There is still the honor of not worshipping the old emperor in the court, how can he afford his greetings?

Su Wan stood up from the chair, walked to the door in person and saluted in a shallow manner, and said modestly: "The old general, please get up quickly, the juniors can't afford your big gift." ”

When General Fu saw Su Wan walking up to him, he suddenly raised his head.

Su Wan was shocked by this sudden action, and when she saw Old General Fu's eyes clearly, she felt even more puzzled and surprised.

It was a pair of eyes as sharp as a falcon, as if it could see through the inside and soul of a person at once, and spread out the cocoon of a person in the line of sight, examining every texture and exploring every unbearable.

Such a gaze is undoubtedly full of hostility, but it is well controlled by the owner of the eye, cold and not reckless, mocking but not direct.

From General Fu's point of view, this was the first time he had seen Su Wan with his own eyes. I have to say that this is indeed a lady with a bright appearance and elegant temperament, looking like a fairy concubine, with an unpredictable bookish atmosphere and a faint alienation atmosphere. It's really hard for such people to associate with those dirty and dirty things.

It's really golden, and it's ruined!

After a few seconds, the gloom in General Fu's eyes was swept away, and he changed his eyes to a gentle and kind gaze, and slowly got up and said, "I have admired the princess's name for a long time, and I hope to forgive the old minister for not coming to visit in the first place." ”

Su Wan's mood was a little complicated, and he hadn't completely recovered from the shock in his eyes, so he said slowly: "The old general doesn't have to be formal, this is also Yanran's home, so you can naturally visit at will." ”

At this moment, Su Wan had to believe Qing Wan's previous inference, General Fu must have heard what Fu Yanran said about himself, and still regarded himself as an enemy.

Even so, Su Wan would not treat this old man with a harsh attitude. After all, she does her best to obey the destiny of heaven, she just needs to do what is in line with her own heart, and the rest will be left to the old general to consider the truth or falsehood.

"Yanran has a stubborn temperament and neglects the rules, which must have added a lot of trouble to you, princess." Old General Fu smiled faintly, as if he was playing with a confidant.

"That's not true, I'm not a strict person, Concubine Bingxue is smart, so naturally it won't cause me trouble." Su Wan gave way and said, "Why is the old general standing and talking outside, why don't you come in and sit down, I'll ask Qingyun to make you a pot of tea." ”

"Don't bother." Old General Fu smiled and waved his hand, and said, "I will ride my horse to the ancestral hall of the ancestral temple on the outskirts of the city later, and assist King Chen to complete the marching safety plan of the sacrificial ceremony." ”

"I see." Su Wan didn't force it, and at the same time understood the main purpose of General Fu's return this time, and said: "The old general has a hard journey, I will send you some thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and personal body to take away, and replenish your body." ”

"Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng are trivial matters, and the old minister still has something to worry about the princess." Old General Fu stared at Su Wan's face and said with a smile: "The old minister wants to take Yanran away with her, and let her go to the ancestral hall to fast for a while. ”

These words greatly exceeded Su Wan's expectations, she looked at General Fu hesitantly, frowned and said, "If Concubine Fang accompanies her this time, I'm afraid it will be a little inappropriate." After all, the ancestors had a rule that the female dependents of the festival could not visit freely. ”

"The princess is too worried, Yanran didn't go to the prince, she herself needs to practice for a while." Old General Fu had already expected Su Wan to refuse like this, so he continued: "After all, she has just lost her first child, and she needs to recite scriptures and pray for blessings in the Daxiong Treasure Hall for half a month, so that this child can ascend to the land of bliss as soon as possible. ”

When Su Wan heard this, she couldn't help but slide down the black line on her head, it seems that Fu Yanran really saw everyone say that she caused her to lose her child, Fang Zheng relied on Xiao Mochen's amnesia, so he let him be a father so much?

Such a childish act is really pitiful. But sadly, it seems that most people will buy her account, such as the patriotic general in front of her who deliberately spoke like this to test her reactions.

"So...... It's okay too. Su Wan blinked, and didn't say much, so she could only simply agree.

Old General Fu was a little surprised, he thought that he could see the frightened and weak expression on Su Wan's face, but he didn't get to her first to be so calm and so quick to agree.

"Although the ancestral hall of the temple has been closed to the outside world because of the sacrificial ceremony, it no longer accepts pilgrims." Su Wan smiled, turned around and went back to the room, took a small token from the table and handed it to General Fu, and said, "But Yanran is a member of the royal family after all, let her go with my papers, there should be no one to hinder her." ”

In the imperial legal system, Wen Mu is something that only noble princes and generals can have, and only the wife of the female family in the palace can have one.

After all, the sacrificial ceremony is approaching, and the ancestral hall of the temple is the time of the great blessing, and most people think that if they can enter the temple to pray for blessings at this time, they will be able to make their wishes come true.

Old General Fu lifted the weighty document in his hand, and looked at Su Wan with a complicated expression, not knowing for a moment what the meaning of her actions was. It stands to reason that she shouldn't have been so cooperative.

The originally prepared rebuttal could only be swallowed back into his stomach, and General Fu gave a salute and said loudly: "Thank you, princess." ”

"It's not too early, you still have to hurry, let's act early." Su Wan smiled faintly and said to Qing Wan on the side: "Since the side concubine is leaving the palace, you should go to the treasury and get some more precious medicinal materials for her to bring, so that she can replenish her body in the temple." ”

"Yes." Qing Wan replied softly, and hurriedly left with his head down and broken steps.

"Then the old minister will not disturb the princess's rest, and will leave." Old General Fu took one last look at Su Wan, then turned around and disappeared into the boundless night after Qing Wan.

"Since General Fu has also gone, Xiao Mochen should be able to relax a little more." Su Wan leaned lazily against the door, looked up at the waning moon hanging in the sky, and said thoughtlessly.

Walking hurriedly on the way to find Fu Yanran, the expression on General Fu's face was not relaxed, his brows were tightly locked, and he pursed his lips and looked ahead.

Why was Su Wan able to talk to him so calmly? It seems that there is no guilt in my heart at all, and it seems that I am not the author of all this.

and Su Wan's natural alienated temperament, as if she has seen through the gains and losses of the world, and all the complicated and ugly things in the world have nothing to do with her.

When General Fu deliberately looked directly into Su Wan's eyes at close range, he saw that her eyes were crystal clear, frank and generous, without any panic and discord.

Would such a woman really do such a cruel and inhumane ugly thing?

For the first time in his life, General Fu had doubts about his judgment. In terms of his life experience, he can see a person's heart at a glance, but this time he can't make up his mind about Su Wan.

"Grandpa, you're finally back."

Fu Yanran had been guarding in front of the door, and when she saw the old general Fu coming back from a distance, she hurriedly stepped up and asked eagerly: "What did Su Wan say, did she embarrass you?" ”

Fu Yanran's interrogation was carefully designed, and she deliberately asked Fu Lao General Su Wan if he had embarrassed him, in order to create an image of Su Wan always flying and domineering in the palace. Let's ask, even if Su Wan doesn't wait to see Fu Yanran, how can he be stupid enough to show face to General Weiguo?

Old General Fu was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Fu Yanran to ask such a question, and then saw her standing under the lamp, her eyes were full of tears, and a weak posture of a weak willow supporting the wind touched the old man's loving heart.

This is his only granddaughter, and the only person in this world who is connected to him by blood, how can he trust an outsider and not believe in his heart that he has cared for since he was a child?

For a moment, the doubts in General Fu's heart vanished, and he took Fu Yanran's hand and said, "Everything is arranged, you will immediately follow me to the ancestral hall of the ancestral temple." ”

"Okay." Fu Yanran's face ignited with joy, as long as she could see Xiao Mochen, she could do whatever she wanted!

The moonlight flickered and dimmed, reflecting the figures of the people in the palace, casting deep or shallow shadows on them, and leaving simple or complex mysteries.

The next day, the sun was shining.

Xiao Mochen, as usual, finished washing early in the morning light, and walked out of his meditation room in plain clothes.

"King Chen's blessings." The long-awaited old general Fu stood under the locust tree in front of the door, and when he saw Xiao Mochen walking out, he stood up with a smile and said hello.

Xiao Mochen was stunned for a moment, although he had already learned that General Fu would come over to prepare security issues with him, but he didn't expect that he would wait outside the house tirelessly, so he immediately humbly said with a courtesy: "The general is polite, and the juniors are not welcome." ”

Old General Fu raised his head with a smile, and said with a kind gaze: "I haven't seen you recently, but King Chen is becoming more and more talented, and he is in good spirits!" ”

"The general has won the prize." Xiao Mochen said lukewarmly, and then slightly widened the distance between himself and General Fu, and said: "It's not too early, I need to go to the morning with the monks to chant the scriptures, and I won't talk to you more." ”

Old General Fu looked at Xiao Mochen and was about to leave, and suddenly said: "King Chen doesn't have to have a guilty conscience, you and Yanran are still young, and they will definitely have another child soon." ”

Old General Fu deliberately spoke like this, just to test Xiao Mochen's reaction, he didn't believe that this young man would be untouched.

Xiao Mochen paused, but did not turn around, but said lightly: "Borrow your auspicious words." Then he walked away.

Such an attitude is really confusing, and it is impossible to see whether he is sad and upset about this, nor can it be seen that he is ignoring it.

Staring at the back of Xiao Mochen leaving, Old General Fu furrowed his eyebrows tightly, and the doubts in his heart became deeper and deeper.

However, Xiao Mochen is calm and light on the surface, but his mood at the moment is really a little complicated. In fact, he is still not completely convinced of Fu Yanran's claim that he is pregnant, and the subsequent slippery tire is too strange, since Caifeng has gone wrong, there must be an invisible dark force at work.

The reason why Xiao Mochen ordered not to mention this matter again, and went to the temple to meditate alone, was to take this opportunity to get out of the disturbing environment and take a good look at his thoughts.

On the high platform of the temple, there was a pair of cold ink-black eyes, which were firmly locked on Xiao Mochen's body. The bronzing folding fan in his hand is slightly open and elegantly placed on his chest, as if he is a person walking down from the painting.

In today's empire, on the surface, it is as calm and leisurely as in this temple, but in the depths, there is an undercurrent. All kinds of forces, whether inside the royal family or the outside world, are all fighting each other for their own interests, and as long as they find an opportunity, it will inevitably cause the most tragic struggle.

After such an unhappy experience, Fu Yanran naturally had no interest in going to the temple to chant and pray for blessings, so she walked around the temple with a depressed mood.

The temple at the time of the Qing Dynasty was solemn and solemn, and the shadow of the monk was rarely seen. Fu Yanran, who was wearing a blue dress, wandered among them, and became the only bright color in the temple. But she didn't dare to mess around, for fear that she would accidentally displease Xiao Mochen again.

When she stopped walking, Fu Yanran was a little tired, and there was no place to rest around, so she slammed the wall on the side with some annoyance, and muttered: "You have to bully me everywhere!" Even this ruined temple has to make me angry! ”

"What's wrong with the temple, it wasn't originally designed for a noble person like you."

A joking voice sounded from behind, Fu Yanran was stunned, and quickly looked back, only to meet a pair of shining bright eyes.

The bright sunlight shone on the man's face without hesitation, setting him off like a miracle, making people unable to take their eyes off, that outstanding temperament, such an elegant and refined appearance, really makes people feel extremely familiar.

Fu Yanran subconsciously saw him as Xiao Mochen, and immediately stepped forward to greet him a few steps, with a look of joy on her face. She also thought that Xiao Mochen knew that Fang had just been indifferent to herself, and she came to appease her.

Who knows, after Fu Yanran took a few steps forward, she saw clearly that the person who came was not Xiao Mochen, but a stranger with a somewhat similar appearance and temperament to him, with a different playful smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Who are you!" Fu Yanran stopped her steps, looked at the visitor very vigilantly and asked. The appearance of such a person inevitably made her feel a little flustered. Looking around, there was no sign of people, which made her heart sink a little.

Ye Ziyu smiled faintly, tilted his head and said, "You don't even know who I am?" ”

He seemed to be very curious, that is, the woman in front of him, who looked a little stupid, successfully calculated Su Wan's head?

"How do I know? If you don't say anything, I'll call the guards!" Fu Yanran looked at him hesitantly, and subconsciously took a step back and said. She could see that she was no match for the person in front of her.

Ye Ziyu restrained her smile, looked at Fu Yanran's uneasy appearance, and said the answer she had prepared: "I am the second prince." ”
