Cheng Wan raised her hand and touched her bun, and said in a light voice: "The relationship between Chi Qingliu and Chi Wanyue is not very good. Since we have someone ready, how can we have more hands?"

Even if we check by then, we won't be able to find anything on her.

"The young lady has a brilliant move, and this slave is willing to be the loser."

Cheng Wan was a little carried away by her praise, and her head was raised a little higher, like a proud egg-laying hen: "You still have a lot to learn."

"yes."

"Go home."

The carriage gradually moved away, leaving no trace behind.

Inside the Hou Mansion.

As soon as Chi Wanyue returned to her courtyard, she saw Marquis Weiyuan sitting upright, waiting for her to fall into a trap.

Chi Wanyue turned around and wanted to run, but she didn't have time.

"stop."

Chi Rui's words "neither light nor serious" came slowly, making Chi Wanyue stop in her tracks, turned her head and looked over, with a smile on her face: "Dad."

Chi Rui snorted rather arrogantly: "Do you still have me as your father in your eyes? I think you only have Prince Jin in your heart."

That little bastard, who knows what sorcery he used, actually made his little Abao obsessed, even more so than Pei Yan.

Chi Wanyue hurriedly walked over and beat his leg diligently: "What are you talking about, Dad? You are the most important person in the world to me, and no one can compare with you."

Chi Rui glanced at her and suddenly wrinkled his facial features, hating the iron that cannot be made into steel: "I said, Abao, why don't we change to another man?"

"Didn't I change it? Ning Huaizhao, dad."

"Don't interrupt me. It's not like you don't know Ning Huaizhao's identity. You can probably guess the emperor's purpose of calling him back. Do you really think you can achieve good things with him?"

Chi Wanyue raised her head and looked at Chi Rui: "Dad, what if I can get the emperor to grant the marriage in person?"

Chi Rui was stunned: "Why would the Holy Father grant you a marriage? He is only afraid that this in-law will threaten the throne."

Chi Wanyue stopped, stood up, poured a cup of tea for Chi Rui and handed it over: "I know it's not easy, aren't you thinking of a solution now?"

"What are you thinking of? You are hanging out with Ning Huaizhao every day. If the emperor finds out, let alone granting you a marriage, there is no way he will marry you to someone else or marry a relative far away."

"My dear Bao, why don't we change the tree and hang it up?"

Of course, Chi Wanyue also knew what Chi Rui said, but when it came to the Marquis Mansion and the Chi Family Army, the emperor must have some scruples and would not marry her so easily.

This period of time was exactly what she wanted to make good use of and plan. She pestered Ning Huaizhao every day not only to express her feelings, but also to show it to the world.

Even if those aristocratic families covet the power of the Hou Mansion, they still have to consider her reputation and the family's face. Even if the emperor grants her a marriage, they will still have concerns.

Chi Wanyue knelt down, resting her head on Chi Rui's legs and said: "Dad, I know you are worried about me, but I am not joking this time. I think very clearly, except Ning Huaizhao, I don't want anyone else."

.”

"Dad, I also want to be like you and mother, two people who love each other and stay together. If the person I marry is not the one I want to marry, what is the meaning of marriage to me?"

She raised her head and looked into Chi Rui's eyes: "We noble girls from aristocratic families usually have no control over our own marriages, but I just want to be willful. I just want to marry Ning Huaizhao. I know how difficult this road is.

But if you don’t let me try, I won’t be willing to do it.”

Chi Rui was a little moved by what she said, and there seemed to be lights twinkling in his eyes.

He thought Chi Wanyue was acting like Pei Yan again this time, but he didn't expect that she thought so much.

Reaching out and touching Chi Wanyue's head, Chi Rui sighed and finally relaxed: "Abao, have you really thought about it?"

"Yeah, I've thought about it."

Chi Rui took a deep breath and nodded repeatedly: "My daughter has grown up and is no longer the naughty little Abao. My father is very happy."

"If Bao really likes it, then go ahead and do it. Whatever happens, daddy will take care of it for you. The sky will never fall!"

Tears appeared in Chi Wanyue's eyes and she sniffed: "My father still loves me the most. In the past, it was my daughter who was ignorant and made my father angry. I will definitely not do that in the future."

"Dad stopped you before because you were so focused on marrying Pei Yan that you didn't think about anything. In addition, although Pei Yan is kind on the outside, he is not a man who can be trusted on the inside. Dad sees that he is quite scheming and will decide in the future.

I will fail you."

Chi Wanyue nodded: "I couldn't recognize people before, but now I can see his face clearly."

Chi Rui nodded with satisfaction: "That's good."

"Dad, what are the incredible things that happened to Ning Huaizhao that you mentioned last time? I want to know more about them."

It sounded like she was asking this, and in addition to nostalgia and intolerance, there was also a rare hint of panic on Chi Rui's face.

"On the day King Jin was born, it was clearly daytime, but it was pitch black outside. The sky seemed to be covered with a layer of black cloth. Thunder and lightning kept coming from the sky. The rain came down so hard and fast that it almost wiped out the capital of Changjing.

Flooded."

"This is the first time this kind of thing has happened to Changjing. The Chief of Staff reported that there was a disaster star and evil spirits coming. It happened to be that King Jin was born. He didn't cry or make trouble. He was just born, and his blue eyes turned around. He could see.

Everyone present was horrified. The emperor secretly instructed Po Wen to strangle the newborn King Jin to death, but unexpectedly, Po Wen was struck to death by lightning before she could do anything."

"The supervisor said that King Jin's life was tough and that although it would bring disaster, he should not be killed. The emperor had no other choice, so he imprisoned King Jin and Concubine Yang in the cold palace."

"The people in the palace are the most snobbish. No one cares about the life and death of a concubine or prince who has fallen out of favor. In addition, they are afraid of King Jin. The palace people there are very lazy. They don't give them anything to eat, and they only have leftovers.

.”

"With that kind of life, everyone would go crazy. Concubine Yang resented him and thought he had ruined her life. I heard that in the cold palace, the children cried all day and night, and Concubine Yang's voice could be heard going crazy."

Chi Rui paused and looked at Chi Wanyue.

She was already in tears.

Just listening to it, she felt as if her heart was being grasped by a big hand, suffocating her. However, Ning Huaizhaoshang was treated like this when he was a baby.

How much suffering did he suffer when he grew up so big?

"What happened next?"

Chi Wanyue's voice was trembling and hoarse. She couldn't bear to hear it anymore, but she had to listen.

The old marquis sighed, wiped Chi Wanyue's tears, and said slowly: "Abao, even if dad didn't say it, you should be able to think of it. In such a harsh environment, even if King Jin didn't die of starvation or illness,

Concubine Yang must have had murderous intentions, but since he survived, everyone feels more and more that he is a monster."

"The emperor was also terrified. He had nightmares all night long, and he started to murder again. Without exception, all the people who tried to harm him overtly or covertly ended up dead in various inexplicable ways. But he was alive and well.

of."
