Du Yan was afraid, she was no longer as innocent and unscrupulous as in her previous life, her heart had already died once, and she really didn't want to experience the pain of devouring her heart again.

So she couldn't answer Xiao Yechen directly, she felt that she hadn't thought it through and couldn't answer rashly.

And Xiao Yechen also came to his senses after a long wait, how could he ask such a question, maybe he subconsciously felt that his relationship with Du Yan was no longer the same, and because of this, he thought of himself as important.

Xiao Yechen suddenly lowered his head and laughed at himself, he was too naïve.

"When I didn't ask, rest early, I'll have something to contact." After Xiao Yechen finished speaking, he dragged his body as if he had been pulled out of his soul and walked away.

Du Yan watched Xiao Yechen's back at the gate of Changting Palace for a long time, until Xiao Yechen completely disappeared into the night. Du Yan lifted her stiff leg and turned around and walked towards the Changting Palace.

Did she hurt Xiao Yechen? She didn't know, she only knew that she couldn't speak when faced with Xiao Yechen's question, she couldn't answer, no matter how she forced herself, she couldn't give an answer.

Du Yan's eyes were astringent, and she suddenly felt cold on her face, and she reached out and wiped it fiercely at the corner of her eye. sighed fiercely at the empty palace, does she like Xiao Yechen? Do you like Xiao Yechen like Xiao Wenqing in the previous life?

Du Yan can't figure out her heart anymore, the love in the previous life is now only hatred, she forgot how she felt when she liked Xiao Wenqing, so she couldn't know whether she liked Xiao Yechen or not.

The day after tomorrow, there will definitely be another incident at the flower viewing banquet, Xiao Yechen's problem is obviously to make her stand on his side, Du Yan is not distrustful of Xiao Yechen, but she can't easily make a decision about marriage.

Du Yan decided, if the emperor really forcibly pulled Lang to match that day, Du Yan would refuse bluntly.

She walked to the door of the room and pushed the door and walked in, Du Yan didn't turn on the light, she didn't want to wake up Xiao Lu, but she didn't expect Xiao Lu to be waiting for her next to her bed, and her eyes were not closed.

As soon as Xiao Lu saw Du Yan coming back, she hurriedly stepped forward to light the oil lamp, she reached out to help Du Yan undress, and waited for her without saying a word.

Du Yan was not so excited, but Xiao Lu's sudden silence made her uncomfortable, so she opened her mouth and asked, "Why didn't you ask me what I was doing?" ”

Xiao Lu was stunned when he heard this, and after a while of silence, he said: "No matter what Miss does, Miss just needs to come back safely, and Miss must be tired, so it's okay to talk about it tomorrow." ”

Du Yan comforted Xiao Lu's sensibility, it seems that Xiao Lu has gone through a lot with her, and the little girl is becoming more and more stable.

Xiao Lu went down to sleep after serving Du Yan, leaving Du Yan to lie on the bed alone, flipping into the morning.

Du Yan didn't sleep very well this night, she had a dream a long time ago, dreaming that she and Xiao Wenqing were together, everything was good at that time, and she wouldn't have thought that her end up would be so miserable one day.

Du Yan woke up in a noise, and when she opened her sleepy eyes facing the scorching sun, what she saw was Lian Qi and Xiao Lu hurriedly fiddling with the things on the table.

Du Yan is still in bed

It took a half pillar of incense for a while, and then he slowly realized the existence of the flag in the house, and suddenly woke up.

She stared at Lian Qi in a daze, Lian Qi looked back at her calmly, and then Xiao Lu on the side stepped forward and said, "Miss, are you awake?" ”

Du Yan blinked, nodded slowly, and said, "Yes, wake up." ”

Lian Qi couldn't help but laugh when she saw Du Yan's stunned face, she looked at Du Yan with a smile and said, "Miss Du is really a good sleep, she sleeps until three o'clock in the morning." "...#爱奇文学.i7wx. @&Fastest update】

Du Yan blushed when she heard this, got up with Xiao Lu's service, and coughed before saying, "It's time for Miss Lian to see the joke." ”

Lian Qi sat on the chair and said with a smile: "It's okay, I also like to sleep lazy." ”

Du Yan nodded, looked at Xiao Lu on the side, and said, "Xiao Lu, go get some food, I want to eat with Miss Lian today." ”

Xiao Lu answered and turned around and walked out, and Du Yan saw that people were walking away, so she poured a cup of tea for Lian Qi leisurely.

"Miss Lian is here for something important to inform Du Yan?"

Lian Qi put the teacup on the table and pushed it back and forth, staring at the porcelain cup with his eyebrows and eyes: "Miss Du is so smart." ”

Du Yan raised her hand and poured herself a glass, and said while drinking: "If Lian Qi treats me as a sister, it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Lian Qi raised his eyes to look at her and chuckled: "When I first saw you, I knew that you were absolutely extraordinary, and there were few female dependents with such courage as you." ”

Du Yan said: "Pass the award." If there is anything Du Yan can help, my sister can just ask. ”

"A few days ago, my father sent me a letter home." Lian Qi recalled what her father had said to her before, and a faint sadness appeared between her eyebrows.

Du Yan looked at her appearance and nodded lightly, it seems that all the adults can't wait, and the actions and words are probably the same.

Du Yan twisted a grape and put it in her mouth, and said slowly: "What do you say?" ”

Lian Qi sighed heavily over there and said, "I didn't say it clearly, but I understand my father's temper, and his family letter is all about asking me to please the prince." ”

Du Yan looked at her with a smile and said, "What's wrong with that?" It seems that Miss Lian doesn't like the royal family, doesn't she have a favorite person outside? ”

Lian Qi winked at Du Yan in shock, and suddenly said with a smile: "Miss Du is worthy of being the eldest lady, this keen insight really makes Lian Qi admire." ”

Du Yan looked at her and laughed: "I have won awards, I don't know which son-in-law Miss Lian has a crush on?" ”

said that his sweetheart even turned his eyes and looked at the porcelain cup containing white clouds gently.

"Who it is, I won't tell you. However, he is a very gentle person and very intelligent, just like this cup of warm tea, which holds the vast sky without a single ripple. ”

When Lian Qi was talking about that person, his expression was gentle, and the corners of his mouth were smiling, looking beautiful.

Du Yan smiled on the side, it seems that Lian Qi really has a sweetheart, but as far as the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Mansion is concerned, there is actually no need to climb power and wealth, as for why Lord Shangshu wants his daughter to be with the prince, I am afraid that he just hopes that she will live a better life.

"My dad had never done it before

I dabbled in who I liked, but instead taught me to live as I wanted, and I didn't know what happened in the court, which made my father who didn't move the eight winds nervous. ”

Du Yan nodded on the side and said, "Indeed, but even if you marry into the royal family, it doesn't mean that you can live a stable life." ”

"Yes, the women of the harem are all victims of politics." Lian Qi sighed

Du Yan stretched out her hand and touched Lianqi's head and said, "Don't think too much, let it be?" "Du Yan said that there is really no way, now that the court is standing in line, it is a time of chaos, how can she see the situation clearly, and give Lian Qi a good suggestion.

Now it's already so chaotic just standing in line, and if some forces rise up in the future, it will be even more unclear, in the end, they are still pitiful and can't control their own destiny.
