Still come back to Ermou
Seeing that Nangong Jingnu seemed to be loose, Qi Yan was relieved and also had a worry: Although Yuxiao is a continuation of the bloodline of the Zangli royal family, she knows nothing about her life experience and was born in Wei Kingdom. , She who grew up in the inner court can say that she has no sense of identity with the grassland at all. How can she explain this relationship to her when she has revenge
What if she doesn't agree with her background? And Xiaodie's eldest son, the child who has been missing for more than half a year... Where is he
In order to prevent the relationship between her own sister and the enemy's daughter from becoming irreversible, Qi Yan can only do this. . The main wife of a famous family will never marry a daughter of a concubine, and the daughter of a concubine can only be married and bring a generous dowry.
Qi Yan thought that if she used Wei Kingdom's etiquette to persuade Nangong Jingnu, she would be able to make the other party accept her and send Xiaodie away. But she forgot that at the beginning, she was desperate to keep Xiaodie even at the cost of her life... In Nangong Jingnu's eyes, how affectionate it was.
But in four years, how can it change
Seeing that Nangong Jingnv was silent, Qi Yan thought that the other party was thinking about the feasibility of this matter, Qi Yan tightened the arm around Nangong Jingnv: "Your Highness?"
Nangong Jingnu looked at Qi Yan: the night was like a layer of mist covering her eyes, making her unable to see the other party's expression.
After a long time, Nangong Jing's red lips lightly opened, and she murmured, "Yuanjun... Are you hiding something from me?"
Qi Yan's heart tightened, and she still pretended to be calm and calm, and asked, "What is your Highness talking about?"
Nangong Jingnu moved her body, broke free from Qi Yan's embrace, took a deep breath, and asked, "Will you be willing to send her away?"
Qi Yan opened her mouth, but the words of explanation stuck in her throat, and cold sweat oozes out.
Fortunately, the lack of light in the hall prevented Nangong Jingnu from noticing the looseness that flashed across Qi Yan's face. The matter between Xiaodie and Nangong Shunv caught Qi Yan by surprise, and she had too many things during this time. , actually overlooked one of the most important issues!
Even though he made everything reasonable, he still ignored his relationship with this "concubine".
A wise man is bound to make a mistake, and Qi Yan, who is careful at every step, has also made a fatal mistake!
Qi Yan could clearly hear her heartbeat beating out of rhythm. Nangong Jingnu's silence was more like a wordless questioning. Time passed bit by bit, and the slower the answer, the more flaws. Accidentally answered the wrong answer, and the image that I have worked so hard to manage for seven years will be destroyed in one fell swoop.
The silence continued, and Qi Yan's self-proclaimed brilliant mind was also against her. Qi Yan knew that she had missed the best opportunity to defend herself. As the so-called caring, she wanted to stop this bad relationship too much, but she committed a big crime. wrong.
Nangong Jingnv didn't ask any more questions, she turned around silently, and said lightly, "This matter is for this Gong to think about."
Qi Yan: "Your Highness?"
With a sigh, Nangong Jingnu said quietly: "Are you afraid that one day what you and I have planned will be accomplished, and Xiaodie's identity will become sensitive? If so... Qi Yan, you have misunderstood me."
Qi Yan's heart tightened. Just as she was about to explain, she felt that Nangong Jingnu's suspicion was already the best outcome, it was better than leading Xiaodie...
Nangong Jingnu saw that Qi Yan did not speak, her heart sank to the bottom, and she could no longer think of the matter of "national origin".
Qi Yan, who was behind him, was also unhappy, and he hurt the other person's heart again. Sure enough, he told a lie, and he will cover it with countless lies for the rest of his life... I used to swear that I would let Nangong Jing before the dust settles. Are women happy and carefree
Unexpectedly, she begged for Yan Aguula to be so despicable that she even deceived herself.
Maybe you can't handle it yourself? An avenger who sneaked into the Wei Kingdom with the purpose of revenge, and everything was built on the basis of lies, who is qualified to talk about promises
Everything is just an illusion made to numb his poor conscience.
It took seven years for Qi Yan to finally understand that she and Nangong Jingnu could not coexist peacefully from the very beginning, especially after the other party decided to take the road of the empress, many things that could still be decorated in the past were gradually exposed.
The pain of a heart tearing, this is a pain that cannot be spoken to others, there is no way to justify it, and no one can forgive it.
As early as seven years ago, Qi Yan had already embarked on a one-way road where every step forward, the road behind him would collapse.
Qi Yan took a deep breath, she smelled the incense of soap horn from Nangong Jingnu's hair, the other party turned her back to her, and said nothing.
Qi Yan endured the pain in her heart, silently apologized for thousands of times, and summoned up her courage to raise her hand, but only her fingertips ran through the ends of Nangong Jingnu's hair.
However, the distance of half an arm has become the furthest distance in the world.
Qi Yan sighed and turned around, folded her arms and closed her eyes.
The night was deep, the red lights outside the hall were shining brightly, and there was no dream all night.
…
After another two days, Qi Yan made a special trip to accompany Qi Yuxiao to the racecourse that the little guy had been yearning for. Perhaps it was a call from the depths of his blood, and Qi Yuxiao had a great time.
Qi Yan watched the imperial horse supervisor pick out a few foals, and felt uneasy.
The high priest once said: The ability to communicate with horses is a gift from the gods, and only people with a pure heart can listen to the voice of nature.
Qi Yan was very afraid that after so much, she would lose the ability to communicate with Ma'er.
The result made Qi Yan very pleased. Although it took a lot longer than before, it still established a connection with the horse. Among the horses, there was a little mare with a white hoof and a black hoof. Qi Yuxiao was very fond of it. Qi Yan took Qi Yuxiao's hand and came to the foal. She first patted the horse's neck, then grabbed a handful of beans and spread it on her palm for the horse to eat.
The White-hoofed Wu carefully finished the beans and snorted contentedly. Qi Yuxiao's amber eyes were sparkling, full of yearning and innocence.
Qi Yan was stunned: This scene in front of me overlaps with the past, and Xiaodie was like this back then...
Qi Yan pursed her lips, stretched her hands to Qi Yuxiao's armpits, lifted the little guy, put it on the horse's back, and then personally bridled the white-hoofed black hoof to lead the horse.
Even though Qi Yuxiao was young, he was not at all timid, and laughed like a silver bell from time to time. The "father and daughter" two had a wonderful day. When they came back, Qi Yuxiao fell asleep on Qi Yan's shoulder so tired. Before going to bed, she asked Qi Yan babblingly: When will you take her to ride again
The next day, Qi Yan packed up her luggage and returned to her private house with the money that had just recovered from her serious injury. At this time, she doesn't care whether it will touch Nangong Jingnv's sensitive nerves. The red list has been released for a few days, and neither she nor Nangong Jingnv can miss this opportunity.
In order to avoid embarrassment, Qi Yan specially repaired a letter and explained that Qiu Ju would wait until she was gone before giving it to Nangong Jingnu.
Qiu Ju presented the letter to Nangong Jingnv with an uneasy mood, and the latter took the letter and opened it in front of her.
Qiu Ju was stunned for a while before asking An to withdraw, still a little unbelieving that her master would be so calm.
When there was only one person left in the hall, Nangong Jingnu slammed the letter into a ball, leaning on the back of the chair and her chest heaving violently.
She looked at the file on the bookcase and was fascinated. Her father said: "Everyone who is in high position should be happy and angry. But when it really came to me, I realized how hard it was.
…
The first thing Qi Yan did when she returned to her private house was to order someone to release the news of her return to the house. That afternoon, many Jinzhou students who had been instructed by Qi Yan came to visit with gifts.
The incident that Cui Yushi was hit and killed in the courtroom has spread with Nangongda's intentional relaxation. Qi Yan's reputation among the people and students has plummeted, but Qi Yan, who was also born in Jinzhou, is in the same place as Jinzhou students. It is useless for factions to share weal and woe with each other to avoid suspicion, it is better to show loyalty as soon as possible.
In the main hall, Qi Yan was sitting alone in the main seat, and five Jinzhou students were sitting below. The eyes of the five were full of excitement and respect. They sat upright and listened to Qi Yan's teachings.
Qi Yan took a sip from the teacup and said slowly, "Since the exam has settled, you don't need to be too immersed in the past. All the results depend on the palace exam. In the palace exam, the Chinese overwhelmed the students all over the world and won the top three. Fang has lived up to the hardships of ten years of cold window, but the competition in the top one still needs a bit of luck, if you can rank in the top two and get a jinshi background, you will be able to show your skills in the court after three or five years of experience."
All the people in the hall were humbly taught and said yes.
Qi Yan continued: "However... Judging from the current situation of the imperial court, if you are named to the top three, there will be no suitable vacancies for a while, and you may be sent to a place or stay in the capital to be a 'shi'. Brown', waiting for referrals and vacancies."
The so-called "Shi Brown" refers to candidates who rank low in the Qionglin Banquet. If there are not enough vacancies in the court for a while, they will be granted the status of Shi Brown, who can stay in Beijing and submit their articles to those who have the right to recommend. At the courtier's mansion, waiting for Bole.
However, because the imperial examinations are held every three years, the status of Shi Brown can only be maintained for three years. For all the students who entered the palace exam, it is the worst ending...
Two of the five candidates were of average literary talent, and their appearances were not out of place. After hearing Qi Yan's words, my heart beat a beat, and said, "Fortunately, we come from Mr.'s family. One or two."
Qi Yan glanced at the two of them, her face froze, and she said coldly: "The two of you have such thoughts before the palace exam has begun. It's better to go home as soon as possible."
