"It's all in the past, there's no need to bring it up again." Feng Xunxi closed his eyes, not wanting to continue discussing this topic.
…
Later, Ruan Ruan gave her a copy of Wan Ge, a story about Feng Xunxi's childhood.
Consort Ling did not become empress due to poor health, and she gave birth to Feng Xunxi in that same year.
That year, the emperor had just ascended the throne, and that year, Feng Xunjin's mother became the empress.
Even though she was the emperor's ideal woman, he didn't have much time to spend with Consort Ling.
Because of the lack of companionship from her lover and the disbelief that she had gone from being the principal wife to a concubine, Consort Ling was not only depressed during that period.
She vented all these negative emotions on her newborn child.
Feng Xunxi's physical condition was initially only slightly weaker than that of an average person, not to the point of being particularly bad.
It was because whenever Feng Xunxi fell ill, the emperor would visit Consort Ling, and Consort Ling seemed to have grasped something.
In the dead of night, amidst the heavy snow, Feng Xunxi, whose resistance was already weaker than the other children, was made to stand outside until he developed a fever. Only then did the emperor hurriedly send for the imperial physician and inform the emperor.
Feng Xunxi developed his fear of the cold around that time, which later led to his poor health.
Actually, his health could still be salvaged, but at that time he completely gave up on treatment.
It was only after Wan Ge appeared that Feng Xunxi wanted to regain a healthy and beautiful body. So he asked the renowned doctor by his side to treat him.
Changing one's constitution is a rather painful process, requiring not only acupuncture and medication, but also exercise and diet.
During the time that Feng Xunxi did not appear in front of Wan Ge, he was constantly dealing with these things, and would occasionally take a day or two to meet with her.
From the time Feng Xunxi could remember, he knew that his father did not love him; his father only loved his mother. His mother was even more so; she used to love his father, but later only felt hatred.
His maternal grandfather didn't like him either; to his grandfather, he was just a pawn that could help him.
At that time, he felt that even though he was a prince, he was not accepted or loved, as if no one in the world had ever welcomed his arrival.
The reason he started doing so much was simply that he didn't want to be a pawn; he didn't want to take orders from anyone.
…
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the Prince's mansion; from this day forward, this would be their home. Wan Ge took his hand and they alighted from the carriage.
"Husband, do you look forward to living with me for the rest of your life?" Wan Ge asked earnestly, looking into his eyes.
Are you looking forward to it? He used to have no vision of the future, and he never thought about it. He just wanted to be with her forever for as long as he could imagine.
The future? What will the future be like?
But perhaps he was looking forward to the scene of Yu Wan Ge playing the zither and lute in harmony that appeared in his mind.
Feng Xunxi nodded immediately.
…
That night, Feng Xunxi was pinned to the bed, and Wan Ge suddenly asked him a question: "If I weren't me, would you still like me?"
When Feng Xunxi heard this question, he was suddenly touched. Why did Wan Ge ask this question?
Thinking about her completely different reaction, Feng Xunxi suddenly had an idea.
Then he smiled: "I will always love the you in front of me right now."
——
①It turns out you are no longer who you were, but that's okay, because the person I love is the one standing in front of me right now.
②We will never be apart, not until death do us part.
③My life had no future, but you gave me one.
—Feng Xunxi
