After rebirth, the Prime Minister's wife always wanted to leave her father behind and keep her

Seeing that she didn't answer, Cui Yuanqing asked again calmly: "Do you regret marrying me?"

Cheng Songan turned around and looked at the tablet of Cui Taigong without saying a word.

Cui Yuanqing stepped into the ancestral hall, stood beside her, glanced at the ancestral tablets, and finally fixed his eyes on the three incense sticks that had not yet burned out.

He still persisted in asking this question: "What are you regretting?"

Cheng Songan gently pulled out the burrs in the futon and said, "I regret returning to Beijing from Yizhou."

Cui Yuanqing took a deep breath almost imperceptibly, as if waiting for her to continue.

"It would be great if I could stay in Yizhou forever. No one there asked me to be gentle, prudent, dignified and generous, and no one dared to bully me. At that time, I was the only one who bullied others. Lu Qingshan was the third place winner of the martial arts exam. You don't know, I beat him up when I was a kid, but he still came to me eagerly to make peace with me, right?"

When thinking of those carefree days, Cheng Songan's heart softened and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

Cui Yuanqing sneered: "If it was in Yizhou, maybe you would have been promised to Lu Qingshan."

Cheng Songan said calmly: "Maybe."

Cui Yuanqing said nothing.

Cheng Songan smiled again: "It doesn't matter who you marry."

Not that person after all.

Cui Yuanqing's eyes were as normal as usual, and there seemed to be no fluctuation.

Cheng Songan looked up at him and asked, "My Lord, the poison has been cured, why are you still here?"

Cui Yuanqing seemed a little unhappy and said coldly: "Didn't you ask your maid to find me?"

Cheng Songan then remembered that Haitang said she wanted to go find him. How could she know that he would come if she went to find him? In her previous life, she was afraid of causing trouble for him. She handled all the affairs in the harem by herself. If she was wronged, she would silently endure it. She felt that this was how a court lady should be treated.

It turns out that Cui Yuanqing can be invited. Does he care about her? Cheng Songan couldn't help thinking so, but the next moment, he stopped himself. If he really cared, why didn't he ask her?

She smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly: "Oh, I forgot, and I didn't expect you to come."

Cui Yuanqing looked into her watery eyes calmly and asked, "Why do you think so?"

Cheng Songan wanted to laugh: "Sir, where did you go this morning?"

Cui Yuanqing paused, parted his lips, and held back from saying anything.

Cheng Songan shook her head in relief. She was not completely unaware of what happened when Cui Yuanqing left early in the morning. Sibian was talking to him outside the window, and she vaguely heard it. It was related to Cheng Wanxin, and Cui Yuanqing left immediately.

But at that time she was too tired, her whole body was sore, and she had no energy to think about these things. Now her mind was very clear, and she naturally knew that Cui Yuanqing was trying every means to pass the message to Cheng Wanxin.

Cheng Songan knelt upright, lowered his eyes and said to Cui Yuanqing: "My lord, please go back. I'm fine."

Cui Yuanqing did not leave, but sat down on the mat beside her. His posture was always upright, and even when sitting on the mat, he still looked dignified and inviolable. His tenderness and affection last night seemed like a dream.

Wake up from the dream, it's still the same.

Cheng Songan ignored his actions and moved his numb knees.

Cui Yuanqing said casually, "It is mentioned in Volume 49 of the Records of the Grand Historian that when he was in the service of Xu Fu, he despised Ji and said that she would give birth to an emperor. When Bao first joined the Han to attack Chu, he was delighted when he heard Xu Fu's words, so he turned his back on the Han, remained neutral, and then made peace with Chu."

Cheng Songan smiled slyly: "Are you going to read to me, sir? I have never liked to learn these things since I was a child, and I don't understand them."

Cui Yuanqing snorted coldly: "If you don't understand, I will explain it to you."

Cheng Songan smiled and said, "Okay."

Cui Yuanqing ignored her pretending to be stupid and talked lightly about Wei Bao's mother-in-law Wei Ai in the Han Dynasty, who asked the female fortune teller Xu Fu at that time to read the fortune of Wei Wang Bao's wife Bo Ji.

After meeting Bo Ji, Xu Fei said, "Madam, you have the appearance of being rich and noble. If you give birth to a child in the future, he will surely become the emperor."

King Bao of Wei was overjoyed and decided to betray Liu Bang and join Xiang Yu's camp.

He finished speaking patiently, then stared at Cheng Songan and asked, "Do you understand?"

Cheng Songan smiled and said, "I understand, but I don't know why you told me this story?"

Cui Yuanqing looked into her eyes, which were as big and bright as black grapes, and a little misty. He suddenly remembered how she had cried and scolded him last night. He felt as if there was a place in his chest that was slightly pulling, making his heart feel a little swollen and numb.

He turned his gaze away from her face and said calmly, "You already knew the identity of the Princess of Xiang, so you used your Shu brocade to get close to her. Last night you also instructed Ning Zhao to please His Majesty. Do you mean to betray Xiang and belittle Ji?"

Cheng Songan's heart was pounding. His eyes were so sharp that he could see through her plans at a glance. However, he didn't know her purpose. Besides, what she did was actually helping him because he was supporting King Xiang.

Therefore, Cheng Songan refused to admit it and said jokingly, "I didn't know that you thought so highly of me. How dare I compare myself to Xu Fu? It's just a coincidence. I've already said that I like the child of Prince Ning Zhao. I saw that he missed his grandfather, so I taught him to behave well."

Cui Yuanqing didn't believe it, but he didn't expose her.

Cheng Songan added: "Wei Wang Bao was quickly defeated by Han Xin and eventually killed by the Han army. How can you compare him to Xiang Wang? Besides, Bo Ji later married Liu Bang and gave birth to Dai Wang, who was later called Emperor Wen of Han. Xiang Wang's wife was definitely not Bo Ji."

Cui Yuanqing sneered: "Didn't you say you don't like reading and don't understand these things?"

Cheng Songan realized that he had said something wrong, so he quietly lowered his head, stuck out his tongue, and pouted.

Cui Yuanqing noticed her movements and sneered again: "You know what I mean, you are just making up stories!"

Cheng Songan made up his mind not to say anything more to him and still insisted on what he had said just now. Later, he simply shut up and ignored him again.

Cui Yuanqing stood up, looked down at her head, and said coldly: "Since grandma told you to kneel, you should kneel for a full hour!"

Cheng Songan snorted. What if he came? It was still the same. She hung her head nonchalantly, moved her legs that were a little painful from kneeling, changed her position, and continued kneeling.

Cui Yuanqing left the ancestral hall without looking back.

Haitang hoped that Cui Yuanqing would plead for her girl, which would at least provide some comfort. However, he came out alone with a cold face, looking disappointed, and rubbed Cheng Songan's legs.

During this period, Zhang also sent people to comfort her and brought tea and snacks.

Haitang muttered, "You're pretending to be kind again now."

Cheng Songan shook his head and asked, "Silly girl, haven't you figured it out yet?"

Haitang was puzzled: "What?"

Cheng Songan smiled and shook his head: "Just figure it out slowly."

After kneeling for an hour, Xing'er from Chunhui Garden arrived as promised. She went straight to Cheng Song'an and asked, "The old lady asked me to ask, does the young mistress admit her fault?"

Cheng Songan smiled slightly: "No."
