The two sat quietly for a moment, and the finch brought the tea set. Yan Ling Yan glanced at the leisurely movement of fiddling with the tea set in Ling Xiao's hand, and hesitated in his heart, and he wanted to speak for a while.

Ling Xiao seemed to see his abnormality, pursed his lips and smiled slightly: "Since Brother Yan regards me as a sister, then if you have something to say, just say it." ”

"You and Lord Lu? ......, it's because he has repeatedly protected you, so you gradually have a good impression of him, and you plan to make a promise with your body, right? Yan Linghan's intermittent voice was mixed with a hint of inquiry, and after a pause, he sighed lightly, "Yu'er, maybe this is just a kind of gratitude, not love, you haven't been able to distinguish the two feelings yet." In fact, you shouldn't have made a decision so early, at least not before you recognize it. ”

"I have a clear distinction, I have figured it out with Jing Xing, and it is a blessing for me to be able to meet him, know each other, and stay together in this life." Ling Xiao adjusted the fire, his hands moved skillfully, and although his voice was flat, it was unquestionably serious.

Yan Linglast's clear eyes were covered with a faint layer of melancholy, and he looked at her fixedly: "What about the love between you and the sixth brother?" Don't let down your father's hard work, and the promise made to you by the sixth brother. ”

"Jing Xing is someone I am willing to entrust for life, and it is also the person I have liked for the first time in this life. As for the six princes, I still say the same thing, how did I know how to love when I was a child? The affection for him may be the same as for you, it is just a dependence between brother and sister, not the special emotion between men and women. At the mention of Lu Jingxing, a thin warmth flowed from Ling Xiao's face. But when it came to the back, her expression was noticeably lighter.

Yan Ling Yan lowered his eyebrows slightly, and a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes when he looked at the edge of the case, and he was silent for a while, but he finally couldn't bear to give up, and said astringently: "The past between you and the sixth brother is not comparable to others, how can that kind of affection be so easily wiped out?" Just because you've forgotten a lot of things doesn't mean they don't exist. Besides, the sixth brother's affection for you is obvious to all, since you disappeared, he has been desperate to look for you everywhere, and it has been more than a whole year. How much does he care about you, do you need me to say? ”

Ling Xiao looked focused, took a few spoonfuls of tea leaves, and carefully threw them into the misty boiling water, and then just raised his eyes to look at Yan Linghan, who looked moved on the other side.

Seeing that Ling Xiao was silent, Yan Lingyan softened his tone a lot, and persuaded: "Even if Brother Mu told me, now you don't want to go back, but I still hope you can change your mind." When you figure it out in the future, you will realize who the person you are happy with is. You can also forget about the Lord of the Lu Mansion. ”

"I don't mean to favor the sixth brother, nor do I think that the master of the Lu Mansion is bad, but it is not easy for a person with a family background like ours to be able to stay with someone who is happy with each other. The fulfillment of your father is something you should cherish. Saying such things, Yan Linglast is completely due to a sense of resonance, because he has experienced separation from his beloved, so he cares that the people around him can have lovers and eventually become married. After a pause, "Besides, let's not say that your identity is different from that of the Lord of the Lu Mansion, so it is not in accordance with the etiquette law." Take the protest as an example, it is enough for them to make a big fuss about it. ”

Ling Xiao lifted her eyelids, her eyes were slightly cold, she gently hooked her lips, and the corners of her mouth raised a touch of ridicule: "Since they have already harmed me once, then they won't care about harming me a few more times, what's the point of me going back to the king?" It's just putting yourself in dire straits, and those means are unguardable, how can you protect me? In a phrase I've heard before, it's a shit, and it's about finding abuse for yourself.

Besides, if the sixth prince is really as you say, then why does he marry Zuoqiu Cicada again? I heard the third brother say that she is pregnant now. Don't use the Queen Mother's order as an excuse, if he doesn't want to marry, who can force him? What he really wants, I know. Can you do it for your sister not to marry, and he can? ”

This is the real reason why Ling Xiao told Yan Linghan about the mastermind who murdered her when he entered the courtyard, just to dispel his idea of persuading her to return to Yan Lingzhan, so that he would not be able to persuade him again. As for who Yan Lingzhan married, she didn't care, and it had nothing to do with her, and she didn't even bother to know. Just said these words that seemed to care about Yan Lingzhan, it was completely to block Yan Linghan's mouth.

Yan Lingyan was completely silent, looking at the churning tea on the desk, his eyes condensed with helplessness and loneliness. He knew that her prejudice against his sixth brother had reached a deep level, and if he wanted to change it for a while, he was afraid that it would be impossible, and he needed to tie the bell to solve the bell, and he couldn't do anything.

From hope to disappointment, to despair, and finally to give up, this is the pain she experienced in her heart after returning to the Central Plains, right? Yan Linglin thought that he was afraid that even he didn't understand such pain. It's no wonder that she transferred all her love to Lu Jingxing, who loved her everywhere.

Yan Linglast seemed to understand her mood at the moment. Giving up his sixth brother, this can't blame her, because his sixth brother didn't understand what she really wanted. When she was going through all kinds of hardships, the most helpless, and the most in need of his sixth brother, she didn't know where his sixth brother's people were, but the person who accompanied her was Lu Jingxing. Since he couldn't persuade him anymore, then he could only follow her and let her do what she wanted. Besides, he also saw it that night, and she was very happy with Lu Jingxing.

"Brother Last, please have tea." Ling Xiao handed over the poured teacup, and his faint gaze paused on his slightly gloomy face, "As for the identity and etiquette you said, then I don't care even more." Identity is just a false name, we are just ordinary people, who can be noble? Presumably, Brother Last can talk to Jing Xing so speculatively, and he is not a person who particularly cares about identity, right? As for the matter of resisting the decree, I explained it clearly to the third brother yesterday, and I guess he also told you. ”

"What Yu'er said is true, I really don't care much about those vulgar etiquette, what I pay attention to is just fate. I and the Lord of the Lu Mansion are also like-minded, and I am afraid that it is difficult to meet a few such people in my life, which is far more important than those red tape. Yan Linglast said casually and casually, picked up the teacup and sniffed it in front of his nose, and then took a sip.

Ling Xiao smiled and nodded, but did not speak. She adjusted the heat of the fire, then poured half a lamp for herself, and took a small sip with a faint look of comfort. She knew that her goal had been completely achieved, and the person on the other side who was holding the tea cup and was slightly distracted was completely speechless, and it was estimated that she would not bother to persuade her to return to Yanlingzhan in the future.

Ling Xiao could see that because of Zhong Liling's relationship, Yan Ling Yan would also treat people who had an important relationship with Zhong Liling sincerely. How could a person who could do such a thing for the woman he loved hurt the people who were related to her? Moreover, in his eyes, Zhong Liling and Zhong Liling have lived together for the longest time, and he will not bear to do anything unfavorable to Zhong Liling.

Moreover, Ling Xiao also knew that he had just persuaded her not for personal gain, but from the perspective of Yan Lingzhan and her, but some of the problems in this marriage contract were unknown to him, and if he knew that, I am afraid he would not persuade her again.

She heard Zhong Limu say that he has never fought for fame and fortune, and he has always stayed out of the court about the rights and wrongs of the court, if he really had a plan, I am afraid that he would not say this bitterly, this is only bad for him, not good. Therefore, she trusted him.

In the morning, the newborn clouds were red in the sky, and the morning market had just begun. When Ling Xiao and Que Er stepped out of the mansion, the two carriages had stopped at the foot of the steps and waited, and a few figures were talking and laughing beside the carriage. The streets were deserted with a patch of morning light, except for the occasional pedestrian or two, and the shops were busy cleaning their doorways.

Lu Jingxing told Ling Xiao that night that he wanted to take her outside the city to enjoy the woods, and it was a few days when the woods were in full bloom, so naturally she couldn't miss them. It's just that it's rare to have such a quiet and comfortable time, and Lu Jingxing invited him, so Yan Linglast and Zhong Limu also accompanied them. With the addition of Queer and Yu Niang, this time out of the city is even more lively.

After Ling Xiao greeted Zhong Limu and Yan Linglast, he and Qi'er entered the carriage in front of them, and there was Yu Niang in the carriage, and Yu Niang was in the carriage a long time earlier than them. And the others didn't delay any longer, Zhong Limu and Yan Linglast got into the latter carriage, and Lu Jingxing and Lu Ci rode on the horse.

As the whip in the coachman's hand fell on the horse's back, the horse shook its body slightly, and the sound of horses' hooves gradually sounded in the deserted street, and the carriage began to roll and turn.

The morning breeze was soft and cool, and Lu Jingxing, who had ink hair dancing lightly on his shoulders, rode in a slanting sun, lowered his eyes slightly, looked at the ground in front of him that kept moving backwards and lost his mind slightly, and only after a while did he move his eyes, and turned his head to look at Lu Ci, who was parallel to him: "Is everything outside the city arranged?" After last night's events, it is necessary to strengthen our defenses. ”

"The lord of the mansion can rest assured. In order to be sure, I have sent additional personnel to spy on the vicinity of Guilin, so that no suspicious person will be missed. Lu Ci's face was comfortable, and he spoke quite confidently, and after finishing speaking, he tilted his head slightly and hummed a little song leisurely, and the sun sprinkled his face.

Lu Jingxing had long been accustomed to this kind of Lu Ci, and glanced at Lu Ci lightly: "How is that person's injury?" ”

The little song in Lu Ci's mouth stopped again, and his expression became a little more serious. Since this was in public, the volume of his speech was also lowered a lot: "I was directly torn by Hei Lingmang, and I found it a little late, I lost too much blood, and it was not easy to survive, but I was afraid that I would be in a coma for a few days." Sure enough, the lord of the mansion had the foresight to guess early that those spies would enter Huizhou. ”

Those secret agents can be said to be pervasive, and last night they actually followed the woods behind the Lu Mansion, in a vain attempt to sneak into the Lu Mansion quietly to investigate the situation of Zhong Limu and Yan Linghan. If it weren't for the fact that Black Spirit Mang was now inhabiting that forest, they might have really succeeded.
