Phoenix Duchess - C15

When Xiao Qian returned to the study, there was a white-clothed man standing in front of the bookshelf. Xiao Qian didn’t say anything.

The man in white was not embarrassed to be ignored. He smiled gently and asked, “Has Your Highness had a good day?”

The man in white’s name was Yang Qing, and he was known as Zhang Zhongzheng. He was one of Xiao Qian’s right-hand men and was also a talented man. Apart from his fame, everyone knew about him.

After becoming a Prominent Class in Huizhi County, Yang Zhe had married a lady with an unremarkable family background. However, the two of them had a very close relationship after their marriage. Furthermore, Yang Zhe had publicly announced that he would never marry a second person during the wedding ceremony.

“What happened?” Xiao Qian raised his eyebrows. Normally, this guy didn’t come here.

“Someone is investigating the whereabouts of His Highness.”

“Do it.”

Xiao Qian didn’t even raise his head. Yang Zhe furrowed his brows and curiously asked, “Your Highness doesn’t want to know who is investigating?”

“Whoever’s opponent will end up the same.”

“What if it’s the second Miss of the East?” Yang Zhe saw Xiao Qian raise his head and crease his eyebrows. He then chuckled. “It’s just a joke. It’s Esteemed Empress Dowager.”

Xiao Qian’s gaze returned to the pages, but he felt that the book in front of him was much more boring than usual. “This kind of joke isn’t funny at all.”

“After entering the capital, His Highness has changed a lot.”

Xiao Qian did not say anything, nor did Yang Zhe. He cupped his hands together and left. After he left, Xiao Qian raised his head. He hadn’t noticed it himself.

When Dong Ling Wan woke up, the sky was already bright, and Song Jingyi was no longer by her side. Seeing that there were shadows moving outside the window, Dong Ling Wan called out to her, and saw that Xue Feng and Tingyu had walked in together, so Dong Ling naturally knew what she was looking for. Without waiting for her to ask, she opened her mouth, “Fourth Miss Song has already left the mansion, Miss Dong Ling doesn’t need to look for him.”

“What did she say when she left?”

“Yes, she said that she would wake up early and let Miss sleep a little longer, not allowing the servants to wake her up. She told Miss to rest more these few days and not to move, and Miss Song also said that she understood what was going on and told Miss not to worry.” Before the snow had even begun to fall, Tingyu had already snatched Bai.

Dong Ling Wan leaned her head against the bed, and closed her eyes wearily. Ah Si, I’m sorry, there are some things that shouldn’t bother you, it’s just that you loved the wrong person.

After breakfast, Dong Ling Wan sat in the yard and blew the breeze. She placed a cup of supplements on the small stone table and said, “It’s just been stewed, young lady, eat it while it’s still hot!”

Dong Ling Wan couldn’t help but shake her head when she saw this item. She seemed to have expected it to be like this, and didn’t give up. Instead, she poured some of the blood in the cup out.

“You can’t put it like that. Even if you make up for it, something bad will happen. You don’t have to be polite. ”

The four of them came in together. Xiao Han saw that she was about to get up, so he quickly waved his hand. Since the day of the poetry meet, Dong Ling Wan and Xiao Han were quite familiar with each other, so naturally, they spoke a bit more casually.

“A gift cannot be wasted! Hurry up and drink your tea!” Eastern Ling Wan instructed the snow people to bring tea.

“Of course, of course, but if the younger brother is here alone, then I’m afraid it might not be so.”

She was obviously implying that she didn’t understand the rules. Eastern Ling Wan raised her head, while Xiao Qian sat to the side, touching the exquisite engravings on the fan handle without raising his head. From the moment he came in, Dong Ling Wan Wan only thought that he was invisible, but this person had always been purposely looking for trouble!

Xiao Han let out a dissatisfied snort, opened up his flower bird fan and said: “Next time I will definitely not go out with you, this mouth is really too offending!”

While they were talking, the little girls came back with tea and snacks. Seeing this, Xiao Han became interested again. “That day, I said I wanted to invite you to have some tea with me, but I didn’t invite you.”

“Naturally, Ling Wan will be in a hurry for your highness to choose her time. She will be waiting for you whenever you’re interested.”

“You have to serve me good tea!”

“To think that you are so picky about it.” Inspector Xiao interjected from time to time.

If they wanted to chat, that was out of the question. They had to come to a girl like her to chat, but if these princes hadn’t already arranged a position in the capital, why were they still so idle?

After they left, Dong Ling Wan instructed Xue and Dong Ling Wan to let the gatekeeper know who was coming. Dong Ling Wan then asked, “Do you want to know who is coming?”

“Especially him, he has to let me know.” Song Jingyi was fine, but if it was the Xiao family, they had to let her know. Otherwise, if these people suddenly appeared out of nowhere, it would cause people to feel uneasy.

Song Jingyi’s wedding ceremony was naturally grand, and all the nobles and nobles in the capital were present.

The marquis and marquis left early, so when Song Jingyi was young, besides the marquis and his wife, none of them were from the Song Family. Empress Dowager Song held too high a position, so naturally she wouldn’t come personally. A senior elder with talent in the family would need to invite Princess Rongyuan, while East Lingwan would be the one to praise her.

Logically speaking, she should have been the younger sister, but although Song Jingyi was known as the fourth sister in the family, she was actually the third young miss of Hou Mansion. However, due to the fact that the Wang couple had two daughters, both of whom died young, they asked the grand master to make a divination. He said that the first three young misses of the house were unlucky, so the marquis ordered people to call Song Jingyi “fourth miss.” He assumed that she had lost three of her elder sisters, so Song Jingyi did not have any sisters. As such, as Song Jingyi’s good friend, Dong Ling Wan was definitely the number one candidate for praise.

Dong Lingwan came out to wash her hands. Then, Song Jingyi came out again, and Dong Lingwan helped her comb her hair. After that, Princess Rongyuan sat down on a chair.

You must change your clothes three times during the coming of age, and you must also change your clothes three times during the coming of age.” In the beginning, the first guest would comb the hair and make the person aged; in the second, the admirer would grow old; in the third, the admirer would make the hairpin; in the third, the admirer would make the hairpin; in the second, the admirer would make the man aged; in the second, the admirer would make the man aged; in the third, the admirer would make the man aged. After the age of 30, people in their prime bowed to their parents, guests and national flag respectively, which was called the third bow.

After setting up the wine banquet, Dong Ling Wan handed the wine over to Princess Rongyuan, who then gave a toast to Song Jingyi. Song Jingyi took the wine and poured most of it into a toast, then smeared the edge of the cup with her lips.

When she arrived in front of the Senior Marquis, the Senior Marquis took out the words for her. After that, Song Jingyi knelt in front of the Senior Marquis and saluted to thank the guests. There was not a single mistake in the whole process, which made Dong Ling Wan, Song Jingyu, and the Senior Marquis breathe a sigh of relief.

She was dressed in a crimson ceremonial dress and had a peony embroidered with flowers at the back of her dress. She had phoenix-like eyes and red lips, and was beautiful yet unattractive. She was gorgeous and extraordinary. She was truly a natural beauty, and even Dong Ling Wan had not seen her like this in a long time.

“Are you still standing after your injuries? Are you better?” Song Jingyi had been very busy earlier, so the two of them did not have the time to talk. After the end of the year, Song Jingyi could not wait to come over and talk to Eastern Lingwan.

When Eastern Ling Wan saw that she was in good shape, the unease in her heart was finally lifted. She was truly afraid that something might happen to her. “I’m not a clay figurine!”

“I was just saying that I can’t see anyone, and the two of you are just taking a break here again.” As Xiao Xun walked over unsteadily, Dong Ling Wan smiled and chatted with him. At this moment, she didn’t notice that ever since Xiao Yan had appeared, Song Jingyi’s expression hadn’t been quite right …

In the crowd, Xiao Qian looked at Dong Ling Wan and Patrol Officer Xiao chatting happily. With a smirk, he turned around and left, leaving behind only a few words, “She’s just an ordinary girl.”

It was night. The moonlight was dim, and it was already late in the night. However, at this moment when everyone was sleeping soundly, there was still a candle flame burning in the garden.

In the front hall, Eastern Lingwan was holding a teacup. In her hand was the lid of the cup as she slowly stirred the tea, but she did not drink. Naturally, the person who had been serving Eastern Ling Wan since childhood knew that her young miss was thinking about something, so she kept her mouth shut, not daring to disturb her.

The girl sat on a carved wooden chair. She was wearing an elegant and mysterious purple skirt. Her expression was quiet and lazy. The high quality gold silk wooden table and chair were glowing with a golden light. She was so noble that no one dared to defile her. On the table was a half-sized ebony box. It was obvious that Eastern Lingwan was waiting for someone.

“Young lady, they’re here.” Eunuch Xue came in from outside the door and bowed towards Eastern Lingwan.

“Please come in.”
