Chapter 48
The joy at the side was out of control.
Could it be that what he just said was all nonsense? So, he interrupted directly: "You fat girl, didn't I just say that? Your young lady committed suicide! If she committed suicide, there is no way to save her. If she didn't commit suicide, there is still a chance."
"But aren't you gods?" Feicui's voice got louder. She was not afraid, she was staring and questioning.
Shi Xi was so angry that he laughed. "Gods are not omnipotent. How many times must I tell you that your young lady committed suicide? Suicide means ending one's own life. If one does not want to live, there is no hope. Do you understand? Unless one does not want to live, gods can save one. However, if gods interfere with the fate of mortals, they will suffer backlash, okay?"
Maybe Shi Xi’s explanation was very clear, or maybe it was because Shi Xi committed suicide and another young lady didn’t want to live, which stimulated Feicui.
Feicui couldn't hold it back any longer and burst into tears. She didn't care about gods or mortals, she only wanted her young lady. Feicui yelled at Han Fengci, "It's all you, it's all you! If it weren't for you, the young lady wouldn't have committed suicide. Do you know how long the young lady has been waiting for you? She waited for you every day, looking at that broken lantern every day, and exhausted herself."
"Master Han! If you don't like the young lady, why did you provoke her? After provoking her, why did you disappear? Do you know what the young lady has suffered? Why? Why don't you come back earlier!"
"The lady only wants to marry you. She has no other requirements. Why don't you marry the lady? If you don't like the lady, why don't you just say it? Why do you still want to get close to her? Until the end, the lady couldn't bear to say bad things about you. She didn't even allow others to say bad things about you, even if you disappeared, even if you didn't marry her. She called your name countless times in her dreams. Later, she found that she could see you in her dreams, so she began to sleep a lot."
Feicui's eyes seemed to be filled with poison. She stared at Han Fengci viciously, "The young lady said that she has you in her bones and will take you with her wherever she goes. She loves you so much, why! Tell me why!!! Why did you come back!!"
Han Fengci allowed the jade to be torn and beaten, his eyes never left the peacefully sleeping Feng Huanhuan.
Time seemed to have passed for a very long time, so long that Feicui could no longer curse, and so long that Shixi had tried to persuade them several times but to no avail. So he just stood aside and watched coldly. The entire guest room was so quiet that only a few people's breathing remained.
Not knowing whether Han Fengci could wake Feng Huanhuan up, Shi Xi didn't hold out any hope at all. He wished Feng Huanhuan wouldn't wake up. The moment she woke up, Han Fengci would start to suffer the backlash. His current body couldn't withstand even an hour.
After a long time, Feng Huanhuan was still sleeping peacefully. Slowly, Feicui seemed to have lost hope. Her eyes went from shining brightly to dimming, just like a candle flame that was about to burn out, and finally, it went out.
Only Han Fengci had been transferring his true energy into Feng Huanhuan's body.
But no one could see Han Fengci's expression. He listened to every word Feicui said. He was shocked, distressed, he looked at her, obsessed, in love, and finally turned into a twisted bloodthirsty love.
Shi Xi saw a slight red edge flashing in Han Fengci's blue light. He rushed to the couch and transferred his true energy to Han Fengci, and only then did he suppress the slight red flame.
Shi Xi pushed Han Fengci with sweat all over his forehead and shouted, "You are crazy! You almost went crazy!"
Even so, Han Fengci's gaze still remained on Feng Huanhuan, and the blue underworld fire still turned into stars and wrapped around Feng Huanhuan.
Just when Shi Xi was shaking his head frantically and lamenting that Han Fengci was really crazy, a weak and soft voice came to his ears -
"Feng Ci."
Feng Huanhuan woke up. But according to Shixi, it was a last gasp of lucidity, because there was a golden edge of light on Feng Huanhuan's forehead.
Han Fengci hugged Feng Huanhuan and kept kissing her forehead, repeating over and over again: "I'm sorry, I'm late."
Feng Huanhuan smiled and said, "It's not too late. As long as you come back, it's not too late."
"Huan'er..." Han Fengci hugged Feng Huanhuan tightly. From Feng Huanhuan's perspective, she was lying on his chest, and his eyes were full of regretful tears, which fell on Feng Huanhuan's forehead drop by drop.
Feng Huanhuan wanted to raise her hand to wipe Han Fengci's hair, but when she tried hard, she found that she couldn't do it. Then she saw that her whole body was covered with blue dots, and she understood everything.
"Feng Ci." Feng Huanhuan's voice was as light as a feather floating in the air.
Han Fengci looked at Feng Huanhuan and smiled as hard as he could, but his voice couldn't stop trembling: "Huan'er, I'm back, I'm here to marry you."
Feng Huanhuan laughs so beautifully.
Han Fengci's hand was holding Feng Huanhuan's face, stroking it constantly and looking at her. The two of them were staring at each other quietly.
"Feng Ci, in the next life, can we still... meet?"
"Yes." Han Fengci's voice trembled.
"Then... can you come find me? I'm tired of waiting for you, so I'll take a break first. I'll wait for you... wait for you to come find me, wait for you... wait for you to marry me, okay... okay?"
Feng Huanhuan's tone was intermittent at this time. Feicui didn't dare to say anything. She knew that the person the young lady wanted to see was not her. She just needed to look at the young lady.
Han Fengci looked at Feng Huanhuan, whose eyes had already begun to blur, and his body couldn't help shaking more and more. He was scared, and although he was very anxious, he still shook Feng Huanhuan gently, "Huan'er, don't sleep, okay?"
Feng Huanhuan smiled with the corners of her mouth tilted up, and kept looking at him with such gentle eyes.
"Huan'er, don't sleep. Please, don't sleep." Han Fengci sobbed, "Huan'er, don't sleep."
Feng Huanhuan seemed unable to hear anything. She still maintained her faint smile until her eyes slowly closed and Han Fengci spat out a mouthful of blood from the corner of his mouth.
He was still holding Feng Huanhuan, his eyes staring straight ahead, as if he had lost his soul. Blood foamed continuously from the corners of his mouth, and if you listened carefully, you could hear him mumbling, "Huan'er, wait for me to come find you. Wait for me to marry you."
Feicui saw Feng Huanhuan was completely asleep, and a smile appeared on her lips. In her eyes, the young lady had realized her dream. She had waited for Master Han, the Master Han she had been thinking about.
"Miss, please wait for me. I will go find you."
By the time Xifa came to react, Feicui had already hit her head on the nearest bedpost with all her strength.
Jade also left with a smile.
That day, Lan Yueming waited and waited but Feng Huanhuan didn't come out, thinking that she had talked too late last night and stayed up late. She even went to Wusun Xingyan and said that she forgot the time when she was chatting with Feng Huanhuan yesterday, and hoped that Wusun Xingyan would delay the departure time. Wusun Xingyan readily agreed.
But the longer Lan Yueming waited, the more she felt something was wrong, because she didn't see Feicui. So she went to invite him in person. She knocked on the door a few times, but there was no response. Lan Yueming stood at the door for a while, frowned, and kicked the door open.
She has never forgotten that scene even after many years.
Feng Huanhuan died in Han Fengci's arms, and Han Fengci disappeared again after that day. He never showed up until the day of Feng Huanhuan's funeral.
Lan Yueming brought the pink oval porcelain bottle back to Beijing.
Wusun Xingyan fell seriously ill and felt that it was he who caused Feng Huanhuan to become like this.
The Western Regions continued to be a vassal state, but Wusun Xingyan would never set foot in Qingzhao again in his life. For him, Feng Huanhuan was the woman he fell in love with at first sight. What he regretted most was that when they first met, he did not stay in Qingzhao, but chose to return to the Western Regions to marry Feng Huanhuan in the most respectable way he thought. Wusun Xingyan felt that his status was worthy of Feng Huanhuan, but he ignored Feng Huanhuan's feelings. He was guilty of causing this tragedy. Wusun Xingyan was afraid that he would never forget that scene in his life.
The sky was gray-blue. It was summer, but the wind blew in people's faces and made them shiver. Due to Feng Huanhuan's death, the air pressure in the entire Feng Mansion was so low that even geese could not fly in. Bai Tiao stood at the door of the Feng Mansion, looking at the closed red archway, and couldn't tell what emotion she was feeling. Haitang advised, "Miss, I'll wait here."
"How many times has this happened?" Bai Tiao asked.
Haitang responded quickly, with her head lowered, "This is the sixth time."
Bai Tiao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, but did not answer. Haitang did not dare to speak. Since Feng Wubai returned to the capital, the two had not seen each other. Not only that, the young lady took the initiative to visit the Feng Mansion, but was turned away every time. Bai Tiao's daily anxiety was visible to the naked eye, and the entire Prime Minister's Mansion was not much better than the Feng Mansion, it was cold and gloomy. Even if Haitang was ignorant, she knew that something big was about to happen.
The tightly closed door was never opened, and Bai Tiao returned home.
Bai Tiao has become very cautious these days because of Feng Huanhuan's matter. She knows very well that if something happens to her at this time, Feng Wubai will not be able to take care of her. But what Bai Tiao didn't expect was that Feng Wubai simply refused to see her. It would be a lie to say that she was not panicking. With each passing day, she became more panicked.
Her father has seldom come home recently, and sometimes there are many strangers in the mansion in the late night. Bai Tao knows all this. The more Bai Tianting is like this, the more panicked Bai Tao becomes. His father has never been content with his lot, and he has great ambitions. She has known this since she was a child. Bai Tao drank tea, her fingertips tapping the table. Her eyelashes drooped so much that her eyes could not be seen clearly. At this point, she did not dare to pry into Feng Wubai's thoughts. Why did he shut her out? Shouldn't he need her at this time? But the person who passed away was Feng Huanhuan, so no matter what Feng Wubai did, it was justifiable. Bai Tao felt a little torn. There must not be any problems with Feng Wubai. If anything happened, she would never be able to leave the Feng Mansion again in her life.
Bai Tiao often sits like this these days. She doesn't care about Handan. Even if Handan takes the initiative to pick a fight, Bai Tiao doesn't want to pay attention. In her mind, Handan is a pet of the Prime Minister's Mansion. If she wants to play with her, she will take her for a walk. If she doesn't want to pay attention, she will just ignore this person. Even when she passes by, this beast keeps barking beside her to attract her attention. Bai Tiao usually doesn't even bother to give her a glance.
Feng Huanhuan's death pushed many things to happen, and Bai Tiao's worries finally came true. The palace was in chaos. Outside the imperial study, Concubine Cihe had been kneeling for three hours, and even the flies passing by had to take a detour. The eunuchs and palace maids who passed by didn't even dare to raise their eyes, and they wanted to leave the place quickly without breathing.
Just this morning, a big event happened in the court. The left prime minister Bai Tianting was reported by the new Dali Temple. The left prime minister Bai Tianting had been corrupt for many years, embezzled disaster relief funds, colluded with the imperial merchant Yuan family to occupy the people's good farmland, etc. The most surprising thing is that the initiator of the Fuzhou corruption case was the left prime minister who had been in the court for many years.
What was supposed to come has finally come.
