Chapter Forty-Eight: Willing?

Feng Yan hesitated.

She looked at Wei Xingzhen's eyes, and suddenly remembered that when he left Taiwei's house that day, he seemed to have said something similar.

- You don't have to call me Lord Wei, just call me by my name.

Is it so persistent.

"Okay...... Chaste. Feng Yan called in a low voice.

Wei Xingzhen sat back down contentedly.

The two sat opposite each other, Feng Yan looked at him, "Can you tell me why now?" ”

"What why."

"Why aren't you ready...... What do you have to prepare? ”

"Because Ah Yan has someone else in her heart now," Wei Xingzhen replied bluntly, "I don't want to force it." ”

Feng Yan was stunned for a moment, "...... I didn't! You don't have to mess around with hats to wear. ”

"Then what did you drink at the Lanting last night?"

"I ......," Feng Yan was speechless for a moment, "...... I'm just, suddenly, I want to taste the red mash. ”

"Do you believe this?"

Both were silent for a moment.

Feng Yan frowned, "...... Wei Xingzhen, are you not in the right position? ”

"On the contrary," Wei Xingzhen said with a straight face, "it is precisely because of the correct position that I don't want to be reluctant." ”

"In that case, then tomorrow you and I will go and leave, and I don't need you to force -"

"Is Ah Yan willing to give up me?" Wei Xingzhen interrupted softly.

Feng Yan was caught off guard by Wei Xingzhen's sudden rhetorical question, and was stunned again, and the second half of what she was about to say was forgotten for a while.

Are you willing?

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Scold. Feng Yan took a deep breath and looked away.

"The gods are so prosperous," Wei Xingzhen calmed down, "There are still many places where Ah Yan has not been, even if it is Heli, it is better to wait." ”

After a moment of silence, Feng Yan's eyes returned to their previous indifference, and she stood up without saying a word and walked out.

"Where are you going?" Behind him, Wei Xingzhen asked.

Feng Yan patted her sleeve.

"Hungry, go eat."

……

On this morning, Wei Xingzhen went out to the official office after breakfast as usual.

Feng Yan returned to the house alone, and after a while, she felt a little drowsy again, and she lay on the couch until it was nearly noon, before she felt that last night's wine had really woken up.

So Feng Yan got up and sat in the room reading as usual.

It's just that she didn't turn two pages before she felt angry and couldn't read it.

- "I'm not ready. ”

- "Do you believe this yourself?" ”

- "It is precisely because of the correct position that I don't want to be reluctant." ”

β€”β€”β€œβ€¦β€¦ Is Ah Yan willing to give up me? ”

Thinking of this last sentence, Feng Yan pinched the fingertips of the page unconsciously, and only heard a small soundβ€”the edge of the paper was directly broken by her.

She looked at the pages of the book that she had pinched to the point of damage, quickly threw the book aside, then got up and went to the closet to change her shoes and socks, and planned to go for a walk in the yard.

However, as soon as she stepped out of the courtyard, Feng Yan heard a familiar voice.

"Sister!" Feng Xiaoqi waved his hand from afar.

Feng Yan was a little surprised, "Why are you here?" ”

"Your Majesty, in order to mourn the old lady, let the masters of the Guozijian take a half-day vacation this afternoon, so as to make time to go to the Taiwei's mansion to pay their respects." Feng Xiaoqi smiled, "I got out of school early, so I'll come to see you!" ”

"You're alone?"

"Originally, the fifth brother also wanted to come, but there seems to be some big moves on the side of the Ping Demon Department in the past few days, so he returned to the team early in the morning."

Feng Yan frowned, and suddenly remembered that Wei Xingzhen was called back to the Xuanzheng Hall last night.

At that time, Fuguang said that Dali Temple had made some progress in the Mingtang underground palace case, and I didn't know if the big move of the Ping Demon Department was related to this matter......

Feng Xiaoqi took the flower hoe in Feng Yan's hand, "Sister, where are you going?" ”

"Go and take a walk in the garden next to it and see if there is a suitable location around here for digging a pond......" Feng Yan looked at her sister, "Do you want to take a look?" ”

"Hmm!"

While walking, Feng Xiaoqi looked at the courtyard here with emotion, although it was completely different from her sister's courtyard in Feng's house, but the style was completely the same - Feng Yan had only moved here for a few days...... This efficiency is also too high.

"Sister has such a big garden, and we must strengthen security in the past two days."

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

Speaking of this stubble, Feng Xiaoqi couldn't help but be happy, "Sister has been staying at home in the morning, so I don't know...... Last night, the news of Zhen Guogong's use of peach blossom petals as flowers spread early this morning, and now many young ladies are collecting petals. But at this time, in addition to the Yonglin by the Luoshui River, where are the peach blossoms in full bloom?

"As a result, someone took a risk in order to get a reward, and secretly went to His Majesty's Yonglin to steal flowers this morning!"

"Are you so daring?"

"Yes, there must be brave men under the heavy money. The flower thief was caught red-handed by the Peach Blossom Guard, but I heard that His Majesty did not punish him severely, but just sent the man to Guangde Temple to sweep the steps. Feng Xiaoqi said with a smile, "When I came, I stopped by to inquire, and at this time, not only peach blossom petals were bought, but also white orchids, hibiscus, morning glory, and lotus flowers...... There are all people in the market who are collecting it. ”

Feng Yan laughed, "This grandfather ...... It's not the first time it's caused such a commotion. ”

Feng Xiaoqi became curious, "What else has he done?" ”

"That's ...... It's a long story. ”

The two walked in the shade of the trees, and the scorching sun turned into a shimmer of light on them.

"In the twelfth year of Tianfu, he occasionally got a few agate pomegranates." Feng Yan said softly, "When the pomegranate flowers were in full bloom in May, he was afraid that others would not see how well his pomegranate flowers were blooming, so he transplanted the flower branches into the wooden sill and added a few wheels underneath.

"When people travel, they are followed by their own hound eagle vulture, and he leads a small wooden cart with flowers, calling it 'moving the spring threshold';

"As a result, it didn't take long for the carpenters in the Chang'an area to start working all night - because every family wanted to make a 'spring threshold' and wait for the next spring to fight flowers."

In the spring of the thirteenth year of Tianfu, he became obsessed with cockfighting again, and set up a cockfighting club with three or five friends, so the price of a rooster in the capital could be sold for hundreds of dollars;

"In the spring of the following year, he took his friends to the mountains to go on a hike, and everyone sat quietly in the bamboo forest, and agreed that whoever fell into the cup of the swirling bamboo leaves would drink and write poemsβ€”β€”"

"Ah," Feng Xiaoqi suddenly reacted, "Is it also the time when he specially cut the reins of the horse in order to watch Lord Wei walk?" ”

"That's right," Feng Yan nodded, "The people of the time called it the 'Feiying Club'. ”

Feng Xiaoqi finally understood.

"In that case, I have already heard of the name of this grandfather...... Strange people. ”

……

In a meeting hall in Dali Temple, Ji Ran suddenly looked at Wei Xingzhen with a frown.

"Lord Wei?"

Wei Xingzhen picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, "What's wrong?" ”

"Where did we just go?"

Wei Xingzhen put down the teacup.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ From the interrogation, you know that the four people who were caught in Chunhefang last time were all wanderers who fled to Luoyang a few years ago, and have been rescued by Shen Qian, a merchant in the city, and his subordinate 'Wuwei Pavilion' for the past few years. ”

Ji Ran leaned back slightly, holding his arms in his arms, examining Wei Xingzhen's words and deeds.

Since entering Dali Temple this morning, Wei Xingzhen has been careless - however, he seems to be in a good mood today, and he doesn't know what is going on, and a shallow smile will appear from time to time on his face, which is always expressionless.

"I can't see it, it turns out that Master Wei is listening."

Wei Xingzhen returned to her usual indifference, "Master Ji presided over the regular meeting, and it was not good to discuss the case with your subordinates, why did he come to stare at me to see if I listened to you carefully." ”

"Lord Wei's words are wrong," Ji Ran also had a cold face, "Since the emperor has appointed you to supervise the progress of this case this time, then I want to ensure that the news that Lord Wei has learned will always be consistent with us." ”
