Chapter 194 Break In
What Chu Ruohan said was too unbelievable. Considering what happened after she married into the Anyang Marquis' Mansion, Gu Junze could not find any other reason.
He gently stroked Chu Ruohan's cheek, and the emotion in his eyes was something Chu Ruohan could not understand.
"Jun Ze..."
"I only hate myself for not protecting you in my previous life." His voice was very hoarse.
Just these words brought Chu Ruohan to tears. He felt sorry for her. He felt sorry for her...
Chu Ruohan allowed herself to fall into Gu Junze's arms. How could she deserve his trust?
A man's deep love is nothing more than the suffering you have endured in the torrent of time, and the hatred that he did not appear earlier.
Love to the extreme heartache!
His slightly trembling hands gently stroked her hair, "In this life, I will never let you suffer any injustice again."
Chu Ruohan buried her head in his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, her tears soaking his clothes.
Those past experiences, being slandered, beaten, tortured...all kinds of things...
At this moment, in Gu Junze's arms, everything became distant and blurry.
At this moment, in the silent night, two broken hearts snuggled up to each other... until death.
At dawn, Feng knelt all night.
The nights of late spring are so cold that they can kill people.
Her lips were frozen purple, her body was shaking uncontrollably, and her legs were numb and had no feeling.
Due to hunger and cold, he could no longer bear it and passed out.
Seeing this, the young eunuch standing by hurried to report.
Ma Fuhai was the emperor's trusted eunuch, so how could he really suffer with Feng? He was invited to the Anyang Marquis's mansion last night.
"Eunuch...Eunuch Ma..."
It was still dark at this moment, and Ma Fuhai was having a sweet dream when he was awakened by the young eunuch who barged in rashly.
“Who is it?”
Ma Fuhai yelled in a shrill voice, his face full of anger, and reached out to throw the whisk beside his pillow at the young eunuch.
"How dare you! Can't you see that we are sleeping?"
The young eunuch was so frightened that he fell to his knees with a thud, his forehead pressed against the ground. "Eunuch Ma, spare me! It was Feng Shi...she fainted. I dared not fail to report it."
When Ma Fuhai heard this, his brows knitted into a knot and he spat impatiently.
"That's all it is? You're disturbing her sleep so early in the morning! She fainted, so you just poured a basin of water on her to wake her up. Why are you bothering us?"
"ah?"
"What? It was the Emperor who told her to kneel. As long as she has breath left in her body, she has to kneel properly."
Ma Fuhai's eyes widened in anger, and he pointed at the door, "Get lost..."
The young eunuch crawled to his feet from the ground and went to find some water, fearing that if he was a second late he would be eaten alive by Ma Fuhai.
Looking at Feng who was frozen unconscious, the young eunuch gritted his teeth, raised his hands, and with a "splash", poured the entire basin of cold water on Feng from head to toe.
The biting cold instantly enveloped Feng. She suddenly woke up from her coma and her body instinctively trembled violently.
His lips, already purple from the cold, now lost all color, and his teeth chattered uncontrollably.
The wet clothes stuck to her body, and the cold wind blew through her, chilling her to the bone.
She slowly opened her eyes, shivering even more. Looking at the indifferent eunuchs around her, a wave of sadness welled up in her heart.
She opened her mouth, but her throat seemed to be blocked and she could only make a faint "woohoo" sound, and even tears could not flow out.
An exquisitely decorated carriage stopped in front of the Anyang Marquis Mansion.
The curtain of the car was quickly opened, and Mrs. Shan jumped out of the car anxiously, and saw Feng, who was in a miserable state, at a glance.
"Son..."
"mother……"
Mrs. Shan took a few steps forward, quickly took off her cloak, and wrapped Feng tightly.
Then she hugged her daughter in her arms, tears streaming down her face, her voice changing in tone with heartache.
"My son, she clearly wants to kill you!"
"Mom, why are you here?" Feng asked weakly?
"Such a big thing has happened, how could mother not come? Don't worry, your grandmother is here too."
After hearing this, Feng felt much more at ease.
She followed Mrs. Shan's gaze and saw General Weiyuan carefully supporting a hunchbacked old woman walking towards them.
"Grandma..." Feng called softly, with a hint of grievance in her voice.
The old man slammed the crutch in his hand against the ground, making a dull sound.
"My precious granddaughter, how could she have ever suffered such hardship?"
At this time, the young eunuch on the side saw this scene and thought to himself that something was wrong, so he asked someone to quickly invite the steward Ma.
Then he stepped forward and saluted, "Old Lord..."
Before he could finish his words, he was slapped in the face with a loud "slap".
The old Duke's wife didn't even look at the eunuch who was covering his face with his hands. She turned around and ordered, "Go and help Chun'er into the carriage and change her clothes."
"grandmother……"
"Don't worry, I'm here."
Ma Fuhai couldn't sleep any longer, so he quickly got up and ran out, not even bothering to put on his shoes. The young eunuch held up his shoes for him from behind.
"Old Lord Feng, why are you here?" Ma Fuhai had a smile on his face, but he was secretly complaining in his heart.
"If I hadn't come, my granddaughter would have been tortured to death by you." The old Fengjun replied bluntly, his eyes full of anger.
"What are you talking about? I am just following orders."
As Ma Fuhai spoke, he caught a glimpse of the slap mark on the face of his trusted eunuch from the corner of his eye, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
He looked at Feng again and saw that she had been helped up by the servants.
"Old Lord Feng, you can't do this. The emperor has ordered that the Crown Prince's wife be forgiven. When can Madam Feng get up?" Ma Fuhai hurriedly stopped him.
The old Duke's wife snorted coldly, "How can you kneel with wet clothes? If you freeze to death, will you compensate me with a granddaughter?"
Ma Fuhai cursed the old man in his heart, but he remained respectful on the surface, "I can't explain to the emperor..."
The old Duke's wife waved her hand and said impatiently, "Alright, wait until you change your clothes before kneeling again. Is the father-in-law satisfied?"
Ma Fuhai was choked and speechless, and could only grit his teeth.
Old rascal...
The old Duke's wife turned around, her eyes piercing as she looked at her grandson-in-law beside her, "Shao Yu, break in and bring the person out to me."
"I want to see what it will take for that merchant's daughter to stop."
"yes."
Seeing this, the servants at the gatehouse dared not stop him. General Weiyuan rushed into the marquis's mansion as if no one was around.
The old Duke's wife said: "Eunuch Ma, if anything happens to my granddaughter, this matter will not be over."
"Old Lord Feng, you are too kind. This is all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."
Ma Fuhai was secretly thinking about how to explain to the emperor later.
General Weiyuan captured a servant and came all the way to Hongmeng Courtyard.
The gate was closed, so he kicked it open without saying anything.
There was a loud bang, startling the birds in the yard and making them fly away...
