Chapter 18: Goodbye

The answer given by Feng Zhige undoubtedly surprised the Queen Mother and Grandma Sun.

The Queen Mother originally wanted to use a reason to rectify Feng Zhige, so that Mu Qingwan could see what would happen to her daughter if she didn't comply, but unexpectedly, Feng Zhige didn't play his cards at all and gave such an answer.

Feng Zhige's calm eyes were so clear that they seemed to be able to illuminate the filth of the world, touching that kind of gaze, the Queen Mother felt a little familiar inexplicably, but more of a weak heart, subconsciously turned her head, but found that this seemed to be a sign of weakness, and looked at Feng Zhige again.

Feng Zhige didn't pay attention to the Queen Mother's expression, she turned her head to look at Mu Qingwan, and said seriously: "Mother, this wine is given by the Queen Mother, the so-called thunder and rain and dew are all Jun's grace, the Queen Mother gave wine, of course the mother should drink it." ”

Mu Qingwan was slightly stunned, then a smile appeared on his face, and he reached out and held the jade cup in front of him.

For Feng Zhige, Mu Qingwan has always believed in it.

Since she said she could drink it, she would definitely be able to drink it.

So, Mu Qingwan picked up the glass of wine and slowly brought it to his lips.

Seeing that the wine was about to be drunk by Mu Qingwan, Feng Zhige spoke out again.

"Mother, you are just too careful, this is Cining Palace, does anyone dare to poison the wine?" It looked like a coquettish words, but it made the hearts of the Queen Mother and Mama Sun skip a beat, and they heard Feng Zhige continue, "Besides, the second sister already looks seven points similar to the eldest princess of Qingping, a few days ago, so many ladies in Jingzhong saw the second sister travel with her own eyes with a woman who looks like the eldest princess of Qingping who died early, and now the mother has only sent the disobedient concubine to Ciyun Nunnery, if the mother has an accident in Cining Palace immediately after, maybe there will be any rumors in Beijing......"

"Perhaps, everyone will really think that the person who was sent to Ciyun Nunnery was the eldest princess of Qingping herself. This is the queen mother's weak heart, and she wants to be angry with the eldest princess of Qingping, so she will attack her mother. ”

"Since our Hou Mansion entered Beijing, it seems that the topic of the eldest princess of Qingping has never really subsided, and I don't know what the emperor will think when he learns that someone has ruined the reputation of the royal family so much."

Obviously said these shocking words, but Feng Zhige's expression was calm.

The Queen Mother only felt that her forehead was suddenly jumping. God knows how much she wants Mu Qingwan to die. But Feng Zhige's words hit her heart.

When she ordered Zhao Youjun to be sent to Ciyun Nunnery that day, Zhao Tiannan had already warned her that Ruo Mu Qingwan really died in Cining Palace at this juncture. I'm afraid that the capital will really be able to spread the wind and rain all over the city.

When the time comes, how will her emperor's son, who has completely disobeyed her, react?

Thinking of this, the Queen Mother pursed her thin lips. Even if you are unwilling, even if you are not willing to do it again. Mu Qingwan would swallow the intestinal poison into her stomach, and she had to stop it.

"Wait!" The Queen Mother said with a blushing face, "It's because the mourning family is not thoughtful, although it is already spring." But in the end, there are still some cold weather, and it is not suitable for drinking, so let's give Mrs. Weiyuan Hou a cup of hot tea. ”

Mu Qingwan breathed a sigh of relief.

Put the glasses back into that tray. It wasn't until the palace maid retreated that she realized that her back was already drenched with sweat.

With such a frightening episode. The rest of the time is dull and boring.

The Queen Mother's two purposes of summoning Mu Qingwan into the palace have only been achieved now, and she is obviously unwilling, but she can't do anything more, so she naturally has no heart to look at the faces of Mu Qingwan and Feng Zhige.

When the hot tea was put on the table again in front of Mu Qingwan, the Queen Mother waved her hand a little cowardly, signaling Mu Qingwan to retire, but said that Feng Mingwu could get her eyes and wanted to leave Feng Mingwu in the palace for a few days.

It is not uncommon for the nobles in the palace to leave their daughters to live in the palace, but there has never been a concubine like Feng Mingwu who has won the blue eyes of the nobles.

Mu Qingwan naturally didn't blush the Queen Mother's liking for Feng Mingwu, and when she heard the words and saluted, she wanted to lead Feng Zhige out of the palace.

Unexpectedly, before they could stand up, they heard a eunuch singing sharply: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

Mu Qingwan and the two naturally couldn't leave just yet, and before they stood up, they bowed to the ground again and bowed.

Zhao Tiannan walked all the way in a hurry, looking very hurried, and he did not return to the calmness when he usually dealt with court affairs.

Entering Cining Palace, Zhao Tiannan's grandmother swept over the faces of the Queen Mother and Grandma Sun, and paused slightly when she saw Feng Mingwu, who looked quite similar to Zhao Youjun, but then looked at Mu Qingwan and Feng Zhige, who fell to the ground.

Zhao Tiannan came to Cining Palace in such a hurry because he received the news that the Queen Mother wanted to poison Mrs. Weiyuanhou.

In all fairness, even if there was such a past between Zhao Youjun and the Marquis of Weiyuan's Mansion back then, Zhao Tiannan didn't know who Mrs. Weiyuanhou was, but he did have some apologies for the Marquis of Weiyuan's Mansion in his heart, after all, the old Marquis Weiyuan had made countless contributions to the establishment of the Great Wu Dynasty, and the royal approach back then was really not authentic.

Second, Zhao Tiannan was also very angry about the Queen Mother's approach.

Zhao Youjun has already been sent to Ciyun Nunnery, in Zhao Tiannan's opinion, this incident that started in 20 years should end here, and the Empress Dowager will have another incident at this time.

If Mrs. Weiyuan Marquis really had an accident in Cining Palace, how will the royal family block the mouths of the people in the world this time?

After the previous rumors, and Zhao Youjun was seen by so many people in broad daylight, the events of that year, people with a heart can come to the correct conclusion with just a little speculation.

In the previous qiē, Zhao Tiannan had already ended by sending Zhao Youjun to Ciyun Nunnery, and many clans in the capital could be regarded as approving this way of dealing with it.

But if after this, Mu Qingwan still has an accident in Cining Palace, I am afraid that even the good things that Zhao Youjun did twenty years ago will break out together.

The eldest princess of the royal family, not to mention the husband of a woman, also tried her best to enter the Hou Mansion as a concubine, so she forced the Feng family to move to Huzhou.

If it's just like this, it's nothing, although the eldest princess is a concubine, it is unpleasant to say, but in the end it is the royal face that is lost, and others will naturally not feel the pain for the royal family.

But the eldest princess of Qingping was obviously committed to being a concubine, but she regarded herself as Mrs. Weiyuan Hou in Huzhou, and forced the main room to live in seclusion for nearly 20 years, which made the famous family of the Dawu Dynasty a little unacceptable.

If the royal princess has a crush on someone's man. If they are all snatched in the same way, won't the most important bond between these generations of intermarried families have lost the slightest reliability?

In the eyes of these people, the eldest princess of Qingping is so domineering, just sending her to Ciyun Nunnery is already considered the emperor's soft-heartedness, if it is rumored at this time that the queen mother will not spare the female dependents of the meritorious family and want to put her to death, how should the people of the world view the royal family?

The Dawu Dynasty was founded for 27 years. Although now it is considered to be on a firm footing. But if these famous families are separated from the royal family because of this, and they are said to be strict, maybe they will be shaken to the foundation of the country.

For Zhao Tiannan. Naturally, this is more than worth the loss.

Therefore, as soon as he got the news, Zhao Tiannan rushed to Cining Palace non-stop.

Fortunately, although the atmosphere in Cining Palace is a little weird. But nothing major happened.

Zhao Tiannan's gaze stopped at Mu Qingwan and Feng Zhige, who were bowing their heads.

Although he came to Cining Palace to ensure Mu Qingwan's safety, it can be compared. Mu Qingwan was wearing Feng Zhige in green clothes on his side, which undoubtedly attracted more attention from him.

The bright yellow robe and black soap boots paused at Feng Zhige's side, and from Zhao Tiannan's angle, only Feng Zhige's small and white chin could be seen. But the familiar cyan still made him subconsciously stop his gaze.

How long has it been since he has seen anyone wearing clothes of this color?

Since the death of Han Su back then. He ordered all the green clothes in the palace to be burned, and over time. In the eyes of the new palace concubines and palace people, the emperor does not like Tsing Yi, so naturally no one will commit his taboo again.

To this day, that blue color seems to only exist in the memories of the past......

After a long time, Zhao Tiannan came back to his senses from his memories and realized his gaffe, he coughed lightly, which made Mu Qingwan's mother and daughter retreat.

But in the end, the corner of his eye still chased the cyan out for a moment.

The girl's back is straight, and although her body is a little thin, she has a sense of arrogance in her actions.

This eldest girl of the Feng family has obviously learned the rules very well, and there is only the slightest swaying of the cyan dress when she walks, which really explains what is called lotus step light movement.

Although I haven't seen the front, I always subconsciously know that this must be a gentle and dignified lady.

Back then, she walked the same way......

His thoughts were empty for a while, but he was quickly pulled back by Zhao Tiannan.

He couldn't help but shake his head, what's wrong with today, he can't help but think of the past when he sees anything.

Then, Zhao Tiannan remembered the purpose of his visit, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.

He looked at the Queen Mother, and the coldness in his eyes made the Queen Mother shrink in fear, and then the gaze slowly stood aside, with awe and excitement flashing alternately in her eyes, and the face of Mama Sun who was eager to make a hole in it swept over her face one by one.

After a long time, Zhao Tiannan didn't open his mouth until the three of them were a little frightened.

"Since the Queen Mother is old and in good spirits, she might as well recuperate in Cining Palace in the future." Zhao Tiannan was almost faceless to say this, obviously speaking at a slow pace, and there was no sternness in his voice, but the words he said made the Queen Mother feel a chill in this warm spring, "If you are bored, you can also summon the Duchess of Anguo, or the second girl of the Feng family into the palace to accompany you." ”

When mentioning the "second girl of the Feng family", Zhao Tiannan's eyes turned to Feng Mingwu, and the coldness in his eyes suddenly increased because of the face that was very similar to Zhao Youjun.

Feng Mingwu didn't know what Zhao Tiannan's words meant to the Queen Mother, but being looked at by Zhao Tiannan like this, she only felt that she was not a big living person at all, but just a piece of meat on the chopping board.

If Feng Mingwu was still excited when she saw this emperor's uncle before, then at this time, she wished that she had never seen Zhao Tiannan.

The emperor's uncle is so terrible, she still needs to stay with the queen mother's grandmother.

Fortunately, Zhao Tiannan didn't plan to stay in Cining Palace for a long time, so he put his words down and turned around and strode away.

In Cining Palace, Feng Mingwu secretly glad to pat his chest lightly, but the Queen Mother and Mama Sun were paralyzed like mourners.

What does the emperor mean that the queen mother will be placed under house arrest in this Cining Palace from now on?

……

Mu Qingwan and Feng Zhige naturally didn't know about the conversation in Cining Palace after they left, but it wasn't until the moment they actually stepped out of the palace gate that the two looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

Mu Qingwan really experienced a life and death horror. Although she had never served that glass of wine at that time, if it weren't for Feng Zhige's words, who was sure that the Queen Mother would have asked someone to pour that wine on her?

And Feng Zhige's tone of relaxation, the reason is different from Mu Qingwan.

Since waking up in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, in the period of more than six years and almost seven years, Feng Zhige has seen many old people.

Even when she first met Zhao Youjun, the person who directly led her death, she was able to maintain complete calm.

Today, I saw Zhao Tiannan again in the palace after more than 20 years. Feng Zhige also remained calm. Even, she didn't even glance at Zhao Tiannan from the corner of her eye.

Once again, she and Zhao Tiannan naturally had no so-called love and hate before. She would settle the accounts with him one by one, because this was what he owed her.

But, after all, they had known each other, Feng Zhige was not sure. If you look at Zhao Tiannan, will Zhao Tiannan find any clues.

There was such a long delay in the palace. It was already afternoon when Mu Qingwan and Feng Zhige returned to the Hou Mansion.

At the gate of the Hou Mansion, Feng Mingxiang was walking back and forth with an anxious face, obviously waiting for Mu Qingwan and his party to enter the palace.

Not only Feng Mingxiang, but even Feng Lin who went to Huangjue Temple to practice. I didn't know where to get the news and rushed back.

There is also the Mu family, who learned about the Queen Mother's summons from the people sent by Mama Lin, for fear that something would happen. Someone was also sent to hear the news.

Brother Mu Bingheng was angry this time.

Recently, they naturally knew about the news in the capital, and Zhao Youjun was sent to Ciyun Nunnery. They are some of the most happy people.

But how long has it been since this incident, and the Queen Mother was so impatient to summon Mu Qingwan's mother and daughter into the palace, making it clear that she was uneasy and wanted to be angry for Zhao Youjun.

They didn't know what happened back then, but now if the royal family still wants to bully each other with imperial power like they did twenty years ago, even if their brother's official position is not high, even if they give up their lives, they must seek justice for their sister.

Therefore, as soon as they received the news from Mama Lin, the Mu family immediately sent someone to the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, so that they could get the news as soon as possible and deal with it.

Seeing Mu Qingwan and Feng Zhige returning safely, both the father and son of the Feng family and the people from the Mu family couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although the Mu family has decided that if something happens, they will definitely seek justice for Mu Qingwan, but that is the worst plan made, compared to it, of course, it is the best for Mu Qingwan to return safely.

When Mu Qingwan saw the welcoming team at the gate of the Hou Mansion, he was stunned at first, and when he understood the reason, he sent the people of the Mu family back to report the news.

Then he thanked Feng Mingxiang again, and then turned to Feng Lin with a complicated expression.

Feng Lin was wearing a plain robe, with a string of plump and round Buddha beads hanging on his wrist, and his black hair was tied on the top of his head with a wooden hairpin.

During this period of cultivation, Feng Lin looked much less clear than before, but his spirit was obviously better.

Seeing Mu Qingwan looking at him, a little eagerness flashed in Feng Lin's eyes, but then it returned to gloom.

The Qing cultivation in the Huangjue Temple did not let Feng Lin see through the red dust and quit love and hatred from then on, during this time he has been meditating on the past, and he has also broken apart what happened at the beginning one by one to take a closer look, and he hated himself more and more why he was such a bastard in the first place.

If he could, Feng Lin would rather trade his own qiē in exchange for those things that never happened.

However, even if he is with the Buddha every day, he knows that there is no way to change what has passed.

Over the years, his inaction has completely broken Ah Wan's heart, since Ah Wan doesn't want to think about him anymore, then he can only look at her from afar, I just hope that the gods and Buddhas have spirits, and his prayers day and night can really be exchanged for a smooth life for his wife and daughter in the future.

Feng Lin lowered his eyes, said "cherish" to Mu Qingwan, and turned to leave.

Behind him, Mu Qingwan looked at his distant back, wanting to say something, but in the end it only turned into a sigh.

On the other side, Feng Mingxiang pulled Feng Zhige aside to take a closer look.

"Sister, are you alright?" Feng Mingxiang said as he looked at Feng Zhige nervously.

Feng Zhige couldn't help laughing, and simply turned around, so that Feng Mingxiang knew that she really didn't have anything.

Feng Mingxiang relieved his heart at this time, and then frowned again, and asked, "Sister, what about the second sister?" Didn't she enter the palace with you, why didn't she come back with you? ”

Compared with Fang Cai's nervousness and concern for Feng Zhige, when Feng Mingxiang mentioned Feng Mingwu, he was worried, but it was very limited.

It's really no wonder that he is.

Although Feng Mingxiang and Feng Mingwu are real brothers and sisters, but over the years, Feng Mingwu has long been completely crooked under Zhao Youjun's teaching, and her usual behavior, even if she is a brother, it is unacceptable.

Feng Mingxiang wouldn't think that Mu Qingwan and Feng Zhige deliberately left Feng Mingwu, he was just worried about whether Feng Mingwu had caused some trouble in the palace again.

After all, the excitement on Feng Mingwu's face before entering the palace could be seen by anyone with long eyes.

Hearing Feng Mingxiang mention Feng Mingwu, Feng Zhige raised his eyebrows, "Second sister, she is very lucky to be in the eyes of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother specially left her in the palace for a few more days, brother can rest assured." ”

As soon as he heard this, Feng Mingxiang's expression immediately faded a little.

It seems that the second sister still didn't listen to what he said, and still blindly wanted to climb the royal family.

Feng Mingxiang sighed secretly.

In the past, he also loved Feng Mingwu's sister very much, but when he saw Feng Zhige, he used more care for Feng Zhige, plus Feng Mingwu was raised by Zhao Youjun since he was a child and taught, his temperament became worse and worse, and the brother and sister became more and more alienated.

Feng Mingxiang knew that his second sister would not listen to his words now, and since this was the case, it was up to her, I only hope that she will not regret her choice in the future...... (To be continued.) )>
