Grudge Breaker

Chapter 248: Failed Escape
-
"If life betrays you, and sells you at a low price, when will you escape if not now? Am I still waiting for you to celebrate Qingming Festival with me?"

In the courtyard of Tingfeng Mansion, Song Weichen deliberately dressed himself in several layers of clothes, hiding his figure tightly. On the outside, he wore a set of rough servant's clothes, and drew two awkward little mustaches on himself with a brush. He carried a small bag of coarse cloth on his back and held a piece of dogtail grass picked from the yard in his mouth. At first glance, he looked like a street urchin from ancient slums.

Just as he was about to slip away, he was blocked by Mo Tingfeng who had just entered the mansion.

puff.

Looking at her, he couldn't help but laugh.

"How did you teach me to say that sentence?"

Mo Tingfeng looked at the sky from the side and thought, oh, I remembered.

"The feeling of stealing is very strong."

"whispering sound."

Song Weichen tilted his head back, pouted his lips, rolled his eyes, clasped his hands across his chest, took a step forward with his right foot, and shook his legs proudly.

"I'm making a unilateral announcement! Starting today, I'm going to change my personality. I don't care whether you're Sang Pu or Xiabu Xiabu. It has nothing to do with me. I'm leaving! Don't see me off!"
.
She passed by Mo Tingfeng, and he grabbed her waist and hugged her. No matter how she struggled and kicked, he easily brought her back to Wuqingju.

Putting her on the ground, Song Weichen puffed out his beard and glared with his eyes wide open. In addition, she wrapped herself up so well that she looked a bit like a large guinea pig.

Mo Tingfeng couldn't help laughing as he watched her. He just thought she was interesting.

"Little thing, you have half of my consciousness in you now. Even if I give you the ends of the earth, even if I give you 72 transformations, where can you run to?"

"Then I don't care! I'm not hiding from you. I'm just trying to escape from disaster. Look at what the princess wrote in the letter. It says 'Let's go to a happy banquet'. It's the Hongmen Banquet, right?"

Song Weichen put his hands on his hips, puffed out his cheeks and blew away the loose hair from his temples. He looked unhappy, just like a porcupine.

"Mr. Mo, to tell you the truth, I can't wear this Sang Pu vest for even a day. It's covered with barbs, you know? It pricks and itches!"

"Let me put it this way. I can tolerate Qin Xueying coming, but why did that Lao Longjing also come to join in the fun? Why is her role so important? How can I expect anything good from these two? To put it nicely, they are here to exchange musical skills. To put it bluntly, they are either here to irritate me or to waste my time!"

……

"And if they find out that Sang Pu and Bai Pao are the same person, wouldn't the truth be completely exposed? This is deceiving the king!"

"I have the Death Curse on me anyway, and I also have that damn mark of my past life. I am not itchy, but the problem is not to implicate other people in Sichen Mansion! When the time comes, a thorough investigation will reveal that He Ran and Wu Jiu have known about it for a long time but have concealed it. The territory lord will be furious and dismiss them from their posts, investigate them and send them to exile. But what if they are purified and sent to the Immortal Palace to be a dog slave? That would be a serious crime!"

Song Weichen spoke so confidently that he even made himself thirsty.

She picked up the teacup on the table and took a big sip, wiped her mouth with her sleeve, and then tightened the small bag full of gold and silver jewelry on her back, and made a "goodbye" gesture to Mo Tingfeng.

"There's a good saying, 'A gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall.' I'm leaving! Whether Sang Pu fled for fear of crime or died suddenly, you can make up your own story!"

Mo Tingfeng was overjoyed. He stretched out his long arms and took a step forward, easily blocking Song Weichen's way.

Holding her face gently, he took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the "moustache" on her face.

"Little thing, you've read too many storybooks."

"The princess values ​​talent. She has heard of your reputation as a peerless zither player for many days, so it is normal for her to want to meet you. Mianmian was her zither teacher for a while, so it is normal for her to invite her to go with her. It just so happens that the Venerable Mansion has been vacant since it was renovated, so they can stay there for a few days. Guyu is smart and has a good eye, so she can also go over to serve."

Song Weichen laughed out of anger and almost applauded Mo Tingfeng.

"Okay, okay, you, Old Deng, are capable of making arrangements. Not only did you let someone live in my mansion, you also sent my people there to be used by others. You really don't treat me as an outsider."

"Let's not talk about Qin Xueying for now. Do you think that Old Longjing, who is always talking gie-gie to your brother, will not cause trouble when he comes?"

"She has already regarded Sang Pu as a thorn in her side before she even discovered that we are having an affair. What good will it be for me when we come to an end? Won't she take advantage of the eldest princess to kill me? Mo Tingfeng, you really know nothing about palace fighting and the intrigues between women."

The more Song Weichen thought about it, the more she felt like "sending" it. She shook her head like a rattle. It wasn't that she was a coward, but she just didn't want to get involved in any scandal.

"No, no, I have to go and get out of the spotlight. I'm going to Huangjia Village to look for Kukui, and I'll come back after they leave."

Mo Tingfeng saw that she seemed to be equipped with springs and jumped up and down several times in a short while. In order to solve the problem once and for all, he simply hugged her in his arms like a princess.

"This is your home. How can the hostess avoid guests when they come to visit?"

"If you keep mentioning the word 'walk away', I'll break your legs. Do you hear me?"

……

Song Weichen struggled twice in vain, so he just gave up completely and let him hold him in silence, with a look on his face that said "Look at me, I'm running away" - he weighed dozens of kilograms but had a rebellious nature of a hundred kilograms.

Mo Tingfeng felt helpless and amused at the same time. He really didn't understand any palace fighting drama, but the threat of the death curse was no joke. She had been sick for half a month and had just recovered. Now she had forgotten the pain - how could he let her run around alone during such an extraordinary period?

Besides, he also wanted to make the relationship between them clear in front of Qin Xueying and Ruan Mianmian. He didn't understand the intrigues of women, and he didn't want to understand them. Besides, those women had nothing to do with him. But he knew very well how many wolves were eyeing Song Weichen. He felt relieved after making the relationship between them clear. "Weiwei, you have to show yourself as a woman in the future. The princess's visit may be an opportunity. Although Xueying is a woman, she is generous and unconventional. It is a great benefit for you that she recognized your identity as a woman in white robes earlier."

"And I also want to take this opportunity to clarify our relationship."

Song Weichen became anxious upon hearing this. At this stage, the fewer people knew that she was a white robe, the better. Now that Zhuang Yuheng had arrived at Wu Zi Pavilion, she believed that she would soon be able to find the rubbing of the ancient book that she had asked Ji Baishou to tamper with, which recorded the method of breaking the ban on cutting off love.

If everything goes well, this year's Chinese Valentine's Day will be the time to lift the love ban for Mo Tingfeng.

Although Song Weichen's memory was not very good, he remembered the taboos after the ban was lifted very clearly -

"But all my memories of the person I loved have disappeared, my feelings are gone, and there is no way to recall them."

"If anyone who has lifted this ban attempts to forcibly recall the past by using other methods, he will be devoured by fire and thunder, and his body and soul will be destroyed, and he will fall into the eternal night."

……

In other words, if she reveals her identity and their relationship now, even if no one deliberately harms her after the ban is lifted, there will probably be people who frequently mention their past in front of Mo Tingfeng. This will definitely be considered "forced nostalgia" - the consequences will be disastrous!
"Weiwei, you look very bad, are you feeling unwell again?"

Mo Tingfeng's eyes were full of tension. Suddenly, seeing her face was as pale as paper and she looked in pain, he was afraid that her serious illness had recurred, so he quickly carried her to sit on the edge of the bed.

"I am fine."

Song Weichen shook his head and grabbed Mo Tingfeng's sleeve tightly.

"I won't run away. I will cooperate well with the princess when she comes, but can you promise me one thing? Can our relationship and my identity as a white robe be made public after this year's Chinese Valentine's Day?"

"why?"

Mo Tingfeng didn't understand.

"Because, because..."

Song Weichen stammered. Her heart ached when she thought of the eight words "all memories are gone, all feelings are gone". She really couldn't come up with an excuse.

"Mo Tingfeng, because I love you."

"I want to marry you after Chinese Valentine's Day this year. You know girls like the sense of ceremony, so I want to save this surprise until then and share it with everyone. Is that okay?"

Although this reason was far-fetched and could not stand up to scrutiny, Mo Tingfeng, who was "blinded by love", did not notice anything unusual.

He promised repeatedly, wishing that today was the Chinese Valentine's Day.

……

The more overjoyed Mo Tingfeng was, the more forced Song Weichen's smile became. She was also puzzled. She always prided herself on being a good actor, but why was she now filled with so much bitterness and pain that seemed to be about to burst out?

Under the pretext of playing with her bangs, she quickly wiped her eyes and forced herself to change the subject, "When will the princess arrive? I'll ask Guyu to go over and tidy up the Venerable's Mansion."

"After three days, you don't have to worry about these things."

Mo Tingfeng looked at Song Weichen with a smile.

"Let's go while we still have time. I'll take you to absorb the Puppet Qi. One of Wujiu's ground network patrol tasks also includes finding Puppet Qi and cleaning it up. They have already found several places and are waiting for you to go."

"Okay, okay, this is serious business!"

Song Weichen responded in a voice, stood up and trotted behind the screen to change into a white robe. She hadn't felt the existence of the little guinea pig for half a month, and no matter how she practiced the breathing technique of the puppet illusion technique, it didn't work - but she didn't believe it would just disappear like that.

Maybe... maybe after the puppet energy in the puppet is full, she will still be able to hear the little meatball's naughty voice.
.
Song Weichen had just changed his clothes and walked out of Wuqingju with Mo Tingfeng when they ran into Ding Heran who was rushing over.

He seemed to be a little paler than before, perhaps because he had been lying in bed all day to recuperate from his injuries and had not seen the sun.

In fact, Ding Heran had come to visit Song Weichen many times during his coma, but he had just returned to work after recovering from his injury, and Skynet had a lot of official business to deal with, so he could not stay for long each time. In addition, she was not very awake most of the time, so the two of them had never had a serious conversation.

"Aloha! Tsuruzen! Did you come here specially to clean up the puppet energy with us?"

Song Weichen was very happy to see him coming. He looked up and greeted Ding Heran from afar.

Unexpectedly, Ding Heran looked so serious that he didn't even have the mind to respond to Song Weichen's greeting with a smile.

"Master Si Chen, Brother Wei!"

Ding Heran quickly walked up to the two men and bowed.

"problem occurs!"
