"Yes!" Ouyang Xu had his eyes closed the whole time, but a satisfied smile hung on his lips.
"Also, you're not allowed to fool around. If I find out that you've lost your virginity to another woman, I'll remarry with my son and never let you see your son again!”Yuan Zinuo deliberately said fiercely, but her expression was as gentle as water.
"Yes!" Ouyang Xu's smile deepened, and the curve of his lips widened.
"Ouyang Xu!" The tigress from before disappeared, and a few tears rolled down from the corner of her eyes. It was said that women would be more sensitive after becoming mothers. So it was really so. Yuan Zinuo never thought that she would be like Qiong Yao one day, lamenting about spring and autumn.
"Xiao Nuo!" When Ouyang Xu heard Yuan Zinuo's voice, he was a little choked up. He opened his eyes and saw the few crystal clear teardrops. His previous leisurely manner instantly disappeared. He frantically used both hands to wipe away the teardrops." Don't cry. It's my fault for making you sad. Don't cry, okay?!"”
The more Ouyang Xu spoke, the more Yuan Zinuo couldn't control herself. Her sobs turned into loud sobs." Wa…Ouyang Xu, wu wu…I don't want to leave you, not at all! Wuuuu…"
Ouyang Xu became even more flustered. He gently hugged Yuan Zinuo and patted her back." Little Nuo!”
After crying enough and getting tired, Yuan Zinuo fell asleep in Ouyang Xu's arms. Ouyang Xu looked at the person in his arms whose eyes were red and swollen from crying. He continued to pat her gently, and his black eyes were filled with deep anger and pain. He would not let go of any of those who had caused them to be separated.
Early the next morning, a piece of shocking news spread throughout the capital. Feng Jinmo, the Imperial Censor, the Headmaster of Hanyu College, and the god of all scholars, had committed adultery with Princess He Le and the former Northern Qiong Princess Consort Ouyang Yongsi. He was discovered by Gongsun Yu, the Northern Qiong Prince, who had gone to visit the Imperial Consort. The two even admitted that Gongsun Ying was actually their illegitimate daughter and that they had an improper relationship fifteen years ago. They had been in contact for so many years.
As soon as this rumor spread, the world was in an uproar, especially in the Northern Vault of Heaven. Whether it was the court or the people, they all urged the Sage Emperor to punish the two of them severely to correct the people. One had to know that in the Hanyu Empire, adultery was paraded in public and despised by tens of thousands of people. If that happened, not only would Feng Jinmo and Ouyang Yongsi's reputation be ruined, but their names would also be removed from the clan. For the sake of their royal family's reputation, the Northern Qiong Kingdom would definitely not spare Ouyang Yongsi's life. The Feng family would also not allow Feng Jinmo to continue living in order to protect their own reputation. The two of them would definitely die. Even Gong Sun Ying would be stripped of her title as a noble consort because of her identity as an illegitimate daughter, and would be despised forever.
When Yuan Zinuo heard this news, she was not surprised. Ouyang Xu had said that he would avenge her, so he would not let Feng Jinmo and Ouyang Yongsi off easily. However, she did not expect Ouyang Xu to act so quickly and so ruthlessly.
"Miss, take a look at this wedding dress and see if there's anything that needs to be modified!”An old nanny pointed at the bright red wedding dress and asked Yuan Zinuo.
Yuan Zinuo stared at the wedding dress. She had heard that the eight Granny Shiquan had spent a year to make this wedding dress. It was bright red in color and was made of blood silkworm brocade. There was a golden phoenix that was about to spread its wings and fly embroidered on it. The embroidery was exquisite and lifelike. There was not a single part that did not show nobility and magnificence. There was not a single part that did not show Ouyang Xu's deep love and indulgence for her. How could she not be satisfied?
Yuan Zinuo shook her head and stared at the wedding dress gently and demurely." No, very good!”
"What about these accessories?" The old nanny pointed at the phoenix crown and other jewelry at the side and asked.
"No!" Ouyang Xu had personally designed these jewelry and ordered the " best craftsman in the world " to make them. The designs were novel and the workmanship was exquisite. Faced with Ouyang Xu's meticulous care, she felt that she was the happiest woman in the world.
"Mhm, then Miss, do you remember tomorrow's procedure?”The old lady asked again.
"Alright, I've remembered everything. All of you can leave!”Ever since the preparations for the wedding, these old nannies would visit Phoenix Return Restaurant once a day, telling her about the things to do after the grand ceremony and the details to pay attention to. Yuan Zinuo's ears were getting calluses from listening to them, so she waved her hand impatiently, indicating for them to leave.
The old nannies looked at each other and retreated.
Seeing that the room had quieted down, Yuan Zinuo walked towards the bed. Recently, she had been particularly sleepy and would fall asleep after sitting for a while. Ling Xi said that the child was making a ruckus in her stomach, so she gently stroked her belly, her happiness overflowing with words. She looked up and saw a scroll on the bed. It was wrapped in a bright yellow cloth bag. The word " Imperial " was printed in the middle and the word " Secret " was written below.
Yuan Zinuo picked up the scroll. This was a top-secret file of the royal family that was only for the emperor to read. Who stole it and placed it here? Thinking back to the situation just now, there were too many people in the room. Someone must have placed it on the bed when she was not paying attention. Then what were these people doing?
Since it was placed on her bed, the thing inside must be related to her, so she opened the bag. There was a bamboo tube inside. The bamboo tube was sealed with wax. When she opened the bamboo tube, there was a roll of paper inside. It was tied with a black cloth. The paper was not as good as the paper she made, but it was already very good.
Yuan Zinuo untied the rope and spread out the paper. His expression immediately turned grave, then turned pale. His eyes began to show anger, excitement, and finally deathly stillness. The pure white paper slowly floated down from Yuan Zinuo's hand. It flew and spun, and gently landed on the red carpet like a willow catkin. Red represented celebration, and white represented death. At this moment, it was an unusual match.
The sunlight outside the window was suddenly blocked by a dark cloud, and the light in the room suddenly dimmed. Yuan Zinuo's face appeared exceptionally pale in the dark light.
When Ouyang Xu came in with a blissful smile, he saw Yuan Zinuo sitting by the bed in a daze. Her eyes were lifeless, no, deathly still. When she saw the piece of paper on the ground, Ouyang Xu was unusually flustered and then terrified. He quickly rushed to Yuan Zinuo's side and grabbed Yuan Zinuo's hand." Little Nuo, listen to me. It's not like that…"
"Get lost!" Yuan Zinuo's entire body didn't move, but her black eyes turned to stare at Ouyang Xu coldly.
Ouyang Xu became even more flustered and hugged Yuan Zinuo." Little Nuo, it's not like that. These are all written by the historian. I've never thought of it that way. I love you, I really love you!”
"Get lost!" Yuan Zinuo was still in a daze and did not move at all as she shouted coldly at Ouyang Xu.
"No, Xiao Nuo, we're getting married tomorrow. We still have children. We can't be separated, right?”Ouyang Xu was already on the verge of losing control. His handsome face was filled with panic and fear that had never appeared before as he hugged Yuan Zinuo tightly with both arms.
"Get lost!" Yuan Zinuo was still roaring coldly. She did not move, and her entire body was terrifyingly cold.
Ouyang Xu slowly let go of his hand. His expression was not any better than Yuan Zinuo's. His hands trembled as he held Yuan Zinuo's shoulders. His black eyes stared intently at the person in front of him." Little Nuo, I admit that I approached you to disintegrate the Qiyun family clan. I also admit that your father and mother's tragedy was controlled by the royal family. But these were all plans before I met you. Do you know, ever since I turned thirteen, I knew of your existence. I would come to see you once a year.”
Ouyang Xu's dark eyes suddenly flashed with a beautiful memory, and his tone became especially gentle." I still remember the first time I saw you. At that time, you were still such a small girl. You washed clothes by the cold river in the middle of winter. Your clothes were thin, and you were shivering from the cold. Then, you fainted in the river. Originally, I could have just watched you die, but when I saw you struggle with all your might, I couldn't bear it and saved you. I even gave you a Small Reversion Pill. I only left after you woke up!”
Yuan Zinuo's black smoke finally swirled, but she still stared coldly at Ouyang Xu. She remembered this matter. At that time, she thought that she was lucky, but she did not expect Ouyang Xu to save her.
"I watched you grow up slowly from a little girl. I watched you be beaten, scolded, and tortured by your stepmother. I once asked myself time and time again, was this right? But at that time, I didn't have the ability to change anything, so I could only watch the development of the situation until I saw you again in the Qiang family.”Ouyang Xu gently held Yuan Zinuo's small face as if he was holding the most precious porcelain bottle, afraid that it would accidentally fall to the ground and shatter." It's obviously the same face, but why do you have such a different gaze? I even suspected that you weren't her, so I tested you in every way possible. In the courtyard of the 'Number One Manor in the World', I saw you enter the formation without panicking and sitting leisurely among the flowers. Your blue clothes were as pure as the clear summer sky. You were so charming and beautiful. At that moment, I changed my plan. Why must I destroy the Qiyun family? If I marry you, the Qiyun family will be nothing to fear.”
Yuan Zinuo's eyes finally rolled, but her gaze was still as cold as ice.
" Later on, I don't know when it started, but I realized that my heart was already filled with you. I didn't want you to care about Gongsun Yu, and I hated that you only cared about Gongsun Yu. I was angry, I was angry, and I took responsibility and left. I've always been the favored son of the heavens, the future Sage Emperor. All kinds of women should prostrate at my feet and look up to me, but you just can't see me. So I waved at those vulgar women. Looking at their flattered looks, looking at their humble and submissive looks, I couldn't be happy at all, because a small, stubborn figure had already occupied my heart. At that time, I realized that you had long existed in the bottom of my heart and could not be pulled out no matter what.”Ouyang Xu couldn't care less. He only knew that he couldn't lose Yuan Zinuo. He might be able to redeem himself if he confessed now. If he hesitated, he was destined to regret it for the rest of his life." Little Nuo, whatever plan, whatever dignity, it doesn't matter when I face you. So I decided that I must take your heart. I must make sure that your heart and eyes are filled with me.”
"Congratulations, you did it!" Yuan Zinuo gently pushed Ouyang Xu's hand away and stood up. She stared coldly at Ouyang Xu as if she was looking at a stranger." Now, not only is my heart and eyes filled with you, but I'm also pregnant with your child. You've achieved your goal, so you can leave!"”
"No, Xiao Nuo, I lost. I beat you, but I lost myself!”Grabbing Yuan Zinuo's clothes, Ouyang Xu refused to let go. He stared at the person in front of him pleadingly." Xiao Nuo, I love you. Perhaps my original intention was wrong, but now, I love you, very, very much. I can't lose you, I can't lose our child!”
"Do you think I'll still believe your words? Are you sure you're not marrying me to control the Qiyun family?”Every word she said was like a knife stabbing into her heart. Her heart was already dead, but it still hurt. It hurt, it hurt, it hurt so much that she felt like she was on the verge of collapsing. Everything in front of her slowly became blurry, and her consciousness slowly faded. The moment before she fainted, she felt a piercing pain in her lower abdomen. Something was flowing away, disappearing...
