Quickly Transmigrate to Save the Child of Heaven
Chapter 382 Young Man on White Horse Drunk in Spring Breeze 17
That night, darkness enveloped the entire palace. A sudden cry of surprise echoed through the utter silence. Then, shocking news spread rapidly throughout the palace and beyond—the emperor had been assassinated! This sudden event, like a huge rock dropped into a calm lake, stirred up a thousand waves, instantly plunging the already turbulent imperial situation into extreme turmoil.
At the same time, tragic news spread from the Qing Prince's mansion: the Qing Prince had accidentally been poisoned and died. For a time, panic spread throughout the court, and various forces were eager to take advantage of the chaos to seek benefits and fight for power.
Yet, amidst this turbulent time, Li Changsheng, a man of foresight, remained unfazed. He secretly orchestrated a plan, directing his men to fully support his apprentice, Xiao Ruofeng, in seizing power. Thus began a thrilling power struggle...
Elsewhere, Baili Dongjun and Ye Dingzhi hurried back to their courtyard. However, when they entered, they found Feng Xi had disappeared. Baili Dongjun anxiously searched everywhere, finally finding a letter on the table. With trembling hands, he opened the envelope and saw the familiar handwriting.
"Dongjun, I'm sorry!" The opening of the letter sent a shiver through Baili Dongjun's heart, a sense of foreboding washing over him. "I have betrayed your deep affection and kindness. I have now personally avenged the Lin family's blood feud, but the price I paid was heavy."
Baili Dongjun's eyes welled up as he read this. He continued reading, only to see Feng Xi write, "If I had to say who I feel most sorry for in this life, it would be you and Ye Dingzhi. You both treated me with genuine kindness, yet I did something that hurt you. You don't have to blame Ye Dingzhi. The physical intimacy between us was unintentional, and there were unspeakable reasons behind it."
Baili Dongjun clutched the letter tightly, as if he could sense the pain and helplessness Feng Xi felt as she wrote these words. "Dongjun, I know your feelings for me are truly pure, but at this point, there's no chance for us to be together again. I hope you can forget this heartless person like me, find a kind and gentle woman, marry her, and spend the rest of your life with her. May your life be filled with happiness and joy. This is my final wish."
At the end of the letter, the signature "Feng Xi" stood out. Baili Dongjun slowly put down the letter, staring blankly into the distance, a mixture of emotions welling up in his heart. Ye Dingzhi, standing by, silently watched his friend, unsure how to comfort him.
Dongjun, with an anxious look on his face, jumped on his horse without hesitation, ready to give chase. However, nothing escaped Li Changsheng's sharp eyes. He flashed in front of Dongjun like a ghost, blocking his way.
"Silly disciple, since she is determined to leave, how can you find her?" Li Changsheng said earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Dongjun's eyes instantly turned red, his face full of sadness and despair, and he murmured to himself: "Master, my wife doesn't want me anymore..." His voice was full of pain and helplessness.
Li Changsheng patted Dongjun's shoulder gently and said comfortingly, "My disciple's wife is not only beautiful but also very capable. Most importantly, she is deeply in love with you. Perhaps there are some misunderstandings between you, but I want to tell you that life is short. If you truly love someone, you must not give up easily!"
At that moment, the sound of hurried horse hooves approached from afar. It was Ye Dingzhi, galloping towards them at full speed. He dismounted and, with a solemn expression, handed Li Changsheng a crucial piece of evidence proving the Ye family's innocence. He earnestly said, "Sir, please give this evidence to your disciple, Xiao Ruofeng. Be sure to have him clear the name of the Ye family!" He turned to Dongjun and said, "Come on, brother, let's go find her together!"
Dongjun nodded solemnly, a glimmer of hope rekindled in his eyes. And so, the two of them set out on their journey together, speeding towards the place where they had once met. Along the way, Dongjun silently prayed that he would soon find his beloved.
The bustling city of Chaisang welcomed a special person—Feng Xi. After leaving her hometown, she settled here and opened a small shop called Peach Blossom House. This shop is famous for its sweet and delicious Peach Blossom Wine and exquisite snacks.
Feng Xi was now over three months pregnant, and surprisingly, she was expecting twins! As a result, her once-flat belly was now slightly bulging. After Gu Jianmen learned that Feng Xi had come to Chaisang City to open a shop, he often personally brought people to help.
Seeing that it was getting late, Feng Xi carefully packed up the remaining cakes and was about to close the shop for the day. Seeing this, the sharp-eyed Gu Jianmen hurried forward and offered his help.
Gu Jianmen said with concern, "Miss Lin, look at your belly, it's so big. From now on, if there's anything else that requires your care, just let me know and I'll send someone to take care of it for you!"
Feng Xi smiled slightly and politely declined, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Gu, but there's really no need to bother. When my belly grows a little bigger, I'll naturally consider closing the shop temporarily and focusing on my pregnancy."
Hearing this, Gu Jianmen couldn't help but think of the past. He hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Back then, when you left this place, you were still unmarried. But later I heard that you were engaged to the young master of the Marquis of Zhenbei. So, this baby in your belly..."
Feng Xi still had a faint smile on her face, and she replied calmly: "The child in my belly belongs only to me and has nothing to do with anyone else. As for Dong Jun and I, we broke off our engagement a long time ago..."
Gu Jianmen looked at Feng Xi with a puzzled look on his face and asked softly, "Did he let you down?" Feng Xi shook her head slightly and said dejectedly, "No, I let him down!" After that, she slowly and carefully packed up the carefully made pastries in her hands, gently handed them to Gu Jianmen, and said softly, "Take these home and eat them. They may not be fresh tomorrow! It's getting dark, and I can't keep you here anymore..." Before she finished speaking, she turned and walked towards the door, stretched out her hand and gently closed the door.
Gu Jianmen silently accepted the package of pastries, a mixture of emotions welling up in his heart. He stared at the closed door, stunned for a moment, then slowly turned and left. The moonlight cast a shadow on his lonely figure, making him look a little lonely.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the Gu family, Dongjun and Ye Dingzhi had already returned to Qiandong City. As soon as they entered the mansion, the Crown Prince's wife and the Crown Prince hurried forward and anxiously asked, "Dongjun, where is Fengxi?" Dongjun was also surprised when he heard this, and quickly asked back, "Mother, isn't Fengxi back?"
The Crown Prince's Consort shook her head helplessly and said worriedly, "No! What should we do?" Ye Dingzhi, who was standing beside her, said solemnly, "Since she is determined to leave, she will probably never come to Qiandong City again! Now that things have come to this, there is no point in saying more. Let's go look for her somewhere else..."
However, before he could take a step away, Dongjun grabbed him and said anxiously, "No, I want to go find Feng Xi with you!" After that, the two of them left the Gu family in a hurry like the wind and embarked on the journey to find Feng Xi.
The Crown Prince's Consort frowned slightly, with a puzzled look on her face, and said in confusion: "This child, how can he be so rash in doing things? He doesn't even explain things clearly! It really makes me anxious and angry." She shook her head gently, with a hint of anger in her tone.
Upon hearing this, the prince standing by couldn't help but smile bitterly, and hurriedly comforted her: "Don't worry, my wife. I think it must be my careless boy who has annoyed his wife. This boy is usually irritable, and I guess he is looking for his wife all over the world to apologize." After saying that, the prince sighed helplessly.
The Crown Prince's wife was stunned at first when she heard this, but then she came to her senses and quickly asked, "Should we help these two little guys? What if something goes wrong?" Her words were full of concern.
The prince thought for a moment, and then slowly replied: "In my opinion, it is better not to intervene in this matter rashly. But you can ask my brother-in-law and others to keep an eye on the situation, just in case. It will never go wrong to be careful in everything." After speaking, the prince turned his gaze to the princess, his eyes full of expectation.
The Crown Prince's wife nodded slightly to show her agreement, and then said softly: "Then do as your husband says. I hope the two children can reconcile as soon as possible and stop suffering like this."
