Chapter 169
"Girl, everything is fine over there."
Xiruo said something.
Lin Yunwan saw it herself. She nodded and said, "Let's go."
Master and servant went down to the attic together.
Qi Lingheng also came back, and they met in front of Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
Lin Yunwan felt that there was no need for the prince to come over, he was too polite.
"Your Majesty."
She curtsied.
Qi Lingheng nodded, glanced at Ah Fu and Xi Ruo, and said, "I have something to say to the girl."
Both of them retreated and closed the door of Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
Lin Yunwan had no idea what the prince had to say to her about Ling Xiang? Needless to say, the prince guessed it. Whatever she could think of, the prince must have thought of it too. He would not say words that had no effect.
So it's not Lingxiang's problem.
"My lord, what do you want to tell me?"
Lin Yunwan simply asked him.
Qi Lingheng took a step closer, looked into her eyes and said, "Did you see everything just now?"
Lin Yunwan was stunned for a moment and nodded.
The prince's eyes looked cold from a distance, but looked very dark up close.
After being lost in thought for a while, she finally understood what the prince meant. In the attic just now, she saw with her own eyes how he dealt with the fighting scholars. The news about Jishan Society will definitely spread...his reputation in Jiang Qian will definitely spread. will be better.
"Then do you understand?"
Qi Lingheng asked her.
Lin Yunwan shook her head suspiciously, "What do you understand?"
She seemed to feel that what the prince wanted to say and what she was thinking about now were not the same thing.
Qi Lingheng sighed softly.
Looking at her look like this, I still don't understand.
He just said: "Lin Yunwan——"
"Um?"
Lin Yunwan frowned slightly.
Qi Lingheng's voice was gentle: "No matter how good Yan Jingzong and others are, the only one who can knock the door on the wall in the end is me." He lowered his voice and asked: "Do you understand now?"
She doesn't understand this even more!
Lin Yunwan paused and said: "...My lord, what do you mean?"
Qi Lingheng smiled helplessly: "Am I inferior to them in any way?"
"Varied--"
Before Lin Yunwan could finish her words, her heart beat several times in succession, and the expression on her face could no longer be contained.
Could it be that the prince said that he wanted to marry...her?
What a joke!
"My lord, please think twice before speaking."
Lin Yunwan frowned, feeling that what the prince said was too much.
She has always been grateful to the prince!
Qi Lingheng hummed and said, "I have thought twice."
He was worried that she wouldn't believe it, so he said sincerely: "It should be said that I have thought about it five times, seven times and nine times."
"This king - wants to marry you."
Lin Yunwan was stunned.
Qi Lingheng saw that she seemed different from him. She seemed to have never had any thoughts. He felt helpless and could only say: "Are you scared? I'm so sorry. You don't have to rush to answer me now."
Lin Yunwan suddenly didn't know how to face him.
She owes him a lot of kindness, and she can't scorn him either emotionally or rationally, and the prince is not a frivolous person... He doesn't seem to be joking!
"Your Majesty. Resign."
Lin Yunwan bowed her head and left in a hurry.
"Girl, why are you walking so fast?"
Xiruo hurriedly caught up, only to find that the girl was walking so fast that she could hardly keep up.
Lin Yunwan was focused on walking towards the flower hall, and her mind was a little confused.
If the prince had told her that there were any loopholes in her plan today, she would not be as nervous as she is now... Why would the prince want to marry her?
"Yun Wan, are you back?"
Dong Shuangshuang rushed over and whispered to her: "No one from the Lin family is looking for you." He then said: "They are playing chess. Do you want to go over and have a look?"
Lin Yunwan has no intention of watching who plays chess now.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Dong Shuangshuang held Lin Yunwan's hand and felt very cold, but how could it be cold in this weather?
She broke out in cold sweat when she touched it.
He took out a handkerchief and wiped Lin Yunwan's hands, worried: "Why are you sweating so much?"
Lin Yunwan calmed down quickly. She took Dong Shuangshuang's handkerchief, wiped her hands slowly, and said, "I'm fine. I was worried about something happening in the flower hall, so I left in a hurry."
Dong Shuangshuang held her arm, leaned into her ear and asked, "Did you see anything in Xiaoxiang Pavilion?"
"...I saw it."
She has seen so much! The prince played with her from beginning to end.
I don't know what he is thinking about her now.
She didn’t know what the prince was thinking! Since he wanted to marry her, why did he accompany her to pick out those scholars in the attic... What she did seemed like a farce.
Lin Yunwan rubbed her eyebrows.
What a headache.
Growing up, I have never felt... so embarrassed as I feel now.
Dong Shuangshuang didn't know it, and still asked happily: "Yun Wan, have you seen the person who is close to your eyes?"
Lin Yunwan was vague.
She originally thought Yan Jingzong was good, but now her mind was filled with Qi Lingheng's appearance and what he said to her... He said he wanted to marry her.
The image of Yan Jingzong has begun to blur in her heart.
Dong Shuangshuang felt something was wrong with Lin Yunwan and was very worried.
Lin Yunwan really didn't want to mention Qi Lingheng anymore, so she asked Dong Shuangshuang: "How did you discover the secret of Xiaoxiang Pavilion?"
You can spy on the scholars of Jishan Society there. I'm afraid someone has already done the same thing.
Dong Shuangshuang was afraid that people would hear her, so she pulled Lin Yunwan away and then said: "She is a cousin of the Lu family. She is very courageous... She secretly went there to see the scholars of Jishan Society, and was taught a lesson by the elders in the family. I heard this accidentally. "
Lin Yunwan smiled lightly: "Of course the little girl is curious about this kind of thing."
Everyone wants to marry a good husband, and everyone wants to choose the husband by themselves.
It's a pity that you always obey your parents' orders when getting married. Only after you get married do you know whether you are marrying a human or a ghost. This is so unfair. Men always have three wives and concubines, but women stay with them for the rest of their lives with no way out.
"Shuangshuang, I'm tired. Go back and rest."
Dong Shuangshuang also felt that Lin Yunwan looked bad, so he went back to the flower hall with her and found a quiet place to sit.
The ladies in Xilin Mansion took good care of Lin Yunwan, and the girls also wanted to talk to her, but she had no intention of making friends now, so she excused herself by saying she was not feeling well, and went back with Zheng.
"Hmph! You said it was the prince's uncle's garden, but you didn't ask anything about it. There was no trace of the prince's people!"
As soon as Lin Yunjiao returned to her home, she lost control of her words.
Mrs. Zheng had nothing to do with her. She had been in constant trouble for many days, but she finally got better. She didn't dare to provoke her daughter anymore.
"Why isn't that the prince's uncle's garden? You haven't taken a good look at how magnificent that garden is. Even your uncle's garden can't compare to it."
This is true.
Lin Yunjiao pursed her lips and said, "What does it have to do with me? I can't marry the prince."
She was raised in such an unruly manner that she kept getting married and married, and the girl to be married was most taboo about telling anyone about it, but she was not afraid at all.
Mrs. Zheng is now a little afraid that her daughter is not proper and the master will lose his temper again after hearing this.
But she was reluctant to say harsh words.
Finally he sighed and said nothing.
Lin Yunjiao felt that this time was too boring. She was simply tricked out of the house by her mother.
She still cares about her mother almost causing her to be unborn. Her mother is still hesitant and unwilling to tell the truth to her.
Lin Yunjiao lost her temper: "I don't want to go out anymore! I don't want to see anyone anymore!"
Mrs. Zheng was anxious: "You are the same age as Hua, how can you not see people?"
She was still thinking about when she could let her daughter and the prince see each other again.
But she didn't dare to boast casually if she couldn't decide the timing.
Lin Yunjiao was upset, so she pushed Zheng away and said as soon as her mind became hot: "Unless you can let me see the prince, there is no way you can trick me out of the courtyard!"
She ran back.
Mrs. Zheng hurriedly caught up with her and finally coaxed her daughter to become normal. Why was she unhappy again?
"My wife is really..."
Xiruo shook her head.
Lin Yunwan also felt that Ms. Zheng doted on Lin Yunjiao too much. She said lightly: "My wife loves the second young lady, but she just doesn't know how to love her."
Xiruo said: "Sooner or later something will happen to your pet."
Lin Yunwan did not deny it.
After returning to Bixi Hall, she felt much calmer.
When it got dark, Xiruo persuaded her not to practice calligraphy anymore, and said, "You have written enough today."
Lin Yunwan put down her pen and asked Xiruo: "Is there any news about Wen's mother and son?"
Wenhai mother and son also went to Jishan Garden. They wouldn't return empty-handed, right?
The next day, Lin Yunwan heard the news about Wen Hai.
She went to greet Mrs. Zheng and heard Lin Huabin talking to Mrs. Zheng about Wen Hai: "He gets along very well with the scholars of Jishan Society. I heard that they exchanged articles with each other yesterday."
Zheng was not interested in the article, but her husband mentioned it, so she asked excitedly: "Did the scholars of Jishan Society praise his article?"
"...That's not the case."
Lin Huabin called Wen Hai over for questioning last night. He didn't need to ask too many questions. Looking at Wen Hai's dejected look, he knew that he had suffered a blow in Jishan Society.
There are so many talented people there, how can a scholar from a small county in Wenhai get along with them?
He also talked about the fight between the scholars of Jishan Society yesterday.
Mrs. Zheng was frightened: "Fighting in groups? Why do scholars still fight in groups?"
Lin Huabin didn't take it seriously: "Young people, there will always be times when you are full of energy."
"Sir, madam."
Lin Yunwan listened to a few words and went in to say hello.
Lin Huabin had something to say to her, so he stood up and said softly: "Yun Wan, come to the study with me."
Mrs. Zheng snorted and waited until they left before slapping the table: "You have to avoid me if you have anything to say!"
Of course we have to talk about Lin Yunwan's marriage.
Lin Huabin knew in his heart that Wen Hai was just an ordinary scholar, but he still said all the good things about Wen Hai in front of Lin Yunwan.
Lin Yunwan was not in a hurry to interrupt him.
