"Aunt Lingyan?"
Lin Chunhuan was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that she would meet this person now after just thinking of him a few days ago. She turned to look at Chang Huaijin.
I found that he also looked confused.
Judging from her appearance, Princess Lingyan is probably not a frequent visitor here. Maybe this is her first time here.
As soon as I arrived, this aunt whom I hadn't seen for many years came in. Could she be here for me?
"Let's go take a look first." Chang Huaijin frowned slightly, but his calm expression was reassuring. "After all, if you don't want to, no matter who or what, no one can force you."
"I am responsible for everything."
Looking at the pair of eyes in front of her, Lin Chunhuan was silent for a moment, then suddenly chuckled, "How can such a big deal be so serious? I am a princess and the young lady of Cangjian Villa."
"There aren't many people in this world who can force me to do anything."
But after arriving at the main hall, Lin Chunhuan realized that she had said this too early. She had not expected that the Princess Lingyan in her memory would have a round face, be gentle and smiley.
The woman who was once the apple of everyone's eye throughout her life would one day become so miserable and destitute.
Lingyan sat in the first seat on the right. His clothes were still luxurious, but his round face had become so thin that it no longer had the roundness it once had. His chin was as sharp as a knife, and his beautiful eyes looked particularly big because of his weight loss.
When he raised his eyelids to look at people, his huge eyeballs seemed to be emitting a terrifying ghostly aura.
Mrs. Chang was a little restless and wanted to say something, but when she saw Princess Lingyan trembling while holding the teacup, she opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.
"mother."
Hearing Lin Chunhuan's voice, Mrs. Chang seemed to have found a savior, "Ah Huan, you're finally here!"
Lin Chunhuan was confused when her arm was pulled. Before she could figure out what was going on, Madam Chang had already walked past her and headed out the door, "Princess Lingyan is here to look for you."
"Mother has some other things to take care of, so I'll leave this to you."
Looking at Madam Chang's leaving back, Lin Chunhuan blinked. The guests hadn't stood up yet, and the hostess left after leaving a junior behind. This... didn't seem to be in accordance with the rules.
"It seems that Princess Lingyan is asking for something big today."
A large hand, always carrying warmth, fell on his shoulder. Lin Chunhuan turned his head and took a look before settling his gaze on Chang Huaijin's profile. "So, mother is avoiding suspicion?"
"Not only mother, but father is not here either. I'm afraid the entire Cangjian Villa will have to avoid suspicion."
Although the two were already in the same room with Princess Lingyan, Princess Lingyan, who was sitting there, did not react at all whether they came in or Madam Chang left.
He just held the teacup quietly, looked at the ground and said nothing.
If you look closely, you can see that the thin body is trembling slightly.
"Don't worry." Chang Huaijin stood beside him. Even though he had guessed that it was not a small matter, his tone was still as calm as usual. "It must be a big deal if Princess Lingyan can find your niece who she has only met a few times."
"If you want to help, then help. If you don't want to, then don't force me."
Knowing that now was not the time to speak, Lin Chunhuan just raised his eyebrows and did not respond to Chang Huaijin's comfort. He walked up to Princess Lingyan and greeted her in a gentle tone.
"Aunt Lingyan?"
Although the tone was gentle, the Princess Lingyan in front of him seemed to be frightened by a loud noise. Her hands holding the teacup shook, and a lot of tea inside spilled out.
Fortunately, she had been holding this cup of tea for a long time, otherwise the entire back of her hand would have been burned.
I didn't expect that just saying hello could scare people so much?
Lin Chunhuan raised her head and met Yu Chang Huaijin's gaze, then lowered her tone even more, "Aunt Lingyan, I'm Fu'an, do you still remember me?"
"Fuan?"
Princess Lingyan's white fingertips slowed down slightly after hearing these two words, and her stiff eyes finally showed a hint of the agility that a living person should have.
Even though he still looked timid, it seemed that he could communicate.
Lin Chunhuan pursed her lips and reached out to try to take the teacup away from Princess Lingyan's hand. Fortunately, the other party just stared at her with a pair of eyes.
Looking at her face as if to confirm something, he no longer resisted her actions.
"Aunt Lingyan, don't be afraid. I'm Fu'an, your niece." Lin Chunhuan bent down, trying to make her tone and gaze appear non-aggressive. "What's the matter with you coming to see me?"
Princess Lingyan's lips moved, but she seemed to have some reservations. The deep fear in her eyes had not dissipated. In the end, she actually held Lin Chunhuan's hand and said, "Can I...can I stay here for a while?"
"Stay here?"
Lin Chunhuan was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Chang Huaijin.
Although the latter was a little confused, he still nodded.
Cangjian Villa has always been kind and generous. They will treat any passing knight who wants to stay overnight with them very well, not to mention that she is a princess of the imperial court and Lin Chunhuan's aunt.
After a while, a maid came and took Princess Lingyan away. When they reached the door, a gust of wind blew past.
Lin Chunhuan realized that the gorgeous robe Princess Lingyan was wearing was empty. She was so thin that she couldn't even support a piece of clothing. "Huai Jin, this is wrong."
"In my memory, Aunt Lingyan would never look like this."
"Besides, why would she come to the villa alone? Where is her husband?"
Chang Huaijin also frowned, obviously noticing the strangeness in it, but after all, it was an outsider's business, so he didn't think much about it, "Maybe her husband was delayed by something, or maybe they don't get along."
"No, that's not right."
Lin Chunhuan turned his head and looked directly into Chang Huaijin's eyes. "If that's the case, then what is Aunt Lingyan afraid of? Why doesn't she return to Beijing?"
"Uncle Prince Yan is just old, not dead. He has a backer. Why would he come to a junior like me? Besides... I still don't know who Aunt Lingyan married in the first place."
"Really want to know?"
It can be seen that Chang Huaijin actually doesn't want her to meddle in these trivial matters.
Since Princess Lingyan wants to stay, then she can stay. They only need to ensure her safety during her stay. As for other things, it is best not to interfere.
But looking at those sparkling eyes, Chang Huaijin really couldn't say no. Seeing Lin Chunhuan nod, he grabbed her hand and said, "Okay, let's go find mother. She should know something."
Lin Chunhuan's eyes lit up, "Really? Can I really ask?"
