Beijing.

Fang Chuning didn't expect that Xie Jue came to him to talk about Lan Ningzhen's visit to Beijing for so many days.It turned out that he really recognized him outside the small town of Red Sand Mine.Xie Jue was drunk and couldn't remember anything. He had no memory of what happened or what he said. He was also shocked when he heard Xie Jue's question. He knew that Xie Jue was coaxing him after he was drunk and couldn't remember anything. How could he recognize it? of.

Xie Jue said inexplicably, you look so much like him!
Fang Chuning was shocked, surprised, and happy at the same time, but could not continue to ask because Xie Jue was drunk and unconscious, and he did not wake up until he was sent to the Second Prince's Mansion.

He has been wondering when Xie Jue recognized him and how he recognized him. He knew many things well and had not exposed them, but he was really curious. He took the medicine. During that time, not only did his voice change, but his body also changed. There was also a slight change on the screen, which was definitely not recognized by Xie Jue. This was why Fang Chuning had always been sure that Xie Jue didn't know it was him. If he knew it was him, those things and those words would really make him feel ashamed. Maybe he would have to change his identity. , appearance, only in a foreign country can you say those words without restraint.

Only by hiding the truth in the heart and not telling it with the mouth can he and he live in peace for the rest of their lives. Once exposed, it would become the predicament they are in today.

"How will the Lan family be settled when they come to Beijing? How did you talk to General Lan back then, and what happened to Lan Ningzhen?" Xie Jue's voice was a little cold in the snow.

Fang Chuning was able to pretend to be Lan Ningzhen back then, and it was indispensable without the tacit approval of General Lan. General Lan was the person who instigated the rebellion of the Zhenbei Marquis. Later, Fang Chuning went to the Northern Barbarians to look for him, and it was General Lan who took him in and gave him a new identity.Originally, he wanted to use the identity of Lan Ningzhen's cousin, but Fang Chuning felt that his cousin's identity was too distant and difficult to perform under the strict hierarchical system of Fox City, so he pretended to be Lan Ningzhen.

"Back then, the Marquis promised the Lan clan that if one day the Northern Barbarians surrendered, he would persuade the Holy One to grant the king a title and protect the Lan clan's glory and bloodline, and he would not mention his rebellion." Fang Chu Ning sat opposite Xie Jue. , heavy snow was flying outside the pavilion, Fang Chuning thought of the Northern Barbarians back then. In his memory, Fox City spent most of the year in the snow, and the weather was freezing cold. That year he was eager to help Xie Jue complete the task, and counted several Every time they take risks in desperation, they are living on the edge of a knife, and they will be shattered to pieces if they are not careful. But he is really happy, because they are husband and wife in the northern barbarians, and they can express the feelings hidden in their hearts unscrupulously.

At the same time, he discovered very sadly that once he returned to his hometown, everything would be in vain.

Fang Chuning said, "The Northern Barbarian royal family still doesn't know that I was pretending to be Lan Ningzhen during that time, but they know that you are He Lianfeng. We don't know that Lan Ningzhen is pregnant with a daughter. Now that the Lan family is in Beijing, with my understanding of Lan Ningzhen The general knows that he probably doesn’t want us to make what happened back then known to the public. He has been in the Northern Barbarians for many years and has deep roots. If the Northern Barbarians know that he has rebelled long ago and lured wolves into the house, he will be the target of public criticism. The Marquis promised him back then that he would definitely To protect his reputation, this matter cannot be made public as it will make him miserable."

Xie Jue frowned slightly and scowled, "What does this imply, do I want to recognize Lan Ningzhen and her daughter?"

There was a dryness in Fang Chuning's throat, and he couldn't hide the pain in his eyes, but it was suppressed in his heart. He didn't want to accept it, but what could he do?Neither he nor Xie Jue is a person who refuses to repay kindness. When they were in the Northern Barbarians, they took risks many times after getting married. General Lan risked his life to rescue them. Later, it was General Lan who risked his life to send them out of the Northern Barbarians. Otherwise, he and Xie Jue It is impossible to get out of the snowy mountains alive.

Back then, the Marquis had promised General Lan to keep it secret. As a son, Xie Jue could not disobey his father's order. This would be a breach of trust.

We can't ignore General Lan's help back then. Lan Ningzhen must have encountered something difficult, otherwise General Lan wouldn't have made such a request.

Fang Chuning said, "We have been away from the Northern Barbarians for many years, and we don't know what happened to the Lan family. I'm afraid we won't know until the Lan family comes to Beijing. Then we can discuss it with General Lan and Lan Ningzhen, maybe..."

"I know!" Xie Jue said calmly, "After all, they are kind to us. Since they made a request and my father's will, I should be satisfied. If you want me to accept it, it is not difficult."

He doesn't plan to marry and have children in this life. If Lan Ningzhen wants this empty title, it doesn't matter if it's given to her. It's just an empty title. If it's given, it's given to her, which is regarded as repaying their love for protecting her.Without their father and daughter, he and Fang Chuning would have died countless times in the dangerous Fox City.If they had died in the Northern Barbarians, what would the world be like now? I don't know if Zhixu would have succeeded in ascending the throne. After receiving kindness from others, he had to repay the kindness.

"Tingfeng..." Fang Chuning's eyes were slightly red. Did Tingfeng really not want to pay attention to him anymore?If Lan Ningzhen goes to Beijing, he doesn't care about that status. Anyway, Xie Jue's status as a concubine cannot be him. The oath she said in front of the Northern Barbarian King was true, and her feelings were true, but he and he were in Beining. How can we break the shackles?

"The fact that you pretended to be Lan Ningzhen in the Northern Barbarians must not be known to anyone. If others knew about it, you would become everyone's laughing stock." The famous general pretended to be a woman in the Northern Barbarians and got married, and almost married Dugu. Jing, you have made countless jokes. This matter must not be known to others.

Lan Ningzhen can only be Lan Ningzhen, not Fang Chuning.

In addition to protecting the reputation of General Lan, he also wanted to protect the reputation of Fang Chuning.

Fang Chuning hesitated to speak. There were many words he wanted to say, but they were blocked in his mouth. It was difficult to express. His heart felt like there were countless ants biting his heart, and it was densely painful.

They... can only do this!

The wind and snow were very strong, and it fell all the way into their hearts.

Xie Xun has been gossiping ever since he heard the story about Xie Jue and Lan Ningzhen in Beiman. Now Dugu Jing is a little annoyed when he calls him to the palace frequently.

Xie Xun said very rationally, "I know my second brother's temperament and preferences fairly well. Unless you use Gu, it is impossible for you to marry Lan Ningzhen and have children. You were also very fond of Lan Ningzhen back then." The daughter you covet...couldn't it be yours?"

"Want to fight?" Dugu Jing glared, "The matter between me and Lan Ningzhen has long been over. Besides... ever since Xie Jue's identity was exposed and left Fox City, Lan Ningzhen's temperament has changed drastically, and I have long disliked him. , I liked the old Lan Ningzhen better!"

Xie Jue and Fang Chuning also came to see Xie Xun to talk about Lan Ningzhen and the Lan family. As soon as they entered the door, they heard Dugu Jing shouting. Fang Chuning almost kicked him on the threshold, but Xie Jue reached out to help him, half-smiling but not smiling. Looking at Fang Chuning, with Fang Chuning's face flushed with embarrassment, she said to Dugu Jing, "The ninth prince has never forgotten my first wife!"

Fang Chuning, "..."

Xie Xun, "..."
