Ruanjiaobao was forced to marry by Lord Hou again

Chapter 301
It was noon when we returned to the capital.

When the servant informed the mistress of her return home safely, Rongxiu and Qingju Yuan Taole ran out scramblingly, dragged Ye Lingwu to ask her about her health and looked at her several times, and felt relieved when she found out that she was all right.

Qingju draped the purple white fox-fur collared cloak she brought out with her on Ye Lingwu's shoulders, sobbing softly, "Mistress, it's great that you can come back safely. How worried, I heard that Ning Beihou personally led the Black Banner Army out of the city to search for people, and he couldn't sleep all night."

Ye Lingwu raised her hand to wipe away the teardrops from the corners of Qingju's eyes, and forced a smile and said, "It's okay, I'm back."

"We are relieved when the mistress comes back, but the lord has been bored in your study since he left the palace yesterday, and he hasn't even drank his saliva until now. I'm afraid you are going crazy with worry." Yuan Tao opened his mouth. Also with a crying voice.

Ye Lingwu frowned, turned around and went to the mansion.

The sky was gloomy, and the sun hiding in the dark clouds added a few touches of dull orange to the yard, which made the leaves in the yard a little decadent.

When passing through the courtyard, I saw Nanny Yu on the porch outside the main house, guarding the study door thoughtfully, until she saw Ye Lingwu appearing, she finally showed her face and said: "Mother, you are back, are you okay? "

Ye Lingwu stopped in her tracks, glanced at the closed study door, and said anxiously: "I'm fine, where's the master?"

Nanny Yu lowered her face and replied: "Master won't let anyone in. It's almost seven or eight hours without eating or drinking. I don't know if the mistress will come back. You can go in and persuade the master."

Ye Lingwu lowered her eyes slowly, feeling a bad premonition in her heart.

The room was dark, the surrounding windows were tightly closed, and the sunlight could not come in, and none of the lamps on the table were lit.

Ye Lingwu walked in lightly, and saw Jiang Yuan sitting in front of the desk. The dark light enveloped her, and she was completely depressed. She didn't say a word, but Ye Lingwu could clearly feel it. to her depression.

In the past three years, although the two of them have lived happily ever after, it is false to say that they have no feelings. It was only after getting along that Ye Lingwu realized that the burden on Jiang Yuan was far beyond what a daughter's family could bear, but she Never complained, always had a smile on his face.

But her smile is often not from the heart, like a mask.

Ye Lingwu's heart seemed to be grabbed by a pair of invisible hands. She walked slowly to the desk and knelt down. Seeing that Jiang Yuan was still in a daze, she blew on the torch and lit the candlestick on the desk. After escaping from the dead, why didn't you go outside the mansion to meet me?"

Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes to look at Ye Lingwu who appeared at an unknown time, and said after a long silence, "Are you okay?"

Ye Lingwu breathed a sigh of relief, and replied: "Of course something happened. I ran into the robbers and ran in the mountains for most of the night. After my sister Yuan's water broke, she didn't dare to close her eyes for a second in the middle of the night. She finally went home. It's gone, but someone didn't know what happened, and he huddled in my study and didn't even eat, tell me, can you be all right?"

"I made you worry." Jiang Yuan smiled slightly, then lowered her head and pushed a booklet written on the case table towards her, "I thought Rongxiu would bring it to you, but now that you're back, It’s also good to give it face to face.”

Ye Lingwu frowned, picked up the booklet and spread it out for a look, her heart stopped suddenly, she raised her head in astonishment and said, "You want to make peace with me?"

Jiang Yuandao: "His Royal Highness, I don't know where I found out that there is another daughter in the Jiang family. He invited me into the palace to test for a long time yesterday. Although it is a test, if he really wants to investigate carefully, my identity will be exposed sooner or later. I promised I will let you go before the Jiang family is in trouble, and now is the time to fulfill the promise."

Ye Lingwu's face was serious: "He... His Royal Highness is still testing you, if you can find a way to get over it before he makes up his mind..."

"impossible."

Jiang Yuan interrupted softly, and said: "Don't talk about His Royal Highness, just talk about Tingwei Mansion, the 'method' you mentioned, can you really hide it from them?"

Ye Lingwu's shoulders sank: "Then... then you have to think about it, is it possible that you just resigned to your fate and waited for the Tingwei Mansion to come to you?"

Jiang Yuan hooked the corner of his mouth weakly, and replied: "Qingqing, don't worry about me, you should take care of yourself first."

"..."

Ye Lingwu asked herself that since she was a child, she didn't have the quality of sharing blessings and sharing hardships. She has lived until now by relying on selfishness, but now she can't ignore Jiang Yuan.

The two stalemate for a long time, Jiang Yuan said again: "I left a small mansion in the south of the city, you can move there tomorrow."

……

……

At night, the gray sky is like a light-colored cloth stained with coal ash, dark and thick and light, against the only remaining halo of the Golden Wuxi.

"Mistress, does the lord really want to make peace with you?" Rongxiu looked at the booklet in her hand, wondering.

Qingju and Yuantao were stunned.

Ye Lingwu nodded silently, unable to hide her disappointment: "Sister Rongxiu, pack your luggage in the house, we will move out of Jiang's house before it is completely dark."

Rongxiu didn't know why, her eyes were moist and she said, "Why, the lord and mistress were fine before today, how could it be so sudden?"

Ye Lingwu quietly looked into the distance, without answering, half of her face was immersed in the ambiguous twilight of dusk.

The night was dark and the moon was sparse. It took two hours to pack up and leave the house. In fact, there was nothing to clean up. Except for the clothes, taking away the extra things would only add to the sadness.

However, Ye Lingwu sat in the room for two hours before opening the door.

Rongxiu led Qingju Yuantao and had already loaded the luggage into the carriage. Seeing that the person finally came out, she didn't dare to rush, she just said: "Mistress, the carriage is waiting outside the mansion, should we tell the master to say goodbye?" Leaving the house?"

Ye Lingwu said slowly: "No need, let's go."

The mansion in the south of the city was bought by Jiang Yuan when he first came to Beijing a few years ago. As soon as he entered the mansion, he saw a square courtyard.

It is directly facing the hall, and on both sides are side houses. Although it is more than three times smaller than Jiang's mansion, only rich and noble families can live in the capital where every inch of land is expensive.

No one cleaned it for an unknown period of time, and the ground was covered with snow and dead branches and leaves. The four masters and servants stood in the courtyard, looking empty and deserted.

Yuan Tao pursed her lips, and said in an aggrieved tone: "Mistress, there is no place to live in this mansion. We moved out in such a hurry. You were worried all night yesterday. I'm afraid you won't be able to rest well tonight."

Ye Lingwu sighed: "It doesn't matter, you guys go clean up first."

"But... hey!" Yuan Tao wanted to say something, but Rongxiu Qingju hurriedly dragged her away.
