After Becoming the Hero’s Ex-fiancée - Chapter 20

[Chapter 20 Wan Nian Qi]

“Little lady, the road ahead is blocked and I can’t pass.”

Before the carriage arrived at the house, he called the driver to a halt with a squeak.

Zheng Wan heard the loud voices in front of her from a distance, and hurriedly asked Hui Dai to open the curtain and look out. I saw that the entire road of Ronghe Lane was blocked, and the frames of the two-wheel drive and three-wheel drive were all blocked at the entrance of the alley, and they slowly lined up to enter.

“Whose family is holding a wedding?”

Who can live in Ronghe Lane, which one is not a noble person in Shangjing? But there is no noble person with such a style, who can make all these frames obediently line up.

“Let’s go and find out.”

The coachman jumped out of the carriage.

However, Huo Dai stepped out and glanced out a few times. After a while, she suddenly patted her forehead:

“Little lady, look, isn’t that brown-clothed bunt a small way?”

Zheng Wan took a closer look, didn’t she? The person who presided over the order in front was indeed the charioteer in his house, young and active, and he even set up a car for her in the morning.

At this time, the driver has returned with the news:

“Little lady, these people are all here to congratulate you on your birthday.”

“Congratulations on my birthday?”

But Zheng Wan clearly remembered that she had discussed it with Aye and A-Niang a few days ago. This year’s birthday was not a big deal, so she just had a few bowls of longevity noodles for herself, and she didn’t give any support at all.

“It was said that these nobles came to congratulate themselves.”

The driver got into the car and pulled on the reins, “Master ordered you to go through the corner door, little lady.”

Fortunately, Zheng Wan’s frame stayed for a short time, and after a while, it went around to the corner door smoothly. Sure enough, someone was waiting at the corner door beforehand, and the chain was opened to let people in, and they walked along the hand porch all the way. A burst of cheerful laughter, very lively.

Zheng Wan also heard the loud voice of her third aunt.

“Mommy, who is here today?”

Leading the way was the maid next to the Wang family, who said diligently, “The King Jin and King Huai’s family are here, the eldest princess, the county head of Rongyi, and the Duke of Chu, Duke of Zhen, Duke of Liang, Liu’s family, Wang’s family… Everyone with heads and faces in Shangjing has come, and so has His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince.”

With that said, people have already arrived at the door.

“Yo, look, the birthday star is here today.”

Wang’s people are in good spirits at happy events. When they see Zheng Wan coming over, they hurriedly beckoned to her: “Wan Wan, come to see the ladies, they all came here specially to celebrate your birthday.”

Zheng Wan noticed Rong Qin and Mrs. Jiang San, who were huddled in the corner with reluctance, and the unpleasantness of their birthdays dissipated immediately.

When the enemy was unhappy, she was happy, Zheng Wan smiled with frowning eyes, and Ying Ying was blessed with a salute:

“I have seen you ladies.”

“It’s really extraordinary.”

Rong Qin listened to a group of people blowing flattery as if they didn’t want money, his face darkened again, goodbye Zheng Wan was so complacent, so proud that he was as big as the colorful-tailed pheasant circled in the Holy Lord Bailu Garden. The bird has a good fight, and it is even more angry.

may be —

“It’s good luck.”

Madam Jiang San mumbled.

“If you want to be envious, you can also go?” Rong Qin was not happy, so he didn’t want to make others happy, “But I have to see if the national teacher can see your face.”

“you–”

Madam Jiang San was furious, turned her head and said nothing.

After Zheng Wan’s socializing, she went here and there, and in the compliments of the crowd, she seemed to have returned to the past—no, even more so, in her most complacent past, she had never been treated like this.

Everyone held her carefully, for fear of making her unhappy at all, and praised her from head to toe, and then from feet to head, until she was completely comfortable.

Zheng Wan admits that kind words make her happy.

She loved these pompous and vanity, but she didn’t forget that everything in front of her was just a mirage. Without Cui Wang, there would be nothing.

And now she has Cui Wang——

It’s like there’s nothing left.

“Wan Niang, Wan Niang!”

Rong Yi interrupted Zheng Wan’s thinking. When she saw it was Rong Yi, her expression slowed down and her voice softened: “What’s the matter?”

“My aunt asked me to share this with you.”

Rong Yi handed over a talisman folded into a triangle, “She specially invited it from Xingjue Temple, one for you and one for me, to protect the marriage.”

Speaking of “marriage”, Rong Yi blushed.

Zheng Wan couldn’t help pinching her face. When she received the marriage talisman, she looked up at the Eldest Princess and saw that she had turned around as if nothing had happened. A little boy came panting with his legs upside down.

“The state and the state teacher’s office have sent He Yi!” When everyone gasped, the servant said beamingly, “Master Shoufu is accompanying the master state teacher here in person.”

Say that Cao Cao Cao Cao will arrive.

A group of people came in a mighty way in front of them, all dressed in brocade and splendid clothes. The man in the middle was very different. He was wearing an elegant and pure bamboo green robe. He was naked. .

He strode forward, his eyes were cold, like the coldest and coldest handful of snow on the tip of the mountain. At a glance, it could make people freeze away, and when it drifted to a certain place, it was as cold as frost and snow. His eyes were bent and turned into a puddle of water in an instant.

Soft and soft.

Everyone couldn’t help but follow his line of sight, and when they saw Zheng Wan with a blushing face at the end, they all said “oh” in unison: It should be like this.

“My nephew—”

Zheng Zhai still has a guilty conscience towards this person. Speaking of which, their Zheng Cui family’s marriage contract was passed down from his grandfather’s generation, but in his generation, both sides only gave birth to a belt, so they had to continue. to the next generation. At that time, the Cui family was defeated. How could he be willing to marry Jiao Di Di’s daughter to suffer from such a poor family, so he just found a reason to drive him out.

Who could have imagined that after years, these things would become like this?

“It’s all my fault in the past. If you want to blame, blame me. Wanwan is fashionable and young, and she is not sensible—”

But Cui Wang had already stepped into the threshold, walked straight to Zheng Wan, and spread his palm toward her: “Feng Pei.”

Zheng Wan followed him in a daze, reaching out to take off the phoenix pendant that pressed the skirt and hand it over to him.

Cui Wang put his palms together, and saw a white light burst from his palm, stabbing everyone’s eyes.

“A drop of blood.” Zheng Wan only felt a pain in her fingertips, and a small whirlwind rushed into Feng Pei with her red blood.

“Cui Wang, what are you doing?”

She stood on tiptoe curiously.

Cui Wang gathered his attention, his Yuan Li energized, and suddenly saw a phoenix rushing out from the phoenix pendant, circling the sky and playing with the fire dragon that came from nowhere, swam around and swooped down, sinking into the phoenix pendant just now. ,Disappear.

Everyone in the room prostrates and bows:

“Miracle! Miracle!”

Cui Wang tied the phoenix pendant with shark silk for her and hung it around her neck: “This thing is called ‘Fenglong’, and it is made of the flowers of Liuzhao and the essence of phoenix feathers. You can wear this thing anytime and anywhere. , I can come to find you.”

Zheng Wan suddenly remembered the scene in the past when she held the phoenix pendant to relieve the pain when her heart palpitated.

In this way, not only his dragon pendant, but also her phoenix pendant?

In the dream, after Cui Wang was beaten by her, Long Pei fell to the ground and shattered. It happened that blood dripped on it, and Cui Wang was allowed to drop his blood to recognize the master. The Qingyuan sword energy of the earth, and the great ancestor of the Cui family, who have guided the maze and made jokes all the way since then——

His flawless glazed body coveted by everyone in the comprehension world also told this dragon pendant to cover up the past.

The so-called “Fenglong”——

If they were really Long Pei’s pair, they wouldn’t be so tasteless.

The old ancestor turned and turned over and over in Cui Wang’s sea of knowledge.

“Xiao Wangwang, give her ‘Fenglong’ to recognize her as the master, and she will be the first to let you know when she thinks about others in the future, so you can rush to kill your rival, right?”

“Dirty, really dirty.”

Zheng Wan carefully touched Feng Pei, the corners of her mouth curled up:

“Cui Wang, you are so kind.”

Cui Wang pursed his lips, and there was a smile in his eyes. Zheng Zhai led him to take a seat. Zheng Wan made a “go and come” gesture to him, pretending to change clothes, and went to the left side of the main room.

She was not afraid of Cui Wang peeking.

He has always been very decent when he is not “ill”.

Huo Dai closed the door and backed away.

Zheng Wan took out the marriage talisman that Rong Yi had just given her from the sachet. Slowly, she cut it open with scissors. She took out a finely rubbed wax ball and unfolded it. There were only four words:

“Liu Yi escaped.”

Zheng Wan stood up abruptly, subconsciously going to the eldest princess to ask for a clearer question, and after calming herself down, she sat down again.

That day, the arrangement of people in the plum garden depended entirely on the eldest princess, and this time, she had already troubled her a lot, and it was not advisable to go beyond the distance.

No problem, Zheng Wan burned the note on the wax, washed her hands seriously, and went out again after changing her clothes. She stepped into the corridor and heard someone mentioning the marriage between the prince and the Liu family.

“…Liu’s family is upright, and the daughters raised are naturally good.”

“But how did I hear that the concubine in their family had a riot over the death of an aunt a while ago? It’s just the one with red scars on his face!”

“It’s also Mrs. Liu who is kind and soft-hearted. The concubine didn’t understand the rules and entered the banquet. The second lady even told the prince to invite the imperial doctor to see it, but who can earn a life? He died with a kick in a few days. The nonsense is that Mrs. Liu poisoned her and made Mr. Liu so popular that she directly found a matchmaker and married her away from a distance, and it’s been almost half a month since she left.”

“By the way, this person is really-”

Someone lowered his voice, “Mrs. Liu did it?”

“It’s just a concubine, born with poor luck and low life, how can you blame others?”

Zheng Wan was thoughtful and was about to walk forward when she heard a familiar voice behind her, gentle and gentle:

“Mother Wan, I have something to tell you.”

Zheng Wan raised her eyebrows and turned around to see that it was the prince. He was dressed in white silk with gold rims, wearing a golden crown, and walking with soap boots.

“What’s the matter? I’ll say it here.”

“Lonely, lonely…” He took a step closer and saw Zheng Wan take a step back, so he could only shake his head and smile bitterly, “I just want to talk to you, my heart is annoyed.”

“If Your Highness is bored, why don’t you look for Lady Liu Er.”

“That woman with a fool’s tongue and a snake’s heart?” The prince snorted, “Even his own sister is going to be murdered, it’s a shame…”

Zheng Wan was refreshed: “What do you mean by Your Highness?”

“The day before yesterday, I was depressed. I went hunting in the paddock in the western suburbs and rescued a person. Who do you think? It’s my good fiancee’s concubine sister, such a poor person, she actually sent someone to take her—”

“Miss Liu San? Then where is she?” Zheng Wan’s face was naive.

“I was afraid that something would happen to her alone, so I brought her here.”

In the main room, Cui Wang stood up.

Zheng Zhai only felt that the room that was still warm just now suddenly became cold and whizzing. After calling for people to add brazier, the young man who was still talking just now disappeared.

Cui Wang looked at the man and woman who were talking and laughing at Yanyan not far away, and only felt that there was a place in his heart that blocked a thousand-year-old iron, and he couldn’t swallow it or spit it out.

“Lord State, State Teacher—”

Just as he was about to move forward, a woman in white jumped out in front of him, her eyes were bulging out, and she was wearing a veil, but this veil was of no use to Cui Wang.

“roll.”

Cui Wang came up with a word.

“Master National Teacher Mingjian! Have you ever given someone a hairpin before?”

The man knelt on the ground, whimpered and took out the white brocade handkerchief that had been hidden in his arms all the way, spread it out, the bloodstone fragments shone brightly, and the word ‘Cui’ appeared on it.

Cui Wang really got his attention.

“I, I picked it up on the stone boat, this thing was obviously pawned by me the day before yesterday… I, I guess, Master Guo Shi was the one I picked up at the gate of the Shoufu Mansion that day and sent it to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment. , right or wrong?”

“Head up.”

Madam Liu San raised her head tremblingly.

“Huh?” The Crown Prince saw, “San Niangzi, what are you doing to stop the National Teacher? If there are grievances, you should find your father.”

Zheng Wan thought for a while, turned her head, but saw Cui Wang looking down at the slender girl on the ground with an indistinct expression on her face.
