Phoenix Shadow Coming From the Sky: Eight, My heart is a lesson 4
The brothers had lunch in Feng Mansion that day, and then they took their leave and left. Before leaving, they all solemnly told Feng Duying, "Go to Big Brother's place early, he is terribly worried, and he is even more angry."
After the brothers left, Feng Duying took a nap for a while before entering the palace. When he arrived at the imperial palace, he went straight to the Qilong Palace to find the east to start repairing, but was told that his majesty had gone to the Fengfei Palace. Feng Duying thought for a while, then turned to the Royal Garden for a stroll, after about half an hour, guessing that the palace servants must have reported to Dong Shixiu, and they should have returned from Fengfei Palace, and then went to the habitat He went to the Dragon Palace, but was told that His Majesty had transferred to Concubine Xie Palace on the way. This time, General Fengying didn't wait any longer, and went straight back to his Fengying Palace.
After traveling for many days, I finally returned to the imperial capital today. I was a little tired, and I didn't take a long nap, so I fell asleep after returning to the palace.
I don't know how long I slept, but in the dimness, I only felt that someone shook her shoulder lightly, and then came the soft voice of the maid: "Wake up, general, Your Majesty is coming."
Feng Duying opened his eyes in a daze.
Seeing her opening her eyes, the maid hurriedly said: "General, Your Majesty has come down and is waiting in the front hall."
Feng Duying heard it clearly, but turned around and fell asleep again.
Seeing this, the palace lady reached out her hand to shake her again, "General, Your Majesty is here to see you, and he is waiting in the front hall. Get up quickly to meet you."
But Feng Duying just didn't move, making the little palace lady want to cry.
"Okay, you can step back." Suddenly a voice came from behind, the little maid turned her head and saw Dong Shixiu standing at the door of the bedroom, hurriedly stood up and saluted, and then quietly retreated.
Dong Shixiu walked into the hall, found a chair and sat down on his own, while Feng Duying on the bed was lying on his side with his eyes closed, peacefully and soundly asleep.
The bedroom is quiet, and the hourglass is gurgling.
For a long time, Dong Shixiu sat upright until his back hurt, but the person on the bed didn't turn around at all. He sighed, "Okay, I know you're awake, so get up."
The wind alone does not move.
Dong Shixiu then softened his voice again, "It's been almost a month since you were injured and disappeared. Brother is worried to death. As soon as you came back, you put the back of your head on me."
After hearing this, Feng Duying finally got up, turned around and looked at Dong Shixiu and said, "Brother is busy."
From her handsome face to her indifferent expression and tone, it is absolutely impossible to tell, and absolutely no one dares to say that she is acting like a baby, but in my conscience, the calm and majestic General Fengying is indeed attacking her at this moment. Big brother is playing petty temper.
Dong Shixiu laughed when he heard that.
Her injury and disappearance made him worry day and night. When he found out that she was hanging high in Peicheng, his heart was half relieved, but his anger came up again, because she went out to sea to chase the enemy regardless of her safety. When he heard the news of General Fengying's return early this morning, he just let go of his heart, so he waited in the palace, thinking that he, the eldest brother, would be the first person she would see when she came back. As a result, I waited and waited, one moment passed, another moment passed, and an hour passed. I waited until noon, but no one was waiting. I was waiting to get angry, and it happened that Concubine Feng ordered someone to invite him to the palace for dinner, so he flung his sleeves and went to Concubine Feng's palace.
During the meal, Concubine Feng saw that he was not hesitant and asked the palace servants quietly, and when she learned the reason, she explained to him, "General Feng must be tired after traveling for days, you should take a rest to breathe slowly". Hearing that it made sense after thinking about it, he felt relieved. After finishing his meal, he left Fengfei Palace, bumped into someone sent by Concubine Xie on the way, said that the "five-color hibiscus" in the palace had bloomed, and invited him to enjoy the flowers, so he turned to Concubine Xie's palace. When he arrived at the gate of Concubine Xie's palace, someone from the palace chased after him and reported that "the general has entered the palace". He looked at Concubine Xie and the second emperor's son Dong Tiancong who were waiting in front of the palace gate. They hadn't seen each other for several months since the expedition , can never pass through the door.
When he came out from Concubine Xie's Palace, it was also expected that his seventh sister would not obediently wait in Qilong Palace, so she went directly to Fengying Palace.
Ah, maybe when her brother saved him and caused her to lose her own brother, he already owed her. In this life, this younger sister is more important to him than anyone else in this world, but his eldest brother is only one of the seven closest people to her.
He can't be harsh on her, nor can he force her, he can only continue to be her big brother like a father and a brother. Guard her, protect her, and love her until the white hair and teeth are shaking.
So he stood up, showing a brother's loving smile, "Come here, let big brother see your injury."
Feng Duying got off the bed, walked up to Dong Shixiu, pointed to his head, and said, "The scar has been removed early, it's all over."
Dong Shixiu parted her hair and saw a two-inch-long pink scar half an inch behind her temple. up.
"It's all right." Feng Duying could see it naturally, she didn't want to see her brother showing such an expression, she took two steps back and moved her head away, "I heard that my elder brother took Princess Xuanji as soon as I came back, what's going on? What's the matter?" There was a hint of reproach in his tone.
"Fourth brother doesn't need to marry the princess, so why not let me accept her." Dong Shixiu said lightly.
Feng Duying looked up at Dong Shixiu.
"Fenghuang'er, you understand what elder brother means." Dong Shixiu smiled, his expression was quite relaxed, but his heart was a little bitter, "When the court is up tomorrow, elder brother will announce your marriage with fourth younger brother."
Feng Duying was startled, it should have been joyful and joyful, but bitterness and sadness rushed into his chest at the same moment, looking at Dong Shixiu for a while, he was speechless.
"What's the matter?" Dong Shixiu couldn't help being surprised when he saw that she didn't look happy, "Could it be that Fenghuang'er doesn't like your fourth brother?"
Feng Duying shook his head, originally wanted to talk about Qu Shang, but remembering how much his elder brother loved her, he was afraid that he would do something to the Qu family because of her marriage with the fourth elder brother, so he just said: "Eldest brother , now is not the time, wait a little longer."
"Still waiting?" Dong Shixiu raised his thick eyebrows, "Now you and the fourth brother are left to waste time, don't we have to wait until our brothers have grandchildren?"
Feng Duying's heart feels like a needle prick, but it is impossible to marry Fengji at this time. "Brother's love for me, I naturally know. It's just this matter, please take it easy."
"Why delay?" Dong Shixiu was puzzled.
Seventh sister and fourth brother have been in love for many years. After all these years, neither of them has any interest in other men and women, and they are still unmarried. The reason is not difficult to guess. But now that he was finally able to let go, why did Seventh Sister slow down? They didn't care about delaying it overnight, but he didn't know if he would regret it.
"Although you and your fourth brother are affectionate, the names of siblings are well known in the world. Even if you have the elder brother's will, you will be slandered by the world. Now the triumphant conquest of the North Sea is celebrating the joy of the whole country. You are also the greatest contributor to the Northern Expedition. , just take advantage of this golden opportunity to announce the marriage, and add joy to happiness, which can turn the blame of the world."
Feng Duying doesn't know that his brother has good intentions, how can he not know that this opportunity is lost, or there is no hope in this life. She turned around, raised her head, and suppressed the sourness in her eyes, "Brother, I have died once this time, so I have to think about some things carefully, so I ask you to delay for a month. I will tell you in a month." , Do I want to marry fourth brother?" One month is enough for fourth brother to think clearly, even if he wants to find Qu Shang and bring her to the imperial capital, that is enough time.
"You!" Dong Shixiu got angry, and turned to Feng Duying before he wanted to speak, but his eyes touched her face, and his heart ached, "Fenghuang'er, did something happen? "
"No." Feng Duying walked out of the dormitory, and the autumn sun was pouring down on the fragrant trees in the garden, making the green greener and the red redder, extraordinarily dazzling. Standing in front of the porch, she looked at the white hibiscus tree in the courtyard, and thought of Qu Shang who had the hairpin hibiscus as beautiful as the autumn moon, and her last sentence, "No matter which woman he likes in the future, he will never forget it in his whole life." I", my heart was like soaking in ice water.
"Phoenix!" Dong Shixiu followed closely behind.
"Brother, promise me." Feng Duying turned and looked at Dong Shixiu.
Dong Shi repaired a meal. Feng Duying, who had a slightly desolate expression just now, now his eyes seemed to be condensed with ice, and his snow-white face was almost ruthless. Looking into her eyes, he only nodded in agreement. Although he is the emperor of the world, she can make him obey everything.
"I will tell my elder brother about the matter between me and my fourth brother in one month. But if I don't say anything after one month, then my elder brother doesn't have to worry about it anymore." Feng Duying's voice was like that of a cold pool The water, clear and cold. She, Feng Duying, would rather be alone and suffer for a lifetime than marry a man who is guilty all his life and will always remember another woman in his heart.
Dong Shixiu stretched out his hand, and gently brushed the hair on her forehead that was moved by the wind and covered her clear pupils, "Brother, I promise you."
Later that day, Dong Shixiu asked about her being injured and rescued. Feng Duying only briefly replied that she was rescued by fishermen, and then she recuperated there.
Dinner that day was used by the two at Fengying Palace, and Dong Shixiu sat until Youshi before leaving.
At that time, the seven brothers were all happy, because the Northern Expedition returned triumphantly, because the younger sister returned safely, and there was no major event in the court, everything was peaceful and safe.
