When the Emperor Dresses Up as a Man and Wife of a Rich Family [Ancient and Modern]

"Ningshan County?" Rong Chengyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It takes more than seven hours to get to Ningshan County by high-speed train. If you book a flight ticket, it will be tonight at the earliest."

He pulled Qi Yan to sit down, "Ayan, what do you want to do in Ningshan County? To see this ancient tomb?"

"Well, I must go!" Qi Yan showed a rare haste on his face, "Do you not have time to accompany me? It's okay, I can go by myself!"

"No, what's so special about the ancient tomb? You have to go there yourself?"

"You don't understand, this tomb is very important, I must go!"

Rong Chengyu couldn't resist him, so he had to take him home first.

In the car, Qi Yan focused on swiping her phone.Rong Chengyu glanced sideways a few times, watching him open different news pages, all of them were searching for news about the ancient tomb.

After entering the room, Rong Chengyu found that his eyes were still unable to leave the phone, and he suddenly became a little angry.

"Ayan, don't look at it."

He stretched out his hand to block his sight, but was pushed away by Qi Yan.

The surrounding air became a little dignified.

"I..." Qi Yan seemed to realize that he was overreacting, he looked away uncomfortably, "I have no other meaning."

Rong Chengyu directly pulled him over, and the two faced each other. He looked deeply into Qi Yan's eyes, "Ayan, tell me the truth, what is so special about this ancient tomb that you care so much about?"

Qi Yan shook her lips, Rong Chengyu said again emphatically: "I want to hear you tell the truth!"

the truth?Qi Yan's heart trembled, he stared blankly at Rong Chengyu, but his heart was filled with turmoil.

Seeing him like this, Rong Chengyu was even more certain that Qi Yan must be hiding a secret from him.In the past, he could tell himself that everyone has their own privacy, and it doesn't matter what Qi Yan doesn't want to say, as long as the two of them truly love each other.

But now it's different!He had never seen Qi Yan so anxious and bewildered.After Qi Yan saw the news just now, the haste he showed made him feel panicked like never before.

A strong sense of crisis invaded his whole body in an instant, what made Qi Yan so abnormal?Rong Chengyu had a hunch that this answer would be the key to unraveling the mystery about Qi Yan.

But at this moment, he regretted it again.He was afraid that Qi Yan's answer would...

what will happen?

For a long time, the problem that Rong Chengyu had been avoiding deep in his heart finally surfaced. He was afraid that the truth about Qi Yan would make him and Qi Yan... torn apart.

Even though facing Qi Yan Tancheng, they decided to stay together for the rest of their lives.But the more we get along day and night, the more Rong Chengyu can detect all kinds of contradictions and irrationality in him from various details.

Not to mention the things Xie Qiu showed him, just take the meal just now as an example. Qi Yan held up his chopsticks to pick up vegetables and behaved properly. This kind of aristocratic etiquette that is born in the bones, how can a poor kid who can't even go to college can do it? Can it be imitated?Even the children of rich families he came into contact with may not have Qi Yan's noble spirit!

So, what is that shocking secret hidden in Qi Yan?

Qi Yan looked at him, and his mind was also caught in the battle between heaven and man.

A voice told him not to tell the truth to Rong Chengyu.The two of them are now inseparable, and they have decided to stay together for a lifetime!Why tell him that he is not the "Qi Yan" he married at all.

But another voice retorted righteously, Rong Chengyu has the right to know the truth.Is he going to hide this fact from him for the rest of his life?Besides, Rong Chengyu is not a fool. He must have seen the clues about playing the piano in the manor before, but he has been reluctant to ask. Now this is a great opportunity...

When it is broken, it will be chaotic.Qi Yan, you are always decisive, why are you hesitant this time?

He asked himself a question, finally bit his lower lip, and decided to confess everything to him.

"I……"

As soon as he spoke, the phone in Rong Chengyu's pocket rang again.

The melodious bell rang for tens of seconds, Rong Chengyu frowned, and he persisted until the last second before pressing the answer button.

"Mr. Rong, the situation is urgent. West Africa..."

Qi Yan vaguely heard Li Xinglan's voice on the other end of the phone, and saw Rong Chengyu's face getting more and more serious.

"Okay, you change your ticket immediately, the sooner the better!"

After hanging up the phone, Rong Chengyu had a complicated expression on his face. He pondered for a long time before he said, "Several heads of the West African purchasing factory have been held hostage by local terrorists. Now the situation is a race against the clock, and I must rush there immediately."

He took a deep look at Qi Yan, "Ayan, wait for me to come back, okay?"

Qi Yan knew that what he said was waiting for him to come back before telling him the secrets about him.

Li Xinglan's phone call was like a buffer, and the tense atmosphere between the two of them dissipated quite a bit.

Qi Yan took the initiative to snuggle into his arms, "Well, South Africa is so dangerous, you have to be careful."

As proud as Qi Yan, it is rare to make such a gentle gesture now, and Rong Chengyu's mood also eased.

He hugged him tightly and kissed him a few times.

"Ayan, you just have to remember, no matter what your 'truth' is, I will always love you. Rong Chengyu will only love Qi Yan forever, you know?"

Qi Yan's eyelids were lightly closed, and Na Na replied "Yes".

Rong Chengyu left.

Qi Yan stayed at home alone. He had just sent Rong Chengyu away, and he couldn't help turning on the computer again.

The discovery of an unknown ancient tomb by the national archaeological team in Ningshan County has become a hot topic on the Internet. There is now a unified name for this tomb: Tomb of General Ningshan.

The tomb of General Ningshan is currently in the initial stage of excavation, and the biographical information of the owner of the tomb is still kept secret. The official name of the tomb owner is Xie Rong.

Is it a coincidence?The initial shock and excitement cooled down, and Qi Yan began to think about it calmly.

Long after his soul traveled through time and space and came to this "Qi Yan" who looked exactly like a woman, he asked He Tiantian to buy a lot of history books back.After searching in many ways, he found that although the history of this world was the same as the one he was in, the "Dasui" dynasty had never been recorded in the history books.

If the Great Sui Dynasty did not exist, then how could Xie Rong's general's tomb appear!

No, it seems that I still have to go to Ningshan County.

Qi Yan had never tried to leave Ming City alone, so this time he dragged Fang Ming along.

Fang Ming thought that Qi Yan's so-called visit to the ancient tomb was actually to go out to relax, so he asked for leave and went there together.

Ningshan County is a well-known poverty-stricken county in the country, with poor mountains and bad waters, and no tourist attractions.On weekdays, there are very few people who come here.

Since the archaeological team dug up the general's tomb, a large number of news magazine reporters at home and abroad, as well as history lovers flocked to it.

After Qi Yan and the others arrived, they booked a small hotel after many twists and turns.

As soon as she put down the suitcase, Qi Yan immediately planned to visit the general's tomb.After several times of persuasion by Fang Ming, he agreed to go after dinner.

They ate a quick meal at the food stall, and spent more than 30 yuan to take a taxi to the scene, where a large number of reporters had already gathered.

In order to ensure that the ancient tomb is not destroyed, staff have been arranged to guard it 500 meters away from the entrance of the tomb, and Qi Yan and the others have no way to approach it.

"What to do, is there any way I can go in and have a look?"

When Fang Ming heard this, his eyes stared straight, "Don't be kidding, this ancient tomb is full of cultural relics, who will let us in?"

After coming to this world for so long, Qi Yan hated for the first time that the original owner of this body was so humble!If it was in Dasui, he would have ordered all these people to get out of the way.

But now he has nothing to do...

"Fang Ming, help me!" Qi Yan grabbed his arm, eyes full of eagerness.

Although he didn't know why Qi Yan was so concerned about this ancient tomb, Fang Ming could see that he was really anxious, and he had an idea, and suddenly thought: "That's right! I knew Wu Zhi before, he was also from Ningshan County, I called and asked him if there was any way out."

"Okay, you can contact him quickly, and you can pay as much as you want!"

Fang Ming took out his phone, and after working for a while, he finally found Wu Zhi's phone number.

"Hey, Brother Luo! It's me, Xiao Fang. I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that Director Xu has found you again for his new play... I, I'm still the same..."

The two exchanged pleasantries for more than a minute before Fang Ming got to the point, "Brother Luo, that's it. I have a brother who is a fan of history. Didn't you dug up a general's tomb in Ningshan recently, but this place is now being People from the archaeological team surrounded him, and they wanted to ask if you could help him and go into the tomb to have a look?"

"...No way? Brother Luo, please help! My brother is also very fascinated by the general's tomb now. He has no special purpose, just wants to go in and have a look, to satisfy his curiosity. He can't take pictures, and he can't tell the public If you leak what you see here, you should treat it as a good deed and help him!"

"...Okay, okay, we will do as you say. Thank you, I will treat you to a good meal when I come to Mingcheng later!"

Fang Ming hung up the phone, Qi Yan hurriedly asked: "How is it, is your friend able to do something?"

"Brother Luo said that the general's tomb is now a key guarded place by the government, and no one can approach it without approval. However, everything dug out from here will be sent to the West City Museum. He has an old classmate in the museum. You can ask this classmate about everything.”

Qi Yan finally showed her first smile today, "It's not too late, then let's go find him."

The Xicheng Museum is only an hour's drive from Ningshan County. As soon as they entered the museum, they immediately found Brother Luo's old classmate.

Brother Luo's old classmate, Brother Chen, is the administrator of the museum. Before they came, it was obvious that Brother Luo had already greeted Brother Chen.After exchanging pleasantries, Brother Chen revealed embarrassment in his words.

Fang Ming has been in society for a long time, so of course he knows what the other party means.As soon as he took out his wallet, Qi Yan immediately understood.He simply took out 2000 yuan and stuffed it into Brother Chen's hands. Brother Chen was also surprised when he got the money.

Good guy!This shot is really generous!

After taking the money, it would be easy to handle things. Brother Chen led them quietly to the studio behind the museum.

"The few cultural relics that have been unearthed are temporarily placed inside, but they can only be seen from a distance. You can't take pictures, let alone touch or touch them. It's agreed to just look at them and leave..."

"Okay, okay, don't worry, Brother Chen, let's just take a look."

Under the dim light, Qi Yan could see those things stored in the glass cabinet from a distance.

Time has eroded the original appearance of these items, but in Qi Yan's mind, they can be restored one by one.

That's right, he has seen all these things!That was the funerary object he handpicked to be placed in Xie Rong's tomb!

He stared fixedly at the painting in the middle, and a crystal tear suddenly ran across his cheek.

"Okay, Brother Chen, let's take another look and leave!"

As soon as Fang Ming turned his head, he was startled by Qi Yan, "Ayan, what's wrong with you?"

Well done, how many cultural relics did you see crying?

Qi Yan's vision was gradually blurred by the mist, but the poem on the painting seemed to be clearly visible.

"Zi's Qingyang, Yangqi's face..."

Xie Rong, it's really you!

When Rong Chengyu got off the plane, he didn't even have time to go home, so he rushed to Rongsheng Building immediately.

"Mr. Rong, Mr. Jacks from the United States is already waiting for you in the conference room." As soon as he opened the door of the office, the secretary brought in the materials.

By the time he finished his emergency meeting with his American client, it was already the beginning of the night.When he returned to the office, he found that someone was already waiting for him inside.

"Yongxi?"

"Boss Rong!"

When Rong Xi saw him, he quickly stood up.

"Are you in a hurry?"

Rong Xi's expression was full of uneasiness, Rong Chengyu quickly calculated in his heart, and found that there should be no changes in the HR department recently.

"Mr. Rong, can you contact Qi Yan?"

Hearing this, Rong Chengyu's hand that loosened his tie suddenly stopped.

"what do you mean?"

"Qi Yan...he hasn't come to work for more than a week!"

As early as the first day when Qi Yan was absent from work, Rong Xi had already called, but the reply he got was "He is out of town now, and it is not convenient for him to come back." At the same time, Qi Yan took a one-week leave.

In the past week, Rong Xi stopped calling several times to ask him what happened to Gao Xing and if he needed his help.But Qi Yan seemed to be very busy, and every time she connected, she only chatted a few words in a hurry.He neither told Rong Xi where he was now, nor did he mention why he asked for leave.

Rong Xi's whole heart was full of ups and downs. He knew Qi Yan's character, and with his serious, meticulous, and responsible work attitude, he absolutely believed that Qi Yan must have encountered some major event before continuing to work. Asked for so many days of leave, and kept silent about the reason for the leave.

But he had no other way to find Qi Yan other than calling.

When Rong Chengyu heard these words, his heart skipped a beat.

"Qi Yan didn't come to work for a week? Then where did he go?"

Rong Xi smiled bitterly, "Mr. Rong, I thought you would know better than me."

Rong Chengyu had no idea.As soon as he arrived in West Africa, he sent a message to Qi Yan, but only received a sentence from the other party, "Okay, be careful."

Later, in order to deal with the emergency in West Africa, he was so busy that he almost forgot to eat three meals.Not to mention that the signal in South Africa is not good, and sometimes you can't even make a phone call.

"My mobile phone signal is not good in West Africa, and I haven't contacted him for nearly a week."

"Mr. Rong, why don't you call and ask, Qi Yan... I think it's a bit strange that he asked for leave."

Rong Xi didn't need to say much, Rong Chengyu opened his cell phone and called Qi Yan without even thinking about it.

"Beep beep..."

It took almost the last second for the call to be connected.

"Hello..." Qi Yan's tired voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Ayan! I'm back to Ming City, where are you?"

"You're back." The person on the other end of the phone paused for a moment before replying quietly, "I... am in Ningshan County."

Ningshan County?General's Tomb!

Rong Chengyu's mind immediately flashed the name he saw on TV.

"You ran there alone? Didn't I say wait for me to come back?"

"I'm not alone, I came with Fang Ming."

Just by listening to the voice, Rong Chengyu can tell that there is something wrong with Qi Yan's current state.

"Stop talking, you'd better come back first."

"No." The voice on the other end of the phone was firm, "I won't go back for now."

"Not coming back? What are you doing over there, waiting to watch the archaeological team dig the ancient tomb?"

Reminiscent of Qi Yan's obsession with the ancient tomb before he left, Rong Chengyu's guess is not unreasonable.

No, it's possible that Qi Yan planned it that way!

"Chengyu, I'm in a mess right now. I...will stay here for a while, you can talk about it when I go back."

Rong Chengyu wanted to speak, but the other party hung up the phone hastily.

He is really for the general's tomb!There was a voice in Rong Chengyu's heart that was screaming frantically.

Why, what secret is hidden in the general's tomb?

His whole heart kept sinking, and for the first time, Rong Chengyu felt that Qi Yan was like a kite with a broken string, and he seemed to be unable to pull it back.

"Mr. Rong, what did you just say about the ancient tomb? Where did Qi Yan go?"

Rong Xi also looked anxious, Rong Chengyu stared at him for a few seconds, and finally pressed the landline directly.

"Alice, help me book the fastest ticket to West City! The sooner the better!"

West Side?Tomb?

Rong Xi immediately thought of it, "Mr. Rong, Qi Yan, is he going to see the 'Tomb of General Ningshan'?"

Recently, news about the "Tomb of General Ningshan" has been reported everywhere on TV and the Internet. Although Rong Xi didn't read it carefully, he knew something about it.

Rong Chengyu nodded, "That's right. I will go to Ningshan County later, and I will definitely bring Qi Yan back."

"That's good."

Rong Xi pulled out a forced smile, but there was another calculation in his heart.

After landing at Xicheng Airport, Rong Chengyu hailed two taxis, and after running for more than three hours, he finally arrived in Ningshan County before sunset.

As soon as he got out of the car, he called Qi Yan, but unexpectedly, it was the female voice familiar to people all over the country: "I'm sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off. Sorry..."

Pressing the green hang-up button with her fingertips, Rong Chengyu's fingers wandered through the address book, and finally clicked on "Fang Ming"'s business card.

He had never exchanged cell phone numbers with Fang Ming.The reason why Fang Ming's number was stored was because Qi Yan lived with him, and he was afraid that if he couldn't find Qi Yan one day, he would still be able to find someone from Fang Ming.

"Hello."

"Fang Ming, I'm Rong Chengyu."

The other party obviously paused for a few seconds before shouting, "It's you? Why are you calling me?"

Ignoring the strong hostility in the other party's tone, Rong Chengyu asked straight to the point: "Is Qi Yan by your side? You let him listen to the phone!"

"Hey, Rong, do you speak like that? What do you think of me as a servant of your Rong family? Let me tell you that I..."

"Fang Ming!" Rong Chengyu yelled at him heavily, "I don't have time to play tricks with you now, Qi Yan has a problem with his condition, you hurry up and ask him to answer the phone, his phone is out of battery."

There was an apparent silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds before finally speaking: "Wait, I'll give him the phone."

"Hey……"

This person who can answer the phone is finally the person he has been thinking about.

"Ayan, where are you?"

"I...we are in Ningshan County."

"I know you are in Ningshan County, so where do you live in Ningshan County?"

"...Chengyu, let's talk about it when I return to Mingcheng."

Qi Yan is like this now, how can Rong Chengyu rest assured that he is here.

"I have arrived in Ningshan County, tell me your exact location."

"You..." Qi Yan's words were full of surprise, "You really don't need to..."

Then he sighed again, "Come on, we're at the Guest House in Ningshan County."

Ningshan County Guest House was built in the 80s of last century. The mottled walls look very old, but this is already the best hotel in the area.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see a table full of photos.

"Ayan?"

The person sitting at the table raised his head, but his appearance surprised Rong Chengyu.

The fair and jade-like face a week ago not only lost a lot of weight, but also showed a lot of stubble.

Such Qi Yan looks like a down and out wanderer.

"You came."

Qi Yan's tone was calm, not at all the joy of reunion between husband and wife.

"How did you do this?" Rong Chengyu quickly stepped forward to look at him carefully, only to find that he was extremely thin.

"Have you not eaten recently? I haven't seen you for a week, and you're almost skinny!"

He was anxious and distressed.But Qi Yan didn't seem to care at all, "I'm fine."

His hand was holding down a photo, Rong Chengyu shifted his gaze to the photo, inside was a dilapidated ancient painting, only some lines and handwriting could be vaguely seen.

"You stayed here just to see these?"

Rong Chengyu's eyes were full of disbelief, "What's the secret behind these things? Is it worth your time and energy to study?"

Qi Yan didn't speak, but started to tidy up the scattered photos on the table.

An indescribable grievance annoyed Rong Chengyu, he pressed Qi Yan's hand, "That's enough, you stop."

This low growl instantly dropped the atmosphere to freezing point.

No matter how nervous Fang Ming was, he knew that the atmosphere here was not right, so he quickly found an excuse to leave.

"Well...you haven't eaten yet, right? I'm going to make a box lunch."

The door closed again, and only the two of them were left in the room.

The walls of the old-style hotel still smelled of mold, the windows were not closed, and the afterglow of the setting sun mixed with the shouts of vendors on the street added a bit of life to the room.

Qi Yan and Rong Chengyu looked at each other for a long time, and finally, like a soldier who fought tenaciously to the last moment, he finally took off his armor.

The tense muscles relaxed, and Qi Yan stretched out his hand to wipe his face, and his tone was full of exhaustion.

"Sorry, I made you make such a trip."

Seeing him like this, Rong Chengyu's heart ached.He pulled Qi Yan to sit on the bed, "Don't say such things, we are husband and wife, no matter how much I do for you, I should."

couple?The boulder on Qi Yan's heart became a little heavier.

He stared at Rong Chengyu with a complicated expression, "You... really think I'm your wife?"

If it was in the past, Rong Chengyu would say a few sweet words.But in the current situation, the meaning of these words is very deep, he sees his own face in the pupils of the other party, this face is not much better than Qi Yan's.

Spending all day in South Africa, he returned to Mingcheng just after an emergency meeting, and then hurried to Ningshan County, so he only slept for four short hours on the plane today.

But at this moment, he didn't feel tired at all, instead he felt nervous.

"Qi Yan, as I said, I only want to live with you in this life. You are my only companion for Rong Chengyu."

He gently pressed a kiss on the other's cold lips.But in the next second, Qi Yan's words instantly knocked him into the ice cellar.

"What if... I am not the 'Qi Yan' you married at all?"
