Shen Qinghe paused, pursed his lips in the dark, and asked softly, "Have you asked Fu Yan?"
After a long time, I heard a trembling voice from Ah Jiu's end, "I dare not ask, I'm afraid! I'm afraid!"
"What are you afraid of?"
Ah Jiu began to sob, like a child's cry, but she seemed to be greatly wronged, "I'm afraid that he treats me like this...for me, for...for the sake of his own family, for the sake of... Don't let me take their country! I'm still afraid, I'm afraid he will leave me!"
In the darkness, Ah Jiu bit her lip desperately, her body kept shaking, she didn't dare to cry out loud, she only eased a little when she felt Shen Qinghe gently hold her arm.
"But have you left him now?"
Ah Jiu shook her head vigorously, "I'm afraid that he will think that I have always won the honor he should have, so I want to get back my identity and give him back what he deserves."
"Because you didn't dare to ask him, so you always thought that how much grievance you have caused your uncle to suffer like this, how would you know what he was thinking if you didn't ask?"
"I want to ask, I really want to, I want to ask if he has really treated me better? I want to ask why he hides my identity? But I dare not! I can only find my identity myself, and then I can stand Negotiate with him before him."
"Shen Qinghe, will he not want me until he finds out my identity?"
"Don't worry! He won't!" She reached out and patted her arm lightly, until she heard her soft breathing to make sure she was asleep.
But Shen Qinghe couldn't sleep peacefully, and even before going to sleep, all that came to her mind was the Fu Yan she knew.
She remembered that when she and Fu Yan were talking to Prince Dun and Du Ying together, he was confident in his attitude as a king who looked down on the world. At that time, Shen Qinghe never thought that he was the real Dragon Emperor.
She was also suspicious, and even joked in front of Fu Yan with these words, "I really think that the king's air in you is much heavier than that little empress."
At that time, Fu Yan just smiled and said, "If you say this, you will be charged with beheading if you spread it out."
Thinking about it now, Fu Yan at that time should have been accustomed to everyone's doubts, and he was already used to it all.
Of course, she didn't lose her reputation for being extremely accurate. She had seen Fu Yan's thoughts on Ah Jiu long ago.
When Ajiu came to the Hongniang Pavilion to talk to Shen Qinghe about the female official's office, the conversation between the two was interrupted because of An Qianru's appearance. Finally, when An Qianru left, Fu Yan had already waited for almost an hour.
Shen Qinghe knew deeply that An Qian was not easy to provoke, and Fu Yan at this time was even more difficult to deal with.
People like Fu Yan are unfathomable. She had not been able to guess his mind before. She once wanted him to join the Hongniang Pavilion, but he did not agree, not to mention that he came to her for no reason
She put Wen Xiangxiang, who was about to come, at the end, and Fu Yan was the seer.
In this matter of Ah Jiu, Shen Qinghe's guess was accurate.
When Ah Jiu left, he came and waited, Shen Qinghe thought it was for An Qian Tathagata, and smiled when he saw him, "You are really well informed, An Qian is coming, you follow behind. , does An Qianru have to do something to me again?"
Fu Yan poured her a cup of tea in a leisurely manner, and the tone of the mouth was as if everything was on the tray. , An Qianru should not have come over at that time."
Shen Qinghe frowned, thinking of the little empress who had been here not long ago.
She was a little puzzled. The little empress was debunked by her with just a few words. Could it be that Fu Yan came for her
But that's right, Fu Yan is her uncle, so he should come to her.
"You're here for that little empress?" Shen Qinghe laughed, and his heart turned eighteen corners immediately, "You're her uncle, yes, but she came to me to ask for marriage, so your uncle shouldn't be able to control it, right?"
"I am her uncle, and I should be in charge of her marriage." Fu Yan paused, staring at Shen Qinghe, her heart numb, and she continued until Shen Qinghe restrained her smile a little. Said, "I also know that she is not here for marriage, right?"
"You know?" Shen Qinghe snorted a few times, "Then why don't you ask her yourself?"
"Isn't it to persuade you to go to the female official's office?"
Shen Qinghe's eyes widened in surprise, and before she left and waited for her to react to ask Fu Yan, Fu Yan had already said it one step ahead of her, "I am the uncle of the entire imperial capital, and I have already taken over His Majesty's regime, she feels that There is a lack of a female official in the palace, and I still need my consent, how could I not know?"
"You're really taking the power of the Empress! She's just an eighteen-year-old girl, is this really good for her?" Shen Qinghe also rarely fights for a person. Looking back and thinking about it, he feels that something is wrong. If someone like Fu Yan really wanted to use her power, she wouldn't let her out at all.
Only then did Shen Qinghe think clearly, "Aren't you tempted by the little empress? That's why you don't let her participate in the dark court, and you stand in front of her to block all the wind and rain for her?"
Shen Qinghe paused as she spoke, she was stunned by her own thoughts, but Fu Yan's answer stunned her.
"It doesn't really matter if I tell you this earlier. Besides, you'll see it sooner or later because of your intelligence. It's better to say it first than when you see it." Speaking of which, he focused on Shen Qing and Lei's inner tenderness.
Shen Qing and Meng Du were unable to speak, immediately stood up and paced back and forth for a long time before asking, "Can I ask when you started?"
Fu Yan said, "A long, long time ago."
When they were both young, that was the one that Shen Qinghe couldn't understand and had been protecting since he was very young. Until now, even if she became the emperor, he would still stand shoulder to shoulder with her.
"Does the little empress know?"
"It doesn't matter."
She had thought about what kind of person would make Fu Yan move, but now she knows. She also thought that his story should be so vigorous, but she didn't expect it to be so bland, and it was everything so bland that the roots of love could be planted in Fu Yan's heart.
Shen Qinghe didn't tell A Jiu, didn't tell A Jiu about Fu Yan's feelings for her, didn't tell her what Fu Yan did was for her, she couldn't say it, because it was Fu Yan's feelings that he could bury for many years.
Even Fu Yan had said that everything had to wait for her to find out by herself. Fu Yan could wait ten years, but when would it be too late? Or let them cultivate themselves.
When she woke up the next day and set off, Ah Jiu didn't mention what happened last night, not even her cry last night and the swelling that should have appeared in the corner of Ah Jiu's eyes, she still faced Shen Qinghe with a smile on her face, This made Shen Qinghe feel very strange.
After thinking about it carefully, Shen Qinghe also felt that she should always be like this. As an emperor, she should not let others see it. She must be very skilled in such changes, but she didn't know who she cried to when faced with such a helpless night. of? Are you alone? Or to Fu Yan
Since Ah Jiu had such an attitude, Shen Qinghe could only pretend that nothing happened last night, and followed him very calmly.
After two full days of rushing, they finally arrived at Xijun City when the twilight came together.
Yuan Ye told Ah Jiu that when the late emperor entered the city with the refugees, it was this Shang Yun who helped them in the city gate tower.
The late emperor recognized Shang Yun, but he didn't want her to recognize him. Naturally, he didn't want to. When he accepted Shang Yun's relief, he always lowered his head and refused to look at her.
There happened to be an old man Cheng among the attendants. This founding father was very distressed. When he gave his meals to the late emperor, he sighed for a long time, "Our identity, Your Majesty, you don't want the merchants to see, Of course, in order not to let those chasing enemy troops find us, but this is really useless, and we have to be helped. Alas!"
The late emperor looked at it very openly, "But sooner or later, it will be discovered. After all, if a group of refugees come to Xijun City, it will always attract some attention!"
"So to speak..."
Before Cheng Lao finished his sentence, some refugees squatted in front of a few people, and explained their intentions in the eyes of several people, "We are spies sent by the merchants and come to greet Your Majesty."
Cheng Lao leaned closer and smiled, "The way your merchants greet you is really strange, and you are fully prepared when you think about it."
Then the late emperor went to the business with a group of attendants. In this way, it would not attract everyone's attention and save a lot of unnecessary trouble.
After that was the meeting between the late emperor and Shang Yun, and Yuan Ye said very little about the details of the meeting between the two.
Yuan Ye only told Ajiu that Shang Yun had a marriage contract since she was a child. When the late emperor came, Shang Yun was young. At that time, due to her status and situation, the late emperor did not ask Shang Yun's wishes, and only got along with Shang Yun at the merchant. a period of time.
Maybe it's a long-term relationship. It's just that no one can say why.
Later, the late emperor left, and after returning to the imperial capital, he reinvigorated Yang Guotao's horse. At that time, more than a year had passed, but the late emperor did not forget Shang Yun, and immediately came to find Shang Yun as soon as the war stopped. Yun, that's why there was a private interview in WeChat later.
The late emperor had been to Xijun City when he was in Weifu. It is said that when he arrived in Xijun, he went straight to Xijun merchants. Unfortunately, in this year, the Xijun merchants at that time had been replaced by Xijun Liang's family. But not as good as the original business.
Everyone didn't know why the late emperor came. They only knew that when the late emperor left, he took a five-month-old child, and after that, there was the empress A Jiu.
