Chapter 483: Cutting the Wind (7)
Now that the conversation has started, it seems natural to say anything.
Huo Zhanfeng finally asked the question that had always been on his mind.
"Miss Cheng, why did you come to the capital alone, risking your life to sneak into the palace, and investigate the truth for the Huo family?"
He only heard Jingya say that she went there for him.
I didn't believe it at all at that time.
After arriving in Xichuan and listening to his brothers' stories, he began to believe it a little.
However, I still feel confused.
He is not a young boy anymore. He has experienced love between men and women and has two lovely daughters at home.
I haven’t thought about remarriage. Maybe I will find a wife who is suitable for the family and good to my daughter in the future, or maybe not. I will just let nature take its course and have no expectations.
Faced with a girl's sudden emotions, he really didn't know how to deal with it.
She was very nice, with bright eyes and a temperament that he admired.
Therefore, I don't want to let myself, who is as calm as water, delay such a good girl.
"I, I just want to know why they want to eradicate the Huo family. I don't understand, I can't figure it out, so I want to find the answer." Cheng Ruoying said.
She didn't say it was for him.
Huo Zhanfeng was even more confused.
“When I was ten years old, my father was ostracized and wanted to come to Xichuan.
I don't understand. We are all working for the court. Why do you have to harm me and I have to harm you?
On the way to Xichuan, we experienced seven or eight dangers, and the number of guards accompanying us became fewer and fewer. The last time, there were only three of us left.
When we arrived in Xichuan, we had no money and no one to help us, and it was difficult to move. I remember that in the first winter, in order to avoid freezing to death, my sister, my father and I slept on a kang.
Dad is a scholar who values rules and etiquette, but at that time, he couldn't care less. Survival was the most important thing."
Cheng Ruoying wiped away a tear from her cheek without leaving a trace.
Huo Zhanfeng felt as if he was stung in the chest.
"At that time, I wondered why the officials in the capital were so different from those in Xichuan, and why there were dangers everywhere after leaving the safe capital.
When I was fourteen, you came and everything went smoothly.
Whatever your father discusses with you will be carried out without any obstacles.
Dad said, it would be great if there were more Huo families in the world.
The world wouldn't be so dark.
Without the loyal people of the Huo family, Dongyang would collapse."
"So, after the Huo family got into trouble, I couldn't stay in Xichuan anymore. I just wanted to know what they were thinking. What on earth were they thinking?"
Cheng Ruoying's tone was filled with the grief and indignation she felt at that time.
She looked at Huo Zhanfeng and saw him staring at her. His eyes were dark and difficult to understand, and it was like ripples and flashes of light.
Her heart was beating again. Of course, it was because of Huo Zhanfeng that she went to the capital.
After all, he was the only member of the Huo family she knew, so he was the Huo family and the Huo family was him.
Cheng Ruoying's face was a little red from the fire and her mouth was dry.
"Go on." Huo Zhanfeng said in a low voice.
Cheng Ruoying pursed her lips and continued, "Now the Huo family is in charge, I'm so happy.
I know that in our Daqi, many Huo families will gradually emerge.
You are working hard, and many people are working hard.
The everlasting torch grows in the darkness, and the dawn will finally come."
"May there be no evil beyond the mountains, and no wolves or tigers on the roads of the nine provinces."
There is no evil outside the mountains, and there are no jackals and tigers on the roads of the Nine Provinces!
Huo Zhanfeng's heart trembled violently.
In the darkness of the night, the woman's words burned like a flame, scorching his soul.
This is different from the passionate impulse of youth, this is the resonance of the soul.
He looked deeply, and couldn't take his eyes off for a while.
"Oh my god, my Lord, it's all burnt to charcoal!"
Lei Feng brought over some water on a large leaf and stared at the birds in the two men's hands in amazement.
It's totally blurry and I can't make out anything.
Huo Zhanfeng and Cheng Ruoying threw away the branches in their hands at the same time, as if they were eager to destroy evidence.
"Haha, Prince, Princess, you two should take a rest and let me take over."
Lei Feng excitedly took over the rest of the work and quickly roasted the remaining birds.
Seeing that both of them had finished eating, he went to set up the folding tent he brought with him.
"Your Highness, I only have this one tent with me. You and Princess, please make do with it. I have already laid out a thick layer of hay."
"Shut up!"
"Hey, okay, I'll be guarding over there."
In the darkness of the night, Huo Zhanfeng turned around, his voice a little tense: "Miss Cheng, your injury hasn't healed yet, you should get some rest. I'll be guarding outside."
"Your Highness, you'd better come in. If the village chief gets suspicious, he'll pester you again."
Huo Zhanfeng thought that the village chief must have heard that they were not husband and wife.
But how could Cheng Ruoying not know? She was just pretending to be stupid.
"Your Majesty, please come in. I have something to say to you."
Huo Zhanfeng thought he must be confused, as he actually got into a girl's tent.
"Your Highness, I have nothing to do with Fan Chengyou. I am innocent."
"My Lord, can I be your princess?"
"I don't want the position of princess. I want to be your wife, no matter who you are."
It was pitch black inside the tent, and Cheng Ruoying accurately grasped the man's hand.
"Your Majesty, I have admired you since I was fourteen."
…
The people of Wa Village still prefer to live in their caves and be savages.
No one is willing to submit to Daqi.
Huo Zhanfeng did not force him and promised that as long as he was there, no one would dare to bully Wa Pu Village.
They were also given some bows and arrows for hunting and some food.
Only the female leader gave up her position and asked Huo Zhanfeng to take her to the capital to find Feng Jue.
The female village chief, after washing her face and putting on Hanfu, was an absolute beauty, and Lei Feng was stunned again.
He even quietly approached the man and said, "Actually, I don't have a woman. I was just kidding."
"Do you have anything to do with me? You look like a stud cow, and you will be indispensable in the future!"
Lei Feng: “%￥#@…”
