Chapter 1218 The haze dissipated, and the bright light appeared
Listening to Xuan Tianyan's words, Fendai felt particularly aggrieved. She asked Xuan Tianyan: "I'm just a substitute. Is that so for you? Do you know that once you are used to being pampered like this, one day suddenly It would be very sad to lose again. I was never really frustrated and separated from you because I couldn’t get that high position. Xuan Tianyan, I just heard about your past. I can’t I don’t care how many women you have married to Prince Li’s palace, and I don’t care what kind of status you have given to those women. You will not be like my second sister, who insists that His Highness Ninth Prince will only marry her. I have always done you this life. It is only my plan. I have already thought about how to deal with the women you bring into your house one after another in the future. But, Xuan Tianyan, I don’t care about those things, but it doesn’t mean that I don’t care about you either. Think of me as that person's substitute. I can win against a living person, but I can never win against a dead person who lives in your heart. Xuan Tianyan, I'm afraid of that kind of life."
Xuan Tianyan was stunned, "You know everything? But then I never regarded you as a substitute! Fendai, at first, but now it is no longer the case. You are different from her, she has always been tender. , you are always gentle when you walk. But you are always fierce, unruly and willful, and you will even beat and scold me. But, I am used to it, Feng Fendai, I am used to being beaten and scolded by you, and I am used to your bad temper. I am used to it. I just don’t want to sit on that throne. Apart from that throne, I can give you anything you want. In fact, you have seen over the years that there is nothing good about being an emperor. It is tiring and you have to guard against being plotted by others at all times. You have to worry about the people. If you don't do a little bit well, the whole country will rebel against you. Think about it, the throne is within easy reach for your second sister and second brother-in-law, but they throw it away like a burden. I gave it to Lao Liu, do you still think it’s a good thing?”
Xuan Tianyan's words made Feng Fendai enlightened. She murmured: "They don't want it? They... don't want it!" Then she suddenly burst into laughter. The pinch marks on her neck were still there, and with her smile like this, She looked very attractive. She said, "After so much time, I realized that I was a joke! I competed with her in everything, competed with her in everything, from the position of the legitimate daughter of the Feng family to the position of middle palace later. Queen. I thought that what I was fighting for was the best, what others cared about most, but it turned out that what I was fighting for and comparing was actually things that others didn’t want. What she didn’t care about, I always treated as a treasure. ,Xuan Tianyan, tell me, am I just a fool?"
"I want a fool, too." Xuan Tianyan hugged her tightly, "Feng Fendai, I want you to be a fool, too. I wish you were a fool. Haven't you heard? Fools are blessed with fools. If you are a little bit dumber, your life will be better. Be happy."
Fendai smiled bitterly, but she was no longer stubborn. It was as if her mind suddenly changed, and the hazy sky above her head suddenly became clear. In the past few months in the courtyard, many burdens have been slowly unloaded. The last point, At this moment, she completely disappeared. Finally, she laughed and said to Xuan Tianyan: "If you want it, go for it! Xuan Tianyan, I am also tired. I chose you when I was most proud, I left you when I was most desperate. I had put so many heavy burdens on you, but you didn't leave. You always stood there, letting me make noises and curses. Xuan Tianyan, you let a prince His image has been reduced to the dust, but it has made a man's glory supreme. Now is the time when I am the most tired, but it is also the time when my mind is clearest. I come back to you at such a time, if you don't If you hate me and still want me, then go for it! I will be old enough in three months. Marry me back to your Prince Li's palace. From now on, I will accompany you to spend this long life well."
"Okay!" Xuan Tianyan nodded, unable to hide the joy on his face, "As long as you are willing, I will marry you home with the most solemn ceremony. Feng Fendai, with you, there will no longer be a cold place.
It’s not the royal palace, but our home.”
He helped Feng Fendai stand up and asked Xiaobao who was standing beside him, "You can no longer call me brother the prince. You have to change your name and call me brother-in-law!"
Xiaobao finally became happy. He didn't care about being afraid of the bleeding corpse on the ground. He clapped his little hands and jumped happily. But after jumping twice, he regained his composure again. His little mouth pursed, he looked at Xuan Tianyan, and then
He looked at Feng Fendai and whispered: "Then Xiaobao won't be able to be with sister every day? Will sister come back here to see Xiaobao?"
Fendai was also a little absent-minded. She didn't answer, but just looked at Xuan Tianyan. From now on, she would be his wife, but she had never heard of her getting married with a younger brother. In the end, Xuan Tianyan still had to give an answer to this matter.
Xuan Tianyan smiled helplessly and shook his head: "My princess, the person you married is a prince, and the prince's parents are in the government! We don't have an old man or an old lady in our house, so you alone make the decision. This
Why do you still want to come to me for such a trivial matter?"
Fendai was stunned, "You mean, I can take Xiaobao to live with me in Prince Li's Mansion?"
"Yes." Xuan Tianyan emphasized again, "You alone have the final say in Prince Li's Mansion in three months. You can let whoever you want to leave, and whoever you want to live in, be allowed to live in it.
I like to be lively, and it’s not enough for a little baby to be noisy. Feng Fendai, you have to hurry up and give me more children."
Finally, the warm sunshine appeared in this poor little courtyard, and finally, on Feng Fendai's face, you could see that smile without calculation and cruelty. Even if there was a corpse lying at their feet.
, the air in this courtyard is still fresh and crisp in autumn, and it is so bright that it is almost hard to keep your eyes open.
Dong Ying took out the money bag she had just received from Xuan Tianyan and handed it back. She said: "Now His Highness the Fifth Prince no longer needs to secretly provide aid, and I no longer have to worry about spending the money. I dare to follow you."
Your Highness, please ask for some more money. Our young lady has not made new clothes for a long time, and the young master has had delicious meat for a long time. Also, there are few servants in this small yard. Your Highness, please hire a good cook for us.
!”
Feng Fendai glared at Dongying, "Damn girl, you actually want money from others behind my back?"
Dongying stuck out her tongue: "Miss, you are no longer a member of your family, you are one of your own. Your Highness, is this slave right?"
Xuan Tianyan laughed loudly: "Yes! Everything is right!" He looked at the purse again and said, "Keep it! You don't need to give flowers to your lady, this is what I reward you for. You have been working hard all these years.
Staying with your lady is a blessing!"
Dongying's mouth opened in a circle, "Did you give it to the slave? Did you give it all?" Then he weighed the money bag. It was very heavy. It must have weighed dozens of taels at least! She was just a servant with a death contract, so this
To her, dozens of taels was a large amount.
Xuan Tianyan nodded: "I have rewarded you. In addition, there is also a hundred taels of silver notes, which is my thank you gift for taking care of the princess. From now on, I will continue to follow your young lady until I find a good family.
I will also give you a generous dowry."
Dongying cried immediately, knelt down with a plop, and kept kowtowing to thank her.
Fen Dai looked at her and suddenly thought of something. She asked Xuan Tianyan: "There are many concubines in your house, would you like to add one more? There has always been a rule that when a daughter gets married, her parents will choose that daughter for them."
A smart and loyal girl was given as a dowry. The girl was said to be a servant, but she was also a member of the house that the young lady planned to give to her uncle. Because it was common for men to have three wives and four concubines, the parents were afraid that their daughter would be isolated and helpless, so they gave her a house.
When the stranger passes by, the two of us can at least have someone to take care of us. I..."
"What are you thinking about?" Xuan Tianyan interrupted her. He knew what Fendai meant. This girl wanted to give Dongying to him and let him take over the house. But he had never thought about this.
He said to Feng Fendai: "Don't think about it. I will deal with those people in Prince Li's Mansion. Don't worry, although I let them in, I have never entered their house. They are just for anger."
It's just yours. I will send them away when I get back, and I will never cause any trouble to you. Lao Jiu can promise your second sister a life-long marriage, but I can't give you the imperial power you want, but I accept you as the only one in this life, but
I won’t lose to them.”
Xuan Tianyan gave Feng Fendai a promise, and Feng Fendai smiled and said: "Finally there is one thing I can match her for."
Coming out of the small courtyard, Xuan Tianyan couldn't hide his bright mood at all. He walked all the way back to Prince Li's Mansion. The smile on his face made the people in mourning for the seventh prince on the street unhappy again. But he couldn't care anymore.
After so much, Feng Fendai realized that she finally no longer rejected him, and the engagement between them could finally be fulfilled. There were still three months left, and he couldn't wait any longer, so he immediately decided to marry the girl on the day she got her hairpins.
After getting married, he wanted to get rid of those women in Prince Li's palace. He thought that if he renovated the entire palace, it would have a festive atmosphere.
But it wasn't until he returned home that he remembered that he went to Feng Fendai today. Apart from really wanting to see her, he also really had something to say. Feng Xiangrong vomited blood and looked very ill.
People run into the street. What if something happens?
But now that everyone else is back, there is no need to go back. Feng Xiangrong vomited blood and Fendai probably couldn't control it. It was better to find a more suitable person. After thinking about it, the news finally reached Prince Ping's Mansion and told him
The fourth prince Xuan Tianyi.
Of course Xuan Tianyi knew that Xiangrong was seriously ill, but he didn't expect that she would sneak into the street alone and vomit a lot of blood. Xuan Tianyi was very scared. Every time he saw Xiangrong, he would feel like he was about to lose his life.
The feeling of gradually withdrawing became more and more obvious. Although he didn't want to admit it, he could really see it.
Xuan Tianyi was so distressed that he couldn't help it. However, when Xuan Tianhua died, he was so sad that he couldn't sleep for days and nights, let alone Feng Xiangrong? How to persuade him about this?
