Emperor's Women

But she was still very curious, so she couldn't help asking, "at the beginning, how did Rong Chengjin... Escape from the cliff?"

She once asked Rong Chengjin this question face to face, but he didn't answer her.

"He didn't escape." Dongfang Hao replied calmly.

Fang Yan was shocked by this answer. She always thought that Rong Chengjin must have thought of a way to escape from the cliff in advance. Otherwise, how could she escape from the fire without injury?

Dongfang Hao stopped, looked into her eyes and said, "he buried himself. Although he was not burned by the fire, when I found him, he was suffocated and unconscious. He woke up all day and night."

He said it lightly, but Fang Yan's heart seemed to be covered with a layer of wet fog and became a little heavy.

Actually, she should be able to guess. Since those people are determined to set fire to the mountain, even if it is an isolated cliff, they will never give him a chance to escape.

If he chose to escape from the cliff at that time, he was afraid that the arrows and crossbows hidden at the top of the mountain would easily kill him.

He could find a glimmer of life in that desperate situation, but he also suffered a lot.

"Knowing that you were locked up in the Ministry of punishment, he went into the palace and met the emperor in my capacity overnight. No one knows what he said to the emperor. As for what happened later, you already know." Dongfang Hao said this and continued to help her move forward. It seems that he just told her the process and didn't care about her reaction.

He didn't seem to say anything, but he said everything.

At least, those words have set off no small waves in Fang Yan's heart.

From the previous dialogue between Rong Chenghe and the emperor, she could already guess what Rong Chengjin said with the emperor, but did he really doubt her at that time? If you were yourself, you would certainly want to kill him. Would you personally plead with the emperor?

Just for the value that his existence can bring him, can he ignore it? Or did he save her for other reasons? Or, just, he wants to save her?

At this moment, she found that she didn't know Rong Chengjin at all, because she couldn't see through him at all.

However, Dongfang Hao in front of her also puzzled her.

"If I understand correctly, you want to tell me how good Rong Chengjin is to me, don't you? But you just said you like me. What do you want to express?"

"Yes, that guy is not very likable at some time." Dongfang Hao's tone is somewhat different from his previous cynicism. It seems that he has some helplessness, entanglement, or other contradictions. He sighed: "but who calls him my best friend?"

Fang Yan still didn't understand, so he didn't answer.

"I don't want you to be hurt again, but at the same time, I don't want to see you hurt him again." Dongfang Hao said.

I see.

In the final analysis, this incident originated from her. Therefore, Rong Chengjin nearly died in the fire. Therefore, King min put all his eggs in one basket and plotted against the city.

At present, Rong Chengjin's succession to the throne may not run away, so he will be the emperor in the future, and his safety will become more and more important to many people.

Dongfang Hao said so much that he was telling her that no matter what she had done to Rong Chengjin, Rong Chengjin never wanted to hurt her, and even risked everything to protect her.

Even if she once wanted him to die, he still protected her to the end.

Whatever the reason for his doing so, at least it shows that she is very important to him.

Although Dongfang Hao likes her, he can never sit back and watch her hurt Rong Chengjin again.

After understanding these, Fang Yan's heart became more and more restless.

Because she clearly knows that the more Rong Chengjin cares about her, the more it shows that he is bound to win.

He can give up all he has, even his life, but only for a possibility that may not exist at all.

That may be called Mu Liqiu.

"Well, I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed." Fang Yan's footsteps stopped at the place where the carriage was parked outside the palace gate, looked at him and said, "it's not me who has always dominated all this, but him."

Dongfang Hao seemed to have expected that she would have such a reaction. He was not surprised. Instead, he smiled deeper and said, "maybe there is always a way to make both ends meet."

Fang Yan was surprised and said, "what way?"

Dongfang Hao didn't want to go on, but said, "get on the carriage first, and I'll tell you later."

He didn't sleep much last night. Fang Yan also wanted to go back to the house early to have a rest, so he stopped asking questions and got on the carriage with him.

In the carriage, Dongfang Hao didn't say anything more to her, but let her lean against the carriage wall for a rest.

There was no sound of fighting in the streets. It seemed that the chaos had come to an end, and even brave people began to go out to check and whisper about what had happened in recent days. Fang Yan didn't listen carefully. I don't know how long it took. When the carriage stopped, Wang Yun's house had arrived.

The carriage went through the side door, went straight into the mansion and stopped at the intersection to tangliju.

The scene in front of us is very familiar, but a little strange. The green shade seems to be more lush. The Begonia has withered, but the fragrance of lotus is faintly floating in the air, which makes people relaxed and happy.

Fang Yan remembered that there was a lotus pond in front of Rong Chengjin's bedroom. I think it is full of beauty at the moment.

No one knew she would come back today. Naturally, no one greeted her.

When Dongfang Hao helped her into Tangli house, several maids were busy lighting the lights. Hearing the news, someone looked back.

Then there was a cry of surprise.

"What's the matter? The master is not here, and there are no rules?" Shuyu's soft scolding voice immediately came from the room.

"Master..." several girls in the outer courtyard noticed Fang Yan at the door. Although it was getting late and Fang Yan was embarrassed at this time, they recognized her at a glance.

After a moment of shock and stunned, several people hurriedly put down their work, couldn't help but come forward to kneel down and kowtow to Fang Yan, and said, "slaves, please greet the master."

When Shuyu heard the sound in the room, he hurried out and looked at the excited look as if he didn't know what to say for a moment. However, she looked very fast. Seeing Fang Yan was hurt, she hurriedly came to help her. She asked Dongfang Hao uneasily and said, "Sir, does my master matter?"

The look on their faces was really happy. Although Fang Yan was surprised, he suddenly felt a warm feeling of going home.

She had been living in the residence for less than two months, and she had never planned to live here for a long time. Therefore, except for Xiangming and Shuyu, she was not familiar with the maid servants in tangliju, and she couldn't even call their names.

But unexpectedly, they really took her as their master.

Fang Yan never thought that these people were assigned by Rong Chengjin. From the moment they came to tangliju, they were her people. Naturally, they shared weal and woe.

Although so many things happened, these servants also saw clearly that Rong Chengjin not only attached great importance to her, but also attached great importance to her. Therefore, even if Fang Yan has no background, Tangli still feels there is hope to follow her. Naturally, she is looking forward to her return.
