Chiyun Yuexuan burst out laughing. “Peepee… Hahahaha that’s adorable hahaha…” He carried her off the carriage and placed her into a bush on the roadside, then returned to the road and stood with his back to her.
Murong Zhining yelled with discontent, “What can I do with my hands tied?!”
Chiyun Yuexuan walked back. Untying the rope, he warned, “If you dare to run, I’ll kill your foster mother’s family.”
Murong Zhining said innocently, “So I have a foster mother, that’s great. If you didn’t tell me, I wouldn’t know.”
Chiyun Yuexuan suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness. All of the advantages he had to threaten her with had become useless.
While Chiyun Yuexuan walked away with his back facing her, Murong Zhining bent down and untied the rope binding her feet. Around Chiyun Yuexuan, she always felt uneasy and her head was full of the thought to escape. Although she didn’t know where she could run off to, escaping him was her most instinctive idea.
Ch
A full-stomatched Murong Zhining seemed particularly quiet. She sat inside the carriage, silently combing her long hair. The scattered sunlight pierced through the window and danced upon her, painting the girl so pure that it hastened Chiyun Yuexuan’s heartbeat.Chiyun Yuexuan quietly looked at her. Suddenly she felt so strange in one moment, then familiar in the next. Chiyun Yuexuan once again fell into the endless cycle of questions he set for himself, which drove him to the verge of insanity.All of a sudden, as if recalling something, he rushed into the carriage and pulled Murong Zhining over. The latter exclaimed in shock and instinctively struggled to move back, but Chiyun Yuexuan held her head in the crook of his arm. He pushed aside her long hair. In the back of her ear, a small mole was there, providing him with the most accurate answer.Chiyun Yuexuan’s voice was as gentle as water, “Little Tabby, don’t struggle. I’m not gonna hurt you.”Murong Zhin
Meng Xia hissed in pain and got up. “Peh! I thought you didn’t beat women?”Chiyun Yuexuan snorted, “I don’t see it. Where do you look like a woman?”Meng Xia flew into a rage out of embarrassment. “You dare say I’m not?! Then I’ll just make your little lady into my woman.”Chiyun Yuexuan suddenly remembered that he couldn’t act out of whim just for a moment of satisfaction when Murong Zhining’s life was still in the hands of others’.Thinking of Murong Zhining, his heart ached with every beat. After his sanity had returned, however, he could understand her fear and the reason why she couldn’t help but run away from him.“I have been offending. I’m asking you, Miss Meng, please return my wife to me. I’ll be very thankful.”Meng Xia arrogantly snorted. “If that young miss is your wife, why was she so afraid of you? And even ran away from you?”Chiyun Yuexuan painfully frowned. “She was fed a poison of Wuli and lost her memory. Please do not m
As Chiyun Yuexuan gently stroked Murong Zhining’s hair, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sadness. “One day, if Ning’er remembers what I had done to you, you sure wouldn’t forgive me."Murong Zhining innocently kicked the water with her foot. "Then confess your crimes now and strive for leniency."Chiyun Yuexuan was full of guilt. “I was worse than an animal. I don’t dare to face the sins I have committed."Murong Zhining looked at him. "There’s no sin that cannot be forgiven. Ning’er hereby forgives General, so you’re not allowed to say such things about yourself. You are someone who insisted to drink poisoned wine for Ning’er. Ning’er does not believe that you will do anything to hurt me."The two sat quietly on the stone by the river. Murong Zhining softly rested her head on Chiyun Yuexuan’s shoulder. All of a sudden, Flash let out a long neigh. Murong Zhining grasped Chiyun Yuexuan’s clothes. "What’s happening now?"Chiyun Yuexuan he glanced up at th
Chiyun Yuexuan lowered his voice and warned Cai Sang, "Don't forget, she is my wife. When you two are away, it was me who helped her bathe. Step aside."Luo Siyao tacitly dragged Cai Sang out of the room and took her to Wu Siyuan's room next door.Seeing Cai Sang sit at the table with a displeased face, Wu Siyuan shook his head with a wry smile. "Cai Sang, you should do something about that stubborn temper. Heaven made the princess lose her memory for a reason. Don't you want her to live happily? Only you would dare to talk to General Chiyun like this, and he doesn’t make a fuss about it because of Princess. But don't be too willful. If anything, he’s still a general who commands hordes of troops, you can't make him look bad in front of others.”Luo Siyao asked Wu Siyuan, "Will General be punished for taking away Princess when we return to Huayan?"Wu Siyuan frowned. "I'm worried about this too. General has really thrown all caution to the wind this time. For
Murong Zhining turned back at once and flashed Chiyun Yuexuan a mischievous look. "Let General Chiyun marry Princess Jingrong himself.”Chiyun Yuexuan tightened his arms around her waist and warned, "Naughty girl, not afraid of being punished again? Your husband only needs you! In the three thousand rivers, I take only a ladle of Ning’er water.”Murong Zhining leaned on his chest. “But... I…"Chiyun Yuexuan blew into her ear. "No buts. Don’t even dream of leaving me without my consent."Murong Zhining hit him in the chest with the back of her head. “I mean General Wu doesn't want to be a princess’ husband, so I only helped him come up with an idea."Chiyun Yuexuan bent over and nibbled on her ear. "You dare? You are pushing your husband into the fire pit! Be a good girl and don't add to the fuss. It’s his fortune to marry the princess.”Wu Siyuan sighed with feeling. "If I don’t enter the fire pit, who will…"As the group chatted and laughed
Luo Siyao set a bowl of porridge and several light dishes on the table. Murong Zhining stood at the door watching with indifference. “Thank you. I will eat the porridge on my own. Please go back, General.”Chiyun Yuexuan sat down at the table. “Siyao, I haven’t eaten either and am starving. Bring over another bowl of porridge so I can accompany Princess as she eats.”Murong Zhining replied with a ruthless tone, “No need. I'm not hungry. Please eat it bit by bit, General.” She walked to the bed and sat down.Unaffected by her frosty manner, Chiyun Yuexuan brought the porridge over to the bed, scooped up a spoonful and blew on it. He leaned over and held the spoon to her mouth. “Have two bites at least, then your husband will finish the rest for you.”Murong Zhining looked at him with her eyes filled with unfamiliarity and resentment. “I guess you must have been quite a ruthless person before. What led to the changing of your nature?"Chiyun Yuexuan’s fac
Wu Siyuan was out of breath. “Reporting to General Chiyun, I went to go negotiate compensation with that family like you ordered yesterday, but they refused to settle in peace. Not only did they tie up Du Youtian and take him to the local government, they even beat him and raised the compensation amount to 100,000 silver taels.”Upon hearing the news, a dangerous glint flashed in Chiyun Yuexuan’s phoenix eyes. “So they are forcing me to come out to handle this myself? Very well. Help me change clothes. I'll see what kind of family they really are.”Dressed in a white brocade robe with cloud patterns, Chiyun Yuexuan looked quite scholarly and elegant and not at all like a general who was used to holding heavy weaponry. He told his men to protect Murong Zhining well before riding his horse away with Wu Siyuan.With a worried face, Luo Siyao helped Murong Zhining wash up and dress. “Oh dear… I’m worried that with his violent temper, General Chiyun might just tear down
In the eastern suburbs of Songyang County, at the start of Hog hour. A servant of the Bai family pushed forward Cai Sang, whose hands were tied up, along the road, before stopping at a certain spot on the roadside. The hillside around hid fifty archers dressed in armor, ready to shoot the exchanger to death after the exchange was complete. The servant who hauled Cai Sang along waited and waited until it was the mid-Hog hour but there was no sign of anyone. He started to grow a little impatient.Bai Xianwu paced back and forth in the Bai Estate’s study. It had already past the beginning of Rat (11pm – 1am), and no one had brought Bai Hongkai back. Bai Xianwu was burning up with anxiety. Mid-Rat hour, a servant delivered a bloodstained letter. Bai Xianwu unfolded the paper with trembling hands and read it.‘Since Old Mister Bai has failed to act in good faith and set up an ambush, you cannot blame me for being cruel. The blood on this paper came from your son, but rest ass
Yan Feng picked up Murong Zhining, who had fainted, and placed her behind the screen in the innermost part of the imperial study, where there was a soft couch for his temporary rest. Yan Feng's gaze on Murong Zhining's face was a mixture of jealousy and heartbreak.Qi Shangming was called into the imperial study, and when he saw Murong Zhining on the couch, he said in horror, "Your Majesty ... are you roughing up Princess Feng Yi? How did she ..."Yan Feng said angrily, "Are you blind? The clothes on her body sharp, I am this kind of beast in your imagination? Outrageous, you say scolding cloud Yuexuan gave her eat what ecstasy ... forget forget forget, I with a dead person to bother what?"Qi Shangming lowered his voice, "Your Majesty is telling Princess Feng Yi about General Chiyun's death? Alas Your Majesty ...""Shut up! I can't lie to her for the rest of her life! Go ask Imperial Doctor Gao to come, the princess is weak, take this opportunity to mend her
Murong Zhining pity, "This deep palace women, body can not help, really poor! Cui Beauty is just a little crazy in words, and not guilty of this!"Cai Sang pouted and looked at Murong Zhining with disgusted eyes, "You're the only one who's kind, you're the only one with a good heart, everyone else is evil! No wonder the General called you Little Lady Dong Guo, you can't be cruel to a wolf that almost took your life, let alone a human being!"Shouting Yun Ping looked at Murong Zhining, the corners of her mouth presenting a light smile of unknown meaning.Saying goodbye from Ming Hui Palace, Cai Sang raised her hand to beckon the warm sedan chair, and Murong Zhining stopped her, "Locked up in the house all day long, I want to take a walk, get some air on one side, and look at the scenery in the meantime!"Cai Sang will rebuke Yun Ping returned a box of snacks, handed to the accompanying small eunuchs hands, straightened the Murong Zhining body fox fur, help her
Su Li stuffed a handkerchief into Shouting Yun Ping's hand, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it forward, "The slave girl thinks that Princess Feng Yi's visit to the capital this time around may not be for the purpose of hooking up with the Emperor. Could she really just be bent on visiting Tai Fei Hui?"Shouting Yun Ping gritted her teeth and said, "The fact that she accepted His Majesty's tenderness so heartily doesn't say everything?"While the two were talking, Chengfu shouted from the courtyard, "Your Highness, Princess Feng Yi seeks an audience."Su Jie softly said, "Your Highness, it's true that when you speak of the devil, the devil arrives. If the empress is upset, the slave girl will go and return to her."Shouting Yun Ping sat up and straightened her hair, "Let her in."Murong Zhining and scolded Yun Ping met the salute, smilingly handed over a round-shaped gold lacquered wooden food box, "Feng Yi today went to visit aunt mother, for her to
The little palace maid pulled open the palace door of Qingren Palace and welcomed Murong Zhining into the courtyard, "So the princess is looking for her ah? She was chastised by the emperor and has been paralyzed in bed, afraid ... of being crippled even after her injuries are healed. She originally even here can not live, to move to a more dilapidated compound, only because of the heavy injury, the eunuch in charge let her get well, then move away."Cai Sang sucked in a mouthful of cold air, "After receiving a mere ten strokes of the board, where would she be crippled? Lead the way, we, Princess Feng Yi, are going to visit her."The little courtesan respectfully led the way in front, "Princess does not know, this court cane, is a move that can kill a person, if you are unlucky, a few strokes down on the life are gone. Princess inside please!"Cai Sang pulled Murong Zhining stopped in the courtyard, from a compartment with a broken hole in the window, came out Cui
Yan Feng hurriedly stepped forward and personally picked up Butcher Du and Yin, motioning them to the seats. He roared out violently, "The singing stops first!" The gongs and drums on the stage came to a grinding halt, and there was silence all around.Cui Mengrui did not bother to put on her shoes, jumped up from the chair, bent her knees and saluted, "Your Majesty ... my concubine was just watching the theater here for a while, and it was the two of them ... themselves who came together to want to serve my concubine. "Yan Feng helped Murong Zhining to sit down on a chair, went up and kicked Cui Meng Rui's calf, and Cui Meng Rui's knees buckled and she fell to the ground.Murong Zhining anxiously held Yin's hand, "Mother don't panic, speak slowly. What's going on? How did you guys provoke Beauty Cui?"Yin mumbled, "I don't blame the Empress Mother, it's me who doesn't know the rules and didn't give her a seat. Your Majesty, please don't be angry, we are jus
Yan Feng looked back at the rising Kong Ming Lantern, nodding his head and smiling slightly, "Last year, I picked up a broken Kong Ming Lantern in Wan An Palace. I have not been willing to throw it away. On that lantern, wrote let me blocking words, but I will still take out from time to time to enjoy playing, even more and more fascinated by the lantern. I also heard that the condensed child rely on a few lamps, opened the Yongning city gates. So, I like the lanterns more and more!"Murong Zhining looked up at Yan Feng with a surprised expression, "What kind of Kong Ming Lantern is it that makes the Emperor unable to throw it away? Oh ... Feng Yi knows." She reached out and covered her mouth.Cui Mengrui summoned up her courage, pulled Qingxin forward, and performed a big salute, "My concubine sees Your Majesty!"Yan Feng furrowed his sword brows and said indifferently, ''Be free! Which palace are you the master of? I've seen you look somewhat familiar!"Mur
Murong Zhining jiaojiao stroked the tips of her hair, "Your Majesty is not making it difficult for Feng Yi? Feng Yi is not well educated and her eyesight is clumsy. It's better for the Emperor to tell us the origin of this phoenix robe!"Yan Feng laughed, "If Ning'er didn't know where this phoenix robe came from, she must have been looking at me with anticipation, wanting to eagerly reveal the answer. But on Ning'er's face, there is clearly full of confidence." The way he looked at Murong Zhining's eyes was undisguisedly full of appreciation.Cai Sang spoke up more, "The princess just said that this phoenix robe, was worn by the Empress of Northern Yan during the grand ceremony."Wen Quan took his sleeve and wiped his saliva, "This dress ... princess wear, only beautiful ..."Yan Feng laughed out bashfully, "Who says Wen Quan is a fool? I'm the first to stand up against it, and he's clearly extremely discerning."Murong Zhining personally brewed a cup o
Murong Zhining poked Cai Sang in the head, "Little money grubber! If I'm not wrong, one box is rewarded to me, inside is nothing but some antiques and paintings. The other box, is the reward for my parents and adults, is a box of gold and silver treasures."Yin rubbed her hands uneasily, "Never, never, your adoptive father and I, what virtues can we have? We've only adopted you for less than a year, and accepting another reward from the Emperor and General would be a blessing. As you know, Ning'er, we're all country folk, and our fortune is thin!"Murong Zhining's eyes flooded with tears, "Who said you guys are country people? You are my adoptive parents, and after my breast-mother died, you gave me a home to shelter me from the wind and rain. Your care once warmed Ning'er's lonely heart. Lord Mother, you deserve it, so take it with a clear conscience!"Yin firmly said, "The houses and fields rewarded by the general are enough for our family to be well fed and clot
Yan Feng was so touched that he couldn't help but have his eyes redden, "Mrs. Du is truly a kind-hearted person, and Wenquan is considered to have a good home. In the future, I will allocate a sum of silver to the Du family every year for Wenquan's upbringing." Murong Zhining and Cai Sang took hands and smiled at each other with relief.The eunuchs from the Imperial Catering Room, delivered the New Year's Eve dinner, and Yan Feng said, "Ning'er, you accompany your family to eat the New Year's Eve dinner for me. I'm going to follow the usual practice and go to Jing Ci Palace to have dinner with the Supreme Emperor! I will return later to join you for the vigil!"Qi Shangming draped a black sable fur over Yan Feng and helped him out of Qi Xiang Palace's courtyard.Du Tu Fu sighed, "This palace is really grand, the Emperor really talks about ostentation! This New Year's Eve dinner, boy, more than thirty dishes, how can we finish it?"Cai Sang laughed, ''What is
