Who says maids don't fall for the city

chapter 14
In the next second, the blood in Cheng Feng's eyes receded, and he gradually returned to clarity.He walked up to Ling Wu and said, "Master Ling Wu, I Chengfeng has never asked for help in this life, but today I ask you to help my sister. As long as you are willing, I will give you whatever you want."

It wasn't until then that Ling Wu's eyes revealed some interest, and he asked, "Will you give me everything I want?"

Cheng Feng was stunned for a moment, and said firmly, "As long as it doesn't harm me, Daye, you can do whatever you want."

Turning her purple eyes, she looked at me quietly, "I want her."

I froze.

"I only want her." Ling Wu repeated again, "As long as you give her to me, I will help you persuade the eldest princess to let her eat."

Cheng Feng obviously didn't expect him to make such a request, and just stared at me blankly for a moment.After a while, he finally sighed. "Qing'er, I'm sorry. Eldest sister is a very important person to me."

I froze and couldn't speak at all.If it was said that I was robbed by Chengfeng at the beginning, I was angry and a little sad, but I knew in my heart that he was not a bad person, and he would not really hurt me.So I can always stay in Xiaoyuan.But although Ling Wu has no ill intentions towards me, he is from Muyun Country after all. If I follow him, I will definitely leave Daye, and I don't know where I will go.Besides, he was just a stranger to me after all.

I didn't speak, neither did Cheng Feng, the air was so silent that water dripped out.

There is apology in Cheng Feng's eyes, but it is more worried about Cheng Yue.I don't know how long it took, I pulled the corner of my mouth stiffly, "Okay."

There are thousands of feelings in my heart, but I know that I can't refuse to help Chengfeng.Maybe I dug my own grave, if I didn't find Ling Wu myself, I wouldn't have to face the current situation.

Cheng Feng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and he looked at me seriously: "I owe you today, and if there is an opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay you." Then he turned to Ling Wu: "Is it okay now?"

Ling Wu nodded, and called out: "Qinyue."

A qin boy holding a guqin came up behind him, and the others didn't know where to find tools, but in the blink of an eye, the qin case was set up and the incense burned.

He walked to the back of the piano and sat down, stroking the strings with both hands.Without thinking too much, the moonlight-like piano sound flowed out.For a moment, it seemed that the whole world lost its color, only music existed and danced.

Through the sound of the piano, it seems to see a pair of lovers watching the dusk together.Every pore on their bodies exudes a taste of happiness, and their smiles are like the most beautiful painting in the world, priceless.

But for some reason, the two became one, standing alone in a corner where the moon couldn't shine in the dark night.Her expression was depressed and full of despair.The man's soul was standing beside her, but she couldn't see it.

If one day I leave you, then you must continue to live well.As long as you have me in your heart, then we are still together, no one or anything can separate us.

I want you to know that my biggest dream is that you can be happy.Even if it's not because of me, as long as you're happy.If one day we meet again, no matter whether you are still the same as when we first met, I will still recognize you at first sight, and love you dearly.

Please take good care of yourself and wait for the moment when we meet again.

The lover's face gradually disappeared in the rainy night, and when his face turned cold, he realized that his face was full of tears.But these tears are not bitter, but with a kind of happy expectation, as if waiting for the appearance of the hit person.

The sound of the piano gradually diminished and finally stopped.

The whole courtyard is quiet.

The next moment, the door of the Buddhist hall opened with a "squeak", and Cheng Yue appeared at the door with a pale face.The maidservant greeted her with a cheer, and Cheng Yue showed a slight smile to this side, and in the next second, she collapsed in the maidservant's arms.

Ling Wu turned to me with a calm expression: "Let's go."

Cheng Feng has already rushed towards Cheng Yue, so he can't care about me.He couldn't help but smiled wryly, "Okay, but I still have to go get some things."

I always carry the earrings Cheng Yu gave me, but Feng Guanxia is still in the room.No matter what, the thing was given by the princess, so it's not good to lose it.

Ling Wu nodded, "I'll wait for you at the main entrance."

So I went in the direction of Xiaoyuan.Chunhuaqiuyue were all busy with their own affairs, and they didn't speak when they saw me coming back.It was Fugui who came up, "You don't look very well, what's wrong?"

I shook my head and said, "It's okay. It's just that my family is here to pick me up, and I'm leaving. Take care of yourself in the future."

Although she is in the princess mansion, she is a servant after all, with a low status.He heard from me that my family had come to redeem me, thinking that I would be freed from slavery, so he was also happy for me.Immediately after saying a few words of blessing, he was busy telling everyone the news.

I smiled wryly and continued to walk towards Chengfeng's house.I found a piece of cloth to wrap the wedding dress, and left without looking back.

The road was tortuous, asking people to the gate of the princess mansion.A navy blue carriage was parked in front of the door. A man named Qinyue waved his hand when he saw me, and helped me into the carriage.As soon as the curtain was lifted, Ling Wu leaned against the wall and closed his eyes slightly, as if he was a little tired.

I looked back at Qinyue suspiciously, and he said softly: "Master is very tired every time he plays the piano, he needs to take a rest."

I nodded and sat down next to him lightly.Qinyue put down the curtain and sat with the coachman.The carriage moved slowly.

I saw that Ling Wu seemed to be fast asleep, so I didn't bother him.Slightly turned to the side and lifted the corner of the curtain, watching the carriage getting farther and farther away from the princess mansion.It was a place where I wanted to escape but couldn't escape, and now I leave but feel a little sad.

"Don't you want to leave?" An elegant voice came from beside my ear, I was startled, and the car curtain fell.Turning around, I saw that Ling Wu, who was still asleep just now, was staring at me with a pair of purple eyes. "If you really don't want to leave, I'll let you go back."

go back?What are you going to do?
I smiled lightly: "It's not that I don't want to part with it, it's just that I'm a little melancholy."

He frowned, "If it's not reluctance, why would you feel melancholy?"

I thought about it and replied: "This melancholy is not about this place, but a kind of sentimentality about the change of things and people."

I don't know if he understood, but he didn't ask any more.The tiredness between his brows and eyes became more and more serious, and he finally fell asleep.

Not long after, the carriage stopped.Qinyue called softly from outside the car: "Young Master, we're here."

I looked sideways at Ling Wu and saw that he was still asleep, so I lifted the curtain and got out of the car lightly. "He's not awake yet." After finishing speaking, he began to look around, only to find that the carriage had left the city at some point.Now we are in front of a temple outside the city. The incense here is not very strong, so it is relatively quiet.

Qinyue understood, and didn't bother to urge her, just stood quietly waiting for Ling Wu to wake up.I think this is a bit ridiculous, so I wake him up and go to the temple to sleep again.You can see Qinyue's waiting posture, as if she is doing something very important.So I was too embarrassed to bother him, so I followed him and stood still.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and Ling Wu didn't wake up until all the lights in the temple were lit.

A group of people entered the temple, and the abbot hurriedly asked someone to make some food for the sake of money, and then each of them arranged a room for each room.

I tossed and turned, but couldn't fall asleep anyway.

The moonlight came in vaguely through the window, forming a bright color on the ground.Insomnia is the most painful thing in the world.He couldn't sleep, so he put on his clothes and got up, and walked to the window.

Open the window, a bright moon is in the sky.

Every time I see the moon, I think of Cheng Yu.It has even become a curse.What I think in my heart is that if you treat a person as something, as long as you see that thing, you will think of that person.Cheng Yu is like the moon.

High above.

My heart suddenly felt a little sad again.

With a flash in the corner of his eyes, he saw a black shadow flashing across the flowers and plants.Confused, he hurriedly opened the door and followed.But he saw that black shadow came to the outside of Ling Wu's room without stopping.Maybe it's because he slept for so long in the afternoon that he doesn't feel sleepy now. Through the open window, he can see Ling Wu holding a roll of music score and looking at it under the light.

The black shadow hid behind the tree, staring at Ling Wu bewilderedly.

The back is so familiar that I can easily remember who she is.She was in front of me reminding me to move when I was dancing that day, so I remember it very well.

But why did she come to peek at Ling Wu in the middle of the night?
Thinking of her obsessive gaze that day, does she like him in her heart?
Can't help but sigh, Ling Wu's indifferent gaze that day had already announced the end of Wu Yi.

"Who?!" Wu Yi shouted sharply.

I didn't expect her to be so vigilant, and she noticed me even if I sighed slightly.

Just as he was about to resign himself to his fate and stand out, Ling Wu pushed the door open for some reason and came out, standing quietly, frowning slightly. "How did you come?"

Wu Yi's body froze, and she slowly turned around, stuttering even when she spoke. "I, I just want to see you."

She used honorifics, and Ling Wu took it for granted.I don't know what is the relationship between them.

Maybe it was the effect of the moonlight, Ling Wu's complexion looked very bad. "Go back and tell the master, I have my own measure."

Wu Yi's complexion was even worse, she opened her mouth, as if she wanted to justify something, but in the end she didn't say anything.He just lowered his head, and said in a bitter voice, "Yes, this servant understands. I just ask you to return to Mu Yun as soon as possible, the master is waiting for you."

Ling Wu nodded lightly, "I'll leave tomorrow." After speaking, he entered the room without looking back, and closed the door behind him.Then he went to the window and closed the window too.

Leaving Wu Yi sadly alone, she walked slowly after a while.

I didn't breathe a sigh of relief until her shadow completely disappeared.Doubts gradually arise in my heart, master?Who is the master in Ling Wu's mouth?Is there anyone in this world who can subdue such a person who looks like a banished fairy?

And according to what they said, Ling Wu would set off for Mu Yun tomorrow.After leaving like this, I don't know when I will be able to come back.

With a thought, I was in the princess mansion because there were many guards, so there was no way to escape.But now in the wilderness, it shouldn't be difficult to leave!
Thinking about it this way, the plan in my heart gradually took shape.Seeing that it was almost dawn, I hurried back to the house, took my bag and went out quietly.Maybe Ling Wu didn't expect that I would leave, he was not wary of me just like Qinyue who had been by his side for many years.Although I felt sorry for him, I never promised to be by his side.So I can only use his trust and escape from him.

I met a few night watchmen along the way, but I avoided them all without any risk, and finally left the temple gate safely.

Hurrying slowly, he finally arrived at the gate of the city before dawn, and went straight to Prince Yi's mansion as soon as the gate opened.

During the time I was in the Princess Mansion, perhaps because I was isolated from the outside world, I didn't hear any rumors about the Wang Mansion or Yang Ziyu looking for me.But now that I have escaped from all control, the place I most want to return to is the palace where I have lived for 16 years.

When I walked to the front door, I found that the gatekeeper had changed, and I didn't know him.After thinking about it, he walked forward in a familiar way, ready to enter the door naturally.Unexpectedly, he was stopped.

"Don't let the idlers rush in, be careful and lose your life!" A soldier looked at me with raised eyebrows.

I smiled apologetically: "Brother, I'm a maid in the mansion. I left the mansion for some errands a few days ago, and I just came back." As I said that, I turned to show him the burden on my shoulders, "It must be because of this, so You haven't seen me."

Xiao Bing frowned and looked at the other person, "Do you know her?"

The man shook his head, "I haven't seen it either, why don't we go ask someone first."

"Alright," he said and looked at me, "What's your name?"

I quickly thanked him, "My name is Ji Qing'er, and I live in the son's room. I'm sorry to trouble you, little brother."

The little soldier who stopped me nodded, turned around and went in.Not long after, he came out again, waving my hands and driving me out, "Go, go! I don't know where the wild girl came from, how dare to pretend to be the girl Qing'er who is next to the son?!"

I didn't know what happened, so I defended loudly: "I didn't impersonate, I am Qing'er!"

Xiaobing raised his eyebrows: "People in this house say that Miss Qing'er has been married for several days, you pretended to be without first inquiring, I'm afraid you don't want to live!" He walked up to me and drove me out.

I stopped his hand, "There was an accident on the day I got married, I was arrested by the gangsters, and I managed to escape today! If you don't believe me, please call Aunt Zhao, she will testify for me!"

He was angry: "You still want me to be scolded?! The princess said that she went to see Miss Qing'er yesterday. She is staying at her husband's house. Where did the villain come from?! Go away! Otherwise, don't blame me You're welcome!"

The little soldier pushed hard with both hands, and I staggered and fell to the ground.The palm of my hand was heavily contused on the slate, but I couldn't feel any pain.The whole person seemed to have been petrified, and the words he had just heard echoed in his mind.

The princess said that she went to see Miss Qing'er yesterday, and she is staying at her husband's house...

Princess, why do you want to say such a thing?

Could it be that a woman who looks exactly like me married into the Yang family instead of me?

Puzzled, he looked up at the imperial plaque with the words "Prince Yi's Mansion" written on it, and then at the soldier with a vicious expression.

I probably won't be able to go back today.

But the sky is still bright, why don't you take advantage of this time to visit Yang's house, if someone is really pretending to be me, I will make her go all the way!
After making up his mind, he struggled to stand up and headed out of the city.I went to the house that Yang Ziyu rented once before. Although I took a sedan chair, I lifted the curtain to have a look, so I still remember the general direction clearly.

But when they found the place, it was already empty.Only an old couple was left looking at the house.

According to them, Yang Ziyu and his adopted brother's family left as early as the night of my marriage.He was in a hurry when he left, as if he had something very urgent to do.

I suddenly felt powerless, and quickly asked: "Did you welcome the bride that day?"

The old man shook his head, "The sedan chair was delivered, but there was no one in the sedan chair, only a few big rocks. But Mr. Yang was frightened to death, and he led people all the way back, but there was no one there. He originally wanted to stay and continue looking, but his elder brother tried to persuade him to go away."

At the end, he added, "The little girl who brought the sedan chair also cried to death, and almost hit her with a stone. In the end, it was my good wife who stopped crying and went back to her life."
