Madam or wife or sweetheart
When Yan Chan returned to the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, night had already fallen. When the servants saw that Yan Chan had finally returned, they held up a lantern and opened the door for her.
Then he handed a letter to the servant.
The servant glanced at the servant who delivered the letter, and seeing him making the sign of the cross, he signaled him to step back, then quickened his pace to catch up with Yan Chan.
"Master, a letter from Miss Shi."
As Yan Chan stepped onto the stairs, she heard the servant's words, so she took the envelope from the servant's hand.
I subconsciously felt the thickness of the letter with my fingers and was a little surprised.
In her opinion, Shi Guiyi was not a talkative person, but this letter...
After returning home, Yan Chan went straight to the bedroom. She took the envelope into the inner room and was curious about what Gui Yi had written in the letter.
Yan Chan found a chair and sat down casually. She drank a sip of water before opening the letter leisurely.
There were a total of five, six, seven or eight sheets of paper.
When she thought about how many words she would have to read, she stopped sitting upright, relaxed her back, half leaned against the couch, and rested her elbows on the table with the tea set.
Yan Chan reads very quickly. The first few chapters mainly describe what Shi Guiyi saw and heard during his travels, but the latter part is a bit...
Did he treat Yan Chan as his own?
Yan Chan held his forehead and continued reading helplessly.
Ignoring those words of concern for her, she knew that it was time to return home and didn't want to have too much involvement with her.
At the end of the letter, it was written that she would return to the capital soon.
Yan Chan supported his chin and pinched the corner of the letter, thinking. Since Yan Chan returned to Beijing, he secretly sent many people to investigate Shi Guiyi's life experience, but all the clues were lost.
Why did she return to Beijing this time?
Yan Chan originally thought that she would travel outside for a while, but she never expected that she would come back so soon. It was really unexpected.
Yan Chan has a lot of thoughts, and now this problem comes back. Shi Guiyi wrote to herself, is she asking her to help arrange a place for her to stay?
This is not a difficult matter, it can even be described as simple.
Yan Chan tapped the table with her fingertips, wondering if she was overthinking.
"Master." The servant came in again.
"She has been sent back safely." Yan Chan had instructed in advance that after sending Guan Zheng back, she must come back to report to her in time.
The servant said yes, and when he saw that Yan Chan had nothing to ask, he left.
He also thought that his master would arrange for Miss Guan Er to come over. After all, newlyweds should not want to be separated.
Now that I think about it, he was narrow-minded. The master's self-control was truly beyond our reach!
He can't learn it.
"Wait a moment." With just a few words, the servant who was about to leave the room came back running.
"What are your orders, master?" He had already figured out who to ask to pick up Miss Guan Er this time. This was a lucrative job, and he couldn't forget his good brother.
"Arrange a carriage for tomorrow..." Before Yan Chan finished speaking, she heard the servant take over the conversation.
"You're going to pick up Miss Guan Er, right? I understand."
"!" Yan Chan raised his head and took a good look at his personal servant. What happened to him?
Yan Chan bit the finger across her lips and said angrily and amusedly, "Go pick up Miss Shi."
"Yes, ah!" The servant raised his head in confusion. Is his master such a person who loves the new and dislikes the old? How could he not know
"What about Miss Guan Er?" the servant asked tentatively, his eyebrows furrowed.
"Let's talk about it in a few days." Yan Chan had also thought about it carefully. She was afraid that this would happen too frequently and Guan Zheng would not be able to bear it.
This is a physical job, although Guan Zheng doesn't need to put in any effort.
But today, seeing her sweating profusely, Yan Chan was kind enough to let her rest for a few more days.
You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Anyway, this tofu will be yours sooner or later.
"Yes." The servant retreated dejectedly.
The master's heart is as unfathomable as a needle in the sea.
The servant waited at the dock for four or five days but Shi Guiyi still didn't show up.
One day, he was standing at the door yawning and waiting for Yan Chan.
"Aren't you usually very good at guessing my thoughts? How come you go to do such a task in person?" Yan Chan leaned against the door, looking at the servant who was preparing to report with some amusement.
Yan Chan had previously asked him to clean up another house, and he thought that was what Yan Chan meant, after all, there was a previous lesson there.
Isn’t it?
The servant still thinks he is a worm in the belly of a cicada, knowing everything...
The servant wailed and wiped away his bitter tears.
After a few days, the boat that Shi Guiyi was on finally arrived at the dock.
As soon as she got off the boat, she felt like her legs were not her own. She had been feeling really bad these past few days and had thought that if she took a few more boat rides, the dizziness would be relieved.
She suppressed her nausea and rested for a while before getting on the carriage Yan Chan had prepared for her.
The carriage was moving very steadily, but the shaking still brought back the nausea that she had managed to suppress.
The carriage took her to a tavern that Yan Chan often went to.
Yan Chan was still sitting in the room. She opened the window so that she could have a clear view of the scenery downstairs.
While she was sipping tea, she noticed that her carriage had arrived.
It was she who ordered someone to send Shi Guiyi here.
After a long journey, you should always eat something first.
The weather was slightly cool and very comfortable today, so she gave up the idea of closing the window and sat lazily in the breeze waiting for Shi Guiyi to come up.
"Young Marquis." Shi Guiyi walked around the screen and saw Yan Chan sitting by the window. There was some joy in her tone, and her eyes lit up when she saw Yan Chan.
Yan Chan didn't stand up, but raised the teacup to her. After not seeing each other for a long time, Yan Chan felt that Shi Guiyi seemed to have changed and become brighter.
It seems that traveling does have some benefits. At least it dispelled some of the sadness in her heart.
Guan Zheng had nothing to do today, so she took Dongxue out for a walk.
Firstly, she missed the honey osmanthus in the pastry shop, and secondly... Guan Zheng hadn't seen the young marquis for nearly half a month, and whenever she had some free time, her mind was filled with the beautiful scene of that day.
She desperately needed something new to drive away the disgusting images in her mind.
She didn't expect that the young marquis was so efficient, and there was no movement from the prince for the time being.
She hasn't seen her father for a long time.
I wonder what he is busy with all day.
At this time, Lord Guan was in his study, feeling extremely anxious. When he heard that the prince had made another mistake, he asked Your Majesty to scold him.
He was also somewhat relieved that he had only thought of sending Guan Zheng to the prince's inner court and had not yet made the matter public. He needed to wait and see. Although the prince's mistake this time was not very big, His Majesty was very angry.
Lord Guan was worried whether the prince's position was still as stable as before.
After all, the side he chooses to take will determine whether his future career will be successful.
If we only send a concubine's daughter, it would be too embarrassing and the relationship would not be that solid.
Lord Guan calculated Guan Zheng's age again and found that he still had a few months to consider it carefully.
He knew that this matter could not be rushed.
On this side, Guan Zheng had just received some freshly baked cakes. Walking on the busy street, she lowered her head and sniffed the aroma of the cakes. She really couldn't wait any longer, but it was a bit indecent to eat casually on the street.
She suddenly remembered that her carriage was parked near the tavern, so she shouted to Dongxue to hurry up so that she wouldn't be seen eating in the carriage.
"Hey, girl, the person sitting there seems to be the young marquis of the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion." Dongxue pointed at Yan Chan who was smiling on the second floor.
I don't know what he was saying, but he was laughing so happily.
Guan Zheng looked in the direction Dongxue pointed, and indeed saw the person she had been thinking about day and night.
Guan Zheng's smile froze immediately when she saw the person sitting opposite Yan Chan.
Who is that girl?
Are they so happy chatting...
Yan Chan had never smiled at her like this before, so passionately, so dazzlingly.
Guan Zheng knew she shouldn't be angry. After all, she was a young marquis...
A nameless, randomly played around with...a forgotten person.
But Guan Zheng was still very jealous, and couldn't help but think about it and feel jealous. She lowered her eyes in grievance, and the handkerchief in her hand was clenched tighter and tighter.
"Miss." Dongxue didn't understand why the girl ran away in anger after just glancing at the young marquis.
Guan Zheng had just returned to the Guan residence and hadn't even sat down in the chair when a servant came to report that Lin Xunyan wanted to ask the girl to go and talk to him.
Guan Zheng was feeling upset and wanted to find someone to talk to, so she didn't notice that the carriage parked at the door was not from the Lin family.
She lowered her head and went straight in, still looking aggrieved, and didn't even notice Yan Chan's personal servant standing next to the carriage.
"Who wronged you? Your biased father or your annoying elder sister?"
In the tavern, Shi Guiyi said that after traveling, she suddenly felt enlightened and her mood changed a lot. She felt that she had lived too depressed before, and after figuring it out, she wanted to live in a different way.
Shi Guiyi felt that he had changed his mind in just two years, so he asked the question that he had always wanted to ask but never had the chance to say.
She asked Yan Chan if he still had no plans to get married like he did two years ago.
At that time, the cicadas were silent.
She thought of Guan Zheng and remembered that they had not seen each other for a long time, so after Shi Guiyi left, Yan Chan came here in person to pick up Guan Zheng.
She originally thought Guan Zheng would be very happy to see her, but she didn't expect that she looked like she was being bullied.
"Young Marquis, why are you here? Didn't you say you wanted to talk about Miss Lin..." Guan Zheng looked at the person sitting in the carriage in surprise, and when she was confused, Yan Chan pulled her into his arms.
"If I don't call you out under the name Xun Yan, will you still keep your reputation?" Yan Chan rested his chin on the top of Guan Zheng's head, held her in his arms with both hands, and said with a smile.
Thinking of her reputation, Guan Zheng pouted in grievance again.
"You haven't told me yet. Who made you angry? I'll help you teach her a lesson." Yan Chan pinched her face and looked at Guan Zheng with a smile.
Guan Zheng thought to herself, isn’t this person you, young marquis?
But she didn't want to say it out loud.
"Guan Zheng would like to thank the young marquis for the matter concerning His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"It's only been half a month since we last met, why has Second Miss Guan become so estranged from me?" Yan Chan was a little confused. She felt a little uncomfortable looking at the polite Guan Zheng.
Could it be that she was going to be thrown aside after being used?
What a heartless person.
"Hasn't the young marquis always called me Miss Guan?" Guan Zheng realized right after she finished speaking that what she said was a little inappropriate, and she actually spoke out her innermost thoughts to Yan Chan.
"Then...Miss Guan, what do you want me to call you, Madam or my sweetheart?" She kissed Guan Zheng's fingers gently, but her eyes were fixed on the changes in her expression when she heard this.
"Young Marquis, please stop making fun of me." Guan Zheng turned her head away in annoyance, preventing Yan Chan's affectionate peach blossom eyes from looking at her straight.
Yan Chan wanted to say something else when the servant's voice came from outside the carriage.
"Master, we're here."
As soon as she finished speaking, Guan Zheng became nervous. She subconsciously turned her head to look at Yan Chan. Seeing that she was staring at her, she couldn't help but feel like a prey falling into a trap.
And she, Guan Zheng, is that prey.
