Chapter 544: Imitation, Not Acknowledgement
【I also want to keep hope and not give up. 】
【But I just can’t help but let my imagination run wild. 】
[This may be related to my habit of preparing for the worst when things happen. ]
After hearing Jiujiu's thoughts, Dijiang understood that Jiujiu must have heard a lot of comforting words in the past few days, but it was useless. Words are as light as a feather to a certain extent. They cannot change anything, nor can they necessarily comfort people's hearts.
He hugged Jiujiu tightly, hoping that his presence could give Jiujiu some strength and make him brave again.
It turns out that it does work.
After Dijiang held Jiujiu for a long time, Jiujiu cried. After venting the discomfort in her heart, she regained her courage and discussed the war with Dijiang, Yang Bo and others.
【I only allow myself to be vulnerable for a moment.】
[Now it is most important to take down Dongcang. 】
Jiujiu cheered herself up in her heart.
Now that Feng Tianmo is not here, Yang Bo is the head coach. Yang Bo has proposed many feasible ways to take down Dongcang.
Dijiang also agreed and did as Yang Bo said.
Next, Western Chu and Southern Kingdom joined forces to jointly capture the city of Dongcang, and good news kept coming in.
There are a total of 45 cities in Dongcang. After three months of hard work, 15 of them have been captured.
Great victory, great victory!
Finally it’s not so depressing anymore.
The frustration from being ambushed at the beginning was also half gone.
Jiujiu and the others finally felt a little better. Next, as long as they captured all the cities in Dongcang, Dongcang would be completely finished.
.
Western Chu, the imperial city.
The news that Feng Tianmo had disappeared had already spread, but Emperor Qing'an was worried about Princess Xuan's pregnancy, and it was the first few months of pregnancy, so the fetus was unstable, so he suppressed the news and forbade anyone to talk about it. Anyone who disobeyed the order would be executed.
Princess Xuan and Feng Wenjin naturally didn't know that the mother and son had been at home recently, and they were very loving and filial, and their lives were peaceful.
At this moment, Feng Wenjin handed the peeled apple to Princess Xuan and said very sensibly, "Mother, you love apples. Your son peeled an apple for you. Please eat it."
Princess Xuan took the apple and ate it while saying, "Your father used to do all these things."
"Jin'er, tell me honestly, are you imitating Dad to do these things because Dad is not at home?"
Feng Wenjin immediately denied it, "No, who wants to learn to do these things from him? Haha, I don't want to, I am a school of my own."
Princess Xuan questioned: "Really?"
"No, no, mom, please stop talking. I did all this for you and my sister. I am the man of the family and this is what I should do." Feng Wenjin said quite reasonably.
"Well, mother won't say anything more." Princess Xuan didn't care anymore.
At lunch, Feng Wenjin helped Princess Xuan peel shrimps. Although he was clumsy and unfamiliar with the technique, and it took him a long time to peel one, he did not give up or get angry. Instead, he peeled the shrimps calmly. After peeling them, he placed them on the plate in front of Princess Xuan with a smile, and said filially, "Mother, eat shrimps quickly. Don't you like them the most?"
In the past, Feng Tianmo was the one who peeled shrimps. Basically, the shrimps that Princess Xuan ate were all peeled by Feng Tianmo. In Princess Xuan's mansion, even the servants didn't have to help their masters peel shrimps, and Feng Wenjin had never peeled one.
It was Feng Tianmo who was peeling them.
But today, it was Feng Wenjin who was peeling it.
Feng Wenjin seemed to be imitating Feng Tianmo's way of taking care of Princess Xuan, but he did not admit it.
Princess Xuan did not say anything directly, but only said: "This shrimp must have been peeled by Jin'er for mother and sister."
"Yes."
"Our Jin'er is really well behaved. When my sister grows up, I must thank her very much."
"You're welcome." Feng Wenjin didn't care. He helped Princess Xuan pick out the fish bones and let Princess Xuan eat them. He was so thoughtful and filial that Princess Xuan almost suspected that he had been possessed by someone else.
Princess Xuan ate the fish and looked at Feng Wenjin meaningfully.
Feng Wenjin said, "Mother, why are you looking at me? Are you going to say that I am taking care of you and your sister like my father?"
However, Princess Xuan said, "Mother saw that you were missing two teeth, and your speech was always leaking, which was not decent, so she wanted you to go to Princess Dowager Xuan to fix them. She is the best at this. She once helped your father fix his teeth."
"Really?" Feng Wenjin didn't expect that his father also had missing teeth.
However, this tooth was knocked out when he accidentally fell while escaping from the casino.
Where are dad’s teeth? How did they fall out?
It must have been knocked down.
Hahaha.
Feng Wenjin smiled mischievously.
"What are you laughing at?" asked Princess Xuan.
"No, don't worry, mother. I will go to the palace later and ask the Queen Mother Xuan to fix my tooth."
"good."
After the mother and son finished their meal, Xiao Jingwen felt a little tired and went to sleep with the help of the maid.
Feng Wenjin asked someone to prepare a carriage and prepare to enter the palace.
As the carriage was moving along, it suddenly met a person.
This man used to be a captain, and later he became a fireman in the city patrol. He worked in this position for more than ten years without being promoted once. Everyone who knew him despised and hated him, and no one was willing to promote him.
Who is he?
He is Li Yong, and also Xiao Jingwen's ex-husband.
Li Yong was walking on the street and saw the carriage from Prince Xuan's mansion. He thought it was Xiao Jingwen, so he took the initiative to stop it.
He had not been promoted in all these years and was feeling depressed. Fortunately, Prince Xuan was not around now, so he did not have to worry about Prince Xuan and could do whatever he wanted.
At this moment, after the carriage stopped, he said: "Excuse me, are you Princess Xuan? My name is Li Yong, and I have something to tell you." He had to let Xiao Jingwen help him raise the voice.
"Li Yong? Who is that?" Feng Wenjin asked the servant sitting next to him.
At that time, the news of Xiao Jingwen's second marriage to Prince Xuan was a hot topic in the capital. All kinds of rumors were spread. Prince Xuan was worried that Xiao Jingwen would be in a bad mood after hearing about it, and would be criticized by others, so he deliberately suppressed these rumors and did not allow people around him to discuss it. Therefore, Feng Wenjin did not know about Xiao Jingwen's second marriage at all.
He didn't even know Li Yong.
The servant knew something, but didn't dare to say it, for fear of losing his life.
"I don't know." The boy said stiffly.
Hearing this, Feng Wenjin opened the curtains, looked at Li Yong outside, and said, "...Who are you?"
"You don't know me?" Li Yong knew Feng Wenjin.
"What? Are you worthy of being recognized by this prince?" Feng Wenjin said disdainfully.
"Oh, if your mother hadn't remarried, you might have been my son." Li Yong said somewhat madly.
Feng Wenjin: “…”
This guy must have something wrong with his brain.
How did he become his son?
When did his mother remarry?
Talk nonsense.
"Someone, capture this man for me and give him thirty lashes of the cane to stop him from talking nonsense." Feng Wenjin was unhappy when he heard this.
"Prince, please don't, please don't. I am the ex-husband of Princess Xuan. I also know that Prince Xuan has no news in Youlan City. Please don't hit me. I will tell you everything I know!"
