Xu Ziying sat beside him silently, fiddling with the abacus in his hands, but he listened to the two discussing about tomorrow's worship.

He peeked at Rong Rong's tired expression, which was still indifferent.Rong Fei was tired of mentioning the past of the Rong family, and he was always indifferent, and even joked with him. After all these years, he didn't know if he really let it go or hid it too deeply.

Xu Ziying realized in a daze that Rong Feiyan had never mentioned anything to him, and what he knew was still from other people.

"Yingying, Yingying?"

Xu Ziying came back to his senses, Rong Feiyan and Du Yi were both looking at him, Rong Feiyan looked at him with a smile: "What's the matter, are you fascinated by reading accounts?"

Xu Ziying said, "What do you want me to do?"

Rong Fei glanced at Du Yi tiredly, and Du Yi asked him: "Mrs. Xu, do you want to go tomorrow?"

The two are about to get married, so Xu Ziying should go with him: "Rong Fei is tired of asking me to go, of course I will go."

Rong Feiyan nodded slightly: "Then go together."

After saying that, Du Yi backed out.

Before going to bed, Rong Fei took the initiative to mention the past. It was similar to what Xu Ziying had heard before. The Rong family had been generals for several generations. Bore has told an unusual truth.

Rong Fei didn't say anything and asked him instead: "Yingying thinks, is the Demon Lord 30 years ago good or evil?"

Xu Ziying said truthfully: "How do I know, I have never seen him, and I don't know what he did."

Rong Fei was tired of wearing satin underwear, Xu Ziying nestled in his arms, the two of them leaned on the soft and fluffy cushion, their hair tangled.

Xu Ziying's consistent "none of my business" attitude towards things he is not interested in, he has always been like this, Rong Feiyan knew it, so he asked him first: "Then have you ever heard others mention it?"

Xu Ziying recalled: "Yes, it's not a good thing to say that this demon is a demon, but I don't know what bad things he did."

Rong Fei was tired of listening, and smiled shortly: "Yingying is right, after all, this is what all Xuanguo people, including history books, said."

"That's why the Rong family, which was involved with the Demon Lord back then, was also charged with a serious crime of treason." After finishing speaking, his voice sank: "So much so that the family was wiped out."

Xu Ziying turned over and sat up in his arms, Rong Fei continued angrily: "Actually, no one was wrong back then, the fault lies in the fear of people's hearts."

Xu Ziying said slowly: "The devil, what did he do?"

Rong Fei smiled sarcastically: "The Demon Venerable is dissolute by nature, but he didn't do any evil. He knows a magic technique. As long as you make a wish to him, and then pay for something in yourself, no matter what it is, the Demon Venerable will help you achieve it.”

He went on to say: "And this kind of price is various, a prophecy; a certain part of the body; or what you have, as long as the Demon Lord is willing, they can all be used as the price."

Xu Ziying couldn't help sighing: "Is this still a Demon Lord? This is a god, right? Doesn't that mean he can do whatever he wants?"

Rong Fei shook his head with a tired smile: "Yeah, but Mozun thinks it's boring. He just wants to make money. He just wants to have fun watching the various expressions of people who come to beg him."

Xu Ziying said: "That's all? Then why are you dealing with the Demon Lord?"

Rong Fei said angrily: "Dread."

"The Demon Lord is well-known outside the country, and rumors are gradually spreading in Xuanguo, and his followers all say that the Demon Lord will replace the monarch. After all..."

Xu Ziying answered: "I know, do they all say that Demon Lord is better?"

Rong Fei laughed out of disgust, "Is that right?"

"At that time, the demon lord helped some of the people whose families were ruined and their wives were separated, but these people asked for it themselves. It's nothing to do with the demon lord, but the palace used the excuse of eradicating evil spirits to attack the demon lord."

"Because the palace is afraid of the Demon Lord, fearing that the Demon Lord will threaten them one day."

Speaking of this, Rong Fei paused wearily: "They sent out the leader of the year, Jiang Luo."

Speaking of Jiang Luo, Rong Feiyan didn't go into details, and just said a few words lightly. Xu Ziying really wanted to ask him if Mozun and Jiang Luo were really in love, but he never said it.

Speaking of Rong's family affairs, Rong Fei said disgustedly: "The Rong family had no other choice back then. The palace forced father to hand over his rights, but father knew that once handed over, the Rong family would be abandoned, and the Rong family's lives would not be guaranteed. So, yes The Demon Lord helped them."

Xu Ziying was slightly taken aback: "Then, is your father's wish for you to live?"

Rong Fei was weary for a while before he said: "Forget it."

As he spoke, he took Xu Ziying's hand: "You also know that I am still closely watched by the emperor in the palace. If you and I get married and have no heirs, he must be very happy. He tolerated my absurdity and locked me in this huge palace. I will do as he wishes, no matter what, I can't involve you in it."

Xu Ziying asked him: "Then are you willing?"

Rong Fei shook his head in disgust, and placed a light kiss on his fingertips: "No, as long as you are by my side, that's enough."

Hearing this, Xu Ziying was a little touched, and said angrily: "The Demon Lord was wronged, and your Rong family is also innocent."

Rong Feiyan lowered his eyes lightly, with a thin shadow covering his eyes: "Back then, the Rong family was right, and everyone was wrong, but Mozun was indeed wrong, so he lost something very important."

After finishing speaking, Rong Fei pulled him closer to his arms, put his big hands on the back of his head and stroked him gently, Xu Ziying patted the man's generous back comfortingly, and said nothing more.

On the second day Xu Ziying got up early to go out with them, but in fact there was no one else, just him, Rong Feiyan, and Du Yi, the low-key ones couldn't be more low-key.

The carriage wobbled and felt like it had been going for a long time. When they got there, Xu Ziying finally understood why he kept such a low profile.

As the weather got warmer, the ice and snow melted, revealing the bare slopes under the snow, and a few simple tombstones could be seen from a distance.

This is a group of tombs, some of which only have a small tomb. Looking around, it is desolate, gloomy and dilapidated. Even big trees grow around the tombs.

He couldn't hold back and said, "We didn't go wrong, did we?"

Du Yi took down a basket of offerings from the carriage, and said softly: "The palace has already turned a blind eye to allowing us to bury our relatives here, and the Marquis can't do anything about it."

Putting some cakes, vegetables and fruits on the spot, and burning some paper money on the spot, Rong Feiyan first took Xu Ziying to worship in front of General Rong's tomb, and then he didn't rush to leave, saying he wanted to walk around.

"Won't Du Yi go with us?"

Du Yi didn't kneel down until the two of them finished worshiping. From behind, he was kneeling alone in front of the stele, throwing paper money into the small fire one by one, his shoulders swaying from time to time.

Rong Feiyan tugged at him and said, "There are also his relatives who want to pay respects here, let's come back later."

Xu Ziying knew that the two of them were relatives, so it was not surprising that Du Yi's relatives were here. No wonder Du Fang was always depressed, and he didn't take a second look when the tribute was placed.

Rong Feiyan also glanced in Du Yi's direction, hesitantly, and finally said: "Let's go, give him some time alone."

When the two came back, Du Yi had already packed up and sat in the carriage waiting for them, with tears still on his face, he was sobbing, and he hadn't calmed down when he was about to enter the Hou's mansion.

Rong Fei frowned tiredly and scolded him: "Cry, still cry! If you cry again, don't go back next year."

Du held back his tears in an instant.
