Since then, the prince has never been to Aunt Shu's side again, and he really gave up the title. Aunt www.biquge.info is just an aunt in the end, and her children are all fostered in the name of the princess.

Rui Niang moved away from the twilight moon and returned to live in another courtyard with joy, and changed it to Yang's mansion, and she used her previous maiden name, Yang Mingwei. Because Duan San followed Xi Yunjian to the southwest, Huanhuan was depressed for a while, but soon became elated because Rui Niang was going to go to the southwest with the caravan to procure.

When Rui Niang and the others left, Xi Cui went to deliver it, and they also took the child away, and the coachman who helped Rui Niang drive was obviously a living person. But Xi Cui looked a little familiar. Huan Huan treated him very politely, and the man seemed to have a sense of nobility between his gestures, and he didn't look like an ordinary person. Xi Cui wanted to go up and ask, but in the end she didn't go, Rui Niang's eye for people has always been good, since she chose the person herself, she shouldn't be troublesome.

Xi Yunjian took over the industry in Xi Cui's hands before, and with his departure, Zhang Xun, Bai Fatzi, Wang Yonglin and others seem to be rarely active in the capital, I heard that they are now focusing their business elsewhere, and the capital is not often here.

In a huge capital, Xi Cui stood on the most lively street, and suddenly felt that his heart was still empty.

Twilight was empty, and now there was only one cook left.

When Xi Cui arrived, the cook was cleaning the yard, and the ground covered with fallen leaves in the courtyard was yellow. Xi Cui stepped on those leaves and walked in slowly, and the cook quickly dropped the broom in her hand to boil water and make tea behind. Xi Cui was helped into her original house by Lingxiang, she was married from here, standing at the door, it seemed that she could still hear the noise at that time, but now it is quiet and chilling.

Looking out of the window, his eyes were full of familiar scenes, Duan San would stand under that tree every day, sometimes just in a daze and sometimes actually thinking about things. Huanhuan always likes to make trouble with him at this time, and Duan San always avoids it in anger......

Now that those people have left, but she is left alone, Xi Cui sat down weakly, suddenly a little sad, and tears slid down.

Lingxiang didn't know what to say, so she had to quietly withdraw, blocking the cook who was about to come in for tea.

These days, only Lingxiang knows the bitterness in Xi Cui's heart best, although she is now the princess of Li, but the estrangement between her and Yu Feng seems to be getting more and more serious. Even at the succession ceremony, he wanted to hold her hand, but she quietly avoided it.

The old princess was fine when she was there, and the two would pretend to go to the old princess to eat, but since the old princess and the old princess left, they almost didn't even say a word. Yu Feng has been sleeping alone in the study during this time, and Xi Cui has been lying in bed reading books all night.

But it doesn't seem that there was a real quarrel or anything between them, everything happened so inexplicably. It's hard to figure it out.

Every time, Xi Cui could slowly fall asleep at dawn, and then Yu Feng would come in and take the book in her hand, help her cover the quilt, and then go to the barracks. And Xi Cui went to the study to prepare a change of clothes for Yu Feng after waking up. Just looking at this, these two people don't seem to really fall out, they obviously care about each other, but no one knows what this is about.

However, someone soon gave Lingxiang an answer.

Princess Chaoyang's car soon arrived at the door of Dusk's return, but only two maids followed her in.

Hearing the movement, Xi Cui took a deep breath and got dressed and came out of it.

Her current identity no longer needs to salute Princess Chaoyang, so Xi Cui just nodded to her.

Before Princess Chaoyang could speak, the two maids beside her were not happy, and took a step forward and pointed at Xi Cui and said, "Presumptuous!" I don't bow when I see Princess Chaoyang! It just doesn't make sense! ”

Xi Cui squinted her eyes and looked at the maid who spoke, and said to Princess Chaoyang, "Princess, since you are going out, you should pay attention to the royal face, at least bring a sensible dog!" ”

"You ......" What else did the maid say, she was slapped in the face by Princess Chaoyang, "Don't get out of the way, do you dare to talk like this if you know who this is?" No face! After speaking, Princess Chaoyang took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands, and said to Xi Cui with a smile, "This is a dignified princess!" ”

After hearing this, the maid quickly knelt down.

Xi Cuili ignored the other side, and stretched out his hand to ask Lingxiang to help him sit on the edge of the stone table beside him. The cook served the tea that had been prepared.

Chaoyang waited for a long time and didn't see Xi Cui beckoning him to sit down, so he simply walked over and sat opposite Xi Cui.

Xi Cui glanced at her, "Why is the princess free to come back to me today?" ”

Chaoyang held the teacup in his hand and warmed his hands, but he didn't drink it, just put it in his hand and played with it. "My body is no longer suitable for drinking tea, so it's better to ask someone to prepare me a cup of hot water."

Xi Cui suddenly smiled, "The princess won't come here to drink our white water, right?" ”

Chaoyang suppressed the anger in his heart, clenched the teacup in his hand hard, but said with a smile on his face, "I haven't seen each other for so many days, Xi Cui, your joke skills have really improved a lot...... Why do you think I came to you? ”

"Reika and Huixiang have been bothering the princess for a long time, princess, shouldn't you send them back? I don't have a lot of maids on my side, and I'm really waiting to use Lixiang and Huixiang. Xi Cui took the hot water handed over by the cook and put it respectfully in front of Princess Chaoyang, "This cup of hot water should be regarded as Xi Cui's gratitude to the princess for taking care of the two of them during this time." ”

"What? Hasn't he handed them over to you yet? Princess Chaoyang suddenly laughed out loud after hearing this, "Lixiang and Huixiang were taken away by Yufeng's people before they arrived at my mansion, I thought he had handed them over to you." ”

It's already been handed over to Yufeng? Xi Cui remembered the conversation between Yu Feng and the deputy general that night, could it be that the deputy general went to ask for someone and Princess Chaoyang handed over the person to him that night, right? But why didn't Yufeng let them come to see him?

Suddenly, Princess Chaoyang took out a handkerchief and covered her mouth, looking like she was about to vomit. Xi Cui looked at the tea in her hand and the water on the table, but fortunately neither of them moved, so she was not afraid that she would say that the water was not clean and that she would find trouble here.

But at this moment, suddenly the maid beside Princess Chaoyang hurriedly stepped forward and helped Princess Chaoyang and said, "Princess, you are now a person with a body, you can't sit on such a cold stone bench, the slave maid should go to the sedan chair to give you the cushion." This kid may be the one who will be the son of the world in the future, but be careful......"

"Shizi?" I don't know why when I heard these two words, Xi Cui couldn't help but think of Yu Feng.

Princess Chaoyang sent the maid out with a smile, and looked at Xi Cui with a slightly red face, "It seems that Yu Feng hasn't told you yet, right?" It's also this kind of thing that makes him open his mouth? I just knew that he didn't know how to tell you, so I told Lixiang and Huixiang what happened, who knew that Yufeng didn't let them see you...... Really, it's like this, and I have to come and tell you about it myself. Princess Chaoyang said that she was nauseous again, covered her mouth for a long time and didn't speak, and then said after calming down for a while, "It's already like this, I have children now, but Yufeng didn't give me an answer for a long time, what do you say I should do?" No matter how I say it, I am a princess of a country, do you want me to have children out of wedlock? Xi Cui, you are also a woman, we had a good relationship before, at least for the sake of me helping Yun Ting, can you help me this time? Yufeng, I really like him, even if it's small, I'm willing, as long as I and the child in my belly can follow him justifiably, please, help me, ah......"

"Okay, I can help you get him to carry you into the door, but you have to be mentally prepared, because after entering the door, you can only be a concubine, and you don't even have to expect a flat wife or anything. Because I once asked Yu Feng to swear that after marrying me, he could only take a concubine but not a flat wife, and he had already agreed. Although you are a princess, sorry, the oath is the vow and the oath cannot be changed. Xi Cui felt as if there was a lump of qi in her chest, and she even felt very painful to breathe, but she still had a smile on her face, at least in terms of momentum, she couldn't lose to anyone!

"Bold! What are you talking about? How can a princess be a concubine? Originally, as long as our princess told the emperor about this matter, it would be easy for Nangong Yufeng to abolish you and marry you, but our princess didn't want to treat you like that, but you didn't know what to do! The maid brought the mat and yelled at Xi Cui as she helped the princess to stand up and lay out the mat.

Xi Cui was not angry, took a sip of tea, and said to the princess, "Princess, why are the people in your house so unruly?" If I enter the Nangong family, will I be the head of the house or not? ”

Princess Chaoyang closed her eyes, pondered for a while, drove the girl next to her out, and signaled to Xi Cui to take Lingxiang and the cook away. Xi Cui nodded to Lingxiang, Lingxiang was a little hesitant, but she still took the cook to the back.

After everyone walked away, Princess Chaoyang took out a crumpled piece of bloodstained paper from her sleeve and spread it out in front of Xi Cui, "This letter was written by Wang Shaomei to you, and it seems to have something to do with Wang Shaoju, which seems to be related to you...... The emperor's favorite concubine Ju was taken away before the emperor died, and she didn't know where to go, and this incident was in a uproar at the time! It stands to reason that there is only one woman, and my imperial brother may not care about it, but if this woman is still pregnant with the child of the former emperor in her belly...... And you already know this fact but still insist on taking that woman away, do you think you have other plans? I really want to know what else Yufeng can do to protect you after the imperial brother sees this letter! Oh...... No, it should be a choice between you and the Nangong family! Xi Cui, you are really amazing, you have lived for just over ten years, and you can witness the destruction of four full gates, and the disappearance of a powerful Wang family......"

Four full doors! Is there a Xi family, her family, the Lao family, and a Nangong family? After all, what she was worried about still happened, and she finally implicated the Nangong family......

"What do you want?" Xi Cui was holding on to keep his composure, but he was already in turmoil.

"It's very simple, you always know what it is. I know that you Xi Cui is a person who speaks, so here I only need a promise from you, as long as you promise me, I will give you this letter, and I will forget Wang Shaoju that person. How is it? Princess Chaoyang knew that Xi Cui had been shaken, and her heart became excited, and her speech inevitably accelerated.

Xi Cui looked at the letter in front of him, and the hands under the stone table had already been clenched into fists, but there was nowhere to vent.

Seeing that she was still hesitating, Princess Chaoyang decided to add another fire, "I know that the imperial brother gave you another letter before, it seems to be General Sun's masterpiece, right?" You've been holding it for a long time, and my brother is still waiting for news from you, and he seems to say that if you can't make a choice, he'll help. I'm afraid...... My royal brother's methods are sometimes so ruthless that even I am afraid! In this way, as long as you promise me, I will help you delay on the imperial brother's side. The most important thing is that once you promise me, there is no need to be embarrassed about this matter! You think that by then, you have already left the Nangong family, and without the burden of the identity of Princess Li, you will be yourself, and you will go to the Sun family as your own identity when the time comes. It is reasonable that you are the former maid of the Huai'an Hou Mansion to help your former master redress grievances, and no one can say irresponsible things, right? ”

Yes, she used to be a maid in the Hou Mansion of Huai'an, and in this life, she Xi Cui is destined to be unable to avoid this identity. She never felt that this identity made her lose face, but the Huai'an Hou Mansion was like a spell that had been put on her head, making her feel as if she could never escape, and she was too tired.

"Good...... I promise you, when I go back, I will ask Nangong Yufeng for a resignation, but you'd better remember your promise! Xi Cui stood up and leaned on the stone table, and the cold touch seemed to penetrate directly into her heart.

called Lingxiang out, and Xi Cui walked out of the courtyard first.

Princess Chaoyang behind her also slowly stood up, looked at the back of Xi Cui leaving, and said leisurely, "I know it's despicable to do this, but I can't help it!" There is only one Nangong Yufeng, and if I give it to you, I won't be able to live......"

returned to the palace, but Yufeng has not come back yet. Xi Cui directly asked the housekeeper to go to the barracks to find someone. Xi Cui, who had never seen such a person before, did not dare to slack off, and quickly found the fastest horse and went straight to the barracks.

When Nangong Yufeng came back, Xi Cui had already arranged the banquet, dressed up, and sat at the dining table waiting for him.

As soon as he saw Yu Feng coming in, Xi Cui quickly stood up, greeted him with a smile, and took his arm and pulled him to sit down, "It's been a long time since we've sat together and had a good meal, come, try my craft!" I made a lot of the dishes myself. ”

Although Yu Feng was furious in his heart, he was still quite happy. Looking at the table of wine and food, he pulled Xi Cui to sit down, and put some chopsticks in her bowl before putting a chopstick in his mouth. Xi Cui smiled and poured him a glass of wine, "Come, eat and drink at the same time, I won't drink it, you know how much I drink......"

Yu Feng smiled and nodded, and was drunk clean.

Xi Cui smiled and watched him eat and drink, but did not speak.

Lingxiang stood outside the room and listened to the movement inside, and couldn't help but cry secretly.

Seeing that Yu Feng had almost eaten, Xi Cui opened his mouth and asked, "Yu Feng, do you know what my real name is?" ”

"What?" Yu Feng stopped his chopsticks and looked at Xi Cui, "My real name?" ”

Xi Cui smiled and nodded, "Yes, Xi Cui was given a name by my wife in Huai'an Houfu, and I don't actually have the surname Xi!" You're already my father-in-law, and you don't even know this? ”

"I don't know! So what's your real name? In the future, I will ask all the people in the house to change it. Yu Feng took Xi Cui's hand, "I'm really sorry, I never knew that the maid had to change her name when she entered the mansion, and I didn't need the maid before." ”

Xi Cui pulled his hand out of his hand, pulled his palm open, and gently painted his name on it, "Feng Cuixiao, my name is Feng Cuixiao." You must remember ......"

Yu Feng's palm was a little itchy by her, and he couldn't help but clench his fist and press her hand here, "Feng Cuixiao, I remember!" It's a nice name, but your dad gave it up? ”

Xi Cui shook her head, "My mother took it, my father is illiterate at all, but my mother is a scholar." Xi Cui smiled sweetly, as if she remembered her former family, "I also want to live under my own name...... Therefore, I must pay off the debts of the Xi family, and after you watch me repay the innocence of the Xi family, I will live with my own name! ”

"What are you going to do?" As soon as Yu Feng heard her talk about the innocence of the Xi family, his heart couldn't help but tighten, and he took her hand and forced her to face herself, "Do you want to overturn the case for the Xi family?" Isn't it true that the emperor really gave you General Sun's blood letter? Why do you want to take it? If you took it, why didn't you tell me earlier? ”

Xi Cui broke away from his hand and looked at him, "How can I refuse something that he handed over with such an identity?" Tell you? What can you tell you? What are you going to do? He's the Emperor! This is my business, I have to thank him for giving me this opportunity so that I can completely get rid of the past, otherwise the name Xi Cui will only follow me for a lifetime and press me for a lifetime! ”

"What are you going to do?" Yu Feng took her hand again.

"Give me a letter of resignation!" Xi Cui closed her eyes and stopped looking at him, "I know that Reika and Huixiang have been with you all along, and I know the reason why you have not allowed them to come to see me. Princess Chaoyang came to me today, and she said she was pregnant with your child! I have already promised her to leave the Nangong family and finish the last thing that Xi Cui should do......"

Yu Feng let go of his hands, stood up suddenly, and reached out to overturn the dining table on the side, "After this incident, I thought about explaining it to you, but the damage has been done, no matter what the reason, I still hurt you after all!" It's true, and I don't want to force you to accept my mistake with such a rotten excuse as an explanation! But I don't know what to do, so I can only delay, I obviously want to protect you! He held his head and thrashed him hard.

Xi Cui hugged his waist, leaned on his chest, listened to his rapid heartbeat, and whispered, "I have always believed in you, so I don't blame you." You don't have to blame yourself, and you don't have to blame Princess Chaoyang, there's nothing wrong with loving someone desperately, she just loves you by any means. I'll go about my own business, and you stay and take care of the affairs between you, and we'll meet again. ”

"No, I won't let you go!" Yu Feng hugged Xi Cui hard, as if he wanted to rub her into his body.

Xi Cui patted him on the back, "Yufeng, calm down." I've already seen three Manmen with my own eyes, do you want me to bury your Nangong family Manmen with my own hands? ”

Yu Feng's hand finally let go, Xi Cui held back the tears rolling in her eyes, reached out to hook his neck, stood on tiptoe, and raised her head to print his lips. When the lips and teeth were handed over, tears slipped down, salty and astringent, I don't know if it was hers or Yufeng's...... (To be continued.) )
