When the carriage returned to the Zhenguo Mansion, it was already the middle of the night.

There was silence in the garden.

Linglong in the main house was still keeping vigil, and she didn't fall asleep because she was fighting her spirits, and when she saw Du Wei coming back, she hurriedly stepped forward to serve.

The flower window is open, and the wind of the summer night blows in the face, beating on the face warmly, with the fragrance of the flowers in the garden.

After washing, Du Wei stood in front of the window and took a deep breath, her whole body seemed to be immersed in the fragrance of flowers, the stars were shining at night, embedded in the dark blue sky, she couldn't help but think of the eyes of the wind and twilight, and they were as deep as this, making it impossible to see what was at the end of the darkness.

There was a faint sound of drums.

When Feng Duhan came out of the clean room, he saw that she was still standing in front of the window, and urged: "I'm tired all night, let's rest early." ”

Du Wei remembered what happened at night, but at this time she didn't even feel sleepy at all.

There was still an hour before dawn, and when the wind and twilight were cold, she had to leave the house to see off the king, so she had to go to bed, nestled under the quilt and stared at the tent above her head.

"What are you thinking?" Twilight lay down close to her, and naturally reached out and took her into his arms.

"It......'s nothing," she said perfunctorily, suddenly as if she remembered something, and turned to face him, her dark eyes shining in the candlelight, "Can you tell me about the crown princess?" ”

Twilight looked at her calmly, and with her free hand tucked away the broken hair that fell from her sideburns, "What do you want to know?" ”

"Everything, I want to know about her." She has long been interested in the identity of the crown princess, but as the crown princess, she has repeatedly secretly helped her as an 'outsider', and even joined forces with her to get rid of the prince's children...... No matter how you look at it, this is not normal behavior either.

"The crown princess came from a family of military generals, her father was a first-class old general, and I spent a year under him before I became a general," Feng Duhan's tone was dark, and there was no emotional fluctuation in his eyes, as if he was just talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

"It was ......" Du Wei immediately grabbed the key words of the sentence.

The hand that Feng Duhan hugged her shoulder tightened unconsciously, "Once the enemy 100,000 troops besieged the city, someone secretly withheld the battle report, causing the reinforcements to be delayed, and when they arrived, the old general's 100,000 troops were all killed, the enemy slaughtered the city, the corpses piled up, and it took a month to clean up, and the reinforcements finally only brought back the generals in good clothes......"

Even the corpses were not left behind.

Du Wei unconsciously tensed her body, she went to the Tiger Prison, so you can imagine the tragedy at that time.

"At that time, it was the most powerful young general around the old general who sent the war report back, he rode out of the encirclement alone, and only sent the war report out of his life, but he was charged with 'delaying the fighter', and was dealt with by military law, and his head was hung above the city tower."

Du Wei only felt that her breath was stagnant.

"That young general has a fiancée, and he was going to marry her after the victory, and he didn't want to ......."

"His fiancée is ......"

"It's the current crown princess."

Inside the tent, there was a brief silence.

"Later, did you find out who secretly withheld the war report?" Du Wei asked, in fact, at this time, she already had the answer in her heart.

Feng Duhan's thin lips provoked a cold smile, "Naturally, it can't be detected, but someone can benefit from it and marry the daughter of the old general, which won the support of most of the generals in the court at that time." ”

So that's it...... No wonder the crown princess has so much hatred and resentment buried deep in her heart.

Knowing that the enemy was in front of her, she killed her father and lover, but there was no way to avenge them, and she had to force a smile on her face, facing him every day and night, and currying favor with him.

"That's why you're helping the King of England seize power, aren't you?" Now she finally figured out that if the crown prince finally gained power, she was afraid that they would all die without a place to be buried, and it would be better to help the British king, who had some friendship with them, to ascend to the throne, and then she could protect herself.

Twilight lowered his head and left a light kiss on her forehead, in fact, every time he thought of these things before, his heart was far from being as calm as it seemed, but he was good at forbearance, so others didn't know.

But today, when he put his arms around her and clearly felt her body tense and stiff, he finally realized that it was all in the past.

What he has now and wants to cherish is the petite person in his arms, who is drawn by her every move, which warms his heart.

In front of her, his disguise will always be seen through by her, she is also good at disguise, sometimes showing a docile and well-behaved appearance, but if you provoke her, she will instantly turn into a fried-up little fox.

Every time he thought of her appearance, he couldn't help but smile.

"Sleep, it's going to be dawn in a moment." He urged.

Du Wei mumbled and buried her face in his chest to prevent the candlelight from the table from shining on her face.

With a flick of one finger in the air, the candle flame was extinguished instantly, and the sound of steady breathing gradually sounded in the tent.

Summer nights, comfortable and quiet.

I don't know how long it took, Du Wei was sleeping soundly, and faintly heard the sound of clothes around her.

Sleepy-eyed opened her eyes, but saw that Feng Duhan had already gotten up, and saw her wake up and whispered: "It's still early, you can sleep again." ”

She knew that he was going to see the King of England on the expedition, so she let out a "hmm" and shrunk back into the thin quilt, "Be careful on the road." ”

In the dim light, Feng Duhan smiled silently, quickly dressed and left the main room.

When Du Wei opened her eyes again, it was past noon.

She stretched her waist and sat up, her heart was happy, glad that she didn't have to work as hard as other women in the house every day, she had to settle down every day in the morning and dusk, and she had to set rules in front of her mother-in-law.

Sleep until you wake up naturally, count the money until your hands cramp.

At the beginning, her only two big dreams when she was a small white-collar worker have come true, and she is now a veritable little rich woman with Youlan Pavilion.

Suddenly, she remembered what Feng Duhan had said to her in the carriage last night, that the North believed in saints, and even their kings had to be respectful to saints.

If one day this guy dares to betray her again, she will run over there, be a saint, and be a saint, and it is not bad to be addicted to being a god.

The villain in her heart fantasized wildly, and Du Wei lazily went to the garden to enjoy her "breakfast" after freshening up.

In the garden, the summer breeze blows, and the lotus flowers in the lotus pond bear sharp buds.

After eating, she drank the flower tea slowly, and suddenly, a male voice came from behind her: "The princess is really interested." ”

Yu'er, who was waiting beside Du Wei, was taken aback, her face was frightened, and even the tea set in her hand almost fell to the ground.

"Don't be afraid." Du Wei comforted Yu'er without looking back.

"But...... But Miss, he'...... He's ......" Yu'er stammered.

Behind Du Wei, I don't know when a young man in colorful clothes appeared, wearing clogs tied with red ropes at his feet, and his long hair was draped casually, showing his unruliness, on his back, carrying a pair of double knives, and the handle of the knife was tied with colorful tassels, slightly fluttering in the wind.

This man's face, Yu'er will never forget. On that day, it was he who hijacked the carriage of the Zhenguo Mansion and caused the princess to be arrested.
