Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 535: Capriciousness and the Assassination on New Year's Eve
At this time, there was another person who was very confused. That person was Xie Yu. At this time, Xie Yu locked himself in the study, constantly thinking about countermeasures in his mind.

He couldn't figure out why Prince Yu made such a move, and how did he know? He hadn't done anything yet, so how could he be prepared?
After thinking about it over and over again, he still couldn't figure it out. Later, he could only helplessly think that it was probably because he was not lucky enough and he happened to catch up.

There was no other way, otherwise he really couldn't figure out why this happened and why he suddenly became defensive. After confirming this idea, he continued to think further.

There was no way, because he had to think about it, because the plan was already ready, and he had made a lot of preparations for it. It was absolutely impossible for him to give up just because the palace had made preparations in advance.

However, he knew very well that although his first plan would not be affected, his next plan would inevitably be greatly affected.

But at this point, he had no choice but to move on, so he called the Zhuo father and son over and told them everything.

"Please rest assured, my Lord. This matter is in the hands of father and son. Although Meng Zhi is powerful, he can't split himself into two, right? As for the other people in the Imperial Guard? They are nothing to worry about. They can't affect us."

"The key point now is, which route should we choose that day?" Zhuo Dingfeng said

"Brother Zhuo, as long as you have confidence, you can choose whatever you want. I will leave the whole process to you. I only care about the result." Xie Yu said
"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I know what to do." Zhuo Dingfeng said directly

After hearing this, Xie Yu felt a lot more relieved. After all, he couldn't afford any more accidents now, and the plan had to go on smoothly.

At the same time, Qiu Yuan also returned to his room again. Ni Huang was somewhat surprised to see him coming back, and asked in a deep voice, "Why did you come back?"

"Uh, Madam, what are you doing? It's obviously your fault, why are you blaming me? This is not okay." Qiu Yuan said with a smile

"You, okay, my fault is my fault, but didn't you say it all at the beginning? Why are you coming back now? Don't you want to come back?" Ni Huang continued
"Madam, look at you. It's inevitable that a couple will quarrel. Why did you take my angry words seriously? Don't you know how I feel about you? I can't leave you no matter who I leave."

"I can't bear to leave you. You are my wife. You are the wife I have chosen for my whole life. I won't recognize anyone else except you." Qiu Yuan said directly.
"You, how could you do this? You, you clearly, you clearly, sometimes I really can't see through you, what on earth are you trying to do?" Nihuang asked back.
"Madam, you ask me what I want? What I want is very simple. I just want you to have me in your heart and put me before him. It's that simple." Qiu Yuan said
"You, you clearly know, you clearly know everything? You, you, I can't possibly?" Ni Huang said
"Yes, I know, I know everything, but I regret it now, I regret it, okay? Now I don't just want you to be my wife, I want all of you."

"From inside to outside, from top to bottom, everything is mine, and can only be mine!" Qiu Yuan said directly
"You are crazy, I think you are crazy, you are really crazy, I don't want to bother with you, go away, go away, if you don't leave, I will leave!" Ni Huang said directly
"I'm crazy? I am crazy, but why am I like this? Don't you know it in your heart?"

"Mei Changsu has caused trouble time and again, and you have helped him every time. He actually came to my house and told me to be nice to you?"

"You are my wife, and now he comes to me and asks me to be nicer to you? Haha, how ridiculous is this, huh? How ridiculous!"

"Shouldn't I be angry? Can't I be angry? I'm telling you, I'm not going anywhere today, and you're not allowed to go either. You're my wife, and you can't go anywhere!" Qiu Yuan asked loudly.
After hearing this, Nihuang said nothing, but just silently looked at the man in front of her, this man who was completely different from before, this man who had become a little unfamiliar to her.

And Nihuang's eyes also completely stimulated Qiu Yuan at this time, so Qiu Yuan walked forward without saying a word and started his action.

In this action, Qiu Yuan's attack was extremely fierce, completely different from the previous ones, so the final result of the knife was naturally completely different.

At the end of the battle on the second day, Qiu Yuan walked out of the room trembling a little, silently holding his waist, and then left without looking back, leaving behind a devastated battlefield.

At this time, as the other party who had been fighting with Qiu Yuan for a day and a night, the situation was much more tragic than Qiu Yuan's. At this time, Nihuang's eyes were dull, staring upwards motionlessly.

At this moment, she couldn't understand how they had come to this point. Everything was fine before, and she hadn't cared about it before. Why did it suddenly change now?

She had become like this now, a look that made her feel a little scared, and this question was destined to have no answer, because even if she had thought of the answer, she would not admit it.

Not to mention Qiu Yuan. From beginning to end, he was just doing what a man should do. If this is considered wrong, then what else in the world is right?

Time passed slowly, and in a blink of an eye it was the day before New Year's Eve. During these few days, Qiu Yuan would return home on time every day and work as usual.

He found that after the last incident, Nihuang was obviously much calmer, or rather, she was heartbroken. He was naturally very angry with her, so his revenge became more severe.

With each battle, Nihuang's fate became more and more tragic. Qiu Yuan completely let go of all his concerns, and fought at full speed on the battlefield, trying his best without considering Nihuang's thoughts at all.

On this day, after returning home, he did not go to his room, but went to the study, because tomorrow was the day when the show would begin, and he had to make some preparations in advance.

Although he had done this before, this time was different. This could be said to be the last deduction. After all, it would begin tomorrow, and he had to try his best to avoid any mistakes.

Time passed like this for another day, and on the morning of this day, the Ningguo Marquis' Mansion was naturally decorated with lights and colors, waiting for tonight's celebration. The two families seemed to be having a great time.

In the afternoon, Zhuo Qingyao suddenly disappeared for a while, but came back not long after, and nodded to Xie Yu and Zhuo Dingfeng.

The palace was very lively on New Year's Eve. Emperor Liang also smiled, which was rare for him. The two brothers, who usually competed with each other, were now in harmony with each other.

It can be said that everything was going well. Emperor Liang also began to give out dishes, and the eunuchs began to send them to the ministers' houses.

Thanks to Nihuang, the Qiu family was also eligible for the gift of food this year. Wen Yuanbo smiled and sent away the eunuch who came to give food, and then the family gathered together. "Yuan'er, this New Year's Eve is a day worth celebrating. In the past, our family has never received food from His Majesty. This is the first time?"

"My Lady, thank you so much. If you hadn't married this brat from our family, how could our family have had this honor?" Wen Yuanbo said happily.
After hearing this, Nihuang naturally declined politely, while Qiu Yuan looked as if it was a matter of course. It can be said that the scene looked unusually harmonious. After about half an hour, the meal was finished.

"Madam, you have finished your meal. Shouldn't we take a rest?" Qiu Yuan sat on the bed and said to Nihuang with a smile.
After hearing this, Nihuang couldn't help but tremble a little, but still nodded. Having obtained permission, Qiu Yuan naturally would not be polite, so the battle began again.

But because tonight is the New Year, they did not rest after the battle. Qiu Yuan said calmly, "Madam, do you hate me for what I have done to you these past few days?"

After hearing this, Ni Huang trembled again, and then asked, "Why do you suddenly say that?"

"Madam, it seems that you hate me. I know that what I have done recently will make you hate me, but I don't know why. I can't help it when I see you."

"It seems that only when I desperately possess you and hold you in my arms like now, you truly belong to me. At other times, I always feel that you will leave me."

"I'm really worried, you know? You and I are not as close as you and him. I don't have the confidence. I'm not sure I can beat him."

"Yes, you are my wife now, but only now. What if, what if he takes revenge in the future, what if at that time, what if at that time, you may not belong to me anymore."

"He will snatch you away from me, and I have no confidence that you will choose to stay, so I, so I, Madam, can you forgive me? Okay?" Qiu Yuan said directly.
"You, my husband, since I have agreed to marry you, I am your wife. No matter what happened between us before, it is all in the past."

"So you don't have to worry at all. What you are worried about will not happen. He won't come to snatch me away, and I won't leave with him, so you don't have to be like this at all." Nihuang said
"I know, I know, but I just can't control it, I can't control it, I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do, do you know ma'am?"

"I dream every night that one day he succeeds, and he comes to our house and takes you away from me, but I can't do anything. Me, me?" Qiu Yuan said directly.
"Okay, husband, let's not think about it anymore, okay? I'm here, I'm here, I'm not going anywhere, not going anywhere." Nihuang said gently.

"Okay, okay, then, Madam, you go to sleep first. I'll sleep after you fall asleep. This way, I won't have to worry about you suddenly disappearing." Qiu Yuan said gently.

After hearing this, Nihuang knew that it was useless for her to say anything, so she nodded and closed her eyes obediently. Seeing this, Qiu Yuan tightened his hands on his wife's waist.

Then he just watched his wife sleep until, at some point, Qiu Yuan also slowly fell asleep.

When Nihuang opened her eyes the next day, she found her husband was still sleeping. She wanted to move, but was afraid of waking him up, so she continued to lie down.

Looking at the sleeping face in front of her, Nihuang couldn't help but think of what Qiu Yuan said last night. She could feel Qiu Yuan's mood of worry and fear at that time.

This kind of feeling is not fake, so she suddenly began to reflect on whether she had indeed ignored her husband's thoughts before? Are there some things that really should not be done?

Or before doing it? Should I discuss it with my husband first? She had an idea in her mind and decided to do it this way from now on. She was already married and was no longer the Nihuang before.

From now on, I should no longer hide my meetings with Lin Shu and other things from my husband.

At this moment, Qiu Yuan also opened his eyes and saw the look in his wife's eyes, so he smiled gently and said, "Why don't you get up now that you're awake?"

"You haven't woken up yet? Besides, it's a rare day off for you. So why don't you sleep a little longer? There's no rush anyway." Nihuang said with a smile

"Haha, Madam, since you are not in a hurry, can we do it?" After Qiu Yuan finished speaking, he didn't wait for Nihuang to reply, but started to act directly.

I thought it would be another storm, but unexpectedly, it was just a gentle breeze and drizzle. Feeling the difference, Nihuang also had some other fluctuations in her heart.

After everything was over, Nihuang said directly, "Husband, I didn't do well enough before. I shouldn't have ignored your feelings. Don't worry, I won't do it again in the future."

"Hey, why are you saying all this? To be honest, I'm the one with the bigger problem. If I wasn't always suspicious, you wouldn't be either, ma'am?" Qiu Yuan said
"Okay, husband, let's not talk about it anymore. No matter who is right or wrong, it's all in the past now, right? Isn't it better for us to be good to each other from now on?" Nihuang said with a smile

"Yes, ma'am, you are right. We will be fine from now on." Qiu Yuan said with a smile

Then the couple got up, played around for a while while bathing, and then dressed neatly and went to pay their respects to Lord Wenyuan and his wife.

At this time, Emperor Liang on the other side was not in such a good mood at all, because he was a person sent out, and since he was killed along the way, he was naturally very angry at this time.

After all, for him, the people he sent out were killed outside the palace gate. This was undoubtedly a slap in his face. How could he not be angry?

As the commander of the imperial guards, Meng Zhi naturally had an unshirkable responsibility. Emperor Liang directly ordered his men to beat him up and gave him a month to solve the case.

Although Prince Jing, the deputy commander of the imperial guards, was not beaten, he still suffered misfortune. He was directly suspended from his official position and returned to his mansion to reflect on his mistakes.
