The Prematurely Deceased Fiance Dressed As a Heroine - Chapter 7

It’s almost summer, and the weather is hotter than a day. Looking at the scorching sun outside the house, people can’t even think about going out.

This afternoon, during the rare leisure time, the entire mansion fell into silence. Chu Xi took a nap according to her habit, but unfortunately she didn’t sleep for long, so she woke up from light sleep.

Maid Yudong was guarding by the couch, fanning Chu Xi while dozing off her head little by little. However, the maids are always very alert. As soon as there was a little movement on the couch, Yu Dong immediately woke up. Seeing Chu Xi got up, he asked: “Why did the young lady get up so early today, why don’t you rest for a while?”

Chu Xi sat up on the couch, shook her head slightly, and the thin blanket on her body suddenly fell down.

Upon seeing this, Yu Dong hurriedly put away the slipped thin blanket, and then raised her head to find that Chu Xi woke up with a vague sweat on her forehead—obviously, in such a hot summer afternoon, there was a maid fanning a fan, and it was also hot. People can’t sleep anymore.

When the thin blanket on her body was harvested by Yudong, Chu Xi got up and walked a few steps to the open window.

In the summer afternoon, the sun is very good, and the golden brilliance is sprinkled on the garden flowers and trees, which is very dazzling. The cicadas on the branches proclaimed the power of Xia Yang. The screams of “knowing, knowing” were rapid and noisy, which made people feel a little anxious after hearing it.

A little girl was holding a long pole to catch the cicadas on the branches. She was so busy with sweat that she couldn’t calm the courtyard any more. The whole courtyard was full of cicadas.

Yu Dong brought a cup of warm tea and saw that Chu Xi was looking at the little girl to drive the cicadas, and he took a look outside, and then said: “Miss has only a short rest today. Is it noisy for the cicadas outside the house?”

If Chu Xi is too noisy, there will naturally be more people to chase the cicadas tomorrow.

But Chu Xi took her gaze back from the little girl. She took a sip of the tea that Yudong handed over, and somehow remembered, she asked more: “Recently, it’s been a leisurely life. It seems that I haven’t received a post for a long time. In previous years, there were posts at this time to make an appointment to escape the summer heat.”

Yu Dong was startled at first when he heard the words, and then he thought about it. To put it bluntly, Chu Xi was a hot topic in Chang’an City. The power of the Chu family is one aspect, and Chu Xi’s name is also very popular outside, and no wife misses her at a banquet. Even if it is impossible for Chu Xi to go all the invitations, it is definitely the first time that no one cares about it for a long time.

Thinking of this, Yu Dong felt that her own lady could not be left out for no reason, so he said: “Xu is the concierge who made a mistake, I will ask.”

Chu Xi had a tolerant temperament, so she developed Yu Dong’s temperament. She ran away as soon as she finished speaking, and Chu Xi ignored her.

After about a quarter of an hour, Yu Dong came back with nothing but his hands: “Miss, I have asked, the posts received by the mansion these days have been taken by Qi Langjun, including several invitations to the young lady. Qi Langjun didn’t let anyone send it either.”

Yu Dong still complained a little bit, after all, how to treat such things as invitations depends on the person. Which one should be close to which one should be ignored is up to the lady to decide by herself. It’s fine now, Qi Langjun took all the posts and didn’t tell me yet, what should I do if I missed something?

Hearing the complaint in Yu Dong’s words, Chu Xi glanced at her lightly, and immediately silenced the unsure girl.

Chu Xi didn’t say anything about the matter, but she was as smart as her, just after thinking about it, she guessed the matter seven or eighty-eight-Seventh brother came close to her, but never interfered with her friendship and communication. Suddenly, all her posts were taken away. Except for Wen Fei, Chu Xi couldn’t think of a second explanation.

The most important thing is that even all the invitations are taken away, which makes Chu Xi have to wonder whether Brother Seven doesn’t want her to go out…In other words, as long as she goes out, she might meet Wen Fei!

So, has the other party blocked her door? !

************************************************** *****************************

Wen Fei has been guarding outside Chu Mansion for three days. She gambled and didn’t shy away. She stood outside the gate of Chu’s house for three days, and almost let the news spread to a small part of Chang’an City.

After waiting for these few days, Wen Fei was calmer after all, and realized that what he had done was a bit naive. But all came, young people are good-looking and always demand results, so they wait patiently.

Fortunately, Wen Fei’s waiting was not in vain. On this day, she finally waited until the gate of Chu’s family opened, and what came out was not the carriage familiar to the Chu family’s brothers. The unfamiliar carriage made her look more subconsciously, and she didn’t rashly stepped forward to stop the carriage. But she didn’t stop the carriage, and the carriage came to her and stopped actively. A maid came out of the car window and said to her, “Is it Little General Wen? My lady would like to ask you to tell.”

The carriage that came out of Chu’s family could not be called a young lady by Chu Xi alone.

Wen Fei, who had been waiting for many days, wondered for a moment whether this was a trick to tune the tiger away from the mountain. After all, she waited for a long time, and the result seemed too easy. But this kind of suspicion was only a moment, and Wen Fei quickly put these messy speculations behind him. She glanced at the carriage and said, “It is not convenient for me to get on the carriage. Why don’t you find another place to talk?”

The people in the carriage obviously heard it, and a gentle female voice suddenly came from inside the carriage: “The Cuiwei Building on East Street is very quiet, maybe it’s good.”

The woman’s voice was not hurried, it was very pleasant, and Wen Fei inexplicably determined the identity of the person in the car. So she said hello, turned back and took the horse tied to the side of the road, and headed to East Street first.

The horse’s hoof stomped on the ground, and the horse-drawn carriage ran over the road paved with bluestone slabs and reached Cuiwei Tower one after another.

After dismounting, Wen Fei glanced back and saw that the carriage was stopped and the coachman opened the door… She subconsciously wanted to see what the legendary Chu family girl looked like, so she fixed her eyes, but the one who came out first was the rumored one. Maid. Then, when Chu Xi got out of the carriage, she was disappointed again, because Chu Xi, who got off the carriage, was still wearing a veil on her head, but she was completely concealed.

The disappointment was fleeting, and before Chu Xi noticed it, Wen Fei restrained it. She greeted two steps forward, and confirmed her identity by the way: “Miss Chu?”

Chu Xi looked at her through the hat, and nodded slightly: “Wuweihou.”

The two parties exchanged their identities, and there was nothing to greet, so they went straight into the Cuiwei Building and asked for a box, which was convenient for talking.

Wen Fei saw that Chu Xi didn’t take off his hat, it was inevitable that he would be restrained. She had never dealt with a lady like this. She didn’t know how to speak, and was affected by the temperament of the young general. In the end, she went straight to the point: “I have sent three greetings to the mansion, but I didn’t get a response.”

Hearing this, Chu Xi pursed her lips under the veil: “Sorry, this matter is rude in my family.”

At the beginning of the conversation, Chu Xi didn’t seem to be irritated by it, and Wen Fei relaxed a little. She originally wanted to consider her words and talk about their marriage euphemistically, but at the beginning she went straight to the point. At this time, it seemed that there was no need for euphemism: “Ms. Chu, let’s not hide it from you. I want to send a greeting to see you. Tell you about the gift of marriage.”

The willow eyebrows under Chu Xi’s drapery were raised slightly, but Wen Fei couldn’t see her expression through the veil: “I would like to hear the details.”

Wen Fei heard her gentle and gentle voice, somehow hesitated in her heart, fearing that her straightforwardness would make her sad. But she couldn’t help but say something, so she looked away a little and didn’t dare to look at the person in front of her: “Your Majesty gave the marriage, I shouldn’t have any objections, but I didn’t know each other, so I rashly agreed to a lifetime, always Something is wrong…”

Chu Xi nodded, and the tone was as gentle and elegant as before: “I understand.”

Wen Fei heard her voice, really didn’t know what she really understood or misunderstood. If I wanted to say a few more explanations, I heard Chu Xi say again: “Your Majesty’s imperial decree for marriage has been issued. If Wuwei Hou is unwilling, I have no objection. Please try to ask your Majesty to take it back.”

Chu Xi said this seriously, Wen Fei didn’t know what to say for a while, so he nodded-it may not be easy to let the emperor take his life back, but in terms of his majesty’s favoritism to the little general in the past, things are not without room for change. It’s a big deal to go to the battlefield again, the joy of opening up the land, will definitely make your Majesty forget her irritation about her refusal to marry.

After thinking about it again, Wen Fei explained: “I didn’t say it properly, because I didn’t think the girl was bad, and I didn’t mean to offend.”

Chu Xi still nodded, and was extremely calm through the veil. Wen Fei felt that it was unnecessary to explain when he saw it.

The scene was silent for a while, and the two people who were not familiar with each other talked about embarrassing topics, and the atmosphere became even more embarrassing. Finally, Chu Xi waited for a while, seeing that Wen Fei had nothing to say, so she took the lead to leave.

The fact that the other party was so simple and neat made Wen Fei, who had been waiting outside Chu’s house for three days, feel a bit complicated for a while, but at any rate the two sides had reached a consensus, and Wen Fei felt a lot more relaxed. Seeing that Chu Xi was about to leave, she didn’t hold her back, only sent the people out of Cuiwei Building and put them on the carriage again.

Just as Chu Xi boarded the car, a gust of wind blew the veil in front of her.

Wen Fei stood by the road and caught a glimpse of the side face under the drapery hat, exquisite and beautiful, and it seemed to be a little familiar…
