Chapter 122: Raising Ground Overnight

The confessed thief talked nonsense and made indiscriminate accusations, and he had no good fruit to eat. And Jia Shuyan planned everything without suspicion, although he didn't deserve it, but he also exposed more, and next, if he wants to do it again, he will have to think twice.

After all, the matter passed without danger, and Yao Duran's hanging heart finally landed. Fatigue hit, and she went back to her room and fell asleep. When I woke up, half of the day and half of the night had passed, and the sky was about to dawn.

She lay in bed in a daze, reminiscing about her dream from last night. Yes, she had a very nice dream last night. She dreamed that Qiao Fengzhi was back, so she sat on the edge of her bed and whispered softly to her, and he told her a lot gently, but the dream was hazy, and she couldn't hear it really. Finally, he leaned down and hugged her, and gentle kisses fell on her forehead, cheeks, and lips. Her heart was full of joy, tears rippled in her dreams, and all her longings turned into one sentence, and she persistently repeated the sentence: "Fengzhi, don't go, don't leave my ......"

……

After dawn, the whole country rejoiced, and the firecrackers thundered.

Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and it is also the day of great joy for Lord Nanqian Shangshu Qiao to marry the princess.

It is said that the wedding was grand, and all the people watched. The red carpet paved the way, and Huo Jingrou, who was dressed in a phoenix crown, did not get dusty on her feet, and was personally hugged by Huo Jingcheng into the carriage to welcome her relatives, and went all the way along the red carpet to the front of Shangshu Mansion. On the way, Huo Jingrou lifted her hijab, lifted the curtain, and sprinkled a lot of candy and gold leaves to the onlookers on both sides of the road with a smile on her face, causing the people to cheer and scramble, and the scene was unprecedentedly lively. The people followed the carriage and chanted all the way: "May Her Royal Highness the princess and the concubine have a deep and white head - may Her Royal Highness the princess and the concubine have a deep and white head-"

When I arrived at the Shangshu Mansion, I saw the shadows in front of the mansion from a distance, and the guests came in and out like clouds. Qiao Fengzhi waited in front of the house, he was wearing a scorching red clothes, compared to the white clothes Ruoxue in Suri, he was a little more handsome and glamorous today, and his demeanor was compelling. Under the coaxing and embracing of a group of children of the family, he helped Huo Jingrou from the carriage with a smile, but the wedding dress was too long, Huo Jingrou accidentally tripped under his feet, Qiao Fengzhi smiled loudly, and under the attention of everyone watching the ceremony, he picked her up horizontally and strode back to the house.

The newly renovated Shangshu Mansion is full of scenery, rockery waterfalls, green trees and flowers, and a long corridor and lake. It's more like a landscape garden for people to visit than a residence.

The guests in the house come and go, and it is very lively. The climate of Nangan is warm and moist, and everything is semi-open. So, in this gorgeous and beautiful landscape courtyard, several tables of banquets were set up. The guests walked around and toasted each other, and the scene was in full swing. The courtiers who attended the wedding banquet either complimented each other politely, or saw Qiao Fengzhi to send congratulatory speeches. The younger children of the family were laughing and toasting from table to table.

Yun Ce did not attend today's wedding banquet, if the previous rumored break between master and apprentice was just a sign of ignorance, then Yun Ce's absence today has made everyone confirm this matter. Naturally, Huo Jingyao didn't come, and his absence, needless to say, everyone also knows the reason, first, he is not on good terms with Huo Jingrou, and secondly, he has Qiao Fengzhi's sensitivity. And Huo Jingcheng, as a brother, had no way to come, so he left in a hurry after a trip. In addition, it was King Cheng Huo Jingxiao who came with a spring breeze on his face, and was surrounded by the guests to feast and drink, and his arrival confirmed one thing, that is, Qiao Fengzhi's alliance with King Cheng has been revealed.

When everyone was thinking about it, Qiao Fengzhi had already come to Huo Jingxiao's table and toasted him, and the two were harmonious, talking and laughing. Huo Jingxiao praised Qiao Fengzhi in his words and sent a congratulatory message.

It's just that the sky is not beautiful, the sky is clear, but the rain is dripping. In order to ease the scene, the guests all said that it was sunny and rainy, and it would pass in a while, which was a good sign. However, this sunny rain still did not mean to stop, but the sky gradually darkened, and the sunny rain suddenly changed to rainy, and it was endless. Nanqian is like this, the four seasons are like spring, rainy and snowless, and there is never a year of snow and a trillion years.

The rain did not stop, and the guests were already full of food and drink, so they no longer embarrassed Qiao Fengzhi, so they left one after another. Qiao Fengzhi kept it again and again, but only left nearly two tables of guests, placed them in the indoor pavilion, and continued to feast and drink.

Qiao Fengzhi was toasted by all parties and got drunk early. In the confusion, someone helped him, and the person seemed polite, but in fact it implied a lot of strength, with a meaning that could not be refused. Qiao Fengzhi was in a daze and left with him.

It was raining heavily, and the man helped him to rest under a long corridor. Qiao Fengzhi leaned against the red pillar, his eyes didn't open, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing this, the person who helped him said, "Why are you drunk like this?" ”

Qiao Fengzhi smiled drunkenly, looked up, and said, "Du Yan, thank you for your willingness to come to my happy event." ”

Du Yan sat down beside him, watching the rain like pearls, and a face with pear blossoms and rain suddenly appeared in his mind. He retracted his gaze and said, "Yes, this is a happy event, a great joy for you." It's just that who's sad behind it? By the way, aren't you curious, how did the well water go from poisonous to non-toxic? ”

Qiao Fengzhi paused, and said in a low voice: "Du Yan, thank you." ”

He was so concise and to the point, and the reason for the word "Xie" was unknown, I don't know if it was to thank him for telling him the whole truth the night before, or to thank him for saving Yao Duran's life.

Du Yan said: "Don't avoid it, the well water is poisonous and non-toxic, and it is not so simple behind it." ”

There was too much rain, and it seemed to splash into Qiao Fengzhi's eyes, he raised his hand to cover his forehead, and said, "Yes, it's not simple, last night...... I quietly went back to Hehuan Lane and found out the results. ”

Du Yan was very surprised, and looked at him sideways: "You went back last night?" Does Yao Duran know? ”

Qiao Fengzhi shook his head lightly: "She doesn't know, she's too tired, she sleeps too deeply, and she doesn't know anything." ”

Du Yan was silent for a moment and asked, "So, what's going on with that well water?" ”

Qiao Fengzhi always covered his head with his hands, and said slowly: "It's her, she smashed the lock of the courtyard, and then lifted up her own poisonous well water and poured it into the courtyard of the opposite gate, and replaced the non-toxic well water in the courtyard of the opposite door." ”

With a "boom", a thunderclap flashed, and the rain became more and more majestic. Only the atmosphere between the two was deadly.

He narrated it so lightly, but whoever thinks about it, it's not so light behind it. Two wells, one by one, were brought up, and one by one was poured into the courtyard opposite the door until the well water was poured dry, and then the non-toxic well water from the opposite courtyard was brought up one by one, and one by one poured into the well. The non-stop rush all night, the sadness of the rush, the rush without help, the rush in the night and the mud, to his mouth, it was so light and light, there was less "bucket by bucket" and "one trip at a time".

Du Yan imagined that scene, and his heart was blocked. He didn't answer anymore and got up to leave.

"Du Yan!" Qiao Fengzhi suddenly called him.

Du Yan stopped and turned around: "What?" ”

"You like her?" Qiao Fengzhi asked bluntly.

Du Yan was silent.

Qiao Fengzhi said again: "When you were in Shanyuan, you tricked me into coming back to protect her. And now, you and I are not friends or foes, you should really want to borrow Jia Shuyan's hand to defeat me, you can pretend that you don't know anything, and let me fall into Jia Shuyan's trap, but in order to protect her life, you gave up this opportunity to leave me a chance to live, it can be seen that you like her very much, right? ”

Du Yan looked him in the eye and said, "What if it is?" ”

Qiao Fengzhi was silent for a long time, and finally said, "When did you like her?" ”

Du Yan squinted slightly, thought about it matter-of-factly, and finally said frankly: "The first time I saw her, I liked it, how about it?" She was very well-behaved, very intelligent, very reserved, very brave, and very good-looking, and I was a very different kind of person from my wife, and when I saw her, it was as if I had seen a wonderful storybook. How? I didn't have a chance at the beginning, but now you can't take care of it, right? ”

Qiao Fengzhi was speechless.

Du Yan looked at the rain curtain and sneered: "Qiao Fengzhi, I don't think about why your temperament has changed greatly, I only know that some people are wrong for a lifetime." And you, there is no more chance. Also, although you don't have the heart to harm her, don't forget where your pillow person will be in the future. If you can save Yao Duran from her hands, I, Du Yan, will also respect you as a good man. ”

When Qiao Fengzhi heard this, he seemed to smile bitterly, and then said lightly: "Thank you, don't send it slowly." ”

……

At dusk, Yao Duran was watching the rain through the window in the room, the rain was lighter, but it was still continuous, and the rain was densely mixed, bringing cool water vapor.

In the courtyard, it has been decorated with blessings and green diaphragms, and the couplets are neatly pasted, which has a bit of New Year's charm.

At this time, only to hear a sound of "kicking and clacking", Yao Duran looked over, only to see that Fuquan and Biya had moved the round table in the courtyard.

Fuquan said: "Madam, the dumpling filling has been chopped, let's make dumplings together in the room, and it will be easy to cook and eat tomorrow's New Year's Day, that is the authentic New Year's flavor." ”

Bi Ya said: "Yes, madam, the dumpling filling of the slave and maid is not bad, in addition to the meat filling, I also specially prepared a vegetarian trap for Mrs. Baozhun one after another, I can't stop." ”

Yao Duran looked at the two happy faces in front of her, knowing that today was a sensitive day, they were afraid that she would be uncomfortable, afraid that she would be cranky, so they tried their best to enliven the atmosphere and wanted her to be happy.

Yao Duran brushed the broken hair around her ears, came to the table and sat down with a smile, and said, "Okay, let's compete to make dumplings and see who makes the most dumplings." Go to the kitchen and get the stuffing and dough, and here we go. ”

"Okay!!" Fuquan happily went to the kitchen and ran away.

The rain was pouring outside the window, but inside the window was a warm and good time. The three masters and servants gathered around the round table, making dumplings while talking and laughing.

Fu Quan suddenly had a whim and said, "Madam, Biya, I'll tell you a joke, how about it?" ”

When Biya heard the joy, she subconsciously clapped her hands, but forgot that her hands were stained with flour, so she slapped it like this, and suddenly there was a burst of powder mist, and she left the round table in a panic, and sneezed many times in a row.
