It was pitch black all around, and the wind blew through the branches slightly, making a rustling sound. Apart from that, there was no other sound. The cicada forest was more quiet, the bird singing mountain was even more secluded, and the sound of the branches made the surrounding sound more peaceful, even
Somewhat scary.
A woman stood in the night sky, smiling charmingly at the moonlight.
"What is so happy about?" a voice sounded, followed by a woman wearing a veil.
"Meet a beautiful man." Fan Xiaoyang turned around and walked toward the house along the bluestone floor in the yard.
"Beautiful man?" The woman raised her eyebrows, "You are really a nymphomaniac."
The woman followed Fan Xiaoyang into the house with a look of disdain.
"Girl, I haven't seen anything before! This time is really different. I have never seen such a handsome man." Fan Xiaoyang sat on the chair and held his cheek. Baili Feng's beautiful face appeared in his mind.
Face intoxicated.
"Tch—" the woman snorted disdainfully.
"Cut whatever you want!" Fan Xiaoyang slapped the table dissatisfied, "Don't you love Baili Haoyu to death? The man I met is much more handsome than Baili Haoyu."
"..."
The woman was silent. She lowered her head and fell into deep thought. Her eyes were a little wandering, and her beautiful eyes dimmed.
She did not speak, and Fan Xiaoyang was not in a hurry. She picked up a pot of wine from the side and poured herself a glass. The wine gurgled along the edge of the cup and flowed into the cup.
She looked at the transparent liquid and her eyes became even more confused. She picked up a glass of wine, took a sip, and narrowed her dark eyes lazily.
"Good wine..."
She sighed softly, her words full of flattery.
"I asked you to come here to participate in Murong Peilan's wife selection, don't forget." The woman looked at Fan Xiaoyang and said coldly.
"So what if I beat all the girls and choose the one? The wife the Murong family wants to choose is an innocent girl. I can pretend to be innocent at ordinary times, but what about the wedding night? Is it possible that when the civet cat changes to the prince, what will happen?
Queen, will you come and take my place?" Fan Xiaoyang looked at the wine glass with a smile, smiling with interest.
The woman's face suddenly turned pale, as if she had been stabbed in a painful spot. She suddenly stood up from the chair and glared at Fan Xiaoyang fiercely. Her eyes were filled with anger, as if she wanted to eat Fan Xiaoyang alive.
"What? Are you angry because I was right?" Fan Xiaoyang raised his eyebrows.
Duanmu Ailin, the rich daughter of the Duanmu family, was aloof and favored by thousands of people. She lacked nothing and had a lot of everything. Her admirers were like crucian carp crossing the river. She was canonized as a queen at the age of sixteen. Today, the Holy Lord and
She treated everyone with respect, and had no concubines except her, the queen. Even though she had nothing to do for seven years, ministers wrote to the emperor one after another asking him to accept a concubine, but the emperor rejected it. Every woman in the world envied this queen, but who would have thought that she would have a concubine?
The Holy One has never touched her!
Duanmu Ailin closed her eyes and let out a long sigh:
"If that day comes, I will go to the bridal chamber for you, and then you can defeat those women with all your heart and become Mrs. Murong."
"ah?"
Fan Xiaoyang was stunned. She looked at Duanmu Ailin in disbelief. What did she say? Go to the bridal chamber for her? She is a high-ranking queen...
"He's not interested in me anyway. It would be nice if I could do something for him."
Duanmu Ailin said lightly. The Murong family is the number one family in the world. Its status is one of the best in the world. Its power cannot be underestimated. It is the target of various countries vying to win over. This time Murong Peilan publicly selected his wife, let alone the noble family.
After becoming a girl, Dongyi and Western Qin even sent their princesses to participate in the election. Under the suppression of Nangong Yufei, not many of the Baili Empire royal family survived. The only princess, Baili Shan, was already married, and Baili Pingting was also married.
There are many beauties among the wives of other people, and among the wealthy families in the court, there are few who can take on such an important task.
Murong Peilan was originally a talented man, so the wife he chose must be proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and have a good command of poetry, poetry, and poetry. And the Murong family was a well-known man in the world. It was not enough to just be talented in literature. She also had to be proficient in martial arts, and more importantly, this
People must be members of the emperor's party.
Although Baili Feng replaced Nangong Yufei, the biggest opposition force, for the Baili Empire seven years ago, power struggles have never disappeared since ancient times, and the DPRK and China are still fighting openly and secretly. Baili Haoyu needs to win over the Murong family through marriage.
Women must come from the Emperor's Party, and looking at the daughters of high officials in the DPRK, only Fan Xiaoyang meets the requirements.
Fan Xiaoyang is good at everything. The only shortcoming is that she is bohemian. She does not pay attention to the three obediences and four virtues and Confucian etiquette like other women. In her opinion, there are only men in this world that she likes and dislikes, and she does not like them.
She won't take a second look at the ones she likes, but she will spend the night with those she likes...
She was no longer a virgin, but this was not a problem. The moment she found Fan Xiaoyang, Duanmu Ailin already had a countermeasure.
"Hey - are you so stupid?"
Fan Xiaoyang admired Duanmu Ailin at first. She admired her vigorous and resolute attitude, and even more admired her first-class Qinggong skills in heaven and earth. In her early years, when she secretly traveled around the world, she had heard of the reputation of the master thief Duanmu Feiyan, and she even respected her as
Her idol, she did not expect that the famous thief would be the current queen, nor did she expect that she was not cool at all, not smart at all, and would risk everything for a man.
"This is my business, just do as I say." Duanmu Ailin said.
"Whatever, anyway, you said Murong Peilan is a handsome man. If you can capture his heart and get the title of Mrs. Murong, it would be fun..."
Fan Xiaoyang shrugged. She has no pursuit of marriage. To her, marrying or not marrying is not a big deal. But if she can help her friends, she will marry. As long as Murong Peilan doesn't look too good to disappoint her.
That's it. Thinking of this, she suddenly paused, looked at Duanmu Ailin with great vigilance, and said:
"You didn't lie to me, right? I don't want to have to face an ugly person for the rest of my life."
Her question made Duanmu Ailin roll her eyes speechlessly:
"Don't worry, Murong Peilan will definitely satisfy you with her appearance."
"Oh? Really? Have you ever met Murong Peilan in person? I have very high standards! People say that today he is handsome and handsome, but in my eyes he is just ordinary..." Fan Xiaoyang was very interested.
He looked at Duanmu Ailin.
"Don't worry, he will definitely be a handsome man in your eyes." Duanmu Ailin said lightly.
"Really?" Fan Xiaoyang raised his eyebrows, looked at Duanmu Ailin with interest, squinted his eyes and smiled, "So you think Murong Peilan is more beautiful than the emperor? In that case, why are you still guarding Bai Bai?
Li Haoyu?"
Fan Xiaoyang blinked at Duanmu Ailin evilly, there was something in his words, but Duanmu Ailin just pretended not to hear, she walked to the window and opened it.
Outside the window, a gust of cold wind blew in, blowing her hair and blowing off the veil on her face, revealing a world-famous face. Her eyebrows were picturesque, smoke was like stars, her nose was pretty, her lips were small, and the blowing
Elastic and breakable skin is beautiful no matter how you look at it...
However, there was sadness on her face, making her whole face look lifeless.
She stared at the moon in the sky for a long time, her thoughts seeming to drift far away. Fan Xiaoyang didn't bother to guess what she was thinking, so he sat on a chair and tasted wine elegantly.
Duanmu Ailin turned her head and saw her drinking, and frowned involuntarily:
"Stop drinking. Murong Peilan doesn't like women drinking. If you do this, you won't be able to choose."
"Murong Peilan doesn't like women to drink? How come I haven't heard of it?" Fan Xiaoyang looked at Duanmu Ailin in confusion, and suddenly smiled evilly, "How come the Queen knows so much about Murong Peilan? Could it be..."
"Don't make random guesses. I just asked someone to investigate." Duanmu Ailin frowned and interrupted Fan Xiaoyang, "It's already early and I have to leave. Remember to rest early and drink less. It's good for your health.
not good."
After she finished speaking, she put on her mask again, turned around and walked outside the house.
"Thank you, Queen, for your concern. I am very grateful to you!" Fan Xiaoyang playfully stuck out his tongue behind her.
Duanmu Ailin paused slightly.
The queen?
What an ironic title!
Is there any queen from ancient times to the present who has been married for seven years and still remained a virgin like her?
Duanmu Ailin's heart stung again and again. She closed her eyes, and Baili Haoyu's face appeared in her mind. She thought of their first meeting, their first cooperation, their marriage, and their wedding.
What he said at night.
"Aileen, I know you don't want to marry me, but you have to marry me due to political needs. I'm sorry for you, but don't worry, I won't force you. From now on, you and I will treat each other as guests. If you want
Go, if you just say a word, I will send someone to take you away..."
This was what he said, and she was very moved at the time. But how did he know that she was unwilling to marry him? No one in this world could ever force her to do something she didn't want to do!
He must know this! He may think that she married him because of friendship and loyalty as a friend, so that the Duanmu family could completely become the emperor's party...
But Baili Haoyu, do you know that there is no pure friendship between men and women! No woman will sacrifice her life for a man for the sake of friendship...
Baili Haoyu, do you think I risked my life and sneaked into Beigong Huangfei's base camp because of friendship?
You really think of me so great!
If friendship really exists between men and women, then why is it not friendship between you and Yi Jiangxue? Why do you fall in love with her instead of treating her as a friend?
Yi Jiangxue...
Duanmu Ailin felt even more uncomfortable when she thought of these three words!
In the past seven years, this person has tortured her all the time. Although they have not met in these seven years, he has always been between her and Baili Haoyu.
