Chapter 258

Cai Wei sighed in her heart, got up and walked in front of Xingzi, squatted down, and said softly: "Xingzi, I want to go back to my husband's side, it has nothing to do with his status and power, I want to be with him, just because I like him, and he likes me." โ€

"Because you like it?" Xingzi muttered, "So, Zhou Jun...... Like me? โ€

Cai Wei was stunned for a moment, and asked her rhetorically, "What about Xingzi?" โ€

Xingzi blinked a little blankly, "I...... I don't know, I just know that I like Zhou Jun to be by my side and tell me those beautiful stories. Zhou Jun's story, like a magical feather coat, can take me out of this cage of stagnant life, let me know the joys, sorrows, and various states of life, so that I no longer feel like a walking corpse, but a real ...... In alive. โ€

She had no father before she was born, and her mother died when she was three years old, for fear of being seen her true gender, she was locked up in the deep palace by her grandfather, Tokugawa Shogun, since she was a child, and she was not even allowed to go out to take a breath when she went out in the spring. It is precisely because her life is so monotonous and lifeless that she likes to listen to stories like almost addiction, because only in those stories can she get a glimpse of other aspects of the world and appreciate a different kind of life.

She has heard many love stories in the story, but she has never experienced what it is like to like someone or what it is like to be liked.

Looking at the woman of the same age as her in front of her, Cai Wei suddenly felt pity, although she was the emperor, she was even more unfree than the daughters of ordinary people.

Cai Wei thought about it, raised her hand to remove the โ–กโ–ก on her face, and said with a slight smile: "Miss Xingzi, the first time we met, I am fortunate to see Jun Yan!" โ€

Xingzi's round eyes widened, and she raised her hand to cover her gaping mouth, looking at the face behind the mask in shock.

These two women of the same age, after three months of facing each other, went to the curtain for the first time, and the other took off their masks to see each other's true faces.

It took a long time for Xingzi to come back to his senses, looked at the โ–กโ–ก in Cai Wei's hand, and then looked at her picturesque jade face, and stammered: "It turns out ...... It turns out that this is Zhou Jun's real appearance? Unexpectedly, in the past three months, Zhou Jun showed me a mask! โ€

She thought that it would be extremely shocking to know that Zhou Jun was a daughter, but after people peeled off a layer of skin, she turned out to be a special beauty who was a hundred times more beautiful than her.

Looking at the delicate face made of jade, Xingzi couldn't help but reach out and want to touch it, "You...... It's so beautiful, no wonder you have to wear a mask, it's not like a real person, it's like a jade man......"

Cai Wei didn't want to be touched by her, and she didn't want to hurt her, so she also stretched out her hand to hold her hand, and said gently: "Since the girl is honest with her tonight, Cai Wei also wants to say goodbye to the girl in my truest form before parting." โ€

Xingzi looked down at the two green jade hands held together, both of them were extremely white-skinned, and the two snow-white little hands were clasped together, like ice and snow blending.

"Yes, when the sun rises tomorrow, that is, when Zhou Jun leaves me......"

She suddenly grabbed Cai Wei's hand with her backhand, looked up at her slightly, and said, "Since I can't keep Zhou Jun, I can only use this whole night to bid farewell to Zhou Jun." โ€

"Zhou Jun, can I sleep with you tonight?"

In fact, the so-called sleeping together is nothing more than moving another set of bedding, and the two of them lie side by side on a Japanese-style mattress, with some distance in between.

Cai Wei was already a little sleepy, and she wanted to sleep well when she lay down, and she had to hurry tomorrow! But Xingzi was not tired of asking her questions.

"Zhou Jun, how did you pass on the news so that the general knew your identity as the princess, I obviously looked at you and Miss Ma Li so strictly."

A smile appeared on Cai Wei's lips, "Naturally, I was bothered by His Majesty the Emperor to help me carry out the message." โ€

"What? It's me? Xingzi suddenly rolled over and sat up, "How could I-, what method did you use to get me to deliver the news for you?" โ€

"Didn't I help you change a few words of the waka that His Majesty made?"

When Qiu Wu was discovered, the last thing Cai Wei said to him before leaving the palace was: "Pay attention to the emperor's waka." โ€

It turned out that in order to encourage His Majesty the Emperor to be obsessed with waka, the Tokugawa shogun would order someone to sing it every time the emperor composed a waka song, and Caiwei took advantage of this to hide the secret words that had been agreed between her and Qiu Wu in the waka that the emperor had revised, so as to spread the news and ordered Qiu Wu to tell Tokugawa General about her identity.

She also knew that this was not the best policy, and if there was a disturbance, she was afraid that there would be some trouble in the future, but since she was in a hurry to go back, she couldn't think of a better way for a while. If it weren't for the fact that she had a fatal matter right now that couldn't be delayed, she wouldn't be afraid to live here for a while longer, even if she lived for a year and a half in one go, it didn't matter, just so that Qin Fei could taste the taste of sending people away in a day and three autumns.

After Xingzi listened to Cai Wei's explanation, she was not annoyed, but admired her intelligence, and tried her best to get Cai Wei to say a few more words to her.

If it was usual, Cai Wei wouldn't mind sleeping a few hours less to say goodbye to her, but now she is not as sleepy as before, and she is really sleepy and can't support it, so she said to Xingzi: "I'm really sleepy, I have to hurry tomorrow, and I want to go to bed early." โ€

Xingzi bit her lip, moved towards her, and said softly, "Zhou Jun, I'm ...... I can't sleep, it's okay for you to hold me to sleep, since my mother died, no one has hugged me again......"

Cai Wei heard her pitiful, and forced her eyelids to look at her, only to see Xingzi's eyes shining in the dark, looking at herself like a child, which made Cai Wei feel a maternal feeling in her heart.

She subconsciously stroked her lower abdomen and said softly, "Come here!" โ€

Xingzi immediately burrowed into her arms like a small beast, rubbed her arms several times, and then let out a satisfied sigh: "Can I be held again...... That's great! โ€

She finally stopped talking, and Zhou Jun, who hugged her tightly, fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Cai Wei couldn't resist Xingzi's repeated requests, so she had to ask her to help her comb her hair herself. She thought about it for a while, and also made a request to Xingzi, "Xingzi, can you promise me one thing?" โ€

As soon as he heard that Zhou Jun actually had something to ask her, Xingzi said excitedly: "Zhou Jun, please speak!" โ€

"I'd like to ask Xingzi to hide something for me. Princess Linchuan had only arrived in Fuso a month earlier and stayed in the Emperor's Imperial Palace, and the two storytellers summoned by His Majesty the Emperor three months earlier were not the people of Daqin, but the men of Fuso, and they have been kept in the Imperial Palace by the Emperor since then. โ€

Xingzi was puzzled: "Why did Zhou Jun erase your previous two months in Fusang? โ€

Cai Wei rubbed her forehead and said a little tiredly: "Because if I don't do this, I'm afraid I will have some trouble when I go back." Xingzi, would you like to see me get into trouble? โ€

Xingzi shook his head, nodded solemnly, and said, "I promised Zhou Jun that it is, just in return, can you ask Zhou Jun to help me comb my hair?" โ€

This Cai Wei didn't dare to agree to her, because the two of them combed each other's hair or something, that was her and Qin Fei's daily routine, and she was used to doing things with a man and suddenly wanted to do it with a woman, she inevitably felt a little weird, and even a little inexplicable weakness.

"The time has come, I'm afraid it's too late, but I'll repay Xingzi in another way."

Cai Wei got up and held her hand and said, "I know that His Majesty the Emperor is not satisfied with your current life, if you want to change it, or you will find a way to take the power in the hands of men into your own hands, control your own destiny, and get out of this cage that binds you." โ€

Xingzi shook his head and said: "It's impossible to do, I'm just a woman, where can I have the strength to resist men, all I can do is continue to let people tell me stories." But after listening to the stories told by Zhou Jun, I'm afraid I won't be able to listen to other people's stories anymore! โ€

"It's a pity, the story of the disciple told by Zhou Jun can't hear the ending!"

When Cai Wei heard this, she was afraid that this girl would cut off someone's ears if she was dissatisfied with a story like before, and hurriedly said: "If you can't break free from the cage trapped in you, then you can change yourself." Instead of relying on someone to tell you a story, why not make yourself a storyteller. โ€

She picked up a pen from the bookcase and handed it to Xingzi.

"We can't change reality, but we can create a new world. I'm not the feather coat that can take you flying, this pen is, you can use this pen to write your own story, or you can continue the story I didn't finish telling you. โ€

"If you want to, you can use this pen to change your entire life after that!"

At this time, Zhou Caiwei would not have thought that because of her parting words, Emperor Guangming's life would be completely changed in the future.

Three years later, a novel of millions of words appeared in Fuso Kingdom, telling the story of a strange man who was given the surname Hikari because of his beauty and many women, hence the name "The Tale of Hikari". It is said that as soon as this book came out, Kyoto paper was expensive, and everyone rushed to copy it, and it was simply red and purple.

When a few years later, when Zhou Caiwei, who was far away in Chang'an, read the most popular novel in Fusang, "The Story of the Light Family", she only read one page, and the queen of heaven almost didn't squirt out all the tea she had just drunk in her mouth.

She never imagined that Sun Youxiang, a lewd man who was extremely sarcastic and sarcastic in her mouth, would be beautified into a peerless beauty by the girl Xingzi, but the abuse has not changed.

However, what she didn't expect was that this "The Tale of the Light Family" written by Mrs. Ziyi has been passed down from generation to generation, and thousands of years later, it is known as a literary classic of Fusang National Treasure, a masterpiece and an immortal masterpiece!
