Chapter 14
At night.
Song Yunlan, dressed in black, hid behind the peach tree outside Youyang's bedroom window, gazing at the pretty woman sitting in front of the mirror in the inner room.
Her hair is like dark clouds, and her face is like an apricot and her cheeks are like a peach.
Her eyes lit up as she stared curiously at the jewelry, accessories, and rouge and powder on the dressing table.
When she saw something she liked, she would pick it up immediately and ask the maid to help her put it on.
This beautiful little girl seems to have a strong curiosity about every new thing. She is willing to try everything without getting tired of it. The young maid beside her is also happy to make her happy.
A glance at the crowd makes the world look like dust.
No matter how exquisite, dazzling and gorgeous accessories are, they will be overshadowed when worn on her head. In his eyes, she is the most dazzling existence.
She deserves the best.
"Wait for me, I will come and take you away, and I won't let anyone bully you."
......
After this night, the mute servant who always accompanied You Yang, the second young lady of the You family, disappeared, while Song Yunlan, the fifth prince who was the most favored by the emperor in the palace, was found.
The common people and the soldiers stationed at the city gates saw with their own eyes that he appeared outside the city with wounds all over his body, and finally he fainted from exhaustion and was escorted back to the palace by the Palace Guards.
This matter was widely spread outside, but You Yang just ate, drank and played every day as if nothing had happened. Occasionally he would go to Liu Mei to tease her, and it was fun to see her angry but unable to express it.
After a while, Qingyun's injuries were almost healed, and he came back to serve Youyang together with Zifeng.
With You Guolin as her support, people in the mansion no longer dared to offend or mistreat her. Her life became more and more comfortable, and she was finally treated like a legitimate lady.
After dinner, Youyang came to the courtyard, grabbed the rope and sat on the swing, swinging leisurely.
She was not surprised that Song Yunlan suddenly left Youyang. What surprised her was whether he left too early.
In the original storyline, Song Yunlan would have to stay here for more than half a year, and You Miaoyan planned to establish a relationship with him.
When You Yang was framed and imprisoned in the ancestral hall, You Miaoyan pretended to hear You Yang say that he looked down on Song Yunlan, a powerless and poor slave. It seemed that he had good intentions, but in fact he was deliberately smearing You Yang's reputation.
Taking advantage of his amnesia, she pretended that she didn't know Song Yunlan's true identity, and approached him intentionally and established a relationship with him. From then on, the two began to meet secretly behind her back, and their relationship developed rapidly.
But the current situation is that Song Yunlan not only recovered his memory early, but also left early, without even meeting You Miaoyan. How can the plot continue like this?
And that villain Song Yanting has disappeared since that night when he forced her to be his bodyguard.
It’s better not to come to see her, so I can have some free time.
"Miss You."
A voice came from somewhere calling her, which scared Youyang, who was concentrating on figuring out the story.
Youyang got off the swing, followed the sound, and finally found someone above his head.
In the lush tree canopy, a tall man in black tights and a half-mask on his face squatted on a thick branch, looking at her sternly.
When did this person climb up the tree where the swing was hanging? How come she didn't notice it at all?
You Yang touched his chest to adjust his breathing, "If not my brother, who are you? What are you doing in the tree? It's scary to call my name like that, you know?"
The other party didn't expect to be scared. He touched the back of his head helplessly, feeling embarrassed, and the other half of his face that was exposed turned red.
He jumped down from the tree and saw Youyang hiding behind cautiously.
"Don't be afraid. I'm Mu Lin, His Majesty the Xuanwang's man. I'm here to take you to see him."
You Yang saw that he could land silently even after jumping from such a high place, so his lightness skill must be better than hers, otherwise she would not have failed to hear him here.
She saw that his clothes were similar to those of the two guards around Song Yanting, so he should not be lying.
Thinking of Song Yan, she heard that she didn't want to go, so she excused herself, "I don't have time. If I disappear, I will be anxious."
"Don't worry." Mu Lin seemed to have anticipated her evasion. "We, the Xuanyou Guards, will help Miss deal with all the problems. Miss, just come with us."
"Can..."
The excuse was interrupted unexpectedly.
"The master also said that if the young lady still refuses, he will come here in person."
This big villain is here?! Isn't that just to call her to task? She'd better behave herself.
"Go, I'll go now, brother, you lead the way..."
"And you are not allowed to do anything bad to my maid." With the tactics of Song Yunlan's men who cross the river and destroy the bridge, there is no guarantee that the people who hear Song Yan will do the same. You Yang warned him in advance, "Otherwise, you will be the next ones to be bled out by my hands."
"Of course." He was the one who dealt with the nanny's body. He saw the whole process of You Yang's action clearly. The speed of her knife showed that she had good martial arts skills. He admired her but also feared her.
She followed him obediently, and soon the two of them came to the foot of a wall and started staring at each other.
You Yang waited for a long time but he didn't take the next step. He was just staring at her stupidly.
She paused, her big eyes filled with disbelief. She spread her hands, pointed at him, then at herself, then at the wall. Seeing that this piece of wood was still silent, she was forced into a corner and spoke in a somewhat aggressive tone.
"It's you who's talking. Aren't you going to your master's place? Why did you bring me here?"
"Others admire the moon, but we admire the wall?"
"Is there some mechanism on the wall?" You Yang would rather believe that there is a secret passage on the wall. She touched the wall with her hands, and couldn't believe that this guy really brought her to see the wall.
Seeing her intense reaction, Mu Lin finally realized what was happening and said, "You go first and I'll follow closely behind."
"Wait." You Yang raised her hand to stop him from talking, scratching her ears, thinking she had misheard. "Go up?"
"us?"
"Up on this wall?"
"Yes." Mu Lin nodded honestly, "It's faster to go back using Qinggong."
When You Yang knew the truth, her eyes went dark and she almost fainted. She slapped her forehead with her palm.
"Qinggong?!"
You Yang forced the corners of her lips to smile.
Does this wood know what it is saying?
"Qinggong is very tiring, is there a more respectable way to travel?"
"For example, a carriage."
"No."
Mu Lin's decisive statement made You Yang feel hopeless.
The little face drooped, and it took a while for it to accept the reality.
"Qinggong is good, Qinggong is good, I am the best at keeping fit."
"Let's go... Let's go... Don't worry about my life or death..."
"Um."
You Yang worked very hard to catch up, and finally arrived at the legendary King Xuan's palace after half an hour.
Her martial arts skills are good, but her endurance is not good. Who can withstand such a jump?
"arrive."
Ah...finally...
You Yang no longer had the strength to speak.
As soon as she landed, she staggered forward with weak legs. She was so tired that she could hardly open her eyes, and she almost rushed forward with her eyes squinted.
She casually pushed open the door closest to her.
Cang Lin and Cang Xu were guarding the left and right, and wanted to stop them, but when they found out it was You Yang, they were at a loss, neither able to block nor to help, and even drawing their swords was out of the question. After hesitating for a while, they let someone rush in.
The two looked at each other in silence: "......"
Mu Lin followed and reported expressionlessly, "I've brought the person here."
Seeing You Yang's lifeless appearance, Cang Lin asked curiously, "How did it come about?"
Mu Lin: "Qinggong."
"Half an hour."
"Huh..." Cang Xu's legs went weak just by hearing this.
Cang Lin: "No carriage prepared?"
Mu Lin shook his head.
Cang Lin: “…” This Miss You is a good person.
You Yang entered the room with a clear purpose. With only the desire for the chair in her eyes, she rushed straight towards it.
His butt touched the chair, and his upper body automatically fell limply onto the small table beside him, motionless.
It's been a long time since I felt this exhausted.
"Hey, hey, hey, wake up."
"Don't touch me... I'm so tired... I've never seen anyone more of a jerk than Song Yanting..."
"Well, I'm an asshole."
"Then what should you call someone who interrupts an asshole from doing his job?"
You Yang suddenly raised her head with a start. The man who had been cursing was now squatting in front of her. His face was very close to hers, and he was holding a strand of her hair in his other hand.
Her pupils suddenly shrank, and she hurriedly sat up straight and backed away.
Glancing around uncomfortably, You Yang realized that there were five or six people standing in the room.
Except for two who looked familiar, the rest all lowered their heads, almost burying them in the ground, and didn't even dare to look here.
You Yang: “…”
Stinky old man, can you let her live a different life...
She was so embarrassed that her face turned red. She clenched her hands tightly in her sleeves. She also wanted to bury her head in the ground like those people.
Song Yanting smiled and slowly stood up, folding his hands in front of his chest, leaning his waist on the edge of the table, tilting his head and lowering his eyes, staring at Youyang's blushing face with a smile in his eyes. It seemed that the touch was very good.
In a moment, he stood in front of You Yang, freeing the frightened staff who were about to lie down and have close contact with the floor.
"Alright, all of you go down. Wei Lianjingmo, you two stay here."
The others were afraid that if they slowed down they might accidentally see something they shouldn't, so they all ran away in a flash.
Song Jingmo recognized You Yang at a glance and was about to scream in fear, but the scene in his mind of You Yang hitting his lower back and scolding him for being noisy made him cover his mouth again.
He moved slowly and hid behind Wei Lian, looking at You Yang stealthily.
"Tell me, if I'm a bastard, then what are you?" Song Yanting turned around and lazily lowered his eyes to stare at her uneasy eyes.
“I’m a victim!”
It’s better to lose face than to lose the battle. Since you have already lost face, you must always have the upper hand in the argument.
Song Yanting raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "How did a bastard like me hurt you?"
"You ask him!" You Yang pointed angrily at Mu Lin, who was standing like a piece of wood behind Cang Lin and Cang Xu outside the door.
Song Yanting gave Cang Lin a look, and he bowed and replied, "Master, it was my subordinates who didn't make the arrangements. Mu Lin didn't prepare a carriage. He... brought Miss You here with him..."
"Ahahahahaha..." Song Jingmo had been hiding in anger for so long, but when he heard Cang Lin's words, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
