The moonlight was like water, and the light words were like silk ruffling Qin Feng’s heart.
He was just timid and afraid of his wife, not a straight man, Ya An had already said his words to this point, how could he not understand the other party’s heart?
The horses in the stables stamped their hooves, and the street outside the old restaurant was filled with pedestrians and clamor.
But at this moment, Qin Feng and Ya An only seemed to be able to hear each other’s breathing and heartbeats.
He quietly looked at the other party, a touch of red blossomed on her jade-like face.
The woman had taken the initiative to become like this, if she didn’t show anything again, it would be a bit too wimpy . Although the holy decree had yet to be issued and Qin Feng had yet to report with the two ladies, at this moment, he could not care less and slowly raised his right hand, slowly approaching the other party.
Ya An’s hands under her big white sleeves were clenched tightly, she was both nervous and expectant, even worried about letting Qin Feng hear her constantly beating heart.
She was already prepared, her body slightly leaning forward.
But just at this time, a familiar voice rang out from the entrance of the old restaurant.
“Brother Qin, why are you here?”
Qin Feng’s body stiffened and hurriedly retracted his right hand before looking for the voice, the person who greeted him was none other than Zhan Qingfeng of the Demon Beheading Division.
At the moment, the other party was carrying a wine jug in his hand, his face had a touch of drunkenness on it, obviously he had just finished drinking not long ago.
Ya An also skimmed his head and looked over, and after recognizing the other party’s face, a dangerous light appeared in his eyes.
This guy she naturally recognized, and was deeply impressed, when she was out on a mission with Qin Feng, this is the guy with no eyesight who repeatedly sabotaged her good deed.
Tonight, at such a critical moment, he unexpectedly appeared at an inopportune time!
With the combination of old and new grudges, Ya An could not wait to kill the other party by a thousand cuts!
Get the hell out of here, Ya An said in her heart, her eyes narrowed slightly, using her eyes to warn the other party to be more sensible.
However, the drunken Zhan Qingfeng clearly lost his judgment of the dangerous situation, where did he care about this, and leaned up with his wine jug.
As he got closer, with the help of the lamps hanging in the stables, he was able to see that there was another person beside Qin.
A long elegant dress such as moonlight white, beautiful face of the country, is that the look is too cold.
At this time, the sky is dark, and is a man and a woman to stay outside the restaurant.
Zhan Qingfeng instantly understood what, a cheap smile pointed at Qin Feng: “Qin brother, you are not honest ah, obviously there are two beautiful women at home like flowers and jade, even dare to come out to steal food.
But why do I feel that the girl looks so familiar?”
Zhan Qingfeng sized up a few glances, it really did seem like déjà vu, but in his memory, there was no woman who could match her.
“This shouldn’t be ah, such a heavenly beauty, why can’t I remember who it is?” He shook his head, only thinking that he had drunk too much and his thoughts had become disorganized.
Molesting the princess of the dynasty, you’re going to the toilet with a lantern, looking for death . Qin Feng hurriedly stepped forward and said, “Brother Qingfeng, you’ve had too much to drink, hurry back and rest.”
Zhan Qingfeng waved his hand, “But only two pounds, where is too much, even if you give me another three pounds of spirits, the same drink!”
Ya An spoke in a cold voice: “If I remember correctly, at this point in time you should be on duty at Feng Tian City’s gates, being AWOL while on duty, and drinking and causing trouble, according to the laws of Da Qian’s Demon Beheading Division, the crime is punishable by death!”
“Heh.” Zhan Qingfeng laughed disdainfully, “The night watch is at the eleventh hour, it’s only a quarter past five, there’s still three quarters of an hour left, with my feet, I can still have at least a quarter of an hour’s spare time to rush to the city gates, where is it considered to be absent without leave?
Wait, who are you and how do you know that I am responsible for guarding the city gate at night?”
Because the one who asked you to guard the city gates at night is none other than this palace. Ya An took a breath and suppressed the anger in her heart, in front of her favorite person, how could she lose her temper too much?
After the stirring up of Zhan Qingfeng, the previous atmosphere had vanished, she could only suppress the feelings in her heart and choose to return home.
“Prepare the horse.” Gently called out.
A figure appeared out of thin air, a lean middle-aged man, precisely Mo Lintian, who had acted as Ya’an’s guard when he managed the Jubilee Jie.
This figure couldn’t help but startle Zhan Qingfeng, making his heart flutter, this is a horseman? What kind of joke is this, is there anyone whose horseman is at the peak of the fifth grade realm?
Mo Lintian nodded his head towards Qin Feng in greeting, then looked towards Zhan Qingfeng with an odd look on his face, he had never seen such a guy who was not afraid of death .
Without bothering too much, just shaking his head, Mo Lintian pulled out the carriage in the stables and waited until Ya An had boarded the carriage before he rolled onto his horse and left.
And Zhan Qingfeng who saw the horse was directly dumbfounded, trembling, “Treading Snow Dragon Colt?”
Working as an officer in Fengtian City and being responsible for guarding the city gates, he had long practiced the skill of recognizing the owner’s identity by looking at the horse.
This kind of divine horse is obviously only owned by people who are rich and powerful!
Coupled with a peak fifth grade martial artist as a groom, it was already self-evident how noble that white-skirted girl’s identity was!
Perhaps because he had experienced too much shock in a short period of time, Zhan Qingfeng had sobered up a bit and finally remembered why he thought that girl looked familiar.
“I remembered! She she and that previous Duke An, between their brows and eyes are simply carved out of the same mold!
Brother Qin, that girl couldn’t be a compatriot of Prince An, right?
Misery, misery, I just spoke out of turn, will she settle the score?” Zhan Qingfeng was so scared that his face turned pale.
“Don’t worry, it’s not a compatriot.” Qin Feng shook his head.
“Seriously? Brother Qin don’t lie to me!” Zhan Qingfeng said excitedly.
“She is Duke An, Duke An is her.”
A woman dressed as a man?
Zhan Qingfeng’s eyes widened as he instantly realized.
He recalled the scene when he was on a mission, so it turned out that Duke An was not having a dragon and yang affair, she was originally a female, and she had her heart set on Brother Qin!
And he still didn’t have the eyesight to sabotage her contact with Brother Qin over and over again!
“No wonder after I returned to Fengtian City, instead of being promoted, I was also reduced in salary and assigned to the most bitter and tiring night watch” Zhan Qingfeng came to a sudden realization.
“No, for the sake of my future career, I have to find a way to remedy this . Brother Qin, which family is she from, I’ll pay a visit some other day to express my apologies, and I just hope she’ll let me off the hook.
It’s just that I don’t know if this meager offering of mine will be able to buy an adequate portion of reparation.”
The words fell, but no response was ever heard.
Zhan Qingfeng looked up, only to see Qin Feng looking at himself with a sympathetic face.
Qin Feng patted Zhan Qingfeng’s shoulder and sighed, “It’s good that you’re all alone and have no ties, in your next life, keep your eyes brighter and your mouth tighter.”
Zhan Qingfeng was so scared that his face was bloodless, and said with a crying voice, “Brother Qin, don’t scare me, who exactly is she she?”
“Princess of the current dynasty – Ya An.”
Snap!
The wine jug fell, splashing the wine all over the floor.
Zhan Qingfeng sat paralyzed on the ground, bewildered, and only after Qin Feng left did he lose his voice and cry.
When people around him asked him, he didn’t answer, but just kept repeating “I’m dead”.
Duty time has passed, tired of crying Zhan Qingfeng did not go to the city gates to change shifts, but got up and bumped to the floating fragrance courtyard, took out all his savings, ordered a flower girl.
That was originally his wife’s savings, but people die like lamps, these money things can not be taken away, not as good as in the death of the last indulgence. It had to be said that the flower girl of the Floating Fragrance Courtyard was indeed not like an ordinary woman, making him forget his grief for a short while.
In the next days of waiting for death, Zhan Qingfeng, however, did not receive the news of beheading, but rather Lord Deng’s summons, with a reprimand, the reason is naturally because he was AWOL, but also went to sleep with the flower girl during his duty.
Fined off his salary is unavoidable, a hundred planks is to beat his skin open flesh.
But these are nothing compared to death.
So the penalty and onlookers of the colleagues, then saw a rather bizarre scene, show Qingfeng while being slapped on the big board, while also weeping with joy.
The words Qin Feng said were naturally just to scare Zhan Qingfeng, after all, the latter had sort of spoiled his good deed.
It was just that he hadn’t expected that a few words would bring about such a result.
Of course, these were all afterthoughts.
Returning to the palace Ya An recalled the words outside the stables, at that time, her heart was racing, she didn’t feel it yet, at this moment, when she recalled it, it only made her blush and her heart beat faster.
“How how did I say something like that.”
However, after being shy, when she thought of Qin Feng’s action of raising his hand, and the deep love in his eyes, this shyness instantly turned into a strong delight.
“Still saying that he treats me as a good friend, he clearly has me in his heart. There is also me in your heart.”
Inside the palace, the fire candle is bright, the night breeze brushes through the curtain, slightly swaying, just like her mood at this moment, some floating.
Ya An was lying on top of the soft bed couch, her two feet swinging gently.
Not far away from the palace maids saw this, one by one, their hearts were shocked.
They have been serving Her Highness Ya An for many years, in their eyes, Her Highness Ya An is well-read and sensible, and the Empress is generally graceful and luxurious, when did she ever show this kind of daughterly gesture tonight?
“Her Highness, what’s wrong?”
“Don’t ask too much, don’t look too much, do your part.”
Just at this moment, the voice of the guards outside the palace rang out, it was the Empress arriving.
Hearing the summons, Ya An hurriedly made her way up from the bed and tidied up her grooming, but in a few moments, she was back to her usual appearance.
The Empress entered the hall, and after sweeping a glance at the palace maids, she waved her hand and said, “All retire.”
“Mother Empress, it’s already late, why did you think to come over at this time?” Ya An curiously said.
“But did you meet something happy?” The decent and dignified Empress spoke softly.
Ya An sniffed, her eyes a bit averted, “It’s just the same as usual, nothing special happened, why does mother say so?”
“This palace sees that your brows are filled with joy, so I can’t help but be a little curious.”
There was . Was it that obvious?
Ya An brushed her head away and pretended to be calm, “It’s probably because my cultivation has improved, so I’m in a better mood.”
“I see.” The Empress didn’t ask any more questions, but recounted the purpose of this visit .
After hearing this, Ya An stood up violently, his complexion changing in shock: “Father is going to give a decree to bestow a marriage?”
“Uh-huh.” The Empress nodded slightly, also somewhat puzzled: “In the past, His Majesty did not care about this, but today he took the initiative to come and find me to explain this matter.”
“Empress Mother, you have agreed?” Ya An said uneasily.
“Since it is His Majesty’s will, it is not good for this palace to say anything more.”
“Mother Empress, you . How can you do this? You clearly know who Ya An’s favorite person is!” Ya An’s voice increased steeply, and even the palace maids and guards outside the palace heard it.
The young palace maid was curious and wanted to probe to see why Her Highness Ya An suddenly lost her temper, but fortunately an older palace maid stopped her in time to avoid making a big mistake.
The Empress frowned and said: ”So out of character, what is the behavior? This palace has not yet said who the object of the marriage is.”
“No matter who it is, I will,” the words came to an abrupt end in mid-sentence.
Ya An seemed to have guessed something, her whole heart was in her throat, she looked at her mother’s mother incredulously, and didn’t dare to directly mention that person’s name, but only asked cautiously, “Who is it?”
“The Qin family, Qin Feng.”
The familiar two words uttered, Ya An’s body stumbled, fortunately the Empress was quick on her feet and assisted her in time.
The Empress just wanted to accuse, but seeing Ya An’s joyful expression, she could only sigh helplessly in the end.
“To be so happy like this.”
On the other side, Qin Feng returned to the Qin Mansion, and after finishing the evening meal, he thought about today’s matter, and only felt that one head was two big.
Beauty grace, and the emperor gave marriage, this matter is already on the board, but ultimately, it is necessary to communicate with the two mothers first, or will only be a gap in the heart, affecting the back of the couple’s life.
“Jian Li has already suffered such a thing once, this matter must not be spoken to her first.
To be on the safe side, it’s best to speak with Feilan first, to reason and move her, and if she succeeds in convincing, she can also let her help me persuade Jian Li together.”
After thinking about it, Qin Feng exhaled a breath and walked towards Feilan’s room.
Outside the door of the room, the familiar scent of medicines pours out, Cang Feilan is standing there quietly, waiting for the soup to boil up, she also does not forget to cultivate, and there she closes her eyes to regulate her vitality.
As for Qin Feng who saw the soup medicine, his body actually produced a stress reaction, his waist was vaguely painful, he understood that tonight he was afraid that it would be another protracted battle.
Cang Feilan hears the commotion and opens her eyes, ”Sire, why are you here? I’ll be late and was about to go look for you.”
As the words reached the back, the tips of his ears couldn’t help but blush slightly.
Qin Feng took a deep breath and fixed his mind before speaking, “It’s like this, mama, I’ve encountered something in the past few days and I don’t know how to deal with it, so I wanted to come over and ask for your opinion.”
“What is it?”
“Well ahem, it’s that I have a friend .”
In a third person perspective, Qin Feng vocally narrated the story of an infatuated man, who clearly wanted to be with his mother and grow old together, but had no choice but to marry another county princess because the emperor had given him a marriage.
In which the man’s journey of heart can be described as bumpy and rugged, tangled!
“There could even be such a thing.” Cang Feilan’s brows knitted.
“Yes, but His Majesty granted the marriage, but my friend had to marry, but he was worried about creating a gap with his mother at home, so he wanted to ask me to inquire about you, if you encountered such a situation, how would you respond?”
Qin Feng carefully observes Feilan’s reaction, only to hear the other party coldly say, “If it were me, I would naturally go and kill that dog emperor.”
Qin Feng: “???”
