The sun shines on the man's black hair tied up with a blue silk ribbon, giving off a dazzling light. His handsome face is as sharp as a knife, and his eyes are as black as obsidian under his thick eyebrows, as if he is very handsome.

Deep and hidden with an unpredictable edge, his lips were red and plump, slightly raised to the right corner of his lips, revealing a cold and handsome smile.

He stretched out his big hand and handed it to Feng Feixue, his voice full of deep charm: "Girl, let me help you up!"

Feng Feixue slowly held out her small green hand and held it with his big palm.

When the man helped her up from the ground, Feng Feixue felt cold all over, because his hands had no warmth. They did not have the heat that a man should have when he was full of blood, but were as cold as the bluestone ground.

She hurriedly took out her arm and smiled politely at the man. Her smile bloomed like a plum blossom in the snow: "Thank you, sir, for saving me!"

The man's obsidian-like eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at this stunning woman in the snow. Suddenly she seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly reached out her hand and patted her forehead, saying in surprise: "What do you think of my brain?

When I first met you, I thought you looked familiar, but now I have remembered that you are my eldest aunt's daughter - Lin Ruoxi? My fourth cousin, right?"

Feng Feixue's guess was indeed correct. She originally thought that Chen Xu just happened to meet her and was in trouble and came to rescue her; but when he pretended to recognize her, he should have betrayed what he had done.

It is not difficult to explain why a strong man riding a horse came out of the alley. He was controlling everything behind the scenes in order to create an encounter, an accidental encounter.

Feng Feixue glanced at the strong man not far away who was leading the horse away in a hurry. After she withdrew her eyes, her eyes showed a look of surprise: "Do you recognize me? Where are you from?

Where is my cousin?" 10nlk.

Feng Feixue asked back, undoubtedly slapping Chen Xu's handsome face. Feng Feixue and Chen Xu had never met before, so how could they recognize each other when they first met?

Chen Xu realized that he had said the wrong thing, but his face was as calm as water, and he said unhurriedly: "When I went back to Kyoto to visit relatives last year, I went to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I met you then. Ruoxi, have you forgotten the three things?

Cousin me? I am your cousin—Chen Xu."

Feng Feixue had to admire this man. He didn't even change his face when he lied. He came in at this time last year? I heard Tuobatian told him that he hadn't returned to Chen Guogong's mansion for three consecutive years. How could he have been here at the beginning of winter last year?

Prime Minister's Mansion, who has seen her in person?

But she didn't show surprise or question, but the smile on her face was more beautiful, her voice was as sweet as honey, and she asked enthusiastically: "Third cousin, I remember you, we haven't seen each other for a long time,

Are you coming to Prime Minister Lin’s Mansion this time?”

Chen Xu shook his head and said with a smile: "I still have something to do, cousin, we will see you later!"

Feng Feixue smiled politely: "Well done, third cousin!"

Chen Xu smiled and nodded at Feng Feixue. He turned around heroically and jumped onto the sweaty horse brought by the servant. After waving to Feng Feixue, he raised his whip and disappeared into the snowy bluestone road scene.

At this time, Feng Feixue slightly twitched the corner of her lower lip, smiled and glanced at the teahouse behind her: "Come out and walk in the snow with me."

Wearing purple clothes, the cuffs were embroidered with a golden eight-clawed dragon, and the hem of the clothes was embroidered with gold and silver threads to form a flying dragon flying into the sky. Following his elegant steps, he swayed and swayed, as if he was really alive and swimming in his arms.

On top of purple clothes.

Only then did Feng Feixue raise her eyes to see his handsome face. He still had sword-shaped eyebrows on his temples, his starry eyes were shining with energy, and his thin lips were beautifully raised. He was such a handsome man with unparalleled elegance!

This was Feng Feixue's inner evaluation. Of course she would not praise him or praise him in front of him, otherwise he would have raised his nose very high and his cool eyes would be full of pride.

Tuobatian walked out of the teahouse, asked the guards behind him to retreat, and personally held a purple paper umbrella to block the falling snowflakes on Feng Feixue's head.

He narrowed his starry eyes slightly and looked at the back of the heroic figure who was riding on horseback gradually disappearing in the white snow. There was a hint of jealousy in his words: "What a hero to save the beauty. Even I, Your Highness, don't have it."

What a blessing!”

"Your Highness, why do I think your words are so jealous?" Feng Feixue looked at Tuoba Tian with a hint of ridicule, and Tuoba Tian had a cold face.

"All of this was planned by him. Random encounters and heroes saving beauties are all dark ideas and conspiracies."

"It seems that His Highness the Fifth Prince has become smarter? I thought you couldn't tell!"

Tuoba Tian glared at Feng Feixue, then walked with Feng Feixue in the snow holding an umbrella.

"Ruoxi, do you know something? Or are you hiding something from me? I can see that your face and mood are not very good today." Tuoba Tian met Feng Feixue from sitting in the teahouse.

When he passed by, he saw that her face was gloomy and a little absent-minded. She must have something on her mind, so he was always worried.

Feng Feixue did not want to hide this matter, but her words were as calm as water, as if she was not frightened at all: "The Queen Mother just summoned me and went to her Cizao Palace. She told me that Chen Guogong's mansion has been

I would like to report to your father, hoping to grant a good marriage to General Chen Xu, who protects the country, and the best candidate for this marriage is me - Lin Ruoxi." 14967626

Tuobatian grasped the bamboo handle on the paper umbrella and shook it. His eyes were full of astonishment, mixed with anger: "The Duke of Chen's Palace is so insidious and cunning. They actually want to marry you to the Duke's Palace as their granddaughter-in-law, so that they can treat you well."

It's so abominable to be so cruel. Then did the father agree? What does the Queen Mother mean by summoning you?"

Feng Feixue shook her head first: "Your father did not immediately agree to this marriage, but from what the Queen Mother has seen, this marriage is already 100% certain."

Tuoba Tian secretly clenched his fist with his other hand hanging by his side, almost gritting his teeth as he spoke: "Everyone in Duke Chen's mansion is more sinister than the last. It seems we have to act first." He looked at Feng Feixue,

I hope she has a better way: "Ruoxi, have you figured out how to refuse this marriage?"

"Yes, I have thought about it!" At the moment when she was frightened by Pegasus, she suddenly had a plan in her mind. She lowered her eyes, with bottomless darkness in her eyes: "The people in Chen Guogong's mansion

The eldest lady still owes me a favor, and it’s time for her to return this favor to me.”

Tuobatian suddenly stretched out his hands, gently held Feng Feixue's shoulders, and said with worry: "Ruoxi, you have to remember that you are not alone now, and you are no longer alone. As long as I have one day

Now, I will do my best to protect you, don't worry..." His eyes were like stars colliding, and they were as cold as thousand-year-old ice: "I will not let Chen Guogong's family succeed."

The next day, in Chen Guogong's mansion, the main hall of Mrs. Chen Guogong's courtyard was already filled with people from the Chen family.

On a rosewood chair with a pattern of hundreds of birds facing phoenixes, Mrs. Chen Guogong sat upright, her eyes sweeping over the ladies and grandchildren sitting beside her.

Except for the first seat on her left, which should be where the eldest lady Wang Xiaoyu sits, the second lady Lu He, the third lady Jiang Shan, and the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law Lin Xiang sit in sequence; to the right of Mrs. Chen Guogong sits the third grandson Chen

Xu, five grandchildren, Chen Rong.

Among them, her eldest grandson is the daughter-in-law of the eldest wife Wang Xiaoyu, and her eldest son's wife Lin Xiang has a narrow face, big watery eyes, a small nose and a small mouth, and her appearance can be described as exquisite. Lin Xiang's

His father was the prime minister of the current dynasty. His power was second only to Lin Xiaoran. He was also considered the daughter of a large family, and his status in Chen Guogong's palace was superior to others.

Lin Xiang glanced at the position of her mother-in-law Wang Xiaoyu. After waiting for more than half an hour, it was still empty. She couldn't help but frown and asked: "Mother-in-law, what's wrong? She is usually the first to arrive at the inner courtyard of the Duke's wife, and the number of people present is more than 100.

It's early for everyone, why are we so late today?"

The second wife, Lu He, looked worried and said: "It's been cold recently, and my sister-in-law's right hand is swollen from the cold. It must be difficult for her to move around. Why don't Lin Xiang go see your mother-in-law?"

Lin Xiang was reluctant in her heart, but she smiled warmly on the outside: "Yes, Second Aunt!" She stood up and gently brushed herself towards the Duke's wife, and then retreated.

The Duke's wife became a little impatient with the waiting, frowned and said: "My eldest lady is getting more and more unruly. She has been waiting for so long and she hasn't come yet? It doesn't matter if she doesn't come. I called everyone here today just to tell you that I

I have already asked the emperor to grant Xu'er a marriage, and the candidate for the marriage is Lin Xiaoran's four thousand gold Lin Ruoxi."

As soon as Madam Chen Guogong spoke, the second lady Lu He and the third lady Jiang Shan could not help but tremble in their hearts. They looked at each other, what happened to Madam Chen Guogong? She obviously wanted to tear Lin Ruoxi to pieces and had an sworn hatred, so why did she suddenly raise the issue?

You want Chen Xu to marry that vicious and cruel girl? This is too unreasonable?

Chen Rong, who was wearing a silver mask, slightly twitched his vermilion lips to reveal a handsome smile. His dark blue eyes stared at Chen Xu, who had always had a frozen face, and congratulated: "Congratulations, Third Brother,

I can finally marry the woman I love as my wife."

After all, Chen Rong is not often in Chen Guogong's Mansion, so he has no idea what the grudges are between Prime Minister Lin's Mansion and Chen Guogong's Mansion? Nor does he know that this is a countermeasure agreed upon by Chen Guogong's wife and Chen Xu in order to keep Feng Fei away.

The snow reaches the Duke's Mansion, which is as deep as an abyss.

Chen Xu smiled and nodded, but did not answer him, which was a gesture of friendliness and respect.

In this family, Chen Rong has always been disliked by the Chen family, because he was the only male who did not join the army or become an official, but chose to become a doctor to treat and save people.

In the eyes of those heroic, proud and spirited men in Chen Guogong's mansion, these are signs of inferiority and cowardice, so everyone in Chen Guogong's mansion has a contemptuous, contemptuous and vicious attitude towards Chen Rong, including his biological father Chen Jianlin.

, only his mother, Lu He, protected him and pampered him, otherwise he would not be able to gain a foothold in Chen Guogong's mansion anyway.

Chen Rong had long liked the cold attitude of his family towards him. He just reached out and touched his sharp and perfect chin and smiled indifferently.

The second lady Lu He and the third lady Jiang Shan are both smart people. They can see that this is the final decision of the Duke and Chen Xu, and it is also an agreement reached between them, so in order to express their agreement or disagreement, they

He just smiled faintly at Chen Xu.

Chen Xu looked at the Duke's wife, his obsidian eyes flashing with a bottomless and confusing light: "Madam, the Duke, yesterday I met Prime Minister Lin's four-thousand-gold Lin Ruoxi according to the original plan. In my eyes, she is definitely that...

This kind of woman who hides her secrets and has ulterior motives, I think for this family

She will definitely not sit still and wait for the marriage to happen. Just as you once told me, Madam Duke, she went to the palace to ask for an audience with the Queen Mother and refused the marriage in order not to marry the prince. So I have been thinking about it, not knowing what she will do next.

What kind of plan do you have to deal with us and refuse this marriage?"

The Duke's wife chuckled lightly, her eagle eyes under her white eyebrows full of mockery: "Even if she is powerful, if she can touch the living Buddha of the Queen Mother, she will not be able to do anything to help her."

The second lady Lu He and the third lady Jiang Shan were puzzled and both looked at the old lady.

Jiang Shan was the daughter of a general and was very straightforward in dealing with people. She asked: "Madam, if Lin Ruoxi asks the Queen Mother to help refuse the marriage, the Queen Mother will definitely help Lin Ruoxi and won't agree to this marriage, right?"

The Duke's wife smiled and shook her head: "Third Madam, you guessed wrong. The Empress Dowager's heart is always towards her emperor, who is the current emperor. We directly asked the emperor to grant Xu'er a marriage, and the emperor agreed. How could she possibly

How can I lose the Emperor’s face and ask the Emperor to issue an order to annul the engagement because of Lin Ruoxi’s request?”

The second wife, Lu Heliu, frowned: "Lin Ruoxi is known as the most talented woman in the Dali calendar. She is very smart. I think she will start from other places and refuse this marriage."

Chen Xu suddenly felt his eyebrows beating again. He glanced at the empty seat of Madam Wang Xiaoyu, and his heart began to tremble inexplicably.

Mrs. Chen Guogong obviously didn't notice anything strange. She laughed more and more proudly. When she thought about being able to avenge her precious daughter Chen, she was so excited that she couldn't sit still on her chair.

Lin Ruoxi, when you marry into Chen Guogong's mansion, you will know what it means to be worse than dead. Guangyang Buddha's eyes.

At this moment, Lin Xiang, the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law, suddenly ran into the inner hall holding up her skirt, stumbling and crying. When she saw the Duke's wife, her face was filled with fear, as if she had been greatly frightened, and she shouted: "The Duke's wife,

My father-in-law is not well, my mother-in-law... something happened!"

In Ruoxiang Courtyard, Feng Feixue, wearing a floor-length pink dress, stood beside a red plum outside the door. She stretched out her slender fingers to pinch two red plum petals and placed them in the palm of her hand.

Calculating the time, it should be time.
