The old housekeeper invited Wan Zhen'er in, and Wan Zhen'er walked in dressed as a man and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the old housekeeper's eyes to be so good, and the old housekeeper was also seen by the old housekeeper in men's clothes today." ”

The old housekeeper didn't have a good impression of Wan Zhen'er in his heart, he felt that Wan Zhen'er was too arrogant, so he snorted silently and went down, not even serving tea.

Yu Mian didn't know what kind of medicine Wan Zhen'er was selling in the gourd this time, and he had always felt a little sorry for his mother for driving Wan Zhen'er away before, but the last time Wan Zhen'er came to insult Mrs. Zhang, it made him feel very resentful.

So when he saw Wan Zhen'er, he raised his eyes and said, "Concubine Wan doesn't know what advice you have when you come to the Humble House?" You are Tang Tang's concubine, if you come to our mansion at every turn, I'm afraid it won't be good for the concubine's reputation. ”

Wan Zhen'er didn't pay attention to it at all, she looked at Yu Mian for a long time before saying: "Yu Mian Gongzi, this palace came today for you, aren't you moved at all?" ”

"What, for me?" Yu Mian asked with some surprise.

"Of course it's for you, I heard that the emperor sent you to Baitou Mountain to attack the bandits, the bandits in Baitou Mountain are all outlaws, all of them are fierce, you take five hundred old and weak soldiers to attack and there will be no place to die."

Yu Mian heard Wan Zhen'er say this, and he was silent for a while, he knew that what Wan Zhen'er said was the truth.

If he took five hundred old and weak soldiers to attack the fierce bandits in Baitou Mountain, I am afraid that there would be no return, but he still did not speak, only listened to Wan Zhen'er, he knew that Wan Zhen'er would definitely not come this time to tell himself that he was in danger.

Sure enough, Wan Zhen'er glanced at him obliquely and said, "This palace can persuade the emperor to give up this plan, but this palace hopes that you can also do something for this palace." ”

"What, do something for Niangniang, what can Yu Mian do for Niangniang?" Yu Mian looked at Wan Zhen'er and said in disbelief.

He felt that Wan Zhen'er was no longer the Wan Zhenniang he saw in Qianhong Courtyard, she was a scheming woman at this moment, and every word she said might be a trap, so when he talked to Wan Zhen'er, he was extremely cautious.

Wan Zhen'er saw him being so wary of herself, and she couldn't help but feel a little cold in her heart, but she still endured the coldness in her heart, and said to the crown: "Prince Yu Mian, what this palace wants you to do is to hope that you can leave Tang Jingran, as long as you leave Tang Jingran, this palace will definitely be able to persuade the emperor not to send you to Baitou Mountain to exterminate the bandits." ”

Yu Mian saw Wan Zhen'er say this, she was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said: "I finally know why Niangniang is here today, it turns out that Niangniang came today to be a lobbyist for the emperor, and it is probably not Niangniang's idea to let Yu Mian give up Shock, but the emperor's idea, I know that the emperor has liked Shocking for a long time, and he has always hoped that Shocking Staining can enter the palace as a concubine, but what Shocking Staining likes is Yu Mian, so the emperor has been worried about this matter." ”

When he said this, he raised his eyes to look at Wan Zhen'er, Wan Zhen'er's face was as calm as water, and there was no expression on his face, which made him feel a little stunned.

He continued: "The emperor has always been worried about Yu Mian and the shock, so this time he found an excuse to send Yu Mian to the expedition, if Yu Mian has any three longs and two shorts, then the emperor can find an excuse to integrate the shocking dye into the palace, is what Yu Mian said right?" ”

Wan Zhen'er still looked at Yu Mian quietly and didn't say a word.

Yu Mian smiled bitterly and said: "The emperor is the Ninety-Five, the son of heaven, the so-called king called the ministers to die, the ministers had to die, and the emperor had to rule the crown to death, and Yu Mian had nothing to say, but if the emperor wanted to separate Yu Mian from the shock, it would be impossible, Yu Mian was single-minded about the shock, no matter who could not tear us apart, he was the emperor. ”

When Yu Mian said these words, his face was very resolute, obviously he had a deep affection for Tang Jingran, the more he had this expression, the more uncomfortable Wan Zhen'er felt in Wan Zhen'er's eyes, Wan Zhen'er liked Yu Mian very much, she didn't expect Yu Mian to be so resolute in her feelings for Tang Jingran.

"Sure enough, it's a pair of hard-working mandarin ducks who are stronger than Jin, but so what? Do you think the emperor will just let you go? Even if you can't die this time when you go to Baektu Mountain, then when you come back, the emperor will definitely find a way to break you up. ”

Wan Zhen'er said these words out of sincerity, and she can be said to have a deep affection for the crown, but Yu Mian doesn't know.

Yu Mian shook his head and said: "The kindness of the concubine is received by Yu Mian, please tell the emperor that even if it is a thunderstorm, even if Yu Mian dies, Yu Mian will not give up because of this, please dispel this idea!" Since the emperor asked Yu Mian to go to Baitou Mountain to exterminate the bandits, then Yu Mian set off as soon as possible, and the emperor said that Yu Mian would go to death, then Yu Mian would go to death, and Yu Mian had absolutely no other complaints. ”

After speaking, he stood upright and glanced at Wan Zhen'er, obviously with the intention of sending off guests.

His back was straight and straight, standing there like a pine tree, the kind of temperament on his body, that kind of arrogance and determination was not found by the indecisive Zhu Jianshen, and this was also a place that attracted Wan Zhen'er.

Wan Zhen'er smiled bitterly in her heart, and said in her heart: "You are so resolute now, why didn't you come out to say a word when your mother drove me away?" ”

Thinking of this, she felt a chill in her heart go straight to her heart, she pointed to Yu Mian and said: "Yu Mian, don't spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, I didn't come here today because the emperor asked me to come, but I wanted to let me come, I came to save you, but you don't appreciate it, if one day you don't have to die well, you must not blame me." ”

Yu Mian was very strange, why Wan Zhen'er suddenly changed a tone when she spoke, he raised his head to look at her, and saw that her beautiful extension added a sense of resentment, which was so violent that he couldn't accept it at all for a while.

Yu Mian had never seen the resentment in a woman's eyes so profound, and the resentment melted layer by layer, making Yu Mian feel a little cold in his heart.

He looked at Wan Zhen'er and said: "Okay, just assume that Yu Mian just said the wrong thing, it was the mother who was good to the crown, so she had an old friendship with Yu Mian at the beginning, so I came to remind Yu Mian that what the mother should say has been finished, please go back to the palace, if it is a long time, I am afraid that the emperor will ask." ”

Wan Zhen'er looked at Yu Mian's handsome face at this moment, she had mixed feelings in her heart, and she had all kinds of feelings, and she said to Mian after a while: "Yu Mian, don't you really know what I mean for you?" ”

When Yu Mian heard Wan Zhen'er say this, he was taken aback, he took a few steps back, and asked Wan Zhen'er in shock: "What does Niang Niang mean by this?" ”

Wan Zhen'er looked at Yu Mian and the old hatred surged up together, her heart was like knocking over the five-flavor bottle, and she said to Mian: "Yu Mian, don't you really know at all? Don't you know how much affection I have for you? At that time, I came to your house to join you, hoping to be by your side forever, and to be with you for the rest of my life, and never to be separated, but—"

Speaking of this, her face was dyed with a layer of sadness, it was your mother who broke us apart, it was your mother who kicked me out, I was stolen after I fell on the street, I didn't have a penny on me, and I was bullied by flowers, I looked at others and only felt that life was worse than death, all thoughts were lost, if it wasn't for your mother, how could I have fallen to that point.

Wan Zhen'er's words made Yu Mian feel very shocked, he didn't expect Wan Zhen'er to suffer so much at that time, and he also felt very sorry in his heart.

Because when he first saw Wan Zhen'er, he also had a trace of affection for her, so he took out thirty taels of silver and handed it to Gu Fenghuang, hoping that Gu Fenghuang would stop forcing her to pick up guests, and he also promised Gu Fenghuang that he would definitely come and take her away within a month.

But because he met Tang Jingran, he didn't fulfill his promise to her, and it was precisely because he met Tang Jingran that he empathized and said goodbye.

The trace of affection for Wan Zhen'er in his heart slowly disappeared, all of which he recalled like a dream, he only felt like a swallow in his heart, and only choked up after a while and said: "I'm sorry, you suffered, I didn't know that you suffered so much at the beginning." ”

Yu Mian's words made Wan Zhen'er feel a little moved in her heart, she didn't expect that Yu Mian still had a trace of care for herself.

Therefore, she choked up and said: "The reason why I came to your mother's bad luck at that time was nothing more than because your mother kicked me out and broke us up at that time, so every time I think about it, my heart feels like a knife, and that emotion is something you can't understand, right?" ”

She looked at Yu Mian, and the grievance on her face became even stronger.

Yu Mian was stared at by her like this, and he didn't know what to say for a while, and he sighed for a long time and said: "The so-called fate is thousands of miles to meet, but it is difficult to hold hands on the other side, don't think about the past things Niangniang, now Niangniang is already a noble concubine, it is really a great blessing, as the so-called everything is fate, not at all, why should Niangniang indulge in the old hatred?" ”

"How can I not indulge, if I will never see you, and I will never think of you in my heart, then I will not think about anything, and I will treat the emperor wholeheartedly, but in fact? In fact, you often appear in front of me, and I often hear your name inadvertently, and every time I hear your name, I feel like a knife in my heart. ”

As she spoke, there was a heavy pile of resentment on her face, obviously a long-standing grudge.

Yu Mian finally understood what Wan Zhen'er wanted to say, it turned out that he didn't know that Wan Zhen'er liked him so much.

Sure enough, Wan Zhen'er continued to say slowly: "The reason why I entered the palace in the first place is because I really have nowhere to go, and secondly, because I hope that one day I can become a concubine and queen above ten thousand people under one person, and then I can repay the insult I received that day, but now I think about it is really ridiculous, because from the beginning I have lost my most precious thing, that is you, you know?" ”

She looked at Yu Mian's face and became very affectionate, obviously she had no feelings for Mian.

She laughed stupidly and said, "I have never liked the emperor, although I sleep next to him every day, but every time I think about you-"

"Don't say any more, mother, please respect yourself!" The more Yu Mian listened to Wan Zhen'er, the more unacceptable he became.

If Wan Zhen'er continues to say this, then there will be an entangled relationship between the two, if it reaches the ears of the emperor, it will be a great crime to have an affair with the concubine, so he has to stop Wan Zhen'er from talking about it anyway.

Wan Zhen'er was indulging in her feelings, and when she suddenly heard Yu Mian say this, she felt slightly stunned.

She took two steps back, her figure staggered a little, and said, "Yu Mian, why are you stopping me from talking, can't I leave a little memory if I want to?" Why? Don't you have the slightest affection for me in your heart? I don't believe it, I don't believe it. ”

She looked at Yu Mian sadly, wanting to get a hint of an answer from Yu Mian's quantity.

Yu Mian lowered his head, and only after a while did he raise his head and look at Wan Zhen'er and said: "Niangniang, Yu Mian never lies, the first time I saw Niangniang, I felt very pitiful to Niangniang, and felt that Niangniang was different from other women in Qianhong Courtyard, so I took out thirty amounts of silver, hoping to help Niangniang, Yu Mian may have had a trace of affection for Niangniang in her heart, but it means that everything has changed after Mian saw Niangniang, Yu Mian is single-minded about Niangniang, and has never thought about others. ”

"You talk nonsense, you lie to me, you lie to me, I don't believe that you don't have the slightest affection for me, if you didn't have the slightest affection for me at the beginning, why did you, why didn't you say a word last time I came to your house to make a fuss? Isn't it because you still have affection for me? ”

Wan Zhen'er looked at him with no letter, she couldn't accept that Yu Mian didn't have the slightest affection for her no matter what, but Yu Mian's words made her feel cold in her heart.

Yu Mian said: "The reason why I didn't speak at the time was because I felt that what my mother did that day was indeed inappropriate, so I didn't say anything, but this doesn't mean that what I like in my heart is Niangniang, what I like in my heart is only Tang Jingran, there is absolutely no second person, I can die for Tang Jingran without regrets." ”

"What? You said you like Tang Jingran, you know why you like her, you just like Tang Jingran because Tang Jingran is younger and prettier than me, so you like her, right? ”

When Wan Zhen'er said these words, her eyes seemed to be about to erupt into flames, obviously melancholy to the extreme.

That Yu Mian shook his head very frankly and said: "Niangniang, what you said is not right, it's not because of this that I like shock, the reason why I like shocking is because she is a very courageous woman." ”

Yu Mian was immersed in the past, and slowly told Wan Zhen'er about his acquaintance with Tang Jingran.

He said: "Niangniang, the reason why I like to be shocked is nothing more than because she is a good woman, she has her perseverance, her resoluteness, her persistence, and she has her kindness, her chivalrous and tender, and her affection, the reason why I like her is because she is Tang Jingran and not others, maybe others think she is a very beautiful person, but if she is a very ugly person, I also like her, I like her is her heart, not her appearance, every time I am with her, I feel very happy, that feeling is not with other people, Niang Niang Yu Mian said, can you understand? ”

Yu Mian looked at Wan Zhen'er quietly as he spoke, he wanted to tell Wan Zhen'er that everything he said was said from the bottom of his heart, and there was absolutely no lie, at that moment, Wan Zhen'er suddenly felt a sense of frustration that she had never felt before, she fell to the ground, covered her head and suddenly cried.

Yu Mian didn't know what to say when he saw her crying there, if Wan Zhen'er frowned at him coldly, or even if Wan Zhen'er slapped him, he wouldn't blame him, and he could feel calm.

But at this moment, Wan Zhen'er was there, and she sat on the ground, crying like a weak woman who had been bullied.

At that moment, she was no longer a high-ranking concubine, she was just an ordinary woman, her only hope was to get her lover's love, but this love was something she could never get.

She cried for a long, long time, Yu Mian just watched her cry quietly, and finally she stood up, turned around and left.

She walked so slowly, so slowly, as if she hoped that Yu Mian could keep her, but Yu Mian didn't say anything, just watched her go quietly.

Yu Mian knew that he and Wan Zhen'er had finally made a decision today, and Wan Zhen'er might die to herself in the future, so she would be devoted to the emperor.

He felt that everything was wrong in the end, but the fault was not all on Wan Zhen'er, Wan Zhen'er became what she is today, and he was also responsible for Yu Mian.

Therefore, he can let Wan Zhen'er go, but he is even more sure that he only likes one person in his life, and that person is Tang Jingran, as for Wan Zhen'er, he has no personal feelings for her.

Therefore, he was able to say so many words to himself, and it was just because of the feeling of guilt in his heart.

After Wan Zhen'er walked out of Yu's mansion, Yu Mian stood there alone and sighed for a long time, and after a long time he said: "It seems that I am really going to fight this battle." ”

After Wan Zhen'er returned to the palace, she felt that she had been hit in her heart, and the blow was very huge, so she couldn't accept it no matter what.

She fell seriously ill in Yonghe Palace, and the illness was menacing, and the illness was like a mountain, so that her shrewd and capable Concubine Wan Guifei was completely knocked down for a while, and she didn't know why she became like this.

But she felt that one of her hearts had become very soft, soft like a big marshmallow, and that softness completely knocked her down, making her immersed in it and unable to extricate herself.

Mama Chen saw Wan Zhen'er fall ill all of a sudden, which made her feel very strange, she comforted her from the side and said to her: Niangniang, you have to get better quickly, if you don't get better soon, then this harem will change a world, and now that Niangniang is sick, the queen will be a little ambitious, if Niangniang is not good again-" Mama Chen said as tears flowed out.

Wan Zhen'er saw that Mama Chen was so worried about her condition, and knew that Mama Chen was not only planning for herself, but also thinking about her future.
