First Concubine

Chapter 232 Marriage between two houses (4)

Zhuge Yu got straight to the point: "I'll make a deal with you. It's done. Everything about Xun Feng will be yours. From now on, you will become the real Xun Feng, not a substitute who can be guessed by others."

 Li Jing turned his back: "I don't understand what you are talking about? I am Li Jing, and I have nothing to do with Xun Feng, the former heir apparent of Ping Nanhou Mansion."

Zhuge Yu walked to the desk, picked up the drawings on which he had written and painted, and said sarcastically: "You married Shui Lingxi and imitated Xun Feng's handwriting. Don't you hope that those party members who secretly colluded or openly couldn't stand it?" Xun Feng's opponent, do you think you are Xun Feng after his transformation? Open your eyes and see clearly that your biggest enemy is not me, not the Zhuge family, but Xun Feng, but you can't kill him with Jin Shanggong here. Me, I want him to be Mu Hua for the rest of his life more than you do!"

People are selfish. You can be honest when you have no chance to think about anything, but once someone opens the wings of your dream, you will want to fly higher, higher, and higher. ...Zhuge Yu and Li Jing searched the three hiding spots revealed one by one, and finally found Jin Shanggong who was having a verbal dispute with Xun Feng in an inconspicuous farmhouse in the south of the city.

"Prince, you believe me! I am really Jin Chen! You carved the small wooden sign around your neck yourself! Open the wooden sign and take a look. There is a small note embedded in the center, which writes the specific date of changing the memory. , as well as the date of the face change, and the ink pad pressed with my and your fingerprints. A person's appearance can change, his voice can change, and his habits can't be changed, but your prince, your fingerprints can't be changed!"

This method is exactly the same as Shui Linglong used to resist Xun Feng’s own memory! Xun Feng's eyelids blinked violently: "You...you are talking nonsense!"

“Your Majesty, if I am talking nonsense, you will know after you take down the wooden sign and take a look!”

Xun Feng was silent, and Jin Shanggong's eyes flashed, and he turned pale with horror: "Your Majesty! Did you lose the wooden sign? Or did you give it to Shui Linglong?"

Xun Feng said blankly: "I gave Shui Linglong."

Jin Shanggong collapsed on the ground, as if the sky had fallen, and he was completely helpless...

Zhuge Yu wanted to kill this old scourge, but apparently he underestimated Xun Feng's plan before he lost his memory. There were seventeen organs in this house from the inside to the outside, and thirty secret guards. Zhuge Yuruo rashly opened fire with Xun Feng. If you kill someone, you may not even be able to escape. Zhuge Yu's sharp eyes swept through every part of the house, and finally he broke into the house and took Xun Feng away.

When countless hidden weapons mixed with icy air came overwhelmingly behind him, Zhuge Yu and Xun Feng, who had no martial arts skills, dodged left and right. Time seemed to rewind to the Mobei camp many years ago. They were born and died in this way. Seeing Zhuge Yu trying his best to protect him, Xun Feng's eyes were filled with a layer of "strange" emotions.

The next day, the old lady called Xun Feng to Tian'anju and said with a smile on her face: "Hua'er, grandma called you here because she wants to ask you something. How do you feel about Miss Yao?"

 After rescuing Xun Feng last night, Zhuge Yu immediately went to the Yao family and agreed with the Yao family that the driver was drunk and died after falling and breaking his head. Afterwards, Mu Hua personally drove Yao Xin back to his home. As for Yao Xin's coma and Mu Hua's disappearance, they "disappeared". This was done mainly to preserve Yao Xin's reputation.

Xun Feng looked at the old lady with a complicated expression, and was about to say, I have no plans to marry for the time being. When Brother Hao grows up, I will still take him back to South Vietnam. However, his mind was spinning, and he finally decided to leave the carriage. Tell the whole story. After all, men and women are not intimate, so if they touch each other, should they take some responsibility? "Grandma, the carriage bumped last night, and Miss Yao and I... had to... uh... bump... and bump into each other. I didn't mean to take advantage of her. What I meant was that if Miss Yao doesn't dislike my humble status and my past... I have a son and I am willing to take responsibility.”

 The old lady was smiling from ear to ear!

On the other side, Mrs. Yao also held her daughter's hand and asked questions: "Daughter, you...why is your mouth broken?"

Yao Xin held her forehead and was speechless. Mrs. Yao is someone who has been here before. How could she not understand the look on her daughter’s face? She secretly scolded Mu Hua a thousand times in her heart for taking advantage of her daughter before they even got married? It can be seen that he is not a gentleman! But remembering what her son had said about buying off the coachman, she felt that maybe her daughter had "bitten" Mu Hua forcefully. She smiled and said: "Daughter, do you like Mu Hua?"

 Like a ghost! Such a lifeless person, apart from having a good appearance, what other charm does he have? If she hadn't dined with him at the same table that night and made sure that he had a normal appetite and breathing, she would probably have thought that the person holding her in the carriage was a zombie! Not knowing what she thought of, Yao Xin blinked indifferently: "Am I the one who has the final say in my marriage?"

Mrs. Yao said without thinking: "Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words..."

Yao Xin leaned back, lay back on the bed, and covered his head with the quilt: "Then don't ask me again!"

Mrs. Yao smiled. Is this...a promise?

The marriage between Xun Feng and Yao Xin was settled. After the news was released, the whole capital was shocked! The legitimate daughter of the Yao family actually wants to marry a second-married businessman! How many talented people in the capital will be blinded by crying? But some people say that the King of Zhenbei accepted Mu Hua as his adopted son, and his status is worthy of Yao Xin.

Xun Feng insists on moving out of the palace and living alone. He still has reason to stay in the palace before getting married. Once he gets married, it means that he has nothing to do with the palace anymore. What's the point of still living in the palace? The old lady wouldn't let him go, Zhuge Liuyun wouldn't let him go, and Brother Hao wouldn't let him go. He held him in his arms and didn't want him to leave, so he didn't want to let him go. The matter of moving to another house was left unsolved, but the wedding date was announced after the couple's wedding invitations: the tenth day of October, which was an auspicious day, and it was a good time to get married.

The palace, which has been cold for many years, has experienced a rapid rise in prosperity since Shui Linglong came to the door. First, brother and sister were born, then brother Hao and Xun Feng came, and then Leng Youru, who had been sterilized for many years, became pregnant. Now Xun Feng is facing a big crisis. Marriage, the only thing missing is the good news from the second wife.

 However, not everyone has the same luck as the Zhuge family. Floods have been serious in the south this year. Governor Jiang personally went to the front line of flood fighting and rescue operations. When he was directing soldiers to consolidate the embankment, he suddenly encountered a flood peak and was trapped on an isolated island. Before rescuers could arrive, he and more than 50 soldiers were all washed away by the flood. , after seven full days of salvage, only fourteen corpses were recovered. The rest...were all fed to the fish in the river, including Governor Jiang's. Shui Lingyu looked forward to the stars and the moon, and she only hoped for a chubby son at the beginning of the year. Before the son even called him father, he was separated from his father. Shui Lingyu took her son back to the capital and is currently living in Shangshu Mansion.

Shui Linglong, who was originally scheduled to return to her parents' home to visit Shui Lingqing and the old lady at the end of July, was delayed because she helped Leng Youru prepare for Xun Feng and Yao Xin's marriage. It was not until the old lady's birthday at the end of August that Shui Linglong met Zhuge Yu went to Shangshu Mansion together.

When Shui Linglong and Zhuge Yu arrived at the door of Shangshu Mansion with their congratulatory gifts, they happened to see a carriage coming from the palace parked not far away. Then, they saw four palace maids and eight eunuchs lined up. He opened the carriage, bowed his head, and welcomed a beautiful young woman in sapphire blue palace clothes out of the carriage. A delicate-looking little **** bowed and handed over her arm. She stretched out her dreamy and beautiful hand like moonlight, and gently placed it on her on it. As if feeling Shui Linglong's gaze, the young woman turned her face away indifferently, but when she saw Shui Linglong's appearance, she raised a faint smile: "Linglong, long time no see."

Shui Linglong and Zhuge Yuxing came to her side and greeted her with a smile: "Yes, aunt, long time no see."

Shui Chenxiang covered her face with a handkerchief and smiled gracefully: "Maybe we can see each other more often in the future." After saying this, she held the little eunuch's arm, took a quick step forward, and walked gracefully into the minister's palace.

Shui Linglong's smile gradually faded. She would remember it rightly. Shui Chenxiang was an abandoned concubine who was banished to the cold palace by the Supreme Emperor himself. After Yunli ascended the throne, her status was raised to a concubine at most, but Look, her appearance today is completely that of a concubine.

"Why did Shui Chenxiang leave the palace? Don't tell me that the Supreme Emperor is in Mobei and still misses the old lady's birthday. He specially issued a decree to confer Shui Chenxiang as the concubine and allowed her to leave the palace to visit relatives." Shui Linglong asked Zhuge suspiciously. Yu.

 Zhuge Yu raised his thick eyebrows and glanced at Shui Chenxiang's back with a half-smile, "Concubine Li is pregnant."

 Li Fei, Li Jing's younger sister, ranks alongside Yan Fei and is the second-ranking concubine. It is said that she is very popular with the Queen Mother. Shui Linglong touched her chin: "So, this is the grace that Concubine Li asked for for Shui Chenxiang?" Shui Chenxiang also said that they might see each other more often in the future. She always felt that Shui Chenxiang seemed to be hinting at something. What could it be?

"Ignore her, Zuo is just a crazy woman!" Zhuge Yu said with great enthusiasm, stroking her brows that were slightly frowned due to thinking.

Shui Linglong couldn't deny it: "Well, maybe I'm overthinking it." But after taking a look at the grand plaque of Shui Mansion, she saw that the old lady was not very agile, but she held a birthday banquet. She vaguely felt that there was a mystery hidden in it. .

This is a family banquet, and the guests are all relatives, including Shui Linglong and his wife, Shui Lingxi and his wife, Shui Chenxiang, Shui Lingyu, and Qin Zhixiao and his wife from the Prime Minister's Mansion. Qin Zhixiao got married at the end of last year, to Lu Min, the daughter of the Minister of Household Affairs. The ancestors of the Lu family had produced 118 court officials, including two prime ministers, three Taifus, and a cabinet bachelor. Seven of them and sixteen of them belong to a truly scholarly family.

As soon as Shui Linglong walked around the gauze cabinet and entered the booth where the female guests were talking, she saw Lu Min smiling and talking to Shui Linglong. Lu Min has fair skin, clear eyes, and a slightly plump figure. Compared with Shui Lingyu, who is still slim after giving birth, she looks much ordinary. Hearing the sound of footsteps, Lu Min looked up and saw a young woman about eighteen years old approaching. She was wearing a red plum blossom silver top and a plain white moonlight skirt, with the skirt embroidered with gold thread. It catches the morning light, and supplements it with ruby ​​​​like the rising sun. It has a kind of nobility that is stunning in the world. This person is...

"Sister, you're here!" Shui Lingyu's eyes lit up, she stood up and faced Shui Linglong and sat on the bed. It was probably because she lost her husband, Shui Lingyu's face was a little pale.

 Lu Min suddenly realized that she was the literary test champion who made a splash at the Plum Blossom Appreciation Banquet. No wonder she had such an extraordinary demeanor: "The Crown Princess."

Shui Linglong said politely: "Sister-in-law, there is no need to be polite. This is a family banquet."

Lu Min smiled, still unable to hide her reserve. The maid served tea, holding the water exquisitely in her hand, and said with a smile on her face: "Why are my cousin and third sister so happy talking about it? It makes me happy to tell it."

Lu Min smiled but did not answer, and Shui Lingyu took over the conversation more naturally: "We are talking about how our cousin and eldest brother got drunk even before the banquet started! When the banquet actually starts later, we have to be drunk by the eldest brother-in-law. die?"

Shui Linglong glanced at him and said with a smile: "I didn't see Nian Feng." She was talking about Shui Lingyu and Governor Jiang's son.

Shui Lingyu smiled and said: "Oh, my mother and second sister are also at my grandmother's place. How about we go over and have a look."

Shui Linglong, Shui Lingyu and Lu Min got up and went to Fushouyuan. As soon as they reached the door, Shui Lingqing rushed out: "Sister!"

Shui Lingqing is fifteen years old, and she is taller than Shui Linglong. Her face that was barely pretty at first is now a bit more beautiful. Shui Linglong touched her hair at the temples and said angrily: "A girl who is about to get married is still so childish. Isn't it shameful?"

Lu Min covered her face and laughed: "The eldest cousin and the fifth cousin are really close sisters."

In an elegant and unique room, Shui Minyu is half lying on the bedside. Since his hobby of Longyang was exposed at Xishan College, his career has been ruined. Now, he has to give up even his qualifications as the heir of the Shui family. to whom? Shui Minhui, that bitch! Originally, he had been hiding his stupidity for many years because he didn't want to attract too much attention and thus expose some special hobbies. But just when he made up his mind to become famous, someone intervened and destroyed his reputation and future. Totally destroyed! Let me ask, how can he swallow this breath?

"Don't think that I don't know that those two little beauties were sent to me by Zhuge Yu! They seduced me and I was so fascinated that I couldn't control myself. Then I secretly invited the dean to the classroom... As a result, my mistake turned into an eternal hatred, which made me He's like a useless person, he can't even walk out of the door without feeling comfortable!"

Qin Zhixiao fed the peeled lychee into Shui Minyu's mouth, and said angrily: "Damn Zhuge Yu! Shui Linglong didn't give in too much! I finally figured it out. Shui Lingyu and I slept in Yanlan for no reason. Xuan, wasn’t she the one who sent Liu Lu as bait to lure me there? This couple is really cruel!"

He completely forgot that Shui Minyu had given him the sweat medicine, and it was not Shui Linglong who wanted to stun him. And the reason why he was fooled was because of his own suspicion. Liu Lu didn't hold a knife to his neck and force him to go to Yan Lanxuan. But how could a person like him find fault in himself? He always thinks that he is right and others are wrong. Therefore, Shui Linglong should be hated! To a certain extent, Shui Minyu and he have the same ideological realm, the same class goals, and even the objects of hatred are so unprecedentedly consistent. They are miserable and good people who were killed by the evil Zhuge couple, and they are burdened with burdens that cannot be seen directly. What they have to do is to revolt just like the people who cannot bear the humiliation under tyranny!

Shui Minyu vomited out the lychee core, and a chill filled the corners of her eyes: "It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. I've been waiting for two years, and I finally got an opportunity!"

Qin Zhixiao’s eyebrows twitched: “Cousin, how do you say this?”

Shui Minyu looked at him and smiled maliciously: "Zhuge Yu has ruined my bright future, and I will also destroy everything he cares about most!"

 “Everything he cares about most? What is it?” Qin Zhixiao asked doubtfully.

Shui Minyu didn't seem to hear his words, but said: "Some people, if you don't teach them a lesson, they will never know that there is heaven and there are people outside the world!"

Qin Zhixiao's scalp felt numb: "Cousin, are you sure? Zhuge Yu is not easy to deal with, and it is even more difficult to deal with them since they are here together today."

Shui Minyu raised her hand and carefully painted his handsome eyebrows: "So, cousin, please help me. I don't know if my cousin... wants to be angry or not."

Qin Zhixiao was slightly stunned. Shui Minyu came closer to him and whispered a few words in his ear. Qin Zhixiao suddenly changed his color. Then he glanced at the **** and handsome Shui Minyu, and his eyes sharpened, Shui Linglong, Shui. Linglong, although I don’t have much hatred towards you, and you punished me once, but it wasn’t too bad, but who made you offend your cousin? Then I can only feel sorry!
