Chapter 40: Lord Ling'er

Xi Yue, who has become a little prince in her womb, failed to come to this world to take a look after all, Xi Yue became haggard under the double blow of losing her sister and child, and washed her face with tears every day. Seeing that Feng Huanyu was about to ascend the throne, he pushed away all political affairs, threw himself on Xi Yue, changed his way to make Xi Yue happy, and even made an exception to promote the old man to the attendant of the Hanlin Academy, and also gave him a house near the palace, which was a treasure land with excellent feng shui that no one else's daughter could buy. It made Mu Liang's eyes red for a while. Unexpectedly, he planned to defeat the Xi family spiritually, but he always let them be blessed by misfortune. Not to mention that the eldest daughter became the crown princess, even the youngest daughter who died was posthumously named the county lord of Anping and was buried with the gift of the county lord. Because Xi Shuang's death was for the safety of the Xi family, after several discussions, Emperor Feng personally finalized the title. Even Xi's father was promoted to the rank of attendant of the Hanlin Academy, and although he was of the same rank as him, he was much better off in Kyoto than he was in the backwoods. Mu Liang's jealousy burned even more, but fortunately, the little prince was not born, as long as she Xi Yue couldn't give birth to a child, the Xi family would not be rampant for long! Mu Liang also did whatever it took to defeat the Xi family.

Knowing that the crown princess lost her beloved son, relatives from all walks of life entered the palace to express their condolences. Concubine Xin deliberately delayed her trip for two days, and pretended to be weak and sick. As soon as he saw Xi Yue, he held her hand and wiped her tears with a fake smile, "Crown Princess, mourn!" This palace is also to blame! If it weren't for my mouth, ......" Xin Guifei looked annoyed, and her eyes were full of tears. The maid next to her echoed, "Crown Princess, since I learned the news, the concubine Niangniang has been crying all night, and her eyes are swollen from crying, so I came to see you as soon as the swelling went down." The slaves and maids were distressed when they looked at it. "Don't say it, it's the carelessness of the palace." Xin Guifei and the maid sang and harmonized, which provoked Xi Yue to quickly hand Xin Guifei a handkerchief. "Concubine Niangniang, it's none of your business, it's this kid who is not blessed!" Xi Yue sighed.

The corners of Concubine Xin's mouth hooked up an arc that was difficult for others to detect, in fact, she knew that if she didn't play a bitter trick, Feng Huanyu would definitely investigate to the end, and when the time came, Mu Liang and Feng Huanshi would also be implicated. As soon as he acted like this, he actually wanted to get Xi Yue's words, since Xi Yue said so, Feng Huanyu would definitely not pursue anything more.

And after learning the news, Feng Huanrong also rushed back, of course, the person on the tip of Feng Hou's heart - Ling'er County Lord.

The county lord of Ling'er is the daughter of the phoenix's own nephew, and the younger brother of the phoenix queen has been fighting on the battlefield all the year round, and she was just a baby babbling when she sacrificed her life for the country. Ling'er's mother also died of depression because of this, and the queen sympathized with her that she was still young and had no parents, so she was raised by her side since she was a child and grew up with Feng Huanrong. In fact, Empress Feng deliberately matched Feng Huanrong and Ling'er, after all, Feng Huanrong also grew up beside her since she was a child, and with her understanding of Feng Huanrong, she entrusted Ling'er to him, absolutely assured, and the two seemed to get along very well. After all, after a hundred years, Ling'er still needs a reliable person to take care of, although Feng Huanrong sometimes looks out of tune, but Queen Feng knows that he is absolutely reliable. It's just that after Feng Huanrong heard that the queen intended to match herself and Ling'er, she actually asked Emperor Feng for advice and followed a Taoist priest to travel around. The day of the banquet was also very strange, why was it so easy for Emperor Feng to match Xishuang and Feng Huanrong, the two had just met, Feng Huanrong acquiesced to this red line, and why was it so difficult for her to match Ling'er and Feng Huanrong? ! Usually, Feng Huanrong hates the words of his parents. But Queen Feng never gave up ordering their mandarin duck scores, now that Xi Shuang has passed away, her abacus began to play openly, and even Xi Jue later became her abacus.

In fact, Ling'er and Feng Huanrong didn't get along as well as Feng Hou saw.

"Hey Feng Huan Rong! What did you come back for? Before Ling'er entered the East Palace, she saw a familiar figure, of course, needless to say, except for Feng Huanrong, no one was so out of tune. It's just that today's Feng Huanrong actually took off his red robe for the first time and replaced it with a robe that pressed the bottom of the box. Of course, he searched for a long time to find such a dull color of clothing, after all, Xi Shuang's mourning period has not yet passed, and a little prince has been killed, and basically no one in the palace dares to wear bright clothes, otherwise the head is moved, not to mention, even the nine clans may not be guaranteed. Even Concubine Xin also pretended to change into a lotus lotus-colored scattered flower skirt, slightly reining in the original flowers. After all, the successive misfortunes are not to mention that the crown princess and the Xi family are extremely sad, and even the emperor and the crown prince are also very sad. After all, Emperor Feng lost a grandson and an excellent candidate for a daughter-in-law. Even he was a little worried, in case Feng Huan Rong learned from Feng Huan Yu and played infatuation, wouldn't he have to worry about Feng Huan Rong's marriage again? !

It's her again?! Feng Huanrong saw Ling'er, pretended not to see it, and couldn't help complaining, the road is narrow. Ling'er turned to one side, blocking Feng Huanrong's way, and looked at Feng Huanrong with provocative eyes, "Why, I'm scared when I see this county lord?!" Ling'er sneered. This made Feng Huan angry, and the corners of his mouth twitched, afraid of her?! Joke?! "I was worried that you would be scared to see me." Feng Huanrong pushed Ling'er away and walked in on his own.

"Feng Huan allows you to be vulgar!! I'm not afraid of you!! Ling'er chased after him reluctantly, in order to prove that she was not afraid of him, she and Feng Huanrong walked side by side, and the two of them secretly competed. Indeed, she was quite afraid of Feng Huanrong for a while, because he always caught some strange things to scare her, either spiders or cockroaches, and the most excessive time was to catch a mouse and put it in her dormitory, which scared Ling'er that she didn't close her eyes all night, and she was mentally exhausted all day. For this reason, she not only complained to the queen's aunt, but even avoided Feng Huanrong every day. Ling'er doesn't hate Feng Huanrong, but she definitely doesn't like it, if Feng Huanrong hadn't threatened her with a mouse, she wouldn't have cooperated with Feng Huanrong's performance and pretended to get along well in front of the queen's aunt!

Xi Yue finally held back her tears under Feng Huanyu's bitter heart, and besides, there was an endless stream of people who came to condole, either relatives of the emperor or high-ranking officials. Although Xi Yue was extremely sad, she hadn't lost her mind yet, she knew that she couldn't offend or offend these people, and Feng Huanyu's ascension to the throne needed their help. Xi Yue endured the pain, simply cleaned up, and sat in the main hall to receive one distinguished guest after another. Sometimes wipe the tears with the female dependents, and sometimes smile at their comfort. In fact, her tears had long since dried up, and she didn't smile, everything was just a scene.

Feng Huanyu and Xi Yue had been receiving guests for a day, and they were already exhausted, and he was about to help Xi Yue go to the inner room to rest, but he saw two figures coming. Before anyone heard his voice, and before she came to her, Ling'er had already begun to angrily brush her sense of existence, "Brother Huang, sister-in-law!" ”

Feng Huanyu and Xi Yue were also stunned, but fortunately, they were not guests who needed to act on the spot, and at the end of the day, their faces were almost stiff. Feng Huanyu was a little surprised, these two people have never dealt with each other, the queen mother doesn't know, she is clear, why did these two come together now, what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd?

"Why are you here together?" Feng Huanyu still couldn't help but ask, these two people, except for going to meet their mother, have never been in the same frame, and suddenly being in the same frame makes people a little frightened, should they fight? !

Although Xi Yue has no contact with Ling'er, she has only met a few times in the marriage ceremony and the queen mother's bedroom, but this child's lively and cheerful gives her a sense of innocence, the same as her Xi Shuang. When Xi Yue saw Ling'er, it was like seeing Xi Shuang's eyes, and she couldn't help but want to touch her head.

"Imperial sister-in-law, don't be sad, Your Royal Highness will still have it." Ling'er stepped forward and shook Xi Yue's hand, she thought that Xi Yue was sad and sad because of the loss of her beloved son, but she didn't know that Xi Shuang was the biggest pain in Xi Yue's heart. Indeed, there will be more children, but there is only one Xishuang. The child and her have only been separated for a few months, but Xi Shuang has lived with her for more than eight years. Ling'er looked at the growing sadness in Xi Yue's eyes, a little unclear, could she be wrong?

"Sister-in-law, Shuangshuang is my fiancée, I will implore my father and the emperor to bury Shuangshuang." Feng Huan Rong is rare and serious, indeed, since his father intended to give marriage, he has regarded Xi Shuang as his fiancée, and he wanted to hold the hand of his son and grow old with his son, but who expected that yin and yang would be separated.

Xi Yue was a little moved, Feng Palace let her witness too much impossibility. Outsiders say that the heavenly family is ruthless, but they don't know that the heavenly family is also infatuated. Outsiders say that the emperor will not end from the beginning, but she has witnessed too much until death.

"Who's your fiancée!!" Before Xi Yue could speak, Xi Jue rushed in and grabbed Feng Huanrong's collar. Xi Jue was originally taller than Feng Huanrong, and he has been diligent in martial arts training recently, and his strength has increased a lot.

"Jue'er, don't be rude." Xi Yue gave Xi Jue a look, Xi Jue had no choice but to obediently retreat to Xi Yue's side, and before leaving, he left a sentence in a voice that only he and Feng Huan could hear, "Both are mine, no matter life or death." ”

Ling'er looked at Xi Jue in a daze, she thought that Feng Huanyu and Feng Huanrong's appearance was already first-class, until she saw Xi Jue, she didn't know what the best was. She had heard of Xi Jue for a long time, although she was the demon king of the Xi family, but she gave birth to a good skin, that day at the banquet, she peeked at Xi Jue countless times, wanting him to look at herself, but his eyes always fell on the girl next to him, and he never found his hot gaze. Since then, Ling'er has been deeply fascinated by Xi Jue, even though Xi Jue's eyes are always on Xi Shuang, but Ling'er has told herself more than once that Xi Jue is Xi Shuang's brother, and there is only brother and sister love. In fact, she doesn't know, no, most people don't know, Xi Shuang is actually just the adopted daughter of the Xi family.

"That, are you Xi Jue?" Ling'er asked timidly, perhaps because of Xi Jue's height, she felt an inexplicable pressure.

"Hmm." Xi Jue looked at Ling'er inexplicably, and then looked at Feng Huanrong, Feng Huanrong just gloated and gave him a "take care" look, seeing that Xi Jue was a little hairy, it seemed that he was a difficult master. "You are?"

"The lord of this county...... Well, my name is Ling'er. Ling'er was unusually docile in front of Xi Jue, and she used to be "the lord of the county" to her peers, but in the face of Xi Jue, she used "I". She was worried that Xi Jue didn't like her domineering self, after all, what the prince and brother liked was gentle and considerate, so in front of Xi Jue, Ling'er changed her past rudeness and was extremely gentle. The woman is the one who pleases herself, she is even struggling with what clothes to wear and what kind of makeup to wear every day, although she may not be able to see Xi Jue, but she has always believed in that what if.

In order to appease Xi Yue's emotions, Feng Huanyu allowed Xi Jue to live in the East Palace for a few days, Xi's father couldn't often enter the palace because he had just taken office, but Xi's mother entered the palace from time to time to see her two children. And the county lord of Ling'er also ran to the East Palace every day, in the name of comforting the imperial sister-in-law, in fact, he wanted to meet his sweetheart.

Xi Jue was indeed entangled by the county lord Ling'er, and Feng Huanrong was secretly happy.
