Bei Hui also smiled with relief and said, "This is how a couple should be."
Shi Anxia walked out of the house briskly to greet Cen Yuan. She looked him up and down, and was relieved to see that he was fine and unharmed. "Why are you so late again, husband?"
Cen Yuan looked at her little face, "Are you still not asleep? Didn't I tell you not to wait for me?"
He took the wet towel handed to him by Bei Hui and wiped his hands, then took her hand and walked to the study, "There is something I need to tell you."
"what?"
"Dongxi is dead." Cen Yuan sat down, picked up the kettle on the table and poured a glass of water to drink. "Li Tianhua and his personal servant were all burned to death in the woodshed."
Shi Anxia finally understood where her uneasiness came from tonight.
She thought Dongxi would die, but she didn't expect him to die so soon. He was quite brave, dragging two people to die with him.
Cen Yuan held her hand and asked softly, "Do you regret it?"
Shi Anxia thought about it seriously and said, "No, if I had to do it again, I would still do it this way. Do you... think I'm cruel and ruthless?"
Cen Yuan just laughed, "Silly girl, I am laughing at you for waiting for so long."
She had noticed Dongxi's abnormality before they got married, and the silly girl had been waiting for Dongxi to turn back.
She was originally a person who was tough on the outside but soft on the inside. But soft-hearted people don't live long, so she had to force herself to be tough and control everything with an iron fist, so as not to become a prisoner.
At this point, it's a situation where either you die or I die.
Hong Que brought two bowls of hot soup, "Master, Madam, drink it while it's hot."
The corner of Cen Yuan's eyes fell on Hong Que's beautiful face, and he inexplicably remembered the night when Hong Que hurriedly found him and pulled his arm in tears, saying, "It's terrible, General Chen, the queen has been drugged. Quick, let's go save her, quickly, it will be too late."
At that time, Hong Que had already become the Defei.
She pulled him all the way to Yanghua Palace, and together they pulled Shi Anxia, who was already unconscious at the time, out of bed.
But when footsteps were heard outside, it was too late to evacuate.
Hong Que stuffed Shi Anxia into his arms and ordered him in a resolute tone, "Go, lie down on the bed! This is our only chance."
She took off her clothes and got into bed in front of him, stunned. On the bed, Prince Anping was sleeping like a dead pig.
The door of Yanghua Palace was kicked open with a bang, and Emperor Rongguang came into the hall with a group of people. When they lifted the quilt, they saw Hongque, who was only wearing underwear, sleeping with Prince Anping.
At that time, Cen Yuan was hiding under the bed holding Shi Anxia... That was the most helpless and suffocating moment in his life since he entered the era of cold weapons.
He was so small that he was unable to save the red magpie and could only watch it being dragged away.
Cen Yuan will never forget the last look Hong Que gave An Xia, which was full of firm tenderness and ardent loyalty.
Later, he tried to save Hong Que, but she refused. Hong Que said that she didn't want to live anyway, and she felt sick every day as a concubine of Emperor Rongguang.
In this life, when Cen Yuan was reborn and saw Hong Que again, it was indeed as many people had guessed, something was unusual.
It's really extraordinary, such a good girl! This is a real old friend.
Shi Anxia and Cen Yuan were the only two people left in the room.
Shi Anxia raised her thick eyelashes and looked at him, "Are you thinking about Hong Que?"
"Hmm?" Cen Yuan raised an eyebrow. How terrible is life with a woman who is very observant?
Shi Anxia reached out and held his hand, lowering her head. "You remember the scene where Hong Que saved me in Yanghua Palace, right?"
