Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 238 Take You to Climb a Mountain (Third Watch)

Ji Wuyan went out of the Yamen and got into the carriage. The carriage left slowly and turned into a side intersection. After walking for a long time, it barely stopped.

After a while, Gucuo came back and shook his head at Ji Wuyan.

After all, the suppressed memorial was not found.

Song Yuanqing has his own mansion, but he seldom returns to live in the mansion, most of the time he lives in the backyard of the yamen.Originally, I was only holding a glimmer of hope, so I can't say whether I was disappointed or not at the moment.

"But I saw an interesting thing." Gucuo said while pouring tea, "Guess?"

Where does this come from?Ji Wuyan rolled his eyes, didn't guess, and ignored him, just looked at him with unkind eyes.

The ancient house was bored, hehe smiled and didn't care, and handed her the teacup in his hand, "Ye family... Ye family is thinking of marrying Song Yuanqing this time."

"Huh?" Ji Wuyan was really surprised. She held the teacup in both hands and didn't drink it. The Sima family's precious lump, the family can be regarded as a match. This Song Yuanqing...Although he can be regarded as a hot young talent in the court, but it is really nothing more than that...The gap is a bit big, Ye Miss Jia heard that she has an arrogant personality, can you agree?"

Ye Wanru is notoriously arrogant. There are not many ladies in Yanjing who she puts in her eyes, so there is only one girl who has been friends with her according to the rumors - You Lingxi.

At that time, she didn't even bother to talk to Yang Shaofei, and she didn't pay much attention to the rumors about him and Lily.

This Song Yuanqing, can she be happy?

"So what if you don't like it... The Yang family said she was Kefu." Gu Cuo also sighed in a rare way, seeming to empathize with her, "Even though most people know in their hearts that this is just the result of the Yang family's anger. If you want to add a crime, but when the matter has nothing to do with you, you can still sigh or sympathize, but if it falls on yourself, you would rather believe it than believe it... Therefore, Miss Ye Jia wants to find someone who is right ……Disaster."

From holding the teacup to resting her chin, Ji Wuyan listened with great interest. After listening, she shrugged nonchalantly, "If it were me, I might as well not get married. The sea and the sky are vast and the mountains are high and the water is far away. Trapped?"

The old house smiled and shook its head, "No matter how wide the sea is, only the rain can swim freely; no matter how empty the sky, only birds can fly. How can a young lady who grew up in these aristocratic families be the same as you wild monkey. If Miss Ye really left Yanjing City, I am afraid that within a few days, I am willing to come back obediently and get on the sedan chair."

There was a bit of ridicule in the words.

I am used to the days when clothes come with hand and food comes with mouth, I am used to the pomp and circumstance, I am used to the convenience brought by power and wealth, so I also lost some ability to survive.

Or, between wealth and freedom, they would rather choose the former.

Ji Wuyan could understand, but she couldn't understand, probably just like she did back then, she couldn't understand Shangguan Yuan's determination.It's just that Shangguan Yuan still has at least a heartbeat in her heart, even if she fights the fire, she won't hesitate. What about Miss Ye Jia...

She smiled and didn't take it seriously, "Even if Ye Wanru agrees, Song Yuanqing can't say... This marriage is difficult."

Song Yuanqing's arrogance is not inferior to Ye Wanru.The pride that is based on ability, I don't want to marry Miss Ye's family to make my talent and hard work look like the fruit of clinging.

Thinking about it, Gu Cuo nodded, "That's right. If it doesn't work out, I'm afraid Mr. Song's place will be in chaos, so we can..." Fishing in troubled waters.

The two looked at each other and smiled, outside the curtain of the car, the old house where he was driving shivered suddenly, he shrank his neck, thinking how could it be so cold in this early autumn day?Could it be that those two inside are plotting something bad again?
……

White House.

This is the first time Lu Jiangjiang has visited Bai's house after the two broke up unhappy. It has not been a few days since he wandered around the door and "met" Li Yuqi last time.

He stood at the door and hesitated for a long time, but he still didn't make up his mind to let people pass it on—Lu Jiangjiang never thought that the first mission the prince gave him was to ask Baixing to climb a mountain.

"Lu Jiangjiang?" The voice behind him was Bai Xing. He came back from the outside, wearing a white robe with a jade belt around his waist and a white jade crown in his hair.He looked at Lu Jiangjiang, a little surprised, "Why are you here?"

Looking at his purple clothes, he used to feel imposing, but now for some reason, standing in front of Bai Xing always feels a little short.He looked embarrassed and hesitated, but Bai Xing had already led him in, "Go in if you have anything to say."

Bai Xing's calm and composed appearance made Lu Jiangjiang feel a little panicked in his heart at that moment.It's as if the other party has forgotten the unhappiness in the past, and only I am brooding and tormenting myself.

Walking awkwardly all the way into Bai Xing's yard, the general appearance is still the same as before, but the subtleties are different.

For example, in the pond where the fish were raised before, there was nothing left at first glance, no lotus, no fish, not even a single leaf.

Seeing him staring at the pool, Bai Xing understood immediately, and explained with a smile, "I was thrown into the barracks by my father, and practiced for more than a month... When I came back, they were all gone. Those little maids didn't take good care of them... Simply ask someone to clean up the pool. How about it, it looks good?"

Lu Jiangjiang nodded absently, without reminding Bai Xing that most of the fish were put in by himself.

I just sat in the yard, served tea, and the maids retreated. Lu Jiangjiang didn't think about how to speak for a while, looked around, pointed to three or two pots of orchids that were growing well under the porch, and greeted, "When do you like it?" Such an elegant thing?"

"That's it! It's just arty." As he said, Bai Xingxing went over to look at it, touched the leaves that looked very energetic, shook his head and laughed, "I saw that the old house was not bad that day, and it was blooming. The flowers are also beautiful, so I thought about asking for a few pots, but when they came to me, they never bloomed again..."

As he said that, he met the other party's eyes, paused slightly, and said, "You know the ancient house, the steward of the Ji family."

Naturally I recognize it.Lu Jiangjiang nodded silently, the last bit of hesitation in his heart was gone... This yard seems to be the same as before, but the traces belonging to him are gradually decreasing, and more and more belong to other people.

Like the relationship between them.

He watched Bai Xing set aside those pots of orchids and walked back, took a sip of the tea in hand, and suggested, "No, let's go hiking in two days."
