Phoenix Duchess - C14
So it turns out that he really was someone from the Flower God’s Day!
Dong Ling Wan walked forward quickly, only stopping when she felt she was far away from Xiao Qian’s line of sight. He closed his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief. Suppressing the thought in her heart, she slowly walked into the crowd. Before long, Luo Ying’er came forward to talk to her. “Ling Wan, you … “Are you okay?”
Caution could be heard in Ying’er’s voice. Dong Ling Wan thought that she must be blaming herself for what happened just now. She patted her hands and said, “Miao Yin, no need to be like this. I know that you didn’t do it on purpose.”
When Luo Ying’er heard Song Jingyu’s name, her face turned red and she quickly declined. How could Dong Ling Wan understand her modesty, and directly pulled her to Song Jingyu. Her relationship with Luo Ying’er was not deep, but seeing that this was a pretty lady who was compatible with Brother Yuan Xuan, she was naturally willing to liaise with the two of them.
Song Jingyu felt a little embarrassed when she saw Dong Ling Wan pulling Luo Ying’er over, so she chatted with Dong Ling Wan to ask about Song Jingyi’s situation, while Dong Ling Wan smiled and complained to him, saying that Song Ling was always sticking to her like a child, but today, she was quite well. She had been staying in the mansion and didn’t go out much.
“Her departure these past few days made the mansion extremely peaceful and quiet. I didn’t even want to bring her back.” Although Song Jingyu’s tone was filled with helplessness, it was filled with love. Eastern Ling Wan couldn’t help but think of her brother, and she wondered if he would be back by the end of the year.
She felt a little lonely in her heart, and felt that she was a little unnecessary here. Furthermore, she was the owner of this time, so she couldn’t just ignore her customers, so she got up and said her goodbyes.
“Elder brother Yuan Xuan!” Dong Ling Wan dragged her words as she looked reproachfully at Song Jingyu. She had finally managed to pull him over, but he hadn’t said a single word to her!
Song Jingyu laughed dryly and did not say anything else. Dong Ling Wan and Song Jingyu agreed that they would return to the Eastern Mansion together today and let him bring Song Jingyi away. Then, they split up.
“What did Big Bro talk to Second Miss Dong just now?” Xiao Han glanced at Eastern Lingwan from afar.
“Poetic etiquette.”
“The second young miss of the east is only famous outside. You like to chat with your big brother?”
“Not too bad.”
Xiao Han shook his head helplessly. He felt that he had no good time to chat with him, so he waved his fan towards Eastern Ling Wan, who was just about to salute him.
The two of them didn’t get to know each other well, so Dong Ling Wan wasn’t very clear about his purpose of coming here, but Xiao Han didn’t have any proper business to discuss with her, and the two of them chatted about tea at some point in time. Xiao Qian looked at the smile on Dong Ling Wan’s face and frowned.
“Second brother, it’s getting late.” Dong Ling Wan was startled as she saw Xiao Qian appear behind her. She immediately stopped smiling. Seeing that Dong Ling Wan had changed her expression so quickly, Xiao Qian frowned.
Xiao Han heard this and nodded his head, but he was not done yet. In this conversation just now, Xiao Han had long since treated Dong Ling Wan as a friend in a cup of tea. He agreed to talk with her another day before letting the matter rest.
“Where did third brother and patrol brother go?” Xiao Han couldn’t help but ask as he couldn’t find any trace of the two behind Xiao Qian.
“He went to drink with someone.”
At this time, Song Jingyu came over, bowed to the two, and invited Eastern Ling Wan to go with him.
The two of them did not speak on the way, but when they passed the pavilion, they saw Pu Jing standing there by himself, as if he was just standing there waiting for Dong Ling Wan.
“I’ll wait for you outside the manor. The two of you chat for a while.” And … I don’t think anyone has ever mentioned this to you before. Pu Jing has already stated that His Majesty had requested that his title be shorn of his title, and that he would have to move out of the capital soon. ”
“Move out of the city?”
Song Jingyu nodded slightly and left alone without another word.
Dong Ling Wan thought of Song Jingyi’s abnormal actions in the past few days. She must be afraid that she would know about it!
Dong Ling Wan looked at Pu Jing, and the two of them walked towards each other. When they were less than one step apart, they stopped walking at the same time.
“It’s not that I don’t like these kinds of occasions. Why are you here now?” Eastern Ling Wan was the first to break the silence. She didn’t look at him, and only lowered her head slightly.
“I was just guessing that you must come, so I wanted to meet you …” I’m leaving. ”
“I’m in a bit of a hurry.”
“You know that the capital is going to fall into chaos. The Pu family won’t be able to get into this mess.” Pu Xi sighed lightly. “Remember to be careful in the capital. Although you are young, you still need to consider everything carefully. Don’t be angry.”
Dong Ling Wan’s gaze drifted elsewhere. She had known Pu Jing for almost three years, and he was like a friend to her as well as her teacher. When she was young, she should have been thinking about him the most.
He had taught her too much, but she didn’t know if she really loved him, because he had never taught her about it. In any case, after three years, he was the person he trusted the most, and perhaps it would be more appropriate to call him his friend. After all, he was different from A-Xun, and while A-Xun was a family member, you could fully trust them, but there were some things you couldn’t tell him.
He had participated in his own growth. Now that he had left, perhaps he would never have the chance to see her again. How could she bear with this?
Dong Ling Wan didn’t answer him, but said, “Pack up your belongings carefully. Don’t leave anything behind, or there’ll be trouble.”
“No matter how many I bring, one of them will eventually land here.”
Dong Ling Wan looked at the swaying lotus flowers in the pond, and smiled bitterly. “It’s not good to lose everything. It’s better to take it away. In the future, give it to someone who can cherish it.”
“I’m afraid I won’t be able to meet him.”
“In the world of mortals, there will always be such a person.”
Pu jing looked at her and extended his hand to touch her hair, but his hand remained hanging down. He gave a faint smile and said: “Hua Rou, take care.”
Dong Ling Wan didn’t answer, the two of them facing each other, one looking towards the south, the other towards the north …
Seeing that Dong Ling Wan had come out, Song Jingyu didn’t say anything. She just walked silently beside her. The two of them didn’t ride on the palanquin and walked straight into the main gate of the Eastern Mansion. However, before the two of them entered the main hall, they saw Song Jingyi leaning on the door angrily. It was obvious that she had come to block them, “Why did you two come back together?”
“We bumped into each other during Miao Yin’s poetry meet. Since big brother Yuan Xuan is here, you can go back with him!”
Song Jingyi gave a cold humph and turned to walk back into the manor. However, Song Jingyu pulled her down and pulled her down. He spoke with a stern tone, “Song Jingyi, I can follow you when you are usually unruly, but you can’t mess around with something like this!”
Song Jingyi wanted to struggle free, but her wrist was firmly gripped by someone. She stubbornly twisted her head and refused to look at him. Dong Ling Wan held Song Jingyi’s hand, “The wedding is a big matter, and cannot be treated as child’s play. If you continue like this, I won’t be able to stop the old marquis if he comes to tie you up.”
“All you know is to lecture me and to him, and no one cares about my warmth. “Yes, I, Song Jingyi, am just a clown to you. You can bully anyone and humiliate anyone. If that’s the case, why do you need to say something that’s good for me? Everyone has their own opinions and wants to provoke me. Just treat me as a dead man!”
Song Jingyi shook off Dong Lingwan’s hand, wiped her face full of tears with her sleeve and ran out. The two of them were shocked and quickly chased after her. The hem of her dress was long enough for her to fall to the ground. The group of people quickly went to support her. Song Jingyi had already run far away, but stopped when she heard something behind her.
She turned around and saw that Dong Ling Wan had been lifted up, and was reaching out her hand towards her. Song Jingyi bit her lips, and then she slowly moved away and took Dong Ling Wan from the girl’s hand, “If you are going to eat, I will definitely not leave you!” Although his mouth was filled with anger, he still asked with concern, “She is a weak body to begin with. I don’t know how to deal with her in detail. The more I live, the more I return.”
Song Jingyi’s voice was still nasal, but it sounded like she was feeling wronged. Dong Ling Wan smiled and told Song Jingyu to go back first. Song Jingyu hesitated for a moment before instructing the servants to send for a doctor. However, news of what happened at the Eastern Mansion’s main entrance reached Xiao Qian’s ears in no time. After hearing it, Xiao Qian couldn’t help but frown as if his heart … He was somewhat worried.
The night had already begun to deepen, and cicadas occasionally chirped in the dense foliage. The chilly moonlight and the faint sound of the woman’s footsteps entered the dimly lit room. Song Jingyi lowered her head and leaned against the bed. Dong Ling Wan turned out the light and walked over. She took off her shoes and snuggled together with Song Jingyi.
The light went out. The moonlight in the room wasn’t too obvious, and she could only make out a rough outline. Dong Ling Wan buried her head in Song Jingyi’s arms, “Ah Si, are you feeling wronged?”
Song Jingyi did not say anything. She only used her hand to feel around and hold her hand tightly. Dong Ling Wan then went into her embrace, “He only knows Song Jingyi to be careless, and only I know that my Ah Si is the most exquisite woman in the world. “Ah Si, you know, I met Pu Jing today.”
Song Jingyi’s fingers tightened slightly, and Dong Ling Wan continued, “When we are born in this kind of family, there are some things we cannot do as we wish, especially at a time like this. Song Jing Yi’s fingers tightened slightly, and Dong Ling Wan continued,” When we are born in this kind of family, there are always things we cannot do as we wish, especially at a time like this.
“Since I was born into a family, I can’t just take care of myself. If Ah Jing is like this, you are like this, and I am the same. No matter how wronged I am, there are some things I have to endure.”
“Eastern Ling Wan.” The tree branches outside the window trembled as Xiao Qian heard the mournful voice. He slowly tightened his grip on his fan and disappeared into the courtyard.
After a long while, Song Jingyi held onto Dong Ling Wan and started sobbing. Warm tears soaked her gorgeous dress, and these soft moans hid the unspeakable sorrow of how many bell-chiming homes there were, as well as the uncontrollable sorrow of how many bodies there were in this silent and deep courtyard …
