Chapter Seventy-Six: How to Comfort the Wind and Dust (I)

A succession turmoil of the Hundred Flowers Festival, and finally because of Fu Ying's arrival and dissuasion, Fu Rong gave up his original plan.

A farce has come to an end.

After a night of heavy rain, the next day was a sunny and cloudless day.

The sun walks after the wind and rain, and such weather seems to take care that everything will have a good outcome.

Huo Qingxin had already packed everything overnight, and the two of them with Su Jianxiang had left the Hundred Flowers Palace early in the morning with Wen Xun.

And early in the morning, Ji Chen was invited by Fu Ying to the courtyard where she lived.

She didn't tell Ji Chen, she had already persuaded her father to let Huo Qingxin and his party leave.

I asked him to come just because I wanted this man to fulfill his promise yesterday.

The results are the best.

There is no need to hurt a soldier, and the agreement between famous and decent families is also taken into account, so it is the best choice to let Huo Qingxin leave like this.

The man who was called stood in the courtyard looking a little impatient.

Originally, he planned to go to Wen Xun and pick up Huo Qingxin to leave here, but he was called to this place.

Fu Ying, who was also standing in the courtyard with a slightly pale face, had already seen the expression on his face.

Ji Chen asked straight to the point, "What did you call me for?" ”

Fu Ying's gaze has been a little stupid, standing on the body of the man diagonally opposite.

Hearing this cold tone, she was a little hurt, obviously he was still a different person to her yesterday.

"I asked you to come because I wanted to ask if what you promised me yesterday can count?"

When the man heard this, his brows furrowed unconsciously, and he would never forget what it was.

He didn't answer the question immediately, but his silence made the woman beside him feel heartache for the first time.

With a wry smile, he withdrew his gaze and turned away, no longer looking at him.

seemed to be talking to himself, "I know that you are lying to me, but I still don't give up." Now, everything is happy to come to an end, and you have got the result you wanted, and I have lived up to your request... Let's go... ”

People born in this place, love seems to be superfluous, but fortunately, her heart is just beginning, and she hasn't fallen too deep.

When Ji Chen heard this, he moved his gaze to the person who had turned around at this moment.

What do you mean by that? What is the satisfactory solution? ”

"I have persuaded my father to let go and no longer restrict Miss Huo's freedom. This time, Miss Huo may have already left the Hundred Flowers Palace. ”

"That's true!"

Fu Ying looked bitter again, "I never tell lies!" ”

Ji Chen still had doubts in his heart, so he didn't say anything, but after glancing at the woman with his back to him, he left to check if Huo Qingxin had left.

Seeing him leave like this, Fu Ying's heart can be regarded as completely dead.

It's just that he had the heart to get close to her, so why should she hurt herself secretly.

Maybe before yesterday, she had always been excluded from the position of the palace master of the Hundred Flowers Palace, and she didn't want to sit on the throne of breaking off love.

But at this moment, she was relieved, maybe if she had the opportunity, she would have this qualification, and it would be a matter of immeasurable merit to become the new owner of the Hundred Flowers Palace.

At least, she didn't have to let another woman endure the pain of loneliness.

After Ji Chen hurried to the place where Huo Qingxin lived, he was told by the subordinates who were cleaning there that as early as half an hour ago, Wen Xun had already left with Huo Qingxin and Su Jianxiang.

It was only then that he figured out what Fu Ying was talking about, what the so-called happy result was.

Originally, he wanted to leave the Hundred Flowers Palace directly and chase after the people who left, but when he was about to step out of the gate of the Hundred Flowers Palace, a sentence that Huo Qingxin had said flashed in his mind.

'Being a man and doing everything must have a beginning and an end, which is responsible for oneself and an explanation of oneself'

Thinking of this, he cursed to himself, damn it!

The pace is back in the way! How could I think of this sentence at this time.

I had no choice but to go back and go to Fu Ying.

This time, he's going to fulfill what he's said.

Fu Ying's request yesterday was not excessive, she just wanted a chance to be alone with him.

Now that the matter has been resolved, how can he, a big man, be stingy with such a small request.

But when he came back to the courtyard where Fu Ying lived, Fu Ying was no longer there.

After looking around the palace, I also asked all the way, but no one knew where she went.

It wasn't until he came to the palace gate again full of doubts and was about to leave that the guards outside the palace gate told him that Fu Ying had left the palace.

As early as when Ji Chen went to the courtyard where Huo Qingxin lived, Fu Ying also went out.

When Ji Chen heard this, he thought about it for a while, and planned to go to the place where they said they would swim in the lake.

Mochou Lake is a well-known lake in this vicinity.

It is rumored that a long time ago, there was a woman named Mo Chou, who was born in a famous family, not only beautiful and moving, but also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

After she became an adult, there was an endless stream of people who went to her house to propose marriage.

However, it was such a woman with such a family background, appearance, and talent who were among the best in learning, but in the end she fell in love with a poor local scholar.

The first time the two met, it was on the edge of a lake.

So far, they have promised each other in private for life, and they swear by the mountains and seas!

In order to be with this scholar, Mo Chou pushed away all the nobles in the family who came to the match.

The scholar swore that when he won the test, it would be the time to marry Mo Chou.

Mo Chou was moved by his oath, in order to allow scholars to have better conditions to participate in the imperial examination, she always secretly sold her precious gestures in private, in exchange for silver taels to improve the lives of scholars.

When the scholar was going to the capital to catch the exam, he prepared enough entanglements for him.

Mo Chou's deep affection made the scholar feel ashamed of himself, and also strengthened his inner belief.

The day of the exam came soon, and the night before parting, the two complained to each other, and it was difficult to separate.

In order to allow scholars to take the exam with peace of mind, Mo Chou dedicated his innocent body to scholars.

But just after the scholar left and entered Beijing, Mo Chou's father found out that his daughter had been fooling around with a down-and-out scholar.

He couldn't get angry, so he locked up Mo Chou and forced her to marry a rich son.

Mo Chou refused, resisted desperately, and in the end there was really no way, and told her father that she was no longer complete.

For this reason, her father was so ashamed and angry that he not only beat her badly, but also imprisoned her in the firewood room.

It was also during the days when he was locked up in the firewood room that Mo Chou found out that she was pregnant.

While she was happy, she was also looking forward to her lover being able to go to high school and come back to marry her soon.

However, as time passed, she did not wait for the scholar, but waited for her father and a letter from the capital.

Seeing the content of the letter, Mo Chou is like five thunderbolts!

Originally, she thought that the scholar had never come, perhaps because he failed the imperial examination and did not have high school.

But the content of this letter is that the scholar is not only the top student in high school, but also favored by the prime minister of the current dynasty and became the prime minister's fast son-in-law!

And the scholar had already married the prime minister's daughter in the church half a month ago and became husband and wife.

Their wedding was presided over by the current emperor himself.

That posture, that scene, is so imposing!

It has always been talked about by the common people and passed on as a good story.

Mo Chou, who was in his hometown and had been suffering for many days, knew nothing.

After being locked up for several days, she was finally released.

However, her heart also died at this time. And the news that she was pregnant was also known to her father.

Her father really hated that iron could not become steel, so he ordered someone to prepare an abortion pill and forcibly poured it into Mo Chou.

Later, when she was still in confinement for a miscarriage, she hastily set up a family affair for her.

After so many scandalous things, her father promised her to a rich businessman from other places as a concubine.

And the rich merchant was much older than her father's.

This is the fate of women, and the reputation of broken flowers and willows is getting worse and worse in the local area.

Half a month after Mo Chou's miscarriage, she was forced to put on a wedding dress and was about to marry a rich old man.

And the reason why the rich businessman, after knowing Mo Chou's words, still decided to take her as a concubine is because...

Mo Chou's talent, appearance, can give the old man who is illiterate, but he is an old man on the rich side of Jinshan Yinshan, and he will pass on an excellent heir.

To put it bluntly, Mo Chou married in the past, just to pass on the lineage.

A person who was already a dead heart, on the day he was about to get married, secretly ran out of his home.

Dressed in a bright red wedding dress, she came to the lake where she and the scholar first met.

Sitting by the lake, she sang softly, it was a Jiangnan tune, and scholars usually love to hear her sing this tune.

Today, she wore a wedding dress and sang again.

It's just that the tune was not finished, and Mo Chou was already in tears, and slowly walked towards the lake.

Until the lake submerged her body, and it was above her head, and the song was still singing back and forth by the lake.

Don't worry, just like that...

With a heart full of desolation, and love and hatred for the scholar, I went to find her child who would be born in the future.

From then on, whenever someone passed by the lake, they would faintly hear the sound of a woman singing from the lake.

People say that it is Mo Chou singing.

After word of mouth, this lake was called by the local people, Mochou Lake...

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

Fu Ying was a little melancholy, staring at the calm and waveless lake, thinking of the poignant love and hatred of the ancient period in her mind.

She felt sorry for Mo Chou, and it was not worth it.

Why, when it comes to the love between men and women, it is always women who are hurt.

She wanted to know that the scholar who had lost Mo Chou had dreamed of the woman who had been waiting for him when he dreamed back at midnight.

Love is indeed the most hurtful and intangible thing in this world.

Just as she was sighing infinitely, at this moment, from the other side of the lake, a small boat floated in the distance.

Fu Ying thought she was dazzled, rubbed her eyes, and looked again!

It was indeed a small boat, rowing towards her.

Thinking of the rumor she had been recalling just now, Fu Ying couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

When she saw the man standing at the bow of the boat, her heart not only beat harder, but also became more and more nervous...
