"Miss!"

The nurse exclaimed, threw herself beside Wen Yue and raised her right arm to help her up, but Wen Yue pushed her away.

Wen Yue's eyes were full of anxiety and helplessness, and she opened her mouth with tears in her eyes: "He knelt down for you, and I knelt down for you, we are sorry for you, I know this, but... But I really can't live without him, I can compensate you, you can do whatever you want, I can give you whatever you want... But... But can you agree to withdraw from the marriage, as long as you are willing to withdraw from the marriage, I will give you whatever you want!"

Zhang Qiyan stood up suddenly, took a step back and shook off Wen Yue's hand that grabbed the corner of her skirt, and stood there condescendingly, with an arrogant and indifferent expression on her face, "The dignified daughter of the Feng family, for a man, she actually knelt down for me Zhang Qiyan, if I don't agree today, I am afraid that your Feng family's face will not be able to pick it up!"

Wen Yue's hands were clenched into fists, and she gritted her teeth and lowered her head, but she never stood up.

Zhang Qiyan glanced at her deeply again, suddenly turned around and faced the door, and said word by word: "I wasted three years for him, and you have to pay me back these three years." ”

Wen Yue was overjoyed, and immediately looked up at her, "You agreed?"

Zhang Qiyan held the handmaid's hand and walked out of the door, stepped out of the house before stopping, turned her back to Wen Yue and said: "My time, you two come to pay it back, the Zhang family's lost face is responsible for your Wu Feng family." After three years, we don't owe each other, and when the time comes, whether you get together or disperse, it will no longer be relevant to me!"

Wen Yue laughed, but the tears on her face flowed more and more.

"Thank you!"

Zhang Qiyan looked up at the grand scenery of the garden and laughed gloomily.

"Three years ago, he said he wanted to marry me, but three years later you showed up. What about you, what will happen to you in the past three years? Can you afford to wait for these three years?"

Wen Yue slowly stood up, wiped the tears from her face, looked at Zhang Qiyan's back, and replied firmly, "I can afford to wait." I believe in him, I know he has me in his heart, so no matter how many years, I can afford to wait!"

Zhang Qiyan turned around and glanced at Wen Yue deeply, turned around and held the handmaid's hand and slowly walked out of the courtyard gate, never looking back.

The sun was so poisonous, but her steps were not chaotic.

After Zhang Qiyan left, Wen Yue sat down on the chair as if she had lost her soul, first crying and laughing for a while, happy like a child, but after laughing, she clenched her fists tightly, glanced in the direction of the door, closed her eyes and lowered her head.

The nurse knew that she was annoyed about kneeling to Zhang Qiyan, after all, according to her heart, no matter how much she was at fault and no matter how urgent she was, it would undoubtedly be a great shame to kneel like this, and the torture and remorse caused by this humiliation would always wear down her self-esteem until she slowly relieved herself and finally forgot about it.

After a long time, when the nurse walked over and stretched out her hand to comfort her, she hugged the nurse's waist and cried aggrievedly, "I finally waited for my stepbrother, I have waited for so many years, nurse, I have waited for so many years......"

The nurse sighed and hugged her, patted her back and coaxed gently, "Yes, I've waited for so many years, and I've finally arrived." ”

At this point in the story, it should have been a perfect ending, and Kazeyin was even relieved that her mother and the general could finally be together. But Feng Yin knew very well in his heart that this story did not end here, but turned to another direction, a completely opposite direction, and his own existence is the best proof.

Feng Yin could even feel that the part he was going to see next would be the saddest part of the story, the part about himself.

Three years is not a long time, but it is not a short time. It's short enough to shake a relationship between lovers, but long enough to change the life of two people who should be plain and happy.

On an auspicious day of the zodiac with good weather, General Wu prepared a rich dowry, and took his eldest son Wu Jichen to ask for marriage in person, and the national teacher did not object under the expectant gaze of his daughter, and the two families of Wu Feng made a marriage contract, agreeing to hold a big wedding for the two children three years later.

On the morning of sending off his step-minister and the old general back to Shawu Town, Wen Yue hung the sachet that she had finally rusted on her step-minister, and said to her step-minister with a smile holding back her tears: "You have to keep it with you and think about me all the time." ”

Jichen smiled and stroked Wen Yue's side face, gently hugged her in his arms, and left a word in her ear, "Wait for me to come back and marry you." ”

Wen Yue still couldn't hold back after all, grabbing the robe on the side of her stepminister's waist and whimpering and shedding tears.

Looking at the direction in which the step-minister left, Wen Yue comforted herself in her heart, this time is different from before, this time we already have a marriage contract, this time the step-minister will come back, he will definitely come back, he will definitely come back to marry me.

Maybe the sadness is too heavy, maybe the fate is too shallow, or maybe the red thread of the old moon can't resist the erosion of the years after all, and after three years, the silk thread that was originally tied to the two of them is still broken.

In the next three years, too many things happened, although my mother-in-law did not see it with her own eyes, but she remembered it deeply.

At the end of the year, Suxing, a small and ambitious country in the south, finally couldn't bear it anymore and raised troops to invade the neighboring Nanfeng. Nanfeng had paid tribute to the Great Zhou for many years, so he borrowed troops from the Great Zhou to fight back for self-protection.

The Great Zhou sent 100,000 troops to help it counterattack, and these 100,000 troops included 20,000 soldiers sent by General Wu from Shawu Town and personally led by him.

In the end, Suxing was not only defeated, but also taken the opportunity by General Zhennan, who was stationed in the south of the Great Zhou, to lead his army to sneak attack the weakly defended capital Jingcheng, and finally attacked the imperial city.

The Zhennan army killed the filial piety emperor Sikong Xianming and the crown prince Sikong Wenxuan, the queen in order to avoid humiliation with the princess Sikong Wenyu hanged herself in the dormitory, but the four-year-old second son of the Xiaoxian Emperor Sikong Wenlang and his biological mother Concubine Key, the Great Zhou army searched inside and outside the palace, and in a fit of anger the palace slaves and royal relatives were all killed, the palace blood flowed into a river, the royal family was annihilated, and the country was broken since then.

After the destruction of the country in Suxing, when the old general led the army back to Shawu Town, it was already the turn of spring and summer of the second year, who knew that when he returned to the house, he was told that Yuemei's tomb was stolen, and the burial goods were looted, and even the bones were dug out of the coffin, and before they could be reburied, they were placed in the temporary mourning hall in the small courtyard.

The old general was furious, and only went to the courtyard to take a look at Yuemei's bones, and then broke a red tassel spear.

In a fit of rage, the old general personally led his troops to hunt down the tomb robbers, and in just seven days, all the tomb robbers in the northwest were arrested and put into prison for torture.

On the eighth day, the old general personally sorted out Yuemei's bones for reburial, regardless of fatigue, but accidentally found that Yuemei's bones wrapped in rotten clothing were purple and black in color, which was very strange. Recalling the various symptoms of Yuemei before her death, the old general was shocked in his heart, and immediately invited him to come to investigate, and after an inspection, he found that Yuemei's death was caused by poisoning.

The old general spat out a mouthful of blood after learning the truth, and fell to the ground with black eyes, but he didn't let anyone help him, so he sat next to Yuemei's bones until dawn the next day.

After dawn, the old general struggled with his sick body and buried Yuemei in person, and then ordered a strict investigation of the events of the year.

It is rumored that for the first time in his life, the old general summoned the most disgraceful dead soldier of the Wu family.

On that day, the maids who had served when Yuemei was ill, the doctors who had been diagnosed and treated, and the owners of the shops who had prescribed medicine were all thrown into the Wu family's private prison and tortured by the dead. But in the end, nothing came out.

The old general is in love with Yuemei deeply, and vows that he will never give up until he finds out who poisoned him. In a fit of rage, all the people in the house who had contact with Yuemei were put in the dungeon for personal interrogation, and from time to time the man's screams came from the prison, which was miserable and abnormal.

For a while, the entire general's mansion was panicked, like hell on earth.

Just two days later, when the entire General's Mansion was about to fall into the purgatory of the underworld, a turning point quietly came.

On the morning of the third day, the old general's wife knelt in front of Yuemei's tomb in a filial piety robe, and asked the personal maid to invite the old general and admit the poisoning in person.

It is said that the old general and his wife stayed at the tomb all day that day, but no one knows what they said or did.

After that day, the old general put his wife under house arrest in the courtyard and never saw her again.

In the autumn of that year, the South was at war again.

After the collapse of the Suxing Kingdom, it was controlled by the Great Zhou, but the armed forces that were originally hidden under the regime gradually emerged, and they wanted to get rid of the control of the Great Zhou and establish a new regime, and there were constant conflicts with the garrison of the Great Zhou army.

The old general asked the saint to lead the troops to suppress it, and the eldest son Wu Jichen asked to go with him but was reprimanded by the old general and punished to kneel in the ancestral shrine, even if Wu Jichen insisted, he was finally left in Shawu Town.

After the old general handed over his young son Wu Jifeng to Wu Jichen, he set foot on the battlefield and never returned.

The veteran general was extremely brave on the battlefield, taking the lead, and in less than half a year, he pacified the three largest resistance forces, and was highly praised by the government and the public.

But at the same time, the demon clan that was originally dormant in the southern mountains and forests gradually prospered under the leadership of the new king Jiu Lieli, and was no longer satisfied with the status quo of survival in the hot and humid mountains and forests, and decided to go out of the mountains to replace Suxing and establish their own power in the original land of Suxing.

It is rumored that the demon army is copper-headed and iron-armed, extremely vicious, brave and good at fighting, and never stops dying.

At the end of the year, the old general met with the demon tribe and was besieged on a west-facing street in Jingcheng.

The Great Zhou soldiers led by the old general had run out of food and grass, suffered heavy casualties, and the reinforcements were thousands of miles away.

The old general also met the king of the demon clan, Jiu Lieli, on that day. It is said that the old general fought fiercely with Jiu Lieli for dozens of rounds, and was finally inserted into his throat by Jiu Lieli with a red tassel spear, and he did not close his eyes until he died.

The 5,000-strong army was slaughtered, and the Great Zhou began to lose absolute control of the land of Suxing.
