Text Chapter 21: The Entanglement of Qing Feixue
Lian Cheng and Bai Qi flashed in, their faces were sad and solemn, Lian Cheng walked over slowly, took Yan Motong's hand, and couldn't help crying.
Hearing the cry, he stood at the door in a daze, watching Yan Moyu trying his best to restrain his emotions, his sad eyes were covered with a trace of mist, and he felt a little sad in his heart.
Sleepless all night, as soon as the day dawned, Bai Qi notified the entire Huofeng country, the whole country to bear the funeral, exempt from three days, take care of the affairs of all parties, seven days later, the royal daughter Yan Motong was buried in the mausoleum of Xianyue Mountain, Liancheng petitioned to guard the mausoleum for life, Bai Qi transferred all his love for Yan Motong to the two babies, and did his best to raise the two princesses.
The death of the royal daughter Yan Motong was not accepted by the subjects of the entire Huofeng Kingdom for a while, such a young life, everything happened too suddenly, and the streets and alleys were speculating about the real reason for the death, and there were many versions, all of which were made up by some storytellers.
Under the witness of the Grand Priest Tan Li, Bai Qi temporarily handled all daily government affairs on behalf of the new princess, and major state affairs were discussed by Qi Hou Bai Qi, the Great Sacrifice Tan Li, Kang Wang Yan Mo Yu, the general Hou Nangong Yuan, and the Prime Minister Bai Lu.
King Kang's Mansion, after Yan Moyu came back from the mausoleum of Xianyue Mountain, he locked himself in the study for a whole day, he needed time to sort out his emotions, and also made a break for some emotions that could not be humane to outsiders in the past, he was born as a royal family is destined to have some unavoidable responsibilities, and he already has a loved one to protect.
Just after this day, the wind and the sun were beautiful, and Steward Luo led the big priest into the garden in the backyard of King Kang's mansion, and saw Yan Moyu teasing Princess Xiao Yue'er in the pavilion from a distance, and the princess was half-leaning on the rocking chair on the side to make a female red, and from time to time there was the sound of baby giggles.
"Lord Wang, the great sacrifice is here...", Steward Luo announced under the pavilion.
"See, you go down", Yan Moyu handed Xiao Yue'er back to Qing Feixue, smiled and looked at Yan Li, who was dressed in a white robe, and said, "You are here, sit down", said that he also sat down and poured a cup of fragrant tea for Yan Li.
"You're very comfortable", Zhan Li said teasingly, "Tell me something", after speaking, a cup of fragrant tea has moistened his throat.
"Xiao Yue'er will be full moon in a few days, and I plan to worship you as my father-in-law during the full moon ceremony."
When he heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then saw Qing Feixue holding the child in his arms on the side.
"Great Priest, this matter, the prince has already discussed with me, and I also think it is very good", Qing Feixue said unhurriedly, and retracted her gaze to the child.
"This...", he didn't know what to say.
"Leave, don't you agree"?
"You've already thought it through, can I disagree"?
"Well, let's prepare it then."
After the two of them drank tea for another round, the wind was a little windy, and Yan Moyu asked the maid to send Qing Feixue and the child back to the dormitory, and he and Yan Li went back to the study.
"Li, I've already got the map of Wuji Valley", Yan Moyu turned his head to leave as soon as he entered the study.
"What, you've got the original"?
"Yes", Yan Moyu walked to the bookcase, took out a dark red kraft book from the dark compartment under the bookcase, and handed it over.
Yu Li hurriedly opened it to check, "Sure enough, it is the original, and it has been preserved so well for hundreds of years."
"Of course, it was sealed by water and placed in the ice under the Wuji Peak Cold Pool", Yan Moyu glanced at Yan Li's surprised eyes, and continued: "I will leave it to you to keep, I have already asked Teng to copy a copy."
"Okay...", after reading a few pages, he suddenly thought of something, and said, "Then you...".
"I want to take Xue'er to Wuji Valley as soon as possible", Yan Moyu frowned slightly, thoughtful.
Qing Feixue walked in the garden with Xiao Yue'er in her arms, and saw that a fan-shaped flower stand on the side of the garden was crawling with all kinds of faces, and clusters were competing to open, which was very good-looking, so she called the maid to move over.
"The princess is like this, how can she be worthy of our prince."
"I heard that the princess is just a woman from the rivers and lakes, and she is a person from Wujimen."
"Don't you see, the princess's silver hair and red eyes that day scared people to death."
"Our prince has not even had a close service girl in the side room all these years, let alone marrying a side room."
"That was before, not necessarily after."
Qing Feixue listened under the willow tree not far from the flower stand, the hand holding Xiao Yue'er trembled a little, some white lips had been bitten out by Haofang, Yin Hong, her little face was also whiter, and her breathing was a little unsteady.
The maidservant on the side noticed the change in her and called softly: "Princess...".
Qing Feixue glanced at the maidservant, a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes, and she turned around and said, "I'm tired, go back."
Qing Feixue felt that it was a long time to return to the dormitory, and every step was extremely heavy, and those words were like a boulder weighing down, but they were all the truth, in fact, she also cared about it, but she was gently and thoughtfully cared for by Yan Moyu, and was arranged to choose all kinds of food and clothing for Xiao Yue'er, so that she didn't have time to think about it.
"Princess, don't listen to their nonsense, the prince is so good to you, he will never marry a side concubine again", the maid behind him wanted to say something to comfort the master's mood, but her mouth was too stupid, which pot was not opened.
When Qing Feixue heard this, her heart trembled, she could still pretend not to care about the words of the people, but Yan Moyu's thoughts, she really couldn't help but care, she couldn't help frowning, so uncomfortable.
"Princess, it's here", the maid reminded Qing Feixue that she had arrived at the dormitory, as soon as she entered the dormitory, the nurse greeted her, Qing Feixue handed the child to the nurse, walked towards the bedroom by herself, insisted on the bedside, and planted an unstable one.
"Princess...", the maidservant exclaimed, helped the general up, and called someone to find Yan Moyu.
Yan Moyu heard that Qing Feixue had fainted and rushed back to the dormitory.
Qing Feixue felt a trace of heat seeping into her body, and instantly became a little lighter than before, the warmth was getting thicker and thicker, and she slowly gained some strength, and she looked at the familiar face with a look of concern when she opened her eyes.
"Mo Yu...".
"Cher, are you feeling better"?
"Well, it's much better".
Yan Moyu helped Qing Feixue to sit up, and took the decoction in the hands of the attendants on the side, "Xue'er, drink it while it's hot."
"Hmm", Qing Feixue finished drinking very cooperatively, staring at Yan Moyu with both eyes, she had something to ask in her heart, but she didn't know where to start, she was already in love with herself, and she was still not satisfied, what else could she ask for?
"What's wrong, Cher, why do you look at me like that"?
"Nothing, just... I want to remember what you look like".
"Okay, look, remember", Yan Moyu said and began to joke.
The two whispered something again, Qing Feixue's face was dyed with a blush, and some of her daughter's shyness.
"Okay, Cher, take a good rest, I'm here with you."
After a while, Qing Feixue fell asleep peacefully, Yan Moyu came out of the inner room, and called the maid who followed Qing Feixue out to ask: "Say... Did you know what happened, if you hide it, you know the consequences", a few simple sentences are very majestic, so that people dare not deceive.
"Back to the prince, the princess listened to some gossip in the garden, so..."
"Well, I know, let's go down", Yan Moyu already knew what was going on as soon as he heard it, and he heard some gossip or something, but he didn't have anything, he was afraid that Qing Feixue would hear it, but after all, he still listened to it, and he really regretted that he should have dealt with those gossiping people in the first place.
In the study, Yan Moyu's face was pale, and he didn't listen to the persuasion of Steward Luo, and insisted on letting him pick a few people who were necessary for daily life to stay, and the rest of the people would be sent back after Xiao Yue'er's full moon, asking not to make a noise and handle it safely. Helpless, Steward Luo couldn't resist Yan Moyu, so he had to agree to do so.
Qing Feixue has stopped going out since that day, and has become more attentive to Xiao Yue'er, always taking Xiao Yue'er with her, and no longer asking too much about Yan Moyu's whereabouts.
Yan Moyu instructed Steward Luo to prepare Xiao Yue'er's full moon ceremony, emphasizing that there was no need to do big things, and it was best to keep it simple, while arranging for the personal guards Tie Long and Feng Ying to start preparing for going to Wuji Valley.
It was almost noon, Yan Moyu returned to the dormitory, saw Qing Feixue holding Xiao Yue'er in a daze, and put her hands on her shoulders after approaching, she came back to her senses, glanced at Yan Moyu with some surprise, and said with a sharp sinking of her eyes: "Mo Yu, I remember that the fourth lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion has not married yet, and she has always been interested in you, I think you should consider it...".
"Xue'er", Yan Moyu knew what Qing Feixue wanted to say as soon as she heard it, and immediately interrupted her, "I only need you, no matter what you become, in my place, you are the most beautiful...", Yan Moyu looked at Qing Feixue affectionately, seeing that she still had a faint sadness on her face, she really didn't know what to do, but she was really afraid that she would do something, so she thought about it and said: "Xue'er... Don't think about it, and don't think about finding me another woman, or I'll be angry."
Qing Feixue only said that he was comforting himself, but the latter sentence showed his attitude, maybe he was really troubled, so he stopped thinking about him, but he was still very entangled in his heart.
Yan Moyu originally wanted to talk to Qing Feixue about taking her to Wuji Valley to heal her injuries, but it seemed that there would be no way to say it, so she had to find another opportunity.
On this day, Yan Moyu entered the palace, Bai Qi discussed with the two of them, and the full moon festival of the two princesses Feng Yi and Feng Yuan had been almost prepared, so it was just right for the full moon festival of Princess Ziyue to do it together. Yan Moyu didn't care about postponing it for a day, but he just wanted to do it a little bit, on the one hand, he didn't want Xiao Yue'er to be noticed by too many people, and on the other hand, he also wanted to refuse considering Qing Feixue's situation, "Thank you Qihou for your good intentions, but Xiao Yue'er's full moon festival shouldn't be done together."
"Why is that"? Bai Qi really couldn't understand why Yan Moyu refused.
Yan Moyu couldn't find a real reason, but he still insisted on what he meant.
Yan Li naturally understands Yan Moyu's thoughts, but there is another layer of consideration, if she is not an illusion that day, Xiao Yue'er may be the woman in the omen, then she has the need to inherit the throne, then her identity as a princess must be summoned to the world, and the name is right.
"I also agree with Qihou's suggestion, it is very appropriate for the three princesses to hold a full moon festival together," said Yu Li seriously.
