One hundred and thirty fourth chapters hand in hand
In the border town, Ling Jiyun and Gardenia have been missing for almost half a year. During these six months, Situ Ling and Feng Qing used all their connections to find the location of the Lost Forest, but they could never find the slightest trace, as if they were lost in the forest.
Zonglin disappeared out of thin air.
Now they only hold on to the last glimmer of hope, praying that the two of them will not return to the Lost Forest.
Ling Jiyun disappeared, and the border city lost its main focus. Although Situ Ling and Feng Qing tried their best to cover it up, they still could not stop the good guys and others from talking. Seeing that the country they had won was about to return to Zhao, Situ Ling
She was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and hated Gardenia to her core.
The flowers in the garden were in full bloom again, and a few flying butterflies were flying among the flowers, playing back and forth, but this joy did not infect the people lying on the rocking chairs in the garden at all.
There was only a touch of sadness between her eyebrows that could not be dispelled no matter what. There was no trace of emotion on her pale face, and there was a little moisture in the corners of her eyes from time to time. After Ling Jiyun and Gardenia disappeared, Lian Ruoyi
It became like this.
Did she ever think that Ling Jiyun only loved Hua Zhiniang from the beginning to the end, but she never thought that they would disappear together. Did they elope? This question has been bothering her for months, and no one even found Situ Ling and Feng Qing.
After hearing the news, Mizonglin disappeared out of thin air, so isn't the hope of his coming back almost slim?
Xuexiang sighed secretly and walked towards Lian Ruoyi with a pot of hot tea. She never understood why the young lady's infatuation with the prince for so many years was not as important as a daughter of the world? The prince broke the young lady's heart and made the young lady live all day long.
His eyebrows were furrowed and he was unhappy, and he couldn't help but resent Ling Jiyun's lack of affection.
"Miss, I have brewed another cup of tea. You can try it." Xuexiang said with a smile. The lady was not happy. She wanted to try her best to let her happy mood infect her. Although she knew it was futile, it was better than doing nothing.
.
Lian Ruoyi shook her head gently, and Xuexiang continued: "Miss, how about my servant accompany you for a walk."
Still did not express his position, and after a long time he spoke softly: "Is there any news about the prince from Mr. Feng?"
Xuexiang was stunned for a moment, then said: "Miss, don't worry, there is no news yet, but I think it will be soon, so don't worry, the prince will definitely come back."
I can't remember how many times Xuexiang comforted herself. At first, she deceived herself and held out hope, but now she has become accustomed to it.
Did the wind that just blew by blow my thoughts to him?
Aoran City——Imperial Palace——
In the imperial study, Ling Jihua was secretly happy that Ling Jiyun's disappearance had left the invincible Chong army without a leader.
After closing the memorial of victory sent from the front, Ling Jihua's face was radiant. Knowing that Situ Ling and Feng Qing were now eagerly looking for Ling Jiyun's figure, he would take advantage of this time to take back the lost cities one by one.
Give those rebels a chance to breathe.
The eunuch changed into a cup of tea, Ling Jihua stood up and flicked the sleeves of his bright yellow robe, standing in front of the window with a heroic look, looking at the blue sky. His heart felt a little bitter, Ling Jiyun left behind what he had been striving for for Hua Zhiniang.
Everything, including the country at his fingertips, he lowered his head and sighed. If it were him, I would probably be alone for that special woman. He calmed down and said to himself: "Gardenia, should I thank you?"
Border Town——Study——
With a 'clang--' sound, the broken-flowered porcelain cup touched the ground by an angry Situ Ling. In an instant, tea splashed everywhere and the cup turned into pieces.
"I'm so angry, I'm so angry." Situ Ling walked back and forth.
Feng Tianlai stood aside calmly. Although Mr. Situ was not as fearful of people as the prince when he was angry, the consequences of his anger were not as bad as those of the prince.
"Three of the nine cities we have worked hard to win have been taken back by Emperor Tingyan. If this continues, won't they be returned to others in vain?" Situ Ling roared, venting his dissatisfaction and hatred towards Ling Jiyun.
The anger of missing for no reason.
"Master, if you calm down, there will be something you can do?" Feng Qing tried his best to comfort him, but he was not anxious at all.
Staring at Feng Qing, Situ Ling said: "Calm down, can you calm down this anger? The morale of the troops in each city is weakened and shaken, and half of the country they conquered will be handed back to others. How can I calm down this anger?"
Feng Qing remained silent, maybe it was just like what Situ Ling said, everything he and Ling Jiyun had worked so hard to do was about to go down the drain.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Situ Ling asked again: "Have you found the location of the Lost Forest?"
Feng Qing cupped his hands and said: "I have invited Mr. Xiu Baisheng, a well-known fortune teller in the world. He is studying the location and topography of the Lost Forest. I believe there will be results soon."
"Tell him to hurry up, we can't wait much longer." Situ Ling said impatiently.
"Yes, master, I'll go right away." Feng Qing bowed his hands and stepped back, a trace of eagerness flashing in his eyes.
After Feng Qing left, Situ Ling slumped down on the stool, holding back his anger and clenching his fists.
The sun was setting in the west, and the sunset reflected the criss-crossing streets in the mountain village. The green seedlings in the fields swayed gently with the breeze, and two long shadows on the field ridges happened to pass by.
Putting aside the distractions of the world, living in this unconcerned village, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, is a very comfortable and interesting experience. It's a pity that I lack this leisure and have no ambition to do so. Some people are a bit uneasy.
Things can't be tolerated and I can't stand idle.
Ling Jiyun held Gardenia's waist and pointed to a field next to her and said, "Did you see that these growing seedlings were planted by me?" As he spoke, he suddenly felt very proud and held the seedlings in his hand.
Then I planted them in the fields one by one. I never thought I would enjoy this kind of fun so much.
Seeing his arrogant look, Gardenia Wan'er smiled and said, "What fun do you have now? Your real achievement will not be until you harvest the rice in autumn."
Ling Jiyun nodded in agreement and said with a smile: "I originally wanted you to reward me, but it seems you don't seem to believe that I can grow rice, so I'll have to wait until autumn before you reward me."
Gardenia caressed her swollen belly, facing the rays of the setting sun. It was so moving that Ling Jiyun couldn't help but be stunned. As she continued walking, Gardenia noticed his fiery eyes and said slightly stunned: "Husband, what's wrong?
?”
"Well——." Ling Jiyun shook his head and said, "It's okay, I just found that my Gardenia is becoming more and more charming recently."
"Qianzui." She patted his chest gently and snuggled into his arms, Gardenia smiled happily.
After walking in silence for a while, Ling Jiyun stopped and said, "It's time for us to go back. Today is the village chief's seventieth birthday."
Gardenia nodded and said, "Yes, let's go."
The two of them turned around and headed back in the direction they came from. Gardenia blinked her eyes and suddenly laughed out loud. Ling Jiyun asked inexplicably: "Gardenia, what's wrong?"
