Chapter 56
Jiang Ling pushed the door open and entered. Su Mei was bowing her head to embroider her purse. There was no sign of anyone breaking into the room. Jiang Ling raised her eyes and asked, "Has anyone ever been here?"

There was a dark layer in the box that Hou Fangqing sent, and there was a note in it, asking her to meet her at Jade Square tonight at Haishi, saying that the shopkeeper Qian would tell her the secret about her life experience.

And Qin Luan will find a way to take her out.

Just now when Jiang Ling came in a hurry, Qin Luan was hiding in the room. When Jiang Ling asked such a question, Su Mei felt her heart beat extremely fast. She put down the sachet in her hand and said with a blessing, "Su Mei has met the general. Only Su Mei is alone, and I have never seen anyone come."

The money shopkeeper of Jade Square refused to tell her the truth, but if Hou Fangqing was willing to come forward, he would be able to ask her some questions.

Jiang Ling came looking for any movement, seeing that Su Mei was fine, she felt a little relieved, raised her eyes and saw the wedding dress hanging on the rack, and asked casually, "Does this wedding dress still fit?"

Su Mei blushed, nodded and said, "It fits well."

In fact, she didn't even touch it.

"See what else is missing? I will live in Luoliyuan when I enter the mansion tomorrow, okay?"

Su Mei nodded and said with a smile: "Just now General Mu sent some more, it's enough."

Although she was just a concubine, Jiang Ling made her ten sets of fine Shu brocade dresses, ten sets of fashionable head and face jewelry, and a box of fine brocade. Mrs. Jiang also chose a pair from her dowry jewelry. The fine jadeite jade bracelet is here.

Jiang Ling nodded and sat down, his slender fingers like bamboo joints knocked on the table, "This general is getting married for the first time and has no experience. You stayed with me for a while, and I will welcome you into the mansion tomorrow." , I don't want to wrong you, if you have any requirements, you can just ask."

Jiang Ling didn't intend to leave, the room was terribly quiet, and the sound of knocking on the table was even more frightening in the silent cold night.

Su Mei felt even more restless, and glanced at the cabinet, flustered.

Su Mei got up and gave a little blessing, "Thank you General, Su Mei remembered."

Su Mei stepped forward slowly, and said with a soft smile, "Why don't Su Mei push the button for the general?"

Seeing that Jiang Ling didn't refuse, Su Mei walked behind him and gently squeezed his shoulders for him. She exhaled slowly, Jiang Ling stared at her, which made her flustered, so she didn't have to face him, Su Mei Immediately, I felt that the atmosphere was not as depressing as before.

"Hou Fangqing went to Shen's house to withdraw the engagement, and asked the imperial court. His father Ning Guogong was so angry that he disturbed the family law and escorted him to the old general Shen's house to apologize. He did not withdraw from the marriage, and the marriage date remained unchanged. It was at the beginning of March. Three, people are also banned in Ningguo Palace."

Su Mei was startled, the movements of her hands stopped suddenly, her heart was about to jump out of her throat, Jiang Ling suddenly mentioned Hou Fangqing, did she notice something, or did she already suspect her?
Su Mei was so nervous that there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, but she was still pretending to be calm. Tonight is her last chance, and she must not give up.

Pressing on Jiang Ling's right shoulder, her hand was a little sore and trembling because of nervousness. She had already heard that Jiang Ling led people into the Yanyun Tower and took away Feng Jie and Fusang. her innocence.

She was still grateful to him in her heart, but this kind of gratitude was not enough for her to stay by Jiang Ling's side and be imprisoned here for a lifetime.

"It's not that easy for the young master to retire the engagement, isn't it?"

In order to avoid the embarrassment and tension in the atmosphere, Su Mei also tried her best to find something to say to cover up her inner tension and uneasiness.

Jiang Ling sneered and said: "King Qi will not give up this opportunity to win over the Shen family. The Qin family has been convicted, and the marriage contract between the Hou family and the Qin family has been annulled. Duke Ning will not allow Hou Fangqing to act so capriciously at this time."

"Young Lord has already seen through Shen Ying'er's true colors, I'm afraid he won't want to marry her again?"

Jiang Ling held the tea and took a sip, the cup was filled with mist, and the expression on Jiang Ling's face could not be seen clearly.

"So what if you don't want to? He was born in a noble family, and he has never been able to make decisions about marriages. The marriage between the two families is not just a matter between Hou Fangqing and Shen Yinger, but also related to King Qi's win over the Shen family for his use."

Jiang Ling never talked about these things with Su Mei on weekdays, but for some reason, she patiently told Su Mei about the interests of these families tonight.

Su Mei felt a little sympathetic to Hou Fangqing. The person she loved died, and she made a marriage contract with someone she didn't like. Ever since the fake marriage letter incident, she had seen through Shen Yinger's true face.

Hou Fangqing is handsome and noble, but she can't decide her own marriage. Shen Yinger has bad intentions and bad conduct, so she really doesn't deserve him.

But she was just sighing, why not, she was forced to stay by Jiang Ling's side.

It is a misfortune to lose a loved one, just like Jiang Ling, who lost Qin Zhen, so he can only find a substitute who is similar to her to stay by his side.

But he still wants to marry this double, instead of letting him live through conflicts and entanglements, instead of deceiving himself and others, her departure may make Jiang Ling wake up earlier.

"That's exactly what the general said."

There was someone hiding in the room, Su Mei always felt uneasy, and besides, the time agreed between her and Hou Fangqing was coming soon.

Just now what Jiang Ling said to her, Qin Luan had already told Su Mei that Hou Fangqing was confined in the mansion, but the chief attendant by his side would help him escape and be imprisoned in the mansion instead.

Tomorrow is the wedding day, even though Su Mei has already committed herself to Jiang Ling, but it is still customary, on the eve of the wedding, she absolutely cannot stay in the same room.

Su Mei plucked up all her courage but failed to say the words to drive her away, but Jiang Ling took her hand and let her sit on her lap, gently twirling her pink and soft earlobe, "Are you sick? My palms are still sweaty."

Su Mei lowered her head guiltily, lowered her eyes, not daring to look at Jiang Ling, her voice was as low as a mosquito moan, "Su Mei is just a little nervous, afraid that she won't be able to serve the general satisfactorily when she enters the mansion in the future."

Jiang Ling looked at her indifferently, leaned close to her ear and said: "This matter is very simple, as long as you don't hide from this general, don't betray this general."

Su Mei's heart was shocked, her body trembled, she quickly lowered her eyes, Jiang Ling caressed her slender waist familiarly, and was about to untie the ribbon around her waist, Su Mei hurriedly frowned and let out a soft cry , "General, don't."

Qin Luan was still hiding in the house, just now when Jiang Ling pulled her into his arms, there was a very light sound from the cabinet, but Jiang Ling didn't notice it.

"Why, don't you want to?"

Su Mei shook her head, then lowered her head guiltily, "I'm here for sunflower water, it's inconvenient tonight, please forgive me, General."

Her monthly letter was always not on time, sometimes it would take two months. Jiang Ling didn't doubt her words, he just nodded, "You are weak, I'll ask Nanny Shang to prepare some tonics."

Jiang Ling knew that every time she came to Kuishui, it was as if she had suffered a serious illness, and the pain was excruciating.

"Thank you, General."

Jiang Ling carried her to the bed and tucked her in the brocade quilt tightly, "You can rest well tonight."

He shook her hand again, frowned and said, "I was sweating just now, why is it so cold?"

Jiang Ling put that warm hand on her lower abdomen, Su Mei frowned and called anxiously: "General."

"Don't worry about sleeping, I just want to keep you warm."

Su Mei's nose was sore, her red eyes seemed to be about to shed tears, she quickly closed her eyes, only to hear Jiang Ling say again: "Sleep, I'll leave when you fall asleep."

Su Mei turned over, turned her back to Jiang Ling, and found a comfortable position to lie down.

It wasn't until the steady and powerful footsteps faded away that Su Mei lifted the quilt, got up from the bed, opened the cabinet door, and said to Qin Luan who was hiding in the cabinet, "You can come out now."
