After the Lantern Festival, martial law was imposed in the whole city, and soldiers with weapons could be seen coming and going on the streets, and the common people of Tianjing were also terrified because of that night, and it is said that even the children cried much less at night.

In addition to the massacre that broke out suddenly, several mansions in Jinxian District were burned down, which was something that Duanmu Qing only knew when he saw Han Ling living in the Yongding Marquis Mansion.

After that night, Duanmu Zi called himself sick to the outside world, causing a bunch of gifts, either for the sake of the face of the Marquis of Yongding's mansion or for the face of the Duke of Qi, and the things of the five princes were sent into Xianyun Pavilion like flowing water.

This is very eye-catching in Tianjing, which is now panicked.

So much so that there are secret rumors in the aristocratic circles of Tianjing that the fifth prince has taken a fancy to the second lady who is as beautiful as a fairy in the Yongding Marquis Mansion, and the Concubine Shu and the Hussar General's Mansion have nothing to say about this matter, and seem to be silently supportive.

For a time, Duanmu Zi became the hottest topic in Tianjing after the Lantern Festival Rebellion, and Xianyun Pavilion also became the most eye-catching place in the Yongding Marquis Mansion.

Compared with the liveliness of Xianyun Pavilion, Wenhuaxuan is probably the most deserted place in the entire Hou Mansion.

And these are not important to Duanmuqing.

At this time, the most important thing for her was to wait for Duanmuhe's news.

On the bright side, Duanmuhe only said that there was something important to go to his friend's side, and he took a few days off, but he actually took someone to Luoxia Mountain to negotiate.

It's just that such a calm wait will always be interrupted inexplicably, such as the arrival of Han Lingyan.

"Qing'er's tea is really more fragrant than ordinary people."

When Han Ling's evil voice sounded by the door, Duanmu Qing was reading a book, and a cup of freshly charged Longjing was steaming in his hand.

Without raising his eyes, Duanmu Qing's gaze remained on the page, "Doesn't the eldest prince know that it is very rude to break into a woman's house without being informed?" ”

"Looks like you're still angry!"

As if he hadn't heard her words at all, Han Ling sat down on the opposite side of himself, took Duanmu Qing's teacup, and took a sip.

Closing the book, Duanmu Qing looked at him with a cold smile, "What do you have to tell the eldest prince and nobleman?" ”

"You mean I can command you? Then talk to me! ”

Completely ignoring her attitude, Han Lingyan's answer was very inadequate.

"The status of the eldest prince is precious, if it is within the scope of the little girl's duties, she will definitely serve well, but unfortunately, the little girl has no obligation to talk to the eldest prince, if the eldest prince is bored, I think this Tianjing has someone who wants to accompany him."

After speaking, he didn't wait for any reaction, so he called Cai Wei loudly.

"Miss."

Cai Wei was obviously startled when she saw Han Lingyan in the house, she didn't expect that someone else in the house had come in, but she didn't know anything.

"The eldest prince has gone to the wrong place, you should lead the way, besides, the cup on the table was accidentally soiled just now, smash it and throw it away!"

After giving these orders, Duanmu Qing brought a polite smile, "The eldest prince walks slowly, the little girl still has something to do, so she won't be far away." ”

The corners of her lips were slightly curled, and the woman seemed to be very interesting, and no woman had ever spoken to him like this.

"Don't you want to know what my real purpose is for coming today?"

Stopped, Duanmu Qing didn't look back, "I don't want to know." ”

Since the last incident, she has been very repulsed by this man in her heart, and this feeling is very strong, as if she has never had such a strong feeling except for the hatred of those people.

It seems to be a kind of uncontrollable for him.

The first time I saw him, he saved his life.

The second time I saw him, he saved his life again, and there was an accidental kiss.

He has always been a cynical character, always with a playful smile, but it makes her see his cold side.

Let her discover his disguise.

Consciously, she kept herself away from him.

Maybe it's because the purpose of her rebirth is too clear, and she doesn't need accidents in her life, let alone any accidents to stop her.

She had to keep her distance from him until she could figure out the man.

"You don't even want to know about your mother?"

Suddenly turning his face, Duanmu Qing's gaze shot towards him like two sharp swords, cold, ruthless, without a trace of temperature.

And she made Han Ling curl the corners of her lips, it turned out that this was her death point.

Neither of them spoke, as if they were waiting for the other to speak first, and as if they were competing with each other.

Finally, Duanmu Qing waved his hand and motioned for Cai Wei to retreat.

The smile in Han Lingyan's eyes overflowed.

"What's the matter, let's talk about it!" Ignoring his eyes, Duanmu Qing's expression was serious.

"I thought you would be very interested in your mother's affairs, but I didn't expect you to have such an attitude."

Looking straight at him, she didn't want to bother with it.

Shrugging his shoulders, Han Lingxian finally put away his smile, "Aren't you curious, why is it that your father has never given her medical consultation for so many years even though your mother is seriously ill?" ”

Duanmuqing didn't speak, of course she was strange about this matter, but Qiu Tian told her very clearly, life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, she is not afraid of life and death at all, and she doesn't like to see a doctor very much.

She thinks that her father, like her, cannot beat her mother.

"Do you think it's your mother's character?" Han Ling raised his eyebrows and looked at her in a condescending manner.

This made Duanmu Qing very uncomfortable, especially when he said something that seemed to be something he knew but she didn't know.

Her silence was a kind of acquiescence, Han Lingyan did not continue to hang, and said: "As far as I know, your mother had a cough when she first came, and she could see that she was not lightly ill, and she was very hindered from entering the door at that time, especially at that time, the Duke of Qi was already powerful, and it was imperative for the queen to be canonized as the middle palace.

And the agreement reached between the Yongding Marquis Mansion and the Qi State Mansion is that Li Ningshuang is still in the position of an aunt, and your mother can only live as she is, that is, how long can she live. ”

Duanmu Qing's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it, in the previous life, he didn't care about himself and his mother's entry into the mansion at all, and in this life, everything he knew was told by others.

Every time she makes a new discovery, she is surprised, and this time, she is even more shocked.

In this way, the mother was indirectly killed by the Yongding Marquis Mansion?

"That's why your grandmother indulged your mother in every way, and never forced her to do anything.

And the Duke of Qi and Li Ningshuang both think that your mother will only last for two years at most, she is dead, but she just left a girl here, who knows that she has always been like this, and it will not deteriorate if it does not get better, so ......"

"So?"

Duanmu Qing intuitively felt that Han Lingxi's words seemed to say that there were other reasons for Qiu Tian's death.

Sitting back in his seat, taking a sip of the already cold tea, Han Lingxian continued, "They killed her." ”

"You're talking nonsense." Duanmu Qing immediately said, "This is impossible. ”

Reborn in a lifetime, she was determined to save her mother's life, so in addition to persuading Qiu Tian to see a doctor, she also checked all the things she eats and wears on weekdays, just for fear that someone will poison her.

But nothing was found, and Qiu Tian's death did not have any warning.

"Are you sure?" Han Ling raised his eyebrows, but his eyes were full of affirmation.

Duanmu Qing looked straight at him and didn't speak, as if he was expecting something, and as if he was afraid of what he said.

"Have you ever noticed the bed where your mother sleeps?"

"It is made of pineapple wood soaked in white orchid juice mixed with water, and it has nothing to do with it every day, but it is absolutely impossible for someone like your mother to have a cough, and this bed, your mother sleeps for ten years."

Duanmu Qing felt his fingers tremble.

From her rebirth to the present, she has always felt that her task and purpose is to protect herself and the people around her.

With the prophetic ability to focus on life, no matter what, you will no longer let the people around you be harmed.

But she didn't expect that the world around her was darker than she had imagined, and the jade pendant on her chest that her mother gave her suddenly became very heavy, so that she couldn't even breathe smoothly.

Han Lingyan looked like this in front of her, her face was full of forbearance, but her eyes were like water, but deep self-blame and hatred were intertwined, so thick that it seemed that she was about to knock her down.

I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in my heart, but at this time, he didn't know how to speak, so he could only be silent.

After a long time, Duanmu Qing cleaned up his emotions, and his face returned to his usual light and light face, "I don't know why the eldest prince told me about this matter?" How do you know? Don't tell me it's because you like to follow things in our house. ”

"Why doesn't Qing'er think I'm doing this for you?"

Han Lingyan suddenly approached, and his condescending posture almost encircled her into his arms.

Duanmu Qing raised his head, the two looked at each other, the other party's breath could be heard, and it fell on each other's faces, and there was a burning sensation.

Looking at the bright eyes in front of him, as clear as water, it seemed to reflect the souls of others, and the long eyelashes were like two resting butterflies, at this moment, Wan Lai was silent, and Han Lingyan inexplicably felt a moment of panic.

"I don't think the eldest prince will be so short-sighted." The words that come out of the delicate and small lips do not carry a little warmth.

Han Ling's expression was stunned, then he took a few steps back and laughed, "Qing'er, don't be presumptuous, in my eyes, you are the most beautiful scenery in the world." ”

After saying that, he strode away, as if infinitely proud.

It wasn't until he went out that Cai Wei hurriedly walked in, and at a glance saw Duanmu Qing standing there, his face pale.

"What's the matter?" After coming back to his senses and slowing down his expression, Duanmu Qing turned his face and asked.

"Someone from Xianyun Pavilion said that the second lady sent all the spices sent in from outside today and threw them out."
