"Fourth prince, but I already have someone I like."

As soon as these words came out, Meng Xueyuan, who had been keeping her head down, suddenly raised her eyes, and in her big eyes, all the side faces that Situ Qianchen couldn't see any expression were reflected.

Mu Zhen was also full of surprise, his gaze moved to the right, and it happened to fall on Ling Jiantong, who opened his mouth wide, he looked up and down, his eyes couldn't help but squint, this girl saw her feet from her head, her appearance was ordinary, her figure was ordinary, and she was once married to Song Yuan, and the groom died violently on the wedding night, and she was a full Kefu life, and this whole body, just a pair of eyes can barely see the past, this ...... When did Situ Qianchen's vision become so bad?

"General Zhaoyi, I'm afraid you're joking this king, right? If there is really someone you like, then why did the general agree to the agreement in the first place? ”

Situ Qianchen's lips pursed, and he said for a long time: "The fourth prince misunderstood, I grew up with Snow Kite since childhood, I know that the Four Princes' Mansion is not the destination she wants, I promise you, I just want to help her, not the love between men and women." ”

This sentence was really decisive enough, and Ling Jiantong seemed to hear the sound of Meng Xueyuan, who was sitting there motionless, and her heart was completely shattered into pieces.

In fact, Ling Jiantong didn't understand why Situ Qianchen did this, obviously she was worried about Meng Xueyuan in her heart, this person was sent to the door, but she wanted to call back.

Mu Zhen raised her eyebrows, glanced at Meng Xueyuan, who was silently crying, and her voice was cold: "Oh, Xueyuan, what General Zhaoyi said is true?" These four palaces, you really can't stay? ”

Her knuckles were pale, and she grabbed the corners of her clothes on her knees, she didn't understand, that night, Situ Qianchen had personally promised to take her out of the Four Princes' Mansion and protect her for the rest of her life, why now, he was holding another woman's hand in a high-sounding manner, saying that there was someone else in his heart?

"Snow Kite, you have to speak, otherwise, General Zhaoyi really thinks that you have suffered a great sin in the Four Princes' Mansion." Mu Zhen's tail tone was raised, and she was already a little impatient.

Meng Xueyuan closed her eyes slightly and lightly opened her lips: "No." ”

Her voice was slight, but it was extremely clear in Situ Qianchen's ears, and a flash of surprise flashed in his calm eyes.

"No" Meng Xueyuan repeated again, and when she raised her eyes again, her face seemed to be replaced with a fearless expression: "General Zhaoyi misunderstood, I stayed well in the Four Princes' Mansion, and my husband treated me like a pearl in the palm of my hand, and I didn't have half a point of unwillingness." ”

Ling Jiantong felt Situ Qianchen's body tremble slightly, his eyes were complicated, and the look seemed to be about to rub Meng Xueyuan into the depths of disbelief.

The corners of Mu Zhen's lips hooked: "General Zhaoyi, can you hear it, this is all a misunderstanding." ”

"Snow kite, ...... you" Situ Qianchen frowned, and was about to say something, but Ling Jiantong on the side took the first step to hold his arm, and chuckled: "Qianchen, it's getting late, the wine of the fourth prince is really intoxicating, I'm tired, let's go home." ”

Situ Qianchen ignored Ling Jiantong, his heart was now all on Meng Xueyuan's body, and in his eyes, he could no longer tolerate others.

Could it be that she really couldn't see that he was helping her out of the fire pit?

The scene was so deadlocked, and Mu Zhen got up in time to start a round: "Since General Zhaoyi has something else to love, then our previous agreement will be null and void?" ”

"No" Situ Qianchen's tone suddenly became tougher, no matter what today, he also wanted Mu Zhen to let Meng Xueyuan have a way to live, and give her a free body.

"Qianchen, you're drunk, Brother Qiannan is still waiting for us to go back in Zhenguo Mansion, you know, he's not in good health......" Ling Jiantong tightened Situ Qianchen's arm, for fear that if he was angry, he would turn the Four Princes' Mansion upside down regardless of the consequences, which would be very unfavorable to the Situ family.

Xu mentioned Situ Qiannan, and Situ Qianchen's angry gaze eased slightly, but he looked at Meng Xueyuan, looked at the tears in the corners of her eyes, and under his sleeves, his five fingers were clenched, and he was really unwilling in his heart.

Mu Zhen stood there, like a wait-and-see who had nothing to do with himself, he gave Situ Qianchen two ways, one way was to take Meng Xueyuan to leave the Four Princes' Mansion, and from then on, the Situ family would return to his command under Mu Zhen, and the other was that Meng Xueyuan stayed in the Four Princes' Mansion, and Mu Zhen would torture her doubly.

"Qianchen, let's go." Ling Jiantong kept whispering to Situ Qianchen, and it was not until finally, his stiff arms slowly relaxed, and Ling Jiantong pulled him out of the Four Kings' Mansion.

For the sake of the Situ family, he couldn't take risks after all.

Under the candlelight, it was already cold vegetable leftovers, Meng Xueyuan sat on the chair in a daze, never moved a bit, her entire back was cold, and it was not until Situ Qianchen left that she relaxed a little.

Mu Zhen walked to her side, bent down and stared at her eyes a little desperately, and sneered: "Meng Xueyuan, I didn't expect that you are quite smart, in order to protect Situ Qianchen, you can even throw away the only chance to be free, and you are ruthless enough to yourself." ”

Meng Xueyuan's eyes stared ahead for a moment, and she smiled indifferently with a little sadness: "Mu Zhen, your wishful thinking has failed, he Situ Qianchen has already changed his mind, I, Meng Xueyuan, am no longer a chess piece that binds him, you let it go." ”

"Let go?" Mu Zhen smiled: "Meng Xueyuan, don't even think about it, even if Situ Qianchen doesn't love you anymore, it is impossible for you to leave the Four Princes' Mansion, you are my princess, it's too late for me to love you so much, how can I really give you up to others?" ”

Meng Xueyuan had tears in her eyes, and looked straight at Mu Zhen like this, he was a devil, a demon who had lost his conscience!

"Are you happy when I'm dead?"

When Mu Zhen heard this, there was no ups and downs, but he reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of Meng Xueyuan's eyes, and then put them in his mouth, he closed his eyes slightly, full of enjoyment: "Xueyuan, aren't you already dead?" I just like to see you live worse than dead, and only with this look can I be happy. ”

With that, Mu Zhen reached out and picked Meng Xuekite on her shoulder, and strode towards the backyard.

Leaving the Four Kings' Mansion, Situ Qianchen seemed to have lost all his spirit and was silent.

Ling Jiantong was really worried about him, so he opened his mouth to comfort: "General Situ, the snow kite girl must know your hard work, there must be a reason why she said that." ”

"I know." After all, they grew up together since childhood, and each other's thoughts can be understood with just one look.

"You...... You know? Then why are you so sullen? Ling Jiantong looked at him, and his frowning brows became the word "Chuan".

"I just blame myself for being useless, I don't even have a chance to save her from the Four Princes' Mansion, I can only watch her suffer in the Four Princes' Mansion."

This is indeed a difficult problem, Meng Xueyuan is now the fourth princess, and it is really more difficult to take her out of the Four Princes' Mansion openly than to ascend to the sky.

Ling Jiantong, who has always had the most ghost ideas, was also like a deflated balloon at this time, and he had no idea at all.

Situ Qianchen looked sideways at the dejected Ling Jiantong, and his expression changed slightly: "Thank you Miss Ling for today's events." ”

"Huh? It's okay, actually, I'm glad I could help you. Ling Jiantong rubbed his hands together and replied with a grin.

Under the moonlight, the shadows behind them gradually lengthened, and the empty streets and alleys were quiet, and only their staggered footsteps could be heard.

"General Situ, I would like to take the liberty of asking you a question."

"Miss Ling, please speak."

"That...... Do you still love Snow Kite? If one day Snow Kite really regains her freedom, will you marry her? ”

This was a question that had been bothering Ling Jiantong's mind for a long time.

Situ Qianchen pondered for a long time before replying: "This is what I owe to Xue Kite, I will help her and protect her, but I can't love her anymore." ”

"Huh? Why? Didn't you all get to the point of talking about marriage before? Could it be that it was because the snow kite girl had married Mu Zhen in the middle? ”

"That's not the case, my father was still in the Zhenguo Mansion before, and everything in the Situ family was still carried by someone, but now that my father is gone, my brother is sick and weak, and the secret fighting in the court is getting worse day by day, in this case, I can't give Snow Kite happiness, I don't want to burden her."

Ling Jian's eyes dimmed, and suddenly, she thought of what Ye Zhengbai told her that day, the woman Situ Qianchen was going to marry in the future must be the daughter of an official eunuch who could help him, and there were too many things on his shoulders, which were not something that her little Ling Jiantong could share.

However, she was not reconciled.

If you want to love, you must love vigorously, otherwise, it is better not to love.

"General Situ, I have a reluctant request, and I ask you to promise me." Ling Jiantong plucked up all her courage and spoke.

Situ Qianchen stopped and looked at her face to face.

"Tomorrow night is the Lantern Festival in the capital, I helped you today, so can you spare a night tomorrow to accompany me to visit the Lantern Festival, even if it is to invite me back to the favor, I ...... I have something to say to you. At the end of Ling Jiantong's words, his head involuntarily lowered, looking at the vamp looming under the corner of his clothes.

"Okay, tomorrow evening, I'll wait for you at the east end of the market."

Without the slightest hesitation, Situ Qianchen agreed in one bite.

Ling Jiantong blinked a little incredulously, and after making sure that it was not a dream, she jumped up happily, she stretched out her little finger and said, "Then let's pull the hook." ”

"Retractor?"

Ling Jiantong pulled up his right hand, and his small thumb hooked his tail finger: "The hook is not allowed to change for a hundred years, stamp!" ”

Fingers are close to each other, and the promise has been fulfilled.

Although Situ Qianchen was still a little confused, it did not affect Ling Jiantong's joyful celebration at all, she jumped forward, Situ looked at his little thumb sincerely, and then smiled helplessly, and then kept up with Ling Jiantong's pace in the distance.
