Chapter Seventy-Three: Confessing the Truth
"I, I, I......" Wan Bingyu's face suddenly turned red from the top of her head to the root of her neck, and she stammered and didn't know how to explain, but she really couldn't bear to deceive Heng Xinyuan, "Actually, after taking this fruit, it can have the effect of attracting hundreds of beasts...... I secretly let the Seventh Prince drink it, also so that he can get good grades......"
Heng Xinyuan slowly put down her hand, paced around the room and walked around the room, and finally returned to the chair and sat down, her eyes flickered, and she said after a while, "You know, I'm not talking about this, Bingyu, you and I are husband and wife, I hope you don't lie to me no matter when and what, because I ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you......"
Wan Bingyu's heart suddenly became sore, tears soaked her eyes, she mustered up her courage, walked to Heng Xinyuan step by step, slowly squatted down, held his hand, and said tentatively, "Actually, I ...... I didn't mean to hide it from you...... It's just, I just don't know how to speak......"
"Why?"
"Because I'm ...... I am indeed not your former wife......" she paused and continued, "or rather, I am your wife's reborn ......"
"Reborn?" Heng Xinyuan's eyes widened, after all, this word was really difficult for him to understand, "You mean, reincarnation?" ”
"It's not ......," Wan Bingyu scratched her hair, not knowing how to explain, "I'm from the 21st century...... Of course, you have to ask what is the 21st century...... It is a very developed, very advanced, very high-tech era, in our place, you don't need to ride a horse and a sedan chair when you go out, and the streets are full of high-rise buildings......"
The more Wan Bingyu explained, the more he felt that his husband was looking at him like a fool, so he swallowed the pile of words explaining modern civilization back into his stomach, leaving only one sentence, "It's always ...... I traveled back in time, and I crossed over to your lady's body......"
The last sentence, Heng Xinyuan vaguely understood, but the expression on his face was still very shocked, after all, his wife suddenly changed from a crazy and stupid country woman to a crossing woman with stunts, and everyone would feel that they were dreaming.
"My lady's body? Why? ”
"How do I know, maybe it's fate? In short, as soon as I opened my eyes, it became like this......" Wan Bingyu helplessly spread his hands.
"So the fruit of the past, and the ...... of today It's all ...... Did you cross over? Heng Xinyuan calmed down his emotions and recovered his sanity a little.
"Well, that's the ......." She took out the wooden card from her sleeve and showed it to Heng Xinyuan, "This wooden card will conjure up many strange fruits, as for what it does, you have to find out for yourself, the fruit that cures all diseases in vain before, and the fruit that attracts hundreds of beasts today, are all conjured by it......"
Heng Xinyuan took the wooden card, looked at it carefully for a long time, slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and frowned.
"So, is there anything else you'd like to ask?" Wan Bingyu looked into his eyes.
After being stunned for a long time, Fang slowly asked, "Then you...... Will you go back...... Back to the 21st century? ”
Wan Bingyu couldn't help but burst into tears, she thought that her husband would ask some questions, but she didn't expect that the only thing he cared about was whether he would wear it back.
"Well, I don't think so, after all, I'm dead in the 21st century...... Crossing back, is it difficult to cheat the corpse? She thought seriously for a while, and was suddenly embraced by Heng Xinyuan, and only heard his soft and eager voice in her ears, "No matter where you come from, you will be my lady in the future, so ...... If you don't leave me......"
Wan Bingyu smiled, hugged his neck tightly, and replied firmly, "Okay, I won't leave." ”
Xu is hunting day wind is indeed a little cold, even the emperor just returned to the palace was infected with the wind cold, stopped for two days in the morning to raise in bed, in order to avoid the noise of the concubines, the queen ordered that except for the imperial doctor and himself to stay and serve the sick, no one is allowed to go to the Qingxin Palace, disturbing the emperor's recuperation.
The concubines were all idle, and even the daily greetings were saved.
In the Wuning Palace, Concubine Wu was joking with Concubine Xiang, and accidentally talked about the performance of the princes on the hunting ground.
"Concubine Wu, according to the concubine, in terms of intelligence, the sixteenth prince is the best, but he was born behind the prince, otherwise...... I don't know whose position it is. "Concubine Xiang has a low status in the harem, and her mother's family is not prominent, so she can only follow Concubine Wu every day and firmly grasp this big tree.
When Concubine Wu heard this, she was very happy in her heart, and chuckled while peeling the walnuts in her hand, "Of course, but this prince was born to the queen, and the queen has served the emperor for so many years, I don't complain about anything, but this Concubine Shu hates me so much that my teeth itch!" ”
"Yes, yes, the concubine also wondered, why did this Concubine Shu and the Seventh Prince suddenly pop up, no one took her in her eyes before, I heard that yesterday the emperor specially summoned her to the Qingxin Palace to serve the sick, such a good thing, why did it take her turn." Concubine Xiang inadvertently fanned the wind, lit a fire, and hooked the resentment in Concubine Wu's heart in a few words.
She sneered twice and threw the walnuts in her hand back on the plate, "Isn't it just Concubine Shu?" Even if the emperor sees her for her pitiful sake and gives her the position of concubine, isn't she still a lowly maid from a humble family? Can I still be afraid of her! ”
After that, I suddenly thought about it, thinking that the emperor was recuperating in the past few days, and the queen had no time to manage the harem, so I just took this opportunity to establish her authority, and in the future, she would be spoiled and spoiled, and stepped on her head.
"Jiao Xing! Go, invite Concubine Shu here! Concubine Wu smiled coldly.
Jiao Xing received the order and went to Luoning Palace, where Concubine Shu was embroidering bed clothes for the emperor.
"The slave maid asks Concubine Shu to say goodbye, and our mother invites you to go to Wuning Palace." Jiao Xing said.
Concubine Shu was puzzled, she had no contact with Wu Ning Palace, why did she invite herself over today, but this Wu Concubine's status in the harem was deep-rooted, and even the queen sometimes had to let her have a few points, and she was not easy to refuse.
I had to pack up the needle and thread and follow Jiao Xing to Wuning Palace.
When passing by the pear orchard, I happened to meet Min Yue who was hanging out with the maid, because of the last refusal of Ye Qin's courtship, her relationship with the Seventh Prince became more and more familiar, and she would go to Luoning Hall to play chess with Concubine Shu if she had nothing to do, and now seeing that she was walking with Concubine Wu's maidservant, she couldn't help but have some doubts.
"Shu Niangniang, where are you going?" She asked, jumping forward.
Concubine Shu smiled faintly, "Concubine Wu has something to look for me, and she is about to go to Wuying Palace." ”
"Then when will Shu Niangniang come back? Minyue still wants to eat the osmanthus crisp you made. Min Yue looked at Jiao Xing's strange look on the side, and knew that their master and servant must not be well-intentioned.
Sure enough, this Jiao Xing took two steps forward, and saluted without smiling, "Princess Minyue, our mother is still waiting in the palace, and your osmanthus crisp is going to be another day." ”
