After the hero goes crazy

Chapter 365

Tonight, the gatekeeper of Yao's house was not Liang Cai, but an elderly handyman temporarily hired by the Liu family to help after the disaster.

He was not interested in the hustle and bustle of the sacrifice, so he deliberately stayed behind to guard the house.

The old man was not very familiar with the master of Yao's family. He was wearing his clothes and stood there in embarrassing silence. He secretly stared at Shizi with timid eyes, not daring to make a sound.

Even though Lu Zhi wanted to say a lot to Yao Shouning, he could only swallow it under the prying eyes of others.

"Don't think too much." He comforted dryly:
"Change into dry clothes first, see if your sister is at home, and explain this to her clearly."

After finishing speaking, he added:
"After I go back, I will also look up what happened to 'him' back then. If there is any news, I will let you know as soon as possible."

Yao Shouning nodded with a strong smile, and told him:

"you should also rest earlier."

Lu Zhi responded, sat back on the carriage, and looked back at her again.

Seeing the dim light behind her, the girl's figure was stretched extremely long, surrounded by the door frame, looking a little lonely.

He loves her and wants to coax her and accompany her, but now he can't do anything, he can only drive away disappointed.

After Yao Shouning watched the prince leave, he took a deep breath, turned around and walked to his room.

Yao's house is a bit deserted tonight, everyone went to the south of the city to play, but they haven't come back yet.

If it was before, Yao Shouning would not be used to this kind of tranquility, but now she has begun to enjoy such tranquility.

Before going home, she was very anxious, anxious to see her sister, and wanted to ask Yao Wanning about her pregnancy.

But she met Wen Jingsui halfway, and after explaining some things clearly to him, she gave her great courage and allowed her to calm down her mood and stop being irritable and unbearable.

At this time, the closer she was to the room, the calmer she became. When standing at the door of her room, she stood still for a moment, then pushed the door open.

In the sound of 'creaking', the lights in the room leaked out like water.

Behind the screen in the inner room of the house, Yao Wanning heard the sound, stuck her head out and shouted:
"Shouning?"

She let down her hair and took off her coat. While speaking, she had already taken off the clothes on the screen and hugged her tightly in her arms.

"Ah."

Yao Shouning responded, she breathed a sigh of relief, quickly put on her coat, and walked out from behind the screen:

"Why come back so early..."

Yao Wanning was all smiles, but when her eyes fell on Yao Shouning, her voice stopped abruptly.

At this moment, Yao Shouning was drenched all over, with sand on his feet and the hem of his skirt, looking extremely embarrassed.

The night wind blew across her body, bringing in bursts of cold air - mixed with the cold wind from the Bailing River, Yao Wanning subconsciously covered her arms.

The two sisters looked at each other from a distance of two or three feet, and Yao Wanning seemed to be nailed to the spot.

Yao Shouning's gaze fell on her. She was wearing a corseted dress that she hadn't taken off yet, and a thick top.

Perhaps it was because of Yao Shouning's sudden return, her clothes were disheveled and she looked more relaxed than usual.

She is as thin as a willow, and the subtle bulge of her belly is particularly eye-catching.

When Yao Shouning saw the family letter to the 'River God' by the river, he was already shocked, but when he witnessed this scene with his own eyes, he felt his eyes burning and his heart sore.

"..."

Yao Wanning moved her lips, she wanted to say something, but all the strength in her body was drained at this moment.

She could sense her younger sister's gaze on her belly, and the secret she had kept hidden for a long time was finally exposed at this moment. She was a little panicked, a little bit at a loss, and wanted to escape, but under Yao Shouning's gaze, she couldn't live at all. No strength to move.

The two sisters looked at each other, and after a long time, their eyes gradually became wet.

Who knows who was the first to sob softly, breaking the silence of the room, Yao Shouning took a deep breath, and walked slowly towards his sister.

The truth has been revealed, and the fog that blocked her eyes has dissipated.

The shadow of 'River God' stood silently behind Yao Shouning, and on 'his' shoulder sat a shadow of a baby. At this time, a pair of chubby little hands were clasped together, and he looked at Yao Shouning curiously with his head tilted, and let out a 'huh' Yeah' sound.

"...you found out?"

Yao Wanning opened her mouth with difficulty, and subconsciously stretched out her hand to cover her stomach.

"Yeah." Yao Shouning nodded and responded softly.

As soon as her words fell, Yao Wanning suddenly lost all her strength, and her body shook twice. Fortunately, Yao Shouning strode forward and hugged her sister in her arms.

"I didn't mean to hide it from you..." Yao Wanning burst into tears and opened her mouth, feeling so ashamed in her heart that she didn't dare to look into her sister's eyes:

"I just, just don't know what to tell you."

In reality, the young girl who was just sick married the 'River God' in her dream, had an affair, and became pregnant. If these things spread, it would definitely tarnish the Yao family's reputation.

"I do not blame you."

Yao Shouning lovingly touched his sister's face, seeing her face turned blue from fright, and her body trembling, he choked up and said:

"I just feel sorry for you."

Yao Wanning was already thin, but now she was lying in her arms, light and light, as if there was only an empty frame left.

"I..." Hearing what my sister said, Yao Wanning was about to speak, but Yao Shouning squeezed her hand again, helped her back to the inner room, and sat on the side of the bed.

"Sorry, I ignored you."

Yao Shouning was the first to apologize:
"I, I've always wanted to solve the 'River God' matter, but I didn't think of it..."

She ignored Yao Wanning and never thought that her sister would be pregnant.

Thinking about it now, the brand of the 'River God' is real, and the wedding in the dream is real, so it is not impossible for Yao Wanning to be pregnant.

"Do not blame you."

Yao Wanning sat up hastily, and took her sister's hand:
"It's me, I dare not confess, I made you suffer for me several times, I..." Her eyes were moist, and she blamed herself extremely in her heart.

The two sisters were relatively speechless, hugging each other and weeping.

After a long time, Yao Wanning told Yao Shouning everything that had happened these days.

Being pregnant is her biggest secret, other than that, she has nothing to tell her younger sister.

Yao Shouning heard her talk about the date with the 'River God', although he already knew that his sister might have feelings for the 'River God', but listening to it now, he still finds it inconceivable.

"How did you find out I was pregnant?"

When the two talked about the matter, Yao Wanning became calmer and looked at her sister curiously.

She has been under a lot of stress these days.

As time passed, her belly gradually swelled, and she tried every means to hide it from her family every day, and even dared not let Qing Yuan and Bai Yu wait for her when she dressed and washed, which made them a little sad recently.

But she was afraid that after Dongchuang's incident, facing everyone's strange and concerned eyes, she was afraid of Liu's guilt, and she was also afraid of everyone's worry - she was even more afraid that the servants in the family would find out that she was pregnant with a demon fetus and treat her like a monster.

Under such mental pressure, she became more and more silent day by day, and the "River God" disappeared from her dream strangely. She didn't think about food and tea every day, and couldn't sleep well at night. Even thinner.

At this time, the secret was accidentally exposed by her sister, Yao Wanning seemed to let go of the big stone in her heart, and felt that today was the most relaxed time in the past few months.

She even leaned against the bed unconsciously and reached out to hold her stomach.

This relaxed posture made her let go of all her defenses, and two blushes appeared on her pale face before.

Yao Shouning saw her expression in his eyes, and there was a thoughtful look in his eyes, and he replied:

"Tonight, Shizi and I are going to look for lanterns by the river."

At first, Yao Wanning thought she was going out with Lu Zhishi, a smile appeared in her eyes, and before she could speak, she heard Yao Shouning say:
"After you were 'branded', the Eldest Princess and the Crown Prince came to our house as guests, do you still remember?"

Yao Wanning's heart skipped a beat. Hearing this, she already faintly felt that something was wrong.

But she still suppressed her uneasiness, nodded, and said:
"of course I remember."

Such a serious incident happened that day, a 'thief' entered the house, and the whole family was very nervous.

After the eldest son arrived, he had a quarrel with Yao Shouning. Yao Shouning knelt down and called him 'Father', so angry that Liu almost beat her up.

Thinking of this, Yao Wanning was very disturbed, struggling to get up, but as soon as she moved, Yao Shouning pushed her back on the bed, and she said anxiously:

"That day you made a deal with Shizi, and asked him to help intercept, intercept..."

"Correct."

Yao Shouning probably mentioned the matter to her sister, she paused:
"But I didn't tell you what happened that night."

Yao Wanning became more and more uneasy.

She remembered that she slept very deeply that night, and when she woke up, she only knew that the house had been burglarized again, and the house was severely damaged, so she moved into Yao Shouning's house from then on.

Yao Wanning, who knew the inside story, of course knew that it was not a 'thief' who entered the house. Amidst Liu's scolding, she knew that her sister had asked the eldest son for help, and once again drove away the 'river god' for her.

Judging from the damage to the house that night, the battle was serious that night. Not only the prince was injured, but Yao Shouning's palm was also seriously injured. However, no one mentioned this matter again. Now, instead, the ghost appeared in her dream, which was considered a temporary end.

"That night, the family members were affected by the demon fog, and they slept very deeply. My son and I also entered," Yao Shouning said up to this point, looked up behind Yao Wanning, and then said:

"In the illusion of 'him'."

Yao Shouning's tone was calm and his voice was gentle. Under her comfort, Yao Wanning, who was originally very nervous, gradually calmed down and listened quietly to her continuing.

"Yao's house was flooded that night, and the water flowed down and rushed into the yard. Shizi and I were in the current and saw the lanterns floating down the upper reaches of the river."

"..." Hearing this, Yao Wanning's heart moved, but she was not in a hurry to ask.

"The son picked up a lamp. There were words on the paper, but the handwriting had become blurred. We recognized it for a long time, and vaguely recognized a letter written by a woman, mentioning the words March and pregnancy..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yao Wanning almost screamed out.

She went out secretly tonight, what did she do, God knows, Earth knows, she knows, other than that, she never told anyone.

And no one knew better than her what Yao Shouning said at this moment.

"The handwriting was blistered at the time, so I couldn't see it clearly, but it seemed familiar." Yao Shouning lowered his head and said:
"But we all know that this must be a reminder, so in January, after the prince heard that someone would put lanterns by the river during the Shangsi Festival in previous years, he asked me to be together this year."

She went on to say:

"After the two of us arrived in the south of the city, we took advantage of the darkness and saw a lantern in someone's hand, so we rushed to the river, and we saw lanterns floating all over the river."

Even if she didn't say what happened later, Yao Wanning could guess from her soaked clothes:

"You got into the water."

"Correct."

She nodded and said:

"After we got into the water, just like what happened in the illusion, Shizi picked up a lantern, on which was written—"

Yao Shouning paused, but Yao Wanning continued:

"Since the last parting in the dream, you have not appeared for a long time..."

Yao Shouning also opened his mouth and said in unison with her:

"Now I want to tell you that I am three months pregnant."

"Looking forward to your return," Yao Shouning said.

"Looking forward to your return." This was Yao Wanning's thin voice.

The last syllable of the two sisters fell, and the lingering sound turned into sound waves and vibrated. The ghost of the "River God" standing silently behind Yao Wanning moved, raised his head, and there seemed to be a flash of light in those eyes shrouded in black mist. There are two points of silvery white luster.

"You must have recognized my handwriting." Hearing this, Yao Wanning smiled wryly and sighed.

"It's not just that." Yao Shouning shook his head and said, "Before I got into the water, I had already seen your figure, but there were so many people at that time, and before I had time to call you, something happened again. I didn't find you, and I just thought I was dazzled."

But later she went into the water to find the letter, recognized her sister's handwriting, and based on the contents of the letter and the previous glimpse, the truth of the matter was laid out in front of her.

Yao Shouning sighed:
"Sister, it's hard for you to hide from me."

"Shouning, I'm really scared." Yao Wanning held her hand and said:
"I'm in love with, yes, it's that one..." She couldn't even say the word 'person'.

Making a marriage contract with evil spirits, getting married in a dream, getting pregnant unexpectedly, everything is horrifying.

She saw with her own eyes that day that the people from Zhenmagus came to the door to question her viciously. If something happened, not only would the family members be humiliated, but it might even attract Zhenmagus and implicate the family.

"I dare not say."

In addition, when she was first pregnant, she actually realized that something was wrong.

The mother is a human, and the father is an evil corpse. This fetus that should not have appeared was a demon fetus at first, eating away at her vitality—she could sense that her body was like a vomitus, and after cultivating a very Terrible presence.

She had a hunch that she might not survive the day when the 'child' was born.

"...I was thinking that if I died, it might be a good thing for the Yao family."

She died at the hands of 'evil spirits', the Yao family will not be ashamed because of this, externally, she was killed by evil spirits, and her relatives will not be implicated.

Yao Shouning's heart tightened when he heard the words, and he subconsciously grabbed her sister's hand. Before he could speak, Yao Wanning held her palm with his backhand, and said softly:

"But that night, after talking with you, I felt that everything was changing for the better."

She said with a smile:

"Do you remember what we said on the night of your birthday?" Yao Shouning nodded.

"You said that you could save my life. You said that after the catastrophe, I will be full of children and grandchildren. You also said that you 'met' a man. Hearing from him, there will be successors to the Daqing Dynasty."

"..."

All the things that happened that day came to Yao Shouning's mind along with Yao Wanning's words. She was terrified, her eyes widened, she looked at her sister, speechless.

Yao Wanning looked shy, with happiness in her eyes:

"Do you know, when you said that at the time, it was like the dust settled, and I felt that everything was different!"

The belly, which was originally cold to the bone, seemed to be giving birth to a mass of evil spirits, gradually began to show warmth, and she felt that what was pregnant in her belly was no longer an 'evil spirit', but a real child was really being conceived!

"There are successors to the Daqing Dynasty, and there are successors to the Daqing Dynasty!"

Yao Wanning murmured a few words softly, and said firmly:

"I only know that after you said these words, the child in my womb will be born. At that time, I was thinking, I don't know if he will be the real heir of the Daqing Dynasty in the future, and I don't understand the meaning of these words. I know his life may be difficult, after all..."

Speaking of this, Yao Wanning paused, reached out to stroke her hair, and then continued:
"Even though I may die because of this, as long as he can live and see the world, I am willing to die without regret..."

"and many more!"

Yao Shouning's heart suddenly throbbed.

She knew the ability of the Bianji clan. Xu Xiangyi mentioned that the power of the Bianji clan had the power to make their words 'true' and follow their words.

She said casually that day, to her sister, it was like a blessing, turning the child in Yao Wanning's womb into a 'true', changing her life.

Thinking about it now, it was precisely because the two sisters talked at night, and then she entered the illusion with her consciousness, "saw" that man, and heard the phrase "there are successors in the Daqing Dynasty".

But at that time, she didn't understand it, and she didn't realize the true power of this sentence at all.

At this moment, after all the causes and consequences became clear, many things came to Yao Shouning's mind, which reminded her of some small memories.

Yao Wanning was still a little disappointed and said:

"I don't regret dying, I'm just afraid that after my death, no one will take care of my child—"

She lowered her head and stroked her stomach:

"If someone finds out about his background, I'm afraid he will be embarrassing." The ferocity of Zhenmasi that day was imprinted in her mind, causing a layer of haze to appear between her brows and eyes.

"Maybe, he..." Yao Shouning recalled some past events, and his expression became complicated:
"The future is not ordinary—"

"I don't expect him to do any great things. In the future, as long as he can live well, he will not bring disasters to the Yao family. Now that my grandfather is here, Zhenmensi will also..." When Yao Wanning heard her sister say this at the beginning, she thought it was It is her blessing to the fetus in her womb.

She was moved by Yao Shouning's love in her heart, and she heard her sister's hesitation, but when this kind of "blessing" made Yao Shouning embarrassed, she immediately interrupted her sister's words, and said with a little excitement:
"Shouning, Shouning, you don't need to spend anything to bless..."

"No sister." Yao Shouning grabbed her sister's hand and said:

"I remembered something."

Seeing her beautiful eyes shining, Yao Wanning stared at herself excitedly, and asked subconsciously:
"whats the matter?"

"Sister, the 'River God' you saw in your dream..." When she said this, she looked behind Yao Wanning, and when she saw the shadow of the Yin God, she felt a little awkward:

"...What does 'he' look like?"

Yao Wanning didn't expect her to ask such a sentence, and her cheeks turned red in an instant.

"I mean, when you saw him, how old was he, and what did he look like?"

She had seen the vision of the body of 'Taizu' when she was in the underground dragon veins. At that time, Taizu was nearly fifty years old. Although he was tall and mighty, he was already half a century old to Yao Shouning. Her older sister was together, even very close, and after having a child, she felt an uncomfortable feeling in her heart.

"Your brother-in-law..." Yao Wanning blurted out, but when she saw her sister's expressionless face, she felt a little embarrassed, quickly lowered her head, and said in a panic:

"I mean him. He is in his early thirties. Although he is not as handsome as Shizi, he treats me very well. He often takes me out and protects me..."

"Early thirties, early thirties..."

Yao Shouning murmured twice, thinking of the "Chronicle of Taizu" 700 years ago.

Among these various rumors, apart from some not-so-reliable legends of fragrance and beauty, some historical records are true—that is to say, Taizu Zhu Shizhen was born in a poor family. .

When Daqing was established, Taizu was 35-[-].

Now that he has a tryst with Yao Wanning in his dream, if he meets his sister with his true face instead of using magic tricks to cover up his current appearance, Yao Shouning boldly guesses—the person who married, met, and got close to his sister in the dream, Is it the Taizu who has become a demon 700 years later, or the Taizu who was in his prime 700 years ago?

She didn't think so far at first, but when she chatted with Mrs. Shi, the eldest princess and others before, when she mentioned the history of the early years of Daqing's founding, she found that with the passage of time, the eldest princess and other royal heirs had an impression of Taizu. Great changes have taken place.

The eldest princess and the others did not notice this change. On the contrary, although Yao Shouning was in the middle of the situation, after her blood of the Bianji clan was awakened, she was not affected by the reverse flow of time, so she discovered the strangeness at that time.

It's just that everyone didn't understand it at the time, and finally remembered this change for the time being.

Thinking about it now, this change may have something to do with Yao Wanning.

"'Taizu' was nearly fifty years old when he passed away." Yao Shouning reminded his sister.

Yao Wanning was taken aback for a moment, the blush on her face faded, and her expression became a little dazed:

"I……"

She caressed her stomach unconsciously with her hand, rolled up the hem of her clothes from time to time, and flattened it with her fingertips, obviously her heart was not at peace.

"Then he, he has..." Yao Wanning seemed about to cry when she asked this question.

This may also be a hidden worry in her heart after she knew the identity of the 'River God'.

She is not afraid that her husband is an 'evil god', nor does she care if 'he' is the former great ancestor. She knows that the other party has a past, but she had no future at that time, so she subconsciously ignored it.

Now when Yao Shouning mentioned these things, Yao Wanning began to face up to those neglected inner feelings, and she realized that her husband used to have wives, and there may even be a group of concubines and many children. After all, the Daqing royal family has been passed down to the present In the 31st generation, it is conceivable that the Taizu was not single, but left behind bloodlines.

Thinking of this, Yao Wanning's heart burst into anger.

"How dare he, Zhu Shizhen, dare to step on a few boats!"

After she shouted this angrily, she suddenly realized that she was born too late.

The person she scolded was from 700 years ago. He may have married a wife and had children 700 years ago.

With this thought, her whole body seemed to be discouraged, and the circles of her eyes suddenly turned red.

"..."

Seeing that his sister was sad, Yao Shouning quickly said:
"I asked Madam Shi this question before." She explained:
"Mother Shi is also a descendant of the royal family. She once knew about the rumors of the royal family. At that time, she said that the Taizu never married in his life, and the inheritance may be from the women in the palace."

Yao Wanning bit her lip when she heard this.

She is 700 years too late.

Although Yao Shouning said that "he" did not marry a wife back then, but he belonged to someone else and had children with other people. My sister is worried.

"But after my birthday, it's after we talked that night." Yao Shouning glanced at his sister and said:
"I asked the princess again, and the princess answered me, in the "Historical Records", the Taizu lived a clean life, and he had no harem concubines, and he was not close to women."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yao Wanning was stunned, and her frown gradually loosened.

But then she remembered something and was about to speak when Yao Shouning looked at her seriously:
"At that time, I realized that something was wrong, and I thought to myself, if the Taizu's harem is empty for life, where will his heir's inheritance come from?"

The blood of the royal family cannot be faked, and the inheritance of "Purple Sun Secret Art" alone can be compared.

So far, the eldest son is the only son of the eldest princess. Now that the royal bloodline has been awakened and the "Purple Sun Secret Art" has been practiced, it is certain that Lu Zhi must be one of the descendants of the Taizu. Where did this child come from?

Yao Wanning opened her mouth, she didn't know if her reaction became dull after pregnancy.

At this time, she understood every word Yao Shouning said, but she couldn't quite understand it together.

"Shouning, I don't understand, just tell me..."

"Sister, history is changing!" Yao Shouning said directly.

"Ah?" Yao Wanning was still puzzled.

She repeated it again:
"History is changing, and this change is most likely caused by you!"

Her words were not astonishing, and she kept on talking, even disregarding what she said that shocked Yao Wanning, and then she said something that shocked Yao Wanning even more:

"Tell me, the descendants of Taizu back then, aren't you—" Her eyes shifted from Yao Wanning's face to her sister's stomach.

Yao Wanning only felt her belly tightening, as if a storm was blowing up in her heart, under the gaze of her younger sister, she subconsciously held her stomach and did not make a sound.

"Is it the child in your belly!"

Although Yao Shouning said she was asking a question, her tone was firm, as if she had already guessed the truth.

"..." Yao Wanning was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a long time.
