Ten years of life and death

fifteen

The son-in-law's mansion is a bit dead silent, this is Feng Shaomin's first feeling when he stepped into the door, butler, has anything happened in the mansion during my absence?

The housekeeper was still thinking about whether to tell Feng Shaomin about the princess making a scene in Taoyuan, but Feng Shaomin asked first, son-in-law, the princess came to the house to make a scene a few days ago, and even cut down all the peach trees in Taoyuan up.

What?Feng Shaomin frowned, then let go, this peach orchard was originally planted for Tianxiang, and now that it has been destroyed, it's fine, she has no intention of looking after them anymore, so let's chop it down, and order the peach orchard to be destroyed Seal it up, and it will be left unused in the future.

Yes, son-in-law, your study room was also messed up by the princess. The princess didn’t let us clean it up, so it kept messing up. The housekeeper walked in front and pushed open the door of the study room. Feng Shaomin walked in and saw the mess of the room by candlelight. , books, inkstones, and pen holders are everywhere, it seems that she will not be able to sleep tonight.

Prince Consort, may I ask the kitchen to prepare some snacks and tea for you?

Well, go for it.

Feng Shaomin took off his slightly wet coat and sat on the chair, squatted down and cleaned up the mess by himself. It turns out that a woman getting angry is so scary. No, isn’t he a woman too? Oh, I’ve been a man for a long time, and I almost forget it She is also a woman herself, alas, self-inflicted, can't live.

Feng Shaomin shook his head and sighed softly, helplessly speechless, glanced at the messy book, and saw the already blurred portrait.

Brother Feng is in love with the princess, a word suddenly rang in his ears.

No, I don't love her, I just feel sorry for her. Feng Shaomin looked towards the door and blurted out these words, but in the empty room, there was no one else except her. Not wanting to clean up anymore, he simply sat on the ground, just staring at the painting in his hand, in a daze.

She could imagine Tianxiang's panic-stricken look that day, if it were her, it would be the same, Xiang'er, what should I do to calm down this farce and return you happiness?

Concubine, the refreshments are ready, the butler brought the refreshments and put them on the table, and helped Feng Shaomin, concubine, the slave will clean up for you, you can rest for a while.

On the table was Feng Shaomin's favorite mung bean cake. Whenever she wanted to study at night, the housekeeper would prepare a stack for her.

Butler, has there been another cook in the mansion?Feng Shaomin took a bite of mung bean cake and asked.

No.

So why doesn't it taste right?

Uh, this, this, the housekeeper became a little confused, this mung bean cake was not the kind that Feng Shaomin usually ate, he thought that all the mung bean cakes were the same, he thought that the son-in-law would not be able to eat it, never thought that Feng Shaomin only took one bite , and ate it.

Son-in-law, this mung bean cake is indeed made by the cook in the mansion, but what you ate before was not made by the cook in the mansion, it was delivered from the princess mansion every day.

Sent from the princess mansion?Feng Shaomin was taken aback.

Yes, for the past two years, the mung bean cakes in the mansion were all sent from the Princess Mansion. The slave asked the little eunuch who delivered the things, and said that the princess didn't let me tell, so the slave didn't dare to ask more.

I see, you go down, Feng Shaomin no longer eats mung bean cakes, his eyes stop on the portrait of Tianxiang by the table, the smiling Tianxiang is already blurred, let Feng Shaomin's beautiful eyes widen With the light on, until it became more and more blurred, and only the outline of a person could be seen, Feng Shaomin closed his sight and laid the white paper again, Xiang'er, all I can give you is the image of you in my heart .

In the morning when I opened my eyes, the sun was quite bright. Liu Qian sent Li Zhaoting to the gate of the city, but she was still a little reluctant, and told a lot of words, lest Li Zhaoting would forget and take care of herself. Zhaoting, slow down on the road, this back and forth It will take half a month, you must take good care of yourself, and tell your brother to pay more attention to your sister-in-law's health, and the doctor must follow the car.

Gentle and caring like Liu Qian, Li Zhaoting can only nod and smile, holding Liu Qian's hand in his arms, Qian'er, we have been married for three years, and it is time to have a child.

uh kid?

Seeing Liu Qian's unresponsive expression, Li Zhaoting stroked her hair lovingly, "Qian'er, wait for me." After speaking, he jumped on his horse and followed the team out of the city.

It wasn't until the team walked away on the official road that Liu Qian turned her gaze back and walked back, but she didn't go home, but walked towards the Prince Consort's Mansion.

When the servants brought Liu Qian into the mansion, Feng Shaomin was picking up the branches cut off by Tianxiang in the Taoyuan. She still wanted to leave something for Tianxiang, so that next spring, it would be a beautiful place again.

Son-in-law, let the servants do these rough jobs, how can you do it yourself?

Feng Shaomin smiled lightly, anyway, I have nothing to do, so I started to do it.

You really have a heart.

In fact, I wish I was an unintentional person. Feng Shaomin stopped what he was doing and went into the pavilion. Brother Liu was ordered back by the emperor. Shaomin didn't help, so my wife wouldn't blame him, would she?

After Liu Qian listened to Feng Shaomin's words, she chuckled lightly, the son-in-law's words were too serious, it was a holy will to order back to elder brother, if he resisted the order and offended the emperor, I'm afraid my Liu family would be wiped out from now on.

It's rare that Mrs. Sister-in-law understands righteousness deeply, and Shaomin admires it.

Liu Qian replied Feng Shaomin's words with a smile, and talked about the purpose of coming, my son-in-law, I have something to ask about today, and I ask my son-in-law to speak frankly.

oh?Mrs. sister-in-law, may I ask?

The son-in-law, do you still remember that day when the five guardians attacked the princess mansion at night?

Remember, Feng Shaomin answered her words without looking at the person in front of him.

I was not looking for the princess that day, but followed the five guardians to the princess mansion, because I discovered a shocking secret.

What secret?

You are Feng Suzhen.

Hahaha, Feng Shaomin laughed out loud, it turned out that his wife still thought Shaomin was just a little girl.

You don't need to admit that everyone has difficulties, but I still want you to seriously consider this issue, the princess, Zhao Ting, and me, the happiness of the three of them depends on you alone.

Mrs. sister-in-law, you keep saying that Shaomin is a daughter, do you have evidence?Besides, I have been married to the princess for three years, and we sleep together every night. Does the princess not know if I am a man or a woman?

Son-in-law, the servant has delivered the painting to the Princess Mansion according to your instructions, and a servant is standing outside the peach garden to report back.

Oh, what did the princess say?

The slave didn't see the princess, but just handed the painting to Miss Xing'er.

I see, you go down, Feng Shaomin waved to the servants.

The princess is a good person, you should also hope that she has a piece of happiness that truly belongs to you.

She is Shaomin's wife, so Shaomin naturally hopes for it, but Shaomin doesn't know about your happiness, Mrs. Li. You and brother Li have been married for three years, but you always mention Feng Suzhen. Wouldn't it be nice to be Mrs. Li with peace of mind?Feng Shaomin asked what was on her mind for a long time. She never understood why Liu Qian always did this. If she regained Feng Suzhen's identity, it would be of no benefit to her.

To tell you the truth, I have been married to Zhao Ting for three years, and we have always been a couple in name only. When the emperor bestowed the marriage that year, I naively thought that I could grow old with Zhao Ting in this life, and I also wholeheartedly thought that he would accept it. My day, but the day I didn't look forward to when I knew the secret that night, I didn't want him to actually be a cheater, you understand?Liu Qian looked at Feng Shaomin sincerely and said.

I understand, but I'm really not Feng Suzhen, I'm Feng Shaomin, the son-in-law of Princess Tianxiang, that's all, Feng Shaomin said firmly, compared to her, such a good woman is the most worthy of Li Zhaoting, She has already wasted Tianxiang's life, and there is no reason to break her happiness any longer.

Son-in-law, the princess was clamoring at the gate of the mansion and refused to come in. She seemed to be drunk.

What?She was drunk, Feng Shaomin's heart tightened, and he ran out in a hurry. At the gate of the mansion, Tianxiang was leaning on the doorway. The smell of alcohol was inversely proportional to the noble temperament on her body, causing passers-by on the road in front of the gate to turn their heads from time to time. Looking around, some people even gathered to point and point.

Princess, what's wrong with you?Feng Shaomin helped Tianxiang to go inside, but was pushed away by Tianxiang. Tianxiang, who was unsteady, staggered and looked up at the plaque on the door, hahaha, Concubine Mansion, Concubine Mansion, Feng Shaomin, Tianxiang pointed to Feng Shaomin, you are my palace Son-in-law, you carry me in.

Princess, you are drunk, I will help you in, and Liu Qian who came out together stepped forward to help Tianxiang.

Oh, Liu Qian, hehe, why are you here?I don't need your help, I want her to carry me in, Tianxiang pushed Liu Qian away, turned around and pointed at Feng Shaomin.

Okay, okay, you can say whatever you want, Feng Shaomin coaxed Tianxiang, and hugged her up, Mrs. Sister-in-law, please go back.

Son-in-law, please think twice about what I said today, when Zhao Ting comes back, everything will be settled.

Mrs. sister-in-law, you think too much, go slowly.

It's been a long time since I saw Tianxiang so drunk, Feng Shaomin couldn't help feeling dissatisfied, why did the people in the princess mansion let her go, what to do if something happened, entered the room and put Tianxiang on the bed, but Tianxiang was still alive He refused to let go, and looked at Feng Shaomin with teary eyes, don't leave me.

I won't leave you, but your face is stained, I'll wipe it off with a towel.

Tianxiang shook her head, I won't wipe it, you don't like to watch it anyway.

I, I don't like to watch it, and there are others who like to watch it, don't treat yourself like this, Feng Shaomin stretched out his hand to break Tianxiang's arm around her neck, and put her away, I didn't sleep well last night, now Just sleep well, I'm here with you.

After falling into bed, coupled with the strength of alcohol, Tianxiang's half-opened eyes were about to close, she moved into the bed, and called Feng Shaomin, you didn't sleep last night, okay, sleep with me, okay?

In the end, he knew he was wrong, and because he had said in his heart that he would do anything for Tianxiang, Feng Shaomin took off his shoes and slept next to Tianxiang. Now I will sleep with you, so you can rest assured.

Tianxiang, who was almost in a daze, reached out with a hand, caressing Feng Shaomin's side face, did you leave a certain place in your heart to me?

Pulling off Tianxiang's hand and putting it back under the quilt, Feng Shaomin couldn't help feeling that he gently embraced Tianxiang in his arms, you were drunk and talked nonsense.

Don't say that I'm drunk like Brother Jian, I'm sober, Tianxiang still has her eyes closed.

It turns out that you were with him last night, and I was still wondering why Mammy made you drink so much.

Where do you think we were last night?

Can not guess.

We went to Yihong Courtyard to drink, hahaha, the girls there are all beautiful, much prettier than the maids in the palace, hahaha, I will take you there some other day, you don’t even know how fun it is, hahaha.

Tianxiang's murmur gradually became smaller, and finally became silent. Looking at the sleeping person in his arms, Feng Shaomin, impulsively, kissed Tianxiang's mouth lightly, probably because he was not asleep. Feeling something touched the corner of her mouth, Tianxiang rubbed against the edge of the quilt, and turned her face to the inner bed.

Feng Shaomin noticed Tianxiang's little tricks, and couldn't help pursing her lips and smiling. If she was really a man and married like this, she would be a fairy mandarin duck, and she would not envy her!It's just a pity that the world is deceiving, and there is a fate and a share, but it is a wrong fate!

It was nearly two o'clock, and the candles in the room gradually dimmed. Feng Shaomin knew that it was time to change the candles, but he still lay still on the bed. She made an excuse for herself, Tianxiang was sleeping beside her, and would disturb her at any time. If it's okay during the day, if Tianxiang wakes up at night, how can she get along with her peacefully.

The candlelight was getting weaker and weaker. It was almost three o'clock, and the room suddenly became dark. After two or three hours, the sky would be bright again. Feng Shaomin pulled up the quilt, closed his eyes and fell asleep peacefully, but she Before he fell asleep, he was awakened by a scream.

ah!Why is it so dark!Taoer!Taoer!The screaming in the middle of the night did not come from outside, but from the fragrance of heaven in my ears.

It's me, Feng Shaomin hurriedly got up and touched Tianxiang in the dark, never thought that Tianxiang in the dark didn't react, only heard someone talking around him, and then screamed and moved his hands and feet, who is talking where?How bold!

Feng Shaomin only cared about comforting Tianxiang who was in a panic, but he couldn't see Tianxiang's kicked foot, and fell under the bed at once. The sound of pain came from the ground. The sound was another punch and kick.

Princess, I'm Feng Shaomin, stop beating me.

The voice from the darkness made Tianxiang stop immediately, where am I?Why don't you light a candle?

Princess, this is the consort's mansion, my room, you stand still, I'll go to light candles, Feng Shaomin groped to light the candles while stroking the painful place from Tianxiang's kick.

Forget it, no need to order, since you are here, I have nothing to be afraid of, Tianxiang groped for the edge of the bed and sat down, I must have hurt you just now.

It's okay, it's my fault, waking up in an unfamiliar environment, it's dark again, it's normal for you to be prepared, Feng Shaomin obeyed Tianxiang's words and stopped looking for candles.

Why am I here?Tianxiang obviously couldn't remember what happened during the day.

You were drunk during the day, came to the mansion to look for me, and slept here.

I am drunk?Tianxiang murmured in her heart, remembering the secret in her heart, and became nervous, so she timidly asked Feng Shaomin, did I say anything that shouldn't be said?

Feng Shaomin thought for a while, and answered Tianxiang's words, but you didn't say anything, just lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

That's good, Tianxiang stroked her tense chest just now, took a long breath, and you come and sit down too.

No, there are still two hours before dawn, you can go to sleep again, I will go to the study to read for a while, and I will take you back at dawn, in order to avoid unnecessary embarrassment in the future, Feng Shaomin consciously groped and went to the outhouse.

During the day, the two faced each other, because there was hatred and guilt in their hearts, so the atmosphere was always full of fire, but the two people who were in the dark couldn't see each other, even if there was hatred and guilt in their hearts, it should calm down for a while.

Tianxiang, who was naturally proud, didn't say any more words to persuade her to stay. In the dark, she heard the sound of the door opening and closing, and she felt extremely lonely. Should she stop being so cruel to herself?

Besides, Feng Shaomin went to the study to read, turned a few pages but didn't care to read, the book would always show the fragrance of heaven when he was asleep during the day, so delicate and cute, when he got up and took a bath in cold water, his heart felt aching, could it be just right The wound on her chest was probably kicked open by Tianxiang again, so Feng Shaomin opened the screen, took off her clothes to look at the wound on her heart, but when she saw her chest, her brows were knit together, and her beautiful eyes were also blurred. After all, she is just a daughter, and she also hopes to be loved and cared for by others, but God is blind and pushes her to this position.

If I leave, where should I go?Feng Shaomin asked himself, looking helplessly at the still dark night outside.
