The settlement of Wen's case indeed caused a commotion in the imperial city. As the supreme emperor, Dongling Yuanyong took over the blame for the late emperor and did not shy away from admitting his fault to the people with the dignity of an emperor... He
The frank and open "mistakes" not only did not make the people dissatisfied, but instead gathered people's hearts!
As far as Wen Gongyin is concerned, she should be relieved now that the family feud has been settled.
However, she found that she felt empty in her heart, especially since she was the only one left in the palace at this time, she felt even more lonely!
After Xiahou Chunyan received a letter from Ximen Yourong a few days ago, he took people to Yizhou almost immediately.
As a result, as soon as Xiahou Chunyan stepped forward, Xiahou Yiyun, who was almost in good health, also followed behind!
That's why she faced all kinds of loneliness alone in Ruoda's palace!
However, to her great surprise, someone came to break her loneliness, because Wu Jiayi came to the palace to look for her, and she let him in.
However, from a distance, she looked from the palace gate and saw that Wu Jiayi was not coming alone. He was also holding a child.
Just when Wen Jingyin was puzzled, Wu Jiayi, holding the child, had already arrived in front of her.
Wen Jingyin saw him put the girl, who looked to be only about two or three years old, on the ground and let her stand up by herself.
At first, Wen Junyin didn't see the child's front face. When the child's unsteady little body turned to her out of curiosity, she was stunned for a moment...but the next moment, she opened her eyes wide and slowly...
Slowly stood up, and then walked slowly and slowly towards the child, as if he was afraid of scaring the child away...!
Her trembling hand touched the child's pink and fleshy face, and her face was full of disbelief:
"Mo... Mo'er?" This is her eldest brother's little daughter ~ Wen Mo Nong!
When the Wen family went through the catastrophe, Mo Nong was less than two years old, and now she is almost three years old.
However, Mo Nong no longer remembered that Wen Jingyin was her aunt. She only regarded Wen Jingyin as a stranger. Therefore, she stepped back and approached Wu Jiayi, hid behind him and grabbed the hem of his clothes, which showed that she was not only very familiar with Wu Jiayi
, still very dependent!
After Wen Yingyin was shocked, she looked at Wu Jiayi with eyes moist with excitement and asked in confusion:
"What's going on? How is Mo Nong still alive...?"
"I saved her!"
"Why?"
She knew that he saved Mo Nong without asking, but she didn't understand why he saved her?
"Back then, the late Emperor personally issued an order to kill all the families on the list overnight. You, the Wen family, happened to be the task assigned to me... At that time, although I had doubts about your Wen family being on the list, I tried to
I asked the late emperor to review the list, but..."
Wu Jiayi's words stopped here. He suddenly didn't know what the meaning of explaining these was.
Thinking about it, it really didn't make sense anymore. Wu Jiayi turned to simply say:
"I secretly rescued this child. I originally planned to let her grow up anonymously and safely. Since she still has you as a close relative, I will hand her back to you!"
Wu Jiayi knelt down and gently clasped Mo Nong's body and said to her with a smile:
"Mo Nong, this is your aunt, you will follow your aunt from now on, okay?"
Mo Nong seemed to understand. She looked at Wu Jiayi, then at Wen Gunny. In the end, she chose to stick close to Wu Jiayi and refused to let go.
Seeing her niece relying so much on Wu Jiayi, Wen Jingyin didn't know whether to be grateful or sarcastic.
She thought that the feud between her and Wu Jiayi was over. How could she imagine that he was the one who was cruel to Wen, and he was also the one who was kind!
But no matter what, it was a gift to her that Mo Nong was still alive! But because of this, she had to ask Wu Jiayi questions clearly!
After she asked her servants to coax Mo Nong out and take her out, Wen Gongyin looked at Wu Jiayi and asked directly:
"My attendant said that he saw with his own eyes that before you killed my eldest brother and sister-in-law, you tried to get my sister-in-law to go with you. You wanted to get my sister-in-law. Is this true?"
This was what initially led her to believe that he was ruthless in order to get her sister-in-law. But now it seems that that may not be the case at all!
Wu Jiayi's face was expressionless, and Wen's gurgling inquiry brought his memory back to that night...
He had indeed been infatuated with Wen Yingyin's sister-in-law, and he had indeed hated his elder brother for marrying the woman he liked.
But that was only when her eldest brother and sister-in-law were getting married. Six or seven years later, even if he still had the memory of his past admiration for her eldest sister-in-law, he would not take the opportunity to despicably get a woman who had no interest in him!
However, it was true that he asked Wen's eldest daughter-in-law to go with him that night, but he just wanted to save her!
But before that, it might be because her other two children had already died in random arrows, and he had injured her beloved husband, or she mistakenly thought that he still wanted her, so she refused with curses.
His proposal….
But now it is impossible to explain clearly the chaotic situation at that time. Even if he could explain it clearly, in the face of hundreds of lives in the Wen family, his explanation may show that he did not kill maliciously, but it does not mean that he has a clear conscience!
Therefore, he did not explain anything to Wen Gongyin in detail, but only said:
"It's true that I had a deep-seated admiration for your sister-in-law, but I have long accepted the fact that she has no interest in me. I don't want to explain anything about what happened that day. If you feel that you are not satisfied with the result now, my life
You can take it anytime!”
After Wu Jiayi finished speaking, he glanced at Wen Ginger, who had a mixed expression on his face, then turned around and wanted to leave.
"Wait a minute..." Wen Gongyin called him, and when he turned around, she asked: "Have you been taking care of Mo Nong?"
Wu Jiayi guessed that she asked this question because she saw Mo Nong's dependence on him. He replied to her without hiding anything:
"When the Wen family was destroyed, I didn't know that my father had done such a thing. Saving Mo Nong at that time was just a sudden outburst of intolerance... Then when I knew that the Wen family was framed by my father, although I felt
It’s shameful and painful, but I still choose to remain silent. On the contrary, I will repay all my guilt and debt to your Wen family on Mo Nong..."
Originally, he fostered Mo Nong in a scholarly family outside the city, but later he chose to raise Mo Nong himself, so he took Mo Nong to his own home.
During this period, whenever he was free, he would visit Mo Nong. Over time, Mo Nong became familiar with him, and he secretly regarded raising Mo Nong as his responsibility. He even thought about it, when Mo Nong grows up in the future,
If necessary, he will tell Mo Nong that he killed her parents!
I don't know if she felt that she had no more hatred to hate, but Wen Junyin's view of Wu Jiayi suddenly became confused, as if the things she thought could disappear could no longer disappear.
But what was embarrassing and helpless was that her complicated emotions could only be hidden deep in her heart.
At the same time, Wen Jingyin's inner sadness suddenly made her sober. She sighed silently, then looked at Wu Jiayi and said impartially:
"All my relatives died at your hands, and I may never stop hating you for this! But you saved Mo Nong, and I am willing to sincerely say thank you to you! At this point... there is no need for you and me to interact with each other anymore!"
Wen Yunyin turned sideways and looked away at Wu Jiayi. He knew that she meant that all the grudges between them were over, but that was all!
Wu Jiayi had no regrets about this. He and Wen Yuyin had nothing but hatred.
So, he turned around and left without saying anything... He didn't know that his leaving figure was deeply reflected in a pair of eyes filled with obsession and pain...!
The Imperial City has really stabilized, at least it seems so! But the disaster in Yizhou is not over yet, so it will also affect the small meridians of the Imperial City...!
As the night darkens, all the palaces in the palace light up lights as usual, making the palace look more charming under the night sky.
However, when it was time to rest, the lights everywhere were extinguished. As the second half of the night approached, except for the patrolling imperial guards, everything in the palace was quiet, as if there was no extra breath!
Only the Xiangyun Palace looked strange because a ghost-like black shadow broke through the calm air.
However, this strangeness did not cause any disturbance. Following a vague sound, the dark figure that had entered the room silently walked towards the person sitting in front of the makeup mirror.
Through the dim moonlight, you can still clearly see that the person sitting in front of the makeup mirror is You Kouyi!
Although the footsteps of the black shadow behind her were silent, You Kouyi still knew clearly that the person she was waiting for was coming.
Slowly getting up and facing the visitor, You Kouyi didn't make a sound. She just walked forward and leaned into his arms gently, and then whispered:
"night……!"
The Night King tensed up because of You Kouyi's close approach, but the familiar smell quickly made him relax, and his strong hands naturally wrapped around her waist.
"What’s wrong with you?"
He didn't understand why she was willing to get close to him again? He thought that since the last meeting, he only had a relationship of use to her!
"I miss you!"
You Kouyi suddenly expressed her feelings! However, this is not a lie, she does miss him!
Because only his embrace is the purest, she can have his feelings with peace of mind, and she can get all his efforts from him without any scruples!
The Night King gently pushed her body away and looked at her face. Even if it was not bright enough for him to see the expression on her face clearly, he could feel that the affection she showed at this moment was real.
A heart that had never stopped loving Youkoyi was throbbing unbearably because of the true love she revealed. The Night King lowered his head to explore his familiar soft lips...!
You Kouyi did not refuse, she opened her lips passionately to welcome his request... When the love was so intense, the Night King thought it was enough to stop, but when he gasped and tried to stop his rising desire in time, those eyes
He would never let him ask for the last lip, but it followed him the moment he was about to leave...
"Kouyi, you...?" Couldn't she give her body to him?
"Ye, love me...!"
For the first time, You Kouyi made an invitation. Although the Night King didn't know why she suddenly made such a request, her invitation undoubtedly indulged his desire...
But when he really had her, he was shocked! You Kouyi was also shocked at the moment when they merged with each other, but she still continued to tolerate the love given by the Night King!
However, You Kouyi's indulgence contains both satisfaction and anger...!
