Late at night, post house.

Xu Yi, dressed in a white robe, stood under the moonlight with his hands behind his back, his expression was a little unfathomable.

Liu Baimei walked over and said in a low voice, "Sir, what are you looking at?" ”

Xu Yi turned around and smiled: "I'm looking at the night of this Xin country." ”

"What does the gentleman see?"

"The night of Xin State seems to be more cordial than that of Wei State."

Liu Baimei's eyes sank: "Mr. listens to the accent, not like a person from the north." ”

Xu Yishen glanced at him, smiled and said, "You can hear it, I am from Xinguo." ”

"Sir?" Liu Baimei was shocked.

"You must be wondering, I am from the Xin State, why would I help the Wei State?"

Liu Baimei nodded: "Exactly." ”

Xu Yi smiled faintly, and his smile was desolate: "That's because I'm a person who has died once." ”

There was a "snap" sound, like the sound of a dead branch breaking.

"Who?"

Liu Baimei changed color, and her figure had flown out.

Zhengyang, who was hidden in the shadows, was startled, this person was so fast, before she could think about it, the palm wind had arrived, and in desperation, she stretched out her palm and confronted the comer.

With a bang, the two of them each took half a step back, and after a moment they were entangled in one place again.

"Catch the assassin!"

The sound of fighting was heard, and the guards continued to arrive.

Zhengyang looks bad, thirty-six plans, go up. In a hurry, an empty door was exposed in front of her, and she just wanted to remedy it, but the other party came to attack the west.

A delicate face was revealed, and Xu Yi was surprised and shouted: "Stop, don't hurt her." ”

Zhengyang glanced at him faintly. When people are unprepared, they perform light skills and escape into the night.

Liu Baimei was puzzled, "Sir, who is this person and why did you let her go?" ”

Xu Yi's face was sad, he paused for a few seconds, and then threw his sleeves away.

"An old man."

……

In the Gao Xiang's mansion, Xia stared at the window, waiting for the movement outside. Zhengyang has been gone for a long time. Never came back. Could something happen.

Just then, the window opened, and a dark figure jumped in.

"Ma'am."

Xia Shi hurriedly caught up, took her hand and said, "I'm scared to death." I thought something was wrong? ”

"Ma'am."

Zhengyang pulled down the veil. Swallowing his saliva, he said, "I inquired clearly." It's him, it's him. ”

Xia Shi clutched his pounding chest, "Really...... It's true...... It's ......"

"That's right. I can't be mistaken. He said he was a dead man. ”

Xia retreated again and again, and sat on the bed with his buttocks, his face as white as snow. He's still alive, how can he still be alive, isn't he already ......

"Madam, he is the envoy of Wei. And I found that the people of Wei had a lot of respect for him. ”

"So ......"

Xia slammed to his feet and paced back and forth in the room.

"Zhengyang, I want to see him, I'm going to beg him."

"Ma'am, what if this ......"

Xia didn't have time to think about it, and said with red eyes: "The King of Chu is already discussing the days with the Queen Mother. Fast is a few days, slow is a few months, Zhengyang, I don't care so much, as long as I can save my child, I am willing to do anything. ”

Zhengyang gritted his teeth and said, "Madam, I'll go and explore again to see what he means." It's just ...... over there."

Xia Shi shed tears and answered the question: "He deceived me so hard......"

……

Hou Ye died, and the Hou Mansion was in mourning.

The Queen Mother issued an order to posthumously crown the Marquis of Xiaoyao as a first-class Xiaoyao Duke, hereditary for three generations.

With such an absurd will, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were in an uproar, and they wrote to the emperor one after another, saying that since the founding of the Xin Kingdom, there has never been such a precedent, which is too inconsistent with the rules of the ancestors. Empress Dowager Li endured her grief and left all the pieces in the middle.

Gao Zecheng saw that the Queen Mother was acting now, becoming more and more arbitrary, and gradually became dissatisfied.

Just two days after Hou Ye's death, Empress Dowager Li fell ill under internal and external pressure.

Empress Gao stepped forward, took over the affairs of the six palaces, and served in front of the Queen Mother all day and night.

When Zhao Jingqi saw it, she was disgusted, and she didn't like this woman who acted in a straightforward way even more.

He didn't like the government, but the Queen Mother was so tough and grounded Lin Nan, which prompted him to be tired and only put his mind on Lin Nan.

The ban is the foot of the concubine, if the emperor really wants to see it, no one dares to stop it. And the Queen Mother knew that she was ashamed, so she opened her eyes and closed her eyes.

At this time, Lin Nan was suffering from morning sickness, vomiting whatever he ate, and he was too busy to take care of himself. Coupled with her concern for Linxi, in just a few days, the whole person lost weight.

When Zhao Jingqi saw her, she was even more reluctant to leave her half a step, so she had to comfort her.

……

"My wife wants to see you." Zhengyang looked at the man in front of him, and his words were a little bitter.

The corners of Xu Yi's eyes raised slightly, and he sneered: "A dead person, what can be seen." ”

Zhengyang was speechless, gritted his teeth and said: "Dead people will not appear in front of people." ”

Xu Yi gently plucked a string and said lightly: "Then let's see, it's time to settle the old account." ”

"You ......" Zhengyang held his stomach and didn't know how to say.

At this time, the king of Wei and Chu wrote a letter to welcome the princess back to his house in a month.

Empress Dowager Li was grief-stricken because of the death of the Marquis of Xiaoyao, and she held the chapter for three days before she could be released.

On the second day when the two countries set the date, Xia was dressed in plain clothes and accompanied by Zhengyang in a carriage.

The carriage went round and round all the way north, and after an hour, it stopped in front of a house.

In the small house of Sanjin, there is a back garden, and the garden is full of peach blossoms, but now the flowering period has been missed, and only bald branches remain.

As soon as Xia entered this garden, he felt familiar, and before he had taken two steps, the sound of the piano came out. The sound of the piano was like crying, and the Xia family's soul was scattered, and he couldn't step out anymore.

This is her favorite song "Plum Blossom Three Alleys".

"Madam......" Zhengyang whispered.

Xia Shi was stunned, and his expression was intoxicated. Zhengyang helped her and went away step by step.

Under the plane tree, a middle-aged man in a white robe closed his eyes and stroked the piano with both hands. The expression is flat and calm, and there is no superfluous expression.

At the end of the song, Xia looked at the man in front of him with tears streaming down his face, his expression was a little trance.

Xu Yi opened his eyes, his eyes were like a sword, and his voice was faint: "You are here." ”

Xia Shi looked at him, moving forward step by step, each step was extremely heavy: "Zeming, it's really you, are you still alive?" ”

The person who came was the old man of Gaofu. Gao Zecheng's eldest brother Gao Zeming.

The corners of his mouth hooked. Yanlu said sarcastically: "I haven't seen you for twenty years, Mrs. Gao is okay." ”

Mrs. Gao?

Xia Shi was taken aback, in the past, he only called her Xiaorou, and she lowered her eyes silently. Covering a sore spot in his eyes.

Gao Zeming took the opportunity to look.

This face had haunted him for twenty years. Still smooth and fair. There wasn't even a trace of wrinkles, and time seemed to stop on this face.

And her expression of silent eyes is the same as back then. Gao Zeming sighed slightly.

"Mrs. Gao asked to see her. I don't know what it is? ”

Xia Shi raised his head and his eyes were shining: "I want to ask you for one thing." ”

Gao Zeming sneered, "What's the matter?" ”

Xia Shi heard the coldness in his words, but still said: "Can you change people and relatives?" ”

Gao Zeming smiled even more, and the corner of his eyes swept over Zhengyang, who was standing on the side, and said lightly: "No." ”

Xia Shi didn't expect it, he refused his request without thinking about it, gritted his teeth and said, "Zeming, I didn't know you were still alive." ”

Gao Zeming was angry in his heart, and his eyes showed disdain: "Of course, a person like you who does not choose his hand for the sake of the purpose and is water-based will naturally not know that I am still alive." ”

The vicious language made Xia's face change.

She smiled sadly and sighed faintly, but still cheekily said, "Can you tell me why it has to be Linsy?" ”

Gao Zeming looked at her deeply.

……

In the spring of that year, he was dressed in fresh clothes and went hunting in the mountains and forests with his friends.

When he returned with a full load, he went to a house on the side of the road thirsty to ask for water.

When the door opened, there was a young woman dressed in coarse cloth, and when the woman looked up, her heart was beating like a pendulum, and she was shocked. It was a face that was unforgettable.

He looked around the house, it was simple and clean, and he was polite between questions and answers.

A master and a servant are in the wilderness and mountains, lonely and helpless. He was secretly watching.

After returning home, I couldn't sleep all night, and when I closed my eyes, it was the woman's face, and I was in my heart from then on.

Excuses come to the door again and again, send rice and grain, send poems and paintings, he is affectionate, and she is extremely shy.

That summer, the song "Plum Blossom Three Alleys" after the rain finally made her unguard and fell in love.

She is an orphan girl, and he is the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and his very different identities make him embarrassed in every way.

Rao is that she is proficient in piano, chess, and books, and her complexion is overwhelming, and it is difficult to resist the requirements of Gaomen to marry a wife. And at this time, he has long been in love, and he just wants to raise eyebrows with her.

At this time, the family had already kissed him, and he couldn't bear her as a concubine, so he resisted and dragged her in every way.

When his father learned that he was in love with an orphan girl, he was furious and ordered him to be grounded for a month to reflect on it.

The grounding in January, lovesickness, he lived like a year. Finally looking forward to the lifting of the ban, he couldn't wait to find her, but found that she was being entangled, and in anger, he drew his sword and stabbed the other party to death.

Who knows, the deceased is quite powerful and asks for his life. His father and brother ran around for him and finally sentenced him to exile.

Before her exile, he entrusted her to his younger brother Gao Zecheng, begging him to take care of her woman for the sake of his brother.

During the exile, the bandits were rampant and the escort was stabbed to death, and he took the opportunity to escape and rushed back to find her, wanting to live in seclusion with her.

Nine deaths and a lifetime to rush back, who knows...... What was waiting for him was the scene where she and Gao Zeming hugged each other.

At that moment, he understood why his dignified young master was sentenced to a heavy sentence, it turned out that everything was his brother's handiwork.

He hates, hates his brother stabbed in the back; He hates, hates women, hates water, and hates flowers.

He was penniless, had a home, mixed in with beggars, begged on the street, and became a dignified son.

What's even worse is that at this time, there was news that Gao Zecheng accepted her as a concubine, and under the combination of poverty, he was so sick that he couldn't move.

He was reluctant to take her as a concubine, and just wanted to be a dragon and a phoenix; And she was willing to be Gao Zecheng's concubine, for the sake of glory.

This disease was so sick that he was dying, and even the rats gnawed on him, but he somehow survived.

He smiled and thought, God didn't accept him, it must be to give him a chance to take revenge.

Since then, there is no high or clear in the world, only promise.

Everything is God's will.

……

Gao Zecheng thought of the suffering he suffered back then, and said expressionlessly: "I'm sorry, I have nothing to say." ”

Rao is Xia is resolute, and he can't help but cry sadly when he sees his former lover talking so coldly.

Zhengyang couldn't stand it, and sneered: "Gao Zeming, my wife is sorry for you at some point, you have to treat her like this." I think she ...... for you."

"Zhengyang!"

Xia Shi hurriedly called, she blessed Gao Zeming, and said, "It's rude, take your leave." ”

Gao Zeming was angry at her appearance for some reason, and he said coldly: "Don't you want to know, how did I survive?" ”

Xia smiled: "It's good to live." ”

"Don't you want to know who caused me to do this?" Gao Zeming's always calm face set off anger.

Xia shook his head and looked at him: "Zeming, I know, it's good that you're alive." ”

Xia leaned over, turned to leave, and straightened his back. Twenty years of time, twenty years of thinking, it turned out to be just a dream. It's time to wake up.

Gao Zeming rushed over, grabbed her, and called out in a lost voice: "It's your husband, my own brother, do you know it." ”

Xia smiled sadly. She already knew. But what can she do, in order to survive, she has no way.

"Zeming, I beg you again, is it okay to change Lin Xi?"

Gao Zeming looked at her hard.

"Is it okay to use my life?"

Xia Shi said sadly: "I know I owe you a lot, if you want my life, I have nothing to say, I just ask you to let Lin Xi go and not let her go to kiss." ”

"Who is she? You're going to speak like that for her? Gao Zeming gritted his teeth.

Xia shook with tears, and the sadness on his face made people unbearable: "If I say that she is your daughter, believe it or not." ”

"Impossible, how can she be your daughter, how can she be your daughter, how can she be your daughter of the Queen Mother and Li Yingjie's granddaughter." Gao Zeming was shocked and blurted out.

Xia's figure shook. That Yao Wan is really not an ordinary person.

Zhengyang saw that the situation was not good, and he helped him, and said to Gao Zeming: "She is naturally not the daughter of my wife, but she has saved my wife." Moreover, my wife has been fasting and reciting Buddha for more than ten years for you, what else do you want? ”

Zhengyang hugged Xia and said sharply: "Madam, let's go, don't beg him." ”

Gao Zeming grabbed it: "What did you say?" ”

Zhengyang said coldly: "Gao Zeming, although I am a slave, I can't stand it anymore." Did you forget the first night of your exile? ”

The first night?

Gao Zeming smiled bitterly, that night was boundless in spring, how could he forget.

Zhengyang sneered: "In order to make you feel at ease, my wife deliberately waited halfway. I robbed you in the middle of the night for you and your wife...... If my wife didn't want to follow you, how could she recommend a pillow for herself. ”

Gao Zeming was silent. He had always thought that she was guilty.

"Unexpectedly, in just one night, the lady became pregnant. Gao Zecheng said that the grandson of the Prime Minister's Mansion could be left behind, and said that Mrs. Dong would take care of her when she entered the mansion. My wife thought that the prime minister's mansion was powerful, and you would always come back, so she followed the prime minister into the mansion, intending to give the child in her belly a place to live. ”

Gao Zeming was shocked, it turned out that she was pregnant with his child. (To be continued......)
