Chapter 221
Chang Ying stared at the back of his head for a while, then leaned over to return the salute: "Your Highness, you are welcome. The officer just did what he should do."

Yang Su straightened his waist, looked at Changying's face, and saw that he was as calm as a mirror. Thinking about it, he said: "The general used troops to amaze the audience that day, which made Xiao Wang deeply admired. Xiao Wang would like to ask the general to have a cup of tea in the side hall. I don't know if it's a reward?"

How could Changying not show respect?He is the emperor's precious son.

She saluted and came down.

Yang Su's eyes were bright, and he turned and walked towards the east side hall.

The side hall is not a hidden place, but a small hall separated by a screen, so it is destined to be impossible to say anything personal.

After Yang Su came in, he turned around and looked at Chang Ying, and cleared his throat, "How are you doing these days, General? I just finished the errand of bad food, and I haven't had time to worry about other things. After today's banquet, I will visit the General's residence."

He asked softly, "How is it?"

Changying glanced at him, but said nothing.

Seeing her like this, Yang Su felt a little anxious, and wanted to explain to her on the spot that there were so many people in the hall, and there was no need for people to hear and be suspicious.

Changying inhaled slowly, and said, "Your Highness is so caring, so I will wait for you as an official."

Yang Su's heart fell to the ground, and he nodded firmly at her.

Ling Yuan didn't want to embarrass Changying, he didn't plan to meet her in person, he went out when he knew she was in the Hall of Preserving Harmony, and came back when he heard about what happened in the hall.

When he entered the door, he saw her who had finished talking with Yang Su. He glanced at Yang Su, and he closed his eyes and said, "Your aunt is here too. She is in Kunning Palace. Would you like to visit her?"

Changying took advantage of the situation and walked out.

After leaving the Hall of Preserving Harmony, I looked at the sky, it was still early for the banquet.

Remembering that Mrs. Ling is here too, I can't hold back my heart.

Back then, she was brought back from the northwest by her aunt, and she slept next to her for countless nights in those years, how could she not miss her?

It's just because she didn't have the courage to step up the threshold of the Ling family, and she didn't dare to touch every plant and tree in the Ling family.

Now that the person is so close at hand, even if she can't go up to see it, she still has to wait and see from a distance, right?

She stood up and went to Kunning Palace.

Changying attended as an official, and attracted many people's attention along the way.

There is no queen in the palace, and today the whole palace has been cleaned up and used as a banquet hall.The high-ranking female relatives went to the harem to accompany the queen mother and talk to the ladies, and the rest were only second- and third-rank wives.

Everyone here is familiar, Changying asked Zixiang to take a look inside, Zixiang said that he was not there, so she planned to find a place outside the hall and wait until she came.

"Shen Ying?"

Walking to the shade corridor, someone came in front of me.

Changying raised her head, and it was Qin Xiyun who came. She hadn't seen her for four years, and her appearance had changed a lot. She was considered a pretty figure among ladies before, but now in this early autumn weather, she has thick hair covering her forehead, and her expression is ruthless. With a vicious air of prey.

Calculated, she is only eighteen or nineteen years old, but she is like a resentful woman who can't get ahead in a deep boudoir.

"It's really you!" Qin Xiyun snorted softly, showing a sneer.

In fact, Changying had nothing to say to her, and it wasn't really any great enmity.Strictly speaking, the conflict back then did not reach the point of enmity, and after so many years, it is impossible for Changying to miss her anymore.

But she knew that Qin Xiyun would definitely not think so, Ling Yuan came out for her, and now that she is no longer in the Ling family, how could Qin Xiyun still have scruples?
"Not yet married?" Qin Xiyun looked at her, "That's right, who dares to marry a white-eyed wolf like you?"

She giggled as she spoke, her voice shrill and raspy.

Changying felt that there was no need to talk to her, and turned to leave, but she grabbed her and said, "You want to leave now?!"

Changying turned her head and looked at the wrist tightly grasped by her.

"Mrs. Hu!" Before Chang Ying could say anything, a deep voice suddenly sounded in front of her, and the beautiful lady walked up to her and looked at her, "Mrs. Hu, the Ling family's affairs are handled by the Ling family. I don't need to trouble you." care.

"It's not caused by General Shen that your life is like this. Instead of complaining about others, it's better to have a good husband and raise children in exchange for a safe life for the rest of your life."

Qin Xiyun looked at the person in front of him with a red face, gritted his teeth and left.

Changying couldn't restrain herself, the person who came was none other than Madam Ling, her aunt!
The memories that had been deliberately closed in Changying's heart suddenly surged up like a surge, her knees softened, and she knelt down: "Auntie!"

Madam Ling looked at her kneeling in front of her, slowly bent down and took her hand, turned her palm over, and put two candies in it.

It's two croissant candies from the imperial dining room.

Changying entered the palace for the first time at the age of five, and when she saw the nobles in the palace, she was so frightened that she dared not walk, so her aunt took two croissants for her to hold, and said that as long as she thought about delicious food in her heart, she would not be afraid .

Later, she was no longer afraid, but every time she entered the palace, my aunt would still remember to bring her two croissants.

Memories are the most tormenting. No matter how firmly you seal up bad emotions, you can't resist the sudden warmth.

She shivered and peeled off the sugar coating, put the sugar in her mouth, and raised her tearful eyes.

"Aunt, aunt..."

I haven't seen her for four years, she is already old, her temples have a little gray hair, her originally bright eyes have dimmed a lot, and she is only a year away from turning 40 years old.

She was a beauty in Datong Mansion, and Changying still vaguely remembered that her mother often told her that her aunt was the arrogant and delicate swan goose in the Northwest Army Camp.

Four years ago, this goose was obviously still delicate and naive, but in just four years, she has become a lonely goose that was left behind.

Changying couldn't stop her tears, and the candy in her mouth made her cry incomplete.

Madam Ling clenched her hands tightly and did not speak, but the knuckles and palms turned blue and white due to the force.

Ling Yuan left the Palace of Preserving Harmony and arrived at the corridor. He saw Changying crying in front of Mrs. Ling from a distance. He stopped and stood for a while, then walked over and said, "There are so many people in the palace, and today is another good day for King Jin." , don't say any more."

Madam Ling stared at Changying for a moment, then bent down to pull her, but Changying shook her head and refused to move.

Madam Ling burst into tears.

Ling Yuan squatted down: "The bell is obedient."

Chang Ying wiped her tears and raised her head, kowtowed to the ground three more times before getting up.

Mrs. Ling was carried back to Kunning Palace by He Lu.

Changying didn't turn around until she was out of sight.

Ling Yuan handed her the handkerchief, she shook her head, took out her own handkerchief from her cuff to wipe her face, and then took a deep breath.

Ling Yuan looked around and remembered that the Chinese Army's Governor's Mansion was just outside the Daqing Gate, so he simply said: "It's not far from the Chinese Army's Yamen, there is still some time before the banquet, so go and get your makeup done first."

Chang Ying followed him to his office, Guo Jiao sent someone to fetch water, and Zi Xiang twisted the handkerchief to wipe Chang Ying's face.

Ling Yuan sat and watched from a distance across the Bogu shelf, through the hollowed-out shelf she saw her applying eye powder on the other end, this scene seemed familiar yet unfamiliar.
