It turned out to be him!

It was actually He Qi, who was said to have died on the battlefield in the He family!

No wonder, no wonder Bai Chenghuan was able to become the princess of King Qin so easily, and then become the queen, no wonder the Bai family was able to soar into the sky!

Sadness and bitterness occupied Feng Jinniang's whole heart-

If he hadn't disliked the He family at that time, then everything would have been different now!

Two years ago, the eldest lord of the He family once asked people to propose to his father, but after some discussion, his parents felt that the eldest lady of the Feng family would not come forward, and she must be unhappy in her heart, not to mention that He Qi had a reputation as a gangster in the eyes of the people of Yuzhou.

Moreover, the He family was a prominent family in Yuzhou, but at that time, the old lady He had already been a member for many years, and the He family's power in the capital was far inferior to before, and the Feng family was still considered Xuanhe at that time.

Although she had also seen He Qiyi when she was in the spring, she didn't think much about it.

Compared with the powerful and wealthy, in her eyes, the only advantage of He Qi that day was probably that he was handsome, and he was not particularly worthy of her desperate value.

But who would have expected that He Qi, who was not treated well, would actually become the emperor!

It's a pity that she is in the boudoir, although she is stronger than ordinary women, but what happened in the middle, she actually doesn't know anything!

Is this a mistake, just missing everything that should have belonged to her?!

Yao Zezan pushed the responsibility of guarding the emperor to Zhai Feng tonight, and at Feng Jinniang's request, he took her to see the prosperity of the capital before sending her back to Yuzhou.

But at this moment, when he saw her looking at the pair of beautiful people laughing in the crowd in distraction, he understood.

Still unwilling?

He let out a sigh from the bottom of his heart, how could such a woman be Lin Wei?

When he took her to wander in the sea of lights, he was in a trance, as if Lin Wei was still alive, and he could still take her out to see the lantern as a fiancé on the Shangyuan Festival, buy her the best lantern, and win her smile.

It's a pity that this extravagant hope of his was completely shattered.

"Do you want to go on? If not, let's go back." ”

only treats her as an ordinary woman, Yao Zezan doesn't have so much patience.

Feng Jinniang was suddenly awakened, and in a chaotic mood, she didn't feel Yao Zezan's coldness, but pointed to the person in front of her who was gradually moving away, and was about to catch up:

"That's not Bai Chenghuan and ......"

"Miss Feng, the queen's name is not something that can be called casually. Since you know that you are the queen's mother, you still point your finger, this is a great disrespectful sin!"

Yao Zezan's expression at this moment vividly interpreted the cold Fu Han in the past.

Feng Jinniang finally noticed that something was wrong, a chill rose from her heart, she turned to look at Yao Zezan, and suddenly felt that this person who had been gentle with her before seemed to have become a different person altogether.

"I just, I just want to ask her why she wants to kill my Feng family......"

"If you don't even know this, then your Feng family has fallen to this point, and you should have nothing to say, besides, the queen mother has made it clear that she doesn't want to see you again, if you let you come to her, it will be my dereliction of duty and sin. Let's go back. ”

Yao Zezan watched the emperor and empress disappear into the crowd, turned around and went back, regardless of whether Feng Jinniang behind him followed or not.

Feng Jinniang had the heart to continue to catch up, but she stood still.

From Yao Zezan's words, she could also hear that the two of them, who were emperors and queens, even if they were wearing ordinary people's clothes and walking on the street were no different from ordinary people, they were not easy for her to approach now.

And Yao Zezan -

This is already her last reliance in the capital!

Feng Jinniang tightly held the lantern rod in her hand, turned around and caught up with Yao Zezan.

But she didn't expect that after returning to the Ningguo Mansion, a bigger blow was waiting for her.

"Miss Feng, clean up after you go back, and tomorrow, I'll have someone send you back to Yuzhou." ”

When Yao Zezan entered the gate, he suddenly turned around and said.

"Why?"

Feng Jinniang stood on the high steps outside the gate of the Ningguo Mansion, looking up in shock, feeling pitiful.

She knew that this person would not be good to her for no reason, but for this reason, was it only enough to support him to be good to her for so many days?

"We are not relatives, Miss Feng has lived in Ningguo Mansion for a long time, and she will be criticized, for the sake of the girl's reputation, it is better for the girl to return to Yuzhou as soon as possible. ”

For her reputation?

If it was really for her reputation, then why did you bring her back to the Ningguo Mansion in the first place?!

Feng Jinniang was angry and puzzled, and her maid was also panicked when she learned the news.

"Miss, Ning Guogong wants to drive us back to Yuzhou, what should we do?"

What to do?

Feng Jinniang sat in the warm room, and her heart gradually cooled.

What can I do?

She could almost imagine her life after she went back—

As the daughter of the Feng family, who was completely rejected by the emperor, her father lost her official position again, and her future was nothing more than to find a man with a mediocre family in Yuzhou to marry, and then live a life of obscurity until the day she died.

How could she accept such a life?

The maid's chatter still rang in her ears:

"After going back, the lord and the lady don't know what kind of family they will find for the young lady, so it is better to stay in the Ningguo Mansion......"

If it was usual, Feng Jinniang would have scolded and stopped it a long time ago, but at this time, she had no intention of investigating whether the maid's sudden broken mouth was really just casual talk or temptation.

Yes, how good the Ningguo Mansion is, at least, it is countless times better than the life she can foresee.

As the night deepened, Ning Guogong silently looked at the book in his hand under the lamp.

The wind outside also slowly stopped, and only the crackling sound of burning charcoal from time to time.

In addition to being full of wind and frost, judging from the figure, it is completely the time when he was as warm as a jade prince in the past.

Until a soft knock on the door broke the silence.

"Who?"

Yao Zezan raised his head with a frown.

At this time, Duchess Ning Guo never dared to disturb - in the eyes of her, who didn't know a word, reading was a sacred thing, and whenever he read a book, she avoided it far away.

"Brother Yao, it's me. ”

A sweet girl's voice came from outside the door:

"This night is long, I stewed sweet soup with my own hands, and I want to invite Brother Yao to taste it. ”

Yao Zezan snapped the book on the bookcase:

"Go back!"

What does such a time and such a move mean, I couldn't be clearer!

A deep anger rose from the bottom of Yao Zezan's heart - her thoughts like this really ruined her and Lin Wei's resemblance!

"Brother Yao, I ......"

"No matter what you think, go back immediately, or don't blame me for being unkind!"

The cold voice shook Feng Jinniang outside the door in place, and the hand that wanted to push the door froze in front of her, and the tray in her hand was shaky.

No matter how thick-skinned she was, she felt humiliated, and her tears were about to fall, but she still couldn't help asking:

"Brother Yao, you ...... What's wrong with me, or is there something wrong with me, Madame? If you don't want to do anything to me, why do you want to bring me back?"

"I'll bring you back, just to see that you're pitiful......"

Yao Zezan felt a headache, although he didn't do anything, he really made a big mistake.

"There's nothing wrong with you, but you are you and can't compare to my wife. ”

"What if I have to compare? Brother Yao, do you take it seriously, haven't you liked me at all? I don't have to compare with my wife, I really admire Brother Yao, even if I stay by your side, I can only be a slave and a servant, I am willing to ......."

The woman outside the house was crying and complaining, but the room suddenly fell silent.

Around the corner not far away, a woman dressed in brocade gritted her teeth and rushed this way:

"This vixen!

"Madam, calm down, you can sit down with Grandpa Shiguo and accept it privately with her at this time!"

Her personal mother has experience in the end, and grabbed her.

"But she is so shameless, how can Grandpa Guo not be moved?"

Duchess Ning Guo was desperate.

It's not that there are no concubines in the house, but if such a delicate and open-skinned woman stays, will there be a place for her to stand in the future?

At that moment, the closed door creaked open.

Yao Zezan's face had completely condensed into frost.

The woman, who had said that she sincerely admired him a moment ago, was immediately frightened by his cold aura and took a big step back, almost hitting the pillar under the eaves of the porch.

"Miss Feng, firstly, my wife married me when I was in danger, and she has great kindness to me, and you can't compare with her at all, let alone compare with her. Second, I don't like you at all, you think wrong, and I can't keep you as a slave in my house. Does Miss Feng want me to be responsible for you for the rest of your life because I took you in for a while?"

"If Miss Feng still wants to entangle, then you don't have to wait for tomorrow, I will immediately let someone send you out of the house!"

"I ...... I ......"

Feng Jinniang snorted twice, and finally lost her self-esteem, threw away the tray in her hand, covered her face and turned around and ran away, and her crying could be faintly heard.

Duchess Ning Guo stood in place in a daze, and even forgot to hide so that her husband wouldn't see her-

He felt that she was very kind to him, and that woman was not as good as her at all?

She actually had such a good time in his heart?

The simple-minded Duchess Ning Guo immediately burst into tears.

The grandmother on the side was so anxious that she dragged her back:

"Madam, let's go! It's terrible to be seen by Grandpa Guo!"

Yao Zezan had already heard the sound and looked over, and then walked in front of his wife, his eyes gradually softened.

The appearance of the woman in front of her is just mediocre, her temperament is even more vulgar, and her tears are blurred under the lamp, and she is embarrassed, without the demeanor that a duchess should have.

But she is also a woman from a good family, giving birth to children for him, managing the back house, never disliking his humility when he was in trouble, and never abandoning him.

He couldn't live up to her anymore.

"Grandpa Guo, I'm ...... Concubine, concubine ......"

Seeing her husband, whose bearing was not at all the same as that of ordinary men, Duchess Ning Guo was still habitually as nervous as when she saw him for the first time, wiped her tears with her sleeve indiscriminately, and regretted that she was so indecent, he would definitely be disgusted.

Yao Zezan took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and gently wiped away her tears:

"Liniang, you don't have to worry. No matter how good a woman she is, I won't take a concubine again. ”

"Really?" Duchess Ning Guo was overjoyed and couldn't believe it, and cautiously probed: "But you have already accepted three concubines...... If you really like this Feng Jinniang, the concubine body is not intolerable......"

The Shangyuan Festival in the capital, she heard about it when she was in the northwest, and she longed for it for a long time.

But he never took her out, but tonight, he took the woman to watch the lanterns, if you want to say that you don't like it, Duchess Ning Guo doesn't dare to believe it.

Yao Zezan saw her like this, and became more and more guilty and sad:

"No, I take concubines, I don't like them. It's just that at that time, when I first arrived in the northwest, the day was precarious, I didn't know when I would die under someone else's knife, I was afraid that if I died, the Yao family would be extinct. That's why I thought, have a few more children, that's all. ”

"Li Niang, you've worked hard all these years. ”

After her husband went to the capital, she took a large group of children and three concubines in the northwest to survive, and Duchess Ning Guo was also a very tough woman.

But today, in the face of a husband who is completely different from before, she can't stop her tears.

"Grandpa Guo, after so many years...... In fact, it's nothing, I can occupy a place in your heart, and the concubine body feels that it is worth ......."

She said a word, and then stopped.

She is still stupid, just like the first time she saw him, she can't say anything nice to him who is so good-looking.

Yao Zezan stretched out his hand, and for the first time gently took this helpless woman into his arms:

"It's not just about taking a place...... In the future, there will only be you left, don't be afraid, there will be no one left. ”

From the moment he returned to the capital and learned of Lin Wei's death, he felt that all the emotions of his youth had been buried with Lin Wei's death.

He couldn't put anyone else in his heart, including his bed-sharing wife.

No one knew about the tomb buried in his heart, and no one could say a word to him.

But when the chaotic years passed, settled down again, and he had the leisure to take a good look at his wife, he realized that her tears could also pierce his heart.

He once changed his name to Fu Han, the word Bingxin, which means that the heart is like ice, and it can't be warmer in this life.

But after the ups and downs, he had to be alone and returned to his former home, and he felt that Yao Zezan might be able to come back.

At first glance, the snow was clear, and the moonlight was silent.

He took his wife's hand, trying his best to accommodate her bewilderment, and walked firmly.

"Liniang, let's go see the children, and then, I'll take you to the street to see the lights. ”

"The kids are all asleep...... At this time, can you still keep up?"

Duchess Ning Guo was surprised and apprehensive.

He bowed his head slightly:

"Yes, I can also take a look at the last beautiful scenery, and I will take you there every year in the future. ”

The red plums of the Ningguo Mansion bloom particularly enchantingly in the weather after the snowfall.

When Yao Zezan passed by with his wife, he glanced back.

Grandmother, father, stepmother, second brother Zexu, third brother Zejia, younger sister Zexi.

His family will probably be able to come back.

The moonlight is like a light veil, paving the road under your feet.

Maybe his mission in this life has not been completed, but he is willing to go on.
