Chapter 699: Cousin Remarries (End)
Sheng Huan returned to Duke Fu's mansion.
Fu Jinmo brought her back personally.
"Don't ruin your body."
Before he finally left, he gently stroked the woman's lips with his fingers.
The woman looked at him, her fragile eyes and brows filled with emotions he couldn't understand.
-
Sheng Huan thought that she had returned home and they parted ways.
She thought so for several days.
But no one knows that when she goes to sleep at night, there will always be an embrace beside her.
Several days passed one after another.
One day, Sheng Huan and Fu Shirui were summoned into the palace by the Queen Mother.
"Ying'er, Shi Rui. I have watched you grow up. You are in your prime now. Why do you want to be widows? Have you ever thought about getting married?"
Fu Shirui didn't care and said affectionately: "Empress Dowager, I think it's better to just go with the flow."
"What about you? Ying'er." The Queen Mother looked at Sheng Huan.
Sheng Huan said truthfully: "Empress Dowager, my husband has just passed away, and Ying'er doesn't have any thoughts."
The Queen Mother suddenly held Sheng Huan's hand and said, "Look, how is the Emperor?"
Sheng Huan's pupils suddenly shrank and he was shocked.
Fu Shirui was also startled. She quickly looked at Sheng Huan, and her mind suddenly thought of her eldest brother... She felt strangely that the two of them were a perfect match.
Sheng Huan quickly shook his head: "No..."
"Ying'er. You are a child that I know well, and the emperor is also outstanding. If you stay with him, your aunt and I will be relieved. No one will be able to bully you."
Sheng Huan pursed his lips and lowered his eyes: "Empress Dowager, your cousin... Your Majesty and I are not destined to be together."
"What do you mean there is no fate? As long as you agree, then there is fate," the Queen Mother said anxiously.
Sheng Huan shook his head lightly: "The emperor is very good. But Ying'er respects the emperor and has no improper thoughts."
"How can you not have any ideas? After all, the emperor is a handsome man, alas!" The Empress Dowager was hoping that she would have some ideas.
After Sheng Huan and Fu Shirui left.
The Queen Mother looked at a screen.
"Look at you. You had feelings for Ying'er before, but you didn't know how to seize the opportunity. If you had told mother, even if Ying'er really liked Xiao Ye Ze before, mother would have helped you win her back. Now that Xiao Ye Ze is dead, Ying'er's love for him has deepened."
A black figure slowly walked out from behind the screen.
The man was pressing his finger bones and his body was thin. When he heard this, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the Queen Mother.
Word by word, refute:
"Ying'er will like me."
If she could fall in love with him once, she could fall in love with him countless times.
"Stubborn!" The Queen Mother shook her head: "Forget it. Didn't Xiao Ye Ze send you a letter before he died, entrusting Ying'er to you? Why don't you let Ying'er read the letter..."
Fu Jinmo shook his head without hesitation.
He would never let Xiao Ye Ze touch his relationship with Ying'er again.
-
At night, Sheng Huan couldn't sleep. In a daze, he felt himself being embraced by a familiar embrace.
But compared with the passion of the past, this embrace seemed particularly cold.
She realized something was wrong and wanted to struggle.
"Hui Ying..."
At this moment, a low voice sounded in my ears, with a weakness that had never been heard before.
Sheng Huan was stunned for a moment, and turned sideways. In the dim light, she saw the man's weak face.
He had closed his eyes, his cheeks were abnormally flushed, and the action of hugging her seemed instinctive.
The woman obviously noticed that something was wrong with him. She hesitated for a long time. After an unknown amount of time, her hands finally stretched out tremblingly in the night.
The man felt it, and there was a gleam of light in the corner of his eyes.
At this moment, the soft and delicate touch had already fallen on his forehead.
It is like a soft cloud. When it reaches out, people can smell its fragrance first.
The woman was startled when she felt the burning temperature under her palm.
"Fu——"
She was about to call for help, but then she thought of something and her voice suddenly became hoarse.
She thought about it, without any hope, and called softly: "Changji."
But as soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow appeared.
"Princess."
"He is sick, take him away." Sheng Huan huddled in the corner of the bed, not even looking at the sick person on the bed, with a cold look on his face.
Chang Ji was slightly startled and immediately stepped forward.
Sure enough, Weng discovered the physical condition of his master, and he hurriedly helped Fu Jinmo up.
Sheng Huan didn't look at them, but lowered his head: "Tell him not to come again in the future."
"Princess." Chang Ji's steps suddenly stopped and he turned back: "The emperor only has the princess in his heart."
Sheng Huan didn't look up.
"You allowed me to overstep my authority." Chang Ji's voice rang out in the darkness: "When the news of the princess and Prince Xiao's marriage reached the border, the emperor immediately drove a horse back for seven days. He did not rest during the journey and even broke several horses."
"But..." Chang Ji was hoarse: "It's still too late. When the emperor arrived at the Xiao Mansion, the wedding had already ended and it was already dark..."
"The emperor broke into the bridal chamber and wanted to take the princess away, but..."
"The princess is always in the emperor's heart. All the things sent from the palace are what the emperor wanted to give to the princess a long time ago."
The woman didn't move or make a sound when she heard these words. Her long hair fell down, covering all the expressions on her face.
"Princess, during the days when you were on a hunger strike in the palace, the Emperor also stayed with you and didn't drink a drop of water."
After Chang Ji finished speaking, he helped his master away.
After they left, Sheng Huan couldn't help sobbing while hugging the quilt, and finally... he couldn't help crying out loud.
"But it's too late..."
"Too late……"
Outside, Fu Jinmo heard the crying and curled up his hands.
A bright color jumped at the tip of her heart. Maybe there was still him in Huiying's heart.
The next moment, he pushed Chang Ji aside without caring about his body and strode in.
As soon as I came in, I saw someone with her head buried in the quilt, her body twitching with crying.
The pain in Fu Jinmo's heart became more and more obvious. He walked over and said, "It's not too late."
The woman was startled and raised her head with tearful eyes.
Fu Jinmo slowly stepped forward and wiped away her tears.
"Hui Ying, it's not too late."
"Don't hate me."
"This time, it's my turn to like you."
-
Fu Jinmo's actions became more and more frequent.
He even appears in front of Sheng Huan every day.
Sheng Huan ignored him, but he still didn't get tired of it.
He believes that dripping water can wear away a stone.
This companionship lasted for almost a year.
Until one day, news of war came from the border.
"Hui Ying." He hugged Sheng Huan: "I'm going to the battle."
Sheng Huan finally moved, looked at him, and finally lowered his eyes again.
"I'll be careful," he promised, rubbing Te's head.
-
The war lasted for nearly three months, with life and death fighting on the border.
Later, a great victory was won on the border and the emperor returned.
"Princess, it's bad. His Majesty was seriously injured. I heard that... he is almost dying. Even the general's wife and the eldest princess have... entered the palace."
The woman's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the things in her hands fell to the ground: "Serious injury?"
-
royal palace.
"Empress Dowager, the news has been passed on by the palace servants. If we don't tell the emperor, will it be..."
The Queen Mother shook her head: "It is true that the Emperor was injured. I am not lying."
Upon hearing this, the palace maid hesitated: "But, will Princess Xinyi really enter the palace?"
"That's a soft child, she will."
"Aijia, just need to push forward one step."
"Mother..."
Fu Jinmo hastily patched up his wound and left the hall, wanting to see his beloved, when he heard the Queen Mother's words.
The Queen Mother looked embarrassed.
Fu Jinmo ignored him and walked away.
Under my feet, I unconsciously feel anticipation.
-
royal palace.
Flowers bloomed on both sides, and Sheng Huan and Fu Jinmo met.
When Fu Jinmo saw Sheng Huan, his heart finally settled down. The heartbeat in his chest became faster and faster, beating like a drum.
He came striding over.
The woman stopped where she was, her eyes moving over him for a moment, then she immediately retracted her eyes and bowed.
"Seen..."
Before she could finish her words, she was lifted up by the man's strong arms.
"Hui Ying, are you worried about me?"
The woman bit her lip and said, "I'm going to pay my respects to the Queen Mother."
"Hui Ying."
He knew that she came for him. The man held her hand.
"I miss you."
The woman was startled and all her words stopped abruptly.
The man looked into the woman's eyes with trepidation: "Okay, will you be my wife, my queen?"
