Guo Wanrou's words contained warning and arrogance: "Leng Changxi, please listen to me. According to the etiquette and laws of Young Master Yuan's wedding, the main wife cannot take concubines within half a year. And a hundred days later, he
You have to observe mourning for three years, and you cannot get married during these three years. After three years, do you think you still have the capital to enter the Zhao family? Let me tell you, as long as I am here, you will never even think about entering the Zhao family in your life!
It’s a concubine or a servant, it’s impossible!”.
Leng Changxi remained motionless after hearing this, looking at her coldly, as if looking through her again, not knowing where she was looking. Such tranquility, like air, would disappear at any time. Lingfeng was panicked in his heart.
It was not because of Guo Wanrou's words, but because of Leng Changxi's demeanor. He clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth and glared at Guo Wanrou.
Guo Wanrou glanced at him coldly, with a proud look on her face, and snorted: "By the way, let me tell you that the emperor has set a wedding date for us, which is the 25th of next month. You are welcome to come to An'an then.
Watch the ceremony! Oh, by the way, it seems that it is inconvenient for you to show your face in Lin'an. I heard that the emperor seems to intend to make you the princess and marry Wan Yan and Ci! That's really congratulations!"
When Lingfeng heard this, his eyes flashed with fierceness, and he asked in a vicious voice: "How did you know this?"
Guo Wanrou glanced at Lingfeng with disdain, said nothing, turned around and left, leaving behind a smug look on her back.
Although Lingfeng was suspicious and wanted to catch up and ask more carefully, he couldn't trust Leng Changxi, so he could only watch Guo Wanrou walk away angrily.
"You..." Lingfeng turned around and looked at Leng Changxi with a worried expression. He wanted to comfort her, but didn't know how to speak.
Leng Changxi's gaze moved faintly to his face, and she smiled slightly. That hollow smile made Lingfeng feel as if she was suffering from heartache.
"I'm fine, let's go back." After saying that, Leng Changxi walked back directly.
Lingfeng followed her, carefully looking at her lonely back, and suddenly had the urge to hold her in his arms. However, he did not have the qualifications, so he was lucky to be able to guard her silently like this.
After returning to the courtyard, Leng Changxi went into the room. After closing the door, her legs softened and her whole body slid down the door. She sat on the ground with her knees bent, hugging her legs with her hands, and buried her head between her knees.
, as if she was protecting herself, but what was she protecting? She had nothing left. A sneer overflowed from the corners of her lips. She should have felt sad, but there was not a single tear in her eyes.
It turned out that the pain was so severe that I had forgotten how to heal.
Lingfeng, who was shut out by Leng Changxi, stood quietly, his eyes fixed on the door panel, trying to see through it, his eyes anxious, with heartache, with resentment, with unwillingness, with
Reluctant to give up. I clenched and unclenched my fists at my sides, unclenched and clenched them again. I tried to step forward again and again, but pulled my feet back.
When Lingshan went out and came to Leng Changxi's door, this was what he saw.
She frowned, not knowing what Lingfeng wanted to do, and she was slightly worried in her heart. She was afraid that Lingfeng's thoughts could not be hidden and would cause trouble to Leng Changxi. Then she would have really failed the Leng family's entrustment and such
Years of care.
"Lingfeng, why are you here?" Lingshan stepped forward and asked softly.
When Lingfeng saw Lingshan, he hesitated to speak. He looked at the door, then at her, then turned and left.
When Lingshan saw this, she felt a sudden shock in her heart. She knew that her brother's eyes were obviously telling her that something had happened to Leng Changxi. Immediately, Lingshan followed Lingfeng into the rockery in the yard, eagerly
He said: "What's going on?".
"It seems that Mr. Yuan is getting married, but the new bride is Guo Wanrou." Lingfeng lowered his head, a flash of pain flashed in his eyes, and clenched his fists.
"What?" Lingshan was shocked by his words and cried out. He grabbed Lingfeng's arm and said in a deep voice: "Can you explain clearly, what's going on?".
"I'm not very sure. I woke up this morning and found that she was not in the house, so I went out to look for her. I met Guo Wanrou in the front yard. From what the woman said, it seemed that Mr. Yuan had proposed marriage to the Holy One, but it was just for her and Mr. Yuan.
The emperor agreed to the marriage, and also ordered that the marriage be completed on the 25th of next month. After the prince's funeral, Young Master Yuan will leave Xiuzhou and rush back to Lin'an to get married."
"Then, what should I do, young lady?" Lingshan's eyes widened in shock, his mind went blank, his hands pinched Lingfeng's arm tightly, and he was so panicked that he didn't know what to do.
"Sister, to be honest, I'm so worried about her. I don't know what happened before, but her expression just now was as indifferent as a gust of wind. She will leave at any time. She is too quiet, so quiet that it makes me feel bad. I always feel
, I always feel that she, she will..." Lingfeng was also confused, his distress was clearly expressed on his face, and his whole body was trembling. He was really afraid, afraid of what she would do if she couldn't think about it. This thought weighed him down.
Almost collapsed.
After hearing what he said, Lingshan became even more worried. But looking at Lingfeng's appearance, Lingshan didn't dare to reveal her panic at all, for fear that even she would be confused and Lingfeng would really collapse.
.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. We don't know what the situation is yet. Let's figure it out first!" Lingshan gently put his arm around Lingfeng's shoulders, patted his back to comfort him, but his eyes drifted towards Leng Chang anxiously.
Xi's door.
This is not a trivial matter. Her young lady is already Zhao Yuan's. She thought that it would be a matter of time before she got married. She had been planning with great interest what things to prepare for Leng Changxi. But in the end, she died halfway.
Chen Yaojin comes.
"Sister, I'm going to find Zhao Yuan to find out. If he really dares to betray her, I won't be done with him!" Lingfeng felt heartbroken when he thought of Leng Changxi's appearance. How can he care about his dignity? Whenever someone bullies Leng Changxi
Xi, he always has to stand out.
Lingshan was afraid that something would happen to him at this juncture, and it would be difficult for Mr. Leng and Mrs. Leng to explain it, so he stopped him: "Don't worry, the most important thing now is to watch the young lady and don't let her go."
I will go find out what happened to her, Mr. Yuan. Don’t be impulsive! If something happens and causes trouble for the young lady, it will be difficult to deal with."
When Lingfeng heard what Lingshan said, he could only suppress his anger and nodded gently.
"Okay, come with me to see the lady." Lingshan sighed silently, patted Lingfeng's back gently, and led him to Leng Changxi's door.
"Miss." Lingshan gently knocked on the door: "Miss, would you please open the door?".
Leng Changxi in the room was immersed in her own world, rejecting Lingshan's call.
Time passed quietly, but she always maintained this posture, motionless, her heart was empty, her mind was empty. The pain was heartbreaking, but she could not shed a single tear.
