Chapter 168
No matter how much he begged, the Empress Dowager Qi would not let go, there was no other way, Meng Changfeng had no choice but to stand up first, and he punched the Empress Dowager Qi slightly.

"Since that's the case, then Wei Chen will leave here first."

Did you just leave so easily?

His figure was getting smaller and smaller, and Empress Dowager Qi pursed her lips.

"All men in the world are the same."

They are all equally ruthless.

After walking out of the palace, Meng Changfeng raised his head.

The sun hanging in mid-air was still shining brightly, Meng Changfeng lowered his eyebrows.

"Although I have given up on Xie Cheng, there is still love between the two of us, and I am willing to share weal and woe with her."

After saying this, he fell to his knees on the ground with a plop.

Seeing this scene, the eunuch next to him was so shocked that his pupils trembled. He hurried to Meng Changfeng, and put the whisk in his hand aside.

"Young Lord, what are you doing? Get up quickly, and don't upset the Empress Dowager Qi."

He tugged on Meng Changfeng's sleeve.

Hearing his words of concern, Meng Changfeng smiled: "Thank you, father-in-law. When the Queen Mother takes back the order, the Marquis will naturally get up."

With a very firm tone, the eunuch shook his head silently.

"The Empress Dowager Qi will not change her mind."

In the afternoon, the capital city was full of evil winds. In this new wind, Meng Changfeng remained motionless, just like the pines and cypresses blown by the strong wind on a snowy day, which made people feel pity.

The Empress Dowager Qi who was resting on the bed opened her eyes.

"Is he up yet?"

Hearing this, the eunuch shook his head, and he sighed silently.

"The servant has already said good things all over the place, but the young master just doesn't listen, he insists on kneeling outside, it looks like it's going to rain, Queen Mother, or you still..."

"Ok?"

The eunuch immediately lowered his head, hiding the panic that flashed in his eyes.

"I also ask the Queen Mother to make amends."

Empress Dowager Qi curled her lips slightly: "Changfeng stayed in the barracks before, and his body is very healthy. Even if it rains heavily, he probably won't get sick."

Looking away from the corner of the eye, the eunuch couldn't stop nodding when he saw the expression on Empress Dowager Qi's face.

"Yes."

After a sudden thunderstorm, Meng Changfeng raised his head, and the big raindrops began to hit him drop by drop.

Moments later, the rain poured down.

His vision was already blurred, and the cool air was eroding his body. Meng Changfeng moved his knees.

"Please take back the Queen Mother's order, Xie Cheng is definitely not a poisoner."

"Weichen will definitely find out the real culprit behind that scene as soon as possible, please show mercy to the Queen Mother."

He straightened up for a while, and crawled on the ground for a while. The heavy rain was hazy, blurring people's sight.

Seeing the figure kneeling in the rain, Empress Dowager Qi pursed her lips slightly.

"Oh, what's the trouble?"

The end of her eyes twitched slightly, and the eunuch immediately walked to Meng Changfeng's side with a cloak and an oil-paper umbrella.

The eunuch hooked his waist, with a cautious look on his face.

"Young Lord, don't be stubborn anymore. Empress Dowager Qi doesn't want to break her promise. In all dynasties, there has never been a precedent for a monarch to take back the order after giving it. Could it be that Young Lord wants Empress Dowager Qi to be the No. 1?"

monarch?What an irony!

Meng Changfeng opened his lips lightly, and the rainwater that slid down from his forehead also started rushing towards the cracks in his lips.

"If this will is wrong, why can't it be taken back?"

Hearing this, the eunuch's knees softened in fright. What crime did he commit to serve these two ancestors at the same time.

"Hey, young master, be careful in your words and deeds, the Empress Dowager Qi is standing outside the palace."

"Isn't that just right?"

After a while, the eunuch reluctantly returned to Empress Dowager Qi's side, the mink fur cloak was already stained with rain.

"Don't wear it?"

Seeing him nodding, the Empress Dowager Qi suddenly turned around angrily.

"Very good..." No one dared to rebel against her like Meng Changfeng: "Then let him continue to drench. The Ai family will see how long he can last."

At night, it was still raining.

Seeing Meng Changfeng kneeling in the rain, the patrolling soldiers couldn't bear it, and they took off their coats.

"Don't be disgusted."

Meng Changfeng was very moved by the residual warmth on the coat, and he shook his head.

"Why would I dislike it? Thank you."

The leading soldier handed him another umbrella, but unexpectedly, Meng Changfeng didn't reach out to take it.

"If I open an umbrella, the Empress Dowager Qi will feel that I am not sincere, so...you should keep this umbrella for yourself."

Everyone looked at each other, and the leading soldier pursed his lips.

"In that case, the subordinates will leave first."

The next morning, as dawn broke, the rain gradually stopped.

His legs had already lost feeling, his clothes were soaked in rain, and there was some weight hanging on his body. Meng Changfeng, who was kneeling on the ground, was precariously tottering.

Seeing his appearance, some court ladies and eunuchs began to discuss.

"What's the matter with this young master? Why did you suddenly plead for Xie Cheng? I remember that he drove Xie Cheng away with his own hands."

"I don't know, maybe the young master has changed his mind."

"Oh, I think Miss Xie is better than Miss Murong."

Kind-hearted, good at medicine, and approachable.

Even if they search for such a woman with a lantern in eight lifetimes, they will never find it.

They stood in the corner and discussed unscrupulously, thinking that Meng Changfeng couldn't hear them.

In fact, Meng Changfeng has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his hearing is much better than that of ordinary people.

Hearing the words of that discussion, his face became paler and paler.

Sudden pain in his heart, Meng Changfeng covered his chest with his hands.

He stretched out one hand feebly and put it on the ground.

At this moment, there was a sudden warmth from the back. Looking back, she found that it was Murong Shi, with worry and self-blame on her face.

"Changfeng, I was sick last night, so I didn't come to look for you."

Seeing the expression on her face, Meng Changfeng shook his head.

"I didn't blame you."

Murong Shi pursed her lips, she stretched out her hand, and took Meng Changfeng's elbow.

"Go, come back with me."

How can I do that? Tomorrow is the day of execution. When he thinks that Xie Cheng will die, he feels his stomach tumbling, and his heart seems to be pinched by an invisible big hand.

"The queen mother has not withdrawn her will, I can't go back, I want her to see my sincerity."

Anyway, he is also a marquis, he has never done this kind of thing before, and the Empress Dowager Qi will definitely not embarrass him too much.

Hearing these words, Murong Shi's heart was turned upside down.

"Do you think you know Queen Mother Qi very well, do you think he really values ​​you?"

Her tone suddenly became much heavier.

Meng Changfeng shook his head: "I don't know her well, I just want Xie Cheng to live happily."

To actually want her to live happily, Murong Shi's brows frowned into a zigzag shape.
