Feng Yan looked into Wei Xingzhen's eyes and said nothing.

In short, today is only their second meeting. He came out with the word "Madam".

"Madam?" Wei Xingzhen asked again.

"Let me down first." Feng Yan said softly.

Wei Xingzhen took a quick photo.

When his feet landed, Feng Yan moved his wrist a little.

Now Xipa has long been unknown where it has fallen, and the phoenix crown she was originally wearing has also fallen in the battle with the tree demon...

She gently patted the crumbs on the shoulder.

There has never been such a miserable time in the past.

"Miss!" The mom who had been hiding in the corner trotted over now. She reached out to wipe her tears, "Fugui has gone back to find the master's wife. Don't be afraid, Miss, let's go and wait, Madam and the others should come in a while-"

"No, this is not a place to stay for a long time." Wei Xingzhen interrupted Xi Jinping at the right time, "It's better to send someone back now and tell her father-in-law and mother-in-law not to come out, so stay at home with peace of mind, and you ladies will leave it to me to take care of you."

The husband didn't react, "Son-in-law... where are you going to take our lady? Is it Wei's mansion?"

"Wei Mansion is even more unsafe now." Wei Xingzhen turned around and looked at Feng Yan, "Madam and I, you can go to Zhenguo Duke's Mansion to avoid it for a while."

Feng Yan nodded casually, and she didn't care where she went.

"It just so happens that I want to ask you something, too." Feng Yan said softly.

...

Many people think that the day Wei Xingzhen went to the Feng family to formally propose marriage was the first time Feng Yan and Wei Xingzhen met.

But it is not.

The first time she saw Wei Xingzhen was in the side hall of Taichu Palace in Chang'an City, when he had not even entered Feng Pavilion.

It was when I was in Chang'an three years ago. One day, the Empress Sun Youwei sent an order to summon Feng Yan to the palace to meet.

Perhaps because of his age, Sun Youwei rarely delayed his time due to naps that day.

Feng Yan entered the side hall of Taichu Palace in the morning and was alone in the afternoon hall. But after waiting for half an hour, he still did not see the palace maid who came to summon her to meet the saint - this really made Feng Yan a little sad.

Because he was able to realize the love, hate, joy and anger of others since childhood, Feng Yan has always avoided going to crowded places.

Once in the crowd, everyone's moods came to her like a wave - this person welcomed and polite in public, the person's secret jealousy and ridicule, the beautiful scenery in front of some people, or the worries and violence behind them...

All of this has become an undercurrent that only Feng Yan can feel. She has to do her best to maintain balance in such a storm.

Whenever this happens, her energy is like water in a broken pot, and it is always exhausted very quickly.

This is the case elsewhere, especially in the palace - the intrigue in the inner court is thousands of times more intense than elsewhere.

Unfortunately, on the eve that day, she was alone in the Lion Garden and was in a night of rain. It was the time to be weak.

In the past, it would be fine if she sat in Taichu Palace for one or two hours. After only half an hour that day, Feng Yan felt almost suffocating and exhausted. When she realized she needed to call for help, she could no longer make a sound.

At that time, Wei Xingzhen stepped into the gate of the side hall.

Under the guidance of the palace servant, he sat about two or three feet behind Feng Yan without looking sideways, and then sat quietly without saying a word.

After this, something wonderful happened.

Those suspicion and fear that surged in the palace... seemed to have lost their weight in an instant.

They still gathered and dispersed in front of Feng Yan's eyes, ups and downs, clearly showing their shapes. However, when all this was slapped at Feng Yan, the huge waves seemed to turn into a breeze blowing from a distance, and could no longer bring her any painful oppression.

This is the first time Feng Yan has encountered such a situation since her birth.

Everything around her became clear and peaceful, except for Wei Xingzhen, who could not sense Wei Xingzhen's existence. This person was like a hazy fog, separating her from the chaotic and noisy world.

The two of them didn't talk to each other, and just stayed silently and spent a silent time together.

At the beginning of Shen Shichu, a palace servant finally appeared and called Feng Yan to the main hall to meet him at the door.

Feng Yan stood up and pretended to take a glance behind him inadvertently, but happened to run into Wei Xingzhen's gaze looking at him.

That gaze will never be forgotten by Feng Yan.

His eyes were filled with unconcealed deep friendship, both joy and sorrow, like a close friend who had been reunited for a long time, and like a lover who was enduring separation.

At that moment, the eyes were so complicated that Feng Yan was stunned for a moment.

Wei Xingzhen almost immediately looked elsewhere, as if nothing had happened.

As soon as he looked elsewhere, Feng Yan looked at him a few more unscrupulously, and then wrote down the patches on Wei Xingzhen's ward.

That night, Feng Yan borrowed the official uniform album of the Ministry of Rites. She searched her patterns one by one, and finally stopped at the "Wenyuan Pavilion School Manager".

Crafting, also known as proofreading, is a civil service in Wenyuan Pavilion responsible for proofreading manuscripts. Its official rank is very low, but because of its position, it often comes into contact with precious manuscripts that outsiders rarely have the opportunity to touch.

Feng Yan originally wanted to find an opportunity to find out the origin of the school manager, but shortly after that, Xiaoqi, who had a major change in temperament because he fell into the mountain stream, was ordered to be banned by his father when he was fighting with his assistant teacher in the Imperial Academy. Feng Yan accompanied her sister who was greatly wronged day and night, so she temporarily put the matter on hold.

In the blink of an eye, a few years have passed.

Last spring, a letter of employment was sent to Feng's mansion. Wei Xingzhen, the new chief assistant of Fengge, asked to marry Feng Yan, the eldest daughter of Feng's family.

Over the years, there have been a constant stream of men who come to marry Feng Yan, but most of them are concubines of high families. It is clear that they have to use the life of the concubine's son to exchange for their in-laws with the Feng family.

It is said that the first husband of the Feng family's daughter is used to exchange for life, so there is no need to be too particular about whether it is good or bad. But after all, the son-in-law who was hired to live in the Feng family for several years, so Li still values ​​his fate. Unfortunately, she looked down on any of the concubines who came to the house to marry in recent years.

As for the first time, Wei Xingzhen, who holds important positions, he is the first in recent years. However, neither Feng Yan's father nor mother took this person seriously.

Although Feng Yan has never cared about her marriage, she still asked why when she saw her parents being so cold.

Li explained, "This man came from a bad person. He used to be a prosecutor at Sitiantai. Later, he went to Wenyuan Pavilion as a school manager. He also relied on the crooked sayings of "Luodu Wuying" to attract the attention of His Majesty. Then he rose to the top of the list of Feng Pavilion. The key is that he was from a poor family. No matter how poor our family is, it is impossible for you to marry such a family."

The words "Wenyuan Pavilion School Manager" are like a bell, instantly reminding Feng Yan of a quick glance in Taichu Palace a few years ago.

However, before the Feng Mansion could answer the matter, Feng Yan and several women of the age in the city suddenly fell into a bizarre sleep at the same time. The Feng Mansion tried hard to find the reason why Feng Yan suddenly couldn't wake up.

Fortunately, a month later, Feng Yan woke up again in weakness and everything returned to her original state, but her previous marriage was delayed again with her rest.

At the beginning of this year, Wei Xingzhen stopped Feng Yuanzhang on the way to the court again and proposed to marry Feng Yan again.

Since the last strange illness, Feng’s father and mother have been wondering whether this is related to the curse on the Feng family’s daughter. However, after Wei Xingzhen mentioned the marriage again, the two elders were still hesitant - after all, this person is the chief assistant of Fengge, and he really wants to become a son-in-law, so it is not easy for him to marry into a family, but they are worried about letting Feng Yan marry to an outsider’s mansion.

Feng Yan, who has always been indifferent to foreign affairs, spoke for the first time and asked her if her father could invite Mr. Wei to come to her home to tell her what kind of person she was.

That night, Feng Yan sat behind the screen and listened to the whole family dinner.

Although he couldn't see his face clearly, when Wei Xingzhen walked into the room, Feng Yan felt the long-lost tranquility again.

——The curiosity of the servants, the arrogance and hesitation of the mother, the friendship of the father as tentatively... all kinds of chaotic thoughts and emotions seemed to be separated from her by a layer of white mist, and no longer as noisy as before.

Feng Yan stared at Wei Xingzhen's back, as if a voice confirmed in his heart with relief:
Chapter completed!
