Rebirth of the Noble Concubine

Chapter 71 71. Yunxiao

"Miss, your hair grows well. I heard the old nuns at home say that hair growing well indicates a person's good fortune, and he will be able to get a good husband when he gets married in the future."

After saying this, Feng Jinyao felt depressed. She suddenly thought of Wen Mengsheng, and most of her good mood when she looked at the moonlight disappeared.

A wishful man? She didn't think so.

She suffered so much in her previous life, but she didn't even think about getting married in this life.

When I met Xu Mingyue today, her words woke me up. After all the revenge she deserves is avenged, can she also devote her love to the mountains and rivers and be a carefree idler?

She doesn't want to be confined to the back house, nor does she want to compete in the ring with her husband and concubines. Living such a life once is enough. In this life, she wants to live it happily.

On the treetops in the moonlight, in the Yunxiao Pavilion not far away, Xiao Tingyi stood with his hands behind his hands, looking into the distance.

Under the moonlight, his face was no longer pale, but more ruddy with blood. He was only wearing a black brocade shirt, and there was no charcoal fire in the Yunxiao Pavilion.

The strange thing is that he, who used to cough at any time in the past, is now very stable.

Yunxiao Pavilion stands in the sky, overlooking the entire Jin Dynasty, and thousands of lights are brightly lit.

He often stood here for an hour, watching the people living peacefully and peacefully, and felt that he had lived up to his father's entrustment.

Not many people in the world know that Xiao Tingyi's foreign residence is hidden in the forest in the backyard of Fahua Temple.

It's cold in the mountains, but his yard has the warmth of the ground. It's like spring all year round, and it's not disturbed by the mountain wind or disturbed by outsiders.

After he returned from the battlefield in South Vietnam, outsiders always thought that he was recuperating in the palace. In fact, this was not the case. He had already escaped from his golden cicada shell and came here.

It is precisely through the warm air here and Dr. Zhang's wonderful rejuvenation skills that I can take good care of my body.

He is still pretending to be ill now, but it is just a way to deceive Emperor Qi, otherwise he would have to install many concubines in his palace to carry on the "incense".

To your suspicious Majesty, a sick prince with no wife and no offspring is not much of a threat even if he has a large army.

Too lazy to spend his time on intrigues, he simply claimed that he was ill, so his surroundings were very clean these years.

The small courtyard lent to the Xu family was just a cover for the outside world. Occasionally, people would come to deliver food, but they didn't know that the food was delivered to Xiao Tingyi's foreign residence.

Separated by a forest, the outside world has used the Five Elements and Bagua technique to seal the forest. Ordinary people cannot find the entrance to the outer house, so after so many years, very few people know about this place.

When he saw the lights gradually extinguished, Xiao Tingyi retracted his gaze and looked into the distance. Unexpectedly, he inadvertently saw the scene in the small courtyard illuminated by the lanterns.

It's really unexpected to see her here.

Could it be that a girl from the Xu family left her here?

Although the two were far apart, Xiao Tingyi saw them clearly.

It was clear that she looked like the time had passed peacefully, but the expression on that girl's face was filled with unspeakable sadness.

Sometimes those eyes are as deep as a pool of water with no bottom, and sometimes they are as clear as a stream that makes people unable to take their eyes away.

After living for almost thirty years, he was interested in outsiders for the first time.

I looked at it quietly for a while under the moonlight, and somehow I came up with the idea that none of these lights could match the bright eyes of the girl in front of the window in the small courtyard.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a faint sound of footsteps behind him. He knew who it was without even turning around, and said softly, "Here he comes."

Yang Zhao held the military intelligence that had just been sent to him and stood outside the pavilion. He was not surprised at all that Xiao Tingyi had such amazing ears, "Your Majesty, this is the military intelligence that was just sent."

Xiao Tingyi withdrew his attention from Feng Jinyao, turned around and walked towards Yang Zhao.

After taking the military newspaper and reading it, he looked calm, but then asked, "How is the investigation of the Zhu family's affairs?"

"Replying to the prince, the spies we installed in the Zhu family have not yet conveyed the news. We only heard that in May next year, the eldest son of the Zhu family will get married, and he will marry a daughter of the Jinling Chi family."

"He is quite good at calculating. After borrowing the wealth of the Chi family, even if he is found guilty of corruption, he will be able to get away with it."

Xiao Tingyi said with ridicule, "Send an order to get the evidence of his corruption in Caosi before May."

"Yes." Yang Zhao got the order, turned around and left to make arrangements.

I want to marry the Chi family and take refuge, dream!

The military newspaper was held in his palm and turned into ashes with just a slight rub, like a flying goose leaving no trace.

When Xiao Tingyi turned around and looked at the small courtyard again, the beautiful woman by the window was no longer there, and the lights inside were dimmed a bit. Looking at it like this, he was probably resting.

He retracted his eyes and looked into the distance again. It was as thick as ink that couldn't be melted away, and there was even more murderous intent in it.

It has been many years since the founding of the Jin Dynasty, and after several dynasties have changed, the forces have become very complicated. Power breeds desire, and it also breeds many corrupt officials.

In the past two years, he has been focusing on investigating corruption in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Cao Divisions, but he has repeatedly missed the point.

The huge Thirteenth Water Transport Division and the commanders of dozens of state capitals along the way are like a dragnet, firmly rooted in it, and neither needles can penetrate it nor oil can pour into it.

It's hard to catch a Zhu family member, so naturally he won't let him go.

Since they are working together and refusing to give up, let's break it open from the inside, so that it can be tidied up more neatly.

Thinking about this, the idea of ​​the love between children was forgotten again, and he looked far towards Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

The tall figure stands in Yunxiao Pavilion, taking advantage of the mountain to overlook the world, without feeling desolate and lonely.

In the main room, the Xu family's orange cat slept soundly. Mrs. Xu was afraid that the girls would be lonely here, so she kept the cat here specially.

Cats are the most spiritual and can give early warning if something happens.

Two lights were turned off, the whole room became softer, and the night was getting darker outside.

Feng Jinyao looked at its sleeping posture and couldn't help but think of Chi Ling at home, with a smile in her eyes. She didn't know what happened to the little thing?

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw a fiery red figure burst in from outside the door, and suddenly threw himself into Feng Jinyao's arms, whimpering, as if asking why he had to leave it alone.

For a moment, Feng Jinyao was amazed. When she saw the "person", her whole heart was melted by it.

"I didn't leave you, I just went out to play for a few days." He raised it in front of his eyes and comforted her softly.

"But why did you come here? If Xiangqiu finds out that you are not at home tomorrow, won't she be anxious?"

No matter what, you can't leave for so long in the future!

Although she didn't say anything, her coquettish look made her meaning clear. Feng Jinyao had no choice but to call Yun Xu.

"Send someone back tomorrow morning to send a message and tell Xiangqiu that Chi Ling has escaped."
