Chapter 54 See you next time
byAccording to the elder brother's own words, Yao Xuanci assisted the little emperor to become the regent, and she heard him say the word "abandoned emperor".
What happened to the deposed emperor and the little emperor?
Wen Qiong asked this question as soon as she opened her eyes, and Yao Xuanci felt a sense of caution in her heart. Aqiong asked what was the end of Donggong, and the word "end" meant a bad ending.
She never advances the affairs of the world on weekdays, why would she suddenly care about these matters.
Yao Xuanci in this life was keenly aware of his hesitation, and said coldly, "If you are afraid that you won't act like me, why bother to speculate, if you give up your position earlier, you won't show your flaws."
He's been trapped in his body for too long, he can't control the dominance at all, and his patience is exhausted.
Yao Xuanci ignored his words, but couldn't help thinking along the line of "I want to speculate a lot".
When Arjun mentioned Donggong, he had grievances from his previous life, so perhaps he blurted out these two words subconsciously.
Interrupted by the appearance of Yao Xuanci in this life, he was silent for a long time. Wen Qiong half propped up her body, and there was a hint of doubt in her beautiful eyes, "What are you thinking?"
"I'm thinking about the things in my dreams." Yao Xuanci stood up calmly, took the soft pillow from the bed and let her lean on it behind her.
"I don't dream much. I haven't had those dreams for a long time, and I never want to take the initiative to recall them. The memories of my previous life have been sealed in my mind for too long."
He naturally calmly explained, "The Eastern Palace failed to secure the throne and was abolished within a few years."
As he said that, he paused again, "I also dreamed that your elder brother and mother returned to the imperial city. Your elder brother has done a good job as the head of the Wen family."
She cares most about her mother and elder brother.
"Why did Arjun suddenly ask this?"
"Suddenly I had a dream, and vaguely saw a lot of behind-the-scenes events." Wen Qiong simply said, "What about my mother?"
She really wanted to know what was going on with her mother's hysteria, and seeing how familiar her brother was with Yao Xuanci, Wen Qiong felt somewhat curious.
The future sister-in-law, two nephews, and too many things, what happened after her death.
And the only one who could answer her was Yao Xuanci who had a prophetic dream.
And Yao Xuanci hesitated for a moment, "Your mother... is in good health. Wen Boqing got married in Suzhou and had a pair of twin daughters."
"In good health?" Wen Qiong frowned as she recalled her mother's haggard and old appearance when she walked by.
Yao Xuanci was lying to her.
The corners of Yao Xuanci's lips were pursed, and his jaw line was tensed.
The mother-in-law often fantasized that Arjun was by her side. heard that she was very calm and gentle at that time, talking and laughing in the air, but after drinking the medicine and waking up, the imagined Arjun disappeared and cried out of control.
Yao Xuanci happened to meet him once, and his mother-in-law looked at him with red eyes from crying, full of hatred, wishing to kill him, "You keep saying that you have avenged Qiong'er, then why are you still alive in this world!"
Reminiscing so far, his eyelashes trembled slightly and lowered his eyes, covering the scarlet under his eyes, slowly tightening his delicate white hand while holding his palm, his voice was a little hoarse, "Arjun, we are fine now."
"Don't bring up the past again."
Wen Qiong nodded, and then realized that what he said was wrong.
Yao Xuanci lowered his eyes and didn't see the doubt that flashed across the woman's face.
To him, this was just a dream, so how could it be a thing of the past?
Wen Qiong pursed her lips, and then pulled out her hand with some strength, "Let's eat."
She had to find a way to prove it.
The next day, as soon as Wen Qiong opened her eyes, she heard the sound of footsteps coming and going outside, and it was only after she called A Yao that she realized that she was packing her bags and moving things.
Yao Xuanci said he wanted to move out, so he left immediately.
After asking Bai Ya, Wen Qiong learned that Yao Xuanci drove back to the imperial city early in the morning, so she wanted to go and see how things were going.
She changed into an elegant and gentle clear satin cloud embroidered skirt, and put on a snow-blue pearl cloak. When she came to the gate of the Biezhuang without haste, she was shocked when she saw three crowded carriages, "A Yao.”
"We didn't only have two carriages when we came, how come there are so many extra things?"
The servants were still stuffing boxes into the carriages behind.
A Yao leaned on Wen Qiong's side, and couldn't help laughing, "Could it be that the girl forgot that we've lived in Biezhuang for so long, and we've bought a lot of things inside and out. Nanny Song didn't even have the door to the small kitchen.The saucepan, which works so well, was taken away together."
Wen Qiong had no choice but to hold back her surprise, "All right."
She stood by and watched for a while, then felt a little sore in her legs, turned around and was about to go back to the villa, when she heard a soft voice, "Wen's, stop!"
Looking back, Zheng Ruyu, who was dressed in a fiery red dress, came aggressively from not far away with her maidservant.
When Zheng Ruyu saw Wen Qiong's chubby belly inadvertently revealed when she turned around, the anger in her eyes lit up immediately, and she quickened her pace immediately. Unexpectedly, before she got close, the white crow appeared in front of her.
"Please ask the second girl to come back another day, don't scare my wife."
"Get out!" Zheng Ruyu was extremely displeased, lifted her skirt and kicked at the white crow, "A little servant dares to stand in my way."
The white crow dodged lightly, seeing Zheng Ruyu was still walking forward, he raised his arm to stop her, but at this moment he heard the calm voice of the woman behind him, "Bai Crow, just get out of the way."
Hearing this, Bai Ya took two steps back, stood in front of Wen Qiong, staring at Zheng Ruyu vigilantly.
Zheng Ruyu was so annoyed by his defensive appearance, and knew that he couldn't do anything about Bai Ya, so she held back her anger and stared at the extremely gentle woman in front of her, and deliberately raised her voice, "You are afraid that I will expose you.That shady deal made Yao Xuanci rush to move away?"
The white crow silently straightened its spine, and secretly pricked up its ears.
"Miss Zheng Er is talking about those gold bars and silver coins? This is indeed because I broke my promise and did not disappear in front of Miss Zheng Er."
There was a cold wind blowing, Wen Qiong tightened her cloak to block the wind, said calmly, "But I don't plan to return the silver taels to Second Miss Zheng."
"The opportunity is presented to me. If the second girl Zheng doesn't grasp it well, there is nothing I can do. I have already handed over the person, and the promise is only half completed. If the second girl has some patience, then wait."
Wait until the day when she can take He Lishu to the government to stamp it.
The white crow stood by, and Zheng Ruyu could only clenched his teeth, "You think you can still be arrogant for a few more days."
The queen has already said that when the rumors dissipate, His Majesty will grant her a marriage and let her marry into the Hou's residence.
Even if Yao Xuanci didn't like her, so what, she just wanted to set off a bloodbath in his back house, seeing him angry and hated, but pretending that she had nothing to do.
Wen Qiong could hear the threat in her tone, and her beautiful shallow pupils narrowed slightly, "What is the reason for the second girl to hide here quietly, to avoid His Highness the Crown Prince's marriage proposal?"
"Wen's!" Zheng Ruyu was severely trampled on, especially when she saw the sarcasm in Wen Qiong's eyes, she was instantly ignited by anger.
How dare she laugh at her!
Zheng Ruyu's face was distorted, and he stretched out his hand and rushed towards Wen Qiong, "What are you!"
A Yao hurriedly blocked, "Girl!"
"Madam be careful!"
The white crow quickly stopped Zheng Ruyu's arms that were about to grab Wen Qiong's skirt, and said coldly, "Second girl, if you continue like this, your subordinates will not be polite."
"Damn slave, let me go!"
Wen Qiong patted A Yao who was nervously standing in front of her, "A Yao, give way."
She took a step forward, and under Zheng Ruyu's angry gaze across a white crow, her brows and eyes slightly curved.
"Second girl, I was very afraid of you at first, thinking that I could afford to hide if I couldn't offend you, but now I feel that you are nothing more than that."
"I still say the same thing. There are many men. I don't have to stick to him in my life. If you can take him away, I will give it up."
Her voice was warm and soft, sounding like it had no sense of power, it was light and fluffy, as if it could be blown away by a gust of wind.
"It's too stupid to die for a man."
White Crow stopped him stiffly, wishing he hadn't heard these words.
And Zheng Ruyu said viciously, "Then you should go, what are you doing when you come back!"
The corners of Wen Qiong's lips curled up, "Miss Chenger said auspiciously, I will."
She turned around, and the snow-blue thin cloak raised a small arc with the wind, and after walking a few steps, her footsteps stopped suddenly.
Wen Qiong calmly turned her face away, and said in a low voice, "Bai Ya, let go of the second girl."
Hearing this, the white crow quickly let go and backed away for a few steps, just as he was about to follow his wife, but before he reached the front of the villa, he saw a tall and slender crow-blue figure.
He cupped his hands, "...Young Master."
Zheng Ruyu straightened her slightly messy clothes, "You heard me, your wife's love for you is even worse than mine."
"I said that she took the gold and silver from me and ran away for a Jinshi surnamed Xu. You also chased her back..."
The man's phoenix eyes were full of gloom, "Shut up."
It's not her turn to intervene in the matter between him and Arjun.
The violence in Yao Xuanci's eyes could not be suppressed, and he paused every word, "Stay away from her."
It's too slow, the evidence in his hands is not strong enough, the emperor is obviously still wavering these days, and he doesn't know how long it will take to bring down the East Palace with the evidence handed over to the emperor.
He needs a suitable candidate.
Moreover, there was one more crucial thing—the plan that had been vaguely formed before resurfaced in his mind.
"White Crow, take good care of Madam."
Yao Xuanci turned around, quickened his pace and walked towards Mo Ya, who was leading the horse in the distance, and turned on the horse neatly.
"Go back to the imperial city first."
He had to find someone to carefully discuss and arrange all this.
This was Wen Qiong's last night in Fenglin Biezhuang. Tomorrow she was going to move to a house in the south of Wen Mansion. After her mother and elder brother found out, they went there ahead of time to help arrange the yard.
But the Hou Mansion didn't know that she was going to move out, and sent someone to deliver a letter today. It was the old matriarch who urged her to go back to help organize the birthday banquet, but Wen Qiong ignored it and passed the matter on to Yao Xuanci.
She was leaning against the bed, quietly flipping through the book in her hand by the light in the room, when she suddenly heard someone knock on the door lightly, "Ah Qiong."
It was Yao Xuanci.
Before going to sleep, he would come to the main room to rub her legs and feet, talk back and read a book.
Wen Qiong responded, and casually flipped through a page of the book, until the shadow fell on the bed and enveloped her, she realized that something was wrong.
Looking up, the man was standing in front of the bed holding a quilt, Wen Qiong frowned, "What are you doing?"
"Ayao said that last night you woke up with leg cramps and pain, and I will watch over you."
Immediately, he put the quilt on the couch beside him, took out the spare quilt from the clothes compartment and spread it on the floor. Seeing this, Wen Qiong straightened up, "It's so cold at night, are you serious?"
When he came back from the Jiuchongshan Taoist Temple the day before yesterday, he became silent when he heard her and Zheng Ruyu's words.
First, he went to the imperial city and returned late at night. Yesterday he went to some Buddhist temple to see the master, and today he went to Jiuchongshan Taoist Temple and waited until dusk to return. Wen Qiong always felt that he was holding back another big move.
"Aqiong feels cold only when his body is cold. In a few days, it will be just enough to burn the earth dragon." Yao Xuanci neatly tidied up the floor, and took out a long wooden box from under the quilt as if by magic..
"What is this?" Wen Qiong resisted the urge to drive him out, and leaned over curiously, "Xiangzhu?"
"It's the scent of clear clouds that soothe the nerves and help sleep."
It is also the sleeping incense given to his mother-in-law in his previous life.
Yao Xuanci explained in a low voice, after igniting it, he carefully placed it on the incense plate, and the fairy mist floated up, followed by a faint fragrance.
"I haven't been able to sleep well these days, and pregnant women can smell this fragrance, lest you have those weird dreams at night."
Uneasy, Wen Qiong has no obvious experience, sleep aid is really sleep aid.
It didn't take a moment for sleepiness to strike violently, her heavy eyelids closed instantly, and the book she held in her hand lost strength and fell.
A pair of big bony hands gently picked up the book, and the deep phoenix eyes stared at her eyebrows, and whispered, "Ah Qiong?"
Yao Xuanci didn't get a response, so he lightly adjusted her to her sleeping position, and carefully sat on the side of the bed.
He gently brushed her brows and eyes, leaned over and placed a light kiss on her forehead, "When we meet next time, I hope it will be me."
