Wen Xian'an pursed her lips and rolled her eyes, as long as this Lou didn't scold her, she panicked in her heart, and before the words came out, she heard her father Wen Cheng say: "If you think that the confinement is less, you might as well add a few more days." ”

Lou Shi was stunned, his face turned pale, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, he opened his mouth, but he didn't spit out half a word, he glanced at Wen Xian'an with disgust, snorted coldly, and turned away with anger.

Although Wen Xiaoxiao was angry, she was calm in the end, bowed her head slightly, led the maid, and quickly followed Lou's.

"Master, the concubine will also retire first."

Wen Cheng nodded, and waved his sleeves, which was considered permission.

With the support of Wen Qingyue, Zhou walked out of the yard unhurriedly.

The surrounding maids were sent back by Wen Cheng, and Wen Xian stood beside him, stopping quietly and not making a sound.

"Xian'an, you should step down too!"

After a long time, Wen Cheng sat on the chair and said slowly.

Wen Xian'an's expression tightened, staring at her father's face and probing carefully, she hadn't seen her for a few days, and she looked older and older, seeing that Wen Cheng didn't pay attention to herself, and the words she wanted to say choked on her lips, so she had to spit out a few words.

"Daddy take care of your health, and my daughter will retire first."

took a few steps back, turned around and walked into the corridor on one side, Qingling stood not far away, waved his hand, Wen Xian'an smiled faintly, and led Qingling out of the courtyard.

Lou's residence.

"Wen Xian'an, that little slut, like her mother, is a fox embryo."

The teacup shattered in response, the water stains spilled on the ground, Lou Shi had a gloomy face, sat on the chair, and the maids around him knelt on the ground, their heads buried very low, trembling.

Wen Xiaoxiao stepped forward lightly and said comfortingly: "Mother, don't be angry. ”

Looking at Wen Xiaoxiao's face, Lou's face softened a lot, took Wen Xiaoxiao's hand, her eyes were full of love, and said: "Xiaoxiao, you also saw it today, the souls of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and King Xian are about to be snatched away by her, you have to fight for luck, this position of the crown princess, you must try to get it." ”

Wen Xiaoxiao's eyes narrowed, she pursed the corners of her mouth, nodded and said, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely sit on the throne of the crown princess." ”

Lou Shi smiled with satisfaction, since An Zhiqing died of illness, she has been staring at the position of the eldest lady for a long time, as long as there is a chance, she will mention it in front of Wen Cheng, but An Zhiqing is like a sensitive word, between them, as long as she hears An Zhiqing's name, Wen Cheng will be like thunder.

So that for so many years, she is still the position of the second lady, and she has become a laughing stock in the prime minister's mansion, she knows that a dead person can't hinder anything at all, but because of Wen Xian'an's existence, she has not been able to turn around.

Thinking of this, the anger in her eyes gradually deepened, her hands touched Wen Xiaoxiao's face, Lou had a smile on her face, and right now, only Wen Xiaoxiao was her only sustenance.

Wen Cheng sat on the chair, fiddled with the wrench on his fingers, and said slowly: "Butler, follow me to the ancestral hall." ”

Ancestral temple.

This is the most remote place in the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, flowers and plants are planted around the ancestral hall, and there are maidservants to clean it every day, and the yard is clean.

"Squeak", the heavy wooden door was pushed open, and the wooden plaque of the late Wen ancestor was placed inside, and on the wooden plaque in the upper right, there were three eye-catching big characters engraved - An Zhiqing.

The butler stepped aside and gently closed the door.

Wen Cheng took out three incense sticks from the other side, gently lit them on the candle, bowed slightly, bowed three times, and then inserted the three incense sticks into the incense burner in front of An Zhiqing's wooden card.

An Zhiqing is happy to be quiet, except for the maidservants who are cleaned every day in this ancestral hall, no one can get close to half a step without Wen Cheng's permission, and even Wen Xian'an only has a vague impression.

She loves flowers and plants, so he ordered people to sprinkle flower seeds around the ancestral hall, and this time has been more than ten years, and the flowers and plants outside are very beautiful.

Wen Cheng stopped in place, his eyes were slightly moist, he sighed softly, and said as if talking to himself: "Aqing, it's been more than ten years, and our daughter Xian'an has also become a big girl. ”

In the past ten years, whether it is spring and summer, or autumn and winter, as long as he has free time, he will definitely come to this ancestral hall to walk around and talk to this cold wooden sign.

He will never forget that scene has been deeply imprinted in his mind, An Zhiqing's face was pale on the last night of his death, without a trace of blood, but his eyes were still clear, lying on the bed, and what he said.

"Ah Cheng, Xian'an is still young, so there is no mother, I don't ask for anything else, I just ask you to take good care of Xian'an,......"

He didn't remember the rest, but he remembered that his eyes were dull and numb, and that the snow that night was so heavy that it was half a foot deep and covered with snow, which covered the eaves.

For so many years, he has been vacant in the position of the eldest lady, no matter how Lou complains in front of her, he has never backed down half a step, because only he knows that he can't pass that hurdle, and in his mind, only An Zhiqing is his main house.

The second is to protect Wen Xian'an, this mixed world, he has already seen too much, how he doesn't know about the open and secret battles in the house, but Xian'an is young, and this is the only way to protect her well.

Wen Cheng exited the door and watched the door gradually close, all the dust and past seemed to be sealed behind the door.

The other side.

Gu Hanjing and Gu Zhanling walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion side by side, and walked to a corner, Gu Hanjing's figure paused, shaking the fan in his hand, a pair of peach blossom eyes turned, the meaning in his eyes was unclear, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and said: "The second brother's speed is very fast, and the third brother is ashamed of himself." ”

Gu Zhanling had a cold face, smiled hypocritically, and said sarcastically: "The third brother is not bad, this news is well-informed." ”

"Where is the second brother, this Prime Minister Wen Cheng has returned from disaster relief, everyone knows that it happened at a moment today, but I didn't expect to meet the second brother."

There was no one around, Gu Zhanling simply tore his face, and said casually: "You can see just now, Miss Wen doesn't seem to have a good impression of you, it's better to give up as soon as possible and stay in the prince's mansion obediently." ”

Gu Hanjing's eyes darkened, his face was unmoved, he smiled, and said: "Second brother, I even threw away this "disguise", if others see it, I am afraid that your title of the virtuous king will have to be changed." ”

Gu Zhanling snorted coldly, did not reply, and got into the carriage leisurely.

Inside the car.

Gu Zhanling clenched his hands, his muscles flared up, from childhood to adulthood, he was better than Gu Hanjing in everything, but in the eyes of his father, there will always be only Gu Hanjing's existence, no matter how good he is, there is nothing else except a dazzling array of rewards.
