Chapter 1183
Many years later, when Mao Mingxuan and Ba Ye were playing chess and drinking tea together, he realized the truth that Ba Ye didn't put all his eggs in one basket.At that moment he couldn't help but be moved.Unexpectedly, Ba Ye had such a deep affection for his sister so early on.

In those few years when Ba Ye was down and out, he had been standing still, but he was not impetuous. Instead, he did things more thoughtfully, so that no one could find any mistakes.His thinking at that time was very simple, he didn't want to rely on Ba Ye to get rich, but he must not let Ba Ye hold him back.

Because he knew that even if a prince who failed to fight for the throne was grounded and seized power, it would not be considered a relief.Once the new emperor ascends the throne, it may be time to settle accounts after autumn.Whenever something goes wrong with him, it may be blamed on Baye in the future.

The quality of Ba Ye's life is directly related to Mao Tongtong's life!Therefore, he did not dare to slack off in the slightest!
So many things seem to be destined somewhere.Even if he failed to make further progress in those years, he was not suppressed, probably because he was so flattered and never slack off.

Then the former prince suddenly died of illness, and the fourth master became the new prince, and he was reused again.

At that time, many people didn't know that the fourth master was able to ascend to the crown prince because of the help of the eighth master.Because Kangxi is still in power, Ba Ye is still the rejected son.

It wasn't until the fourth master ascended the throne and the eighth master returned to the court that people were surprised.

Mao Mingxuan also admired Ba Ye at that time!Under the circumstances at that time, how decisive would Eighth Master be to make a move to support Fourth Master.And the eighth master can gain the trust of the fourth master, and can be reused after ascending the throne, which shows that the relationship between the two before is also different.

After that, he gradually stopped worrying about Mao Tongtong.

After going through the entry of the first Fujin and the entry of the side Fujin, who is not of low status, Mao Tongtong's favored status has not wavered in the slightest.From this, he could see the sincerity of Master Ba, and he also believed that what his sister had said for so many years was the truth.

Years of worries were finally let go, and he was startled to feel a little empty in his heart.

The little girl he had silently tried to take care of for many years finally no longer needed him.

That night, the bright moon hung high, and he sat under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, drinking alone in front of the moon, unable to tell what it was like in his heart.

"Master, it's cold at night, let's go into the house." Fu Rong came out of the house, with a calm smile on her face as usual, her eyes were as bright as before, as if she could see through the moonlight.

He was a little dazed and didn't speak for a while, just watched Fu Rong slowly approaching, sat down opposite him, and poured himself a glass of wine.

"If the master is unhappy, let me have a drink with the master. Drinking alone is more sad."

"Fu Rong, I want to go back to Beijing." He opened his mouth slowly, hearing the fragility in his voice.

On weekdays, he is not a person who shows his emotions.No matter how difficult things are, he is used to burying them in his heart alone.He never expressed his longing for home and his concern for Mao Tongtong.And that night, he suddenly had the urge to talk.

"My master is thinking about Tongtong." Furong smiled softly.

He still remembers how shocked he was at the time.With that simple sentence, he has nothing to hide.

"Master has been concerned about it for so many years. If you don't see it with your own eyes, your heart will never be at ease." Fu Rong said softly.

He was stunned on the spot, as if he understood immediately what the faint uneasiness in his heart was after the emptiness.

It was Fu Rong who had seen through him and knew that he was always restless deep in his heart.

That night was also the first time he re-examined his wife.

Furong was born in a family of military generals, with a bright and cheerful personality, unlike ordinary women who are affectation.So when the family arranged for the two to get married, although he didn't have any feelings of love, he still nodded in agreement.After marriage, the two have been living well, and they have never blushed together.There is his care for Furong, and Furong's tolerance and accommodation for him.

The relationship between him and Fu Rong has already entered into a family relationship before the relationship between a man and a woman has developed. This is his own conclusion on their marriage.He thinks this is also very good, they are harmonious, and they can be regarded as a loving couple.

He has been an official for many years, but has never taken a concubine.Not only because he has never been tempted by others, but also because he is not a lustful man, and he doesn't want to bring back a concubine to make Furong feel bad and break the warm atmosphere of the family.

But he never thought about whether Furong treated him the same way!
In his eyes, a woman with a hearty temperament and no twitching, turns out to have a delicate heart.In fact, she has always understood what he was thinking.It's just that he never said it, and she never mentioned it, but just accompanied him silently.

If she didn't care about him, how could Furong understand him?

For so many years, he was actually the one who failed Fu Rong's heart, and he thought it was good for the two of them to keep this family relationship.

"Fu Rong, for so many years, I..." He suddenly didn't know what to say when the words came to his lips.The throat rolled, but it seemed to be blocked by something. The hot wine just swallowed spread in the chest cavity, making people's eyes hot.

"Master, you don't need to say anything." Fu Rong still smiled shallowly, "It's my good fortune to marry Master. I also miss Tongtong, and wait for Master to take me back to Beijing to see her."

"Okay." After a long while, he only spit out this word.

He looked at Fu Rong, saw the faint smile on her face, saw her eyes as bright as the moon in the sky, and suddenly felt that there was nothing to say.

Later, when Er Niang passed away, he returned to Beijing to worry, and the two brothers and sisters reunited again. He saw with his own eyes how Ba Ye took care of Mao Tongtong, and his heart fell to the ground.

After that, in the decades of ups and downs in the officialdom, although he was no longer obsessed with that share, he had someone he wanted to care for more.

Years later, when he had gray temples, stepped down from his position as minister of military aircraft, and walked in the garden holding Fu Rong's hand, occasionally recalling the past when he was young, he couldn't help laughing.

There are only three women that he cares about most in his life.One was the mother who gave birth to him and raised him, the other was the younger sister whom he watched and cared for since he was born, and the last one was the wife who accompanied him until he was old and gave birth to his children.Three women, three different relationships, occupied a large part of his life.

The Chen family is gone, and Mao Tongtong has someone to take care of her, and Fu Rong is the one who will accompany him to the end.

When he stepped back from the hall and took off the official uniform of a high-ranking official, he was just the husband of the woman beside him and the father of their child.

Now, with gray temples, his favorite thing to do is to walk in the garden holding the hand of Fu Rong, who is also gray at the temples, in the morning sunshine.

Maybe he once missed something, but now he only cherishes it in his heart.
