Chapter 123: Lingering

It was the first time that Lu Zhongyang saw the fifth prince's sad look, but he was thinking about other things in his heart at this time, and he didn't say anything, just poured two glasses of wine, picked up one, and drank it all.

The fifth prince sighed again, picked up the wine, and drank it all.

At this time, the person who was sent out came to report, "Your Highness, the fourth highness, there is indeed a guard in their room, and the wine has also been drugged. The masked men are all missing, and their owners are looking for them, but they haven't been found. And also...... That thing...... Lost ......"

"What?" The fifth prince was shocked when he heard this, but then he calmed down.

Seeing him hugging his shoulders and frowning, Lu Zhongyang stepped forward and asked softly, "What did you lose?" ”

The fifth prince looked back at him with a frown, and asked rhetorically, "What's wrong with your throat?" ”

"It's probably a wine ......" Lu Zhongyang hurriedly covered it up, but fortunately, the fifth prince was facing too many things now, so he didn't care. I heard the fifth prince mutter, "On the stage just now, the fourth brother and the gang fought for the thing that came back to life and lost it...... The gang is also missing...... Did they steal it? ”

Lu Zhongyang was curious, and was about to ask again, but someone came in to report the news. The person who came only took a folding fan and handed it to the five princes, who took the folding fan, smiled contemptuously, and then got up and left.

Lu Zhongyang couldn't help but be shocked when he sat there, he had seen the person holding the folding fan, and the deferential attitude of the fifth prince at that time explained the identity of the man...... Why did he come here?

It had been three days since Xiao Lingxiao woke up. She felt that her hand seemed to be being held in a daze, and finally opened her eyes and looked down, and saw Xiao Fengming looking haggard with panda eyes, but her expression was surprised and happy, she smiled and said softly, "I'm finally awake." That voice was low and hoarse, as if it could hit people's hearts at once, which made people feel distressed.

Xiao Lingxiao struggled to get up, held her head and frowned and asked, "What's the matter...... she remembered that she had become the fourth prince and was going to grab the stone that the divine wolf said...... Later, I don't know why, but I fell unconscious as soon as it got dark......

Turning his head to look at Xiao Fengming again, Xiao Lingxiao suddenly understood. She summoned the Divine Wolf and asked in a deep voice, "Divine Wolf, what the hell is going on?" ”

Just like what the divine wolf told Xiao Fengming before, as long as Xiao Lingxiao came to ask it, it was impossible not to tell Xiao Lingxiao the details.

After Xiao Lingxiao heard the details of the divine wolf, she took out the cloth bag from her arms and took a closer look at the two stones.

The room was quiet, and the pins could be heard.

Xiao Fengming's heart was churning, how much he wanted to tell Xiao Lingxiao that he would protect her and would do his best to find the soul crystal that fell in this world. However, looking at Xiao Lingxiao's deep eyes, Xiao Fengming suddenly felt that he couldn't say anything. It's not that he doesn't have that determination, it's not that he doesn't have that ability, but at this moment, he realized that he couldn't say things like "you will definitely get better, you will definitely be fine".

Heartbroken, Xiao Fengming clenched his fists tightly, his nails sunk deep into his palms, and blood flowed down his fingers and dripped onto the footstool.

But just when Xiao Fengming slowly lowered his head, he heard Xiao Lingxiao's laughter. Smile lightly, as if you see a flower bloom and see a drop of rain fall.

Xiao Fengming raised his head suddenly, looked at Xiao Lingxiao, saw that she was holding the two stones in her hands, turned her head to look at him, and said softly, "Just go find something like this, right?" What's so hard about this. ”

Xiao Fengming was stunned when he heard this, but saw Xiao Lingxiao stretch out his hand and pat him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Look at what scared you, it's not that you have some terminal illness that can't be cured, isn't there still a way to save it?" What's more, with such a piece of 'saliva', this symptom has not occurred for a long time, and if you add the current stone, won't it last for a long time? During this period, if you find other soul crystals, you will get ......"

As she spoke, she turned to look at the Divine Wolf and asked, "Divine Wolf, don't you have a way to search for this Soul Crystal?" It's like ...... ...... like 'Soul Crystal Radar'"

Hearing this, the divine wolf shook his head violently, "No, no, if the soul crystal was so easy to find, I would have found it for you a long time ago......"

"It's useless." Xiao Lingxiao joked.

The divine wolf glared, "I am a dignified divine wolf, how can it be useless!" ”

The two sang and laughed for a long time, and Xiao Lingxiao didn't seem to care much about it.

But after Xiao Fengming left, the smile on Xiao Lingxiao's face disappeared all of a sudden. The divine wolf turned back to its original form and lay on the bed to make her cushions, Xiao Lingxiao leaned comfortably on the divine wolf, closed her eyes, and the two talked in a dark voice.

Xiao Lingxiao didn't show anything unusual in front of Xiao Fengming because she was very distressed when she saw Xiao Fengming so haggard. At this moment, she is like being judged to be suffering from a serious illness that will be fatal at any time, to say that despair is not enough, but to say that it is easy, it is absolutely impossible.

Xiao Lingxiao let out a long sigh and asked the Divine Wolf, "If I had died, it wouldn't have cost you so much effort." Divine wolf, why do you recognize me as Lord? Why did you save me then? ”

After a long time, the divine wolf spoke, "I am attracted by your soul to recognize you as the Lord." This is the number of days in the underworld, only the mighty sage can know the heavens and the earth, although I am a wolf, but not the mighty sage, I don't understand the number of days. It is my duty to protect your soul, and perhaps after a few lifetimes of reincarnation, the Heavenly Dao will be able to know it. ”

Xiao Lingxiao smiled lightly when she heard this, what kind of life counts the Heavenly Dao, and how many lives will it take? She doesn't know these mysterious things, and she doesn't want to delve into them, if her life really takes several lifetimes to know, then no matter how hard she tries to explore it now, I'm afraid she won't be able to explore it.

And what Xiao Lingxiao cares about even more is the powerful sage that the divine wolf said. In the past, the divine wolf always looked proud, and it was always the only one in heaven and on earth, but today it said that there is a more powerful existence above it. Xiao Lingxiao knew that the divine wolf must have been frustrated because of her affairs.

Xiao Lingxiao raised her hand and touched the head of the divine wolf, which could be regarded as comforting it.

Xiao Lingxiao recovered quickly, and she was fine when the Chinese New Year was approaching. However, the situation on the eldest lady's side is getting worse, Bao Rong'er inquired through the maids and mothers-in-law in the eldest lady's yard, since Xiao Lingxiao took out those champas full of foul language that night, Xiao Shuyong went over from time to time to ask the eldest lady. The eldest lady refused to admit that she was dead at first, but her body was weak after the miscarriage, and Xiao Shuyong did not let people treat her, and finally the eldest lady became crazy because of the high fever. The eldest lady personally admitted that she had an adulterous affair with Su Donghan for more than six years, and naturally there were also those things she did to Xiao Lingxiao.

Xiao Shuyong only knew at this time why Xiao Lingxiao was blind in the first place, he was originally a smart person, and at this time, recalling the pain that Xiao Lingxiao endured back then, as well as the things that happened after Xiao Lingxiao came back to life, Xiao Shuyong inevitably felt guilty.

After that, Xiao Shuyong was also shocked to learn that Xiao Lingxiao was poisoned by the old lady at the beginning. In this way, Xiao Shuyong's guilt towards Xiao Lingxiao is deeper. At the beginning, he was bent on killing Xiao Lingxiao, but now that he thinks about it, he regrets it.

Despite all the things that have happened, the New Year in the Prime Minister's Mansion is still lively.

After the New Year, everything seems to be calm again. The only change in the Prime Minister's Mansion is that the eldest lady is seriously ill, and the old lady, who has always been healthy, does not know what illness she is contaminated with, and she is bedridden all of a sudden.

But Xiao Lingxiao didn't care much about these anymore, she heard that Lu Zhongyang had found Zhuo Lan, and Zhuo Lan turned out to be Shang Lingyu, so she was curious to find two people to ask about it. Xiao Fengming really couldn't resist her, so as soon as the New Year passed, he arranged a carriage and horse for her, and took her directly to the deep courtyard in Shang Lingyu.

As soon as she entered the small courtyard, Xiao Lingxiao heard a melodious piano sound, which seemed to have grievances, seemed to have heartfelt feelings, lingering, and wept.

This song seems to be able to stir up the deepest waves in people's hearts, and people can't help but be emotional when they listen to it.

Xiao Lingxiao stopped, her eyes couldn't help but be a little moist, and then a pair of powerful arms hugged her tightly from behind, and the warmth and solidity of this embrace made Xiao Lingxiao's heart warm up again.

"Lu Zhongyang's piano skills are really the best in the world, if it weren't for the deep affection, it would never be like ......this," Xiao Lingxiao whispered to Xiao Fengming, who gently rested his head on her shoulder, "When I met Shang Lingyu for the first time, she once said that she was a surviving person, and the meaning of the three words "surviving person" is that her husband has passed away. Didn't she ever talk to you about anything? ”

Xiao Fengming hugged Xiao Lingxiao's slender waist tightly, leaned into her ear and replied softly, "Shang Lingyu's husband is indeed deceased, and it is precisely because of this that she has not been able to accept Lu Zhongyang's affection. The two have been separated for so many years, although Shang Lingyu knows that Lu Zhongyang has been looking for her, but she has no face to face Lu Zhongyang and has been avoiding. If it weren't for that, how could Lu Zhongyang never find her......"

Xiao Lingxiao heard this and somewhat understood.

The two hugged each other like this until the sound of the piano suddenly stopped.

Xiao Lingxiao patted Xiao Fengming's arm and said with a light smile, "It's heavy enough for a big man like you to press behind me, hurry up." ”

Xiao Fengming pecked her cheek, and then reluctantly let go of his arm.

The two walked slowly in the direction where the sound of the piano came from, but before they could enter the courtyard, Xiao Lingxiao saw at a glance that in the open window in the courtyard, a pair of men and women hugged each other tightly, kissing each other carefully, and the tears were shining brightly, which was particularly dazzling.

Xiao Lingxiao hurriedly pulled Xiao Fengming to stop, and her heart was agitated. Looking back at Xiao Fengming, Xiao Fengming smiled indifferently, leaned over, and kissed her lightly on the lips.
