Chapter 273
Yuanying turned pale in surprise, and couldn't help but sadly said: "Father and mother are gone, apart from Gufan and Bikong, I have no other living relatives, what's the point of returning to the old Taifu's mansion, it's better to follow It's good to be by your side."

Seeing this, Feng Xihe said again: "In the past, you had no choice but to hide your name and become a secret guard, but now Taifu Situ has been rehabilitated along with the prince. His Majesty is sympathetic to the orphans of the Situ family, and bestowed on the three of you a thousand acres of fertile land and ten thousand taels of gold. , but also to save his own face."

"The king's heart is unpredictable. If you don't want to go back, you will refute his face and plant disasters for the future, so that Taifu Situ will have no good intentions under the nine springs."

Yuanying was silent for a moment when she heard it, and then she sighed helplessly, "So, I can't choose at all, the future has already been decided, right?"

Feng Xihe was also silent. Looking at the colorful flowers in front of her, her thoughts had already drifted away.

Yuanying quietly accompanied her for a long time, and finally walked away quietly, stepping out of the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion.

After Yuanying left, Feng Xihe noticed a figure shaking behind the rockery, so he called out, "Qianyun!"

Qian Yun was taken aback, and walked out with his head down.

She was worried that Feng Xihe also wanted her to go, so she hurriedly explained: "Miss, I was bought from a slave trader by Feng Guogong's mansion. I have no extraordinary family background and no complicated entanglements. You don't need to drive me away." Walk."

Feng Xihe looked back and saw that there was sadness in her eyes, and guessed in her heart that she must have seen something, so she simply didn't hide it from her.

"Qianyun, you go to Mr. Xu immediately and ask him to sell Lu Zhai as quickly as possible, and then divide the sold silver into half and let him take Qingyue away from Jinling City at night, and find a place to go first. Avoid it."

"Lu Zhai is the painstaking effort of the young lady, how can it be said that it can be sold if it is sold?" Qian Yun was shocked, "And the second young lady's injury has not yet healed, I am afraid that she will not be able to withstand the long journey."

"If you don't sell it, it might be destroyed in a few days." Feng Xihe Wei turned his head and said resolutely: "Although Qingyue is seriously injured, it's better to bear the burden than to stay and lose her life."

"I will edit a book, and you can help me give it to my grandfather, and ask him to sell all the property of Feng Guogong's mansion, dismiss the servants in the mansion, and then bring a few trustworthy old servants and grandmothers to the countryside for retirement."

Although Qian Yun knew that Feng Xihe had something on his mind, he didn't expect to sell Luzhai and Feng Guogong's family property, and even let Feng Jing and Feng Qingyue flee separately.

"What about the master?" After a while, Qian Yun asked timidly.

Feng Xihe's eyes turned cold, and the warm spring breeze blew past her body, but it was as cold as a knife.

"Don't worry about him for now." She was silent for a while, and said softly.

Qian Yun seemed to realize that she had said something wrong, and hurriedly followed Feng Xihe into the house.

Qian Yun first went to find Xu Shaozu, conveyed Feng Xihe's words, and then ran to Feng Guogong's mansion with Feng Xihe's written family letter.

But when she got to the Duke's mansion, she saw that there were not many servants left in the mansion. After asking an old man who swept the floor, she found out that last night, Feng Jing and Mrs. Feng had been quietly sent away by the people arranged by Gu Shiyin. gone.

The current Duke Feng's Mansion, in the eyes of outsiders, is no different from the past, what remains is an empty shell, only some cavalry troops are still guarding this ancient mansion, as if guarding the glory of Duke Feng's century-old mansion.

Qian Yun conveyed what she saw to Feng Xihe, Feng Xihe sighed in his heart, Gu Shiyin moved faster than her, but she didn't want to be his burden.

Following her instructions, Xu Shaozu quickly found Luzhai's next home. He took Feng Qingyue out of the city at night and gave the other half of the silver to Feng Xihe.

It's night, outside the house, the rain beats the pear blossoms, and inside the house, a lamp is shining.

Seeing the thick stack of banknotes, Feng Xihe's eyes gradually turned foggy. Perhaps, Feng Jing and Mrs. Feng could only spend the rest of their lives in a foreign land.

She asked Qian Yun to put the banknotes in Dongsheng Bank, and she only kept a small part with her.

Then, she took out a stack of drawings from the bookcase and spread them out on the table.

It was the weapon blueprint that Feng Ruolan gave her before leaving.

Yun Changyi only drew half of each weapon, so Feng Xihe had to carefully hold the paintbrush under the candlelight, thinking about what the other half of them would be like.

After staying up for several days and nights, she filled in all the patterns she could think of, and put them back in the bookcase.

With red eyes, Feng Xihe walked over, opened the door, felt the cool breeze, and looked at the starless night sky.

Since the prince's name was corrected, the power distribution in the court has become more complicated. The third prince, Concubine Zhang De, and Yu Wenjin's pawns in the court are all about to move.Tomorrow will be the celebration of the crown prince's return to court, and probably all parties will take action.

The next day, the palace was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and a bright red carpet was laid from the city gate to the gate of the palace.

Now, everyone in Jinling City is aware of the grievances of those years, and cheers for the redress of the grievances.

The story about the origins of the first empress and concubine Xi was also quietly circulated among the people, saying that they were originally twin flowers who had been cursed with the same life, otherwise, how could they have entered the palace one after another, and then passed away one after another.

A teahouse gentleman also added Yuwenjin, the fourth prince of Huaguo, to the story based on the rumors he heard in the past, adding fuel and vinegar, saying that Yuwenjin fell in love with the first queen at first sight, and after the death of the first queen, he saw through the world and escaped into the world. Empty door.

So, he took the risk, based on the entanglement between the former empress, Concubine Xi, Emperor Changde, and Yu Wenjin, he made up a fictional name and made up a story called "The Broken Mirror".

Therefore, the business of this originally cold tea house suddenly boomed, and even the door could not be crowded with people.

Even though later, the government sent people to strictly prohibit it, but this fictional story has long been known to everyone.

The streets were already full of onlookers, who were scattered to both sides by the imperial guards.

For the prince who survived the catastrophe and was living among the people, the people were full of curiosity and whispered. They all thought that the prince had lived outside for so long and suffered so much.

"Come, come, His Royal Highness, come!" At this moment, someone shouted.

The people on both sides were even more disturbed and looked over eagerly.

However, when they saw Ji Shiliu for the first time, they were all silent.

The spring is bright and beautiful, and the pear blossoms on the side of the road are falling colorfully, falling on Ji Shiliu's shoulders.

Jin Anjun was on his horse. He was dressed in an apricot-yellow four-clawed python robe, and his black hair was tied up by a white jade crown.

His exquisite face was carved like a piece of peerless white jade, his black eyes were as deep as lacquer, and between his brows exuded a natural and noble aura, which made people unable to feel a bit of worldliness.

From the day of Zhaoxue, he was no longer Ji Shiliu, but Gu Jinyuan.

The onlookers were all stunned and held their breath.

Then, a few people secretly discussed: "Hey, have you heard that the former queen has another background, do you think the former queen did something behind her majesty's back, that's why it was so miserable back then?" .”

"You're right. From my point of view, could this prince not be His Majesty's own?"

Several people nodded in agreement, and then, they felt someone hitting their heads, and when their heads hurt, they turned their heads and saw Qian Feifei in the crowd saying angrily: "I don't do business all day long, what are you talking about? Son, if you continue talking, beware of being punished by the Nine Clans!"

"What are you?" The few of them were beaten for no reason, annoyed in their hearts, and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? You are here to fight for His Highness the Crown Prince, and he will not just let you be the Crown Prince."

As he said that, someone recognized Qian Feifei as the eldest lady of Dongsheng Bank, and couldn't help laughing, "I thought I was someone who meddled in other people's business, but it turned out to be Miss Qian. I heard that you have an engagement with His Royal Highness, no wonder You'll come out on top."

"Unfortunately, that was in the past. Now, the gap between you and him is like clouds and mud. Don't even think about it. Many powerful people are eager to put their daughters in there. How can he marry you, the daughter of a merchant?"

Qian Feifei listened, and suddenly, his complexion became ugly.

However, what they said was the truth, and she couldn't avoid it.

At this time, Gu Jinyuan's eyes flicked between the people on both sides, and Qian Feifei turned his head just in time to meet his eyes.

However, his eyes are indifferent, looking at her is no different from looking at other people.

Qian Feifei's heart trembled, and she quickly lowered her head, thinking that the past between them may only be sealed forever.

"How? We're not wrong, right." The few people just now sneered: "Fiancee? Hehe, His Royal Highness doesn't recognize her at all."

"You..." Xiaocui standing beside her wanted to argue with those people, but Qian Feifei grabbed her wrist and dragged her away, "Xiaocui, we don't discuss right and wrong with villains."

After all, she was going in the opposite direction to Gu Jinyuan.

Qian Feifei's walking figure was seen by Gu Fan in a carriage. In order to identify him clearly, Gu Fan lifted the curtain and poked his head out.

"Miss Situ, what are you looking at?" The maid who was serving beside the carriage asked earnestly, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Gu Fan didn't answer, after confirming that it was Qian Feifei, she looked at the back of Gu Jinyuan sitting high on the horse in front of her, and then ordered: "Go to Xianle Pavilion, and take the seven-year-old that the crown prince left there earlier. Send the stringed guqin to Miss Qian, but don't say I asked you to give it to me."

While walking, Qian Feifei felt bitterness in her heart, and felt that the road to Dongsheng Bank was extremely long.

In a trance, she heard someone calling her and couldn't help but stop.

A maidservant wearing a water-red gown came running panting, stuffed a guqin into her arms, and ran away without saying a word.

Qian Feifei hugged the guqin suspiciously, took a closer look, and found out that this seven-stringed guqin was given to Gu Jinyuan by her back then.

At that time, Gu Jinyuan had just been sent to Dongsheng Bank, and was lonely and desolate in the corner holding an old guqin, playing it over and over without saying a word.

She hid in a corner and listened to it for many days. She thought that the boy played very well, so she asked someone to make a new piano for him.

Qian Feifei's eyes lit up, her green fingers touched the guqin, and she played a few clear and melodious sounds. Could it be that Gu Jinyuan wanted to say that he has not forgotten her, but now, there are still various inconveniences?
As she thought about it, she turned around and ran back, trying to find the maid and tell the maid to go back and tell him so that he could feel at ease.

However, she just moved a few steps when she saw the guards in armor walking forward. The number of guards patrolling the city today seemed to be several times higher than usual.
