She gently leaned into his embrace. At this moment, her heart was filled with satisfaction, but also incomparable regret. If he was a complete woman at this moment, being able to live in harmony with Peng Jiange and have children, what kind of blissful happiness would that be? However, this kind of happiness was something he would never be able to obtain in his entire life. He would be deprived of it forever.
She was sad, but she didn't show it. What was the point in thinking that she didn't have much time left, that she should be happy while she was in pain?
Yue Pengju was diligent. Other than reading and studying, he bought hoes and other farm tools, and tilled a piece of land next to the house to cultivate some wild vegetables that were easy to survive.
Every time he worked, he would place a big bear skin under a big tree by the side of the ground, letting Hua Rong sit on it, either sit or lie down, so that Hua Rong could chat with him. The husband and wife pair were born today, and the sun was setting. Gradually, not only did Hua Rong's body improve, even Yue Pengju's complexion was better than before. The two of them knew that such a dull life was only beneficial to their bodies and minds.
That evening, Yue Pengju was weeding a lush field of wild onions when he saw Zhang Xian walking over quickly. Yue Pengju put away the hoe, seeing that Zhang Xian's expression was not good, he walked up and casually sat on the bear skin next to his wife, and asked: "Zhang Xian, what else do you want?"
Zhang Xian let out a long sigh, "Sigh, I never would have thought that Qin Gui would be appointed as the Minister of Rites."
Hua Rong's mouth was agape. It was unbelievable, for a moment, she did not understand who this "Qin Gui" was.
Zhang Xian knew she was shocked, and said, "It was the former champion, Qin Gui, who returned from Jinguo and was taken as the Minister of Rites by His Majesty …"
Hua Rong asked: "How could that be?"
"It's the news from the Oolong Town's business trip. It says that it's the most popular thing in Da Song's capital, and it's been appointed for almost two months. They all praised Qin Gui for his dignity as a 'Su Wu', saying that right now, everyone in the entire Da Song is praising him, and his majesty also trusts him quite a bit. "
Yue Pengju was also very astonished, and was unable to speak for a while.
Hua Rong suddenly sat up: "Qin Gui, this shameless couple, are both Fourth Prince's spies. When I return to Da Song this time, it's definitely a spy, they want to destroy my Da Song's mountains and rivers."
Zhang Xian and Yue Pengju had the same thoughts, Hua Rong immediately said: "No, we must think of a way to reveal Qin Gui's identity to Shangguan Family, or else, this Da Song will definitely die in his hands once again."
Yue Pengju was not as impulsive as his wife, and slowly said: "This matter needs to be carefully considered."
Hua Rong said anxiously: "Since Qin Gui is the Minister of Rites, isn't that the biggest joke in the world? I had mentioned before in the past that Qin Gui was suspicious in front of Shangguan Family, why is he not on his guard at all? "
Yue Pengju was familiar with the history books, and had trained in the army for a long time. He had been a hero and upright gentleman like Zong Ze, and had also been a subordinate of an unscrupulous general like Du Chong, so he naturally had a much deeper understanding of politics than Hua Rong. Since Qin Gui had gained the trust of the Emperor the moment he returned, he must have made up a reasonable excuse to make sufficient preparations. It was impossible to change the emperor's mind with just a few words. Furthermore, the current Son of Heaven, was not a Great Sage King. Otherwise, he wouldn't be using Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan's power so heavily.
He pondered for a moment, then said: "Currently, there are many internal conflicts in the Jinguo, and we are not able to attack Song. I believe that when Qin Gui returns, he will be able to negotiate with us."
Hua Rong immediately understood the underlying meaning of his words. She had personally experienced the Emperor's desire to make peace, and had initially hoped that after reading her imperial report and learning that her mother and wife had met with an inhuman situation, he would firm up her resolve to fight. However, on second thought, maybe she would be more inclined to 'negotiate'? Who could understand the thoughts of a sovereign? If Qin Gui had used "peace of mind" to please the emperor, the two would instantly match. The current emperor's lack of an official was precisely this kind of person who was familiar with the inner workings of the Jinguo, thus, it was not strange for Qin Gui to be highly valued.
The more she thought about it, the more shocked she became. In the blink of an eye, she looked at Pengju, only to see that he was also frowning deeply. Hua Rong then said: "Whatever, no matter what, I have to write a letter and tell Shangguan Family the details of Qin Gui and his wife that I met in Jinguo. As for whether or not he listens, that is his business."
Yue Pengju knew his wife's personality, so he did not go against her, and picked up a pen and paper, and said: "Your health is not good, dictate the words, and I will write them for you."
Hua Rong shook her head: "Pengju, it's still me, I'm the one who sent the Jinguo, not you, the Jinguo. If you're the one with the brush, this person from the Shangguan Family, sigh … "I'm afraid he doesn't believe me in the end …"
Yue Pengju was helpless, he could only allow her to slowly write.
The contents of the letter were prepared by the couple. It was completely straightforward.
"When Hua Rong heard that Qin Gui had returned from the Gold City, she advised the other party to get along with the other party, and now, she has become the's Minister of Rites. Hua Rong had visited the Jinguo and personally witnessed the banquet there. At that time, Qin Gui had acted as his staff officer and his wife, the Wang's disease, had been involved with the Fourth Prince. The two of them definitely came back this time under the orders of the Fourth Prince, they were to spy on the Fourth Prince, and destroy our entire Da Song. It's not difficult to find out whether or not the Shangguan Family is real. You just need to bring Qin Gui and his wife down to marble temple Prison to investigate and they will find out. "
The letter wasn't long. After it was written, Yue Pengju sealed it for her and gave it to Zhang Xian.
Zhang Xian held great expectations for this, he had followed Hua Rong to the Jinguo, and was well aware of how dirty Qin Gui and his wife were. He only hoped that the Emperor would believe that Hua Rong had defeated Qin Gui, and that would be good.
The couple watched Zhang Xian leave, and only then did Hua Rong sigh: "But call me God's blessing, don't let Qin Gui ruin my Da Song's mountains."
Yue Pengju merely hugged his wife's shoulders. It had been a long time since he had had so much hope and confidence towards Zhao Deji compared to his wife. Since Qin Gui was already in office, with just a few words, how could it be easy for him to withdraw?
When he saw that his wife was still worried, he sighed. His husband and wife were hiding here, and originally didn't care about worldly matters. They only cared about recuperating, but where in this world would they find a true pure land? In the end, it was just a trivial matter.
He smiled and said, "I'll draw you a portrait, okay?"
Hua Rong knew that he was teasing her for fun and sighed, "Whatever, who can care so much about this world? "Peng Ju, quickly draw. I want to see if your painting skills have improved …"
"Hehe, you have improved a lot! If you don't believe me, Big Sister Shi Qi, just wait and see. "
As for King Qin and the others, they had already found the Lingzhi. He was extremely anxious, how could he bear with it?
Ma Su and the others saw that he was frowning and worrying everyday, and the longer he stayed, the more irascible he got.
On this day, when King Qin was about to force his way in again, Ma Su hurriedly said, "This humble one has already known the butler of Fourth Prince's Palace, and I believe that it will only take three to five days for me to get the appropriate opportunity …"
"Fuck, this time it's 3 to 5 days, that time it's 3 to 5 days …" This trip to the Shang Jing, adding to the delay, countless of days have passed. Adding the time spent on the journey back, who knows if the little girl will be able to survive that long? " Besides, he had a selfish desire to return before the fifth day of the eighth month. She could be considered as having a birthday for the girl and had fulfilled her wish. She only had twenty days left.
"Madam's life is still safe after one and a half years. The reason why I took the Lingzhi is to completely cure it. If we barge in recklessly and fail to accomplish anything, wouldn't it be a waste of our time? "
King Qin saw that his words were reasonable, he could not argue with Ma Su, so he could only say: "Fine, I will wait two more days. If not, I will barge in and kill Bird Jin Wushu first. Saving people is like saving the fire. We can't wait any longer … "
That night, King Qin went to bed early. In the dream, it was all the night that he and the girl got married. That night, he did not know how to learn to be gentle and lightened his strength. This was also the first time he realized that the woman in his arms was not as cold as charcoal. That kind of intoxicating feeling was something that would always remain in his memory, unforgettable. Even if it were many other women, they would no longer have this feeling of wanting to die. It was the first time in his life that he had experienced the beauty of "mutual affection", and because of this, he could not forget it. After so many years of searching, he had often dreamed of this scene. Every time he woke up from a dream, he was always more eager and hopeful — he would be able to find his wife immediately and bring her back to comfort her. However, ever since Hua Rong was injured, he had never had this kind of beautiful dream again. Tonight, he would lie down and dream like this the whole night.
That was truly the past!
That woman would never belong to him again.
Because of this, the more romantic and charming it was, the more deeply one thought about it, entangled by desire, completely unable to release it. One could only feel pain until their eyes turned scarlet, as if they were about to ignite on fire.
"Little girl, little girl!"
Just as he reached the door, he saw Ma Su rushing over in a hurry, "Great King, this lowly one has found out the news. Lingzhi has indeed arrived at the Fourth Prince Manor and is being kept by his wife."
"Is that Ye Lvguanyin?"
"It should be. She has the most influence in the Crown Prince's Palace now." We have already investigated her courtyard. This is the map of Fourth Prince Palace … "
