The rebellion was quelled, and the turmoil was eliminated, but the martial law in the capital was not reduced, but this martial law was only to eliminate the remnants of the rebel party, but it no longer affected the lives of the people, and it also made everyone gradually feel at ease.

Xijiao finally had the opportunity to enter the palace and saw his father who was in good health, but his expression was a little depressed and lonely. Then on the way to visit the queen who was sick in bed, she was stopped by the third princess Chunyi and took her out of the palace directly.

She later learned that her adoptive mother, her queen mother, fell ill first because of the prince's rebellion, and Concubine Xian and Yu Ziju conspired to force the palace to seize power.

Chunyi has not been in contact with the prince and queen for many years because of the fact that her own mother and queen have not interacted with the prince and queen for many years in order to help her son consolidate her position, so she has nothing to do with the prince's rebellion and has not been stained with dirty water.

It's just that this time, after she entered the palace to visit her father, she was taken away by her mother's henchmen, and she was lured and coerced by her, asking her to avenge her second brother of the crown prince.

When she left the palace, she passed by a person, and that person was Du Yuanzhi, who was rewarded by Emperor Mingzong.

This time, the two men just met eye contact, but didn't say anything.

But two days later, when Xijiao followed her sister-in-law and accompanied her mother-in-law to the Temple of Mercy and Grace outside the city to offer incense, she saw him again - he also specially asked the maid to send a note to her personal maid Mei Makeup, asking her to meet.

Because Xijiao was pregnant, Mrs. Luo and her eldest daughter-in-law did not embarrass her, and let her go to the meditation room to rest early, so as not to move the fetus, so she had the opportunity to meet Du Yuanzhi.

Time flies, and I haven't seen each other for seven years......

It's just that when Lin Ruo was still there, he told her something about Du Yuanzhi's entry into Jiangnan to the office. Later, her heart knot was untied, and she didn't bother to inquire about him again.

After seven years of precipitation, the once delicate and willful princess now treats people more and more like the person who is most impressive in her memory, and will involuntarily imitate her dignified and virtuous in front of people, will imitate her just right smile to hide the turbulence in her heart, and will subconsciously stroke her own unmanifested lower abdomen - there is a little life there, which is the crystallization of her and her husband's love.

After seven years of tempering, the once high-spirited scholar has now become a calm and introverted official, and a good official who works for the welfare of the people, but he is still standing alone and alone, because he can't forget that back then, it was he who gave up that unattainable marriage for the sake of his career.

When he was in Jiangnan, his boss Zhang Xu, who took care of him, once mentioned it to him euphemistically; Now that he has arrived in the capital, because of the work of quelling the rebellion, many people have noticed that he has a faint trend of rising to the top, and many people have expressed their intention to marry him. But his heart was unresolved, and the guilt was hard to shake.

"The Eighth Princess......

Du Zhen opened his mouth, and finally spoke, with an honorific salute, narrowing the distance between them.

Xijiao bowed her head slightly, pursed her lips and said nothing. After a long time, he spoke, and said politely: "Lord Du is young and promising, and now that he has entered the household department and is reused by the imperial court, he will definitely have a bright future in the future." ”

Her speed of speech was not fast, her voice was gentle, if someone familiar saw this scene, they would definitely feel that her calm and detached appearance was very similar to Lin Ruo.

However, Du Zhen still remembers the scene when Lin Ruo persuaded him at the beginning, and he will never forget it - it was a turning point in his life.

Seeing this situation, Du Zhen's heart was even more colic, and he almost blurted out and asked, "Yuetang, are you still hating me?" ”

This title frightened Mei Makeup's face pale and scolded her.

But Xijiao was only slightly stunned, as if she remembered the past, and then smiled with relief and said, "Master Du, you misunderstood." I'm doing well, and ...... It was my own choice, and I didn't blame anyone, let alone hate anyone. ”

Du Zhen stiffened, Xijiao said, was that her own choice? Isn't it that he took the initiative to choose to give up, give up this marriage that he couldn't climb, and despicably exchange this bargaining chip for the opportunity to go to Jiangnan Qingmiao Division to get a position, and then left a letter to ask Princess Rong to bring into the palace?

"You don't have the ability to give Xijiao happiness now, but I hope that you can have the courage to wish her happiness."

This is what Lin Ruo said to him at the beginning, and it was because of this sentence that he made this decision. For so many years, he has always been obsessed with it, and he can't let it go.

That's what he thought in his heart, and he asked so. After seven years of hard work, he has long been able to be indistinguishable from joy and anger, and he can not let the other party guess his thoughts, but in the face of Xijiao, when facing this beloved girl who had to live up and give up, he seemed to have changed back to the hairy boy who acted impulsively.

There was no trace of abnormality on Xijiao's face, and she said lightly: "Letter, I read it." The fourth sister-in-law told me something about you. After a pause, Xijiao got up, took a few steps forward, with a shallow smile on her face, and said slowly: "Master Du, you don't have to blame yourself, you are not the only one who gave up at the beginning." Don't dwell on the past, and don't feel guilty or regretful about it. Today, we have all become better people, you have fulfilled your ambitions, and I have met my beloved. ”

Du Zhen looked at Xi Jiao, her expression was a little dazed, and she repeated her words in a muttered voice: "Drawing from the past? I'm not the only one who has given up? My ambition, your beloved......"

After a long time, Du Zhen closed his eyes in pain, then opened them again, and asked at the figure of Xijiao who was about to leave, "Are you really ...... Haven't you ever regretted it? ”

Xijiao stopped, turned her head, and smiled faintly: "I don't regret it, but I have a little regret." ”

Du Zhen's eyes lit up.

Xi Ji shrugged her shoulders a little helplessly, and chuckled: "But, who has no regrets in life?" ”

Hearing this, Du Zhen froze again, and he understood the meaning of Xijiao's words. Just as he was about to say something more, a call forced him to swallow the words back into his mouth.

"Xijiao, I'm back, are you in a hurry?"

An eager and familiar voice came, and Xijiao and Du Zhen were both stunned, and they didn't come back to their senses for a while.

Before he could reply, Chun Yi walked quickly to Xi Jiao's side with a smile, smiling gently; But when he glanced at Du Zhen's afterglow, he was faintly sharp, as alert as Du Zhen, and naturally felt the hostility emanating from Chunyi.

"Three ......"

"Tang'er, are you here? It's so easy for me to find......" Another voice came, with gentle concern.

As soon as this voice sounded, Xijiao panicked in her heart, and followed the reputation, it was Luo Zhe.
