Chapter 140: Serial (10)
However, he said that after more than half a year of rushing work, with hundreds of thousands of people working day and night, the construction project of Hewu was finally completed in the spring of the following year. When Dong Zhuo learned that the construction of Hewu had been completed, he sent a message to Feng Xian, saying that he would move his family from Chang'an in the near future. So, Feng Xian waited for Dong Zhuo's arrival in Yiwu.
However, on the way there, Dong Zhuo and his party were attacked by a large number of assassins. Then Feng Xian learned of this and hurriedly led the crowd to the rescue. At that time, the attendants on Dong Zhuo's side were almost dead, and there were only dozens of guards with relatively high martial arts left, who were still fighting to the death with the assassins on their backs.
After Feng Xian led Li Su, Qin Yi and other brothers to arrive, he fought the Assassins and defeated them all.
Immediately, Feng Xian dismounted again and came to the chariot and arched his hand: "Qi Taishi, the assassin has been repelled by his subordinates, which frightened the Taishi. β
At this time, the door of the chariot opened, but he saw that Dong Zhuo still had an arrow stuck in his right shoulder, and he smiled: "It's really hard for you." β
Seeing this, Feng Xian couldn't help but say unexpectedly: "Taishi, you are injured, is there a big problem?" β
Dong Zhuo smiled: "It's okay, this little injury is nothing; You have made a great contribution this time, and the old man will reward you for his good life. β
Feng Xian replied: "Thank you, Master." β
"Bong-first." At this time, Ren Hongchang emerged from the chariot and shouted Feng Xian with a smile.
Seeing this, Feng Xian couldn't help but be stunned: "Hongchang? How did you end up here? β
Seeing this, Li Su, Qin Yi and the others on the side couldn't help but look at each other, revealing suspicious looks.
At this time, Wei Xu suddenly stepped forward and said, "Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you doing well?" β
Ren Hongchang smiled and said, "My little sister is doing well, is my brother doing well?" β
Wei Xu grinned and said, "It's okay, I'll find you a sister-in-law; By the way, how did you end up in the chariot of the Grand Master? β
Ren Hongchang smiled slightly, but lowered his head and did not reply.
Dong Zhuo on the side couldn't help but say: "Diao Chan, it's cold outside, you can go inside." β
"No." Ren Hongchang answered, and then turned around and went back.
Wei Xu couldn't help but feel a little strange, so he asked Dong Zhuo: "Taishi, what are you and my sister-in-law?" β
Dong Zhuo said with a smile: "Oh, Diao Chan is Wang Situ's righteous daughter, and Wang Situ dedicated her to the old man as a concubine; Are you his brother? β
When Wei continued to hear this, he was a little incredulous. Immediately, he replied: "Hui Taishi, she and I are cousins; But when she was young, her parents died, and she was adopted by my family. β
"Oh, I see." Dong Zhuo nodded, and then said: "Looking at Feng Xian's appearance, it seems that he has already known Diao Chan, right?" β
At this moment, Feng Xian's heart was very difficult to accept, but he still gave up his hand and said: "Back to the Taishi, her subordinates are fellow villagers with her and have known each other since childhood." β
Dong Zhuo nodded with relief and said, "Well, the old man understands; Okay, let's not talk so much, let's go back to Yiwu first. β
"No." Feng Xian answered, then turned to the brothers and ordered, "Escort the Taishi back to Yiwu." β
The team continued to move. Qin Yi on the side couldn't help but sigh and shook his head and said, "It's really wronged." β
"Wronged? How so? Wei Xu asked a little puzzled.
Qin Yi smiled and replied, "You can think about it slowly." β
Wei Xu said with some puzzlement: "What do I have to think? β
Qin Yi couldn't help but smile and shook his head, but didn't say anything. At this time, Chen Wei suddenly said: "Heiwa, your sister has now become the concubine of Taishi Dong, what should Brother Bu do?" β
When Wei Xu heard this, he couldn't help but suddenly say, "Yes, how did I almost forget about this." β
Suddenly, everyone couldn't help but look at Feng Xian, but they saw that he had been bowing his head and contemplating, looking a little lost and depressed.
Wei Xu couldn't help but come up to him and asked, "Brother Bu, are you okay?" β
Feng Xian shook his head, but said nothing.
At this time, Li Su on the side stepped forward and touched Wei Xu with his weapon, shook his head, and signaled him not to open which pot to mention. So, Wei Xu stepped aside.
Along the way, Ren Hongchang in the chariot would lift the curtain slightly from time to time and quietly glance at Feng Xian through a little gap. Her every move was all watched by Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo's heart was somewhat clear at this moment.
Dong Zhuo asked: "Diao Chan, what is the relationship between you and Fengxian?" β
Ren Hongchang couldn't help but be surprised, but he didn't dare to reply.
Dong Zhuo said again: "Say it, the old man won't be angry." β
Ren Hongchang replied: "Back to the Taishi, Feng Xian once had a marriage contract with the slave maid, and he is the slave maid's fiancΓ©. β
"What?" When Dong Zhuo heard this, he was immediately surprised, but said: "What's going on, why didn't Wang Situ tell the old man beforehand?" β
Ren Hongchang said: "You are the master of the dynasty, how dare your father-in-law say this." β
Dong Zhuo said: "Hey, the old man won't eat him again; Wait a minute, aren't you the sister of that Ye Meiren, how did you become Fengxian's fiancΓ©e again? β
Ren Hongchang replied: "The Taishi is talking about Sister Wang Xi, not a slave. β
Dong Zhuo was puzzled: "Wang Xi? Is she also Wang Yun's daughter? β
Ren Hongchang nodded: "Exactly." β
Dong Zhuo immediately patted his forehead and said, "Oh, it's broken, it's all because the old man made a mistake for a while." β
Ren Hongchang sighed secretly, feeling a little sad in his heart.
Dong Zhuo couldn't help but groan, and said: "In this way, go back and let Wang Yun promise that Wang Xi to Fengxian, and the old man will reward him well, which can be regarded as a compensation for him." β
Ren Hongchang said: "I rely on the master to decide. β
Chang'an is more than 100 kilometers away from Hewu, and it is only half of the journey at this time. By this time, it was getting late, so they stayed overnight at the inn on the way.
After the doctor treated Dong Zhuo's wounds, he summoned Feng Xian and said, "Feng Xian, the old man is now old, and there is no suitable person by his side to inherit the future; You are loyal and diligent, so the old man intends to accept you as a righteous son to inherit the great cause; I don't know what you think? β
Feng Xian arched his hand and said, "Thanks to the wrong love of the Taishi, my subordinates can't afford it." β
"Ugh." Dong Zhuo sighed and said, "The old man knows that you have a marriage contract with Diao Chan in advance, but now that the matter is a foregone conclusion, what can you do if you are not happy?" β
Feng Xian said: "The subordinates don't dare. β
Dong Zhuo said with a little helplessness: "Alas, okay, don't be unhappy; Isn't it just a woman, there are so many beauties in the world, why do you have to recognize Diao Chan? Let this matter be settled, and from now on you will be the old man's righteous son; In addition, the old man will instruct the Son of Heaven to issue an edict and crown you as the Marquis of Duting, which can be regarded as the old man's compensation for you. β
Feng Xian stood there without speaking, obviously not uncommon for such a reward.
Dong Zhuo couldn't help but say again: "What, isn't the old man worthy of being your father-in-law?" β
Feng Xian said: "This is not a relationship of deserving or unworthy; If his subordinates recognize Taishi as their father-in-law, they will have to sever their relationship with Hongchang; I can't be the one who has a bad heart. β
Dong Zhuo said unhappily: "Okay, what kind of affection is not emotional; The love between the two of you will be exhausted from today, and when you turn around, your father-in-law will ask Wang Situ to marry him to another righteous queen; Whether you like it or not, it's settled. β
At this moment, Feng Xian's heart is helpless in addition to helplessness. He also understands that what has happened is irreparable, but he is still unwilling to give in to reality. So he stood there and did not answer.
"Ugh." Regarding Feng Xian's stubborn character, Dong Zhuo shook his head with a sigh. Immediately afterwards he added: "Recently, my father-in-law has been wounded, and the matter of guarding it is up to you; In addition, the assassins who assassinated the old man before should also conduct a thorough investigation when they return to Yiwu; We must investigate and deal with who is behind the mastermind. β
Feng Xian arched his hand and replied, "No." β
Dong Zhuo said, "Okay, you step down, the old man is a little tired." β
"The subordinates retired." Feng Xian arched his hand and retreated.
Feng Xian, who retreated to the door, couldn't help but look at the sky sadly. His heart was suddenly a little confused: "What is right and wrong?" What's wrong and who's right? Can you, O virtuous brother, tell me what to choose? (To be continued.) )
