Chapter 5: Dreaming
Xiao Mingyu, who was asleep, slowly opened his eyes and sat up.
It's this dream again.
He lost count of how many dreams he had.
It's that woman in every dream.
At first, he thought it was just an ordinary dream, but it wasn't until he met Song Tinglan after Xiao Tingyu got married that he realized that his dream was not accidental.
But he only glanced at it more.
A woman didn't take much of his effort.
Later, he discovers that the events in his dreams overlap with reality.
It's not so much a dream as a foreshadowing.
It's a pity that it's all related to Song Tinglan.
He speculated that what he dreamed about was what Song Tinglan was about to experience.
This dream is more useful, but he still has no interest in Song Tinglan.
Until, he accidentally learned that Song Tinglan fell off the cliff.
However, in the dream, she did not fall off the cliff, but met the prince, and after returning home, she was ridiculed and coldly scolded.
Suddenly, he became interested.
He suddenly wondered if this woman knew something in advance, so he would rather fall off the cliff than go to see the prince.
Therefore, he prevented the prince from entering the mansion and met with Song Tinglan in person.
However, she is smarter than she was in the dream, and she did not reveal anything.
Xiao Mingyu looked out the window, and a bright light was already visible in the distance.
The sky was already getting brighter, and Xiao Mingyu poured himself a cup of cold tea.
The faint scent of osmanthus remained on the tip of his tongue, and he chuckled.
"She'll be here soon, though."
————
Lan Yuyuan.
The sky was bright, and Song Tinglan opened his eyes.
Thinking of last night's dream, she couldn't help but shudder.
She can't figure out how she had so much courage in her previous life to provoke Xiao Mingyu and drugged him.
She wanted to escape at that time, but the only one who could compete with the prince at that time was Xiao Mingyu.
She knew that the prince was obsessed with her, so she firmly believed that as long as she pulled Xiao Mingyu into the water, Xiao Mingyu would save her for self-protection.
Now that I think about it, he is a commander of the pacification department, and he has seen countless drugs, how could he be put down by her with a handful of sweat medicine.
Presumably she was deliberately lured into the bait!
And she thought she was in control of it, and almost took her own life.
Thinking of that night, she was ashamed and hurriedly dressed and left, not thinking about why there was no one outside his door.
"Madam, there's a message from Jade Xuan for you to come over."
Tian Xing saw that Song Tinglan was awake, and entered the door to serve Song Tinglan and said.
Cui Yuxuan is the courtyard of the eldest lady Wen.
I'm going to pass the word at this time, presumably yesterday's matter has reached her ears, but I don't know if it's her matter that she wants to ask, or Xiao Tingyu and Pei Nianqing's matter!
However, Song Tinglan is not interested in any of these, and the top priority now is to take care of his body.
She tried to take two steps with the help of Tian Xing, but she didn't feel uncomfortable, so she lay back with confidence.
"You went back to the eldest lady, and said that my body has not recovered and I can't walk, so I can't go today."
Tian Xing nodded and went.
A moment later, Sweet Apricot returned.
With her, there was also a soft sedan chair.
An hour later, Song Tinglan lay down on the soft couch of Cuiyuxuan.
Xiao Tingyu sat beside her, while Pei Nianqing was kneeling on the ground.
In front of her, Wen is not angry and arrogant, Wen Yuhua.
Wen Yuhua was wearing a dark cyan brown bamboo dark pattern long skirt, a gold-inlaid jade gilt jewel hanging around her neck, and two gold hairpins on her head.
Whether it is the coarseness of the golden hairpin or the ruby inlaid at the top of the golden hairpin, it all tells everyone that her ...... Status.
"Tell me, why did you go to Lanyu Courtyard yesterday."
Wen Yuhua spoke, with a proud posture.
"Yesterday, I learned that Madame went to the prince for medicine for me......"
Pei Nianqing's face was pale, his eyes were red, and he immediately explained.
"Heh-" Wen snorted coldly, "You can fool my son with this, you can't fool me!" You know what kind of heart you have, but you shouldn't dare to put the reputation of our government at ...... risk."
"Mother, Nianqing is simple and doesn't understand these ......"
Xiao Tingyu interrupted Wen Yuhua's words.
"Shut up!" Wen Yuhua sharply interrupted Xiao Tingyu's words, "I'm asking Pei Nianqing, are you Pei Nianqing?"
Xiao Tingyu, you are the son of the Guogong Mansion, and now you don't even want the status of the Guogong Mansion for this woman? ”
Wen Yuhua scolded angrily, his chest rising and falling because of anger.
"If I hadn't heard the news in time today and dealt with the two people with broken mouths, otherwise the whole of Kyoto would have known now that you actually asked the dignified princess to dance to the prince for medicine for a widowed woman!
You're so ridiculous! ”
"Mother." Xiao Tingyu explained, "You know the mother, Nianqing was forced to marry back then, and she did not lose her ...... to others."
"Bastard!"
Seeing that Xiao Tingyu's words were getting more and more outrageous, Wen Yuhua interrupted Xiao Tingyu's words and turned his head to look at Song Tinglan.
Song Tinglan now has no expectations for Xiao Tingyu for a long time, and when he heard this, he just snorted coldly, and said directly: "The prince is really affectionate to Pei Nianqing, which is touching, why don't you directly accept her as a concubine, and it can be regarded as her reputation?" ”
"No way!"
Song listened to Lan's words, Xiao Tingyu and Wen Yuhua refused at the same time.
"This woman is a widow, how can she be a concubine of Tingyu! I will never allow her to defile the lintel of my government! ”
Pei Nianqing raised his head sharply when he heard this, and then quickly lowered his head, and the cruelty that flashed in his eyes quickly hid in the shadows, so fast that no one noticed.
And Xiao Tingyu didn't speak, but Song Tinglan heard clearly.
Pei Nianqing seems to be weak, but in fact he is arrogant, and he will never be a concubine.
This is also the main reason why Pei Nianqing wanted to get rid of her in his previous life, and Xiao Tingyu also understood this, so he didn't say a word after Wen Yuhua said this.
But Pei Nianqing opened his mouth tremblingly.
"The eldest lady Mingjian, Nian Qing is fortunate to be protected by the Guogong Mansion, and she has no intention of being a concubine for the prince.
It's a pity that Nianqing is weak and fortunate to be pitied by the prince, so that he can live peacefully until now, but he didn't expect that it would affect Mrs. Shizi, and today it almost affected the reputation of the Guogong Mansion, which is Nianqing's fault.
So begging Mrs. for mercy, Nianqing is willing to think about it behind closed doors in the house, pray for Mrs. Shizi's blessing, and pray for Mrs. Shizi's body to recover as soon as possible. ”
Wen Yuhua snorted coldly.
"Behind closed doors?"
"You think beautifully!
Just by what you have done today, it is light to drive you out of the house, I should have thrown you into the Qinglou, so as not to let you make such a foxy appearance every day to seduce me! ”
Pei Nianqing raised her head suddenly, knelt down and hurriedly kowtowed: "The eldest lady is gracious, all the mistakes are my fault, and please don't throw me into the Qinglou." ”
Pei Nianqing was really scared.
Because she knows Wen Yuhua, although she is said to be poor, rude and rude, and likes money and gold to be mundane, she always puts the honor and disgrace of the Guogong Mansion first.
No matter who it is, as long as it damages the national government, she will definitely not forgive.
Pei Nianqing finally got Xiao Tingyu's heart, and at this time, he must not fall short and be driven out of the house.
She cried and kowtowed, knocking the floor so hard that she finally fainted with her eyes closed.
