there was another person beside Nalan Fengjin, pointing his finger.
He pinched her throat and with just a little force, Nalan Fengjin would die on the spot.
Du Yuze's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly said: "Sister, let her go." When Du Yuze was in a hurry, he blurted out and called the imperial concubine his sister, hoping that she would take care of the relationship between her siblings and be merciful.
As expected, Du Yuxin was shocked. She lowered her sharp gaze, approached Du Yuze, helped him up, and advised: "You want her, and it's not like my sister doesn't agree. You go back with your sister first, and then take her in after half a year."
It’s not too late for a man to have three wives and four concubines, and it’s normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, and my sister is not an unreasonable person.”
Du Yuze spoke silently, but the stiffness of his back revealed his stubbornness and disapproval at the moment.
"If you don't go back with me, I will kill her now." Du Yuxin said coldly.
Du Yuze's body trembled slightly, and the drizzle wet his shirt. Ever since he was a child, he has probably never felt so powerless.
Du Yuxin suddenly said: "You abandoned your family and this palace just for this woman. Is she really worthy of you?"
Du Yuze said without any hesitation: "It's worth it."
Du Yuxin's body froze, her face lost color, and then she snorted coldly and said: "The emperor woke up a few days ago and knew that he didn't have much time, so he secretly recruited his confidants into the palace and made a will behind his back. Du Yuze, the emperor
It’s very likely that I won’t be able to do it in the next few days.”
Hearing this, Du Yuze was shocked.
Hearing this, Nalan Fengjin was even more shocked. Could it be that his father... Nalan Fengjin didn't dare to think about it anymore.
"Our Du family has been in power over the past few years and has offended many people. Since you disappeared off the cliff, do you know how many people are looking for you? There are also many people who want to kill you." Du Yuxin sighed and continued: "The Su family originally
He was lukewarm towards us, and obviously had no intention of us. Now that we have successfully married, it is even harder to shake. In these years, Xuanming Mansion has tens of thousands of troops and is eyeing us. In the south, there is also the Zhennan Prince's Mansion who is at odds with us.
Prince Jin, you know very well how many people want to take advantage of the chaos to destroy our Du family and replace us. Now that the emperor has not forgotten to issue a will when he is dying, Nalan Hanyi's identity is finally a big problem, and there are rumors in the world.
,Princess Phoenix has returned..."
"Du Yuze, sister needs you. Go back with her." There was a trace of pleading in Du Yuxin's words.
Du Yuxin added: "You know, my sister has been walking on thin ice every day these past few years. There are not many people she can trust around her. She is always worried that if she makes a wrong step on an errand, it will bring death to the Du family. For many years, not even a single night has passed.
An Mian, the only thing my sister can count on now is you, my biological brother. Although there are many people in the Du family, they mostly live in pleasure. Only you can assist me, and I only trust you."??
