Return to Evian Court (Part II)
Lian'er's tone was quite flat: "I went in, but I went to Yuling's room, she was still recuperating from her injuries, and she was naturally happy to see me, but I didn't want her to worry about me with any more injuries, so I didn't tell her anything." β
"No wonder I said that girl looked at me so strangely the next day."
Lian'er sneered: "Who made you so tender and left your heart lady?" β
"You know that's not what I meant."
"I know that you can't do anything to a woman who has a marriage contract with you." Lian'er took a deep breath, she knew that her husband had shown pity to this woman. There are really things that she can't control. Xinjie knew that she was still haunted by the events of that night.
"I was indeed waiting for you that night."
"Wait with your lady heart, what do you expect me to show up for? Robbing her husband with her? Or let her go out and tell me I'm alive? β
Xinjie didn't know how to express it: "You know I didn't mean that, she was kind, but she was afraid that I would be sad to comfort me." β
"Oh, is it? Is she comforting you, or are you comforting her? Or does she feel that I am dead and that she is taking advantage of the opportunity to fully comfort you physically and mentally? His wife's acerbic tone surprised him, something they hadn't seen since they'd met. You can not attack her, you can not say cruel things to her, but you don't want to hug her to comfort yourself, people have already taken the initiative to dedicate themselves to the wide clothes and untie the belt, why should you refuse? Actually, you really don't have to worry so much, it's the woman you carried through the door, and asking her directly is the best comfort for her. β
Xinjie looked at her with a surprised and sad look: "You were in the house at the time?" β
"Don't be so surprised, I'm not going to be within a hundred paces without you noticing. I don't have to be in the house to see it, you don't close the courtyard door, the shadows on the window and her loose dress, you can see it from many angles. Not only did I see it, but many of the people in Aokien also saw it. β
"Believe me, I just can't bear to see her so sad. She said at the time that she had to become Fu Dalong's pawn, and was forced to marry, if I didn't want her, Fu Dalong would use more despicable means to force her. She just showed me the marks on her back that had been burned by Fu Dalong, and she didn't mean anything else. I just saw that she was so sad and pathetic that I couldn't bear to be too her, after all, she had been with us for a while. β
Lian'er pushed him away impatiently: "You can't bear to see her sad, which means that you are not sad enough, and you still have the heart to comfort her." That's why she's got her people out to track me down. β
"It was my mistake."
"It's not a mistake, it's your nature. The amorous third son. β
"What do you think? Because of that, you returned to Aokien and left knowing that I was waiting for you and wouldn't show up? β
"I didn't leave, Yuling and Zhou's mother took care of me and stayed in the small study for three days."
"I went back every day for the past few days to wait for you, why didn't you come to see me?"
"What day will your tender lady not show up in those days?"
Xinjie was very helpless, Fu Xinshu would follow him every day for the past few days, and he would not say ugly words to women since he was a child, let alone be rude, Fu Xinshu was cheating, he was very helpless This is also a fact, but except for the first day, she asked to rest on the kang outside, and he was inconvenient to drive her away, and he asked the guards to take her back to Yumen in the next few days.
"If it weren't for the suspicion and the study, I would have stayed forever, there are not many places in this world that I can go, and it is my home after all."
"It'll always be your home."
Lian'er didn't want to dwell on this topic with him, so she took out some volumes from the drawer of the dressing table: "This is the handwritten note of your uncle who took it from the old mansion when you returned to Beijing from Jiangnan, and there are some music scores in it. During the three days I lived in the small study, I read through his notes and the scores. These pieces should have been written before he disappeared, and no one outside should play them. β
"Probably not."
"These two songs are very sad, very contradictory and struggling, especially when I first watched them, I was in a very bad mood, so they resonated very much, and I remember them very well."
"Lian'er." She knew what he was trying to say, and she stopped him with a gesture: "I was surprised to hear someone play today. β
"Today?"
"Yes, this morning, when I passed by Tsing Yi Lane in Beiyuan."
"You said my uncle was still alive, and you heard him play this morning?"
"Just a guess. But I think it's a lot like that. I asked you to come today to tell you. β
"Then why don't you go to me, but let me come here and tell me?"
"What's wrong with coming here? At most, your lady thinks that you have committed a flower heart again, and came out to look for flowers and ask willows. Of course, if she loses her temper and burns down Evian, I will consider myself unlucky. Today I'm going to tell you about this and Yihe. I haven't seen your uncle, and I guess there aren't many people in the capital who know him, except for the old servants of your old mansion and your older brothers. Only you or your eldest brother can arrange this.
And then there is Yihe, according to Xifeng's situation, they should be going to do it soon, they should be waiting for the arrival of foreign aid from the Turks. On the surface, he is attached to Yi Heng, but secretly he is more prepared than Yi Heng may be. He has been hiding himself in a low-key manner for so many years, and people up and down think that he is a stunned prince, and no one guards against him. There are also old courtiers like Qi Feng to help, no matter whether we doubt whether it is really Lord Qi, but as long as that person stops in the court, his protΓ©gΓ©s will be called by him. And with the backing of the Xifeng camp and the foreign aid of the Turks, it is really well prepared.
But the other party also knows that no matter whether that Lord Qi is true or not, we will all think of Qi Feng's twin brother Qi Xian, who is the owner of Jiangnan White Feather Villa, and we will all think of Xin Maoyuan and other forces under White Feather Villa will also move with it. If I hadn't recognized Yihe, even if we knew that Baiyu Villa was involved, because we didn't understand the connection, we wouldn't have done it for a while. Therefore, the other party is to cover up Yihe, so he will do it in Yuxian Nunnery. I just didn't expect to kill the wrong person.
Of course, there is another possibility, someone deliberately pretended to be Lord Qi, so that when I saw the flaws, I would think that it was not his twin brother who was pretending to be Lord Qi, so as to drag Baiyu Villa in. But then I figured out that the Queen Mother and her grandmother had known each other for decades with the Qi brothers. Grandma has been in the rivers and lakes for so many years, she can make her trust, but she can frame her, and there are not many people who control her, but people like Qi Xian are easier to do than others. And he goes to see his grandmother every year, and with his grandmother's familiarity with him and his grandmother's shrewdness, he will definitely not recognize the wrong person. That can only show that it was really Qi Xian who did it, and it was not someone else who deliberately blamed him.
Now that we have determined that it is Qi Xian and Yi He, it will be easy for us to deal with Xifeng's side. You also have a request to go out to check Xifeng. Restrained him as soon as possible, so as not to wait for him and Yi Heng to attack at the same time, it will be difficult for us to deal with it at the same time. I think the day the Turks enter the city, that's when your people should do it. is also monitoring Xin Maoyuan's movements, they should be shooting at the same time. β
"Yes, this is what Yiyi and I have been waiting for. Grandma is right, Lian'er is our first military division. β
"That's all I have to tell you, go back."
"In such a hurry to get me away?"
"I've said what I'm going to tell you, I haven't figured out the rest yet, if I think of anything, I'll send someone to find you."
"You're not going home with me?"
"Where is my home?" There was no complaint, no anger, only sadness, which made his heart ache to hear. Since Ah Yilan's incident, what he is most afraid of is her retreat without resentment or anger.
"Lian'er, don't you want to be like this, okay? I just feel sorry for Fu Xinshu, comfort her, she is just a pawn in the hands of Fu Dalong, there is really no other meaning. β
"Sympathy and pity are often the beginning of the relationship between men and women, Third Young Master, you are a master of love, you don't even know this." Lian'er spoke quite indifferently, as if she was talking about someone else's business that had nothing to do with her.
He was angry for a while: "If I were really a master of love, I should know how to please my wife, I wouldn't have so much trouble for her, and I wouldn't be afraid that she wouldn't want me all day long, so that I couldn't live in fear." β
Seeing him look like an angry big boy again, Lian'er knew that she couldn't push him too hard, of course she knew that he was sincere, the reunion just now, his excitement and the kiss of each other's skin, she believed that his feelings were still the same. But with Ah Yilan's experience, she had to remind him. In any case, she herself was too ruthless to torture him for too long. But she has to solve this problem in a better way, and she can't always give Fu Xinshu too much space to play a weakling. Men always blindly believe in their own strength, and involuntarily try to protect the weaker side.
"Am I really bothering Applejack so much?" Of course, the clever husband knew that his wife was once again playing tricks on himself and sounding the alarm for himself. In addition to being able to give her the love of action, he knew that it would be better for him to say less at this time.
"I'm too worried about you being outside, so come back with me. β
"Find the right opportunity."
"And where are you staying during this time?"
"Here, hehe, Evian Pavilion, where the third son often came before he got married, hahaha."
"Are you planning to ruin my reputation again?"
"Where, is there any difference between you coming once and coming ten times? Tomorrow, it will spread all over the capital, and the third prince will start to go out again. What's more, I didn't say that I would let you come, you can clean yourself and love yourself and don't come, but I'm here myself. β
"You stinky girl, you know you're angry with me."
