Chapter 166
"Where is Xiaoxiang Pavilion?"
When Dong Shuangshuang found an opportunity, he came over to see Lin Yunwan. The two of them left the flower hall one after the other and wandered around Jishan Garden.
Dong Shuangshuang took Lin Yunwan's arm and walked to a shady place.
She said: "This garden is very big."
Before I walked a few steps, there were women wandering around everywhere.
Jiang Qian has many private gardens, and the garden on Jishan Mountain is very famous for its scenery. Anyone who can come as a guest will seize the opportunity to take a look at this garden.
Dong Shuangshuang pursed his lips and smiled and said: "You, Xilin Mansion, have rented half of this garden. The other half of the garden is where scholars from Jishan Society often discuss poetry and articles. Walk from here, go around behind the rockery, and then pass through a forest. It’s Xiaoxiang Pavilion.”
"Looking down from the attic, you can see the scholars of Jishan Society discussing knowledge in the courtyard."
Dong Shuangshuang whispered: "...not many people know."
"Today happens to be the day when the scholars of Jishan Society debate articles. You can see them when you get to the cabinet."
Lin Yunwan smiled slightly.
She really saves her worries!
The two of them walked for a while and exchanged some minor gossip, ranging from my sister's usual diet to who created the garden.
"girl……"
Xiruo shouted softly from behind Lin Yunwan.
Lin Yunwan followed Xiruo's prompt and looked over, and Ah Fu appeared in the distance.
Why is he here?
Does this mean that the prince is here?
"Yun Wan, why don't you leave?"
Lin Yunwan quickly turned around and said to Dong Shuangshuang: "Shuangshuang, can you go back and watch for me?"
"If someone from the mansion comes looking for me, just ask your maid to come over."
Dong Shuangshuang thought for a while, she might as well go back and watch.
She was not from the Lin family, and they wouldn't doubt her if she kept an eye on the situation for Lin Yunwan.
As soon as Dong Shuangshuang left, Lin Yunwan took Xiruo to the depths of the garden. When they walked to an attic, they saw Ah Fu waiting in front of the door.
"Afu?"
Lin Yunwan walked over and looked up, it happened to be Xiaoxiang Pavilion!
She asked Ah Fu: "Is the prince here too?"
Qi Lingheng came out of the courtyard gate of Xiaoxiang Pavilion. His face was gentle, but his eyes were darker than before.
"I am here."
Lin Yunwan and Xiruo both took a step back and turned to Qi Lingheng.
Qi Ling nodded and said, "Get up."
Lin Yunwan looked around and saw that no one was there anymore.
...Needless to say, where the prince comes, there will definitely be no idlers.
She has already met the prince twice. Isn't it a coincidence?
Lin Yunwan asked immediately: "My lord, why are you here?"
Qi Lingheng smiled lightly: "Lin Mansion rented this garden, don't you know who the owner of this garden is?"
"Is it yours?"
Lin Yunwan was very curious. The prince had only been in Jiangqian for a long time. This garden shouldn't belong to him, right?
It is indeed not Qi Lingheng's.
He said, "It belongs to my uncle." Qi Lingheng glanced at her and said, "My uncle said that when I get married, this garden will be given to me."
Lin Yunwan was puzzled.
Why are you telling her this?
She lowered her eyes slightly, the prince also came to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, which made it inconvenient for her to do things.
You can't peek at the scholars of Jishan Society in front of him.
"Didn't you want to come here?"
Qi Lingheng pushed open the door of Xiaoxiang Pavilion and said, "Why don't you come in?"
He stood by the door. He was very tall. There was no smile on his face, but he had a very special gentleness, which was not at all like the way he got along with the local officials in Jiang Qian.
"Your Majesty..."
Lin Yunwan wanted to enter Xiaoxiang Pavilion, but she didn't want to go in with Qi Lingheng.
Qi Lingheng didn't mind.
"Miss Lin, let's come in and talk."
Lin Yunwan paused, then went in with Xiruo, followed by Ah Fu, and then several guards gathered around to guard Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
"No wonder it's called Xiaoxiang Pavilion."
After Lin Yunwan entered, she secretly said in her heart.
It is full of bamboos, which have grown as high as the second floor of the attic. You can see that they are bamboos that have taken root here for many years.
Qi Lingheng took Lin Yunwan in and said, "You can't see much on the first floor, but you can see a lot of scenery on the second floor."
She was originally going to the second floor...
Lin Yunwan followed up.
The stairs in the attic are very narrow, and whoever walks up will hear their footsteps thumping. Only Qi Lingheng's steps are particularly steady.
Arriving on the second floor, Xiruo obeyed the order and opened a side window, and a voice came in: "...So, you have already written the article?"
"Hurry up and take it out for everyone to enjoy."
"Brother Yan, why are you so shy? Stop refusing. Take it out and read it."
Lin Yunwan looked downstairs. In the spacious courtyard, there were many tables and chairs. There were many young scholars, some wearing robes, some wearing wide-sleeved robes, and some wearing long shirts - these were only worn by scholars. clothes.
"It really is……"
It is really an excellent place. You can see at a glance how the scholars in Jishan Society read and discuss Taoism.
But the bamboos grew so luxuriantly that the scholars should not be able to see them in the attic.
"Miss Lin, have you been very close to Mrs. Dong recently?"
Qi Lingheng suddenly asked.
Lin Yunwan thought that he had taken action and paralyzed Lu Rong, and she no longer wanted to avoid Qi Lingheng. She looked into his eyes and said, "My lord, didn't you see that? She was going to take me to Xiaoxiang Pavilion today."
Qi Lingheng also looked at her.
He asked frankly: "Is there anything in Xiaoxiang Pavilion that particularly attracts you?"
Lin Yunwan smiled, looked at the scholars of Jishan Society, and asked, "My lord, haven't you already seen it?"
Qi Lingheng had already seen those scholars.
A very energetic group of scholars, and there may be some future pillars of the imperial court among them.
Lin Yunwan said calmly: "Your Majesty once reminded me to make plans for myself."
"There is no way out for women except to marry. Marry a good man."
Qi Lingheng frowned: "That's why Mrs. Dong brought you here..."
"Yes."
Lin Yunwan openly admitted that she came here to choose a husband.
The prince has helped her so much, and they have done many incredible things together.
So what if he knew?
Qi Lingheng looked helpless after thinking about it.
It turns out that he helped Lin Yunwan teach Lu Rong a lesson, and he helped a place like this?
If I had known...
Lin Yunwan turned to look at Qi Lingheng, but found that his expression was not very good.
"Your Majesty?"
"Um."
Qi Lingheng asked Lin Yunwan: "There are so many people here, how can you know who is worthy of entrustment and who is not?"
Lin Yunwan also made preparations in advance.
She took out a booklet from her arms, which was the one given by Dong Shuangshuang.
Qi Lingheng saw the booklet and pinched his eyebrows.
She was really well prepared.
If he had found out later, would she have even found out other people's birthdays and horoscopes?
