It was also because Feng Minghao saw Lin Yuwei today that he saw it clearly in his dream that night.
Feng Minghuo watched Feng Haoran, who was clearly his child from his previous life, like an outsider. As the youngest child in the family, he was endlessly doted on by his grandparents, parents, and even his aunt, the Empress.
Haoran was doted on by his two older brothers and his cousin, the Crown Prince. Fortunately, the boy had a kind and gentle nature. Despite being pampered, he did not become a spoiled brat. Although he was indeed more playful than others, he had practiced martial arts since childhood and his ancestral iron silver spear was even enough to hold his own against his second brother.
He got along extremely well with the Fifth Prince, who was raised under the Empress's name. The two of them could be called the tyrants of the capital. However, they did not tyranny ordinary people, but rather those spoiled brats who acted recklessly. Every time they saw those spoiled brats bullying ordinary people or riding horses recklessly in the street, they would beat them up every time they saw them until later those people would hide whenever they saw the two of them.
On the Ghost Festival when he was 13, under the glow of lanterns all over the streets, he met the girl who made his heart flutter. He also learned that she was the eldest daughter and only daughter of the Imperial Censor Lin.
Although born into a family of civil officials, she preferred martial arts to feminine attire. As the only girl of her generation, her elders couldn't handle her and hired a female martial arts instructor to teach her. After mastering her skills, she would occasionally disguise herself as a man and walk around the capital. She was another nemesis of those spoiled young masters in the capital.
That day, Haoran saw Lin Yuwei, dressed in women's clothing, sneaking around behind several people. The little girl beside her looked like she was about to cry. Out of curiosity, he followed them. He learned that Lin Yuwei had actually seen human traffickers. After realizing they were human traffickers, Haoran chased after them and stopped Lin Yuwei and the little girl beside her. He told the little girl to go and report the crime, and then he and Lin Yuwei fought wits and courage with those people until the police arrived.
In their daily interactions, the two of them developed feelings for each other and grew fond of one another. Their elders did not object and planned to marry them after they came of age. During this time, they introduced Lin Yuwei to the Fifth Prince. Among the three of them, the Fifth Prince was the one who suffered the most. He was the cousin and his future cousin's wife, so he became the one who was bullied the most.
Of course, nothing dramatic happened between the three of them. They just continued to get along like this until the two of them were discussing marriage. But then disaster struck. The northern barbarian army attacked the dynasty, and Haoran's father, brothers, and cousin, the crown prince, all died there because of the inaction of the rear. Only his second brother, whose legs were cut off, was sent back and survived.
Subsequently, Haoran resolutely went to the front line to find out the truth behind his father and brother's deaths. Before leaving, he told Lin Yuwei that he would come back to marry her as soon as possible. However, after some investigation, he discovered that his uncle, the emperor, was behind it all. After sending the message back, he was also ambushed by traitors and died on the battlefield with a thousand arrows piercing his heart.
In the past, Feng Minghao would only dream up to this point before waking up, but that night he floated around like a ghost, watching everything that happened after Haoran's death.
Watching Haoran's aunt, the Empress, poison the Emperor with a slow-acting poison after learning the truth, and slowly walk towards death with him, he also watched as his beloved woman and best brother begged the Empress to become husband and wife in name only in order to avenge them. The two of them died amidst a series of calamities, along with the concubine and the second prince who had harmed them.
Watching his good brother suffer from poisoning, though cured, his body was still severely damaged, and his lifespan was short. He could only entrust the children to Lin Yuwei after the concubines gave birth. He watched as his good brother issued an edict before his death, ordering Lin Yuwei to rule as regent. He watched his beloved woman rule as regent, outwitting and outmaneuvering the court officials to protect the rights of his good brother's children, until the young emperor grew up and took over power from her.
Watching her die just three months after relinquishing power, watching her coffin containing only a set of empress's court robes being sent to the emperor's mausoleum, watching the young emperor bring his beloved woman to his tomb to be buried with him.
Liu Minghao watched in his dream, his face bearing an eight-tenths resemblance to the real Lin Yuwei. His heart remained unsettled for a long time until he woke up from his dream. Sitting on the bed, he thought about some of Lin Yuwei's habits from his dream and compared them with what he had often noticed yesterday. Liu Minghao was certain that this Lin Yuwei was the one he had been longing for.
Thinking about this, Feng Minghao couldn't fall back asleep. He got up, washed up, and went to Liu Mingfeng's house. However, it was still early, and everyone was asleep. Moreover, he didn't know how to tell Lin Yuwei. Should he just go up to her and say, "I'm your Haoran, I've come to find you"?
As Liu Minghao pondered this, he paced around Liu Mingfeng's house, feeling agitated. Eventually, unable to calm his emotions any longer, he broke off a straight branch from a nearby tree and began to twirl it around the gate, performing the same marksmanship he had learned in his previous life.
At first, he seemed a little unfamiliar with the technique, but he got faster and faster, even blurring the outline of the tree branch. Before he could finish a set of shots, the people in the courtyard woke up, since he and she had been standing at the door for quite some time.
Liu Mingfeng and Wu Qiaoqiao had actually woken up when Feng Minghao arrived at their door. Liu Mingfeng scanned the outside with his spiritual power and was surprised to see Feng Minghao. He wondered why Feng Minghao had been waiting at the door so long without coming in. Later, he saw Feng Minghao practicing his spear technique outside, and his technique actually looked pretty good. A look of surprise flashed across his face.
At this moment, Liu Mingfeng and Wu Qiaoqiao also heard Zhao Xiuxiang and Lin Yuwei get up. After Zhao Xiuxiang got up, she also heard a whooshing sound outside the door. She and Lin Yuwei didn't even have time to wash up before they quickly walked to the gate. They didn't rush to open the door, since they lived at the foot of the mountain and wild animals would occasionally come to the gate.
Zhao Xiuxiang and Lin Yuwei peeked through the crack in the door and, upon seeing Feng Minghao, Zhao Xiuxiang opened the door first. However, she didn't notice that Lin Yuwei behind her was staring blankly at Feng Minghao, who was practicing his marksmanship.
After Zhao Xiuxiang opened the door, she didn't disturb Feng Minghao. Instead, she and Lin Yuwei stood together looking outside, and Zhao Xiuxiang even promoted her nephew to Lin Yuwei.
“Weiwei, look at my nephew, how is he? He’s so muscular and agile.”
Feng Minghao had stopped at this point, turned around and smiled slightly at Zhao Xiuxiang and Lin Yuwei.
