Yan Liyun was murdered before she was twenty years old and "died" in a sea of fire. After living in the mountains for more than ten years, she finally returned to Beijing.
It was just her first time attending the Spring Banquet, and she heard familiar names from rumors.
——It is said that Prime Minister Cui, who is now in power, has been guarding his deceased wife for more than ten years, and has never shown any intention of renewing the relationship.
It's so affectionate!
Yan Liyun couldn't hold back and asked.
"Is the Prime Minister you said Cui Lanqing from the Cui family in Qinghe?"
"Of course, how many prime ministers can there be in the world?"
"... Then how do you know that he has been guarding the house for ten years? Maybe he has taken his concubines one by one without making any announcement?"
"I know you don't believe it. Every time there are people who don't believe in evil and send people to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and every time they are beaten out."
"... Then, maybe it's just that he... Is just a man of few desires..."
"Come on, Cui Xiang got married and had a child in less than a year. Who doesn't know this?"
But she didn't give up.
"That deceased wife couldn't happen to be the daughter of the Minister of Industry, Mr. Yan's family..."
"Master Yan has been promoted to minister long ago - after asking so many questions, has the girl been away from the capital in the past few years?"
Yan Liyun was a little confused.
Is this still the heartless husband (front) who locked her in the fire?
——
"Is her voice feeling better?" Cui Lanqing asked.
"Much better." Someone answered, "Miracle Doctor Meng said that in half a year, even the scars on the face will become lighter. In two years, maybe you can really see people - why doesn't Ming Gong go and see for himself?"
Cui Lanqing was lost in thought for a moment.
"... She said that she wanted to travel all over the world, and she hated me getting up in the morning and quarreling with her every day. After I got promoted, she had a hard time dealing with the guests at home -"
These are trivial matters.
"——She is afraid of me. I actually went there once the year before last, and Meng Bo said that she would dream about me. A nightmare.
"I dreamed that I burned her to death. "
