Chapter 143: But she smiled
Yue Huaiyin has long since died, and now she is just a wisp of a ghost who is about to be reincarnated, but unfortunately her resentment is too deep, so she did not hesitate to run away halfway and came to Lingxiao Inn.
She has been wandering for several days, and she can only get in when Pei'er is not by Xiaowan's side tonight.
"Where do you guess Ling Chaofeng is now?" Yue Huaiyin smiled hideously, she just wanted to tell Mu Xiaowan that she would torture her for the rest of her life, she approached Xiaowan, and the wind was gusting.
Xiaowan is not afraid, she still has something to be afraid of.
"Because of you, he wants to squat on the Xuanzheng Hall of the Imperial Palace and be a thousand-year-old stone beast." Yue Huaiyin almost put on Xiao Wan's face, wanting to absorb her yang energy, "Because of you, he has been severely punished again, and after a thousand years, he will be reincarnated again, going through countless calamities and suffering." ”
Xiao Wan glared at her: "How do you know?" ”
"The immortals, demons, and monsters between heaven and earth know everything, and now that you are dead and turned into a soul, you will also know." Yue Huaiyin sneered, wanting to touch her cheek, "It's painful, it's better to live than to die, you also have today?" ”
Xiao Wan stretched out her hand to block it, Yue Huaiyin just touched the jade ring on her finger, and the whole soul was bounced off and hit the wall.
"What is this?" Yue Huaiyin's soul became weaker, and she was in pain, "What are you wearing on your hand?" ”
But at this moment, Pei'er flew back, rushed into the bedroom, and dragged Yue Huaiyin out with a bite in her mouth.
Xiaowan rushed to the window, but saw Pei'er angrily scolding in the sky: "Demon, want to harm my mother? ”
Almost instantly, the soul that had become thin was torn to pieces by Pei'er and wiped out in ashes.
Pei'er returned to her mother and asked her, "Mother, are you okay?" ”
Xiaowan shook her head: "How is she?" ”
Pei'er said: "The ashes are gone, and you can't be reincarnated." Mother, what did that demon say to you? ”
Xiaowan shook her head: "I didn't say anything, as soon as she touched me, she was bounced open by this ring, which was given to me by your grandmother." ”
Pei'er looked at her mother suspiciously: "Really? ”
Xiaowan pinched his face gently: "Why did my mother lie to you?" You go back quickly, otherwise Aunt Su Su won't see you, and she will be worried. ”
Pei'er flew outside the inn and drew a circle around the inn, so that the demons and monsters could not enter, and he went back leisurely.
Xiao Wan hurriedly closed the window, sat back on the bed, touched the jade ring between her fingers, and recalled every word Yue Huaiyin said.
No wonder when she arrived in the capital, she would strongly feel the existence of Xianggong, it turned out that he was in the palace.
Yue Huaiyin's words, combined with her mother-in-law's words, Xiaowan understood.
Xianggong is the same god as Pei'er, because of her, he violated the rules of heaven and was punished to make a stone statue, and he had to squat there for a thousand years.
She can't care about what will happen after a hundred years and thousands of years, but in the life she has lived, she has not drunk Meng Po soup and will not forget her husband's life, she wants to be with her husband.
Even if he turned into a stone statue.
Xiao Wan sat in a daze, thinking about what she had to do to not harm the morning wind, but also to be "together" with him, until she heard the sound of horses' hooves downstairs, she opened the window, and found that it was dawn.
"General Wei?" Xiao Wan looked at the person riding on horseback downstairs in astonishment, he was dusty, and he didn't know how long he had been on the road.
Welcoming people into the door, Xiao Wan saw his bloodshot eyes, he must have been in a hurry overnight, what is the important thing about him to come to the inn?
It turned out that Wei Tengfei sent someone to protect Xiaowan, although the people at the inn lost her, but when she left with her son early that morning, Wei Tengfei's people followed.
They watched the little lady jump into the cliff and regretted that they didn't have time to save her. Followed by lightning, thunder, and flying sand and rocks, they took refuge in the bushes, and although they did not know what had happened, when they had calmed down and stood up again, they saw the little lady and her son sitting on the cliff again.
There were three of them, and all three of them saw Xiao Wan jump off the cliff and commit suicide, and it was impossible for him to come back alive anyway, so one of them rushed back to Sichuan and Chongqing and told Wei Tengfei about this strange thing.
Avoiding Uncle Biao and Aunt Zhang, Wei Tengfei spoke to Xiaowan alone, and he asked straight to the point: "Xiaowan, is there anything strange about your inn, or Ling Chaofeng?" ”
Xiaowan shook her head: "It's nothing, why did the general ask like this." ”
Wei Tengfei frowned tightly: "Xiaowan, are you really okay?" My men watched you jump off the cliff, and in the blink of an eye, you were back on the cliff, how did you do that? ”
Xiaowan said: "Are they dazzled?" General, you ...... Send someone to follow me? ”
No matter how Wei Tengfei asked, Xiaowan just didn't admit it, and Wei Tengfei couldn't bear to force her, as for Wei Tengfei sending someone to protect her, Xiaowan didn't feel disgusted and resisted.
"That's it, you're okay, I'm relieved." Wei Tengfei gave up.
"But since the general is here, can you do me a favor?" Xiao Wan smiled.
"How can I help you?" Wei Tengfei felt even more strange in his heart.
"I want to go to the capital, I want to be a palace maid for the queen." Xiaowan said, "In this way, I can always accompany my mother." ”
Wei Tengfei was stunned: "Be a palace maid? ”
Xiaowan nodded: "As a palace maid, you can stay in the palace all the time, right?" ”
Wei Tengfei didn't agree well, and he was afraid that rejecting Xiaowan would make her sad, so he used the excuse that Xiaowan should discuss with her family so that her family could stop her.
Naturally, everyone in the family was scared by her. Only Pei'er understood why her mother went there, the demon who had said something to her mother last night, but Xiaowan just didn't admit it, and Pei'er couldn't point it out, even if her grandmother said these words when she was angry that day, he couldn't say it.
No one can object to what Xiaowan insists on, and for Aunt Zhang, it is not easy for Xiaowan to be willing to live well, so she agrees if she doesn't agree.
Early the next morning, Xiaowan left, and Wei Tengfei personally drove the carriage and took her to Beijing.
Xiao Wan asked guiltily: "I am really guilty that the general left the soldiers for me." ”
Wei Tengfei said: "The world is peaceful, you don't have to worry. Even if I'm not there, they will train as usual, and it's not an exaggeration to do my own thing now now that I've been dedicated to the army for so many years. ”
Xiao Wan was not polite: "General, I will definitely repay you." ”
Wei Tengfei said with a smile: "Don't jump off the cliff again, you are repaying me." ”
Of course, Xiaowan wouldn't admit it, but she smiled.
Wei Tengfei looked at her smile in surprise, why did she go to be a palace maid, she would be so happy, was it because it was like smoke?
Only Pei'er knows why her mother is happy, but mother and son can't tell each other, he always glared at his mother angrily, every time he was angry, he was exactly the same as his father, and Xiaowan liked it more.
The carriage ran all the way to the capital, and the dragon queen stood in front of the heavenly mirror, seeing all this clearly.
"Queen Mother, did you deliberately get angry that day and deliberately tell Xiaowan to listen?" The eldest son, Prison Niu, stood aside and asked gently, "Who let Yue Huaiyin's ghost go?" ”
The dragon queen smiled at her son: "What are you talking about, I don't understand." ”
In the capital, the emperor got the news very early, saying that Wei Tengfei was taking Mu Xiaowan alone and was coming to the capital. He thought that this matter could not be hidden from the queen, and the couple discussed it, thinking that Wei Tengfei had moved Xiaowan, and they were going to ask the emperor for marriage.
On this day, the imperial court promulgated a decree that those who are outstanding among the scholars in this year's imperial examination will all enter the court as officials.
What is strange is that the new champion only got a poor book revision, although the grade is high, but there is no real power. And Bi Zhenye and Ling Chu, who failed to enter the top three, went to the Ministry of Industry and the Criminal Department, both of whom were appointed to the Wupinlang, and their prospects were immeasurable.
For example, Prime Minister Bi Cheng, who started from the Ministry of Industry back then, has come step by step to today, and Bi Zhenye can be regarded as inheriting his mantle.
The decree of the official came together with the emperor's will to summon Prime Minister Bi, and he followed the palace people into the palace with trepidation. And at home, the old lady and Han Xi were overjoyed, and even the depressed Mrs. Bi finally smiled.
It's just that the old lady doesn't forget her little grandson in her mouth, and when she took her daughter-in-law and grandchildren to the ancestral hall to worship incense, she kept talking about the industry, and Mrs. Bi knelt behind her, her eyes were cold.
In the deep palace, the emperor saw Prime Minister Bi Cheng, watched his lonely back slowly leave, and saw the palace people come to report, saying that General Wei had arrived outside the palace gate.
"Queen, please." Xiang Run instructed, but said, "That's it, housework, go to Hanyuan Hall and say." ”
The emperor and queen thought that Wei Tengfei brought Xiao Wan this time, no matter what, it could not be a state affair, but their expected request for marriage did not come true, Xiao Wan actually said that she wanted to be a palace maid and accompany the queen.
Xiang Run frowned slightly, Ruyan was also surprised, and said with a smile: "If you don't want to be a palace maid, you can stay by my side, please ask the emperor to canonize you as the wife of the Emperor." ”
Xiaowan said tremblingly: "But Mrs. Fate, no, you can't accompany Niangniang every day." ”
In this case, it is very far-fetched, and this matter is very strange in itself, and the emperor ordered them to step back and consult with the empress alone.
Obviously, Xiaowan suddenly wanted to be a palace maid, there must be her intentions, such a strange thing, the emperor couldn't agree to it for the sake of the peace of the harem.
Yiyan also knew that this couldn't be forced, but Xiaowan begged her, and she couldn't bear to refuse.
Seeing the queen's thoughts, the emperor sighed lightly: "That can't be placed next to you, not to mention that I am not at ease, even other people who serve you will feel uncomfortable." Your people will think that they are so dedicated, don't you still trust them, and you have to let go of your own people. You tell me? ”
Like smoke nodded again and again, Xiang Run thought about it, and said: "Let her go to the Xuanzheng Hall to clean, I can come to see you every day, and stay there the rest of the time, there are the most guards, and she can't be allowed to do strange things, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”
"That's it, maybe she has fulfilled her wish, and then she leaves." Ruyan said, "Your Majesty, Xiaowan won't get into trouble, she is so kind-hearted, and the person I see her today is more energetic than before, how good." ”
Wei Tengfei didn't expect the emperor to agree, he thought that at least the suspicious emperor would not nod at the last level, but everything fulfilled Xiaowan's wish, and the place she wanted to go to the most was the Xuanzheng Palace.
Ling Chaofeng stood on the top of the Xuanzheng Palace, looking at Xiaowan standing at the bottom, he smiled helplessly.
This little lady, how long will she want to pester him, is it true that in this life, even if she is accompanied by a stone statue, she will be with herself?
Xiaowan looked up at the stone beast on the cornice, and said with a smile: "Xianggong, I'm here, can you see me?" ”
